      perf: Stop all counters on reboot · c277443c
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      Use the reboot notifier to detach all running counters on reboot, this
      solves a problem with kexec where the new kernel doesn't expect
      running counters (rightly so).
      
      It will however decrease the coverage of the NMI watchdog. Making a
      kexec specific reboot notifier callback would be best, however that
      would require touching all notifier callback handlers as they are not
      properly structured to deal with new state.
      
      As a compromise, place the perf reboot notifier at the very last
      position in the list.

      PM / Hibernate: Fix memory corruption related to swap · c9e664f1
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of
      a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents
      of different memory pages while the image is being saved.  Since the
      kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory
      corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on
      systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often.
      
      This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear
      in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the
      saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or
      the hibernation is aborted.  Unfortunately, for this purpose
      it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and
      suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask.
      
      This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.

      PM / Hibernate: Use async I/O when reading compressed hibernation image · 9f339caf
      Bojan Smojver authored
      This is a fix for reading LZO compressed image using async I/O.
      Essentially, instead of having just one page into which we keep
      reading blocks from swap, we allocate enough of them to cover the
      largest compressed size and then let block I/O pick them all up. Once
      we have them all (and here we wait), we decompress them, as usual.
      Obviously, the very first block we still pick up synchronously,
      because we need to know the size of the lot before we pick up the
      rest.
      
      Also fixed the copyright line, which I've forgotten before.

      Changes in v5:

      - Rescheduling optimizer outside of kprobe mutex lock.
      
      Changes in v2:
      - Allocate code buffer and parameters in arch_init_kprobes()
        instead of using static arraies.
      - Merge previous max optimization limit patch into this patch.
        So, this patch introduces upper limit of optimization at
        once.

      text areas with one stop_machine() on SMP. Because calling
      stop_machine() is heavy task, it is better to aggregate
      text_poke requests.
      
      ( Note: I've talked with Rusty about this interface, and
        he would not like to expand stop_machine() interface, since
        it is not for generic use. )

      kprobes: Support delayed unoptimizing · 6274de49
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      Unoptimization occurs when a probe is unregistered or disabled,
      and is heavy because it recovers instructions by using
      stop_machine(). This patch delays unoptimization operations and
      unoptimize several probes at once by using
      text_poke_smp_batch(). This can avoid unexpected system slowdown
      coming from stop_machine().
      
      Changes in v5:
      - Split this patch into several cleanup patches and this patch.
      - Fix some text_mutex lock miss.
      - Use bool instead of int for behavior flags.
      - Add additional comment for (un)optimizing path.
      
      Changes in v2:
      - Use dynamic allocated buffers and params.

      perf session: Sort all events if ordered_samples=true · cbf41645

      Now that we have timestamps on FORK, EXIT, COMM, MMAP events we can
      sort everything in time order. This fixes the following observed

      mmap(file1) -> pagefault() -> munmap(file1)
      mmap(file2) -> pagefault() -> munmap(file2)
      
      Resulted in decoding both pagefaults in file2 because the file1 map
      was already replaced by the file2 map when the map address was
      identical.
      
      With all events sorted we decode both pagefaults correctly.

      perf hist: Better displaying of unresolved DSOs and symbols · 1437a30a
      Ian Munsie authored
      In the event that a DSO has not been identified, just print out [unknown]
      instead of the instruction pointer as we previously were doing, which is pretty
      meaningless for a shared object (at least to the users perspective).
      
      The IP we print out is fairly meaningless in general anyway - it's just one
      (the first) of the many addresses that were lumped together as unidentified,
      and could span many shared objects and symbols. In reality if we see this
      [unknown] output then the report -D output is going to be more useful anyway as
      we can see all the different address that it represents.
      
      If we are printing the symbols we are still going to see this IP in that column
      anyway since they shouldn't resolve either.
      
      This patch also changes the symbol address printouts so that they print out 0x
      before the address, are left aligned, and changes the %L format string (which
      relies on a glibc bug) to %ll.

      ARM: 6524/1: GIC irq desciptor bug fix · 87507500
      Chao Xie authored
      gic_set_cpu will directly use irq_desc[]. If CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ is
      enabled, there is no irq_desc[]. So we need use irq_to_desc(irq) to
      get the descriptor for irq.

      Because it caused a chroot ttyname regression in 2.6.36.
      
      As of 2.6.36 ttyname does not work in a chroot.  It has already been
      reported that screen breaks, and for me this breaks an automated
      distribution testsuite, that I need to preserve the ability to run the
      existing binaries on for several more years.  glibc 2.11.3 which has a
      fix for this is not an option.
      
      The root cause of this breakage is:
      
          commit 8df9d1a4
          Author: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

          Prepend "(unreachable)" to path strings if the path is not reachable
          from the current root.
      
          Two places updated are
           - the return string from getcwd()
           - and symlinks under /proc/$PID.
      
          Other uses of d_path() are left unchanged (we know that some old

      First column is the cpu and the second the timestamp.
      
      That way we can investigate problems in the event stream.
      
      If the new perf binary is run on an older kernel, it will disable this feature
      automatically.

      perf session: Parse sample earlier · 640c03ce
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      At perf_session__process_event, so that we reduce the number of lines in eache
      tool sample processing routine that now receives a sample_data pointer already
      parsed.
      
      This will also be useful in the next patch, where we'll allow sample the
      identity fields in MMAP, FORK, EXIT, etc, when it will be possible to see (cpu,
      timestamp) just after before every event.
      
      Also validate callchains in perf_session__process_event, i.e. as early as
      possible, and keep a counter of the number of events discarded due to invalid
      callchains, warning the user about it if it happens.
      
      There is an assumption that was kept that all events have the same sample_type,
      that will be dealt with in the future, when this preexisting limitation will be
      removed.

      perf events: Make sample_type identity fields available in all PERF_RECORD_ events · c980d109
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      If perf_event_attr.sample_id_all is set it will add the PERF_SAMPLE_ identity
      info:
      
      TID, TIME, ID, CPU, STREAM_ID
      
      As a trailer, so that older perf tools can process new files, just ignoring the
      extra payload.
      
      With this its possible to do further analysis on problems in the event stream,
      like detecting reordering of MMAP and FORK events, etc.
      
      V2: Fixup header size in comm, mmap and task processing, as we have to take into
      account different sample_types for each matching event, noticed by Thomas Gleixner.
      
      Thomas also noticed a problem in v2 where if we didn't had space in the buffer we
      wouldn't restore the header size.
