981c125269 perf symbols: Check '/tmp/perf-' symbol file ownership
The external symbol files are generated by JIT compilers, for example, but we
need to make sure they're ours before injecting them to 'perf report'.

4c09bafae3 perf sched: Do not delete session object prematurely
The session object is released prematurely when processing events for
latency command. The session's thread objects are used within the
output_lat_thread function.

Runnning following commands:

 # perf sched record
 # perf sched latency

the latter displays incorrect data and might cause access violation.

9941c96ad8 perf tools: Add support to install perf python extension
Adding install-python_ext target to install python extension related
files.  Installation directory is governed by python distutils package
and follows the DESTDIR variable settings.

Also moving python extension build output into '$(O)python_ext_build'
directory and making it configurable via PYTHON_EXTBUILD variable.

Keeping the '$(O)python/perf.so' file, so it could be used for testing
as of until now.

aba8d05607 perf tools: do not look at ./config for configuration
In addition to /etc/perfconfig and $HOME/.perfconfig, perf looks for
configuration in the file ./config, imitating git which looks at
$GIT_DIR/config.  If ./config is not a perf configuration file, it
fails, or worse, treats it as a configuration file and changes behavior
in some unexpected way.

"config" is not an unusual name for a file to be lying around and perf
does not have a private directory dedicated for its own use, so let's
just stop looking for configuration in the cwd.  Callers needing
context-sensitive configuration can use the PERF_CONFIG environment
variable.

b77f0f3c1f jump label: Reduce the cycle count by changing the link order
In the course of testing jump labels for use with the CFS
bandwidth controller, Paul Turner, discovered that using jump
labels reduced the branch count and the instruction count, but
did not reduce the cycle count or wall time.

I noticed that having the jump_label.o included in the kernel
but not used in any way still caused this increase in cycle
count and wall time. Thus, I moved jump_label.o in the
kernel/Makefile, thus changing the link order, and presumably
moving it out of hot icache areas. This brought down the cycle
count/time as expected.

In addition to Paul's testing,  I've tested the patch using a
single 'static_branch()' in the getppid() path, and basically
running tight loops of calls to getppid(). Here are my results
for the branch disabled case:

With jump labels turned on (CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL), branch disabled:

140d0b2108 Do 'shm_init_ns()' in an early pure_initcall
This isn't really critical any more, since other patches (commit
298507d4d2: "shm: optimize exit_shm()") have caused us to not actually
need to touch the rw_mutex unless there are actual shm segments
associated with the namespace, but we really should do tne shm_init_ns()
earlier than we do now.

This, together with commit 288d5abec8 ("Boot up with usermodehelper
disabled") will mean that we really do initialize the initial ipc
namespace data structure before we run any tasks.

82de9a0cc3 eisa/pci_eisa.c: fix BUG introduced by 005bdad7b8
While `pci_eisa_driver' still refer `pci_eisa_init', the .probe() function
should not be called after init memory release, as pointed out by commit
74b9a297. The structure is still referenced in the drivers subsystem, and can
be accesseed through sysfs, so the modpost warning is a false positive. Mark
it as such.

In the same time, the warning referenced in 005bdad7b8 did only mention
`pci_eisa_driver', not `pci_eisa_pci_tbl', so remove its marking.

of_alias_get_id() is broken and being reverted.  Remove the reference
to it and replace with a single incrementing id number.

There is no risk of regression here on the imx driver since the imx
change to use of_alias_get_id() is commit 22698aa2, "serial/imx: add
device tree probe support" which is new for v3.1, and it won't get
used unless CONFIG_OF is enabled and the board is booted using a
device tree.  A single incrementing integer is sufficient for now.

83835b3d9a slab, lockdep: Annotate slab -> rcu -> debug_object -> slab
Lockdep thinks there's lock recursion through:

	kmem_cache_free()
	  cache_flusharray()
	    spin_lock(&l3->list_lock)  <----------------.
	    free_block()                                |
	      slab_destroy()                            |
		call_rcu()                              |
		  debug_object_activate()               |
		    debug_object_init()                 |
		      __debug_object_init()             |
			kmem_cache_alloc()              |
			  cache_alloc_refill()          |
			    spin_lock(&l3->list_lock) --'

Now debug objects doesn't use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and hence there is no
actual possibility of recursing. Luckily debug objects marks it slab
with SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS so we can identify the thing.

Mark all SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS (all one!) slab caches with a special
lockdep key so that lockdep sees its a different cachep.

Also add a WARN on trying to create a SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU |
SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS cache, to avoid possible future trouble.

The warning is harmless in this case, but the below makes it go away.

7d36b26be0 lockdep: Fix trace_hardirqs_on_caller()
Commit dd4e5d3ac4 ("lockdep: Fix trace_[soft,hard]irqs_[on,off]()
recursion") made a bit of a mess of the various checks and error
conditions.

In particular it moved the check for !irqs_disabled() before the
spurious enable test, resulting in some warnings.

288d5abec8 Boot up with usermodehelper disabled
The core device layer sends tons of uevent notifications for each device
it finds, and if the kernel has been built with a non-empty
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH that will make us try to execute the usermode
helper binary for all these events very early in the boot.

Not only won't the root filesystem even be mounted at that point, we
literally won't have necessarily even initialized all the process
handling data structures at that point, which causes no end of silly
problems even when the usermode helper doesn't actually succeed in
executing.

So just use our existing infrastructure to disable the usermodehelpers
to make the kernel start out with them disabled.  We enable them when
we've at least initialized stuff a bit.

Problems related to an uninitialized

	init_ipc_ns.ids[IPC_SHM_IDS].rw_mutex

33f35f2a4e x86: don't include xen/xen.h in <asm/io.h> unless XEN is enabled
Dmitry Kasatkin reports:
  "kernel-devel package with kernel headers have no <include/xen>
   directory if XEN is disabled.  Modules which inclide asm/io.h won't
   compile.

   XEN related content is behind the CONFIG_XEN flag in the io.h.  And
   <xen/xen.h> should be also behind CONFIG_XEN flag."

So move the include of <xen/xen.h> down into the section that is
conditional on CONFIG_XEN.

For versions of the device that implement operation-types 0x87, 0x88
(IOAT_OP_XOR, IOAT_OP_XOR_VAL) this map determines whether a given
source is located in the base or extended descriptor.  Source addresses
6 through 8 require an extended descriptor, hence 0xe0, not 0xd0.  No
shipping hardware currently implements these operation types.

298507d4d2 shm: optimize exit_shm()
We may optimistically check .in_use == 0 without holding the rw_mutex:
it's the common case, and if it's zero, there certainly won't be any
segments associated with us.

After taking the lock, the idr_for_each() will do the right thing, so we
could now drop the re-check inside the lock without any real cost.  But
it won't hurt.

8079b1c859 mm: clarify the radix_tree exceptional cases
Make the radix_tree exceptional cases, mostly in filemap.c, clearer.

It's hard to devise a suitable snappy name that illuminates the use by
shmem/tmpfs for swap, while keeping filemap/pagecache/radix_tree
generality.  And akpm points out that /* radix_tree_deref_retry(page) */
comments look like calls that have been commented out for unknown
reason.

Skirt the naming difficulty by rearranging these blocks to handle the
transient radix_tree_deref_retry(page) case first; then just explain the
remaining shmem/tmpfs swap case in a comment.

e504f3fdd6 tmpfs radix_tree: locate_item to speed up swapoff
We have already acknowledged that swapoff of a tmpfs file is slower than
it was before conversion to the generic radix_tree: a little slower
there will be acceptable, if the hotter paths are faster.

But it was a shock to find swapoff of a 500MB file 20 times slower on my
laptop, taking 10 minutes; and at that rate it significantly slows down
my testing.

Now, most of that turned out to be overhead from PROVE_LOCKING and
PROVE_RCU: without those it was only 4 times slower than before; and
more realistic tests on other machines don't fare as badly.

I've tried a number of things to improve it, including tagging the swap
entries, then doing lookup by tag: I'd expected that to halve the time,
but in practice it's erratic, and often counter-productive.

The only change I've so far found to make a consistent improvement, is
to short-circuit the way we go back and forth, gang lookup packing
entries into the array supplied, then shmem scanning that array for the
target entry.  Scanning in place doubles the speed, so it's now only
twice as slow as before (or three times slower when the PROVEs are on).

So, add radix_tree_locate_item() as an expedient, once-off,
single-caller hack to do the lookup directly in place.  #ifdef it on
CONFIG_SHMEM and CONFIG_SWAP, as much to document its limited
applicability as save space in other configurations.  And, sadly,
#include sched.h for cond_resched().

31475dd611 mm: a few small updates for radix-swap
Remove PageSwapBacked (!page_is_file_cache) cases from
add_to_page_cache_locked() and add_to_page_cache_lru(): those pages now
go through shmem_add_to_page_cache().

Remove a comment on maximum tmpfs size from fsstack_copy_inode_size(),
and add a comment on swap entries to invalidate_mapping_pages().

And mincore_page() uses find_get_page() on what might be shmem or a
tmpfs file: allow for a radix_tree_exceptional_entry(), and proceed to
find_get_page() on swapper_space if so (oh, swapper_space needs #ifdef).
