The perf code has grown a lot since it started, and is big enough to
warrant its own subdirectory. For reference it's ~60% bigger than the
oprofile code. It declutters the kernel directory, makes it simpler to
grep for "just perf stuff", and allows us to shorten some filenames.
While we're at it, make it more obvious that we have two implementations
of the core perf logic. One for (roughly) Book3S CPUs, which was the
original implementation, and the other for Freescale embedded CPUs.

Reserve the memory during early boot to preserve CPU state data, HPTE region
and RMA (real mode area) region data in case of kernel crash. At the time of
crash, powerpc firmware will store CPU state data, HPTE region data and move
RMA region data to the reserved memory area.
If the firmware-assisted dump fails to reserve the memory, then fallback
to existing kexec-based kdump.
Most of the code implementation to reserve memory has been
adapted from phyp assisted dump implementation written by Linas Vepstas
and Manish Ahuja
This patch also introduces a config option CONFIG_FA_DUMP for firmware
assisted dump feature on Powerpc (ppc64) architecture.

The following patch implements the dynamic relocation processing for
PPC32 kernel. relocate() accepts the target virtual address and relocates
the kernel image to the same.
Currently the following relocation types are handled :
R_PPC_RELATIVE
R_PPC_ADDR16_LO
R_PPC_ADDR16_HI
R_PPC_ADDR16_HA
The last 3 relocations in the above list depends on value of Symbol indexed
whose index is encoded in the Relocation entry. Hence we need the Symbol
Table for processing such relocations.
Note: The GNU ld for ppc32 produces buggy relocations for relocation types
that depend on symbols. The value of the symbols with STB_LOCAL scope
should be assumed to be zero. - Alan Modra

This patch adds support for the new "jump label" feature.
Unlike x86 and sparc we just merrily patch the code with no locks etc,
as far as I know this is safe, but I'm not really sure what the x86/sparc
code is protecting against so maybe it's not.
I also don't see any reason for us to implement the poke_early() routine,
even though sparc does.

This patch implements the raw syscall tracepoints on PowerPC and exports
them for ftrace syscalls to use.
To minimise reworking existing code, I slightly re-ordered the thread
info flags such that the new TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT bit would still fit
within the 16 bits of the andi. instruction's UI field. The instructions
in question are in /arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_{32,64}.S to and the
_TIF_SYSCALL_T_OR_A with the thread flags to see if system call tracing
is enabled.
In the case of 64bit PowerPC, arch_syscall_addr and
arch_syscall_match_sym_name are overridden to allow ftrace syscalls to
work given the unusual system call table structure and symbol names that
start with a period.

Implement perf-events based hw-breakpoint interfaces for PowerPC
64-bit server (Book III S) processors. This allows access to a
given location to be used as an event that can be counted or
profiled by the perf_events subsystem.
This is done using the DABR (data breakpoint register), which can
also be used for process debugging via ptrace. When perf_event
hw_breakpoint support is configured in, the perf_event subsystem
manages the DABR and arbitrates access to it, and ptrace then
creates a perf_event when it is requested to set a data breakpoint.
[Adopted suggestions from Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> to
- emulate_step() all system-wide breakpoints and single-step only the
per-task breakpoints
- perform arch-specific cleanup before unregistration through
arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint()

This is started as swsusp_32.S modifications, but the amount of #ifdefs
made the whole file horribly unreadable, so let's put the support into
its own separate file.
The code should be relatively easy to modify to support 44x BookEs as
well, but since I don't have any 44x to test, let's confine the code to
FSL BookE. (The only FSL-specific part so far is 'flush_dcache_L1'.)

This implements perf_event support for the Freescale embedded performance
monitor, based on the existing perf_event.c that supports server/classic
chips.
Some limitations:
- Performance monitor interrupts are regular EE interrupts, and thus you
can't profile places with interrupts disabled. We may want to implement
soft IRQ-disabling, with perfmon interrupts exempted and treated as NMIs.
- When trying to schedule multiple event groups at once, and using
restricted events, situations could arise where scheduling fails even
though it would be possible. Consider three groups, each with two events.
One group has restricted events, the others don't. The two non-restricted
groups are scheduled, then one is removed, which happens to occupy the two
counters that can't do restricted events. The remaining non-restricted
group will not be moved to the non-restricted-capable counters to make
room if the restricted group tries to be scheduled.

The CHRP code has some fishy timer based code to scan the RTAS event
log, which uses a 1KB stack buffer and doesn't even use the results.
The pSeries code as a nicer daemon that allows userspace to read the
event log and basically uses the same RTAS interface
This patch moves rtasd.c out of platform/pseries and makes it usable
by CHRP, after removing the old crufty event log mechanism in there.
The nvram logging part of the daemon is still only available on 64-bit
since the underlying nvram management routines aren't currently shared.

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. )

The PCI device tree scanning code in pci_64.c is some useful functionality.
It allows PCI devices to be described in the device tree instead of being
probed for, which in turn allows pci devices to use all of the device tree
facilities to describe complex PCI bus architectures like GPIO and IRQ
routing (perhaps not a common situation for desktop or server systems,
but useful for embedded systems with on-board PCI devices).
This patch moves the device tree scanning into pci-common.c so it is
available for 32-bit powerpc machines too.

This adds support for tracing callchains for powerpc, both 32-bit
and 64-bit, and both in the kernel and userspace, from PMU interrupt
context.
The first three entries stored for each callchain are the NIP (next
instruction pointer), LR (link register), and the contents of the LR
save area in the second stack frame (the first is ignored because the
ABI convention on powerpc is that functions save their return address
in their caller's stack frame). Because leaf functions don't have to
save their return address (LR value) and don't have to establish a
stack frame, it's possible for either or both of LR and the second
stack frame's LR save area to have valid return addresses in them.
This is basically impossible to disambiguate without either reading
the code or looking at auxiliary information such as CFI tables.
Since we don't want to do either of those things at interrupt time,
we store both LR and the second stack frame's LR save area.
Once we get past the second stack frame, there is no ambiguity; all
return addresses we get are reliable.
For kernel traces, we check whether they are valid kernel instruction
addresses and store zero instead if they are not (rather than
omitting them, which would make it impossible for userspace to know
which was which). We also store zero instead of the second stack
frame's LR save area value if it is the same as LR.
For kernel traces, we check for interrupt frames, and for user traces,
we check for signal frames. In each case, since we're starting a new
trace, we store a PERF_CONTEXT_KERNEL/USER marker so that userspace
knows that the next three entries are NIP, LR and the second stack frame
for the interrupted context.
We read user memory with __get_user_inatomic. On 64-bit, if this
PMU interrupt occurred while interrupts are soft-disabled, and
there is no MMU hash table entry for the page, we will get an
-EFAULT return from __get_user_inatomic even if there is a valid
Linux PTE for the page, since hash_page isn't reentrant. Thus we
have code here to read the Linux PTE and access the page via the
kernel linear mapping. Since 64-bit doesn't use (or need) highmem
there is no need to do kmap_atomic. On 32-bit, we don't do soft
interrupt disabling, so this complication doesn't occur and there
is no need to fall back to reading the Linux PTE, since hash_page
(or the TLB miss handler) will get called automatically if necessary.
Note that we cannot get PMU interrupts in the interval during
context switch between switch_mm (which switches the user address
space) and switch_to (which actually changes current to the new
process). On 64-bit this is because interrupts are hard-disabled
in switch_mm and stay hard-disabled until they are soft-enabled
later, after switch_to has returned. So there is no possibility
of trying to do a user stack trace when the user address space is
not current's address space.

This adds support for the performance monitor hardware on the
MPC7450 family of processors (7450, 7451, 7455, 7447/7457, 7447A,
7448), used in the later Apple G4 powermacs/powerbooks and other
machines. These machines have 6 hardware counters with a unique
set of events which can be counted on each counter, with some
events being available on multiple counters.
Raw event codes for these processors are (PMC << 8) + PMCSEL.
If PMC is non-zero then the event is that selected by the given
PMCSEL value for that PMC (hardware counter). If PMC is zero
then the event selected is one of the low-numbered ones that are
common to several PMCs. In this case PMCSEL must be <= 22 and
the event is what that PMCSEL value would select on PMC1 (but
it may be placed any other PMC that has the same event for that
PMCSEL value).
For events that count cycles or occurrences that exceed a threshold,
the threshold requested can be specified in the 0x3f000 bits of the
raw event codes. If the event uses the threshold multiplier bit
and that bit should be set, that is indicated with the 0x40000 bit
of the raw event code.
This fills in some of the generic cache events. Unfortunately there
are quite a few blank spaces in the table, partly because these
processors tend to count cache hits rather than cache accesses.

This enables the perf_counter subsystem on 32-bit powerpc. Since we
don't have any support for hardware counters on 32-bit powerpc yet,
only software counters can be used.
Besides selecting HAVE_PERF_COUNTERS for 32-bit powerpc as well as
64-bit, the main thing this does is add an implementation of
set_perf_counter_pending(). This needs to arrange for
perf_counter_do_pending() to be called when interrupts are enabled.
Rather than add code to local_irq_restore as 64-bit does, the 32-bit
set_perf_counter_pending() generates an interrupt by setting the
decrementer to 1 so that a decrementer interrupt will become pending
in 1 or 2 timebase ticks (if a decrementer interrupt isn't already
pending). When interrupts are enabled, timer_interrupt() will be
called, and some new code in there calls perf_counter_do_pending().
We use a per-cpu array of flags to indicate whether we need to call
perf_counter_do_pending() or not.
This introduces a couple of new Kconfig symbols: PPC_HAVE_PMU_SUPPORT,
which is selected by processor families for which we have hardware PMU
support (currently only PPC64), and PPC_PERF_CTRS, which enables the
powerpc-specific perf_counter back-end.

Add the option to build the code under arch/powerpc with -Werror.
The intention is to make it harder for people to inadvertantly introduce
warnings in the arch/powerpc code. It needs to be configurable so that
if a warning is introduced, people can easily work around it while it's
being fixed.
The option is a negative, ie. don't enable -Werror, so that it will be
turned on for allyes and allmodconfig builds.
The default is n, in the hope that developers will build with -Werror,
that will probably lead to some build breaks, I am prepared to be flamed.
It's not enabled for math-emu, which is a steaming pile of warnings.

Commit 28794d34 ("powerpc/kconfig: Kill PPC_MULTIPLATFORM"), added
CONFIG_PPC_OF_BOOT_TRAMPOLINE to control the buliding of prom_init.o
However the Makefile still unconditionally builds prom_init_check,
the script that checks prom_init.o for symbol usage, and so in turn
prom_init.o is still always being built. (it's not linked though)
So surround all the prom_init_check logic with an ifeq block testing
if CONFIG_PPC_OF_BOOT_TRAMPOLINE is set.

This adds the back-end for the PMU on POWER7 processors. POWER7
has 4 fully-programmable counters and two fixed-function counters
(which do respect the freeze conditions, can generate interrupts,
and are writable, unlike PMC5/6 on POWER5+/6).

This patch includes the basic infrastructure to use swiotlb
bounce buffering on 32-bit powerpc. It is not yet enabled on
any platforms. Probably the most interesting bit is the
addition of addr_needs_map to dma_ops - we need this as
a dma_op because the decision of whether or not an addr
can be mapped by a device is device-specific.

Currently, load_up_altivec and give_up_altivec are duplicated
in 32-bit and 64-bit. This creates a common implementation that
is moved away from head_32.S, head_64.S and misc_64.S and into
vector.S, using the same macros we already use for our common
implementation of load_up_fpu.
I also moved the VSX code over to vector.S though in that case
I didn't make it build on 32-bit (yet).

CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM is a remain of the pre-powerpc days and isn't
really meaningful anymore. It was basically equivalent to PPC64 || 6xx.
This removes it along with the following changes:
- 32-bit platforms that relied on PPC32 && PPC_MULTIPLATFORM now rely
on 6xx which is what they want anyway.
- A new symbol, PPC_BOOK3S, is defined that represent compliance with
the "Server" variant of the architecture. This is set when either 6xx
or PPC64 is set and open the door for future BOOK3E 64-bit.
- 64-bit platforms that relied on PPC64 && PPC_MULTIPLATFORM now use
PPC64 && PPC_BOOK3S
- A separate and selectable CONFIG_PPC_OF_BOOT_TRAMPOLINE option is now
used to control the use of prom_init.c

Impact: more hardware support
This adds the back-end for the PMU on the POWER4 and POWER4+ processors
(GP and GQ). This is quite similar to the PPC970, with 8 PMCs, but has
fewer events than the PPC970.

Impact: more hardware support
This adds the back-end for the PMU on the POWER5+ processors (i.e. GS,
including GS DD3 aka POWER5++). This doesn't use the fixed-function
PMC5 and PMC6 since they don't respect the freeze conditions and don't
generate interrupts, as on POWER6.

This adds the back-end for the PMU on the POWER5 processor. This knows
how to use the fixed-function PMC5 and PMC6 (instructions completed and
run cycles). Unlike POWER6, PMC5/6 obey the freeze conditions and can
generate interrupts, so their use doesn't impose any extra restrictions.
POWER5+ is different and is not supported by this patch.

This is a port of the function graph tracer that was written by
Frederic Weisbecker for the x86.
This only works for PPC64 at the moment and only for static tracing.
PPC32 and dynamic function graph tracing support will come later.
The trace produces a visual calling of functions:
