Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"Included in this series are:
1. BE8 (modern big endian) changes for ARM from Ben Dooks
2. big.Little support from Nicolas Pitre and Dave Martin
3. support for LPAE systems with all system memory above 4GB
4. Perf updates from Will Deacon
5. Additional prefetching and other performance improvements from Will.
6. Neon-optimised AES implementation fro Ard.
7. A number of smaller fixes scattered around the place.
There is a rather horrid merge conflict in tools/perf - I was never
notified of the conflict because it originally occurred between Will's
tree and other stuff. Consequently I have a resolution which Will
forwarded me, which I'll forward on immediately after sending this
mail.
The other notable thing is I'm expecting some build breakage in the
crypto stuff on ARM only with Ard's AES patches. These were merged
into a stable git branch which others had already pulled, so there's
little I can do about this. The problem is caused because these
patches have a dependency on some code in the crypto git tree - I
tried requesting a branch I can pull to resolve these, and all I got
each time from the crypto people was "we'll revert our patches then"
which would only make things worse since I still don't have the
dependent patches. I've no idea what's going on there or how to
resolve that, and since I can't split these patches from the rest of
this pull request, I'm rather stuck with pushing this as-is or
reverting Ard's patches.
Since it should "come out in the wash" I've left them in - the only
build problems they seem to cause at the moment are with randconfigs,
and since it's a new feature anyway. However, if by -rc1 the
dependencies aren't in, I think it'd be best to revert Ard's patches"
I resolved the perf conflict roughly as per the patch sent by Russell,
but there may be some differences. Any errors are likely mine. Let's
see how the crypto issues work out..

In general, every tracepoint should be zero overhead if it is disabled.
However, trace_mm_page_alloc_extfrag() is one of exception. It evaluate
"new_type == start_migratetype" even if tracepoint is disabled.
However, the code can be moved into tracepoint's TP_fast_assign() and
TP_fast_assign exist exactly such purpose. This patch does it.

When there are processes heavily creating small files while sync(2) is
running, it can easily happen that quite some new files are created
between WB_SYNC_NONE and WB_SYNC_ALL pass of sync(2). That can happen
especially if there are several busy filesystems (remember that sync
traverses filesystems sequentially and waits in WB_SYNC_ALL phase on one
fs before starting it on another fs). Because WB_SYNC_ALL pass is slow
(e.g. causes a transaction commit and cache flush for each inode in
ext3), resulting sync(2) times are rather large.
The following script reproduces the problem:
function run_writers
{
for (( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )); do
mkdir $1/dir$i
for (( j = 0; j < 40000; j++ )); do
dd if=/dev/zero of=$1/dir$i/$j bs=4k count=4 &>/dev/null
done &
done
}
for dir in "$@"; do
run_writers $dir
done
sleep 40
time sync
Fix the problem by disregarding inodes dirtied after sync(2) was called
in the WB_SYNC_ALL pass. To allow for this, sync_inodes_sb() now takes
a time stamp when sync has started which is used for setting up work for
flusher threads.
To give some numbers, when above script is run on two ext4 filesystems
on simple SATA drive, the average sync time from 10 runs is 267.549
seconds with standard deviation 104.799426. With the patched kernel,
the average sync time from 10 runs is 2.995 seconds with standard
deviation 0.096.

The loops which SPI controller drivers use to process the list of transfers
in a spi_message are typically very similar and have some error prone areas
such as the handling of /CS. Help simplify drivers by factoring this code
out into the core - if drivers provide a transfer_one() function instead
of a transfer_one_message() function the core will handle processing at the
message level.
/CS can be controlled by either setting cs_gpio or providing a set_cs
function. If this is not possible for hardware reasons then both can be
omitted and the driver should continue to implement manual /CS handling.
This is a first step in refactoring and it is expected that there will be
further enhancements, for example factoring out of the mapping of transfers
for DMA and the initiation and completion of interrupt driven transfers.

The unpacked_lun field in the SCSI target tracepoints should be
initialized with cmd->orig_fe_lun rather than cmd->se_lun->unpacked_lun
for two reasons:
- most importantly, if we are in the cmd_complete tracepoint
returning a check condition due to no LUN found, cmd->se_lun will
be NULL and we'll crash trying to dereference it.
- also, in any case, cmd->se_lun->unpacked_lun is an internal index
into the target's internal set of LUNs; cmd->orig_fe_lun is much
more useful and interesting, since it's the value the initiator
actually sent.

We need a few special preempt_count accessors:
- task_preempt_count() for when we're interested in the preemption
count of another (non-running) task.
- init_task_preempt_count() for properly initializing the preemption
count.
- init_idle_preempt_count() a special case of the above for the idle
threads.
With these no generic code ever touches thread_info::preempt_count
anymore and architectures could choose to remove it.

When tracing switching, an external tracer needs a way to bootstrap
its knowledge of the logical<->physical CPU mapping.
This patch adds a sysfs attribute trace_trigger. A write to this
attribute will generate a power:cpu_migrate_current event for each
online CPU, indicating the current physical CPU for each logical
CPU.
Activating or deactivating the switcher also generates these
events, so that the tracer knows about the resulting remapping of
affected CPUs.
Signed-off-by: Dave Martin <dave.martin@linaro.org>

This patch adds simple trace events to the b.L switcher code
to allow tracing of CPU migration events.
To make use of the trace events, you will need:
CONFIG_FTRACE=y
CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS=y
The following events are added:
* power:cpu_migrate_begin
* power:cpu_migrate_finish
each with the following data:
u64 timestamp;
u32 cpu_hwid;
power:cpu_migrate_begin occurs immediately before the
switcher-specific migration operations start.
power:cpu_migrate_finish occurs immediately when migration is
completed.
The cpu_hwid field contains the ID fields of the MPIDR.
* For power:cpu_migrate_begin, cpu_hwid is the ID of the outbound
physical CPU (equivalent to (from_phys_cpu,from_phys_cluster)).
* For power:cpu_migrate_finish, cpu_hwid is the ID of the inbound
physical CPU (equivalent to (to_phys_cpu,to_phys_cluster)).
By design, the cpu_hwid field is masked in the same way as the
device tree cpu node reg property, allowing direct correlation to
the DT description of the hardware.
The timestamp is added in order to minimise timing noise. An
accurate system-wide clock should be used for generating this
(hopefully getnstimeofday is appropriate, but it could be changed).
It could be any monotonic shared clock, since the aim is to allow
accurate deltas to be computed. We don't necessarily care about
accurate synchronisation with wall clock time.
In practice, each switch takes place on a single logical CPU,
and the trace infrastructure should guarantee that events are
well-ordered with respect to a single logical CPU.

The event-tracing macros do not like bool tracing arguments, so this
commit makes them be of type char. This change has the knock-on effect
of making it illegal to pass a pointer into one of these arguments, so
also change rcutiny's first call to trace_rcu_batch_end() to convert
from pointer to boolean, prefixing with "!!".

This commit adds tracing to the normal grace-period request points.
These are rcu_gp_cleanup(), which checks for the need for another
grace period at the end of the previous grace period, and
rcu_start_gp_advanced(), which restarts RCU's state machine after
an idle period. These trace events are intended to help track down
bugs where RCU remains idle despite there being work for it to do.

Pull block IO fixes from Jens Axboe:
"After merge window, no new stuff this time only a collection of neatly
confined and simple fixes"
* 'for-3.12/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
cfq: explicitly use 64bit divide operation for 64bit arguments
block: Add nr_bios to block_rq_remap tracepoint
If the queue is dying then we only call the rq->end_io callout. This leaves bios setup on the request, because the caller assumes when the blk_execute_rq_nowait/blk_execute_rq call has completed that the rq->bios have been cleaned up.
bio-integrity: Fix use of bs->bio_integrity_pool after free

Adding the number of bios in a remapped request to 'block_rq_remap'
tracepoint.
Request remapper clones bios in a request to track the completion
status of each bio. So the number of bios can be useful information

Pull btrfs updates from Chris Mason:
"This is against 3.11-rc7, but was pulled and tested against your tree
as of yesterday. We do have two small incrementals queued up, but I
wanted to get this bunch out the door before I hop on an airplane.
This is a fairly large batch of fixes, performance improvements, and
cleanups from the usual Btrfs suspects.
We've included Stefan Behren's work to index subvolume UUIDs, which is
targeted at speeding up send/receive with many subvolumes or snapshots
in place. It closes a long standing performance issue that was built
in to the disk format.
Mark Fasheh's offline dedup work is also here. In this case offline
means the FS is mounted and active, but the dedup work is not done
inline during file IO. This is a building block where utilities are
able to ask the FS to dedup a series of extents. The kernel takes
care of verifying the data involved really is the same. Today this
involves reading both extents, but we'll continue to evolve the
patches"

tracepoint()
In the current code, the value of fallback_migratetype that is printed
using the mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint, is the value of the
migratetype *after* it has been set to the preferred migratetype (if the
ownership was changed). Obviously that wouldn't have been the original
intent. (We already have a separate 'change_ownership' field to tell
whether the ownership of the pageblock was changed from the
fallback_migratetype to the preferred type.)
The intent of the fallback_migratetype field is to show the migratetype
from which we borrowed pages in order to satisfy the allocation request.
So fix the code to print that value correctly.

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
"New features for 3.12:
- Added aggressive extent caching using the extent status tree. This
can actually decrease memory usage in read-mostly workloads since
the information is much more compactly stored in the extent status
tree than if we had to keep the extent tree metadata blocks in the
buffer cache. This also improves Asynchronous I/O since it is it
makes much less likely that we need to do metadata I/O to lookup
the extent tree information.
- Improve the recovery after corrupted allocation bitmaps are found
when running in errors=ignore mode.

"As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
(--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities. Everyone
please update muscle memory accordingly! :-)

- Performance optimizations:
. for trace events, by Steve Rostedt.

- Core perf events code enhancements and fixes:
. for full-nohz feature handling, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for group events, by Jiri Olsa
. for call chains, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for event stream parsing, by Adrian Hunter
- New ABI details:
. Add attr->mmap2 attribute, by Stephane Eranian
. Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl to return event ID, by Jiri Olsa
. Export u64 time_zero on the mmap header page to allow TSC
calculation, by Adrian Hunter

- Code cleanups and refactorings:
. for nohz-full, by Frederic Weisbecker
. for group events, by Jiri Olsa
- Documentation updates:
. for perf_event_type, by Peter Zijlstra
Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
utilize the above kernel side changes):
- Lots of 'perf trace' enhancements:
. Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
'perf record', by David Ahern.
. Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
one can do:
[root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 25.150 MB perf.data (~1098836 samples) ]

. Introduce better formatting of syscall arguments, including so
far beautifiers for mmap, madvise, syscall return values,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Handle HUGEPAGE defines in the mmap beautifier, by David Ahern.
- 'perf report/top' enhancements:
. Do annotation using /proc/kcore and /proc/kallsyms when
available, removing the forced need for a vmlinux file kernel
assembly annotation. This also improves this use case because
vmlinux has just the initial kernel image, not what is actually
in use after various code patchings by things like alternatives.
By Adrian Hunter.
. Add --ignore-callees=<regex> option to collapse undesired parts
of call graphs, by Greg Price.
. Simplify symbol filtering by doing it at machine class level,
