Some are weak functions, others are just markers, etc. They get in the rb tree
with the same addr, so we need to look around to find the symbol with the same
name.
We were looking just at the previous entries with the same addr, look forward
too.

For kallsyms we don't have the symbol address end, so we do an extra pass and
set the symbol end addr as being the start of the next minus one.
But this was being done just after we filtered the symbols of a
particular type (functions, variables), so the symbol end was sometimes
after what it really is.
Fixing up symbol end also was falling apart when we have symbol aliases,
then the end address of all but the last alias was being set to be
before its start.
Fix it up by checking for symbol aliases and making the kallsyms__parse
routine use the next symbol, whatever its type, as the limit for the
previous symbol, passing that end address to the callback.
This was detected by the 'perf test' synthetic paranoid regression
tests, fix it up so that even that case doesn't mislead us.

The x86 arch has shifted its use of the nmi_watchdog from a
local implementation to the global one provide by
kernel/watchdog.c. This shift has caused a whole bunch of
compile problems under different config options. I attempt to
simplify things with the patch below.
In order to simplify things, I had to come to terms with the
meaning of two terms ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. Basically they mean the same thing,
the former on a local level and the latter on a global level.
With the old x86 nmi watchdog gone, there is no need to rely on
defining the ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG variable because it doesn't
make sense any more. x86 will now use the global
implementation.
The changes below do a few things. First it changes the few
places that relied on ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG to use
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC (the former was an alias for the latter
anyway, so nothing unusual here). Those pieces of code were
relying more on local apic functionality the nmi watchdog
functionality, so the change should make sense.
Second, I removed the x86 implementation of
touch_nmi_watchdog(). It isn't need now, instead x86 will rely
on kernel/watchdog.c's implementation.
Third, I removed the #define ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG itself from
x86. And tweaked the include/linux/nmi.h file to tell users to
look for an externally defined touch_nmi_watchdog in the case of
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _or_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. This
changes removes some of the ugliness in that file.
Finally, I added a Kconfig dependency for
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR that said you can't have
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _and_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. You can
only have one nmi_watchdog.
Tested with
ARCH=i386: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig, (various broken
configs) ARCH=x86_64: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig,
(various broken configs)
Hopefully, after this patch I won't get any more compile broken
emails. :-)
v3:
changed a couple of 'linux/nmi.h' -> 'asm/nmi.h' to pick-up correct function
prototypes when CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is not set.

Currently perf probe doesn't handle those incorrect syntaxes:
$ perf probe -L sched.c:++13
$ perf probe -L sched.c:-+13
$ perf probe -L sched.c:10000000000000000000000000000+13
This patches rewrites parse_line_range_desc() to handle them.
As a bonus, it reports more useful error messages instead of: "Tailing

When listing a whole file or a function which is located at the end,
perf-probe -L output wrongly: "Source file is shorter than expected.".
This is because show_one_line() always consider EOF as an error.
This patch fixes this by not considering EOF as an error when dumping
the trailing lines. Otherwise it's still an error and perf-probe still
outputs its warning.

The actual file used by 'perf probe -L sched.c' is reported in the ouput
of the command.
But it's simply displayed as it has been given to the command (simply
sched.c) which is too ambiguous to be really usefull since several
sched.c files can be found into the same project and we also don't know
which search path has been used.

The symfs argument allows analysis of perf.data file using a locally accessible
filesystem tree with debug symbols - e.g., tree created during image builds,
sshfs mount, loop mounted KVM disk images, USB keys, initrds, etc. Anything
with an OS tree can be analyzed from anywhere without the need to populate a
local data store with build-ids.
Commiter notes:
o Fixed up symfs="/" variants handling.
o prefixed DSO__ORIG_GUEST_KMODULE case with symfs too, avoiding use of files
outside the symfs directory.

This patch changes perf report to ask for the ID info on all events be
default if recording from multiple CPUs.
Perf report, annotate and diff will now process the events in order if
the kernel is able to provide timestamps on all events. This ensures
that events such as COMM and MMAP which are necessary to correctly
interpret samples are processed prior to those samples so that they are
attributed correctly.

If we are running the new perf on an old kernel without support for
sample_id_all, we should fall back to the old unordered processing of
events. If we didn't than we would *always* process events without
timestamps out of order, whether or not we hit a reordering race. In
other words, instead of there being a chance of not attributing samples
correctly, we would guarantee that samples would not be attributed.
While processing all events without timestamps before events with
timestamps may seem like an intuitive solution, it falls down as
PERF_RECORD_EXIT events would also be processed before any samples.
Even with a workaround for that case, samples before/after an exec would
not be attributed correctly.
This patch allows commands to indicate whether they need to fall back to
unordered processing, so that commands that do not care about timestamps
on every event will not be affected. If we do fallback, this will print
out a warning if report -D was invoked.
This patch adds the test in perf_session__new so that we only need to
test once per session. Commands that do not use an event_ops (such as
record and top) can simply pass NULL in it's place.

The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom
of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of
the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI
"return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting
the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs
for r0.
However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks,
since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly
handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat
address space. Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional
random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register.
Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register"
hack in sigreturn. We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly
code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code. We extend that
code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions
after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0.
Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the
pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded.

Previously we were just setting up the "tp" register in the
new task as started by clone() in libc. However, this is not
quite right, since in principle a signal might be delivered to
the new task before it had its TLS set up. (Of course, this race
window still exists for resetting the libc getpid() cached value
in the new task, in principle. But in any case, we are now doing
this exactly the way all other architectures do it.)
This change is important for 2.6.37 since the tile glibc we will
be submitting upstream will not set TLS in user space any more,
so it will only work on a kernel that has this fix. It should
also be taken for 2.6.36.x in the stable tree if possible.

The initial values of the registers 0x01 and 0x17 are taken from the sensor
table at capture start and updated according to the flag PDN_INV.
Their values are updated at each step of the capture initialization and
memorized for reuse in capture stop.
This patch also fixed automatically some bad hardcoded values of these
registers.

The flag PDN_INV indicates that the sensor pin S_PWR_DN has not the same
value as other webcams with the same sensor. For now, only two webcams have
been so detected: the Microsoft's VX1000 and VX3000.

After Mauro's "bttv: Fix locking issues due to BKL removal code" there
are a number of comments that are no longer needed about lock ordering.
Remove them.

Fix a regression where bttv driver causes oopses when loading, since it
were using some non-initialized mutexes. While it would be possible to
fix the issue, there are some other lock troubles, like to the presence of
lock code at free_btres_lock().
It is possible to fix, but the better is to just use the core-assisted
locking schema. This way, V4L2 core will serialize access to all
ioctl's/open/close/mmap/read/poll operations, avoiding to have two
processes accessing the hardware at the same time. Also, as there's just
one lock, instead of 3, there's no risk of dead locks.
The net result is a cleaner code, with just one lock.

This prevents allocation of the last 2MB before 4GB.
The experiment described here shows Windows 7 ignoring the last 1MB:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23542#c27
This patch ignores the top 2MB instead of just 1MB because H. Peter Anvin
says "There will be ROM at the top of the 32-bit address space; it's a fact
of the architecture, and on at least older systems it was common to have a
shadow 1 MiB below."
