[ Upstream commit 98dcea0cfd04e083ac74137ceb9a632604740e2d ]

liblockdep has been broken since commit 75dd602a5198 ("lockdep: Fix
lock_chain::base size"), as that adds a check that MAX_LOCK_DEPTH is
within the range of lock_chain::depth and in liblockdep it is much
too large.

That should have resulted in a compiler error, but didn't because:

- the check uses ARRAY_SIZE(), which isn't yet defined in liblockdep
  so is assumed to be an (undeclared) function
- putting a function call inside a BUILD_BUG_ON() expression quietly
  turns it into some nonsense involving a variable-length array

It did produce a compiler warning, but I didn't notice because
liblockdep already produces too many warnings if -Wall is enabled
(which I'll fix shortly).

Even before that commit, which reduced lock_chain::depth from 8 bits
to 6, MAX_LOCK_DEPTH was too large.

[ Upstream commit 3ed5ca2efff70e9f589087c2013789572901112d ]

We catch this record to provide a visual indication that events are
getting lost, then call the default method to allow extra logging shared
with the other tools to take place.

This extra logging was done twice because we were continuing to the
"default" clause where machine__process_event() will end up calling
machine__process_lost_event() again, fix it.

[ Upstream commit a5e8e825bd1704c488bf6a46936aaf3b9f203d6a ]

The readdir() function is thread safe as long as just one thread uses a
DIR, which is the case in 'perf script', so, to avoid breaking the build
with glibc-2.23.90 (upcoming 2.24), use it instead of readdir_r().

See: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html

"However, in modern implementations (including the glibc implementation),
concurrent calls to readdir() that specify different directory streams
are thread-safe.  In cases where multiple threads must read from the
same directory stream, using readdir() with external synchronization is
still preferable to the use of the deprecated readdir_r(3) function."

Noticed while building on a Fedora Rawhide docker container.

[ Upstream commit d7dd112ea5cacf91ae72c0714c3b911eb6016fea ]

Fix below compile error:

  CC       util/scripting-engines/trace-event-perl.o
  In file included from /usr/lib/perl5/5.22.2/i686-linux/CORE/perl.h:5673:0,

          dTHX;   /* The function called below requires thread context */
			     ^
  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

After digging perl5 repository, I find out that we will meet this
compile error with perl from v5.21.1 to v5.25.4

[ Upstream commit bdf23a9a190d7ecea092fd5c4aabb7d4bd0a9980 ]

The size of dirent-&gt;dt_name is NAME_MAX + 1, but the size for the 'path'
buffer is hard coded at 256, which may truncate it because we also
prepend "/proc/", so that all that into account and thank gcc 7 for this
