c7b0930857 ring-buffer: prevent adding write in discarded area
This a very tight race where an interrupt could come in and not
have enough data to put into the end of a buffer page, and that
it would fail to write and need to go to the next page.

But if this happened when another writer was about to reserver
their data, and that writer has smaller data to reserve, then
it could succeed even though the interrupt moved the tail page.

To pervent that, if we fail to store data, and by subtracting the
amount we reserved we still have room for smaller data, we need
to fill that space with "discarded" data.

[ Impact: prevent race were buffer data may be lost ]

0ac2058f68 tracing/filters: strloc should be unsigned short
I forgot to update filter code accordingly in

(commt b0aae68cc5)

It can cause system crash:

215368e8e5 tracing: fix a typo in tracing_cpumask_write()
It's tracing_cpumask_new that should be kfree()ed.

This causes tracing_cpumask to be freed due to the typo:

 # echo z > tracing_cpumask
 bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

And subsequent reads/writes to tracing_cpuamsk will access this
already-freed tracing_cpumask, thus may lead to crash.

0990b1c657 x86: Add NMI types for kmap_atomic, fix
I just realized this has a kmap_atomic bug in...

The below would fix it - but it's complicating this code
some more.

Alternatively I would have to introduce something like
pte_offset_map_irq() which would make the irq/nmi detection and leave
the regular code paths alone, however that would mean either duplicating
the gup_fast() pagewalk or passing down a pte function pointer, which
would only duplicate the gup_pte_range() bit, neither is really
attractive ...

ea4431906d [SCSI] aic79xx: make driver respect nvram for IU and QAS settings
This patch allows the Adaptec firmware to pass on its values for Packetize and
QAS.  To do this, the settings max_iu and max_qas have been introduced into
the SPI transport class and populated from the adaptec NVram tables.  Domain
validation in the SPI transport class will respect the max settings when
configuring to the highest possible speed for testing.

9974458e2f perf_counter: Make set_perf_counter_pending() declaration common

to provide a static inline definition of set_perf_counter_pending()
in the powerpc hw_irq.h.

3dfabc74c6 perf report: Add per system call overhead histogram
Take advantage of call-graph percounter sampling/recording to
display a non-trivial histogram: the true, collapsed/summarized
cost measurement, on a per system call total overhead basis:

 aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> ./perf record -g -a -f ~/hackbench 10
 aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> ./perf report -s symbol --syscalls | head -10
 #
 # (3536 samples)
 #
 # Overhead  Symbol
 # ........  ......
 #
     40.75%  [k] sys_write
     40.21%  [k] sys_read
      4.44%  [k] do_nmi
 ...

This is done by accounting each (reliable) call-chain that chains back
to a given system call to that system call function.

[ So in the above example we can see that hackbench spends about 40% of
  its total time somewhere in sys_write() and 40% somewhere in
  sys_read(), the rest of the time is spent in user-space. The time
  is not spent in sys_write() _itself_ but in one of its many child
  functions. ]

Or, a recording of a (source files are already in the page-cache) kernel build:

 $ perf record -g -m 512 -f -- make -j32 kernel
 $ perf report -s s --syscalls | grep '\[k\]' | grep -v nmi

     4.14%  [k] do_page_fault
     1.20%  [k] sys_write
     1.10%  [k] sys_open
     0.63%  [k] sys_exit_group
     0.48%  [k] smp_apic_timer_interrupt
     0.37%  [k] sys_read
     0.37%  [k] sys_execve
     0.20%  [k] sys_mmap
     0.18%  [k] sys_close
     0.14%  [k] sys_munmap
     0.13%  [k] sys_poll
     0.09%  [k] sys_newstat
     0.07%  [k] sys_clone
     0.06%  [k] sys_newfstat
     0.05%  [k] sys_access
     0.05%  [k] schedule

Shows the true total cost of each syscall variant that gets used
during a kernel build. This profile reveals it that pagefaults are
the costliest, followed by read()/write().

An interesting detail: timer interrupts cost 0.5% - or 0.5 seconds
per 100 seconds of kernel build-time. (this was done with HZ=1000)

The summary is done in 'perf report', i.e. in the post-processing
stage - so once we have a good call-graph recording, this type of
non-trivial high-level analysis becomes possible.

74193ef0ec perf_counter: x86: Fix call-chain support to use NMI-safe methods
__copy_from_user_inatomic() isn't NMI safe in that it can trigger
the page fault handler which is another trap and its return path
invokes IRET which will also close the NMI context.

Therefore use a GUP based approach to copy the stack frames over.

We tried an alternative solution as well: we used a forward ported
version of Mathieu Desnoyers's "NMI safe INT3 and Page Fault" patch
that modifies the exception return path to use an open-coded IRET with
explicit stack unrolling and TF checking.

This didnt work as it interacted with faulting user-space instructions,
causing them not to restart properly, which corrupts user-space
registers.

Solving that would probably involve disassembling those instructions
and backtracing the RIP. But even without that, the code was deemed
rather complex to the already non-trivial x86 entry assembly code,
so instead we went for this GUP based method that does a
software-walk of the pagetables.

this dynamically allocated structure is copied to the stack (in arch-

is, naturally, uninitialized.

Hide the false positive using the __GFP_NOTRACK_FALSE_POSITIVE flag.
Also made the rlimit override code a bit clearer by introducing a new

3446a8aa7e fs: introduce __getname_gfp()
The purpose of this change is to allow __getname() users to pass a
custom GFP mask to kmem_cache_alloc(). This is needed for annotating
a certain kmemcheck false positive.

We fix this false positive by annotating the bitfield in struct
sock.

96c25c81ec ieee1394/csr1212: fix false positive kmemcheck report
kmemcheck reports a use of uninitialized memory here, but it's not
a real error. The structure in question has just been allocated, and
the whole field is initialized, but it happens in two steps.

We fix the false positive by inserting a kmemcheck annotation.

fc7d0c9f21 kmemcheck: introduce bitfield API
Add the bitfield API which can be used to annotate bitfields in structs
and get rid of false positive reports.

According to Al Viro, the syntax we were using (putting #ifdef inside
macro arguments) was not valid C. He also suggested using begin/end
markers instead, which is what we do now.

ac61a75796 kmemcheck: add opcode self-testing at boot
We've had some troubles in the past with weird instructions. This
patch adds a self-test framework which can be used to verify that
a certain set of opcodes are decoded correctly. Of course, the
opcodes which are not tested can still give the wrong results.

In short, this is just a safeguard to catch unintentional changes
in the opcode decoder. It does not mean that errors can't still
occur!

The Kconfig options of kmemcheck are hidden under arch/x86 which makes porting
to other architectures harder. To fix that, move the Kconfig bits to
lib/Kconfig.kmemcheck and introduce a CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_KMEMCHECK config option
that architectures can define.
