perf cpumap: Clean up use of perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu_or_is_empty

Most uses of what was perf_cpu_map__empty but is now
perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu_or_is_empty want to do something with the
CPU map if it contains CPUs. Replace uses of
perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu_or_is_empty with other helpers so that CPUs
within the map can be handled.

libperf cpumap: Rename perf_cpu_map__empty() to perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu_or_is_empty()

The name perf_cpu_map_empty is misleading as true is also returned
when the map contains an "any" CPU (aka dummy) map.

Rename to perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu_or_is_empty(), later changes will
(re)introduce perf_cpu_map__empty() and perf_cpu_map__has_any_cpu().

The group option predates grouping events using curly braces added in
commit 89efb029502d7f2d ("perf tools: Add support to parse event group

The --group option was retained for legacy support (in August
2012) but keeping it adds complexity.

perf evlist: Rename cpus to user_requested_cpus

evlist contains cpus and all_cpus. all_cpus is the union of the cpu maps
of all evsels.

For non-task targets, cpus is set to be cpus requested from the command
line, defaulting to all online cpus if no cpus are specified.

For an uncore event, all_cpus may be just CPU 0 or every online CPU.

This causes all_cpus to have fewer values than the cpus variable which
is confusing given the 'all' in the name.

To try to make the behavior clearer, rename cpus to user_requested_cpus
and add comments on the two struct variables.

perf cpumap: Give CPUs their own type

A common problem is confusing CPU map indices with the CPU, by wrapping
the CPU with a struct then this is avoided. This approach is similar to
atomic_t.

Committer notes:

To make it build with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 these files needed the
conversions to 'struct perf_cpu' usage:

tools/perf/util/bpf_counter.c
tools/perf/util/bpf_counter_cgroup.c
tools/perf/util/bpf_ftrace.c

Also perf_env__get_cpu() was removed back in "perf cpumap: Switch
cpu_map__build_map to cpu function".

Additionally these needed to be fixed for the ARM builds to complete:

tools/perf/arch/arm/util/cs-etm.c
tools/perf/arch/arm64/util/pmu.c

perf record: Disallow -c and -F option at the same time

It's confusing which one is effective when the both options are given.
The current code happens to use -c in this case but users might not be
aware of it. We can change it to complain about that instead of relying
on the implicit priority.

Before:

$ perf record -c 111111 -F 99 true
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.031 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]

$ perf evlist -F
cycles: sample_period=111111
$

After:
$ perf record -c 111111 -F 99 true
cannot set frequency and period at the same time
$

So this change can break existing usages, but I think it's rare to have
both options and it'd be better changing them.

perf tools: Support the auxiliary event

On the Intel Sapphire Rapids server, an auxiliary event has to be
enabled simultaneously with the load latency event to retrieve complete
Memory Info.

Add X86 specific perf_mem_events__name() to handle the auxiliary event.

- Users are only interested in the samples of the mem-loads event.
Sample read the auxiliary event.

- The auxiliary event must be in front of the load latency event in a
group. Assume the second event to sample if the auxiliary event is the
leader.

- Add a weak is_mem_loads_aux_event() to check the auxiliary event for
X86. For other ARCHs, it always return false.

Parse the unique event name, mem-loads-aux, for the auxiliary event.

Committer notes:

According to 61b985e3e775a3a7 ("perf/x86/intel: Add perf core PMU
support for Sapphire Rapids"), ENODATA is only returned by
sys_perf_event_open() when used with these auxiliary events, with this
in evsel__open_strerror():

case ENODATA:
return scnprintf(msg, size, "Cannot collect data source with the load latency event alone. "
"Please add an auxiliary event in front of the load latency event.");

This is Ok at this point in time, but fragile long term, I pointed this
out in the e-mail thread, requesting a follow up patch to check if
ENODATA is really for this specific case.

Fixed up sizeof(MEM_LOADS_AUX_NAME) bug pointed out by Namhyung.

perf record: Support sample-read topdown metric group

With the hardware TopDown metrics feature, sample-read feature should be
supported for a topdown group, e.g., sample a non-topdown event and read
a topdown metric group. But the current perf record code errors out.

For a topdown metric group, the slots event must be the leader of the
group, but the leader slots event doesn't support sampling.

To support sample-read the topdown metric group, use the 2nd event of
the group as the "leader" for the purposes of sampling.

Only the platform with Topdown metic feature supports sample-read the
topdown group. Add arch_topdown_sample_read() to indicate whether the
topdown group supports sample-read.

perf record: Don't clear event's period if set by a term

If events in a group explicitly set a frequency or period with leader
sampling, don't disable the samples on those events.

Prior to 5.8:

perf record: Don't clear event's period if set by a term

If events in a group explicitly set a frequency or period with leader
sampling, don't disable the samples on those events.

Prior to 5.8:

perf record -e '{cycles/period=12345000/,instructions/period=6789000/}:S'

would clear the attributes then apply the config terms. In commit
5f34278867b7 leader sampling configuration was moved to after applying the
config terms, in the example, making the instructions' event have its period
cleared.

This change makes it so that sampling is only disabled if configuration
terms aren't present.

Committer testing:

Before:

# perf record -e '{cycles/period=1/,instructions/period=2/}:S' sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.051 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]

instructions/period=2/: size: 120, config: 0x1, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|READ|ID, read_format: ID|GROUP, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1
#

After:

# perf record -e '{cycles/period=1/,instructions/period=2/}:S' sleep 0.0001
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.052 MB perf.data (4 samples) ]
# perf evlist -v

perf tools: Add support for leader-sampling with AUX area events

When AUX area events are used in sampling mode, they must be the group
leader, but the group leader is also used for leader-sampling.

perf tools: Add support for leader-sampling with AUX area events

When AUX area events are used in sampling mode, they must be the group
leader, but the group leader is also used for leader-sampling. However,
it is not desirable to use an AUX area event as the leader for
leader-sampling, because it doesn't have any samples of its own. To support
leader-sampling with AUX area events, use the 2nd event of the group as the
"leader" for the purposes of leader-sampling.

Example:

# perf record --kcore --aux-sample -e '{intel_pt//,cycles,instructions}:S' -c 10000 uname
[ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.786 MB perf.data ]
