The --full-paths option did not show the full source file paths in the 'perf
annotate' tool, because the value of the option was not propagated into the
related functions.
With this patch the value of the --full-paths option is known to the function
that composes the srcline string, so it prints the full path when necessary.
Committer Note:
This affects annotate when the --print-line option is used:
# perf annotate -h 2>&1 | grep print-line
-l, --print-line print matching source lines (may be slow)
Looking just at the lines that should be affected by this change:

This patch replaces the original toy BPF program with the previously
introduced bpf-script-example.c. Dynamically embeddeding it into
'llvm-src-base.c'.
The newly introduced BPF program attaches a BPF program to
'sys_epoll_pwait()'. perf itself never use that syscall, so further test
can verify their result with it. The program would generate 1 sample in
every 2 calls of epoll_pwait() system call.
Since the resulting BPF object is useful per se for further tests,
test_llvm__fetch_bpf_obj() is introduced for creating BPF objects from
source. The LLVM test was rewritten to use it.

A series of bpf loader related error codes were introduced to help error
reporting. Functions were improved to return these new error codes.
Functions which return pointers were adjusted to encode error codes into
return value using the ERR_PTR() interface.
bpf_loader_strerror() was improved to convert these error messages to
strings. It checks the error codes and calls libbpf_strerror() and
strerror_r() accordingly, so caller don't need to consider checking the
range of the error code.
In bpf__strerror_load(), print kernel version of running kernel and the
object's 'version' section to notify user how to fix his/her program.
v1 -> v2:
Use macro for error code.
Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop.
Print version strings.

[ Add 'static inline' to bpf__strerror_prepare_load() when LIBBPF is disabled ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
In this patch, a series of libbpf specific error numbers and
libbpf_strerror() are introduced to help reporting errors.
Functions are updated to pass correct the error number through the
CHECK_ERR() macro.
All users of bpf_object__open{_buffer}() and bpf_program__title() in
perf are modified accordingly. In addition, due to the error codes
changing, bpf__strerror_load() is also modified to use them.
bpf__strerror_head() is also changed accordingly so it can parse libbpf
errors. bpf_loader_strerror() is introduced for that purpose, and will
be improved by the following patch.
load_program() is improved not to dump log buffer if it is empty. log
buffer is also used to deduce whether the error was caused by an invalid
program or other problem.
v1 -> v2:
- Using macro for error code.
- Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop.
- Use log buffer to detect the reason of failure. 3 new error code
are introduced to replace LIBBPF_ERRNO__LOAD.
In v1:
# perf record -e ./test_ill_program.o ls
event syntax error: './test_ill_program.o'
\___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object

When the browser fails to annotate it is difficult for users to find out
what went wrong.
Add some errors for objdump failures that are displayed in the UI.
Note it would be even better to handle these errors smarter, like
falling back to the binary when the debug info is somehow corrupted. But
for now just giving a better error is an improvement.
Committer note:
This works for --stdio, where errors just scroll by the screen:
# perf annotate --stdio intel_idle
Failure running objdump --start-address=0xffffffff81418290 --stop-address=0xffffffff814183ae -l -d --no-show-raw -S -C /root/.debug/.build-id/28/2777c262e6b3c0451375163c9a81c893218ab1 2>/dev/null|grep -v /root/.debug/.build-id/28/2777c262e6b3c0451375163c9a81c893218ab1|expand
Percent | Source code & Disassembly of vmlinux for cycles:pp
------------------------------------------------------------------
And with that one can use that command line to try to find out more about what
happened instead of getting a blank screen, an improvement.
We need tho to improve this further to get it to work with other UIs, like
--tui and --gtk, where it continues showing a blank screen, no messages, as
the pr_err() used is enough just for --stdio.

This patch introduces a new macro "__NR_CPUS__" to perf's embedded clang
compiler, which represent the number of configured CPUs in this system.
BPF programs can use this macro to create a map with the same number of
system CPUs. For example:
struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") pmu_map = {
.type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY,
.key_size = sizeof(int),
.value_size = sizeof(u32),
.max_entries = __NR_CPUS__,
