commit d226b1df361988f885c298737d6019c863a25f26 upstream.

In the end of the test, there will be an error message induced by the
`ip netns del ns1` command in cleanup()

  Tests passed: 201
  Tests failed:   0
  Cannot remove namespace file "/run/netns/ns1": No such file or directory

This can even be reproduced with just `./fib_tests.sh -h` as we're
calling cleanup() on exit.

Redirect the error message to /dev/null to mute it.

V2: Update commit message and fixes tag.
V3: resubmit due to missing netdev ML in V2

Fixes: b60417a9f2b8 ("selftest: fib_tests: Always cleanup before exit")

Partially backport v6.3 commit 11f75a01448f ("selftests/memfd: add tests
for MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL MFD_EXEC") to fix an unknown type name build error.
In some systems, the __u64 typedef is not present due to differences in
system headers, causing compilation errors like this one:

fuse_test.c:64:8: error: unknown type name '__u64'
   64 | static __u64 mfd_assert_get_seals(int fd)

This header includes the  __u64 typedef which increases the likelihood
of successful compilation on a wider variety of systems.

[ Upstream commit f97b8401e0deb46ad1e4245c21f651f64f55aaa6 ]

On some distributions, the rp_filter is automatically set (=1) by
default on a netdev basis (also on VRFs).
In an SRv6 End.DT4 behavior, decapsulated IPv4 packets are routed using
the table associated with the VRF bound to that tunnel. During lookup
operations, the rp_filter can lead to packet loss when activated on the
VRF.
Therefore, we chose to make this selftest more robust by explicitly
disabling the rp_filter during tests (as it is automatically set by some
Linux distributions).

<title>selftests: seg6: disable DAD on IPv6 router cfg for srv6_end_dt4_l3vpn_test</title>

[ Upstream commit 21a933c79a33add3612808f3be4ad65dd4dc026b ]

The srv6_end_dt4_l3vpn_test instantiates a virtual network consisting of
several routers (rt-1, rt-2) and hosts.
When the IPv6 addresses of rt-{1,2} routers are configured, the Deduplicate
Address Detection (DAD) kicks in when enabled in the Linux distros running
the selftests. DAD is used to check whether an IPv6 address is already
assigned in a network. Such a mechanism consists of sending an ICMPv6 Echo
Request and waiting for a reply.
As the DAD process could take too long to complete, it may cause the
failing of some tests carried out by the srv6_end_dt4_l3vpn_test script.

To make the srv6_end_dt4_l3vpn_test more robust, we disable DAD on routers
since we configure the virtual network manually and do not need any address
deduplication mechanism at all.

<title>cpupower: Make TSC read per CPU for Mperf monitor</title>

[ Upstream commit c2adb1877b76fc81ae041e1db1a6ed2078c6746b ]

System-wide TSC read could cause a drift in C0 percentage calculation.
Because if first TSC is read and then one by one mperf is read for all
cpus, this introduces drift between mperf reading of later CPUs and TSC
reading.  To lower this drift read TSC per CPU and also just after mperf
read.  This technique improves C0 percentage calculation in Mperf monitor.

<title>perf stat: Separate bperf from bpf_profiler</title>

[ Upstream commit ecc68ee216c6c5b2f84915e1441adf436f1b019b ]

It seems that perf stat -b &lt;prog id&gt; doesn't produce any results:

    $ perf stat -e cycles -b 4 -I 10000 -vvv
    Control descriptor is not initialized
    cycles: 0 0 0
                time        counts unit      events
	10.007641640    &lt;not supported&gt;      cycles

Looks like this happens because fentry/fexit progs are getting loaded, but the
corresponding perf event is not enabled and not added into the events bpf map.
I think there is some mixing up between two type of bpf support, one for bperf
and one for bpf_profiler. Both are identified via evsel__is_bpf, based on which
perf events are enabled, but for the latter (bpf_profiler) a perf event is
required. Using evsel__is_bperf to check only bperf produces expected results:

    $ perf stat -e cycles -b 4 -I 10000 -vvv
    Control descriptor is not initialized
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    perf_event_attr:
      size                             136
      sample_type                      IDENTIFIER

	10.010091271             309426      cycles

The final numbers correspond (at least in the level of magnitude) to the
same metric obtained via bpftool.

[ Upstream commit 472832d2c000b9611feaea66fe521055c3dbf17a ]

Previously evlist__for_each_cpu() needed to iterate over the evlist in
an inner loop and call "skip" routines. Refactor this so that the
iteratr is smarter and the next function can update both the current CPU
and evsel.

By using a cpu map index, fix apparent off-by-1 in __run_perf_stat's
call to perf_evsel__close_cpu().

[ Upstream commit c160118a90d4acf335993d8d59b02ae2147a524e ]

Addresses of two data structure members were determined before
corresponding null pointer checks in the implementation of the function
“sort__sym_from_cmp”.

Thus avoid the risk for undefined behaviour by removing extra
initialisations for the local variables “from_l” and “from_r” (also
because they were already reassigned with the same value behind this
pointer check).

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
