      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.

      kprobes: Use text_poke_smp_batch for optimizing · cd7ebe22
      Masami Hiramatsu authored 
      Use text_poke_smp_batch() in optimization path for reducing
the number of stop_machine() issues. If the number of optimizing
probes is more than MAX_OPTIMIZE_PROBES(=256), kprobes optimizes
first MAX_OPTIMIZE_PROBES probes and kicks optimizer for
remaining probes.

Changes in v5:
- Use kick_kprobe_optimizer() instead of directly calling
  schedule_delayed_work().
- 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.

      x86: Introduce text_poke_smp_batch() for batch-code modifying · 7deb18dc
      Masami Hiramatsu authored 
      Introduce text_poke_smp_batch(). This function modifies several
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.

      Merge disabling kprobe to unregistering kprobe function

Current unregistering code disables(disarms) kprobes after
checking target kprobe status. This patch changes it to
disabling kprobe first after that it changing the kprobe's
state. This allows to share probe disabling code between
disable_kprobe() and unregister_kprobe().

      Rename irrelevant uses of "old_p" to more appropriate names.
Originally, "old_p" just meant "the old kprobe on given address"
but current code uses that name as "just another kprobe" or
something like that. This patch renames those pointer names
to more appropriate one for maintainability.

The issue was that a const char * was cast into a char * to call

char *, but it is okay to cast the return value of ends_with() to char *
(because we understand what ends_with() does).

      perf session: Sort all events if ordered_samples=true · cbf41645
      Thomas Gleixner authored 
      Now that we have timestamps on FORK, EXIT, COMM, MMAP events we can
sort everything in time order. This fixes the following observed
problem:

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.
