Impact: new functionality
Currently, if there are more counters enabled than can fit on the CPU,
the kernel will multiplex the counters on to the hardware using
round-robin scheduling. That isn't too bad for sampling counters, but
for counting counters it means that the value read from a counter
represents some unknown fraction of the true count of events that
occurred while the counter was enabled.
This remedies the situation by keeping track of how long each counter
is enabled for, and how long it is actually on the cpu and counting
events. These times are recorded in nanoseconds using the task clock
for per-task counters and the cpu clock for per-cpu counters.
These values can be supplied to userspace on a read from the counter.
Userspace requests that they be supplied after the counter value by
setting the PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED and/or
PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING bits in the hw_event.read_format field
when creating the counter. (There is no way to change the read format
after the counter is created, though it would be possible to add some
way to do that.)
Using this information it is possible for userspace to scale the count
it reads from the counter to get an estimate of the true count:
true_count_estimate = count * total_time_enabled / total_time_running
This also lets userspace detect the situation where the counter never
got to go on the cpu: total_time_running == 0.
This functionality has been requested by the PAPI developers, and will
be generally needed for interpreting the count values from counting
counters correctly.
In the implementation, this keeps 5 time values (in nanoseconds) for
each counter: total_time_enabled and total_time_running are used when
the counter is in state OFF or ERROR and for reporting back to
userspace. When the counter is in state INACTIVE or ACTIVE, it is the
tstamp_enabled, tstamp_running and tstamp_stopped values that are
relevant, and total_time_enabled and total_time_running are determined
from them. (tstamp_stopped is only used in INACTIVE state.) The
reason for doing it like this is that it means that only counters
being enabled or disabled at sched-in and sched-out time need to be
updated. There are no new loops that iterate over all counters to
update total_time_enabled or total_time_running.
This also keeps separate child_total_time_running and
child_total_time_enabled fields that get added in when reporting the
totals to userspace. They are separate fields so that they can be
atomic. We don't want to use atomics for total_time_running,
total_time_enabled etc., because then we would have to use atomic
sequences to update them, which are slower than regular arithmetic and
memory accesses.
It is possible to measure total_time_running by adding a task_clock
counter to each group of counters, and total_time_enabled can be
measured approximately with a top-level task_clock counter (though
inaccuracies will creep in if you need to disable and enable groups
since it is not possible in general to disable/enable the top-level
task_clock counter simultaneously with another group). However, that
adds extra overhead - I measured around 15% increase in the context
switch latency reported by lat_ctx (from lmbench) when a task_clock
counter was added to each of 2 groups, and around 25% increase when a
task_clock counter was added to each of 4 groups. (In both cases a
top-level task-clock counter was also added.)
In contrast, the code added in this commit gives better information
with no overhead that I could measure (in fact in some cases I
measured lower times with this code, but the differences were all less
than one standard deviation).

Impact: Rework the perfcounter output ABI
use sys_read() only for instant data and provide mmap() output for all
async overflow data.
The first mmap() determines the size of the output buffer. The mmap()
size must be a PAGE_SIZE multiple of 1+pages, where pages must be a
power of 2 or 0. Further mmap()s of the same fd must have the same
size. Once all maps are gone, you can again mmap() with a new size.
In case of 0 extra pages there is no data output and the first page
only contains meta data.
When there are data pages, a poll() event will be generated for each
full page of data. Furthermore, the output is circular. This means
that although 1 page is a valid configuration, its useless, since
we'll start overwriting it the instant we report a full page.
Future work will focus on the output format (currently maintained)
where we'll likey want each entry denoted by a header which includes a
type and length.
Further future work will allow to splice() the fd, also containing the
async overflow data -- splice() would be mutually exclusive with
mmap() of the data.

Impact: new feature giving performance improvement
This adds the ability for userspace to do an mmap on a hardware counter
fd and get access to a read-only page that contains the information
needed to translate a hardware counter value to the full 64-bit
counter value that would be returned by a read on the fd. This is
useful on architectures that allow user programs to read the hardware
counters, such as PowerPC.
The mmap will only succeed if the counter is a hardware counter
monitoring the current process.
On my quad 2.5GHz PowerPC 970MP machine, userspace can read a counter
and translate it to the full 64-bit value in about 30ns using the
mmapped page, compared to about 830ns for the read syscall on the
counter, so this does give a significant performance improvement.

Impact: build fix for powerpc
Commit db3a944aca35ae61 ("perf_counter: revamp syscall input ABI")
expanded the hw_event.type field into a union of structs containing
bitfields. In particular it introduced a type field and a raw_type
field, with the intention that the 1-bit raw_type field should
overlay the most-significant bit of the 8-bit type field, and in fact
perf_counter_alloc() now assumes that (or at least, assumes that
raw_type doesn't overlay any of the bits that are 1 in the values of
PERF_TYPE_{HARDWARE,SOFTWARE,TRACEPOINT}).
Unfortunately this is not true on big-endian systems such as PowerPC,
where bitfields are laid out from left to right, i.e. from most
significant bit to least significant. This means that setting
hw_event.type = PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE will set hw_event.raw_type to 1.
This fixes it by making the layout depend on whether or not
__BIG_ENDIAN_BITFIELD is defined. It's a bit ugly, but that's what
we get for using bitfields in a user/kernel ABI.
Also, that commit didn't fix up some places in arch/powerpc/kernel/
perf_counter.c where hw_event.raw and hw_event.event_id were used.
This fixes them too.

1. It doesn't call mem_cgroup_out_of_memory and doesn't update

2. Considering hierarchy, shrinking has to be done from the
mem_over_limit, not from the memcg which the page would be charged to.
mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin() does all of these things properly, so we
use it and call cancel_charge_swapin when it succeeded.

Rogue ports are currently not tracked on any list. The only reference
to them is through any outstanding exchanges pending on the rogue ports.
If the module is removed while a retry is set on a rogue port
(say a Plogi retry for instance), this retry is not cancelled because there
is no reference to the rogue port in the discovery rports list. Thus the
local port can clean itself up, delete the exchange pool, and then the
rogue port timeout can fire and try to start up another exchange.
This patch tracks the rogue ports in a new list disc->rogue_rports. Creating
a new list instead of using the disc->rports list keeps remote port code
change to a minimum.
1) Whenever a rogue port is created, it is immediately added to the
disc->rogue_rports list.
2) When the rogues port goes to ready, it is removed from the rogue list
and the real remote port is added to the disc->rports list
3) The removal of the rogue from the disc->rogue_rports list is done in
the context of the fc_rport_work() workQ thread in discovery callback.
4) Real rports are removed from the disc->rports list like before. Lookup
is done only in the real rports list. This avoids making large changes
to the remote port code.
5) In fc_disc_stop_rports, the rogues list is traversed in addition to the
real list to stop the rogue ports and issue logoffs on them. This way, rogue
ports get cleaned up when the local port goes away.
6) rogue remote ports are not removed from the list right away, but
removed late in fc_rport_work() context, multiple threads can find the same
remote port in the list and call rport_logoff(). Rport_logoff() only
continues with the logoff if port is not in NONE state, thus preventing
multiple logoffs and multiple list deletions.
7) Since the rport is removed from the disc list at a later stage
(in the disc callback), incoming frames can find the rport even if
rport_logoff() has been called on the rport. When rport_logoff() is called,
the rport state is set to NONE, and we are trying to cancel all exchanges
and retries on that port. While in this state, if an incoming
Plogi/Prli/Logo or other frames match the rport, we should not reply
because the rport is in the NONE state. Just drop the frame, since the
rport will be deleted soon in the disc callback (fc_rport_work)
8) In fc_disc_single(), remove rport lookup and call to fc_disc_del_target.
fc_disc_single() is called from recv_rscn_req() where rport lookup
and rport_logoff is already done.

Set target can queue limit to the number of preallocated
session tasks we have.
This along with the cxgb3i can_queue patch will fix a throughput
problem where it could only queue one LU worth of data at a time.

This patch adds support for ACPI device driver .notify() methods. If
such a method is present, Linux/ACPI installs a handler for device
notifications (but not for system notifications such as Bus Check,
Device Check, etc). When a device notification occurs, Linux/ACPI
passes it on to the driver's .notify() method.
In most cases, this removes the need for drivers to install their own
handlers for device-specific notifications.
For fixed hardware devices like some power and sleep buttons, there's
no notification value because there's no control method to execute a
Notify opcode. When a fixed hardware device generates an event, we
handle it the same as a regular device notification, except we send
a ACPI_FIXED_HARDWARE_EVENT value. This is outside the normal 0x0-0xff
range used by Notify opcodes.
Several drivers install their own handlers for system Bus Check and
Device Check notifications so they can support hot-plug. This patch
doesn't affect that usage.
