02b67518e2 tracing: add support for userspace stacktraces in tracing/iter_ctrl
Impact: add new (default-off) tracing visualization feature

Usage example:

 mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
 cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
 echo sched_switch >current_tracer
 echo 1 >tracing_enabled
 .... run application ...
 echo 0 >tracing_enabled

Then read one of 'trace','latency_trace','trace_pipe'.

To get the best output you can compile your userspace programs with
frame pointers (at least glibc + the app you are tracing).

f201ae2356 tracing/function-return-tracer: store return stack into task_struct and allocate it dynamically
Impact: use deeper function tracing depth safely

Some tests showed that function return tracing needed a more deeper depth
of function calls. But it could be unsafe to store these return addresses
to the stack.

So these arrays will now be allocated dynamically into task_struct of current
only when the tracer is activated.

Typical scheme when tracer is activated:
- allocate a return stack for each task in global list.
- fork: allocate the return stack for the newly created task
- exit: free return stack of current
- idle init: same as fork

I chose a default depth of 50. I don't have overruns anymore.

3aeb95d5b7 x86_64: fix the check in stack_overflow_check
Impact: make stack overflow debug check and printout narrower

stack_overflow_check() should consider the stack usage of pt_regs, and
thus it could warn us in advance. Additionally, it looks better for
the warning time to start at INITIAL_JIFFIES.

Assuming that rsp gets close to the check point before interrupt
arrives: when interrupt really happens, thread_info will be partly
overrode.

3889d0cea2 x86: revert default reboot method to REBOOT_KBD
Impact: Reverts default reboot method.

Checkin 14d7ca5c57 changed the default
reboot method to "pci", a.k.a. port CF9.  Unfortunately this has been
shown to cause lockups on at least two systems for which REBOOT_KBD
worked, both Thinkpads with Intel chipsets.  This reverts the default
to REBOOT_KBD, while leaving the option to have "reboot=pci" specified
explicitly or via a DMI match.

606572634c powerpc/spufs: Fix spinning in spufs_ps_fault on signal
Currently, we can end up in an infinite loop if we get a signal
while the kernel has faulted in spufs_ps_fault. Eg:

 alarm(1);

 write(fd, some_spu_psmap_register_address, 4);

- the write's copy_from_user will fault on the ps mapping, and
signal_pending will be non-zero. Because returning from the fault
handler will never clear TIF_SIGPENDING, so we'll just keep faulting,
resulting in an unkillable process using 100% of CPU.

This change returns VM_FAULT_SIGBUS if there's a fatal signal pending,
letting us escape the loop.

b704882e70 [IA64] Rationalize kernel mode alignment checking
Itanium processors can handle some misaligned data accesses. They
also provide a mode where all such accesses are forced to trap. The
kernel was schizophrenic about use of this mode:

* Base kernel code ran in permissive mode where the only traps
  generated were from those cases that the h/w could not handle.
* Interrupt, syscall and trap code ran in strict mode where all
  unaligned accesses caused traps to the 0x5a00 unaligned reference
  vector.

Use strict alignment checking throughout the kernel, but make
sure that we continue to let user mode use more relaxed mode
as the default.

0ca4b6b001 x86: Fix interrupt leak due to migration
When we migrate an interrupt from one CPU to another, we set the
move_in_progress flag and clean up the vectors later once they're not
being used.  If you're unlucky and call destroy_irq() before the vectors
become un-used, the move_in_progress flag is never cleared, which causes
the interrupt to become unusable.

This was discovered by Jesse Brandeburg for whom it manifested as an
MSI-X device refusing to use MSI-X mode when the driver was unloaded
and reloaded repeatedly.

The problem is that compat_arch_ptrace() enters with an addr value of
type compat_ulong_t and calls translate_usr_offset() to translate the
address offset into a struct pt_regs offset like this:

	addr = translate_usr_offset(addr)

this means that any return value of translate_usr_offset() is stored
back as compat_ulong_t type into the addr variable.

But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr
can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value
sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory:

	if (addr < 0)
		break;

Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return
values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value
"sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator.

Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values
for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs).

This patch survived my compile and run-tests.

f48cb8b48b powerpc/ppc64: ftrace, handle module trampolines for dyn ftrace
Impact: Allow 64 bit PowerPC to trace modules with dynamic ftrace

This adds code to handle the PPC64 module trampolines, and allows for
PPC64 to use dynamic ftrace.

Thanks to Paul Mackerras for these updates:

  - fix the mod and rec->arch.mod NULL checks.
  - fix to is_bl_op compare.

Thanks to Milton Miller for:

  - finding the nasty race with using two nops, and recommending
    instead that I use a branch 8 forward.

e4486fe316 powerpc: ftrace, use probe_kernel API to modify code
Impact: use cleaner probe_kernel API over assembly

Using probe_kernel_read/write interface is a much cleaner approach
than the current assembly version.

6d07bb4735 powerpc: ftrace, do not latency trace idle
Impact: fix for irq off latency tracer

When idle is called, interrupts are disabled, but the idle function
will still wake up on an interrupt. The problem is that the interrupt
disabled latency tracer will take this call to idle as a latency.

This patch disables the latency tracing when going into idle.

dcd072e260 x86: clean up after: move entry_64.S register saving out of the macros
This add-on patch to x86: move entry_64.S register saving out
of the macros visually cleans up the appearance of the code by
introducing some basic helper macro's. It also adds some cfi

9bc646f163 x86: fix __cpuinit/__init tangle in init_thread_xstate()
Impact:	fix incorrect __init annotation

This patch removes the following section mismatch warning. A patch set
was send previously (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/10/407). But
introduce some other problem, reported by Rufus
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/11/46). Then Ingo Molnar suggest that,
it's best to remove __init from xsave_cntxt_init(void). Which is the
second patch in this series. Now, this one removes the following
warning.

WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.cpuinit.text+0x2237): Section
mismatch in reference from the function cpu_init() to the function
.init.text:init_thread_xstate()
The function __cpuinit cpu_init() references
a function __init init_thread_xstate().
If init_thread_xstate is only used by cpu_init then
annotate init_thread_xstate with a matching annotation.

d99015b1ab x86: move entry_64.S register saving out of the macros
Here is a combined patch that moves "save_args" out-of-line for
the interrupt macro and moves "error_entry" mostly out-of-line
for the zeroentry and errorentry macros.

The save_args function becomes really straightforward and easy
to understand, with the possible exception of the stack switch
code, which now needs to copy the return address of to the
calling function. Normal interrupts arrive with ((~vector)-0x80)
on the stack, which gets adjusted in common_interrupt:

<common_interrupt>:
(5)  addq   $0xffffffffffffff80,(%rsp)		/* -> ~(vector) */
(4)  sub    $0x50,%rsp				/* space for registers */
(5)  callq  ffffffff80211290 <save_args>
(5)  callq  ffffffff80214290 <do_IRQ>
<ret_from_intr>:
     ...

An apic interrupt stub now look like this:

<thermal_interrupt>:
(5)  pushq  $0xffffffffffffff05			/* ~(vector) */
(4)  sub    $0x50,%rsp				/* space for registers */
(5)  callq  ffffffff80211290 <save_args>
(5)  callq  ffffffff80212b8f <smp_thermal_interrupt>
(5)  jmpq   ffffffff80211f93 <ret_from_intr>

Similarly the exception handler register saving function becomes
simpler, without the need of any parameter shuffling. The stub
for an exception without errorcode looks like this:

<overflow>:
(6)  callq  *0x1cad12(%rip)        # ffffffff803dd448 <pv_irq_ops+0x38>
(2)  pushq  $0xffffffffffffffff			/* no syscall */
(4)  sub    $0x78,%rsp				/* space for registers */
(5)  callq  ffffffff8030e3b0 <error_entry>
(3)  mov    %rsp,%rdi				/* pt_regs pointer */
(2)  xor    %esi,%esi				/* no error code */
(5)  callq  ffffffff80213446 <do_overflow>
(5)  jmpq   ffffffff8030e460 <error_exit>

And one for an exception with errorcode like this:

<segment_not_present>:
(6)  callq  *0x1cab92(%rip)        # ffffffff803dd448 <pv_irq_ops+0x38>
(4)  sub    $0x78,%rsp				/* space for registers */
(5)  callq  ffffffff8030e3b0 <error_entry>
(3)  mov    %rsp,%rdi				/* pt_regs pointer */
(5)  mov    0x78(%rsp),%rsi			/* load error code */
(9)  movq   $0xffffffffffffffff,0x78(%rsp)	/* no syscall */
(5)  callq  ffffffff80213209 <do_segment_not_present>
(5)  jmpq   ffffffff8030e460 <error_exit>

Unfortunately, this last type is more than 32 bytes. But the total space
savings due to this patch is about 2500 bytes on an smp-configuration,
and I think the code is clearer than it was before. The tested kernels
were non-paravirt ones (i.e., without the indirect call at the top of
the exception handlers).

Anyhow, I tested this patch on top of a recent -tip. The machine
was an 2x4-core Xeon at 2333MHz. Measured where the delays between
(almost-)adjacent rdtsc instructions. The graphs show how much
time is spent outside of the program as a function of the measured
delay. The area under the graph represents the total time spent
outside the program. Eight instances of the rdtsctest were
started, each pinned to a single cpu. The histogams are added.
For each kernel two measurements were done: one in mostly idle
condition, the other while running "bonnie++ -f", bound to cpu 0.
Each measurement took 40 minutes runtime. See the attached graphs
for the results. The graphs overlap almost everywhere, but there
are small differences.
