In general a read fills 4kb so filling the buffer is a 1 in 4096
operation, move it out of the io__get_char function to avoid some
checking overhead and to better hint the function is good to inline.
For perf's IO intensive internal (non-rigorous) benchmarks there's a
small improvement to kallsyms-parsing with a default build.

filename__read_str() has its own string reading code that allocates
memory before reading into it. The memory allocated is sized at BUFSIZ
that is 8kb. Most strings are short and so most of this 8kb is wasted.
Refactor io__getline(), as io__getdelim(), so that the newline character
can be configurable and ignored in the case of filename__read_str().
Code like build_caches_for_cpu() in perf's header.c will read many strings
and hold them in a data structure, in this case multiple strings per
cache level per CPU.
Using io.h's io__getline() avoids the wasted memory as strings are
temporarily read into a buffer on the stack before being copied to a
buffer that grows 128 bytes at a time and is never sized larger than the
string.
For a 16 hyperthread system the memory consumption of "perf record
true" is reduced by 180kb, primarily through saving memory when
reading the cache information.

There are functions using __u64, so we need to have the linux/types.h
header otherwise we'll break when its not included before api/io.h.

io__getline will free the line on error but it doesn't clear the out
argument. This may lead to the line being freed twice, like in
tools/perf/util/srcline.c as detected by clang-tidy.

In situations like reading from a pipe it can be useful to have a
timeout so that the caller doesn't block indefinitely. Implement a
simple one based on poll.

'perf record' will call kallsyms__parse 4 times during startup and
process megabytes of data. This changes kallsyms__parse to use the io
library rather than fgets to improve performance of the user code by
over 8%.
Before:
Running 'internals/kallsyms-parse' benchmark:
Average kallsyms__parse took: 103.988 ms (+- 0.203 ms)
After:
Running 'internals/kallsyms-parse' benchmark:
Average kallsyms__parse took: 95.571 ms (+- 0.006 ms)
For a workload like:
$ perf record /bin/true
Run under 'perf record -e cycles:u -g' the time goes from:
Before
30.10% 1.67% perf perf [.] kallsyms__parse
After
25.55% 20.04% perf perf [.] kallsyms__parse
So a little under 5% of the start-up time is removed. A lot of what
remains is on the kernel side, but caching kallsyms within perf would at
least impact memory footprint.
Committer notes:
The internal/kallsyms-parse bench is run using:
[root@five ~]# perf bench internals kallsyms-parse
# Running 'internals/kallsyms-parse' benchmark:
Average kallsyms__parse took: 80.381 ms (+- 0.115 ms)
[root@five ~]#
And this pre-existing test uses these routines to parse kallsyms and
then compare with the info obtained from the matching ELF symtab:
[root@five ~]# perf test vmlinux
1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms : Ok
[root@five ~]#
Also we can't remove hex2u64() in this patch as this breaks the build:
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/build/perf/perf-in.o: in function `modules__parse':
/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/symbol.c:607: undefined reference to `hex2u64'
/usr/bin/ld: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/symbol.c:607: undefined reference to `hex2u64'

/usr/bin/ld: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/symbol.c:1483: undefined reference to `hex2u64'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Leave it there, move it in the next patch.

The synthesize benchmark shows the majority of execution time going to
fgets and sscanf, necessary to parse /proc/pid/maps. Add a new buffered
reading library that will be used to replace these calls in a follow-up
CL. Add tests for the library to perf test.
