commit 77f18153c080855e1c3fb520ca31a4e61530121d upstream.

[Add an additional sprintf replacement in tools/perf/builtin-script.c]

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.

This reverts commit 5f18429ae48faebefc00533cb24afdd01064754c.

Which was upstream commit 53fe307dfd309e425b171f6272d64296a54f4dff.

Ben Hutchings reports that this commit depends on new code added in
v4.18, and so is irrelevant on older kernels, and breaks the build.

[ Upstream commit 4e4cf62b37da5ff45c904a3acf242ab29ed5881d ]

Running the 'perf test' command after building perf with a memory
sanitizer causes a warning that says:

  WARNING: MemorySanitizer: use-of-uninitialized-value... in mmap-thread-lookup.c

Initializing the go variable to 0 silences this harmless warning.

Committer warning:

This was harmless, just a simple test writing whatever was at that
sizeof(int) memory area just to signal another thread blocked reading
that file created with pipe(). Initialize it tho so that we don't get
this warning.

Command

   # perf test -Fv 6

fails with error

   running test 100 'kvm-s390:kvm_s390_create_vm' failed to parse
    event 'kvm-s390:kvm_s390_create_vm', err -1, str 'unknown tracepoint'
    event syntax error: 'kvm-s390:kvm_s390_create_vm'
                         \___ unknown tracepoint

when the kvm module is not loaded or not built in.

Fix this by adding a valid function which tests if the module
is loaded. Loaded modules (or builtin KVM support) have a
directory named
  /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kvm-s390
for this tracepoint.

Check for existence of this directory.

[ Upstream commit 03d309711d687460d1345de8a0363f45b1c8cd11 ]

Commit 489338a717a0 ("perf tests evsel-tp-sched: Fix bitwise operator")
causes test case 14 "Parse sched tracepoints fields" to fail on s390.

This test succeeds on x86.

In fact this test now fails on all architectures with type char treated
as type unsigned char.

The root cause is the signed-ness of character arrays in the tracepoints
sched_switch for structure members prev_comm and next_comm.

On s390 the output of:

 [root@m35lp76 perf]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format
 name: sched_switch
 ID: 287
 format:
   field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:8; size:16;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char next_comm[16]; offset:40; size:16; signed:0;

reveals the character arrays prev_comm and next_comm are per
default unsigned char and have values in the range of 0..255.

On x86 both fields are signed as this output shows:
 [root@f29]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format
 name: sched_switch
 ID: 287
 format:
   field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2;	signed:0;
   ...
   field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:8; size:16;	signed:1;
   ...
   field:char next_comm[16]; offset:40; size:16; signed:1;

and the character arrays prev_comm and next_comm are per default signed
char and have values in the range of -1..127.  The implementation of
type char is architecture specific.

Since the character arrays in both tracepoints sched_switch and
sched_wakeup should contain ascii characters, simply omit the check for
signedness in the test case.

Output before:

  [root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -F 14
  14: Parse sched tracepoints fields                        :

commit 489338a717a0dfbbd5a3fabccf172b78f0ac9015 upstream.

Notice that the use of the bitwise OR operator '|' always leads to true
in this particular case, which seems a bit suspicious due to the context
in which this expression is being used.

Fix this by using bitwise AND operator '&amp;' instead.

This bug was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

[ 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
  39: Session topology                                      :

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

<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
