J. Bruce Fields 2c5e76158f nfsd: clean up grace period on early exit
If nfsd was shut down before the grace period ended, we could end up
with a freed object still on grace_list.  Thanks to Jeff Moyer for
reporting the resulting list corruption warnings.

Jean-Francois Moine 5c4fa002b1 V4L/DVB (9690): gspca: Lock the subdrivers via module_get/put.
The previous subdriver protection against rmmod was done via the
file operations table in the device descriptor. On device disconnection
while streaming, the device structure was freed at close time, and the
module_put still used the module name in the freed area.
Now, explicit module get/put are done on open and close.

Impact: avoid losing some traces when a task is freed

do_exit() is not the last function called when a task finishes.
There are still some functions which are to be called such as
ree_task().  So we delay the freeing of the return stack to the

Pekka Paalanen 7ee1768ddb x86, mmiotrace: fix buffer overrun detection
Impact: fix mmiotrace overrun tracing

When ftrace framework moved to use the ring buffer facility, the buffer
overrun detection was broken after 2.6.27 by commit

| commit 3928a8a2d9
| Author: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
| Date:   Mon Sep 29 23:02:41 2008 -0400
|
|     ftrace: make work with new ring buffer
|
|     This patch ports ftrace over to the new ring buffer.

The detection is now fixed by using the ring buffer API.

When mmiotrace detects a buffer overrun, it will report the number of
lost events. People reading an mmiotrace log must know if something was
missed, otherwise the data may not make sense.

If an interrupt cannot be injected for some reason (say, page fault
when fetching the IDT descriptor), the interrupt is marked for
reinjection.  However, if an NMI is queued at this time, the NMI

Fix by deferring the NMI injection until the interrupt has been

Ian Campbell 86bbc2c235 xen: pin correct PGD on suspend
Impact: fix Xen guest boot failure

commit eefb47f6a1 ("xen: use
spin_lock_nest_lock when pinning a pagetable") changed xen_pgd_walk to
walk over mm->pgd rather than taking pgd as an argument.

This breaks xen_mm_(un)pin_all() because it makes init_mm.pgd readonly
instead of the pgd we are interested in and therefore the pin subsequently
fails.

The manual revert of the sparse_irq patches missed to bring the number
of possible irqs back to the .27 status. This resulted in a regression
when two multichannel network cards were placed in a system with only
one IO_APIC - causing the networking driver to not have the right
IRQ and the device not coming up.

Remove the dynamic allocation logic leftovers and simply return
NR_IRQS in probe_nr_irqs() for now.

Impact: fix compiler warning

The ftrace_pointers used in the branch profiler are constant values.
They should never change. But the compiler complains when they are
passed into the debugfs_create_file as a data pointer, because the
function discards the qualifier.

This patch typecasts the parameter to debugfs_create_file back to
a void pointer. To remind the callbacks that they are pointing to
a constant value, I also modified the callback local pointers to
be const struct ftrace_pointer * as well.

Miss means the branch was not taken. Hit means the branch was taken.
The percent is the percentage the branch was taken.

This adds a significant amount of overhead and should only be used
by those analyzing their system.

Steven Rostedt bac28bfe42 trace: branch profiling should not print percent without data
Impact: cleanup on output of branch profiler

When a branch has not been taken, it does not make sense to show
a percentage incorrect or hit. This patch changes the behaviour
to print out a 'X' when the branch has not been executed yet.

For example:

 correct incorrect  %        Function                  File              Line

Steven Rostedt 45b797492a trace: consolidate unlikely and likely profiler
Impact: clean up to make one profiler of like and unlikely tracer

The likely and unlikely profiler prints out the file and line numbers
of the annotated branches that it is profiling. It shows the number
of times it was correct or incorrect in its guess. Having two
different files or sections for that matter to tell us if it was a
likely or unlikely is pretty pointless. We really only care if
it was correct or not.

Steven Rostedt c204f7264c ftrace: create default variables for archs in recordmcount.pl
Impact: cleanup of recordmcount.pl

Now that more architectures are being ported to the MCOUNT_RECORD
method, there is no reason to have each declare their own arch
specific variable if most of them share the same value. This patch
creates a set of default values for the arch specific variables
based off of i386.

Ingo Molnar cbe2f5a6e8 tracing: allow tracing of suspend/resume & hibernation code again
Impact: widen function-tracing to suspend+resume (and hibernation) sequences

Now that the ftrace kernel thread is gone, we can allow tracing
during suspend/resume again.

So revert these two commits:

  f42ac38c5 "ftrace: disable tracing for suspend to ram"
  41108eb10 "ftrace: disable tracing for hibernation"

This should be tested very carefully, as it could interact with
altneratives instruction patching, etc.

Török Edwin b54d3de9f3 tracing: identify which executable object the userspace address belongs to
Impact: modify+improve the userstacktrace tracing visualization feature

Store thread group leader id, and use it to lookup the address in the
process's map. We could have looked up the address on thread's map,
but the thread might not exist by the time we are called. The process
might not exist either, but if you are reading trace_pipe, that is
unlikely.

Example usage:

 mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
 cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
 echo sym-userobj >iter_ctrl
 echo sched_switch >current_tracer
 echo 1 >tracing_enabled
 cat trace_pipe >/tmp/trace&
 .... run application ...
 echo 0 >tracing_enabled
 cat /tmp/trace

You'll see stack entries like:

   /lib/libpthread-2.7.so[+0xd370]

You can convert them to function/line using:

   addr2line -fie /lib/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370

Or:

   addr2line -fie /usr/lib/debug/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370

For non-PIC/PIE executables this won't work:

   a.out[+0x73b]

You need to run the following: addr2line -fie a.out 0x40073b
(where 0x400000 is the default load address of a.out)

Usage example:

 cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
 echo sched_switch >current_tracer
 echo 1 >tracing_enabled
 .... run application ...
 echo 0 >tracing_enabled

Then read one of 'trace','latency_trace','trace_pipe'.

To get the best output you can compile your userspace programs with
frame pointers (at least glibc + the app you are tracing).
