2015-06-27Merge tag 'trace-v4.2' of ↵Linus Torvalds2-4/+4
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "This patch series contains several clean ups and even a new trace clock "monitonic raw". Also some enhancements to make the ring buffer even faster. But the biggest and most noticeable change is the renaming of the ftrace* files, structures and variables that have to deal with trace events. Over the years I've had several developers tell me about their confusion with what ftrace is compared to events. Technically, "ftrace" is the infrastructure to do the function hooks, which include tracing and also helps with live kernel patching. But the trace events are a separate entity altogether, and the files that affect the trace events should not be named "ftrace". These include: include/trace/ftrace.h -> include/trace/trace_events.h include/linux/ftrace_event.h -> include/linux/trace_events.h Also, functions that are specific for trace events have also been renamed: ftrace_print_*() -> trace_print_*() (un)register_ftrace_event() -> (un)register_trace_event() ftrace_event_name() -> trace_event_name() ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled() -> trace_trigger_soft_disabled() ftrace_define_fields_##call() -> trace_define_fields_##call() ftrace_get_offsets_##call() -> trace_get_offsets_##call() Structures have been renamed: ftrace_event_file -> trace_event_file ftrace_event_{call,class} -> trace_event_{call,class} ftrace_event_buffer -> trace_event_buffer ftrace_subsystem_dir -> trace_subsystem_dir ftrace_event_raw_##call -> trace_event_raw_##call ftrace_event_data_offset_##call-> trace_event_data_offset_##call ftrace_event_type_funcs_##call -> trace_event_type_funcs_##call And a few various variables and flags have also been updated. This has been sitting in linux-next for some time, and I have not heard a single complaint about this rename breaking anything. Mostly because these functions, variables and structures are mostly internal to the tracing system and are seldom (if ever) used by anything external to that" * tag 'trace-v4.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (33 commits) ring_buffer: Allow to exit the ring buffer benchmark immediately ring-buffer-benchmark: Fix the wrong type ring-buffer-benchmark: Fix the wrong param in module_param ring-buffer: Add enum names for the context levels ring-buffer: Remove useless unused tracing_off_permanent() ring-buffer: Give NMIs a chance to lock the reader_lock ring-buffer: Add trace_recursive checks to ring_buffer_write() ring-buffer: Allways do the trace_recursive checks ring-buffer: Move recursive check to per_cpu descriptor ring-buffer: Add unlikelys to make fast path the default tracing: Rename ftrace_get_offsets_##call() to trace_event_get_offsets_##call() tracing: Rename ftrace_define_fields_##call() to trace_event_define_fields_##call() tracing: Rename ftrace_event_type_funcs_##call to trace_event_type_funcs_##call tracing: Rename ftrace_data_offset_##call to trace_event_data_offset_##call tracing: Rename ftrace_raw_##call event structures to trace_event_raw_##call tracing: Rename ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled() to trace_trigger_soft_disabled() tracing: Rename FTRACE_EVENT_FL_* flags to EVENT_FILE_FL_* tracing: Rename struct ftrace_subsystem_dir to trace_subsystem_dir tracing: Rename ftrace_event_name() to trace_event_name() tracing: Rename FTRACE_MAX_EVENT to TRACE_EVENT_TYPE_MAX ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki: "The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected places perspective. The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the majority of cases. From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be based on it going forward. Also included is an update of the ACPI device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object. The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points. There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on the last minute for 4.1. Specifics: - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150515 including basic support for ACPI 6 features: new ACPI tables introduced by ACPI 6 (STAO, XENV, WPBT, NFIT, IORT), changes related to the other tables (DTRM, FADT, LPIT, MADT), new predefined names (_BTH, _CR3, _DSD, _LPI, _MTL, _PRR, _RDI, _RST, _TFP, _TSN), fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng). - ACPI device power management core code update to follow ACPI 6 which reflects the ACPI device power management implementation in Windows (Rafael J Wysocki). - rework of the backlight interface selection logic to reduce the number of kernel command line options and improve the handling of DMI quirks that may be involved in that and to make the code generally more straightforward (Hans de Goede). - fixes for the ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) driver related to the handling of EC transactions (Lv Zheng). - fix for a regression related to the ACPI resources management and resulting from a recent change of ACPI initialization code ordering (Rafael J Wysocki). - fix for a system initialization regression related to ACPI introduced during the 3.14 cycle and caused by running the code that switches the platform over to the ACPI mode too early in the initialization sequence (Rafael J Wysocki). - support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object related to DMA cache coherence (Suravee Suthikulpanit). - ACPI/APEI fixes and cleanups (Jiri Kosina, Borislav Petkov). - ACPI battery driver cleanups (Luis Henriques, Mathias Krause). - ACPI processor driver cleanups (Hanjun Guo). - cleanups and documentation update related to the ACPI device properties interface based on _DSD (Rafael J Wysocki). - ACPI device power management fixes (Rafael J Wysocki). - assorted cleanups related to ACPI (Dominik Brodowski, Fabian Frederick, Lorenzo Pieralisi, Mathias Krause, Rafael J Wysocki). - fix for a long-standing issue causing General Protection Faults to be generated occasionally on return to user space after resume from ACPI-based suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 (Ingo Molnar). - fix to make the suspend core code return -EBUSY consistently in all cases when system suspend is aborted due to wakeup detection (Ruchi Kandoi). - support for automated device wakeup IRQ handling allowing drivers to make their PM support more starightforward (Tony Lindgren). - new tracepoints for suspend-to-idle tracing and rework of the prepare/complete callbacks tracing in the PM core (Todd E Brandt, Rafael J Wysocki). - wakeup sources framework enhancements (Jin Qian). - new macro for noirq system PM callbacks (Grygorii Strashko). - assorted cleanups related to system suspend (Rafael J Wysocki). - cpuidle core cleanups to make the code more efficient (Rafael J Wysocki). - powernv/pseries cpuidle driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat). - cpufreq core fixes related to CPU online/offline that should reduce the overhead of these operations quite a bit, unless the CPU in question is physically going away (Viresh Kumar, Saravana Kannan). - serialization of cpufreq governor callbacks to avoid race conditions in some cases (Viresh Kumar). - intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups (Doug Smythies, Prarit Bhargava, Joe Konno). - cpufreq driver (arm_big_little, cpufreq-dt, qoriq) updates (Sudeep Holla, Felipe Balbi, Tang Yuantian). - assorted cleanups in cpufreq drivers and core (Shailendra Verma, Fabian Frederick, Wang Long). - new Device Tree bindings for representing Operating Performance Points (Viresh Kumar). - updates for the common clock operations support code in the PM core (Rajendra Nayak, Geert Uytterhoeven). - PM domains core code update (Geert Uytterhoeven). - Intel Knights Landing support for the RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) power capping driver (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli). - fixes related to the floor frequency setting on Atom SoCs in the RAPL power capping driver (Ajay Thomas). -

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar: "There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat - so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request, collected into the 'x86/core' topic. The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good - but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the end. The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will have fewer dependencies). The main changes in this cycle were: * x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas Gleixner) - This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86 interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt domains: [IOAPIC domain] ----- | [MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ] | (optional) | [HPET MSI domain] ----- | | [DMAR domain] ----------------------------- | [Legacy domain] ----------------------------- This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet and the vector management. - Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt injection into guests (Feng Wu) * x86/asm changes: - Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski, Brian Gerst) - Moved all system entry related code to a new home under arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar) - Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations. Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does not rely on them (Ingo Molnar) - NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov) * x86/mm changes: - Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers - in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov) - New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani) * x86/ras changes: - Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan) This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as far as possible. - Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system- wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj) - Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov) * x86/platform changes: - Intel Atom SoC updates ... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the shortlog and the Git log for details" * 'x86-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (222 commits) x86/hpet: Use proper hpet device number for MSI allocation x86/hpet: Check for irq==0 when allocating hpet MSI interrupts x86/mm/pat, drivers/infiniband/ipath: Use arch_phys_wc_add() and require PAT disabled x86/mm/pat, drivers/media/ivtv: Use arch_phys_wc_add() and require PAT disabled x86/platform/intel/baytrail: Add comments about why we disabled HPET on Baytrail genirq: Prevent crash in irq_move_irq() genirq: Enhance irq_data_to_desc() to support hierarchy irqdomain iommu, x86: Properly handle posted interrupts for IOMMU hotplug iommu, x86: Provide irq_remapping_cap() interface iommu, x86: Setup Posted-Interrupts capability for Intel iommu iommu, x86: Add cap_pi_support() to detect VT-d PI capability iommu, x86: Avoid migrating VT-d posted interrupts iommu, x86: Save the mode (posted or remapped) of an IRTE iommu, x86: Implement irq_set_vcpu_affinity for intel_ir_chip iommu: dmar: Provide helper to copy shared irte fields iommu: dmar: Extend struct irte for VT-d Posted-Interrupts iommu: Add new member capability to struct irq_remap_ops x86/asm/entry/64: Disentangle error_entry/exit gsbase/ebx/usermode code x86/asm/entry/32: Shorten __audit_syscall_entry() args preparation x86/asm/entry/32: Explain reloading of registers after __audit_syscall_entry() ...

2015-06-19perf tools: Ensure thread-stack is flushedAdrian Hunter5-5/+58
The thread-stack represents a thread's current stack. When a thread exits there can still be many functions on the stack e.g. exit() can be called many levels deep, so all the callers will never return. To get that information output, the thread-stack must be flushed. Previously it was assumed the thread-stack would be flushed when the struct thread was deleted. With thread ref-counting it is no longer clear when that will be, if ever. So instead explicitly flush all the thread-stacks at the end of a session.

2015-06-19powerpc/tm: Abort syscalls in active transactionsSam bobroff2-3/+4
This patch changes the syscall handler to doom (tabort) active transactions when a syscall is made and return very early without performing the syscall and keeping side effects to a minimum (no CPU accounting or system call tracing is performed). Also included is a new HWCAP2 bit, PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC, to indicate this behaviour to userspace. Currently, the system call instruction automatically suspends an active transaction which causes side effects to persist when an active transaction fails. This does change the kernel's behaviour, but in a way that was documented as unsupported. It doesn't reduce functionality as syscalls will still be performed after tsuspend; it just requires that the transaction be explicitly suspended. It also provides a consistent interface and makes the behaviour of user code substantially the same across powerpc and platforms that do not support suspended transactions (e.g. x86 and s390). Performance measurements using http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c indicate the cost of a normal (non-aborted) system call increases by about 0.25%.

In 0c4a5fc95b1df (Add leap-second timer edge testing to leap-a-day.c), we added a timer to the test which checks to make sure timers near the leapsecond edge behave correctly. However, the output generated from the timer uses ctime_r, which isn't async-signal safe, and should that signal land while the main test is using ctime_r to print its output, its possible for the test to deadlock on glibc internal locks. Thus this patch reworks the output to avoid using ctime_r in the signal handler.

Some/all fds associated with the perf-events (tracepoints) go into a POLLHUP/ POLLERR state and the mmap region associated with those events are unmapped (in perf_evlist__filter_pollfd()). But we go back and do a perf_evlist__mmap_read() which assumes that the mmaps are still valid and we hit the crash. If the mapping for an event is released, its refcnt is 0 (and ->base is NULL), so ensure we have non-zero refcount before accessing the map. Note that perf-record has a similar logic but unlike perf-trace, the record__mmap_read_all() checks the evlist->mmap[i].base before accessing the map.

When the last part of converted events are blacklisted or out-of-text, those are skipped and perf probe doesn't show usage examples. This fixes it to show the example even if the last part of event list is skipped. E.g. without this patch, events are added, but suddenly end: # perf probe vfs_* vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it. vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it. Added new events: probe:vfs_fallocate (on vfs_*) probe:vfs_open (on vfs_*) ... probe:vfs_dentry_acceptable (on vfs_*) probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*) # With this fix: # perf probe vfs_* vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it. vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it. Added new events: probe:vfs_fallocate (on vfs_*) ... probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:vfs_load_quota_inode -aR sleep 1 Note that this can be reproduced ONLY IF the vfs_caches_init* is the last part of matched symbol list.

2015-06-16perf probe: Fix to return error if no probe is addedMasami Hiramatsu1-42/+71
Fix perf probe to return an error if no probe is added due to the given probe point being on the blacklist. To fix this problem, this moves the blacklist checking to right after finding symbols/probe-points and marks them as skipped. If all the symbols are skipped, "perf probe" returns an error as it fails to find the corresponding probe address. E.g. currently if a blacklisted probe is given: # perf probe do_trap && echo 'succeed' Added new event: Warning: Skipped probing on blacklisted function: sync_regs succeed No! It must fail! With this patch, it correctly fails: # perf probe do_trap && echo 'succeed' do_trap is blacklisted function, skip it. Probe point 'do_trap' not found. Error: Failed to add events.

So I've updated the leap-a-day.c test to integrate a similar test, where we set a timer and check if it triggers at the right time, and if the ntp state transition is managed properly.
