[ Upstream commit 137f01b3529d292a68d22e9681e2f903c768f790 ]

MSR_KNL_CORE_C6_RESIDENCY should be evaluated only if
1. this is KNL platform
AND
2. need to get C6 residency or need to calculate C1 residency

Fix the broken logic introduced by commit 1e9042b9c8d4 ("tools/power

[ Upstream commit 2d3dff577dd0ea8fe9637a13822f7603c4a881c8 ]

The iio_generic_buffer can return garbage values when the total size of
scan data is not a multiple of the largest element in the scan. This can be
demonstrated by reading a scan, consisting, for example of one 4-byte and
one 2-byte element, where the 4-byte element is first in the buffer.

The IIO generic buffer code does not take into account the last two
padding bytes that are needed to ensure that the 4-byte data for next
scan is correctly aligned.

Add the padding bytes required to align the next sample with the scan size.

[ Upstream commit 49d736313d0975ddeb156f4f59801da833f78b30 ]

In function size_from_channelarray(), the return value 'bytes' is defined
as int type. However, the calcution of 'bytes' in this function is designed
to use the unsigned int type. So it is necessary to change 'bytes' type to
unsigned int to avoid integer overflow.

The size_from_channelarray() is called in main() function, its return value
is directly multipled by 'buf_len' and then used as the malloc() parameter.
The 'buf_len' is completely controllable by user, thus a multiplication
overflow may occur here. This could allocate an unexpected small area.

If name_show() is non unique, this test will try to install a kprobe on this

On kernel where name_show() is not unique, this test is skipped.

Commit 151e887d8ff9 ("veth: Fixing transmit return status for dropped
packets") exposed the fact that bpf_clone_redirect is capable of
returning raw NET_XMIT_XXX return codes.

This is in the conflict with its UAPI doc which says the following:
"0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure."

Update the UAPI to reflect the fact that bpf_clone_redirect can
return positive error numbers, but don't explicitly define
their meaning.
