commit 77f18153c080855e1c3fb520ca31a4e61530121d upstream.

With gcc 8 we get new set of snprintf() warnings that breaks the
compilation, one example:

  tests/mem.c: In function ‘check’:
  tests/mem.c:19:48: error: ‘%s’ directive output may be truncated writing \
        up to 99 bytes into a region of size 89 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
    snprintf(failure, sizeof failure, "unexpected %s", out);

The gcc docs says:

 To avoid the warning either use a bigger buffer or handle the
 function's return value which indicates whether or not its output
 has been truncated.

Given that all these warnings are harmless, because the code either
properly fails due to uncomplete file path or we don't care for
truncated output at all, I'm changing all those snprintf() calls to
scnprintf(), which actually 'checks' for the snprint return value so the
gcc stays silent.

[ Upstream commit 9ef0112442bdddef5fb55adf20b3a5464b33de75 ]

Perf test 40 for example has several subtests numbered 1-4 when
displaying the start of the subtest. When the subtest results
are displayed the subtests are numbered 0-3.

Use this command to generate trace output:

  [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -Fv 40 2&gt;/tmp/bpf1

Fix this by adjusting the subtest number when show the
subtest result.

Output before:

  [root@s35lp76 perf]# egrep '(^40\.[0-4]| subtest [0-4]:)' /tmp/bpf1
  40.1: Basic BPF filtering                                 :

[ Upstream commit b930e62ecd362843002bdf84c2940439822af321 ]

On s390 this test case fails because the socket identifiction numbers
assigned to the CPU are higher than the CPU identification numbers.

F/ix this by adding the platform architecture into the perf data header
flag information. This helps identifiing the test platform and handles
s390 specifics in process_cpu_topology().

Before:

  [root@p23lp27 perf]# perf test -vvvvv -F 39

[ Upstream commit d121109100bda84bbbb199dab97f9d56432ab235 ]

The "perf test Session topology" entry fails with core dump on s390. The root
cause is a NULL pointer dereference in function check_cpu_topology() line 76
(or line 82 without -v).

The session-&gt;header.env.cpu variable is NULL because on s390 function
process_cpu_topology() returns with error:

    socket_id number is too big.
    You may need to upgrade the perf tool.

and releases the env.cpu variable via zfree() and sets it to NULL.

Here is the gdb output:
(gdb) n
76                      pr_debug("CPU %d, core %d, socket %d\n", i,
(gdb) n

76  pr_debug("CPU %d, core %d, socket %d\n", i,

Make sure the env.cpu variable is not used when its NULL.
Test for NULL pointer and return TEST_SKIP if so.

<title>perf tests: Fix dwarf unwind for stripped binaries</title>

[ Upstream commit fdf7c49c200d1b9909e2204cec5bd68b48605c71 ]

When we strip the perf binary, dwarf unwind test stop
to work. The reason is that strip will remove static
function symbols, which we need to check for unwind.

This change will keep this test working in cases where
the global symbols are put into dynamic symbol table,
which is the case on x86. It still won't work on powerpc.

Making those 5 local functions global, and adding
'test_dwarf_unwind__' to their names.

Committer testing:

[ Upstream commit fdf7c49c200d1b9909e2204cec5bd68b48605c71 ]

When we strip the perf binary, dwarf unwind test stop
to work. The reason is that strip will remove static
function symbols, which we need to check for unwind.

This change will keep this test working in cases where
the global symbols are put into dynamic symbol table,
which is the case on x86. It still won't work on powerpc.

Making those 5 local functions global, and adding
'test_dwarf_unwind__' to their names.

<title>perf tests: Use arch__compare_symbol_names to compare symbols</title>

[ Upstream commit ab6e9a99345131cd8e54268d1d0dc04a33f7ed11 ]

The symbol search called by machine__find_kernel_symbol_by_name is using
internally arch__compare_symbol_names function to compare 2 symbol
names, because different archs have different ways of comparing symbols.
Mostly for skipping '.' prefixes and similar.

In test 1 when we try to find matching symbols in kallsyms and vmlinux,
by address and by symbol name. When either is found we compare the pair
symbol names  by simple strcmp, which is not good enough for reasons
explained in previous paragraph.

On powerpc this can cause lockup, because even thought we found the
pair, the compared names are different and don't match simple strcmp.
Following code path is executed, that leads to lockup:

   - we find the pair in kallsyms by sym-&gt;start
next_pair:
   - we compare the names and it fails
   - we find the pair by sym-&gt;name
   - the pair addresses match so we call goto next_pair
     because we assume the names match in this case

<title>perf test: Fix test case inet_pton to accept inlines.</title>

[ Upstream commit 0f19a038afdc592176c9a302f0d08be6a68ad74a ]

Using Fedora 27 and latest Linux kernel the test case
trace+probe_libc_inet_pton.sh fails again on s390.  This time is the
inlining of functions which does not match.  After an update of the
glibc (from 2.26-16 to 2.26-24) the output is different

The expected output is:

             __inet_pton (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
             gaih_inet (inlined)
             ....

The actual output is:

  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.061/0.061/0.061/0.000 ms
       0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(3ffb2140448))
             __inet_pton (inlined)
             gaih_inet.constprop.7 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
             ...

Fix this by being less strict on 'inlined' verses library name and
accept both

[ Upstream commit 7a92453620d42c3a5fea94a864dc6aa04c262b93 ]

On Intel test case trace+probe_libc_inet_pton.sh succeeds and the
output is:

The kernel stack unwinder is used, it is specified implicitly
as call-graph=fp (frame pointer).

On s390x only dwarf is available for stack unwinding. It is also
done in user space. This requires different parameter setup
and result checking for s390x and Intel.

This patch adds separate perf trace setup and result checking
for Intel and s390x. On s390x specify this command line to
get a call-graph and handle the different call graph result
checking:

as call-graph=fp (frame pointer).

On s390x only dwarf is available for stack unwinding. It is also
done in user space. This requires different parameter setup
and result checking for s390x and Intel.

This patch adds separate perf trace setup and result checking
for Intel and s390x. On s390x specify this command line to
get a call-graph and handle the different call graph result
checking:

[ Upstream commit eabad8c6856f185f876b54c426c2cc69fe0f0a7d ]

When setting up DWARF callchains on specific events, without using
'record' or 'trace' --call-graph, but instead doing it like:

	perf trace -e cycles/call-graph=dwarf/

The unwind__prepare_access() call in thread__insert_map() when we
process PERF_RECORD_MMAP(2) metadata events were not being performed,
precluding us from using per-event DWARF callchains, handling them just
when we asked for all events to be DWARF, using "--call-graph dwarf".

We do it in the PERF_RECORD_MMAP because we have to look at one of the
executable maps to figure out the executable type (64-bit, 32-bit) of
the DSO laid out in that mmap. Also to look at the architecture where
the perf.data file was recorded.

All this probably should be deferred to when we process a sample for
some thread that has callchains, so that we do this processing only for
the threads with samples, not for all of them.

For now, fix using DWARF on specific events.

[ Upstream commit 996548499df61babae5306544c7daf5fd39db31c ]

Test case 21 (Number of exit events of a simple workload) fails on
s390x. The reason is the invalid sample frequency supplied for this
test. On s390x the minimum sample frequency is much higher (see output
of /proc/service_levels).

Supply a save sample frequency value for s390x to fix this.  The value
will be adjusted by the s390x CPUMF frequency convertion function to a
value well below the sysctl kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate value.
