[ Upstream commit 9f19aab47ced012eddef1e2bc96007efc7713b61 ]

The LLVM template is first echo-ed into command_out and then
command_out executed. The echo surrounds the template with double
quotes, however, the template itself may contain quotes. This is
generally innocuous but in tools/perf/tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
we see:
...
SEC("func=null_lseek file-&gt;f_mode offset orig")
...
where the first double quote ends the double quote of the echo, then
the &gt; redirects output into a file called f_mode.

To avoid this inadvertent behavior substitute redirects and similar
characters to be ASCII control codes, then substitute the output in
the echo back again.

[ Upstream commit c435c166dcf526ac827bc964d82cc0d5e7a1fd0b ]

Zhihao sent a patch but it made llvm__compile_bpf() return what
asprintf() returns on error, which is just -1, but since this function
returns -errno, fix it by returning -ENOMEM for this case instead.

The 'test_dir' variable is assigned to the 'release' array which is
out-of-scope 3 lines later.

Extend the scope of the 'release' array so that an out-of-scope array
isn't accessed.

Bug detected by clang's address sanitizer.

In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:

   free(a);
   a = NULL;

And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.

I need to check the need for $KERNEL_INC_OPTIONS when building eBPF
restricted C programs, for now just give precedence to
$PERF_BPF_INC_OPTIONS so that we can get a linux/socket.h usable

<title>perf llvm: Allow passing options to llc in addition to clang</title>

<id>cb76371441d0984824a6e66f8f3d369f037edb34</id>
<content type='text'>
The newly added 'llvm.opts' variable allows passing options directly to
llc, like needed to get sane DWARF in BPF ELF debug sections:

With:

  [root@seventh perf]# cat ~/.perfconfig
  [llvm]
	  dump-obj = true
	clang-opt = -g
  [root@seventh perf]#

We get:

  [root@seventh perf]# perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c cat /etc/passwd &gt; /dev/null
  LLVM: dumping tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.o
       0.000 __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world

The newly added 'llvm.opts' variable allows passing options directly to
llc, like needed to get sane DWARF in BPF ELF debug sections:

With:

  [root@seventh perf]# cat ~/.perfconfig
  [llvm]
	  dump-obj = true
	clang-opt = -g
  [root@seventh perf]#

We get:

  [root@seventh perf]# perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c cat /etc/passwd &gt; /dev/null
  LLVM: dumping tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.o
       0.000 __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world

<title>perf llvm-utils: Remove bashism from kernel include fetch script</title>

Like system(), popen() calls /bin/sh, which may/may not be bash.

Script when run on dash and encounters the line, yields:

 exit: Illegal number: -1

checkbashisms report on script content:

 possible bashism (exit|return with negative status code):
 exit -1

Remove the bashism and use the more portable non-zero failure
status code 1.
