2015-03-04Merge tag 'alternatives_padding' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bp/bp into x86/asmIngo Molnar1-62/+66
Pull alternative instructions framework improvements from Borislav Petkov: "A more involved rework of the alternatives framework to be able to pad instructions and thus make using the alternatives macros more straightforward and without having to figure out old and new instruction sizes but have the toolchain figure that out for us. Furthermore, it optimizes JMPs used so that fetch and decode can be relieved with smaller versions of the JMPs, where possible. Some stats: x86_64 defconfig: Alternatives sites total: 2478 Total padding added (in Bytes): 6051 The padding is currently done for: X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS X86_FEATURE_ERMS X86_FEATURE_LFENCE_RDTSC X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC X86_FEATURE_SMAP This is with the latest version of the patchset. Of course, on each machine the alternatives sites actually being patched are a proper subset of the total number." Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

In commit a21b0b354d4a ('perf: Introduce a flag to enable close-on-exec in perf_event_open()'), flag PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC was added to perf_event_open(2) syscall to allows userspace to atomically enable close-on-exec behavor when creating the file descriptor.

2013-07-22perf bench: Fix memcpy benchmark for large sizesAndi Kleen1-0/+2
The glibc calloc() function has an optimization to not explicitely memset() very large calloc allocations that just came from mmap(), because they are known to be zero. This could result in the perf memcpy benchmark reading only from the zero page, which gives unrealistic results. Always call memset explicitly on the source area to avoid this problem.

2012-09-11perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variablesIrina Tirdea1-1/+1
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking unused variables. The variable __used is defined to __attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to __attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored __unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition. If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name in its headers. The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android. This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with __maybe_unused.

2012-07-02perf bench: Fix confused variable namings and descriptions in mem subsystemHitoshi Mitake1-40/+40
As Namhyung Kim pointed, there are confused namings and descriptions of words "cycle" and "clock" in mem-memset.c and mem-memcpy.c. With the option "-c" (or "--clock", now renamed as "--cycle"), mem subsystem measures cost of memset() and memcpy() with cpu-cycles event. But current mem subsystem source code contains lots of confused variable namings and descriptions with "clock" (e.g. the variable use_clock). This is a very bad style because there is another software event named "cpu-clock". This patch replaces wrong usage of "clock" to "cycle". v2: modified Documentation/perf-bench.txt for the descriptions of --cycle option Signed-off-by: Hitoshi Mitake <h.mitake@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1341236777-18457-1-git-send-email-h.mitake@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2010-04-14perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR()Ian Munsie1-1/+1
Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool and would therefore print out the usage information and terminate. This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is currently the only such example of this). I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints. The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN. Signed-off-by: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au.ibm.com> Acked-by: David S.

mem-memcpy.c uses perf event system calls to obtain CPU clocks. And it suddenly dies with BUG_ON() when it running on Linux doesn't support perf event.
