      perf_counter: Fix/complete ftrace event records sampling · f413cdb8
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      This patch implements the kernel side support for ftrace event
      record sampling.
      
      A new counter sampling attribute is added:
      
         PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD
      
      which requests ftrace events record sampling. In this case
      if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint
      fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the
      perfcounter event buffer, as a sample.
      
      Result, after setting PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD attribute from perf
      record:
      
       perf record -f -F 1 -a -e workqueue:workqueue_execution
       perf report -D
      
       0x21e18 [0x48]: event: 9
       .
       . ... raw event: size 72 bytes

      .
      0x21e18 [0x48]: PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE (IP, 1): 10: 0xffffffff8100c7d0 period: 33
      
      The raw ftrace binary record starts at offset 0020.
      
      Translation:
      
       struct trace_entry {
      	type		= 0x2b = 43;
      	flags		= 1;
      	preempt_count	= 2;
      	pid		= 0xa = 10;
      	tgid		= 0xa = 10;
       }
      
       thread_comm = "events/1"
       thread_pid  = 0xa = 10;
       func	    = 0xffffffff8131b1e0 = flush_to_ldisc()
      
      What will come next?
      
       - Userspace support ('perf trace'), 'flight data recorder' mode
         for perf trace, etc.
      
       - The unconditional copy from the profiling callback brings
         some costs however if someone wants no such sampling to
         occur, and needs to be fixed in the future. For that we need
         to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute.
         This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event.
      
       - Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record
         a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in
         the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity.
         That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity
         protection.
      
       - [...]
      
       - Profit! :-)

      perf_counter, ftrace: Fix perf_counter integration · 3a659305
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Adds possible second part to the assign argument of TP_EVENT().
      
        TP_perf_assign(
      	__perf_count(foo);
      	__perf_addr(bar);
        )
      
      Which, when specified make the swcounter increment with @foo instead
      of the usual 1, and report @bar for PERF_SAMPLE_ADDR (data address
      associated with the event) when this triggers a counter overflow.

      KVM: Avoid redelivery of edge interrupt before next edge · b4a2f5e7
      Gleb Natapov 提交于
      The check for an edge is broken in current ioapic code. ioapic->irr is
      cleared on each edge interrupt by ioapic_service() and this makes
      old_irr != ioapic->irr condition in kvm_ioapic_set_irq() to be always
      true. The patch fixes the code to properly recognise edge.
      
      Some HW emulation calls set_irq() without level change. If each such
      call is propagated to an OS it may confuse a device driver. This is the
      case with keyboard device emulation and Windows XP x64  installer on SMP VM.
      Each keystroke produce two interrupts (down/up) one interrupt is
      submitted to CPU0 and another to CPU1. This confuses Windows somehow
      and it ignores keystrokes.

      Some applications/hardware combinations are triggering the message "failed to
      acquire vblank counter" to be issued up to 20 times a second, which makes it
      both useless and dangerous, as this may hide other important messages.
      This changes makes it only appear when people are debugging.

      drm: When adding probed modes, preserve duplicate mode types · 38d5487d
      Keith Packard 提交于
      The code which takes probed modes and adds them to a connector eliminates
      duplicate modes by comparing them using drm_mode_equal. That function
      doesn't consider the type bits, which means that any modes which differ only
      in the type field will be lost.
      
      One of the bits in the mode->type field is the DRM_MODE_TYPE_PREFERRED bit.
      If the mode with that bit is lost, then higher level code will not know
      which mode to select, causing a random mode to be used instead.
      
      This patch simply merges the two mode type bits together; that seems
      reasonable to me, but perhaps only a subset of the bits should be used? None
      of these can be user defined as they all come from looking at just the
      hardware.

      When the process exits we don't have to run new cputimer nor
      use running one (as it not accounts when tsk->exit_state != 0)
      to get process CPU times.  As there is only one thread we can
      just use CPU times fields from task and signal structs.
