[ Upstream commit f96b4675839b66168f5a07bf964dde6c2f1c4885 ]

Use get_unaligned() instead of memcpy() to access potentially unaligned
memory, which, when accessed through a pointer, leads to undefined
behavior. get_unaligned() describes much better what is happening there
anyway even if memcpy() does the job.

In addition, since perf tool builds with -Werror, it would fire with:

  util/intel-pt-decoder/../../../arch/x86/lib/insn.c: In function '__insn_get_emulate_prefix':
  tools/include/../include/asm-generic/unaligned.h:10:15: error: packed attribute is unnecessary [-Werror=packed]
     10 |  const struct { type x; } __packed *__pptr = (typeof(__pptr))(ptr); \

because -Werror=packed would complain if the packed attribute would have
no effect on the layout of the structure.

In this case, that is intentional so disable the warning only for that
compilation unit.

That part is Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell &lt;sfr@canb.auug.org.au&gt;

No functional changes.

<title>perf tools: Allow build-id with trailing zeros</title>

commit 4a86d41404005a3c7e7b6065e8169ac6202887a9 upstream.

Currently perf saves a build-id with size but old versions assumes the
size of 20.  In case the build-id is less than 20 (like for MD5), it'd
fill the rest with 0s.

I saw a problem when old version of perf record saved a binary in the
build-id cache and new version of perf reads the data.  The symbols
should be read from the build-id cache (as the path no longer has the
same binary) but it failed due to mismatch in the build-id.

  symsrc__init: build id mismatch for /home/namhyung/.debug/.build-id/53/e4c2f42a4c61a2d632d92a72afa08f00000000/elf.

The build-id event in the data has 20 byte build-ids, but it saw a
different size (16) when it reads the build-id of the elf file in the
build-id cache.

  $ readelf -n ~/.debug/.build-id/53/e4c2f42a4c61a2d632d92a72afa08f00000000/elf

  Displaying notes found in: .note.gnu.build-id

      Build ID: 53e4c2f42a4c61a2d632d92a72afa08f

Let's fix this by allowing trailing zeros if the size is different.

<title>perf symbol: Look for ImageBase in PE file to compute .text offset</title>

commit d2930ede5218be28413a00130a6895d14393c325 upstream.

Instead of using the file offset in the debug file.

This fixes a regression from 00a3423492bc90be ("perf symbols: Make
dso__load_bfd_symbols() load PE files from debug cache only"), causing
incorrect symbol resolution when debug file have been stripped from
non-debug sections (in which case its .text section is empty and doesn't
have any file position).

The debug files could also be created with a different file alignment,
and have different file positions from the mmap-ed binary, or have the
section reordered.

This instead looks for the file image base, using the corresponding bfd
*ABS* symbols. As PE symbols only have 4 bytes, it also needs to keep
.text section vma high bits.

[ Upstream commit 261f491133aecb943ccfdc3b3794e2d775607a87 ]

Acaict, perf_home_perfconfig() is supposed to cache the result of
home_perfconfig, which returns the default location of perfconfig for
the user, given the HOME environment variable.

However, the current implementation calls home_perfconfig every time
perf_home_perfconfig() is called (so no caching is actually performed),
replacing the previous pointer, thus also causing a memory leak.

This patch adds a check of whether either config or failed is set and,
in that case, directly returns config without calling home_perfconfig at
each invocation.

If you look at the frame #2, the code is:

488	 if (he-&gt;srcline) {
489          he-&gt;srcline = strdup(he-&gt;srcline);
490          if (he-&gt;srcline == NULL)
491              goto err_rawdata;
492	 }

If he-&gt;srcline is not NULL (it is not NULL if it is uninitialized rubbish),
it gets strdupped and strdupping a rubbish random string causes the problem.

Also, if you look at the commit 1fb7d06a509e, it adds the srcline property
into the struct, but not initializing it everywhere needed.

Committer notes:

Now I see, when using --ignore-callees=do_idle we end up here at line
2189 in add_callchain_ip():

2181         if (al.sym != NULL) {
2182                 if (perf_hpp_list.parent &amp;&amp; !*parent &amp;&amp;
2183                     symbol__match_regex(al.sym, &amp;parent_regex))
2184                         *parent = al.sym;
2185                 else if (have_ignore_callees &amp;&amp; root_al &amp;&amp;
2186                   symbol__match_regex(al.sym, &amp;ignore_callees_regex)) {
2187                         /* Treat this symbol as the root,
2188                            forgetting its callees. */
2189                         *root_al = al;
2190                         callchain_cursor_reset(cursor);
2191                 }
2192         }

And the al that doesn't have the -&gt;srcline field initialized will be
copied to the root_al, so then, back to:

1211 int hist_entry_iter__add(struct hist_entry_iter *iter, struct addr_location *al,
1212                          int max_stack_depth, void *arg)
1213 {
1214         int err, err2;
1215         struct map *alm = NULL;
1216
1217         if (al)
1218                 alm = map__get(al-&gt;map);
1219
1220         err = sample__resolve_callchain(iter-&gt;sample, &amp;callchain_cursor, &amp;iter-&gt;parent,
1221                                         iter-&gt;evsel, al, max_stack_depth);
1222         if (err) {
1223                 map__put(alm);
1224                 return err;
1225         }
1226
1227         err = iter-&gt;ops-&gt;prepare_entry(iter, al);
1228         if (err)
1229                 goto out;
1230
1231         err = iter-&gt;ops-&gt;add_single_entry(iter, al);
1232         if (err)
1233                 goto out;
1234

That al at line 1221 is what hist_entry_iter__add() (called from
sample__resolve_callchain()) saw as 'root_al', and then:

        iter-&gt;ops-&gt;add_single_entry(iter, al);

will go on with al-&gt;srcline with a bogus value, I'll add the above
sequence to the cset and apply, thanks!

This makes 'perf top' abort in some cases, and the right fix will
involve surgery that is too much to do at this stage, so revert for now
and fix it in the next merge window.

<title>perf pmu: Fix alias matching</title>

Commit c47a5599eda324ba ("perf tools: Fix pattern matching for same
substring in different PMU type"), may have fixed some alias matching,
but has broken some others.

Firstly it cannot handle the simple scenario of PMU name in form
pmu_name{digits} - it can only handle pmu_name_{digits}.

Secondly it cannot handle more complex matching in the case where we
have multiple tokens. In this scenario, the code failed to realise that
we may examine multiple substrings in the PMU name.

Fix in two ways:

- Change perf_pmu__valid_suffix() to accept a PMU name without '_' in the
  suffix

- Only pay attention to perf_pmu__valid_suffix() for the final token

Also add const qualifiers as necessary to avoid casting.

Commit c47a5599eda324ba ("perf tools: Fix pattern matching for same
substring in different PMU type"), may have fixed some alias matching,
but has broken some others.

Firstly it cannot handle the simple scenario of PMU name in form
pmu_name{digits} - it can only handle pmu_name_{digits}.

Secondly it cannot handle more complex matching in the case where we
have multiple tokens. In this scenario, the code failed to realise that
we may examine multiple substrings in the PMU name.

Fix in two ways:

- Change perf_pmu__valid_suffix() to accept a PMU name without '_' in the
  suffix

- Only pay attention to perf_pmu__valid_suffix() for the final token

Also add const qualifiers as necessary to avoid casting.

<title>perf cs-etm: Split --dump-raw-trace by AUX records</title>

Currently --dump-raw-trace skips queueing and splitting buffers because
of an early exit condition in cs_etm__process_auxtrace_info(). Once
that is removed we can print the split data by using the queues
and searching for split buffers with the same reference as the
one that is currently being processed.

This keeps the same behaviour of dumping in file order when an AUXTRACE
event appears, rather than moving trace dump to where AUX records are in
the file.

There will be a newline and size printout for each fragment. For example
this buffer is comprised of two AUX records, but was printed as one:

  0 0 0x8098 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE size: 0xa0  offset: 0  ref: 0x491a4dfc52fc0e6e  idx: 0  t

  . ... CoreSight ETM Trace data: size 160 bytes
          Idx:0; ID:10;   I_ASYNC : Alignment Synchronisation.
          Idx:12; ID:10;  I_TRACE_INFO : Trace Info.; INFO=0x0 { CC.0 }
          Idx:17; ID:10;  I_ADDR_L_64IS0 : Address, Long, 64 bit, IS0.; Addr=0x0000000000000000;
          Idx:80; ID:10;  I_ASYNC : Alignment Synchronisation.
          Idx:92; ID:10;  I_TRACE_INFO : Trace Info.; INFO=0x0 { CC.0 }
          Idx:97; ID:10;  I_ADDR_L_64IS0 : Address, Long, 64 bit, IS0.; Addr=0xFFFFDE2AD3FD76D4;

But is now printed as two fragments:

  0 0 0x8098 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE size: 0xa0  offset: 0  ref: 0x491a4dfc52fc0e6e  idx: 0  t

  . ... CoreSight ETM Trace data: size 80 bytes
          Idx:0; ID:10;   I_ASYNC : Alignment Synchronisation.
          Idx:12; ID:10;  I_TRACE_INFO : Trace Info.; INFO=0x0 { CC.0 }
          Idx:17; ID:10;  I_ADDR_L_64IS0 : Address, Long, 64 bit, IS0.; Addr=0x0000000000000000;

          Idx:97; ID:10;  I_ADDR_L_64IS0 : Address, Long, 64 bit, IS0.; Addr=0xFFFFDE2AD3FD76D4;

Decoding errors that appeared in problematic files are now not present,
for example:

        Idx:808; ID:1c; I_BAD_SEQUENCE : Invalid Sequence in packet.[I_ASYNC]
        ...
        PKTP_ETMV4I_0016 : 0x0014 (OCSD_ERR_INVALID_PCKT_HDR) [Invalid packet header]; TrcIdx=822
