Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

In current xyarray code, xyarray__max_x() returns max_y, and xyarray__max_y()
returns max_x.
It's confusing and for code logic it looks not correct.
Error happens when closing evsel fd. Let's see this scenario:
1. Allocate an fd (pseudo-code)
perf_evsel__alloc_fd(struct perf_evsel *evsel, int ncpus, int nthreads)
{
evsel->fd = xyarray__new(ncpus, nthreads, sizeof(int));
}
xyarray__new(int xlen, int ylen, size_t entry_size)
{
size_t row_size = ylen * entry_size;
struct xyarray *xy = zalloc(sizeof(*xy) + xlen * row_size);
xy->entry_size = entry_size;
xy->row_size = row_size;
xy->entries = xlen * ylen;
xy->max_x = xlen;
xy->max_y = ylen;
......
}
So max_x is ncpus, max_y is nthreads and row_size = nthreads * 4.
2. Use perf syscall and get the fd
int perf_evsel__open(struct perf_evsel *evsel, struct cpu_map *cpus,
struct thread_map *threads)
{
for (cpu = 0; cpu < cpus->nr; cpu++) {
for (thread = 0; thread < nthreads; thread++) {
int fd, group_fd;
fd = sys_perf_event_open(&evsel->attr, pid, cpus->map[cpu],
group_fd, flags);
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = fd;
}
}
static inline void *xyarray__entry(struct xyarray *xy, int x, int y)
{
return &xy->contents[x * xy->row_size + y * xy->entry_size];
}
These codes don't have issues. The issue happens in the closing of fd.
3. Close fd.
void perf_evsel__close_fd(struct perf_evsel *evsel)
{
int cpu, thread;
for (cpu = 0; cpu < xyarray__max_x(evsel->fd); cpu++)
for (thread = 0; thread < xyarray__max_y(evsel->fd); ++thread) {
close(FD(evsel, cpu, thread));
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = -1;
}
}
Since xyarray__max_x() returns max_y (nthreads) and xyarry__max_y()
returns max_x (ncpus), so above code is actually to be:
for (cpu = 0; cpu < nthreads; cpu++)
for (thread = 0; thread < ncpus; ++thread) {
close(FD(evsel, cpu, thread));
FD(evsel, cpu, thread) = -1;
}
It's not correct!
This change is introduced by "475fb533fb7d" ("perf evsel: Fix buffer overflow
while freeing events")
This fix is to let xyarray__max_x() return max_x (ncpus) and
let xyarry__max_y() return max_y (nthreads)
Committer note:
This was also fixed by Ravi Bangoria, who provided the same patch,
noticing the problem with 'perf record':

because the buildid_id__mark_dso_hit_ops lacks the namespace event

Currently, perf record is broken on arm/arm64 systems when the PMU is
specified explicitly as part of the event, e.g.
$ ./perf record -e armv8_cortex_a53/cpu_cycles/u true
In such cases, perf record fails to open events unless
perf_event_paranoid is set to -1, even if the PMU in question supports
mode exclusion. Further, even when perf_event_paranoid is toggled, no
samples are recorded.
This is an unintended side effect of commit:
e3ba76deef23064f ("perf tools: Force uncore events to system wide monitoring)
... which assumes that if a PMU has an associated cpu_map, it is an
uncore PMU, and forces events for such PMUs to be system-wide.
This is not true for arm/arm64 systems, which can have heterogeneous
CPUs. To account for this, multiple CPU PMUs are exposed, each with a
"cpus" field under sysfs, which the perf tool parses into a cpu_map. ARM
PMUs do not have a "cpumask" file, and only have a "cpus" file. For the
gory details as to why, see commit:
7e3fcffe95544010 ("perf pmu: Support alternative sysfs cpumask")
Given all of this, we can instead identify uncore PMUs by explicitly
checking for a "cpumask" file, and restore arm/arm64 PMU support back to
a working state. This patch does so, adding a new perf_pmu::is_uncore
field, and splitting the existing cpumask parsing so that it can be
reused.

Two functions from different binaries can have same start address. Thus,
comparing only start address in match_chain() leads to inconsistent

With --call-graph option, perf report can display call chains using
type, min percent threshold, optional print limit and order. And the
default call-graph parameter is 'graph,0.5,caller,function,percent'.
Before this patch, 'perf report --call-graph' shows incorrect debug
messages as below:
# perf report --call-graph
Invalid callchain mode: 0.5
Invalid callchain order: 0.5
Invalid callchain sort key: 0.5
Invalid callchain config key: 0.5
Invalid callchain mode: caller
Invalid callchain mode: function
Invalid callchain order: function
Invalid callchain mode: percent
Invalid callchain order: percent
Invalid callchain sort key: percent
That is because in function __parse_callchain_report_opt(),each field of
the call-graph parameter is passed to parse_callchain_{mode,order,
sort_key,value} in turn until it meets the matching value.
For example, the order field "caller" is passed to
parse_callchain_mode() firstly and obviously it doesn't match any mode
field. Therefore parse_callchain_mode() will shows the debug message
"Invalid callchain mode: caller", which could confuse users.
The patch fixes this issue by moving the warning out of the function
parse_callchain_{mode,order,sort_key,value}.

Yet another fix for probing the max attr.precise_ip setting: it is not
enough settting attr.exclude_kernel for !root users, as they _can_
profile the kernel if the kernel.perf_event_paranoid sysctl is set to
-1, so check that as well.
Testing it:
As non root:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = 2
$ perf record sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:uppp: ..., exclude_kernel: 1, ... precise_ip: 3, ...
Now as non-root, but with kernel.perf_event_paranoid set set to the
most permissive value, -1:
$ sysctl kernel.perf_event_paranoid
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1
$ perf record sleep 1
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:ppp: ..., exclude_kernel: 0, ... precise_ip: 3, ...
$
I.e. non-root, default kernel.perf_event_paranoid: :uppp modifier = not allowed to sample the kernel,
non-root, most permissible kernel.perf_event_paranoid: :ppp = allowed to sample the kernel.
In both cases, use the highest available precision: attr.precise_ip = 3.

Peter reported that when he explicitely asked for multiple events with
the same name on the command line it got coalesced into just one line,
i.e.:
# perf stat -e cycles -e cycles -e cycles usleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':
3,269,652 cycles
0.000884123 seconds time elapsed
#
And while there is the --no-merges option to disable that auto-merging,
this is a blunt change in behaviour for such explicit request, so change
the code so that this auto merging is done only when handling the multi
PMU aliases with the same name that introduced this coalescing,
restoring the previous behaviour for the explicit case:
# perf stat -e cycles -e cycles -e cycles usleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':
1,472,837 cycles
1,472,837 cycles
1,472,837 cycles
0.001764870 seconds time elapsed

With two new methods, one to find the first match, returning its syscall
id and its index in whatever internal database it keeps the syscall
into, then one to find the next match, if any.
Implemented only on arches where we actually read the syscall table from
the kernel sources, i.e. x86-64 for now, all the others use the libaudit
method for which this returns -1, i.e. just stubs were added, with the
actual implementation using whatever libaudit functions for matching
that may be available.

The branch history code has a loop detection function. With this, we can
get the number of iterations by calculating the removed loops.
While it would be nice for knowing the average cycles of iterations.
This patch adds up the cycles in branch entries of removed loops and
save the result to the next branch entry (e.g. branch entry A).
Finally it will display the iteration number and average cycles at the
"from" of branch entry A.
For example:
perf record -g -j any,save_type ./div
perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio
--22.63%--main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M)
compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2 iter:173115 avg_cycles:2)

On x86, the plt header size is as same as the plt entry size, and can be
identified from shdr's sh_entsize of the plt.
But we can't assume that the sh_entsize of the plt shdr is always the
plt entry size in all architecture, and the plt header size may be not
as same as the plt entry size in some architecure.
On ARM, the plt header size is 20 bytes and the plt entry size is 12
bytes (don't consider the FOUR_WORD_PLT case) that refer to the binutils
implementation. The plt section is as follows:
Disassembly of section .plt:
000004a0 <__cxa_finalize@plt-0x14>:
4a0: e52de004 push {lr} ; (str lr, [sp, #-4]!)

4c8: e5bcf41c ldr pc, [ip, #1052]! ; 0x41c
On AARCH64, the plt header size is 32 bytes and the plt entry size is 16
bytes. The plt section is as follows:
Disassembly of section .plt:
0000000000000560 <__cxa_finalize@plt-0x20>:

NOTES:
In addition to ARM and AARCH64, other architectures, such as
s390/alpha/mips/parisc/poperpc/sh/sparc/xtensa also need to consider
this issue.

The commit 9aaf5a5f479b ("perf probe: Check kprobes blacklist when
adding new events"), 'perf probe' supports checking the blacklist of the
fuctions which can not be probed. But the checking condition is wrong,
that the end_addr of the symbol which is the start_addr of the next
symbol can't be included.
Committer notes:
IOW make it match its kernel counterpart in kernel/kprobes.c:
bool within_kprobe_blacklist(unsigned long addr)
Each entry have as its end address not its end address, but the first
address _outside_ that symbol, which for related functions, is the first
address of the next symbol, like these from kernel/trace/trace_probe.c:
0xffffffffbd198df0-0xffffffffbd198e40 print_type_u8
0xffffffffbd198e40-0xffffffffbd198e90 print_type_u16
0xffffffffbd198e90-0xffffffffbd198ee0 print_type_u32
0xffffffffbd198ee0-0xffffffffbd198f30 print_type_u64
0xffffffffbd198f30-0xffffffffbd198f80 print_type_s8
0xffffffffbd198f80-0xffffffffbd198fd0 print_type_s16
0xffffffffbd198fd0-0xffffffffbd199020 print_type_s32
0xffffffffbd199020-0xffffffffbd199070 print_type_s64
0xffffffffbd199070-0xffffffffbd1990c0 print_type_x8
0xffffffffbd1990c0-0xffffffffbd199110 print_type_x16
0xffffffffbd199110-0xffffffffbd199160 print_type_x32
0xffffffffbd199160-0xffffffffbd1991b0 print_type_x64
But not always:
0xffffffffbd1997b0-0xffffffffbd1997c0 fetch_kernel_stack_address (kernel/trace/trace_probe.c)
0xffffffffbd1c57f0-0xffffffffbd1c58b0 __context_tracking_enter (kernel/context_tracking.c)

Enhance the expression parser for more complex metric formulas.
- Support python style IF ELSE operators
- Add an #SMT_On magic variable for formulas that depend on the SMT
status.
Example: 4 *( CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD_ANY / 2 ) if #SMT_on else cycles
- Support MIN/MAX operations
Example: min(1 , IDQ.MITE_UOPS / ( UPI * 16 * ( ICACHE.HIT + ICACHE.MISSES ) / 4.0 ) )
This is useful to fix up problems caused by multiplexing.
- Support | & ^ operators
- Minor cleanups and fixes
- Support an \ escape for operators. This allows to specify event names
like c2-residency
- Support @ as an alternative for / to be able to specify pmus without
conflicts with operators (like msr/tsc/ as msr@tsc@)
Example: (cstate_core@c3\\-residency@ / msr@tsc@) * 100

perf stat -e cpu/uops_executed.core,cmask=1/
would be detected as a BPF source event because the .c matches the .c
source BPF pattern.
v2:
Originally I tried to use lex lookahead, but it doesn't seem to work.
This now extends the BPF pattern to match longer events, but then does
an extra check in the C code to reject BPF matches that do not end with
.c/.o/.obj
This uses REJECT, which makes the flex scanner slower, but that
shouldn't be a big problem for the perf events.
Committer testing:
# perf trace -e write -e /home/acme/bpf/tracepoint.c cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null
0.000 ( 0.006 ms): cat/18485 write(fd: 1, buf: 0x7f59eebe1000, count: 3494 ) ...
0.006 ( ): raw_syscalls:sys_enter:NR 1 (1, 7f59eebe1000, da6, 22, 7f59eebe0010, 0))
0.008 ( ): perf_bpf_probe:_write:(ffffffff9626b2c0))
0.000 ( 0.010 ms): cat/18485 ... [continued]: write()) = 3494
#
It continues doing what was expected, i.e. identifying
/home/acme/bpf/tracepoint.c as a BPF event and activates the clang
machinery to build an eBPF object and then uses sys_bpf() to hook it up
to the raw_syscalls:sys_enter tracepoint, etc.
Andi forgot to add Wang to the CC list, fix it.

The event is allocated with cpus == 1, but freed with cpus == real number
When the evsel close function walks the file descriptors it exceeds the
fd xyarray boundaries and reads random memory.
v2:
Now that xyarrays save their original dimensions we can use these to
iterate the two dimensional fd arrays. Fix some users (close, ioctl) in
evsel.c to use these fields directly. This allows simplifying the code
and dropping quite a few function arguments. Adjust all callers by
removing the unneeded arguments.
The actual perf event reading still uses the original values from the
evsel list.

Andi reported problems when parse errors were detected with vendor
events (json), because in the yyparse/parse_events_parse function we
dereferenced the _data parameter to two different structs, with
different layouts, which ended up making parse_events_evlist->error to
point to random stack addresses.
Fix it by making _data to always be struct parse_events_state, changing
the only place where 'struct parse_events_term' was used in
parse_events.y.

Those are just casting a void pointer to a struct to then pass them to

Perf's BPF prologue generator unconditionally fetches 8 bytes for
function parameters, which causes problems on big endian machines. Thomas
gives a detailed analysis for this problem:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/968ebda5-abe4-8830-8d69-49f62529d151@linux.vnet.ibm.com
---- 8< ----
I investigated perf test BPF for s390x and have a question regarding
the 38.3 subtest (bpf-prologue test) which fails on s390x.
When I turn on trace_printk in tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
I see this output in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace:
[root@s8360047 perf]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

There are 3 parameters the eBPF program tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
accesses: f_mode (member of struct file at offset 140) offset and orig. They
are parameters of the lseek() system call triggered in this test case in
function llseek_loop().
What is really strange is the value of f_mode. It is an 8 byte value, whereas
in the probe event it is defined as a 4 byte value. The lower 4 bytes are all
zero and do not belong to member f_mode. The correct value should be 2001d for
read-only and 6001f for read-write open mode.
Here is the output of the 'perf test -vv bpf' trace:

The 'perf report' tool does not display the addresses of kernel module
symbols correctly.
For example symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd in kernel module qeth.ko has this
relative address for function qeth_send_ipa_cmd():
[root@s8360047 linux]# nm -g drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko | fgrep send_ipa_cmd
0000000000013088 T qeth_send_ipa_cmd
The module is loaded at address:
[root@s8360047 linux]# cat /sys/module/qeth/sections/.text
0x000003ff80296d20
[root@s8360047 linux]#
This should result in a start address of:
0x13088 + 0x3ff80296d20 = 0x3ff802a9da8
Using crash to verify the address on a live system:
[root@s8360046 linux]# crash vmlinux
crash 7.1.9++

crash>
Now perf report displays the address of symbol qeth_send_ipa_cmd:
symbol__new:
qeth_send_ipa_cmd 0x130f0-0x132ce
There is a difference of 0x68 between the entry in the symbol table (see
nm command above) and perf. The difference is from the offset the .text
segment of qeth.ko:
[root@s8360047 perf]# readelf -a drivers/s390/net/qeth.ko
Section Headers:

000000000001c8a0 0000000000000000 AX 0 0 8
As seen the .text segment has an offset of 0x68 with start address 0x0.
Therefore 0x68 is added to the address of qeth_send_ipa_cmd and thus
0x13088 + 0x68 = 0x130f0 is displayed.
This is wrong, perf report needs to display the start address of symbol
qeth_send_ipa_cmd at 0x13088 + qeth.ko.text section start address.
The qeth.ko module .text start address is available in the qeth.ko DSO
map. Just identify the kernel module symbols and correct the addresses.
With the fix I see this correct address for symbol: symbol__new:
qeth_send_ipa_cmd 0x3ff802a9da8-0x3ff802a9f86

During work on perf report for s390 I ran into the following issue:
0 0x318 [0x78]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0:
[0x3ff804d6990(0xfffffc007fb2966f) @ 0]:
x /lib/modules/4.12.0perf1+/kernel/drivers/s390/net/qeth_l2.ko
This is a PERF_RECORD_MMAP entry of the perf.data file with an invalid
module size for qeth_l2.ko (the s390 ethernet device driver).
Even a mainframe does not have 0xfffffc007fb2966f bytes of main memory.
It turned out that this wrong size is created by the perf record
command. What happens is this function call sequence from
__cmd_record():
perf_session__new():
perf_session__create_kernel_maps():
machine__create_kernel_maps():
machine__create_modules(): Creates map for all loaded kernel modules.
modules__parse(): Reads /proc/modules and extracts module name and
load address (1st and last column)
machine__create_module(): Called for every module found in /proc/modules.
Creates a new map for every module found and enters
module name and start address into the map. Since the
module end address is unknown it is set to zero.
This ends up with a kernel module map list sorted by module start
addresses. All module end addresses are zero.
Last machine__create_kernel_maps() calls function map_groups__fixup_end().
This function iterates through the maps and assigns each map entry's
end address the successor map entry start address. The last entry of the
map group has no successor, so ~0 is used as end to consume the remaining
memory.
Later __cmd_record calls function record__synthesize() which in turn calls
perf_event__synthesize_kernel_mmap() and perf_event__synthesize_modules()
to create PERF_REPORT_MMAP entries into the perf.data file.
On s390 this results in the last module qeth_l2.ko
(which has highest start address, see module table:
[root@s8360047 perf]# cat /proc/modules
qeth_l2 86016 1 - Live 0x000003ff804d6000
qeth 266240 1 qeth_l2, Live 0x000003ff80296000
ccwgroup 24576 1 qeth, Live 0x000003ff80218000
vmur 36864 0 - Live 0x000003ff80182000
qdio 143360 2 qeth_l2,qeth, Live 0x000003ff80002000
[root@s8360047 perf]# )
to be the last entry and its map has an end address of ~0.
When the PERF_RECORD_MMAP entry is created for kernel module qeth_l2.ko
its start address and length is written. The length is calculated in line:
event->mmap.len = pos->end - pos->start;
and results in 0xffffffffffffffff - 0x3ff804d6990(*) = 0xfffffc007fb2966f
(*) On s390 the module start address is actually determined by a __weak function
named arch__fix_module_text_start() in machine__create_module().
I think this improvable. We can use the module size (2nd column of /proc/modules)
to get each loaded kernel module size and calculate its end address.
Only for map entries which do not have a valid end address (end is still zero)
we can use the heuristic we have now, that is use successor start address or ~0.

The stat shadow saved values rbtree is indexed by a pointer. Fix the
comparison function:
- We cannot return a pointer delta as an int because that loses bits on
64bit.
- Doing pointer arithmetic on the struct pointer only works if the
objects are spaced by the multiple of the object size, which is not
guaranteed for individual malloc'ed object
Replace it with a proper comparison.
This fixes various problems with values not being found.

This adds the mmap and mmap2 events to the CTF trace obtained from perf
data.
These events will allow CTF trace visualization tools like Trace Compass
to automatically resolve the symbols of the callchain to the
corresponding function or origin library.
To include those events, one needs to convert with the --all option.
Here follows an output of babeltrace:
$ sudo perf data convert --all --to-ctf myctftrace
$ babeltrace ./myctftrace
[19:00:00.000000000] (+0.000000000) perf_mmap2: { cpu_id = 0 },
{ pid = 638, tid = 638, start = 0x7F54AE39E000, filename =
"/usr/lib/ld-2.25.so" }
[19:00:00.000000000] (+0.000000000) perf_mmap2: { cpu_id = 0 }, { pid =

The field perf_callchain, if available, is added to the sampling events
during the CTF conversion. It is an array of u64 values. The
perf_callchain_size field contains the size of the array.
It will allow the analysis of sampling data in trace visualization tools
like Trace Compass. Possible analyses with those data: dynamic
flamegraphs, correlation with other tracing data like a userspace trace.
Here follows a babeltrace CTF output of a trace with callchain:
$ babeltrace ./myctftrace
