The symbol__annotate2() initializes some data structures needed by TUI.
It has a logic to prevent calling it multiple times by checking if it
has the annotated source. But data type profiling uses a different
code (symbol__annotate) to allocate the annotated lines in advance.
So TUI missed to call symbol__annotate2() when it shows the annotation
browser.
Make symbol__annotate() reentrant and handle that situation properly.
This fixes a crash in the annotation browser started by perf report in
TUI like below.
$ perf report -s type,sym --tui
# and press 'a' key and then move down

In 'perf report', entering a recursive function from inside of itself
(either directly of indirectly through some other function) results in
calling symbol__annotate2 multiple() times, and freeing the whole
disassembly when exiting from the innermost instance.
The first issue causes the function's disassembly to be duplicated, and
the latter a heap use-after-free (and crash) when trying to access the
disassembly again.
I reproduced the bug on perf 5.11.22 (Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS) and 5.16.rc8
with the following testcase (compile with gcc recursive.c -o recursive).
To reproduce:
- perf record ./recursive
- perf report
- enter fibonacci and annotate it
- move the cursor on one of the "callq fibonacci" instructions and press enter
- at this point there will be two copies of the function in the disassembly
- go back by pressing q, and perf will crash
#include <stdio.h>
int fibonacci(int n)
{
if(n <= 2) return 1;
return fibonacci(n-1) + fibonacci(n-2);
}
int main()
{
printf("%d\n", fibonacci(40));
}
This patch addresses the issue by annotating a function and freeing the
associated memory on exit only if no annotation is already present, so
that a recursive function is only annotated on entry.

Some x86 microarchitectures fuse a subset of cmp/test/ALU instructions
with branch instructions, and thus perf annotate highlight such valid
pairs as fused.
When annotated with source, perf uses struct disasm_line to contain
either source or instruction line from objdump output. Usually, a C
statement generates multiple instructions which include such
cmp/test/ALU + branch instruction pairs. But in case of assembly
function, each individual assembly source line generate one
instruction.
The 'perf annotate' instruction fusion logic assumes the previous
disasm_line as the previous instruction line, which is wrong because,
for assembly function, previous disasm_line contains source line. And
thus perf fails to highlight valid fused instruction pairs for assembly
functions.
Fix it by searching backward until we find an instruction line and
consider that disasm_line as fused with current branch instruction.

If the disasm is empty, 's' should fail. Instead it seemingly works,
hiding the empty lines and causing an assertion error on the next time
annotate is called (from within perf report).
The problem is caused by a buffer overflow, caused by a wrong exit
condition in annotate_browser__find_next_asm_line, which checks
browser->b.top instead of browser->b.entries.
This patch fixes the issue, making annotate_browser__toggle_source
fail if the disasm is empty (nothing happens to the user).

perf annotate --show-nr-samples does not really show number of samples.
The reason is we have two separate variables for the same purpose.
One is in symbol_conf.show_nr_samples and another is
annotation_options.show_nr_samples.
We save command line option in symbol_conf.show_nr_samples but uses
annotation_option.show_nr_samples while rendering tui/stdio2 browser.
Though, we copy symbol_conf.show_nr_samples to
annotation__default_options.show_nr_samples but that is not really
effective as we don't use annotation__default_options once we copy
default options to dynamic variable annotate.opts in cmd_annotate().
Instead of all these complication, keep only one variable and use it all
over. symbol_conf.show_nr_samples is used by perf report/top as well. So
let's kill annotation_options.show_nr_samples.
On a side note, I've kept annotation_options.show_nr_samples definition
because it's still used by perf-config code. Follow up patch to fix
perf-config for annotate will remove annotation_options.show_nr_samples.

Some compilers will complain when using a member of a struct to

oraclelinux:7 clang version 3.4.2 (tags/RELEASE_34/dot2-final)
Produce:

1 error generated.
So use an extra variable, initialized just before that struct, to have
the value used in the expressions used to init two of the struct
members.

The scripts menu traditionally only showed custom perf scripts.
Allow to run standard perf script with useful default options too.
- Normal perf script
- perf script with assembler (needs xed installed)
- perf script with source code output (needs debuginfo)
- perf script with custom arguments
Then we automatically select the right options to display the
information in the perf.data file.
For example with -b display branch contexts.
It's not easily possible to check for xed's existence in advance. perf
script usually gives sensible error messages when it's not available.

The annotation line percentage is compared and inserted into the rbtree,
but the percent field of 'struct annotation_data' is an array, the
comparison result between them is the address difference.
This patch compares the right slot of percent array according to
opts->percent_type and makes things right.
The problem can be reproduced by pressing 'H' in perf top annotation view.
It should highlight the instruction line which has the highest sampling
percentage.

We have more current function tto get the title for annotation,
which is hists__scnprintf_title. They both have same output as
far as the annotation's header line goes.
They differ in counting of the nr_samples, hists__scnprintf_title
provides more accurate number based on the setup of the
symbol_conf.filter_relative variable.
Plus it also displays any uid/thread/dso/socket filters/zooms
if there are set any, which annotation__scnprintf_samples_period
does not.
