The test_core will skip the

'cpu' controller missing in root's subtree_control. In fact we need to
set the 'cpu' in subtree_control, to make the testing meaningful.

[ Upstream commit 00e38a5d753d7788852f81703db804a60a84c26e ]

The cgroup testing relys on the root cgroup's subtree_control setting,
If the 'memory' controller isn't set, some test cases will be failed
as following:

$sudo  ./test_core
not ok 1 test_cgcore_internal_process_constraint
ok 2 test_cgcore_top_down_constraint_enable
not ok 3 test_cgcore_top_down_constraint_disable
...

To correct this unexpected failure, this patch write the 'memory' to
subtree_control of root to get a right result.

<title>objtool: Support per-function rodata sections</title>

<id>6a997c3a239ab7adda6a74196b4b8f5e333465e6</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 4a60aa05a0634241ce17f957bf9fb5ac1eed6576 upstream.

Add support for processing switch jump tables in objects with multiple
.rodata sections, such as those created by '-ffunction-sections' and
'-fdata-sections'.  Currently, objtool always looks in .rodata for jump
table information, which results in many "sibling call from callable
instruction with modified stack frame" warnings with objects compiled
using those flags.

The fix is comprised of three parts:

1. Flagging all .rodata sections when importing ELF information for
   easier checking later.

2. Keeping a reference to the section each relocation is from in order
   to get the list_head for the other relocations in that section.

3. Finding jump tables by following relocations to .rodata sections,
   rather than always referencing a single global .rodata section.

The patch has been tested without data sections enabled and no
differences in the resulting orc unwind information were seen.

Note that as objtool adds terminators to end of each .text section the
unwind information generated between a function+data sections build and
a normal build aren't directly comparable. Manual inspection suggests
that objtool is now generating the correct information, or at least
making more of an effort to do so than it did previously.

<title>perf record: Fix s390 missing module symbol and warning for non-root users</title>

[ Upstream commit 6738028dd57df064b969d8392c943ef3b3ae705d ]

Command 'perf record' and 'perf report' on a system without kernel
debuginfo packages uses /proc/kallsyms and /proc/modules to find
addresses for kernel and module symbols. On x86 this works for root and
non-root users.

On s390, when invoked as non-root user, many of the following warnings
are shown and module symbols are missing:

    proc/{kallsyms,modules} inconsistency while looking for
        "[sha1_s390]" module!

Command 'perf record' creates a list of module start addresses by
parsing the output of /proc/modules and creates a PERF_RECORD_MMAP
record for the kernel and each module. The following function call
sequence is executed:

  machine__create_kernel_maps
    machine__create_module
      modules__parse
        machine__create_module --&gt; for each line in /proc/modules
          arch__fix_module_text_start

Function arch__fix_module_text_start() is s390 specific. It opens
file /sys/module/&lt;name&gt;/sections/.text to extract the module's .text
section start address. On s390 the module loader prepends a header
before the first section, whereas on x86 the module's text section
address is identical the the module's load address.

However module section files are root readable only. For non-root the
read operation fails and machine__create_module() returns an error.
Command perf record does not generate any PERF_RECORD_MMAP record
for loaded modules. Later command perf report complains about missing
module maps.

To fix this function arch__fix_module_text_start() always returns
success. For root users there is no change, for non-root users
the module's load address is used as module's text start address
(the prepended header then counts as part of the text section).

This enable non-root users to use module symbols and avoid the
warning when perf report is executed.

Output before:

  [tmricht@m83lp54 perf]$ ./perf report -D | fgrep MMAP
  0 0x168 [0x50]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP ... x [kernel.kallsyms]_text

[ Upstream commit 6584140ba9e6762dd7ec73795243289b914f31f9 ]

It seems that the current code lacks holding the namespace lock in
thread__namespaces().  Otherwise it can see inconsistent results.

[ Upstream commit 97acec7df172cd1e450f81f5e293c0aa145a2797 ]

This strncat() is safe because the buffer was allocated with zalloc(),
however gcc doesn't know that. Since the string always has 4 non-null
bytes, just use memcpy() here.

[ Upstream commit 82ce6eb1dd13fd12e449b2ee2c2ec051e6f52c43 ]

A test for the basic NAT functionality uses ip command which needs veth
device. There is a condition where the kernel support for veth is not
compiled into the kernel and the test script breaks. This patch contains
code for reasonable error display and correct code exit.

<title>tools/kvm_stat: fix fields filter for child events</title>

<id>2399b2ac2be75a09e2bee2dd23cb0cd74c119712</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 883d25e70b2f699fed9017e509d1ef8e36229b89 ]

The fields filter would not work with child fields, as the respective
parents would not be included. No parents displayed == no childs displayed.
To reproduce, run on s390 (would work on other platforms, too, but would
require a different filter name):
- Run 'kvm_stat -d'
- Press 'f'
- Enter 'instruct'
Notice that events like instruction_diag_44 or instruction_diag_500 are not
displayed - the output remains empty.
With this patch, we will filter by matching events and their parents.
However, consider the following example where we filter by
instruction_diag_44:

  kvm statistics - summary
                   regex filter: instruction_diag_44
   Event                                         Total %Total CurAvg/s
   exit_instruction                                276  100.0       12
     instruction_diag_44                           256   92.8       11
   Total                                           276              12

Note that the parent ('exit_instruction') displays the total events, but
the childs listed do not match its total (256 instead of 276). This is
intended (since we're filtering all but one child), but might be confusing
on first sight.
