      Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

. perf probe: Fix segfault due to testing the wrong pointer for NULL,
  from Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli.

. libtraceevent: Remove hard coded include to /usr/local/include in
  Makefile, which causes cross builds to include host header files,
  fix from Jack Mitchell.

. perf record: Use the right target interface for synthesizing
  threads when --cpu/-C option is used, fix from Jiri Olsa.

. Check if -DFORTIFY_SOURCE=2 is allowed, as gcc 4.7.2 defines
  it and then the build is broken when it is redefined in perf,
  fix from Marcin Slusarz.

. Fix build with NO_NEWT=1, that can happen explicitely or when
  the newt-devel package is not installed, from Michael Ellerman.

. perf/POWER7: Create a sysfs format entry for Power7 events, missing
  patch from a patchseries already merged, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu.

. Fix LIBNUMA build with glibc 2.12 and older, from Vinson Lee.

      perf: Generate EXIT event only once per task context · d610d98b
      Namhyung Kim authored 
      perf_event_task_event() iterates pmu list and generate events
for each eligible pmu context.  But if task_event has task_ctx
like in EXIT it'll generate events even though the pmu doesn't
have an eligible one. Fix it by moving the code to proper
places.

Before this patch:

  $ perf record -n true
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.006 MB perf.data (~248 samples) ]

  $ perf report -D | tail
  Aggregated stats:
             TOTAL events:         73
              MMAP events:         67
              COMM events:          2
              EXIT events:          4
  cycles stats:
             TOTAL events:         73
              MMAP events:         67
              COMM events:          2
              EXIT events:          4

After this patch:

  $ perf report -D | tail
  Aggregated stats:
             TOTAL events:         70
              MMAP events:         67
              COMM events:          2
              EXIT events:          1
  cycles stats:
             TOTAL events:         70
              MMAP events:         67
              COMM events:          2
              EXIT events:          1

      perf: Reset hwc->last_period on sw clock events · 778141e3
      Namhyung Kim authored 
      When cpu/task clock events are initialized, their sampling
frequencies are converted to have a fixed value.  However it
missed to update the hwc->last_period which was set to 1 for
initial sampling frequency calibration.

Because this hwc->last_period value is used as a period in
perf_swevent_ hrtime(), every recorded sample will have an
incorrected period of 1.

  $ perf record -e task-clock noploop 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.158 MB perf.data (~6919 samples) ]

  $ perf report -n --show-total-period  --stdio
  # Samples: 4K of event 'task-clock'
  # Event count (approx.): 4000
  #
  # Overhead       Samples        Period  Command  Shared Object              Symbol
  # ........  ............  ............  .......  .............  ..................
  #
      99.95%          3998          3998  noploop  noploop        [.] main
       0.03%             1             1  noploop  libc-2.15.so   [.] init_cacheinfo
       0.03%             1             1  noploop  ld-2.15.so     [.] open_verify

Note that it doesn't affect the non-sampling event so that the
perf stat still gets correct value with or without this patch.

  $ perf stat -e task-clock noploop 1

   Performance counter stats for 'noploop 1':

         1000.272525 task-clock                #    1.000 CPUs utilized

         1.000560605 seconds time elapsed
