2013-07-08perf tools: fix a typo of a Power7 event nameRunzhen Wang1-1/+1
In the Power7 PMU guide: https://www.power.org/documentation/commonly-used-metrics-for-performance-analysis/ PM_BRU_MPRED is referred to as PM_BR_MPRED. It fixed the typo by changing the name of the event in kernel and documentation accordingly. This patch changes the ABI, there are some reasons I think it's ok: - It is relatively new interface, specific to the Power7 platform. - No tools that we know of actually use this interface at this point (none are listed near the interface). - Users of this interface (eg oprofile users migrating to perf) would be more used to the "PM_BR_MPRED" rather than "PM_BRU_MPRED". - These are in the ABI/testing at this point rather than ABI/stable, so hoping we have some wiggle room.

Update imx-sdma driver to adopt generic DMA device tree bindings. It calls of_dma_controller_register() with imx-sdma specific of_dma_xlate to get the generic DMA device tree helper support. The #dma-cells for imx-sdma must be 3, which includes request ID, peripheral type and priority. The existing way of requesting channel, clients directly call dma_request_channel(), still work there, and will be removed after all imx-sdma clients get converted to generic DMA device tree helper.

It is no longer specific to pseries but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no hypervisor) by Gavin Shan. - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded processors). - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael Ellerman. This facility allows what is basically "userspace interrupts" for performance monitor events. - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs. Signals bug fixes and HW breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.

2013-07-03/dev/oldmem: Remove the interfaceZhang Yanfei1-2/+1
/dev/oldmem provides the interface for us to access the "old memory" in the dump-capture kernel. Unfortunately, no one actually uses this interface. And this interface could actually cause some real problems if used on ia64 where the cached/uncached accesses are mixed. See the discussion from the link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/12/386. So Eric suggested that we should remove /dev/oldmem as an unused piece of code. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: mention /dev/oldmem obsolescence in devices.txt] Suggested-by: "Eric W.
