perf build: Remove PERF_HAVE_DWARF_REGS

PERF_HAVE_DWARF_REGS was true when an architecture had a dwarf-regs.c
file. There are no more architecture dwarf-regs.c files, selection is
done using constants from the ELF file rather than conditional
compilation. When removing PERF_HAVE_DWARF_REGS was the only variable
in the Makefile, remove the Makefile.

Add missing SPDX for RISC-V Makefile.

perf dwarf-regs: Remove PERF_HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET

PERF_HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET was used for BPF prologue
support which was removed in Commit 3d6dfae88917 ("perf parse-events:
Remove BPF event support"). The code is no longer used so remove.

Remove the offset from various dwarf-regs.c tables and the dependence
on ptrace.h. Rename structs starting pt_ as the ptrace derived offset is
now removed.

perf tools: Build x86 32-bit syscall table from arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_32.tbl

To remove one more use of the audit libs and address a problem reported
with a recent change where a function isn't available when using the
audit libs method, that should really go away, this being one step in
that direction.

The script used to generate the 64-bit syscall table was already
parametrized to generate for both 64-bit and 32-bit, so just use it and
wire the generated table to the syscalltbl.c routines.

treewide: remove meaningless assignments in Makefiles

In Makefiles, $(error ), $(warning ), and $(info ) expand to the empty
string, as explained in the GNU Make manual [1]:
"The result of the expansion of this function is the empty string."

Therefore, they are no-op except for logging purposes.

$(shell ...) expands to the output of the command. It expands to the
empty string when the command does not print anything to stdout.
Hence, $(shell mkdir ...) is no-op except for creating the directory.

Remove meaningless assignments.

ebeb8c82ffaf: syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling for IA32_EMULATION and x32

Also fix the x86 syscall table warning:

-Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'
+Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'

None of these changes impact existing tooling code, so we only have to copy the kernel version.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

perf build: Clarify open-coded header version warning message

In this patch we changed the header checks:

perf build: Clarify header version warning message

Unfortunately the header checks were copied to various places and thus the message got
out of sync. Fix some of them here.

Note that there's still old, misleading messages remaining in:

tools/objtool/Makefile: || echo "warning: objtool: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true
tools/objtool/Makefile: || echo "warning: objtool: orc_types.h differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true

here objtool copied the perf message, plus:

tools/perf/util/intel-pt-decoder/Build: || echo "Warning: Intel PT: x86 instruction decoder differs from kernel" >&2 )) || true

here the PT code regressed over the original message and only emits a vague warning
instead of specific file names...

All of this should be consolidated into tools/Build/ and used in a consistent
manner.

perf tools: Build syscall table .c header from kernel's syscall_64.tbl

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'

Move the x86 arch objects building under build framework to be included

Adding also arch/$(ARCH)/Build files for the rest of the archs. The
reason for this is that in arch/Build we now do:

+libperf-y += $(ARCH)/

which would make the build to fail on other architectures, because the
build framework requires 'Build' file in nested directories and this
patch adds it only for x86.

Parts of a 'perf kvm stat' code make sense only for x86.

Let's move this code into the arch/x86/kvm-stat.c file and add
util/kvm-stat.h for generic structure definitions.

Add a global array 'kvm_reg_events_ops' for accessing the arch-specific
'kvm_events_ops' from generic code.

Since the several global arrays (i.e. 'kvm_events_tp') have been moved
to arch/*, we can not know their sizes and use them directly in
builtin-kvm.c. This patch fixes that problem by adding trimming NULL
element to each array and changing the behavior of their handlers in
generic code.

perf tools: Add libdw DWARF post unwind support

Adding libdw DWARF post unwind support, which is part of
elfutils-devel/libdw-dev package from version 0.158.

The new code is contained in unwin-libdw.c object, and implements
unwind__get_entries unwind interface function.

New Makefile variable NO_LIBDW_DWARF_UNWIND was added to control its
compilation, and is marked as disabled now. It's factored with the rest
of the Makefile unwind build code in the next patch.

Arch specific code was added for x86.

perf tests x86: Add dwarf unwind test

Adding dwarf unwind test, that setups live machine data over the perf
test thread and does the remote unwind.

At this moment this test fails due to bug in the max_stack processing in
unwind__get_entries function. This is fixed in following patch.

Need to use -fno-optimize-sibling-calls for test compilation, otherwise
'krava_*' function calls are optimized into jumps and ommited from the
stack unwind.

So far it's enabled only for x86.

perf tools: Support for DWARF CFI unwinding on post processing

This brings the support for DWARF cfi unwinding on perf post
processing. Call frame informations are retrieved and then passed
to libunwind that requests memory and register content from the
applications.

Adding unwind object to handle the user stack backtrace based
on the user register values and user stack dump.

The unwind object access the libunwind via remote interface
and provides to it all the necessary data to unwind the stack.

The unwind interface provides following function:
unwind__get_entries

And callback (specified in above function) to retrieve
the backtrace entries:
typedef int (*unwind_entry_cb_t)(struct unwind_entry *entry,
void *arg);
