      perf tests: Fix dwarf unwind for stripped binaries · fdf7c49c
      Jiri Olsa authored
      When we strip the perf binary, dwarf unwind test stop
      to work. The reason is that strip will remove static
      function symbols, which we need to check for unwind.
      
      This change will keep this test working in cases where
      the global symbols are put into dynamic symbol table,
      which is the case on x86. It still won't work on powerpc.
      
      Making those 5 local functions global, and adding
      'test_dwarf_unwind__' to their names.
      
      Committer testing:

      kprobes: Propagate error from disarm_kprobe_ftrace() · 297f9233
      Jessica Yu authored
      Improve error handling when disarming ftrace-based kprobes. Like with
      arm_kprobe_ftrace(), propagate any errors from disarm_kprobe_ftrace() so
      that we do not disable/unregister kprobes that are still armed. In other
      words, unregister_kprobe() and disable_kprobe() should not report success
      if the kprobe could not be disarmed.
      
      disarm_all_kprobes() keeps its current behavior and attempts to
      disarm all kprobes. It returns the last encountered error and gives a
      warning if not all probes could be disarmed.
      
      This patch is based on Petr Mladek's original patchset (patches 2 and 3)
      back in 2015, which improved kprobes error handling, found here:
      
         https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/2/26/452
      
      However, further work on this had been paused since then and the patches
      were not upstreamed.

      kprobes: Propagate error from arm_kprobe_ftrace() · 12310e34
      Jessica Yu authored
      Improve error handling when arming ftrace-based kprobes. Specifically, if
      we fail to arm a ftrace-based kprobe, register_kprobe()/enable_kprobe()
      should report an error instead of success. Previously, this has lead to
      confusing situations where register_kprobe() would return 0 indicating
      success, but the kprobe would not be functional if ftrace registration
      during the kprobe arming process had failed. We should therefore take any
      errors returned by ftrace into account and propagate this error so that we
      do not register/enable kprobes that cannot be armed. This can happen if,
      for example, register_ftrace_function() finds an IPMODIFY conflict (since
      kprobe_ftrace_ops has this flag set) and returns an error. Such a conflict
      is possible since livepatches also set the IPMODIFY flag for their ftrace_ops.
      
      arm_all_kprobes() keeps its current behavior and attempts to arm all
      kprobes. It returns the last encountered error and gives a warning if
      not all probes could be armed.
      
      This patch is based on Petr Mladek's original patchset (patches 2 and 3)

      Pull perf/core fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
      
      - perf_mmap overwrite mode fixes/overhaul, prep work to get 'perf top'
        using it, making it bearable to use it in large core count systems
        such as Knights Landing/Mill Intel systems (Kan Liang)
      
      - s/390 now uses syscall.tbl, just like x86-64 to generate the syscall
        table id -> string tables used by 'perf trace' (Hendrik Brueckner)
      
      - Use strtoull() instead of home grown function (Andy Shevchenko)
      
      - Synchronize kernel ABI headers, v4.16-rc1 (Ingo Molnar)
      
      - Document missing 'perf data --force' option (Sangwon Hong)
      
      - Add perf vendor JSON metrics for ARM Cortex-A53 Processor (William Cohen)
