Before this patch perf panics if kptr_restrict is set to 1 and perf is
owned by root with suid set:
$ whoami
wangnan
$ ls -l ./perf
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 19781908 Sep 21 19:29 /home/wangnan/perf
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
1
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid
-1
$ ./perf record -a
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
$
The reason is that perf assumes it is allowed to read kptr from
/proc/kallsyms when euid is root, but in fact the kernel doesn't allow
reading kptr when euid and uid do not match with each other:
$ cp /bin/cat .
$ sudo chown root:root ./cat
$ sudo chmod u+s ./cat
$ cat /proc/kallsyms | grep do_fork
0000000000000000 T _do_fork <--- kptr is hidden even euid is root
$ sudo cat /proc/kallsyms | grep do_fork
ffffffff81080230 T _do_fork
See lib/vsprintf.c for kernel side code.
This patch fixes this problem by checking both uid and euid.

On ubuntu the internal kernel version code is different from what can
be retrived from uname:
$ uname -r
4.4.0-47-generic
$ cat /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 263192
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))
$ cat /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/generated/utsrelease.h
#define UTS_RELEASE "4.4.0-47-generic"
#define UTS_UBUNTU_RELEASE_ABI 47
$ cat /proc/version_signature
Ubuntu 4.4.0-47.68-generic 4.4.24
The macro LINUX_VERSION_CODE is set to 4.4.24 (263192 == 0x40418), but
`uname -r` reports 4.4.0.
This mismatch causes LINUX_VERSION_CODE macro passed to BPF script become
an incorrect value, results in magic failure in BPF loading:
$ sudo ./buildperf/perf record -e ./tools/perf/tests/bpf-script-example.c ls
event syntax error: './tools/perf/tests/bpf-script-example.c'
\___ Failed to load program for unknown reason
According to Ubuntu document (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/FAQ), the
correct kernel version can be retrived through /proc/version_signature, which
is ubuntu specific.
This patch checks the existance of /proc/version_signature, and returns
version number through parsing this file instead of uname. Version string
is untouched (value returns from uname) because `uname -r` is required
to be consistence with path of kbuild directory in /lib/module.

By default it shows the individual schedule events, including the wait

Improvements:

ownership check for root users, for instance, just like the other
tools (Jiri Olsa)
- Allow sorting cachelines by total number of HITMs, in addition to
local and remote numbers (Jiri Olsa)
Fixes:
- Make sure errors aren't suppressed by the TUI reset at the end of
a 'perf c2c report' session (Jiri Olsa)
Infrastructure changes:
- Initial work on having the annotate code better support multiple
architectures, including the ability to cross-annotate, i.e. to
annotate perf.data files collected on an ARM system on a x86_64
workstation (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Ravi Bangoria, Kim Phillips)
- Use USECS_PER_SEC instead of hard coded number in libtraceevent (Steven Rostedt)
- Add retrieval of preempt count and latency flags in libtraceevent (Steven Rostedt)

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps
for the Thunder driver.
That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending
a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an
error.
Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those
are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically.
But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has
to stay.
However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original
MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if
an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change.
Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original
MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue.

least one system (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix cross-compiled builds of ACPI tools that stopped working after
a recent cleanup related to the handling of header files in ACPICA

ARM64 hardware expects 64bit aligned address for watchpoint invocation.
However, it provides byte selection method to select any number of
consecutive byte set within the range of 1-8.
This patch adds support to test all such byte selection option for
different memory write sizes.
Patch also adds a test for handling the case when the cpu does not
report an address which exactly matches one of the regions we have
been watching (which is a situation permitted by the spec if an
instruction accesses both watched and unwatched regions). The test
was failing on a MSM8996pro before this patch series and is
passing now.

We only support breakpoint/watchpoint of length 1, 2, 4 and 8. If we can
support other length as well, then user may watch more data with less
number of watchpoints (provided hardware supports it). For example: if we
have to watch only 4th, 5th and 6th byte from a 64 bit aligned address, we
will have to use two slots to implement it currently. One slot will watch a
half word at offset 4 and other a byte at offset 6. If we can have a
watchpoint of length 3 then we can watch it with single slot as well.
ARM64 hardware does support such functionality, therefore adding these new
definitions in generic layer.
