The ftrace daemon is complex and error prone. This patch strips it out of the code. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Steven Rostedt authored
The ftrace daemon is complex and can cause nasty races if something goes wrong. Since it affects all of the kernel, this patch disables dynamic ftrace from any arch that depends on the daemon. Until the archs are ported over to the new MCOUNT_RECORD method, I am disabling dynamic ftrace from them. Note: I am leaving in the arch/<arch>/kernel/ftrace.c code alone since that can be used when the arch is ported to MCOUNT_RECORD. To port the arch to MCOUNT_RECORD, the scripts/recordmcount.pl needs to be updated. I will make that easier to do for 2.6.29. For 28, we will keep the archs disabled.

When an anomaly is detected, we need a way to completely disable ftrace. Right now we have two functions: ftrace_kill and ftrace_kill_atomic. The ftrace_kill tries to do it in a "nice" way by converting everything back to a nop. The "nice" way is dangerous itself, so this patch removes it and only has the "atomic" version, which is all that is needed.

The text section stays in memory without ever leaving. With the exception of modules, but modules know how to handle that case. With the dynamic ftrace tracer, we need to make sure that it does not try to modify code that no longer exists. The only safe section is .text. This patch changes the recordmcount script to only record the mcount calls in the .text sections. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Steven Rostedt authored
The recordmcount script requires that the actual arch is passed in. This works well when ARCH=i386 or ARCH=x86_64 but does not handle the case of ARCH=x86. This patch adds a parameter to the function to pass in the number of bits of the architecture. So that it can determine if x86 should be run for x86_64 or i386 archs.

The pages of a buffer was originally pointing to the page struct, it now points to the page address. The freeing of the page still uses the page frame free "__free_page" instead of the correct free_page to the address.

When bootgraph.pl parses a file, it gives one row for each initcall's pid. But they are displayed in random (perl hash) order. Let's sort the pids by the start time of their first initcall instead. This helps trace module initcalls, where each has a separate pid. bootgraph.pl will show module initcalls during the initramfs; it may also be adapted to show subsequent module initcalls.

Commit f06febc9 ("timers: fix itimer/ many thread hang") introduced a new task_cputime interface and subsequently only converted binfmt_elf over to it. This results in the build for binfmt_elf_fdpic blowing up given that p->signal->{u,s}time have disappeared from underneath us. Apply the same trivial fix from binfmt_elf to binfmt_elf_fdpic.

We're trying to keep the !CONFIG_SHMEM tiny-shmem.c (using ramfs without swap) in synch with CONFIG_SHMEM shmem.c (and mpm is preparing patches to combine them). I was glad to see EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(shmem_file_setup) go into shmem.c, but why not support DRM-GEM when !CONFIG_SHMEM too? But caution says still depend on MMU, since !CONFIG_MMU is.. different.

This gets rid of an annoying warning in ehci-hcd.c when DEBUG isn't enabled: warning: label 'err_debug' defined but not used by moving it inside the already-existing #ifdef DEBUG, so that it matches the goto.

Yes, this will probably be switched over to a cleaner model anyway, but in the meantime I don't want to see the 'unused variable' warnings that come from the disgusting #ifdef code. Make the special case be a nice inlien function of its own, clean up the code, and make the warning go away. I wish people didn't write code that gets (valid) warnings from the compiler, but I'll limit my fixes to code that I actually care about (in this case just because I see the warning and it annoys me).

Merge branch 'genirq-v28-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip This merges branches irq/genirq, irq/sparseirq-v4, timers/hpet-percpu and x86/uv. The sparseirq branch is just preliminary groundwork: no sparse IRQs are actually implemented by this tree anymore - just the new APIs are added while keeping the old way intact as well (the new APIs map 1:1 to irq_desc[]).
