We currently use PERF_EVENT_TXN flag to determine if we are in the middle of a transaction. If in a transaction, we defer the schedulability checks from pmu->add() operation to the pmu->commit() operation. Now that we have "transaction types" (PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ) we can use the type to determine if we are in a transaction and drop the PERF_EVENT_TXN flag. When PERF_EVENT_TXN is dropped, the cpuhw->group_flag on some architectures becomes unused, so drop that field as well. This is an extension of the Powerpc patch from Peter Zijlstra to s390, Sparc and x86 architectures.

The 24x7 counters in Powerpc allow monitoring a large number of counters simultaneously. They also allow reading several counters in a single HCALL so we can get a more consistent snapshot of the system. Use the PMU's transaction interface to monitor and read several event counters at once. The idea is that users can group several 24x7 events into a single group of events. We use the following logic to submit the group of events to the PMU and read the values: pmu->start_txn() // Initialize before first event for each event in group pmu->read(event); // Queue each event to be read pmu->commit_txn() // Read/update all queuedcounters The ->commit_txn() also updates the event counts in the respective perf_event objects. The perf subsystem can then directly get the event counts from the perf_event and can avoid submitting a new ->read() request to the PMU. Thanks to input from Peter Zijlstra.

When we implement the ability to read several counters at once (using the PERF_PMU_TXN_READ transaction interface), perf_event_read() can fail when the 'group' parameter is true (eg: trying to read too many events at once). For now, have perf_event_read() return an integer. Ignore the return value when the 'group' parameter is false.

In order to enable the use of perf_event_read(.group = true), we need to invert the sibling-child loop nesting of perf_read_group(). Currently we iterate the child list for each sibling, this precludes using group reads. Flip things around so we iterate each group for each child.

perf_event_read() does two things: - call the PMU to read/update the counter value, and - compute the total count of the event and its children Not all callers need both. perf_event_reset() for instance needs the first piece but doesn't need the second. Similarly, when we implement the ability to read a group of events using the transaction interface, we would need the two pieces done independently. Break up perf_event_read() and have it just read/update the counter and have the callers compute the total count if necessary.

Currently, the PMU interface allows reading only one counter at a time. But some PMUs like the 24x7 counters in Power, support reading several counters at once. To leveage this functionality, extend the transaction interface to support a "transaction type". The first type, PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, refers to the existing transactions, i.e. used to _schedule_ all the events on the PMU as a group. A second transaction type, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ, will be used in a follow-on patch, by the 24x7 counters to read several counters at once. Extend the transaction interfaces to the PMU to accept a 'txn_flags' parameter and use this parameter to ignore any transactions that are not of type PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD.

This patch fixes an issue which introduced by commit 1a78d937 ("perf/x86/intel: Streamline LBR MSR handling in PMI"). The old patch not only avoids writing LBR_SELECT MSR in PMI, but also avoids updating lbr_select variable. So in PMI, FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI bit is always mistakenly set for IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR MSR, which causes superfluous increase/decrease of LBR_TOS when collecting LBR callstack.

BTS leaks kernel addresses even in userspace-only mode due to imprecise IP sampling, so sometimes syscall entry points or page fault handler addresses end up in a userspace trace. Now, intel_bts driver exports trace data zero-copy, it does not scan through it to filter out the kernel addresses and it's would be a O(n) job. To work around this situation, this patch forbids the use of intel_bts driver by unprivileged users on systems with the paranoid setting above the (kernel's) default "1", which still allows kernel profiling. In other words, using intel_bts driver implies kernel tracing, regardless of the "exclude_kernel" attribute setting.

BTS leaks kernel addresses even in userspace-only mode due to imprecise IP sampling, so sometimes syscall entry points or page fault handler addresses end up in a userspace trace. Since this driver uses a relatively small buffer for BTS records and it has to iterate through them anyway, it can also take on the additional job of filtering out the records that contain kernel addresses when kernel space tracing is not enabled. This patch changes the bts code to skip the offending records from perf output. In order to request the exact amount of space on the ring buffer, we need to do an extra pass through the records to know how many there are of the valid ones, but considering the small size of the buffer, this extra pass adds very little overhead to the nmi handler. This way we won't end up with awkward IP samples with zero IPs in the perf stream.

When TSC is stable perf/sched clock is based on it. However the conversion from cycles to nanoseconds is not as accurate as it could be. Because CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR is 10, the accuracy is +/- 1/2048 The change is to calculate the maximum shift that results in a multiplier that is still a 32-bit number. For example all frequencies over 1 GHz will have a shift of 32, making the accuracy of the conversion +/- 1/(2^33). That is achieved by using the 'clocks_calc_mult_shift()' function.

rq_data_dir() returns either READ or WRITE (0 == READ, 1 == WRITE), not a boolean value. Now, admittedly the "!= 0" doesn't really change the value (0 stays as zero, 1 stays as one), but it's not only redundant, it confuses gcc, and causes gcc to warn about the construct switch (rq_data_dir(req)) { case READ: ... case WRITE: ... that we have in a few drivers. Now, the gcc warning is silly and stupid (it seems to warn not about the switch value having a different type from the case statements, but about _any_ boolean switch value), but in this case the code itself is silly and stupid too, so let's just change it, and get rid of warnings like this: drivers/block/hd.c: In function ‘hd_request’: drivers/block/hd.c:630:11: warning: switch condition has boolean value [-Wswitch-bool] switch (rq_data_dir(req)) { The odd '!= 0' came in when "cmd_flags" got turned into a "u64" in commit 5953316d ("block: make rq->cmd_flags be 64-bit") and is presumably because the old code (that just did a logical 'and' with 1) would then end up making the type of rq_data_dir() be u64 too. But if we want to retain the old regular integer type, let's just cast the result to 'int' rather than use that rather odd '!= 0'. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Fix up the writeback plugging introduced in commit d353d758 ("writeback: plug writeback at a high level") that then caused problems due to the unplug happening with a spinlock held. * writeback-plugging: writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and writeback_inodes_wb() Revert "writeback: plug writeback at a high level"

Linus Torvalds authored
We had to revert the pluggin in writeback_sb_inodes() because the wb->list_lock is held, but we could easily plug at a higher level before taking that lock, and unplug after releasing it. This does that. Chris will run performance numbers, just to verify that this approach is comparable to the alternative (we could just drop and re-take the lock around the blk_finish_plug() rather than these two commits. I'd have preferred waiting for actual performance numbers before picking one approach over the other, but I don't want to release rc1 with the known "sleeping function called from invalid context" issue, so I'll pick this cleanup version for now. But if the numbers show that we really want to plug just at the writeback_sb_inodes() level, and we should just play ugly games with the spinlock, we'll switch to that.

I didn't notice this when merging the thermal code from Zhang, but his merge (commit 5a924a07: "Merge branches 'thermal-core' and 'thermal-intel' of .git into next") of the thermal-core and thermal-intel branches was wrong. In thermal-core, commit 17e8351a ("thermal: consistently use int for temperatures") converted the thermal layer to use "int" for temperatures. But in parallel, in the thermal-intel branch commit d0a12625 ("thermal: Add Intel PCH thermal driver") added support for the intel PCH thermal sensor using the old interfaces that used "unsigned long" pointers. This resulted in warnings like this: drivers/thermal/intel_pch_thermal.c:184:14: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types] .get_temp = pch_thermal_get_temp, ^ drivers/thermal/intel_pch_thermal.c:184:14: note: (near initialization for ‘tzd_ops.get_temp’) drivers/thermal/intel_pch_thermal.c:186:19: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types] .get_trip_temp = pch_get_trip_temp, ^ drivers/thermal/intel_pch_thermal.c:186:19: note: (near initialization for ‘tzd_ops.get_trip_temp’) This fixes it.
