Pull second try at vfs part d#2 from Al Viro: "Miklos' first series (with do_lookup() rewrite split into edible chunks) + assorted bits and pieces. The 'untangling of do_lookup()' series is is a splitup of what used to be a monolithic patch from Miklos, so this series is basically "how do I convince myself that his patch is correct (or find a hole in it)". No holes found and I like the resulting cleanup, so in it went..." Changes from try 1: Fix a boot problem with selinux, and commit messages prettied up a bit. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (24 commits) vfs: fix out-of-date dentry_unhash() comment vfs: split __lookup_hash untangling do_lookup() - take __lookup_hash()-calling case out of line. untangling do_lookup() - switch to calling __lookup_hash() untangling do_lookup() - merge d_alloc_and_lookup() callers untangling do_lookup() - merge failure exits in !dentry case untangling do_lookup() - massage !dentry case towards __lookup_hash() untangling do_lookup() - get rid of need_reval in !dentry case untangling do_lookup() - eliminate a loop. untangling do_lookup() - expand the area under ->i_mutex untangling do_lookup() - isolate !dentry stuff from the rest of it. vfs: move MAY_EXEC check from __lookup_hash() vfs: don't revalidate just looked up dentry vfs: fix d_need_lookup/d_revalidate order in do_lookup ext3: move headers to fs/ext3/ migrate ext2_fs.h guts to fs/ext2/ext2.h new helper: ext2_image_size() get rid of pointless includes of ext2_fs.h ext2: No longer export ext2_fs.h to user space mtdchar: kill persistently held vfsmount ...

Pull perf updates and fixes from Ingo Molnar: "It's mostly fixes, but there's also two late items: - preliminary GTK GUI support for perf report - PMU raw event format descriptors in sysfs, to be parsed by tooling The raw event format in sysfs is a new ABI. For example for the 'CPU' PMU we have: aldebaran:~> ll /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/* -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/any -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/cmask -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/edge -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/event -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/inv -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/offcore_rsp -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/pc -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/umask those lists of fields contain a specific format: aldebaran:~> cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/offcore_rsp config1:0-63 So, those who wish to specify raw events can now use the following event format: -e cpu/cmask=1,event=2,umask=3 Most people will not want to specify any events (let alone raw events), they'll just use whatever default event the tools use. But for more obscure PMU events that have no cross-architecture generic events the above syntax is more usable and a bit more structured than specifying hex numbers." * 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (41 commits) perf tools: Remove auto-generated bison/flex files perf annotate: Fix off by one symbol hist size allocation and hit accounting perf tools: Add missing ref-cycles event back to event parser perf annotate: addr2line wants addresses in same format as objdump perf probe: Finder fails to resolve function name to address tracing: Fix ent_size in trace output perf symbols: Handle NULL dso in dso__name_len perf symbols: Do not include libgen.h perf tools: Fix bug in raw sample parsing perf tools: Fix display of first level of callchains perf tools: Switch module.h into export.h perf: Move mmap page data_head offset assertion out of header perf: Fix mmap_page capabilities and docs perf diff: Fix to work with new hists design perf tools: Fix modifier to be applied on correct events perf tools: Fix various casting issues for 32 bits perf tools: Simplify event_read_id exit path tracing: Fix ftrace stack trace entries tracing: Move the tracing_on/off() declarations into CONFIG_TRACING perf report: Add a simple GTK2-based 'perf report' browser ...

Split __lookup_hash into two component functions: lookup_dcache - tries cached lookup, returns whether real lookup is needed lookup_real - calls i_op->lookup This eliminates code duplication between d_alloc_and_lookup() and d_inode_lookup().

Everything arriving into if (!dentry) will have need_reval = 1. Indeed, the only way to get there with need_reval reset to 0 would be via if (unlikely(d_need_lookup(dentry))) goto unlazy; if (unlikely(dentry->d_flags & DCACHE_OP_REVALIDATE)) { status = d_revalidate(dentry, nd); if (unlikely(status <= 0)) { if (status != -ECHILD) need_reval = 0; goto unlazy; ... unlazy: /* no assignments to dentry */ if (dentry && unlikely(d_need_lookup(dentry))) { dput(dentry); dentry = NULL; } and if d_need_lookup() had already been false the first time around, it will remain false on the second call as well.

d_lookup() *will* fail after successful d_invalidate(), if we are holding i_mutex all along. IOW, we don't need to jump back to l: - we know what path will be taken there and can do that (i.e. d_alloc_and_lookup()) directly. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Duplicate the revalidation-related parts into if (!dentry) branch. Next step will be to pull them under i_mutex. This and the next 8 commits are more or less a splitup of patch by Miklos; folks, when you are working with something that convoluted, carve your patches up into easily reviewed steps, especially when a lot of codepaths involved are rarely hit...

__lookup_hash() calls ->lookup() if the dentry needs lookup and on success revalidates the dentry (all under dir->i_mutex). While this is harmless it doesn't make a lot of sense. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Since 3.2.12 and 3.3, some systems are failing to boot with a BUG_ON. Some other systems using the pata_jmicron driver fail to boot because no disks are detected. Passing pcie_aspm=force on the kernel command line works around it. The cause: commit 4949be16 ("PCI: ignore pre-1.1 ASPM quirking when ASPM is disabled") changed the behaviour of pcie_aspm_sanity_check() to always return 0 if aspm is disabled, in order to avoid cases where we changed ASPM state on pre-PCIe 1.1 devices. This skipped the secondary function of pcie_aspm_sanity_check which was to avoid us enabling ASPM on devices that had non-PCIe children, causing trouble later on. Move the aspm_disabled check so we continue to honour that scenario.

Now that all the slow-path code is gone from these functions, we can inline them into the main caller - avc_has_perm_flags(). Now the compiler can see that 'avc' is allocated on the stack for this case, which helps register pressure a bit. It also actually shrinks the total stack frame, because the stack frame that avc_has_perm_flags() always needed (for that 'avc' allocation) is now sufficient for the inlined functions too. Inlining isn't bad - but mindless inlining of cold code (see the previous commit) is. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The selinux AVC paths remain some of the hottest (and deepest) codepaths at filename lookup time, and we make it worse by having the slow path cases take up I$ and stack space even when they don't trigger. Gcc tends to always want to inline functions that are just called once - never mind that this might make for slower and worse code in the caller. So this tries to improve on it a bit by making the slow-path cases explicitly separate functions that are marked noinline, causing gcc to at least no longer allocate stack space for them unless they are actually called. It also seems to help register allocation a tiny bit, since gcc now doesn't take the slow case code into account. Uninlining the slow path may also allow us to inline the remaining hot path into the one caller that actually matters: avc_has_perm_flags(). I'll have to look at that separately, but both avc_audit() and avc_has_perm_noaudit() are now small and lean enough that inlining them may make sense.

The function for_each_cpu_mask() expects a *pointer* to struct cpumask as its second argument, whereas select_fallback_rq() passes the value itself. And moreover, for_each_cpu_mask() has been marked as obselete in include/linux/cpumask.h. So move to the more appropriate for_each_cpu() variant.
