I missed a perf_event_ctxp user when converting it to an array. Pull this
last user into perf_event.c as well and fix it up.

Assuming we don't mix events of different pmus onto a single context
(with the exeption of software events inside a hardware group) we can
now assume that all events on a particular context belong to the same
pmu, hence we can disable the pmu for the entire context operations.
This reduces the amount of hardware writes.
The exception for swevents comes from the fact that the sw pmu disable
is a nop.

Since software events are always schedulable, mixing them up with
hardware events (who are not) can lead to funny scheduling oddities.
Giving them their own context solves this.

Provide the infrastructure for multiple task contexts.
A more flexible approach would have resulted in more pointer chases
in the scheduling hot-paths. This approach has the limitation of a
static number of task contexts.
Since I expect most external PMUs to be system wide, or at least node
wide (as per the intel uncore unit) they won't actually need a task
context.

Give each cpu-context its own timer so that it is a self contained
entity, this eases the way for per-pmu-per-cpu contexts as well as
provides the basic infrastructure to allow different rotation
times per pmu.
Things to look at:
- folding the tick and these TICK_NSEC timers
- separate task context rotation

Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with
pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument.
The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while
keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with
the generic stopped state.
This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain
code paths (like IRQ handlers).
It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for
a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters).
The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on
how the architecture implemented the throttled state:
1) We disable the counter:
a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that
b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state
2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events

Check the argument name whether it is invalid (not C-like symbol name). This
makes event format simple.

Set "argN" name for each argument automatically if it has no specified name.
Since dynamic trace event(kprobe_events) accepts special characters for its
argument, its format can show those special characters (e.g. '$', '%', '+').
However, perf can't parse those format because of the character (especially
'%') mess up the format. This sets "argX" name for those arguments if user
omitted the argument names.
E.g.
# echo 'p do_fork %ax IP=%ip $stack' > tracing/kprobe_events
# cat tracing/kprobe_events
p:kprobes/p_do_fork_0 do_fork arg1=%ax IP=%ip arg3=$stack

Fix a memory leak which happens when a field name conflicts with others. In
error case, free_trace_probe() will free all arguments until nr_args, so this
increments nr_args the begining of the loop instead of the end.

Reading the file set_ftrace_filter does three things.
1) shows whether or not filters are set for the function tracer
2) shows what functions are set for the function tracer
3) shows what triggers are set on any functions
3 is independent from 1 and 2.
The way this file currently works is that it is a state machine,
and as you read it, it may change state. But this assumption breaks
when you use lseek() on the file. The state machine gets out of sync
and the t_show() may use the wrong pointer and cause a kernel oops.
Luckily, this will only kill the app that does the lseek, but the app
dies while holding a mutex. This prevents anyone else from using the
set_ftrace_filter file (or any other function tracing file for that matter).
A real fix for this is to rewrite the code, but that is too much for
a -rc release or stable. This patch simply disables llseek on the
set_ftrace_filter() file for now, and we can do the proper fix for the
next major release.

During my rewrite, the semantics of touch_nmi_watchdog and
touch_softlockup_watchdog changed enough to break some drivers
(mostly over preemptable regions).
These are cases where long delays on one CPU (due to
print_delay for example) can cause long delays on other
CPUs - so we must 'touch' the nmi_watchdog flag of those
other CPUs as well.
This change brings those touch_*_watchdog() functions back in line
with to how they used to work.

While we are reading trace_stat/functionX and someone just
disabled function_profile at that time, we can trigger this:
divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
...
EIP is at function_stat_show+0x90/0x230
...
This fix just takes the ftrace_profile_lock and checks if
rec->counter is 0. If it's 0, we know the profile buffer
has been reset.

Per-thread events with a cpu filter, i.e., cpu != -1, were not
reporting correct timings when the thread never ran on the
monitored cpu. The time enabled was reported as a negative
value.
This patch fixes the problem by updating tstamp_stopped,
tstamp_running in event_sched_out() for events with filters and
which are marked as INACTIVE.
The function group_sched_out() is modified to systematically
call into event_sched_out() to avoid duplicating the timing
adjustment code twice.
With the patch, I now get:
$ task_cpu -i -e unhalted_core_cycles,unhalted_core_cycles

While discussing the strictness of the 80 character limit on the
Kernel Summit Discussion mailing list, I showed examples that I
broke that limit slightly with some algorithms. In discussing with
John Linville, what looked better, I realized that two of the
80 char breaking culprits were an identical expression.
As a clean up, this patch moves the identical expression into its
own helper function and that is used instead. As a side effect,
the offending code is now under the 80 character limit. :-)
This clean up code also changes the expression from
(A - B) - C to A - (B + C)
This makes the code look a little nicer too.

By the commit e6bde73b07edeb703d4c89c1daabc09c303de11f
("cpu-hotplug: return better errno on cpu hotplug failure"),
the cpu notifier can return encapsulate errno value, resulting
in more meaningful error codes for CPU hotplug failures.
This converts the cpu notifier to return encapsulate errno value
for the lockup_detector as well.

Stephane reported that when the machine locks up, the regular ticks,
which are responsible to resetting the throttle count, stop too.
Hence the NMI watchdog can end up being throttled before it reports on
the locked up state, and we end up being sad..
Cure this by having the watchdog overflow reset its own throttle count.

There is a scalability issue for current implementation of optimistic
mutex spin in the kernel. It is found on a 8 node 64 core Nehalem-EX
system (HT mode).
The intention of the optimistic mutex spin is to busy wait and spin on a
mutex if the owner of the mutex is running, in the hope that the mutex
will be released soon and be acquired, without the thread trying to
acquire mutex going to sleep. However, when we have a large number of
threads, contending for the mutex, we could have the mutex grabbed by
other thread, and then another ……, and we will keep spinning, wasting cpu
cycles and adding to the contention. One possible fix is to quit
spinning and put the current thread on wait-list if mutex lock switch to
a new owner while we spin, indicating heavy contention (see the patch
included).
I did some testing on a 8 socket Nehalem-EX system with a total of 64
cores. Using Ingo's test-mutex program that creates/delete files with 256
threads (http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/8/50) , I see the following speed up
after putting in the mutex spin fix:
./mutex-test V 256 10
Ops/sec
2.6.34 62864
With fix 197200
Repeating the test with Aim7 fserver workload, again there is a speed up
with the fix:
Jobs/min
2.6.34 91657
With fix 149325
To look at the impact on the distribution of mutex acquisition time, I
collected the mutex acquisition time on Aim7 fserver workload with some
instrumentation. The average acquisition time is reduced by 48% and
number of contentions reduced by 32%.
#contentions Time to acquire mutex (cycles)
2.6.34 72973 44765791
With fix 49210 23067129
The histogram of mutex acquisition time is listed below. The acquisition
time is in 2^bin cycles. We see that without the fix, the acquisition
time is mostly around 2^26 cycles. With the fix, we the distribution get
spread out a lot more towards the lower cycles, starting from 2^13.
However, there is an increase of the tail distribution with the fix at
2^28 and 2^29 cycles. It seems a small price to pay for the reduced
average acquisition time and also getting the cpu to do useful work.
Mutex acquisition time distribution (acq time = 2^bin cycles):
2.6.34 With Fix
bin #occurrence % #occurrence %

I've done similar experiments with 2.6.35 kernel on smaller boxes as
well. One is on a dual-socket Westmere box (12 cores total, with HT).
Another experiment is on an old dual-socket Core 2 box (4 cores total, no
HT)
On the 12-core Westmere box, I see a 250% increase for Ingo's mutex-test
program with my mutex patch but no significant difference in aim7's
fserver workload.
On the 4-core Core 2 box, I see the difference with the patch for both
mutex-test and aim7 fserver are negligible.
So far, it seems like the patch has not caused regression on smaller
systems.

With the introduction of the new unified work queue thread pools,
we lost one feature: It's no longer possible to know which worker
is causing the CPU to wake out of idle. The result is that PowerTOP
now reports a lot of "kworker/a:b" instead of more readable results.
This patch adds a pair of tracepoints to the new workqueue code,
similar in style to the timer/hrtimer tracepoints.
With this pair of tracepoints, the next PowerTOP can correctly
report which work item caused the wakeup (and how long it took):
Interrupt (43) i915 time 3.51ms wakeups 141
Work ieee80211_iface_work time 0.81ms wakeups 29
Work do_dbs_timer time 0.55ms wakeups 24
Process Xorg time 21.36ms wakeups 4
Timer sched_rt_period_timer time 0.01ms wakeups 1

It's a really simple list, and several of the users want to go backwards
in it to find the previous vma. So rather than have to look up the
previous entry with 'find_vma_prev()' or something similar, just make it
doubly linked instead.

fs: fs_struct rwlock to spinlock
struct fs_struct.lock is an rwlock with the read-side used to protect root and
pwd members while taking references to them. Taking a reference to a path
typically requires just 2 atomic ops, so the critical section is very small.
Parallel read-side operations would have cacheline contention on the lock, the
dentry, and the vfsmount cachelines, so the rwlock is unlikely to ever give a
real parallelism increase.
Replace it with a spinlock to avoid one or two atomic operations in typical
path lookup fastpath.

If CONFIG_KGDB_KDB is set and CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set the kernel
will fail to build with the error:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_next':
kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:237: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_complete':
kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:193: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms'
The kdb_walk_kallsyms needs a #ifdef proper header to match the C
implementation. This patch also fixes the compiler warnings in
kdb_support.c when compiling without CONFIG_KALLSYMS set. The
compiler warnings are a result of the kallsyms_lookup() macro not
initializing the two of the pass by reference variables.

Using a program like the following:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
int main() {
id_t id;
siginfo_t infop;
pid_t res;
id = fork();
if (id == 0) { sleep(1); exit(0); }
kill(id, SIGSTOP);
alarm(1);
waitid(P_PID, id, &infop, WCONTINUED);
return 0;
}
to call waitid() on a stopped process results in access to the child task's
credentials without the RCU read lock being held - which may be replaced in the
meantime - eliciting the following warning:
===================================================
[ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
---------------------------------------------------
kernel/exit.c:1460 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
other info that might help us debug this:

wait_consider_task+0x19a/0xbe0
stack backtrace:
Pid: 22252, comm: waitid02 Not tainted 2.6.35-323cd+ #3
Call Trace:

[<ffffffff8105fce0>] ? child_wait_callback+0x0/0x70
[<ffffffff81003282>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
This is fixed by holding the RCU read lock in wait_task_continued() to ensure
that the task's current credentials aren't destroyed between us reading the
cred pointer and us reading the UID from those credentials.
Furthermore, protect wait_task_stopped() in the same way.
We don't need to keep holding the RCU read lock once we've read the UID from
the credentials as holding the RCU read lock doesn't stop the target task from
changing its creds under us - so the credentials may be outdated immediately
after we've read the pointer, lock or no lock.

Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:
arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().
do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.
Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.
This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.
