Avoid race between process wakeup and tpacket_v3 block timeout.

The test waits for cfg_timeout_msec for packets to arrive. Packets
arrive in tpacket_v3 rings, which pass packets ("frames") to the
process in batches ("blocks"). The sk waits for req3.tp_retire_blk_tov
msec to release a block.

Set the block timeout lower than the process waiting time, else
the process may find that no block has been released by the time it
scans the socket list. Convert to a ring of more than one, smaller,
blocks with shorter timeouts. Blocks must be page aligned, so &gt;= 64KB.

Perf test "build id cache operations" fails for PE executable.  Logs
below from powerpc system.  Same is observed on x86 as well.

  &lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;
  Adding 5a0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469 ./tests/shell/../pe-file.exe: Ok
  build id: 5a0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469
  link: /tmp/perf.debug.w0V/.build-id/5a/0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469
  file: /tmp/perf.debug.w0V/.build-id/5a/../../root/&lt;user&gt;/linux/tools/perf/tests/pe-file.exe/5a0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469/elf
  failed: file /tmp/perf.debug.w0V/.build-id/5a/../../root/&lt;user&gt;/linux/tools/perf/tests/pe-file.exe/5a0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469/elf does not exist
  test child finished with -1
  ---- end ----
  build id cache operations: FAILED!
  &lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;

The test tries to do:

  &lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;
  mkdir /tmp/perf.debug.TeY1
  perf --buildid-dir /tmp/perf.debug.TeY1 buildid-cache -v -a ./tests/shell/../pe-file.exe
  &lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;

The option "--buildid-dir" sets the build id cache directory as
/tmp/perf.debug.TeY1. The option given to buildid-cahe, ie "-a
./tests/shell/../pe-file.exe", is to add the pe-file.exe to the cache.

The testcase, sets buildid-dir and adds the file: pe-file.exe to build
id cache. To check if the command is run successfully, "check" function
looks for presence of the file in buildid cache directory. But the check
here expects the added file to be executable. Snippet below:

  &lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;
  if [ ! -x $file ]; then
  	echo "failed: file ${file} does not exist"
  	exit 1
  fi
  &lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;

The buildid test is done for sha1 binary, md5 binary and also for PE
file. The first two binaries are created at runtime by compiling with
"--build-id" option and hence the check for sha1/md5 test should use [ !
-x ]. But in case of PE file, the permission for this input file is
rw-r--r-- Hence the file added to build id cache has same permissoin

Original file:

  ls tests/pe-file.exe | xargs stat --printf "%n %A \n"
  tests/pe-file.exe -rw-r--r--

buildid cache file:

  ls /tmp/perf.debug.w0V/.build-id/5a/../../root/&lt;user&gt;/linux/tools/perf/tests/pe-file.exe/5a0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469/elf | xargs stat --printf "%n %A \n"
  /tmp/perf.debug.w0V/.build-id/5a/../../root/&lt;user&gt;/linux/tools/perf/tests/pe-file.exe/5a0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469/elf -rw-r--r--

Fix the test to match with the permission of original file in case of FE
file. ie if the "tests/pe-file.exe" file is not having exec permission,
just check for existence of the buildid file using [ ! -e &lt;file&gt; ]

The failing test is when trying to add pe-file.exe to build id cache.

'perf buildid-cache' can be used to add/remove/manage files from the
build-id cache. "-a" option is used to add a file to the build-id cache.

Simple command to do so for a PE exe file:

  # ls -ltr tests/pe-file.exe
  -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 75595 Jan 10 23:35 tests/pe-file.exe

  The file is in home directory.

  # mkdir  /tmp/perf.debug.TeY1
  # perf --buildid-dir /tmp/perf.debug.TeY1 buildid-cache -v -a tests/pe-file.exe

The above will create ".build-id" folder in build id directory, which is
/tmp/perf.debug.TeY1. Also adds file to this folder under build id.
Example:

  # ls -ltr /tmp/perf.debug.TeY1/.build-id/5a/0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469/
  total 76
  -rw-r--r--. 1 root root     0 Jan 11 00:38 probes
  -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 75595 Jan 11 00:38 elf

We can see in the results that file mode for original file and file in
build id directory is different. ie, build id file has executable
permission whereas original file doesn’t have.

The code path and function (build_id_cache__add  to add a file to the
cache is in "util/build-id.c". In build_id_cache__add() function, it
first attempts to link the original file to destination cache folder.

If linking the file fails (which can happen if the destination and
source is on a different mount points), it will copy the file to
destination.  Here copyfile() routine explicitly uses mode as "755" and
hence file in the destination will have executable permission.

Code snippet:

 if (link(realname, filename) &amp;&amp; errno != EEXIST &amp;&amp; copyfile(name, filename))

strace logs:

	172285 link("/home/&lt;user_name&gt;/linux/tools/perf/tests/pe-file.exe", "/tmp/perf.debug.TeY1/home/&lt;user_name&gt;/linux/tools/perf/tests/pe-file.exe/5a0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469/elf") = -1 EXDEV (Invalid cross-device link)
	172285 newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "tests/pe-file.exe", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=75595, ...}, 0) = 0
	172285 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/tmp/perf.debug.TeY1/home/&lt;user_name&gt;/linux/tools/perf/tests/pe-file.exe/5a0fd882b53084224ba47b624c55a469/.elf.KbAnsl", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0600) = 3
	172285 fchmod(3, 0755)                  = 0
	172285 openat(AT_FDCWD, "tests/pe-file.exe", O_RDONLY) = 4
	172285 mmap(NULL, 75595, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 4, 0) = 0x7fffa5cd0000
	172285 pwrite64(3, "MZ\220\0\3\0\0\0\4\0\0\0\377\377\0\0\270\0\0\0\0\0\0\0@\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 75595, 0) = 75595

Whereas if the link succeeds, it succeeds in the first attempt itself
and the file in the build-id dir will have same permission as original
file.

Example, above uses /tmp. Instead if we use "--buildid-dir /home/build",
linking will work here since mount points are same. Hence the
destination file will not have executable permission.

Since the testcase "tests/shell/buildid.sh" always looks for executable
file, test fails in powerpc environment when test is run from /root.

The patch adds a change in build_id_cache__add() to use copyfile_mode()
which also passes the file’s original mode as argument. This way the
destination file mode also will be same as original file.

The current implementation does not account for a trailing backslash
followed by a null-byte.

If a null-byte is encountered following a backslash, normalize() will
continue reading (and potentially writing) into garbage memory ignoring
the EOS null-byte.
