699b6d922c perf, sched migration: Make the GUI class client agnostic
Make the perf migration GUI generic so that it can be reused for
other kinds of trace painting. No more notion of CPUs or runqueue
from the GUI class, it's now used as a library by the trace parser.

70d815a3de perf, sched migration: Make it vertically scrollable
With scheduler traces covering more than two cpus, rectangles
of the CPUs 3 and more are not visibles.

This makes the vertical navigation scrollable so that all of the
CPUs rectangles are available.

We also want to be able to zoom vertically, so that we can fit at
best the screen with CPU rectangles, but that's for later.

0cddf56aa8 perf, sched migration: Parameterize cpu height and spacing
Without vertical zoom, it is not possible to see all CPUs in a trace
taken on a larger machine. This patch parameterizes the height and
spacing of CPUs so that you can fit more cpus into the screen.

Ideally we should dynamically size/space the CPU rectangles with some
minimum threshold. Until then, this patch is a stop-gap.

749e507411 perf, sched migration: Handle ignored migrate out events
Migrate out events may happen on tasks that are not in the
runqueue, for example this is the case for tasks that are
sleeping. In this case, we don't want to log the migrate out
event in the source runqueue because the task is not eventually
in the runqueue and we have already logged its sleep event.

This fixes timeslices that spuriously propagate a sleep event
from the previous timeslice.

880d22f247 perf: New migration tool overview
This brings a GUI tool that displays an overview of the load
of tasks proportion in each CPUs.

The CPUs forward progress is cut in timeslices. A new timeslice
is created for every runqueue event: a task gets pushed out or
pulled in the runqueue.

For each timeslice, every CPUs rectangle is colored with a red
power that describes the local load against the total load.
This more red is the rectangle, the higher is the given CPU load.
This load is the number of tasks running on the CPU, without
any distinction against the scheduler policy of the tasks, for
now.

Also for each timeslice, the event origin is depicted on the
CPUs that triggered it using a thin colored line on top of the
rectangle timeslice.

These events are:

* sleep: a task went to sleep and has then been pulled out the
  runqueue. The origin color in the thin line is dark blue.

* wake up: a task woke up and has then been pushed in the
  runqueue. The origin color is yellow.

* wake up new: a new task woke up and has then been pushed in the
  runqueue. The origin color is green.

* migrate in: a task migrated in the runqueue due to a load
  balancing operation. The origin color is violet.

* migrate out: reverse of the previous one. Migrate in events
  usually have paired migrate out events in another runqueue.
  The origin color is light blue.

Clicking on a timeslice provides the runqueue event details
and the runqueue state.

The CPU rectangles can be navigated using the usual arrow
controls. Horizontal zooming in/out is possible with the
"+" and "-" buttons.

But the tracepoint API has its own API for that:
tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(). Use it instead as it's

de51257aa3 mm: fix ia64 crash when gcore reads gate area
Debian's ia64 autobuilders have been seeing kernel freeze or reboot
when running the gdb testsuite (Debian bug 588574): dannf bisected to
2.6.32 62eede62da "mm: ZERO_PAGE without
PTE_SPECIAL"; and reproduced it with gdb's gcore on a simple target.

I'd missed updating the gate_vma handling in __get_user_pages(): that
happens to use vm_normal_page() (nowadays failing on the zero page),
yet reported success even when it failed to get a page - boom when
access_process_vm() tried to copy that to its intermediate buffer.

Fix this, resisting cleanups: in particular, leave it for now reporting
success when not asked to get any pages - very probably safe to change,
but let's not risk it without testing exposure.

Why did ia64 crash with 16kB pages, but succeed with 64kB pages?
Because setup_gate() pads each 64kB of its gate area with zero pages.

I was testing two CyberPro 2000 based PCI cards on x86 and the machine always
hanged completely when the cyber2000fb module was loaded. It seems that the
card hangs when some registers are accessed too quickly after writing RAMDAC
control register. With this patch, both card work.

Add delay after RAMDAC control register write to prevent hangs on module load.

831e8047eb ARM: 6279/1: highmem: fix SMP preemption bug in kmap_high_l1_vipt
smp_processor_id() must not be called from a preemptible context (this
is checked by CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT).  kmap_high_l1_vipt() was doing so.
This lead to a problem where the wrong per_cpu kmap_high_l1_vipt_depth
could be incremented, causing a BUG_ON(*depth <= 0); in
kunmap_high_l1_vipt().

The solution is to move the call to smp_processor_id() after the call
to preempt_disable().

591765fdaf perf tools: Release thread resources on PERF_RECORD_EXIT
For long running sessions with many threads with short lifetimes the
amount of memory that the buildid process takes is too much.

Since we don't have hist_entries that may be pointing to them, we can
just release the resources associated with each thread when the exit
(PERF_RECORD_EXIT) event is received.

For normal processing we need to annotate maps with hits, and thus
hist_entries pointing to it and drop the ones that had none. Will be
done in a followup patch.

674b222292 nfs: include space for the NUL in root path
In root_nfs_name() it does the following:

        if (strlen(buf) + strlen(cp) > NFS_MAXPATHLEN) {
                printk(KERN_ERR "Root-NFS: Pathname for remote directory too long.\n");
                return -1;
        }
        sprintf(nfs_export_path, buf, cp);

In the original code if (strlen(buf) + strlen(cp) == NFS_MAXPATHLEN)
then the sprintf() would lead to an overflow.  Generally the rest of the
code assumes that the path can have NFS_MAXPATHLEN (1024) characters and
a NUL terminator so the fix is to add space to the nfs_export_path[]
buffer.

6da80ce8c4 perf symbols: Improve debug image search when loading symbols
Changes:
	* Simplification of the main search loop on dso__load()
	* Replace the search with a 2-pass search:
		* First, try to find an image with a proper symtab.
		* Second, repeat the search, accepting dynsym.

A second scan should only ever happen when needed debug images are
missing from the buildid cache or stale, i.e., when the cache is out of
sync.

Currently, the second scan also happens when using separated debug
images, since the caching logic doesn't currently know how to cache
those.  Improvements to the cache behaviour ought to solve that.

21916c380d perf tools: Factor out buildid reading and make it implicit in dso__load
If we have a buildid, then we never want to load an image which has no buildid,
or which has a different buildid, so it makes sense for the check to be built
into dso__load and not done separately.  This is fine for old distros which
don't use buildid at all since we do no check in that case.

This refactoring also alleviates some subtle race condition issues by not
opening ELF images twice to check the buildid and then load the symbols, which
could lead to weirdness if an image is replaced under our feet.

8f92054e7c CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner comment
Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check by removing the following validation
condition:

	lockdep_tasklist_lock_is_held()

as commit_creds() does not take the tasklist_lock, and nor do most of the
functions that call it, so this check is pointless and it can prevent
detection of the RCU lock not being held if the tasklist_lock is held.

Instead, add the following validation condition:

	task->exit_state >= 0

to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore unable to change
its own credentials.

Fix __task_cred()'s comment to:

 (1) discard the bit that says that the caller must prevent the target task
     from being deleted.  That shouldn't need saying.

 (2) Add a comment indicating the result of __task_cred() should not be passed
     directly to get_cred(), but rather than get_task_cred() should be used
     instead.

Also put a note into the documentation to enforce this point there too.

de09a9771a CRED: Fix get_task_cred() and task_state() to not resurrect dead credentials
It's possible for get_task_cred() as it currently stands to 'corrupt' a set of
credentials by incrementing their usage count after their replacement by the
task being accessed.

What happens is that get_task_cred() can race with commit_creds():

	TASK_1			TASK_2			RCU_CLEANER
	-->get_task_cred(TASK_2)
	rcu_read_lock()
	__cred = __task_cred(TASK_2)
				-->commit_creds()
				old_cred = TASK_2->real_cred
				TASK_2->real_cred = ...
				put_cred(old_cred)
				  call_rcu(old_cred)
		[__cred->usage == 0]
	get_cred(__cred)
		[__cred->usage == 1]
	rcu_read_unlock()
							-->put_cred_rcu()
							[__cred->usage == 1]
							panic()

However, since a tasks credentials are generally not changed very often, we can
reasonably make use of a loop involving reading the creds pointer and using
atomic_inc_not_zero() to attempt to increment it if it hasn't already hit zero.

If successful, we can safely return the credentials in the knowledge that, even
if the task we're accessing has released them, they haven't gone to the RCU
cleanup code.

We then change task_state() in procfs to use get_task_cred() rather than
calling get_cred() on the result of __task_cred(), as that suffers from the
same problem.

Without this change, a BUG_ON in __put_cred() or in put_cred_rcu() can be
tripped when it is noticed that the usage count is not zero as it ought to be,
for example:

dc1eae256c ALSA: hda - Add a PC-beep workaround for ASUS P5-V
ASUS P5-V provides a SSID that unexpectedly matches with the value
compilant with Realtek's specification.  Thus the driver interprets
it badly, resulting in non-working PC beep.

This patch adds a white-list for such a case; a white-list of known
devices with working PC beep.

b92b361213 ARM: Add barriers to io{read,write}{8,16,32} accessors as well
The ioread/iowrite accessors also need barriers as they're used in
place of readl/writel et.al. in portable drivers.  Create __iormb()
and __iowmb() which are conditionally defined to be barriers dependent
on ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE, and always use these macros in the accessors.

79f64dbf68 ARM: 6273/1: Add barriers to the I/O accessors if ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE
When the coherent DMA buffers are mapped as Normal Non-cacheable
(ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE enabled), buffer accesses are no longer ordered
with Device memory accesses causing failures in device drivers that do
not use the mandatory memory barriers before starting a DMA transfer.
LKML discussions led to the conclusion that such barriers have to be
added to the I/O accessors:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/683509/focus=686153
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/46414
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/5250

This patch introduces a wmb() barrier to the write*() I/O accessors to
handle the situations where Normal Non-cacheable writes are still in the
processor (or L2 cache controller) write buffer before a DMA transfer
command is issued. For the read*() accessors, a rmb() is introduced
after the I/O to avoid speculative loads where the driver polls for a
DMA transfer ready bit.

This patch is in preparation for a subsequent patch which adds barriers
to the I/O accessors. Since the mandatory barriers may do an L2 cache
sync, this patch avoids a recursive call into l2x0_cache_sync() via the
write*() accessors and wmb() and a call into l2x0_cache_sync() with the
l2x0_lock held.
