Subject: [PATCH 4.18 091/158] perf build: Fix installation directory for eBPF

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Richter <tmricht@...ux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 83868bf71d2eb7700b37f1ea188007f0125e4ee4 ]

The perf tool build and install is controlled via a Makefile. The
'install' rule creates directories and copies files. Among them are
header files installed in /usr/lib/include/perf/bpf/.

However all listed examples are installing its header files in

  /usr/lib/<tool-name>/...[/include]/header.h

and not in

  /usr/lib/include/<tool-name>/.../header.h.

Background information:

Building the Fedora 28 glibc RPM on s390x and s390 fails on s390 (gcc
-m31) as gcc is not able to find header-files like stdbool.h.

In the glibc.spec file, you can see that glibc is configured with
"--with-headers". In this case, first -nostdinc is added to the CFLAGS
and then further include paths are added via -isystem.  One of those
paths should contain header files like stdbool.h.

In order to get this path, gcc is invoked with:

- on Fedora 28 (with 4.18 kernel):

  $ gcc -print-file-name=include
  /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-redhat-linux/8/include
  $ gcc -m31 -print-file-name=include
  /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-redhat-linux/8/../../../../lib/include
  => If perf is installed, this is: /usr/lib/include
  On my machine this directory is only containing the directory "perf".
  If perf is not installed gcc returns: /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-redhat-linux/8/include

- on Ubuntu 18.04 (with 4.15 kernel):

  $ gcc  -print-file-name=include
  /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-linux-gnu/7/include
  $ gcc -m31 -print-file-name=include
  /usr/lib/gcc/s390x-linux-gnu/7/include
  => gcc returns the correct path even if perf is installed.

In each case, the introduction of the subdirectory /usr/lib/include
leads to the regression that one can not build the glibc RPM for s390
anymore as gcc can not find headers like stdbool.h.

To remedy this install bpf.h to /usr/lib/perf/include/bpf/bpf.h

Output before using the command 'perf test -Fv 40':

  echo '...[bpf-program-source]...' | /usr/bin/clang ... \
		   -I/root/lib/include/perf/bpf ...
                               ^^^^^^^^^^^^

		 -I/root/lib/perf/include/bpf ...
                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Committer testing:

While the above 'perf test -F 40' (or 'perf test bpf') will allow us
to see that the correct path is now added via -I, to actually test this
we better try to use a bpf script that includes files in the changed
directory.

We have the files that now reside in /root/lib/perf/examples/bpf/ to do
just that:

  # tail -8 /root/lib/perf/examples/bpf/5sec.c
  #include <bpf.h>

  int probe(hrtimer_nanosleep, rqtp->tv_sec)(void *ctx, int err, long sec)
  {
	  return sec == 5;
  }

       0.333 (4000.086 ms): sleep/9248 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffc155f3300) = 0
  # perf trace -e *sleep -e /root/lib/perf/examples/bpf/5sec.c sleep 5
