perf script: Fix --reltime with --time

My earlier patch to just enable --reltime with --time was a little too
optimistic. The --time parsing would accept absolute time, which is
very confusing to the user.

Support relative time in --time parsing too. This only works with recent
perf record that records the first sample time. Otherwise we error out.

perf tools: Remove perf.h from source files not needing it

With the movement of lots of stuff out of perf.h to other headers we

perf time-utils: Treat time ranges consistently

Currently, options allow only 1 explicit (non-percentage) time range.
In preparation for adding support for multiple explicit time ranges,
treat time ranges consistently.

Instead of treating some time ranges as inclusive and some as excluding
the end time, treat all time ranges as inclusive. This is only a 1
nanosecond change but is necessary to treat multiple explicit time
ranges in a consistent manner.

Note, there is a later patch that adds a test for time-utils.

# 284c4e18 01-Mar-2019 Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com>

perf time-utils: Refactor time range parsing code

Jiri points out that we don't need any time checking and time string
parsing if the --time option is not set. That makes sense.

This patch refactors the time range parsing code, move the duplicated
code from perf report and perf script to time_utils and check if --time
option is set before parsing the time string. This patch is no logic
change expected. So the usage of --time is same as before.

For example:

Select the first and second 10% time slices:
perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2
perf script --time 10%/1,10%/2

Select the slices from 0% to 10% and from 30% to 40%:
perf report --time 0%-10%,30%-40%
perf script --time 0%-10%,30%-40%

Select the time slices from timestamp 3971 to 3973
perf report --time 3971,3973
perf script --time 3971,3973

Committer testing:

Using the above examples, check before and after to see if it remains
the same:

$ perf record -F 10000 -- find . -name "*.[ch]" -exec cat {} + > /dev/null
[ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.626 MB perf.data (42392 samples) ]
$
$ perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2 > /tmp/report.before.1
$ perf script --time 10%/1,10%/2 > /tmp/script.before.1
$ perf report --time 0%-10%,30%-40% > /tmp/report.before.2
$ perf script --time 0%-10%,30%-40% > /tmp/script.before.2
$ perf report --time 180457.375844,180457.377717 > /tmp/report.before.3
$ perf script --time 180457.375844,180457.377717 > /tmp/script.before.3

For example, the 3rd test produces this slice:

$ cat /tmp/script.before.3

perf util: Allocate time slices buffer according to number of comma

Previously we use a magic number 10 to limit the number of time slices.
It's not very good.

This patch creates a new function perf_time__range_alloc() to allocate
time slices buffer. The number of buffer entries is determined by the
number of comma in string but at least it will allocate one entry even
if no comma is found.

perf tools: Create function to perform multiple time range checking

Previous patch supports the multiple time range.

For example, select the first and second 10% time slices.
perf report --time 10%/1,10%/2

We need a function to check if a timestamp is in the ranges of
[0, 10%) and [10%, 20%].

Note that it includes the last element in [10%, 20%] but it doesn't
include the last element in [0, 10%). It's to avoid the overlap.

This patch implments a new function perf_time__ranges_skip_sample
for this checking.

# b2441318 01-Nov-2017 Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.
