The function start_func_tracer() was incorrectly added in the
 #ifdef CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER condition, but is still used even
when function tracing is not enabled.

The calls to register_ftrace_function() and register_ftrace_graph()
become nops (and their arguments are even ignored), thus there is
no reason to hide start_func_tracer() when function tracing is
not enabled.

Commit c3f00c70 ("perf: Separate find_get_context() from event
initialization") changed the generic perf_event code to call
perf_event_alloc, which calls the arch-specific event_init code,
before looking up the context for the new event.  Unfortunately,
power_pmu_event_init uses event->ctx->task to see whether the
new event is a per-task event or a system-wide event, and thus
crashes since event->ctx is NULL at the point where
power_pmu_event_init gets called.

(The reason it needs to know whether it is a per-task event is
because there are some hardware events on Power systems which
only count when the processor is not idle, and there are some
fixed-function counters which count such events.  For example,
the "run cycles" event counts cycles when the processor is not
idle.  If the user asks to count cycles, we can use "run cycles"
if this is a per-task event, since the processor is running when
the task is running, by definition.  We can't use "run cycles"
if the user asks for "cycles" on a system-wide counter.)

Fortunately the information we need is in the
event->attach_state field, so we just use that instead.

Merge branch 'tip/perf/recordmcount-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace into perf/core

When DYNAMIC_FTRACE is enabled and we use the C version of recordmcount,
all objects are run through the recordmcount program to create a
separate section that stores all the callers of mcount.

The build process has a special file: scripts/mod/empty.o. This is
built from empty.c which is literally an empty file (except for a
single comment). This file is used to find information about the target
elf format, like endianness and word size.

The problem comes up when we need to build recordmcount. The
build process requires that empty.o is built first. The build rules
for empty.o will try to execute recordmcount on the empty.o file.
We get an error that recordmcount does not exist.

To avoid this recursion, the build file will skip running recordmcount
if the file that it is building is script/mod/empty.o.

hw_breakpoint creation needs to account stuff per-task to ensure there
is always sufficient hardware resources to back these things due to
ptrace.

With the perf per pmu context changes the event initialization no
longer has access to the event context, for the simple reason that we
need to first find the pmu (result of initialization) before we can
find the context.

This makes hw_breakpoints unhappy, because it can no longer do per
task accounting, cure this by frobbing a task pointer in the event::hw
bits for now...

Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.

Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.

The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.

Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

The group_sched_in() function uses a transactional approach to schedule
a group of events. In a group, either all events can be scheduled or
none are. To schedule each event in, the function calls event_sched_in().
In case of error, event_sched_out() is called on each event in the group.

The problem is that event_sched_out() does not completely cancel the
effects of event_sched_in(). Furthermore event_sched_out() changes the
state of the event as if it had run which is not true is this particular
case.

Those inconsistencies impact time tracking fields and may lead to events
in a group not all reporting the same time_enabled and time_running values.
This is demonstrated with the example below:

$ task -eunhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears -e unhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears sleep 5
1946101 unhalted_core_cycles (32.85% scaling, ena=829181, run=556827)
  11423 baclears (32.85% scaling, ena=829181, run=556827)
   7671 baclears (0.00% scaling, ena=556827, run=556827)

2250443 unhalted_core_cycles (57.83% scaling, ena=962822, run=405995)
  11705 baclears (57.83% scaling, ena=962822, run=405995)
  11705 baclears (57.83% scaling, ena=962822, run=405995)

Notice that in the first group, the last baclears event does not
report the same timings as its siblings.

This issue comes from the fact that tstamp_stopped is updated
by event_sched_out() as if the event had actually run.

To solve the issue, we must ensure that, in case of error, there is
no change in the event state whatsoever. That means timings must
remain as they were when entering group_sched_in().

To do this we defer updating tstamp_running until we know the
transaction succeeded. Therefore, we have split event_sched_in()
in two parts separating the update to tstamp_running.

Similarly, in case of error, we do not want to update tstamp_stopped.
Therefore, we have split event_sched_out() in two parts separating
the update to tstamp_stopped.

With this patch, we now get the following output:

$ task -eunhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears -e unhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears sleep 5
2492050 unhalted_core_cycles (71.75% scaling, ena=1093330, run=308841)
  11243 baclears (71.75% scaling, ena=1093330, run=308841)
  11243 baclears (71.75% scaling, ena=1093330, run=308841)

1852746 unhalted_core_cycles (0.00% scaling, ena=784489, run=784489)
   9253 baclears (0.00% scaling, ena=784489, run=784489)
   9253 baclears (0.00% scaling, ena=784489, run=784489)

Note that the uneven timing between groups is a side effect of
the process spending most of its time sleeping, i.e., not enough
event rotations (but that's a separate issue).

You can only call update_context_time() when the context
is active, i.e., the thread it is attached to is still running.

However, perf_event_read() can be called even when the context
is inactive, e.g., user read() the counters. The call to
update_context_time() must be conditioned on the status of
the context, otherwise, bogus time_enabled, time_running may
be returned. Here is an example on AMD64. The task program
is an example from libpfm4. The -p prints deltas every 1s.

$ task -p -e cpu_clk_unhalted sleep 5
    2,266,610 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982)
	    0 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982)
	    0 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982)
	    0 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982)
	    0 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982)
5,242,358,071 cpu_clk_unhalted (99.95% scaling, ena=5,000,359,984, run=2,319,270)

Whereas if you don't read deltas, e.g., no call to perf_event_read() until
the process terminates:

$ task -e cpu_clk_unhalted sleep 5
    2,497,783 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,376,899, run=2,376,899)

Notice that time_enable, time_running are bogus in the first example
causing bogus scaling.

This patch fixes the problem, by conditionally calling update_context_time()
in perf_event_read().

Even though the parent is recorded with the normal function tracing
of the latency tracers (irqsoff and wakeup), the function graph
recording is bogus.

This is due to the function graph messing with the return stack.
The latency tracers pass in as the parent CALLER_ADDR0, which
works fine for plain function tracing. But this causes bogus output
with the graph tracer:

 3)    <idle>-0    |  d.s3.  0.000 us    |  return_to_handler();
 3)    <idle>-0    |  d.s3.  0.000 us    |  _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore();
 3)    <idle>-0    |  d.s3.  0.000 us    |  return_to_handler();
 3)    <idle>-0    |  d.s3.  0.000 us    |  trace_hardirqs_on();

The "return_to_handle()" call is the trampoline of the
function graph tracer, and is meaningless in this context.

The file kernel/trace/ftrace.c references the mcount() call to
convert the mcount() callers to nops. But because it references
mcount(), the mcount() address is placed in the relocation table.

The C version of recordmcount reads the relocation table of all
object files, and it will add all references to mcount to the
__mcount_loc table that is used to find the places that call mcount()
and change the call to a nop. When recordmcount finds the mcount reference
in kernel/trace/ftrace.o, it saves that location even though the code
is not a call, but references mcount as data.

On boot up, when all calls are converted to nops, the code has a safety
check to determine what op code it is actually replacing before it
replaces it. If that op code at the address does not match, then
a warning is printed and the function tracer is disabled.

The reference to mcount in ftrace.c, causes this warning to trigger,
since the reference is not a call to mcount(). The ftrace.c file is
not compiled with the -pg flag, so no calls to mcount() should be
expected.

This patch simply makes recordmcount.c skip the kernel/trace/ftrace.c
file. This was the same solution used by the perl version of
recordmcount.

Merge branch 'perf/core' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/random-tracing into perf/core

The elf reader for recordmcount.c had duplicate functions for both
32 bit and 64 bit elf handling. This was due to the need of using
the 32 and 64 bit elf structures.

This patch consolidates the two by using macros to define the 32
and 64 bit names in a recordmcount.h file, and then by just defining
a RECORD_MCOUNT_64 macro and including recordmcount.h twice we

This patch adds the support for the C version of recordmcount and
compile times show ~ 12% improvement.

After verifying this works, other archs can add:

 HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD

in its Kconfig and it will use the C version of recordmcount
instead of the perl version.
