2015-09-28perf evlist: Add perf_evlist__remove()Adrian Hunter
Add a counterpart to perf_evlist__add() that does the opposite and deletes the evsel. This will be used by perf inject to remove unwanted evsels.

2015-09-28perf evlist: Add perf_evlist__id2evsel_strict()Adrian Hunter
perf_evlist__id2evsel_strict() is the same as perf_evlist__id2evsel() except that it ensures that the id must match. This will be used by perf inject to find a specific evsel that is to be deleted, hence the need to match exactly.

2015-09-15perf evlist: Fix splice_list_tail() not setting evlistAdrian Hunter
Commit d49e46950772 ("perf evsel: Add a backpointer to the evlist a evsel is in") updated perf_evlist__add() but not perf_evlist__splice_list_tail(). This illustrates that it is better if perf_evlist__splice_list_tail() calls perf_evlist__add() instead of duplicating the logic, so do that. This will also simplify a subsequent fix for propagating maps.

Subsequent patches will need to call perf_evlist__propagate_maps without reference to a "target".

2015-09-15perf evlist: Remove redundant validation from propagate_maps()Adrian Hunter
The validation checks that the values that were just assigned, got assigned i.e. the error can't ever happen. Subsequent patches will call this code in places where errors are not being returned. Changing those code paths to return this non-existent error is counter-productive, so just remove it. That in turn results in perf_evlist__set_maps not needing to return an error, but callers aren't checking it either, so remove that too.

2015-04-29perf evlist: Add support for mmapping an AUX area bufferAdrian Hunter
This patch supports the addition to the kernel of AUX area buffers that can be mmapped separately from the perf-events buffer. The AUX buffer can be configured to contain hardware-produced trace information. The first implementation will support Intel BTS and Intel PT. One auxtrace buffer is mmapped per perf-events buffer. If the requested auxtrace buffer size is zero, which it will be until further support is added, then no auxtrace mmapping is attempted.

2014-09-25perf evlist: Introduce perf_evlist__filter_pollfd methodArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
To remove all entries in evlist->pollfd[] that have revents matching at least one of the bits in the specified mask. It'll adjust evlist->nr_fds to the number of unfiltered fds and will return this value, as a convenience and to avoid requiring direct access to internal state of perf_evlist objects. This will be used after polling the evlist fds so that we remove fds that were closed by the kernel.

The perf_evlist__mmap_read used 'union perf_event' as a placeholder for event crossing the mmap boundary. This is ok for sample shorter than ~PATH_MAX. However we could grow up to the maximum sample size which is 16 bits max. I hit this overflow issue when using 'perf top -G dwarf' which produces sample with the size around 8192 bytes. We could configure any valid sample size here using: '-G dwarf,size'. Using array with sample max size instead for the event placeholder. Also adding another safe check for the dynamic size of the user stack. TODO: The 'struct perf_mmap' is quite big now, maybe we could use some lazy allocation for event_copy size.
