Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel side changes:
- Add Intel RAPL energy counter support (Stephane Eranian)
- Clean up uprobes (Oleg Nesterov)
- Optimize ring-buffer writes (Peter Zijlstra)
Tooling side changes, user visible:
- 'perf diff':
- Add column colouring improvements (Ramkumar Ramachandra)
- 'perf kvm':
- Add guest related improvements, including allowing to specify a
directory with guest specific /proc information (Dongsheng Yang)
- Add shell completion support (Ramkumar Ramachandra)
- Add '-v' option (Dongsheng Yang)
- Support --guestmount (Dongsheng Yang)
- 'perf probe':
- Support showing source code, asking for variables to be collected
at probe time and other 'perf probe' operations that use DWARF
information.
This supports only binaries with debugging information at this
time, detached debuginfo (aka debuginfo packages) support should
come in later patches (Masami Hiramatsu)
- 'perf record':
- Rename --no-delay option to --no-buffering, better reflecting its
purpose and freeing up '--delay' to take the place of
'--initial-delay', so that 'record' and 'stat' are consistent
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Default the -t/--thread option to no inheritance (Adrian Hunter)
- Make per-cpu mmaps the default (Adrian Hunter)
- 'perf report':
- Improve callchain processing performance (Frederic Weisbecker)
- Retain bfd reference to lookup source line numbers, greatly
optimizing, among other use cases, 'perf report -s srcline'
(Adrian Hunter)
- Improve callchain processing performance even more (Namhyung Kim)
- Add a perf.data file header window in the 'perf report' TUI,
associated with the 'i' hotkey, providing a counterpart to the
--header option in the stdio UI (Namhyung Kim)
- 'perf script':
- Add an option in 'perf script' to print the source line number
(Adrian Hunter)
- Add --header/--header-only options to 'script' and 'report', the
default is not tho show the header info, but as this has been the
default for some time, leave a single line explaining how to
obtain that information (Jiri Olsa)
- Add options to show comm, fork, exit and mmap PERF_RECORD_ events
(Namhyung Kim)
- Print callchains and symbols if they exist (David Ahern)
- 'perf timechart'

numeric value is provided, that run more than given duration
(Stanislav Fomichev)
- 'perf top':
- Make 'perf top -g' refer to callchains, for consistency with
other tools (David Ahern)
- 'perf trace':
- Handle old kernels where the "raw_syscalls" tracepoints were
called plain "syscalls" (David Ahern)
- Remove thread summary coloring, by Pekka Enberg.
- Honour -m option in 'trace', the tool was offering the option to
set the mmap size, but wasn't using it when doing the actual mmap
on the events file descriptors (Jiri Olsa)
- generic:
- Backport libtraceevent plugin support (trace-cmd repository, with
plugins for jbd2, hrtimer, kmem, kvm, mac80211, sched_switch,
function, xen, scsi, cfg80211 (Jiri Olsa)
- Print session information only if --stdio is given (Namhyung Kim)

build-test) (Namhyung Kim)
- Get rid of die() and friends (good riddance!) in libtraceevent
(Namhyung Kim)

being propagated to the feature tests, leading to features being
tested in the host and then being enabled on the target (Mark
Rutland)
- Improve forked workload error reporting by sending the errno in the
signal data queueing integer field, using sigqueue and by doing the
signal setup in the evlist methods, removing open coded equivalents
in various tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Do more auto exit cleanup chores in the 'evlist' destructor, so
that the tools don't have to all do that sequence (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)

Pull core debug changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Currently there are two methods to set the panic_timeout: via
'panic=X' boot commandline option, or via /proc/sys/kernel/panic.
This tree adds a third panic_timeout configuration method:
configuration via Kconfig, via CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT=X - useful to
distros that generally want their kernel defaults to come with the
.config.
CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT defaults to 0, which was the previous default
value of panic_timeout.
Doing that unearthed a few arch trickeries regarding arch-special
panic_timeout values and related complications - hopefully all
resolved to the satisfaction of everyone"

A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(),
even though there is no need to order prior stores against later
loads. Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these
situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way
to make use of them.
This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() to remedy this situation. The new
smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against
any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release()
primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or
writes. These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be
implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical
hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional
expense on most architectures.
In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference()
and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial
improvements in readability. It therefore seems likely that
replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits. It appears
that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code
might be so replaced.

In EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON() we check to see if the stack pointer (r1)
is valid when coming from the kernel. If it's not valid, we die but
with a nice oops message.
Currently we allocate a stack frame (subtract INT_FRAME_SIZE) before we
check to see if the stack pointer is negative. Unfortunately, this
won't detect a bad stack where r1 is less than INT_FRAME_SIZE.
This patch fixes the check to compare the modified r1 with
-INT_FRAME_SIZE. With this, bad kernel stack pointers (including NULL
pointers) are correctly detected again.
Kudos to Paulus for finding this.

The powerpc lock acquisition sequence is as follows:
lwarx; cmpwi; bne; stwcx.; lwsync;
Lock release is as follows:
lwsync; stw;
If CPU 0 does a store (say, x=1) then a lock release, and CPU 1
does a lock acquisition then a load (say, r1=y), then there is
no guarantee of a full memory barrier between the store to 'x'
and the load from 'y'. To see this, suppose that CPUs 0 and 1
are hardware threads in the same core that share a store buffer,
and that CPU 2 is in some other core, and that CPU 2 does the
following:
y = 1; sync; r2 = x;
If 'x' and 'y' are both initially zero, then the lock
acquisition and release sequences above can result in r1 and r2
both being equal to zero, which could not happen if unlock+lock
was a full barrier.
This commit therefore makes powerpc's
smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() be a full barrier.

Commit ce11e48b7fdd256ec68b932a89b397a790566031 ("KVM: PPC: E500: Add

stack of kvmppc_vcpu_run(). thread_struct is 1152 bytes on my build,
compared to 48 bytes for the recently-introduced "struct debug_reg".
Use the latter instead.
This fixes the following error:

In pte_alloc_one(), pgtable_page_ctor() is passed an address that has
not been converted by page_address() to the newly allocated PTE page.
When the PTE is freed, __pte_free_tlb() calls pgtable_page_dtor()
with an address to the PTE page that has been converted by page_address().
The mismatch in the PTE's page address causes pgtable_page_dtor() to access
invalid memory, so resources for that PTE (such as the page lock) is not
properly cleaned up.
On PPC32, only SMP kernels are affected.
On PPC64, only SMP kernels with 4K page size are affected.
This bug was introduced by commit d614bb041209fd7cb5e4b35e11a7b2f6ee8f62b8
"powerpc: Move the pte free routines from common header".
On a preempt-rt kernel, a spinlock is dynamically allocated for each
PTE in pgtable_page_ctor(). When the PTE is freed, calling
pgtable_page_dtor() with a mismatched page address causes a memory leak,
as the pointer to the PTE's spinlock is bogus.
On mainline, there isn't any immediately obvious symptoms, but the
problem still exists here.

As soon as we get back to our "highmem" handler in virtual address
space we may get preempted. Today the reason we can get preempted is
that we replay interrupts and all the lazy logic thinks we have
interrupts enabled.
However, it's not hard to make the code interruptible and that way
we can enable and handle interrupts even earlier.
This fixes random guest crashes that happened with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
for me.

pSeries continue to set the timeout to 10 seconds at run-time.
Thus, there's a small window where we don't have the correct
value on pSeries, but if this is only run-time discoverable we
don't have a better option. In any case, if the user changes the
default setting of 180 seconds, we honor that user setting.

When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP option is used in kernel, makedumpfile fails
to filter vmcore dump as it fails to do vmemmap translations. So far
dump filtering on ppc64 never had to deal with vmemmap addresses seperately
as vmemmap regions where mapped in zone normal. But with the inclusion of
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP config option in kernel, this vmemmap address
translation support becomes necessary for dump filtering. For vmemmap adress
translation, few kernel symbols are needed by dump filtering tool. This patch
adds those symbols to vmcoreinfo, which a dump filtering tool can use for
filtering the kernel dump. Tested this changes successfully with makedumpfile
tool that supports vmemmap to physical address translation outside zone normal.

Up until now we have only used cpu_to_chip_id() in the topology code,
which is only used on SMP builds. However my recent commit a4da0d5
"Implement arch_get_random_long/int() for powernv" added a usage when
SMP=n, breaking the build.
Move cpu_to_chip_id() into prom.c so it is available for SMP=n builds.
We would move the extern to prom.h, but that breaks the include in
topology.h. Instead we leave it in smp.h, but move it out of the
CONFIG_SMP #ifdef. We also need to include asm/smp.h in rng.c, because
the linux version skips asm/smp.h on UP. What a mess.

Pull powerpc LE updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"With my previous pull request I mentioned some remaining Little Endian
patches, notably support for our new ABI, which I was sitting on
making sure it was all finalized.
The toolchain folks confirmed it now, the new ABI is stable and merged
with gcc, so we are all good. Oh and we actually missed the actual
Kconfig switch for LE so here it is, along with a couple more bug
fixes.
I have more fixes but not related to LE so I'll send them as a
separate pull request tomorrow, let's get this one out of the way.
Note that this supports running user space binaries using the new ABI,
but the kernel itself still needs to be built with the old one. We'll
bring fixes for that after -rc1.
Here's Anton log that goes with this series:
This patch series adds support for the new ABI, LPAR support for
H_SET_MODE and finally adds a kconfig option and defconfig.
ABIv2 support was recently committed to binutils and gcc, and should
be merged into glibc soon. There are a number of very nice
improvements including the removal of function descriptors. Rusty's
kernel patches allow binaries of either ABI to work, easing the
transition"

Little endian ppc64 is getting an exciting new ABI. This is reflected
by the bottom two bits of e_flags in the ELF header:
0 == legacy binaries (v1 ABI)
1 == binaries using the old ABI (compiled with a new toolchain)
2 == binaries using the new ABI.
We store this in a thread flag, because we need to set it in core
dumps and for signal delivery. Our chief concern is that it doesn't
use function descriptors.

side: the HV and emulation flavors can now coexist in a single kernel

On the x86 side there are nested virtualization improvements and a few
bugfixes.
ARM got transparent huge page support, improved overcommit, and
support for big endian guests.
Finally, there is a new interface to connect KVM with VFIO. This
helps with devices that use NoSnoop PCI transactions, letting the
driver in the guest execute WBINVD instructions. This includes some
nVidia cards on Windows, that fail to start without these patches and

Currently xol_get_insn_slot() assumes that we should simply copy
arch_uprobe->insn[] which is (ignoring arch_uprobe_analyze_insn)
just the copy of the original insn.
This is not true for arm which needs to create another insn to
execute it out-of-line.
So this patch simply adds the new member, ->ixol into the union.
This doesn't make any difference for x86 and powerpc, but arm
can divorce insn/ixol and initialize the correct xol insn in
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn().

When restoring the PPR value, we incorrectly access the thread structure
at a time where MSR:RI is clear, which means we cannot recover from nested
faults. However the thread structure isn't covered by the "bolted" SLB
entries and thus accessing can fault.
This fixes it by splitting the code so that the PPR value is loaded into
a GPR before MSR:RI is cleared.
