[ Upstream commit b50d691e50e600fab82b423be871860537d75dc9 ]

Parametrized events are not only a powerpc domain. They occur on other
platforms too (e.g. aarch64). They should be ignored in this testcase,
since proper setup of the parameters is out of scope of this script.

Let's not filter them out by PMU name, but rather based on the fact that
they expect a parameter.

[ Upstream commit 188ac720d364035008a54d249cf47b4cc100f819 ]

When perf uses quiet mode, perf_quiet_option() sets the 'debug_peo_args'
variable to -1, and display_attr() incorrectly determines the value of
'debug_peo_args'.  As a result, unexpected information is displayed.

Before:

  # perf record --quiet -- ls &gt; /dev/null

[ Upstream commit ab0350c743d5c93fd88742f02b3dff12168ab435 ]

redefine them as this can result in a build error.

Fixes the following errors:

<title>libbpf: Avoid enum forward-declarations in public API in C++ mode</title>

[ Upstream commit b42693415b86f608049cf1b4870adc1dc65e58b0 ]

C++ enum forward declarations are fundamentally not compatible with pure
C enum definitions, and so libbpf's use of `enum bpf_stats_type;`
forward declaration in libbpf/bpf.h public API header is causing C++
compilation issues.

More details can be found in [0], but it comes down to C++ supporting
enum forward declaration only with explicitly specified backing type:

  enum bpf_stats_type: int;

In C (and I believe it's a GCC extension also), such forward declaration
is simply:

  enum bpf_stats_type;

Further, in Linux UAPI this enum is defined in pure C way:

enum bpf_stats_type { BPF_STATS_RUN_TIME = 0; }

And even though in both cases backing type is int, which can be
confirmed by looking at DWARF information, for C++ compiler actual enum
definition and forward declaration are incompatible.

To eliminate this problem, for C++ mode define input argument as int,
which makes enum unnecessary in libbpf public header. This solves the
issue and as demonstrated by next patch doesn't cause any unwanted
compiler warnings, at least with default warnings setting.

$number + &gt; bash means redirect FD $number, e.g. commonly
used 2&gt; redirects stderr (fd 2). The test uses 8192&gt; to
write the number 8192 to a file, this results in:

  ./devlink.sh: line 499: 8192: Bad file descriptor

Oddly the test also papers over this issue by checking
for failure (expecting an error rather than success)
so it passes, anyway.

[ Upstream commit a8dfde09c90109e3a98af54847e91bde7dc2d5c2 ]

BPF selftests require CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION to work. However,
CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is no longer 'y' by default after recent
changes. As a result, we are seeing errors like the following from BPF CI:

   bpf_testmod_test_read() is not modifiable
   __x64_sys_setdomainname is not sleepable
   __x64_sys_getpgid is not sleepable

Fix this by explicitly selecting CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION in the
selftest config.

<title>perf stat: Do not delay the workload with --delay</title>

[ Upstream commit c587e77e100fa40eb6af10e00497c67acf493f33 ]

The -D/--delay option is to delay the measure after the program starts.
But the current code goes to sleep before starting the program so the
program is delayed too.  This is not the intention, let's fix it.

Before:

  $ time sudo ./perf stat -a -e cycles -D 3000 sleep 4
  Events disabled
  Events enabled

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

       4,326,949,337      cycles

         4.007494118 seconds time elapsed

  real	0m7.474s
  user	0m0.356s
  sys	0m0.120s

It ran the workload for 4 seconds and gave the 3 second delay.  So it
should skip the first 3 second and measure the last 1 second only.  But
as you can see, it delays 3 seconds and ran the workload after that for
4 seconds.  So the total time (real) was 7 seconds.

After:

  $ time sudo ./perf stat -a -e cycles -D 3000 sleep 4
  Events disabled
  Events enabled

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

       1,063,551,013      cycles

         1.002769510 seconds time elapsed

  real	0m4.484s
  user	0m0.385s
  sys	0m0.086s

The bug was introduced when it changed enablement of system-wide events
with a command line workload.  But it should've considered the initial
delay case.  The code was reworked since then (in bb8bc52e7578) so I'm
afraid it won't be applied cleanly.

[ Upstream commit 167b266bf66c5b93171011ef9d1f09b070c2c537 ]

In BTF, tracepoint definitions have the "btf_trace_" prefix.  The
off-cpu profiler needs to check the signature of the sched_switch event
using that definition.  But there's a typo (s/bpf/btf/) so it failed
always.

[ Upstream commit 6f520ce17920b3cdfbd2479b3ccf27f9706219d0 ]

perf doesn't provide proper symbol information for specially crafted
.debug files.

Sometimes .debug file may not have similar program header as runtime
ELF file. For example if we generate .debug file using objcopy
--only-keep-debug resulting file will not contain .text, .data and
other runtime sections. That means corresponding program headers will
have zero FileSiz and modified Offset.

Example: program header of text section of libxxx.so:

Type           Offset             VirtAddr           PhysAddr
               FileSiz            MemSiz              Flags  Align
LOAD        0x00000000003d3000 0x00000000003d3000 0x00000000003d3000
            0x000000000055ae80 0x000000000055ae80  R E    0x1000

Same program header after executing:
objcopy --only-keep-debug libxxx.so libxxx.so.debug

LOAD        0x0000000000001000 0x00000000003d3000 0x00000000003d3000
            0x0000000000000000 0x000000000055ae80  R E    0x1000

Offset and FileSiz have been changed.

Following formula will not provide correct value, if program header
taken from .debug file (syms_ss):

    sym.st_value -= phdr.p_vaddr - phdr.p_offset;

Correct program header information is located inside runtime ELF
file (runtime_ss).
