      x86, mrst: Add Kconfig dependencies for Moorestown · 4b2f3f7d
      Jacob Pan 提交于
      The Moorestown platform requires IOAPIC for all interrupts from the
      south complex, since there is no legacy PIC.
      
      Furthermore, Moorestown I/O requires PCI.  Moorestown PCI depends on PCI MMCONFIG
      and DIRECT method to perform device enumeration, as there is no PCI BIOS.

      x86, numaq: Make CONFIG_X86_NUMAQ depend on CONFIG_PCI · a92d152e
      Pan, Jacob jun 提交于
      The NUMAQ initialization sets x86_init.pci.init to pci_numaq_init,
      which obviously isn't defined if CONFIG_PCI isn't defined.  This
      dependency was implicit in the past, because pci_numaq_init was
      invoked from arch/x86/pci/legacy.c, which itself was conditioned on
      CONFIG_PCI.
      
      I suspect that no NUMA-Q machines without PCI were ever built, so
      instead of complicating the code by adding #ifdefs or stub functions,
      just disable this bit of the configuration space.

      kprobes/x86: Support kprobes jump optimization on x86 · c0f7ac3a
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Introduce x86 arch-specific optimization code, which supports
      both of x86-32 and x86-64.
      
      This code also supports safety checking, which decodes whole of
      a function in which probe is inserted, and checks following
      conditions before optimization:
       - The optimized instructions which will be replaced by a jump instruction
         don't straddle the function boundary.
       - There is no indirect jump instruction, because it will jumps into
         the address range which is replaced by jump operand.
       - There is no jump/loop instruction which jumps into the address range
         which is replaced by jump operand.
       - Don't optimize kprobes if it is in functions into which fixup code will
         jumps.
      
      This uses text_poke_multibyte() which doesn't support modifying
      code on NMI/MCE handler. However, since kprobes itself doesn't
      support NMI/MCE code probing, it's not a problem.
      
      Changes in v9:
       - Use *_text_reserved() for checking the probe can be optimized.
       - Verify jump address range is in 2G range when preparing slot.
       - Backup original code when switching optimized buffer, instead of
         preparing buffer, because there can be int3 of other probes in
         preparing phase.
       - Check kprobe is disabled in arch_check_optimized_kprobe().
       - Strictly check indirect jump opcodes (ff /4, ff /5).
      
      Changes in v6:
       - Split stop_machine-based jump patching code.
       - Update comments and coding style.
      
      Changes in v5:
       - Introduce stop_machine-based jump replacing.

      hw-breakpoints: Fix hardware breakpoints -> perf events dependency · 99e8c5a3
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      The kbuild's select command doesn't propagate through the config
      dependencies.
      
      Hence the current rules of hardware breakpoint's config can't
      ensure perf can never be disabled under us.
      
      We have:
      
      config X86
      	selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS
      
      config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS
      	select PERF_EVENTS
      
      config PERF_EVENTS
      	[...]
      
      x86 will select the breakpoints but that won't propagate to perf
      events. The user can still disable the latter, but it is
      necessary for the breakpoints.
      
      What we need is:
      
       - x86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS and PERF_EVENTS
       - HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS depends on PERF_EVENTS
      
      so that we ensure PERF_EVENTS is enabled and frozen for x86.
      
      This fixes the following kind of build errors:

      perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events · cdd6c482
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!
      
      In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
      initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
      becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
      monitoring, analysis facility.
      
      Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
      'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
      code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
      less appropriate.
      
      All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
      events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
      and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)
      
      The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
      it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.
      
      Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
      suggested a rename.
      
      User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
      should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
      keep the size down.)
      
      This patch has been generated via the following script:
      
        FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')
      
        sed -i \
          -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
          -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
          -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
          -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
          -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
          -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
          $FILES
      
        for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
          M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
          mv $N $M
        done
      
        FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)
      
        sed -i \
          -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
          -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
          -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
          -e 's/counter/event/g' \
          -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
          $FILES
      
      ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
      used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
      a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
      change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
      is the smallest: the end of the merge window.
      
      Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
      stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.
      
      ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
        with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
        over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
        in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
        better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
        instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

      x86,percpu: use embedding for 64bit NUMA and page for 32bit NUMA · 4518e6a0
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Embedding percpu first chunk allocator can now handle very sparse unit
      mapping.  Use embedding allocator instead of lpage for 64bit NUMA.
      This removes extra TLB pressure and the need to do complex and fragile
      dancing when changing page attributes.
      
      For 32bit, using very sparse unit mapping isn't a good idea because
      the vmalloc space is very constrained.  32bit NUMA machines aren't
      exactly the focus of optimization and it isn't very clear whether
      lpage performs better than page.  Use page first chunk allocator for
      32bit NUMAs.
      
      As this leaves setup_pcpu_*() functions pretty much empty, fold them
      into setup_per_cpu_areas().

      perf_counter, x86: Fix/improve apic fallback · 04da8a43
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Johannes Stezenbach reported that his Pentium-M based
      laptop does not have the local APIC enabled by default,
      and hence perfcounters do not get initialized.
      
      Add a fallback for this case: allow non-sampled counters
      and return with an error on sampled counters. This allows
      'perf stat' to work out of box - and allows 'perf top'
      and 'perf record' to fall back on a hrtimer based sampling
      method.
      
      ( Passing 'lapic' on the boot line will allow hardware
        sampling to occur - but if the APIC is disabled
        permanently by the hardware then this fallback still
        allows more systems to use perfcounters. )
      
      Also decouple perfcounter support from X86_LOCAL_APIC.
