Robert Richter 54f2c841fa oprofile: fix cpu buffer size
The unit of oprofile_cpu_buffer_size is in samples, but was allocated
in bytes. This led to the allocation of too small cpu buffers. This
patch recalculates the buffer size in bytes taking also the
ring_buffer_event header size into account.

Robert Richter 1acda878e2 oprofile: use new data sample format for ibs
The new ring buffer implementation allows the storage of samples with
different size. This patch implements the usage of the new sample
format to store ibs samples in the cpu buffer. Until now, writing to
the cpu buffer could lead to incomplete sampling sequences since IBS
samples were transfered in multiple samples. Due to a full buffer,
data could be lost at any time. This can't happen any more since the
complete data is reserved in advance and then stored in a single
sample.

Robert Richter ae735e9964 oprofile: rework implementation of cpu buffer events
Special events such as task or context switches are marked with an
escape code in the cpu buffer followed by an event code or a task
identifier. There is one escape code per event. To make escape
sequences also available for data samples the internal cpu buffer
format must be changed. The current implementation does not allow the
extension of event codes since this would lead to collisions with the
task identifiers. To avoid this, this patch introduces an event mask
that allows the storage of multiple events with one escape code. Now,
task identifiers are stored in the data section of the sample. The
implementation also allows the usage of custom data in a sample. As a
side effect the new code is much more readable and easier to
understand.

Nick Piggin c2452f3278 shrink struct dentry
struct dentry is one of the most critical structures in the kernel. So it's
sad to see it going neglected.

With CONFIG_PROFILING turned on (which is probably the common case at least
for distros and kernel developers), sizeof(struct dcache) == 208 here
(64-bit). This gives 19 objects per slab.

I packed d_mounted into a hole, and took another 4 bytes off the inline
name length to take the padding out from the end of the structure. This
shinks it to 200 bytes. I could have gone the other way and increased the
length to 40, but I'm aiming for a magic number, read on...

I then got rid of the d_cookie pointer. This shrinks it to 192 bytes. Rant:
why was this ever a good idea? The cookie system should increase its hash
size or use a tree or something if lookups are a problem. Also the "fast
dcookie lookups" in oprofile should be moved into the dcookie code -- how
can oprofile possibly care about the dcookie_mutex? It gets dropped after
get_dcookie() returns so it can't be providing any sort of protection.

At 192 bytes, 21 objects fit into a 4K page, saving about 3MB on my system
with ~140 000 entries allocated. 192 is also a multiple of 64, so we get
nice cacheline alignment on 64 and 32 byte line systems -- any given dentry
will now require 3 cachelines to touch all fields wheras previously it
would require 4.

I know the inline name size was chosen quite carefully, however with the
reduction in cacheline footprint, it should actually be just about as fast
to do a name lookup for a 36 character name as it was before the patch (and
faster for other sizes). The memory footprint savings for names which are
<= 32 or > 36 bytes long should more than make up for the memory cost for
33-36 byte names.

Performance is a feature...

Robert Richter 1d7503b5dc oprofile: remove nr_available_slots()
This function is no longer available after the port to the new ring
buffer. Its removal can lead to incomplete sampling sequences since
IBS samples and backtraces are transfered in multiple samples. Due to
a full buffer, samples could be lost any time. The userspace daemon
has to live with such incomplete sampling sequences as long as the
data within one sample is consistent.

This will be fixed by changing the internal buffer data there all data
of one IBS sample or a backtrace is packed in a single ring buffer
entry. This is possible since the new ring buffer supports variable
data size.

Robert Richter 6dad828b76 oprofile: port to the new ring_buffer
This patch replaces the current oprofile cpu buffer implementation
with the ring buffer provided by the tracing framework. The motivation
here is to leave the pain of implementing ring buffers to others. Oh,
no, there are more advantages. Main reason is the support of different
sample sizes that could be stored in the buffer. Use cases for this
are IBS and Cell spu profiling. Using the new ring buffer ensures
valid and complete samples and allows copying the cpu buffer stateless
without knowing its content. Second it will use generic kernel API and
also reduce code size. And hopefully, there are less bugs.

Since the new tracing ring buffer implementation uses spin locks to
protect the buffer during read/write access, it is difficult to use
the buffer in an NMI handler. In this case, writing to the buffer by
the NMI handler (x86) could occur also during critical sections when
reading the buffer. To avoid this, there are 2 buffers for independent
read and write access. Read access is in process context only, write
access only in the NMI handler. If the read buffer runs empty, both
buffers are swapped atomically. There is potentially a small window
during swapping where the buffers are disabled and samples could be
lost.

Using 2 buffers is a little bit overhead, but the solution is clear
and does not require changes in the ring buffer implementation. It can
be changed to a single buffer solution when the ring buffer access is
implemented as non-locking atomic code.

The new buffer requires more size to store the same amount of samples
because each sample includes an u32 header. Also, there is more code
to execute for buffer access. Nonetheless, the buffer implementation
is proven in the ftrace environment and worth to use also in oprofile.

Patches that changes the internal IBS buffer usage will follow.

Carl Love a5598ca0d4 powerpc/oprofile: Fix mutex locking for cell spu-oprofile
The issue is the SPU code is not holding the kernel mutex lock while
adding samples to the kernel buffer.

This patch creates per SPU buffers to hold the data.  Data
is added to the buffers from in interrupt context.  The data
is periodically pushed to the kernel buffer via a new Oprofile
function oprofile_put_buff(). The oprofile_put_buff() function
is called via a work queue enabling the funtion to acquire the
mutex lock.

The existing user controls for adjusting the per CPU buffer
size is used to control the size of the per SPU buffers.
Similarly, overflows of the SPU buffers are reported by
incrementing the per CPU buffer stats.  This eliminates the
need to have architecture specific controls for the per SPU
buffers which is not acceptable to the OProfile user tool
maintainer.

The export of the oprofile add_event_entry() is removed as it

Note, this patch has not addressed the issue of indexing arrays

Barry Kasindorf 9b1f261166 OProfile: Fix buffer synchronization for IBS
The patch is needed since there is some IBS code in add_ibs_begin()
that handles more than one sample per iteration. This requires calling
get_slots() during each loop.

This fixes the current problem, but a proper solution that reworks the
cpu buffer synchronization is needed here in the future.

Chris J Arges 4bd9b9dc97 oprofile: hotplug cpu fix
This patch addresses problems when hotplugging cpus while
profiling. Instead of allocating only online cpus, all possible cpu
buffers are allocated, which allows cpus to be onlined during
operation. If a cpu is offlined before profiling is shutdown
wq_sync_buffer checks for this condition then cancels this work and
does not sync this buffer.

Jason Yeh 1a960b402a Oprofile Multiplexing Patch
This patch introduces multiplexing support for the Oprofile kernel
module. It basically adds a new function pointer in oprofile_operator
allowing each architecture to supply its callback to switch between
different sets of event when the timer expires. Userspace tools can
modify the time slice through /dev/oprofile/time_slice.

It also modifies the number of counters exposed to the userspace through
/dev/oprofile. For example, the number of counters for AMD CPUs are
changed to 32 and multiplexed in the sets of 4.

This patch updates the existing arch/powerpc/oprofile/op_model_cell.c
to add in the SPU profiling capabilities.  In addition, a 'cell' subdirectory
was added to arch/powerpc/oprofile to hold Cell-specific SPU profiling code.
Exports spu_set_profile_private_kref and spu_get_profile_private_kref which
are used by OProfile to store private profile information in spufs data
structures.

Also incorporated several fixes from other patches (rrn).  Check pointer
returned from kzalloc.  Eliminated unnecessary cast.  Better error
handling and cleanup in the related area.  64-bit unsigned long parameter
was being demoted to 32-bit unsigned int and eventually promoted back to
unsigned long.

Alexey Dobriyan e8edc6e03a Detach sched.h from mm.h
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Cross-compile tested on

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up
	arm
	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig

Theodore Ts'o 8e18e2941c [PATCH] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_private
The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86.  (It would be more on an x86_64 system).  This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).

This patch:

The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer.  Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer.  This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.

David Howells 454e2398be [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mount
Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.

The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
pointers.  For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).

The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
superblock pointer.

This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing.  In
such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
and mnt_sb would be set directly.

The patch also makes the following changes:

 (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
     pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
     very little.

 (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
     normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
     always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().

 (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
     dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().

     This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
     aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
     currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
     and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
     dentries being left unculled.

     However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
     implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
     simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
     inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
     with child trees.

     [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.

 (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
     changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

the declaration.  This patch fixes all remaining occurrences of "inline
static" up with "static inline" in the entire kernel tree (140 occurrences in
47 files).

While making this change I came across a few lines with trailing whitespace
that I also fixed up, I have also added or removed a blank line or two here
and there, but there are no functional changes in the patch.

John Levon 0c0a400d1d [PATCH] oprofile: report anonymous region samples
The below patch passes samples from anonymous regions to userspace instead
of just dropping them.  This provides the support needed for reporting
anonymous-region code samples (today: basic accumulated results; later:
Java and other dynamically compiled code).

As this changes the format, an upgrade to the just-released 0.9 release of
the userspace tools is required.

This patch is based upon an earlier one by Will Cohen <wcohen@redhat.com>

Ingo Molnar 39c715b717 [PATCH] smp_processor_id() cleanup
This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that
Arjan van de Ven and I came up with.

The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API
spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the
usage side.

Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the
complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined
__smp_processor_id.

In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols:

 - smp_processor_id(): debug variant.

 - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing
   uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined
   by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h.

There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT:

 - debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to
                             smp_processor_id().

Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new
lib/smp_processor_id.c file.  All related comments got updated and/or
clarified.

I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86:

 {SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT}

I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT.  (Other
architectures are untested, but should work just fine.)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
