perf python: Switch module to linking libraries from building source

setup.py was building most perf sources causing setup.py to mimic the
Makefile logic as well as flex/bison code to be stubbed out, due to
complexity building. By using libraries fewer functions are stubbed
out, the build is faster and the Makefile logic is reused which should
simplify updating. The libraries are passed through LDFLAGS to avoid
complexity in python.

Force the -fPIC flag for libbpf.a to ensure it is suitable for linking
into the perf python module.

perf python: Fix splitting CC into compiler and options

Noticed this build failure on archlinux:base when building with clang:

clang-14: error: optimization flag '-ffat-lto-objects' is not supported [-Werror,-Wignored-optimization-argument]

In tools/perf/util/setup.py we check if clang supports that option, but
since commit 3cad53a6f9cdbafa ("perf python: Account for multiple words
in CC") this got broken as in the common case where CC="clang":

>>> cc="clang"
>>> print(cc.split()[0])
clang
>>> option="-ffat-lto-objects"
>>> print(str(cc.split()[1:]) + option)
[]-ffat-lto-objects
>>>

And then the Popen will call clang with that bogus option name that in
turn will not produce the b"unknown argument" or b"is not supported"
that this function uses to detect if the option is not available and
thus later on clang will be called with an unknown/unsupported option.

Fix it by looking if really there are options in the provided CC
variable, and if so override 'cc' with the first token and append the
options to the 'option' variable.

Sometimes build systems may append options e.g. --sysroot etc. to CC
variable especially in cross-compile environments like yocto project
where CC varable is composed of cross-compiler name and some needed
options for it to work in a relocatable environment.

Therefore separate out the compiler name from rest of the options in CC,
then add the options via second argument to Popen() API

perf build: Use libtraceevent from the system

Remove the LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC and LIBTRACEFS_DYNAMIC make command
line variables.

If libtraceevent isn't installed or NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 is passed to the
build, don't compile in libtraceevent and libtracefs support.

This also disables CONFIG_TRACE that controls "perf trace".

CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT is used to control enablement in Build/Makefiles,
HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is used in C code.

Without HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT tracepoints are disabled and as such the
commands kmem, kwork, lock, sched and timechart are removed. The
majority of commands continue to work including "perf test".

Committer notes:

Fixed up a tools/perf/util/Build reject and added:

#include <traceevent/event-parse.h>

Had to tweak tools/perf/util/setup.py to make sure the python binding
shared object links with libtraceevent if -DHAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is
present in CFLAGS.

Building with NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 uncovered some more build failures:

- Make building of data-convert-bt.c to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y

- perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += scripts/

- bpf_kwork.o needs also to be dependent on CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y

- The python binding needed some fixups and util/trace-event.c can't be
built and linked with the python binding shared object, so remove it
in tools/perf/util/setup.py and exclude it from the list of
dependencies in the python/perf.so Makefile.perf target.

Building without libtraceevent-devel installed uncovered more build
failures:

- The python binding tools/perf/util/python.c was assuming that
traceevent/parse-events.h was always available, which was the case
when we defaulted to using the in-kernel tools/lib/traceevent/ files,
now we need to enclose it under ifdef HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT, just like
the other parts of it that deal with tracepoints.

- We have to ifdef the rules in the Build files with
CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y to build builtin-trace.c and
tools/perf/trace/beauty/ as we only ifdef setting CONFIG_TRACE=y when
setting NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 in the make command line, not when we don't
detect libtraceevent-devel installed in the system. Simplification here
to avoid these two ways of disabling builtin-trace.c and not having
CONFIG_TRACE=y when libtraceevent-devel isn't installed is the clean
way.

From Athira:

<quote>
tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/Build
-perf-y += kvm-stat.o
+perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += kvm-stat.o
</quote>

Then, ditto for arm64 and s390, detected by container cross build tests.

- s/390 uses test__checkevent_tracepoint() that is now only available if
HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is defined, enclose the callsite with ifder HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT.

Also from Athira:

<quote>
With this change, I could successfully compile in these environment:
- Without libtraceevent-devel installed
- With libtraceevent-devel installed
- With “make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1”
</quote>

Then, finally rename CONFIG_TRACEEVENT to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT for
consistency with other libraries detected in tools/perf/.

perf python: Fix probing for some clang command line options

The clang compiler complains about some options even without a source
file being available, while others require one, so use the simple
tools/build/feature/test-hello.c file.

Then check for the "is not supported" string in its output, in addition
to the "unknown argument" already being looked for.

This was noticed when building with clang-13 where -ffat-lto-objects
isn't supported and since we were looking just for "unknown argument"
and not providing a source code to clang, was mistakenly assumed as
being available and not being filtered to set of command line options
provided to clang, leading to a build failure.

perf tools: Add 'evlist' control command

Add a new 'evlist' control command to display all the evlist events.
When it is received, perf will scan and print current evlist into perf
record terminal.

The interface string for control file is:

evlist [-v|-g|-F]

The syntax follows perf evlist command:
-F Show just the sample frequency used for each event.
-v Show all fields.
-g Show event group information.

Example session:

terminal 1:
# mkfifo control ack
# perf record --control=fifo:control,ack -e '{cycles,instructions}'

This new evlist command is handy to get real event names when
wildcards are used.

Adding evsel_fprintf.c object to python/perf.so build, because
it's now evlist.c dependency.

Adding PYTHON_PERF define for python/perf.so compilation, so we
can use it to compile in only evsel__fprintf from evsel_fprintf.c
object.

perf python: Check if clang supports -fno-semantic-interposition

The set of C compiler options used by distros to build python bindings

such options, add -fno-semantic-interposition to that mix:

This fixes the build on, among others, Manjaro Linux:

perf python: Fix clang detection to strip out options passed in $CC

The clang check in the python setup.py file expected $CC to be just the
name of the compiler, not the compiler + options, i.e. all options were
expected to be passed in $CFLAGS, this ends up making it fail in systems
where CC is set to, e.g.:

"aarch64-linaro-linux-gcc --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/juno-linaro-linux/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot"

Like this:

$ python3
>>> from subprocess import Popen
>>> a = Popen(["aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/juno-linaro-linux/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot", "-v"])
Traceback (most recent call last):

Make it more robust, covering this case, by passing cc.split()[0] as the
first arg to popen().

perf python: Fix clang detection when using CC=clang-version

Currently, the setup.py script detects the clang compiler only when invoked
with CC=clang. But when using a specific version (e.g. CC=clang-11), this
doesn't work correctly and wrong compiler flags are set, leading to build
errors.

To properly detect clang, invoke the compiler with -v and check the output.
The first line should start with "clang version ...".

$

And here is how tools/perf/util/setup.py checks if the used clang has
options that the distro specific python extension building compiler
defaults:

if cc_is_clang:
from distutils.sysconfig import get_config_vars
vars = get_config_vars()
for var in ('CFLAGS', 'OPT'):
vars[var] = sub("-specs=[^ ]+", "", vars[var])
if not clang_has_option("-mcet"):
vars[var] = sub("-mcet", "", vars[var])
if not clang_has_option("-fcf-protection"):
vars[var] = sub("-fcf-protection", "", vars[var])
if not clang_has_option("-fstack-clash-protection"):
vars[var] = sub("-fstack-clash-protection", "", vars[var])
if not clang_has_option("-fstack-protector-strong"):
vars[var] = sub("-fstack-protector-strong", "", vars[var])

So "-fcf-protection=full" is used, clang-9 has this option and thus it
was kept, the perf python extension was built with it and the build
completed successfully.

perf tools: Add helpers to use capabilities if present

Add utilities to help checking capabilities of the running procss. Make
perf link with libcap, if it is available. If no libcap-dev[el],
fallback to the geteuid() == 0 test used before.

Committer notes:

$ perf test python
18: 'import perf' in python : FAILED!
$ perf test -v python
Couldn't bump rlimit(MEMLOCK), failures may take place when creating BPF maps, etc
18: 'import perf' in python :

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: cap_get_flag
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
'import perf' in python: FAILED!
$

This happens because differently from the perf binary generated with
this patch applied:

$ ldd /tmp/build/perf/perf | grep libcap
libcap.so.2 => /lib64/libcap.so.2 (0x00007f724a4ef000)
$

The python binding isn't linking with libcap:

$ ldd /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so | grep libcap
$

So add 'cap' to the 'extra_libraries' variable in
tools/perf/util/setup.py, and rebuild:

$ perf test python
18: 'import perf' in python : Ok
$

If we explicitely disable libcap it also continues to work:

$ make NO_LIBCAP=1 -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
$ ldd /tmp/build/perf/perf | grep libcap
$ ldd /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so | grep libcap
$ perf test python
18: 'import perf' in python : Ok
