[ 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.

commit 78393fdde2a456cafa414b171c90f26a3df98b20 upstream.

POPF is currently broken -- add tests to catch the error.  This
results in:

   [RUN]	POPF with VIP set and IF clear from vm86 mode
   [INFO]	Exited vm86 mode due to STI
   [FAIL]	Incorrect return reason (started at eip = 0xd, ended at eip = 0xf)

because POPF currently fails to check IF before reporting a pending
interrupt.

This patch also makes the FAIL message a bit more informative.

<title>selftests/x86: Add tests for the STR and SLDT instructions</title>

commit a9e017d5619eb371460c8e516f4684def62bef3a upstream.

The STR and SLDT instructions are not valid when running on virtual-8086
mode and generate an invalid operand exception. These two instructions are
protected by the Intel User-Mode Instruction Prevention (UMIP) security
feature. In protected mode, if UMIP is enabled, these instructions generate
a general protection fault if called from CPL &gt; 0. Linux traps the general
protection fault and emulates the instructions sgdt, sidt and smsw; but not
str and sldt.

These tests are added to verify that the emulation code does not emulate
these two instructions but the expected invalid operand exception is
seen.

Tests fallback to exit with INT3 in case emulation does happen.

<title>selftests/x86: Add tests for User-Mode Instruction Prevention</title>

<id>00968998edd5445ddb09c2889c4957a32aa43d34</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 9390afebe1d3f5a0be18b1afdd0ce09d67cebf9e upstream.

Certain user space programs that run on virtual-8086 mode may utilize
instructions protected by the User-Mode Instruction Prevention (UMIP)
security feature present in new Intel processors: SGDT, SIDT and SMSW. In
such a case, a general protection fault is issued if UMIP is enabled. When
such a fault happens, the kernel traps it and emulates the results of
these instructions with dummy values. The purpose of this new
test is to verify whether the impacted instructions can be executed
without causing such #GP. If no #GP exceptions occur, we expect to exit
virtual-8086 mode from INT3.

The instructions protected by UMIP are executed in representative use
cases:

 a) displacement-only memory addressing
 b) register-indirect memory addressing
 c) results stored directly in operands

Unfortunately, it is not possible to check the results against a set of
expected values because no emulation will occur in systems that do not
have the UMIP feature. Instead, results are printed for verification. A
simple verification is done to ensure that results of all tests are
identical.

[ Upstream commit 2adfa4210f8f35cdfb4e08318cc06b99752964c2 ]

The 'configinit.sh' script checks the format of optional argument for the
build directory, printing an error message if the format is not valid.
However, the error message uses the wrong variable, indicating an empty
string even though the user entered a non-empty (but erroneous) string.
This commit fixes the script to use the correct variable.

[ Upstream commit 77be4c878c72e411ad22af96b6f81dd45c26450a ]

Indeed musl doesn't define old SIGCLD signal name but only new one SIGCHLD.
SIGCHLD is the new POSIX name for that signal so it doesn't change
anything on other libcs.

This fixes this kind of build error:

usbipd.c: In function ‘set_signal’:
usbipd.c:459:12: error: 'SIGCLD' undeclared (first use in this function)
  sigaction(SIGCLD, &amp;act, NULL);
            ^~~~~~
usbipd.c:459:12: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once
	for each function it appears in
Makefile:407: recipe for target 'usbipd.o' failed

<title>test_firmware: fix setting old custom fw path back on exit</title>

[ Upstream commit 65c79230576873b312c3599479c1e42355c9f349 ]

The file /sys/module/firmware_class/parameters/path can be used
to set a custom firmware path. The fw_filesystem.sh script creates
a temporary directory to add a test firmware file to be used during
testing, in order for this to work it uses the custom path syfs file
and it was supposed to reset back the file on execution exit. The
script failed to do this due to a typo, it was using OLD_PATH instead
of OLD_FWPATH, since its inception since v3.17.

Its not as easy to just keep the old setting, it turns out that
resetting an empty setting won't actually do what we want, we need
to check if it was empty and set an empty space.

Without this we end up having the temporary path always set after
we run these tests.

Session sets a number parameters that rely on evlist. These parameters
are not used in pipe-mode and should not be set, since evlist is
unavailable. Fix that.

<title>perf inject: Copy events when reordering events in pipe mode</title>

[ Upstream commit 1e0d4f0200e4dbdfc38d818f329d8a0955f7c6f5 ]

__perf_session__process_pipe_events reuses the same memory buffer to
process all events in the pipe.

When reordering is needed (e.g. -b option), events are not immediately
flushed, but kept around until reordering is possible, causing
memory corruption.

The problem is usually observed by a "Unknown sample error" output. It
can easily be reproduced by:

  perf record -o - noploop | perf inject -b &gt; output

Committer testing:

Before:

  $ perf record -o - stress -t 2 -c 2 | perf inject -b &gt; /dev/null
  stress: info: [8297] dispatching hogs: 2 cpu, 0 io, 0 vm, 0 hdd
  stress: info: [8297] successful run completed in 2s
  [ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
  Warning:
  Found 1 unknown events!

  Is this an older tool processing a perf.data file generated by a more recent tool?

  If that is not the case, consider reporting to linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org.

  $

After:

  $ perf record -o - stress -t 2 -c 2 | perf inject -b &gt; /dev/null
  stress: info: [9027] dispatching hogs: 2 cpu, 0 io, 0 vm, 0 hdd
  stress: info: [9027] successful run completed in 2s
