Merge tag 'alternatives_padding' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bp/bp into x86/asm

2015-03-04T05:36:15+00:00

Pull alternative instructions framework improvements from Borislav Petkov: "A more involved rework of the alternatives framework to be able to pad instructions and thus make using the alternatives macros more straightforward and without having to figure out old and new instruction sizes but have the toolchain figure that out for us. Furthermore, it optimizes JMPs used so that fetch and decode can be relieved with smaller versions of the JMPs, where possible. Some stats: x86_64 defconfig: Alternatives sites total: 2478 Total padding added (in Bytes): 6051 The padding is currently done for: X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS X86_FEATURE_ERMS X86_FEATURE_LFENCE_RDTSC X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC X86_FEATURE_SMAP This is with the latest version of the patchset. Of course, on each machine the alternatives sites actually being patched are a proper subset of the total number." Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

perf bench: Fix order of arguments to memcpy_alloc_mem

2015-02-23T02:10:56+00:00

This was causing the destination instead of the source to be filled. As a result, the source was typically all mapped to one zero page, and hence very cacheable.

perf bench: Fix memcpy/memset output

2014-12-09T12:14:08+00:00

The memcpy and memset benchmarks return bogus results when iterations > 0 because the iterations value is not taken into account when calculating the final result: $ perf bench mem memset --only-prefault --length 1GB --iterations 1 # Running 'mem/memset' benchmark: # Copying 1GB Bytes ... 20.798669 GB/Sec (with prefault) $ perf bench mem memset --only-prefault --length 1GB --iterations 10 # Running 'mem/memset' benchmark: # Copying 1GB Bytes ... 2.086576 GB/Sec (with prefault) $ perf bench mem memset --only-prefault --length 1GB --iterations 100 # Running 'mem/memset' benchmark: # Copying 1GB Bytes ... 212.840917 MB/Sec (with prefault) Fix this.

perf bench: Merge memset into memcpy

The memset benchmark is largely copy-pasted from the memcpy benchmark. Merge the two now that memcpy is made more generic.

perf tools: Enable close-on-exec flag on perf file descriptor

2014-07-18T07:09:34+00:00

In commit a21b0b354d4a ('perf: Introduce a flag to enable close-on-exec in perf_event_open()'), flag PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC was added to perf_event_open(2) syscall to allows userspace to atomically enable close-on-exec behavor when creating the file descriptor. This patch makes perf tools use the new flag if supported by the kernel, so that the event file descriptors got automatically closed if perf tool exec a sub-command.
