<id>urn:sha1:74671ea542bedc00cfac73e865c28ebde962d0a6</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 80f62589fa52f530cffc50e78c0b5a2ae572d61e upstream.

When the jump instruction is displayed at the row 0 in annotate view,
the arrow is broken. An example:

 16.86 │   ┌──je     82
  0.01 │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm0
       │      movsd  0x8(%rsp),%xmm4
       │      movsd  0x8(%rsp),%xmm1
       │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm3
       │      divsd  %xmm4,%xmm0
       │      divsd  %xmm3,%xmm1
       │      movsd  (%rsp),%xmm2
       │      addsd  %xmm1,%xmm0
       │      addsd  %xmm2,%xmm0
       │      movsd  %xmm0,(%rsp)
       │82:   sub    $0x1,%ebx
 83.03 │    ↑ jne    38
       │      add    $0x10,%rsp
       │      xor    %eax,%eax
       │      pop    %rbx
       │    ← retq

The patch increments the row number before checking with 0.

<content type='text'>
commit 6a558f12dbe85437acbdec5e149ea07b5554eced upstream.

Sometimes a FUP packet is associated with a TSX transaction and a flag is
set to indicate that. Ensure that flag is cleared on any error condition
because at that point the decoder can no longer assume it is correct.

commit 622b7a47b843c78626f40c1d1aeef8483383fba2 upstream.

The decoder will try to use branch packets to find an IP to start decoding
or to recover from errors. Currently the FUP packet is used only in the
case of an overflow, however there is no reason for that to be a special
case. So just use FUP always when scanning for an IP.

<title>perf intel-pt: Ensure never to set 'last_ip' when packet 'count' is zero</title>

commit f952eaceb089b691eba7c4e13686e742a8f26bf5 upstream.

Intel PT uses IP compression based on the last IP. For decoding purposes,
'last IP' is not updated when a branch target has been suppressed, which is
indicated by IPBytes == 0. IPBytes is stored in the packet 'count', so
ensure never to set 'last_ip' when packet 'count' is zero.

commit ee14ac0ef6827cd6f9a572cc83dd0191ea17812c upstream.

Intel PT uses IP compression based on the last IP. For decoding
purposes, 'last IP' is considered to be reset to zero whenever there is
a synchronization packet (PSB). The decoder wasn't doing that, and was
treating the zero value to mean that there was no last IP, whereas
compression can be done against the zero value. Fix by setting last_ip
to zero when a PSB is received and keep track of have_last_ip.

commit 3f04d98e972b59706bd43d6cc75efac91f8fba50 upstream.

The decoder uses its current timestamp in samples. Usually that is a
timestamp that has already passed, but in some cases it is a timestamp
for a branch that the decoder is walking towards, and consequently
hasn't reached. Improve that situation by using the pkt_state to
determine when to use the current or previous timestamp.

The reason is that with kernel.kptr_restrict=2, we don't get
the symbol from machine__get_running_kernel_start, which we
want to use in maps__set_kallsyms_ref_reloc_sym and we crash.

Check the symbol name value before calling
maps__set_kallsyms_ref_reloc_sym() and succeed without ref_reloc_sym
being set. It's safe because we check its existence before we use it.
