Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 0050f7aa18 perf evlist: Introduce evlist__for_each() & friends
For the common evsel list traversal, so that it becomes more compact.

Use the opportunity to start ditching the 'perf_' from 'perf_evlist__',
as discussed, as the whole conversion touches a lot of places, lets do
it piecemeal when we have the chance due to other work, like in this
case.

Jiri Olsa 9bb8e5edcf tools lib traceevent: Shut up plugins make message
Getting rid of following build output:

  $ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf/ install-bin
  ...
  make[3]: Nothing to be done for `plugins'.
  make[2]: Nothing to be done for `plugins'.
  ...

which triggers when traceevent library needs to be rebuilt, but we have
plugins built already.

Adding extra 'plugins' target with nop which is visible and triggers in
both Makefile parts (for detached output directory (O=...) the
traceevent Makefile spawns sub make for the build itself).

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo f33cbe72e6 perf evlist: Send the errno in the signal when workload fails
When a tool uses perf_evlist__start_workload and the supplied workload
fails (e.g.: its binary wasn't found), perror was being used to print
the error reason.

This is undesirable, as the caller may be a GUI, when it wants to have
total control of the error reporting process.

So move to using sigaction(SA_SIGINFO) + siginfo_t->sa_value->sival_int
to communicate to the caller the errno and let it print it using the UI
of its choosing.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 6af206fd91 perf stat: Don't show counter information when workload fails
When starting a workload 'stat' wasn't using prepare_workload evlist
method's signal based exec() error reporting mechanism.

Use it so that the we don't report 'not counted' counters.

Before:

  [acme@zoo linux]$ perf stat dfadsfa
  dfadsfa: No such file or directory

   Performance counter stats for 'dfadsfa':

       <not counted>      task-clock
       <not counted>      context-switches
       <not counted>      cpu-migrations
       <not counted>      page-faults
       <not counted>      cycles
       <not counted>      stalled-cycles-frontend
     <not supported>      stalled-cycles-backend
       <not counted>      instructions
       <not counted>      branches
       <not counted>      branch-misses

         0.001831462 seconds time elapsed

  [acme@zoo linux]$

After:

  [acme@zoo linux]$ perf stat dfadsfa
  dfadsfa: No such file or directory
  [acme@zoo linux]$

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 74cf249d5c perf tools: Use zfree to help detect use after free bugs
Several areas already used this technique, so do some audit to
consistently use it elsewhere.
