[ Upstream commit 0cd032d3b5fcebf5454315400ab310746a81ca53 ]

brstackinsn must be allowed to be set by the user when AUX area data has
been captured because, in that case, the branch stack might be
synthesized on the fly. This fixes the following error:

Before:

  $ perf record -e '{intel_pt//,cpu/mem_inst_retired.all_loads,aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' grep -rqs jhgjhg /boot
  [ perf record: Woken up 19 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.274 MB perf.data ]
  $ perf script -F +brstackinsn --xed --itrace=i1usl100 | head
  Display of branch stack assembler requested, but non all-branch filter set
  Hint: run 'perf record -b ...'

After:

[ Upstream commit 5172672da02e483d9b3c4d814c3482d0c8ffb1a6 ]

The 'len' returned by grab_bb() includes an extra MAXINSN bytes to allow
for the last instruction, so the the final 'offs' will not be 'len'.
Fix the error condition logic accordingly.

[ Upstream commit e98df280bc2a499fd41d7f9e2d6733884de69902 ]

When the LBR data and the instructions in a binary do not match the loop
printing instructions could get confused and print a long stream of
bogus &lt;bad&gt; instructions.

The problem was that if the instruction decoder cannot decode an
instruction it ilen wasn't initialized, so the loop going through the
basic block would continue with the previous value.

Harden the code to avoid such problems:

- Make sure ilen is always freshly initialized and is 0 for bad
  instructions.

- Do not overrun the code buffer while printing instructions

- Print a warning message if the final jump is not on an instruction
  boundary.

stat-cpi script was dumping core.

The issue is that since 1fcd03946b52 perf_stat__update_shadow_stats now calls
update_runtime_stat passing rt_stat rather than calling update_stats but
perf_stat__init_shadow_stats has never been called to initialize rt_stat in
the script path processing recorded stat data.

Since I can't see any reason why perf_stat__init_shadow_stats() is presently
initialized like it is in builtin-script.c::perf_sample__fprint_metric()
[4bd1bef8bba2f] I'm proposing it instead be initialized once in __cmd_script

[ Upstream commit 96167167b6e17b25c0e05ecc31119b73baeab094 ]

'perf script' crashes currently when printing mixed trace points and
other events because the trace format does not handle events without
trace meta data. Add a simple check to avoid that.

  % cat &gt; test.c
  main()
  {
      printf("Hello world\n");
  }
  ^D
  % gcc -g -o test test.c
  % sudo perf probe -x test 'test.c:3'
  % perf record -e '{cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/,probe_test:main}:S' ./test
  % perf script
  &lt;segfault&gt;

Committer testing:

Before:

  # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.28.so malloc
  Added new event:
    probe_libc:malloc    (on malloc in /usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l
  probe_libc:malloc    (on __libc_malloc@malloc/malloc.c in /usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so)
  # perf record -e '{cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/,probe_libc:*}:S' sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.023 MB perf.data (40 samples) ]
  # perf script
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  ^C
  #

After:

  # perf script | head -6
     sleep 2888 94796.944981: 16198 cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/: ffffffff925dc04f get_random_u32+0x1f (/lib/modules/5.0.0-rc2+/build/vmlinux)

<title>perf script: Use fallbacks for branch stacks</title>

commit 692d0e63324d2954a0c63a812a8588e97023a295 upstream.

Branch stacks do not necessarily have the same cpumode as the 'ip'. Use
the fallback functions in those cases.

This patch depends on patch "perf tools: Add fallback functions for cases
where cpumode is insufficient".

In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, variables, data
structures and functions require a unique prefix to prevent name space
conflicts. That prefix will be "tep_" and not "pevent_". This changes
APIs: pevent_set_file_bigendian, pevent_set_flag,
pevent_set_function_resolver, pevent_set_host_bigendian,
pevent_set_long_size, pevent_set_page_size and pevent_get_long_size

perf_event__process_feature() accesses feat_ops[HEADER_LAST_FEATURE]

script/annotate. Ignore HEADER_LAST_FEATURE for perf script/annotate,
just like it is done in 'perf report'.

'perf script' in piped mode is crashing because evsel-&gt;priv is not set
properly. Fix it.

Before:

  # perf record -o - -- ls | perf script
  &lt;SNIP 'ls' output&gt;
    Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  #

After:

  # perf record -o - -- ls | perf script
  &lt;SNIP 'ls' output&gt;
  ls 2282 1031.731974:  250000 cpu-clock:uhH:  7effe4b3d29e
  ls 2282 1031.732222:  250000 cpu-clock:uhH:  7effe4b3a650
