The problem with running lockdep on the ring buffer is that the

ftrace: restructure tracing start/stop infrastructure
Impact: change where tracing is started up and stopped
Currently, when a new tracer is selected via echo'ing a tracer name into
the current_tracer file, the startup is only done if tracing_enabled is
set to one. If tracing_enabled is changed to zero (by echo'ing 0 into
the tracing_enabled file) a full shutdown is performed.
The full startup and shutdown of a tracer can be expensive and the
user can lose out traces when echo'ing in 0 to the tracing_enabled file,
because the process takes too long. There can also be places that
the user would like to start and stop the tracer several times and
doing the full startup and shutdown of a tracer might be too expensive.
This patch performs the full startup and shutdown when a tracer is
selected. It also adds a way to do a quick start or stop of a tracer.
The quick version is just a flag that prevents the tracing from
taking place, but the overhead of the code is still there.
For example, the startup of a tracer may enable tracepoints, or enable
the function tracer. The stop and start will just set a flag to
have the tracer ignore the calls when the tracepoint or function trace
is called. The overhead of the tracer may still be present when
the tracer is stopped, but no tracing will occur. Setting the tracer
to the 'nop' tracer (or any other tracer) will perform the shutdown
of the tracer which will disable the tracepoint or disable the
function tracer.
The tracing_enabled file will simply start or stop tracing.
This change is all internal. The end result for the user should be the same
as before. If tracing_enabled is not set, no trace will happen.
If tracing_enabled is set, then the trace will happen. The tracing_enabled
variable is static between tracers. Enabling tracing_enabled and
going to another tracer will keep tracing_enabled enabled. Same
is true with disabling tracing_enabled.
This patch will now provide a fast start/stop method to the users
for enabling or disabling tracing.
Note: There were two methods to the struct tracer that were never
used: The methods start and stop. These were to be used as a hook
to the reading of the trace output, but ended up not being
necessary. These two methods are now used to enable the start
and stop of each tracer, in case the tracer needs to do more than
just not write into the buffer. For example, the irqsoff tracer
must stop recording max latencies when tracing is stopped.

ftrace: function tracer with irqs disabled
Impact: disable interrupts during trace entry creation (as opposed to preempt)
To help with performance, I set the ftracer to not disable interrupts,
and only to disable preemption. If an interrupt occurred, it would not
be traced, because the function tracer protects itself from recursion.
This may be faster, but the trace output might miss some traces.
This patch makes the fuction trace disable interrupts, but it also
adds a runtime feature to disable preemption instead. It does this by
having two different tracer functions. When the function tracer is
enabled, it will check to see which version is requested (irqs disabled
or preemption disabled). Then it will use the corresponding function
as the tracer.
Irq disabling is the default behaviour, but if the user wants better
performance, with the chance of missing traces, then they can choose
the preempt disabled version.
Running hackbench 3 times with the irqs disabled and 3 times with
the preempt disabled function tracer yielded:
tracing type times entries recorded
------------ -------- ----------------
irq disabled 43.393
166433066
43.282
166172618
43.298
166256704
preempt disabled 38.969
159871710
38.943
159972935
39.325
161056510
Average:
irqs disabled: 43.324
166287462
preempt disabled: 39.079
160300385
preempt is 10.8 percent faster than irqs disabled.
I wrote a patch to count function trace recursion and reran hackbench.
With irq disabled: 1,150 times the function tracer did not trace due to
recursion.
with preempt disabled: 5,117,718 times.
The thousand times with irq disabled could be due to NMIs, or simply a case
where it called a function that was not protected by notrace.
But we also see that a large amount of the trace is lost with the
preempt version.

ftrace: introduce ftrace_preempt_disable()/enable()
Impact: add new ftrace-plugin internal APIs
Parts of the tracer needs to be careful about schedule recursion.
If the NEED_RESCHED flag is set, a preempt_enable will call schedule.
Inside the schedule function, the NEED_RESCHED flag is cleared.
The problem arises when a trace happens in the schedule function but before
NEED_RESCHED is cleared. The race is as follows:
schedule()
>> tracer called
trace_function()
preempt_disable()
[ record trace ]
preempt_enable() <<- here's the issue.
[check NEED_RESCHED]
schedule()
[ Repeat the above, over and over again ]
The naive approach is simply to use preempt_enable_no_schedule instead.
The problem with that approach is that, although we solve the schedule
recursion issue, we now might lose a preemption check when not in the
schedule function.
trace_function()
preempt_disable()
[ record trace ]
[Interrupt comes in and sets NEED_RESCHED]
preempt_enable_no_resched()
[continue without scheduling]
The way ftrace handles this problem is with the following approach:
int resched;
resched = need_resched();
preempt_disable_notrace();
[record trace]
if (resched)
preempt_enable_no_sched_notrace();
else
preempt_enable_notrace();
This may seem like the opposite of what we want. If resched is set
then we call the "no_sched" version?? The reason we do this is because
if NEED_RESCHED is set before we disable preemption, there's two reasons
for that:
1) we are in an atomic code path
2) we are already on our way to the schedule function, and maybe even
in the schedule function, but have yet to clear the flag.
Both the above cases we do not want to schedule.
This solution has already been implemented within the ftrace infrastructure.
But the problem is that it has been implemented several times. This patch
encapsulates this code to two nice functions.
resched = ftrace_preempt_disable();
[ record trace]
ftrace_preempt_enable(resched);
This way the tracers do not need to worry about getting it right.

ftrace: use kretprobe trampoline name to test in output
Impact: ia64+tracing build fix
When a function is kprobed, the return address is set to the
kprobe_trampoline, or something similar. This caused the output
of the trace to look confusing when the parent seemed to be this
"kprobe_trampoline" function.
To fix this, Abhishek Sagar added a test of the instruction pointer
of the parent to see if it matched the kprobe_trampoline. If it
did, the output would print a "[unknown/kretprobe'd]" instead.
Unfortunately, not all archs do this the same way, and the trampoline
function may not be exported, which causes failures in builds.
This patch will compare the name instead of the pointer to see
if it matches. This prevents us from depending on a function from
being exported, and should work on all archs. The worst that can
happen is that an arch might use a different name and then we
go back to the confusing output. At least the arch will still build.

sparc64: Fix PCI resource mapping on sparc64
There is a problem discovered in recent versions of ATI Mach64 driver
in X.org on sparc64 architecture. In short, the driver fails to mmap
MMIO aperture (PCI resource #2).
I've found that kernel's __pci_mmap_make_offset() returns EINVAL. It
checks whether user attempts to mmap more than the resource length,
which is 0x1000 bytes in our case. But PAGE_SIZE on SPARC64 is 0x2000
and this is what actually is being mmaped. So __pci_mmap_make_offset()
failed for this PCI resource.

x86: Clean up late e820 resource allocation
This makes the late e820 resources use 'insert_resource_expand_to_fit()'
instead of doing a 'reserve_region_with_split()', and also avoids
marking them as IORESOURCE_BUSY.
This results in us being perfectly happy to use pre-existing PCI
resources even if they were marked as being in a reserved region, while
still avoiding any _new_ allocations in the reserved regions. It also
makes for a simpler and more accurate resource tree.
Example resource allocation from Jonathan Corbet, who has firmware that
has an e820 reserved entry that covered a big range (
e0000000-
fed003ff),
and that had various PCI resources in it set up by firmware.
With old kernels, the reserved range would force us to re-allocate all
pre-existing PCI resources, and his reserved range would end up looking
like this:
e0000000-
fed003ff : reserved
fec00000-
fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
fed00000-
fed003ff : HPET 0
where only the pre-allocated special regions (IOAPIC and HPET) were kept
around.
With 2.6.28-rc2, which uses 'reserve_region_with_split()', Jonathan's
resource tree looked like this:
e0000000-
fe7fffff : reserved
fe800000-
fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
fe800000-
fe8fffff : reserved

fed00000-

and because the reserved entry had been split and moved into the
individual resources, and because it used the IORESOURCE_BUSY flag, the
drivers that actually wanted to _use_ those resources couldn't actually
attach to them:
e1000e 0000:00:19.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9e0000-0xfe9fffff]
HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9dc000-0xfe9dffff]
with this patch, the resource tree instead becomes
e0000000-
fed003ff : reserved
fe800000-
fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
fe9d9b00-
fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3

fed00000-
fed003ff : HPET 0
ie the one reserved region now ends up surrounding all the PCI resources
that were allocated inside of it by firmware, and because it is not
marked BUSY, drivers have no problem attaching to the pre-allocated
resources.

saner FASYNC handling on file close
As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.
So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set. And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

file caps: always start with clear bprm->caps_*
While Linux doesn't honor setuid on scripts. However, it mistakenly
behaves differently for file capabilities.
This patch fixes that behavior by making sure that get_file_caps()
begins with empty bprm->caps_*. That way when a script is loaded,
its bprm->caps_* may be filled when binfmt_misc calls prepare_binprm(),
but they will be cleared again when binfmt_elf calls prepare_binprm()
next to read the interpreter's file capabilities.

SELinux: properly handle empty tty_files list
SELinux has wrongly (since 2004) had an incorrect test for an empty
tty->tty_files list. With an empty list selinux would be pointing to part
of the tty struct itself and would then proceed to dereference that value
and again dereference that result. An F10 change to plymouth on a ppc64
system is actually currently triggering this bug. This patch uses
list_empty() to handle empty lists rather than looking at a meaningless
location.

[CRIS] Remove links from CRIS build
Remove the links to architecture and machine dependent directories
(boot, lib, drivers, arch, mach)
The links were created and used mostly from the arch/cris/Makefile,
so why not dispense with them altogether?
Changed $(ARCH) to "cris" in Makefile, it is easier to read this way.
The CRISv32 head.S common files for the kernel and compressed images
needed to be modified to use ifdefs instead of using the now removed
mach link. Since there are only two versions, this is not a huge loss
in readability.
The link to vmlinux.lds.S is also replaced with a merged version
which uses ifdefs to select the correct layout.
System.map before and after are identical.

ALSA: hda - Disable broken mic auto-muting in Realtek codes
The recent addition of automatic mic-muting is broken in some cases.
The code assumes that the pin nids <= 0x18, but the digital pins can
be less than 0x18.
Also, it assumes the front-mic being the internal mic, but it depends
on the hardware implementation actually.
Instead of complex case-fixes, better to disable the code as now.
