      tracing: Do not return EINVAL in snapshot when not allocated · c9960e48
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      To use the tracing snapshot feature, writing a '1' into the snapshot
      file causes the snapshot buffer to be allocated if it has not already
      been allocated and dose a 'swap' with the main buffer, so that the
      snapshot now contains what was in the main buffer, and the main buffer
      now writes to what was the snapshot buffer.
      
      To free the snapshot buffer, a '0' is written into the snapshot file.
      
      To clear the snapshot buffer, any number but a '0' or '1' is written
      into the snapshot file. But if the file is not allocated it returns
      -EINVAL error code. This is rather pointless. It is better just to
      do nothing and return success.

      tracing: Add help of snapshot feature when snapshot is empty · d8741e2e
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      When cat'ing the snapshot file, instead of showing an empty trace
      header like the trace file does, show how to use the snapshot
      feature.
      
      Also, this is a good place to show if the snapshot has been allocated
      or not. Users may want to "pre allocate" the snapshot to have a fast
      "swap" of the current buffer. Otherwise, a swap would be slow and might
      fail as it would need to allocate the snapshot buffer, and that might
      fail under tight memory constraints.
      
      Here's what it looked like before:
      
       # tracer: nop
       #
       # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 0/0   #P:4
       #
       #                              _-----=> irqs-off
       #                             / _----=> need-resched
       #                            | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
       #                            || / _--=> preempt-depth
       #                            ||| /     delay
       #           TASK-PID   CPU#  ||||    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
       #              | |       |   ||||       |         |
      
      Here's what it looks like now:
      
       # tracer: nop
       #
       #
       # * Snapshot is freed *
       #
       # Snapshot commands:
       # echo 0 > snapshot : Clears and frees snapshot buffer
       # echo 1 > snapshot : Allocates snapshot buffer, if not already allocated.
       #                      Takes a snapshot of the main buffer.
       # echo 2 > snapshot : Clears snapshot buffer (but does not allocate)
       #                      (Doesn't have to be '2' works with any number that
       #                       is not a '0' or '1')

      perf/x86: Add Intel IvyBridge event scheduling constraints · 69943182
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      Intel IvyBridge processor has different constraints compared
      to SandyBridge. Therefore it needs its own contraint table.
      This patch adds the constraint table.
      
      Without this patch, the events listed in the patch may not be
      scheduled correctly and bogus counts may be collected.

      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
       "A lot of reorganization is going on mostly to prepare for worker pools
        with custom attributes so that workqueue can replace custom pool
        implementations in places including writeback and btrfs and make CPU
        assignment in crypto more flexible.
      
        workqueue evolved from purely per-cpu design and implementation, so
        there are a lot of assumptions regarding being bound to CPUs and even
        unbound workqueues are implemented as an extension of the model -
        workqueues running on the special unbound CPU.  Bulk of changes this
        round are about promoting worker_pools as the top level abstraction
        replacing global_cwq (global cpu workqueue).  At this point, I'm
        fairly confident about getting custom worker pools working pretty soon
        and ready for the next merge window.
      
        Lai's patches are replacing the convoluted mb() dancing workqueue has
        been doing with much simpler mechanism which only depends on
        assignment atomicity of long.  For details, please read the commit
        message of 0b3dae68 ("workqueue: simplify is-work-item-queued-here
        test").  While the change ends up adding one pointer to struct
        delayed_work, the inflation in percentage is less than five percent
        and it decouples delayed_work logic a lot more cleaner from usual work
        handling, removes the unusual memory barrier dancing, and allows for
        further simplification, so I think the trade-off is acceptable.
      
        There will be two more workqueue related pull requests and there are
        some shared commits among them.  I'll write further pull requests
        assuming this pull request is pulled first."

      Pull workqueue [delayed_]work_pending() cleanups from Tejun Heo:
       "This is part of on-going cleanups to remove / minimize usages of
        workqueue interfaces which are deprecated and/or misleading.
      
        This round drops a number of usages of [delayed_]work_pending(), which
        are dangerous as they lack any form of synchronization and thus often
        lead to buggy / unnecessary code.  There are a couple legitimate use
        cases in kernel.  Hopefully, they can be converted and
        [delayed_]work_pending() can be removed completely.  Even if not,
        removing most of misuses should make it more difficult to find
        examples of misuses and thus slow down growth of them.
