alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page
allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is
valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't
fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the
name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is
restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is
only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags.
The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example
commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy:
migrate_to_node should only migrate to node").
Another issue with the name is that there's a family of
alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead
of page order), which leads to more confusion.
To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames
alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that
it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general
usage. Both functions get described in comments.
It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for
allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that
__GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't
duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small
anyway.
Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to
call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent()
which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use
alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some
VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in
alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes
NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously
exposed.
Both differences will be rectified by the next patch.
To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily
hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in
alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose
more existing buggy callers.

When parsing SRAT, all memory ranges are added into numa_meminfo. In
numa_init(), before entering numa_cleanup_meminfo(), all possible memory
ranges are in numa_meminfo. And numa_cleanup_meminfo() removes all
ranges over max_pfn or empty.
But, this only works if the nodes are continuous. Let's have a look at
the following example:
We have an SRAT like this:
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x5fffffff]
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0x1ffffffffff]
SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [mem 0x20000000000-0x3ffffffffff]
SRAT: Node 4 PXM 2 [mem 0x40000000000-0x5ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 5 PXM 3 [mem 0x60000000000-0x7ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 2 PXM 4 [mem 0x80000000000-0x9ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 3 PXM 5 [mem 0xa0000000000-0xbffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 6 PXM 6 [mem 0xc0000000000-0xdffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 7 PXM 7 [mem 0xe0000000000-0xfffffffffff] hotplug
On boot, only node 0,1,2,3 exist.
And the numa_meminfo will look like this:
numa_meminfo.nr_blks = 9
1. on node 0: [0, 60000000]
2. on node 0: [100000000, 20000000000]
3. on node 1: [20000000000, 40000000000]
4. on node 4: [40000000000, 60000000000]
5. on node 5: [60000000000, 80000000000]
6. on node 2: [80000000000, a0000000000]
7. on node 3: [a0000000000, a0800000000]
8. on node 6: [c0000000000, a0800000000]
9. on node 7: [e0000000000, a0800000000]
And numa_cleanup_meminfo() will merge 1 and 2, and remove 8,9 because the
end address is over max_pfn, which is a0800000000. But 4 and 5 are not
removed because their end addresses are less then max_pfn. But in fact,
node 4 and 5 don't exist.
In a word, numa_cleanup_meminfo() is not able to handle holes between nodes.
Since memory ranges in node 4 and 5 are in numa_meminfo, in
numa_register_memblks(), node 4 and 5 will be mistakenly set to online.
If you run lscpu, it will show:
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-14,128-142
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 15-29,143-157
NUMA node2 CPU(s):
NUMA node3 CPU(s):
NUMA node4 CPU(s): 62-76,190-204
NUMA node5 CPU(s): 78-92,206-220
In this patch, we use memblock_overlaps_region() to check if ranges in
numa_meminfo overlap with ranges in memory_block. Since memory_block
contains all available memory at boot time, if they overlap, it means the
ranges exist. If not, then remove them from numa_meminfo.
After this patch, lscpu will show:
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-14,128-142
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 15-29,143-157
NUMA node4 CPU(s): 62-76,190-204
NUMA node5 CPU(s): 78-92,206-220

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical
drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the
removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and
the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages().
Summary:
- Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map.
This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page()
operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in
'struct block_device_operations').
For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes
from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device
memory will arrive in a later kernel.
- Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3.
Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
- Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
- Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
- Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for
issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes"

The privcmd code is mixing the usage of GFN and MFN within the same
functions which make the code difficult to understand when you only work
with auto-translated guests.
The privcmd driver is only dealing with GFN so replace all the mention
of MFN into GFN.
The ioctl structure used to map foreign change has been left unchanged
given that the userspace is using it. Nonetheless, add a comment to
explain the expected value within the "mfn" field.

Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN
is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for
PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and
confused developers about the expected behavior.
For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name.
Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN.
For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with
gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some
reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests
No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even
though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion
in xen repo.
Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a
name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page.
Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such
as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up
will come in follow-up patches.

The swiotlb is required when programming a DMA address on ARM when a
device is not protected by an IOMMU.
In this case, the DMA address should always be equal to the machine address.
For DOM0 memory, Xen ensure it by have an identity mapping between the
guest address and host address. However, when mapping a foreign grant
reference, the 1:1 model doesn't work.
For ARM guest, most of the callers of pfn_to_mfn expects to get a GFN
(Guest Frame Number), i.e a PFN (Page Frame Number) from the Linux point
of view given that all ARM guest are auto-translated.
Even though the name pfn_to_mfn is misleading, we need to ensure that
those caller get a GFN and not by mistake a MFN. In pratical, I haven't
seen error related to this but we should fix it for the sake of
correctness.
In order to fix the implementation of pfn_to_mfn on ARM in a follow-up
patch, we have to introduce new helpers to return the DMA from a PFN and
the invert.
On x86, the new helpers will be an alias of pfn_to_mfn and mfn_to_pfn.
The helpers will be used in swiotlb and xen_biovec_phys_mergeable.
This is necessary in the latter because we have to ensure that the
biovec code will not try to merge a biovec using foreign page and
another using Linux memory.
Lastly, the helper mfn_to_local_pfn has been renamed to bfn_to_local_pfn
given that the only usage was in swiotlb.

When a pv-domain (including dom0) is started it tries to size it's
p2m list according to the maximum possible memory amount it ever can
achieve. Limit the initial maximum memory size to the architectural
limit of the hardware in order to avoid overflows during remapping
of memory.
This problem will occur when dom0 is started with an initial memory
size being a multiple of 1GB, but without specifying it's maximum
memory size. The kernel must be configured without
CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG for the problem to happen.

Commit b1c9f169047b ("xen: split counting of extra memory pages...")
introduced an error when dom0 was started with limited memory occurring
only on some hardware.
The problem arises in case dom0 is started with initial memory and
maximum memory being the same. The kernel must be configured without
CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG for the problem to happen. If all
of this is true and the E820 map of the machine is sparse (some areas
are not covered) then the machine might crash early in the boot
process.
An example E820 map triggering the problem looks like this:
[ 0.000000] e820: BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
[ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000000009d7ff] usable

In this case the area a0000-dffff isn't present in the map. This will
confuse the memory setup of the domain when remapping the memory from
such holes to populated areas.
To avoid the problem the accounting of to be remapped memory has to
count such holes in the E820 map as well.

Commit b1c9f169047b ("xen: split counting of extra memory pages...")
introduced an error when dom0 was started with limited memory.
The problem arises in case dom0 is started with initial memory and
maximum memory being the same and exactly a multiple of 1 GB. The
kernel must be configured without CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
for the problem to happen. In this case it will crash very early
during boot due to the virtual mapped p2m list not being large
enough to be able to remap any memory:

An IPI is sent to flush remote TLBs when a page is unmapped that was
potentially accesssed by other CPUs. There are many circumstances where
this happens but the obvious one is kswapd reclaiming pages belonging to a
running process as kswapd and the task are likely running on separate
CPUs.
On small machines, this is not a significant problem but as machine gets
larger with more cores and more memory, the cost of these IPIs can be
high. This patch uses a simple structure that tracks CPUs that
potentially have TLB entries for pages being unmapped. When the unmapping
is complete, the full TLB is flushed on the assumption that a refill cost
is lower than flushing individual entries.
Architectures wishing to do this must give the following guarantee.
If a clean page is unmapped and not immediately flushed, the
architecture must guarantee that a write to that linear address
from a CPU with a cached TLB entry will trap a page fault.
This is essentially what the kernel already depends on but the window is
much larger with this patch applied and is worth highlighting. The
architecture should consider whether the cost of the full TLB flush is
higher than sending an IPI to flush each individual entry. An additional
architecture helper called flush_tlb_local is required. It's a trivial
wrapper with some accounting in the x86 case.
The impact of this patch depends on the workload as measuring any benefit
requires both mapped pages co-located on the LRU and memory pressure. The
case with the biggest impact is multiple processes reading mapped pages
taken from the vm-scalability test suite. The test case uses NR_CPU
readers of mapped files that consume 10*RAM.

This is showing that the readers completed 24.40% faster with 29% less
system CPU time. From vmstats, it is known that the vanilla kernel was
interrupted roughly 900K times per second during the steady phase of the
test and the patched kernel was interrupts 180K times per second.
The impact is lower on a single socket machine.

It's still a noticeable improvement with vmstat showing interrupts went
from roughly 500K per second to 45K per second.
The patch will have no impact on workloads with no memory pressure or have
relatively few mapped pages. It will have an unpredictable impact on the
workload running on the CPU being flushed as it'll depend on how many TLB
entries need to be refilled and how long that takes. Worst case, the TLB
will be completely cleared of active entries when the target PFNs were not
resident at all.

When unmapping pages it is necessary to flush the TLB. If that page was
accessed by another CPU then an IPI is used to flush the remote CPU. That
is a lot of IPIs if kswapd is scanning and unmapping >100K pages per
second.
There already is a window between when a page is unmapped and when it is
TLB flushed. This series increases the window so multiple pages can be
flushed using a single IPI. This should be safe or the kernel is hosed
already.
Patch 1 simply made the rest of the series easier to write as ftrace
could identify all the senders of TLB flush IPIS.
Patch 2 tracks what CPUs potentially map a PFN and then sends an IPI
to flush the entire TLB.
Patch 3 tracks when there potentially are writable TLB entries that
need to be batched differently
Patch 4 increases SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX to further batch flushes
The performance impact is documented in the changelogs but in the optimistic
case on a 4-socket machine the full series reduces interrupts from 900K
interrupts/second to 60K interrupts/second.
This patch (of 4):
It is easy to trace when an IPI is received to flush a TLB but harder to
detect what event sent it. This patch makes it easy to identify the
source of IPIs being transmitted for TLB flushes on x86.

The kernel's NMI watchdog has nothing to do with the watchdog subsystem.
Its header declarations should be in linux/nmi.h, not linux/watchdog.h.
The code provided two sets of dummy functions if HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is
not configured, one in the include file and one in kernel/watchdog.c.
Remove the dummy functions from kernel/watchdog.c and use those from the
include file.

Currently context size (cra_ctxsize) doesn't specified for
ghash_async_alg. Which means it's zero. Thus crypto_create_tfm()
doesn't allocate needed space for ghash_async_ctx, so any
read/write to ctx (e.g. in ghash_async_init_tfm()) is not valid.

Pull locking and atomic updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Main changes in this cycle are:
- Extend atomic primitives with coherent logic op primitives
(atomic_{or,and,xor}()) and deprecate the old partial APIs
(atomic_{set,clear}_mask())
The old ops were incoherent with incompatible signatures across
architectures and with incomplete support. Now every architecture
supports the primitives consistently (by Peter Zijlstra)
- Generic support for 'relaxed atomics':
- _acquire/release/relaxed() flavours of xchg(), cmpxchg() and {add,sub}_return()
- atomic_read_acquire()
- atomic_set_release()
This came out of porting qwrlock code to arm64 (by Will Deacon)
- Clean up the fragile static_key APIs that were causing repeat bugs,
by introducing a new one:
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);
which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
value.
Then allow:
static_branch_likely()
static_branch_unlikely()
to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case. To be able to know the 'type' of the static key we encode it
in the jump entry (by Peter Zijlstra)
- Static key self-tests (by Jason Baron)
- qrwlock optimizations (by Waiman Long)
- small futex enhancements (by Davidlohr Bueso)
- ... and misc other changes"

encapsulation and decapsulation without bearing the overhead of a
full blown netdevice. From Thomas Graf, Jiri Benc, and a cast of
others.
10) Add Identifier Locator Addressing support for ipv6, from Tom
Herbert.
11) Support fragmented SKBs in iwlwifi, from Johannes Berg.

14) Stop using a zero TX queue length to mean that a device shouldn't
have a qdisc attached, use an explicit flag instead. From Phil
Sutter.
15) Use generic geneve netdevice infrastructure in openvswitch, from
Pravin B Shelar.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"From the number of commits perspective, the biggest items are ACPICA
and cpufreq changes with the latter taking the lead (over 50 commits).
On the cpufreq front, there are many cleanups and minor fixes in the
core and governors, driver updates etc. We also have a new cpufreq
driver for Mediatek MT8173 chips.
ACPICA mostly updates its debug infrastructure and adds a number of
fixes and cleanups for a good measure.
The Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is updated with new
DT bindings and support for them among other things.
We have a few updates of the generic power domains framework and a
reorganization of the ACPI device enumeration code and bus type
operations.
And a lot of fixes and cleanups all over.
Included is one branch from the MFD tree as it contains some
PM-related driver core and ACPI PM changes a few other commits are
based on.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150818 including method
tracing extensions to allow more in-depth AML debugging in the
kernel and a number of assorted fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore, Lv
Zheng, Markus Elfring).
- ACPI sysfs code updates and a documentation update related to AML
method tracing (Lv Zheng).
- ACPI EC driver fix related to serialized evaluations of _Qxx
methods and ACPI tools updates allowing the EC userspace tool to be
built from the kernel source (Lv Zheng).
- ACPI processor driver updates preparing it for future introduction
of CPPC support and ACPI PCC mailbox driver updates (Ashwin
Chaugule).
- ACPI interrupts enumeration fix for a regression related to the
handling of IRQ attribute conflicts between MADT and the ACPI
namespace (Jiang Liu).
- Fixes related to ACPI device PM (Mika Westerberg, Srinidhi
Kasagar).
- ACPI device registration code reorganization to separate the
sysfs-related code and bus type operations from the rest (Rafael J
Wysocki).
- Assorted cleanups in the ACPI core (Jarkko Nikula, Mathias Krause,
Andy Shevchenko, Rafael J Wysocki, Nicolas Iooss).
- ACPI cpufreq driver and ia64 cpufreq driver fixes and cleanups (Pan
Xinhui, Rafael J Wysocki).
- cpufreq core cleanups on top of the previous changes allowing it to
preseve its sysfs directories over system suspend/resume (Viresh
Kumar, Rafael J Wysocki, Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).
- cpufreq fixes and cleanups related to governors (Viresh Kumar).
- cpufreq updates (core and the cpufreq-dt driver) related to the
turbo/boost mode support (Viresh Kumar, Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz).
- New DT bindings for Operating Performance Points (OPP), support for
them in the OPP framework and in the cpufreq-dt driver plus related
OPP framework fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar).
- cpufreq powernv driver updates (Shilpasri G Bhat).
- New cpufreq driver for Mediatek MT8173 (Pi-Cheng Chen).
- Assorted cpufreq driver (speedstep-lib, sfi, integrator) cleanups
and fixes (Abhilash Jindal, Andrzej Hajda, Cristian Ardelean).

(Xunlei Pang).
- intel_idle driver updates including Skylake Client support and
support for freeze-mode-specific idle states (Len Brown).
- Driver core updates related to power management (Andy Shevchenko,
Rafael J Wysocki).
- Generic power domains framework fixes and cleanups (Jon Hunter,
Geert Uytterhoeven, Rajendra Nayak, Ulf Hansson).
- Device PM QoS framework update to allow the latency tolerance
setting to be exposed to user space via sysfs (Mika Westerberg).
- devfreq support for PPMUv2 in Exynos5433 and a fix for an incorrect
exynos-ppmu DT binding (Chanwoo Choi, Javier Martinez Canillas).
- System sleep support updates (Alan Stern, Len Brown, SungEun Kim).
- rockchip-io AVS support updates (Heiko Stuebner).
- PM core clocks support fixup (Colin Ian King).
- Power capping RAPL driver update including support for Skylake H/S
and Broadwell-H (Radivoje Jovanovic, Seiichi Ikarashi).

Pull NOHZ updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes, mostly written by Frederic Weisbecker, include:
- Fix some jiffies based cputime assumptions. (No real harm because
the concerned code isn't used by full dynticks.)
- Simplify jiffies <-> usecs conversions. Remove dead code.
- Remove early hacks on nohz full code that avoided messing up idle
nohz internals. Now nohz integrates well full and idle and such
hack have become needless.
- Restart nohz full tick from irq exit. (A simplification and a
preparation for future optimization on scheduler kick to nohz
full)
- Code cleanups.
- Tile driver isolation enhancement on top of nohz. (Chris Metcalf)"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change in this cycle is the rewrite of the main SMP load
balancing metric: the CPU load/utilization. The main goal was to make
the metric more precise and more representative - see the changelog of
this commit for the gory details:
9d89c257dfb9 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking")
It is done in a way that significantly reduces complexity of the code:
5 files changed, 249 insertions(+), 494 deletions(-)
and the performance testing results are encouraging. Nevertheless we
need to keep an eye on potential regressions, since this potentially
affects every SMP workload in existence.
This work comes from Yuyang Du.
Other changes:
- SCHED_DL updates. (Andrea Parri)
- Simplify architecture callbacks by removing finish_arch_switch().
(Peter Zijlstra et al)
- cputime accounting: guarantee stime + utime == rtime. (Peter
Zijlstra)
- optimize idle CPU wakeups some more - inspired by Facebook server
loads. (Mike Galbraith)
- stop_machine fixes and updates. (Oleg Nesterov)
- Introduce the 'trace_sched_waking' tracepoint. (Peter Zijlstra)

- Add support for using several Intel PT features (CYC, MTC packets),
the relevant documentation was updated in:
tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt
briefly describing those packets, its purposes, how to configure
them in the event config terms and relevant external documentation
for further reading. (Adrian Hunter)
- Introduce support for probing at an absolute address, for user and
kernel 'perf probe's, useful when one have the symbol maps on a
developer machine but not on an embedded system. (Wang Nan)
- Add Intel BTS support, with a call-graph script to show it and PT
in use in a GUI using 'perf script' python scripting with
postgresql and Qt. (Adrian Hunter)
- Allow selecting the type of callchains per event, including
disabling callchains in all but one entry in an event list, to save
space, and also to ask for the callchains collected in one event to
be used in other events. (Kan Liang)
- Beautify more syscall arguments in 'perf trace': (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
* A bunch more translate file/pathnames from pointers to strings.
* Convert numbers to strings for the 'keyctl' syscall 'option'
arg.
* Add missing 'clockid' entries.
- Introduce 'srcfile' sort key: (Andi Kleen)
# perf record -F 10000 usleep 1
# perf report --stdio --dsos '[kernel.vmlinux]' -s srcfile
<SNIP>
# Overhead Source File
26.49% copy_page_64.S
5.49% signal.c
0.51% msr.h
#
It can be combined with other fields, for instance, experiment with
'-s srcfile,symbol'.
There are some oddities in some distros and with some specific
DSOs, being investigated, so your mileage may vary.
- Support per-event 'freq' term: (Namhyung Kim)
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,freq=1234/',cycles -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -F
cpu/instructions,freq=1234/: sample_freq=1234
cycles: sample_period=1000
$
- Deref sys_enter pointer args with contents from probe:vfs_getname,
showing pathnames instead of pointers in many syscalls in 'perf
trace'. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Stop collecting /proc/kallsyms in perf.data files, saving about
4.5MB on a typical x86-64 system, use the the symbol resolution
routines used in all the other tools (report, top, etc) now that we
can ask libtraceevent to use perf's symbol resolution code.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Allow filtering out of perf's PID via 'perf record --exclude-perf'.
(Wang Nan)
- 'perf trace' now supports syscall groups, like strace, i.e:
$ trace -e file touch file
Will expand 'file' into multiple, file related, syscalls. More
work needed to add extra groups for other syscall groups, and also
to complement what was added for the 'file' group, included as a
proof of concept. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add lock_pi stresser to 'perf bench futex', to test the kernel code
related to FUTEX_(UN)LOCK_PI. (Davidlohr Bueso)
- Let user have timestamps with per-thread recording in 'perf record'
(Adrian Hunter)

details"
