commit 41caff459a5b956b3e23ba9ca759dd0629ad3dda upstream.

These make the feature check fail when using clang, so remove them just
like is done in tools/perf/Makefile.config to build perf itself.

Adding -Wno-compound-token-split-by-macro to tools/perf/Makefile.config
when building with clang is also necessary to avoid these warnings
turned into errors (-Werror):

acme&gt;
acme&gt; So perhaps in this case its better to disable that

Yes, I think that is probably the best solution. As far as I can tell,
at least in this file and context, the warning appears harmless, as the
"create a GNU C statement expression from two different macros" is very
much intentional, based on the presence of PERL_USE_GCC_BRACE_GROUPS.
The warning is fixed in upstream Perl by just avoiding creating GNU C
statement expressions using STMT_START and STMT_END:

  https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/18780
  https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/18984

If I am reading the source code correctly, an alternative to disabling
the warning would be specifying -DPERL_GCC_BRACE_GROUPS_FORBIDDEN but it
seems like that might end up impacting more than just this site,
according to the issue discussion above.

<title>perf session: Remap buf if there is no space for event</title>

[ Upstream commit bc21e74d4775f883ae1f542c1f1dc7205b15d925 ]

If a perf event doesn't fit into remaining buffer space return NULL to
remap buf and fetch the event again.

Keep the logic to error out on inadequate input from fuzzing.

This fixes perf failing on ChromeOS (with 32b userspace):

  $ perf report -v -i perf.data
  ...
  prefetch_event: head=0x1fffff8 event-&gt;header_size=0x30, mmap_size=0x2000000: fuzzed or compressed perf.data?
  Error:
  failed to process sample

<title>perf symbols: Fix symbol size calculation condition</title>

commit 3cf6a32f3f2a45944dd5be5c6ac4deb46bcd3bee upstream.

Before this patch, the symbol end address fixup to be called, needed two
conditions being met:

  if (prev-&gt;end == prev-&gt;start &amp;&amp; prev-&gt;end != curr-&gt;start)

Where
  "prev-&gt;end == prev-&gt;start" means that prev is zero-long
                             (and thus needs a fixup)
and
  "prev-&gt;end != curr-&gt;start" means that fixup hasn't been applied yet

However, this logic is incorrect in the following situation:

*curr  = {rb_node = {__rb_parent_color = 278218928,
  rb_right = 0x0, rb_left = 0x0},
  start = 0xc000000000062354,
  end = 0xc000000000062354, namelen = 40, type = 2 '\002',
  binding = 0 '\000', idle = 0 '\000', ignore = 0 '\000',
  inlined = 0 '\000', arch_sym = 0 '\000', annotate2 = false,
  name = 0x1159739e "kprobe_optinsn_page\t[__builtin__kprobes]"}

*prev = {rb_node = {__rb_parent_color = 278219041,
  rb_right = 0x109548b0, rb_left = 0x109547c0},
  start = 0xc000000000062354,
  end = 0xc000000000062354, namelen = 12, type = 2 '\002',
  binding = 1 '\001', idle = 0 '\000', ignore = 0 '\000',
  inlined = 0 '\000', arch_sym = 0 '\000', annotate2 = false,
  name = 0x1095486e "optinsn_slot"}

In this case, prev-&gt;start == prev-&gt;end == curr-&gt;start == curr-&gt;end,
thus the condition above thinks that "we need a fixup due to zero
length of prev symbol, but it has been probably done, since the
prev-&gt;end == curr-&gt;start", which is wrong.

After the patch, the execution path proceeds to arch__symbols__fixup_end
function which fixes up the size of prev symbol by adding page_size to
its end offset.

  name = 0x1159739e "kprobe_optinsn_page\t[__builtin__kprobes]"}

*prev = {rb_node = {__rb_parent_color = 278219041,
  rb_right = 0x109548b0, rb_left = 0x109547c0},
  start = 0xc000000000062354,
  end = 0xc000000000062354, namelen = 12, type = 2 '\002',
  binding = 1 '\001', idle = 0 '\000', ignore = 0 '\000',
  inlined = 0 '\000', arch_sym = 0 '\000', annotate2 = false,
  name = 0x1095486e "optinsn_slot"}

In this case, prev-&gt;start == prev-&gt;end == curr-&gt;start == curr-&gt;end,
thus the condition above thinks that "we need a fixup due to zero
length of prev symbol, but it has been probably done, since the
prev-&gt;end == curr-&gt;start", which is wrong.

After the patch, the execution path proceeds to arch__symbols__fixup_end
function which fixes up the size of prev symbol by adding page_size to
its end offset.

<title>perf data: Fix double free in perf_session__delete()</title>

commit 69560e366fc4d5fca7bebb0e44edbfafc8bcaf05 upstream.

When perf_data__create_dir() fails, it calls close_dir(), but
perf_session__delete() also calls close_dir() and since dir.version and
dir.nr were initialized by perf_data__create_dir(), a double free occurs.

This patch moves the initialization of dir.version and dir.nr after
successful initialization of dir.files, that prevents double freeing.
This behavior is already implemented in perf_data__open_dir().

<title>perf probe: Fix ppc64 'perf probe add events failed' case</title>

commit 4624f199327a704dd1069aca1c3cadb8f2a28c6f upstream.

Because of commit bf794bf52a80c627 ("powerpc/kprobes: Fix kallsyms
lookup across powerpc ABIv1 and ABIv2"), in ppc64 ABIv1, our perf
command eliminates the need to use the prefix "." at the symbol name.

But when the command "perf probe -a schedule" is executed on ppc64
ABIv1, it obtains two symbol address information through /proc/kallsyms,
for example:

  cat /proc/kallsyms | grep -w schedule
  c000000000657020 T .schedule
  c000000000d4fdb8 D schedule

The symbol "D schedule" is not a function symbol, and perf will print:
"p:probe/schedule _text+13958584"Failed to write event: Invalid argument

Therefore, when searching symbols from map and adding probe point for
them, a symbol type check is added. If the type of symbol is not a
function, skip it.

commit 62942e9fda9fd1def10ffcbd5e1c025b3c9eec17 upstream.

Using grep -C with perf script -D can give erroneous results as grep loses
lines due to non-printable characters, for example, below the 0020, 0060
and 0070 lines are missing:

 $ perf script -D | grep -C10 AUX | head
 .  0010:  08 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 1f 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................

   PMU Type            8
   Time Shift          31

perf's isprint() is a custom implementation from the kernel, but the
kernel's _ctype appears to include characters from Latin-1 Supplement which
is not compatible with, for example, UTF-8. Fix by checking also isascii().

After:

 $ tools/perf/perf script -D | grep -C10 AUX | head

  $ find tools/ -type f | xargs grep feature-libpython-version
  $

The only place where this was used was removed in 66dfdff03d196e51:

  -        ifneq ($(feature-libpython-version), 1)
  -          $(warning Python 3 is not yet supported; please set)
  -          $(warning PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG appropriately.)
  -          $(warning If you also have Python 2 installed, then)
  -          $(warning try something like:)
  -          $(warning $(and ,))
  -          $(warning $(and ,)  make PYTHON=python2)
  -          $(warning $(and ,))
  -          $(warning Otherwise, disable Python support entirely:)
  -          $(warning $(and ,))
  -          $(warning $(and ,)  make NO_LIBPYTHON=1)
  -          $(warning $(and ,))
  -          $(error   $(and ,))
  -        else
  -          LDFLAGS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LDFLAGS)
  -          EXTLIBS += $(PYTHON_EMBED_LIBADD)
  -          LANG_BINDINGS += $(obj-perf)python/perf.so
  -          $(call detected,CONFIG_LIBPYTHON)
  -        endif

And nowadays we either build with PYTHON=python3 or just install the
python3 devel packages and perf will build against it.

But the leftover feature-libpython-version check made the fast path
feature detection to break in all cases except when python2 devel files
were installed:

  $ rpm -qa | grep python.*devel
  python3-devel-3.9.7-1.fc34.x86_64
  $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j32' parallel build
    HOSTCC  /tmp/build/perf/fixdep.o
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output
  In file included from test-all.c:18:
  test-libpython-version.c:5:10: error: #error
      5 |         #error
        |          ^~~~~
  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep python
	libpython3.9.so.1.0 =&gt; /lib64/libpython3.9.so.1.0 (0x00007fda6dbcf000)
  $

As python3 is the norm these days, fix this by just removing the unused
feature-libpython-version feature check, making the test-all fast path
to work with the common case.

With this:

  $ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin |&amp; head
  make: Entering directory '/var/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j32' parallel build
    HOSTCC  /tmp/build/perf/fixdep.o
    HOSTLD  /tmp/build/perf/fixdep-in.o
    LINK    /tmp/build/perf/fixdep

  $ ldd ~/bin/perf | grep python

commit 3d1d57debee2d342a47615707588b96658fabb85 upstream.

Since 66dfdff03d196e51 ("perf tools: Add Python 3 support") we don't use
the tools/build/feature/test-libpython-version.c version in any Makefile
feature check:

  $ find tools/ -type f | xargs grep feature-libpython-version
  $

The only place where this was used was removed in 66dfdff03d196e51:

  -        ifneq ($(feature-libpython-version), 1)
  -          $(warning Python 3 is not yet supported; please set)

<title>perf report: Fix memory leaks around perf_tip()</title>

[ Upstream commit d9fc706108c15f8bc2d4ccccf8e50f74830fabd9 ]

perf_tip() may allocate memory or use a literal, this means memory
wasn't freed if allocated. Change the API so that literals aren't used.

At the same time add missing frees for system_path. These issues were
spotted using leak sanitizer.
