commit f833470c27832136d4416d8fc55d658082af0989 upstream.

Before the previous commit, 'signal' endpoints with the 'backup' flag
were ignored when sending the MP_JOIN.

The MPTCP Join selftest has then been modified to validate this case:
the "single address, backup" test, is now validating the MP_JOIN with a
backup flag as it is what we expect it to do with such name. The
previous version has been kept, but renamed to "single address, switch
to backup" to avoid confusions.

The "single address with port, backup" test is also now validating the
MPJ with a backup flag, which makes more sense than checking the switch
to backup with an MP_PRIO.

The "mpc backup both sides" test is now validating that the backup flag
is also set in MP_JOIN from and to the addresses used in the initial
subflow, using the special ID 0.

The 'Fixes' tag here below is the same as the one from the previous
commit: this patch here is not fixing anything wrong in the selftests,
but it validates the previous fix for an issue introduced by this commit
ID.

commit 935ff5bb8a1cfcdf8e60c8f5c794d0bbbc234437 upstream.

A peer can notify the other one that a subflow has to be treated as
"backup" by two different ways: either by sending a dedicated MP_PRIO
notification, or by setting the backup flag in the MP_JOIN handshake.

The selftests were previously monitoring the former, but not the latter.
This is what is now done here by looking at these new MIB counters when
validating the 'backup' cases:

  MPTcpExtMPJoinSynBackupRx
  MPTcpExtMPJoinSynAckBackupRx

The 'Fixes' tag here below is the same as the one from the previous
commit: this patch here is not fixing anything wrong in the selftests,
but it will help to validate a new fix for an issue introduced by this

commit 7c70bcc2a84cf925f655ea1ac4b8088062b144a3 upstream.

In main_loop_s function, when the open(cfg_input, O_RDONLY) function is
run, the last fd is not closed if the "--cfg_repeat &gt; 0" branch is not
taken.

[ Upstream commit 4c17736689ccfc44ec7dcc472577f25c34cf8724 ]

With 0dd5041c9a0e ("perf addr_location: Add init/exit/copy functions"),
when cpumode is 3 (macro PERF_RECORD_MISC_HYPERVISOR),
thread__find_map() could return with al-&gt;maps being NULL.

The path below could add a callchain_cursor_node with NULL ms.maps.

add_callchain_ip()
  thread__find_symbol(.., &amp;al)
    thread__find_map(.., &amp;al)   // al-&gt;maps becomes NULL
  ms.maps = maps__get(al.maps)
  callchain_cursor_append(..., &amp;ms, ...)
    node-&gt;ms.maps = maps__get(ms-&gt;maps)

Then the path below would dereference NULL maps and get segfault.

fill_callchain_info()
  maps__machine(node-&gt;ms.maps);

Fix it by checking if maps is NULL in fill_callchain_info().

[ Upstream commit 189f1a976e426011e6a5588f1d3ceedf71fe2965 ]

For all these years libbpf's BTF dumper has been emitting not strictly
valid syntax for function prototypes that have no input arguments.

Instead of `int (*blah)()` we should emit `int (*blah)(void)`.

This is not normally a problem, but it manifests when we get kfuncs in
vmlinux.h that have no input arguments. Due to compiler internal
specifics, we get no BTF information for such kfuncs, if they are not
declared with proper `(void)`.

The fix is trivial. We also need to adjust a few ancient tests that
happily assumed `()` is correct.

[ Upstream commit e1ef78dce9b7b0fa7f9d88bb3554441d74d33b34 ]

On ARM64 the stack pointer should be aligned at a 16 byte boundary or
the SPAlignmentFault can occur. The fexit_sleep selftest allocates the
stack for the child process as a character array, this is not guaranteed
to be aligned at 16 bytes.

Because of the SPAlignmentFault, the child process is killed before it
can do the nanosleep call and hence fentry_cnt remains as 0. This causes
the main thread to hang on the following line:

while (READ_ONCE(fexit_skel-&gt;bss-&gt;fentry_cnt) != 2);

Fix this by allocating the stack using mmap() as described in the
example in the man page of clone().

Remove the fexit_sleep test from the DENYLIST of arm64.

This happens because GCC doesn't define __ppc__ for 64-bit builds, only
32-bit builds. Instead use __powerpc__ to detect powerpc builds, which
is defined by clang and GCC for 64-bit and 32-bit builds.

<title>perf stat: Fix the hard-coded metrics calculation on the hybrid</title>

commit 3612ca8e2935c4c142d99e33b8effa7045ce32b5 upstream.

The hard-coded metrics is wrongly calculated on the hybrid machine.

$ perf stat -e cycles,instructions -a sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

        18,205,487      cpu_atom/cycles/
         9,733,603      cpu_core/cycles/
         9,423,111      cpu_atom/instructions/     #  0.52  insn per cycle
         4,268,965      cpu_core/instructions/     #  0.23  insn per cycle

The insn per cycle for cpu_core should be 4,268,965 / 9,733,603 = 0.44.

When finding the metric events, the find_stat() doesn't take the PMU
type into account. The cpu_atom/cycles/ is wrongly used to calculate
the IPC of the cpu_core.

In the hard-coded metrics, the events from a different PMU are only
SW_CPU_CLOCK and SW_TASK_CLOCK. They both have the stat type,
STAT_NSECS. Except the SW CLOCK events, check the PMU type as well.

<title>tools/memory-model: Fix bug in lock.cat</title>

commit 4c830eef806679dc243e191f962c488dd9d00708 upstream.

Andrea reported that the following innocuous litmus test:

C T

{}

P0(spinlock_t *x)
{
	int r0;

	spin_lock(x);
	spin_unlock(x);
	r0 = spin_is_locked(x);
}

gives rise to a nonsensical empty result with no executions:

$ herd7 -conf linux-kernel.cfg T.litmus
Test T Required
States 0
Ok
Witnesses
Positive: 0 Negative: 0
Condition forall (true)
Observation T Never 0 0
Time T 0.00
Hash=6fa204e139ddddf2cb6fa963bad117c0

The problem is caused by a bug in the lock.cat part of the LKMM.  Its
computation of the rf relation for RU (read-unlocked) events is
faulty; it implicitly assumes that every RU event must read from
either a UL (unlock) event in another thread or from the lock's
initial state.  Neither is true in the litmus test above, so the
computation yields no possible executions.

The lock.cat code tries to make up for this deficiency by allowing RU
events outside of critical sections to read from the last po-previous
UL event.  But it does this incorrectly, trying to keep these rfi links
separate from the rfe links that might also be needed, and passing only
the latter to herd7's cross() macro.

The problem is fixed by merging the two sets of possible rf links for
RU events and using them all in the call to cross().
