The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.
But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.
So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

Move the call path handling code out of thread-stack.c and
thread-stack.h to allow other components that are not part of
thread-stack to create call paths.
Summary:
- Create call-path.c and call-path.h and add them to the build.
- Move all call path related code out of thread-stack.c and thread-stack.h
and into call-path.c and call-path.h.
- A small subset of structures and functions are now visible through
call-path.h, which is required for thread-stack.c to continue to
compile.
This change is a prerequisite for subsequent patches in this change set
and by itself contains no user-visible changes.

We used libaudit to map ids to syscall names and vice-versa, but that
imposes a delay in supporting new syscalls, having to wait for libaudit
to get those new syscalls on its tables.
To remove that delay, for x86_64 initially, grab a copy of
arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl and use it to generate those
tables.
Syscalls currently not available in audit-libs:
# trace -e copy_file_range,membarrier,mlock2,pread64,pwrite64,timerfd_create,userfaultfd
Error: Invalid syscall copy_file_range, membarrier, mlock2, pread64, pwrite64, timerfd_create, userfaultfd
Hint: try 'perf list syscalls:sys_enter_*'
Hint: and: 'man syscalls'
#
With this patch:
# trace -e copy_file_range,membarrier,mlock2,pread64,pwrite64,timerfd_create,userfaultfd

We're using libaudit for doing name to id and id to syscall name
translations, but that makes 'perf trace' to have to wait for newer
libaudit versions supporting recently added syscalls, such as
"userfaultfd" at the time of this changeset.
We have all the information right there, in the kernel sources, so move
this code to a separate place, wrapped behind functions that will
progressively use the kernel source files to extract the syscall table
for use in 'perf trace'.

While building on a Docker container for ubuntu and installing package
by package one ends up with:
MKDIR /tmp/build/util/
CC /tmp/build/util/genelf.o
util/genelf.c:22:19: fatal error: dwarf.h: No such file or directory
#include <dwarf.h>
^
compilation terminated.
mv: cannot stat '/tmp/build/util/.genelf.o.tmp': No such file or directory
Because the jitdump code needs the DWARF related development packages to
be installed. So make it dependent on that so that the build can succeed
without jitdump support.

This patch adds a --jit/-j option to perf inject.
This options injects MMAP records into the perf.data file to cover the
jitted code mmaps. It also emits ELF images for each function in the
jidump file. Those images are created where the jitdump file is. The
MMAP records point to that location as well.
Typical flow:
$ perf record -k mono -- java -agentpath:libpjvmti.so java_class
$ perf inject --jit -i perf.data -o perf.data.jitted
$ perf report -i perf.data.jitted
Note that jitdump.h support is not limited to Java, it works with any
jitted environment modified to emit the jitdump file format, include
those where code can be jitted multiple times and moved around.
The jitdump.h format is adapted from the Oprofile project.
The genelf.c (ELF binary generation) depends on MD5 hash encoding for
the buildid. To enable this, libssl-dev must be installed. If not, then
genelf.c defaults to using urandom to generate the buildid, which is not
ideal. The Makefile auto-detects the presence on libssl-dev.
This version mmaps the jitdump file to create a marker MMAP record in
the perf.data file. The marker is used to detect jitdump and cause perf
inject to inject the jitted mmaps and generate ELF images for jitted
functions.
In V8, the following fixes and changes were made among other things:
- the jidump header format include a new flags field to be used
to carry information about the configuration of the runtime agent.

- Fix mmap pgoff: MMAP event pgoff must be the offset within the ELF file
at which the code resides.
Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>
- Fix ELF virtual addresses: perf tools expect the ELF virtual addresses of dynamic
objects to match the file offset.
Contributed by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>
- JIT MMAP injection does not obey finished_round semantics. JIT MMAP injection injects all
MMAP events in one go, so it does not obey finished_round semantics, so drop the
finished_round events from the output perf.data file.
