[ Upstream commit ceb75476db1617a88cc29b09839acacb69aa076e ]

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential
NULL pointer dereference check.

  tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c:641
  hist_browser__run() error: we previously assumed 'hbt' could be
  null (see line 625)

  tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c:3088
  perf_evsel__hists_browse() error: we previously assumed
  'browser-&gt;he_selection' could be null (see line 2902)

  tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c:3272
  perf_evsel_menu__run() error: we previously assumed 'hbt' could be
  null (see line 3260)

This patch firstly validating the pointers before access them, so can
fix potential NULL pointer dereference.

[ Upstream commit 600c787dbf6521d8d07ee717ab7606d5070103ea ]

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential
dereferencing freed memory check.

  tools/perf/util/annotate.c:1125
  disasm_line__parse() error: dereferencing freed memory 'namep'

  tools/perf/util/annotate.c
  1100 static int disasm_line__parse(char *line, const char **namep, char **rawp)
  1101 {
  1102         char tmp, *name = ltrim(line);

  [...]

  1114         *namep = strdup(name);
  1115
  1116         if (*namep == NULL)
  1117                 goto out_free_name;

  [...]

  1124 out_free_name:
  1125         free((void *)namep);
                            ^^^^^
  1126         *namep = NULL;
               ^^^^^^
  1127         return -1;
  1128 }

If strdup() fails to allocate memory space for *namep, we don't need to
free memory with pointer 'namep', which is resident in data structure
disasm_line::ins::name; and *namep is NULL pointer for this failure, so
it's pointless to assign NULL to *namep again.

Committer note:

Freeing namep, which is the address of the first entry of the 'struct
ins' that is the first member of struct disasm_line would in fact free
that disasm_line instance, if it was allocated via malloc/calloc, which,
later, would a dereference of freed memory.

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential
NULL pointer dereference check.

  tools/perf/util/session.c:1252
  dump_read() error: we previously assumed 'evsel' could be null
  (see line 1249)

  tools/perf/util/session.c
  1240 static void dump_read(struct perf_evsel *evsel, union perf_event *event)
  1241 {
  1242         struct read_event *read_event = &amp;event-&gt;read;
  1243         u64 read_format;
  1244
  1245         if (!dump_trace)
  1246                 return;
  1247
  1248         printf(": %d %d %s %" PRIu64 "\n", event-&gt;read.pid, event-&gt;read.tid,
  1249                evsel ? perf_evsel__name(evsel) : "FAIL",
  1250                event-&gt;read.value);
  1251
  1252         read_format = evsel-&gt;attr.read_format;
                             ^^^^^^^

'evsel' could be NULL pointer, for this case this patch directly bails
out without dumping read_event.

[ Upstream commit 111442cfc8abdeaa7ec1407f07ef7b3e5f76654e ]

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential NULL
pointer dereference check.

  tools/perf/builtin-top.c:109
  perf_top__parse_source() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'he'
  (see line 103)

  tools/perf/builtin-top.c:233

  tools/perf/builtin-top.c
  101 static int perf_top__parse_source(struct perf_top *top, struct hist_entry *he)
  102 {
  103         struct perf_evsel *evsel = hists_to_evsel(he-&gt;hists);
                                                        ^^^^

  108
  109         if (!he || !he-&gt;ms.sym)
  110                 return -1;

This patch moves the values assignment after validating pointer 'he'.

[ Upstream commit c74b05030edb3b52f4208d8415b8c933bc509a29 ]

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the use-after-freed
pointer.

  tools/perf/builtin-stat.c:1353
  add_default_attributes() warn: passing freed memory 'str'.

The pointer 'str' has been freed but later it is still passed into the
function parse_events_print_error().  This patch fixes this
use-after-freed issue.

[ Upstream commit 4e4cf62b37da5ff45c904a3acf242ab29ed5881d ]

Running the 'perf test' command after building perf with a memory
sanitizer causes a warning that says:

  WARNING: MemorySanitizer: use-of-uninitialized-value... in mmap-thread-lookup.c

Initializing the go variable to 0 silences this harmless warning.

Committer warning:

This was harmless, just a simple test writing whatever was at that
sizeof(int) memory area just to signal another thread blocked reading
that file created with pipe(). Initialize it tho so that we don't get
this warning.

<title>iio: iio-utils: Fix possible incorrect mask calculation</title>

[ Upstream commit 208a68c8393d6041a90862992222f3d7943d44d6 ]

On some machines, iio-sensor-proxy was returning all 0's for IIO sensor
values. It turns out that the bits_used for this sensor is 32, which makes
the mask calculation:

*mask = (1 &lt;&lt; 32) - 1;

If the compiler interprets the 1 literals as 32-bit ints, it generates
undefined behavior depending on compiler version and optimization level.
On my system, it optimizes out the shift, so the mask value becomes

*mask = (1) - 1;

With a mask value of 0, iio-sensor-proxy will always return 0 for every axis.

Avoid incorrect 0 values caused by compiler optimization.

'probe libc's inet_pton &amp; backtrace it with ping' testcase sometimes
fails on powerpc because distro ping binary does not have symbol
information and thus it prints "[unknown]" function name in the
backtrace.

Accept "[unknown]" as valid function name for powerpc as well.

[ Upstream commit aa52bcbe0e72fac36b1862db08b9c09c4caefae3 ]

Michael reported crash with by bpf program in json mode on powerpc:

  # bpftool prog -p dump jited id 14
  [{
        "name": "0xd00000000a9aa760",
        "insns": [{
                "pc": "0x0",
                "operation": "nop",
                "operands": [null
                ]
            },{
                "pc": "0x4",
                "operation": "nop",
                "operands": [null
                ]
            },{
                "pc": "0x8",
                "operation": "mflr",
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The code is assuming char pointers in format, which is not always
true at least for powerpc. Fixing this by dumping the whole string
into buffer based on its format.

Please note that libopcodes code does not check return values from
fprintf callback, but as per Jakub suggestion returning -1 on allocation
failure so we do the best effort to propagate the error.

Fixes: 107f041212c1 ("tools: bpftool: add JSON output for `bpftool prog dump jited *` command")

[ Upstream commit aa52bcbe0e72fac36b1862db08b9c09c4caefae3 ]

Michael reported crash with by bpf program in json mode on powerpc:

  # bpftool prog -p dump jited id 14
  [{
        "name": "0xd00000000a9aa760",
        "insns": [{
                "pc": "0x0",
                "operation": "nop",
                "operands": [null
                ]
            },{
                "pc": "0x4",
                "operation": "nop",
                "operands": [null
                ]
            },{
                "pc": "0x8",
                "operation": "mflr",
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The code is assuming char pointers in format, which is not always
true at least for powerpc. Fixing this by dumping the whole string
into buffer based on its format.

Please note that libopcodes code does not check return values from
fprintf callback, but as per Jakub suggestion returning -1 on allocation
failure so we do the best effort to propagate the error.

[ Upstream commit 11aca65ec4db09527d3e9b6b41a0615b7da4386b ]

Selftests are reporting this failure in test_lwt_seg6local.sh:

+ ip netns exec ns2 ip -6 route add fb00::6 encap bpf in obj test_lwt_seg6local.o sec encap_srh dev veth2
Error fetching program/map!
Failed to parse eBPF program: Operation not permitted

The problem is __attribute__((always_inline)) alone is not enough to prevent
clang from inserting those functions in .text. In that case, .text is not
marked as relocateable.

See the output of objdump -h test_lwt_seg6local.o:

Idx Name          Size      VMA               LMA               File off  Algn
  0 .text         00003530  0000000000000000  0000000000000000  00000040  2**3
                  CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE

This causes the iproute bpf loader to fail in bpf_fetch_prog_sec:
bpf_has_call_data returns true but bpf_fetch_prog_relo fails as there's no
relocateable .text section in the file.

To fix this, convert to 'static __always_inline'.

v2: Use 'static __always_inline' instead of 'static inline
    __attribute__((always_inline))'
