commit 106b816cb4 upstream.
At the end of process_filter(), collapse_tree() was changed to update
the parg parameter, but the reassignment after the call wasn't removed.
What happens is that the "current_op" gets modified and freed and parg
is assigned to the new allocated argument. But after the call to
collapse_tree(), parg is assigned again to the just freed "current_op",
and this causes the tool to crash.
The current_op variable must also be assigned to NULL in case of error,
otherwise it will cause it to be free()ed twice.

commit 9098903555 upstream.
The 4b3a321223 ("perf hists browser: Support flat callchains") commit
over-aggressively tried to optimize callchain_node__init_have_children().
That lead to --tui mode not allowing to expand call chain elements if a
call chain element had only one parent. That's why --inverted callgraphs
looked halfway sane, but plain ones didn't.
Revert that individual optimization, it wasn't really related to the
rest of the commit.

commit 616df645d7 upstream.
Remove the union in evsel so that the database id and priv pointer can
be used simultainously without conflicting and crashing.
Detailed Description for the fixed bug follows:
perf script crashes with a segmentation fault on user space tool version
4.5.rc7.ge2857b when using the python database export API. It works
properly in 4.4 and prior versions.
the crash fist appeared in:

How to reproduce the bug:
Remove any temporary files left over from a previous crash (if you have
already attemped to reproduce the bug):
$ rm -r test_db-perf-data
$ dropdb test_db
$ perf record timeout 1 yes >/dev/null
$ perf script -s scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py test_db

commit 67d5268908 upstream.
The util/python-ext-sources file contains source files required to build
the python extension relative to $(srctree)/tools/perf,
Such a file path $(FILE).c is handed over to the python extension build
system, which builds the final object in the
$(PYTHON_EXTBUILD)/tmp/$(FILE).o path.
After the build is done all files from $(PYTHON_EXTBUILD)lib/ are
carried as the result binaries.
Above system fails when we add source file relative to ../lib, which we
do for:
../lib/bitmap.c
../lib/find_bit.c
../lib/hweight.c
../lib/rbtree.c
All above objects will be built like:
$(PYTHON_EXTBUILD)/tmp/../lib/bitmap.c
$(PYTHON_EXTBUILD)/tmp/../lib/find_bit.c
$(PYTHON_EXTBUILD)/tmp/../lib/hweight.c
$(PYTHON_EXTBUILD)/tmp/../lib/rbtree.c
which accidentally happens to be final library path:
$(PYTHON_EXTBUILD)/lib/
Changing setup.py to pass full paths of source files to Extension build
class and thus keep all built objects under $(PYTHON_EXTBUILD)tmp
directory.

commit 940db6dcd3 upstream.
When an error happens during alias parsing currently the complete
parsing of all attributes of the PMU is stopped. This is breaks old perf
on a newer kernel that may have not-yet-know alias attributes (such as
.scale or .per-pkg).
Continue when some attribute is unparseable.
This is IMHO a stable candidate and should be backported to older
versions to avoid problems with newer kernels.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
- Two fixes for compatibility with the ACPI 6.1 specification.
Without these fixes multi-interface DIMMs will fail to be probed, and
address range scrub commands to find memory errors will give results
that the kernel will mis-interpret. For multi-interface DIMMs Linux
will accept either the original 6.0 implementation or 6.1.
For address range scrub we'll only support 6.1 since ACPI formalized
this DSM differently than the original example [1] implemented in
v4.2. The expectation is that production systems will only ever ship
the ACPI 6.1 address range scrub command definition.
- The wider async address range scrub work targeting 4.6 discovered
that the original synchronous implementation in 4.5 is not sizing its
return buffer correctly.
- Arnd caught that my recent fix to the size of the pfn_t flags missed
updating the flags variable used in the pmem driver.
- Toshi found that we mishandle the memremap() return value in
devm_memremap().

"Two more small fixes.
One is by Yang Shi who added a READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() to the scan of the
stack made by the stack tracer. As the stack tracer scans the entire
kernel stack, KASAN triggers seeing it as a "stack out of bounds"
error. As the scan is looking at the contents of the stack from
parent functions. The NOCHECK() tells KASAN that this is done on
purpose, and is not some kind of stack overflow.
The second fix is to the ftrace selftests, to retrieve the PID of
executed commands from the shell with '$!' and not by parsing 'jobs'"

The ftracetest instance test used parsing of the "jobs" output to find the
pid of the subshell that is executed previously. But this is not portable to
all major shells that may run these tests. The proper way to get the pid of
the subshell is the shell command "$!". This will return the pid of the
previously executed command. Use that instead, otherwise the test does not
work in all environments.

* Prevent accidental deletion of EFI variables through efivarfs that

"rm -rf" is bricking some peoples' laptops because of variables being
used to store non-reinitializable firmware driver data that's required
to POST the hardware.
These are 100% bugs, and they need to be fixed, but in the mean time it
shouldn't be easy to *accidentally* brick machines.
We have to have delete working, and picking which variables do and don't
work for deletion is quite intractable, so instead make everything
immutable by default (except for a whitelist), and make tools that
aren't quite so broad-spectrum unset the immutable flag.

We broke interval data displays with commit:
3f416f22d1 ("perf stat: Do not clean event's private stats")
This commit removed stats cleaning, which is important for '-r' option
to carry counters data over the whole run. But it's necessary to clean
it for interval mode, otherwise the displayed value is avg of all
previous values.
Before:
$ perf stat -e cycles -a -I 1000 record
# time counts unit events
1.000240796 75,216,287 cycles
2.000512791 107,823,524 cycles
$ perf stat report
# time counts unit events
1.000240796 75,216,287 cycles
2.000512791 91,519,906 cycles
Now:
$ perf stat report
# time counts unit events
1.000240796 75,216,287 cycles
2.000512791 107,823,524 cycles
Notice the second value being bigger (91,.. < 107,..).
This could be easily verified by using perf script which displays raw
stat data:
$ perf script

'perf probe' through debuginfo__find_probes() in util/probe-finder.c
checks for the functions' frame descriptions in either .eh_frame section
of an ELF or the .debug_frame.
The check is based on whether either one of these sections is present.
Depending on distro, toolchain defaults, architetcutre, build flags,
etc., CFI might be found in either .eh_frame and/or .debug_frame.
Sometimes, it may happen that, .eh_frame, even if present, may not be
complete and may miss some descriptions.
Therefore, to be sure, to find the CFI covering an address we will
always have to investigate both if available.
For e.g., in powerpc, this may happen:
$ gcc -g bin.c -o bin
$ objdump --dwarf ./bin
<1><145>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<146> DW_AT_external : 1
<146> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x9e): main
<14a> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<14b> DW_AT_decl_line : 39
<14c> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<14c> DW_AT_type : <0x57>
<150> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x100007b8
If the .eh_frame and .debug_frame are checked for the same binary, we
will find that, .eh_frame (although present) doesn't contain a
description for "main" function.
But, .debug_frame has a description:
000000d8 00000024 00000000 FDE cie=00000000 pc=100007b8..10000838
DW_CFA_advance_loc: 16 to 100007c8
DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset: 144
DW_CFA_offset_extended_sf: r65 at cfa+16
...
Due to this (since, perf checks whether .eh_frame is present and goes on
searching for that address inside that frame), perf is unable to process
the probes:
# perf probe -x ./bin main
Failed to get call frame on 0x100007b8
Error: Failed to add events.
To avoid this issue, we need to check both the sections (.eh_frame and
.debug_frame), which is done in this patch.
Note that, we can always force everything into both .eh_frame and
.debug_frame by:

intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info() creates a pt->unknown_thread thread
that eventually needs to be freed by the last thread__put() on it, when
its refcount hits zero, which may happen in
intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info() error handling path and triggers the
following segfault, which would happen as well at intel_pt_free, when
tools using this intel_pt codebase frees up resources:
# perf record -I -e intel_pt/tsc=1,noretcomp=1/u /bin/ls

Samples for 'instructions:u' event do not have IREGS attribute set. Cannot print 'iregs' field.
intel_pt_synth_events: failed to synthesize 'instructions' event type
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
#
The problem is: there's a union in 'struct thread' combines a list_head
and a rb_node. The standard life cycle of a thread is: init rb_node in
the constructor, insert it into machine->threads rbtree using rb_node,
move it to machine->dead_threads using list_head, clean in the last
thread__put: list_del_init(&thread->node).
In the above command, it clean a thread before adding it into list,
causes the above segfault.
Since pt->unknown_thread will never live in an rbtree, initialize its
list node so that when list_del_init() is done on it we don't segfault.
After this patch:
# perf script -F event,comm,pid,tid,time,addr,ip,sym,dso,iregs

Intel PT attempts to find the sched:sched_switch tracepoint but that seg
faults if tracefs is not readable, because the error reporting structure
is null, as errors are not reported when automatically adding
tracepoints. Fix by checking before using.
Committer note:
This doesn't take place in a kernel that supports
perf_event_attr.context_switch, that is the default way that will be
used for tracking context switches, only in older kernels, like 4.2, in
a machine with Intel PT (e.g. Broadwell) for non-priviledged users.
Further info from a similar patch by Wang:
The error is in tracepoint_error: it assumes the 'e' parameter is valid.
However, there are many situation a parse_event() can be called without
parse_events_error. See result of
$ grep 'parse_events(.*NULL)' ./tools/perf/ -r'

Mel reported stddev reporting was broken due to following commit:
106a94a0f8 ("perf stat: Introduce read_counters function")
This commit merged interval and overall counters reading into single
read_counters function.
The old interval code cleaned the stddev data for some reason (it's
never displayed in interval mode) and the mentioned commit kept on
cleaning the stddev data in merged function, which resulted in the
stddev not being displayed.
Removing the wrong stddev data cleanup init_stats call.

This adds micro-benchmarks useful for tuning virtio ring layouts.
Three layouts are currently implemented:
- virtio 0.9 compatible one
- an experimental extension bypassing the ring index, polling ring
itself instead
- an experimental extension bypassing avail and used ring completely
Typical use:
sh run-on-all.sh perf stat -r 10 --log-fd 1 -- ./ring
It doesn't depend on the kernel directly, but it's handy
to have as much virtio stuff as possible in one tree.

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This includes fixes on top of the previous batch of PM+ACPI updates
and some new material as well.
From the new material perspective the most significant are the driver
core changes that should allow USB devices to stay suspended over
system suspend/resume cycles if they have been runtime-suspended
already beforehand. Apart from that, ACPICA is updated to upstream
revision 20160108 (cosmetic mostly, but including one fixup on top of
the previous ACPICA update) and there are some devfreq updates the
didn't make it before (due to timing).
A few recent regressions are fixed, most importantly in the cpuidle
menu governor and in the ACPI backlight driver and some x86 platform
drivers depending on it.
Some more bugs are fixed and cleanups are made on top of that.
Specifics:
- Modify the driver core and the USB subsystem to allow USB devices
to stay suspended over system suspend/resume cycles if they have
been runtime-suspended already beforehand and fix some bugs on top
of these changes (Tomeu Vizoso, Rafael Wysocki).
- Update ACPICA to upstream revision 20160108, including updates of
the ACPICA's copyright notices, a code fixup resulting from a
regression fix that was necessary in the upstream code only (the
regression fixed by it has never been present in Linux) and a
compiler warning fix (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng).
- Fix a recent regression in the cpuidle menu governor that broke it
on practically all architectures other than x86 and make a couple
of optimizations on top of that fix (Rafael Wysocki).
- Clean up the selection of cpuidle governors depending on whether or
not the kernel is configured for tickless systems (Jean Delvare).
- Revert a recent commit that introduced a regression in the ACPI
backlight driver, address the problem it attempted to fix in a
different way and revert one more cosmetic change depending on the
problematic commit (Hans de Goede).
- Add two more ACPI backlight quirks (Hans de Goede).
- Fix a few minor problems in the core devfreq code, clean it up a
bit and update the MAINTAINERS information related to it (Chanwoo
Choi, MyungJoo Ham).
- Improve an error message in the ACPI fan driver (Andy Lutomirski).
- Fix a recent build regression in the cpupower tool (Shreyas
Prabhu)"
