[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.
All test pass

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.
- add a -j option for printing the dump in json
- add a -J option for pretty printing the json output
- add a -F option for specifying an output file
- add a -a option for dumping all the instructions available starting at the initial point configured with the other flags
- add tests for all cases
- refactored the instruction dumper and abstracted the actual "printing" logic. There are two writer implementations: CLI and JSON. This made the dumper itself much more readable and maintanable
sample output:
```
(lldb) thread trace dump instructions -t -a --id 100 -J

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.
- add a -j option for printing the dump in json
- add a -J option for pretty printing the json output
- add a -F option for specifying an output file
- add a -a option for dumping all the instructions available starting at the initial point configured with the other flags
- add tests for all cases
- refactored the instruction dumper and abstracted the actual "printing" logic. There are two writer implementations: CLI and JSON. This made the dumper itself much more readable and maintanable
sample output:
```
(lldb) thread trace dump instructions -t -a --id 100 -J

{
"id": 100,
"tsc": "43591204528448966"

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.
All test pass

[trace][intel pt] Introduce wall clock time for each trace item
- Decouple TSCs from trace items
- Turn TSCs into events just like CPUs. The new name is HW clock tick, wich could be reused by other vendors.
- Add a GetWallTime that returns the wall time that the trace plug-in can infer for each trace item.
- For intel pt, we are doing the following interpolation: if an instruction takes less than 1 TSC, we use that duration, otherwise, we assume the instruction took 1 TSC. This helps us avoid having to handle context switches, changes to kernel, idle times, decoding errors, etc. We are just trying to show some approximation and not the real data. For the real data, TSCs are the way to go. Besides that, we are making sure that no two trace items will give the same interpolation value. Finally, we are using as time 0 the time at which tracing started.

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.
- add a -j option for printing the dump in json
- add a -J option for pretty printing the json output
- add a -F option for specifying an output file
- add a -a option for dumping all the instructions available starting at the initial point configured with the other flags
- add tests for all cases
- refactored the instruction dumper and abstracted the actual "printing" logic. There are two writer implementations: CLI and JSON. This made the dumper itself much more readable and maintanable
sample output:
```
(lldb) thread trace dump instructions -t -a --id 100 -J

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.

[trace][intel pt] Introduce wall clock time for each trace item
- Decouple TSCs from trace items
- Turn TSCs into events just like CPUs. The new name is HW clock tick, wich could be reused by other vendors.
- Add a GetWallTime that returns the wall time that the trace plug-in can infer for each trace item.
- For intel pt, we are doing the following interpolation: if an instruction takes less than 1 TSC, we use that duration, otherwise, we assume the instruction took 1 TSC. This helps us avoid having to handle context switches, changes to kernel, idle times, decoding errors, etc. We are just trying to show some approximation and not the real data. For the real data, TSCs are the way to go. Besides that, we are making sure that no two trace items will give the same interpolation value. Finally, we are using as time 0 the time at which tracing started.

[trace][intel pt] Create a CPU change event and expose it in the dumper
Thanks to fredzhou@fb.com for coming up with this feature.
When tracing in per-cpu mode, we have information of in which cpu we are execution each instruction, which comes from the context switch trace. This diff makes this information available as a `cpu changed event`, which an additional accessor in the cursor `GetCPU()`. As cpu changes are very infrequent, any consumer should listen to cpu change events instead of querying the actual cpu of a trace item. Once a cpu change event is seen, the consumer can invoke GetCPU() to get that information. Also, it's possible to invoke GetCPU() on an arbitrary instruction item, which will return the last cpu seen. However, this call is O(logn) and should be used sparingly.
Manually tested with a sample program that starts on cpu 52, then goes to 18, and then goes back to 52.

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.
All test pass

[trace] Avoid a crash in the dumper when disassembling fails
In rare situations, disassemblying would fail that produce an invalid
InstructionSP object. We need to check that it's valid before using.
With this change, now the dumper doesn't crash with dumping instructions of
ioctl. In fact, it now dumps this output

"line": 120,
"column": 0
}
Anyway, we need to investigate why the diassembler failed disassembling that
instruction. From over 2B instructions I was disassembling today, just this
one failed, so this could be a bug in LLVM's core disassembler.

[trace][intel pt] Create a CPU change event and expose it in the dumper
Thanks to fredzhou@fb.com for coming up with this feature.
When tracing in per-cpu mode, we have information of in which cpu we are execution each instruction, which comes from the context switch trace. This diff makes this information available as a `cpu changed event`, which an additional accessor in the cursor `GetCPU()`. As cpu changes are very infrequent, any consumer should listen to cpu change events instead of querying the actual cpu of a trace item. Once a cpu change event is seen, the consumer can invoke GetCPU() to get that information. Also, it's possible to invoke GetCPU() on an arbitrary instruction item, which will return the last cpu seen. However, this call is O(logn) and should be used sparingly.
Manually tested with a sample program that starts on cpu 52, then goes to 18, and then goes back to 52.

[trace][intel pt] Create a CPU change event and expose it in the dumper
Thanks to fredzhou@fb.com for coming up with this feature.
When tracing in per-cpu mode, we have information of in which cpu we are execution each instruction, which comes from the context switch trace. This diff makes this information available as a `cpu changed event`, which an additional accessor in the cursor `GetCPU()`. As cpu changes are very infrequent, any consumer should listen to cpu change events instead of querying the actual cpu of a trace item. Once a cpu change event is seen, the consumer can invoke GetCPU() to get that information. Also, it's possible to invoke GetCPU() on an arbitrary instruction item, which will return the last cpu seen. However, this call is O(logn) and should be used sparingly.
Manually tested with a sample program that starts on cpu 52, then goes to 18, and then goes back to 52.

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.
- add a -j option for printing the dump in json
- add a -J option for pretty printing the json output
- add a -F option for specifying an output file
- add a -a option for dumping all the instructions available starting at the initial point configured with the other flags
- add tests for all cases
- refactored the instruction dumper and abstracted the actual "printing" logic. There are two writer implementations: CLI and JSON. This made the dumper itself much more readable and maintanable
sample output:
```
(lldb) thread trace dump instructions -t -a --id 100 -J

[trace][intel pt] Introduce wall clock time for each trace item
- Decouple TSCs from trace items
- Turn TSCs into events just like CPUs. The new name is HW clock tick, wich could be reused by other vendors.
- Add a GetWallTime that returns the wall time that the trace plug-in can infer for each trace item.
- For intel pt, we are doing the following interpolation: if an instruction takes less than 1 TSC, we use that duration, otherwise, we assume the instruction took 1 TSC. This helps us avoid having to handle context switches, changes to kernel, idle times, decoding errors, etc. We are just trying to show some approximation and not the real data. For the real data, TSCs are the way to go. Besides that, we are making sure that no two trace items will give the same interpolation value. Finally, we are using as time 0 the time at which tracing started.
Sample output:

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.
All test pass

[trace] Avoid a crash in the dumper when disassembling fails
In rare situations, disassemblying would fail that produce an invalid
InstructionSP object. We need to check that it's valid before using.
With this change, now the dumper doesn't crash with dumping instructions of
ioctl. In fact, it now dumps this output
{
"id": 6135,
"loadAddress": "0x7f4bfe5c7515",
"module": "libc.so.6",
"symbol": "ioctl",
"source": "glibc/2.34/src/glibc-2.34/sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S",
"line": 120,
"column": 0
}
Anyway, we need to investigate why the diassembler failed disassembling that
instruction. From over 2B instructions I was disassembling today, just this
one failed, so this could be a bug in LLVM's core disassembler.

[trace][intel pt] Create a CPU change event and expose it in the dumper
Thanks to fredzhou@fb.com for coming up with this feature.
When tracing in per-cpu mode, we have information of in which cpu we are execution each instruction, which comes from the context switch trace. This diff makes this information available as a `cpu changed event`, which an additional accessor in the cursor `GetCPU()`. As cpu changes are very infrequent, any consumer should listen to cpu change events instead of querying the actual cpu of a trace item. Once a cpu change event is seen, the consumer can invoke GetCPU() to get that information. Also, it's possible to invoke GetCPU() on an arbitrary instruction item, which will return the last cpu seen. However, this call is O(logn) and should be used sparingly.
Manually tested with a sample program that starts on cpu 52, then goes to 18, and then goes back to 52.

[trace][intel pt] Introduce wall clock time for each trace item
- Decouple TSCs from trace items
- Turn TSCs into events just like CPUs. The new name is HW clock tick, wich could be reused by other vendors.
- Add a GetWallTime that returns the wall time that the trace plug-in can infer for each trace item.
- For intel pt, we are doing the following interpolation: if an instruction takes less than 1 TSC, we use that duration, otherwise, we assume the instruction took 1 TSC. This helps us avoid having to handle context switches, changes to kernel, idle times, decoding errors, etc. We are just trying to show some approximation and not the real data. For the real data, TSCs are the way to go. Besides that, we are making sure that no two trace items will give the same interpolation value. Finally, we are using as time 0 the time at which tracing started.

[trace] Avoid a crash in the dumper when disassembling fails
In rare situations, disassemblying would fail that produce an invalid
InstructionSP object. We need to check that it's valid before using.
With this change, now the dumper doesn't crash with dumping instructions of
ioctl. In fact, it now dumps this output
{

"loadAddress": "0x7f4bfe5c7515",
"module": "libc.so.6",
"symbol": "ioctl",
"source": "glibc/2.34/src/glibc-2.34/sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S",
"line": 120,
"column": 0
}
Anyway, we need to investigate why the diassembler failed disassembling that
instruction. From over 2B instructions I was disassembling today, just this
one failed, so this could be a bug in LLVM's core disassembler.

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.
All test pass

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.
- add a -j option for printing the dump in json
- add a -J option for pretty printing the json output
- add a -F option for specifying an output file
- add a -a option for dumping all the instructions available starting at the initial point configured with the other flags
- add tests for all cases
- refactored the instruction dumper and abstracted the actual "printing" logic. There are two writer implementations: CLI and JSON. This made the dumper itself much more readable and maintanable

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.

[trace] Avoid a crash in the dumper when disassembling fails
In rare situations, disassemblying would fail that produce an invalid
InstructionSP object. We need to check that it's valid before using.
With this change, now the dumper doesn't crash with dumping instructions of
ioctl. In fact, it now dumps this output
{
"id": 6135,
"loadAddress": "0x7f4bfe5c7515",
"module": "libc.so.6",
"symbol": "ioctl",
"source": "glibc/2.34/src/glibc-2.34/sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S",
"line": 120,
"column": 0
}
Anyway, we need to investigate why the diassembler failed disassembling that
instruction. From over 2B instructions I was disassembling today, just this
one failed, so this could be a bug in LLVM's core disassembler.

[trace][intel pt] Create a CPU change event and expose it in the dumper
Thanks to fredzhou@fb.com for coming up with this feature.
When tracing in per-cpu mode, we have information of in which cpu we are execution each instruction, which comes from the context switch trace. This diff makes this information available as a `cpu changed event`, which an additional accessor in the cursor `GetCPU()`. As cpu changes are very infrequent, any consumer should listen to cpu change events instead of querying the actual cpu of a trace item. Once a cpu change event is seen, the consumer can invoke GetCPU() to get that information. Also, it's possible to invoke GetCPU() on an arbitrary instruction item, which will return the last cpu seen. However, this call is O(logn) and should be used sparingly.
Manually tested with a sample program that starts on cpu 52, then goes to 18, and then goes back to 52.

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.
- add a -j option for printing the dump in json
- add a -J option for pretty printing the json output
- add a -F option for specifying an output file
- add a -a option for dumping all the instructions available starting at the initial point configured with the other flags
- add tests for all cases
- refactored the instruction dumper and abstracted the actual "printing" logic. There are two writer implementations: CLI and JSON. This made the dumper itself much more readable and maintanable
sample output:
```

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.

[trace][intel pt] Introduce wall clock time for each trace item
- Decouple TSCs from trace items
- Turn TSCs into events just like CPUs. The new name is HW clock tick, wich could be reused by other vendors.
- Add a GetWallTime that returns the wall time that the trace plug-in can infer for each trace item.
- For intel pt, we are doing the following interpolation: if an instruction takes less than 1 TSC, we use that duration, otherwise, we assume the instruction took 1 TSC. This helps us avoid having to handle context switches, changes to kernel, idle times, decoding errors, etc. We are just trying to show some approximation and not the real data. For the real data, TSCs are the way to go. Besides that, we are making sure that no two trace items will give the same interpolation value. Finally, we are using as time 0 the time at which tracing started.

[trace][intel pt] Support events
A trace might contain events traced during the target's execution. For
example, a thread might be paused for some period of time due to context
switches or breakpoints, which actually force a context switch. Not only
that, a trace might be paused because the CPU decides to trace only a
specific part of the target, like the address filtering provided by
intel pt, which will cause pause events. Besides this case, other kinds
of events might exist.
This patch adds the method `TraceCursor::GetEvents()`` that returns the
list of events that happened right before the instruction being pointed
at by the cursor. Some refactors were done to make this change simpler.
Besides this new API, the instruction dumper now supports the -e flag
which shows pause events, like in the following example, where pauses
happened due to breakpoints.
```

4: 0x0000000000403a63 movq %rsp, %rbp
```
The `dump info` command has also been updated and now it shows the
number of instructions that have associated events.

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.
- add a -j option for printing the dump in json
- add a -J option for pretty printing the json output
- add a -F option for specifying an output file
- add a -a option for dumping all the instructions available starting at the initial point configured with the other flags
- add tests for all cases
- refactored the instruction dumper and abstracted the actual "printing" logic. There are two writer implementations: CLI and JSON. This made the dumper itself much more readable and maintanable

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.
event items. Fortunately this simplified many things
- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.

[trace][intel pt] Introduce wall clock time for each trace item
- Decouple TSCs from trace items
- Turn TSCs into events just like CPUs. The new name is HW clock tick, wich could be reused by other vendors.
- Add a GetWallTime that returns the wall time that the trace plug-in can infer for each trace item.
- For intel pt, we are doing the following interpolation: if an instruction takes less than 1 TSC, we use that duration, otherwise, we assume the instruction took 1 TSC. This helps us avoid having to handle context switches, changes to kernel, idle times, decoding errors, etc. We are just trying to show some approximation and not the real data. For the real data, TSCs are the way to go. Besides that, we are making sure that no two trace items will give the same interpolation value. Finally, we are using as time 0 the time at which tracing started.

[trace][intel pt] Create a CPU change event and expose it in the dumper
Thanks to fredzhou@fb.com for coming up with this feature.
When tracing in per-cpu mode, we have information of in which cpu we are execution each instruction, which comes from the context switch trace. This diff makes this information available as a `cpu changed event`, which an additional accessor in the cursor `GetCPU()`. As cpu changes are very infrequent, any consumer should listen to cpu change events instead of querying the actual cpu of a trace item. Once a cpu change event is seen, the consumer can invoke GetCPU() to get that information. Also, it's possible to invoke GetCPU() on an arbitrary instruction item, which will return the last cpu seen. However, this call is O(logn) and should be used sparingly.
Manually tested with a sample program that starts on cpu 52, then goes to 18, and then goes back to 52.

[trace][intel pt] Introduce wall clock time for each trace item
- Decouple TSCs from trace items
- Turn TSCs into events just like CPUs. The new name is HW clock tick, wich could be reused by other vendors.
- Add a GetWallTime that returns the wall time that the trace plug-in can infer for each trace item.
- For intel pt, we are doing the following interpolation: if an instruction takes less than 1 TSC, we use that duration, otherwise, we assume the instruction took 1 TSC. This helps us avoid having to handle context switches, changes to kernel, idle times, decoding errors, etc. We are just trying to show some approximation and not the real data. For the real data, TSCs are the way to go. Besides that, we are making sure that no two trace items will give the same interpolation value. Finally, we are using as time 0 the time at which tracing started.

[trace] Make events first class items in the trace cursor and rework errors
We want to include events with metadata, like context switches, and this
requires the API to handle events with payloads (e.g. information about
such context switches). Besides this, we want to support multiple
similar events between two consecutive instructions, like multiple
context switches. However, the current implementation is not good for this because
we are defining events as bitmask enums associated with specific
instructions. Thus, we need to decouple instructions from events and
make events actual items in the trace, just like instructions and
errors.
- Add accessors in the TraceCursor to know if an item is an event or not
- Modify from the TraceDumper all the way to DecodedThread to support
- Renamed the paused event to disabled.
- Improved the tsc handling logic. I was using an API for getting the tsc from libipt, but that was an overkill that should be used when not processing events manually, but as we are already processing events, we can more easily get the tscs.

- As part of this refactor, I also fixed and long stating issue, which is that some non decoding errors were being inserted in the decoded thread. I changed this so that TraceIntelPT::Decode returns an error if the decoder couldn't be set up proplerly. Then, errors within a trace are actual anomalies found in between instrutions.

[trace] Add an option to dump instructions in json and to a file
In order to provide simple scripting support on top of instruction traces, a simple solution is to enhance the `dump instructions` command and allow printing in json and directly to a file. The format is verbose and not space efficient, but it's not supposed to be used for really large traces, in which case the TraceCursor API is the way to go.
- add a -j option for printing the dump in json
- add a -J option for pretty printing the json output
- add a -F option for specifying an output file
- add a -a option for dumping all the instructions available starting at the initial point configured with the other flags
- add tests for all cases
- refactored the instruction dumper and abstracted the actual "printing" logic. There are two writer implementations: CLI and JSON. This made the dumper itself much more readable and maintanable

[trace][intel pt] Support events
A trace might contain events traced during the target's execution. For
example, a thread might be paused for some period of time due to context
switches or breakpoints, which actually force a context switch. Not only
that, a trace might be paused because the CPU decides to trace only a
specific part of the target, like the address filtering provided by
intel pt, which will cause pause events. Besides this case, other kinds
of events might exist.
This patch adds the method `TraceCursor::GetEvents()`` that returns the
list of events that happened right before the instruction being pointed
at by the cursor. Some refactors were done to make this change simpler.
Besides this new API, the instruction dumper now supports the -e flag
which shows pause events, like in the following example, where pauses
happened due to breakpoints.
```
thread #1: tid = 2717361
a.out`main + 20 at main.cpp:27:20
0: 0x00000000004023d9 leaq -0x1200(%rbp), %rax
[paused]
1: 0x00000000004023e0 movq %rax, %rdi
[paused]
2: 0x00000000004023e3 callq 0x403a62 ; std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> >::vector at stl_vector.h:391:7

3: 0x0000000000403a62 pushq %rbp
4: 0x0000000000403a63 movq %rsp, %rbp
```
The `dump info` command has also been updated and now it shows the
number of instructions that have associated events.
