The number of lost samples could be greater than the number of received samples. This patches fixes this. The implementation introduces return values for add_sample() and add_code(). Signed-off-by: NRobert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

This function is no longer available after the port to the new ring buffer. Its removal can lead to incomplete sampling sequences since IBS samples and backtraces are transfered in multiple samples. Due to a full buffer, samples could be lost any time. The userspace daemon has to live with such incomplete sampling sequences as long as the data within one sample is consistent. This will be fixed by changing the internal buffer data there all data of one IBS sample or a backtrace is packed in a single ring buffer entry. This is possible since the new ring buffer supports variable data size. Signed-off-by: NRobert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

This patch replaces the current oprofile cpu buffer implementation with the ring buffer provided by the tracing framework. The motivation here is to leave the pain of implementing ring buffers to others. Oh, no, there are more advantages. Main reason is the support of different sample sizes that could be stored in the buffer. Use cases for this are IBS and Cell spu profiling. Using the new ring buffer ensures valid and complete samples and allows copying the cpu buffer stateless without knowing its content. Second it will use generic kernel API and also reduce code size. And hopefully, there are less bugs. Since the new tracing ring buffer implementation uses spin locks to protect the buffer during read/write access, it is difficult to use the buffer in an NMI handler. In this case, writing to the buffer by the NMI handler (x86) could occur also during critical sections when reading the buffer. To avoid this, there are 2 buffers for independent read and write access. Read access is in process context only, write access only in the NMI handler. If the read buffer runs empty, both buffers are swapped atomically. There is potentially a small window during swapping where the buffers are disabled and samples could be lost. Using 2 buffers is a little bit overhead, but the solution is clear and does not require changes in the ring buffer implementation. It can be changed to a single buffer solution when the ring buffer access is implemented as non-locking atomic code. The new buffer requires more size to store the same amount of samples because each sample includes an u32 header. Also, there is more code to execute for buffer access. Nonetheless, the buffer implementation is proven in the ftrace environment and worth to use also in oprofile. Patches that changes the internal IBS buffer usage will follow.

The issue is the SPU code is not holding the kernel mutex lock while adding samples to the kernel buffer. This patch creates per SPU buffers to hold the data. Data is added to the buffers from in interrupt context. The data is periodically pushed to the kernel buffer via a new Oprofile function oprofile_put_buff(). The oprofile_put_buff() function is called via a work queue enabling the funtion to acquire the mutex lock. The existing user controls for adjusting the per CPU buffer size is used to control the size of the per SPU buffers. Similarly, overflows of the SPU buffers are reported by incrementing the per CPU buffer stats. This eliminates the need to have architecture specific controls for the per SPU buffers which is not acceptable to the OProfile user tool maintainer. The export of the oprofile add_event_entry() is removed as it is no longer needed given this patch. Note, this patch has not addressed the issue of indexing arrays by the spu number. This still needs to be fixed as the spu numbering is not guarenteed to be 0 to max_num_spus-1.

This patch addresses problems when hotplugging cpus while profiling. Instead of allocating only online cpus, all possible cpu buffers are allocated, which allows cpus to be onlined during operation. If a cpu is offlined before profiling is shutdown wq_sync_buffer checks for this condition then cancels this work and does not sync this buffer.

Instruction pointer returned by profile_pc() can be a random value. This break the assumption than we can safely set struct op_sample.eip field to a magic value to signal to the per-cpu buffer reader side special event like task switch ending up in a segfault in get_task_mm() when profile_pc() return ~0UL. Fixed by sanitizing the sampled eip and reject/log invalid eip. Problem reported by Sami Farin, patch tested by him.

When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all. The correct way of doing this is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu(). This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS. I found very few instances of this bug, if any. But the patch converts lots of open-coded test to use the preferred helper macros.

`gcc -W' likes to complain if the static keyword is not at the beginning of the declaration. This patch fixes all remaining occurrences of "inline static" up with "static inline" in the entire kernel tree (140 occurrences in 47 files). While making this change I came across a few lines with trailing whitespace that I also fixed up, I have also added or removed a blank line or two here and there, but there are no functional changes in the patch.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
