[ Upstream commit af9cb29c5488381083b0b5ccdfb3cd931063384a ]

As the rseq selftests can run for a long period of time, disable the
timeout that the general selftests have.

[ Upstream commit c65e41538b04e0d64a673828745a00cb68a24371 ]

firmware attempts to load test modules that require root access
and fail. Fix it to check for root uid and exit with skip code
instead.

Before this fix:

selftests: firmware: fw_run_tests.sh
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'test_firmware': Operation not permitted
You must have the following enabled in your kernel:
CONFIG_TEST_FIRMWARE=y
CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=y
CONFIG_IKCONFIG=y
CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC=y
not ok 1 selftests: firmware: fw_run_tests.sh # SKIP

With this fix:

selftests: firmware: fw_run_tests.sh
skip all tests: must be run as root
not ok 1 selftests: firmware: fw_run_tests.sh # SKIP

[ Upstream commit 5cc6c8d4a99d0ee4d5466498e258e593df1d3eb6 ]

Fix multiple kprobe event testcase to work it correctly.
There are 2 bugfixes.
 - Since `wc -l FILE` returns not only line number but also
   FILE filename, following "if" statement always failed.
   Fix this bug by replacing it with 'cat FILE | wc -l'
 - Since "while do-done loop" block with pipeline becomes a
   subshell, $N local variable is not update outside of
   the loop.
   Fix this bug by using actual target number (256) instead
   of $N.

<title>rseq/selftests: Fix: Namespace gettid() for compatibility with glibc 2.30</title>

commit 8df34c56321479bfa1ec732c675b686c2b4df412 upstream.

glibc 2.30 introduces gettid() in public headers, which clashes with
the internal static definition within rseq selftests.

Rename gettid() to rseq_gettid() to eliminate this symbol name clash.

[ Upstream commit c588146378962786ddeec817f7736a53298a7b01 ]

The "path" buf is supposed to contain path + printf msg up to 24 bytes.
It will be cut anyway, but compiler generates truncation warns like:

"
samples/bpf/../../tools/testing/selftests/bpf/cgroup_helpers.c: In

[-Wformat-truncation=]
snprintf(path, sizeof(path), "%s/cgroup.controllers", cgroup_path);
				  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
samples/bpf/../../tools/testing/selftests/bpf/cgroup_helpers.c:52:2:

cgroup_path);
"

In order to avoid warns, lets decrease buf size for cgroup workdir on
24 bytes with assumption to include also "/cgroup.subtree_control" to
the address. The cut will never happen anyway.

When creating the second host in h2_create(), two addresses are assigned
to the interface, but only one is deleted. When running the test twice
in a row the following error is observed:

[ Upstream commit eafcd8e3fbad4f426a40ed2b6a8c697c3a4ef36a ]

Current core-pkey selftest fails if the test runs without privileges to
write into the core pattern file (/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern). This
causes the test to fail and give the impression that the subsystem being
tested is broken, when, in fact, the test is being executed without the
proper privileges. This is the current error:

	test: core_pkey
	tags: git_version:v4.19-3-g9e3363be9bce-dirty
	Error writing to core_pattern file: Permission denied
	failure: core_pkey

This patch simply skips this test if it runs without the proper privileges,
avoiding this undesired failure.

<title>selftests/powerpc: Allocate base registers</title>

[ Upstream commit 5249497a7bb6334fcc128588d6a7e1e21786515a ]

Some ptrace selftests are passing input operands using a constraint that
can allocate any register for the operand, and using these registers on
load/store operations.

If the register allocated by the compiler happens to be zero (r0), it might
cause an invalid memory address access, since load and store operations
consider the content of 0x0 address if the base register is r0, instead of
the content of the r0 register. For example:

	r1 := 0xdeadbeef
	r0 := 0xdeadbeef

	ld r2, 0(1) /* will load into r2 the content of r1 address */
	ld r2, 0(0) /* will load into r2 the content of 0x0 */

In order to avoid this possible problem, the inline assembly constraint
should be aware that these registers will be used as a base register, thus,
r0 should not be allocated.

Other than that, this patch removes inline assembly operands that are not
used by the tests.
