The syscalltbl held entries of system call name and number pairs,
generated from a native syscalltbl at start up. As there are gaps in
the system call number there is a notion of index into the
table. Going forward we want the system call table to be identifiable
by a machine type, for example, i386 vs x86-64. Change the interface
to the syscalltbl so (1) a (currently unused machine type of EM_HOST)
is passed (2) the index to syscall number and system call name mapping
is computed at build time.
Two tables are used for this, an array of system call number to name,
an array of system call numbers sorted by the system call name. The
sorted array doesn't store strings in part to save memory and
relocations. The index notion is carried forward and is an index into
the sorted array of system call numbers, the data structures are
opaque (held only in syscalltbl.c), and so the number of indices for a
machine type is exposed as a new API.
The arrays are computed in the syscalltbl.sh script and so no start-up
time computation and storage is necessary.

A recent change in the flamegraph script fixed an issue with live mode
but it created another for offline mode. It needs to pass "-" to -i
option to read from stdin in the live mode. Actually there's a logic
to pass the option in the perf script code, but the script was written
with "-- $@" which prevented the option to go to the perf script. So
the previous commit added the hard-coded "-i -" to the report command.
But it's a problem for the offline mode which expects input from a file
and now it's stuck on reading from stdin. Let's remove the "-i - --"
part and let it pass the options properly to perf script.

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.

Previously system RAM and persistent memory were hard code matched,
change so that the label of the memory region is just read from
/proc/iomem. This avoids frequent N/A samples.
Change the /proc/iomem reading, event processing and output so that
nested entries appear and their counts count toward their parent. As
labels may be repeated, include the memory ranges in the output to make
it clear why, for example, "System RAM" appears twice.

The code has been updated to python 3 with type hints and resolving
issues reported by mypy and pylint. Tabs are swapped to spaces as
preferred in PEP8, because most lines of code were modified (of this

perf test "perf script tests" fails as below in systems

File "/home/athira/linux/tools/perf/tests/shell/../../scripts/python/parallel-perf.py", line 442
if line := p.stdout.readline():

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
--- Cleaning up ---
---- end(-1) ----
92: perf script tests: FAILED!
This happens because ":=" is a new syntax that assigns values
to variables as part of a larger expression. This is introduced
from python 3.8 and hence fails in setup with python 3.6
Address this by splitting the large expression and check the
value in two steps:
Previous line: if line := p.stdout.readline():
Current change:
line = p.stdout.readline()
if line:
With patch
./perf test "perf script tests"
