Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "Kernel side changes: - Improve accuracy of perf/sched clock on x86. (Adrian Hunter) - Intel DS and BTS updates. (Alexander Shishkin) - Intel cstate PMU support. (Kan Liang) - Add group read support to perf_event_read(). (Peter Zijlstra) - Branch call hardware sampling support, implemented on x86 and PowerPC. (Stephane Eranian) - Event groups transactional interface enhancements. (Sukadev Bhattiprolu) - Enable proper x86/intel/uncore PMU support on multi-segment PCI systems. (Taku Izumi) - ... 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] task-clock [Software event] uncore_cbox_0/clockticks/ [Kernel PMU event] uncore_cbox_1/clockticks/ [Kernel PMU event] kvm:kvm_pvclock_update [Tracepoint event] kvm:kvm_update_master_clock [Tracepoint event] power:clock_disable [Tracepoint event] power:clock_enable [Tracepoint event] power:clock_set_rate [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_enter_clock_adjtime [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_enter_clock_getres [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_enter_clock_gettime [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_enter_clock_nanosleep [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_enter_clock_settime [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_exit_clock_adjtime [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_exit_clock_getres [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_exit_clock_gettime [Tracepoint event] syscalls:sys_exit_clock_nanosleep [Tracepoint 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) - ... plus lots of other enhancements that I failed to list properly, by: Adrian Hunter, Alexander Shishkin, Andi Kleen, Andrzej Hajda, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Dima Kogan, Don Zickus, Geliang Tang, He Kuang, Huaitong Han, Ingo Molnar, Jan Stancek, Jiri Olsa, Kan Liang, Kirill Tkhai, Masami Hiramatsu, Matt Fleming, Namhyung Kim, Paolo Bonzini, Peter Zijlstra, Rabin Vincent, Scott Wood, Stephane Eranian, Sukadev Bhattiprolu, Taku Izumi, Vaishali Thakkar, Wang Nan, Yang Shi and Yunlong Song" * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (260 commits) perf unwind: Pass symbol source to libunwind tools build: Fix libiberty feature detection perf tools: Compile scriptlets to BPF objects when passing '.c' to --event perf record: Add clang options for compiling BPF scripts perf bpf: Attach eBPF filter to perf event perf tools: Make sure fixdep is built before libbpf perf script: Enable printing of branch stack perf trace: Add cmd string table to decode sys_bpf first arg perf bpf: Collect perf_evsel in BPF object files perf tools: Load eBPF object into kernel perf tools: Create probe points for BPF programs perf tools: Enable passing bpf object file to --event perf ebpf: Add the libbpf glue perf tools: Make perf depend on libbpf perf symbols: Fix endless loop in dso__split_kallsyms_for_kcore perf tools: Enable pre-event inherit setting by config terms perf symbols: we can now read separate debug-info files based on a build ID perf symbols: Fix type error when reading a build-id perf tools: Search for more options when passing args to -h perf stat: Cache aggregated map entries in extra cpumap ...

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.

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. - Another fix for the previous fix of vdsomunge" * 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (23 commits) ARM: 8449/1: fix bug in vdsomunge swab32 macro arm: add missing of_node_put ARM: 8447/1: catch pending imprecise abort on unmask ARM: 8446/1: amba: Remove unused callbacks for legacy system PM ARM: 8443/1: Adding support for atomic half word exchange ARM: clean up TWD after previous patch ARM: 8441/2: twd: Don't set CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP unconditionally ARM: 8440/1: remove obsolete documentation ARM: make highpte an expert option ARM: 8433/1: add a VMSPLIT_3G_OPT config option ARM: 8439/1: Fix backtrace generation when IPI is masked ARM: 8428/1: kgdb: Fix registers on sleeping tasks ARM: 8427/1: dma-mapping: add support for offset parameter in dma_mmap() ARM: 8426/1: dma-mapping: add missing range check in dma_mmap() ARM: remove user cmpxchg syscall ARM: 8438/1: Add unwinding to __clear_user_std() ARM: 8436/1: hw_breakpoint: remove unnecessary header ARM: 8434/2: Revert "7655/1: smp_twd: make twd_local_timer_of_register() no-op for nosmp" ARM: 8432/1: move VMALLOC_END from 0xff000000 to 0xff800000 ARM: 8430/1: use default ioremap alignment for SMP or LPAE ...

This patch adds device tree support for the netxbig LEDs. This also introduces a additionnal DT binding for the GPIO extension bus (netxbig-gpio-ext) used to configure the LEDs. Since this bus could also be used to control other devices, then it seems more suitable to have it in a separate DT binding.
