The current comment in pmao_restore_workaround() regarding
hard_irq_disable() is wrong. It should say to hard *disable* interrupts
instead of *enable*. Fix it.

<title>powerpc/perf/24x7: Eliminate domain suffix in event names</title>

<content type='text'>
The Physical Core events of the 24x7 PMU can be monitored across various
domains (physical core, vcpu home core, vcpu home node etc). For each of
these core events, we currently create multiple events in sysfs, one for
each domain the event can be monitored in. These events are distinguished
by their suffixes like __PHYS_CORE, __VCPU_HOME_CORE etc.

Rather than creating multiple such entries, we could let the user specify
make 'domain' index a required parameter and let the user specify a value
for it (like they currently specify the core index).

	$ cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events/HPM_CCYC
	domain=?,offset=0x98,core=?,lpar=0x0

	$ perf stat -C 0 -e hv_24x7/HPM_CCYC,domain=2,core=1/ true

(the 'domain=?' and 'core=?' in sysfs tell perf tool to enforce them as
required parameters).

This simplifies the interface and allows users to identify events by the
name specified in the catalog (User can determine the domain index by
referring to '/sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/interface/domains').

Eliminating the event suffix eliminates several functions and simplifies
code.

Note that Physical Chip events can only be monitored in the chip domain
so those events have the domain set to 1 (rather than =?) and users don't
need to specify the domain index for the Chip events.

	$ cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events/PM_XLINK_CYCLES
	domain=1,offset=0x230,chip=?,lpar=0x0

	$ perf stat -C 0 -e hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES,chip=1/ true

For 24x7 counters, perf displays the raw value of the 24x7 counter, which
is a monotonically increasing value.

	perf stat -C 0 -e \
		'hv_24x7/HPM_0THRD_NON_IDLE_CCYC__PHYS_CORE,core=1/' \
		sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':

     9,105,403,170      hv_24x7/HPM_0THRD_NON_IDLE_CCYC__PHYS_CORE,core=1/

       0.000425751 seconds time elapsed

In the typical usage of 'perf stat' this counter value is not as useful
as the _change_ in the counter value over the duration of the application.

Have h_24x7_event_init() set the event's prev_count to the raw value of
the 24x7 counter at the time of initialization. When the application
terminates, hv_24x7_event_read() will compute the change in value and
report to the perf tool. Similarly, for the transaction interface, clear
the event count to 0 at the beginning of the transaction.

	perf stat -C 0 -e \
		'hv_24x7/HPM_0THRD_NON_IDLE_CCYC__PHYS_CORE,core=1/' \
		sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':

           245,758      hv_24x7/HPM_0THRD_NON_IDLE_CCYC__PHYS_CORE,core=1/

24x7 counters can belong to different domains (core, chip, virtual CPU
etc). For events in the 'chip' domain, sysfs entry currently looks like:

	$ cd /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events
	$ cat PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP
	domain=0x1,offset=0x230,core=?,lpar=0x0

where the required parameter, 'core=?' is specified with perf as:

	perf stat -C 0 -e hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP,core=1/ \
		/bin/true

This is inconsistent in that 'core' is a required parameter for a chip
event.  Instead, have the the sysfs entry display 'chip=?' for chip
events:

	$ cd /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events
	$ cat PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP
	domain=0x1,offset=0x230,chip=?,lpar=0x0

We also need to add a 'chip' entry in the sysfs format directory:

	$ ls /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/format
	chip  core  domain  lpar  offset  vcpu
	^^^^
	(new)

so the perf tool can automatically check usage and format the chip
parameter correctly:

	$ perf stat -C 0 -v -e hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP/ \
		/bin/true
	Required parameter 'chip' not specified
	invalid or unsupported event: 'hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP/'

	$ perf stat -C 0 -v -e hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP,chip=1/ \
		/bin/true
	hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP,chip=1/: 0 6628908 6628908

	 Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':

	         0      hv_24x7/PM_XLINK_CYCLES__PHYS_CHIP,chip=1/

	    0.006606970 seconds time elapsed

<title>powerpc/perf: Export Power8 generic and cache events to sysfs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e0728b50d480da6be228dd160a43b37e4c0b1636</id>
<content type='text'>
Power8 supports a large number of events in each susbystem so when a
user runs:

	perf stat -e branch-instructions sleep 1
	perf stat -e L1-dcache-loads sleep 1

it is not clear as to which PMU events were monitored.

Export the generic hardware and cache perf events for Power8 to sysfs,
so users can precisely determine the PMU event monitored by the generic
event.

Eg:
	cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/events/branch-instructions
	event=0x10068

	$ cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/events/L1-dcache-loads
	event=0x100ee

<title>powerpc/perf: Remove PME_ prefix for power7 events</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d4969e2459c6e852a6862256cf8e869aaa3e8adf</id>
<content type='text'>
We used the PME_ prefix earlier to avoid some macro/variable name
collisions.  We have since changed the way we define/use the event
macros so we no longer need the prefix.

By dropping the prefix, we keep the the event macros consistent with
their official names.

<id>urn:sha1:e9ab1a1cafb7911df1550a285f2f733ea5920f55</id>
<content type='text'>
This makes vmalloc_to_phys() public as there will be another user
(KVM in-kernel VFIO acceleration) for it soon. As this new user
can be compiled as a module, this exports the symbol.

As a little optimization, this changes the helper to call
vmalloc_to_pfn() instead of vmalloc_to_page() as the size of the
struct page may not be power-of-two aligned which will make gcc use
multiply instructions instead of shifts.
