mv kernel/perf_event.c -> kernel/events/core.c. From there, all further sensible splitting can happen. The idea is that due to perf_event.c becoming pretty sizable and with the advent of the marriage with ftrace, splitting functionality into its logical parts should help speeding up the unification and to manage the complexity of the subsystem.

The code used for matching functions is almost identical between normal selecting of functions and using the :mod: feature of set_ftrace_notrace. Consolidate the two users into one function. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

There are three locations that perform almost identical functions in order to update the ftrace_trace_function (the ftrace function variable that gets called by mcount). Consolidate these into a single function called update_ftrace_function(). Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The updating of a function record is moved to a single function. This will allow us to add specific changes in one location for both modules and kernel functions. Later patches will determine if the function record itself needs to be updated (which enables the mcount caller), or just the ftrace_ops needs the update.

Since we disable all function tracer processing if we detect that a modification of a instruction had failed, we do not need to track that the record has failed. No more ftrace processing is allowed, and the FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag is pointless. The FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag was used to denote records that were successfully converted from mcount calls into nops. But if a single record fails, all of ftrace is disabled.

The failures file in the debugfs tracing directory would list the functions that failed to convert when the old dead ftrace daemon tried to update code but failed.

The disabling of interrupts around ftrace_update_code() was used to protect against the evil ftrace daemon from years past. But that daemon has long been killed. It is safe to keep interrupts enabled while updating the initial mcount into nops. The ftrace_mutex is also held which keeps other users at bay. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

It was noticed that P4 machines were generating double NMIs for each perf event. These extra NMIs lead to 'Dazed and confused' messages on the screen. I tracked this down to a P4 quirk that said the overflow bit had to be cleared before re-enabling the apic LVT mask. My first attempt was to move the un-masking inside the perf nmi handler from before the chipset NMI handler to after. This broke Nehalem boxes that seem to like the unmasking before the counters themselves are re-enabled. In order to keep this change simple for 2.6.39, I decided to just simply move the apic LVT un-masking to the beginning of all the chipset NMI handlers, with the exception of Pentium4's to fix the double NMI issue. Later on we can move the un-masking to later in the handlers to save a number of 'extra' NMIs on those particular chipsets. I tested this change on a P4 machine, an AMD machine, a Nehalem box, and a core2quad box. 'perf top' worked correctly along with various other small 'perf record' runs. Anything high stress breaks all the machines but that is a different problem. Thanks to various people for testing different versions of this patch.

On Nehalem CPUs the retired branch-misses event can be completely bogus, when there are no branch-misses occuring. When there are a lot of branch misses then the count is pretty accurate. Still, this leaves us with an event that over-counts a lot. Detect this erratum and work it around by using BR_MISP_EXEC.ANY events. These will also count speculated branches but still it's a lot more precise in practice than the architectural event.

Now that the security modules can decide whether they support the dcache RCU walk or not it's possible to make selinux a bit more RCU friendly. The SELinux AVC and security server access decision code is RCU safe. A specific piece of the LSM audit code may not be RCU safe. This patch makes the VFS RCU walk retry if it would hit the non RCU safe chunk of code. It will normally just work under RCU. This is done simply by passing the VFS RCU state as a flag down into the avc_audit() code and returning ECHILD there if it would have an issue.

Now that the whole dcache_hash_bucket crap is gone, go all the way and also remove the weird locking layering violations for locking the hash buckets. Add hlist_bl_lock/unlock helpers to move the locking into the list abstraction instead of requiring each caller to open code it. After all allowing for the bit locks is the whole point of these helpers over the plain hlist variant.

When we are waiting for the bit-lock to be released, and are looping over the 'cpu_relax()' should not be doing anything else - otherwise we miss the point of trying to do the whole 'cpu_relax()'. Do the preemption enable/disable around the loop, rather than inside of it. Noticed when I was looking at the code generation for the dcache __d_drop usage, and the code just looked very odd.

After 57db4e8d changed eCryptfs to write-back caching, eCryptfs page writeback updates the lower inode times due to the use of vfs_write() on the lower file. To preserve inode metadata changes, such as 'cp -p' does with utimensat(), we need to flush all dirty pages early in ecryptfs_setattr() so that the user-updated lower inode metadata isn't clobbered later in writeback. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33372Reported-by: Rocko <rockorequin@hotmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

When failing to read the lower file's crypto metadata during a lookup, eCryptfs must continue on without throwing an error. For example, there may be a plaintext file in the lower mount point that the user wants to delete through the eCryptfs mount. If an error is encountered while reading the metadata in lookup(), the eCryptfs inode's size could be incorrect. We must be sure to reread the plaintext inode size from the metadata when performing an open() or setattr(). The metadata is already being read in those paths, so this adds minimal performance overhead. This patch introduces a flag which will track whether or not the plaintext inode size has been read so that an incorrect i_size can be fixed in the open() or setattr() paths. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509180 Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

For any given lower inode, eCryptfs keeps only one lower file open and multiplexes all eCryptfs file operations through that lower file. The lower file was considered "persistent" and stayed open from the first lookup through the lifetime of the inode. This patch keeps the notion of a single, per-inode lower file, but adds reference counting around the lower file so that it is closed when not currently in use. If the reference count is at 0 when an operation (such as open, create, etc.) needs to use the lower file, a new lower file is opened. Since the file is no longer persistent, all references to the term persistent file are changed to lower file. Locking is added around the sections of code that opens the lower file and assign the pointer in the inode info, as well as the code the fputs the lower file when all eCryptfs users are done with it. This patch is needed to fix issues, when mounted on top of the NFSv3 client, where the lower file is left silly renamed until the eCryptfs inode is destroyed.
