x86/vdso: Fix vDSO syscall fallback asm constraint regression

2018-10-13T07:33:13+00:00

commit 02e425668f5c9deb42787d10001a3b605993ad15 upstream.

When I added the missing memory outputs, I failed to update the
index of the first argument (ebx) on 32-bit builds, which broke the
fallbacks.  Somehow I must have screwed up my testing or gotten
lucky.

Add another test to cover gettimeofday() as well.

selftests/x86: Add clock_gettime() tests to test_vdso

2018-10-13T07:33:12+00:00

commit 7c03e7035ac1cf2a6165754e4f3a49c2f1977838 upstream.

Now that the vDSO implementation of clock_gettime() is getting
reworked, add a selftest for it.  This tests that its output is
consistent with the syscall version.

This is marked for stable to serve as a test for commit

tools: hv: fcopy: set 'error' in case an unknown operation was requested

2018-10-10T06:56:08+00:00

commit c2d68afba86d1ff01e7300c68bc16a9234dcd8e9 upstream.

'error' variable is left uninitialized in case we see an unknown operation.
As we don't immediately return and proceed to pwrite() we need to set it
to something, HV_E_FAIL sounds good enough.

perf annotate: Fix parsing aarch64 branch instructions after objdump update

2018-10-10T06:55:59+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4e67b2a5df5d3f341776d12ee575e00ca3ef92de ]

Starting with binutils 2.28, aarch64 objdump adds comments to the
disassembly output to show the alternative names of a condition code
[1].

It is assumed that commas in objdump comments could occur in other
arches now or in the future, so this fix is arch-independent.

The fix could have been done with arm64 specific jump__parse and
jump__scnprintf functions, but the jump__scnprintf instruction would
have to have its comment character be a literal, since the scnprintf
functions cannot receive a struct arch easily.

This inconvenience also applies to the generic jump__scnprintf, which is
why we add a raw_comment pointer to struct ins_operands, so the __parse
function assigns it to be re-used by its corresponding __scnprintf
function.

Example differences in 'perf annotate --stdio2' output on an aarch64
perf.data file:

BEFORE: → b.cs   ffff200008133d1c   // b.hs, dffff7ecc47b
AFTER : ↓ b.cs   18c

BEFORE: → b.cc   ffff200008d8d9cc   // b.lo, b.ul, dffff727295b
AFTER : ↓ b.cc   31c

The branch target labels 18c and 31c also now appear in the output:

BEFORE:        add    x26, x29, #0x80
AFTER : 18c:   add    x26, x29, #0x80

BEFORE:        add    x21, x21, #0x8
AFTER : 31c:   add    x21, x21, #0x8

The Fixes: tag below is added so stable branches will get the update; it
doesn't necessarily mean that commit was broken at the time, rather it
didn't withstand the aarch64 objdump update.

Tested no difference in output for sample x86_64, power arch perf.data files.

perf util: Fix bad memory access in trace info.

[ Upstream commit a72f64261359b7451f8478f2a2bf357b4e6c757f ]

In the write to the output_fd in the error condition of
record_saved_cmdline(), we are writing 8 bytes from a memory location on
the stack that contains a primitive that is only 4 bytes in size.
Change the primitive to 8 bytes in size to match the size of the write
in order to avoid reading unknown memory from the stack.

perf annotate: Properly interpret indirect call

2018-10-10T06:55:59+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1dc27f63303db58ce1b1a6932d1825305f86d574 ]

The patch changes the parsing of:

	callq  *0x8(%rbx)

from:

  0.26 │     → callq  *8

to:

  0.26 │     → callq  *0x8(%rbx)

in this case an address is followed by a register, thus one can't parse
only the address.

Committer testing:

1) run 'perf record sleep 10'
2) before applying the patch, run:

     perf annotate --stdio2 > /tmp/before

3) after applying the patch, run:

     perf annotate --stdio2 > /tmp/after

4) diff /tmp/before /tmp/after:

tools/vm/slabinfo.c: fix sign-compare warning

[ Upstream commit 904506562e0856f2535d876407d087c9459d345b ]

Currently we get the following compiler warning:

    slabinfo.c:854:22: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
       if (s->object_size < min_objsize)
                          ^

due to the mismatch of signed/unsigned comparison.  ->object_size and
->slab_size are never expected to be negative, so let's define them as
unsigned int.
