[ Upstream commit 1416270f4a1ae83ea84156ceba19a66a8f88be1f ]

In the past we've warned when ADJ_OFFSET was in progress, usually
caused by ntpd or some other time adjusting daemon running in non
steady sate, which can cause the skew calculations to be
incorrect.

Thus, this patch checks to see if the clock was being adjusted
when we fail so that we don't cause false negatives.

Initialize heap_type to ION_HEAP_TYPE_SYSTEM to avoid "used uninitialized"
compiler warning. heap_type gets used after initialization, this change is
to just keep the compiler happy.

commit 03db8b583d1c3c84963e08e2abf6c79081da5c31 upstream.

Commit 1c5aae7710bb ("perf machine: Create maps for x86 PTI entry
trampolines") revealed a problem with maps__find_symbol_by_name() that
resulted in probes not being found e.g.

	$ sudo perf probe xsk_mmap
	xsk_mmap is out of .text, skip it.
	Probe point 'xsk_mmap' not found.
	   Error: Failed to add events.

maps__find_symbol_by_name() can optionally return the map of the found
symbol. It can get the map wrong because, in fact, the symbol is found
on the map's dso, not allowing for the possibility that the dso has more
than one map. Fix by always checking the map contains the symbol.

<title>perf script: Show correct offsets for DWARF-based unwinding</title>

<id>urn:sha1:acd8e75056b84d217a35ed1a135a0ad35ac68e3a</id>

[ Upstream commit 2a9d5050dc84fa2060f08a52f632976923e0fa7e ]

When perf/data is recorded with the dwarf call-graph option, the
callchain shown by 'perf script' still shows the binary offsets of the
userspace symbols instead of their virtual addresses. Since the symbol
offset calculation is based on using virtual address as the ip, we see
incorrect offsets as well.

The use of virtual addresses affects the ability to find out the
line number in the corresponding source file to which an address
maps to as described in commit 67540759151a ("perf unwind: Use
addr_location::addr instead of ip for entries").

This has also been addressed by temporarily converting the virtual
address to the correponding binary offset so that it can be mapped
to the source line number correctly.

This is a follow-up for commit 19610184693c ("perf script: Show
virtual addresses instead of offsets").

This can be verified on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as
shown below:

[ Upstream commit c715fcfda5a08edabaa15508742be926b7ee51db ]

For powerpc64, redundant entries in the callchain are filtered out by
determining the state of the return address and the stack frame using
DWARF debug information.

For making these filtering decisions we must analyze the debug
information for the location corresponding to the program counter value,
i.e. the first entry in the callchain, and not the LR value; otherwise,
perf may filter out either the second or the third entry in the
callchain incorrectly.

This can be observed on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as shown
below.

Case 1 - Attaching a probe at inet_pton+0x8 (binary offset 0x15af28).
         Return address is still in LR and a new stack frame is not yet
         allocated. The LR value, i.e. the second entry, should not be
	 filtered out.

Case 2 - Attaching a probe at _int_malloc+0x180 (binary offset 0x9cf10).
         Return address in still in LR and a new stack frame has already
         been allocated but not used. The caller's caller, i.e. the third
	 entry, is invalid and should be filtered out and not the second
	 one.

<title>perf powerpc: Fix callchain ip filtering when return address is in a register</title>

[ Upstream commit 9068533e4f470daf2b0f29c71d865990acd8826e ]

For powerpc64, perf will filter out the second entry in the callchain,
i.e. the LR value, if the return address of the function corresponding
to the probed location has already been saved on its caller's stack.

The state of the return address is determined using debug information.
At any point within a function, if the return address is already saved
somewhere, a DWARF expression can tell us about its location. If the
return address in still in LR only, no DWARF expression would exist.

Typically, the instructions in a function's prologue first copy the LR
value to R0 and then pushes R0 on to the stack. If LR has already been
copied to R0 but R0 is yet to be pushed to the stack, we can still get a
DWARF expression that says that the return address is in R0. This is
indicating that getting a DWARF expression for the return address does
not guarantee the fact that it has already been saved on the stack.

This can be observed on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as shown
below.

[ Upstream commit 46b3722cc7765582354488da633aafffcb138458 ]

We occasionaly hit following assert failure in 'perf top', when processing the
/proc info in multiple threads.

  perf: ...include/linux/refcount.h:109: refcount_inc:
        Assertion `!(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r))' failed.

The gdb backtrace looks like this:

  [Switching to Thread 0x7ffff11ba700 (LWP 13749)]

  #11 0x0000000000523eb4 in __machine__findnew_thread (machine=0xbfde38,
  ...

The failing assertion is this one:

  REFCOUNT_WARN(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r), ...

The problem is that we keep global comm_str_root list, which
is accessed by multiple threads during the 'perf top' startup
and following 2 paths can race:

  thread 1:
    ...
    thread__new
      comm__new
        comm_str__findnew
          down_write(&amp;comm_str_lock);
          __comm_str__findnew
            comm_str__get

  thread 2:
    ...
    comm__override or comm__free
      comm_str__put
        refcount_dec_and_test
          down_write(&amp;comm_str_lock);
          rb_erase(&amp;cs-&gt;rb_node, &amp;comm_str_root);

Because thread 2 first decrements the refcnt and only after then it removes the
struct comm_str from the list, the thread 1 can find this object on the list
with refcnt equls to 0 and hit the assert.

This patch fixes the thread 1 __comm_str__findnew path, by ignoring objects
that already dropped the refcnt to 0. For the rest of the objects we take the
refcnt before comparing its name and release it afterwards with comm_str__put,
which can also release the object completely.
