perf arm64: Use max_nr to define SYSCALLTBL_ARM64_MAX_ID

Like x86, powerpc, mips and s390, use max_nr which is a digital
number to define SYSCALLTBL_ARM64_MAX_ID.

perf arm64: Handle __NR3264_ prefixed syscall number

After commit 9854e7ad35fe ("perf arm64: Simplify mksyscalltbl"),
in the generated syscall table file syscalls.c, there exist some
__NR3264_ prefixed syscall numbers such as [__NR3264_ftruncate],
it looks like not so good, just do some small filter operations
to handle __NR3264_ prefixed syscall number as a digital number.

Without this patch:

[__NR3264_ftruncate] = "ftruncate",

With this patch:

[46] = "ftruncate",

perf arm64: Rename create_table_from_c() to create_sc_table()

After commit 9854e7ad35fecf30 ("perf arm64: Simplify mksyscalltbl") it
has been removed the temporary C program and used shell to generate
syscall table, so let us rename create_table_from_c() to
create_sc_table() to avoid confusion.

# 9854e7ad 27-Dec-2020 Hans-Peter Nilsson <hp@axis.com>

perf arm64: Simplify mksyscalltbl

This patch isn't intended to have any effect on the compiled code. It
just removes one level of indirection: calling the *host* compiler to
build and then run a program that just printf:s the numerical entries of
the syscall-table. In other words, the generated syscalls.c changes
from:

[46] = "ftruncate",
to:
[__NR3264_ftruncate] = "ftruncate",

The latter is as good as the former to the user of perf, and this can be
done directly by the shell-script. The syscalls defined as non-literal
values (like "#define __NR_ftruncate __NR3264_ftruncate") are trivially
resolved at compile-time without namespace-leaking and/or collision for
its sole user, perf/util/syscalltbl.c, that just #includes the generated
file. A future "-mabi=32" support would probably have to handle this
differently, but that is a pre-existing problem not affected by this
simplification.

Calling the *host* compiler only complicates things and accidentally can
get a completely wrong set of files and syscall numbers, see earlier
commits. Note that the script parameter hostcc is now unused.

At the time of this patch, powerpc (the origin, see comments), and also
e.g. x86 has moved on, from filtering "gcc -dM -E" output to reading
separate specific text-file, a table of syscall numbers. IMHO should
arm64 consider adopting this.

perf arm64: Fix mksyscalltbl, don't lose syscalls due to sort -nu

When using "sort -nu", arm64 syscalls were lost. That is, the io_setup
syscall (number 0) and all but one (typically ftruncate; 64) of the
syscalls that are defined symbolically (like "#define __NR_ftruncate
__NR3264_ftruncate") at the point where "sort" is applied.

This creation-of-syscalls.c-scheme is, judging from comments,
copy-pasted from powerpc, and worked there because at the time, its
tools/arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h had *literals*, like
"#define __NR_ftruncate 93".

With sort being numeric and the non-numeric key effectively evaluating
to 0, the sort option "-u" means these "duplicates" are removed.
There's no need to remove syscall lines with duplicate numbers for arm64
because there are none, so let's fix that by just losing the "-u".
Having the table numerically sorted on syscall-number for the rest of
the syscalls looks nice, so keep the "-n".

perf arm64: Fix mksyscalltbl when system kernel headers are ahead of the kernel

When a host system has kernel headers that are newer than a compiling
kernel, mksyscalltbl fails with errors such as:

<stdin>: In function 'main':
<stdin>:271:44: error: '__NR_kexec_file_load' undeclared (first use in this function)
<stdin>:271:44: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
<stdin>:272:46: error: '__NR_pidfd_send_signal' undeclared (first use in this function)
<stdin>:273:43: error: '__NR_io_uring_setup' undeclared (first use in this function)
<stdin>:274:43: error: '__NR_io_uring_enter' undeclared (first use in this function)
<stdin>:275:46: error: '__NR_io_uring_register' undeclared (first use in this function)
tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls//mksyscalltbl: line 48: /tmp/create-table-xvUQdD: Permission denied

mksyscalltbl is compiled with default host includes, but run with
compiling kernel tree includes, causing some syscall numbers to being
undeclared.

Committer testing:

Before this patch, in my cross build environment, no build problems, but
these new syscalls were not in the syscalls.c generated from the
unistd.h file, which is a bug, this patch fixes it:

perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$ tail /tmp/build/perf/arch/arm64/include/generated/asm/syscalls.c
[292] = "io_pgetevents",
[293] = "rseq",
[294] = "kexec_file_load",
[424] = "pidfd_send_signal",
[425] = "io_uring_setup",
[426] = "io_uring_enter",
[427] = "io_uring_register",
[428] = "syscalls",
};
perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$ strings /tmp/build/perf/perf | egrep '^(io_uring_|pidfd_|kexec_file)'
kexec_file_load
pidfd_send_signal
io_uring_setup
io_uring_enter
io_uring_register
perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$
$

Well, there is that last "syscalls" thing, but that looks like some
other bug.

# 5ab1de93 06-Aug-2018 Kim Phillips <kim.phillips@arm.com>

perf arm64: Fix include path for asm-generic/unistd.h

The new syscall table support for arm64 mistakenly used the system's
asm-generic/unistd.h file when processing the
tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h file's include directive:

#include <asm-generic/unistd.h>

See "Committer notes" section of commit 2b5882435606 "perf arm64:
Generate system call table from asm/unistd.h" for more details.

This patch removes the committer's temporary workaround, and instructs
the host compiler to search the build tree's include path for the right
copy of the unistd.h file, instead of the one on the system's
/usr/include path.

It thus fixes the committer's test that cross-builds an arm64 perf on an
x86 platform running Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS with an old toolchain:

$ tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl /gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc gcc `pwd`/tools tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h | grep bpf
[280] = "bpf",

perf arm64: Generate system call table from asm/unistd.h

This should speed up accessing new system calls introduced with the
kernel rather than waiting for libaudit updates to include them.

Using the existing other arch scripts resulted in this error:

tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls//mksyscalltbl: 25: printf: __NR3264_ftruncate: expected numeric value

because, unlike other arches, asm-generic's unistd.h does things like:

#define __NR_ftruncate __NR3264_ftruncate

Turning the scripts printf's %d into a %s resulted in this in the
generated syscalls.c file:

static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = {
[__NR3264_ftruncate] = "ftruncate",

So we use the host C compiler to fold the macros, and print them out
from within a temporary C program, in order to get the correct output:

static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = {
[46] = "ftruncate",

Committer notes:

Testing this with a container with an old toolchain breaks because it
ends up using the system's /usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h, included
from tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h when what is desired is
for it to include tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h.

Since all that tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h is to set a
define and then include asm-generic/unistd.h, do that directly and use
tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h as the file to get the syscall
definitions to expand.

Testing it:

tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl /gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc gcc tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h

Now works and generates in the syscall string table.

Before it ended up as:

$ tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl /gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc gcc tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h
