We were renanimg 'main' to 'main_zstd' but then using 'main_libzstd();'
in the main() for test-all.c, causing this:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  test-all.c: In function ‘main’:
  test-all.c:236:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘main_test_libzstd’; did you mean ‘main_test_zstd’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
    main_test_libzstd();
    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    main_test_zstd
  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
  $

I.e. what was supposed to be the fast path feature test was _always_
failing, duh, fix it.

Laura reported that the perf build failed in fedora when we got a glibc
that provides gettid(), which I reproduced using fedora rawhide with the
glibc-devel-2.29.9000-26.fc31.x86_64 package.

Add a feature check to avoid providing a gettid() helper in such
systems.

On a fedora rawhide system with this patch applied we now get:

  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]# grep gettid /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-gettid=1
  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]# cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-gettid.make.output
  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]# ldd /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-gettid.bin

          libc.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f04e0a74000)
          /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f04e0c47000)
  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]# nm /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-gettid.bin | grep -w gettid
                   U gettid@@GLIBC_2.30
  [root@7a5f55352234 perf]#

While on a fedora:29 system:

  [acme@quaco perf]$ grep gettid /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-gettid=0
  [acme@quaco perf]$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-gettid.make.output
  test-gettid.c: In function ‘main’:
  test-gettid.c:8:9: error: implicit declaration of function ‘gettid’; did you mean ‘getgid’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
    return gettid();

<content type='text'>
Implement libzstd feature check, NO_LIBZSTD and LIBZSTD_DIR defines to
override Zstd library sources or disable the feature from the command
line:

  $ make -C tools/perf LIBZSTD_DIR=/path/to/zstd/sources/ clean all
  $ make -C tools/perf NO_LIBZSTD=1 clean all

Auto detection feature status is reported just before compilation
starts.  If your system has some version of the zstd library
preinstalled then the build system finds and uses it during the build.

If you still prefer to compile with some other version of zstd library
you have capability to refer the compilation to that version using
LIBZSTD_DIR define.

<title>perf build: Check what binutils's 'disassembler()' signature to use</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 003ca0fd2286 ("Refactor disassembler selection") in the binutils
repo, which changed the disassembler() function signature, so we must
use the feature test introduced in fb982666e380 ("tools/bpftool: fix
bpftool build with bintutils &gt;= 2.9") to deal with that.

Committer testing:

After adding the missing function call to test-all.c, and:

  FEATURE_CHECK_LDFLAGS-disassembler-four-args = -bfd -lopcodes

And the fallbacks for cases where we need -liberty and sometimes -lz to
tools/perf/Makefile.config, we get:

  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j8' parallel build

  $
  $

The feature detection test-all.bin gets successfully built and linked:

  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.bin
  -rwxrwxr-x. 1 acme acme 2680352 Mar 19 11:07 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.bin
  $ nm /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.bin  | grep -w disassembler
  0000000000061f90 T disassembler
  $

Time to move on to the patches that make use of this disassembler()
routine in binutils's libopcodes.

<title>tools build: Add test-reallocarray.c to test-all.c to fix the build</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a96c03e8cdcf123384319f312d0a08a7a760bb35</id>
<content type='text'>
When a test is in the FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC list in tools/build/Makefile.feature
must be added to tools/build/feature/test-all.c, because the successfull
compilation and linking of that test-all.bin file means that all the
features listed in FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC are present in the system, so we
don't have to go on feature by feature test building them.

Since reallocarray() is expected to be present in modern systems, it has
a place in FEATURE_TESTS_BASIC, so that we speed up the build process
building just that file.

For older systems, such as ubuntu:16.04 (build failure reported by Jin
Yao) debian:8, and for the current flagship RHEL distro, RHEL7, the
build will fail as test-all.bin (without test-reallocarray.c included)
passes but reallocarray() isn't present, making the build fail with:

    CC       /tmp/build/perf/libbpf.o
    MKDIR    /tmp/build/perf/fs/
    CC       /tmp/build/perf/fs/tracing_path.o
    LD       /tmp/build/perf/fd/libapi-in.o
    CC       /tmp/build/perf/bpf.o
  libbpf.c: In function 'bpf_object__add_program':

  libbpf.c:1394:12: error: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Werror=int-conversion]
     new_insn = reallocarray(prog-&gt;insns, new_cnt, sizeof(*insn));
              ^
    CC       /tmp/build/perf/nlattr.o

Even with:

  $ grep reallocarray /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-reallocarray=1
  $

Which ubuntu:16.04.5 LTS doesn't have:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$ head -2 /etc/os-release
  NAME="Ubuntu"
  VERSION="16.04.5 LTS (Xenial Xerus)"
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$ find /usr/include/ -name "*.h" | xargs grep -w reallocarray
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$

Fix it by including it to test-all.c, which ends up forcing the
individual tests to be triggered and for the build process to notice
that indeed reallocarray() is not there:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  In file included from test-all.c:178:0:
  test-reallocarray.c: In function 'main_test_reallocarray':
  test-reallocarray.c:7:11: error: implicit declaration of function 'reallocarray' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
    return !!reallocarray(NULL, 1, 1);
             ^
  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/$

That is the only test that is failing on Ubuntu 16.03.5 LTS, so all
tests are forced:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/tmp/build/perf/feature$ ls -lSr *.make.output
  &lt;SNIP successful tests&gt;
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder   0 Feb 14 15:00 test-dwarf.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder   0 Feb 14 14:16 test-cplus-demangle.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder   0 Feb 14 15:00 test-bpf.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder   0 Feb 14 15:00 test-backtrace.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 104 Feb 14 15:00 test-bionic.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 107 Feb 14 15:00 test-libunwind-x86.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 115 Feb 14 15:00 test-libunwind-aarch64.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 122 Feb 14 15:00 test-libbabeltrace.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 254 Feb 14 15:00 test-reallocarray.make.output
  -rw-r--r--. 1 perfbuilder perfbuilder 312 Feb 14 15:00 test-all.make.output
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/tmp/build/perf/feature$

And that reallocarray() one shows:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/tmp/build/perf/feature$ cat test-reallocarray.make.output
  test-reallocarray.c: In function 'main':
  test-reallocarray.c:7:11: error: implicit declaration of function 'reallocarray' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
    return !!reallocarray(NULL, 1, 1);
             ^
  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:/tmp/build/perf/feature$

Which now generates the expected result:

  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:~$ grep reallocarray /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-reallocarray=0
  perfbuilder@38a153a1bba8:~$

The fallback mechanism kicks in and libbpf and perf are again buildable
in systems without reallocarray():

<title>perf coresight: Do not test for libopencsd by default</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1c3b28fd7ae80c8f6bf1a09e1848e20a953c9ce4</id>
<content type='text'>
Since it is not yet that generally available, avoid testing for the
presence of libcoresight in the fast path test-all.bin feature test.

  # dnf search opencsd
  No matches found.
  # dnf search OpenCSD
  No matches found.
  # cat /etc/fedora-release
  Fedora release 29 (Twenty Nine)
  #

I.e. right now, in my system test-all.bin is failing all the time since
Fedora29 doesn't have libopencsd available:

  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  In file included from test-all.c:174:
  test-libopencsd.c:2:10: fatal error: opencsd/c_api/opencsd_c_api.h: No such file or directory
   #include &lt;opencsd/c_api/opencsd_c_api.h&gt;
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  compilation terminated.

See:

  6ab2b762befd ("perf build: Disable libbabeltrace check by default")

For the rationale, as soon as libopencsd becomes more generally packaged
and available, we do the same thing we did with babeltrace, enabling it
by default, as done in:

  24787afbcd01 ("perf tools: Enable LIBBABELTRACE by default")

For now, to explicitely ask for opencsd, make sure you have it installed
and use:

   make -C tools/perf CORESIGHT=1

The feature test output will be there as an empty file:

  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libopencsd.make.output

Because the binary used for the feature check was successfully built:

  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libopencsd.bin

	libm.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007fb8e628d000)
	libgcc_s.so.1 =&gt; /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007fb8e6272000)
	/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fb8e6828000)
  $

And the resulting perf binary will be linked with it:

  -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme 0 Feb 12 14:49 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-libopencsd.make.output
  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep opencsd
	libopencsd_c_api.so.0 =&gt; /lib64/libopencsd_c_api.so.0 (0x00007fd43097f000)
	libopencsd.so.0 =&gt; /lib64/libopencsd.so.0 (0x00007fd4308f8000)
  $

To make sure this gets built before pushing things upstream I have a
ubuntu:19.04-x-arm64 container that has:

  [root@quaco x-arm64]# grep CORESIGHT Dockerfile
  ENV EXTRA_MAKE_ARGS=CORESIGHT=1
  [root@quaco x-arm64]#

So that I always build with libopencsd before pushing things upstream.

A new 'perf bench epoll' will use this, and to disable it for older
systems, add a feature test for this API.

This is just a simple program that if successfully compiled, means that
the feature is present, at least at the library level, in a build that
sets the output directory to /tmp/build/perf (using O=/tmp/build/perf),
we end up with:

  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd*
  -rwxrwxr-x. 1 acme acme 8176 Nov 21 15:58 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd.bin
  -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme  588 Nov 21 15:58 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd.d
  -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme    0 Nov 21 15:58 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd.make.output
  $ ldd /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd.bin
	  linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff3bf3f000)
	  libc.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007fa984061000)
	  /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fa984417000)
  $ grep eventfd -A 2 -B 2 /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-dwarf=1
  feature-dwarf_getlocations=1
  feature-eventfd=1
  feature-fortify-source=1
  feature-sync-compare-and-swap=1
  $

The main thing here is that in the end we'll have -DHAVE_EVENTFD in
CFLAGS, and then the 'perf bench' entry needing that API can be
selectively pruned.

As the namespace support code will use this, which is not available in
some non _GNU_SOURCE libraries such as Android's bionic used in my
container build tests (r12b and r15c at the moment).

The Open CoreSight Decoding Library (openCSD) is a free and open library
to decode traces collected by the CoreSight hardware infrastructure.

This patch adds the required mechanic to recognise the presence of the
openCSD library on a system and set up miscellaneous flags to be used in
the compilation of the trace decoding feature.
