<content type='text'>
commit 3bad20d7d129c3b3063658a0f83974dfe6dac5c4 upstream.

Based on TMA_metrics-full.csv version 4.3 at 01.org:
    https://download.01.org/perfmon/
Events are updated to version 1.26:
    https://download.01.org/perfmon/SKX
Json files generated by:
    https://github.com/intel/event-converter-for-linux-perf

Fixes were made that allow the skx-metrics.json to successfully
generate, bringing back TopdownL1 metrics.

Tested:

90 skips due to a lack of floating point samples, which is
understandable.

<title>libbpf: Define BTF_KIND_* constants in btf.h to avoid compilation errors</title>

<content type='text'>
commit eaa266d83a3730a15de2ceebcc89e8f6290e8cf6 upstream.

The btf.h header included with libbpf contains inline helper functions to
check for various BTF kinds. These helpers directly reference the
BTF_KIND_* constants defined in the kernel header, and because the header
file is included in user applications, this happens in the user application
compile units.

This presents a problem if a user application is compiled on a system with
older kernel headers because the constants are not available. To avoid
this, add #defines of the constants directly in btf.h before using them.

Since the kernel header moved to an enum for BTF_KIND_*, the #defines can
shadow the enum values without any errors, so we only need #ifndef guards
for the constants that predates the conversion to enum. We group these so
there's only one guard for groups of values that were added together.

<title>af_unix: Support POLLPRI for OOB.</title>

commit d9a232d435dcc966738b0f414a86f7edf4f4c8c4 upstream.

The commit 314001f0bf92 ("af_unix: Add OOB support") introduced OOB for
AF_UNIX, but it lacks some changes for POLLPRI.  Let's add the missing
piece.

In the selftest, normal datagrams are sent followed by OOB data, so this
commit replaces `POLLIN | POLLPRI` with just `POLLPRI` in the first test
case.

[ Upstream commit c2eeac985657f61543e6c5a333b94f3bd18e6b9d ]

This patch corrects typos in error messages. I should be "evlist", not
"evsel" as the function that fails is perf_evlist__open().

[ Upstream commit b50d3b46f84282d795ae3076111acb75ae1031f3 ]

The purpose of the last test case is to test VXLAN encapsulation and
decapsulation when the underlay lookup takes place in a non-default VRF.
This is achieved by enslaving the physical device of the tunnel to a
VRF.

The binding of the VXLAN UDP socket to the VRF happens when the VXLAN
device itself is opened, not when its physical device is opened. This
was also mentioned in the cited commit ("tests that moving the underlay
from a VRF to another works when down/up the VXLAN interface"), but the
test did something else.

Fix it by reopening the VXLAN device instead of its physical device.

Before:

 # ./test_vxlan_under_vrf.sh
 Checking HV connectivity                                           [ OK ]
 Check VM connectivity through VXLAN (underlay in the default VRF)  [ OK ]
 Check VM connectivity through VXLAN (underlay in a VRF)            [FAIL]

After:

 # ./test_vxlan_under_vrf.sh
 Checking HV connectivity                                           [ OK ]
 Check VM connectivity through VXLAN (underlay in the default VRF)  [ OK ]
 Check VM connectivity through VXLAN (underlay in a VRF)            [ OK ]

<title>perf stat: Fix forked applications enablement of counters</title>

[ Upstream commit d0a0a511493d269514fcbd852481cdca32c95350 ]

I have run into the following issue:

 # perf stat -a -e new_pmu/INSTRUCTION_7/ --  mytest -c1 7

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                 0      new_pmu/INSTRUCTION_7/

       0.000366428 seconds time elapsed
 #

The new PMU for s390 counts the execution of certain CPU instructions.
The root cause is the extremely small run time of the mytest program. It
just executes some assembly instructions and then exits.

In above invocation the instruction is executed exactly one time (-c1
option). The PMU is expected to report this one time execution by a
counter value of one, but fails to do so in some cases, not all.

Debugging reveals the invocation of the child process is done
*before* the counter events are installed and enabled.

Tracing reveals that sometimes the child process starts and exits before
the event is installed on all CPUs. The more CPUs the machine has, the
more often this miscount happens.

Fix this by reversing the start of the work load after the events have
been installed on the specified CPUs. Now the comment also matches the
code.

Output after:

 # perf stat -a -e new_pmu/INSTRUCTION_7/ --  mytest -c1 7

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                 1      new_pmu/INSTRUCTION_7/

       0.000366428 seconds time elapsed
 #

Now the correct result is reported rock solid all the time regardless
how many CPUs are online.

Reviewers notes:

Jiri:

Right, without -a the event has enable_on_exec so the race does not
matter, but it's a problem for system wide with fork.

Namhyung:

Agreed. Also we may move the enable_counters() and the clock code out of
the if block to be shared with the else block.

<title>perf parse-events: Move slots only with topdown</title>

[ Upstream commit bc355822f0d9623b632069105d425c822d124cc8 ]

If slots isn't with a topdown event then moving it is unnecessary. For
example {instructions, slots} is re-ordered:

  $ perf stat -e '{instructions,slots}' -a sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

         936,600,825      slots
         144,440,968      instructions

         1.006061423 seconds time elapsed

Which can break tools expecting the command line order to match the
printed order. It is necessary to move the slots event first when it
appears with topdown events. Add extra checking so that the slots event
is only moved in the case of there being a topdown event like:

  $ perf stat -e '{instructions,slots,topdown-fe-bound}' -a sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

          2427568570      slots
           300927614      instructions
           551021649      topdown-fe-bound
