Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "Along with the usual minor fixes and clean ups there are a few major
  changes with this pull request.

   1) Multiple buffers for the ftrace facility

  This feature has been requested by many people over the last few
  years.  I even heard that Google was about to implement it themselves.
  I finally had time and cleaned up the code such that you can now
  create multiple instances of the ftrace buffer and have different
  events go to different buffers.  This way, a low frequency event will
  not be lost in the noise of a high frequency event.

  Note, currently only events can go to different buffers, the tracers
  (ie function, function_graph and the latency tracers) still can only
  be written to the main buffer.

   2) The function tracer triggers have now been extended.

  The function tracer had two triggers.  One to enable tracing when a
  function is hit, and one to disable tracing.  Now you can record a
  stack trace on a single (or many) function(s), take a snapshot of the
  buffer (copy it to the snapshot buffer), and you can enable or disable
  an event to be traced when a function is hit.

   3) A perf clock has been added.

  A "perf" clock can be chosen to be used when tracing.  This will cause
  ftrace to use the same clock as perf uses, and hopefully this will
  make it easier to interleave the perf and ftrace data for analysis."

This reverts commit 3a366e614d0837d9fc23f78cdb1a1186ebc3387f.

Wanlong Gao reports that it causes a kernel panic on his machine several
minutes after boot. Reverting it removes the panic.

Jens says:
 "It's not quite clear why that is yet, so I think we should just revert
  the commit for 3.9 final (which I'm assuming is pretty close).

  The wifi is crap at the LSF hotel, so sending this email instead of
  queueing up a revert and pull request."

<title>tracing: Consolidate max_tr into main trace_array structure</title>

<id>urn:sha1:12883efb670c28dff57dcd7f4f995a1ffe153b2d</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the way the latency tracers and snapshot feature works
is to have a separate trace_array called "max_tr" that holds the
snapshot buffer. For latency tracers, this snapshot buffer is used
to swap the running buffer with this buffer to save the current max
latency.

The only items needed for the max_tr is really just a copy of the buffer
itself, the per_cpu data pointers, the time_start timestamp that states
when the max latency was triggered, and the cpu that the max latency
was triggered on. All other fields in trace_array are unused by the
max_tr, making the max_tr mostly bloat.

This change removes the max_tr completely, and adds a new structure
called trace_buffer, that holds the buffer pointer, the per_cpu data
pointers, the time_start timestamp, and the cpu where the latency occurred.

The trace_array, now has two trace_buffers, one for the normal trace and
one for the max trace or snapshot. By doing this, not only do we remove
the bloat from the max_trace but the instances of traces can now use
their own snapshot feature and not have just the top level global_trace have
the snapshot feature and latency tracers for itself.

Pull block IO core bits from Jens Axboe:
 "Below are the core block IO bits for 3.9.  It was delayed a few days
  since my workstation kept crashing every 2-8h after pulling it into
  current -git, but turns out it is a bug in the new pstate code (divide
  by zero, will report separately).  In any case, it contains:

   - The big cfq/blkcg update from Tejun and and Vivek.

   - Additional block and writeback tracepoints from Tejun.

   - Improvement of the should sort (based on queues) logic in the plug
     flushing.

   - _io() variants of the wait_for_completion() interface, using
     io_schedule() instead of schedule() to contribute to io wait
     properly.

   - Various little fixes.

  You'll get two trivial merge conflicts, which should be easy enough to
  fix up"

Fix up the trivial conflicts due to hlist traversal cleanups (commit
b67bfe0d42ca: "hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators").

typeof(&amp;buffer) is a pointer to array of 1024 char, or char (*)[1024].
But, typeof(&amp;buffer[0]) is a pointer to char which match the return type of get_trace_buf().
As well-known, the value of &amp;buffer is equal to &amp;buffer[0].
so return this_cpu_ptr(&amp;percpu_buffer-&gt;buffer[0]) can avoid type cast.

bio_{front|back}_merge tracepoints report a bio merging into an
existing request but didn't specify which request the bio is being
merged into.  Add @req to it.  This makes it impossible to share the
event template with block_bio_queue - split it out.

@req isn't used or exported to userland at this point and there is no
userland visible behavior change.  Later changes will make use of the
extra parameter.

bio completion didn't kick block_bio_complete TP.  Only dm was
explicitly triggering the TP on IO completion.  This makes
block_bio_complete TP useless for tracers which want to know about
bios, and all other bio based drivers skip generating blktrace
completion events.

This patch makes all bio completions via bio_endio() generate
block_bio_complete TP.

* Explicit trace_block_bio_complete() invocation removed from dm and
  the trace point is unexported.

* @rq dropped from trace_block_bio_complete().  bios may fly around
  w/o queue associated.  Verifying and accessing the assocaited queue
  belongs to TP probes.

* blktrace now gets both request and bio completions.  Make it ignore
  bio completions if request completion path is happening.

This makes all bio based drivers generate blktrace completion events
properly and makes the block_bio_complete TP actually useful.

v2: With this change, block_bio_complete TP could be invoked on sg
    commands which have bio's with %NULL bi_bdev.  Update TP
    assignment code to check whether bio-&gt;bi_bdev is %NULL before
    dereferencing.

Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when
they want to support a custom read/write function op.  This leads to a
proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire
tree.

Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we
can replace all the users of this function with simple_open().

This replacement was done with the following semantic patch:

&lt;smpl&gt;
@ open @
identifier open_f != simple_open;
identifier i, f;
@@
-int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f)
-{
(
-if (i-&gt;i_private)
-f-&gt;private_data = i-&gt;i_private;
|
-f-&gt;private_data = i-&gt;i_private;
)
-return 0;
-}

@ has_open depends on open @
identifier fops;
identifier open.open_f;
@@
struct file_operations fops = {
...
-.open = open_f,
+.open = simple_open,
...
};
&lt;/smpl&gt;
