[ Upstream commit c6aab66a728b6518772c74bd9dff66e1a1c652fd ]

Since the commit 6a13a0d7b4d1 ("ftrace/kprobe: Show the maxactive number
on kprobe_events") introduced to show the instance number of kretprobe
events, the length of the 1st format of the kprobe event will not 1, but
it can be longer.  This caused a parser error in perf-probe.

Skip the length check the 1st format of the kprobe event to accept this
instance number.

Without this fix:

  # perf probe -a vfs_read%return
  Added new event:
    probe:vfs_read__return (on vfs_read%return)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e probe:vfs_read__return -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l
  Semantic error :Failed to parse event name: r16:probe/vfs_read__return
    Error: Failed to show event list.

And with this fixes:

  # perf probe -a vfs_read%return
  ...
  # perf probe -l
    probe:vfs_read__return (on vfs_read%return)

<title>perf report: Fix no branch type statistics report issue</title>

<content type='text'>
commit c3b10649a80e9da2892c1fd3038c53abd57588f6 upstream.

Previously we could get the report of branch type statistics.

For example:

  # perf record -j any,save_type ...
  # t perf report --stdio

  #
  # Branch Statistics:
  #
  COND_FWD:  40.6%
  COND_BWD:   4.1%
  CROSS_4K:  24.7%
  CROSS_2M:  12.3%
      COND:  44.7%
    UNCOND:   0.0%
       IND:   6.1%
      CALL:  24.5%
       RET:  24.7%

But now for the recent perf, it can't report the branch type statistics.

It's a regression issue caused by commit 40c39e304641 ("perf report: Fix
a no annotate browser displayed issue"), which only counts the branch
type statistics for browser mode.

This patch moves the branch_type_count() outside of ui__has_annotation()
checking, then branch type statistics can work for stdio mode.

<title>perf tools: Support Python 3.8+ in Makefile</title>

commit b9c9ce4e598e012ca7c1813fae2f4d02395807de upstream.

Python 3.8 changed the output of 'python-config --ldflags' to no longer
include the '-lpythonX.Y' flag (this apparently fixed an issue loading
modules with a statically linked Python executable).  The libpython
feature check in linux/build/feature fails if the Python library is not
included in FEATURE_CHECK_LDFLAGS-libpython variable.

This adds a check in the Makefile to determine if PYTHON_CONFIG accepts
the '--embed' flag and passes that flag alongside '--ldflags' if so.

tools/perf is the only place the libpython feature check is used.

<title>perf python: Fix clang detection to strip out options passed in $CC</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 9ff76cea4e9e6d49a6f764ae114fc0fb8de97816 upstream.

The clang check in the python setup.py file expected $CC to be just the
name of the compiler, not the compiler + options, i.e. all options were
expected to be passed in $CFLAGS, this ends up making it fail in systems
where CC is set to, e.g.:

 "aarch64-linaro-linux-gcc --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/juno-linaro-linux/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot"

Like this:

  $ python3
  &gt;&gt;&gt; from subprocess import Popen
  &gt;&gt;&gt; a = Popen(["aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/juno-linaro-linux/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot", "-v"])
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
    File "/usr/lib/python3.6/subprocess.py", line 729, in __init__
      restore_signals, start_new_session)
    File "/usr/lib/python3.6/subprocess.py", line 1364, in _execute_child
      raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename)
  FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/juno-linaro-linux/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot': 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/juno-linaro-linux/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot'
  &gt;&gt;&gt;

Make it more robust, covering this case, by passing cc.split()[0] as the
first arg to popen().

Do not depend on dwfl_module_addrsym() because it can fail on user-space
shared libraries.

Actually, same bug was fixed by commit 664fee3dc379 ("perf probe: Do not
use dwfl_module_addrsym if dwarf_diename finds symbol name"), but commit
07d369857808 ("perf probe: Fix wrong address verification) reverted to
get actual symbol address from symtab.

This fixes it again by getting symbol address from DIE, and only if the
DIE has only address range, it uses dwfl_module_addrsym().

<title>perf probe: Fix to delete multiple probe event</title>

<id>6b8d68f1ce9266b05a55e93c62923ff51daae4c1</id>
<content type='text'>
When we put an event with multiple probes, perf-probe fails to delete
with filters. This comes from a failure to list up the event name
because of overwrapping its name.

To fix this issue, skip to list up the event which has same name.

Without this patch:

  # perf probe -l \*
    probe_perf:map__map_ip (on perf_sample__fprintf_brstackoff:21@
    probe_perf:map__map_ip (on perf_sample__fprintf_brstackoff:25@

    probe_perf:map__map_ip (on map__map_ip@util/map.h in /home/mhi
  # perf probe -d \*
  "*" does not hit any event.
    Error: Failed to delete events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)

When we put an event with multiple probes, perf-probe fails to delete
with filters. This comes from a failure to list up the event name
because of overwrapping its name.

To fix this issue, skip to list up the event which has same name.

Without this patch:

ADD_CONFIG_TERM accesses term-&gt;weak, however, in get_config_chgs this
value is accessed outside of the list_for_each_entry and references
invalid memory. Add an argument for ADD_CONFIG_TERM for weak and set it
to false in the get_config_chgs case.

This bug was cause by clang's address sanitizer and libfuzzer. It can be
reproduced with a command line of:

  perf stat -a -e i/bs,tsc,L2/o

<title>perf python: Fix clang detection when using CC=clang-version</title>

Currently, the setup.py script detects the clang compiler only when invoked
with CC=clang. But when using a specific version (e.g. CC=clang-11), this
doesn't work correctly and wrong compiler flags are set, leading to build
errors.

To properly detect clang, invoke the compiler with -v and check the output.
The first line should start with "clang version ...".

Committer testing:

  $

And here is how tools/perf/util/setup.py checks if the used clang has
options that the distro specific python extension building compiler
defaults:

  if cc_is_clang:
      from distutils.sysconfig import get_config_vars
      vars = get_config_vars()
      for var in ('CFLAGS', 'OPT'):
          vars[var] = sub("-specs=[^ ]+", "", vars[var])
          if not clang_has_option("-mcet"):
              vars[var] = sub("-mcet", "", vars[var])
          if not clang_has_option("-fcf-protection"):
              vars[var] = sub("-fcf-protection", "", vars[var])
          if not clang_has_option("-fstack-clash-protection"):
              vars[var] = sub("-fstack-clash-protection", "", vars[var])
          if not clang_has_option("-fstack-protector-strong"):
              vars[var] = sub("-fstack-protector-strong", "", vars[var])

So "-fcf-protection=full" is used, clang-9 has this option and thus it
was kept, the perf python extension was built with it and the build
completed successfully.

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.

<title>tools: Let O= makes handle a relative path with -C option</title>

When I tried to compile tools/perf from the top directory with the -C
option, the O= option didn't work correctly if I passed a relative path:

  $ make O=BUILD -C tools/perf/
  make: Entering directory '/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
  ../scripts/Makefile.include:4: *** O=/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf/BUILD does not exist.  Stop.
  make: *** [Makefile:70: all] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf'

The O= directory existence check failed because the check script ran in
the build target directory instead of the directory where I ran the make
command.

To fix that, once change directory to $(PWD) and check O= directory,
since the PWD is set to where the make command runs.
