writeback instrumentation: remove duplicated structures

Don't replicate internal structures from the kernel: this is asking for
serious trouble, and could lead to breakage if building on newer kernels
that have modified structures.

Fix: statedump hang/too early completion due to logic error

The previous "Fix: statedump hang due to incorrect wait/wakeup use" was
not actually fixing the real problem.

The issue is that we should pass the expected condition to wait_event()
rather than its contrary.

This bug has been sitting there for a while. I suspect that a recent
change in the Linux scheduler behavior for newly spawned worker threads
might have contributed to trigger the hang more reliably.

The effects of this bugs are:
- possible hang of the lttng-sessiond (within the kernel) at tracing
  start,
- the statedump end event is traced before all worker threads have
  actually completed, which can confuse LTTng viewer state systems.

ABI with support for compat 32/64 bits

The current ABI does not work for compat 32/64 bits.
This patch moves the current ABI as old-abi and provides a new ABI in
which all the structures exchanged between user and kernel-space are
packed. Also this new ABI moves the "int overwrite" member of the
struct lttng_kernel_channel to remove the alignment added by the
compiler.

A patch for lttng-tools has been developed in parallel to this one to
support the new ABI. These 2 patches have been tested in all
possible configurations (applied or not) on 64-bit and 32-bit kernels
(with CONFIG_COMPAT) and a user-space in 32 and 64-bit.

Here are the results of the tests :
k 64 compat     | u 32 compat     | OK
k 64 compat     | u 64 compat     | OK
k 64 compat     | u 32 non-compat | KO
k 64 compat     | u 64 non-compat | OK

k 64 non-compat | u 64 compat     | OK
k 64 non-compat | u 32 compat     | KO
k 64 non-compat | u 64 non-compat | OK
k 64 non-compat | u 32 non-compat | KO

k 32 compat     | u compat        | OK
k 32 compat     | u non-compat    | OK

k 32 non-compat | u compat        | OK
k 32 non-compat | u non-compat    | OK

The results are as expected :
- on 32-bit user-space and kernel, every configuration works.
- on 64-bit user-space and kernel, every configuration works.
- with 32-bit user-space on a 64-bit kernel the only configuration
  where it works is when the compat patch is applied everywhere.

Fix ring_buffer_frontend.c: missing include lttng-tracer-core.h

leading to no alignment offset being recorded after the call to
config->cb.record_header_size() in lib_ring_buffer_try_reserve_slow().

However, lttng-ring-buffer-client.h does define RING_BUFFER_ALIGN, so
the alignment offset will be produced when the packet header is written
in lttng_write_event_header().

This discrepancy may be observed on architectures that don't set
CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, such as ARM, with a babeltrace
error such as:

babeltrace: ../../include/babeltrace/ctf/types.h:206: ctf_pos_get_event:
Assertion `pos->offset <= pos->content_size' failed.
Aborted

indicating that the actual content size differs from the calculated one
due to the difference in alignment.  Including the appropriate header
file in ring_buffer_frontend.c solves the problem.

Fix: lttng_statedump_process_state for each PID NS has infinite loop

Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>

lttng_statedump_process_state for each PID NS

When a process is in a namespace, its pid, tid and ppid are relative to
the namespace. Since namespaces can be nested, we need to know the
representation of each process in each namespace.

This patch changes the lttng_enumerate_task_fd to iterate over each
PID namespace of a process if any, that way we generate, in the
statedump, an entry for each process in each namespace it belongs.
To know the nesting level, the field "level" is added to the
lttng_statedump_process_state event, 0 being the top-level.
For processes running on the top-level namespace, the statedump
behaviour is unchanged (except the added "level" field).

For example (no nesting, just one level of namespace) :
lttng_statedump_process_state: {
        tid = 32185, vtid = 1, pid = 32185,
        vpid = 1, ppid = 32173, vppid = 0,
        level = 1, name = "init" }
lttng_statedump_process_state: {
        tid = 32185, vtid = 32185, pid = 32185,
        vpid = 32185, ppid = 32173, vppid = 32173,
        level = 0, name = "init" }

Confirmed that the process 32173 in the top-level namespace is indeed
the lxc-start command that created the container and its namespace.

Makes write operation a parameter for tp_memcpy macro

Memcpy source can be either user-space or kernel-space. To avoid code
duplication, this patch makes the operation a parameter to the macros.
Available macros are thus:

* tp_memcpy:               kernel-space array copy
* tp_memcpy_from_user:     user-space array copy
* tp_memcpy_dyn:           kernel-space sequence copy
* tp_memcpy_dyn_from_user: user-space sequence copy

Those are TP_fast_assign macros that can be used with __dynamic_array
macros in TP_STRUCT__entry in a TRACE_EVENT.
