[ Upstream commit f60227f3448911b682c45041c3fbd94f6d3b15a2 ]

Currently, the userspace RV tool skips trace events triggered by the RV
tool itself, this can be changed by passing the parameter -s, which sets
the variable config_my_pid to 0 (instead of the tool's PID).
This has the side effect of skipping events generated by idle (PID 0).

Set config_my_pid to -1 (an invalid pid) to avoid skipping idle.

[ Upstream commit 571f8b3f866a6d990a50fe5c89fe0ea78784d70b ]

This patch makes the dot parser used by dot2c and dot2k slightly more
robust, namely:
* allows parsing files with the gv extension (GraphViz)
* correctly parses edges with any indentation
    * used to work only with a single character (e.g. '\t')
Additionally it fixes a couple of warnings reported by pylint such as
wrong indentation and comparison to False instead of `not ...`

commit f9b2c87105c989a7b259c6da87673ada96dce2f8 upstream.

The following errors are showing up when compiling rv with clang:

 $ make HOSTCC=clang CC=clang LLVM_IAS=1
 [...]
  clang -O -g -DVERSION=\"6.8.0-rc1\" -flto=auto -ffat-lto-objects

  clang: warning: optimization flag '-ffat-lto-objects' is not supported [-Wignored-optimization-argument]

  clang -o rv -ggdb  src/in_kernel.o src/rv.o src/trace.o src/utils.o $(pkg-config --libs libtracefs)
  src/in_kernel.o: file not recognized: file format not recognized
  clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
  make: *** [Makefile:110: rv] Error 1

Solve these issues by:
  - removing -ffat-lto-objects and -Wno-maybe-uninitialized if using clang
  - informing the linker about -flto=auto

Which is correct. Setting curr_reactor to NULL avoids the problem.

The variable run is not initialized however it is being accumulated
by the return value from the call to ikm_run_monitor.  Fix this by
initializing run to zero at the start of the function.

It makes sense to move the important monitor structure into rodata to
prevent accidental structure modification.

Add the ability to control and trace in-kernel monitors. This is
a generic interface, it will check for existing monitors and enable
standard setup, like enabling reactors.

For example:

  # rv list
  wip                      wakeup in preemptive per-cpu testing monitor. [OFF]
  wwnr                     wakeup while not running per-task testing model. [OFF]

  # rv mon wwnr --help
  rv version 6.1.0-rc4: help

  usage: rv mon wwnr [-h] [-q] [-r reactor] [-s] [-v]
	-h/--help: print this menu and the reactor list
	-r/--reactor 'reactor': enables the 'reactor'
	-s/--self: when tracing (-t), also trace rv command
	-t/--trace: trace monitor's event
	-v/--verbose: print debug messages

  available reactors: nop printk panic

  # rv mon wwnr --trace
          &lt;TASK&gt;-PID      [CPU]  TYPE       ID                    STATE x EVENT                    -&gt; NEXT_STATE               FINAL
