And while we're "borrowing" counters from these subsets we should not be preempted (well, strictly speaking in p4_hw_config we just pre-set reference to the subset which allow to save some cycles in schedule routine if it happens on the same cpu). So use get_cpu/put_cpu pair. Also p4_pmu_schedule_events should use smp_processor_id rather than raw_ version. This allow us to catch up preemption issue (if there will ever be).

Commit 6bde9b6c ("perf: Add group scheduling transactional APIs") added code to allow a group to be scheduled in a single transaction. However, it introduced a bug in handling events whose pmu does not implement transactions -- at the end of scheduling in the events in the group, in the non-transactional case the code now falls through to the group_error label, and proceeds to unschedule all the events in the group and return failure. This fixes it by returning 0 (success) in the non-transactional case.

Rename perf_event_attr::precise to perf_event_attr::precise_ip and widen it to 2 bits. This new field describes the required precision of the PERF_SAMPLE_IP field: 0 - SAMPLE_IP can have arbitrary skid 1 - SAMPLE_IP must have constant skid 2 - SAMPLE_IP requested to have 0 skid 3 - SAMPLE_IP must have 0 skid And modify the Intel PEBS code accordingly. The PEBS implementation now supports up to precise_ip == 2, where we perform the IP fixup. Also s/PERF_RECORD_MISC_EXACT/&_IP/ to clarify its meaning, this bit should be set for each PERF_SAMPLE_IP field known to match the actual instruction triggering the event. This new scheme allows for a PEBS mode that uses the buffer for more than a single event.

There may exist constraints with a cmask set to zero. In this case for_each_event_constraint() will not work properly. Now weight is used instead of the cmask for loop exit detection. Weight is always a value other than zero since the default contains the HWEIGHT from the counter mask and in other cases a value of zero does not fit too. This is in preparation of ibs event constraints that wont have a cmask.

Stephane reported a lockdep warning while using PERF_FORMAT_GROUP. The issue is that perf_event_read_group() takes faults while holding the ctx->mutex, while perf_event_release_kernel() can be called from munmap(). Which makes for an AB-BA deadlock. Except we can never establish the deadlock because we'll only ever call perf_event_release_kernel() after all file descriptors are dead so there is no concurrency possible.

Both Stephane and Corey reported that PERF_FORMAT_GROUP didn't work as expected if the task the counters were attached to quit before the read() call. The cause is that we unconditionally destroy the grouping when we remove counters from their context. Fix this by only doing this when we free the counter itself.

Commits 9363c382 (libata: rename SFF functions) and 5682ed33 (libata: rename SFF port ops) renamed the taskfile access methods but didn't update the developer's guide. Commit c9f75b04 (libata: kill ata_noop_dev_select()) didn't update the developer's guide as well. The guide also refers to the long gone ata_pio_data_xfer_noirq(), ata_pio_data_xfer(), and ata_mmio_data_xfer() -- replace those by the modern ata_sff_data_xfer_noirq(), ata_sff_data_xfer(), and ata_sff_data_xfer32().

Fix a couple of inefficiencies and redundancies related to have_tracepoints() and its use when checking whether to write TRACE_INFO. First, there's no need to use get_tracepoints_path() in have_tracepoints() - we really just want the part that checks whether any attributes correspondo to tracepoints. Second, we really don't care about raw_samples per se - tracepoints are always raw_samples. In any case, the have_tracepoints() check should be sufficient to decide whether or not to write TRACE_INFO.
