selftests: do not require bash to run netsocktests testcase

2017-03-06T22:29:10+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3659f98b5375d195f1870c3e508fe51e52206839 ]

Nothing in this minimal script seems to require bash. We often run these
tests on embedded devices where the only shell available is the busybox
ash. Use sh instead.

perf stat: Document --detailed option

2016-07-11T03:07:15+00:00

[ 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.

perf tools: handle spaces in file names obtained from /proc/pid/maps

[ Upstream commit 89fee59b504f86925894fcc9ba79d5c933842f93 ]

Steam frequently puts game binaries in folders with spaces.

Note: "(deleted)" markers are now treated as part of the file name.

tools lib traceevent: Do not reassign parg after collapse_tree()

2016-05-17T17:43:11+00:00

[ 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.

perf tools: Dont stop PMU parsing on alias parse error

2016-04-18T12:50:38+00:00

[ 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.

efi: Make efivarfs entries immutable by default

2016-04-12T02:44:23+00:00

[ 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.

perf tools: Update MANIFEST per files removed from kernel

[ Upstream commit c8ad7063626406181a7ebab10cb31b4f741b13d4 ]

Building perf out of kernel tree is currently broken because the
MANIFEST file refers to kernel files that have been removed. With this
patch make perf-targz-src-pkg succeeds as does building perf using the
generated tarfile.

perf kvm record/report: 'unprocessable sample' error while recording/reporting guest data

2016-02-03T21:23:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3caeaa562733c4836e61086ec07666635006a787 ]

While recording guest samples in host using perf kvm record, it will
populate unprocessable sample error, though samples will be recorded
properly. While generating report using perf kvm report, no samples will
be processed and same error will populate. We have seen this behaviour
with upstream perf(4.4-rc3) on x86 and ppc64 hardware.

Reason behind this failure is, when it tries to fetch machine from
rb_tree of machines, it fails. As a part of tracing a bug, we figured
out that this code was incorrectly refactored in commit 54245fdc3576
("perf session: Remove wrappers to machines__find").

This patch will change the functionality such that if it can't fetch
machine in first trial, it will create one node of machine and add that to
rb_tree. So next time when it tries to fetch same machine from rb_tree,
it won't fail. Actually it was the case before refactoring of code in
aforementioned commit.

This patch is generated from acme perf/core branch.

Below I've mention an example that demonstrate the behaviour before and
after applying patch.

Before applying patch:
[Note: One needs to run guest before recording data in host]
