commit d0e7b0c71fbb653de90a7163ef46912a96f0bdaf upstream.

To avoid this:

  util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.c: In function 'python_start_script':
  util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.c:1595:2: error: 'visibility' attribute ignored [-Werror=attributes]
   1595 |  PyMODINIT_FUNC (*initfunc)(void);
        |  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That started breaking when building with PYTHON=python3 and these gcc
versions (I haven't checked with the clang ones, maybe it breaks there
as well):

  # export PERF_TARBALL=http://192.168.86.5/perf/perf-5.9.0.tar.xz
  # dm  fedora:33 fedora:rawhide
     1   107.80 fedora:33         : Ok   gcc (GCC) 10.2.1 20201005 (Red Hat 10.2.1-5), clang version 11.0.0 (Fedora 11.0.0-1.fc33)
     2    92.47 fedora:rawhide    : Ok   gcc (GCC) 10.2.1 20201016 (Red Hat 10.2.1-6), clang version 11.0.0 (Fedora 11.0.0-1.fc34)
  #

Avoid that by ditching that 'initfunc' function pointer with its:

    #define Py_EXPORTED_SYMBOL _attribute_ ((visibility ("default")))
    #define PyMODINIT_FUNC Py_EXPORTED_SYMBOL PyObject*

And just call PyImport_AppendInittab() at the end of the ifdef python3
block with the functions that were being attributed to that initfunc.

[ Upstream commit d3bec0138bfbe58606fc1d6f57a4cdc1a20218db ]

Zero-fill element values for all other cpus than current, just as
when not using prealloc. This is the only way the bpf program can
ensure known initial values for all cpus ('onallcpus' cannot be
set when coming from the bpf program).

The scenario is: bpf program inserts some elements in a per-cpu
map, then deletes some (or userspace does). When later adding
new elements using bpf_map_update_elem(), the bpf program can
only set the value of the new elements for the current cpu.
When prealloc is enabled, previously deleted elements are re-used.
Without the fix, values for other cpus remain whatever they were
when the re-used entry was previously freed.

A selftest is added to validate correct operation in above
scenario as well as in case of LRU per-cpu map element re-use.

[ Upstream commit e3e40312567087fbe6880f316cb2b0e1f3d8a82c ]

More recent libc implementations are now using openat/openat2 system
calls so also add do_sys_openat2 to the tracing so that the test
passes on these systems because do_sys_open may not be called.

Thanks to Masami Hiramatsu for the help on getting this fix to work
correctly.

<title>perf python scripting: Fix printable strings in python3 scripts</title>

<id>46881159583318cf84e9210d794ae820f7196dca</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 6fcd5ddc3b1467b3586972ef785d0d926ae4cdf4 upstream.

Hagen reported broken strings in python3 tracepoint scripts:

  make PYTHON=python3
  perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a -- sleep 5
  perf script --gen-script py
  perf script -s ./perf-script.py

  [..]
  sched__sched_switch      7 563231.759525792        0 swapper   prev_comm=bytearray(b'swapper/7\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00'), prev_pid=0, prev_prio=120, prev_state=, next_comm=bytearray(b'mutex-thread-co\x00'),

The problem is in the is_printable_array function that does not take the
zero byte into account and claim such string as not printable, so the
code will create byte array instead of string.

commit 6fcd5ddc3b1467b3586972ef785d0d926ae4cdf4 upstream.

Hagen reported broken strings in python3 tracepoint scripts:

  make PYTHON=python3
  perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a -- sleep 5
  perf script --gen-script py
  perf script -s ./perf-script.py

  [..]
  sched__sched_switch      7 563231.759525792        0 swapper   prev_comm=bytearray(b'swapper/7\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00'), prev_pid=0, prev_prio=120, prev_state=, next_comm=bytearray(b'mutex-thread-co\x00'),

The problem is in the is_printable_array function that does not take the
zero byte into account and claim such string as not printable, so the
code will create byte array instead of string.

<title>selftests/bpf: Define string const as global for test_sysctl_prog.c</title>

[ Upstream commit 6e057fc15a2da4ee03eb1fa6889cf687e690106e ]

When tweaking llvm optimizations, I found that selftest build failed
with the following error:
  libbpf: elf: skipping unrecognized data section(6) .rodata.str1.1
  libbpf: prog 'sysctl_tcp_mem': bad map relo against '.L__const.is_tcp_mem.tcp_mem_name'
          in section '.rodata.str1.1'
  Error: failed to open BPF object file: Relocation failed
  make: *** [/work/net-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_sysctl_prog.skel.h] Error 255
  make: *** Deleting file `/work/net-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_sysctl_prog.skel.h'

The local string constant "tcp_mem_name" is put into '.rodata.str1.1' section
which libbpf cannot handle. Using untweaked upstream llvm, "tcp_mem_name"
is completely inlined after loop unrolling.

Commit 7fb5eefd7639 ("selftests/bpf: Fix test_sysctl_loop{1, 2}
failure due to clang change") solved a similar problem by defining
the string const as a global. Let us do the same here
for test_sysctl_prog.c so it can weather future potential llvm changes.
