[ Upstream commit 35d13f841a3d8159ef20d5e32a9ed3faa27875bc ]

The previous change to support cgroup filters introduced a bug that
pathname can include commas.  It confused the lexer to treat an item and
the trailing comma as a single token.  And it resulted in a parse error:

  $ sudo perf record -e cycles:P --filter 'period &gt; 0, ip &gt; 64' -- true
  perf_bpf_filter: Error: Unexpected item: 0,
  perf_bpf_filter: syntax error, unexpected BFT_ERROR, expecting BFT_NUM

   Usage: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]
      or: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] -- &lt;command&gt; [&lt;options&gt;]

          --filter &lt;filter&gt;
                            event filter

It should get "0" and "," separately.

An easiest fix would be to remove "," from the possible pathname
characters.  As it's for cgroup names, probably ok to assume it won't
have commas in the pathname.

I found that the existing BPF filtering test didn't have any complex
filter condition with commas.  Let's update the group filter test which
is supposed to test filter combinations like this.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 02ba09c8ab9406f30c5c63b7cfd4b300c3c2c32c ]

Test case "stat_all_pmu.sh" is not correctly checking 'perf stat' output
due to a poor design. Firstly, having the 'set -e' option with a trap
catching the sigexit causes the shell to exit immediately if 'perf stat' ends
with any non-zero value, which is then caught by the trap reporting an
unexpected signal. This causes events that should be parsed by the if-else
statement to be caught by the trap handler and are reported as errors:

    $ perf test -vv "perf all pmu"
    Testing i915/actual-frequency/
    Unexpected signal in main
    Error:
    Access to performance monitoring and observability operations is limited.

Secondly, the if-else branches are not exclusive as the checking if the
event is present in the output log covers also the "&lt;not supported&gt;"
events, which should be accepted, and also the "Bad name events", which
should be rejected.

Remove the "set -e" option from the test case, correctly parse the
"perf stat" output log and check its return value. Add the missing
outputs for the 'perf stat' result and also add logs messages to
report the branch that parsed the event for more info.

tool_pmu__event_to_str() now handles skipped events by returning NULL,
so it's wrong to re-check for a skip on the resulting string. Calling
tool_pmu__skip_event() with a NULL string results in a segfault so
remove the unnecessary skip to fix it:

  $ perf test -vv "parsing with PMU name"

commit 63e287131cf0c59b026053d6d63fe271604ffa7e upstream.

Wildcard PMU naming will match a name like pmu_1 to a PMU name like
pmu_10 but not to a PMU name like pmu_2 as the suffix forms part of
the match. No suffix matching will match pmu_10 to either pmu_1 or
pmu_2. Add or rename matching functions on PMU to make it clearer what
kind of matching is being performed.

in line 625 of file ./util/hwmon_pmu.c:

   attr-&gt;config = key.type_and_num;

However member key::type_and_num is defined as union and bit field:

   union hwmon_pmu_event_key {
        long type_and_num;
        struct {
                int num :16;
                enum hwmon_type type :8;
        };
   };

s390 is big endian and Intel is little endian architecture.
The events for the hwmon dummy pmu have num = 1 or num = 2 and
type is set to HWMON_TYPE_TEMP (which is 10).
On s390 this assignes member key::type_and_num the value of
0x10a0000000000 (which is 292470092988416) as shown in above
trace output.

Fix this and export the structure/union hwmon_pmu_event_key
so the test shares the same implementation as the event parsing
functions for union and bit fields. This should avoid
endianess issues on all platforms.

Output after:
 # ./perf test -F 11

 11.2: Parsing without PMU name   : Ok

[ Upstream commit 72d81e10628be6a948463259cbb6d3b670b20054 ]

The perf trace enum augmentation test specifically targets landlock_
add_rule syscall but IIUC it's an optional and can be opt-out by a
kernel config.

Currently trace_landlock() runs `perf test -w landlock` before the
actual testing to check the availability but it's not enough since the
workload always returns 0.  Instead it could check if perf trace output
has 'landlock' string.

[ Upstream commit 967364894e61b15819a0c11231512ecd5a46b503 ]

Now that printing metric-value and metric-unit is optional,
print_running_json() shouldn't add the comma in case it becomes
trailing.

Replace all manual JSON comma stuff with a json_out() function that uses
the existing os-&gt;first tracking and auto inserts a comma if it's needed.
Update the test to handle that two of the fields can be missing.

This fixes the following test failure on Cortex A57 where the branch
misses metric is missing a required event:

<content type='text'>
The refactoring of tool PMU events to have a PMU then adding the expr
literals to the tool PMU made it so that the literal system_tsc_freq
was only supported on x86. Update the test expectations to match -
namely the parsing is x86 specific and only yields a non-zero value on
Intel.
