Currently the PROCEXEC event only reports a single address, entryaddr,
which is the entry point of the interpreter in the typical dynamic case,
and used solely to calculate the base address of the interpreter. For
PDEs this is fine, since the base address is known from the program
headers, but for PIEs the base address varies at run time based on where
the kernel chooses to load it, and so pmcstat has no way of knowing the
real address ranges for the executable. This was less of an issue in the
past since PIEs were rare, but now they're on by default on 64-bit
architectures it's more of a problem.
To solve this, pass through what was picked for et_dyn_addr by the
kernel, and use that as the offset for the executable's start address
just as is done for everything in the kernel. Since we're changing this
interface, sanitise the way we determine the interpreter's base address
by passing it through directly rather than indirectly via the entry
point and having to subtract off whatever the ELF header's e_entry is
(and anything that wants the entry point in future can still add that
back on as needed; this merely changes the interface to directly provide
the underlying variables involved).
This will be followed up by a bump to the pmc major version.

This unifies the user object and kernel module paths in libpmcstat,
allows modules loaded from non-standard locations (e.g. from a user's
home directory when testing) to be found and, since buffer is what all
the warnings here use (they were never updated when buffer_modules were
added to pick based on where the file was found) has the side-effect of
ensuring the messages are correct.
This includes obsoleting the now-superfluous -k option in pmcstat.
This change breaks the hwpmc ABI and will be followed by a bump to the
pmc major version.

pmcstat has been broken for analyzing logs since D35342 / b6e28991bf.
This is because the pmc for the first CPU is not added when reading logs
because unlike its clones, its event id is not invalid. That causes us
to fail the assertion at lib/libpmcstat/libpmcstat_logging.c:293
when encountering samples from cpu0.
Fix this by removing the check that the PMC is invalid

For an infrequent event, pmcstat may report (u_long)-1 for CPUs where
the counter was never incremented. Just set this to zero, instead.
ev->ev_count is passed as the 'count' argument to pmc_allocate(3), but
this wasn't always the case.

While arguably this violates POLA I think it's a change for the better.

1. Remove all the All Rights Reserved clauses on our stuff. Where we

- add '-j' options to filter to enable converting native pmc
log format to json lines format to enable the use of scripts
and external tooling
% pmc filter -j pmc.log pmc.jsonl
- Record the tsc value in sampling interrupts as opposed to
recording nanotime when the sample is copied to a global log
in hardclock - potentially many milliseconds later.
- At initialize record the tsc_freq and the time of day to give
us an offset for translating the tsc values in callchain records
This adds the -U options to pmcstat which will attribute in-kernel samples
back to the user stack that invoked the system call. It is not the default,
because when looking at kernel profiles it is generally more desirable to
merge all instances of a given system call together.
Although heavily revised, this change is directly derived from D7350 by
Jonathan T. Looney.

The vendor pmu-events tables provide counter descriptions, default

configuration permutations. Using this gives us:
- much simpler kernel code for the MD component
- helpful long and short event descriptions
- simpler user code
- sample rates that won't overload the system

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
