<content type='text'>
The `cpu` argument of perf_evsel__read() must specify the cpu index.

perf_cpu_map__for_each_cpu() is for iterating the cpu number (not index)
and is thus not appropriate for use with perf_evsel__read().

So, if there is an offline CPU, the cpu number specified in the argument
may point out of range because the cpu number and the cpu index are
different.

Fix test_stat_cpu().

Testing it:

  # make tests -C tools/lib/perf/
  make: Entering directory '/home/nakamura/kernel_src/linux-5.15-rc4_fix/tools/lib/perf'

<title>libbpf: Fix segfault in light skeleton for objects without BTF</title>

<content type='text'>
When fed an empty BPF object, bpftool gen skeleton -L crashes at
btf__set_fd() since it assumes presence of obj-&gt;btf, however for
the sequence below clang adds no .BTF section (hence no BTF).

Reproducer:

  $ touch a.bpf.c
  $ clang -O2 -g -target bpf -c a.bpf.c
  $ bpftool gen skeleton -L a.bpf.o
  /* SPDX-License-Identifier: (LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause) */
  /* THIS FILE IS AUTOGENERATED! */

  struct a_bpf {
	struct bpf_loader_ctx ctx;
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The same occurs for files compiled without BTF info, i.e. without
clang's -g flag.

<content type='text'>
When a BPF object is compiled without BTF info (without -g),
trying to link such objects using bpftool causes a SIGSEGV due to
btf__get_nr_types accessing obj-&gt;btf which is NULL. Fix this by
checking for the NULL pointer, and return error.

Reproducer:
$ cat a.bpf.c
extern int foo(void);
int bar(void) { return foo(); }
$ cat b.bpf.c
int foo(void) { return 0; }
$ clang -O2 -target bpf -c a.bpf.c
$ clang -O2 -target bpf -c b.bpf.c
$ bpftool gen obj out a.bpf.o b.bpf.o
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

After fix:
$ bpftool gen obj out a.bpf.o b.bpf.o
libbpf: failed to find BTF info for object 'a.bpf.o'
Error: failed to link 'a.bpf.o': Unknown error -22 (-22)

<title>libperf evsel: Make use of FD robust.</title>

FD uses xyarray__entry that may return NULL if an index is out of
bounds. If NULL is returned then a segv happens as FD unconditionally
dereferences the pointer. This was happening in a case of with perf
iostat as shown below. The fix is to make FD an "int*" rather than an
int and handle the NULL case as either invalid input or a closed fd.

  Misc improvements:

   - Preparatory patches for multithreading various 'perf record' phases
     (synthesizing, opening, recording, etc).

   - Add sparse context/locking annotations in compiler-types.h, also to
     help with the multithreading effort.

   - Optimize the generation of the arch specific erno tables used in
     'perf trace'.

   - Optimize libperf's perf_cpu_map__max().

   - Improve ARM's CoreSight warnings.

   - Report collisions in AUX records.

   - Improve warnings for the LLVM 'perf test' entry.

   - Improve the PMU events 'perf test' codebase.

   - perf test: Do not compare overheads in the zstd comp test

   - Better support annotation on ARM.

   - Update 'perf trace's cmd string table to decode sys_bpf() first
     arg.

  Vendor events:

   - Add JSON events and metrics for Intel's Ice Lake, Tiger Lake and
     Elhart Lake.

     servers.

  Hardware tracing:

   - Improvements for the ARM hardware tracing auxtrace support"

From commit 7074674e7338863e ("perf cpumap: Maintain cpumaps ordered and
without dups"), perf_cpu_map elements are sorted in ascending order.

This patch improves the perf_cpu_map__max function by returning the last
element.

Committer notes:

Do it as a ternary to keep it in just one return line, add a comment
explaining it is sorted and what functions does it.
