[ Upstream commit 11b6e5482e178055ec1f2444b55f2518713809d1 ]

The 'evname' variable can be NULL, as it is checked a few lines back,
check it before using.

commit 85afd35575a3c1a3a905722dde5ee70b49282e70 upstream.

Reportedly, from 19.10 Ubuntu has begun mixing up the location of some
debug symbol files, putting files expected to be in
/usr/lib/debug/usr/lib into /usr/lib/debug/lib instead. Fix by adding
another dso_binary_type.

Example on Ubuntu 20.04

  Before:

    $ perf record -e intel_pt//u uname
    Linux
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.030 MB perf.data ]
    $ perf script --call-trace | head -5
           uname 14003 [005] 15321.764958566:  cbr: 42 freq: 4219 MHz (156%)
           uname 14003 [005] 15321.764958566: (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.31.so              )          7f1e71cc4100

  After:

    $ perf script --call-trace | head -5
           uname 14003 [005] 15321.764958566:  cbr: 42 freq: 4219 MHz (156%)

<title>perf probe: Do not show the skipped events</title>

commit f41ebe9defacddeae96a872a33f0f22ced0bfcef upstream.

When a probe point is expanded to several places (like inlined) and if
some of them are skipped because of blacklisted or __init function,
those trace_events has no event name. It must be skipped while showing
results.

Without this fix, you can see "(null):(null)" on the list,

  # ./perf probe request_resource
  reserve_setup is out of .text, skip it.
  Added new events:
    (null):(null)        (on request_resource)
    probe:request_resource (on request_resource)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e probe:request_resource -aR sleep 1

  #

With this fix, it is ignored:

  # ./perf probe request_resource
  reserve_setup is out of .text, skip it.
  Added new events:
    probe:request_resource (on request_resource)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

  	perf record -e probe:request_resource -aR sleep 1

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit b87080eab4c1377706c113fc9c0157f19ea8fed1 ]

After successfully running the IPC msgque test once, subsequent runs
result in a test failure:

  $ sudo ./run_kselftest.sh
  TAP version 13
  1..1
  # selftests: ipc: msgque
  # Failed to get stats for IPC queue with id 0
  # Failed to dump queue: -22
  # Bail out!
  # # Pass 0 Fail 0 Xfail 0 Xpass 0 Skip 0 Error 0
  not ok 1 selftests: ipc: msgque # exit=1

The dump_queue() function loops through the possible message queue index
values using calls to msgctl(kern_id, MSG_STAT, ...) where kern_id
represents the index value. The first time the test is ran, the initial
index value of 0 is valid and the test is able to complete. The index
value of 0 is not valid in subsequent test runs and the loop attempts to
try index values of 1, 2, 3, and so on until a valid index value is
found that corresponds to the message queue created earlier in the test.

The msgctl() syscall returns -1 and sets errno to EINVAL when invalid
index values are used. The test failure is caused by incorrectly
comparing errno to -EINVAL when cycling through possible index values.

Fix invalid test failures on subsequent runs of the msgque test by
correctly comparing errno values to a non-negated EINVAL.

commit db2c549407d4a76563c579e4768f7d6d32afefba upstream.

This patch fixes an off-by-one error in strncpy size argument in
tools/perf/util/map.c. The issue is that in:

        strncmp(filename, "/system/lib/", 11)

the passed string literal: "/system/lib/" has 12 bytes (without the NULL
byte) and the passed size argument is 11. As a result, the logic won't
match the ending "/" byte and will pass filepaths that are stored in
other directories e.g. "/system/libmalicious/bin" or just
"/system/libmalicious".

This functionality seems to be present only on Android. I assume the
/system/ directory is only writable by the root user, so I don't think
this bug has much (or any) security impact.

[ Upstream commit be40920fbf1003c38ccdc02b571e01a75d890c82 ]

When I tried to compile tools/perf from the top directory with the -C
option, the O= option didn't work correctly if I passed a relative path:

  $ make O=BUILD -C tools/perf/
  make: Entering directory '/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
  ../scripts/Makefile.include:4: *** O=/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf/BUILD does not exist.  Stop.
  make: *** [Makefile:70: all] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory '/home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/tools/perf'

The O= directory existence check failed because the check script ran in
the build target directory instead of the directory where I ran the make
command.

To fix that, once change directory to $(PWD) and check O= directory,
since the PWD is set to where the make command runs.
