[ Upstream commit b42699547fc9fb1057795bccc21a6445743a7fde ]

During porting libbpf to bcc, I got some warnings like below:
  ...
  [  2%] Building C object src/cc/CMakeFiles/bpf-shared.dir/libbpf/src/libbpf.c.o
  /home/yhs/work/bcc2/src/cc/libbpf/src/libbpf.c:12:0:

  warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast [enabled by default]
     ret = strerror_r(err, buf, size);
  ...

bcc is built with _GNU_SOURCE defined and this caused the above warning.
This patch intends to make libpf _GNU_SOURCE friendly by
  . define _GNU_SOURCE in libbpf.c unless it is not defined
  . undefine _GNU_SOURCE as non-gnu version of strerror_r is expected.

<title>tools lib traceevent: Do not free tep-&gt;cmdlines in add_new_comm() on failure</title>

[ Upstream commit e0d2615856b2046c2e8d5bfd6933f37f69703b0b ]

If the re-allocation of tep-&gt;cmdlines succeeds, then the previous
allocation of tep-&gt;cmdlines will be freed. If we later fail in
add_new_comm(), we must not free cmdlines, and also should assign
tep-&gt;cmdlines to the new allocation. Otherwise when freeing tep, the
tep-&gt;cmdlines will be pointing to garbage.

<title>tools lib traceevent: Fix "robust" test of do_generate_dynamic_list_file</title>

commit 82a2f88458d70704be843961e10b5cef9a6e95d3 upstream.

The tools/lib/traceevent/Makefile had a test added to it to detect a failure
of the "nm" when making the dynamic list file (whatever that is). The
problem is that the test sorts the values "U W w" and some versions of sort
will place "w" ahead of "W" (even though it has a higher ASCII value, and
break the test.

Add 'tr "w" "W"' to merge the two and not worry about the ordering.

[ Upstream commit 33bae185f74d49a0d7b1bfaafb8e959efce0f243 ]

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential NULL
pointer dereference check:

  tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.c:3493
  bpf_prog_load_xattr() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'attr'
  (see line 3483)

  3479 int bpf_prog_load_xattr(const struct bpf_prog_load_attr *attr,
  3480                         struct bpf_object **pobj, int *prog_fd)
  3481 {
  3482         struct bpf_object_open_attr open_attr = {
  3483                 .file           = attr-&gt;file,
  3484                 .prog_type      = attr-&gt;prog_type,
                                         ^^^^^^
  3485         };

At the head of function, it directly access 'attr' without checking
if it's NULL pointer. This patch moves the values assignment after
validating 'attr' and 'attr-&gt;file'.

[ Upstream commit 32e621e55496a0009f44fe4914cd4a23cade4984 ]

Currently, building bpf samples will cause the following error.

    ./tools/lib/bpf/bpf.h:132:27: error: 'UINT32_MAX' undeclared here (not in a function) ..
     #define BPF_LOG_BUF_SIZE (UINT32_MAX &gt;&gt; 8) /* verifier maximum in kernels &lt;= 5.1 */
                               ^
    ./samples/bpf/bpf_load.h:31:25: note: in expansion of macro 'BPF_LOG_BUF_SIZE'
     extern char bpf_log_buf[BPF_LOG_BUF_SIZE];
                             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Due to commit 4519efa6f8ea ("libbpf: fix BPF_LOG_BUF_SIZE off-by-one error")
hard-coded size of BPF_LOG_BUF_SIZE has been replaced with UINT32_MAX which is
defined in &lt;stdint.h&gt; header.

Even with this change, bpf selftests are running fine since these are built
with clang and it includes header(-idirafter) from clang/6.0.0/include.
(it has &lt;stdint.h&gt;)

    clang -I. -I./include/uapi -I../../../include/uapi -idirafter /usr/local/include -idirafter /usr/include \
    -idirafter /usr/lib/llvm-6.0/lib/clang/6.0.0/include -idirafter /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu \
    -Wno-compare-distinct-pointer-types -O2 -target bpf -emit-llvm -c progs/test_sysctl_prog.c -o - | \
    llc -march=bpf -mcpu=generic  -filetype=obj -o /linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_sysctl_prog.o

But bpf samples are compiled with GCC, and it only searches and includes
headers declared at the target file. As '#include &lt;stdint.h&gt;' hasn't been
declared in tools/lib/bpf/bpf.h, it causes build failure of bpf samples.

    gcc -Wp,-MD,./samples/bpf/.sockex3_user.o.d -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes \
    -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -std=gnu89 -I./usr/include -I./tools/lib/ -I./tools/testing/selftests/bpf/ \
    -I./tools/  lib/ -I./tools/include -I./tools/perf -c -o ./samples/bpf/sockex3_user.o ./samples/bpf/sockex3_user.c;

This commit add declaration of '#include &lt;stdint.h&gt;' to tools/lib/bpf/bpf.h
to fix this problem.

[ Upstream commit ca31ca8247e2d3807ff5fa1d1760616a2292001c ]

When build perf for ARC recently, there was a build failure due to lack
of __NR_bpf.

| ...                           bpf: [ on  ]

<title>tools lib traceevent: Fix missing equality check for strcmp</title>

[ Upstream commit f32c2877bcb068a718bb70094cd59ccc29d4d082 ]

There was a missing comparison with 0 when checking if type is "s64" or
"u64". Therefore, the body of the if-statement was entered if "type" was
"u64" or not "s64", which made the first strcmp() redundant since if
type is "u64", it's not "s64".

If type is "s64", the body of the if-statement is not entered but since
the remainder of the function consists of if-statements which will not
be entered if type is "s64", we will just return "val", which is
correct, albeit at the cost of a few more calls to strcmp(), i.e., it
will behave just as if the if-statement was entered.

If type is neither "s64" or "u64", the body of the if-statement will be
entered incorrectly and "val" returned. This means that any type that is
checked after "s64" and "u64" is handled the same way as "s64" and
"u64", i.e., the limiting of "val" to fit in for example "s8" is never
reached.

This was introduced in the kernel tree when the sources were copied from
trace-cmd in commit f7d82350e597 ("tools/events: Add files to create
libtraceevent.a"), and in the trace-cmd repo in 1cdbae6035cei
("Implement typecasting in parser") when the function was introduced,
i.e., it has always behaved the wrong way.
