[ Upstream commit ab4200c17ba6fe71d2da64317aae8a8aa684624c ]

Fix die_entrypc() to return error correctly if the DIE has no
DW_AT_ranges attribute. Since dwarf_ranges() will treat the case as an
empty ranges and return 0, we have to check it by ourselves.

<title>perf stat: Use proper cpu for shadow stats</title>

[ Upstream commit c0ee1d5ae8c8650031badcfca6483a28c0f94f38 ]

Currently perf stat shows some metrics (like IPC) for defined events.
But when no aggregation mode is used (-A option), it shows incorrect
values since it used a value from a different cpu.

Before:

  $ perf stat -aA -e cycles,instructions sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

  CPU0      116,057,380      cycles
  CPU1       86,084,722      cycles
  CPU2       99,423,125      cycles
  CPU3       98,272,994      cycles
  CPU0       53,369,217      instructions      #    0.46  insn per cycle
  CPU1       33,378,058      instructions      #    0.29  insn per cycle
  CPU2       58,150,086      instructions      #    0.50  insn per cycle
  CPU3       40,029,703      instructions      #    0.34  insn per cycle

       1.001816971 seconds time elapsed

So the IPC for CPU1 should be 0.38 (= 33,378,058 / 86,084,722)
but it was 0.29 (= 33,378,058 / 116,057,380) and so on.

After:

  $ perf stat -aA -e cycles,instructions sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

  CPU0      109,621,384      cycles
  CPU1      159,026,454      cycles
  CPU2       99,460,366      cycles
  CPU3      124,144,142      cycles
  CPU0       44,396,706      instructions      #    0.41  insn per cycle
  CPU1      120,195,425      instructions      #    0.76  insn per cycle
  CPU2       44,763,978      instructions      #    0.45  insn per cycle
  CPU3       69,049,079      instructions      #    0.56  insn per cycle

       1.001910444 seconds time elapsed

<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".

commit 89a83a0c69c81a25ce91002b90ca27ed86132a0a upstream.

Add a test modelled on the RFI flush test which counts the number
of L1D misses doing a simple syscall with the entry flush on and off.

For simplicity of backporting, this test duplicates a lot of code from
the upstream rfi_flush. This is cleaned up upstream, but we don't clean
it up here because it would involve bringing in even more commits.

commit fcb48454c23c5679d1a2e252f127642e91b05cbe upstream.

We are about to add an entry flush. The rfi (exit) flush test measures
the number of L1D flushes over a syscall with the RFI flush enabled and
disabled. But if the entry flush is also enabled, the effect of enabling
and disabling the RFI flush is masked.

If there is a debugfs entry for the entry flush, disable it during the RFI
flush and restore it later.

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.

<title>bpf: Zero-fill re-used per-cpu map element</title>

[ 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.
