      perf: Dynamic pmu types · 2e80a82a
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Extend the perf_pmu_register() interface to allow for named and
      dynamic pmu types.
      
      Because we need to support the existing static types we cannot use
      dynamic types for everything, hence provide a type argument.
      
      If we want to enumerate the PMUs they need a name, provide one.

      irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks · e360adbe
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      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.

      within the IRQ getting badly confused.
      
      RESTORE_ALL used to play with disabling IRQ itself, but that got
      removed back in 2002, without making sure we had them disabled
      on all paths.  It's cheaper to make sure we have them disabled than
      to revert to original variant...

      alpha: deal with multiple simultaneously pending signals · 494486a1
      Al Viro 提交于
      Unlike the other targets, alpha sets _one_ sigframe and
      buggers off until the next syscall/interrupt, even if
      more signals are pending.  It leads to quite a few unpleasant
      inconsistencies, starting with SIGSEGV potentially arriving
      not where it should and including e.g. mess with sigsuspend();
      consider two pending signals blocked until sigsuspend()
      unblocks them.  We pick the first one; then, if we are hit
      by interrupt while in the handler, we process the second one
      as well.  If we are not, and if no syscalls had been made,
      we get out of the first handler and leave the second signal
      pending; normally sigreturn() would've picked it anyway, but
      here it starts with restoring the original mask and voila -
      the second signal is blocked again.  On everything else we
      get both delivered consistently.
      
      It's actually easy to fix; the only thing to watch out for
      is prevention of double syscall restart.  Fortunately, the
      idea I've nicked from arm fix by rmk works just fine...
      
      Testcase demonstrating the behaviour in question; on alpha
      we get one or both flags set (usually one), on everything
      else both are always set.
      	#include <signal.h>
      	#include <stdio.h>
      	int had1, had2;
      	void f1(int sig) { had1 = 1; }
      	void f2(int sig) { had2 = 1; }
      	main()
      	{
      		sigset_t set1, set2;
      		sigemptyset(&set1);
      		sigemptyset(&set2);
      		sigaddset(&set2, 1);
      		sigaddset(&set2, 2);
      		signal(1, f1);
      		signal(2, f2);
      		sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &set2, NULL);
      		raise(1);
      		raise(2);

      alpha: fix a 14 years old bug in sigreturn tracing · 53293638
      Al Viro 提交于
      The way sigreturn() is implemented on alpha breaks PTRACE_SYSCALL,
      all way back to 1.3.95 when alpha has grown PTRACE_SYSCALL support.
      
      What happens is direct return to ret_from_syscall, in order to bypass
      mangling of a3 (error indicator) and prevent other mutilations of
      registers (e.g. by syscall restart).  That's fine, but... the entire
      TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE codepath is kept separate on alpha and post-syscall
      stopping/notifying the tracer is after the syscall.  And the normal
      path we are forcibly switching to doesn't have it.
      
      So we end up with *one* stop in traced sigreturn() vs. two in other
      syscalls.  And yes, strace is visibly broken by that; try to strace
      the following
      	#include <signal.h>
      	#include <stdio.h>
      	void f(int sig) {}
      	main()
      	{
      		signal(SIGHUP, f);
      		raise(SIGHUP);
      		write(1, "eeeek\n", 6);
      	}
      and watch the show.  The
      	close(1)                                = 405
      in the end of strace output is coming from return value of write() (6 ==
      __NR_close on alpha) and syscall number of exit_group() (__NR_exit_group ==
      405 there).
      
      The fix is fairly simple - the only thing we end up missing is the call
      of syscall_trace() and we can tell whether we'd been called from the
      SYSCALL_TRACE path by checking ra value.  Since we are setting the
      switch_stack up (that's what sys_sigreturn() does), we have the right
      environment for calling syscall_trace() - just before we call
      undo_switch_stack() and return.  Since undo_switch_stack() will overwrite
      s0 anyway, we can use it to store the result of "has it been called from
      SYSCALL_TRACE path?" check.  The same thing applies in rt_sigreturn().

      alpha: unb0rk sigsuspend() and rt_sigsuspend() · 392fb6e3
      Al Viro 提交于
      Old code used to set regs->r0 and regs->r19 to force the right
      return value.  Leaving that after switch to ERESTARTNOHAND
      was a Bad Idea(tm), since now that screws the restart - if we
      hit the case when get_signal_to_deliver() returns 0, we will
      step back to syscall insn, with v0 set to EINTR and a3 to 1.
      The latter won't matter, since EINTR is 4, aka __NR_write.
      
      Testcase:
      
      	#include <signal.h>
      	#define _GNU_SOURCE
      	#include <unistd.h>
      	#include <sys/syscall.h>
      
      	main()
      	{
      		sigset_t mask;
      		sigemptyset(&mask);
      		sigaddset(&mask, SIGCONT);
      		sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &mask, NULL);
      		kill(0, SIGCONT);
      		syscall(__NR_sigsuspend, 1, "b0rken\n", 7);
      	}
      
      results on alpha in immediate message to stdout...
      
      Fix is obvious; moreover, since we don't need regs anymore, we can
      switch to normal prototypes for these guys and lose the wrappers.
      Even better, rt_sigsuspend() is identical to generic version in
      kernel/signal.c now.

      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

      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer · d7627467
      David Howells 提交于
      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.

      alpha: add performance monitor interrupt counter · 65d92064
      Michael Cree 提交于
      The following patches implement hardware performance events for the Alpha
      EV67 and later CPUs.  I have had this running on a Compaq XP1000 (EV67,
      single CPU) for a few days now.  Pretty cool -- discovered that the glibc
      exp2() library routine uses on average 985 cycles to execute 777 CPU
      instructions whereas Compaq's CPML library version of exp2() uses on
      average 32 cycles to execute 47 CPU instructions to achieve the same
      thing!
      
      This patch:
      
      Add performance monitor interrupt counternd and export the count to user
      space via /proc/interrupts.

      pass a struct path to vfs_statfs · ebabe9a9
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      We'll need the path to implement the flags field for statvfs support.
      We do have it available in all callers except:
      
       - ecryptfs_statfs.  This one doesn't actually need vfs_statfs but just
         needs to do a caller to the lower filesystem statfs method.
       - sys_ustat.  Add a non-exported statfs_by_dentry helper for it which
         doesn't won't be able to fill out the flags field later on.
      
      In addition rename the helpers for statfs vs fstatfs to do_*statfs instead
      of the misleading vfs prefix.
