commit 2e2bbc039fad9eabad6c4c1a473c8b2554cdd2d4 upstream.

Addressing a few cases spotted by a new warning in gcc 7:

commit 32677207dcc5e594254b7fb4fb2352b1755b1d5b upstream.

The child_exit errno needs to be shifted by 8 bits to compare against the
return values for the bisect variables.

Nothing in this minimal script seems to require bash. We often run these
tests on embedded devices where the only shell available is the busybox
ash. Use sh instead.

<title>perf trace: Use the syscall raw_syscalls:sys_enter timestamp</title>

commit ecf1e2253ea79c6204f4d6a5e756e8fb4aed5a7e upstream.

Instead of the one when another syscall takes place while another is being
processed (in another CPU, but we show it serialized, so need to "interrupt"
the other), and also when finally showing the sys_enter + sys_exit + duration,
where we were showing the sample-&gt;time for the sys_exit, duh.

Before:

  # perf trace sleep 1
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
     0.373 (   0.001 ms): close(fd: 3                   ) = 0
  1000.626 (1000.211 ms): nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffd6ddddfb0) = 0
  1000.653 (   0.003 ms): close(fd: 1                   ) = 0
  1000.657 (   0.002 ms): close(fd: 2                   ) = 0
  1000.667 (   0.000 ms): exit_group(                   )
  #

After:

  # perf trace sleep 1
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
     0.336 (   0.001 ms): close(fd: 3                   ) = 0
     0.373 (1000.086 ms): nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffe303e9550) = 0
  1000.481 (   0.002 ms): close(fd: 1                   ) = 0
  1000.485 (   0.001 ms): close(fd: 2                   ) = 0

<title>perf symbols: Fixup symbol sizes before picking best ones</title>

commit 432746f8e0b6a82ba832b771afe31abd51af6752 upstream.

When we call symbol__fixup_duplicate() we use algorithms to pick the
"best" symbols for cases where there are various functions/aliases to an
address, and those check zero size symbols, which, before calling
symbol__fixup_end() are _all_ symbols in a just parsed kallsyms file.

So first fixup the end, then fixup the duplicates.

Found while trying to figure out why 'perf test vmlinux' failed, see the
output of 'perf test -v vmlinux' to see cases where the symbols picked
as best for vmlinux don't match the ones picked for kallsyms.

commit 2d6a4d64812bb12dda53704943b61a7496d02098 upstream.

The curly braces are missing here so we print stuff unintentionally.
