9644302e33 ftrace: Speed up search by skipping pages by address
As all records in a page of the ftrace table are sorted, we can
speed up the search algorithm by checking if the address to look for
falls in between the first and last record ip on the page.

This speeds up both the ftrace_location() and ftrace_text_reserved()
algorithms, as it can skip full pages when the search address is
not in them.

706c81f87f ftrace: Remove extra helper functions
The ftrace_record_ip() and ftrace_alloc_dyn_node() were from the
time of the ftrace daemon. Although they were still used, they
still make things a bit more complex than necessary.

Move the code into the one function that uses it, and remove the
helper functions.

9fd49328fc ftrace: Sort all function addresses, not just per page
Instead of just sorting the ip's of the functions per ftrace page,
sort the entire list before adding them to the ftrace pages.

This will allow the bsearch algorithm to be sped up as it can
also sort by pages, not just records within a page.

71babb2705 tracing: change CPU ring buffer state from tracing_cpumask
According to Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt:

tracing_cpumask:

        This is a mask that lets the user only trace
        on specified CPUS. The format is a hex string
        representing the CPUS.

The tracing_cpumask currently doesn't affect the tracing state of
per-CPU ring buffers.

This patch enables/disables CPU recording as its corresponding bit in
tracing_cpumask is set/unset.

308f7eeb78 ring-buffer: Reset head page before running self test
When the ring buffer does its consistency test on itself, it
removes the head page, runs the tests, and then adds it back
to what the "head_page" pointer was. But because the head_page
pointer may lack behind the real head page (held by the link
list pointer). The reset may be incorrect.

Instead, if the head_page exists (it does not on first allocation)
reset it back to the real head page before running the consistency
tests. Then it will be put back to its original location after
the tests are complete.

659f451ff2 ring-buffer: Add integrity check at end of iter read
There use to be ring buffer integrity checks after updating the
size of the ring buffer. But now that the ring buffer can modify
the size while the system is running, the integrity checks were
removed, as they require the ring buffer to be disabed to perform
the check.

Move the integrity check to the reading of the ring buffer via the
iterator reads (the "trace" file). As reading via an iterator requires
disabling the ring buffer, it is a perfect place to have it.

If the ring buffer happens to be disabled when updating the size,
we still perform the integrity check.

5040b4b7bc ring-buffer: Make addition of pages in ring buffer atomic
This patch adds the capability to add new pages to a ring buffer
atomically while write operations are going on. This makes it possible
to expand the ring buffer size without reinitializing the ring buffer.

The new pages are attached between the head page and its previous page.

83f40318da ring-buffer: Make removal of ring buffer pages atomic
This patch adds the capability to remove pages from a ring buffer
without destroying any existing data in it.

This is done by removing the pages after the tail page. This makes sure
that first all the empty pages in the ring buffer are removed. If the
head page is one in the list of pages to be removed, then the page after
the removed ones is made the head page. This removes the oldest data
from the ring buffer and keeps the latest data around to be read.

To do this in a non-racey manner, tracing is stopped for a very short
time while the pages to be removed are identified and unlinked from the
ring buffer. The pages are freed after the tracing is restarted to
minimize the time needed to stop tracing.

The context in which the pages from the per-cpu ring buffer are removed
runs on the respective CPU. This minimizes the events not traced to only
NMI trace contexts.

6edb2a8a38 tracing: Clean up tracing_mark_write()
On gcc 4.5 the function tracing_mark_write() would give a warning
of page2 being uninitialized. This is due to a bug in gcc because
the logic prevents page2 from being used uninitialized, and
gcc 4.6+ does not complain (correctly).

Instead of adding a "unitialized" around page2, which could show
a bug later on, I combined page1 and page2 into an array map_pages[].
This binds the two and the two are modified according to nr_pages
(what gcc 4.5 seems to ignore). This no longer gives a warning with
gcc 4.5 nor with gcc 4.6.

4d82a1debb lockdep: fix oops in processing workqueue
Under memory load, on x86_64, with lockdep enabled, the workqueue's
process_one_work() has been seen to oops in __lock_acquire(), barfing
on a 0xffffffff00000000 pointer in the lockdep_map's class_cache[].

Because it's permissible to free a work_struct from its callout function,
the map used is an onstack copy of the map given in the work_struct: and
that copy is made without any locking.

Surprisingly, gcc (4.5.1 in Hugh's case) uses "rep movsl" rather than
"rep movsq" for that structure copy: which might race with a workqueue
user's wait_on_work() doing lock_map_acquire() on the source of the
copy, putting a pointer into the class_cache[], but only in time for
the top half of that pointer to be copied to the destination map.

Boom when process_one_work() subsequently does lock_map_acquire()
on its onstack copy of the lockdep_map.

Fix this, and a similar instance in call_timer_fn(), with a
lockdep_copy_map() function which additionally NULLs the class_cache[].

Note: this oops was actually seen on 3.4-next, where flush_work() newly
does the racing lock_map_acquire(); but Tejun points out that 3.4 and
earlier are already vulnerable to the same through wait_on_work().

* Patch orginally from Peter.  Hugh modified it a bit and wrote the
  description.

544ecf310f workqueue: skip nr_running sanity check in worker_enter_idle() if trustee is active
worker_enter_idle() has WARN_ON_ONCE() which triggers if nr_running
isn't zero when every worker is idle.  This can trigger spuriously
while a cpu is going down due to the way trustee sets %WORKER_ROGUE
and zaps nr_running.

It first sets %WORKER_ROGUE on all workers without updating
nr_running, releases gcwq->lock, schedules, regrabs gcwq->lock and
then zaps nr_running.  If the last running worker enters idle
inbetween, it would see stale nr_running which hasn't been zapped yet
and trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE().

Fix it by performing the sanity check iff the trustee is idle.

c313af145b printk() - isolate KERN_CONT users from ordinary complete lines
Arrange the continuation printk() buffering to be fully separated from the
ordinary full line users.

Limit the exposure to races and wrong printk() line merges to users of
continuation only. Ordinary full line users racing against continuation
users will no longer affect each other.

Multiple continuation users from different threads, racing against each
other will not wrongly be merged into a single line, but printed as
separate lines.

Test output of a kernel module which starts two separate threads which
race against each other, one of them printing a single full terminated
line:
  printk("(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)\n");

The other one printing the line, every character separate in a
continuation loop:
  printk("(C");
  for (i = 0; i < 58; i++)
          printk(KERN_CONT "C");
  printk(KERN_CONT "C)\n");

Behavior of single and non-thread-aware printk() buffer:
  # modprobe printk-race
  printk test init
  (CC(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)
  C(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)
  CC(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)

13e099d2f7 sched/debug: Fix printing large integers on 32-bit platforms
Some numbers like nr_running and nr_uninterruptible are fundamentally
unsigned since its impossible to have a negative amount of tasks, yet
we still print them as signed to easily recognise the underflow
condition.

rq->nr_uninterruptible has 'special' accounting and can in fact very
easily become negative on a per-cpu basis.

It was noted that since the P() macro assumes things are long long and
the promotion of unsigned 'int/long' to long long on 32bit doesn't
sign extend we print silly large numbers instead of the easier to read
signed numbers.

Therefore extend the P() macro to not require the sign extention.

e44bc5c5d0 sched/fair: Improve the ->group_imb logic
Group imbalance is meant to deal with situations where affinity masks
and sched domains don't align well, such as 3 cpus from one group and
6 from another. In this case the domain based balancer will want to
put an equal amount of tasks on each side even though they don't have
equal cpus.

Currently group_imb is set whenever two cpus of a group have a weight
difference of at least one avg task and the heaviest cpu has at least
two tasks. A group with imbalance set will always be picked as busiest
and a balance pass will be forced.

The problem is that even if there are no affinity masks this stuff can
trigger and cause weird balancing decisions, eg. the observed
behaviour was that of 6 cpus, 5 had 2 and 1 had 3 tasks, due to the
difference of 1 avg load (they all had the same weight) and nr_running
being >1 the group_imbalance logic triggered and did the weird thing
of pulling more load instead of trying to move the 1 excess task to
the other domain of 6 cpus that had 5 cpu with 2 tasks and 1 cpu with
1 task.

Curb the group_imbalance stuff by making the nr_running condition
weaker by also tracking the min_nr_running and using the difference in
nr_running over the set instead of the absolute max nr_running.

556061b00c sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load[] calculations
While investigating why the load-balancer did funny I found that the
rq->cpu_load[] tables were completely screwy.. a bit more digging
revealed that the updates that got through were missing ticks followed
by a catchup of 2 ticks.

The catchup assumes the cpu was idle during that time (since only nohz
can cause missed ticks and the machine is idle etc..) this means that
esp. the higher indices were significantly lower than they ought to
be.

The reason for this is that its not correct to compare against jiffies
on every jiffy on any other cpu than the cpu that updates jiffies.

This patch cludges around it by only doing the catch-up stuff from
nohz_idle_balance() and doing the regular stuff unconditionally from
the tick.

04f733b4af sched/fair: Revert sched-domain iteration breakage
Patches c22402a2f ("sched/fair: Let minimally loaded cpu balance the
group") and 0ce90475 ("sched/fair: Add some serialization to the
sched_domain load-balance walk") are horribly broken so revert them.

The problem is that while it sounds good to have the minimally loaded
cpu do the pulling of more load, the way we walk the domains there is
absolutely no guarantee this cpu will actually get to the domain. In
fact its very likely it wont. Therefore the higher up the tree we get,
the less likely it is we'll balance at all.

The first of mask always walks up, while sucky in that it accumulates
load on the first cpu and needs extra passes to spread it out at least
guarantees a cpu gets up that far and load-balancing happens at all.

Since its now always the first and idle cpus should always be able to
balance so they get a task as fast as possible we can also do away
with the added serialization.

Pull the v3.5 RCU tree from Paul E. McKenney:

 1)	A set of improvements and fixes to the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ feature
	(with more on the way for 3.6).  Posted to LKML:
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/324 (commits 1-3 and 5),
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/611 (commit 4),
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/30/390 (commit 6), and
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/4/410 (commit 7, combined with
	the other commits for the convenience of the tester).

 2)	Changes to make rcu_barrier() avoid disrupting execution of CPUs
	that have no RCU callbacks.  Posted to LKML:
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/322.

 3)	A couple of commits that improve the efficiency of the interaction
	between preemptible RCU and the scheduler, these two being all
	that survived an abortive attempt to allow preemptible RCU's
	__rcu_read_lock() to be inlined.  The full set was posted to
	LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/14/143, and the first and
	third patches of that set remain.

 4)	Lai Jiangshan's algorithmic implementation of SRCU, which includes
	call_srcu() and srcu_barrier().  A major feature of this new
	implementation is that synchronize_srcu() no longer disturbs
	the execution of other CPUs.  This work is based on earlier
	implementations by Peter Zijlstra and Paul E. McKenney.  Posted to
	LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/22/82.

 5)	A number of miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements which were
	posted to LKML at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/353 with
	subsequent updates posted to LKML.

9b63776fa3 tracing: Do not enable function event with enable
With the adding of function tracing event to perf, it caused a
side effect that produces the following warning when enabling all
events in ftrace:

 # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/enable

[console]
event trace: Could not enable event function

This is because when enabling all events via the debugfs system
it ignores events that do not have a ->reg() function assigned.
This was to skip over the ftrace internal events (as they are
not TRACE_EVENTs). But as the ftrace function event now has
a ->reg() function attached to it for use with perf, it is no
longer ignored.

Worse yet, this ->reg() function is being called when it should
not be. It returns an error and causes the above warning to
be printed.

By adding a new event_call flag (TRACE_EVENT_FL_IGNORE_ENABLE)
and have all ftrace internel event structures have it set,
setting the events/enable will no longe try to incorrectly enable
the function event and does not warn.

b7dafa0ef3 compat: Fix RT signal mask corruption via sigprocmask
compat_sys_sigprocmask reads a smaller signal mask from userspace than
sigprogmask accepts for setting.  So the high word of blocked.sig[0]
will be cleared, releasing any potentially blocked RT signal.

This was discovered via userspace code that relies on get/setcontext.
glibc's i386 versions of those functions use sigprogmask instead of
rt_sigprogmask to save/restore signal mask and caused RT signal
unblocking this way.

As suggested by Linus, this replaces the sys_sigprocmask based compat
version with one that open-codes the required logic, including the merge
of the existing blocked set with the new one provided on SIG_SETMASK.

b1420f1c8b rcu: Make rcu_barrier() less disruptive
The rcu_barrier() primitive interrupts each and every CPU, registering
a callback on every CPU.  Once all of these callbacks have been invoked,
rcu_barrier() knows that every callback that was registered before
the call to rcu_barrier() has also been invoked.

However, there is no point in registering a callback on a CPU that
currently has no callbacks, most especially if that CPU is in a
deep idle state.  This commit therefore makes rcu_barrier() avoid
interrupting CPUs that have no callbacks.  Doing this requires reworking
the handling of orphaned callbacks, otherwise callbacks could slip through
rcu_barrier()'s net by being orphaned from a CPU that rcu_barrier() had
not yet interrupted to a CPU that rcu_barrier() had already interrupted.
This reworking was needed anyway to take a first step towards weaning
RCU from the CPU_DYING notifier's use of stop_cpu().

The current initialization of the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ per-CPU variables makes
needless and fragile assumptions about the initial value of things like
the jiffies counter.  This commit therefore explicitly initializes all of
them that are better started with a non-zero value.  It also adds some
comments describing the per-CPU state variables.

21e52e1566 rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ handle timer migration
The current RCU_FAST_NO_HZ assumes that timers do not migrate unless a
CPU goes offline, in which case it assumes that the CPU will have to come
out of dyntick-idle mode (cancelling the timer) in order to go offline.
This is important because when RCU_FAST_NO_HZ permits a CPU to enter
dyntick-idle mode despite having RCU callbacks pending, it posts a timer
on that CPU to force a wakeup on that CPU.  This wakeup ensures that the
CPU will eventually handle the end of the grace period, including invoking
its RCU callbacks.

However, Pascal Chapperon's test setup shows that the timer handler
rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() really does get invoked in some cases.  This is
problematic because this can cause the CPU that entered dyntick-idle
mode despite still having RCU callbacks pending to remain in
dyntick-idle mode indefinitely, which means that its RCU callbacks might
never be invoked.  This situation can result in grace-period delays or
even system hangs, which matches Pascal's observations of slow boot-up
and shutdown (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/5/142).  See also the bugzilla:

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806548

This commit therefore causes the "should never be invoked" timer handler
rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() to use smp_call_function_single() to wake up
the CPU for which the timer was intended, allowing that CPU to invoke
its RCU callbacks in a timely manner.

We always need to pass the last sample period to
perf_sample_data_init(), otherwise the event distribution will be
wrong. Thus, modifiyng the function interface with the required period
as argument. So basically a pattern like this:

        perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL);
        data.period = event->hw.last_period;

will now be like that:

        perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL, event->hw.last_period);

Avoids unininitialized data.period and simplifies code.

cb83b629ba sched/numa: Rewrite the CONFIG_NUMA sched domain support
The current code groups up to 16 nodes in a level and then puts an
ALLNODES domain spanning the entire tree on top of that. This doesn't
reflect the numa topology and esp for the smaller not-fully-connected
machines out there today this might make a difference.

Therefore, build a proper numa topology based on node_distance().

Since there's no fixed numa layers anymore, the static SD_NODE_INIT
and SD_ALLNODES_INIT aren't usable anymore, the new code tries to
construct something similar and scales some values either on the
number of cpus in the domain and/or the node_distance() ratio.

c82513e513 sched: Change rq->nr_running to unsigned int
Since there's a PID space limit of 30bits (see
futex.h:FUTEX_TID_MASK) and allocating that many tasks (assuming a
lower bound of 2 pages per task) would still take 8T of memory it
seems reasonable to say that unsigned int is sufficient for
rq->nr_running.

When we do get anywhere near that amount of tasks I suspect other
things would go funny, load-balancer load computations would really
need to be hoisted to 128bit etc.

So save a few bytes and convert rq->nr_running and friends to
unsigned int.
