The "format" file of a trace event is originally for parsers to parse ftrace binary output. But the "format" file of a syscall event can only be used by perfcounter, because it describes the format of struct syscall_enter_record not struct syscall_trace_enter. To fix this, we remove struct syscall_enter_record, and then struct syscall_trace_enter will be used by both perf profile and ftrace.

Commit fb34a08c ("tracing: Add trace events for each syscall entry/exit") changed the lowlevel API to ftrace syscall tracing but did not update s390 which started making use of it recently. This broke the s390 build, as reported by Paul Mundt. Update the callbacks with the syscall number and the syscall return code values. This allows per syscall tracepoints, syscall argument enumeration /debug/tracing/events/syscalls/ and perfcounters support and integration on s390 too.

One entry is missing in the output of a stat file.

When syscall tracing was implemented as a tracer, "syscall_arg_type" trace option could be set to enable the display of syscall parameter types. Now this option is gone since it's no longer a tracer, but the code is still there but dead. So we remove dead code and re-enable the printing of paramete types via the verbose option: # echo verbose > trace_options # echo syscalls > set_event # cat trace ... bash-3331 [000] 95.348937: sys_fcntl64 -> 0x1 bash-3331 [000] 95.348942: sys_close(unsigned int fd: a) ...

Define the format of the syscall trace fields to parse the binary values from a raw trace using the syscall events "format" file. This is defined dynamically using the syscalls metadata. It prepares the export of syscall event raw records to perf counters.

Commit d945cb9c ("pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic") dropped the test for 'tty->stopped' in pty_write_room(), which then causes the n_tty line discipline thing to not throttle the data properly when the tty is stopped. So instead of pausing the write due to the tty being stopped, the ldisc layer would go ahead and push it down to the pty. The pty write() routine would then refuse to take the data (because it _did_ check 'stopped'), and the data wouldn't actually be written. This whole stopped test should eventually be moved into the tty ldisc layer rather than have low-level tty drivers care about these things, but right now the fix is to just re-instate the missing pty 'stopped' handling.

Wei Chong Tan reported a fast-PIT-calibration corner-case: | pit_expect_msb() is vulnerable to SMI disturbance corner case | in some platforms which causes /proc/cpuinfo to show wrong | CPU MHz value when quick_pit_calibrate() jumps to success | section. I think that the real issue isn't even an SMI - but the fact that in the very last iteration of the loop, there's no serializing instruction _after_ the last 'rdtsc'. So even in the absense of SMI's, we do have a situation where the cycle counter was read without proper serialization. The last check should be done outside the outer loop, since _inside_ the outer loop, we'll be testing that the PIT has the right MSB value has the right value in the next iteration. So only the _last_ iteration is special, because that's the one that will not check the PIT MSB value any more, and because the final 'get_cycles()' isn't serialized. In other words: - I'd like to move the PIT MSB check to after the last iteration, rather than in every iteration - I think we should comment on the fact that it's also a serializing instruction and so 'fences in' the TSC read. Here's a suggested replacement.
