perf tools: Fix the bash completion problem of 'perf --*'
The perf-completion.sh uses a predefined string '--help --version
--exec-path --html-path --paginate --no-pager --perf-dir --work-tree
--debugfs-dir' for the bash completion of 'perf --*', which has two
problems:
Problem 1: If the options of perf are changed (see handle_options() in
perf.c), the perf-completion.sh has to be changed at the same time. If
not, the bash completion of 'perf --*' and the options which perf
really supports will be inconsistent.
Problem 2: When typing another single character after 'perf --', e.g.
'h', and hit TAB key to get the bash completion of 'perf --h', the
character 'h' disappears at once. This is not what we want, we wish the
bash completion can return '--help --html-path' and then we can
continue to choose one.
To solve this problem, we add '--list-opts' to perf, which now supports
'perf --list-opts' directly, and its result can be used in bash
completion now.
Example:
Before this patch:
$ perf --h <-- hit TAB key after character 'h'
$ perf -- <-- 'h' disappears and no required result
After this patch:
$ perf --h <-- hit TAB key after character 'h'
--help --html-path <-- the required result

perf diff: Support for different binaries
Currently, the perf diff only works with same binaries. That's because
it compares the symbol start address. It doesn't work if the perf.data
comes from different binaries. This patch matches the symbol names.
Actually, perf diff once intended to compare the symbol names. The
commit as below can look for a pair by name.
604c5c92972d (perf diff: Change the default sort order to "dso,symbol")
However, at that time, perf diff used a global list of dsos. That means
the binaries which has same name can only be loaded once. That's a
problem for comparing different binaries.
For example, we have an old binary and an updated binary. They very
likely have same name and most of the functions, so only dsos from old
binary will be loaded. When processing the data from updated binary,
perf still use the symbol information from old binary. That's wrong.
Then the commit as below used IP to replace symbol name.
9c443dfdd31e ("perf diff: Fix support for all --sort combinations")
>From that time, perf diff starts to compare the symbol address.
The global dsos is discarded from a patch in 2010.
a1645ce12adb ("perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance
from host")
However, at that time, perf diff already compared by address. So perf
diff cannot work for different binaries as well.
This patch actually rolls back the perf diff to original design. The
document is also changed, so everybody knows the original design is to
compare the symbol names.
Here are some examples:
The only difference between example_v1.c and example_v2.c is the
location of f2 and f3. There is no change in behavior, but the previous
perf diff display the wrong differential profile.

perf buildid-cache: Add new buildid cache if update target is not cached
Add new buildid cache if the update target file is not cached.
This can happen when an old binary is replaced by new one after caching
the old one. In this case, user sees his operation just failed.
But it does not look straight, since user just pass the binary "path",
not "build-id".

the PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag the probe fails with EINVAL. Since this
errno is not handled pid is not reset to 0 and the subsequent use of
pid = -1 as an argument brings in an additional failure path if
perf_event_paranoid > 0:

The following members to the ctf-environment were decided to be added to
distinguish and specify perf CTF data:
- domain
It says "kernel" because it contains a kernel trace (not to be
confused with a user space like lttng-ust does)
- tracer_name
It says perf. This can be used to distinguish between lttng and perf
CTF based trace.
- version
The kernel version from stream. In addition to release, this is what
it looks like on a Debian kernel:
release = "3.14-1-amd64";
version = "3.14.0";

perf record: Support recording running/enabled time
Add an option to perf record to record running/enabled time for read
events, similar to what stat does.
This is useful to understand multiplexing problems.
Right now the report support is not great, but at least report -D
already supports it.

Linux 4.0-rc1
.. after extensive statistical analysis of my G+ polling, I've come to
the inescapable conclusion that internet polls are bad.
Big surprise.
But "Hurr durr I'ma sheep" trounced "I like online polls" by a 62-to-38%
margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in.
Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who
can't even follow the most basic directions?
In contrast, "v4.0" beat out "v3.20" by a slimmer margin of 56-to-44%,
but with a total of 29,110 votes right now.
Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less
than the almost six thousand votes that the "please ignore" poll got, so
it could be considered noise.
But hey, I asked, so I'll honor the votes.

trylock_super(): replacement for grab_super_passive()
I've noticed significant locking contention in memory reclaimer around
sb_lock inside grab_super_passive(). Grab_super_passive() is called from
two places: in icache/dcache shrinkers (function super_cache_scan) and
from writeback (function __writeback_inodes_wb). Both are required for
progress in memory allocator.
Grab_super_passive() acquires sb_lock to increment sb->s_count and check
sb->s_instances. It seems sb->s_umount locked for read is enough here:
super-block deactivation always runs under sb->s_umount locked for write.
Protecting super-block itself isn't a problem: in super_cache_scan() sb
is protected by shrinker_rwsem: it cannot be freed if its slab shrinkers
are still active. Inside writeback super-block comes from inode from bdi
writeback list under wb->list_lock.
This patch removes locking sb_lock and checks s_instances under s_umount:
generic_shutdown_super() unlinks it under sb->s_umount locked for write.
New variant is called trylock_super() and since it only locks semaphore,
callers must call up_read(&sb->s_umount) instead of drop_super(sb) when
they're done.

VFS: (Scripted) Convert S_ISLNK/DIR/REG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_*(dentry)
Convert the following where appropriate:
(1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).
(2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).
(3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more
complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in
question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
a ->d_automount op.
In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).
Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.
However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.
There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.

"These are mostly fixes on top of the previously merged recent PM and
ACPI material.
First, one commit that broke the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem)
driver on a Dell box is reverted and there are two stable-candidate
fixes for that driver. Another fix cleans up two recently added ACPI
EC messages that look odd and the printk level of a noisy debug
message in the core ACPI resources handling code is reduced.
In addition to that we have two stable-candidate fixes for the s3c
cpufreq driver, two cpuidle powernv driver updates related to Device
Trees and a PNP subsystem cleanup that will allow us to get rid of
some old ugliness going forward. Also there is a new blacklist entry
for the ACPI backlight code.
Specifics:
- Revert a recent ACPI LPSS driver commit that prevented the touchpad
driver from loading on Dell XPS13 (Jarkko Nikula).
- Make the ACPI LPSS driver disable the I2C controllers and deassert
SPI host controllers resets at startup on Intel BayTrail and
Braswell SoCs in case they have been left in wrong states by the
platform firmware which then may casuse fatal controller driver
failures during resume from hibernation (Mika Westerberg).
- Make two recently added ACPI EC messages look better (Scot Doyle).
- Reduce the printk level of a recently added debug message related
to ACPI resources that may become noisy in some cases (Rafael J
Wysocki).
- Add a new ACPI backlight blacklist entry for Samsung Series 9
(900X3C/900X3D/900X3E/900X4C/900X4D) laptops where the native
backlight interface doesn't work while the ACPI based one does
(Jens Reyer).
- Make the PNP sybsystem's core code use __request_region() followed
by __release_region() instead of __check_region() which then will
allow us to get rid of the latter as it has no more users (Jakub
Sitnicki).
- Fix a build breakage and an issue with two __init functions that
may be called after initialization in the s3c cpufreq driver (Arnd
Bergmann).
- Make the powernv cpuidle driver read target_residency values for
idle states from a Device Tree (as we have the suitable DT bindings

Additionally the framework core underwent a bit of surgery with two

- The boundary between the clock core and clock providers (e.g clock
drivers) is now more well defined with dedicated provider helper
functions. struct clk no longer maps 1:1 with the hardware clock
but is a true per-user cookie which helps us tracker users of
hardware clocks and debug bad behavior.
- The addition of rate constraints for clocks. Rate ranges are now
supported which are analogous to the voltage ranges in the
regulator framework.
Unfortunately these changes to the core created some breakeage. We

kernel: make READ_ONCE() valid on const arguments
The use of READ_ONCE() causes lots of warnings witht he pending paravirt
spinlock fixes, because those ends up having passing a member to a
'const' structure to READ_ONCE().
There should certainly be nothing wrong with using READ_ONCE() with a
const source, but the helper function __read_once_size() would cause
warnings because it would drop the 'const' qualifier, but also because
the destination would be marked 'const' too due to the use of 'typeof'.
Use a union of types in READ_ONCE() to avoid this issue.
Also make sure to use parenthesis around the macro arguments to avoid
possible operator precedence issues.

kprobes/x86: Use 5-byte NOP when the code might be modified by ftrace
can_probe() checks if the given address points to the beginning
of an instruction. It analyzes all the instructions from the
beginning of the function until the given address. The code
might be modified by another Kprobe. In this case, the current
code is read into a buffer, int3 breakpoint is replaced by the
saved opcode in the buffer, and can_probe() analyzes the buffer
instead.
There is a bug that __recover_probed_insn() tries to restore
the original code even for Kprobes using the ftrace framework.
But in this case, the opcode is not stored. See the difference
between arch_prepare_kprobe() and arch_prepare_kprobe_ftrace().
The opcode is stored by arch_copy_kprobe() only from
arch_prepare_kprobe().
This patch makes Kprobe to use the ideal 5-byte NOP when the
code can be modified by ftrace. It is the original instruction,
see ftrace_make_nop() and ftrace_nop_replace().
Note that we always need to use the NOP for ftrace locations.
Kprobes do not block ftrace and the instruction might get
modified at anytime. It might even be in an inconsistent state
because it is modified step by step using the int3 breakpoint.
The patch also fixes indentation of the touched comment.
Note that I found this problem when playing with Kprobes. I did
it on x86_64 with gcc-4.8.3 that supported -mfentry. I modified
samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.c and added offset 5 to put
the probe right after the fentry area:
static struct kprobe kp = {
.symbol_name = "do_fork",
+ .offset = 5,
};
Then I was able to load kprobe_example before jprobe_example
but not the other way around:
$> modprobe jprobe_example
$> modprobe kprobe_example
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'kprobe_example': Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character
It did not make much sense and debugging pointed to the bug
described above.
