Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede
stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected
places perspective. The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are
quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because
they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the
majority of cases.
From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream
revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is
the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be
based on it going forward. Also included is an update of the ACPI
device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects
the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support
wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA
device configuration object.
The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation
updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points.
There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it
adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before
Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on
the last minute for 4.1.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150515 including basic support
for ACPI 6 features: new ACPI tables introduced by ACPI 6 (STAO,
XENV, WPBT, NFIT, IORT), changes related to the other tables (DTRM,
FADT, LPIT, MADT), new predefined names (_BTH, _CR3, _DSD, _LPI,
_MTL, _PRR, _RDI, _RST, _TFP, _TSN), fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore,
Lv Zheng).
- ACPI device power management core code update to follow ACPI 6
which reflects the ACPI device power management implementation in
Windows (Rafael J Wysocki).
- rework of the backlight interface selection logic to reduce the
number of kernel command line options and improve the handling of
DMI quirks that may be involved in that and to make the code
generally more straightforward (Hans de Goede).
- fixes for the ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) driver related to the
handling of EC transactions (Lv Zheng).
- fix for a regression related to the ACPI resources management and
resulting from a recent change of ACPI initialization code ordering
(Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a system initialization regression related to ACPI
introduced during the 3.14 cycle and caused by running the code
that switches the platform over to the ACPI mode too early in the
initialization sequence (Rafael J Wysocki).
- support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object related to
DMA cache coherence (Suravee Suthikulpanit).
- ACPI/APEI fixes and cleanups (Jiri Kosina, Borislav Petkov).
- ACPI battery driver cleanups (Luis Henriques, Mathias Krause).
- ACPI processor driver cleanups (Hanjun Guo).
- cleanups and documentation update related to the ACPI device
properties interface based on _DSD (Rafael J Wysocki).
- ACPI device power management fixes (Rafael J Wysocki).
- assorted cleanups related to ACPI (Dominik Brodowski, Fabian
Frederick, Lorenzo Pieralisi, Mathias Krause, Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a long-standing issue causing General Protection Faults to
be generated occasionally on return to user space after resume from
ACPI-based suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 (Ingo Molnar).
- fix to make the suspend core code return -EBUSY consistently in all
cases when system suspend is aborted due to wakeup detection (Ruchi
Kandoi).
- support for automated device wakeup IRQ handling allowing drivers
to make their PM support more starightforward (Tony Lindgren).
- new tracepoints for suspend-to-idle tracing and rework of the
prepare/complete callbacks tracing in the PM core (Todd E Brandt,
Rafael J Wysocki).
- wakeup sources framework enhancements (Jin Qian).
- new macro for noirq system PM callbacks (Grygorii Strashko).
- assorted cleanups related to system suspend (Rafael J Wysocki).
- cpuidle core cleanups to make the code more efficient (Rafael J
Wysocki).
- powernv/pseries cpuidle driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat).
- cpufreq core fixes related to CPU online/offline that should reduce
the overhead of these operations quite a bit, unless the CPU in
question is physically going away (Viresh Kumar, Saravana Kannan).
- serialization of cpufreq governor callbacks to avoid race
conditions in some cases (Viresh Kumar).
- intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups (Doug Smythies, Prarit
Bhargava, Joe Konno).
- cpufreq driver (arm_big_little, cpufreq-dt, qoriq) updates (Sudeep
Holla, Felipe Balbi, Tang Yuantian).
- assorted cleanups in cpufreq drivers and core (Shailendra Verma,
Fabian Frederick, Wang Long).
- new Device Tree bindings for representing Operating Performance
Points (Viresh Kumar).
- updates for the common clock operations support code in the PM core
(Rajendra Nayak, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- PM domains core code update (Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Intel Knights Landing support for the RAPL (Running Average Power
Limit) power capping driver (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).
- fixes related to the floor frequency setting on Atom SoCs in the
RAPL power capping driver (Ajay Thomas).
- runtime PM framework documentation update (Ben Dooks).
- cpupower tool fix (Herton R Krzesinski)"

Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
"There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
collected into the 'x86/core' topic.
The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so
bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good -
but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive
dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the
end.
The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will
have fewer dependencies).
The main changes in this cycle were:
* x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas
Gleixner)
- This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
domains:
[IOAPIC domain] -----
|
[MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
| (optional) |
[HPET MSI domain] ----- |
|
[DMAR domain] -----------------------------
|
[Legacy domain] -----------------------------
This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear
separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
and the vector management.
- Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
injection into guests (Feng Wu)
* x86/asm changes:
- Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This
is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
Brian Gerst)
- Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)
- Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)
- NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/mm changes:
- Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)
- New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially
important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)
* x86/ras changes:
- Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)
This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data
which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to
take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
far as possible.
- Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-
wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj)
- Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/platform changes:
- Intel Atom SoC updates
... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the
shortlog and the Git log for details"

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel side changes mostly consist of work on x86 PMU drivers:
- x86 Intel PT (hardware CPU tracer) improvements (Alexander
Shishkin)
- x86 Intel CQM (cache quality monitoring) improvements (Thomas
Gleixner)
- x86 Intel PEBSv3 support (Peter Zijlstra)
- x86 Intel PEBS interrupt batching support for lower overhead
sampling (Zheng Yan, Kan Liang)
- x86 PMU scheduler fixes and improvements (Peter Zijlstra)
There's too many tooling improvements to list them all - here are a
few select highlights:
'perf bench':
- Introduce new 'perf bench futex' benchmark: 'wake-parallel', to
measure parallel waker threads generating contention for kernel
locks (hb->lock). (Davidlohr Bueso)
'perf top', 'perf report':
- Allow disabling/enabling events dynamicaly in 'perf top':
a 'perf top' session can instantly become a 'perf report'
one, i.e. going from dynamic analysis to a static one,
returning to a dynamic one is possible, to toogle the
modes, just press 'f' to 'freeze/unfreeze' the sampling. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Make Ctrl-C stop processing on TUI, allowing interrupting the load of big
perf.data files (Namhyung Kim)
'perf probe': (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Support glob wildcards for function name
- Support $params special probe argument: Collect all function arguments
- Make --line checks validate C-style function name.
- Add --no-inlines option to avoid searching inline functions
- Greatly speed up 'perf probe --list' by caching debuginfo.
- Improve --filter support for 'perf probe', allowing using its arguments
on other commands, as --add, --del, etc.
'perf sched':
- Add option in 'perf sched' to merge like comms to lat output (Josef Bacik)
Plus tons of infrastructure work - in particular preparation for
upcoming threaded perf report support, but also lots of other work -
and fixes and other improvements. See (much) more details in the
shortlog and in the git log"

Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Continued initialization/Kconfig updates: hide most Kconfig options
from unsuspecting users.
There's now a single high level configuration option:
*
* RCU Subsystem
*
Make expert-level adjustments to RCU configuration (RCU_EXPERT) [N/y/?] (NEW)
Which if answered in the negative, leaves us with a single
interactive configuration option:
Offload RCU callback processing from boot-selected CPUs (RCU_NOCB_CPU) [N/y/?] (NEW)
All the rest of the RCU options are configured automatically. Later
on we'll remove this single leftover configuration option as well.
- Remove all uses of RCU-protected array indexes: replace the
rcu_[access|dereference]_index_check() APIs with READ_ONCE() and
rcu_lockdep_assert()
- RCU CPU-hotplug cleanups

generating a keeping growing huge maps, perf will do infinite loop
during synthesizing. Nothing will be sampled.
This patch fixes this issue by adding per-thread timeout to force stop
this kind of endless proc map processing.
PERF_RECORD_MISC_PROC_MAP_PARSE_TIME_OUT is introduced to indicate that
the mmap record are truncated by time out. User will get warning
notification when truncated mmap records are detected.

When using a map file from a JIT, due to memory reuse, we can obtain
multiple symbols with the same start address but a different length.
The symbols__find does check for the end so not doing it in
sort__sym_cmp was causing the hist_entry in the annotate part of a
report to match to the wrong entry, causing a fatal error.

Be more explicit by changing the help line at the bottom of the screen

The 'f' hotkey is only used when in 'top', dynamic mode, to
enable/disable events, currently not making sense in the 'report',
static mode, where we can't go from showing the histogram entries
created from a perf.data file to adding more events after recreating the
evlist created from the perf.data file, albeit possible, this is not
implemented right now.

The thread-stack represents a thread's current stack. When a thread
exits there can still be many functions on the stack e.g. exit() can be
called many levels deep, so all the callers will never return. To get
that information output, the thread-stack must be flushed.
Previously it was assumed the thread-stack would be flushed when the
struct thread was deleted. With thread ref-counting it is no longer
clear when that will be, if ever. So instead explicitly flush all the
thread-stacks at the end of a session.

This patch changes the syscall handler to doom (tabort) active
transactions when a syscall is made and return very early without
performing the syscall and keeping side effects to a minimum (no CPU
accounting or system call tracing is performed). Also included is a
new HWCAP2 bit, PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC, to indicate this
behaviour to userspace.
Currently, the system call instruction automatically suspends an
active transaction which causes side effects to persist when an active
transaction fails.
This does change the kernel's behaviour, but in a way that was
documented as unsupported. It doesn't reduce functionality as
syscalls will still be performed after tsuspend; it just requires that
the transaction be explicitly suspended. It also provides a
consistent interface and makes the behaviour of user code
substantially the same across powerpc and platforms that do not
support suspended transactions (e.g. x86 and s390).
Performance measurements using
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c indicate the cost of
a normal (non-aborted) system call increases by about 0.25%.

In 0c4a5fc95b1df (Add leap-second timer edge testing to
leap-a-day.c), we added a timer to the test which checks to make
sure timers near the leapsecond edge behave correctly.
However, the output generated from the timer uses ctime_r, which
isn't async-signal safe, and should that signal land while the
main test is using ctime_r to print its output, its possible for
the test to deadlock on glibc internal locks.
Thus this patch reworks the output to avoid using ctime_r in
the signal handler.

Now it is possible to press CTRL+z at anytime and that will disable the
events being monitored, essentially turning 'top' into 'report', with
pressing CTRL+z again making it enable the events again, returning to
the 'top' behaviour, i.e. dynamic + decaying of older samples.
One may want, for instance, play with:
-d, --delay <n> number of seconds to delay between refreshes
and:
-z, --zero zero history across updates
Plus CTRL+z to see only the events since last zeroing, etc.

The problem seems to be a race condition, when the application has just
exited. Some/all fds associated with the perf-events (tracepoints) go
into a POLLHUP/ POLLERR state and the mmap region associated with those
events are unmapped (in perf_evlist__filter_pollfd()).
But we go back and do a perf_evlist__mmap_read() which assumes that the
mmaps are still valid and we hit the crash.
If the mapping for an event is released, its refcnt is 0 (and ->base
is NULL), so ensure we have non-zero refcount before accessing the map.
Note that perf-record has a similar logic but unlike perf-trace, the
record__mmap_read_all() checks the evlist->mmap[i].base before accessing
the map.

Speed up the "perf probe --list" by caching the last used debuginfo.
perf probe --list always open and load debuginfo for each entry of probe
list. This takes very a long time.
E.g. with vfs_* events (total 96 probes)
[root@localhost perf]# time ./perf probe -l &> /dev/null
real 0m25.376s
user 0m24.381s
sys 0m1.012s
To solve this issue, this adds debuginfo_cache to cache the
last used debuginfo on memory.
With this fix, the perf-probe --list significantly improves
its speed.

When the last part of converted events are blacklisted or out-of-text,
those are skipped and perf probe doesn't show usage examples. This
fixes it to show the example even if the last part of event list is
skipped.
E.g. without this patch, events are added, but suddenly end:
# perf probe vfs_*
vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it.
vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it.
Added new events:
probe:vfs_fallocate (on vfs_*)
probe:vfs_open (on vfs_*)
...
probe:vfs_dentry_acceptable (on vfs_*)
probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*)
#
With this fix:
# perf probe vfs_*
vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it.
vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it.
Added new events:
probe:vfs_fallocate (on vfs_*)
...
probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_load_quota_inode -aR sleep 1
Note that this can be reproduced ONLY IF the vfs_caches_init* is the
last part of matched symbol list. I've checked this happens on
"3.19.0-generic #18-Ubuntu" kernel binary.

Commit e3d09ec8126fe2c9a3ade661e2126e215ca27a80 ("tools lib traceevent:
Export dynamic symbols used by traceevent plugins") adds libtraceevent
dynamic list directly into LDFLAGS, which makes all targets depend on
that list through LDFLAGS.
This is not good since some of targets like libgtk.so doesn't use plugin
at all, but require the existance of that list because of linker
options.
This patch isolates the -Xlink option into LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC_LIST_LDFLAGS,
makes only perf and perf.so use it.

======= Memory map: ========
[SNIP]
The bug is in perf_event__attr_swap(). It swaps all fields in 'struct
perf_event_attr' without checking whether the swapped field exist or
not. In addition, in read_event_desc() allocs memory for attr according
to size read from perf.data.
Therefore, if the perf.data is collected by an old perf (without
aux_watermark, for example), when perf_event__attr_swap() swaping
attr->aux_watermark it destroy malloc's metadata.
This patch introduces boundary checking in perf_event__attr_swap(). It
adds macros bswap_field_64 and bswap_field_32 into
perf_event__attr_swap() to make it only swap exist fields.

Fix perf probe to return an error if no probe is added due to the given
probe point being on the blacklist.
To fix this problem, this moves the blacklist checking to right after
finding symbols/probe-points and marks them as skipped.
If all the symbols are skipped, "perf probe" returns an error as it
fails to find the corresponding probe address.
E.g. currently if a blacklisted probe is given:
# perf probe do_trap && echo 'succeed'
Added new event:
Warning: Skipped probing on blacklisted function: sync_regs
succeed
No! It must fail! With this patch, it correctly fails:
# perf probe do_trap && echo 'succeed'
do_trap is blacklisted function, skip it.
Probe point 'do_trap' not found.

change it easily in following patch.
Using alloc|realloc for static helpers, because thread_map__new is
already used in public interface.

Since commit 5e17b28f1e24 ("perf probe: Add --quiet option to
suppress output result message") have replaced printf with pr_info,
perf probe -l outputs its result in stderr. However, that is not
what the commit expected.
E.g.:
# perf probe -l > /dev/null
probe:vfs_read (on vfs_read@ksrc/linux-3/fs/read_write.c)
With this fix:
# perf probe -l > list
# cat list
probe:vfs_read (on vfs_read@ksrc/linux-3/fs/read_write.c)
Of course, --quiet(-q) still works on --add/--del.
# perf probe -q vfs_write
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_read (on vfs_read@ksrc/linux-3/fs/read_write.c)
probe:vfs_write (on vfs_write@ksrc/linux-3/fs/read_write.c)

This is caused by commit e3d09ec8126fe2c9a3ade661e2126e215ca27a80
("tools lib traceevent: Export dynamic symbols used by traceevent

Cut off the postfixes which gcc added for optimized routines from the
event name automatically generated from symbol name, since *probe-events
doesn't accept it. Those symbols will be used if we don't use debuginfo
to find target functions.
E.g. without this fix;
-----
# perf probe -va alloc_buf.isra.23
probe-definition(0): alloc_buf.isra.23
symbol:alloc_buf.isra.23 file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
[...]
Opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events write=1
Added new event:
Writing event: p:probe/alloc_buf.isra.23 _text+4869328
Failed to write event: Invalid argument
Error: Failed to add events. Reason: Invalid argument (Code: -22)
-----
With this fix;
-----
perf probe -va alloc_buf.isra.23
probe-definition(0): alloc_buf.isra.23
symbol:alloc_buf.isra.23 file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
[...]
Opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events write=1
Added new event:
Writing event: p:probe/alloc_buf _text+4869328
probe:alloc_buf (on alloc_buf.isra.23)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:alloc_buf -aR sleep 1

Prarit reported an issue w/ timers around the leapsecond, where a
timer set for Midnight UTC (00:00:00) might fire a second early right
before the leapsecond (23:59:60 - though it appears as a repeated
23:59:59) is applied.
So I've updated the leap-a-day.c test to integrate a similar test,
where we set a timer and check if it triggers at the right time, and
if the ntp state transition is managed properly.

perf stat ignores the unsupported event and continue to count supported
event. But if the unsupported event is group leader, perf tool will
crash. After applying this patch, the unsupported group leader will
error out immediately.
Without this patch:
$ perf stat -x, -e '{node-prefetch-refs,cycles}' -- sleep 1
perf: util/evsel.c:1009: get_group_fd: Assertion `!(fd == -1)' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
With this patch:
$ perf stat -x, -e '{node-prefetch-refs,cycles}' -- sleep 1
Error:
The node-prefetch-refs event is not supported.
Commiter note: Here I got a different output, but no core dump:
[acme@zoo linux]$ perf stat -x, -e '{node-prefetch-refs,cycles}' -- sleep 1
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument)

Because there's too many options and I cannot read, I frequently get

Use unique temporary files when copying to buildid dir to prevent races
in case multiple instances are trying to copy same file. This is done by
- creating template in form <path>/.<filename>.XXXXXX where the suffix is
used by mkstemp() to create unique file
- change file mode
- copy content
- if successful link temp file to target file
- unlink temp file
At this point the only file left at target path should be the desired
one either created by us or other instance if we raced. This should also
prevent not yet fully copied files to be visible to to other perf
instances that could try to parse them.
On top of that slow_copyfile no longer needs to deal with file mode when
creating file since temporary file is already created and mode is set.
Succesfully tested by myself by running perf record, archive and reading
the data on other system and by running perf buildid-cache on perf
binary itself. I also did revert fix from 0635b0f that to exposes
previously fixed race with EEXIST and recreator test passed sucessfully.
