commit 1da1d60774014137d776d0400fdf2f1779d8d4d5 upstream.

If cpu_core PMU event fails to parse, try also cpu_atom PMU event when
parsing cycles event.

[ Upstream commit deb44a6249f696106645c63c0603eab08a6122af ]

The test does not always correctly determine the number of events for
hybrids, nor allow for more than 1 evsel when parsing.

Fix by iterating the events actually created and getting the correct
evsel for the events processed.

Commit 463538a383a2 ("perf tests: Fix test 68 zstd compression for
s390") inadvertently removed the -g flag from all platforms rather than
just s390, because the [[ ]] construct fails in sh. Changing to single
brackets restores testing of call graphs and removes the following error
from the output:

  $ ./perf test -v 85

<title>perf tests attr: Add missing topdown metrics events</title>

The Topdown metrics events were added as 'perf stat' default events
since commit 42641d6f4d15e6db ("perf stat: Add Topdown metrics events as
default events").

However, the perf attr tests were not updated
accordingly.

The perf attr test fails on the platform which supports Topdown metrics.

  # perf test 17

    17: Setup struct perf_event_attr        :FAILED!

Add Topdown metrics events into perf attr test cases. Make them optional
since they are only available on newer platforms.

<title>perf tests: Fix flaky test 'Object code reading'</title>

This test occasionally fails on aarch64 when a sample is taken in
free@plt and it fails with "Bytes read differ from those read by
objdump".

This is because that symbol is near a section boundary in the elf file.
Despite the -z option to always output zeros, objdump uses
bfd_map_over_sections() to iterate through the elf file so it doesn't
see outside of the sections where these zeros are and can't print them.

For example this boundary proceeds free@plt in libc with a gap of 48
bytes between .plt and .text:

  objdump -d -z --start-address=0x23cc8 --stop-address=0x23d08 libc-2.30.so

  libc-2.30.so:     file format elf64-littleaarch64

  Disassembly of section .plt:

  0000000000023cc8 &lt;*ABS*+0x7fd00@plt+0x8&gt;:
     23cc8:	91018210 	add	x16, x16, #0x60
     23ccc:	d61f0220 	br	x17

  Disassembly of section .text:

  0000000000023d00 &lt;abort@@GLIBC_2.17-0x98&gt;:
     23d00:	a9bf7bfd 	stp	x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
     23d04:	910003fd 	mov	x29, sp

Taking a sample in free@plt is very rare because it is so small, but the
test can be forced to fail almost every time on any platform by linking
the test with a shared library that has a single empty function and
calling it in a loop.

The fix is to zero the buffers so that when there is a jump in the
addresses output by objdump, zeros are already filled in between.

To ensure the stack frames are on the stack tail calls optimizations
need to be inhibited. If your compiler supports an attribute use it,
otherwise use an asm volatile barrier.

The barrier fix was suggested here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201028081123.GT2628@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net/
Tested with an optimized clang build and by forcing the asm barrier
route with an optimized clang build.

A GCC bug tracking a proper disable_tail_calls is:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=97831

Fixes: 9ae1e990f1ab ("perf tools: Remove broken __no_tail_call
       attribute")

v2. is a rebase. The original fix patch generated quite a lot of
    discussion over the right place for the fix:
    https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201114000803.909530-1-irogers@google.com/
    The patch reflects my preference of it being near the use, so that
    future code cleanups don't break this somewhat special usage.

needs to be changed too, otherwise we'll get:

  0x1001f2091d8: mmap mask[0]:
  BPF filter result incorrect, expected 56, got 56 samples

<title>perf tests: Add test for PMU aliases</title>

<id>c7a3828d98db2730079265b5f51933dfcef8bb5f</id>
<content type='text'>
A perf uncore PMU may have two PMU names, a real name and an alias.

Add one test case to verify that the real and alias names have the same
effect.

Iterate sysfs to get one event which has an alias and create an evlist
by adding two evsels. Evsel1 is created by event and evsel2 is created
by alias.

Test asserts:

  evsel1-&gt;core.attr.type == evsel2-&gt;core.attr.type
  evsel1-&gt;core.attr.config == evsel2-&gt;core.attr.config
