      x86, perf, bts, mm: Delete the never used BTS-ptrace code · faa4602e
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Support for the PMU's BTS features has been upstreamed in
      v2.6.32, but we still have the old and disabled ptrace-BTS,
      as Linus noticed it not so long ago.
      
      It's buggy: TIF_DEBUGCTLMSR is trampling all over that MSR without
      regard for other uses (perf) and doesn't provide the flexibility
      needed for perf either.
      
      Its users are ptrace-block-step and ptrace-bts, since ptrace-bts
      was never used and ptrace-block-step can be implemented using a
      much simpler approach.
      
      So axe all 3000 lines of it. That includes the *locked_memory*()
      APIs in mm/mlock.c as well.

      perf: Fix unexported generic perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs · dcd5c166
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() is exported for the overriden x86
      version, but not for the generic weak version.
      
      As a general rule, weak functions should not have their symbol
      exported in the same file they are defined.
      
      So let's export it on trace_event_perf.c as it is used by trace
      events only.
      
      This fixes:
      
      	ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [fs/xfs/xfs.ko] undefined!
      	ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/spufs.ko] undefined!
      
      -v2: And also only build it if trace events are enabled.
      -v3: Fix changelog mistake
