This fixes three issues noticed by Arnd Bergmann: - Add #ifdef __KERNEL__ and move some things around in perf_counter.h to make sure only the bits that userspace needs are exported to userspace. - Use __u64, __s64, __u32 types in the structs exported to userspace rather than u64, s64, u32. - Make the sys_perf_counter_open syscall available to the SPUs on Cell platforms. And one issue that I noticed in looking at the code again: - Wrap the perf_counter_open syscall with SYSCALL_DEFINE4 so we get the proper handling of int arguments on ppc64 (and some other 64-bit architectures).

This fixes a race where a thread acquires the console while the console is suspended, and the console is resumed before this thread releases it. In this case, the secondary console semaphore would be left locked, and the primary semaphore would be released twice. This in turn would cause the console switch on suspend or resume to hang forever. Note that suspend_console does not actually lock the console for clients that use acquire_console_sem, it only locks it for clients that use try_acquire_console_sem. If we change suspend_console to fully lock the console, then the kernel may deadlock on suspend. One client of try_acquire_console_sem is acquire_console_semaphore_for_printk, which uses it to prevent printk from using the console while it is suspended.

Impact: fix to prevent hard lockup on self tests If one of the tracers are broken and is constantly filling the ring buffer while the test of the ring buffer is running, it will hang the box. The reason is that the test is a consumer that will not stop till the ring buffer is empty. But if the tracer is broken and is constantly producing input to the buffer, this test will never end. The result is a lockup of the box. This happened when KALLSYMS was not defined and the dynamic ftrace test constantly filled the ring buffer, because the filter failed and all functions were being traced. Something was being called that constantly filled the buffer. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

When the function graph tracer is activated, it iterates over the task_list to allocate a stack to store the return addresses.

Impact: cosmetic change in Kconfig menu layout This patch was originally suggested by Peter Zijlstra, but seems it was forgotten. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE and CONFIG_MMIOTRACE_TEST were selectable directly under the Kernel hacking / debugging menu in the kernel configuration system. They were present only for x86 and x86_64. Other tracers that use the ftrace tracing framework are in their own sub-menu. This patch moves the mmiotrace configuration options there. Since the Kconfig file, where the tracer menu is, is not architecture specific, HAVE_MMIOTRACE_SUPPORT is introduced and provided only by x86/x86_64. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE now depends on it.

While reviewing the manpages, I noticed I'd missed some clock vs timer sites. Make sure that all timer functions call cpu_timer_sample_group() and not cpu_clock_sample_group(). This ensures that we enable the process wide timer in time, and therefore pay the O(n) thread group cost from the syscall. Not doing it here, will result in the first jiffy tick after setting the timer doing this, resulting in a very expensive tick (but only once) and a delay in actually starting the timer.

Jaswinder Singh Rajput reported that commit 23a185ca caused the context switch and migration software counters to report zero always. With that commit, the software counters only count events that occur between sched-in and sched-out for a task. This is necessary for the counter enable/disable prctls and ioctls to work. However, the context switch and migration counts are incremented after sched-out for one task and before sched-in for the next. Since the increment doesn't occur while a task is scheduled in (as far as the software counters are concerned) it doesn't count towards any counter. Thus the context switch and migration counters need to count events that occur at any time, provided the counter is enabled, not just those that occur while the task is scheduled in (from the perf_counter subsystem's point of view). The problem though is that the software counter code can't tell the difference between being enabled and being scheduled in, and between being disabled and being scheduled out, since we use the one pair of enable/disable entry points for both. That is, the high-level disable operation simply arranges for the counter to not be scheduled in any more, and the high-level enable operation arranges for it to be scheduled in again. One way to solve this would be to have sched_in/out operations in the hw_perf_counter_ops struct as well as enable/disable. However, this takes a simpler approach: it adds a 'prev_state' field to the perf_counter struct that allows a counter's enable method to know whether the counter was previously disabled or just inactive (scheduled out), and therefore whether the enable method is being called as a result of a high-level enable or a schedule-in operation. This then allows the context switch, migration and page fault counters to reset their hw.prev_count value in their enable functions only if they are called as a result of a high-level enable operation. Although page faults would normally only occur while the counter is scheduled in, this changes the page fault counter code too in case there are ever circumstances where page faults get counted against a task while its counters are not scheduled in.

Impact: new perf_counter feature This extends the perf_counter_hw_event struct with bits that specify that events in user, kernel and/or hypervisor mode should not be counted (i.e. should be excluded), and adds code to program the PMU mode selection bits accordingly on x86 and powerpc. For software counters, we don't currently have the infrastructure to distinguish which mode an event occurs in, so we currently fail the counter initialization if the setting of the hw_event.exclude_* bits would require us to distinguish. Context switches and CPU migrations are currently considered to occur in kernel mode. On x86, this changes the previous policy that only root can count kernel events. Now non-root users can count kernel events or exclude them. Non-root users still can't use NMI events, though. On x86 we don't appear to have any way to control whether hypervisor events are counted or not, so hw_event.exclude_hv is ignored. On powerpc, the selection of whether to count events in user, kernel and/or hypervisor mode is PMU-wide, not per-counter, so this adds a check that the hw_event.exclude_* settings are the same as other events on the PMU. Counters being added to a group have to have the same settings as the other hardware counters in the group. Counters and groups can only be enabled in hw_perf_group_sched_in or power_perf_enable if they have the same settings as any other counters already on the PMU. If we are not running on a hypervisor, the exclude_hv setting is ignored (by forcing it to 0) since we can't ever get any hypervisor events. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Impact: kernel crash fix Yanmin Zhang reported that using a PERF_COUNT_TASK_CLOCK software counter as a per-cpu counter would reliably crash the system, because it calls __task_delta_exec with a null pointer. The page fault, context switch and cpu migration counters also won't function correctly as per-cpu counters since they reference the current task. This fixes the problem by redirecting the task_clock counter to the cpu_clock counter when used as a per-cpu counter, and by implementing per-cpu page fault, context switch and cpu migration counters. Along the way, this: - Initializes counter->ctx earlier, in perf_counter_alloc, so that sw_perf_counter_init can use it - Adds code to kernel/sched.c to count task migrations into each cpu, in rq->nr_migrations_in - Exports the per-cpu context switch and task migration counts via new functions added to kernel/sched.c - Makes sure that if sw_perf_counter_init fails, we don't try to initialize the counter as a hardware counter. Since the user has passed a negative, non-raw event type, they clearly don't intend for it to be interpreted as a hardware event.

async_schedule() should pass in async_running as the running list, and run_one_entry() should put the entry to be run on the provided running list instead of always on the generic one.

I happened to forked lots of processes, and hit NULL pointer dereference. It is because in copy_process() after checking max_threads, 0 is returned but not -EAGAIN. The bug is introduced by "CRED: Detach the credentials from task_struct" (commit f1752eec).
