Since Fixes: 8c5421c0 ("perf pmu: Display pmu name when printing
unmerged events in stat") using --no-merge adds the PMU name to the
evsel name.

This breaks the metric value lookup because the parser doesn't know
about this.

Remove the extra postfixes for the metric evaluation.

The metric group code tries to find a group it added earlier in the
evlist. Fix the lookup to handle groups with partially overlaps
correctly. When a sub string match fails and we reset the match, we have
to compare the first element again.

I also renamed the find_evsel function to find_evsel_group to make its
purpose clearer.

With the earlier changes this fixes:

Event merging is mainly to collapse similar events in lots of different
duplicated PMUs.

It can break metric displaying. It's possible for two metrics to have
the same event, and when the two events happen in a row the second
wouldn't be displayed.  This would also not show the second metric.

To avoid this don't merge events in the same PMU. This makes sense, if
we have multiple events in the same PMU there is likely some reason for
it (e.g. using multiple groups) and we better not merge them.

While in theory it would be possible to construct metrics that have
events with the same name in different PMU no current metrics have this
problem.

This is the fix for perf stat -M UPI,IPC (needs also another bug fix to
completely work)

After setting up metric groups through the event parser, the metricgroup
code looks them up again in the event list.

Make sure we only look up events that haven't been used by some other
metric. The data structures currently cannot handle more than one metric
per event. This avoids problems with multiple events partially
overlapping.

This came from the kernel lib/argv_split.c, so move it to
tools/lib/argv_split.c, to get it closer to the kernel structure.

We need to audit the usage of argv_split() to figure out if it is really
necessary to do have one allocation per argv[] entry, looking at one of
its users I guess that is not the case and we probably are even leaking
those allocations by not using argv_free() judiciously, for later.

With this we further remove stuff from tools/perf/util/, reducing the
perf specific codebase and encouraging other tools/ code to use these
routines so as to keep the style and constructs used with the kernel.

We got the sane_ctype.h headers from git and kept using it so far, but
since that code originally came from the kernel sources to the git
sources, perhaps its better to just use the one in the kernel, so that
we can leverage tools/perf/check_headers.sh to be notified when our copy
gets out of sync, i.e. when fixes or goodies are added to the code we've
copied.

This will help with things like tools/lib/string.c where we want to have
more things in common with the kernel, such as strim(), skip_spaces(),
etc so as to go on removing the things that we have in tools/perf/util/
and instead using the code in the kernel, indirectly and removing things
like EXPORT_SYMBOL(), etc, getting notified when fixes and improvements
are made to the original code.

Hopefully this also should help with reducing the difference of code
hosted in tools/ to the one in the kernel proper.

Those are not in that file in the git repo, lets move it from there so
that we get that sane ctype code fully isolated to allow getting it in
sync either with the git sources or better with the kernel sources
(include/linux/ctype.h + lib/ctype.h), that way we can use
check_headers.h to get notified when changes are made in the original
code so that we can cherry-pick.

We can just use the 'field width' for the %s used to print the
alignment, this way we'll get the same result without requiring having a

No way to do that for the dots tho, we still need that variable filled

Commit f08046cb ("perf thread-stack: Represent jmps to the start of a
different symbol") had the side-effect of introducing more stack entries
before return from kernel space.

When user space is also traced, those entries are popped before entry to
user space, but when user space is not traced, they get stuck at the
bottom of the stack, making the stack grow progressively larger.

Fix by detecting a return-from-kernel branch type, and popping kernel
addresses from the stack then.

Note, the problem and fix affect the exported Call Graph / Tree but not
the callindent option used by "perf script --call-trace".

Example:

  perf-with-kcore record example -e intel_pt//k -- ls

Committer notes:

The first arg to the perf-with-kcore needs to be the same for the
'record' and 'script' lines, otherwise we'll record the perf.data file
and kcore_dir/ files in one directory ('example') to then try to use it
from the 'bep' directory, fix the instructions above it so that both use
'example'.
