[ Upstream commit 1741189d843a1d5ef38538bc52a3760e2e46cb2e ]

In 7cecb7fe8388d5c3 ("perf hists: Move sort__has_comm into struct
perf_hpp_list") it assumes that act-&gt;thread is set prior to calling
do_zoom_thread().

This doesn't happen when we use ESC or the Left arrow key to Zoom out of
a specific thread, making this operation not to work and we get stuck
into the thread zoom.

In 6422184b087ff435 ("perf hists browser: Simplify zooming code using
pstack_peek()") it says no need to set actions-&gt;thread, and at that
point that was true, but in 7cecb7fe8388d5c3 a actions-&gt;thread == NULL
check was added before the zoom out of thread could kick in.

We can zoom out using the alternative 't' thread zoom toggle hotkey to
finally set actions-&gt;thread before calling do_zoom_thread() and zoom
out, but lets also fix the ESC/Zoom out of thread case.

<title>perf hists browser: Fix the number of entries for 'e' key</title>

<content type='text'>
commit f6b8436bede3e80226e8b2100279c4450c73806a upstream.

The 'e' key is to toggle expand/collapse the selected entry only.  But
the current code has a bug that it only increases the number of entries
by 1 in the hierarchy mode so users cannot move under the current entry
after the key stroke.  This is due to a wrong assumption in the
hist_entry__set_folding().

The commit b33f922651011eff ("perf hists browser: Put hist_entry folding
logic into single function") factored out the code, but actually it
should be handled separately.  The hist_browser__set_folding() is to
update fold state for each entry so it needs to traverse all (child)
entries regardless of the current fold state.  So it increases the
number of entries by 1.

But the hist_entry__set_folding() only cares the currently selected
entry and its all children.  So it should count all unfolded child
entries.  This code is implemented in hist_browser__toggle_fold()
already so we can just call it.

commit e2cabf2a44791f01c21f8d5189b946926e34142e upstream.

The commit ef9ff6017e3c4593 ("perf ui browser: Move the extra title
lines from the hists browser") introduced ui_browser__gotorc_title() to
help moving non-title lines easily.  But it missed to update the title
for the hierarchy mode so it won't print the header line on TUI at all.

  $ perf report --hierarchy

[ Upstream commit 0ca1f534a776cc7d42f2c33da4732b74ec2790cd ]

perf_hpp__column_unregister() removes an entry from a list but doesn't
free the memory causing a memory leak spotted by leak sanitizer.

Add the free while at the same time reducing the scope of the function
to static.

<title>perf top/report: Fix infinite loop in the TUI for grouped events</title>

<content type='text'>
For a while we need to have a dummy event for doing things like
receiving PERF_RECORD_COMM, PERF_RECORD_EXEC, etc for threads being
created and dying while we synthesize the pre-existing ones at tool
start.

This 'dummy' event is needed for keeping track of thread lifetime events
early in the session but are uninteresting otherwise, i.e. no need to
have it in a initial events menu for the non-grouped case, i.e. for:

 # perf top -e cycles,instructions

or even for plain:

 # perf top

When 'cycles' and that 'dummy' event are in place.

The code to remove that 'dummy' event ended up creating an endless loop
for the grouped case, i.e.:

 # perf top -e '{cycles,instructions}'

Fix it.

Fixing the common case of:

  perf record
  perf report

And getting just the cycles events.

We now have a 'dummy' event to get perf metadata events that take place
while we synthesize metadata records for pre-existing processes by
traversing procfs, so we always have this extra 'dummy' evsel, but we
don't have to offer it as there will be no samples on it, remove this
distraction.

<title>perf report TUI: Fix segmentation fault in perf_evsel__hists_browse()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d61cbb859b45fdb6b4997f2d51834fae41af0e94</id>
<content type='text'>
The segmentation fault can be reproduced as following steps:

1) Executing perf report in tui.

2) Typing '/xxxxx' to filter the symbol to get nothing matched.

3) Pressing enter with no entry selected.

Then it will report a segmentation fault.

It is caused by the lack of check of browser-&gt;he_selection when
accessing it's member res_samples in perf_evsel__hists_browse().

These processes are meaningful for specified samples, so we can skip
these when nothing is selected.
