[ Upstream commit ab6e9a99345131cd8e54268d1d0dc04a33f7ed11 ]

The symbol search called by machine__find_kernel_symbol_by_name is using
internally arch__compare_symbol_names function to compare 2 symbol
names, because different archs have different ways of comparing symbols.
Mostly for skipping '.' prefixes and similar.

In test 1 when we try to find matching symbols in kallsyms and vmlinux,
by address and by symbol name. When either is found we compare the pair
symbol names  by simple strcmp, which is not good enough for reasons
explained in previous paragraph.

On powerpc this can cause lockup, because even thought we found the
pair, the compared names are different and don't match simple strcmp.
Following code path is executed, that leads to lockup:

   - we find the pair in kallsyms by sym-&gt;start
next_pair:
   - we compare the names and it fails
   - we find the pair by sym-&gt;name
   - the pair addresses match so we call goto next_pair
     because we assume the names match in this case

This reverts commit b0761b57e0bf11ada4c45e68f4cba1370363d90d which is
commit 94df1040b1e6aacd8dec0ba3c61d7e77cd695f26 upstream.

It breaks the build of perf on 4.4.y, so I'm dropping it.

[ Upstream commit 94df1040b1e6aacd8dec0ba3c61d7e77cd695f26 ]

If a kernel modules is compressed, it should be decompressed before
running objdump to parse binary data correctly.  This fixes a failure of
object code reading test for me.

[ Upstream commit 805b151a1afd24414706a7f6ae275fbb9649be74 ]

__kmod_path__parse() uses is_supported_compression() to determine and
parse out compressed module file extensions.  On systems without zlib,
this test fails and __kmod_path__parse() continues to strcmp "ko" with
"gz".  Don't do this on those systems.

<title>perf test attr: Fix ignored test case result</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 22905582f6dd4bbd0c370fe5732c607452010c04 ]

Command perf test -v 16 (Setup struct perf_event_attr test) always
reports success even if the test case fails.  It works correctly if you
also specify -F (for don't fork).

   root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -v 16
   15: Setup struct perf_event_attr               :
   --- start ---
   running './tests/attr/test-record-no-delay'
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB /tmp/tmp4E1h7R/perf.data
     (1 samples) ]
   expected task=0, got 1
   expected precise_ip=0, got 3
   expected wakeup_events=1, got 0
   FAILED './tests/attr/test-record-no-delay' - match failure
   test child finished with 0
   ---- end ----
   Setup struct perf_event_attr: Ok

The reason for the wrong error reporting is the return value of the
system() library call. It is called in run_dir() file tests/attr.c and
returns the exit status, in above case 0xff00.

This value is given as parameter to the exit() function which can only
handle values 0-0xff.

The child process terminates with exit value of 0 and the parent does
not detect any error.

This patch corrects the error reporting and prints the correct test
result.

This patch adds BPF testcase for testing BPF event filtering.

By utilizing the result of 'perf test LLVM', this patch compiles the
eBPF sample program then test its ability. The BPF script in 'perf test
LLVM' lets only 50% samples generated by epoll_pwait() to be captured.
This patch runs that system call for 111 times, so the result should
contain 56 samples.
