This patch adds per-event filtering to the event tracing subsystem.

It adds a 'filter' debugfs file to each event directory.  This file can
be written to to set filters; reading from it will display the current
set of filters set for that event.

Basically, any field listed in the 'format' file for an event can be
filtered on (including strings, but not yet other array types) using
either matching ('==') or non-matching ('!=') 'predicates'.  A
'predicate' can be either a single expression:

 # echo pid != 0 > filter

 # cat filter
 pid != 0

or a compound expression of up to 8 sub-expressions combined using '&&'
or '||':

 # echo comm == Xorg > filter
 # echo "&& sig != 29" > filter

 # cat filter
 comm == Xorg
 && sig != 29

Only events having field values matching an expression will be available
in the trace output; non-matching events are discarded.

Note that a compound expression is built up by echoing each
sub-expression separately - it's not the most efficient way to do
things, but it keeps the parser simple and assumes that compound
expressions will be relatively uncommon.  In any case, a subsequent
patch introducing a way to set filters for entire subsystems should
mitigate any need to do this for lots of events.

Setting a filter without an '&&' or '||' clears the previous filter
completely and sets the filter to the new expression:

 # cat filter
 comm == Xorg
 && sig != 29

 # echo comm != Xorg

 # cat filter
 comm != Xorg

To clear a filter, echo 0 to the filter file:

 # echo 0 > filter
 # cat filter
 none

The limit of 8 predicates for a compound expression is arbitrary - for
efficiency, it's implemented as an array of pointers to predicates, and
8 seemed more than enough for any filter...

This patch makes the field descriptions defined for event tracing
available at run-time, for the event-filtering mechanism introduced
in a subsequent patch.

The common event fields are prepended with 'common_' in the format
display, allowing them to be distinguished from the other fields
that might internally have same name and can therefore be
unambiguously used in filters.

Impact: detect tracing related hangs

Sometimes, with some configs, the function graph tracer can make
the timer interrupt too much slow, hanging the kernel in an endless
loop of timer interrupts servicing.

As suggested by Ingo, this patch brings a watchdog which stops the
selftest after a defined number of functions traced, definitely
disabling this tracer.

For those who want to debug the cause of the function graph trace
hang, you can pass the ftrace_dump_on_oops kernel parameter to dump
the traces after this hang detection.

Merge branch 'tip/tracing/ftrace' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace into tracing/ftrace

The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a
bogus io context was returning the 1 valid io context from the list
(harness/cases/3.p).

Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process
exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio
(since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0).

The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless"
(commit abf137dd).

Thanks to Zach for pointing out that hlist_for_each_entry_rcu will not
return with a NULL tpos at the end of the loop, even if the entry was
not found.

Remove a source of fput() call from inside IRQ context.  Myself, like Eric,
wasn't able to reproduce an fput() call from IRQ context, but Jeff said he was
able to, with the attached test program.  Independently from this, the bug is
conceptually there, so we might be better off fixing it.  This patch adds an
optimization similar to the one we already do on ->ki_filp, on ->ki_eventfd.
Playing with ->f_count directly is not pretty in general, but the alternative

With the added TRACE_EVENT macro, the events no longer appear in
the function graph tracer. This was because the function graph
did not know how to display the entries. The graph tracer was
only aware of its own entries and the printk entries.

By using the event call back feature, the graph tracer can now display
the events.

Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

Currently, the function graph tracer depends on the trace_printk
to record the depth. All the information is already there in the trace
to calculate function depth, with the exception of having the printk
be the first item. But as soon as a entry or exit is reached, then
we know the depth.

This patch changes the iter->private data from recording a per cpu
last_pid, to a structure that holds both the last_pid and the current
depth. This data is used to determine the function depth for the
printks.

Nick Piggin noticed this (very unlikely) race between setting a page
dirty and creating the buffers for it - we need to hold the mapping
private_lock until we've set the page dirty bit in order to make sure
that create_empty_buffers() might not build up a set of buffers without
the dirty bits set when the page is dirty.

I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue
Nick was looking at), but as Nick says: "Still, it does appear to solve
a real race, which we should close."

Impact: fix warning with irqsoff tracer

The ring buffer allocates its buffers on pre-smp time (early_initcall).
It means that, at first, only the boot cpu buffer is allocated and
the ring-buffer cpumask only has the boot cpu set (cpu_online_mask).

Later, the secondary cpu will show up and the ring-buffer will be notified
about this event: the appropriate buffer will be allocated and the cpumask
will be updated.

Unfortunately, if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG, the ring-buffer will not be
notified about the secondary cpus, meaning that the cpumask will have
only the cpu boot set, and only one cpu buffer allocated.

We fix that by using cpu_possible_mask if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG.

This patch fixes the following warning with irqsoff tracer running:

Make page table walking on s390 more robust. The current code requires
that the pgd/pud/pmd/pte loop is only done for address ranges that are
below the end address of the last vma of the address space. But this
is not always true, e.g. the generic page table walker does not guarantee
this. Change TASK_SIZE/TASK_SIZE_OF to reflect the current size of the
address space. This makes the generic page table walker happy but it
breaks the upgrade of a 3 level page table to a 4 level page table.
To make the upgrade work again another fix is required.
