[ Upstream commit 6bff76af9635411214ca44ea38fc2781e78064b6 ]

With the patch 0b6c5371c03c "Add missing topdown metrics events" eight
topdown metric events with numbers ranging from 0x8000 to 0x8700 were
added to the test since they were added as 'perf stat' default events.
Later the patch 951efb9976ce "Update no event/metric expectations" kept
only 4 of those events(0x8000-0x8300).

Currently, the topdown events with numbers 0x8400 to 0x8700 are missing
from the list of expected events resulting in a failure. Add back the
missing topdown events.

[ Upstream commit ff16aeb9b83441b8458d4235496cf320189a0c60 ]

The 2 second sleep can cause the test to fail on very slow network file
systems because Perf ends up being killed before it finishes starting
up.

Fix it by making the leafloop workload end after a fixed time like the
other workloads so there is no need to kill it after 2 seconds.

Also remove the 1 second start sampling delay because it is similarly
fragile. Instead, search through all samples for a matching one, rather
than just checking the first sample and hoping it's in the right place.

commit 8a55c1e2c9e123b399b272a7db23f09dbb74af21 upstream.

It finds all occurrences of a single character and replaces them with
a multi character string. This will be used in a test in a following
commit.

<title>perf pmu: Move pmu__find_core_pmu() to pmus.c</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 3d0f5f456a5786573ba6a3358178c8db580e4b85 ]

pmu__find_core_pmu() more logically belongs in pmus.c because it
iterates over all PMUs, so move it to pmus.c

At the same time rename it to perf_pmus__find_core_pmu() to match the
naming convention in this file.

list_prepare_entry() can't be used in perf_pmus__scan_core() anymore now
that it's called from the same compilation unit. This is with -O2
(specifically -O1 -ftree-vrp -finline-functions
-finline-small-functions) which allow the bounds of the array
access to be determined at compile time. list_prepare_entry() subtracts
the offset of the 'list' member in struct perf_pmu from &amp;core_pmus,
which isn't a struct perf_pmu. The compiler sees that pmu results in
&amp;core_pmus - 8 and refuses to compile. At runtime this works because
list_for_each_entry_continue() always adds the offset back again before
dereferencing -&gt;next, but it's technically undefined behavior. With
-fsanitize=undefined an additional warning is generated.

Using list_first_entry_or_null() to get the first entry here avoids
doing &amp;core_pmus - 8 but has the same result and fixes both the compile
warning and the undefined behavior warning. There are other uses of
list_prepare_entry() in pmus.c, but the compiler doesn't seem to be
able to see that they can also be called with &amp;core_pmus, so I won't
change any at this time.

[ Upstream commit a1ebf7718ee31501d2d2ee3af1716e0084c81926 ]

Test that the new expression builtin returns a match when the current
escaped CPU ID is given, and that it doesn't match when "0x0" is given.

The CPU ID in test__expr() has to be changed to perf_pmu__getcpuid()
which returns the CPU ID string, rather than the raw CPU ID that
get_cpuid() returns because that can't be used with strcmp_cpuid_str().
It doesn't affect the is_intel test because both versions contain
"Intel".

[ Upstream commit 10b6ee3b597b1b1b4dc390aaf9d589664af31df9 ]

These tests record in a mode that includes kernel trace but look for
samples of a userspace process. This makes them sensitive to any kernel
compilation options that increase the amount of time spent in the
kernel. If the trace buffer is completely filled before userspace is
reached then the test will fail. Double the buffer size to fix this.

The other tests in the same file aren't sensitive to this for various
reasons, for example the iterate devices test filters by userspace trace
only. But in order to keep coverage of all the modes, increase the
buffer size rather than filtering by userspace for the basic tests.

[ Upstream commit 10b6ee3b597b1b1b4dc390aaf9d589664af31df9 ]

These tests record in a mode that includes kernel trace but look for
samples of a userspace process. This makes them sensitive to any kernel
compilation options that increase the amount of time spent in the
kernel. If the trace buffer is completely filled before userspace is
reached then the test will fail. Double the buffer size to fix this.

The other tests in the same file aren't sensitive to this for various
reasons, for example the iterate devices test filters by userspace trace
only. But in order to keep coverage of all the modes, increase the
buffer size rather than filtering by userspace for the basic tests.

[ Upstream commit 1285ab300d598ead593b190af65a16f4b0843c68 ]

User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, so when tracing selected CPUs,
sideband for all CPUs is needed. In this case set the cpu map of the evsel
to all online CPUs. This may modify the original cpu map of the evlist.

Therefore, need to check whether the preceding scenario exists before
record__init_thread_masks().

Dummy tracking has been set in record__open(), move it before
record__init_thread_masks() and add a helper for unified processing.

The sys_perf_event_open invoked is as follows:

  # perf --debug verbose=3 record -e cpu-clock -D 100 true
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  Opening: cpu-clock

'perf test' needs to update base-record &amp; system-wide-dummy attr expected values
for test-record-C0:

1. Because a dummy sideband event is added to the sampling of specified
   CPUs. When evlist contains evsel of different sample_type,
   evlist__config() will change the default PERF_SAMPLE_ID bit to
   PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFICATION bit.
   The attr sample_type expected value of base-record and system-wide-dummy
   in test-record-C0 needs to be updated.

2. The perf record uses evlist__add_aux_dummy() instead of
   evlist__add_dummy() to add a dummy event.
   The expected value of system-wide-dummy attr needs to be updated.

The 'perf test' result is as follows:

  # ./perf test list  2&gt;&amp;1 | grep 'Setup struct perf_event_attr'
   17: Setup struct perf_event_attr
  # ./perf test 17
   17: Setup struct perf_event_attr                                    : Ok

[ Upstream commit 2dade41a533f337447b945239b87ff31a8857890 ]

PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_HW_TYPE results in multiple events being opened on
heterogeneous systems. Currently this test only sets its required
attributes on the first event. Not disabling enable_on_exec on the other
events causes the test to fail because the forked objdump processes are
sampled. No tracking event is opened so Perf only knows about its own
mappings causing the objdump samples to give the following error:

  $ perf test -vvv "object code reading"

  Reading object code for memory address: 0xffff9aaa55ec
  thread__find_map failed
  ---- end(-1) ----
  24: Object code reading              : FAILED!

[ Upstream commit 256ef072b3842273ce703db18b603b051aca95fe ]

To prevent anyone from seeing a test failure appear as a regression and
thinking that it was caused by their code change, insert some noise into
the loop which makes it immune to sampling bias issues (errata 1694299).

The "test data symbol" test can fail with any unrelated change that
shifts the loop into an unfortunate position in the Perf binary which is
almost impossible to debug as the root cause of the test failure.
Ultimately it's caused by the referenced errata.

<title>perf test record user-regs: Fix mask for vg register</title>

[ Upstream commit 28b01743ca752cea5ab182297d8b912b22f2a2d1 ]

The 'vg' register for arm64 shows up in --user_regs as available when
masking the variable AT_HWCAP with 1 &lt;&lt; 22 returns '1' as done in
perf_regs.c.

However, in subtests for support of SVE, the check for the 'vg' register
is done by masking the variable AT_HWCAP with the value 0x200000 which
is equals to 1 &lt;&lt; 21 instead of 1 &lt;&lt; 22.

This results in inconsistencies on certain systems where the test
expects that the 'vg' register is not operational when it is, and
vice-versa.

During the testing on a machine that the test expected not to have the
'vg' register available, 'perf record' with the option --user-regs
showed records for the 'vg' register together with all of the others,
which means that the mask for the subtest of perf_event_attr is off by
one.

Change the value of the mask from 0x200000 to 0x400000 to correct it.
