      perf: Add attribute to filter out callchains · d0775264
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Introducing following bits to the the perf_event_attr struct:
      
        - exclude_callchain_kernel to filter out kernel callchain
          from the sample dump
      
        - exclude_callchain_user to filter out user callchain
          from the sample dump
      
      We need to be able to disable standard user callchain dump when we use
      the dwarf cfi callchain mode, because frame pointer based user
      callchains are useless in this mode.
      
      Implementing also exclude_callchain_kernel to have complete set of
      options.

      Introducing PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER sample type bit to trigger the dump
      of the user level stack on sample. The size of the dump is specified by
      sample_stack_user value.
      
      Being able to dump parts of the user stack, starting from the stack
      pointer, will be useful to make a post mortem dwarf CFI based stack
      unwinding.
      
      Added HAVE_PERF_USER_STACK_DUMP config option to determine if the
      architecture provides user stack dump on perf event samples.  This needs
      access to the user stack pointer which is not unified across
      architectures. Enabling this for x86 architecture.

      perf: Add perf_output_skip function to skip bytes in sample · 5685e0ff
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      Introducing perf_output_skip function to be able to skip data within the
      perf ring buffer.
      
      When writing data into perf ring buffer we first reserve needed place in
      ring buffer and then copy the actual data.
      
      There's a possibility we won't be able to fill all the reserved size
      with data, so we need a way to skip the remaining bytes.
      
      This is going to be useful when storing the user stack dump, where we
      might end up with less data than we originally requested.

      mm: allow PF_MEMALLOC from softirq context · 907aed48
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      This is needed to allow network softirq packet processing to make use of
      PF_MEMALLOC.
      
      Currently softirq context cannot use PF_MEMALLOC due to it not being
      associated with a task, and therefore not having task flags to fiddle with
      - thus the gfp to alloc flag mapping ignores the task flags when in
      interrupts (hard or soft) context.
      
      Allowing softirqs to make use of PF_MEMALLOC therefore requires some
      trickery.  This patch borrows the task flags from whatever process happens
      to be preempted by the softirq.  It then modifies the gfp to alloc flags
      mapping to not exclude task flags in softirq context, and modify the
      softirq code to save, clear and restore the PF_MEMALLOC flag.
      
      The save and clear, ensures the preempted task's PF_MEMALLOC flag doesn't
      leak into the softirq.  The restore ensures a softirq's PF_MEMALLOC flag
      cannot leak back into the preempted process.  This should be safe due to
      the following reasons
      
      Softirqs can run on multiple CPUs sure but the same task should not be
      	executing the same softirq code. Neither should the softirq
      	handler be preempted by any other softirq handler so the flags
      	should not leak to an unrelated softirq.
      
      Softirqs re-enable hardware interrupts in __do_softirq() so can be
      	preempted by hardware interrupts so PF_MEMALLOC is inherited
      	by the hard IRQ. However, this is similar to a process in
      	reclaim being preempted by a hardirq. While PF_MEMALLOC is
      	set, gfp_to_alloc_flags() distinguishes between hard and
      	soft irqs and avoids giving a hardirq the ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS
      	flag.
      
      If the softirq is deferred to ksoftirq then its flags may be used
              instead of a normal tasks but as the softirq cannot be preempted,
              the PF_MEMALLOC flag does not leak to other code by accident.

      mm/hotplug: correctly setup fallback zonelists when creating new pgdat · 9adb62a5
      Jiang Liu 提交于
      When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called to create new pgdat for a new node, a
      fallback zonelist should be created for the new node.  There's code to try
      to achieve that in hotadd_new_pgdat() as below:
      
      	/*
      	 * The node we allocated has no zone fallback lists. For avoiding
      	 * to access not-initialized zonelist, build here.
      	 */
      	mutex_lock(&zonelists_mutex);
      	build_all_zonelists(pgdat, NULL);
      	mutex_unlock(&zonelists_mutex);
      
      But it doesn't work as expected.  When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called, the
      new node is still in offline state because node_set_online(nid) hasn't
      been called yet.  And build_all_zonelists() only builds zonelists for
      online nodes as:
      
              for_each_online_node(nid) {
                      pg_data_t *pgdat = NODE_DATA(nid);
      
                      build_zonelists(pgdat);
                      build_zonelist_cache(pgdat);
              }
      
      Though we hope to create zonelist for the new pgdat, but it doesn't.  So
      add a new parameter "pgdat" the build_all_zonelists() to build pgdat for
      the new pgdat too.
