commit f35f71244da6e51db4e1f2c7e318581f498ececf upstream.

It appears that no one ever run ffs-test on a big-endian machine,
since it used cpu-endianess for fs_count and hs_count fields which
should be in little-endian format.  Fix by wrapping the numbers in
cpu_to_le32.

<title>turbostat: Use GCC's CPUID functions to support PIC</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 2b92865e648ce04a39fda4f903784a5d01ecb0dc upstream.

turbostat uses inline assembly to call cpuid.  On 32-bit x86, on systems
that have certain security features enabled by default that make -fPIC
the default, this causes a build error:

turbostat.c: In function ‘check_cpuid’:
turbostat.c:1906:2: error: PIC register clobbered by ‘ebx’ in ‘asm’
  asm("cpuid" : "=a" (fms), "=c" (ecx), "=d" (edx) : "a" (1) : "ebx");
  ^

GCC provides a header cpuid.h, containing a __get_cpuid function that
works with both PIC and non-PIC.  (On PIC, it saves and restores ebx
around the cpuid instruction.)  Use that instead.

<title>cpupower: Fix segfault due to incorrect getopt_long arugments</title>

commit f447ef4a56dee4b68a91460bcdfe06b5011085f2 upstream.

If a user calls 'cpupower set --perf-bias 15', the process will end with
a SIGSEGV in libc because cpupower-set passes a NULL optarg to the atoi
call.  This is because the getopt_long structure currently has all of
the options as having an optional_argument when they really have a
required argument.  We change the structure to use required_argument to
match the short options and it resolves the issue.

This fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1000439

commit 7b78f13603c6fcb64e020a0bbe31a651ea2b657b upstream.

On a system running glibc trunk perf doesn't build:

    CC builtin-sched.o
builtin-sched.c: In function ‘get_cpu_usage_nsec_parent’: builtin-sched.c:399:16: error: storage size of ‘ru’ isn’t known builtin-sched.c:403:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘getrusage’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
    [...]

Fix it by including sys/resource.h.

Judging anonymous memory's vm_area_struct, perf_mmap_event's filename
will be set to "//anon" indicating this vma belongs to anonymous
memory.

Once hugepage is used, vma's vm_file points to hugetlbfs. In this way,
this vma will not be regarded as anonymous memory by is_anon_memory() in
perf user space utility.

commit 5a1e99dd2028e00998d42029be86835d8ef4a46e upstream.

The comparison between traced and symbol addresses is backwards: if
the traced address doesn't exactly match a symbol (which we don't
expect it to), we'll show the next symbol and the offset to it,
whereas we should show the previous symbol and the offset from it.

commit 95a69adab9acfc3981c504737a2b6578e4d846ef upstream.

The source code without this patch caused hypervkvpd to exit when it processed
a spoofed Netlink packet which has been sent from an untrusted local user.
Now Netlink messages with a non-zero nl_pid source address are ignored
and a warning is printed into the syslog.

'perf: Fix parsing of __print_flags() in TP_printk()'.  The same
