      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.12-20170331' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

New features:

- Beautify the statx syscall arguments in 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

    e.g.:

  System wide strace like session:

  # trace -e statx
   16612.967 ( 0.028 ms): statx/4562 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffef195d660) = 0
   36050.891 ( 0.007 ms): statx/4576 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/passwd, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffda9bf50f0) = 0
  ^C#

User visible changes:

- Handle unpaired raw_syscalls:sys_exit events in 'perf trace', i.e. we
  shouldn't try to calculate duration or print the timestamp for a missing
  matching raw_syscalls:sys_enter (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Do not print "cycles: 0" in perf report LBR lines in platforms not
  supporting 'cycles', such as Intel's Broadwell (Jin Yao)

- Handle missing $HOME env var (Jiri Olsa)

- Map 8-bit registers (al, bl, etc), not supported in uprobes_events, to
  the next best thing (ax, bx, etc) supported (Ravi Bangoria)

      perf trace: Beautify statx syscall 'flag' and 'mask' arguments · fd5cead2
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      To test it, build samples/statx/test_statx, which I did as:

  $ make headers_install
  $ cc -I ~/git/linux/usr/include samples/statx/test-statx.c -o /tmp/statx

And then use perf trace on it:

  # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx /etc/passwd
  statx(/etc/passwd) = 0
  results=7ff

  #

Using the test-stat.c options to change the mask:

  #

Adding a probe to get the filename collected as well:

  # perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=result->name:string'
  Added new event:
    probe:vfs_getname    (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1

  # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -D -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null
     0.169 ( 0.007 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/passwd, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffda9bf50f0) = 0
  #

Same technique could be used to collect and beautify the result put in
the 'buffer' argument.

Finally do a system wide 'perf trace' session looking for any use of statx,
then run the test proggie with various flags:

  # trace -e statx
   16612.967 ( 0.028 ms): statx/4562 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffef195d660) = 0
   33064.447 ( 0.011 ms): statx/4569 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_FORCE_SYNC, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffc5484c790) = 0
   36050.891 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4576 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffeb18b66e0) = 0
   38039.889 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4584 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7fff1db0ea90) = 0
  ^C#

This one also starts moving the beautifiers from files directly included
in builtin-trace.c to separate objects + a beauty.h header with
prototypes, so that we can add test cases in tools/perf/tests/ to fire
syscalls with various arguments and then get them intercepted as
syscalls:sys_enter_foo or raw_syscalls:sys_enter + sys_exit to then
format and check that the formatted output is the one we expect.

      perf tools: Do not fail in case of empty HOME env variable · 3e00cbe8
      Jiri Olsa authored 
      Currently we fail in the following case:

  $ unset HOME
  $ ./perf record ls
  $ echo $?
  255

It's because the config code init fails due to a missing HOME variable
value. Fix this by skipping the user config init if there's no HOME
variable value.

      perf trace: Handle unpaired raw_syscalls:sys_exit event · fd2b2975
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Which may happen when we start a tracing session and a thread is waiting
for something like "poll" to return, in which case we better print "?"
both for the syscall entry timestamp and for the duration.

E.g.:

Tracing existing mutt session:

  # perf trace -p `pidof mutt`
          ? (     ?   ): mutt/17135  ... [continued]: poll()) = 1
      0.027 ( 0.013 ms): mutt/17135 read(buf: 0x7ffcb3c42cef, count: 1) = 1
      0.047 ( 0.008 ms): mutt/17135 poll(ufds: 0x7ffcb3c42c50, nfds: 1, timeout_msecs: 1000) = 1
      0.059 ( 0.008 ms): mutt/17135 read(buf: 0x7ffcb3c42cef, count: 1) = 1
  <SNIP>

Before it would print a large number because we'd do:

  ttrace->entry_time - trace->base_time

And entry_time would be 0, while base_time would be the timestamp for
the first event 'perf trace' reads, oops.

      Merge tag 'edac_for_4.11_2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bp/bp · ad0376eb
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull EDAC updates from Borislav Petkov:
 "A new EDAC driver for the Pondicherry2 memory controller IP found in
  the Intel Apollo Lake platform and the Denverton microserver.

  Plus small fixlets.

  Normally I had this queued for 4.12 but Tony requested for the
  pnd2_edac driver to possibly land in 4.11 therefore I'm sending it to
  you now.

  It is a driver for new hardware which people don't have yet so it
  shouldn't cause any regressions.

  The couple of patches ontop of it show that Qiuxu actually did test it
  on the hardware he has access to :)"
