  sched_clock: Fix atomicity/continuity bug by using cmpxchg64()
  x86: Provide an alternative() based cmpxchg64()

79e1dd05d1 x86: Provide an alternative() based cmpxchg64()
cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code.

cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there,
but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking.

This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that
uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on
all modern systems.

Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback
is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems
are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

8d65af789f sysctl: remove "struct file *" argument of ->proc_handler
It's unused.

It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl
shouldn't care about the rest.

It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason.

ea01c0d731 x86: Reduce verbosity of "TSC is reliable" message
On modern systems, the kernel prints the message

    Skipping synchronization checks as TSC is reliable.

once for every non-boot CPU.

This gets kind of ridiculous on huge systems; for example, on a
64-thread system I was lucky enough to get:

    $ dmesg | grep 'TSC is reliable' | wc
         63     567    4221

There's no point to doing this for every CPU, since the code is
just checking the boot CPU anyway, so change this to a
printk_once() to make the message appears only once.

 * remove linux/utsname.h inclusion from files which do not need it

NOTE: it looks like fs/binfmt_elf.c do not need utsname.h, however
due to some personality stuff it _is_ needed -- cowardly leave ELF-related
headers and files alone.

78f1c4d6b0 cpumask: use mm_cpumask() wrapper: x86
Makes code futureproof against the impending change to mm->cpu_vm_mask (to be a pointer).

It's also a chance to use the new cpumask_ ops which take a pointer

11868a2dc4 x86: mce: Use safer ways to access MCE registers
Use rdmsrl_safe() when accessing MCE registers. While in
theory we always 'know' which ones are safe to access from
the capability bits, there's a lot of hardware variations
and reality might differ from theory, as it did in this case:

   http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14204

[    0.010016] mce: CPU supports 5 MCE banks

[    0.011998] ESI: 00000000 EDI: 8c000000 EBP: 00000405 ESP: c17d5eac

So WARN_ONCE() instead of crashing the box.

( also fix a number of stylistic inconsistencies in the code. )

Note, we might still crash in wrmsrl() if we get that far, but
we shouldnt if the registers are truly inaccessible.

The below seems like the best fix. We disabled all lapic bits, except
the self-IPI-resend logic.

8cb3ed1393 x86: ptrace: set TS_COMPAT when 32-bit ptrace sets orig_eax>=0
The 32-bit ptrace syscall on a 64-bit kernel (32-bit debugger on
32-bit task) behaves differently than a native 32-bit kernel.  When
setting a register state of orig_eax>=0 and eax=-ERESTART* when the
debugged task is NOT on its way out of a 32-bit syscall, the task will
fail to do the syscall restart logic that it should do.

Test case available at http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/erestartsys-trap.c?cvsroot=systemtap

This happens because the 32-bit ptrace syscall sets eax=0xffffffff
when it sets orig_eax>=0.  The resuming task will not sign-extend this
for the -ERESTART* check because TS_COMPAT is not set.  (So the task
thinks it is restarting after a 64-bit syscall, not a 32-bit one.)

The fix is to have 32-bit ptrace calls set TS_COMPAT when setting
orig_eax>=0.  This ensures that the 32-bit syscall restart logic
will apply when the child resumes.

b60e714dc3 x86: ptrace: sysret path should reach syscall_trace_leave
If TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE or TIF_SINGLESTEP is set while inside a syscall,
the path back to user mode should get to syscall_trace_leave.

This does happen in most circumstances.  The exception to this is on
the 64-bit syscall fastpath, when no such flag was set on syscall
entry and nothing else has punted it off the fastpath for exit.  That
one exit fastpath fails to check for _TIF_WORK_SYSCALL_EXIT flags.
This makes the behavior inconsistent with what 32-bit tasks see and
what the native 32-bit kernel always does, and what 64-bit tasks see
in all cases where the iret path is taken anyhow.

Perhaps the only example that is affected is a ptrace stop inside
do_fork (for PTRACE_O_TRACE{CLONE,FORK,VFORK,VFORKDONE}).  Other
syscalls with internal ptrace stop points (execve) already take the
iret exit path for unrelated reasons.

Test cases for both PTRACE_SYSCALL and PTRACE_SINGLESTEP variants are at:
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/syscall-from-clone.c?cvsroot=systemtap
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/step-from-clone.c?cvsroot=systemtap

There was no special benefit to the sysret path's special path to call
do_notify_resume, because it always takes the iret exit path at the end.
So this change just makes the sysret exit path join the iret exit path
for all the signals and ptrace cases.  The fastpath still applies to
the plain syscall-audit and resched cases.

14c0abf14a x86: mce, inject: Use real inject-msg in raise_local
Current raise_local() uses a struct mce that comes from mce_write()
as a parameter instead of the real inject-msg, so when we set
mce.finished = 0 to clear injected MCE, the real inject stays
valid.

This will cause the remaining inject-msg affect the next injection,
which is not desired.

To fix this, real inject-msg is used in raise_local instead of the
one on the stack.

This patch is based on the diagnosis and the fixes by Dean Nelson.

b417c9fd86 x86: mce: Fix thermal throttling message storm
If a system switches back and forth between hot and cold mode,
the MCE code will print a stream of critical kernel messages.

Extend the throttling code to properly notice this, by
only printing the first hot + cold transition and omitting
the rest up to CHECK_INTERVAL (5 minutes).

This way we'll only get a single incident of:

 [  102.356584] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 1)
 [  102.357000] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
 [  102.369223] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal

Every 5 minutes. The 'total events' count tells the number of cold/hot
transitions detected, should overheating occur after 5 minutes again:

[  402.357580] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 24891)
[  402.358001] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal
[  450.704142] Machine check events logged

3c1596efe1 mm: don't use alloc_bootmem_low() where not strictly needed
Since alloc_bootmem() will never return inaccessible (via virtual
addressing) memory anyway, using the ..._low() variant only makes sense
when the physical address range of the allocated memory must fulfill
further constraints, espacially since on 64-bits (or more generally in all
cases where the pools the two variants allocate from are than the full
available range.

Probably the use in alloc_tce_table() could also be eliminated (based on
code inspection of pci-calgary_64.c), but that seems too risky given I
know nothing about that hardware and have no way to test it.

4481374ce8 mm: replace various uses of num_physpages by totalram_pages
Sizing of memory allocations shouldn't depend on the number of physical
pages found in a system, as that generally includes (perhaps a huge amount
of) non-RAM pages.  The amount of what actually is usable as storage
should instead be used as a basis here.

Some of the calculations (i.e.  those not intending to use high memory)
should likely even use (totalram_pages - totalhigh_pages).

cdd6c482c9 perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events
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. )

For debugging timekeeping or other related issues it might be
better to get the tsc_khz value returned by the hypervisor.
