fdfbbd07e9 perf: Add generic transaction flags
Add a generic qualifier for transaction events, as a new sample
type that returns a flag word. This is particularly useful
for qualifying aborts: to distinguish aborts which happen
due to asynchronous events (like conflicts caused by another
CPU) versus instructions that lead to an abort.

The tuning strategies are very different for those cases,
so it's important to distinguish them easily and early.

Since it's inconvenient and inflexible to filter for this
in the kernel we report all the events out and allow
some post processing in user space.

The flags are based on the Intel TSX events, but should be fairly
generic and mostly applicable to other HTM architectures too. In addition
to various flag words there's also reserved space to report an
program supplied abort code. For TSX this is used to distinguish specific
classes of aborts, like a lock busy abort when doing lock elision.

Flags:

Elision and generic transactions 		   (ELISION vs TRANSACTION)
(HLE vs RTM on TSX; IBM etc.  would likely only use TRANSACTION)
Aborts caused by current thread vs aborts caused by others (SYNC vs ASYNC)
Retryable transaction				   (RETRY)
Conflicts with other threads			   (CONFLICT)
Transaction write capacity overflow		   (CAPACITY WRITE)
Transaction read capacity overflow		   (CAPACITY READ)

Transactions implicitely aborted can also return an abort code.
This can be used to signal specific events to the profiler. A common
case is abort on lock busy in a RTM eliding library (code 0xff)
To handle this case we include the TSX abort code

Common example aborts in TSX would be:

- Data conflict with another thread on memory read.
                                      Flags: TRANSACTION|ASYNC|CONFLICT
- executing a WRMSR in a transaction. Flags: TRANSACTION|SYNC
- HLE transaction in user space is too large
                                      Flags: ELISION|SYNC|CAPACITY-WRITE

The only flag that is somewhat TSX specific is ELISION.

This adds the perf core glue needed for reporting the new flag word out.

v2: Add MEM/MISC
v3: Move transaction to the end
v4: Separate capacity-read/write and remove misc
v5: Remove _SAMPLE. Move abort flags to 32bit. Rename
    transaction to txn

723478c8a4 perf: Enforce 1 as lower limit for perf_event_max_sample_rate
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate will accept
negative values as well as 0.

Negative values are unreasonable, and 0 causes a
divide by zero exception in perf_proc_update_handler.

This patch enforces a lower limit of 1.

9886167d20 perf: Fix perf_pmu_migrate_context
While auditing the list_entry usage due to a trinity bug I found that
perf_pmu_migrate_context violates the rules for
perf_event::event_entry.

The problem is that perf_event::event_entry is a RCU list element, and
hence we must wait for a full RCU grace period before re-using the
element after deletion.

Therefore the usage in perf_pmu_migrate_context() which re-uses the
entry immediately is broken. For now introduce another list_head into
perf_event for this specific usage.

This doesn't actually fix the trinity report because that never goes
through this code.

0c06a5d4b1 arm: Fix build error with context tracking calls
ad65782fba (context_tracking: Optimize main APIs off case

function and left ARM asm callers behind.

This can be easily fixed by making ARM calling the post static

static key checks there. We'll remove these later when ARM will
support the context tracking static keys.

9809b18fcf watchdog: update watchdog_thresh properly
watchdog_tresh controls how often nmi perf event counter checks per-cpu
hrtimer_interrupts counter and blows up if the counter hasn't changed
since the last check.  The counter is updated by per-cpu
watchdog_hrtimer hrtimer which is scheduled with 2/5 watchdog_thresh
period which guarantees that hrtimer is scheduled 2 times per the main
period.  Both hrtimer and perf event are started together when the
watchdog is enabled.

So far so good.  But...

But what happens when watchdog_thresh is updated from sysctl handler?

proc_dowatchdog will set a new sampling period and hrtimer callback
(watchdog_timer_fn) will use the new value in the next round.  The
problem, however, is that nobody tells the perf event that the sampling
period has changed so it is ticking with the period configured when it
has been set up.

This might result in an ear ripping dissonance between perf and hrtimer
parts if the watchdog_thresh is increased.  And even worse it might lead
to KABOOM if the watchdog is configured to panic on such a spurious
lockup.

This patch fixes the issue by updating both nmi perf even counter and
hrtimers if the threshold value has changed.

The nmi one is disabled and then reinitialized from scratch.  This has
an unpleasant side effect that the allocation of the new event might
fail theoretically so the hard lockup detector would be disabled for
such cpus.  On the other hand such a memory allocation failure is very
unlikely because the original event is deallocated right before.

It would be much nicer if we just changed perf event period but there
doesn't seem to be any API to do that right now.  It is also unfortunate
that perf_event_alloc uses GFP_KERNEL allocation unconditionally so we
cannot use on_each_cpu() and do the same thing from the per-cpu context.
The update from the current CPU should be safe because
perf_event_disable removes the event atomically before it clears the
per-cpu watchdog_ev so it cannot change anything under running handler
feet.

The hrtimer is simply restarted (thanks to Don Zickus who has pointed
this out) if it is queued because we cannot rely it will fire&adopt to
the new sampling period before a new nmi event triggers (when the
treshold is decreased).

359e6fab66 watchdog: update watchdog attributes atomically
proc_dowatchdog doesn't synchronize multiple callers which might lead to
confusion when two parallel callers might confuse watchdog_enable_all_cpus
resp watchdog_disable_all_cpus (eg watchdog gets enabled even if
watchdog_thresh was set to 0 already).

This patch adds a local mutex which synchronizes callers to the sysctl
handler.

3029ede393 sched/balancing: Fix 'local->avg_load > busiest->avg_load' case in fix_small_imbalance()
In busiest->group_imb case we can come to fix_small_imbalance() with
local->avg_load > busiest->avg_load. This can result in wrong imbalance
fix-up, because there is the following check there where all the
members are unsigned:

if (busiest->avg_load - local->avg_load + scaled_busy_load_per_task >=
    (scaled_busy_load_per_task * imbn)) {
	env->imbalance = busiest->load_per_task;
	return;
}

As a result we can end up constantly bouncing tasks from one cpu to
another if there are pinned tasks.

Fix it by substituting the subtraction with an equivalent addition in
the check.

  belonging to different cores on an HT-enabled machine with N logical

fa73158710 perf: Fix capabilities bitfield compatibility in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'
Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page::
cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially
fixed by:

  860f085b74 ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'")

The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released
officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is
not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the
field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used
on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel.

To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained,
by iterating the ABI the following way:

 - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not
   confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable
   to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit.

 - Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new
   libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero
   without having to check the kernel version.

 - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality:

	cap_user_rdpmc		: 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */
	cap_user_time		: 1, /* The time_* fields are used */
	cap_user_time_zero	: 1, /* The time_zero field is used */

 - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the
   old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it
   accidentally with old assumptions.

The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it
will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well.

Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by
Adrian Hunter.

3af3351676 memcg: avoid overflow caused by PAGE_ALIGN
Since PAGE_ALIGN is aligning up(the next page boundary), so after
PAGE_ALIGN, the value might be overflow, such as write the MAX value to
*.limit_in_bytes.

  $ cat /cgroup/memory/memory.limit_in_bytes
  18446744073709551615

  # echo 18446744073709551615 > /cgroup/memory/memory.limit_in_bytes
  bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

Some user programs might depend on such behaviours(like libcg, we read
the value in snapshot, then use the value to reset cgroup later), and
that will cause confusion.  So we need to fix it.

02b9735c12 ACPI and power management fixes for 3.12-rc1
1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) fixes related to spurious events
 
   After the recent ACPIPHP changes we've seen some interesting breakage
   on a system that triggers device check notifications during boot for
   non-existing devices.  Although those notifications are really
   spurious, we should be able to deal with them nevertheless and that
   shouldn't introduce too much overhead.  Four commits to make that
   work properly.
 
  2) Memory hotplug and hibernation mutual exclusion rework
 
   This was maent to be a cleanup, but it happens to fix a classical
   ABBA deadlock between system suspend/hibernation and ACPI memory
   hotplug which is possible if they are started roughly at the same
   time.  Three commits rework memory hotplug so that it doesn't
   acquire pm_mutex and make hibernation use device_hotplug_lock
   which prevents it from racing with memory hotplug.
 
  3) ACPI Intel LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver crash fix
 
   The ACPI LPSS driver crashes during boot on Apple Macbook Air with
   Haswell that has slightly unusual BIOS configuration in which one
   of the LPSS device's _CRS method doesn't return all of the information
   expected by the driver.  Fix from Mika Westerberg, for stable.
 
  4) ACPICA fix related to Store->ArgX operation
 
   AML interpreter fix for obscure breakage that causes AML to be
   executed incorrectly on some machines (observed in practice).  From
   Bob Moore.
 
  5) ACPI core fix for PCI ACPI device objects lookup
 
   There still are cases in which there is more than one ACPI device
   object matching a given PCI device and we don't choose the one that
   the BIOS expects us to choose, so this makes the lookup take more
   criteria into account in those cases.
 
  6) Fix to prevent cpuidle from crashing in some rare cases
 
   If the result of cpuidle_get_driver() is NULL, which can happen on
   some systems, cpuidle_driver_ref() will crash trying to use that
   pointer and the Daniel Fu's fix prevents that from happening.
 
  7) cpufreq fixes related to CPU hotplug
 
   Stephen Boyd reported a number of concurrency problems with cpufreq
   related to CPU hotplug which are addressed by a series of fixes
   from Srivatsa S Bhat and Viresh Kumar.
 
  8) cpufreq fix for time conversion in time_in_state attribute
 
   Time conversion carried out by cpufreq when user space attempts to
   read /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state won't
   work correcty if cputime_t doesn't map directly to jiffies.  Fix
   from Andreas Schwab.
 
  9) Revert of a troublesome cpufreq commit
 
   Commit 7c30ed5 (cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are
   serialized) was intended to address some known concurrency problems
   in cpufreq related to the ordering of transitions, but unfortunately
   it introduced several problems of its own, so I decided to revert it
   now and address the original problems later in a more robust way.
 
 10) Intel Haswell CPU models for intel_pstate from Nell Hardcastle.
 
 11) cpufreq fixes related to system suspend/resume
 
   The recent cpufreq changes that made it preserve CPU sysfs attributes
   over suspend/resume cycles introduced a possible NULL pointer
   dereference that caused it to crash during the second attempt to
   suspend.  Three commits from Srivatsa S Bhat fix that problem and a
   couple of related issues.
 
 12) cpufreq locking fix
 
   cpufreq_policy_restore() should acquire the lock for reading, but
   it acquires it for writing.  Fix from Lan Tianyu.

In fact, a panic caused by this bug was originally caught in RHEL6.4.

878b5a6efd uprobes: Fix utask->depth accounting in handle_trampoline()
Currently utask->depth is simply the number of allocated/pending
return_instance's in uprobe_task->return_instances list.

handle_trampoline() should decrement this counter every time we
handle/free an instance, but due to typo it does this only if
->chained == T. This means that in the likely case this counter
is never decremented and the probed task can't report more than
MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH events.

7bd3601446 timekeeping: Fix HRTICK related deadlock from ntp lock changes
Gerlando Falauto reported that when HRTICK is enabled, it is
possible to trigger system deadlocks. These were hard to
reproduce, as HRTICK has been broken in the past, but seemed
to be connected to the timekeeping_seq lock.

Since seqlock/seqcount's aren't supported w/ lockdep, I added
some extra spinlock based locking and triggered the following
lockdep output:

[   15.849182] ntpd/4062 is trying to acquire lock:
[   15.849765]  (&(&pool->lock)->rlock){..-...}, at: [<ffffffff810aa9b5>] __queue_work+0x145/0x480
[   15.850051]
[   15.850051] but task is already holding lock:
[   15.850051]  (timekeeper_lock){-.-.-.}, at: [<ffffffff810df6df>] do_adjtimex+0x7f/0x100

<snip>

[   15.850051] Chain exists of: &(&pool->lock)->rlock --> &p->pi_lock --> timekeeper_lock

[   15.850051] lock(&(&pool->lock)->rlock);
[   15.850051]
[   15.850051]  *** DEADLOCK ***

The deadlock was introduced by 06c017fdd4 ("timekeeping:
Hold timekeepering locks in do_adjtimex and hardpps") in 3.10

This patch avoids this deadlock, by moving the call to
schedule_delayed_work() outside of the timekeeper lock
critical section.

information to a panic will show up in pstore's view when kmsg_dump runs,
and is therefore not visible to crash reporting tools that examine pstore
output.

73af963f9f __ptrace_may_access() should not deny sub-threads
__ptrace_may_access() checks get_dumpable/ptrace_has_cap/etc if task !=
current, this can can lead to surprising results.

For example, a sub-thread can't readlink("/proc/self/exe") if the
executable is not readable.  setup_new_exec()->would_dump() notices that
inode_permission(MAY_READ) fails and then it does
set_dumpable(suid_dumpable).  After that get_dumpable() fails.

(It is not clear why proc_pid_readlink() checks get_dumpable(), perhaps we
could add PTRACE_MODE_NODUMPABLE)

Change __ptrace_may_access() to use same_thread_group() instead of "task
== current".  Any security check is pointless when the tasks share the
same ->mm.

af96397de8 kprobes: allow to specify custom allocator for insn caches
The current two insn slot caches both use module_alloc/module_free to
allocate and free insn slot cache pages.

For s390 this is not sufficient since there is the need to allocate insn
slots that are either within the vmalloc module area or within dma memory.

Therefore add a mechanism which allows to specify an own allocator for an
own insn slot cache.

c802d64a35 kprobes: unify insn caches
The current kpropes insn caches allocate memory areas for insn slots
with module_alloc().  The assumption is that the kernel image and module
area are both within the same +/- 2GB memory area.

This however is not true for s390 where the kernel image resides within
the first 2GB (DMA memory area), but the module area is far away in the
vmalloc area, usually somewhere close below the 4TB area.

For new pc relative instructions s390 needs insn slots that are within
+/- 2GB of each area.  That way we can patch displacements of
pc-relative instructions within the insn slots just like x86 and
powerpc.

The module area works already with the normal insn slot allocator,
however there is currently no way to get insn slots that are within the
first 2GB on s390 (aka DMA area).

Therefore this patch set modifies the kprobes insn slot cache code in
order to allow to specify a custom allocator for the insn slot cache
pages.  In addition architecure can now have private insn slot caches
withhout the need to modify common code.

Patch 1 unifies and simplifies the current insn and optinsn caches
        implementation. This is a preparation which allows to add more
        insn caches in a simple way.

Patch 2 adds the possibility to specify a custom allocator.

Patch 3 makes s390 use the new insn slot mechanisms and adds support for
        pc-relative instructions with long displacements.

This patch (of 3):

The two insn caches (insn, and optinsn) each have an own mutex and
alloc/free functions (get_[opt]insn_slot() / free_[opt]insn_slot()).

Since there is the need for yet another insn cache which satifies dma
allocations on s390, unify and simplify the current implementation:

- Move the per insn cache mutex into struct kprobe_insn_cache.
- Move the alloc/free functions to kprobe.h so they are simply
  wrappers for the generic __get_insn_slot/__free_insn_slot functions.
  The implementation is done with a DEFINE_INSN_CACHE_OPS() macro
  which provides the alloc/free functions for each cache if needed.
- move the struct kprobe_insn_cache to kprobe.h which allows to generate
  architecture specific insn slot caches outside of the core kprobes
  code.

202da40057 kernel/smp.c: quit unconditionally enabling irqs in on_each_cpu_mask().
As in commit f21afc25f9 ("smp.h: Use local_irq_{save,restore}() in
!SMP version of on_each_cpu()"), we don't want to enable irqs if they
are not already enabled.

I don't know of any bugs currently caused by this unconditional
local_irq_enable(), but I want to use this function in MIPS/OCTEON early
boot (when we have early_boot_irqs_disabled).  This also makes this
function have similar semantics to on_each_cpu() which is good in
itself.

All of the other non-trivial !SMP versions of functions in smp.h are
out-of-line in up.c.  Move on_each_cpu() there as well.

This allows us to get rid of the #include <linux/irqflags.h>.  The
drawback is that this makes both the x86_64 and i386 defconfig !SMP
kernels about 200 bytes larger each.

!SMP version of on_each_cpu()"), we don't want to enable irqs if they
are not already enabled.  There are currently no known problematical
callers of these functions, but since it is a known failure pattern, we
preemptively fix them.

Since they are not trivial functions, make them non-inline by moving
them to up.c.  This also makes it so we don't have to fix #include
dependancies for preempt_{disable,enable}.

c14c338cb0 kernel/spinlock.c: add default arch_*_relax definitions for GENERIC_LOCKBREAK
When running with GENERIC_LOCKBREAK=y, the locking implementations emit
calls to arch_{read,write,spin}_relax when spinning on a contended lock
in order to allow architectures to favour the CPU owning the lock if
possible.

In reality, everybody apart from PowerPC and S390 just does cpu_relax()
here, so make that the default behaviour and allow it to be overridden
if required.
