Steven Rostedt f1d1feecf0 perf tools: Handle newlines in trace parsing better
New lines between args in the trace format can break the
parsing. This should not be the case.

Steven Rostedt b99af87482 perf tools: Handle * as typecast in trace parsing
The '*' is currently only treated as a multiplication, and it
needs to be handled as a typecast pointer.

This is the version used by trace-cmd.

Steven Rostedt 0959b8d65c perf tools: Handle arrays in print fields for trace parsing
The array used by the ftrace stack events (caller[x]) causes
issues with the parser. This adds code to handle the case, but
it also assumes that the array is of type long.

Note, this is a special case used (currently) only by the ftrace
user and kernel stack records.

Stefan Richter eaf76e0d02 firewire: sbp2: provide fallback if mgt_ORB_timeout is missing
The Unit_Characteristics entry of an SBP-2 unit directory is not
mandatory as far as I can tell.  If it is missing, we would probably
fail to log in into the target because firewire-sbp2 would not wait for
status after it sent the login request.

The fix moves the cleanup of tgt->mgt_orb_timeout into a place where it
is executed exactly once before login, rather than 0..n times depending
on the target's config ROM.  With targets with one or more
Unit_Characteristics entries, the result is the same as before.

We are using strncpy in the wrong way to copy the ftrace_graph_filter
boot param because we pass the buffer size instead of the max string
size it can contain (buffer size - 1). The end result might not be
NULL terminated as we are abusing the max string size.

Michael Holzheu 03cadd36d5 [S390] tape390: Fix request queue handling in block driver
When setting a channel attached tape online under Linux 2.6.31, the

"vol_id" process from udev hangs in sync_page():
 2 sync_page+144 [0x1dfaac]
 3 __wait_on_bit_lock+194 [0x58c23e]
 4 __lock_page+116 [0x1df9dc]
 5 truncate_inode_pages_range+728 [0x1ed7cc]
 6 __blkdev_put+244 [0x25f738]
 7 __fput+300 [0x229c4c]
 8 filp_close+122 [0x225a3a]

The reason for that is an error in the request queue handling. It can
happen that we fetch a request, but do not process it further because
the number of queued requests exceeds TAPEBLOCK_MIN_REQUEUE.
To fix this, we should call blk_peek_request() instead of
blk_fetch_request() in the while condition and fetch the request in
the loop body afterwards.

This bug was introduced with the patch "block: implement and enforce
request peek/start/fetch" (9934c8c045)

Frederic Weisbecker c44fc77084 tracing: Move syscalls metadata handling from arch to core
Most of the syscalls metadata processing is done from arch.
But these operations are mostly generic accross archs. Especially now
that we have a common variable name that expresses the number of
syscalls supported by an arch: NR_syscalls, the only remaining bits
that need to reside in arch is the syscall nr to addr translation.

v2: Compare syscalls symbols only after the "sys" prefix so that we
    avoid spurious mismatches with archs that have syscalls wrappers,
    in which case syscalls symbols have "SyS" prefixed aliases.

Paul Mackerras 03541f8b69 perf_event: Adjust frequency and unthrottle for non-group-leader events
The loop in perf_ctx_adjust_freq checks the frequency of sampling
event counters, and adjusts the event interval and unthrottles the
event if required, and resets the interrupt count for the event.
However, at present it only looks at group leaders.

This means that a sampling event that is not a group leader will
eventually get throttled, once its interrupt count reaches
sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate/HZ --- and that is guaranteed to
happen, if the event is active for long enough, since the interrupt
count never gets reset.  Once it is throttled it never gets
unthrottled, so it basically just stops working at that point.

This fixes it by making perf_ctx_adjust_freq use ctx->event_list
rather than ctx->group_list.  The existing spin_lock/spin_unlock
around the loop makes it unnecessary to put rcu_read_lock/
rcu_read_unlock around the list_for_each_entry_rcu().

Jiri Olsa 5cb084bb1f tracing: Enable records during the module load
I was debuging some module using "function" and "function_graph"
tracers and noticed, that if you load module after you enabled
tracing, the module's hooks will convert only to NOP instructions.

The attached patch enables modules' hooks if there's function trace
allready on, thus allowing to trace module functions.

jolsa@redhat.com 756d17ee7e tracing: Support multiple pids in set_pid_ftrace file
Adding the possibility to set more than 1 pid in the set_pid_ftrace
file, thus allowing to trace more than 1 independent processes.

Usage:

 sh-4.0# echo 284 > ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# cat ./set_ftrace_pid
 284
 sh-4.0# echo 1 >> ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# echo 0 >> ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# cat ./set_ftrace_pid
 swapper tasks
 1
 284
 sh-4.0# echo 4 > ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# cat ./set_ftrace_pid
 4
 sh-4.0# echo > ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# cat ./set_ftrace_pid
 no pid
 sh-4.0#

Steven Rostedt 194ec34184 function-graph/x86: Replace unbalanced ret with jmp
The function graph tracer replaces the return address with a hook
to trace the exit of the function call. This hook will finish by
returning to the real location the function should return to.

But the current implementation uses a ret to jump to the real
return location. This causes a imbalance between calls and ret.
That is the original function does a call, the ret goes to the
handler and then the handler does a ret without a matching call.

Although the function graph tracer itself still breaks the branch
predictor by replacing the original ret, by using a second ret and
causing an imbalance, it breaks the predictor even more.

This patch replaces the ret with a jmp to keep the calls and ret
balanced. I tested this on one box and it showed a 1.7% increase in
performance. Another box only showed a small 0.3% increase. But no
box that I tested this on showed a decrease in performance by
making this change.
