The overhead of HCALL_STATS is quite high and the functionality is very rarely used. Key statistics are also missing (eg min/max). With the new hcall tracepoints much more powerful tracing can be done in a kernel module. Lets disable this by default.

While most users of the hcall tracepoints will only want the opcode and return code, some will want all the arguments. To avoid the complexity of using varargs we pass a pointer to the register save area, which contains all the arguments.

Add hcall_entry and hcall_exit tracepoints. This replaces the inline assembly HCALL_STATS code and converts it to use the new tracepoints. To keep the disabled case as quick as possible, we embed a status word in the TOC so we can get at it with a single load. By doing so we keep the overhead at a minimum. Time taken for a null hcall: No tracepoint code: 135.79 cycles Disabled tracepoints: 137.95 cycles For reference, before this patch enabling HCALL_STATS resulted in a null hcall of 201.44 cycles!

We can monitor the effectiveness of our power management of both the kernel and hypervisor by probing the timer interrupt. For example, on this box we see 10.37s timer interrupts on an idle core: <idle>-0 [010] 3900.671297: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3900.671302: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3911.042963: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3911.042968: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3921.414630: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3921.414635: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 Since we have a 207MHz decrementer it will go negative and fire every 10.37s even if Linux is completely idle.

This adds powerpc-specific tracepoints for interrupt entry and exit. While we already have generic irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit tracepoints there are cases on our virtualised powerpc machines where an interrupt is presented to the OS, but subsequently handled by the hypervisor. This means no OS interrupt handler is invoked. Here is an example on a POWER6 machine with the patch below applied: <idle>-0 [006] 3243.949840744: irq_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce31fb10 <idle>-0 [006] 3243.949850520: irq_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce31fb10 <idle>-0 [007] 3243.950218208: irq_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce323b10 <idle>-0 [007] 3243.950224080: irq_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce323b10 <idle>-0 [000] 3244.021879320: irq_entry: pt_regs=c000000000a63aa0 <idle>-0 [000] 3244.021883616: irq_handler_entry: irq=87 handler=eth0 <idle>-0 [000] 3244.021887328: irq_handler_exit: irq=87 return=handled <idle>-0 [000] 3244.021897408: irq_exit: pt_regs=c000000000a63aa0 Here we see two phantom interrupts (no handler was invoked), followed by a real interrupt for eth0. Without the tracepoints in this patch we would have missed the phantom interrupts.

perf_event wants a separate event for alignment and emulation faults, so create another emulation event. This will make it easy to hook in perf_event at one spot.

Add two more software events that are common to many cpus. Alignment faults: When a load or store is not aligned properly. Emulation faults: When an instruction is emulated in software. Both cause a very significant slowdown (100x or worse), so identifying and fixing them is very important.

The Unit_Characteristics entry of an SBP-2 unit directory is not mandatory as far as I can tell. If it is missing, we would probably fail to log in into the target because firewire-sbp2 would not wait for status after it sent the login request. The fix moves the cleanup of tgt->mgt_orb_timeout into a place where it is executed exactly once before login, rather than 0..n times depending on the target's config ROM. With targets with one or more Unit_Characteristics entries, the result is the same as before. Signed-off-by: NStefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

When setting a channel attached tape online under Linux 2.6.31, the "vol_id" process from udev hangs in sync_page(): 2 sync_page+144 [0x1dfaac] 3 __wait_on_bit_lock+194 [0x58c23e] 4 __lock_page+116 [0x1df9dc] 5 truncate_inode_pages_range+728 [0x1ed7cc] 6 __blkdev_put+244 [0x25f738] 7 __fput+300 [0x229c4c] 8 filp_close+122 [0x225a3a] The reason for that is an error in the request queue handling. It can happen that we fetch a request, but do not process it further because the number of queued requests exceeds TAPEBLOCK_MIN_REQUEUE. To fix this, we should call blk_peek_request() instead of blk_fetch_request() in the while condition and fetch the request in the loop body afterwards.
