Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel side changes:
- Add branch type profiling/tracing support. (Jin Yao)
- Add the PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR ABI to allow the tracing/profiling of
physical memory addresses, where the PMU supports it. (Kan Liang)
- Export some PMU capability details in the new
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/ sysfs directory. (Andi
Kleen)
- Aux data fixes and updates (Will Deacon)
- kprobes fixes and updates (Masami Hiramatsu)
- AMD uncore PMU driver fixes and updates (Janakarajan Natarajan)
On the tooling side, here's a (limited!) list of highlights - there
were many other changes that I could not list, see the shortlog and
git history for details:
UI improvements:
- Implement a visual marker for fused x86 instructions in the
annotate TUI browser, available now in 'perf report', more work
needed to have it available as well in 'perf top' (Jin Yao)
Further explanation from one of Jin's patches:
│ ┌──cmpl $0x0,argp_program_version_hook
81.93 │ ├──je 20
│ │ lock cmpxchg %esi,0x38a9a4(%rip)
│ │↓ jne 29
│ │↓ jmp 43
11.47 │20:└─→cmpxch %esi,0x38a999(%rip)
That means the cmpl+je is a fused instruction pair and they should
be considered together.
- Record the branch type and then show statistics and info about in
callchain entries (Jin Yao)
Example from one of Jin's patches:
# perf record -g -j any,save_type
# perf report --branch-history --stdio --no-children

namespaces support:
- Add initial support for namespaces, using setns to access files in
namespaces, grabbing their build-ids, etc. (Krister Johansen)
perf trace enhancements:
- Beautify pkey_{alloc,free,mprotect} arguments in 'perf trace'
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add initial 'clone' syscall args beautifier in 'perf trace'
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Ignore 'fd' and 'offset' args for MAP_ANONYMOUS in 'perf trace'
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Beautifiers for the 'cmd' arg of several ioctl types, including:
sound, DRM, KVM, vhost virtio and perf_events. (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)
- Add PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN and PERF_RECORD_MMAP[2] to 'perf data'
CTF conversion, allowing CTF trace visualization tools to show
callchains and to resolve symbols (Geneviève Bastien)
- Beautify the fcntl syscall, which is an interesting one in the
sense that infrastructure had to be put in place to change the
formatters of some arguments according to the value in a previous
one, i.e. cmd dictates how arg and the syscall return will be
formatted. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
perf stat enhancements:
- Use group read for event groups in 'perf stat', reducing overhead
when groups are defined in the event specification, i.e. when using
{} to enclose a list of events, asking them to be read at the same
time, e.g.: "perf stat -e '{cycles,instructions}'" (Jiri Olsa)
pipe mode improvements:
- Process tracing data in 'perf annotate' pipe mode (David
Carrillo-Cisneros)
- Add header record types to pipe-mode, now this command:
$ perf record -o - -e cycles sleep 1 | perf report --stdio --header
Will show the same as in non-pipe mode, i.e. involving a perf.data
file (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
Vendor specific hardware event support updates/enhancements:
- Update POWER9 vendor events tables (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)
- Add POWER9 PMU events Sukadev (Bhattiprolu)
- Support additional POWER8+ PVR in PMU mapfile (Shriya)
- Add Skylake server uncore JSON vendor events (Andi Kleen)
- Support exporting Intel PT data to sqlite3 with python perf
scripts, this is in addition to the postgresql support that was
already there (Adrian Hunter)"

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"After a fair amount of churn in the last couple of cycles, docs are
taking it easier this time around. Lots of fixes and some new
documentation, but nothing all that radical. Perhaps the most
interesting change for many is the scripts/sphinx-pre-install tool
from Mauro; it will tell you exactly which packages you need to
install to get a working docs toolchain on your system.

just tweak kerneldoc comments to eliminate warnings and fix some
dangling doc pointers"

Pull rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
"This is a big pull request.
Of note is that I'm sending you the new ioctl API for the rdma
subsystem. We put it up on linux-api@, but didn't get much response.
The API is complex, but it solves two different problems in one go:
1) The bi-directional nature of the RDMA file write calls, which
created the security hole we had to handle (and for which the fix
is now causing problems for systems in production, we were a bit
over zealous in the fix and the ability to open a device, then
fork, then create new queue pairs on the device and use them is
broken).
2) The bloat caused by different vendors implementing extensions to
the base verbs API. Each vendor's hardware is slightly different,
and the hardware might be suitable for one extension but not
another.
By the time we add generic extensions for all the different ways
that the different hardware can offload things, the API becomes
bloated. Things like our completion structs have started to exceed
a cache line in size because of all the elements needed to support
this. That in turn shows up heavily in the performance graphs with
a noticable drop in performance on 100Gigabit links as our
completion structs go from occupying one cache line to 1+.
This API makes things like the completion structs modular in a
very similar way to netlink so that your structs can only include
the items needed for the offloads/features you are actually using
on a given queue pair. In that way we support everything, but only
use what we need, and our structs stay smaller.
The ioctl API is better explained by the posting on linux-api@ than I
can explain it here, so I'll just leave it at that.
The rest of the pull request is typical stuff.

On python3, Popen() universal_newlines=True converts the subprocess
stdout to unicode text using a codec based on user preferences. Given
LANG indicating ascii and utf-8 stdout from the subprocess, you'd get:
WARNING: kernel-doc '../scripts/kernel-doc -rst -enable-lineno
../drivers/media/dvb-core/demux.h' processing failed with: 'ascii' codec can't
decode byte 0xe2 in position 6368: ordinal not in range(128)
Fix this by dropping universal_newlines=True and replacing the implicit
LANG specific decode with an explicit utf-8 decode. This also gets rid
of the annoying conditional code for python 2 vs. 3.

The rtmutex remove a pending owner bit in in rt_mutex::owner, in
commit 8161239a8bcc ("rtmutex: Simplify PI algorithm and make highest prio task get lock")
But the document was changed accordingly. Updating it to a meaningful
state.
BTW, as 'Steven Rostedt' mentioned:
There is still technically a "Pending Owner", it's just not called
that anymore. The pending owner happens to be the top_waiter of a lock
that has no owner and has been woken up to grab the lock.

The rt-mutex-design documents didn't gotten meaningful update from its
first version. Even after owner's pending bit was removed in commit 8161239a8bcc
("rtmutex: Simplify PI algorithm and make highest prio task get lock")
and priority list 'plist' changed to rbtree. And Peter Zijlstra did some
clean up and fix for deadline task changes on tip tree.
So update it to latest code and make it meaningful.

Currently, on Sphinx up to version 1.4, pdf output uses a vertical
margin of 1 inch. For upper versions, it uses a margin of 0.5 inches.
That causes both page headers and footers to be very close to the margin
of the sheet. Not all printers support writing like that.
Also, there's no reason why the layout for newer versions would be
different than for previous ones.
So, standardize it, by always setting to 1 inch.

mode (i.e. will send results to intel-gfx) on hsw, more platforms to
come.
Also, a new maintainer tram, I'm stepping out. Huge thanks to Jani for
being an awesome co-maintainer the past few years, and all the best
for Jani, Joonas&Rodrigo as the new maintainers!

The memory-barriers.txt document contains an obsolete passage stating that
smp_read_barrier_depends() is required to force ordering for read-to-write
dependencies. We now know that this is not required, even for DEC Alpha.
This commit therefore updates this passage to state that read-to-write
dependencies are respected even without smp_read_barrier_depends().
