[ Upstream commit 21a1994b6492b12e55dbf39d15271430ef6839f0 ]

Monitor's automata definition is only used locally, so make dot2c generate
a static definition.

commit 6cef7dab3e2e5cb23a13569c3880c0532326748c upstream.

User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, so when tracing selected CPUs,
system-wide sideband is still needed, however evlist-&gt;core.has_user_cpus
is not set in the hybrid case, so check the target cpu_list instead.

commit 5a3d47071f0ced0431ef82a5fb6bd077ed9493db upstream.

uClibc segfaulted because NULL was passed as the format to fprintf().

That happened because one of the format strings was missing and
intel_pt_print_info() didn't check that before calling fprintf().

Add the missing format string, and check format is not NULL before calling
fprintf().

<title>perf: Skip and warn on unknown format 'configN' attrs</title>

commit e552b7be12ed62357df84392efa525ecb01910fb upstream.

If the kernel exposes a new perf_event_attr field in a format attr, perf
will return an error stating the specified PMU can't be found. For
example, a format attr with 'config3:0-63' causes an error as config3 is
unknown to perf. This causes a compatibility issue between a newer
kernel with older perf tool.

Before this change with a kernel adding 'config3' I get:

  $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true
  event syntax error: 'arm_spe//'
                       \___ Cannot find PMU `arm_spe'. Missing kernel support?
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]
      or: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] -- &lt;command&gt; [&lt;options&gt;]

      -e, --event &lt;event&gt;   event selector. use 'perf list' to list
  available events

After this change, I get:

  $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true
  WARNING: 'arm_spe_0' format 'inv_event_filter' requires 'perf_event_attr::config3' which is not supported by this version of perf!
  [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.091 MB perf.data ]

To support unknown configN formats, rework the YACC implementation to
pass any config[0-9]+ format to perf_pmu__new_format() to handle with a
warning.

[ Upstream commit 5c152c2f66f9368394b89ac90dc7483476ef7b88 ]

When arm64 signal context data overflows the base struct sigcontext it gets
placed in an extra buffer pointed to by a record of type EXTRA_CONTEXT in
the base struct sigcontext which is required to be the last record in the
base struct sigframe. The current validation code attempts to check this
by using GET_RESV_NEXT_HEAD() to step forward from the current record to
the next but that is a macro which assumes it is being provided with a
struct _aarch64_ctx and uses the size there to skip forward to the next
record. Instead validate_extra_context() passes it a struct extra_context
which has a separate size field. This compiles but results in us trying
to validate a termination record in completely the wrong place, at best
failing validation and at worst just segfaulting. Fix this by passing
the struct _aarch64_ctx we meant to into the macro.

[ Upstream commit c09eb2e578eb1668bbc84dc07e8d8bd6f04b9a02 ]

Martynas reported bpf_get_func_ip returning +4 address when
CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT option is enabled.

When CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT is enabled we'll have endbr instruction
at the function entry, which screws return value of bpf_get_func_ip()
helper that should return the function address.

There's short term workaround for kprobe_multi bpf program made by
Alexei [1], but we need this fixup also for bpf_get_attach_cookie,
that returns cookie based on the entry_ip value.

Moving the fixup in the fprobe handler, so both bpf_get_func_ip
and bpf_get_attach_cookie get expected function address when
CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT option is enabled.

Also renaming kprobe_multi_link_handler entry_ip argument to fentry_ip
so it's clearer this is an ftrace __fentry__ ip.

[ Upstream commit 103d002fb7d548fb1187e350f2b73788558128b9 ]

Free the created fd or allocated bpf_object after test case succeeds,
else there will be resource leaks.

Spotted by using address sanitizer and checking the content of
/proc/$pid/fd directory.

[ Upstream commit 0e4d354762cefd3e16b4cff8988ff276e45effc4 ]

The IP_UNICAST_IF socket option is used to set the outgoing interface
for outbound packets.

The IP_UNICAST_IF socket option was added as it was needed by the
Wine project, since no other existing option (SO_BINDTODEVICE socket
option, IP_PKTINFO socket option or the bind function) provided the
needed characteristics needed by the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option. [1]
The IP_UNICAST_IF socket option works well for unconnected sockets,
that is, the interface specified by the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option
is taken into consideration in the route lookup process when a packet
is being sent. However, for connected sockets, the outbound interface
is chosen when connecting the socket, and in the route lookup process
which is done when a packet is being sent, the interface specified by
the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option is being ignored.

This inconsistent behavior was reported and discussed in an issue
opened on systemd's GitHub project [2]. Also, a bug report was
submitted in the kernel's bugzilla [3].

To understand the problem in more detail, we can look at what happens
for UDP packets over IPv4 (The same analysis was done separately in
the referenced systemd issue).
When a UDP packet is sent the udp_sendmsg function gets called and
the following happens:

1. The oif member of the struct ipcm_cookie ipc (which stores the
output interface of the packet) is initialized by the ipcm_init_sk
function to inet-&gt;sk.sk_bound_dev_if (the device set by the
SO_BINDTODEVICE socket option).

2. If the IP_PKTINFO socket option was set, the oif member gets
overridden by the call to the ip_cmsg_send function.

3. If no output interface was selected yet, the interface specified
by the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option is used.

4. If the socket is connected and no destination address is
specified in the send function, the struct ipcm_cookie ipc is not
taken into consideration and the cached route, that was calculated in
the connect function is being used.

Thus, for a connected socket, the IP_UNICAST_IF sockopt isn't taken
into consideration.

This patch corrects the behavior of the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option
for connect()ed sockets by taking into consideration the
IP_UNICAST_IF sockopt when connecting the socket.

In order to avoid reconnecting the socket, this option is still
ignored when applied on an already connected socket until connect()
is called again by the Richard Gobert.

Change the __ip4_datagram_connect function, which is called during
socket connection, to take into consideration the interface set by
the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option, in a similar way to what is done in
the udp_sendmsg function.

<title>bpftool: Clear errno after libcap's checks</title>

[ Upstream commit cea558855c39b7f1f02ff50dcf701ca6596bc964 ]

When bpftool is linked against libcap, the library runs a "constructor"
function to compute the number of capabilities of the running kernel
[0], at the beginning of the execution of the program. As part of this,
it performs multiple calls to prctl(). Some of these may fail, and set
errno to a non-zero value:

    # strace -e prctl ./bpftool version
    prctl(PR_CAPBSET_READ, CAP_MAC_OVERRIDE) = 1
    prctl(PR_CAPBSET_READ, 0x30 /* CAP_??? */) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
    prctl(PR_CAPBSET_READ, CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE) = 1
    prctl(PR_CAPBSET_READ, 0x2c /* CAP_??? */) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
    prctl(PR_CAPBSET_READ, 0x2a /* CAP_??? */) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
    prctl(PR_CAPBSET_READ, 0x29 /* CAP_??? */) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
    ** fprintf added at the top of main(): we have errno == 1
    ./bpftool v7.0.0
    using libbpf v1.0
    features: libbfd, libbpf_strict, skeletons
    +++ exited with 0 +++

This has been addressed in libcap 2.63 [1], but until this version is
available everywhere, we can fix it on bpftool side.

Let's clean errno at the beginning of the main() function, to make sure
that these checks do not interfere with the batch mode, where we error
out if errno is set after a bpftool command.
