perf sched record passes unparsed args on to perf record, so
specifying an output file via perf sched record -o FILE (cmd) just
works. Ergo, provide an option to specify input file as well.
Also add the missing 'map' command to help.

Use 'perf sched latency' to track the current task based on
context-switch events, and flag the cases where there's some
impossible transition: such as a PID being switched out that
was not switched in.

Finish the -M/--multiplex option implementation:
- separate it out from group_fd
- correctly set it via the ioctl and dont mmap counters that
are multiplexed
- modify the perf record event loop to deal with buffer-less
counters.
- remove the -g option from perf sched record
- account for unordered events in perf sched latency
- (add -f to perf sched record to ease measurements)
- skip idle threads (pid==0) in latency output
The result is better latency output by 'perf sched latency':

Currently it's possible to meet such too high latency results
with 'perf sched latency'.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Task | Runtime ms | Switches | Average delay ms | Maximum delay ms |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
xfce4-panel | 0.222 ms | 2 | avg: 4718.345 ms | max: 9436.493 ms |
scsi_eh_3 | 3.962 ms | 36 | avg: 55.957 ms | max: 1977.829 ms |
The origin is on traces that are sometimes badly serialized across cpus.
For example the raw traces that raised such results for xfce4-panel:
(1) [init]-0 [000] 1494.663899990: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] (R) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120]
(2) xfce4-panel-4569 [000] 1494.663928373: sched_switch: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (S) ==> swapper:0 [140]
(3) Xorg-4276 [001] 1494.663860125: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000]
(4) Xorg-4276 [001] 1504.098252756: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000]
(5) perf-5219 [000] 1504.100353302: sched_switch: task perf:5219 [120] (S) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120]
The traces are processed in the order they arrive. Then in (2),
xfce4-panel sleeps, it is first waken up in (3) and eventually
scheduled in (5).
The latency reported is then 1504 - 1495 = 9 secs, as reported by perf
sched. But this is wrong, we are confident in the fact the traces are
nicely serialized while we should actually more trust the timestamps.
If we reorder by timestamps we get:
(1) Xorg-4276 [001] 1494.663860125: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000]
(2) [init]-0 [000] 1494.663899990: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] (R) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120]
(3) xfce4-panel-4569 [000] 1494.663928373: sched_switch: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] (S) ==> swapper:0 [140]
(4) Xorg-4276 [001] 1504.098252756: sched_wakeup: task xfce4-panel:4569 [120] success=1 [000]
(5) perf-5219 [000] 1504.100353302: sched_switch: task perf:5219 [120] (S) ==> xfce4-panel:4569 [120]
Now the trace make more sense, xfce4-panel is sleeping. Then it is
woken up in (1), scheduled in (2)
It goes to sleep in (3), woken up in (4) and scheduled in (5).
Now, latency captured between (1) and (2) is of 39 us.
And between (4) and (5) it is 2.1 ms.
Such pattern of bad serializing is the origin of the high latencies
reported by perf sched.
Basically, we need to check whether wake up time is higher than
schedule out time. If it's not the case, we need to tag the current
work atom as invalid.
Beside that, we may need to work later on a better ordering of the
traces given by the kernel.

Add an option to multiplex counters output in the channel of
the group leader, ie: the first counter opened:

The effect is better serialized samples. This is especially
useful for tracepoint samples that need to be well serialized
for their post-processing.
Also make use of this option in 'perf sched'.

Implement the 'perf sched record' subcommand that adds a
default list of events, turns on raw sampling and system-wide
tracing and passes off the rest of the command to perf record.
This is more convenient than having to specify the events all
the time.
Before:
$ perf record -a -R -e sched:sched_switch:r -e sched:sched_stat_wait:r -e sched:sched_stat_sleep:r -e sched:sched_stat_iowait:r -e sched:sched_process_exit:r -e sched:sched_process_fork:r -e sched:sched_wakeup:r -e sched:sched_migrate_task:r -c 1 sleep 1
After:
$ perf sched record -f sleep 1
Also fix an assumption in the event string parser that assumed
that strings passed in can be modified. (In this case they wont
be as they come from a readonly constant section.)

To measures the latencies, we capture the sched atoms data into
a specific structure named struct lat_snapshot.
As this structure can be used for other purposes of scheduler
profiling and mirrors what happens in a thread work atom, lets
rename it to struct work_atom and propagate this renaming in
other functions and structures names to keep it coherent.

Create a sched event structure of handlers in which various
sched events reader can plug their own callbacks.
This makes easier the addition of new perf sched sub commands.

perf sched raises the following error when it meets a sched
switch event:
perf: builtin-sched.c:286: register_pid: Assertion `!(pid >= 65536)' failed.
Abandon
Currently in x86-64, the sched switch events have a hole in the
middle of the structure:
u16 common_type;
u8 common_flags;
u8 common_preempt_count;
u32 common_pid;
u32 common_tgid;
char prev_comm[16];
u32 prev_pid;
u32 prev_prio;
<--- there
u64 prev_state;
char next_comm[16];
u32 next_pid;
u32 next_prio;
Gcc inserts a 4 bytes hole there for prev_state to be u64
aligned. And the events are exported to userspace with this
hole.
But in userspace, from perf sched, we fetch it using a
structure that has a new field in the beginning: u32 size. This
is because our trace is exported with its size as a field. But
now that we have this new field, the hole in the middle
disappears because it makes prev_state becoming well aligned.
And since we are using a pointer to the raw trace using this
struct, instead of reading prev_state, we are reading the hole.
We could fix it by keeping the size seperate from the struct
but actually there a lot of other potential problems: some
fields may be saved as long in a 64 bits system and later read
as long in a 32 bits system. Also this direct cast doesn't care
about the endianness differences between the host traced
machine and the machine in which we do the post processing.
So instead of using such dangerous direct casts, fetch the
values using the trace parsing API that already takes care of
all these problems.

Import the schedbench.c tool that i wrote some time ago to
simulate scheduler behavior but never finished. It's a good
basis for perf sched nevertheless.
Most of its guts are not hooked up to the perf event loop
yet - that will be done in the patches to come.

This turn-key tool allows scheduler measurements to be
conducted and the results be displayed numerically.
First baby step towards that goal: clone the new command off of
perf trace.
Fix a few other details along the way:
- add (minimal) perf trace documentation
- reorder a few places
- list perf trace in the mainporcelain list as well
as it's a very useful utility.

We started parsing perf.data at head 0. This caused -D to
segfault and it could possibly also case incorrect trace
entries to be displayed.
Parse it at data_offset instead.

The cmd-trace tool used the cmdline file and resolved the idle
thread using a hardcoded check for the 0 task pid.
Now we have a centralized way to do that from perf using
register_idle_thread() API.
