Peter Zijlstra e6e18ec79b perf_counter: Rework the sample ABI
The PERF_EVENT_READ implementation made me realize we don't
actually need the sample_type int the output sample, since
we already have that in the perf_counter_attr information.

Therefore, remove the PERF_EVENT_MISC_OVERFLOW bit and the
event->type overloading, and imply put counter overflow
samples in a PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE type.

This also fixes the issue that event->type was only 32-bit
and sample_type had 64 usable bits.

Peter Zijlstra bfbd3381e6 perf_counter: Implement more accurate per task statistics
With the introduction of PERF_EVENT_READ we have the
possibility to provide accurate counter values for
individual tasks in a task hierarchy.

However, due to the lazy context switching used for similar
counter contexts our current per task counts are way off.

In order to maintain some of the lazy switch benefits we
don't disable it out-right, but simply iterate the active
counters and flip the values between the contexts.

This only reads the counters but does not need to reprogram
the full PMU.

Peter Zijlstra 38b200d676 perf_counter: Add PERF_EVENT_READ
Provide a read() like event which can be used to log the
counter value at specific sites such as child->parent
folding on exit.

In order to be useful, we log the counter parent ID, not the
actual counter ID, since userspace can only relate parent
IDs to perf_counter_attr constructs.

Hans Verkuil c70366732f i2c: New macro to initialize i2c address lists on the fly
For video4linux we sometimes need to probe for a single i2c address.
Normally you would do it like this:

static const unsigned short addrs[] = {
	addr, I2C_CLIENT_END
};

client = i2c_new_probed_device(adapter, &info, addrs);

This is a bit awkward and I came up with this macro:

#define V4L2_I2C_ADDRS(addr, addrs...) \
	((const unsigned short []){ addr, ## addrs, I2C_CLIENT_END })

This can construct a list of one or more i2c addresses on the fly. But
this is something that really belongs in i2c.h, renamed to I2C_ADDRS.

With this macro we can just do:

client = i2c_new_probed_device(adapter, &info, I2C_ADDRS(addr));

Note that this can also be used to initialize an array:

static const unsigned short addrs[] = I2C_ADDRS(0x2a, 0x2c);

Whether you want to is another matter, but it works. This functionality is 
also available in the oldest supported gcc (3.2).

Peter Zijlstra e5289d4a18 perf_counter: Simplify and fix task migration counting
The task migrations counter was causing rare and hard to decypher
memory corruptions under load. After a day of debugging and bisection
we found that the problem was introduced with:

  3f731ca: perf_counter: Fix cpu migration counter

Turning them off fixes the crashes. Incidentally, the whole
perf_counter_task_migration() logic can be done simpler as well,
by injecting a proper sw-counter event.

This cleanup also fixed the crashes. The precise failure mode is
not completely clear yet, but we are clearly not unhappy about
having a fix ;-)

Steven Rostedt 71e308a239 function-graph: add stack frame test
In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return
from function code, we would like to detect that.

An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the
function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested
when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for
this purpose.

This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack
frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit.

There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a
few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the
return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and
not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go
to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function
graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do
this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function
was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes.

This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was.

This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch
specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate
the new prototype.

Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace.
This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be
used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

Rodolfo Giometti eae9d2ba0c LinuxPPS: core support
This patch adds the kernel side of the PPS support currently named
"LinuxPPS".

PPS means "pulse per second" and a PPS source is just a device which
provides a high precision signal each second so that an application can
use it to adjust system clock time.

Common use is the combination of the NTPD as userland program with a GPS
receiver as PPS source to obtain a wallclock-time with sub-millisecond
synchronisation to UTC.

To obtain this goal the userland programs shoud use the PPS API
specification (RFC 2783 - Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating
Systems, Version 1.0) which in part is implemented by this patch.  It
provides a set of chars devices, one per PPS source, which can be used to
get the time signal.  The RFC's functions can be implemented by accessing
to these char devices.

Daniel Mack c8a06c1ef0 w1-gpio: add external pull-up enable callback
On embedded devices, sleep mode conditions can be tricky to handle,
Especially when processors tend to pull-down the w1 bus during sleep.  Bus
slaves (such as the ds2760) may interpret this as a reason for power-down
conditions and entirely switch off the device.

This patch adds a callback function pointer to let users switch on and off
the external pull-up resistor.  This lets the outside world know whether
the processor is currently actively driving the bus or not.

When this callback is not provided, the code behaviour won't change.

FUJITA Tomonori c147d8ea3e dma-mapping: add asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h
We unified x86 and IA64's handling of multiple dma mapping operations
(struct dma_map_ops in linux/dma-mapping.h) so we can remove duplication
in their arch/include/asm/dma-mapping.h.

This patchset adds include/asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h that provides
some generic dma mapping function definitions for the users of struct
dma_map_ops.  This enables us to remove about 100 lines.  This also
enables us to easily add CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support, which only x86
supports for now.  The 4th patch adds CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support to IA64
by adding only 8 lines.

This patch:

This header file provides some mapping function definitions that the users
of struct dma_map_ops can use.

Peter Oberparleiter 2521f2c228 gcov: add gcov profiling infrastructure
Enable the use of GCC's coverage testing tool gcov [1] with the Linux
kernel.  gcov may be useful for:

 * debugging (has this code been reached at all?)
 * test improvement (how do I change my test to cover these lines?)
 * minimizing kernel configurations (do I need this option if the
   associated code is never run?)

The profiling patch incorporates the following changes:

 * change kbuild to include profiling flags
 * provide functions needed by profiling code
 * present profiling data as files in debugfs

Note that on some architectures, enabling gcc's profiling option
"-fprofile-arcs" for the entire kernel may trigger compile/link/
run-time problems, some of which are caused by toolchain bugs and
others which require adjustment of architecture code.

For this reason profiling the entire kernel is initially restricted
to those architectures for which it is known to work without changes.
This restriction can be lifted once an architecture has been tested
and found compatible with gcc's profiling. Profiling of single files
or directories is still available on all platforms (see config help
text).

Christoph Hellwig 17f98dcf60 pids: clean up find_task_by_pid variants
find_task_by_pid_type_ns is only used to implement find_task_by_vpid and
find_task_by_pid_ns, but both of them pass PIDTYPE_PID as first argument.
So just fold find_task_by_pid_type_ns into find_task_by_pid_ns and use
find_task_by_pid_ns to implement find_task_by_vpid.

While we're at it also remove the exports for find_task_by_pid_ns and
find_task_by_vpid - we don't have any modular callers left as the only
modular caller of he old pre pid namespace find_task_by_pid (gfs2) was
switched to pid_task which operates on a struct pid pointer instead of a
pid_t.  Given the confusion about pid_t values vs namespace that's
generally the better option anyway and I think we're better of restricting
modules to do it that way.
