git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
* 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.
* Fix some compiling errors on 32-bit, from Feng Tang.
* Don't use sscanf extension %as, not available on bionic, reimplementation
by Irina Tirdea.
* Fix bfd.h/libbfd detection with recent binutils, from Markus Trippelsdorf.
* Introduce struct and cache information about the environment where a
perf.data file was captured, from Namhyung Kim.
* Fix several error paths in libtraceevent, from Namhyung Kim.
Print event causing perf_event_open() to fail in 'perf record',
from Stephane Eranian.
* New 'kvm' analysis tool, from Xiao Guangrong.

arch_uprobe_disable_step() should also take UTASK_SSTEP_TRAPPED into
account. In this case the probed insn was not executed, we need to
clear X86_EFLAGS_TF if it was set by us and that is all.
Again, this code will look more clean when we move it into
arch_uprobe_post_xol() and arch_uprobe_abort_xol().

arch_uprobe_disable_step() correctly preserves X86_EFLAGS_TF and
returns to user-mode. But this means the application gets SIGTRAP
only after the next insn.
This means that UPROBE_CLEAR_TF logic is not really right. _enable
should only record the state of X86_EFLAGS_TF, and _disable should
check it separately from UPROBE_FIX_SETF.
Remove arch_uprobe_task->restore_flags, add ->saved_tf instead, and
change enable/disable accordingly. This assumes that the probed insn
was not trapped, see the next patch.
arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() logic has the same problem, change it to
check X86_EFLAGS_TF and send SIGTRAP as well. We will cleanup this
all after we fold enable/disable_step into pre/post_hol hooks.
Note: send_sig(SIGTRAP) is not actually right, we need send_sigtrap().
But this needs more changes, handle_swbp() does the same and this is
equally wrong.

single-stepping
user_enable/disable_single_step() was designed for ptrace, it assumes
a single user and does unnecessary and wrong things for uprobes. For
example:
- arch_uprobe_enable_step() can't trust TIF_SINGLESTEP, an
application itself can set X86_EFLAGS_TF which must be
preserved after arch_uprobe_disable_step().
- we do not want to set TIF_SINGLESTEP/TIF_FORCED_TF in
arch_uprobe_enable_step(), this only makes sense for ptrace.
- otoh we leak TIF_SINGLESTEP if arch_uprobe_disable_step()
doesn't do user_disable_single_step(), the application will
be killed after the next syscall.
- arch_uprobe_enable_step() does access_process_vm() we do
not need/want.
Change arch_uprobe_enable/disable_step() to set/clear X86_EFLAGS_TF
directly, this is much simpler and more correct. However, we need to
clear TIF_BLOCKSTEP/DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF before executing the probed insn,
add set_task_blockstep(false).
Note: with or without this patch, there is another (hopefully minor)
problem. A probed "pushf" insn can see the wrong X86_EFLAGS_TF set by
uprobes. Perhaps we should change _disable to update the stack, or
teach arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() to emulate this insn.

Afaics the usage of update_debugctlmsr() and TIF_BLOCKSTEP in
step.c was always very wrong.
1. update_debugctlmsr() was simply unneeded. The child sleeps
TASK_TRACED, __switch_to_xtra(next_p => child) should notice
TIF_BLOCKSTEP and set/clear DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF after resume if
needed.
2. It is wrong. The state of DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF bit in CPU register
should always match the state of current's TIF_BLOCKSTEP bit.
3. Even get_debugctlmsr() + update_debugctlmsr() itself does not
look right. Irq can change other bits in MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR
register or the caller can be preempted in between.
4. It is not safe to play with TIF_BLOCKSTEP if task != current.
DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF and TIF_BLOCKSTEP should always match each
other if the task is running. The tracee is stopped but it
can be SIGKILL'ed right before set/clear_tsk_thread_flag().
However, now that uprobes uses user_enable_single_step(current)
we can't simply remove update_debugctlmsr(). So this patch adds
the additional "task == current" check and disables irqs to avoid
the race with interrupts/preemption.
Unfortunately this patch doesn't solve the last problem, we need
another fix. Probably we should teach ptrace_stop() to set/clear
single/block stepping after resume.
And afaics there is yet another problem: perf can play with
MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR from nmi, this obviously means that even
__switch_to_xtra() has problems.

The arch specific implementation behaves like user_enable_single_step()
except that it does not disable single stepping if it was already
enabled by ptrace. This allows the debugger to single step over an
uprobe. The state of block stepping is not restored. It makes only sense
together with TF and if that was enabled then the debugger is notified.
Note: this is still not correct. For example, TIF_SINGLESTEP check
is not right, the application itself can set X86_EFLAGS_TF. And otoh
we leak TIF_SINGLESTEP (set by enable) if the probed insn is "popf".
See the next patches, we need the changes in arch/x86/kernel/step.c
first.

Fix kprobes/x86 to support jprobes on ftrace-based kprobes.
Because of -mfentry support of ftrace, ftrace is now put
on the beginning of function where jprobes are put.
Originally ftrace-based kprobes doesn't support jprobe
because it will change regs->ip and ftrace doesn't support
changing IP and ftrace itself doesn't conflict jprobe.
However, ftrace -mfentry support moves mcount call on the
top of functions where jprobes are put. This means that
jprobe always conflicts with ftrace-based kprobe and fails.
This patch allows ftrace-based kprobes to support jprobes
by allowing to modify regs->ip and kprobes breakpoint
handler also allows to skip singlestepping because there
is a ftrace call (not an original instruction).

Current kprobe_ftrace_handler expects regs->ip == ip, but it is
incorrect (originally on x86-64). Actually, ftrace handler sets
regs->ip = ip + MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE.
kprobe_ftrace_handler must take care for that.

We would traverse the full P2M top directory (from 0->MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES

Which meant that if the kernel was compiled with MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES=512

patch_instruction() can be called very early on ppc32, when the kernel
isn't yet running at it's linked address. That can cause the !
is_kernel_addr() test in __put_user() to trip and call might_sleep()
which is very bad at that point during boot.
Use a lower level function instead for now, at least until we get to
rework ppc32 boot process to do the code patching later, like ppc64
does.

We have been observing hangs, both of KVM guest vcpu tasks and more
generally, where a process that is woken doesn't properly wake up and
continue to run, but instead sticks in TASK_WAKING state. This
happens because the update of rq->wake_list in ttwu_queue_remote()
is not ordered with the update of ipi_message in
smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass(), and the reading of rq->wake_list in
scheduler_ipi() is not ordered with the reading of ipi_message in
smp_ipi_demux(). Thus it is possible for the IPI receiver not to see
the updated rq->wake_list and therefore conclude that there is nothing
for it to do.
In order to make sure that anything done before smp_send_reschedule()
is ordered before anything done in the resulting call to scheduler_ipi(),
this adds barriers in smp_muxed_message_pass() and smp_ipi_demux().
The barrier in smp_muxed_message_pass() is a full barrier to ensure that
there is a full ordering between the smp_send_reschedule() caller and
scheduler_ipi(). In smp_ipi_demux(), we use xchg() rather than
xchg_local() because xchg() includes release and acquire barriers.
Using xchg() rather than xchg_local() makes sense given that
ipi_message is not just accessed locally.
This moves the barrier between setting the message and calling the
cause_ipi() function into the individual cause_ipi implementations.
Most of them -- those that used outb, out_8 or similar -- already had
a full barrier because out_8 etc. include a sync before the MMIO
store. This adds an explicit barrier in the two remaining cases.
These changes made no measurable difference to the speed of IPIs as
measured using a simple ping-pong latency test across two CPUs on
different cores of a POWER7 machine.
The analysis of the reason why processes were not waking up properly
is due to Milton Miller.

During a context switch we always restore the per thread DSCR value.
If we aren't doing explicit DSCR management
(ie thread.dscr_inherit == 0) and the default DSCR changed while
the process has been sleeping we end up with the wrong value.
Check thread.dscr_inherit and select the default DSCR or per thread
DSCR as required.
This was found with the following test case, when running with
more threads than CPUs (ie forcing context switching):

If the default DSCR is non zero we set thread.dscr_inherit in
copy_thread() meaning the new thread and all its children will ignore
future updates to the default DSCR. This is not intended and is
a change in behaviour that a number of our users have hit.
We just need to inherit thread.dscr and thread.dscr_inherit from
the parent which ends up being much simpler.

When we update the DSCR either via emulation of mtspr(DSCR) or via
a change to dscr_default in sysfs we don't update thread.dscr.
We will eventually update it at context switch time but there is
a period where thread.dscr is incorrect.
If we fork at this point we will copy the old value of thread.dscr
into the child. To avoid this, always keep thread.dscr in sync with
reality.

Writing to dscr_default in sysfs doesn't actually change the DSCR -
we rely on a context switch on each CPU to do the work. There is no
guarantee we will get a context switch in a reasonable amount of time
so fire off an IPI to force an immediate change.

The CPU hotplug code for the powernv platform currently only puts
offline CPUs into nap mode if the powersave_nap variable is set.
However, HV-style KVM on this platform requires secondary CPU threads
to be offline and in nap mode. Since we know nap mode works just
fine on all POWER7 machines, and the only machines that support the
powernv platform are POWER7 machines, this changes the code to
always put offline CPUs into nap mode, regardless of powersave_nap.
Powersave_nap still controls whether or not CPUs go into nap mode
when idle, as before.

At the moment the handler for hypervisor decrementer interrupts is
the same as for decrementer interrupts, i.e. timer_interrupt().
This is bogus; if we ever do get a hypervisor decrementer interrupt
it won't have anything to do with the next timer event. In fact
the only time we get hypervisor decrementer interrupts is when one
is left pending on exit from a KVM guest.
When we get a hypervisor decrementer interrupt we don't need to do
anything special to clear it, since they are edge-triggered on the
transition of HDEC from 0 to -1. Thus this adds an empty handler
function for them. We don't need to have them masked when interrupts
are soft-disabled, so we use STD_EXCEPTION_HV instead of
MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_HV.

Two regression fixes and one boot-loader compatibility fix from Simon Horman.

ARM: shmobile: armadillo800eva: enable rw rootfs mount

armadillo800eva default boot loader is "hermit",
and it's tag->u.core.flags has flag when kernel boots.
Because of this, ${LINUX}/arch/arm/kernel/setup.c :: parse_tag_core()
didn't remove MS_RDONLY flag from root_mountflags.
Thus, the rootfs is mounted as "readonly".
This patch adds "rw" kernel parameter,
and enable read/write mounts for rootfs

renesas_usbhs driver can play role as both Host and Gadget.
In case of Gadget, it requires not only renesas_usbhs
but also usb gadget module (like g_ether).
So, renesas_usbhs driver calls usb_add_gadget_udc() on probe time.
Because of this behavior,
Host port plays also Gadget role if kernel has both Host/Gadget support.
In mackerel case, from 0ada2da51800a4914887a9bcf22d563be80e50be
(ARM: mach-shmobile: mackerel: use renesas_usbhs instead of r8a66597_hcd)
usb0 plays Gadget role, and usb1 plays Host role,
and current mackerel board probes as usb1 -> usb0.
Thus, 1st installed usb gadget module (like g_ether) will be
assigned to usb1 (= usb Host port), and 2nd module to usb0 (= usb Gadget port).
It is very confusable for user.
This patch fixup usb modes probing order as usb0 -> usb1.

Since armadillo800eva has 2 sound cards,
and had reversed deferred probe order issue,
it was purposely registered in reverse order.
But it was solved by
1d29cfa57471a5e4b8a7c2a7433eeba170d3ad92

armadillo800eva board is expecting that
FSI-WM8978 is the 1st, and FSI-HDMI is the 2nd sound card.
