There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare
having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure.
Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].
This code was transformed with the help of Coccinelle:
(linux-5.19-rc2$ spatch --jobs $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --sp-file script.cocci --include-headers --dir . > output.patch)
@@
identifier S, member, array;
type T1, T2;
@@
struct S {
...
T1 member;
T2 array[
- 0
];
};
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 is coming and we need to land these changes
to prevent issues like these in the short future:
../fs/minix/dir.c:337:3: warning: 'strcpy' will always overflow; destination buffer has size 0,
but the source string has length 2 (including NUL byte) [-Wfortify-source]
strcpy(de3->name, ".");
^
Since these are all [0] to [] changes, the risk to UAPI is nearly zero. If
this breaks anything, we can use a union with a new member name.

Pull x86 perf event updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Fix address filtering for Intel/PT,ARM/CoreSight
- Enable Intel/PEBS format 5
- Allow more fixed-function counters for x86
- Intel/PT: Enable not recording Taken-Not-Taken packets
- Add a few branch-types
* tag 'perf-core-2022-03-21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix the build on !CONFIG_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT
perf: Add irq and exception return branch types
perf/x86/intel/uncore: Make uncore_discovery clean for 64 bit addresses
perf/x86/intel/pt: Add a capability and config bit for disabling TNTs
perf/x86/intel/pt: Add a capability and config bit for event tracing
perf/x86/intel: Increase max number of the fixed counters
KVM: x86: use the KVM side max supported fixed counter
perf/x86/intel: Enable PEBS format 5
perf/core: Allow kernel address filter when not filtering the kernel
perf/x86/intel/pt: Fix address filter config for 32-bit kernel
perf/core: Fix address filter parser for multiple filters
x86: Share definition of __is_canonical_address()
perf/x86/intel/pt: Relax address filter validation
This expands generic branch type classification by adding two more entries
there in i.e irq and exception return. Also updates the x86 implementation
to process X86_BR_IRET and X86_BR_IRQ records as appropriate. This changes
branch types reported to user space on x86 platform but it should not be a
problem. The possible scenarios and impacts are enumerated here.

To pick up some tools/perf/ patches that went via tip/perf/core, such
as:
tools/perf: Add mem_hops field in perf_mem_data_src structure
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
Going forward, future generation systems can have more hierarchy
within the node/package level but currently we don't have any data source
encoding field in perf, which can be used to represent this level of data.
Add a new field called 'mem_hops' in the perf_mem_data_src structure
which can be used to represent intra-node/package or inter-node/off-package
details. This field is of size 3 bits where PERF_MEM_HOPS_{NA, 0..6} value
can be used to present different hop levels data.
Also add corresponding macros to define mem_hop field values
and shift value.
Currently we define macro for HOPS_0 which corresponds
to data coming from another core but same node.
Add functionality to represent mem_hop field data in
perf_mem__lvl_scnprintf function with the help of added string
array called mem_hops.
For ex: Encodings for mem_hops fields with L2 cache:
L2 - local L2
L2 | REMOTE | HOPS_0 - remote core, same node L2
Since with the addition of HOPS field, now remote can be used to
denote cache access from the same node but different core, a check
is added in the c2c_decode_stats function to set mrem only when HOPS
is zero along with set remote field.
