When tried to probe symbol "print_data(int)", the log shows:
Symbol print_data(int) address found : afc
The found address is 0xafc - which is right with verifying the output
result from nm. Afterwards when write event, the command uses offset
0xb38 in the last log, which is a wrong address.
The dwarf_diename() gets a common function name, in above case, it
returns string "print_data". As a result, the tool parses the offset
based on the common name. This leads to probe at the wrong symbol
"print_data(Point&)".
To fix the issue, use the die_get_linkage_name() function to retrieve
the distinct linkage name - this is the mangled name for the C++ case.
Based on this unique name, the tool can get a correct offset for
probing. Based on DWARF doc, it is possible the linkage name is missed
in the DIE, it rolls back to use dwarf_diename().

During the rework of the dso structure in patch ee756ef749 an
increment was forgotten for the symtab_type in case the data for
the kernel module are compressed. This affects the probing of the
kernel modules, which fails if the data are not already cached.
Increment the value of the symtab_type to its compressed variant so the
data could be recovered successfully.

If a symbol name is longer than the maximum event length (64 bytes), the
perf tool reports error:
# perf probe -x test_cpp_mangle --add "this_is_a_very_very_long_print_data_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz(int)"
snprintf() failed: -7; the event name nbase='this_is_a_very_very_long_print_data_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz(int)' is too long
Error: Failed to add events.
An information is missed in the log that the symbol name and the event
name can be set separately. Especially, this is recommended for adding
probe for a long symbol.
This commit refines the log for reminding event syntax.

Use the info in the metadata to decide if the data source feature is
supported. The CPU MIDR must be in the CPU list for the common data
source encoding.
For the metadata version 1, it doesn't include info for MIDR. In this
case, due to absent info for making decision, print out warning to
remind users to upgrade tool and returns false.

The hashmap__for_each_entry[_safe] is accessing 'map' as if it's a

Use the regular PMU approaches with tool json events to reduce the
amount of special tool_pmu code - tool_pmu__config_terms and
tool_pmu__for_each_event_cb are removed. Some functions remain, like
tool_pmu__str_to_event, as conveniences to metricgroups. Add
tool_pmu__skip_event/tool_pmu__num_skip_events to handle the case that
tool json events shouldn't appear on certain architectures. This isn't
done in jevents.py due to complexity in the empty-pmu-events.c and
when all vendor json is built into the tool.

Add the expr literals like "#smt_on" as tool events, this allows stat
events to give the values. On my laptop with hyperthreading enabled:
```
$ perf stat -e "has_pmem,num_cores,num_cpus,num_cpus_online,num_dies,num_packages,smt_on,system_tsc_freq" true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
0 has_pmem
8 num_cores
16 num_cpus
16 num_cpus_online
1 num_dies
1 num_packages
1 smt_on
2,496,000,000 system_tsc_freq
0.001113637 seconds time elapsed
0.001218000 seconds user
0.000000000 seconds sys
```
And with hyperthreading disabled:
```
$ perf stat -e "has_pmem,num_cores,num_cpus,num_cpus_online,num_dies,num_packages,smt_on,system_tsc_freq" true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
0 has_pmem
8 num_cores
16 num_cpus
8 num_cpus_online
1 num_dies
1 num_packages
0 smt_on
2,496,000,000 system_tsc_freq
0.000802115 seconds time elapsed
0.000000000 seconds user
0.000806000 seconds sys
```
As zero matters for these values, in stat-display
should_skip_zero_counter only skip the zero value if it is not the
first aggregation index.
The tool event implementations are used in expr but not evaluated as
events for simplicity. Also core_wide isn't made a tool event as it
requires command line parameters.

Rather than treat tool events as a special kind of event, create a
tool only PMU where the events/aliases match the existing
duration_time, user_time and system_time events. Remove special
parsing and printing support for the tool events, but add function
calls for when PMU functions are called on a tool_pmu.
Move the tool PMU code in evsel into tool_pmu.c to better encapsulate
the tool event behavior in that file.

Hard coded terms like "config=10" are skipped by perf_pmu__config
assuming they were already applied to a perf_event_attr by parse
event's config_attr function. When doing a reverse number to name
lookup in perf_pmu__name_from_config, as the hardcoded terms aren't
applied the config value is incorrect leading to misses or false
matches. Fix this by adding a parameter to have perf_pmu__config apply
hardcoded terms too (not just in parse event's config_term_common).

Sample period calculation in deliver_sample_value is updated to
calculate the per-thread period delta for events that are inherit +
PERF_SAMPLE_READ. When the sampling event has this configuration, the
read_format.id is used with the tid from the sample to lookup the
storage of the previously accumulated counter total before calculating
the delta. All existing valid configurations where read_format.value
represents some global value continue to use just the read_format.id to
locate the storage of the previously accumulated total.
perf_sample_id is modified to support tracking per-thread
values, along with the existing global per-id values. In the
per-thread case, values are stored in a hash by tid within the
perf_sample_id, and are dynamically allocated as the number is not known
ahead of time.
