commit 10a04ff09bcc39e0044190ffe9f00f998f13647c upstream.

Currently, tools have *ALIGN*() macros scattered across the unrelated
headers, as there are only 3 of them and they were added separately
each time on an as-needed basis.
Anyway, let's make it more consistent with the kernel headers and allow
using those macros outside of the mentioned headers. Create
&lt;linux/align.h&gt; inside the tools/ folder and include it where needed.

<title>bitmap: introduce generic optimized bitmap_size()</title>

commit a37fbe666c016fd89e4460d0ebfcea05baba46dc upstream.

The number of times yet another open coded
`BITS_TO_LONGS(nbits) * sizeof(long)` can be spotted is huge.
Some generic helper is long overdue.

Add one, bitmap_size(), but with one detail.
BITS_TO_LONGS() uses DIV_ROUND_UP(). The latter works well when both
divident and divisor are compile-time constants or when the divisor
is not a pow-of-2. When it is however, the compilers sometimes tend
to generate suboptimal code (GCC 13):

48 83 c0 3f          	add    $0x3f,%rax
48 c1 e8 06          	shr    $0x6,%rax
48 8d 14 c5 00 00 00 00	lea    0x0(,%rax,8),%rdx

%BITS_PER_LONG is always a pow-2 (either 32 or 64), but GCC still does
full division of `nbits + 63` by it and then multiplication by 8.
Instead of BITS_TO_LONGS(), use ALIGN() and then divide by 8. GCC:

8d 50 3f             	lea    0x3f(%rax),%edx
c1 ea 03             	shr    $0x3,%edx
81 e2 f8 ff ff 1f    	and    $0x1ffffff8,%edx

Now it shifts `nbits + 63` by 3 positions (IOW performs fast division
by 8) and then masks bits[2:0]. bloat-o-meter:

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 20/133 up/down: 156/-773 (-617)

Clang does it better and generates the same code before/after starting
from -O1, except that with the ALIGN() approach it uses %edx and thus
still saves some bytes:

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 9/133 up/down: 18/-538 (-520)

Note that we can't expand DIV_ROUND_UP() by adding a check and using
this approach there, as it's used in array declarations where
expressions are not allowed.
Add this helper to tools/ as well.

<title>tools lib: Fix builds when glibc contains strlcpy()</title>

commit 6c4798d3f08b81c2c52936b10e0fa872590c96ae upstream.

Disable a couple of compilation warnings (which are treated as errors)
on strlcpy() definition and declaration, allowing users to compile perf
and kernel (objtool) when:

1. glibc have strlcpy() (such as in ALT Linux since 2004) objtool and
   perf build fails with this (in gcc):

  In file included from exec-cmd.c:3:
  tools/include/linux/string.h:20:15: error: redundant redeclaration of ‘strlcpy’ [-Werror=redundant-decls]
     20 | extern size_t strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size);

2. clang ignores `-Wredundant-decls', but produces another warning when
   building perf:

    CC       util/string.o
  ../lib/string.c:99:8: error: attribute declaration must precede definition [-Werror,-Wignored-attributes]
  size_t __weak strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size)
  ../../tools/include/linux/compiler.h:66:34: note: expanded from macro '__weak'
  # define __weak                 __attribute__((weak))
  /usr/include/bits/string_fortified.h:151:8: note: previous definition is here
  __NTH (strlcpy (char *__restrict __dest, const char *__restrict __src,

Committer notes:

The

 #pragma GCC diagnostic

directive was introduced in gcc 4.6, so check for that as well.

Fixes: ce99091 ("perf tools: Move strlcpy() from perf to tools/lib/string.c")
Fixes: 0215d59 ("tools lib: Reinstate strlcpy() header guard with __UCLIBC__")

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.

reallocarray() is a safer variant of realloc which checks for
multiplication overflow in case of array allocation.  Since it's
not available in Glibc &lt; 2.26 import kernel's overflow.h and
add a static inline implementation when needed.  Use feature
detection to probe for existence of reallocarray.

reallocarray() is a safer variant of realloc which checks for
multiplication overflow in case of array allocation.  Since it's
not available in Glibc &lt; 2.26 import kernel's overflow.h and
add a static inline implementation when needed.  Use feature
detection to probe for existence of reallocarray.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) Add Maglev hashing scheduler to IPVS, from Inju Song.

 2) Lots of new TC subsystem tests from Roman Mashak.

 3) Add TCP zero copy receive and fix delayed acks and autotuning with
    SO_RCVLOWAT, from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Add XDP_REDIRECT support to mlx5 driver, from Jesper Dangaard
    Brouer.

 5) Add ttl inherit support to vxlan, from Hangbin Liu.

 6) Properly separate ipv6 routes into their logically independant
    components. fib6_info for the routing table, and fib6_nh for sets of
    nexthops, which thus can be shared. From David Ahern.

 7) Add bpf_xdp_adjust_tail helper, which can be used to generate ICMP
    messages from XDP programs. From Nikita V. Shirokov.

 8) Lots of long overdue cleanups to the r8169 driver, from Heiner
    Kallweit.

 9) Add BTF ("BPF Type Format"), from Martin KaFai Lau.

10) Add traffic condition monitoring to iwlwifi, from Luca Coelho.

11) Plumb extack down into fib_rules, from Roopa Prabhu.

12) Add Flower classifier offload support to igb, from Vinicius Costa
    Gomes.

13) Add UDP GSO support, from Willem de Bruijn.

14) Add documentation for eBPF helpers, from Quentin Monnet.

15) Add TLS tx offload to mlx5, from Ilya Lesokhin.

16) Allow applications to be given the number of bytes available to read
    on a socket via a control message returned from recvmsg(), from
    Soheil Hassas Yeganeh.

17) Add x86_32 eBPF JIT compiler, from Wang YanQing.

18) Add AF_XDP sockets, with zerocopy support infrastructure as well.
    From Björn Töpel.

19) Remove indirect load support from all of the BPF JITs and handle
    these operations in the verifier by translating them into native BPF
    instead. From Daniel Borkmann.

20) Add GRO support to ipv6 gre tunnels, from Eran Ben Elisha.

21) Allow XDP programs to do lookups in the main kernel routing tables
    for forwarding. From David Ahern.

22) Allow drivers to store hardware state into an ELF section of kernel
    dump vmcore files, and use it in cxgb4. From Rahul Lakkireddy.

23) Various RACK and loss detection improvements in TCP, from Yuchung
    Cheng.

24) Add TCP SACK compression, from Eric Dumazet.

25) Add User Mode Helper support and basic bpfilter infrastructure, from
    Alexei Starovoitov.

26) Support ports and protocol values in RTM_GETROUTE, from Roopa
    Prabhu.

27) Support bulking in -&gt;ndo_xdp_xmit() API, from Jesper Dangaard
    Brouer.

28) Add lots of forwarding selftests, from Petr Machata.

29) Add generic network device failover driver, from Sridhar Samudrala.

Add several test cases where the same or different map pointers
originate from different paths in the program and execute a map
