[ Upstream commit b50d691e50e600fab82b423be871860537d75dc9 ]

Parametrized events are not only a powerpc domain. They occur on other
platforms too (e.g. aarch64). They should be ignored in this testcase,
since proper setup of the parameters is out of scope of this script.

Let's not filter them out by PMU name, but rather based on the fact that
they expect a parameter.

Use the global quiet variable everywhere so that all tools hide warnings
in quiet mode and update the documentation to reflect this.

'perf probe' claimed that errors are not printed in quiet mode but I
don't see this so remove it from the docs.

[ Upstream commit 188ac720d364035008a54d249cf47b4cc100f819 ]

When perf uses quiet mode, perf_quiet_option() sets the 'debug_peo_args'
variable to -1, and display_attr() incorrectly determines the value of
'debug_peo_args'.  As a result, unexpected information is displayed.

Before:

  # perf record --quiet -- ls &gt; /dev/null
  ------------------------------------------------------------
  perf_event_attr:
    size                             128

    sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD

<title>libbpf: Avoid enum forward-declarations in public API in C++ mode</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit b42693415b86f608049cf1b4870adc1dc65e58b0 ]

C++ enum forward declarations are fundamentally not compatible with pure
C enum definitions, and so libbpf's use of `enum bpf_stats_type;`
forward declaration in libbpf/bpf.h public API header is causing C++
compilation issues.

More details can be found in [0], but it comes down to C++ supporting
enum forward declaration only with explicitly specified backing type:

  enum bpf_stats_type: int;

In C (and I believe it's a GCC extension also), such forward declaration
is simply:

  enum bpf_stats_type;

Further, in Linux UAPI this enum is defined in pure C way:

enum bpf_stats_type { BPF_STATS_RUN_TIME = 0; }

And even though in both cases backing type is int, which can be
confirmed by looking at DWARF information, for C++ compiler actual enum
definition and forward declaration are incompatible.

To eliminate this problem, for C++ mode define input argument as int,
which makes enum unnecessary in libbpf public header. This solves the
issue and as demonstrated by next patch doesn't cause any unwanted
compiler warnings, at least with default warnings setting.

$number + &gt; bash means redirect FD $number, e.g. commonly
used 2&gt; redirects stderr (fd 2). The test uses 8192&gt; to
write the number 8192 to a file, this results in:

  ./devlink.sh: line 499: 8192: Bad file descriptor

Oddly the test also papers over this issue by checking
for failure (expecting an error rather than success)
so it passes, anyway.

BPF selftests require CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION to work. However,
CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is no longer 'y' by default after recent
changes. As a result, we are seeing errors like the following from BPF CI:

   bpf_testmod_test_read() is not modifiable
   __x64_sys_setdomainname is not sleepable
   __x64_sys_getpgid is not sleepable

Fix this by explicitly selecting CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION in the
selftest config.

<title>perf stat: Do not delay the workload with --delay</title>

[ Upstream commit c587e77e100fa40eb6af10e00497c67acf493f33 ]

The -D/--delay option is to delay the measure after the program starts.
But the current code goes to sleep before starting the program so the
program is delayed too.  This is not the intention, let's fix it.

Before:

  $ time sudo ./perf stat -a -e cycles -D 3000 sleep 4
  Events disabled
  Events enabled

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

       4,326,949,337      cycles

         4.007494118 seconds time elapsed

  real	0m7.474s
  user	0m0.356s
  sys	0m0.120s

It ran the workload for 4 seconds and gave the 3 second delay.  So it
should skip the first 3 second and measure the last 1 second only.  But
as you can see, it delays 3 seconds and ran the workload after that for
4 seconds.  So the total time (real) was 7 seconds.

After:

  $ time sudo ./perf stat -a -e cycles -D 3000 sleep 4
  Events disabled
  Events enabled

   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

       1,063,551,013      cycles

         1.002769510 seconds time elapsed

  real	0m4.484s

The bug was introduced when it changed enablement of system-wide events
with a command line workload.  But it should've considered the initial
delay case.  The code was reworked since then (in bb8bc52e7578) so I'm
afraid it won't be applied cleanly.
