git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar: - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and the tooling side, on CPUs that support it. (modern x86 Intel CPUs with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.) This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from regular, function histogram centric profiles. The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result looks like this in perf report: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy $ perf report -b --sort=symbol 52.34% [.] main [.] f1 24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3 23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2 0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul 0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal 0.01% [k] main [k] __printf This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system calls, traps, interrupts, etc. This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI support in perf report. - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies. It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other improvements. - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc. - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h generic facility: struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE; ... if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as little impact to the likely code path as possible. the static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching. This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key usage and fast/slow cost patterns. - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support. - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows better, etc. - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes', and a corner case bugfix. - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk). - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side. - 'perf bench' improvements - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made these features possible. And, as usual this list is incomplete as there were also lots of other improvements * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (120 commits) perf report: Fix annotate double quit issue in branch view mode perf report: Remove duplicate annotate choice in branch view mode perf/x86: Prettify pmu config literals perf report: Enable TUI in branch view mode perf report: Auto-detect branch stack sampling mode perf record: Add HEADER_BRANCH_STACK tag perf record: Provide default branch stack sampling mode option perf tools: Make perf able to read files from older ABIs perf tools: Fix ABI compatibility bug in print_event_desc() perf tools: Enable reading of perf.data files from different ABI rev perf: Add ABI reference sizes perf report: Add support for taken branch sampling perf record: Add support for sampling taken branch perf tools: Add code to support PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK x86/kprobes: Split out optprobe related code to kprobes-opt.c x86/kprobes: Fix a bug which can modify kernel code permanently x86/kprobes: Fix instruction recovery on optimized path perf: Add callback to flush branch_stack on context switch perf: Disable PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_* when not supported perf/x86: Add LBR software filter support for Intel CPUs ...

2012-03-14perf tools: Incorrect use of snprintf results in SEGVAnton Blanchard
I have a workload where perf top scribbles over the stack and we SEGV. What makes it interesting is that an snprintf is causing this. The workload is a c++ gem that has method names over 3000 characters long, but snprintf is designed to avoid overrunning buffers. So what went wrong? The problem is we assume snprintf returns the number of characters written: ret += repsep_snprintf(bf + ret, size - ret, "[%c] ", self->level); ... ret += repsep_snprintf(bf + ret, size - ret, "%s", self->ms.sym->name); Unfortunately this is not how snprintf works. snprintf returns the number of characters that would have been written if there was enough space. In the above case, if the first snprintf returns a value larger than size, we pass a negative size into the second snprintf and happily scribble over the stack. If you have 3000 character c++ methods thats a lot of stack to trample. This patch fixes repsep_snprintf by clamping the value at size - 1 which is the maximum snprintf can write before adding the NULL terminator. I get the sinking feeling that there are a lot of other uses of snprintf that have this same bug, we should audit them all.

2012-03-13perf record: Fix buffer overrun bug in tracepoint_id_to_path()Stephane Eranian
This patch fixes a buffer overrun bug in tracepoint_id_to_path(). The bug manisfested itself as a memory error reported by perf record. I ran into it with perf sched: $ perf sched rec noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds [ perf record: Woken up 14 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 42.701 MB perf.data (~1865622 samples) ] Fatal: No memory to alloc tracepoints list It turned out that tracepoint_id_to_path() was reading the tracepoint id using read() but the buffer was not large enough to include the \n terminator for id with 4 digits or more. The patch fixes the problem by extending the buffer to a more reasonable size covering all possible id length include \n terminator. Note that atoll() stops at the first non digit character, thus it is not necessary to clear the buffer between each read.

2012-03-09perf tools: Make perf able to read files from older ABIsStephane Eranian
This patches provides a way to handle legacy perf.data files. Legacy files are those using the older PERFFILE signature. For those, it is still necessary to detect endianness but without comparing their header->attr_size with the tool's own version as it may be different. Instead, we use a reference table for all known sizes from the legacy era. We try all the combinations for sizes and endianness. If we find a match, we proceed, otherwise we return: "incompatible file format". This is also done for the pipe-mode file format.

2012-03-09perf tools: Enable reading of perf.data files from different ABI revStephane Eranian
This patch allows perf to process perf.data files generated using an ABI that has a different perf_event_attr struct size, i.e., a different ABI version. The perf_event_attr can be extended, yet perf needs to cope with older perf.data files. Similarly, perf must be able to cope with a perf.data file which is using a newer version of the ABI than what it knows about. This patch adds read_attr(), a routine that reads a perf_event_attr struct from a file incrementally based on its advertised size. If the on-file struct is smaller than what perf knows, then the extra fields are zeroed. If the on-file struct is bigger, then perf only uses what it knows about, the rest is skipped.

2012-03-09perf report: Add support for taken branch samplingRoberto Agostino Vitillo
This patch adds support for taken branch sampling, i.e, the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK feature to perf report. In other words, to display histograms based on taken branches rather than executed instructions addresses. The new option is called -b and it takes no argument. To generate meaningful output, the perf.data must have been obtained using perf record -b xxx ... where xxx is a branch filter option. The output shows symbols, modules, sorted by 'who branches where' the most often. The percentages reported in the first column refer to the total number of branches captured and not the usual number of samples. Here is a quick example. Here branchy is simple test program which looks as follows: void f2(void) {} void f3(void) {} void f1(unsigned long n) { if (n & 1UL) f2(); else f3(); } int main(void) { unsigned long i; for (i=0; i < N; i++) f1(i); return 0; } Here is the output captured on Nehalem, if we are only interested in user level function calls. $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy $ perf report -b --sort=symbol 52.34% [.] main [.] f1 24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3 23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2 0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul 0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal 0.01% [k] main [k] __printf About half (52%) of the call branches captured are from main() -> f1(). The second half (24%+23%) is split in two equal shares between f1() -> f2(), f1() ->f3(). The output is as expected given the code. It should be noted, that using -b in perf record does not eliminate information in the perf.data file. Consequently, a typical profile can also be obtained by perf report by simply not using its -b option. It is possible to sort on branch related columns: - dso_from, symbol_from - dso_to, symbol_to - mispredict Signed-off-by: Roberto Agostino Vitillo <ravitillo@lbl.gov> Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: peterz@infradead.org Cc: acme@redhat.com Cc: robert.richter@amd.com Cc: ming.m.lin@intel.com Cc: andi@firstfloor.org Cc: asharma@fb.com Cc: vweaver1@eecs.utk.edu Cc: khandual@linux.vnet.ibm.com Cc: dsahern@gmail.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1328826068-11713-14-git-send-email-eranian@google.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2012-03-09perf record: Add support for sampling taken branchRoberto Agostino Vitillo
This patch adds a new option to enable taken branch stack sampling, i.e., leverage the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK feature of perf_events. There is a new option to active this mode: -b. It is possible to pass a set of filters to select the type of branches to sample. The following filters are available: - any : any type of branches - any_call : any function call or system call - any_ret : any function return or system call return - any_ind : any indirect branch - u: only when the branch target is at the user level - k: only when the branch target is in the kernel - hv: only when the branch target is in the hypervisor Filters can be combined by passing a comma separated list to the option: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy Signed-off-by: Roberto Agostino Vitillo <ravitillo@lbl.gov> Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: peterz@infradead.org Cc: acme@redhat.com Cc: robert.richter@amd.com Cc: ming.m.lin@intel.com Cc: andi@firstfloor.org Cc: asharma@fb.com Cc: vweaver1@eecs.utk.edu Cc: khandual@linux.vnet.ibm.com Cc: dsahern@gmail.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1328826068-11713-13-git-send-email-eranian@google.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2012-03-05perf evlist: Restore original errno after open failedNamhyung Kim
If perf_evsel__open() failed, the errno was set and returned properly. However since the perf_evlist__open() called close() on fd's for all of evsel x cpu x thread after the failure, the errno was overridden by other code (EBADF). So the caller of the function ended up seeing different error message and getting confused. Fit it by restoring original return value. Because one of caller of the function is in the python extension, and it uses system errno internally, it'd be better restoring the original value rather than using the return value of the function directly, IMHO (i.e. I'm not a python expert :) Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1329966816-23175-1-git-send-email-namhyung.kim@lge.com Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/balbi/usb into usb-next USB: Gadget: changes for 3.4 This merge is rather big. Here's what it contains: For am5536udc we have just simple coding style fixes. Nothing that has any potential to cause any issues going forward. With mv_udc, there's only one single change removing an unneeded NULL check. at91_udc also only saw a single change this merge window, and that's only removing a duplicated header. The Renesas controller has a few more involved changes. Support for SUDMAC was added, there's now a special handling of IRQ resources for when the IRQ line is shared between Renesas controller and SUDMAC, we also had a bug fix where Renesas controller would sleep in atomic context while doing DMA transfers from a tasklet. There were also a set of minor cleanups. The FSL UDC also had a scheduling in atomic context bug fix, but that's all. Thanks to Sebastian, the dummy_hcd now works better than ever with support for scatterlists and streams. Sebastian also added SuperSpeed descriptors to the serial gadgets. The highlight on this merge is the addition of a generic API for mapping and unmapping usb_requests. This will avoid code duplication on all UDC controllers and also kills all the defines for DMA_ADDR_INVALID which UDC controllers sprinkled around. A few of the UDC controllers were already converted to use this new API. Conflicts: drivers/usb/dwc3/gadget.c
