commit 4921e320244e099bdf237fd10428594ce5f5b87d upstream.

The commit '2814eb0 perf kmem: Remove die() calls' disabled 'perf kmem'
command for machines without numa support. It made the command fail if
'/sys/devices/system/node' dir wasn't found.

Skipping the numa based initialization in case the directory is not
found and continue execution.

<title>mnt: Add tests for unprivileged remount cases that have found to be faulty</title>

commit db181ce011e3c033328608299cd6fac06ea50130 upstream.

Kenton Varda &lt;kenton@sandstorm.io&gt; discovered that by remounting a
read-only bind mount read-only in a user namespace the
MNT_LOCK_READONLY bit would be cleared, allowing an unprivileged user
to the remount a read-only mount read-write.

Upon review of the code in remount it was discovered that the code allowed
nosuid, noexec, and nodev to be cleared.  It was also discovered that
the code was allowing the per mount atime flags to be changed.

The first naive patch to fix these issues contained the flaw that using
default atime settings when remounting a filesystem could be disallowed.

To avoid this problems in the future add tests to ensure unprivileged
remounts are succeeding and failing at the appropriate times.

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>

<id>urn:sha1:0e2d79ded075f612ba63178c6eaefe6ee7d8dd75</id>
<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>turbostat: Don't put unprocessed uapi headers in the include path</title>

<id>urn:sha1:73cb6cf10ef0ce902cb13b5bcb2c9c653e9a7798</id>
<content type='text'>
commit b731f3119de57144e16c19fd593b8daeb637843e upstream.

turbostat's Makefile puts arch/x86/include/uapi/ in the include path, so
that it can include &lt;asm/msr.h&gt; from it.  It isn't in general safe to
include even uapi headers directly from the kernel tree without
processing them through scripts/headers_install.sh, but asm/msr.h
happens to work.

However, that include path can break with some versions of system
headers, by overriding some system headers with the unprocessed versions
directly from the kernel source.  For instance:

In file included from /build/x86-generic/usr/include/bits/sigcontext.h:28:0,
                 from /build/x86-generic/usr/include/signal.h:339,
                 from /build/x86-generic/usr/include/sys/wait.h:31,
                 from turbostat.c:27:
../../../../arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/sigcontext.h:4:28: fatal error: linux/compiler.h: No such file or directory

This occurs because the system bits/sigcontext.h on that build system
includes &lt;asm/sigcontext.h&gt;, and asm/sigcontext.h in the kernel source
includes &lt;linux/compiler.h&gt;, which scripts/headers_install.sh would have
filtered out.

Since turbostat really only wants a single header, just include that one
header rather than putting an entire directory of kernel headers on the
include path.

In the process, switch from msr.h to msr-index.h, since turbostat just
wants the MSR numbers.

<title>perf kvm: Fix kvm report without guestmount.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6157969f1536f6ff772c9c3719befbb7d46261b9</id>
<content type='text'>
commit ad85ace07a05062ef6b59c35a5e80b6eaee1eee6 upstream.

Currently, if we use perf kvm --guestkallsyms --guestmodules report, we
can not get the perf information from perf data file. All sample are
shown as unknown.

Reproducing steps:
	# perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/kallsyms --guestmodules /tmp/modules record -a sleep 1
	[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
	[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.624 MB perf.data.guest (~27260 samples) ]
	# perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/kallsyms --guestmodules /tmp/modules report |grep %
	   100.00%  [guest/6471]  [unknown]         [g] 0xffffffff8164f330

This bug was introduced by 207b57926 (perf kvm: Fix regression with guest machine creation).
In original code, it uses perf_session__find_machine(), it means we deliver symbol to machine
which has the same pid, if no machine found, deliver it to *default* guest. But if we use
perf_session__findnew_machine() here, if no machine was found, new machine with pid will be built
and added. Then the default guest which with pid == 0 will never get a symbol.

And because the new machine initialized here has no kernel map created, the symbol delivered to
it will be marked as "unknown".

This patch here is to revert commit 207b57926 and fix the SEGFAULT bug in another way.

Verification steps:
	# ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /home/kallsyms --guestmodules /home/modules record -a sleep 1
	[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
	[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.651 MB perf.data.guest (~28437 samples) ]
	# ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /home/kallsyms --guestmodules /home/modules report |grep %
	    22.64%    :6471  [guest.kernel.kallsyms]  [g] update_rq_clock.part.70
	    19.99%    :6471  [guest.kernel.kallsyms]  [g] d_free
	    18.46%    :6471  [guest.kernel.kallsyms]  [g] bio_phys_segments
	    16.25%    :6471  [guest.kernel.kallsyms]  [g] dequeue_task
	    12.78%    :6471  [guest.kernel.kallsyms]  [g] __switch_to
	     7.91%    :6471  [guest.kernel.kallsyms]  [g] scheduler_tick
	     1.75%    :6471  [guest.kernel.kallsyms]  [g] native_apic_mem_write
	     0.21%    :6471  [guest.kernel.kallsyms]  [g] apic_timer_interrupt

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 53805eca3d89b095062c11a6798689bb0af09216 upstream.

The 4fb71074a570 (perf ui/hist: Consolidate hpp helpers) cset introduced
a cast of percent_color_snprintf to a function pointer type with
varargs.  Change percent_color_snprintf to be variadic and remove the
cast.

The symptom of this was all percentages being reported as 0.00% in perf
report --stdio output on the armhf arch.
