      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.17-20180403' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
      
      Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
      
      - Show only failing syscalls with 'perf trace --failure' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
      	e.g: See what 'openat' syscalls are failing:
      
        # perf trace --failure -e openat
         762.323 ( 0.007 ms): VideoCapture/4566 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /dev/video2) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
         <SNIP N /dev/videoN open attempts... sigh, where is that improvised camera lid?!? >
         790.228 ( 0.008 ms): VideoCapture/4566 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /dev/video63) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
        ^C#
      
      - Show information about the event (freq, nr_samples, total period/nr_events) in
        the annotate --tui and --stdio2 'perf annotate' output, similar to the
        first line in the 'perf report --tui', but just for the samples for a
        the annotated symbol (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
      - Introduce 'perf version --build-options' to show what features were
        linked, aliased as well as a shorter 'perf -vv' (Jin Yao)
      
      - Add a "dso_size" sort order (Kim Phillips)
      
      - Remove redundant ')' in the tracepoint output in 'perf trace' (Changbin Du)
      
      - Synchronize x86's cpufeatures.h, no effect on toolss (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

      perf trace: Remove redundant ')' · 51125a29

      There is a redundant ')' at the tail of each event. So remove it.

      perf ui browser: Move the extra title lines from the hists browser · ef9ff601
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      This will be useful for the annotate browser as well, that wants to have
      extra title lines, i.e. the current ui_browser unconditionally reserves
      the first line for a browser title and the last one for status messages.
      
      But some browsers, like the buckets one (hists browser) needs extra
      lines to show headers, allowing it to be shown or not, press 'H' in
      'perf top' or 'perf report' to see this feature.
      
      So move that logic to the core ui_browser used by the hists_browser
      ('perf top' and 'perf report' main interface) so that it can be used by
      the annotate browser too.

      perf hists: Move hists__scnprintf_title() away from the TUI code · 25c312db
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      The previous patch made this function useful to non-TUI parts of the
      tools, but left it where the function from what it was carved, so that
      the patch showed more clearly the process.
      
      Now just move it outside the TUI parts so that we can finally use it,
      even when the TUI code doesn't get built/linked.

      perf hists browser: Rename perf_evsel_browser_title to a more descriptive name · f016d24a
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      Rename it to hists_browser__scnprintf_title() to better reflect that it
      provides a scnprintf-like function operating on a hists_browser
      instance.
      
      This paves the way to have a non-hists_browser specific function to
      scnprintf format a title with per evsel information to use in other
      tools or UIs.

        At least on 64-bit x86, it will likely be a hard requirement from
        v4.17 onwards to not call system call functions in the kernel: It is
        better to use use a different calling convention for system calls
        there, where struct pt_regs is decoded on-the-fly in a syscall wrapper
        which then hands processing over to the actual syscall function. This
        means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a
        specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of
        filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the
        time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those
        x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near
        future.
      
        Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel
        data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is
        generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific
        code.
      
        This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the
        kernel with the exception of arch/. On top of this, it cleans up the
        three places where many syscalls are referenced or prototyped, namely
        kernel/sys_ni.c, include/linux/syscalls.h and include/linux/compat.h"

      bitmap: fix memset optimization on big-endian systems · 21035965
      Omar Sandoval authored
      Commit 2a98dc02 ("include/linux/bitmap.h: turn bitmap_set and
      bitmap_clear into memset when possible") introduced an optimization to
      bitmap_{set,clear}() which uses memset() when the start and length are
      constants aligned to a byte.
      
      This is wrong on big-endian systems; our bitmaps are arrays of unsigned
      long, so bit n is not at byte n / 8 in memory.  This was caught by the
      Btrfs selftests, but the bitmap selftests also fail when run on a
      big-endian machine.
      
      We can still use memset if the start and length are aligned to an
      unsigned long, so do that on big-endian.  The same problem applies to
      the memcmp in bitmap_equal(), so fix it there, too.
      
      Fixes: 2a98dc02 ("include/linux/bitmap.h: turn bitmap_set and bitmap_clear into memset when possible")
      Fixes: 2c6deb01 ("bitmap: use memcmp optimisation in more situations")

      Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
       "This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
        m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
        drivers.
      
        I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
        ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
        unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
        respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
        but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
      
        In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
        different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
        charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
        ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
        CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
        seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
        used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
        contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
        maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
      
        [ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
          generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
          microarchitecture and a software ecosystem"   - Linus ]
      
        The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
        https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
        marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I
        made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile,
        mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old
        kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel
        releases.
      
        After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
        gcc support:
      
         - unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
           maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
           in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
      
         - openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing
           their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first
           place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some
           degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1.
           Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation
           will be similar
      
        [ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc
          since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum  - Linus ]"

      bpf: whitelist all syscalls for error injection · c9a21195
      Howard McLauchlan authored
      Error injection is a useful mechanism to fail arbitrary kernel
      functions. However, it is often hard to guarantee an error propagates
      appropriately to user space programs. By injecting into syscalls, we can
      return arbitrary values to user space directly; this increases
      flexibility and robustness in testing, allowing us to test user space
      error paths effectively.
      
      The following script, for example, fails calls to sys_open() from a
      given pid:
      
      from bcc import BPF
      from sys import argv
      
      pid = argv[1]
      
      prog = r"""
      
      int kprobe__SyS_open(struct pt_regs *ctx, const char *pathname, int flags)
      {
          u32 pid = bpf_get_current_pid_tgid();
          if (pid == %s)
              bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM);
          return 0;
      }
      """ % pid
      
      b = BPF(text=prog)
      while 1:
          b.perf_buffer_poll()
      
      This patch whitelists all syscalls defined with SYSCALL_DEFINE and
      COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE for error injection. These changes are not
      intended to be considered stable, and would normally be configured off.

      syscalls/x86: auto-create compat_sys_*() prototypes · 3e2052e5
      Dominik Brodowski authored
      compat_sys_*() functions are no longer called from within the kernel on
      x86 except from the system call table. Linking the system call does not
      require compat_sys_*() function prototypes at least on x86. Therefore,
      generate compat_sys_*() prototypes on-the-fly within the
      COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro, and remove x86-specific prototypes from
      various header files.
