[ Upstream commit 2eb5dd418034ecea2f7031e3d33f2991a878b148 ]

When using 'perf record's option '-I' or '--user-regs=' along with
argument '?' to list available register names, memory of variable 'os'
allocated by strdup() needs to be released before __parse_regs()
returns, otherwise memory leak will occur.

commit 168200b6d6ea0cb5765943ec5da5b8149701f36a upstream.

The variable 'traceid_list' is defined in the header file cs-etm.h,
if multiple C files include cs-etm.h the compiler might complaint for
multiple definition of 'traceid_list'.

To fix multiple definition error, move the definition of 'traceid_list'
into cs-etm.c.

commit 95c6fe970a0160cb770c5dce9f80311b42d030c0 upstream.

If packet processing wants to know the packet is bound with which ETM
version, it needs to access metadata to decide that based on metadata
magic number; but we cannot simply to use CPU logic ID number as index
to access metadata sequential array, especially when system have
hotplugged off CPUs, the metadata array are only allocated for online
CPUs but not offline CPUs, so the CPU logic number doesn't match with
its index in the array.

This patch is to change tuple from traceID-CPU# to traceID-metadata,
thus it can use the tuple to retrieve metadata pointer according to
traceID.

For safe accessing metadata fields, this patch provides helper function
cs_etm__get_cpu() which is used to return CPU number according to
traceID; cs_etm_decoder__buffer_packet() is the first consumer for this
helper function.

[ Upstream commit 766e62b7fcd2cf1d43e6594ba37c659dc48f7ddb ]

When setting the ethtool feature flag fails (as expected for the test), the
kernel now tracks that the feature was requested to be 'off' and refuses to
subsequently disable it again. So reset it back to 'on' so a subsequent
disable (that's not supposed to fail) can succeed.

commit 8cd6bc0359deebd8500e6de95899a8a78d3ec4ba upstream.

If the size of the error log is too big to send via email, and the sending
fails, it wont email any result. This can be confusing for the user who is
waiting for an email on the completion of the tests.

If it fails to send email, then try again without the log file stating that
it failed to send an email. Obviously this will not be of use if the sending
of email failed for some other reasons, but it will at least give the user
some information when it fails for the most common reason.

commit 4e9a5ae8df5b3365183150f6df49e49dece80d8c upstream.

Since insn.prefixes.nbytes can be bigger than the size of
insn.prefixes.bytes[] when a prefix is repeated, the proper check must
be

  insn.prefixes.bytes[i] != 0 and i &lt; 4

instead of using insn.prefixes.nbytes.

Introduce a for_each_insn_prefix() macro for this purpose. Debugged by
Kees Cook &lt;keescook@chromium.org&gt;.

commit e9a6882f267a8105461066e3ea6b4b6b9be1b807 upstream.

Check for ref_reloc_sym before using it instead of checking
symbol_conf.kptr_restrict and relying solely on that check.

<title>perf lock: Don't free "lock_seq_stat" if read_count isn't zero</title>

[ Upstream commit b0e5a05cc9e37763c7f19366d94b1a6160c755bc ]

When execute command "perf lock report", it hits failure and outputs log
as follows:

  perf: builtin-lock.c:623: report_lock_release_event: Assertion `!(seq-&gt;read_count &lt; 0)' failed.
  Aborted

This is an imbalance issue.  The locking sequence structure
"lock_seq_stat" contains the reader counter and it is used to check if
the locking sequence is balance or not between acquiring and releasing.

If the tool wrongly frees "lock_seq_stat" when "read_count" isn't zero,
the "read_count" will be reset to zero when allocate a new structure at
the next time; thus it causes the wrong counting for reader and finally
results in imbalance issue.

To fix this issue, if detects "read_count" is not zero (means still have
read user in the locking sequence), goto the "end" tag to skip freeing
structure "lock_seq_stat".

[ Upstream commit df11f7dd5834146defa448acba097e8d7703cc42 ]

Fix the layout of 'struct desc64' to match the layout described in the
SDM Vol 3, Chapter 3 "Protected-Mode Memory Management", section 3.4.5
"Segment Descriptors", Figure 3-8 "Segment Descriptor".  The test added
later in this series relies on this and crashes if this layout is not
correct.
