[ Upstream commit 8e6e5bea2e34c61291d00cb3f47560341aa84bc3 ]

The events defined in pmu-events JSON are parsed and added into perf
tool. For fixed counters, we handle the encodings between JSON and perf
by using a static array fixed[].

But the fixed[] has missed an important event "cpu_clk_unhalted.core".

For example, on the Tremont platform,

  [root@localhost ~]# perf stat -e cpu_clk_unhalted.core -a
  event syntax error: 'cpu_clk_unhalted.core'
                       \___ parser error

With this patch, the event cpu_clk_unhalted.core can be parsed.

  [root@localhost perf]# ./perf stat -e cpu_clk_unhalted.core -a -vvv

[ Upstream commit 5f5e25f1c7933a6e1673515c0b1d5acd82fea1ed ]

cpu_map__snprint_mask() would write to illegal memory pointed by
zalloc(0) when there is only one cpu.

This patch fixes the calculation and adds sanity check against the input
parameters.

<title>perf ftrace: Fix failure to set cpumask when only one cpu is present</title>

[ Upstream commit cf30ae726c011e0372fd4c2d588466c8b50a8907 ]

The buffer containing the string used to set cpumask is overwritten at
the end of the string later in cpu_map__snprint_mask due to not enough
memory space, when there is only one cpu.

And thus causes the following failure:

  $ perf ftrace ls
  failed to reset ftrace
  $

This patch fixes the calculation of the cpumask string size.

<title>perf bench numa: Fix cpu0 binding</title>

[ Upstream commit 6bbfe4e602691b90ac866712bd4c43c51e546a60 ]

Michael reported an issue with perf bench numa failing with binding to
cpu0 with '-0' option.

  # perf bench numa mem -p 3 -t 1 -P 512 -s 100 -zZcm0 --thp 1 -M 1 -ddd
  # Running 'numa/mem' benchmark:

   # Running main, "perf bench numa numa-mem -p 3 -t 1 -P 512 -s 100 -zZcm0 --thp 1 -M 1 -ddd"
  binding to node 0, mask: 0000000000000001 =&gt; -1
  perf: bench/numa.c:356: bind_to_memnode: Assertion `!(ret)' failed.
  Aborted (core dumped)

This happens when the cpu0 is not part of node0, which is the benchmark
assumption and we can see that's not the case for some powerpc servers.

Using correct node for cpu0 binding.

<title>perf header: Fix use of unitialized value warning</title>

[ Upstream commit 20f9781f491360e7459c589705a2e4b1f136bee9 ]

When building our local version of perf with MSAN (Memory Sanitizer) and
running the perf record command, MSAN throws a use of uninitialized
value warning in "tools/perf/util/util.c:333:6".

This warning stems from the "buf" variable being passed into "write".
It originated as the variable "ev" with the type union perf_event*
defined in the "perf_event__synthesize_attr" function in
"tools/perf/util/header.c".

In the "perf_event__synthesize_attr" function they allocate space with a malloc
call using ev, then go on to only assign some of the member variables before
passing "ev" on as a parameter to the "process" function therefore "ev"
contains uninitialized memory. Changing the malloc call to zalloc to initialize
all the members of "ev" which gets rid of the warning.

To reproduce this warning, build perf by running:
make -C tools/perf CLANG=1 CC=clang EXTRA_CFLAGS="-fsanitize=memory\
 -fsanitize-memory-track-origins"

(Additionally, llvm might have to be installed and clang might have to
be specified as the compiler - export CC=/usr/bin/clang)

then running:
tools/perf/perf record -o - ls / | tools/perf/perf --no-pager annotate\
 -i - --stdio

Please see the cover letter for why false positive warnings may be
generated.

[ Upstream commit 7622236ceb167aa3857395f9bdaf871442aa467e ]

So I have been having lots of trouble with hand-crafted perf.data files
causing segfaults and the like, so I have started fuzzing the perf tool.

First issue found:

If f_header.attr_size is 0 in the perf.data file, then perf will crash
with a divide-by-zero error.

Committer note:

Added a pr_err() to tell the user why the command failed.

[ Upstream commit 7ee526152db7a75d7b8713346dac76ffc3662b29 ]

In addition to _IOW() and _IOR(), to handle this case:

  #define USBDEVFS_CONNINFO_EX(len)  _IOC(_IOC_READ, 'U', 32, len)

That will happen in the next sync of this header file.

<title>perf probe: Avoid calling freeing routine multiple times for same pointer</title>

[ Upstream commit d95daf5accf4a72005daa13fbb1d1bd8709f2861 ]

When perf_add_probe_events() we call cleanup_perf_probe_events() for the
pev pointer it receives, then, as part of handling this failure the main
'perf probe' goes on and calls cleanup_params() and that will again call
cleanup_perf_probe_events()for the same pointer, so just set nevents to
zero when handling the failure of perf_add_probe_events() to avoid the
double free.

[ Upstream commit 872c8ee8f0f47222f7b10da96eea84d0486540a3 ]

Fix decompression failure found during the loading of compressed trace
collected on larger scale systems (&gt;48 cores).

The error happened due to lack of decompression space for a mmaped
buffer data chunk split across adjacent PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED records.

  $ perf report -i bt.16384.data --stats
  failed to decompress (B): 63869 -&gt; 0 : Destination buffer is too small
  user stack dump failure
  Can't parse sample, err = -14
  0x2637e436 [0x4080]: failed to process type: 9
  Error:
  failed to process sample

  $ perf test 71
  71: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression              : Ok

<title>perf stat: Fix segfault for event group in repeat mode</title>

[ Upstream commit 08ef3af1579d0446db1c1bd08e2c42565addf10f ]

Numfor Mbiziwo-Tiapo reported segfault on stat of event group in repeat
mode:

  # perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}' -r 10 ls

It's caused by memory corruption due to not cleaned evsel's id array and
index, which needs to be rebuilt in every stat iteration. Currently the
ids index grows, while the array (which is also not freed) has the same
size.

Fixing this by releasing id array and zeroing ids index in
perf_evsel__close function.

We also need to keep the evsel_list alive for stat record (which is
disabled in repeat mode).
