Make the type field in pmu-events/arch/s390/mapfile.cvs more generic to
match the created cpuid string for s390.
The pattern also checks for the counter first version number and counter
second version number ([13]\.[1-5]) and the authorization field which
follows.
These numbers do not exist in the cpuid identification string when perf
commands are executed on a z/VM environment (which does not support CPU
counter measurement facility).
CPUID string for LPAR:
cpuid : IBM,3906,704,M03,3.5,002f
CPUID string for z/VM:
cpuid : IBM,2964,702,N96
This allows the removal of s390 specific cpuid compare code and uses the
common compare function with its regular expression matching algorithm.

map_groups__fixup_end() was called to set the end addresses of kernel
and module maps. But now since machine__create_modules() sets the end
address of modules properly, the only remaining piece is the kernel map.
We can set it with adjacent module's address directly instead of calling
map_groups__fixup_end(). If there's no module after the kernel map, the
end address will be ~0ULL.
Since it also changes the start address of the kernel map, it needs to
re-insert the map to the kmaps in order to keep a correct ordering. Kim
reported that it caused problems on ARM64.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent
Pull perf/urgent fixes and improvements from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Store context switch out type in PERF_RECORD_SWITCH[_CPU_WIDE].
The percentage of preempting and non-preempting context switches help
understanding the nature of workloads (CPU or IO bound) that are running
on a machine. This adds the kernel facility and userspace changes needed
to show this information in 'perf script' and 'perf report -D' (Alexey Budankov)
- Remove old error messages about things that unlikely to be the root cause
in modern systems (Andi Kleen)
- Synchronize kernel ABI headers, v4.17-rc1 (Ingo Molnar)
- Support MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE, noticed when updating the tools/include/
copies (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Fixup BPF test using epoll_pwait syscall function probe, to cope with
the syscall routines renames performed in this development cycle (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Fix sample_max_stack maximum check and do not proceed when an error
has been detect, return them to avoid misidentifying errors (Jiri Olsa)
- Add '\n' at the end of parse-options error messages (Ravi Bangoria)
- Add s390 support for detailed/verbose PMU event description (Thomas Richter)

SBOX on some Broadwell CPUs is broken because it's enabled unconditionally
despite the fact that there are no SBOXes available.
Check the Power Control Unit CAPID4 register to determine the number of
available SBOXes on the particular CPU before trying to enable them. If
there are none, nullify the SBOX descriptor so it isn't tried to be
initialized.

This reverts commit 3b94a891667c ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Remove

Revert because there exists a proper workaround for Broadwell-EP servers
without SBOX now. Note that BDX-DE does not have a SBOX.

Since e145242ea0df ("syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Clean up syscall stub
naming convention") changed the main syscall function for 'epoll_pwait'
to something other than the expected 'SyS_epoll_pwait the' 'perf test
BPF' entries started failing, fix it by using something called from the
main syscall function instead, 'epoll_wait', which should keep this test
working in older kernels too.
Before:
# perf test BPF
40: BPF filter :
40.1: Basic BPF filtering : FAILED!
40.2: BPF pinning : Skip
40.3: BPF prologue generation : Skip
40.4: BPF relocation checker : Skip
If we use -v for that test we see the problem:
Probe point 'SyS_epoll_pwait' not found.
After:
# perf test BPF
40: BPF filter :
40.1: Basic BPF filtering : Ok
40.2: BPF pinning : Ok
40.3: BPF prologue generation : Ok
40.4: BPF relocation checker : Ok

In the 'perf test "mmap interface"' we try creating events for several
tracepoints, but when perf_evsel__new() fails we're not showing which
one is failing, fix that to help diagnosing problems, such as the
syscall tracepoints ones being found and fixes in this merge window.
Now the failing tests shows:
# perf test -v "mmap interface"
4: Read samples using the mmap interface :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 14311
<SNIP>
perf_evsel__new(sys_enter_getppid)
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Read samples using the mmap interface: FAILED!
#
Now to check why the syscalls:sys_enter_getppid is failing...
# ls -la /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_getppid
ls: cannot access '/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_getppid': No such file or directory

When perf record encounters an error setting up an event it suggests
to enable CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS. This is misleading because:
- Usually it is enabled (it is really hard to disable on x86)
- The problem is usually somewhere else, e.g. the CPU is not supported
or an invalid configuration has been used.
Remove the misleading suggestion.

Introduced in a4ff8e8620d3 ("mm: introduce MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE"), and
now that we have that define in the just syncronized
tools/arch/*/include/uapi/asm/mman.h files, add support for it.
This should really transition to autogeneration of string tables as
done for various other things:
$ ls /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/*.c
arch_errno_name_array.c kcmp_type_array.c madvise_behavior_array.c
pkey_alloc_access_rights_array.c prctl_option_array.c
$ head /tmp/build/perf/trace/beauty/generated/madvise_behavior_array.c
static const char *madvise_advices[] = {
[0] = "NORMAL",
[1] = "RANDOM",
[2] = "SEQUENTIAL",
[3] = "WILLNEED",
[4] = "DONTNEED",
[8] = "FREE",
[9] = "REMOVE",
[10] = "DONTFORK",
[11] = "DOFORK",
$
Till then, add support for this the old way.
Also it has to be ifdef'ed, because arches like mips still don't define
it. The proper solution will be to have per-arch tables for these
values to support cross-analysis.

The syzbot hit KASAN bug in perf_callchain_store having the entry stored
behind the allocated bounds [1].
We miss the sample_max_stack check for the initial event that allocates
callchain buffers. This missing check allows to create an event with
sample_max_stack value bigger than the global sysctl maximum:
# sysctl -a | grep perf_event_max_stack
kernel.perf_event_max_stack = 127
# perf record -vv -C 1 -e cycles/max-stack=256/ kill
...
perf_event_attr:
size 112
...
sample_max_stack 256
------------------------------------------------------------
sys_perf_event_open: pid -1 cpu 1 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 4
Note the '-C 1', which forces perf record to create just single event.
Otherwise it opens event for every cpu, then the sample_max_stack check
fails on the second event and all's fine.
The fix is to run the sample_max_stack check also for the first event
with callchains.

'perf list' with flags -d and -v print a description (-d) or a very
verbose explanation (-v) of CPU specific counter events. These
descriptions are provided with the json files in directory
pmu-events/arch/s390/*.json.
Display of these descriptions on s390 requires the corresponding json
files.
On s390 this does not work because function is_pmu_core() does not
detect the s390 directory name where the CPU specific events are listed.
On x86 it is:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu
whereas on s390 it is:
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpum_cf
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpum_sf
Fix this by adding s390 directory name testing to function
is_pmu_core(). This is the same approach as taken for the ARM platform.

This warning message is not very helpful, as the return value should
already show information about the error. Also, this message will
spam dmesg if the user space does testing in a loop, like:
for x in {0..5}
do
echo p:xx xx+$x >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent
Pull tooling improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
perf annotate fixes and improvements:
- Allow showing offsets in more than just jump targets, use the new
'O' hotkey in the TUI, config ~/.perfconfig annotate.offset_level
for it and for --stdio2 (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Use the resolved variable names from objdump disassembled lines to
make them more compact, just like was already done for some instructions,
like "mov", this eventually will be done more generally, but lets now add
some more to the existing mechanism (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
perf record fixes:
- Change warning for missing topology sysfs entry to debug, as not all
architectures have those files, s390 being one of those (Thomas Richter)
perf sched fixes:
- Fix -g/--call-graph documentation (Takuya Yamamoto)
perf stat:
- Enable 1ms interval for printing event counters values in (Alexey Budankov)
perf test fixes:
- Run dwarf unwind on arm32 (Kim Phillips)
- Remove unused ptrace.h include from LLVM test, sidesteping older
clang's lack of support for some asm constructs (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
perf version fixes:
- Do not print info about HAVE_LIBAUDIT_SUPPORT in 'perf version --build-options'
when HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT is true, as libaudit won't be used in that
case, print info about syscall_table support instead (Jin Yao)
Build system fixes:
- Use HAVE_..._SUPPORT used consistently (Jin Yao)
- Restore READ_ONCE() C++ compatibility in tools/include (Mark Rutland)
- Give hints about package names needed to build jvmti (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Pull SCSI fixes from James Bottomley:
"This is a set of minor (and safe changes) that didn't make the initial
pull request plus some bug fixes.
The status handling code is actually a running regression from the
previous merge window which had an incomplete fix (now reverted) and
most of the remaining bug fixes are for problems older than the
current merge window"
[ Side note: this merge also takes the base kernel git repository to 6+
million objects for the first time. Technically we hit it a couple of
merges ago already if you count all the tag objects, but now it
reaches 6M+ objects reachable from HEAD.
I was joking around that that's when I should switch to 5.0, because
3.0 happened at the 2M mark, and 4.0 happened at 4M objects. But
probably not, even if numerology is about as good a reason as any.

- Make affinity spreading smarter to avoid issues on systems which
claim to have hotpluggable CPUs while in fact they can't hotplug
anything.
So instead of trying to spread the vectors (and thereby the
associated device queues) to all possibe CPUs, spread them on all
present CPUs first. If there are left over vectors after that first
step they are spread among the possible, but not present CPUs which
keeps the code backwards compatible for virtual decives and NVME
which allocate a queue per possible CPU, but makes the spreading
smarter for devices which have less queues than possible or present
CPUs.

The code to verify the new kernels sha digest is applicable for all
architectures. Move it to common code.
One problem is the string.c implementation on x86. Currently sha256
includes x86/boot/string.h which defines memcpy and memset to be gcc
builtins. By moving the sha256 implementation to common code and
changing the include to linux/string.h both functions are no longer
defined. Thus definitions have to be provided in x86/purgatory/string.c

For s390 new kernels are loaded to fixed addresses in memory before they
are booted. With the current code this is a problem as it assumes the
kernel will be loaded to an 'arbitrary' address. In particular,
kexec_locate_mem_hole searches for a large enough memory region and sets
the load address (kexec_bufer->mem) to it.
Luckily there is a simple workaround for this problem. By returning 1
in arch_kexec_walk_mem, kexec_locate_mem_hole is turned off. This
allows the architecture to set kbuf->mem by hand. While the trick works
fine for the kernel it does not for the purgatory as here the
architectures don't have access to its kexec_buffer.
Give architectures access to the purgatories kexec_buffer by changing
kexec_load_purgatory to take a pointer to it. With this change
architectures have access to the buffer and can edit it as they need.
A nice side effect of this change is that we can get rid of the
purgatory_info->purgatory_load_address field. As now the information
stored there can directly be accessed from kbuf->mem.

The current code uses the sh_offset field in purgatory_info->sechdrs to
store a pointer to the current load address of the section. Depending
whether the section will be loaded or not this is either a pointer into
purgatory_info->purgatory_buf or kexec_purgatory. This is not only a
violation of the ELF standard but also makes the code very hard to
understand as you cannot tell if the memory you are using is read-only
or not.
Remove this misuse and store the offset of the section in
pugaroty_info->purgatory_buf in sh_offset.

To update the entry point there is an extra loop over all section
headers although this can be done in the main loop. So move it there
and eliminate the extra loop and variable to store the 'entry section
index'.
Also, in the main loop, move the usual case, i.e. non-bss section, out
of the extra if-block.

When inspecting __kexec_load_purgatory you find that it has two tasks
1) setting up the kexec_buffer for the new kernel and,
2) setting up pi->sechdrs for the final load address.
The two tasks are independent of each other. To improve readability
split up __kexec_load_purgatory into two functions, one for each task,
and call them directly from kexec_load_purgatory.

When the relocations are applied to the purgatory only the section the
relocations are applied to is writable. The other sections, i.e. the
symtab and .rel/.rela, are in read-only kexec_purgatory. Highlight this
by marking the corresponding variables as 'const'.
While at it also change the signatures of arch_kexec_apply_relocations* to
take section pointers instead of just the index of the relocation section.
This removes the second lookup and sanity check of the sections in arch
code.

The stripped purgatory does not contain a symtab. So when looking for
symbols this is done in read-only kexec_purgatory. Highlight this by
marking the corresponding variables as 'const'.

The kexec_purgatory buffer is read-only. Thus all pointers into
kexec_purgatory are read-only, too. Point this out by explicitly
marking purgatory_info->ehdr as 'const' and update the comments in
purgatory_info.

Before the purgatory is loaded several checks are done whether the ELF
file in kexec_purgatory is valid or not. These checks are incomplete.
For example they don't check for the total size of the sections defined
in the section header table or if the entry point actually points into
the purgatory.
On the other hand the purgatory, although an ELF file on its own, is
part of the kernel. Thus not trusting the purgatory means not trusting
the kernel build itself.
So remove all validity checks on the purgatory and just trust the kernel
build.

Patch series "kexec_file: Clean up purgatory load", v2.
Following the discussion with Dave and AKASHI, here are the common code
patches extracted from my recent patch set (Add kexec_file_load support
to s390) [1]. The patches were extracted to allow upstream integration
together with AKASHI's common code patches before the arch code gets
adjusted to the new base.
The reason for this series is to prepare common code for adding
kexec_file_load to s390 as well as cleaning up the mis-use of the
sh_offset field during purgatory load. In detail this series contains:
Patch #1&2: Minor cleanups/fixes.
Patch #3-9: Clean up the purgatory load/relocation code. Especially
remove the mis-use of the purgatory_info->sechdrs->sh_offset field,
currently holding a pointer into either kexec_purgatory (ro) or
purgatory_buf (rw) depending on the section. With these patches the
section address will be calculated verbosely and sh_offset will contain
the offset of the section in the stripped purgatory binary
(purgatory_buf).
Patch #10: Allows architectures to set the purgatory load address. This
patch is important for s390 as the kernel and purgatory have to be
loaded to fixed addresses. In current code this is impossible as the
purgatory load is opaque to the architecture.
Patch #11: Moves x86 purgatories sha implementation to common lib/
directory to allow reuse in other architectures.
This patch (of 11)
When building the kernel with CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE enabled gcc prints a
compile warning multiple times.
In file included from <path>/linux/init/initramfs.c:526:0:
<path>/include/linux/kexec.h:120:9: warning: `struct kimage' declared inside parameter list [enabled by default]
unsigned long cmdline_len);
^
This is because the typedefs for kexec_file_load uses struct kimage
before it is declared. Fix this by simply forward declaring struct
kimage.

In the previous patches, commonly-used routines, exclude_mem_range() and
prepare_elf64_headers(), were carved out. Now place them in kexec
common code. A prefix "crash_" is given to each of their names to avoid
possible name collisions.
