perf bench syscall: Introduce bench_syscall_common()

2023-02-02T19:32:19+00:00

In the current code, there is only a basic syscall benchmark via getppid, this is not enough. Introduce bench_syscall_common() so that we can add more syscalls to benchmark. This is preparation for later patch, no functionality change.

Merge tag 'parisc-for-6.2-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux

2022-12-20T14:43:53+00:00

Pull parisc updates from Helge Deller: "There is one noteable patch, which allows the parisc kernel to use the same MADV_xxx constants as the other architectures going forward. With that change only alpha has one entry left (MADV_DONTNEED is 6 vs 4 on others) which is different. To prevent an ABI breakage, a wrapper is included which translates old MADV values to the new ones, so existing userspace isn't affected. Reason for that patch is, that some applications wrongly used the standard MADV_xxx values even on some non-x86 platforms and as such those programs failed to run correctly on parisc (examples are qemu-user, tor browser and boringssl). Then the kgdb console and the LED code received some fixes, and some 0-day warnings are now gone. Finally, the very last compile warning which was visible during a kernel build is now fixed too (in the vDSO code). The majority of the patches are tagged for stable series and in summary this patchset is quite small and drops more code than it adds: Fixes: - Fix potential null-ptr-deref in start_task() - Fix kgdb console on serial port - Add missing FORCE prerequisites in Makefile - Drop PMD_SHIFT from calculation in pgtable.h Enhancements: - Implement a wrapper to align madvise() MADV_* constants with other architectures - If machine supports running MPE/XL, show the MPE model string Cleanups: - Drop duplicate kgdb console code - Indenting fixes in setup_cmdline()" * tag 'parisc-for-6.2-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux: parisc: Show MPE/iX model string at bootup parisc: Add missing FORCE prerequisites in Makefile parisc: Move pdc_result struct to firmware.c parisc: Drop locking in pdc console code parisc: Drop duplicate kgdb_pdc console parisc: Fix locking in pdc_iodc_print() firmware call parisc: Drop PMD_SHIFT from calculation in pgtable.h parisc: Align parisc MADV_XXX constants with all other architectures parisc: led: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in start_task() parisc: Fix inconsistent indenting in setup_cmdline()

parisc: Align parisc MADV_XXX constants with all other architectures

2022-12-17T22:19:39+00:00

Adjust some MADV_XXX constants to be in sync what their values are on all other platforms. There is currently no reason to have an own numbering on parisc, but it requires workarounds in many userspace sources (e.g. glibc, qemu, ...) - which are often forgotten and thus introduce bugs and different behaviour on parisc. A wrapper avoids an ABI breakage for existing userspace applications by translating any old values to the new ones, so this change allows us to move over all programs to the new ABI over time.

perf tools: Use dedicated non-atomic clear/set bit helpers

2022-12-05T12:29:06+00:00

Use the dedicated non-atomic helpers for {clear,set}_bit() and their test variants, i.e. the double-underscore versions. Depsite being defined in atomic.h, and despite the kernel versions being atomic in the kernel, tools' {clear,set}_bit() helpers aren't actually atomic. Move to the double-underscore versions so that the versions that are expected to be atomic (for kernel developers) can be made atomic without affecting users that don't want atomic operations. No functional change intended.

perf tools: Move 'struct perf_sample' to a separate header file to disentangle headers

2022-10-31T14:06:41+00:00

Some places were including event.h just to get 'struct perf_sample', move it to a separate place so that we speed up a bit the build. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf tools: Make quiet mode consistent between tools

2022-10-27T19:37:26+00:00

Use the global quiet variable everywhere so that all tools hide warnings in quiet mode and update the documentation to reflect this. 'perf probe' claimed that errors are not printed in quiet mode but I don't see this so remove it from the docs.
