perf namespaces: Fixup the nsinfo__in_pidns() return type, its bool

When adding support for refconunt checking a cut'n'paste made this
function, that is just an accessor to a bool member of 'struct nsinfo',
return a pid_t, when that member is a boolean, fix it.

perf namespaces: Introduce nsinfo__set_in_pidns()

When we're processing a perf.data file we will, for every thread in that
file do a machine__findnew_thread(machine, pid, tid) that when that pid
is seen for the first time will create a 'struct thread' representing
it.

That in turn will call nsinfo__new() -> nsinfo__init() and there it will
assume we're running live, which is wrong and will need to be addressed
in a followup patch.

The nsinfo__new() assumes that if we can't access that thread it has
already finished and will ignore the -1 return from nsinfo__init(), just
taking notes to avoid trying to enter in that namespace, since it isn't
there anymore, a race.

When doing this from 'perf inject', tho, we can fill in parts of that
nsinfo from what we get from the PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 (pid, tid) and in the
jitdump file name, that has the form of jit-<PID>.dump.

So if the pid in the jitdump file name is not the one in the
PERF_RECORD_MMAP2, we can assume that its the pid of the process
_inside_ the namespace, and that perf was runing outside that namespace.

This will be done in the following patch.

perf namespaces: Add reference count checking

Add reference count checking controlled by REFCNT_CHECKING ifdef. The
reference count checking interposes an allocated pointer between the
reference counted struct on a get and frees the pointer on a put.
Accesses after a put cause faults and use after free, missed puts are
caughts as leaks and double puts are double frees.

This checking helped resolve a memory leak and use after free:

the root PID namespace.

perf inject jit: Add namespaces support

This patch fixes "perf inject --jit" to properly operate on
namespaced/containerized processes:

* jitdump files are generated by the process, thus they should be
looked up in its mount NS.

* DSOs of injected MMAP events will later be looked up in the process
mount NS, so write them into its NS.

* PIDs & TIDs from jitdump events need to be translated to the PID as
seen by "perf record" before written into MMAP events.

For a process in a different PID NS, the TID & PID given in the jitdump
event are actually ignored; I use the TID & PID of the thread which
mmap()ed the jitdump file. This is simplified and won't do for forks of
the initial process, if they continue using the same jitdump file.
Future patches might improve it.

This was tested by recording a NodeJS process running with
"--perf-prof", inside a Docker container, and by recording another
NodeJS process running in the same namespaces as perf itself, to make
sure it's not broken for non-containerized processes.

perf tools: Restore proper cwd on return from mnt namespace

When reporting on 'record' server we try to retrieve/use the mnt
namespace of the profiled tasks. We use following API with cookie to
hold the return namespace, roughly:

nsinfo__mountns_enter(struct nsinfo *nsi, struct nscookie *nc)
setns(newns, 0);
...
new ns related open..
...
nsinfo__mountns_exit(struct nscookie *nc)
setns(nc->oldns)

Once finished we setns to old namespace, which also sets the current
working directory (cwd) to "/", trashing the cwd we had.

This is mostly fine, because we use absolute paths almost everywhere,
but it screws up 'perf diff':

# perf diff
failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory (try 'perf record' first)
...

Adding the current working directory to be part of the cookie and
restoring it in the nsinfo__mountns_exit call.

perf tools: Check for null when copying nsinfo.

The argument to nsinfo__copy() was assumed to be valid, but some code paths
exist that will lead to NULL being passed.

In particular, running 'perf script -D' on a perf.data file containing an
PERF_RECORD_MMAP event associating the '[vdso]' dso with pid 0 earlier in
the event stream will lead to a segfault.

Since all calling code is already checking for a non-null return value,
just return NULL for this case as well.

perf probe: Allow placing uprobes in alternate namespaces.

Teaches perf how to place a uprobe on a file that's in a different mount
namespace. The user must add the probe using the --target-ns argument
to perf probe. Once it has been placed, it may be recorded against
without further namespace-specific commands.

perf maps: Lookup maps in both intitial mountns and inner mountns.

If a process is in a mountns and has symbols in /tmp/perf-<pid>.map,
look first in the namespace using the tgid for the pidns that the
process might be in. If the map isn't found there, try looking in the
mountns where perf is running, and use the tgid that's appropriate for
perf's pid namespace. If all else fails, use the original pid.

This allows us to locate a symbol map file in the mount namespace, if it
was generated there. However, we also try the tool's /tmp in case it's
there instead.

perf tools: Add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES to include namespaces related info

Introduce a new option to record PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events emitted
by the kernel when fork, clone, setns or unshare are invoked. And update
perf-record documentation with the new option to record namespace
events.

Committer notes:

Combined it with a later patch to allow printing it via 'perf report -D'
and be able to test the feature introduced in this patch. Had to move
here also perf_ns__name(), that was introduced in another later patch.

Also used PRIu64 and PRIx64 to fix the build in some enfironments wrt:

util/event.c:1129:39: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 6 has type 'long long unsigned int' [-Werror=format=]
ret += fprintf(fp, "%u/%s: %lu/0x%lx%s", idx
^
Testing it:

# perf record --namespaces -a
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.083 MB perf.data (423 samples) ]
#
# perf report -D
