perf tools: Do parameter validation earlier on fetch_kernel_version()

2017-06-20T15:19:16+00:00

While trying to reduce util.[ch] I noticed that fetch_kernel_version()
and fetch_ubuntu_kernel_version() do lots of operations only to check if
they are needed, i.e. it checks if the pointer where to return the
kernel version is NULL only after obtaining the kernel version from
/proc/version_signature or by parsing the results from uname().

Do it earlier not to confuse people reading this code in the future :-)

perf evsel: Adopt find_process()

2017-06-20T15:05:38+00:00

And make it static, nobody else uses it, if we ever need it in more
places we can carve a new source file for process related methods,
for now lets reduce util.{c,h} a tad more.

perf units: Move parse_tag_value() to units.[ch]

2017-04-26T18:40:31+00:00

Its basically to do units handling, so move to a more appropriately
named object.

Just one more step into splitting util.[ch] to reduce the includes hell.

perf tools: Remove string.h, unistd.h and sys/stat.h from util.h

2017-04-24T16:43:33+00:00

Not needed in this header, added to the places that need FILE,
putchar(), access() and a few other prototypes.

perf callchain: Move callchain specific routines from util.[ch]

2017-04-24T16:43:26+00:00

Where they belong, no point in leaving those in the generic "util"
files.

Two more out of util.h.

perf kvm: Make function only used by 'perf kvm' static

2017-04-24T15:33:26+00:00

No need to have this polluting util.h, it was polluted enough already.

perf tools: Move timestamp routines from util.h to time-utils.h

2017-04-20T16:22:44+00:00

We already have a header for time utilities, so use it.

Out of util.h, to disentangle it a bit more.
