commit b5bf1733d6a391c4e90ea8f8468d83023be74a2a upstream.

For cases where implicit fall through case labels are intended,
to let us inform that to gcc &gt;= 7:

    CC       /tmp/build/perf/util/string.o
  util/string.c: In function 'perf_atoll':
  util/string.c:22:7: error: this statement may fall through [-Werror=implicit-fallthrough=]
      if (*p)
         ^
  util/string.c:24:3: note: here
     case '\0':
     ^~~~

So we introduce:

  #define __fallthrough __attribute__ ((fallthrough))

And use it in such cases.

<title>give up on gcc ilog2() constant optimizations</title>

<id>urn:sha1:85f687708c811563df33c70c9cec9b5c2733acf8</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 474c90156c8dcc2fa815e6716cc9394d7930cb9c upstream.

gcc-7 has an "optimization" pass that completely screws up, and
generates the code expansion for the (impossible) case of calling
ilog2() with a zero constant, even when the code gcc compiles does not
actually have a zero constant.

And we try to generate a compile-time error for anybody doing ilog2() on
a constant where that doesn't make sense (be it zero or negative).  So
now gcc7 will fail the build due to our sanity checking, because it
created that constant-zero case that didn't actually exist in the source
code.

There's a whole long discussion on the kernel mailing about how to work
around this gcc bug.  The gcc people themselevs have discussed their
"feature" in

   https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=72785

but it's all water under the bridge, because while it looked at one
point like it would be solved by the time gcc7 was released, that was
not to be.

So now we have to deal with this compiler braindamage.

And the only simple approach seems to be to just delete the code that
tries to warn about bad uses of ilog2().

So now "ilog2()" will just return 0 not just for the value 1, but for
any non-positive value too.

It's not like I can recall anybody having ever actually tried to use
this function on any invalid value, but maybe the sanity check just
meant that such code never made it out in public.

Commit 747ea55e4f78 ("bpf: fix bpf_skb_in_cgroup helper naming") renames
BPF_FUNC_skb_in_cgroup to bpf_skb_under_cgroup, triggering this warning
while building perf:

  Warning: tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h differs from kernel

Update the copy to ack that, no changes needed, as
BPF_FUNC_skb_in_cgroup isn't used so far.

<content type='text'>
Some mmap related macros have different values for different
architectures. This patch introduces uapi mman.h for each
architectures.

Three headers are cloned from kernel include to tools/include:

 tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h
 tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman.h
 tools/include/uapi/linux/mman.h

The main part of this patch is generated by following script:

 macros=`cat $0 | awk 'V==1 {print}; /^# start macro list/ {V=1}'`
 for arch in `ls tools/arch`
 do
   [ -d tools/arch/$arch/include/uapi/asm ] || mkdir -p tools/arch/$arch/include/uapi/asm
   src=arch/$arch/include/uapi/asm/mman.h
   target=tools/arch/$arch/include/uapi/asm/mman.h
   guard="TOOLS_ARCH_"`echo $arch | awk '{print toupper($0)}'`_UAPI_ASM_MMAN_FIX_H
   echo '#ifndef '$guard &gt; $target
   echo '#define '$guard &gt;&gt; $target

   [ -f $src ] &amp;&amp;
   for m in $macros
   do
     if grep '#define[ \t]*'$m $src &gt; /dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1
     then
       grep -h '#define[ \t]*'$m $src | sed 's/[ \t]*\/\*.*$//g' &gt;&gt; $target
     fi
   done

   if [ -f $src ]
   then
      grep '#include &lt;asm-generic' $src &gt;&gt; $target
   else
      echo "#include &lt;asm-generic/mman.h&gt;" &gt;&gt; $target
   fi
   echo '#endif' &gt;&gt; $target
   echo "$target"
 done

 exit 0

Directly accessing kernel files is not allowed anymore.  As such making
file coresight-pmu.h accessible by the perf tools and complain if this
copy strays from the one found in the main kernel tree.

And remove it from tools/perf/{perf,util}.h, making code that needs
these macros to include linux/time64.h instead, to match how this is
used in the kernel sources.

perf tools build in recent kernels spews splat when cross compiling with uClibc:

|   CC       util/alias.o
| In file included from tools/perf/util/../ui/../util/cache.h:8:0,
|                 from tools/perf/util/../ui/helpline.h:7,

|                 from arch/common.c:3:

|  extern size_t strlcpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t size);
               ^
This is after commit 61a6445e463a31 ("tools lib: Guard the strlcpy() header with
__GLIBC__").

The problem is uClibc also defines __GLIBC__ for exported headers for
applications. So add that specific check to not trip for uClibc.

The way we're using kernel headers in tools/ now, with a copy that is
made to the same path prefixed by "tools/" plus checking if that copy
got stale, i.e. if the kernel counterpart changed, helps in keeping
track with new features that may be useful for tools to exploit.

For instance, looking at all the changes to bpf.h since it was last
copied to tools/include brings this to toolers' attention:

Need to investigate this one to check how to run a program via perf, setting up
a BPF event, that will take advantage of the way perf already calls clang/LLVM,
sets up the event and runs the workload in a single command line, helping in
debugging such semi cooperative programs:

  96ae52279594 ("bpf: Add bpf_probe_write_user BPF helper to be called in tracers")

This one needs further investigation about using the feature it improves
in 'perf trace' to do some tcpdumpin' mixed with syscalls, tracepoints,
probe points, callgraphs, etc:

  555c8a8623a3 ("bpf: avoid stack copy and use skb ctx for event output")

Add tracing just packets that are related to some container to that mix:

  4a482f34afcc ("cgroup: bpf: Add bpf_skb_in_cgroup_proto")
  4ed8ec521ed5 ("cgroup: bpf: Add BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGROUP_ARRAY")

Definetely needs to have example programs accessing task_struct from a bpf proggie
started from 'perf trace':

  606274c5abd8 ("bpf: introduce bpf_get_current_task() helper")

Core networking related, XDP:

  6ce96ca348a9 ("bpf: add XDP_TX xdp_action for direct forwarding")
  6a773a15a1e8 ("bpf: add XDP prog type for early driver filter")
  13c5c240f789 ("bpf: add bpf_get_hash_recalc helper")
  d2485c4242a8 ("bpf: add bpf_skb_change_type helper")
  6578171a7ff0 ("bpf: add bpf_skb_change_proto helper")

Changes detected by the tools build system:

  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build
  Warning: tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h differs from kernel
