tracing, sched, vfs: Fix 'old_pid' usage in trace_sched_process_exec()

2012-03-31T09:53:22Z

1. TRACE_EVENT(sched_process_exec) forgets to actually use the old pid argument, it sets ->old_pid = p->pid. 2. search_binary_handler() uses the wrong pid number. tracepoint needs the global pid_t from the root namespace, while old_pid is the virtual pid number as it seen by the tracer/parent. With this patch we have two pid_t's in search_binary_handler(), not really nice. Perhaps we should switch to "struct pid*", but in this case it would be better to cleanup the current code first and move the "depth == 0" code outside.

Pull btrfs fixes and features from Chris Mason: "We've merged in the error handling patches from SuSE. These are already shipping in the sles kernel, and they give btrfs the ability to abort transactions and go readonly on errors. It involves a lot of churn as they clarify BUG_ONs, and remove the ones we now properly deal with. Josef reworked the way our metadata interacts with the page cache. page->private now points to the btrfs extent_buffer object, which makes everything faster. He changed it so we write an whole extent buffer at a time instead of allowing individual pages to go down,, which will be important for the raid5/6 code (for the 3.5 merge window ;) Josef also made us more aggressive about dropping pages for metadata blocks that were freed due to COW. Overall, our metadata caching is much faster now. We've integrated my patch for metadata bigger than the page size. This allows metadata blocks up to 64KB in size. In practice 16K and 32K seem to work best. For workloads with lots of metadata, this cuts down the size of the extent allocation tree dramatically and fragments much less. Scrub was updated to support the larger block sizes, which ended up being a fairly large change (thanks Stefan Behrens). We also have an assortment of fixes and updates, especially to the balancing code (Ilya Dryomov), the back ref walker (Jan Schmidt) and the defragging code (Liu Bo)." Fixed up trivial conflicts in fs/btrfs/scrub.c that were just due to removal of the second argument to k[un]map_atomic() in commit 7ac687d9e047. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs: (75 commits) Btrfs: update the checks for mixed block groups with big metadata blocks Btrfs: update to the right index of defragment Btrfs: do not bother to defrag an extent if it is a big real extent Btrfs: add a check to decide if we should defrag the range Btrfs: fix recursive defragment with autodefrag option Btrfs: fix the mismatch of page->mapping Btrfs: fix race between direct io and autodefrag Btrfs: fix deadlock during allocating chunks Btrfs: show useful info in space reservation tracepoint Btrfs: don't use crc items bigger than 4KB Btrfs: flush out and clean up any block device pages during mount btrfs: disallow unequal data/metadata blocksize for mixed block groups Btrfs: enhance superblock sanity checks Btrfs: change scrub to support big blocks Btrfs: minor cleanup in scrub Btrfs: introduce common define for max number of mirrors Btrfs: fix infinite loop in btrfs_shrink_device() Btrfs: fix memory leak in resolver code Btrfs: allow dup for data chunks in mixed mode Btrfs: validate target profiles only if we are going to use them ...

2012-03-24T17:41:37Z

Pull avoidance patches from Paul Gortmaker: "Nearly every subsystem has some kind of header with a proto like: void foo(struct device *dev); and yet there is no reason for most of these guys to care about the sub fields within the device struct. This allows us to significantly reduce the scope of headers including headers. For this instance, a reduction of about 40% is achieved by replacing the include with the simple fact that the device is some kind of a struct. Unlike the much larger module.h cleanup, this one is simply two commits. One to fix the implicit users, and then one to delete the device.h includes from the linux/include/ dir wherever possible." * tag 'device-for-3.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux: device.h: audit and cleanup users in main include dir device.h: cleanup users outside of linux/include (C files)

Pull regmap updates from Mark Brown: "Things are really quieting down with the regmap API, while we're still seeing a trickle of new features coming in they're getting much smaller than they were. It's also nice to have some features which support other subsystems building infrastructure on top of regmap. Highlights include: - Support for padding between the register and the value when interacting with the device, sometimes needed for fast interfaces. - Support for applying register updates to the device when restoring the register state. This is intended to be used to apply updates supplied by manufacturers for tuning the performance of the device (many of which are to undocumented registers which aren't otherwise covered). - Support for multi-register operations on cached registers. - Support for syncing only part of the register cache. - Stubs and parameter query functions intended to make it easier for other subsystems to build infrastructure on top of the regmap API. plus a few driver updates making use of the new features which it was easier to merge via this tree." * tag 'regmap-3.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regmap: (41 commits) regmap: Fix future missing prototype of devres_alloc() and friends regmap: Rejig struct declarations for stubbed API regmap: Fix rbtree block base in sync regcache: Make sure we sync register 0 in an rbtree cache regmap: delete unused module.h from drivers/base/regmap files regmap: Add stub for regcache_sync_region() mfd: Improve performance of later WM1811 revisions regmap: Fix x86_64 breakage regmap: Allow drivers to sync only part of the register cache regmap: Supply ranges to the sync operations regmap: Add tracepoints for cache only and cache bypass regmap: Mark the cache as clean after a successful sync regmap: Remove default cache sync implementation regmap: Skip hardware defaults for LZO caches regmap: Expose the driver name in debugfs mfd: wm8400: Convert to devm_regmap_init_i2c() mfd: wm831x: Convert to devm_regmap_init() mfd: wm8994: Convert to devm_regmap_init() mfd/ASoC: Convert WM8994 driver to use regmap patches mfd: Add __devinit and __devexit annotations in wm8994 ...

Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar: - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and the tooling side, on CPUs that support it. (modern x86 Intel CPUs with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.) This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from regular, function histogram centric profiles. The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result looks like this in perf report: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy $ perf report -b --sort=symbol 52.34% [.] main [.] f1 24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3 23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2 0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul 0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal 0.01% [k] main [k] __printf This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system calls, traps, interrupts, etc. This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI support in perf report. - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies. It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other improvements. - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc. - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h generic facility: struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE; ... if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as little impact to the likely code path as possible. the static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching. This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key usage and fast/slow cost patterns. - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support. - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows better, etc. - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes', and a corner case bugfix. - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk). - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side. - 'perf bench' improvements - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made these features possible.
