<title>tools/loongarch: Use __SIZEOF_LONG__ to define __BITS_PER_LONG</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b5533e990dd1de5872a34cba2f4f7f508c9b2ec3</id>
<content type='text'>
Although __SIZEOF_POINTER__ is equal to _SIZEOF_LONG__ on LoongArch,
it is better to use __SIZEOF_LONG__ to define __BITS_PER_LONG to keep
consistent between arch/loongarch/include/uapi/asm/bitsperlong.h and
tools/arch/loongarch/include/uapi/asm/bitsperlong.h.

Pull perf tools fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 - Add Adrian Hunter to MAINTAINERS as a perf tools reviewer

 - Sync various tools/ copies of kernel headers with the kernel sources,
   this time trying to avoid first merging with upstream to then update
   but instead copy from upstream so that a merge is avoided and the end
   result after merging this pull request is the one expected,
   tools/perf/check-headers.sh (mostly) happy, less warnings while
   building tools/perf/

 - Fix counting when initial delay configured by setting
   perf_attr.enable_on_exec when starting workloads from the perf
   command line

 - Don't avoid emitting a PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 in 'perf inject
   --buildid-all' when that record comes with a build-id, otherwise we
   end up not being able to resolve symbols

 - Don't use comma as the CSV output separator the "stat+csv_output"
   test, as comma can appear on some tests as a modifier for an event,
   use @ instead, ditto for the JSON linter test

 - The offcpu test was looking for some bits being set on
   task_struct-&gt;prev_state without masking other bits not important for
   this specific 'perf test', fix it

To pick the changes from:

  8415a74852d7c247 ("x86/cpu, kvm: Add support for CPUID_80000021_EAX")

This only causes these perf files to be rebuilt:

  CC       /tmp/build/perf/bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o
  CC       /tmp/build/perf/bench/mem-memset-x86-64-asm.o

And addresses these perf build warnings:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h'
  diff -u tools/arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h

To pick up the changes in:

  e7862eda309ecfcc ("x86/cpu: Support AMD Automatic IBRS")
  0125acda7d76b943 ("x86/bugs: Reset speculation control settings on init")
  38aaf921e92dc5cf ("perf/x86: Add Meteor Lake support")

  dc2a3e857981f859 ("x86/resctrl: Add interface to read mbm_total_bytes_config")

Addressing these tools/perf build warnings:

    diff -u tools/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h
    Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h'

That makes the beautification scripts to pick some new entries:

  $ tools/perf/trace/beauty/tracepoints/x86_msr.sh &gt; before
  $ cp arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h tools/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h

Now one can trace systemwide asking to see backtraces to where that MSR
is being read/written, see this example with a previous update:

  # perf trace -e msr:*_msr/max-stack=32/ --filter="msr&gt;=IA32_U_CET &amp;&amp; msr&lt;=IA32_INT_SSP_TAB"
  ^C#

If we use -v (verbose mode) we can see what it does behind the scenes:

  # perf trace -v -e msr:*_msr/max-stack=32/ --filter="msr&gt;=IA32_U_CET &amp;&amp; msr&lt;=IA32_INT_SSP_TAB"
  Using CPUID AuthenticAMD-25-21-0
  0x6a0
  0x6a8
  New filter for msr:read_msr: (msr&gt;=0x6a0 &amp;&amp; msr&lt;=0x6a8) &amp;&amp; (common_pid != 597499 &amp;&amp; common_pid != 3313)
  0x6a0
  0x6a8
  New filter for msr:write_msr: (msr&gt;=0x6a0 &amp;&amp; msr&lt;=0x6a8) &amp;&amp; (common_pid != 597499 &amp;&amp; common_pid != 3313)
  mmap size 528384B
  ^C#

Example with a frequent msr:

  # perf trace -v -e msr:*_msr/max-stack=32/ --filter="msr==IA32_SPEC_CTRL" --max-events 2
  Using CPUID AuthenticAMD-25-21-0
  0x48
  New filter for msr:read_msr: (msr==0x48) &amp;&amp; (common_pid != 2612129 &amp;&amp; common_pid != 3841)

To pick up the changes in:

  89b0e7de3451a17f ("KVM: arm64: nv: Introduce nested virtualization VCPU feature")
  14329b825ffb7f27 ("KVM: x86/pmu: Introduce masked events to the pmu event filter")
  6213b701a9df0472 ("KVM: x86: Replace 0-length arrays with flexible arrays")
  3fd49805d19d1c56 ("KVM: s390: Extend MEM_OP ioctl by storage key checked cmpxchg")
  14329b825ffb7f27 ("KVM: x86/pmu: Introduce masked events to the pmu event filter")

That don't change functionality in tools/perf, as no new ioctl is added
for the 'perf trace' scripts to harvest.

This addresses these perf build warnings:

We also continue with SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START() in util/include/linux/linkage.h
and with an exception in tools/perf/check_headers.sh's diff check to ignore
the include cfi_types.h line when checking if the kernel original files drifted
from the copies we carry.

This is to get the changes from:

  69d4c0d3218692ff ("entry, kasan, x86: Disallow overriding mem*() functions")

That addresses these perf tools build warning:

To pick the changes in:

  8c29f01654053258 ("x86/sev: Add SEV-SNP guest feature negotiation support")

That triggers:

  LINK    /tmp/build/perf-tools/perf

But this time causes no changes in tooling results, as the introduced
SVM_VMGEXIT_TERM_REQUEST exit reason wasn't added to SVM_EXIT_REASONS,
that is used in kvm-stat.c.

And addresses this perf build warning:

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Shrink 'struct instruction', to improve objtool performance &amp; memory
   footprint

 - Other maximum memory usage reductions - this makes the build both
   faster, and fixes kernel build OOM failures on allyesconfig and
   similar configs when they try to build the final (large) vmlinux.o

 - Fix ORC unwinding when a kprobe (INT3) is set on a stack-modifying
   single-byte instruction (PUSH/POP or LEAVE). This requires the
   extension of the ORC metadata structure with a 'signal' field

 - Misc fixes &amp; cleanups
