Convert the PM documents to ReST, in order to allow them to
build with Sphinx.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and indentation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Masami Hiramatsu 970988e19e tracing/kprobe: Add kprobe_event= boot parameter
Add kprobe_event= boot parameter to define kprobe events
at boot time.
The definition syntax is similar to tracefs/kprobe_events
interface, but use ',' and ';' instead of ' ' and '\n'
respectively. e.g.

  kprobe_event=p,vfs_read,$arg1,$arg2

This puts a probe on vfs_read with argument1 and 2, and
enable the new event.

Masami Hiramatsu e65f7ae7f4 tracing/probe: Support user-space dereference
Support user-space dereference syntax for probe event arguments
to dereference the data-structure or array in user-space.

The syntax is just adding 'u' before an offset value.

 +|-u<OFFSET>(<FETCHARG>)

e.g. +u8(%ax), +u0(+0(%si))

For example, if you probe do_sched_setscheduler(pid, policy,
param) and record param->sched_priority, you can add new
probe as below;

 p do_sched_setscheduler priority=+u0($arg3)

Note that kprobe event provides this and it doesn't change the
dereference method automatically because we do not know whether
the given address is in userspace or kernel on some archs.

So as same as "ustring", this is an option for user, who has to
carefully choose the dereference method.

Masami Hiramatsu 88903c4643 tracing/probe: Add ustring type for user-space string
Add "ustring" type for fetching user-space string from kprobe event.
User can specify ustring type at uprobe event, and it is same as
"string" for uprobe.

Note that probe-event provides this option but it doesn't choose the
correct type automatically since we have not way to decide the address
is in user-space or not on some arch (and on some other arch, you can
fetch the string by "string" type). So user must carefully check the
target code (e.g. if you see __user on the target variable) and
use this new type.

Kirill Tkhai 886cf1901d mm: move recent_rotated pages calculation to shrink_inactive_list()
Patch series "mm: Generalize putback functions"]

putback_inactive_pages() and move_active_pages_to_lru() are almost
similar, so this patchset merges them ina single function.

This patch (of 4):

The patch moves the calculation from putback_inactive_pages() to
shrink_inactive_list().  This makes putback_inactive_pages() looking more
similar to move_active_pages_to_lru().

To do that, we account activated pages in reclaim_stat::nr_activate.
Since a page may change its LRU type from anon to file cache inside
shrink_page_list() (see ClearPageSwapBacked()), we have to account pages
for the both types.  So, nr_activate becomes an array.

Previously we used nr_activate to account PGACTIVATE events, but now we
account them into pgactivate variable (since they are about number of
pages in general, not about sum of hpage_nr_pages).

Tom Zanussi e91eefd731 tracing: Add alternative synthetic event trace action syntax
Add a 'trace(synthetic_event_name, params)' alternative to
synthetic_event_name(params).

Currently, the syntax used for generating synthetic events is to
invoke synthetic_event_name(params) i.e. use the synthetic event name
as a function call.

Users requested a new form that more explicitly shows that the
synthetic event is in effect being traced.  In this version, a new
'trace()' keyword is used, and the synthetic event name is passed in
as the first argument.

In addition, for the sake of consistency with other actions, change
the documention to emphasize the trace() form over the function-call
form, which remains documented as equivalent.

Steven Rostedt (VMware) f79b3f3385 ftrace: Allow enabling of filters via index of available_filter_functions
Enabling of large number of functions by echoing in a large subset of the
functions in available_filter_functions can take a very long time. The
process requires testing all functions registered by the function tracer
(which is in the 10s of thousands), and doing a kallsyms lookup to convert
the ip address into a name, then comparing that name with the string passed
in.

When a function causes the function tracer to crash the system, a binary
bisect of the available_filter_functions can be done to find the culprit.
But this requires passing in half of the functions in
available_filter_functions over and over again, which makes it basically a
O(n^2) operation. With 40,000 functions, that ends up bing 1,600,000,000
opertions! And enabling this can take over 20 minutes.

As a quick speed up, if a number is passed into one of the filter files,
instead of doing a search, it just enables the function at the corresponding
line of the available_filter_functions file. That is:

 # echo 50 > set_ftrace_filter
 # cat set_ftrace_filter
 x86_pmu_commit_txn

 # head -50 available_filter_functions | tail -1
 x86_pmu_commit_txn

This allows setting of half the available_filter_functions to take place in
less than a second!

 # time seq 20000 > set_ftrace_filter
 real    0m0.042s
 user    0m0.005s
 sys     0m0.015s

 # wc -l set_ftrace_filter
 20000 set_ftrace_filter

- Rework of the kprobe/uprobe and synthetic events to consolidate all
    the dynamic event code. This will make changes in the future easier.
 
  - Partial rewrite of the function graph tracing infrastructure.
    This will allow for multiple users of hooking onto functions
    to get the callback (return) of the function. This is the ground
    work for having kprobes and function graph tracer using one code base.
 
  - Clean up of the histogram code that will facilitate adding more
    features to the histograms in the future.
 
  - Addition of str_has_prefix() and a few use cases. There currently
    is a similar function strstart() that is used in a few places, but
    only returns a bool and not a length. These instances will be
    removed in the future to use str_has_prefix() instead.
 
  - A few other various clean ups as well.

Linus Torvalds 343a9f3540 The biggest change here is the updates to kprobes
Back in January I posted patches to create function based events. These were
 the events that you suggested I make to allow developers to easily create
 events in code where no trace event exists. After posting those changes for
 review, it was suggested that we implement this instead with kprobes.
 
 The problem with kprobes is that the interface is too complex and needs to
 be simplified. Masami Hiramatsu posted patches in March and I've been
 playing with them a bit. There's been a bit of clean up in the kprobe code
 that was inspired by the function based event patches, and a couple of
 enhancements to the kprobe event interface.
 
  - If the arch supports it (we added support for x86), you can place a
    kprobe event at the start of a function and use $arg1, $arg2, etc
    to reference the arguments of a function. (Before you needed to know
    what register or where on the stack the argument was).
 
  - The second is a way to see array of events. For example, if you reference
    a mac address, you can add:
 
    echo 'p:mac ip_rcv perm_addr=+574($arg2):x8[6]' > kprobe_events
 
    And this will produce:
 
    mac: (ip_rcv+0x0/0x140) perm_addr={0x52,0x54,0x0,0xc0,0x76,0xec}
 
 Other changes include
 
  - Exporting trace_dump_stack to modules
 
  - Have the stack tracer trace the entire stack (stop trying to remove
    tracing itself, as we keep removing too much).
 
  - Added support for SDT in uprobes

Masami Hiramatsu a1303af5d7 tracing: probeevent: Add $argN for accessing function args
Add $argN special fetch variable for accessing function
arguments. This allows user to trace the Nth argument easily
at the function entry.

Note that this returns most probably assignment of registers
and stacks. In some case, it may not work well. If you need
to access correct registers or stacks you should use perf-probe.

Masami Hiramatsu 40b53b7718 tracing: probeevent: Add array type support
Add array type support for probe events.
This allows user to get arraied types from memory address.
The array type syntax is

	TYPE[N]

Where TYPE is one of types (u8/16/32/64,s8/16/32/64,
x8/16/32/64, symbol, string) and N is a fixed value less
than 64.

The string array type is a bit different from other types. For
other base types, <base-type>[1] is equal to <base-type>
(e.g. +0(%di):x32[1] is same as +0(%di):x32.) But string[1] is not
equal to string. The string type itself represents "char array",
but string array type represents "char * array". So, for example,
+0(%di):string[1] is equal to +0(+0(%di)):string.

Masami Hiramatsu 60c2e0cebf tracing: probeevent: Add symbol type
Add "symbol" type to probeevent, which is an alias of u32 or u64
(depends on BITS_PER_LONG). This shows the result value in
symbol+offset style. This type is only available with kprobe
events.

Linus Torvalds e6ecec342f This was a moderately busy cycle for docs, with the usual collection of
small fixes and updates.  We also have new ktime_get_*() docs from Arnd,
 some kernel-doc fixes, a new set of Italian translations (non so se vale la
 pena, ma non fa male - speriamo bene), and some extensive early
 memory-management documentation improvements from Mike Rapoport.

Ruchi Kandoi 601b218568 cpufreq: trace frequency limits change
systrace used for tracing for Android systems has carried a patch for
many years in the Android tree that traces when the cpufreq limits
change.  With the help of this information, systrace can know when the
policy limits change and can visually display the data. Lets add
upstream support for the same.

- Mark the document title as such;
- Identify and indent the literal blocks;
- Use the proper markups for table.
