   - ... misc fixes and cleanups.

  The perf tooling team was very busy again with 200+ commits, the full
  diff doesn't fit into lkml size limits.  Here's an (incomplete) list
  of the tooling highlights:

  New features:

   - Change the default event used in all tools (record/top): use the
     most precise "cycles" hw counter available, i.e. when the user
     doesn't specify any event, it will try using cycles:ppp, cycles:pp,
     etc and fall back transparently until it finds a working counter.
     (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Integration of perf with eBPF that, given an eBPF .c source file
     (or .o file built for the 'bpf' target with clang), will get it
     automatically built, validated and loaded into the kernel via the
     sys_bpf syscall, which can then be used and seen using 'perf trace'
     and other tools.

     (Wang Nan)

  Various user interface improvements:

   - Automatic pager invocation on long help output.  (Namhyung Kim)

   - Search for more options when passing args to -h, e.g.: (Arnaldo
     Carvalho de Melo)

        $ perf report -h interface

        Usage: perf report [<options>]

         --gtk    Use the GTK2 interface
         --stdio  Use the stdio interface
         --tui    Use the TUI interface

   - Show ordered command line options when -h is used or when an
     unknown option is specified.  (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - If options are passed after -h, show just its descriptions, not all
     options.  (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Implement column based horizontal scrolling in the hists browser
     (top, report), making it possible to use the TUI for things like
     'perf mem report' where there are many more columns than can fit in
     a terminal.  (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Enhance the error reporting of tracepoint event parsing, e.g.:

       $ oldperf record -e sched:sched_switc usleep 1
       event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
                            \___ unknown tracepoint
       Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

     Now we get the much nicer:

       $ perf record -e sched:sched_switc ls
       event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
                            \___ can't access trace events

       Error: No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switc
       Hint:  Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug'

     And after we have those mount point permissions fixed:

       $ perf record -e sched:sched_switc ls
       event syntax error: 'sched:sched_switc'
                            \___ unknown tracepoint

       Error: File /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switc not found.
       Hint:  Perhaps this kernel misses some CONFIG_ setting to enable this feature?.

     I.e.  basically now the event parsing routing uses the strerror_open()
     routines introduced by and used in 'perf trace' work.  (Jiri Olsa)

   - Fail properly when pattern matching fails to find a tracepoint,
     i.e. '-e non:existent' was being correctly handled, with a proper
     error message about that not being a valid event, but '-e
     non:existent*' wasn't, fix it.  (Jiri Olsa)

   - Do event name substring search as last resort in 'perf list'.
     (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

     E.g.:

       # perf list clock

       List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

        cpu-clock                                          [Software event]

        syscalls:sys_exit_clock_settime                    [Tracepoint event]

  Intel PT hardware tracing enhancements:

   - Accept a zero --itrace period, meaning "as often as possible".  In
     the case of Intel PT that is the same as a period of 1 and a unit
     of 'instructions' (i.e.  --itrace=i1i).  (Adrian Hunter)

   - Harmonize itrace's synthesized callchains with the existing
     --max-stack tool option.  (Adrian Hunter)

   - Allow time to be displayed in nanoseconds in 'perf script'.
     (Adrian Hunter)

   - Fix potential infinite loop when handling Intel PT timestamps.
     (Adrian Hunter)

   - Slighly improve Intel PT debug logging.  (Adrian Hunter)

   - Warn when AUX data has been lost, just like when processing
     PERF_RECORD_LOST.  (Adrian Hunter)

   - Further document export-to-postgresql.py script.  (Adrian Hunter)

   - Add option to synthesize branch stack from auxtrace data.  (Adrian
     Hunter)

  Misc notable changes:

   - Switch the default callchain output mode to 'graph,0.5,caller', to
     make it look like the default for other tools, reducing the
     learning curve for people used to 'caller' based viewing.  (Arnaldo
     Carvalho de Melo)

   - various call chain usability enhancements.  (Namhyung Kim)

   - Introduce the 'P' event modifier, meaning 'max precision level,
     please', i.e.:

        $ perf record -e cycles:P usleep 1

     Is now similar to:

        $ perf record usleep 1

     Useful, for instance, when specifying multiple events.  (Jiri Olsa)

   - Add 'socket' sort entry, to sort by the processor socket in 'perf
     top' and 'perf report'.  (Kan Liang)

   - Introduce --socket-filter to 'perf report', for filtering by
     processor socket.  (Kan Liang)

   - Add new "Zoom into Processor Socket" operation in the perf hists
     browser, used in 'perf top' and 'perf report'.  (Kan Liang)

   - Allow probing on kmodules without DWARF.  (Masami Hiramatsu)

   - Fix 'perf probe -l' for probes added to kernel module functions.
     (Masami Hiramatsu)

   - Preparatory work for the 'perf stat record' feature that will allow
     generating perf.data files with counting data in addition to the
     sampling mode we have now (Jiri Olsa)

   - Update libtraceevent KVM plugin.  (Paolo Bonzini)

This seems to be a mis-reading of how alpha memory ordering works, and
is not backed up by the alpha architecture manual.  The helper functions
don't do anything special on any other architectures, and the arguments
that support them being safe on other architectures also argue that they
are safe on alpha.

Basically, the "control dependency" is between a previous read and a
subsequent write that is dependent on the value read.  Even if the
subsequent write is actually done speculatively, there is no way that
such a speculative write could be made visible to other cpu's until it
has been committed, which requires validating the speculation.

Note that most weakely ordered architectures (very much including alpha)
do not guarantee any ordering relationship between two loads that depend
on each other on a control dependency:

    read A
    if (val == 1)
        read B

because the conditional may be predicted, and the "read B" may be
speculatively moved up to before reading the value A.  So we require the
user to insert a smp_rmb() between the two accesses to be correct:

    read A;
    if (A == 1)
        smp_rmb()
        read B

Alpha is further special in that it can break that ordering even if the
*address* of B depends on the read of A, because the cacheline that is
read later may be stale unless you have a memory barrier in between the
pointer read and the read of the value behind a pointer:

    read ptr
    read offset(ptr)

whereas all other weakly ordered architectures guarantee that the data
dependency (as opposed to just a control dependency) will order the two
accesses.  As a result, alpha needs a "smp_read_barrier_depends()" in
between those two reads for them to be ordered.

The coontrol dependency that "READ_ONCE_CTRL()" and "atomic_read_ctrl()"
had was a control dependency to a subsequent *write*, however, and
nobody can finalize such a subsequent write without having actually done
the read.  And were you to write such a value to a "stale" cacheline
(the way the unordered reads came to be), that would seem to lose the
write entirely.

So the things that make alpha able to re-order reads even more
aggressively than other weak architectures do not seem to be relevant
for a subsequent write.  Alpha memory ordering may be strange, but
there's no real indication that it is *that* strange.

Also, the alpha architecture reference manual very explicitly talks
about the definition of "Dependence Constraints" in section 5.6.1.7,
where a preceding read dominates a subsequent write.

Such a dependence constraint admittedly does not impose a BEFORE (alpha
architecture term for globally visible ordering), but it does guarantee
that there can be no "causal loop".  I don't see how you could avoid
such a loop if another cpu could see the stored value and then impact
the value of the first read.  Put another way: the read and the write
could not be seen as being out of order wrt other cpus.

So I do not see how these "x_ctrl()" functions can currently be necessary.

I may have to eat my words at some point, but in the absense of clear
proof that alpha actually needs this, or indeed even an explanation of
how alpha could _possibly_ need it, I do not believe these functions are
called for.

And if it turns out that alpha really _does_ need a barrier for this
case, that barrier still should not be "smp_read_barrier_depends()".
We'd have to make up some new speciality barrier just for alpha, along
with the documentation for why it really is necessary.

Pull wchan kernel address hiding from Ingo Molnar:
 "This fixes a wchan related information leak in /proc/PID/stat.

  There's a bit of an ABI twist to it: instead of setting the wchan
  field to 0 (which is our usual technique) we set it conditionally to a
  0/1 flag to keep ABI compatibility with older procps versions that
  only fetches /proc/PID/wchan (symbolic names) if the absolute wchan
  address is nonzero"

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
 "In this ARM merge, we remove more lines than we add.  Changes include:

   - Enable imprecise aborts early, so that bus errors aren't masked
     until later in the boot.  This has the side effect that boot
     loaders which provoke these aborts can cause the kernel to crash
     early in boot, so we install a handler to report this event around
     the site where these are enabled.

   - Remove the buggy but impossible to enable cmpxchg syscall code.

   - Add unwinding annotations to some assembly code.

   - Add support for atomic half-word exchange for ARMv6k+.

   - Reduce ioremap() alignment for SMP/LPAE cases where we don't need
     the large alignment.

   - Addition of an "optimal" 3G configuration for systems with 1G of
     RAM.

   - Increase vmalloc space by 128M.

   - Constify some SMP operations structures, which have never been
     writable.

   - Improve ARMs dma_mmap() support for mapping DMA coherent mappings
     into userspace.

   - Fix to the NMI backtrace code in the IPI case on ARM where the
     failing CPU gets stuck for 10s waiting for its own IPI to be
     delivered.

   - Removal of legacy PM support from the AMBA bus driver.
