Pull thermal fixes from Zhang Rui:
"Specifics:
- fix an issue in intel_powerclamp driver that idle injection target
is not accurately maintained on newer Intel CPUs. Package C8 to
C10 states are introduced on these CPUs but they were not included
in the package c-state residency calculation. From Jacob Pan.
- fix a problem that package c-state idle injection was missing on
Broadwell server, by adding its id to intel_powerclamp driver.
From Jacob Pan.

If we try to cross compile liblockdep, even if we set the CROSS_COMPILE variable
the linker error can occur because LD is not set with CROSS_COMPILE.
This patch adds "LD" can be set automatically with CROSS_COMPILE variable so

We currently fail to build on a non-multilib x86_64 target. We
print a helpful error, but it's nicer to allow the build to succeed.
Fix it and improve cross-compilation support by detecting
architecture support directly and building only the relevant tests.

Using uname with the processor flag option in some cases can yield 'unknown'
so lets use the machine flag option as it is deterministic. Add a dependency
for all_32 when building on a x86 64 bit host so that both bitnesses are

Since parse_perf_probe_point() deals with a user passed argument, we
should not assume it to be a valid string.
Without this patch, if pass '' to perf probe, a segfault raises:

The commit 512ae1bd6acb ("perf tools: Consolidate management of default
sort orders") changed default value of the 'sort_order' variable to NULL
indicating that users don't set any sort keys on the command line.
However it missed to update a check in perf_evlist__tty_browse_hists()
so that 'perf report -T' cannot show the per-thread values after the
normal output. This patch fixes it to work again.
Note that the -T option only works on --stdio and neither --sort nor
--parent option was given.

This reverts commit feba40362b11341bee6d8ed58d54b896abbd9f84.
Although the principle of this change is good, the implementation has a
few issues.
Firstly we can sometimes fail to abort a syscall because r12 may have
been clobbered by C code if we went down the virtual CPU accounting
path, or if syscall tracing was enabled.
Secondly we have decided that it is safer to abort the syscall even
earlier in the syscall entry path, so that we avoid the syscall tracing
path when we are transactional.
So that we have time to thoroughly test those changes we have decided to
revert this for this merge window and will merge the fixed version in
the next window.
NB. Rather than reverting the selftest we just drop tm-syscall from
TEST_PROGS so that it's not run by default.
Fixes: feba40362b11 ("powerpc/tm: Abort syscalls in active transactions")

This patch fixes the race in the beginning of benchmark run when some
threads hasn't got assigned curr_cpu yet so they don't occur in
nodes-of-process stats and benchmark concludes that all remaining
threads are converged already.
The race can be reproduced with small amount of threads and some bigger
amount of shared process memory, e.g. one process, two threads and 5GB
of process memory.

The futex-requeue benchmark can hang because of missing wakeups once the
benchmark is done, ie:
[Run 1]: Requeued 1024 of 1024 threads in 0.3290 ms
perf: couldn't wakeup all tasks (135/1024)
This bug, while perhaps suggesting missing wakeups in kernel futex code,
is merely a consequence of the crappy FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE man page,
incorrectly mentioning that the number of requeued tasks is in fact
returned, not the wakeups.
This patch acknowledges this and updates the corresponding futex_wake
code around it.

There are missing curly braces which causes find_variable() return wrong
value when probing with global variables.
This problem can be reproduced as following:
$ perf probe -v --add='generic_perform_write global_variable_for_test'
...
Try to find probe point from debuginfo.
Probe point found: generic_perform_write+0
Searching 'global_variable_for_test' variable in context.
An error occurred in debuginfo analysis (-2).
Error: Failed to add events. Reason: No such file or directory (Code: -2)
After this patch:
$ perf probe -v --add='generic_perform_write global_variable_for_test'
...
Converting variable global_variable_for_test into trace event.
global_variable_for_test type is int.
Found 1 probe_trace_events.
Opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events write=1
Added new event:
Writing event: p:probe/generic_perform_write _stext+1237464
global_variable_for_test=@global_variable_for_test+0:s32
probe:generic_perform_write (on generic_perform_write with
global_variable_for_test)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:generic_perform_write -aR sleep 1

Perf top raise a warning if a kernel sample is collected but kernel map
is restricted. The warning message needs to dereference al.map->dso...
However, previous perf_event__preprocess_sample() doesn't always
guarantee al.map != NULL, for example, when kernel map is restricted.
This patch validates al.map before dereferencing, avoid the segfault.

We were not checking in the inner event processing loop if the forked workload
had finished, which, on a busy system, may make it take a long time trying to
drain events, entering a seemingly neverending loop, waiting for the system to
get idle enough to make it drain the buffers.
Fix it by disabling the events when 'done' is true, in the inner loop, to start
draining what is in the buffers.

commit f7aa222ff397
Author: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
Date: Tue Feb 3 13:25:39 2015 -0300
perf trace: No need to enable evsels for workload started from perf
The assumption was that whenever a workload is specified, the
attr.enable_on_exec evsel flag would be set, but that is not happening
when perf_record_opts.system_wide is set, for instance
That resulted in both perf_evlist__enable() and attr.enable_on_exec
being not called/set, which made the events to remain disabled while the
workload runs, producing no output.
Fix it, by calling perf_evlist__enable() in the 'trace' tool
when forking and not targetting a workload started from trace
v2: Test against !target__none(), as suggested by Namhyung Kim, that is
what is used in perf_evsel__config() when deciding if the
attr.enable_on_exec flag to be set. More work is needed to cover other
cases such as opts->initial_delay.

While not yet documented in the Software Developer's Manual,
the data-sheet for modern Xeon states that DRAM RAPL ENERGY units
are fixed at 15.3 uJ, rather than being discovered via MSR.
Before this patch, DRAM energy on these products is over-stated by turbostat
because the RAPL units are 4x larger.

O= option in Makefile
Since commit ee0778a30153
("tools/power: turbostat: make Makefile a bit more capable")
turbostat's Makefile is using
[...]
BUILD_OUTPUT := $(PWD)
[...]
which obviously causes trouble when building "turbostat" with
make -C /usr/src/linux/tools/power/x86/turbostat ARCH=x86 turbostat
because GNU make does not update nor guarantee that $PWD is set.
This patch changes the Makefile to use $CURDIR instead, which GNU make
guarantees to set and update (i.e. when using "make -C ...") and also
adds support for the O= option (see "make help" in your root of your
kernel source tree for more details).

If turbosat is run as root on those systems, and discovers

including one stable-candidate fix for an issue occasionally
occuring on 64-bit machines running 32-bit kernels where using
offsets provided by the firmware may lead to address overflows (Lv
Zheng).

libpci 3.3.0 introduced an additional member in the pci_filter struct
which needs to be initialized to -1 to get the same behavior as before
the API change. The libpci internal helpers got updated accordingly,
but as the cpupower pci helpers initialized the struct themselves the
behavior changed.
Use the libpci helper pci_filter_init() to fix this and guard against
similar breakages in the future.

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Core kernel changes:
- One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability
to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed
by the kernel) to kprobes.
This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image
that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively.
(Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might
allow unprivileged use as well.)
(Alexei Starovoitov)
- Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this
allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock
sources for event timestamps traced via perf.
This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated
events with external events that were measured with different
clocks:
- cluster wide profiling
- for system wide tracing with user-space events,
- JIT profiling events
etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via
the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al.
(Peter Zijlstra)
Hardware enablement kernel changes:
- x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer
on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs.
The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space
ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added
to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the
necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous.
This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result.
A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT
driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU.
More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well -
will probably be ready by 4.2.
(Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra)
- x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware
feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and
allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads.
These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU
driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The
partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged
as a cgroup extension.)
(Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P
Waskiewicz Jr)
- x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell
feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus
tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it
via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option:
perf record --call-graph lbr
perf report
or:
perf top --call-graph lbr
This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf
based unwinding, but has some limitations:
- It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and
branch record can not be enabled at the same time.
- It is only available for user-space callchains.
(Yan, Zheng)
- x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and
event table fixes for earlier models.
(Andi Kleen)
- x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex
CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter
value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and
is transparent.
(Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian)
The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so
I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to
the tooling changes outlined above:
User visible changes affecting all tools:
- Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa)
- Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song)
- Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa)
- Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song)
- Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
User visible changes in individual tools:
'perf data':
New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially
for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa,
Sebastian Siewior)
'perf diff':
Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern)
'perf list':
Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song)
Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song)
'perf kmem':
Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa)
Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim)
Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim)
Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim)
'perf probe':
Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu)
Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu)
Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu)
'perf record':
Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra)
Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen)
'perf sched':
Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song)
'perf report' and 'perf top':
Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the
TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern)
Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one
cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT
events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
'perf stat':
Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose)
Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen)
'perf trace':
Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
There's also been a ton of infrastructure work done, such as the
split-out of perf's build system into tools/build/ and other changes -
