[ Upstream commit f4bf09dc3aaa4b07cd15630f2023f68cb2668809 ]

The ia64_mf() macro defined in tools/arch/ia64/include/asm/barrier.h is
already defined in &lt;asm/gcc_intrin.h&gt; on ia64 which causes libbpf
failing to build:

Since we have the lenghts for what lands in that place, use it to give
the compiler more info and make it happy.

<title>perf auxtrace: Fix auxtrace queue conflict</title>

[ Upstream commit b410ed2a8572d41c68bd9208555610e4b07d0703 ]

The only requirement of an auxtrace queue is that the buffers are in
time order.  That is achieved by making separate queues for separate
perf buffer or AUX area buffer mmaps.

That generally means a separate queue per cpu for per-cpu contexts, and
a separate queue per thread for per-task contexts.

When buffers are added to a queue, perf checks that the buffer cpu and
thread id (tid) match the queue cpu and thread id.

However, generally, that need not be true, and perf will queue buffers
correctly anyway, so the check is not needed.

In addition, the check gets erroneously hit when using sample mode to
trace multiple threads.

Consequently, fix that case by removing the check.

commit 4541a8bb13a86e504416a13360c8dc64d2fd612a upstream.

Laura reported that the perf build failed in fedora when we got a glibc
that provides gettid(), which I reproduced using fedora rawhide with the
glibc-devel-2.29.9000-26.fc31.x86_64 package.

Add a feature check to avoid providing a gettid() helper in such
systems.

On a fedora rawhide system with this patch applied we now get:

commit 4541a8bb13a86e504416a13360c8dc64d2fd612a upstream.

Laura reported that the perf build failed in fedora when we got a glibc
that provides gettid(), which I reproduced using fedora rawhide with the
glibc-devel-2.29.9000-26.fc31.x86_64 package.

Add a feature check to avoid providing a gettid() helper in such

commit 11c6cbe706f218a8dc7e1f962f12b3a52ddd33a9 upstream.

A new 'perf bench epoll' will use this, and to disable it for older
systems, add a feature test for this API.

This is just a simple program that if successfully compiled, means that
the feature is present, at least at the library level, in a build that
sets the output directory to /tmp/build/perf (using O=/tmp/build/perf),
we end up with:

  $ ls -la /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd*
  -rwxrwxr-x. 1 acme acme 8176 Nov 21 15:58 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd.bin
  -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme  588 Nov 21 15:58 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd.d
  -rw-rw-r--. 1 acme acme    0 Nov 21 15:58 /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd.make.output
  $ ldd /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-eventfd.bin
	  linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff3bf3f000)
	  libc.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007fa984061000)
	  /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fa984417000)
  $ grep eventfd -A 2 -B 2 /tmp/build/perf/FEATURE-DUMP
  feature-dwarf=1
  feature-dwarf_getlocations=1
  feature-eventfd=1
  feature-fortify-source=1
  feature-sync-compare-and-swap=1
  $

The main thing here is that in the end we'll have -DHAVE_EVENTFD in
CFLAGS, and then the 'perf bench' entry needing that API can be
selectively pruned.

commit 8feb8efef97a134933620071e0b6384cb3238b4e upstream.

As the namespace support code will use this, which is not available in
some non _GNU_SOURCE libraries such as Android's bionic used in my
container build tests (r12b and r15c at the moment).

<title>perf tools: Use %define api.pure full instead of %pure-parser</title>

commit fc8c0a99223367b071c83711259d754b6bb7a379 upstream.

bison deprecated the "%pure-parser" directive in favor of "%define
api.pure full".

The api.pure got introduced in bison 2.3 (Oct 2007), so it seems safe to
use it without any version check.
