      perf: Fix capabilities bitfield compatibility in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page' · fa731587
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page::
cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially
fixed by:

  860f085b ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'")

The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released
officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is
not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the
field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used
on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel.

To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained,
by iterating the ABI the following way:

 - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not
   confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable
   to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit.

 - Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new
   libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero
   without having to check the kernel version.

 - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality:

	cap_user_rdpmc		: 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */
	cap_user_time		: 1, /* The time_* fields are used */
	cap_user_time_zero	: 1, /* The time_zero field is used */

 - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the
   old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it
   accidentally with old assumptions.

The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it
will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well.

Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by
Adrian Hunter.

      Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 * Check for SIGINT in more loops, allowing tools such as 'perf report' to
   react faster to Ctrl+C, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

 * Fix objdump line parsing offset validation in the annotate code,
   from Adrian Hunter.

 * Fix buildid cache handling of kallsyms with kcore, from Adrian Hunter.

 * Fix compile with libelf without get_phdrnum, from Adrian Hunter.

 * Sharpen the libaudit dependencies test, refusing to build with older
   libraries that doesn't have all the functions used by 'perf trace", fix
   from Ingo Molnar.

 * Fill in new definitions for madvise()/mmap() flags to fix the build in
   older systems, from Ingo Molnar.

 * Fix old GCC build error in older systems in the kallsyms parsing code in
   trace-event-parse.c, from Ingo Molnar.

 * Ignore DWARF declaration tags, allowing, for instance, that the

     $ perf probe -L getname

   command succeeds in showing the source code for the 'getname' kernel
   function, telling in which lines probes can be inserted, fix from
   Masami Hiramatsu.

 * Fix linux/magic.h related build breakage in some systems, fix from
   Vinson Lee.

      tools lib lk: Uninclude linux/magic.h in debugfs.c · ce7eebe5
      Vinson Lee authored 
      The compilation only looks for linux/magic.h from the default include
paths, which does not include the source tree. This results in a build
error if linux/magic.h is not available or not installed.

For example, this build error occurs on CentOS 5.

$ make -C tools/lib/lk V=1
[...]

-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 debugfs.c
debugfs.c:8:25: error: linux/magic.h: No such file or directory

The only symbol from linux/magic.h needed by debugfs.c is DEBUGFS_MAGIC,
and that is already defined in debugfs.h. linux/magic.h isn't providing
any extra symbols and can unincluded. This is similar to the approach by
perf, which has its own magic.h wrapper at
tools/perf/util/include/linux/magic.h

      perf tools: Fix buildid cache handling of kallsyms with kcore · 5b6a42fc
      Adrian Hunter authored 
      When kallsyms is used with kcore the dso long_name becomes the kcore
file name.  That prevents the buildid cache from caching kallsyms.
(There is no support at present for caching kcore).  Fix by changing it
so that the kallsyms name is used in that case instead.

      perf annotate: Fix objdump line parsing offset validation · 886b37ba
      Adrian Hunter authored 
      When parsing lines from objdump a line containing source code starting
with a numeric label is mistaken for a line of disassembly starting with
a memory address.

Current validation fails to recognise that the "memory address" is out
of range and calculates an invalid offset which later causes this
segfault:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
