Cross compiling perf requires setting ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE variables, but libtraceevent couldn't detect the changes so it ends up believing no recompiling is required. Thus the linker failed like: LINK perf ../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a: member ../lib/traceevent//libtraceevent.a(event-parse.o) in archive is not an object collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [perf] Error 1 This patch fixes this by adding TRACEEVENT-CFLAGS file like PERF-CFLAGS to track those changes.

Bison 2.6 started to generate parse_events_parse() declaration in header. In this case we have redundant redeclaration: util/parse-events.c:29:5: error: redundant redeclaration of ‘parse_events_parse’ [-Werror=redundant-decls] In file included from util/parse-events.c:14:0: util/parse-events-bison.h:99:5: note: previous declaration of ‘parse_events_parse’ was here cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Let's disable -Wredundant-decls for util/parse-events.c since it includes header we can't control.

Perf uses GNU-specific version of strerror_r(). The GNU-specific strerror_r() returns a pointer to a string containing the error message. This may be either a pointer to a string that the function stores in buf, or a pointer to some (immutable) static string (in which case buf is unused). In glibc-2.16 GNU version was marked with attribute warn_unused_result. It triggers few warnings in perf: util/target.c: In function ‘perf_target__strerror’: util/target.c:114:13: error: ignoring return value of ‘strerror_r’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result] ui/browsers/hists.c: In function ‘hist_browser__dump’: ui/browsers/hists.c:981:13: error: ignoring return value of ‘strerror_r’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result] They are bugs. Let's fix strerror_r() usage. Signed-off-by:

There have one problem about hw_breakpoint perf event, as watched, the events reported to userspace is not correctly, sometime one trigger bp_event report several events, sometime bp_event cannot go through to user. The root cause is attr->freq is 1 passed to kernel defaultly in bp events, this make kernel calculate event period not as expect, make sample period to 1 will change attr->freq to 0, to fix this problem. This patch is similar with commit f92128 about tracepoint events: perf: Make the trace events sample period default to 1 Signed-off-by:Jovi Zhang <bookjovi@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/CACV3sbLF8taiCq_VYW-sgRJyupeMzg58C7ZXfMe3xZUiH_Mx6w@mail.gmail.comSigned-off-by:

Adding dso data caching so we don't need to open/read/close, each time we want dso data. The DSO data caching affects following functions: dso__data_read_offset dso__data_read_addr Each DSO read tries to find the data (based on offset) inside the cache. If it's not present it fills the cache from file, and returns the data. If it is present, data are returned with no file read. Each data read is cached by reading cache page sized/aligned amount of DSO data. The cache page size is hardcoded to 4096. The cache is using RB tree with file offset as a sort key. Signed-off-by:

Adding following interface for DSO object to allow reading of DSO image data: dso__data_fd - opens DSO and returns file descriptor Binary types are used to locate/open DSO in following order: DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BUILD_ID_CACHE DSO_BINARY_TYPE__SYSTEM_PATH_DSO In other word we first try to open DSO build-id path, and if that fails we try to open DSO system path. dso__data_read_offset - reads DSO data from specified offset dso__data_read_addr - reads DSO data from specified address/map.

Trace events have a period (weight) of 1 by default. This can be overriden on events definition by using the __perf_count() macro. For example, the sched_stat_runtime() is weighted with the runtime of the task that fired the event. By default, perf handles such weighted event by dividing it into individual events carrying a weight of 1. For example if sched_stat_runtime is fired and the task has run 5000000 nsecs, perf divides it into 5000000 events in the buffer. This behaviour makes weighted events unusable because they quickly fullfill the buffers and we lose most events. The commit 5d81e5cf ("events: Don't divide events if it has field period") solves this problem by sending only one event when PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD flag is set. The weight is carried in the sample itself such that we don't need to demultiplex it anymore. This patch provides the last missing piece to use this feature by setting PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD from perf tools when we deal with trace events.

After a maddening 2 days sifting through perf minutia I found it -- id_hdr_size is not initialized for guest machines.

COMM events are not generated in the context of a guest machine, so the thread name is never set for the VMM process. For example, the qemu-kvm name applies to the process in the host machine, not the guest machine. So, samples for guest machines are currently displayed as: 99.67% :5671 [unknown] [g] 0xffffffff81366b41 where 5671 is the pid of the VMM. With this patch the samples in the guest machine are shown as: 18.43% [guest/5671] [unknown] [g] 0xffffffff810d68b7 Tested-by:

Dave Jones and others have hit and reported this bug (Sasha Levin) 18) Some drivers (b44 and b43legacy) on 64-bit machines stopped working because of how netdev_alloc_skb() was adjusted. Such drivers should now use alloc_skb() for obtaining bounce buffers. (Eric Dumazet) 19) atl1c mis-managed it's link state in that it stops the queue by hand on link down. The generic networking takes care of that and this double stop locks the queue down.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== I know that we're in fairly late stage to request pulls, but the IPVS people pinged me with little patches with oops fixes last week. One of them was recently introduced (during the 3.4 development cycle) while cleaning up the IPVS netns support. They are: * Fix one regression introduced in 3.4 while cleaning up the netns support for IPVS, from Julian Anastasov. * Fix one oops triggered due to resetting the conntrack attached to the skb instead of just putting it in the forward hook, from Lin Ming. This problem seems to be there since 2.6.37 according to Simon Horman. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When rpmsg drivers are built into the kernel, they must not initialize before the rpmsg bus does, otherwise they'd trigger a BUG() in drivers/base/driver.c line 169 (driver_register()). To fix that, and to stop depending on arbitrary linkage ordering of those built-in rpmsg drivers, we make the rpmsg bus initialize at subsys_initcall.

After commit 39f618b4 (3.4) "ipvs: reset ipvs pointer in netns" we can oops in ip_vs_dst_event on rmmod ip_vs because ip_vs_control_cleanup is called after the ipvs_core_ops subsys is unregistered and net->ipvs is NULL. Fix it by exiting early from ip_vs_dst_event if ipvs is NULL. It is safe because all services and dests for the net are already freed. Signed-off-by:

there are some out of bound accesses in netprio cgroup. now before accessing the dev->priomap.priomap array,we only check if the dev->priomap exist.and because we don't want to see additional bound checkings in fast path, so we should make sure that dev->priomap is null or array size of dev->priomap.priomap is equal to max_prioidx + 1; so in write_priomap logic,we should call extend_netdev_table when dev->priomap is null and dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len. and in cgrp_create->update_netdev_tables logic,we should call extend_netdev_table only when dev->priomap exist and dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len. and it's not needed to call update_netdev_tables in write_priomap, we can only allocate the net device's priomap which we change through net_prio.ifpriomap. this patch also add a return value for update_netdev_tables & extend_netdev_table, so when new_priomap is allocated failed, write_priomap will stop to access the priomap,and return -ENOMEM back to the userspace to tell the user what happend. Change From v3: 1. add rtnl protect when reading max_prioidx in write_priomap. 2. only call extend_netdev_table when map->priomap_len < max_len, this will make sure array size of dev->map->priomap always bigger than any prioidx. 3. add a function write_update_netdev_table to make codes clear. Change From v2: 1. protect extend_netdev_table by RTNL. 2. when extend_netdev_table failed,call dev_put to reduce device's refcount. Signed-off-by:

The commit 4197aa7b implements 64 bit per ring statistics. But the driver resets the 'total_bytes' and 'total_packets' from RX and TX rings in the RX and TX interrupt handlers to zero. This results in statistics being lost and user space reporting RX and TX statistics as zero. This patch addresses the issue by preventing the resetting of RX and TX ring statistics to zero.

As a result, we get a gpf when traversing the hashtable while a freed node corrupts part of the list. Nominally I would think that an mibalanced refcount was responsible for this, but I can't seem to find any obvious imbalance. What I did note however was that the two places where we create an association using sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE (__sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg), have failure paths which free a newly created association after calling sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE. sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE brings us into the sctp_sf_do_prm_asoc path, which issues a SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC side effect, which in turn adds a new association to the aforementioned hash table. the sctp command interpreter that process side effects has not way to unwind previously processed commands, so freeing the association from the __sctp_connect or sctp_sendmsg error path would lead to a freed association remaining on this hash table. I've fixed this but modifying sctp_[un]hash_established to use hlist_del_init, which allows us to proerly use hlist_unhashed to check if the node is on a hashlist safely during a delete. That in turn alows us to safely call sctp_unhash_established in the __sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg error paths before freeing them, regardles of what the associations state is on the hash list. I noted, while I was doing this, that the __sctp_unhash_endpoint was using hlist_unhsashed in a simmilar fashion, but never nullified any removed nodes pointers to make that function work properly, so I fixed that up in a simmilar fashion. I attempted to test this using a virtual guest running the SCTP_RR test from netperf in a loop while running the trinity fuzzer, both in a loop. I wasn't able to recreate the problem prior to this fix, nor was I able to trigger the failure after (neither of which I suppose is suprising). Given the trace above however, I think its likely that this is what we hit. Signed-off-by:

The leap second rework unearthed another issue of inconsistent data. On timekeeping_resume() the timekeeper data is updated, but nothing calls timekeeping_update(), so now the update code in the timer interrupt sees stale values. This has been the case before those changes, but then the timer interrupt was using stale data as well so this went unnoticed for quite some time. Add the missing update call, so all the data is consistent everywhere. Reported-by:

Some desktop environments carefully save and restore the brightness settings from the previous boot. Unfortunately they don't all check to see if the range has changed. The end result is that they restore a brightness of 100/lots not 100/100. As the old driver and the non-free GMA36xx driver both use 0-100 we thus need to go back doing the same thing to avoid users getting a mysterious black screen after boot. Signed-off-by:
