exit_thread: accept a task parameter to be exited

2016-05-21T00:58:30+00:00

We need to call exit_thread from copy_process in a fail path. So make it accept task_struct as a parameter. [v2] * s390: exit_thread_runtime_instr doesn't make sense to be called for non-current tasks. * arm: fix the comment in vfp_thread_copy * change 'me' to 'tsk' for task_struct * now we can change only archs that actually have exit_thread [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Cc: "David S.

perf core: Pass max stack as a perf_callchain_entry context

2016-05-17T02:11:50+00:00

This makes perf_callchain_{user,kernel}() receive the max stack as context for the perf_callchain_entry, instead of accessing the global sysctl_perf_event_max_stack.

perf core: Allow setting up max frame stack depth via sysctl

2016-04-27T13:20:39+00:00

The default remains 127, which is good for most cases, and not even hit most of the time, but then for some cases, as reported by Brendan, 1024+ deep frames are appearing on the radar for things like groovy, ruby. And in some workloads putting a _lower_ cap on this may make sense. One that is per event still needs to be put in place tho. The new file is: # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack 127 Chaging it: # echo 256 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack 256 But as soon as there is some event using callchains we get: # echo 512 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack -bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy # Because we only allocate the callchain percpu data structures when there is a user, which allows for changing the max easily, its just a matter of having no callchain users at that point.

xtensa: support hardware breakpoints/watchpoints

2016-03-11T08:53:32+00:00

Use perf framework to manage hardware instruction and data breakpoints. Add two new ptrace calls: PTRACE_GETHBPREGS and PTRACE_SETHBPREGS to query and set instruction and data breakpoints. Address bit 0 choose instruction (0) or data (1) break register, bits 31..1 are the register number. Both calls transfer two 32-bit words: address (0) and control (1). Instruction breakpoint contorl word is 0 to clear breakpoint, 1 to set. Data breakpoint control word bit 31 is 'trigger on store', bit 30 is 'trigger on load, bits 29..0 are length. Length 0 is used to clear a breakpoint. To set a breakpoint length must be a power of 2 in the range 1..64 and the address must be length-aligned. Introduce new thread_info flag: TIF_DB_DISABLED. Set it if debug exception is raised by the kernel code accessing watched userspace address and disable corresponding data breakpoint. On exit to userspace check that flag and, if set, restore all data breakpoints. Handle debug exceptions raised with PS.EXCM set. This may happen when window overflow/underflow handler or fast exception handler hits data breakpoint, in which case save and disable all data breakpoints, single-step faulting instruction and restore data breakpoints.

xtensa: use context structure for debug exceptions

2016-03-11T08:53:32+00:00

With implementation of data breakpoints debug exceptions raised when PS.EXCM is set need to be handled, e.g. window overflow code can write to watched userspace address. Currently debug exception handler uses EXCSAVE and DEPC SRs to save temporary registers, but DEPC may not be available when PS.EXCM is set and more space will be needed to save additional state. Reorganize debug context: create per-CPU structure debug_table instance and store its address in the EXCSAVE instead of debug_exception function address. Expand this structure when more save space is needed. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov

xtensa: remove remaining non-functional KGDB bits

KGDB is not supported on xtensa, but there are bits of related code under arch/xtensa/kernel. Remove these bits. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov

arch/hotplug: Call into idle with a proper state

2016-03-01T19:36:57+00:00

Let the non boot cpus call into idle with the corresponding hotplug state, so the hotplug core can handle the further bringup. That's a first step to convert the boot side of the hotplugged cpus to do all the synchronization with the other side through the state machine. For now it'll only start the hotplug thread and kick the full bringup of the cpu. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Cc: linux-arch@vger.kernel.org Cc: Rik van Riel Cc: Rafael Wysocki Cc: "Srivatsa S.
