      nohz: Make tick_nohz_irq_exit() irq safe · e5ab012c
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      As it stands, irq_exit() may or may not be called with
      irqs disabled, depending on __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED
      that the arch can define.
      
      It makes tick_nohz_irq_exit() unsafe. For example two
      interrupts can race in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(): the inner
      most one computes the expiring time on top of the timer list,
      then it's interrupted right before reprogramming the
      clock. The new interrupt enqueues a new timer list timer,
      it reprogram the clock to take it into account and it exits.
      The CPUs resumes the inner most interrupt and performs the clock
      reprogramming without considering the new timer list timer.
      
      This regression has been introduced by:
           280f0677
           ("nohz: Separate out irq exit and idle loop dyntick logic")
      
      Let's fix it right now with the appropriate protections.
      
      A saner long term solution will be to remove
      __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED and mandate that irq_exit() is called
      with interrupts disabled.

           The advantage is that multiple AHCI ports can have multiple MSI

      Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
       "There are lots of improvements, the biggest changes are:
      
        Main kernel side changes:
      
         - Improve uprobes performance by adding 'pre-filtering' support, by
           Oleg Nesterov.
      
         - Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to what was
           done on x86, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu.
      
         - tracing updates by Steve Rostedt - mostly misc fixes and smaller
           improvements.
      
         - Use perf/event tracing to report PCI Express advanced errors, by
           Tony Luck.
      
         - Enable northbridge performance counters on AMD family 15h, by Jacob
           Shin.
      
         - This tracing commit:
      
              tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events
      
           changes the ABI.  All involved parties (PowerTop in particular)
           seem to agree that it's safe to do now with the introduction of
           libtraceevent, but the devil is in the details ...
      
        Main tooling side changes:
      
         - Add 'event group view', from Namyung Kim:
      
           To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording.  And
           then perf report parses the saved group relation from file header
           and prints them together if --group option is provided.  You can
           use the 'perf evlist' command to see event group information:
      
              $ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1
              [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
              [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ]
      
              $ perf evlist --group
              {ref-cycles,cycles}
      
           With this example, default perf report will show you each event
           separately.
      
           You can use --group option to enable event group view:
      
              $ perf report --group
              ...
              # group: {ref-cycles,cycles}
              # ========
              # Samples: 7K of event 'anon group { ref-cycles, cycles }'

           As you can see the Overhead column now contains both of ref-cycles
           and cycles and header line shows group information also - 'anon
           group { ref-cycles, cycles }'.  The output is sorted by period of
           group leader first.
      
         - Initial GTK+ annotate browser, from Namhyung Kim.
      
         - Add option for runtime switching perf data file in perf report,
           just press 's' and a menu with the valid files found in the current
           directory will be presented, from Feng Tang.
      
         - Add support to display whole group data for raw columns, from Jiri
           Olsa.
      
         - Add per processor socket count aggregation in perf stat, from
           Stephane Eranian.

         - 'perf test' improvements

           Olsa.
      
         - Add anonymous huge page recognition, from Joshua Zhu.
      
         - perf build-id cache now can show DSOs present in a perf.data file
           that are not in the cache, to integrate with build-id servers being
           put in place by organizations such as Fedora.
      
         - perf top now shares more of the evsel config/creation routines with
           'record', paving the way for further integration like 'top'
           snapshots, etc.
      
         - perf top now supports DWARF callchains.
      
         - Fix mmap limitations on 32-bit, fix from David Miller.
      
         - 'perf bench numa mem' NUMA performance measurement suite
      
         - ... and lots of fixes, performance improvements, cleanups and other
           improvements I failed to list - see the shortlog and git log for
           details."

      Pull irq core changes from Ingo Molnar:
       "The biggest changes are the IRQ-work and printk changes from Frederic
        Weisbecker, which prepare the code for 'full dynticks' (the ability to
        stop or slow down the periodic tick arbitrarily, not just in idle time
        as today):
      
         - Don't stop tick with irq works pending.  This fix is generally
           useful and concerns archs that can't raise self IPIs.
      
         - Flush irq works before CPU offlining.
      
         - Introduce "lazy" irq works that can wait for the next tick to be
           executed, unless it's stopped.
      
         - Implement klogd wake up using irq work.  This removes the ad-hoc
           printk_tick()/printk_needs_cpu() hooks and make it working even in
           dynticks mode.
      
         - Cleanups and fixes."
