perf stat: Fix handling of unsupported cgroup events when using BPF counters

When --for-each-cgroup option is used, it fails when any of events is
not supported and exits immediately. This is not how 'perf stat'
handles unsupported events.

Let's ignore the failure and proceed with others so that the output is
similar to when BPF counters are not used:

Before:

$ sudo ./perf stat -a --bpf-counters -e L1-icache-loads,L1-dcache-loads --for-each-cgroup system.slice,user.slice sleep 1
Failed to open first cgroup events
$

After it shows output similat to when --bpf-counters isn't specified:

$ sudo ./perf stat -a --bpf-counters -e L1-icache-loads,L1-dcache-loads --for-each-cgroup system.slice,user.slice sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

<not supported> L1-icache-loads system.slice
29,892,418 L1-dcache-loads system.slice
<not supported> L1-icache-loads user.slice
52,497,220 L1-dcache-loads user.slice
$

perf stat: Use evsel->core.cpus to iterate cpus in BPF cgroup counters

If it mixes core and uncore events, each evsel would have different cpu map.
But it assumed they are same with evlist's all_cpus and accessed by the same
index. This resulted in a crash like below.

$ perf stat -a --bpf-counters --for-each_cgroup ^. -e cycles,imc/cas_count_read/ sleep 1
Segmentation fault

While it's not recommended to use uncore events for cgroup aggregation, it
should not crash.

perf stat: Fix cpu map index in bperf cgroup code

The previous cpu map introduced a bug in the bperf cgroup counter. This
results in a failure when user gives a partial cpu map starting from
non-zero.

$ sudo ./perf stat -C 1-2 --bpf-counters --for-each-cgroup ^. sleep 1
libbpf: prog 'on_cgrp_switch': failed to create BPF link for perf_event FD 0:
-9 (Bad file descriptor)
Failed to attach cgroup program

To get the FD of an evsel, it should use a map index not the CPU number.

perf cpumap: Switch to using perf_cpu_map API

Switch some raw accesses to the cpu map to using the library API. This
can help with reference count checking. Some BPF cases switch from index
to CPU for consistency, this shouldn't matter as the CPU map is full.

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

libperf: Move 'idx' from tools/perf to perf_evsel::idx

Move evsel::idx to perf_evsel::idx, so we can move the group interface
to libperf.

Committer notes:

Fixup evsel->idx usage in tools/perf/util/bpf_counter_cgroup.c, that
appeared in my tree in my local tree.

Also fixed up these:

$ find tools/perf/ -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep 'evsel->idx'
tools/perf/ui/gtk/annotate.c: evsel->idx + i);
tools/perf/ui/gtk/annotate.c: evsel->idx);
$

That running 'make -C tools/perf build-test' caught.

# 944138f0 01-Jul-2021 Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

perf stat: Enable BPF counter with --for-each-cgroup

Recently bperf was added to use BPF to count perf events for various
purposes. This is an extension for the approach and targetting to
cgroup usages.

Unlike the other bperf, it doesn't share the events with other
processes but it'd reduce unnecessary events (and the overhead of
multiplexing) for each monitored cgroup within the perf session.

When --for-each-cgroup is used with --bpf-counters, it will open
cgroup-switches event per cpu internally and attach the new BPF
program to read given perf_events and to aggregate the results for
cgroups. It's only called when task is switched to a task in a
different cgroup.
