<title>perf tests: Avoid raising SEGV using an obvious NULL dereference</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e3e2cf3d5b1fe800b032e14c0fdcd9a6fb20cf3b</id>
<content type='text'>
An optimized build such as:

  make -C tools/perf CLANG=1 CC=clang EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O3

will turn the dereference operation into a ud2 instruction, raising a
SIGILL rather than a SIGSEGV. Use raise(..) for correctness and clarity.

Similar issues were addressed in Numfor Mbiziwo-Tiapo's patch:

Before:

  [root@quaco ~]# perf test hooks

  SIGSEGV is observed as expected, try to recover.
  Fatal error (SEGFAULT) in perf hook 'test'
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  perf hooks: Ok
  [root@quaco ~]#

After:

  [root@quaco ~]# perf test hooks

the following patches.

And rename the existing perf's function to evlist__poll().

<title>perf tools: No need to include internal/lib.h from util/util.h</title>

That was done just to have users of writen() and readn(), that before
had their prototypes in util/util.h to get it without having to add an
include for internal/lib.h, but the right way is to add it and by now
all places already do it.

Fix a fallout were readlink() was used but unistd.h was being obtained
by luck thru util.h -&gt; internal/lib.h, now to check why unistd.h is
being included there...

<title>libperf: Move 'page_size' global variable to libperf</title>

<id>urn:sha1:20f2be1d48ec293b5a935595bd0c2e2915ffa77c</id>
<content type='text'>
We need the 'page_size' variable in libperf, so move it there.

Add a libperf_init() as a global libperf init function to obtain this
value via sysconf() at tool start.

Committer notes:

Add internal/lib.h to tools/perf/ files using 'page_size', sometimes
replacing util.h with it if that was the only reason for having util.h
included.

As this isn't used at all in mmap.h but in evlist.h, so to cut down the
header dependency tree, move it to where it is used.

Also add mmap.h to the places using it but previously getting it
indirectly via evlist.h.

Add missing pthread.h to evlist.h, as it has a pthread_t struct member
and was getting the header via mmap.h.

Noticed while processing a Jiri's libperf batch touching mmap.h, where
almost everything gets rebuilt because evlist.h is so popular, so cut
down't this rebuild the world party.
