Pull kbuild changes from Michal Marek:
- Alias generation in modpost is cross-compile safe.
- kernel/timeconst.h is now generated using a bc script instead of
perl.
- scripts/link-vmlinux.sh now works with an alternative
$KCONFIG_CONFIG.
- destination-y for exported headers is supported in Kbuild files
again.
- depmod is called with -P $CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX on architectures that
need it.
- CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED disables var-tracking
- scripts/setlocalversion works with too much translated locales ;)

Newer gcc enables the var-tracking pass with -g to keep track which
registers contain which variables. This is one of the slower passes in gcc.
With reduced debug info (aimed at objdump -S, but not using a full debugger)
we don't need this fine grained tracking. But it was still enabled
because -g was enabled. Disable it explicitely for DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED.
On my 8T workstation this gives me about a 12 second gain in building
a reasonable kernel config (2min16 vs 2min28) with DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED.
With full DEBUG_INFO it takes 2min46
The actual improvement in user time taken by the compiler is much higher
(all CPU combined user time 15min5s vs 16m30 before)
but the usual amdahl bottleneck on the linker prevents more speedup.
It still saves some more energy and keeps cycles for other things.

On architectures which have symbol prefixes, depmod emits lots of
warnings like this:
WARNING: $module.ko needs unknown symbol $symbol
This is because depmod isn't being passed the -P <symbol_prefix>
arguments to specify the symbol prefix to ignore. This option is
included since the 3.13 release of module-init-tools.
Update scripts/depmod.sh to take extra arguments for the symbol prefix
(required but may be empty), and update the main Makefile to always pass
"$(CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX)" to scripts/depmod.sh.
If the provided symbol prefix is non-empty, scripts/depmod.sh checks if
depmod --version reports module-init-tools with a version number < 3.13
otherwise it appends -P $SYMBOL_PREFIX to the depmod command line.

Pull two x86 kernel build changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The first change modifies how 'make oldconfig' works on cross-bitness
situations on x86. It was felt the new behavior of preserving the
bitness of the .config is more logical. This is a leftover of the
merge.
The second change eliminates a Perl warning. (There's another, more
complete fix resulting of this warning fix, which second fix in flight
to you via the kbuild tree, which will remove the timeconst.pl script
altogether.)"

To allow the builder to sign only a subset of modules, or to sign the
modules using a key that is not available on the build machine, add
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL. If this option is unset, no modules will be
signed during build. The default is 'y', to preserve the current
behavior.

By popular demand, arch/aarch64 is now known as arch/arm64. However,
uname -m (and indeed the GNU triplet) still use aarch64 as the machine
string.
This patch fixes native builds of both the kernel and perf tools by
updating the relevant Makefiles to munge the output of uname -m and
set the ARCH variable appropriately.

It is easy to waste a bunch of time when one takes a 32-bit .config
from a test machine and try to build it on a faster 64-bit system, and
its existing setting of CONFIG_64BIT=n gets *changed* to match the
build host. Similarly, if one has an existing build tree it is easy
to trash an entire build tree that way.
This is because the default setting for $ARCH when discovered from
'uname' is one of the legacy pre-x86-merge values (i386 or x86_64),
which effectively force the setting of CONFIG_64BIT to match. We should
default to ARCH=x86 instead, finally completing the merge that we
started so long ago.
This patch preserves the behaviour of the legacy ARCH settings for commands
such as:
make ARCH=x86_64 randconfig
make ARCH=i386 randconfig
... since making the value of CONFIG_64BIT actually random in that situation
is not desirable.
In time, perhaps we can retire this legacy use of the old ARCH= values.
We already have a way to override values for *any* config option, using
$KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG, so it could be argued that we don't necessarily need
to keep ARCH={i386,x86_64} around as a special case just for overriding
CONFIG_64BIT.
We'd probably at least want to add a way to override config options from
the command line ('make CONFIG_FOO=y oldconfig') before we talk about doing
that though.

patch will cause the modules to get a signature appended. The make target
is intended to be run after 'make modules_install', and will modify the
modules in-place in the installed location. It can be used to produce
signed modules after they have been processed by distribution build

link of vmlinux moved to a script" make clean with M=<dir>

System.map and couple of other files from the *main* kernel

Honour the O= flag that was passed to a higher level Makefile and then passed
down as part of a tool build.
To make this work, the top-level Makefile passes the original O= flag and
subdir=tools to the tools/Makefile, and that in turn passes
subdir=$(O)/$(subdir)/foodir when building tool foo in directory
$(O)/$(subdir)/foodir (where the intervening slashes aren't added if an
element is missing).
For example, take perf. This is found in tools/perf/. Assume we're building
into directory ~/zebra/, so we pass O=~/zebra to make. Dependening on where
we run the build from, we see:
make run in dir $(OUTPUT) dir
======================= ==================
linux ~/zebra/tools/perf/
linux/tools ~/zebra/perf/
linux/tools/perf ~/zebra/
and if O= is not set, we get:
make run in dir $(OUTPUT) dir
======================= ==================
linux linux/tools/perf/
linux/tools linux/tools/perf/
linux/tools/perf linux/tools/perf/
The output directories are created by the descend function if they don't
already exist.

Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking system.
As the headers are split the entries will be transferred across from the old
Kbuild files to the UAPI Kbuild files.
The changes made in this commit are:
(1) Exported generated files (of which there are currently four) are moved to
uapi/ directories under the appropriate generated/ directory, thus we
get:
include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h
arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_64.h
arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_x32.h
These paths were added to the build as -I flags in a previous patch.
(2) scripts/Makefile.headersinst is now given the UAPI path to install from
rather than the old path.
It then determines the old path from that and includes that Kbuild also
if it exists, thus permitting the headers to exist in either directory
during the changeover.
I also renamed the "install" variable to "installdir" as it refers to a
directory not the install program.
(3) scripts/headers_install.pl is altered to take a list of source file paths
instead of just their names so that the makefile can tell it exactly
where to find each file.
For the moment, files can be obtained from one of four places for each
output directory:
.../include/uapi/foo/
.../include/generated/uapi/foo/
.../include/foo/
.../include/generated/foo/
The non-UAPI paths will be dropped later.

Partition the header include path flags into two sets, one for kernelspace
builds and one for userspace builds.
Add the following directories to build after the ordinary include directories
so that #include will pick up the UAPI header directly if the kernel header
has been moved there.
The userspace set (represented by the USERINCLUDE make variable) contains:
-I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi
-I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated/uapi
-I $(srctree)/include/uapi
-I include/generated/uapi
-include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h
and the kernelspace set (represented by the LINUXINCLUDE make variable)
contains:
-I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include
-I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated
-I $(srctree)/include
-I include --- if not building in the source tree
plus everything in the USERINCLUDE set.
Then use USERINCLUDE in building the x86 boot code.

Pull perf update from Ingo Molnar:
"Lots of changes in this cycle as well, with hundreds of commits from
over 30 contributors. Most of the activity was on the tooling side.
Higher level changes:
- New 'perf kvm' analysis tool, from Xiao Guangrong.
- New 'perf trace' system-wide tracing tool
- uprobes fixes + cleanups from Oleg Nesterov.
- Lots of patches to make perf build on Android out of box, from
Irina Tirdea
- Extend ftrace function tracing utility to be more dynamic for its
users. It allows for data passing to the callback functions, as
well as reading regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger at function
entry.
The main goal of this patch series was to allow kprobes to use
ftrace as an optimized probe point when a probe is placed on an
ftrace nop. With lots of help from Masami Hiramatsu, and going
through lots of iterations, we finally came up with a good
solution.
- Add cpumask for uncore pmu, use it in 'stat', from Yan, Zheng.
- Various tracing updates from Steve Rostedt
- Clean up and improve 'perf sched' performance by elliminating lots
of needless calls to libtraceevent.
- Event group parsing support, from Jiri Olsa
- UI/gtk refactorings and improvements from Namhyung Kim
- Add support for non-tracepoint events in perf script python, from
Feng Tang
- Add --symbols to 'script', similar to the one in 'report', from
Feng Tang.
Infrastructure enhancements and fixes:
- Convert the trace builtins to use the growing evsel/evlist
tracepoint infrastructure, removing several open coded constructs
like switch like series of strcmp to dispatch events, etc.
Basically what had already been showcased in 'perf sched'.
- Add evsel constructor for tracepoints, that uses libtraceevent just
to parse the /format events file, use it in a new 'perf test' to
make sure the libtraceevent format parsing regressions can be more
readily caught.
- Some strange errors were happening in some builds, but not on the
next, reported by several people, problem was some parser related
files, generated during the build, didn't had proper make deps, fix
from Eric Sandeen.
- Introduce struct and cache information about the environment where
a perf.data file was captured, from Namhyung Kim.
- Fix handling of unresolved samples when --symbols is used in
'report', from Feng Tang.
- Add union member access support to 'probe', from Hyeoncheol Lee.
- Fixups to die() removal, from Namhyung Kim.
- Render fixes for the TUI, from Namhyung Kim.
- Don't enable annotation in non symbolic view, from Namhyung Kim.
- Fix pipe mode in 'report', from Namhyung Kim.
- Move related stats code from stat to util/, will be used by the
'stat' kvm tool, from Xiao Guangrong.
- Remove die()/exit() calls from several tools.
- Resolve vdso callchains, from Jiri Olsa
- Don't pass const char pointers to basename, so that we can
unconditionally use libgen.h and thus avoid ifdef BIONIC lines,
from David Ahern
- Refactor hist formatting so that it can be reused with the GTK
browser, From Namhyung Kim
- Fix build for another rbtree.c change, from Adrian Hunter.
- Make 'perf diff' command work with evsel hists, from Jiri Olsa.
- Use the only field_sep var that is set up: symbol_conf.field_sep,
fix from Jiri Olsa.
- .gitignore compiled python binaries, from Namhyung Kim.
- Get rid of die() in more libtraceevent places, from Namhyung Kim.
- Rename libtraceevent 'private' struct member to 'priv' so that it
works in C++, from Steven Rostedt
- Remove lots of exit()/die() calls from tools so that the main perf
exit routine can take place, from David Ahern
- Fix x86 build on x86-64, from David Ahern.
- {int,str,rb}list fixes from Suzuki K Poulose
- perf.data header fixes from Namhyung Kim
- Allow user to indicate objdump path, needed in cross environments,
from Maciek Borzecki
- Fix hardware cache event name generation, fix from Jiri Olsa
- Add round trip test for sw, hw and cache event names, catching the
problem Jiri fixed, after Jiri's patch, the test passes
successfully.
- Clean target should do clean for lib/traceevent too, fix from David
Ahern
- Check the right variable for allocation failure, fix from Namhyung
Kim
- Set up evsel->tp_format regardless of evsel->name being set
already, fix from Namhyung Kim
- Oprofile fixes from Robert Richter.
- Remove perf_event_attr needless version inflation, from Jiri Olsa
- Introduce libtraceevent strerror like error reporting facility,
from Namhyung Kim
- Add pmu mappings to perf.data header and use event names from cmd
line, from Robert Richter
- Fix include order for bison/flex-generated C files, from Ben
Hutchings
- Build fixes and documentation corrections from David Ahern
- Assorted cleanups from Robert Richter
- Let O= makes handle relative paths, from Steven Rostedt
- perf script python fixes, from Feng Tang.
- Initial bash completion support, from Frederic Weisbecker
- Allow building without libelf, from Namhyung Kim.
- Support DWARF CFI based unwind to have callchains when %bp based
unwinding is not possible, from Jiri Olsa.
- Symbol resolution fixes, while fixing support PPC64 files with an
.opt ELF section was the end goal, several fixes for code that
handles all architectures and cleanups are included, from Cody
Schafer.
- Assorted fixes for Documentation and build in 32 bit, from Robert
Richter
- Cache the libtraceevent event_format associated to each evsel
early, so that we avoid relookups, i.e. calling pevent_find_event
repeatedly when processing tracepoint events.
[ This is to reduce the surface contact with libtraceevents and
make clear what is that the perf tools needs from that lib: so
far parsing the common and per event fields. ]
- Don't stop the build if the audit libraries are not installed, fix
from Namhyung Kim.
- Fix bfd.h/libbfd detection with recent binutils, from Markus
Trippelsdorf.
- Improve warning message when libunwind devel packages not present,
from Jiri Olsa"
