<content type='text'>
commit 80f62589fa52f530cffc50e78c0b5a2ae572d61e upstream.

When the jump instruction is displayed at the row 0 in annotate view,
the arrow is broken. An example:

 16.86 │   ┌──je     82
  0.01 │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm0
       │      movsd  0x8(%rsp),%xmm4
       │      movsd  0x8(%rsp),%xmm1
       │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm3
       │      divsd  %xmm4,%xmm0
       │      divsd  %xmm3,%xmm1
       │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm2
       │      addsd  %xmm1,%xmm0
       │      addsd  %xmm2,%xmm0
       │      movsd  %xmm0,(%rsp)
       │82:   sub    $0x1,%ebx
 83.03 │    ↑ jne    38
       │      add    $0x10,%rsp
       │      xor    %eax,%eax
       │      pop    %rbx
       │    ← retq

The patch increments the row number before checking with 0.

<title>tools/lib/lockdep: Reduce MAX_LOCK_DEPTH to avoid overflowing lock_chain/: Depth</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3eb7672cbf8bdd917971479d40b0b4bdf1f1ad9a</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 98dcea0cfd04e083ac74137ceb9a632604740e2d upstream.

liblockdep has been broken since commit 75dd602a5198 ("lockdep: Fix
lock_chain::base size"), as that adds a check that MAX_LOCK_DEPTH is
within the range of lock_chain::depth and in liblockdep it is much
too large.

That should have resulted in a compiler error, but didn't because:

- the check uses ARRAY_SIZE(), which isn't yet defined in liblockdep
  so is assumed to be an (undeclared) function
- putting a function call inside a BUILD_BUG_ON() expression quietly
  turns it into some nonsense involving a variable-length array

It did produce a compiler warning, but I didn't notice because
liblockdep already produces too many warnings if -Wall is enabled
(which I'll fix shortly).

Even before that commit, which reduced lock_chain::depth from 8 bits
to 6, MAX_LOCK_DEPTH was too large.

commit 4cca0457686e4ee1677d69469e4ddfd94d389a80 upstream.

The switch that conditionally sets CPUPOWER_CAP_HAS_TURBO_RATIO and
CPUPOWER_CAP_IS_SNB flags is missing a break, so all cores get both
flags set and an assumed base clock of 100 MHz for turbo values.

[ Upstream commit f594bae08183fb6b57db55387794ece3e1edf6f6 ]

I'm surprised this remained undocumented since at least 2011. And it is
actually a very useful switch, as Steve and I came to realize recently.

Add the text from

  2cba3ffb9a9d ("perf stat: Add -d -d and -d -d -d options to show more CPU events")

which added the incrementing aspect to -d.

[ Upstream commit 106b816cb46ebd87408b4ed99a2e16203114daa6 ]

At the end of process_filter(), collapse_tree() was changed to update
the parg parameter, but the reassignment after the call wasn't removed.

What happens is that the "current_op" gets modified and freed and parg
is assigned to the new allocated argument. But after the call to
collapse_tree(), parg is assigned again to the just freed "current_op",
and this causes the tool to crash.

The current_op variable must also be assigned to NULL in case of error,
otherwise it will cause it to be free()ed twice.

<title>perf tools: Dont stop PMU parsing on alias parse error</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 940db6dcd3f4659303fdf6befe7416adc4d24118 ]

When an error happens during alias parsing currently the complete
parsing of all attributes of the PMU is stopped. This is breaks old perf
on a newer kernel that may have not-yet-know alias attributes (such as
.scale or .per-pkg).

Continue when some attribute is unparseable.

This is IMHO a stable candidate and should be backported to older
versions to avoid problems with newer kernels.

v2: Print warnings when something goes wrong.
v3: Change warning to debug output

[ Upstream commit ed8b0de5a33d2a2557dce7f9429dca8cb5bc5879 ]

"rm -rf" is bricking some peoples' laptops because of variables being
used to store non-reinitializable firmware driver data that's required
to POST the hardware.

These are 100% bugs, and they need to be fixed, but in the mean time it
shouldn't be easy to *accidentally* brick machines.

We have to have delete working, and picking which variables do and don't
work for deletion is quite intractable, so instead make everything
immutable by default (except for a whitelist), and make tools that
aren't quite so broad-spectrum unset the immutable flag.
