<id>bf5411695a31f7bf07c3e9bad27b442c9224f2a9</id>
<content type='text'>
Passing build_id object to build_id__sprintf function, so it can operate
with the proper size of build id.

This will create proper md5 build id readable names,
like following:

  a50e350e97c43b4708d09bcd85ebfff7

instead of:

  a50e350e97c43b4708d09bcd85ebfff700000000

Replace build_id byte array with struct build_id object and all the code
that references it.

The objective is to carry size together with build id array, so it's
better to keep both together.

This is preparatory change for following patches, and there's no
functional change.

<title>perf inject: Do not load map/dso when injecting build-id</title>

No need to load symbols in a DSO when injecting build-id.  I guess the
reason was to check the DSO is a special file like anon files.  Use some
helper functions in map.c to check them before reading build-id.  Also
pass sample event's cpumode to a new build-id event.

It brought a speedup in the benchmark of 25 -&gt; 21 msec on my laptop.
Also the memory usage (Max RSS) went down by ~200 KB.

    Average build-id injection took: 21.389 msec (+- 0.138 msec)

<title>perf tools: Add bpf image check to __map__is_kmodule</title>

<id>830fadfd954c6782b7a8a2461c76a568c7153b9a</id>
<content type='text'>
When validating kcore modules the do_validate_kcore_modules function
checks on every kernel module dso against modules record. The
__map__is_kmodule check is used to get only kernel module dso objects
through.

Currently the bpf images are slipping through the check and making the
validation to fail, so report falls back from kcore usage to kallsyms.

Adding __map__is_bpf_image check for bpf image and adding it to
__map__is_kmodule check.

Rename enum dso_kernel_type to enum dso_space_type, which seems like
better fit.

Committer notes:

This is used with 'struct dso'-&gt;kernel, which once was a boolean, so
DSO_SPACE__USER is zero, !zero means some sort of kernel space, be it
the host kernel space or a guest kernel space.

PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL_TYPE_OOL marks an executable page. Create a map
backed only by memory, which will be populated as necessary by text poke
events.

Committer notes:

From the patch:

OOL stands for "Out of line" code such as kprobe-replaced instructions
or optimized kprobes or ftrace trampolines.

<title>perf map: Use strstarts() to look for Android libraries</title>

<content type='text'>
And add the '/' to avoid looking at things like "/system/libsomething",
when all we want to know if it is like "/system/lib/something", i.e. if
it is in that system library dir.

Using strstarts() avoids off-by-one errors like recently fixed in this
file.

Since this adds the '/' I separated this patch, another patch will make
this consistent by removing other strncmp(str, prefix, manually
calculated prefix length) usage.

<title>perf map: Fix off by one in strncpy() size argument</title>

<id>b8fdcfb5a17f1d4fd503caef5c457005a765ecd7</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch fixes an off-by-one error in strncpy size argument in
tools/perf/util/map.c. The issue is that in:

        strncmp(filename, "/system/lib/", 11)

the passed string literal: "/system/lib/" has 12 bytes (without the NULL
byte) and the passed size argument is 11. As a result, the logic won't
match the ending "/" byte and will pass filepaths that are stored in
other directories e.g. "/system/libmalicious/bin" or just
"/system/libmalicious".

This functionality seems to be present only on Android. I assume the
/system/ directory is only writable by the root user, so I don't think
this bug has much (or any) security impact.

Reviewer Notes:

Looks good to me. Some more context:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/DiagnosticsReference.html#wstring-compare
The spec says:
J.1 Unspecified behavior
The following are unspecified:
.. Whether two string literals result in distinct arrays (6.4.5).

So the kmaps pointer setup is centralized and we do not need to update
it in all those places (2 current places and few more missing) after
calling maps__insert().
