perf tools: change event inheritance logic in stat and record
By default, event inheritance across fork and pthread_create was on but the -i
option of stat and record, which enabled inheritance, led to believe it was off
by default.
This patch fixes this logic by inverting the meaning of the -i option. By
default inheritance is on whether you attach to a process (-p), a thread (-t)
or start a process. If you pass -i, then you turn off inheritance. Turning off
inheritance if you don't need it, helps limit perf resource usage as well.
The patch also fixes perf stat -t xxxx and perf record -t xxxx which did not
start the counters.

perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to it
In
cbbc79a we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a
new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods
receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the
event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session.
While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be
better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"),
renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that
were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists
members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members.
Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol
name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them,
avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information.
The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we
may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for
instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what
characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.

perf: Provide a new deterministic events reordering algorithm
The current events reordering algorithm is based on a heuristic that
gets broken once we deal with a very fast flow of events.
Indeed the time period based flushing is not suitable anymore
in the following case, assuming we have a flush period of two
seconds.
CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
cnt1 timestamps | cnt1 timestamps
|
0 | 0
1 | 1
2 | 2
3 | 3
[...] | [...]
4 seconds later
If we spend too much time to read the buffers (case of a lot of
events to record in each buffers or when we have a lot of CPU buffers
to read), in the next pass the CPU 0 buffer could contain a slice
of several seconds of events. We'll read them all and notice we've
reached the period to flush. In the above example we flush the first
half of the CPU 0 buffer, then we read the CPU 1 buffer where we
have events that were on the flush slice and then the reordering
fails.
It's simple to reproduce with:
perf lock record perf bench sched messaging
To solve this, we use a new solution that doesn't rely on an
heuristical time slice period anymore but on a deterministic basis
based on how perf record does its job.
perf record saves the buffers through passes. A pass is a tour
on every buffers from every CPUs. This is made in order: for
each CPU we read the buffers of every counters. So the more
buffers we visit, the later will be the timstamps of their events.
When perf record finishes a pass it records a
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo event.
We record the max timestamp t found in the pass n. Assuming these
timestamps are monotonic across cpus, we know that if a buffer
still has events with timestamps below t, they will be all available
and then read in the pass n + 1.
Hence when we start to read the pass n + 2, we can safely flush every
events with timestamps below t.
============ PASS n =================
CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps
1 | 2
2 | 3
- | 4 <--- max recorded
============ PASS n + 1 ==============
CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps
3 | 5
4 | 6
5 | 7 <---- max recorded
Flush every events below timestamp 4
============ PASS n + 2 ==============
CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps
6 | 8
7 | 9
- | 10
Flush every events below timestamp 7
etc...
It also works on perf.data versions that don't have
PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo events. The difference is that
the events will be only flushed in the end of the perf.data
processing. It will then consume more memory and scale less with
large perf.data files.

Due to the fact that p4 counters are shared between HT threads
we synthetically divide the whole set of counters into two
non-intersected subsets. And while we're "borrowing" counters
from these subsets we should not be preempted (well, strictly
speaking in p4_hw_config we just pre-set reference to the
subset which allow to save some cycles in schedule routine
if it happens on the same cpu). So use get_cpu/put_cpu pair.
Also p4_pmu_schedule_events should use smp_processor_id rather
than raw_ version. This allow us to catch up preemption issue
(if there will ever be).

group to be scheduled in a single transaction. However, it
introduced a bug in handling events whose pmu does not implement
transactions -- at the end of scheduling in the events in the
group, in the non-transactional case the code now falls through
to the group_error label, and proceeds to unschedule all the
events in the group and return failure.
This fixes it by returning 0 (success) in the non-transactional
case.

Start group events scheduling transaction, set a flag to make
pmu::enable() not perform the schedulability test, it will be performed
at commit time.
->commit_txn:
Commit group events scheduling transaction, perform the group
schedulability as a whole
->cancel_txn:
Stop group events scheduling transaction, clear the flag so
pmu::enable() will perform the schedulability test.

perf, x86: Improve the PEBS ABI
Rename perf_event_attr::precise to perf_event_attr::precise_ip and
widen it to 2 bits. This new field describes the required precision of
the PERF_SAMPLE_IP field:
0 - SAMPLE_IP can have arbitrary skid
1 - SAMPLE_IP must have constant skid
2 - SAMPLE_IP requested to have 0 skid
3 - SAMPLE_IP must have 0 skid
And modify the Intel PEBS code accordingly. The PEBS implementation
now supports up to precise_ip == 2, where we perform the IP fixup.
Also s/PERF_RECORD_MISC_EXACT/&_IP/ to clarify its meaning, this bit
should be set for each PERF_SAMPLE_IP field known to match the actual
instruction triggering the event.
This new scheme allows for a PEBS mode that uses the buffer for more
than a single event.

perf: Annotate perf_event_read_group() vs perf_event_release_kernel()
Stephane reported a lockdep warning while using PERF_FORMAT_GROUP.
The issue is that perf_event_read_group() takes faults while holding
the ctx->mutex, while perf_event_release_kernel() can be called from
munmap(). Which makes for an AB-BA deadlock.
Except we can never establish the deadlock because we'll only ever
call perf_event_release_kernel() after all file descriptors are dead
so there is no concurrency possible.

any attributes correspondo to tracepoints.
Second, we really don't care about raw_samples per se - tracepoints

This problem is that find_keyring_by_name does not confirm that the keyring is
valid before accepting it.
Skipping keyrings that have been reduced to a zero count seems the way to go.
To this end, use atomic_inc_not_zero() to increment the usage count and skip
the candidate keyring if that returns false.
The following script _may_ cause the bug to happen, but there's no guarantee
as the window of opportunity is small:
#!/bin/sh
LOOP=100000
USER=dummy_user
/bin/su -c "exit;" $USER || { /usr/sbin/adduser -m $USER; add=1; }
for ((i=0; i<LOOP; i++))
do
/bin/su -c "echo '$i' > /dev/null" $USER
done
(( add == 1 )) && /usr/sbin/userdel -r $USER
exit
Note that the nominated user must not be in use.
An alternative way of testing this may be:
for ((i=0; i<100000; i++))
do
keyctl session foo /bin/true || break
done >&/dev/null
as that uses a keyring named "foo" rather than relying on the user and
user-session named keyrings.

ALSA: take tu->qlock with irqs disabled
We should disable irqs when we take the tu->qlock because it is used in
the irq handler. The only place that doesn't is
snd_timer_user_ccallback(). Most of the time snd_timer_user_ccallback()
is called with interrupts disabled but the the first ti->ccallback()
call in snd_timer_notify1() has interrupts enabled.
This was caught by lockdep which generates the following message:
