Josh Poimboeuf 4b6ab94eab perf subcmd: Create subcmd library
Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named
libsubcmd.a.

Since we're moving files anyway, go ahead and rename 'exec_cmd.*' to
'exec-cmd.*' to be consistent with the naming of all the other files.

Josh Poimboeuf 2f4ce5ec1d perf tools: Finalize subcmd independence
For the files that will be moved to the subcmd library, remove all their
perf-specific includes and duplicate any needed functionality.

Josh Poimboeuf 096d35585b perf tools: Provide subcmd configuration at runtime
Create init functions for exec_cmd.c and pager.c.  This allows their
configuration to be specified at runtime so they can be split out into a
separate library which can be used by other programs.  Their
configuration is stored in a shared subcmd_config struct.

Josh Poimboeuf a871a77517 perf tools: Remove check for unused PERF_PAGER_IN_USE
PERF_PAGER_IN_USE doesn't seem to be used anywhere, so let's remove it.

This will also make it easier to move pager.c into a separate library.

Namhyung Kim 4fd113b5ce perf report: Fix some option handling on --stdio
There's a bug that perf report sometimes ignore some options on --stdio
output.  This bug is triggered only if a related config variable is set.
For example, let's assume we have a following config file.

  $ cat ~/.perfconfig
  [call-graph]
    print-type = graph
  [hist]
    percentage = absolute

Then, following perf config will not honor some options.

  $ perf record -ag sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.199 MB perf.data (77 samples) ]

  $ perf report -g none --stdio
  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
  #
  # Samples: 77  of event 'cycles'
  # Event count (approx.): 25425383
  #
  # Overhead  Command          Shared Object            Symbol
  # ........  ...............  .......................  ..............
  #
      16.34%  swapper          [kernel.vmlinux]         [k] intel_idle
                      |
                      ---intel_idle
                         cpuidle_enter_state
                         cpuidle_enter
                         cpu_startup_entry
   ...

With '-g none' option, it should not show callchains, but it still shows
callchains.  However it works as expected on --tui output.

Similarly, '--percentage relative' option is not work and still shows a
absolute percentage values.

Looking at the source, I found that those setting were overwritten by
config variables when setup_pager() called.  The setup_pager() is to
start a pager process so that it can manage long lines of output on the
stdio mode.  But as it calls the perf_config() after parsing arguments,
the settings were overwritten regardless of command line options.

The reason it calls perf_config() is to find the 'pager_program' which
might be set by a config variable, I guess.  However current perf code
does not provide the config variable for it, so it's just meaningless
IMHO.  Eliminating the call makes the option working as expected.

Michael Lentine 21cfc5e103 perf tools: Add cat as fallback pager
This patch adds a fallback to cat for the pager. This is useful
on environments, such as Android, where less does not exist.
It is better to default to cat than to abort.

Avik Sil ea1b3ebac9 perf tools: Fix pager on minimal-install embedded systems
Some Distributions may lack "less" package being included by default,
e.g., Linaro nano rootfs. In those cases use the portable "pager"
command instead of "less".

Ingo Molnar fde953c1c6 perf_counter tools: Remove dead code
Vince Weaver reported that there's a handful of #ifdef __MINGW32__
sections in the code.

Remove them as they are in essence dead code - as unlike upstream
Git, the perf tool is unlikely to be ported to Windows.

Ingo Molnar 864709302a perf_counter tools: Move from Documentation/perf_counter/ to tools/perf/
Several people have suggested that 'perf' has become a full-fledged
tool that should be moved out of Documentation/. Move it to the
(new) tools/ directory.
