[ Upstream commit 7c27a26e1ed5a7dd709aa19685d2c98f64e1cf0c ]

There are some powerpc selftests, as tm/tm-unavailable, that run for a long
period (&gt;120 seconds), and if it is interrupted, as pressing CRTL-C
(SIGINT), the foreground process (harness) dies but the child process and
threads continue to execute (with PPID = 1 now) in background.

In this case, you'd think the whole test exited, but there are remaining
threads and processes being executed in background. Sometimes these
zombies processes are doing annoying things, as consuming the whole CPU or
dumping things to STDOUT.

This patch fixes this problem by attaching an empty signal handler to
SIGINT in the harness process. This handler will interrupt (EINTR) the
parent process waitpid() call, letting the code to follow through the
normal flow, which will kill all the processes in the child process group.

This patch also fixes a typo.

[ Upstream commit 354b064b8ebc1e1ede58550ca9e08bfa81e6af43 ]

In some cases, a symbol may have multiple aliases. Attempting to add an
entry probe for such symbols results in a probe being added at an
incorrect location while it fails altogether for return probes. This is
only applicable for binaries with debug information.

During the arch-dependent post-processing, the offset from the start of
the symbol at which the probe is to be attached is determined and added
to the start address of the symbol to get the probe's location.  In case
there are multiple aliases, this offset gets added multiple times for
each alias of the symbol and we end up with an incorrect probe location.

This can be verified on a powerpc64le system as shown below.

  $ nm /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/vmlinux | grep "sys_open$"
  ...
  c000000000414290 T __se_sys_open
  c000000000414290 T sys_open

  $ objdump -d /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/vmlinux | grep -A 10 "&lt;__se_sys_open&gt;:"

  c000000000414290 &lt;__se_sys_open&gt;:

  c000000000414294:       70 c4 42 38     addi    r2,r2,-15248
  c000000000414298:       a6 02 08 7c     mflr    r0
  c00000000041429c:       e8 ff a1 fb     std     r29,-24(r1)
  c0000000004142a0:       f0 ff c1 fb     std     r30,-16(r1)
  c0000000004142a4:       f8 ff e1 fb     std     r31,-8(r1)
  c0000000004142a8:       10 00 01 f8     std     r0,16(r1)
  c0000000004142ac:       c1 ff 21 f8     stdu    r1,-64(r1)

  c0000000004142b4:       78 1b 7e 7c     mr      r30,r3

  For both the entry probe and the return probe, the probe location
  should be _text+4276888 (0xc000000000414298). Since another alias
  exists for 'sys_open', the post-processing code will end up adding
  the offset (8 for powerpc64le) twice and perf will attempt to add
  the probe at _text+4276896 (0xc0000000004142a0) instead.

[ Upstream commit 3f4417d693b43fa240ac8bde4487f67745ca23d8 ]

The argument to nsinfo__copy() was assumed to be valid, but some code paths
exist that will lead to NULL being passed.

In particular, running 'perf script -D' on a perf.data file containing an
PERF_RECORD_MMAP event associating the '[vdso]' dso with pid 0 earlier in
the event stream will lead to a segfault.

Since all calling code is already checking for a non-null return value,
just return NULL for this case as well.

commit 99cbbe56eb8bede625f410ab62ba34673ffa7d21 upstream.

When the number of queues grows beyond 32, the array of queues is
resized but not all members were being copied. Fix by also copying
'tid', 'cpu' and 'set'.

commit 99cbbe56eb8bede625f410ab62ba34673ffa7d21 upstream.

When the number of queues grows beyond 32, the array of queues is
resized but not all members were being copied. Fix by also copying
'tid', 'cpu' and 'set'.

[ Upstream commit 5aa3d1a20a233d4a5f1ec3d62da3f19d9afea682 ]

This fixes the reported family on modern AMD processors (e.g. Ryzen,
which is family 0x17). Previously these processors all showed up as
family 0xf.

See the document
https://support.amd.com/TechDocs/56255_OSRR.pdf
section CPUID_Fn00000001_EAX for how to calculate the family
from the BaseFamily and ExtFamily values.

This matches the code in arch/x86/lib/cpu.c

[ Upstream commit 82f4f3e69c5c29bce940dd87a2c0f16c51d48d17 ]

Add a testcase for checking snapshot and tracing_on
relationship. This ensures that the snapshotting doesn't
affect current tracing on/off settings.

<title>tools: usb: ffs-test: Fix build on big endian systems</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit a2b22dddc7bb6110ac3b5ed1a60aa9279836fadb ]

The tools/usb/ffs-test.c file defines cpu_to_le16/32 by using the C
library htole16/32 function calls. However, cpu_to_le16/32 are used when
initializing structures, i.e in a context where a function call is not
allowed.

It works fine on little endian systems because htole16/32 are defined by
the C library as no-ops. But on big-endian systems, they are actually
doing something, which might involve calling a function, causing build
failures, such as:

   ffs-test.c:48:25: error: initializer element is not constant
    #define cpu_to_le32(x)  htole32(x)
                            ^~~~~~~
   ffs-test.c:128:12: note: in expansion of macro ‘cpu_to_le32’
      .magic = cpu_to_le32(FUNCTIONFS_DESCRIPTORS_MAGIC_V2),
               ^~~~~~~~~~~

To solve this, we code cpu_to_le16/32 in a way that allows them to be
used when initializing structures. This fix was imported from
meta-openembedded/android-tools/fix-big-endian-build.patch written by
Thomas Petazzoni &lt;thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com&gt;.

<title>perf script python: Fix dict reference counting</title>

[ Upstream commit db0ba84c04ef2cf293aaada5ae97531127844d9d ]

The dictionaries are attached to the parameter tuple that steals the
references and takes care of releasing them when appropriate.  The code
should not decrement the reference counts explicitly.  E.g. if libpython
has been built with reference debugging enabled, the superfluous DECREFs
will trigger this error when running perf script:

  Fatal Python error: Objects/tupleobject.c:238 object at
  0x7f10f2041b40 has negative ref count -1
  Aborted (core dumped)

If the reference debugging is not enabled, the superfluous DECREFs might
cause the dict objects to be silently released while they are still in
use. This may trigger various other assertions or just cause perf
crashes and/or weird and unexpected data changes in the stored Python
objects.
