Check the argument name whether it is invalid (not C-like symbol name). This
makes event format simple.

Set "argN" name for each argument automatically if it has no specified name.
Since dynamic trace event(kprobe_events) accepts special characters for its
argument, its format can show those special characters (e.g. '$', '%', '+').
However, perf can't parse those format because of the character (especially
'%') mess up the format. This sets "argX" name for those arguments if user
omitted the argument names.
E.g.
# echo 'p do_fork %ax IP=%ip $stack' > tracing/kprobe_events
# cat tracing/kprobe_events
p:kprobes/p_do_fork_0 do_fork arg1=%ax IP=%ip arg3=$stack

Don't make argument names from raw parameters (means the parameters are written
in kprobe-tracer syntax), because the argument syntax may include special
characters. Just leave it, then kprobe-tracer gives a new name.

Fix a memory leak which happens when a field name conflicts with others. In
error case, free_trace_probe() will free all arguments until nr_args, so this
increments nr_args the begining of the loop instead of the end.

Reading the file set_ftrace_filter does three things.
1) shows whether or not filters are set for the function tracer
2) shows what functions are set for the function tracer
3) shows what triggers are set on any functions
3 is independent from 1 and 2.
The way this file currently works is that it is a state machine,
and as you read it, it may change state. But this assumption breaks
when you use lseek() on the file. The state machine gets out of sync
and the t_show() may use the wrong pointer and cause a kernel oops.
Luckily, this will only kill the app that does the lseek, but the app
dies while holding a mutex. This prevents anyone else from using the
set_ftrace_filter file (or any other function tracing file for that matter).
A real fix for this is to rewrite the code, but that is too much for
a -rc release or stable. This patch simply disables llseek on the
set_ftrace_filter() file for now, and we can do the proper fix for the
next major release.

Add a perf script which shows packets processing and processed
time. It helps us to investigate networking or network devices.
If you want to use it, install perf and record perf.data like
following.
If you set script, perf gathers records until it ends.
If not, you must Ctrl-C to stop recording.
And if you want a report from record,
If you use some options, you can limit the output.
Option is below.
tx: show only tx packets processing
rx: show only rx packets processing
dev=: show processing on this device
debug: work with debug mode. It shows buffer status.
For example, if you want to show received packets processing
associated with eth4,
106133.171439sec cpu=0
irq_entry(+0.000msec irq=24:eth4)
|
softirq_entry(+0.006msec)
|
|---netif_receive_skb(+0.010msec skb=f2d15900 len=100)
| |
| skb_copy_datagram_iovec(+0.039msec 10291::10291)
|
napi_poll_exit(+0.022msec eth4)
This perf script helps us to analyze the processing time of a
transmit/receive sequence.

This patch adds tracepoint to consume_skb and add trace_kfree_skb
before __kfree_skb in skb_free_datagram_locked and net_tx_action.
Combinating with tracepoint on dev_hard_start_xmit, we can check
how long it takes to free transmitted packets. And using it, we can
calculate how many packets driver had at that time. It is useful when
a drop of transmitted packet is a problem.

Add a tracepoint for tracing when softirq action is raised.
This and the existing tracepoints complete softirq's tracepoints:
softirq_raise, softirq_entry and softirq_exit.
And when this tracepoint is used in combination with
the softirq_entry tracepoint we can determine
the softirq raise latency.

When the PMU is enabled it is valid to have unhandled nmis, two
events could trigger 'simultaneously' raising two back-to-back
NMIs. If the first NMI handles both, the latter will be empty
and daze the CPU.
The solution to avoid an 'unknown nmi' massage in this case was
simply to stop the nmi handler chain when the PMU is enabled by
stating the nmi was handled. This has the drawback that a) we
can not detect unknown nmis anymore, and b) subsequent nmi
handlers are not called.
This patch addresses this. Now, we check this unknown NMI if it
could be a PMU back-to-back NMI. Otherwise we pass it and let
the kernel handle the unknown nmi.
This is a debug log:
cpu #6, nmi #32333, skip_nmi #32330, handled = 1, time = 1934364430
cpu #6, nmi #32334, skip_nmi #32330, handled = 1, time = 1934704616

Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 00 on CPU 6.

For back-to-back nmi detection there are the following rules:
The PMU nmi handler was handling more than one counter and no
counter was handled in the subsequent nmi (see [1] and [2]
above).
There is another case if there are two subsequent back-to-back
nmis [3]. The 2nd is detected as back-to-back because the first
handled more than one counter. If the second handles one counter
and the 3rd handles nothing, we drop the 3rd nmi because it
could be a back-to-back nmi.

During testing of a patch to stop having the perf subsytem
swallow nmis, it was uncovered that Nehalem boxes were randomly
getting unknown nmis when using the perf tool.
Moving the ack'ing of the PMI closer to when we get the status
allows the hardware to properly re-set the PMU bit signaling
another PMI was triggered during the processing of the first
PMI. This allows the new logic for dealing with the
shortcomings of multiple PMIs to handle the extra NMI by
'eat'ing it later.
Now one can wonder why are we getting a second PMI when we
disable all the PMUs in the begining of the NMI handler to
prevent such a case, for that I do not know. But I know the fix
below helps deal with this quirk.
Tested on multiple Nehalems where the problem was occuring.
With the patch, the code now loops a second time to handle the
second PMI (whereas before it was not).

While discussing the strictness of the 80 character limit on the
Kernel Summit Discussion mailing list, I showed examples that I
broke that limit slightly with some algorithms. In discussing with
John Linville, what looked better, I realized that two of the
80 char breaking culprits were an identical expression.
As a clean up, this patch moves the identical expression into its
own helper function and that is used instead. As a side effect,
the offending code is now under the 80 character limit. :-)
This clean up code also changes the expression from
(A - B) - C to A - (B + C)
This makes the code look a little nicer too.

During my rewrite, the semantics of touch_nmi_watchdog and
touch_softlockup_watchdog changed enough to break some drivers
(mostly over preemptable regions).
These are cases where long delays on one CPU (due to
print_delay for example) can cause long delays on other
CPUs - so we must 'touch' the nmi_watchdog flag of those
other CPUs as well.
This change brings those touch_*_watchdog() functions back in line
with to how they used to work.

predefined and others bits should be set to zero)
- INSTR_COMPLETED event (it is available on predefined cpu model only)
- Thread shared events (they should be guarded by "perf_event_paranoid"
sysctl due to security reason). The side effect of this action is
that PERF_COUNT_HW_BUS_CYCLES become a "paranoid" general event.

("cpu-hotplug: return better errno on cpu hotplug failure"),
the cpu notifier can return encapsulate errno value, resulting

When CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER is set and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is not, we
get the following error:
$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig arch/x86/Kconfig
warning: (IRQSOFF_TRACER && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET) selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && PROVE_LOCKING)
warning: (IRQSOFF_TRACER && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET) selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && PROVE_LOCKING)
This is because IRQSOFF_TRACER selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS but TRACE_IRQFLAGS
has PROVE_LOCKING as a dependency. This code is incorrect, and
this patch changes the TRACE_IRQFLAGS to be just a simple bool that
does not depend or select anything. Instead both IRQSOFF_TRACER and
PROVE_LOCKING select it.

Per-thread events with a cpu filter, i.e., cpu != -1, were not
reporting correct timings when the thread never ran on the
monitored cpu. The time enabled was reported as a negative
value.
This patch fixes the problem by updating tstamp_stopped,
tstamp_running in event_sched_out() for events with filters and
which are marked as INACTIVE.
The function group_sched_out() is modified to systematically
call into event_sched_out() to avoid duplicating the timing
adjustment code twice.
With the patch, I now get:
$ task_cpu -i -e unhalted_core_cycles,unhalted_core_cycles

Each histogram entry has a callchain root that stores the
callchain samples. However we forgot to initialize the
tracking of children hits of these roots, which then got
random values on their creation.
The root children hits is multiplied by the minimum percentage
of hits provided by the user, and the result becomes the minimum
hits expected from children branches. If the random value due
to the uninitialization is big enough, then this minimum number
of hits can be huge and eventually filter every children branches.
The end result was invisible callchains. All we need to
fix this is to initialize the children hits of the root.

When looking at a callchains enabled perf data file one can find it
tiresome to start with all callchains collapsed and then to have to go
one by one expanding them.
So associate 'E' with "Expand all callchains" and 'C' with "Collapse all
callchains".
This way now one can have the top level view and then switch to/from
having all callchains expanded.
More work is needed to allow expanding just from one branch down to its
leaves.

This patch fixes a crash during shutdown reported below. The crash is
caused by accessing already freed task structs. The fix changes the
order for registering and unregistering notifier callbacks.
All notifiers must be initialized before buffers start working. To
stop buffer synchronization we cancel all workqueues, unregister the
notifier callback and then flush all buffers. After all of this we
finally can free all tasks listed.
This should avoid accessing freed tasks.

The tlb flushing code uses the mm_users field of the mm_struct to
decide if each page table entry needs to be flushed individually with
IPTE or if a global flush for the mm_struct is sufficient after all page
table updates have been done. The comment for mm_users says "How many
users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it
found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process.
Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb
flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb
entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in
progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing
logic independent from the mm_users field.

This is based upon a report by Meelis Roos showing that it's possible
that we'll try to fetch a property that is 32K in size with some
devices. With the current fixed 3K buffer we use for moving data in
and out of the firmware during PROM calls, that simply won't work.
In fact, it will scramble random kernel data during bootup.
The reasoning behind the temporary buffer is entirely historical. It
used to be the case that we had problems referencing dynamic kernel
memory (including the stack) early in the boot process before we
explicitly told the firwmare to switch us over to the kernel trap
table.
So what we did was always give the firmware buffers that were locked
into the main kernel image.
But we no longer have problems like that, so get rid of all of this
indirect bounce buffering.
Besides fixing Meelis's bug, this also makes the kernel data about 3K
smaller.
It was also discovered during these conversions that the
implementation of prom_retain() was completely wrong, so that was
fixed here as well. Currently that interface is not in use.

As early setup calls down to slb_initialize(), we must have kstack
initialised before checking "should we add a bolted SLB entry for our kstack?"
Failing to do so means stack access requires an SLB miss exception to refill
an entry dynamically, if the stack isn't accessible via SLB(0) (kernel text
& static data). It's not always allowable to take such a miss, and
intermittent crashes will result.
Primary CPUs don't have this issue; an SLB entry is not bolted for their
stack anyway (as that lives within SLB(0)). This patch therefore only
affects the init of secondaries.
