2011-12-21convert 'memory' sysdev_class to a regular subsystemKay Sievers2-5/+4
This moves the 'memory sysdev_class' over to a regular 'memory' subsystem and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are implemented as subsystem interfaces now. After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

2011-12-21cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class to a regular subsystemKay Sievers1-9/+9
This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are implemented as subsystem interfaces now. After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel. Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

2011-12-21PM: Drop generic_subsys_pm_opsRafael J. Wysocki1-13/+0
Since the PM core is now going to execute driver callbacks directly if the corresponding subsystem callbacks are not present, forward-only subsystem callbacks (i.e. such that only execute the corresponding driver callbacks) are not necessary any more. Thus it is possible to remove generic_subsys_pm_ops, because the only callback in there that is not forward-only, .runtime_idle, is not really used by the only user of generic_subsys_pm_ops, which is vio_bus_type. However, the generic callback routines themselves cannot be removed from generic_ops.c, because they are used individually by a number of subsystems. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

2011-12-21ftrace: Allow access to the boot time function enablingSteven Rostedt1-0/+3
Change set_ftrace_early_filter() to ftrace_set_early_filter() and make it a global function. This will allow other subsystems in the kernel to be able to enable function tracing at start up and reuse the ftrace function parsing code. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-12-21ftrace: Decouple hash items from showing filtered functionsSteven Rostedt1-2/+3
The set_ftrace_filter shows "hashed" functions, which are functions that are added with operations to them (like traceon and traceoff). As other subsystems may be able to show what functions they are using for function tracing, the hash items should no longer be shown just because the FILTER flag is set. As they have nothing to do with other subsystems filters. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-12-21ftrace: Allow other users of function tracing to use the output listingSteven Rostedt1-0/+35
The function tracer is set up to allow any other subsystem (like perf) to use it. Ftrace already has a way to list what functions are enabled by the global_ops. It would be very helpful to let other users of the function tracer to be able to use the same code. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-12-21ftrace: Replace record newlist with record page listSteven Rostedt1-4/+1
As new functions come in to be initalized from mcount to nop, they are done by groups of pages. Whether it is the core kernel or a module. There's no need to keep track of these on a per record basis. At startup, and as any module is loaded, the functions to be traced are stored in a group of pages and added to the function list at the end. We just need to keep a pointer to the first page of the list that was added, and use that to know where to start on the list for initializing functions. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-12-21ftrace: Remove usage of "freed" recordsSteven Rostedt1-1/+0
Records that are added to the function trace table are permanently there, except for modules. By separating out the modules to their own pages that can be freed in one shot we can remove the "freed" flag and simplify some of the record management. Another benefit of doing this is that we can also move the records around; sort them. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-12-21ftrace: Allow archs to modify code without stop machineSteven Rostedt1-0/+31
The stop machine method to modify all functions in the kernel (some 20,000 of them) is the safest way to do so across all archs. But some archs may not need this big hammer approach to modify code on SMP machines, and can simply just update the code it needs. Adding a weak function arch_ftrace_update_code() that now does the stop machine, will also let any arch override this method. If the arch needs to check the system and then decide if it can avoid stop machine, it can still call ftrace_run_stop_machine() to use the old method. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-12-21ftrace: Do not function trace inlined functionsSteven Rostedt1-0/+5
When gcc inlines a function, it does not mark it with the mcount prologue, which in turn means that inlined functions are not traced by the function tracer. But if CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set, then gcc is allowed not to inline a function that is marked inline. Depending on the options and the compiler, a function may or may not be traced by the function tracer, depending on whether gcc decides to inline a function or not. This has caused several problems in the pass becaues gcc is not always consistent with what it decides to inline between different gcc versions. Some places should not be traced (like paravirt native_* functions) and these are mostly marked as inline. When gcc decides not to inline the function, and if that function should not be traced, then the ftrace function tracer will suddenly break when it use to work fine. This becomes even harder to debug when different versions of gcc will not inline that function, making the same kernel and config work for some gcc versions and not work for others. By making all functions marked inline to not be traced will remove the ambiguity that gcc adds when it comes to tracing functions marked inline. All gcc versions will be consistent with what functions are traced and having volatile working code will be removed. Note, only the inline macro when CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set needs to have notrace added, as the attribute __always_inline will force the function to be inlined and then not traced.

2011-12-21perf events: Add PERF_COUNT_HW_REF_CPU_CYCLES generic PMU eventStephane Eranian1-0/+1
This event counts the number of reference core cpu cycles. Reference means that the event increments at a constant rate which is not subject to core CPU frequency adjustments. The event may not count when the processor is in halted (low power) state. As such, it may not be equivalent to wall clock time. However, when the processor is not halted state, the event keeps a constant correlation with wall clock time.

It's a years long problem that a large number of short-lived dirtiers (eg. gcc instances in a fast kernel build) may starve long-run dirtiers (eg. dd) as well as pushing the dirty pages to the global hard limit. The solution is to charge the pages dirtied by the exited gcc to the other random dirtying tasks. It sounds not perfect, however should behave good enough in practice, seeing as that throttled tasks aren't actually running so those that are running are more likely to pick it up and get throttled, therefore promoting an equal spread.
