The reason for this is in the python interface, that allows a script to
pass arbitrary cpu number, which is then used to access struct
perf_evlist::mmap array. That's obviously wrong and works only when if
all cpus are available and fails if some cpu is missing, like in the
example above.
This patch makes pyrf_evlist__read_on_cpu() search the evlist's maps
array for the proper map to access.
It's linear search at the moment. Based on the way how is the
read_on_cpu used, I don't think we need to be fast in here. But we
could add some hash in the middle to make it fast/er.
We don't allow python interface to set write_backward event attribute,
so it's safe to check only evlist's mmaps.

Add is_compressed callback to the compressions array, that returns 0 if
the file is compressed or != 0 if not.
The new callback is used to recognize the situation when we have a
'compressed' object, like:
/lib/modules/.../drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb.ko.xz
but we need to read its debug data from debuginfo files, which might not
be compressed, like:
/root/.debug/.build-id/d6/...c4b301f/debug
So even for a 'compressed' object we read debug data from a plain
uncompressed object. To keep this transparent, we detect this in
decompress_kmodule() and return the file descriptor to the uncompressed
file.

Store a decompression ID in 'struct kmod_path', so it can be later
stored in 'struct dso'.
Switch 'struct kmod_path's 'comp' from 'bool' to 'int' to return the
compressions array index. Add 0 index item into compressions array, so
that the comp usage stays as it was: 0 - no compression, != 0
compression index.
Update the kmod_path tests.
Committer notes:
Use a designated initializer + terminating comma, e.g. { .fmt = NULL, }, to fix
the build in several distros:

This is the second version of a patch that improves the error message of
the perf events parser when the PMU hardware does not support address
filters.
Previously, the perf returned the following error:
$ perf record -e intel_pt// --filter 'filter sys_write'
--filter option should follow a -e tracepoint or HW tracer option
This implies there is some syntax error present in the command line,
which is not true. Rather, notify the user that the CPU does not have
support for this feature.
For example, Intel chips based on the Broadwell micro-archticture have
the Intel PT PMU, but do not support address filtering.
Now, perf prints the following error message:
$ perf record -e intel_pt// --filter 'filter sys_write'
This CPU does not support address filtering

The Yocto build system does a 'make clean' when rebuilding due to
changed dependencies, and that consistently fails for me (causing the
whole BSP build to fail) with errors such as
| find: '[...]/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/plugin_mac80211.so': No such file or directory
| find: '[...]/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/plugin_mac80211.so': No such file or directory
| find: find: '[...]/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/libtraceevent.a''[...]/perf/1.0-r9/perf-1.0/libtraceevent.a': No such file or directory: No such file or directory

Apparently (despite the comment), 'make clean' ends up launching
multiple sub-makes that all want to remove the same things - perhaps
this only happens in combination with a O=... parameter. In any case, we
don't lose much by explicitly disabling the parallelism for the clean
target, and it makes automated builds much more reliable.

The '||' path of execution in the 'test' block of the check_2() function
may also be taken if file2 does not exist, in which case the warning
message about the ABI headers being different would still be printed
where it should not be. See below.
% file1=file1; file2=file2
% cmd="echo diff $file1 $file2"
% test -f $file2 && \
eval $cmd || echo "Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/$file1'
differs from latest version at '$file2'" >&2
Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/file1' differs from latest
version at 'file2'
The proposed patch converts the code following the '&&' operator into a
compound list to be executed in the current process environment only if file2
does exist. Should the files being compared differ, a diff command to compare
the files concerned is printed on standard output. E.g.
$ diff -u tools/arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S
