The sample events recorded by perf record are not time ordered
because we have one buffer per cpu for each event (even demultiplexed
per task/per cpu for task bound events). But when we read trace events
we want them to be ordered by time because many state machines are
involved.
There are currently two ways perf tools deal with that:
- use -M to multiplex every buffers (perf sched, perf kmem)
But this creates a lot of contention in SMP machines on
record time.
- use a post-processing time reordering (perf timechart, perf lock)
The reordering used by timechart is simple but doesn't scale well
with huge flow of events, in terms of performance and memory use
(unusable with perf lock for example).
Perf lock has its own samples reordering that flushes its memory
use in a regular basis and that uses a sorting based on the
previous event queued (a new event to be queued is close to the
previous one most of the time).
This patch proposes to export perf lock's samples reordering facility
to the session layer that reads the events. So if a tool wants to
get ordered sample events, it needs to set its
struct perf_event_ops::ordered_samples to true and that's it.
This prepares tracing based perf tools to get rid of the need to
use buffers multiplexing (-M) or to implement their own
reordering.
Also lower the flush period to 2 as it's sufficient already.

The parse_single_tracepoint_event() was setting some attributes
before it validated the event was indeed a tracepoint event. This
caused problems with other initialization routines like in the
builtin-top.c module whereby sample_period is not set if not 0.

Previous state machine of perf lock was really broken.
This patch improves it a little.
This patch prepares the list of state machine that represents
lock sequences for each threads.
These state machines can be one of these sequences:
1) acquire -> acquired -> release
2) acquire -> contended -> acquired -> release
3) acquire (w/ try) -> release
4) acquire (w/ read) -> release
The case of 4) is a little special.
Double acquire of read lock is allowed, so the state machine
counts read lock number, and permits double acquire and release.
But, things are not so simple. Something in my model is still wrong.
I counted the number of lock instances with bad sequence,
and ratio is like this (case of tracing whoami): bad:233, total:2279
version 2:
* threads are now identified with tid, not pid
* prepared SEQ_STATE_READ_ACQUIRED for read lock.
* bunch of struct lock_seq_stat is now linked list
* debug information enhanced (this have to be removed someday)
e.g.
| === output for debug===
|
| bad:233, total:2279
| bad rate:0.000000
| histogram of events caused bad sequence
| acquire: 165
| acquired: 0
| contended: 0
| release: 68

This patch (as1370) fixes a bug in the USB runtime power management
code. When a driver claims an interface, it doesn't expect to need to
call usb_autopm_get_interface() or usb_autopm_put_interface() for
runtime PM to work. Runtime PM can be controlled by the driver's
primary interface; the additional interfaces it claims shouldn't
interfere. As things stand, the claimed interfaces will prevent the
device from autosuspending.
To fix this problem, the patch sets interfaces to the suspended state
when they are claimed.
Also, although in theory this shouldn't matter, the patch changes the
suspend code so that interfaces are suspended in reverse order from
detection and resuming. This is how the PM core works, and we ought
to use the same approach.

This patch (as1363) changes the way USB remote wakeup is handled
during system sleeps. It won't be enabled unless an interface driver
specifically needs it. Also, it won't be enabled during the FREEZE or
QUIESCE phases of hibernation, when the system doesn't respond to
wakeup events anyway. Finally, if the device is already
runtime-suspended with remote wakeup enabled, but wakeup is supposed
to be disabled for the system sleep, the device gets woken up so that
it can be suspended again with the proper wakeup setting.
This will fix problems people have reported with certain USB webcams
that generate wakeup requests when they shouldn't, and as a result
cause system suspends to fail. See

The reipl device information is passed from the kernel to zfcpdump
using a pointer in the lowcore (0xe00) that points to the reipl
information Currently if that pointer is not zero, we copy the reipl
information. If the pointer is not initialized and points outside
the accessible memory, it can happen that the memory copy fails.
In that case we currently stop the initialization of zcore which leads
to a failing kernel dump. The correct behavior is to disable the reipl
after dump and continue with zcore intialization.

The s390x vdso did not use this adjusted multiplier. Instead, it used
the constant clock multiplier for gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()
variants. This may result in observable time warps as explained in
commit 0696b711e.

CRED: Fix double free in prepare_usermodehelper_creds() error handling
There is a typo here. We should be testing "*dentry" instead of
"dentry". If "*dentry" is an ERR_PTR, it gets dereferenced in either

This adds mappings from the register numbers from DWARF to the
register names used in the PowerPC Regs and Stack Access API. This
allows perf probe to be used to record variable contents on PowerPC.
This requires the functionality represented by the config symbol
HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API in order to function, although it will
compile without it. That functionality is added for PowerPC in commit
359e4284 ("powerpc: Add kprobe-based event tracer").
