Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 - Introduce 'perf inject --aslr' to remap ASLR-randomized addresses in
   perf.data files, enabling reproducible analysis across runs with
   different address space layouts

 - Refactor evsel out of sample processing paths: store evsel in struct
   perf_sample and remove the redundant evsel parameter from tool APIs,
   tracepoint handlers, hist entry iterators, and db-export, simplifying
   the entire tool callback chain

 - Switch architecture detection from string-based perf_env__arch()
   comparisons to the numeric ELF e_machine field across the codebase
   (capstone, print_insn, c2c, lock-contention, sort, sample-raw,
   machine, header), making cross-analysis more robust

 - Overhaul ARM CoreSight ETM tests: add deterministic and named_threads
   workloads, speed up basic and disassembly tests, add process
   attribution and concurrent threads tests, remove unused workloads and
   duplicate tests, queue context packets for the frontend decoder

 - Add ARM SPE IMPDEF event decoding for Arm Neoverse N1, store MIDR in
   arm_spe_pkt for per-CPU event mapping, handle missing CPU IDs
   gracefully

 - Refactor libunwind support: remove the libunwind-local backend, make
   register reading cross-platform, add RISC-V libunwind support, allow
   dynamic selection between libdw and libunwind unwinding at runtime

 - Extensive hardening of perf.data parsing against crafted files: add
   bounds checks and byte-swap validation for session records, feature
   sections, header attributes, BPF metadata, auxtrace errors,
   compressed events, CPU maps, build ID notes, and ELF program headers.
   Add minimum event size validation and file offset diagnostics

 - Fix libdw API contract violations across dwarf-aux, libdw,
   probe-finder, annotate-data, and debuginfo subsystems. Fix callchain
   parent update in ORDER_CALLER mode, support DWARF line 0 in inline
   lists, handle multiple address spaces in callchains

 - Fix numerous 'perf sched' bugs: thread reference leaks, memory leaks,
   heap overflows with cross-machine recordings, NULL dereferences,
   replace BUG_ON assertions with graceful error handling, bounds-check
   CPU indices, fix SIGCHLD vs pause() races in sched stats

 - Overhaul the build system: move BPF skeleton generation out of
   Makefile.perf into bpf_skel.mak, decouple pmu-events from the prepare
   target, make beauty generated C code standalone .o files, compile BPF
   skeletons with -mcpu=v3, fix continuous rebuilds, various cleanups

 - Add 'perf test' JUnit XML reporting with -j/--junit option, split
   monolithic test suites into sub-tests, add summary reporting,
   refactor parallel poll loop, fix test failures on musl-based systems

 - Fix 'perf c2c' memory leaks in hist entry and format list handling,
   use-after-free in error paths, bounds-check CPU and node IDs

 - Fix 'perf bpf' metadata leaks on duplicate insert and alloc failure,
   bounds-check array offsets, validate event sizes and func_info
   fields, add NULL checks

 - Fix hwmon PMU: off-by-one null termination on sysfs reads, strlcpy
   buffer overflow in parse_hwmon_filename(), fd 0 check, empty label
   reads, scnprintf usage

 - Fix symbols subsystem: bounds-check ELF and sysfs build ID note
   iteration, validate p_filesz, fix 32-bit ELF bswap error, fix signed
   overflow in size checks, bounds-check .gnu_debuglink section

 - Fix tools lib api: null termination in filename__read_int/ull(),
   uninitialized stack data in filename__write_int(), snprintf
   truncation in mount_overload()

 - Replace libbabeltrace with babeltrace2-ctf-writer for CTF conversion
   in 'perf data'

 - Add RISC-V SDT argument parsing for static tracepoints

 - Add 'perf trace --show-cpu' option to display CPU id

 - Add 'perf bench sched pipe --write-size' option

 - Add a perf-specific .clang-format that overrides some kernel style
   behaviors

 - Update Intel vendor events for Alder Lake, Arrow Lake, Clearwater
   Forest, Emerald Rapids, Granite Rapids, Grand Ridge, Lunar Lake,
   Meteor Lake, Panther Lake, Sapphire Rapids, Sierra Forest

 - Add IOMMU metrics for AMD and Intel

 - Fix AMD event: switch l2_itlb_misses to
   bp_l1_tlb_miss_l2_tlb_miss.all

 - Add AMD IBS improvements: decode Streaming-store and Remote-Socket
   flags, suppress bogus fields on Zen4+, skip privilege test on Zen6+

 - Fix 'perf lock contention' SIGCHLD vs pause() race, allow 'mmap_lock'
   in -L filter, enable end-timestamp for cgroup aggregation, fix
   non-atomic data updates

 - Fix 'perf stat' false NMI watchdog warning in aggregation modes,
   bounds-check CPU index in topology callbacks, add aggr_nr metric
   parser support for uncore scaling

 - Fix 'perf timechart' memory leaks, CPU bounds checking,
   use-after-free on corrupted callchains

   sample size with branch stacks

 - Fix DSO heap overflow on decompressed paths, uninitialized pathname
   on fallback, set proper error codes

 - Fix various snprintf/scnprintf usages to prevent buffer overflows and
   truncation across the codebase

 - Fix off-by-one stack buffer overflow in kallsyms__parse()

 - Fix 'perf kwork' memory management, address sanitizer issues, bounds
   check work-&gt;cpu

Pull vfs casefolding updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This exposes the case folding behavior of local filesystems so that
  file servers - nfsd, ksmbd, and user space file servers - can report
  the actual behavior to clients instead of guessing.

  Filesystems report case-insensitive and case-nonpreserving behavior
  via new file_kattr flags in their fileattr_get implementations. fat,
  exfat, ntfs3, hfs, hfsplus, xfs, cifs, nfs, vboxsf, and isofs are
  wired up. Local filesystems that are not explicitly handled default to
  the usual POSIX behavior of case-sensitive and case-preserving.

  nfsd uses this to report case folding via NFSv3 PATHCONF and to
  implement the NFSv4 FATTR4_CASE_INSENSITIVE and FATTR4_CASE_PRESERVING
  attributes - both have been part of the NFS protocols for decades to
  support clients on non-POSIX systems - and ksmbd reports it via
  FS_ATTRIBUTE_INFORMATION. Exposing the information through the
  fileattr uapi covers user space file servers.

  The immediate motivation is interoperability: Windows NFS clients
  hard-require servers to report case-insensitivity for Win32
  applications to work correctly, and a client that knows the server is
  case-insensitive can avoid issuing multiple LOOKUP/READDIR requests
  searching for case variants.

  The Linux NFS client already grew support for case-insensitive shares
  years ago in support of the Hammerspace NFS server - negative dentry
  caching must be disabled (a lookup for "FILE.TXT" failing must not
  cache a negative entry when "file.txt" exists) and directory change
  invalidation must drop cached case-folded name variants. Such servers
  often operate in multi-protocol environments where a single file
  service instance caters to both NFS and SMB clients, and nfsd needs to
  report case folding properly to participate as a first-class citizen
  there.

  A follow-up series brings fixes for the initial work: the nfsd
  case-info probe now uses kernel credentials, maps -ESTALE to
  NFS3ERR_STALE, and has its cost capped across READDIR entries; the nfs
  client avoids transiently zeroed case capability bits during the probe
  and skips the pathconf probe when neither field is consumed; the
  FS_CASEFOLD_FL semantics are clarified in the UAPI header; and the
  tools UAPI headers are synced"

<title>perf env: Refactor perf_env__arch_strerrno</title>

<id>13d5660026b5415caea341380d68bc75960ba502</id>
<content type='text'>
The previous approach maps an architecture string to a function
pointer to a function that takes an int errno value and returns a
string. The new approach takes an e_machine and an errno value and
returns a string.

As the only call site is in builtin-trace.c, the e_machine is already
present and potentially more specific than the perf_env arch string
that is a single global value.

Since the errno-to-name mapping is now generated statically and no
longer depends on libtraceevent, we can remove the HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT
guards entirely, making perf_env__arch_strerrno unconditionally
available.

The major complication in this approach is having the shell script
that generates the C code map a linux directory name to the matching
ELF machine constants. To ensure compatibility with older hosts that
have older glibc versions, output fallback definitions for newer ELF
machine constants (EM_AARCH64, EM_CSKY, EM_LOONGARCH) if they are not
defined in the system &lt;elf.h&gt;.

<title>perf tools: Bounds check perf_event_attr fields against attr.size before printing</title>

perf_event_attr__fprintf() accessed all struct fields unconditionally,
but attrs from older perf.data files or BPF-captured syscall payloads
may have a smaller size than the current struct.  Fields beyond the
recorded size contain uninitialized or zero-filled data.

Add size-guarded macros (PRINT_ATTRn, PRINT_ATTRn_bf) that compare
each field's offset against attr-&gt;size before accessing it.

Guard the bitfield block (disabled, inherit, ... defer_output) with
attr_size &gt;= 48.  These bitfields share a single __u64 at offset 40,
which is within PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER0 for validated perf.data attrs,
but BPF-captured attrs from perf trace can have a smaller size when
the tracee passes a minimal struct to sys_perf_event_open.

Also fix the BPF trace path: when perf trace intercepts
sys_perf_event_open via BPF, the program copies PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER0
bytes when the tracee passes size=0, but leaves the size field as 0.
Set attr-&gt;size to PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER0 in the augmented syscall
handler so the bounds checks match the actual copied size.

The only user of msg-&gt;msg_iocb was AF_ALG, but that's deprecated.
It can be removed entirely at the cost of only supporting synchronous
operations.  This doesn't break userspace, which will silently block
(for a bounded amount of time) in io_submit instead of operating
asynchronously.

This also makes struct msghdr smaller, helping every other caller of
sendmsg().
