I found that it failed to load a binary using --symfs option. Say I
have a binary in /home/user/prog/xxx and a perf data file with it. If I
move them to a different machine and use --symfs, it tries to find the
binary in some locations under symfs using dso__read_binary_type_filename(),
but not the last one.
${symfs}/usr/lib/debug/home/user/prog/xxx.debug
${symfs}/usr/lib/debug/home/user/prog/xxx
${symfs}/home/user/prog/.debug/xxx
/home/user/prog/xxx
It should check ${symfs}/home/usr/prog/xxx. Let's fix it.

The --summary-mode option will select how to show the syscall summary at
the end. By default, it'll show the summary for each thread and it's
the same as if --summary-mode=thread is passed.
The other option is to show total summary, which is --summary-mode=total.
I'd like to have this instead of a separate option like --total-summary
because we may want to add a new summary mode (by cgroup) later.

It was using a RBtree-based int-list as a hash and a custom resort
logic for that. As we have hashmap, let's convert to it and add a
custom sort function for the hashmap entries using an array. It
should be faster and more light-weighted. It's also to prepare
supporting system-wide syscall stats.
No functional changes intended.

Some topdown related metrics may fail on hybrid machines.
$ perf stat -M tma_frontend_bound
Cannot resolve IDs for tma_frontend_bound:
cpu_atom@TOPDOWN_FE_BOUND.ALL@ / (8 * cpu_atom@CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.CORE@)
In the find_tool_events(), the tool_pmu__event_to_str() is used to
compare the tool_events. It only checks the event name, no PMU or arch.
So the tool_events[TOOL_PMU__EVENT_SLOTS] is set to true, because the
p-core Topdown metrics has "slots" event.
The tool_events is shared. So when parsing the e-core metrics, the
"slots" is automatically added.
The "slots" event as a tool event should only be available on arm64. It
has a different meaning on X86. The tool_pmu__skip_event() intends
handle the case. Apply it for tool_pmu__event_to_str() as well.
There is a lack of sanity check in the expr__get_id(). Add the check.

The existing logic would disable uniquification on an evlist or enable
it per evsel, this is unfortunate as uniquification is most needed
when events have the same name and so the whole evlist must be
considered. Change the initial disable uniquify on an evlist
processing to also set a needs_uniquify flag, for cases like the
matching event names. This must be done as an initial pass as
uniquification of an event name will change the behavior of the
check. Keep the per counter uniquification but now only uniquify event
names when the needs_uniquify flag is set.
Before this change a hwmon like temp1 wouldn't be uniquified and
afterwards it will (ie the PMU is added to the temp1 event's name).

Counter merging was added in commit 942c559339 ("perf stat: Add
perf_stat_merge_counters()"), however, it merges events with the same
name on different PMUs regardless of whether the different PMUs are
actually of the same type (ie they differ only in the suffix on the
PMU). For hwmon events there may be a temp1 event on every PMU, but
the PMU names are all unique and don't differ just by a suffix. The
merging is over eager and will merge all the hwmon counters together
meaning an aggregated and very large temp1 value is shown. The same
would be true for say cache events and memory controller events where
the PMUs differ but the event names are the same.
Fix the problem by correctly saying two PMUs alias when they differ
only by suffix.
Note, there is an overlap with evsel's merged_stat with aggregation
and the evsel's metric_leader where aggregation happens for metrics.

Rather than scanning core or all PMUs, allow pmu_read_sysfs to read
some combination of core, other, hwmon and tool PMUs. The PMUs that
should be read and are already read are held as bitmaps. It is known
that a "hwmon_" prefix is necessary for a hwmon PMU's name, similarly
with "tool", so only scan those PMUs in situations the PMU name or the
PMU's type number make sense to.
The number of openat system calls reduces from 276 to 98 for a hwmon
event. The number of openats for regular perf events isn't changed.

s390 is big endian and Intel is little endian architecture.

type is set to HWMON_TYPE_TEMP (which is 10).

Fix this and export the structure/union hwmon_pmu_event_key
so the test shares the same implementation as the event parsing
functions for union and bit fields. This should avoid
endianess issues on all platforms.

Currently, running "perf script flamegraph -a -F 99 sleep 1" should
produce flamegraph.html containing the flamegraph. Howevever, it gives a
segmentation fault.
This is caused because the flamegraph.py script is
supposed to take as input the output of "perf record", which should be
in stdin. This would require passing "-i -" to flamegraph.py. However,
the "flamegraph-report" script causes "perf script" command to take the
"-i -" option instead of flamegraph.py, which causes no problem for
"perf script", but causes a seg fault since flamegraph.py has no input
file. To fix this I added the "-i -" option directly to the
flamegraph-report script to ensure flamegraph.py gets input from stdin.

When not running as root and with higher perf event paranoia values
the perf record forked by TPEBS can fail to attach to the process. Skip
the test in these scenarios.
Intel TPEBS test skips on non-Intel CPUs. On Intel CPUs under a
hypervisor the cache-misses event may not be present or precise. Skip
the test under this condition.
Refactor the output code to be placed in a file so that on a signal
the file can be dumped. This was necessary to catch the issue above as
the failing perf record command would fail without output.
