<id>urn:sha1:7eec00a74720d35b6d89505350e5b08ecef376c0</id>
<content type='text'>
After copying Arm64's perf archive with object files and perf.data file
to x86 laptop, the x86's perf kernel symbol resolution fails.  It
outputs 'unknown' for all symbols parsing.

This issue is root caused by the function elf__needs_adjust_symbols(),
x86 perf tool uses one weak version, Arm64 (and powerpc) has rewritten
their own version.  elf__needs_adjust_symbols() decides if need to parse
symbols with the relative offset address; but x86 building uses the weak
function which misses to check for the elf type 'ET_DYN', so that it
cannot parse symbols in Arm DSOs due to the wrong result from
elf__needs_adjust_symbols().

The DSO parsing should not depend on any specific architecture perf
building; e.g. x86 perf tool can parse Arm and Arm64 DSOs, vice versa.
And confirmed by Naveen N. Rao that powerpc64 kernels are not being
built as ET_DYN anymore and change to ET_EXEC.

This patch removes the arch specific functions for Arm64 and powerpc and
changes elf__needs_adjust_symbols() as a common function.

In the common elf__needs_adjust_symbols(), it checks an extra condition
'ET_DYN' for elf header type.  With this fixing, the Arm64 DSO can be
parsed properly with x86's perf tool.

Before:

  # perf script
  main 3258 1 branches:                0 [unknown] ([unknown]) =&gt; ffff800010c4665c [unknown] ([kernel.kallsyms])

After:

v3: Changed to check for ET_DYN across all architectures.

v2: Fixed Arm64 and powerpc native building.

This is currently working due to extra include paths in the build.

Committer testing:

  $ cd tools/include/uapi/asm/

Before this patch:

  $ ls -la ../../arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
  ls: cannot access '../../arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/errno.h': No such file or directory
  $

After this patch;

  $ ls -la ../../../arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
  -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme 31 Feb 20 12:42 ../../../arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
  $

Check that that is still under tools/, i.e. hasn't escaped into the main
kernel sources:

  $ cd ../../../arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/
  $ pwd
  /home/acme/git/perf/tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm
  $

Copy over powerpc syscall.tbl to grab changes from the below commits

  fddb5d430ad9 ("open: introduce openat2(2) syscall")
  9a2cef09c801 ("arch: wire up pidfd_getfd syscall")

Now 'perf trace' on powerpc will be able to map from those syscall
strings to the right syscall numbers, i.e.

  perf trace -e pidfd*

Will include 'pidfd_getfd' as well as:

  perf trace open*

Will cover all 'open' variants.

<content type='text'>
And pick the shortest name: 'struct maps'.

The split existed because we used to have two groups of maps, one for
functions and one for variables, but that only complicated things,
sometimes we needed to figure out what was at some address and then had
to first try it on the functions group and if that failed, fall back to
the variables one.

That split is long gone, so for quite a while we had only one struct
maps per struct map_groups, simplify things by combining those structs.

First patch is the minimum needed to merge both, follow up patches will
rename 'thread-&gt;mg' to 'thread-&gt;maps', etc.

<content type='text'>
'perf kvm record' uses 'cycles'(if the user did not specify any event)
as the default event to profile the guest.

This will not provide any proper samples from the guest incase of
powerpc architecture, since in powerpc the PMUs are controlled by the
guest rather than the host.

Patch adds a function to pick an arch specific event for 'perf kvm
record', instead of selecting 'cycles' as a default event for all
architectures.

For powerpc this function checks for any user specified event, and if
there isn't any it returns invalid instead of proceeding with 'cycles'
event.
