Andres Freund 7602e1153a Add PerfJITEventListener for perf profiling support.
This new JIT event listener supports generating profiling data for
the linux 'perf' profiling tool, allowing it to generate function and
instruction level profiles.

Currently this functionality is not enabled by default, but must be
enabled with LLVM_USE_PERF=yes.  Given that the listener has no
dependencies, it might be sensible to enable by default once the
initial issues have been shaken out.

I followed existing precedent in registering the listener by default
in lli. Should there be a decision to enable this by default on linux,
that should probably be changed.

Please note that until https://reviews.llvm.org/D47343 is resolved,
using this functionality with mcjit rather than orcjit will not
reliably work.

Disregarding the previous comment, here's an example:

$ cat /tmp/expensive_loop.c

bool stupid_isprime(uint64_t num)
{
        if (num == 2)
                return true;
        if (num < 1 || num % 2 == 0)
                return false;
        for(uint64_t i = 3; i < num / 2; i+= 2) {
                if (num % i == 0)
                        return false;
        }
        return true;
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        int numprimes = 0;

        for (uint64_t num = argc; num < 100000; num++)
        {
                if (stupid_isprime(num))
                        numprimes++;
        }

        return numprimes;
}

$ clang -ggdb -S -c -emit-llvm /tmp/expensive_loop.c -o
/tmp/expensive_loop.ll

$ perf record -o perf.data -g -k 1 ./bin/lli -jit-kind=mcjit /tmp/expensive_loop.ll 1

$ perf inject --jit -i perf.data -o perf.jit.data

$ perf report -i perf.jit.data
