[ Upstream commit 4e4cf62b37da5ff45c904a3acf242ab29ed5881d ]

Running the 'perf test' command after building perf with a memory
sanitizer causes a warning that says:

  WARNING: MemorySanitizer: use-of-uninitialized-value... in mmap-thread-lookup.c

Initializing the go variable to 0 silences this harmless warning.

Committer warning:

This was harmless, just a simple test writing whatever was at that
sizeof(int) memory area just to signal another thread blocked reading
that file created with pipe(). Initialize it tho so that we don't get
this warning.

[ Upstream commit 208a68c8393d6041a90862992222f3d7943d44d6 ]

On some machines, iio-sensor-proxy was returning all 0's for IIO sensor
values. It turns out that the bits_used for this sensor is 32, which makes
the mask calculation:

*mask = (1 &lt;&lt; 32) - 1;

If the compiler interprets the 1 literals as 32-bit ints, it generates
undefined behavior depending on compiler version and optimization level.
On my system, it optimizes out the shift, so the mask value becomes

*mask = (1) - 1;

With a mask value of 0, iio-sensor-proxy will always return 0 for every axis.

Avoid incorrect 0 values caused by compiler optimization.

<title>perf evsel: Make perf_evsel__name() accept a NULL argument</title>

In which case it simply returns "unknown", like when it can't figure out
the evsel-&gt;name value.

This makes this code more robust and fixes a problem in 'perf trace'
where a NULL evsel was being passed to a routine that only used the
evsel for printing its name when a invalid syscall id was passed.

[ Upstream commit 04507c0a9385cc8280f794a36bfff567c8cc1042 ]

To set frequency on specific cpus using cpupower, following syntax can
be used :
cpupower -c #i frequency-set -f #f -r

While setting frequency using cpupower frequency-set command, if we use
'-r' option, it is expected to set frequency for all cpus related to
cpu #i. But it is observed to be missing the last cpu in related cpu
list. This patch fixes the problem.

commit b6313899f4ed2e76b8375cf8069556f5b94fbff0 upstream.

Since we make sure the destination buffer has at least strlen(orig) + 1,
no need to do a strncpy(dest, orig, strlen(orig)), just use strcpy(dest,
orig).

This silences this gcc 8.2 warning on Alpine Linux:

<title>perf ui helpline: Use strlcpy() as a shorter form of strncpy() + explicit set nul</title>

commit 4d0f16d059ddb91424480d88473f7392f24aebdc upstream.

The strncpy() function may leave the destination string buffer
unterminated, better use strlcpy() that we have a __weak fallback
implementation for systems without it.

In this case we are actually setting the null byte at the right place,
but since we pass the buffer size as the limit to strncpy() and not
it minus one, gcc ends up warning us about that, see below. So, lets
just switch to the shorter form provided by strlcpy().

This fixes this warning on an Alpine Linux Edge system with gcc 8.2:

  ui/tui/helpline.c: In function 'tui_helpline__push':
  ui/tui/helpline.c:27:2: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 512 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]

commit ba4aa02b417f08a0bee5e7b8ed70cac788a7c854 upstream.

So that we reduce the difference of tools/include/linux/bitops.h to the
original kernel file, include/linux/bitops.h, trying to remove the need
to define BITS_PER_LONG, to avoid clashes with asm/bitsperlong.h.

And the things removed from tools/include/linux/bitops.h are really in
linux/bits.h, so that we can have a copy and then
tools/perf/check_headers.sh will tell us when new stuff gets added to
linux/bits.h so that we can check if it is useful and if any adjustment
needs to be done to the tools/{include,arch}/ copies.

commit ba4aa02b417f08a0bee5e7b8ed70cac788a7c854 upstream.

So that we reduce the difference of tools/include/linux/bitops.h to the
original kernel file, include/linux/bitops.h, trying to remove the need
to define BITS_PER_LONG, to avoid clashes with asm/bitsperlong.h.

And the things removed from tools/include/linux/bitops.h are really in
linux/bits.h, so that we can have a copy and then
tools/perf/check_headers.sh will tell us when new stuff gets added to
linux/bits.h so that we can check if it is useful and if any adjustment
needs to be done to the tools/{include,arch}/ copies.

commit 6dcca6df4b73d409628c7b4464c63d4eb9d4d13a upstream.

When we switched to the kernel's roundup_pow_of_two we forgot to remove
this include from util.h, do it now.

[ Upstream commit bf561d3c13423fc54daa19b5d49dc15fafdb7acc ]

While cross building perf to the ARC architecture on a fedora 30 host,
we were failing with:

      CC       /tmp/build/perf/bench/numa.o
  bench/numa.c: In function ‘worker_thread’:
  bench/numa.c:1261:12: error: ‘RUSAGE_THREAD’ undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean ‘SIGEV_THREAD’?
    getrusage(RUSAGE_THREAD, &amp;rusage);
              ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
              SIGEV_THREAD
  bench/numa.c:1261:12: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

[perfbuilder@60d5802468f6 perf]$ /arc_gnu_2019.03-rc1_prebuilt_uclibc_le_archs_linux_install/bin/arc-linux-gcc --version | head -1
arc-linux-gcc (ARCv2 ISA Linux uClibc toolchain 2019.03-rc1) 8.3.1 20190225
[perfbuilder@60d5802468f6 perf]$

Trying to reproduce a report by Vineet, I noticed that, with just
cross-built zlib and numactl libraries, I ended up with the above
failure.

So, since RUSAGE_THREAD is available as a define, check for that and
numactl libraries, I ended up with the above failure.

So, since RUSAGE_THREAD is available as a define in the system headers,
check if it is defined in the 'perf bench numa' sources and define it if
not.

Now it builds and I have to figure out if the problem reported by Vineet
only takes place if we have libelf or some other library available.
