Commit e9677b3c (oprofile, ARM: Use oprofile_arch_exit() to cleanup on failure) caused oprofile_perf_exit to be called in the cleanup path of oprofile_perf_init. The __exit tag for oprofile_perf_exit should therefore be dropped. The same has to be done for exit_driverfs as well, as this function is called from oprofile_perf_exit. Else, we get the following two linker errors. LD .tmp_vmlinux1 `oprofile_perf_exit' referenced in section `.init.text' of arch/arm/oprofile/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of arch/arm/oprofile/built-in.o make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 LD .tmp_vmlinux1 `exit_driverfs' referenced in section `.text' of arch/arm/oprofile/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of arch/arm/oprofile/built-in.o make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 Signed-off-by: Anand Gadiyar <gadiyar@ti.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

Merge branch 'tip/perf/recordmcount-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace into perf/core

Steven Rostedt authored
The config option used by archs to let the build system know that the C version of the recordmcount works for said arch is currently called HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD which enables BUILD_C_RECORDMCOUNT. To be more consistent with the name that all archs may use, it has been renamed to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT. This will be less confusing since we are building a C recordmcount and not a mcount_record.

The elf reader for recordmcount.c had duplicate functions for both 32 bit and 64 bit elf handling. This was due to the need of using the 32 and 64 bit elf structures. This patch consolidates the two by using macros to define the 32 and 64 bit names in a recordmcount.h file, and then by just defining a RECORD_MCOUNT_64 macro and including recordmcount.h twice we create the funtions for both the 32 bit version as well as the 64 bit version using one code source.

This patch adds the support for the C version of recordmcount and compile times show ~ 12% improvement. After verifying this works, other archs can add: HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD in its Kconfig and it will use the C version of recordmcount instead of the perl version.

Currently, the mcount callers are found with a perl script that does an objdump on every file in the kernel. This is a C version of that same code which should increase the performance time of compiling the kernel with dynamic ftrace enabled.

In x86, faults exit by executing the iret instruction, which then reenables NMIs if we faulted in NMI context. Then if a fault happens in NMI, another NMI can nest after the fault exits. But we don't yet support nested NMIs because we have only one NMI stack. To prevent from that, check that vmalloc and kmemcheck faults don't happen in this context. Most of the other kernel faults in NMIs can be more easily spotted by finding explicit copy_from,to_user() calls on review.

Oprofile counters are setup when profiling is disabled. Thus, writing to oprofilefs has no immediate effect. Changes are updated only after oprofile is reenabled. To keep userland and kernel states synchronized, we now allow configuration of oprofile only if profiling is disabled. In this case it checks if the profiler is running and then disables write access to oprofilefs by returning -EBUSY. The change should be backward compatible with current oprofile userland daemon.

Now that we've got a generic perf-events based oprofile backend we might as well make use of it seeing as SH doesn't do anything special with its oprofile backend. Also introduce a new CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS symbol so that we can fallback to using the timer interrupt for oprofile if the CPU doesn't support perf events. Also, to avoid a section mismatch warning we need to annotate oprofile_arch_exit() with an __exit marker.

Move the perf-events backend from arch/arm/oprofile into drivers/oprofile so that the code can be shared between architectures. This allows each architecture to maintain only a single copy of the PMU accessor functions instead of one for both perf and OProfile. It also becomes possible for other architectures to delete much of their OProfile code in favour of the common code now available in drivers/oprofile/oprofile_perf.c.
