Elena Reshetova 6df74bc08b perf comm: Convert comm_str.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t
The refcount_t type and corresponding API should be used instead of
atomic_t when the variable is used as a reference counter.

This allows to avoid accidental refcounter overflows that might lead to
use-after-free situations.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 86c19525b7 perf comm: Use atomic.h for refcounting
Now that we have atomic.h, we should convert all of the existing
refcounts to use it.

Adrian Hunter 65de51f93e perf tools: Identify which comms are from exec
For grouping together all the data from a single execution, which is
needed for pairing calls and returns e.g. any outstanding calls when a
process exec's will never return.

Frederic Weisbecker 3178f58b98 perf tools: Do proper comm override error handling
The comm overriding API ignores memory allocation failures by silently
keeping the previous and out of date comm.

As a result, the user may get buggy events without ever being notified
about the problem and its source.

Lets start to fix this by propagating the error from the API. Not all
callers may be doing proper error handling on comm set yet but this is
the first step toward it.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 74cf249d5c perf tools: Use zfree to help detect use after free bugs
Several areas already used this technique, so do some audit to
consistently use it elsewhere.

Frederic Weisbecker 1902efe7f6 perf tools: Add new COMM infrastructure
This new COMM infrastructure provides two features:

1) It keeps track of all comms lifecycle for a given thread. This way we
can associate a timeframe to any thread COMM, as long as
PERF_SAMPLE_TIME samples are joined to COMM and fork events.

As a result we should have more precise COMM sorted hists with seperated
entries for pre and post exec time after a fork.

2) It also makes sure that a given COMM string is not duplicated but
rather shared among the threads that refer to it. This way the threads
COMM can be compared against pointer values from the sort
infrastructure.
