      Merge tag 'perf-tools-fixes-for-v5.14-2021-08-01' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux

Pull perf tools fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 - Revert "perf map: Fix dso->nsinfo refcounting", this makes 'perf top'
   abort, uncovering a design flaw on how namespace information is kept.
   The fix for that is more than we can do right now, leave it for the
   next merge window.

 - Split --dump-raw-trace by AUX records for ARM's CoreSight, fixing up
   the decoding of some records.

 - Fix PMU alias matching.

Thanks to James Clark and John Garry for these fixes.

      pipe: make pipe writes always wake up readers · 3a34b13a
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Since commit 1b6b26ae ("pipe: fix and clarify pipe write wakeup
logic") we have sanitized the pipe write logic, and would only try to
wake up readers if they needed it.

In particular, if the pipe already had data in it before the write,
there was no point in trying to wake up a reader, since any existing
readers must have been aware of the pre-existing data already.  Doing
extraneous wakeups will only cause potential thundering herd problems.

However, it turns out that some Android libraries have misused the EPOLL
interface, and expected "edge triggered" be to "any new write will
trigger it".  Even if there was no edge in sight.

Quoting Sandeep Patil:
 "The commit 1b6b26ae ('pipe: fix and clarify pipe write wakeup
  logic') changed pipe write logic to wakeup readers only if the pipe
  was empty at the time of write. However, there are libraries that
  relied upon the older behavior for notification scheme similar to
  what's described in [1]

  One such library 'realm-core'[2] is used by numerous Android
  applications. The library uses a similar notification mechanism as GNU
  Make but it never drains the pipe until it is full. When Android moved
  to v5.10 kernel, all applications using this library stopped working.

  The library has since been fixed[3] but it will be a while before all
  applications incorporate the updated library"

Our regression rule for the kernel is that if applications break from
new behavior, it's a regression, even if it was because the application
did something patently wrong.  Also note the original report [4] by
Michal Kerrisk about a test for this epoll behavior - but at that point
we didn't know of any actual broken use case.

So add the extraneous wakeup, to approximate the old behavior.

[ I say "approximate", because the exact old behavior was to do a wakeup
  not for each write(), but for each pipe buffer chunk that was filled
  in. The behavior introduced by this change is not that - this is just
  "every write will cause a wakeup, whether necessary or not", which
  seems to be sufficient for the broken library use. ]

It's worth noting that this adds the extraneous wakeup only for the
write side, while the read side still considers the "edge" to be purely
about reading enough from the pipe to allow further writes.

See commit f467a6a6 ("pipe: fix and clarify pipe read wakeup logic")
for the pipe read case, which remains that "only wake up if the pipe was
full, and we read something from it".
