commit 3c1f05835cbf9fdfe60b81c718d82ceb94b6c55e upstream.

Since the ORC unwinder was made the default on x86_64, Clang-built
defconfig kernels have triggered some new objtool warnings:

  drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gpu_error.o: warning: objtool: i915_error_printf()+0x6c: return with modified stack frame
  drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.o: warning: objtool: pipe_config_err()+0xa6: return with modified stack frame

The problem is that objtool has never seen clang-built binaries before.

Shockingly enough, objtool is apparently able to follow the code flow
mostly fine, except for one instruction sequence.  Instead of a LEAVE
instruction, clang restores RSP and RBP the long way:

   67c:   48 89 ec                mov    %rbp,%rsp
   67f:   5d                      pop    %rbp

Teach objtool about this new code sequence.

[ Upstream commit fa1195ccc0af2d121abe0fe266a1caee8c265eea ]

We need to increase output offset in each iteration, not decrease it as
we currently do.

I guess we were lucky to finish in most cases in first iteration, so the
bug never showed. However it shows a lot when working with big (~4GB)
size data.

<title>perf report: Fix a no annotate browser displayed issue</title>

[ Upstream commit 40c39e3046411f84bab82f66783ff3593e2bcd9b ]

When enabling '-b' option in perf record, for example,

  perf record -b ...
  perf report

and then browsing the annotate browser from perf report (press 'A'), it
would fail (annotate browser can't be displayed).

It's because the '.add_entry_cb' op of struct report is overwritten by
hist_iter__branch_callback() in builtin-report.c. But this function doesn't do
something like mapping symbols and sources. So next, do_annotate() will return
directly.

        notes = symbol__annotation(act-&gt;ms.sym);
        if (!notes-&gt;src)
                return 0;

This patch adds the lost code to hist_iter__branch_callback (refer to
hist_iter__report_callback).

v2:

Fix a crash bug when perform 'perf report --stdio'.

The reason is that we init the symbol annotation only in browser mode, it
doesn't allocate/init resources for stdio mode.

So now in hist_iter__branch_callback(), it will return directly if it's not in
browser mode.

<title>selftests/net: fix bugs in address and port initialization</title>

[ Upstream commit d36f45e5b46723cf2d4147173e18c52d4143176d ]

Address/port initialization should work correctly regardless
of the order in which command line arguments are supplied,
E.g, cfg_port should be used to connect to the remote host
even if it is processed after -D, src/dst address initialization
should not require that [-4|-6] be specified before
the -S or -D args, receiver should be able to bind to *.&lt;cfg_port&gt;

Achieve this by making sure that the address/port structures
are initialized after all command line options are parsed.

Store cfg_port in host-byte order, and use htons()
to set up the sin_port/sin6_port before bind/connect,
so that the network system calls get the correct values
in network-byte order.

<title>perf evsel: Enable ignore_missing_thread for pid option</title>

[ Upstream commit ca8000684ec4e66f965e1f9547a3c6cb834154ca ]

While monitoring a multithread process with pid option, perf sometimes
may return sys_perf_event_open failure with 3(No such process) if any of
the process's threads die before we open the event. However, we want
perf continue monitoring the remaining threads and do not exit with
error.

Here, the patch enables perf_evsel::ignore_missing_thread for -p option
to ignore complete failure if any of threads die before we open the event.
But it may still return sys_perf_event_open failure with 22(Invalid) if we
monitors several event groups.

        sys_perf_event_open: pid 28960  cpu 40  group_fd 118202  flags 0x8
        sys_perf_event_open: pid 28961  cpu 40  group_fd 118203  flags 0x8
        WARNING: Ignored open failure for pid 28962
        sys_perf_event_open: pid 28962  cpu 40  group_fd [118203]  flags 0x8
        sys_perf_event_open failed, error -22

That is because when we ignore a missing thread, we change the thread_idx
without dealing with its fds, FD(evsel, cpu, thread). Then get_group_fd()
may return a wrong group_fd for the next thread and sys_perf_event_open()
return with 22.

        sys_perf_event_open(){
           ...
           if (group_fd != -1)
               perf_fget_light()//to get corresponding group_leader by group_fd
           ...
           if (group_leader)
              if (group_leader-&gt;ctx-&gt;task != ctx-&gt;task)//should on the same task
                   goto err_context
           ...
        }

This patch also fixes this bug by introducing perf_evsel__remove_fd() and
update_fds to allow removing fds for the missing thread.

Changes since v1:
- Change group_fd__remove() into a more genetic way without changing code logic
- Remove redundant condition

Changes since v2:
- Use a proper function name and add some comment.
- Multiline comment style fixes.

Committer testing:

Before this patch the recently added 'perf stat --per-thread' for system
wide counting would race while enumerating all threads using /proc:

  [root@jouet ~]# perf stat --per-thread
  failed to parse CPUs map: No such file or directory

   Usage: perf stat [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]

      -C, --cpu &lt;cpu&gt;       list of cpus to monitor in system-wide
      -a, --all-cpus        system-wide collection from all CPUs
  [root@jouet ~]# perf stat --per-thread
  failed to parse CPUs map: No such file or directory

   Usage: perf stat [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]

      -C, --cpu &lt;cpu&gt;       list of cpus to monitor in system-wide
      -a, --all-cpus        system-wide collection from all CPUs
  [root@jouet ~]#

When, say, the kernel was being built, so lots of shortlived threads,
after this patch this doesn't happen.

[ Upstream commit 9f5c6d8777a2d962b0eeacb2a16f37da6bea545b ]

This improve the error message so that user can know event-name error
before writing new events to kprobe-events interface.

E.g.
   ======
   #./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state*
   Internal error: "malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2" is an invalid event name.
     Error: Failed to add events.

<title>perf probe: Find versioned symbols from map</title>

[ Upstream commit 4b3a2716dd785fabb9f6ac80c1d53cb29a88169d ]

Commit d80406453ad4 ("perf symbols: Allow user probes on versioned
symbols") allows user to find default versioned symbols (with "@@") in
map. However, it did not enable normal versioned symbol (with "@") for
perf-probe.  E.g.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state
  Failed to find symbol malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so
    Error: Failed to add events.
  =====

This solves above issue by improving perf-probe symbol search function,
as below.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc_get_state
  Added new event:
    probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_get_state -aR sleep 1

  # ./perf probe -l
    probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc_get_state@GLIBC_2.2.5 in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

commit 91c49c2deb96ffc3c461eaae70219d89224076b7 upstream.

'si_pkey' is now #defined to be the name of the new siginfo field that
protection keys uses.  Rename it not to conflict.

<title>perf stat: Fix CVS output format for non-supported counters</title>

commit 40c21898ba5372c14ef71717040529794a91ccc2 upstream.

When printing stats in CSV mode, 'perf stat' appends extra separators
when a counter is not supported:

&lt;not supported&gt;,,L1-dcache-store-misses,mesos/bd442f34-2b4a-47df-b966-9b281f9f56fc,0,100.00,,,,

Which causes a failure when parsing fields. The numbers of separators
should be the same for each line, no matter if the counter is or not
supported.

commit 4b0b37d4cc54b21a6ecad7271cbc850555869c62 upstream.

glibc keeps getting cleverer, and my version now turns raise() into
more than one syscall.  Since the test relies on ptrace seeing an
exact set of syscalls, this breaks the test.  Replace raise(SIGSTOP)
with syscall(SYS_tgkill, ...) to force glibc to get out of our way.
