3928ddbe99 perf record: Fix unhandled io return value
Building latest perfcounter fails on the following error:

 builtin-record.c: In function ‘create_counter’:
 builtin-record.c:451: erreur: ignoring return value of ‘read’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
 make: *** [builtin-record.o] Erreur 1

Just check if we successfully read the perf file descriptor.

76c64c5e4c perf record: Fix filemap pathname parsing in /proc/pid/maps
Looking backward for the first space from the end of a line in
/proc/pid/maps does not find the start of the pathname of the mapped
file if it contains a space.

Since the only slashes we have in this file occur in the (absolute!)
pathname column of file mappings, looking for the first slash in a
line is a safe method to find the name.

eadc84cc01 perfcounter: Handle some IO return values
Building perfcounter tools raises the following warnings:

 builtin-record.c: In function ‘atexit_header’:
 builtin-record.c:464: erreur: ignoring return value of ‘pwrite’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
 builtin-record.c: In function ‘__cmd_record’:
 builtin-record.c:503: erreur: ignoring return value of ‘read’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result

 builtin-report.c: In function ‘__cmd_report’:
 builtin-report.c:1403: erreur: ignoring return value of ‘read’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result

This patch handles these IO return values.

9cffa8d533 perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitions
On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than
unsigned long long.  This causes compiler warnings every time we
print a __u64 value with %Lx.

Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long
long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long.
For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8.  These
definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions
are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h.

The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8}
to remove the "__".  The other changes are:

* Create types.h
* Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h
* Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile
* Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table()
  to kill two remaining warnings.

613d860229 perf record: Fix fast task-exit race
Recording with -a (or with -p) can race with tasks going away:

   couldn't open /proc/8440/maps

Causing an early exit() and no recording done.

Do not abort the recording session - instead just skip that task.

Also, only print the warnings under -v.

3efa1cc99e perf record/report: Add call graph / call chain profiling
Add the first steps of call-graph profiling:

 - add the -c (--call-graph) option to perf record
 - parse the call-graph record and printout out under -D (--dump-trace)

The call-graph data is not put into the histogram yet, but it
can be seen that it's being processed correctly:

0x3ce0 [0x38]: event: 35
.
. ... raw event: size 56 bytes

bbd36e5e6a perf record: Explicity program a default counter
Up until now record has worked on the assumption that type=0, config=0
was a suitable configuration - which it is. Lets make this a little more
explicit and more readable via the use of proper symbols.

[ Impact: cleanup ]

729ff5e2aa perf_counter tools: Clean up u64 usage
A build error slipped in:

 builtin-report.c: In function ‘hist_entry__fprintf’:
 builtin-report.c:711: error: format ‘%12d’ expects type ‘int’, but argument 3 has type ‘uint64_t’

Because we got a bit sloppy with those types. uint64_t really sucks,
because there's no printf format for it. So standardize on __u64
instead - for all types that go to or come from the ABI (which is __u64),
or for values that need to be large enough even on 32-bit.

f7b7c26e01 perf_counter tools: Propagate signals properly
Currently report and stat catch SIGINT (and others) without altering
their exit state. This means that things like:

   while :; do perf stat ./foo ; done

Loops become hard-to-interrupt, because bash never sees perf terminate
due to interruption. Fix this.

3da297a60f perf record: Fall back to cpu-clock-ticks if no PMU
On architectures/CPUs without PMU support but with perfcounters
enabled 'perf record' currently fails because it cannot create a
cycle based hw-perfcounter.

Fall back to the cpu-clock-tick sw-perfcounter in this case, which
is hrtimer based and will always work (as long as perfcounters
are enabled).
