[ Upstream commit e9229d5b6254a75291536f582652c599957344d2 ]

Commit 0cc177cfc95d565e ("perf vendor events arm64: Add Hisi hip08 L3
metrics") add L3 metrics of hip08, but some metrics (IF_BP_MISP_BR_RET,
IF_BP_MISP_BR_RET, IF_BP_MISP_BR_BL) have incorrect event number due to
the mistakes in document, which caused incorrect result. Fix the
incorrect metrics.

Before:

  65,811,214,308	armv8_pmuv3_0/event=0x1014/	# 18.87 push_branch
  							# -40.19 other_branch
  3,564,316,780	BR_MIS_PRED				# 0.51 indirect_branch
  							# 21.81 pop_branch

After:

  6,537,146,245	BR_MIS_PRED			# 0.48 indirect_branch
  						# 0.47 pop_branch
  						# 0.00 push_branch
  						# 0.05 other_branch

<title>perf list: Fix PMU name pai_crypto in perf list on s390</title>

[ Upstream commit 5a6c184a72a375072cffe788d93ad6052c48f16b ]

Commit e0b23af82d6f454c ("perf list: Add PMU pai_crypto event
description for IBM z16") introduced the "Processor Activity
Instrumentation" for cryptographic counters for z16. The PMU device
driver exports the counters via sysfs files listed in directory
/sys/devices/pai_crypto.

To specify an event from that PMU, use 'perf stat -e pai_crypto/XXX/'.

However the JSON file mentioned in above commit exports the counter
decriptions in file pmu-events/arch/s390/cf_z16/pai.json.  Rename this
file to pmu-events/arch/s390/cf_z16/pai_crypto.json to make the naming
consistent.

Now 'perf list' shows the counter names under pai_crypto section:

  pai_crypto:

    CRYPTO_ALL
         [CRYPTO ALL. Unit: pai_crypto]
    ...

Output before was

  pai:
    CRYPTO_ALL
         [CRYPTO ALL. Unit: pai_crypto]
    ...

[ Upstream commit b92dd11725a7c57f55e148c7d3ce58a86f480575 ]

Testcase stat_all_metrics.sh fails in powerpc:

  90: perf all metrics test : FAILED!

The testcase "stat_all_metrics.sh" verifies perf stat result for all the
metric events present in perf list.  It runs perf metric events with
various commands and expects non-empty metric result.

Incase of powerpc:hv-24x7 events, some of the event count can be 0 based
on system configuration. And if that event used as denominator in divide
equation, it can cause divide by 0 error. The current nest_metric.json
file creating divide by 0 issue for some of the metric events, which
results in failure of the "stat_all_metrics.sh" test case.

Most of the metrics events have cycles or an event which expect to have
a larger value as denominator, so adding 1 to the denominator of the
metric expression as a fix.

Result in powerpc box after this patch changes:

  90: perf all metrics test : Ok

commit cba04f3136b658583adb191556f99d087589c1cc upstream.

For modules, names from kallsyms__parse() contain the module name which
meant that module symbols did not match exactly by name.

Fix by matching the name string up to the separating tab character.

commit 6cef7dab3e2e5cb23a13569c3880c0532326748c upstream.

User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, so when tracing selected CPUs,
system-wide sideband is still needed, however evlist-&gt;core.has_user_cpus
is not set in the hybrid case, so check the target cpu_list instead.

commit 5a3d47071f0ced0431ef82a5fb6bd077ed9493db upstream.

uClibc segfaulted because NULL was passed as the format to fprintf().

That happened because one of the format strings was missing and
intel_pt_print_info() didn't check that before calling fprintf().

Add the missing format string, and check format is not NULL before calling
fprintf().

commit e552b7be12ed62357df84392efa525ecb01910fb upstream.

If the kernel exposes a new perf_event_attr field in a format attr, perf
will return an error stating the specified PMU can't be found. For
example, a format attr with 'config3:0-63' causes an error as config3 is
unknown to perf. This causes a compatibility issue between a newer
kernel with older perf tool.

Before this change with a kernel adding 'config3' I get:

  $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true
  event syntax error: 'arm_spe//'
                       \___ Cannot find PMU `arm_spe'. Missing kernel support?
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]
      or: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] -- &lt;command&gt; [&lt;options&gt;]

      -e, --event &lt;event&gt;   event selector. use 'perf list' to list
  available events

After this change, I get:

  $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true
  WARNING: 'arm_spe_0' format 'inv_event_filter' requires 'perf_event_attr::config3' which is not supported by this version of perf!
  [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.091 MB perf.data ]

To support unknown configN formats, rework the YACC implementation to
pass any config[0-9]+ format to perf_pmu__new_format() to handle with a
warning.

A brown paper bag where -Wno-error=deprecated-declarations was added
from compiler output when the right thing is to add
-Wno-deprecated-declarations, fix it.

A clang 15 build reveal several unused-but-set variables, removing the
'foo' variable in tests/mmap-basic.o object to address one of those
cases.

clang 15 now warns:

    make[3]: *** [/git/perf-6.0.0-rc7/tools/build/Makefile.build:139: util] Error 2

Just ignore one more compiler warning for the bison generated C code.

Committer notes:

Older clangs don't know about -Wunused-but-set-variable, so we need to
add -Wno-unknown-warning-option to avoid this:

  37    44.92 fedora:32                     : FAIL clang version 10.0.1 (Fedora 10.0.1-3.fc32)
