This reverts commit 7525a238be8f46617cdda29d1be5b85ffe3b042d which is
commit 94df1040b1e6aacd8dec0ba3c61d7e77cd695f26 upstream.

It breaks the build of perf on 4.9.y, so I'm dropping it.

[ Upstream commit 94df1040b1e6aacd8dec0ba3c61d7e77cd695f26 ]

If a kernel modules is compressed, it should be decompressed before
running objdump to parse binary data correctly.  This fixes a failure of
object code reading test for me.

[ Upstream commit 805b151a1afd24414706a7f6ae275fbb9649be74 ]

__kmod_path__parse() uses is_supported_compression() to determine and
parse out compressed module file extensions.  On systems without zlib,
this test fails and __kmod_path__parse() continues to strcmp "ko" with
"gz".  Don't do this on those systems.

<title>perf tools: Fix build with ARCH=x86_64</title>

commit 7a759cd8e8272ee18922838ee711219c7c796a31 upstream.

With commit: 0a943cb10ce78 (tools build: Add HOSTARCH Makefile variable)
when building for ARCH=x86_64, ARCH=x86_64 is passed to perf instead of
ARCH=x86, so the perf build process searchs header files from
tools/arch/x86_64/include, which doesn't exist.

The following build failure is seen:

  In file included from util/event.c:2:0:
    tools/include/uapi/linux/mman.h:4:27: fatal error: uapi/asm/mman.h: No such file or directory
    compilation terminated.

Fix this issue by using SRCARCH instead of ARCH in perf, just like the
main kernel Makefile and tools/objtool's.

[ Upstream commit 22905582f6dd4bbd0c370fe5732c607452010c04 ]

Command perf test -v 16 (Setup struct perf_event_attr test) always
reports success even if the test case fails.  It works correctly if you
also specify -F (for don't fork).

   root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -v 16
   15: Setup struct perf_event_attr               :
   --- start ---
   running './tests/attr/test-record-no-delay'
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB /tmp/tmp4E1h7R/perf.data
     (1 samples) ]
   expected task=0, got 1
   expected precise_ip=0, got 3
   expected wakeup_events=1, got 0
   FAILED './tests/attr/test-record-no-delay' - match failure
   test child finished with 0
   ---- end ----
   Setup struct perf_event_attr: Ok

The reason for the wrong error reporting is the return value of the
system() library call. It is called in run_dir() file tests/attr.c and
returns the exit status, in above case 0xff00.

This value is given as parameter to the exit() function which can only
handle values 0-0xff.

The child process terminates with exit value of 0 and the parent does
not detect any error.

This patch corrects the error reporting and prints the correct test
result.

<title>perf tests: Add dwarf unwind test for powerpc</title>

The user stack dump feature was recently added for powerpc. But there
was no test case available to test it.

This test works same as on other architectures by preparing a stack
frame on the perf test thread and comparing each frame by unwinding it.

  $ ./perf test 50
    50: Test dwarf unwind    : Ok

We're not using it anymore, few users were, but we really could do
without it, simplify lots of functions by removing it.

We don't need to initialize that area as we're not using it afterwards,
leftover, ditch it.

<title>perf test vmlinux: Tolerate symbol aliases</title>

The algorithms used to prune aliases in symbols__fixup_duplicate() uses
information available on ELF symtabs that are not present on
/proc/kallsyms, so it picks different aliases as "best" for vmlinux and
kallsyms.

We could probably improve a bit this by having a list of aliases for the
"best" symbols picked, instead of throwing this info, but that is left
for when we find a real need.

With this, 'perf test vmlinux' passes:

  # perf test -F 1
   1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
  #

When we ask for verbose mode, we can see those warning:

  # perf test -F -v 1
   1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms:
