A_IRQ: sadf: Update PCP interface for per-CPU interrupts statistics
Use the PCP instance domain convention with kernel.percpu.interrupts
where the interrupt line and cpu ID are combined. This provides the
same metric as PCP and also a single stable metric identifier (pmID).
sar/sadf: Don't reallocate buffers for activities not present in file
Buffer reallocation would fail for activities which are not in the file
being read. This is because @nr2 = -1 and @nr2 is used to compute the
memory to allocate in reallocate_all_buffers():
A_IRQ: sar: Display 0.00 when number of interrupts decreases
When a CPU goes offline, the number of interrupts among all CPU can
decrease. In this case, display a value of 0.00 instead of the huge
number that would appear otherwise.
A_IRQ: sar: Always display a header line for each sample
Make sure that the header line gets printed with each sample.
This is because CPU can go offline or come back online, and so the
header line needs to be updated accordingly.
A_IRQ: sadf: Update PCP interface for interrupts statistics
Update/create new PCP metrics for interrupts statistics:
kernel.all.intr: This is the total number of all interrupts among
all processors
kernel.all.interrupts.total: This is the total number of each interrupt
among all processors. A domain instance is created for each interrupt
("0", "1", "LOC", "CAL", etc.)
kernel.percpu.interrupts.XXX: This is the number of interrupts XXX for a
given processor. A domain instance is created for each processor (cpu0,
cpu1, etc.)
E.g.:
kernel.percpu.interrupts.sum is the total number of all interrupts for a
given processor.
kernel.percpu.interrupts.LOC is the number of LOC interrupts for a given
processor.
Metric names cannot contain digits. As a consequence,
kernel.percpu.interrupts.0 is replaced with kernel.percpu.interrupts.a
kernel.percpu.interrupts.1 is replaced with kernel.percpu.interrupts.b
kernel.percpu.interrupts.30 is replaced with kernel.percpu.interrupts.da
etc.
A_IRQ: Add new method to create the list of interrupts names
Add count_new_int() method to A_IRQ activity structure.

This version brings better integration with PCP (thanks go to Nathan
Scott).
It also adds a small improvement to the pidstat command: Using option -e

will make pidstat show global task statistics when the task terminates.
sadf: PCP: Don't check for newly registered network interfaces
It is useless to check if current network interface has just been
registered or not before displaying its PCP statistics.
This is because PCP displays the raw counter values, not their variation
over the interval. Moreover the whole list of network interfaces present
in file has been created with each one having already its instance.

Update sadf to use metadata matching the same metrics from PCP
When operating with the -l option in sadf we want to generate PCP
archives that match the PCP archives generated by pmlogger(1) as
closely as possible. The advantage to doing this is that the live
and historical modes to the PCP tools become interchangeable; i.e.
pmchart views, pmie rules, grafana-pcp dashboards, and so on, all
expect metrics named according to the PCP conventions.
The reason sadf is not already doing this (AIUI), is that it was
originally based on the sar2pcp(1) utility. This tool (which we
plan to deprecate in PCP in favour of the sysstat functionality)
used the rate-converted counter values as its starting point and
not the raw counters we have access to within sysstat itself.
I've audited all of the metrics being added to PCP archives with
the sadf -l option now, and all now align with current metadata
in PCP. I've also added a few uname(2) metrics from the record
header (in the way hinv.ncpu was already being used).
