38331f62c2 perf_events, x86: AMD event scheduling
This patch adds correct AMD NorthBridge event scheduling.

NB events are events measuring L3 cache, Hypertransport traffic. They are
identified by an event code >= 0xe0. They measure events on the
Northbride which is shared by all cores on a package. NB events are
counted on a shared set of counters. When a NB event is programmed in a
counter, the data actually comes from a shared counter. Thus, access to
those counters needs to be synchronized.

We implement the synchronization such that no two cores can be measuring
NB events using the same counters. Thus, we maintain a per-NB allocation
table. The available slot is propagated using the event_constraint
structure.

d76a0812ac perf_events: Add new start/stop PMU callbacks
In certain situations, the kernel may need to stop and start the same
event rapidly. The current PMU callbacks do not distinguish between stop
and release (i.e., stop + free the resource). Thus, a counter may be
released, then it will be immediately re-acquired. Event scheduling will
again take place with no guarantee to assign the same counter. On some
processors, this may event yield to failure to assign the event back due
to competion between cores.

This patch is adding a new pair of callback to stop and restart a counter
without actually release the underlying counter resource. On stop, the
counter is stopped, its values saved and that's it. On start, the value
is reloaded and counter is restarted (on x86, actual restart is delayed
until perf_enable()).

3a0304e90a perf_events: Report the MMAP pgoff value in bytes
DaveM reported that currently perf interprets the pgoff value reported by
the MMAP events as a byte range, but the kernel reports it as a page
offset.

Since its broken (and unusable) anyway, change the kernel behaviour (ABI)
to report bytes indeed, avoiding the need for userspace to deal with
PAGE_SIZE things.

3d98ffbffb powerpc: Fix lwsync feature fixup vs. modules on 64-bit
Anton's commit enabling the use of the lwsync fixup mechanism on 64-bit
breaks modules. The lwsync fixup section uses .long instead of the
FTR_ENTRY_OFFSET macro used by other fixups sections, and thus will
generate 32-bit relocations that our module loader cannot resolve.

This changes it to use the same type as other feature sections.

Note however that we might want to consider using 32-bit for all the
feature fixup offsets and add support for R_PPC_REL32 to module_64.c
instead as that would reduce the size of the kernel image. I'll leave
that as an exercise for the reader for now...

bb8d41330c x86/PCI: Prevent mmconfig memory corruption
commit ff097ddd4 (x86/PCI: MMCONFIG: manage pci_mmcfg_region as a
list, not a table) introduced a nasty memory corruption when
pci_mmcfg_list is empty.

pci_mmcfg_check_end_bus_number() dereferences pci_mmcfg_list.prev even
when the list is empty. The following write hits some variable near to
pci_mmcfg_list.

Further down a similar problem exists, where cfg->list.next is
dereferenced unconditionally and a comparison with some variable near
to pci_mmcfg_list happens.

Add a check for the last element into the for_each_entry() loop and
remove all the other crappy logic which is just a leftover of the old
array based code which was replaced by the list conversion.

86c38a31aa tracing: Fix ftrace_event_call alignment for use with gcc 4.5
GCC 4.5 introduces behavior that forces the alignment of structures to
 use the largest possible value. The default value is 32 bytes, so if
 some structures are defined with a 4-byte alignment and others aren't
 declared with an alignment constraint at all - it will align at 32-bytes.

 For things like the ftrace events, this results in a non-standard array.
 When initializing the ftrace subsystem, we traverse the _ftrace_events
 section and call the initialization callback for each event. When the
 structures are misaligned, we could be treating another part of the
 structure (or the zeroed out space between them) as a function pointer.

 This patch forces the alignment for all the ftrace_event_call structures
 to 4 bytes.

 Without this patch, the kernel fails to boot very early when built with
 gcc 4.5.

 It's trivial to check the alignment of the members of the array, so it
 might be worthwhile to add something to the build system to do that
 automatically. Unfortunately, that only covers this case. I've asked one
 of the gcc developers about adding a warning when this condition is seen.

0c54dd341f ftrace: Remove memory barriers from NMI code when not needed
The code in stop_machine that modifies the kernel text has a bit
of logic to handle the case of NMIs. stop_machine does not prevent
NMIs from executing, and if an NMI were to trigger on another CPU
as the modifying CPU is changing the NMI text, a GPF could result.

To prevent the GPF, the NMI calls ftrace_nmi_enter() which may
modify the code first, then any other NMIs will just change the
text to the same content which will do no harm. The code that
stop_machine called must wait for NMIs to finish while it changes
each location in the kernel. That code may also change the text
to what the NMI changed it to. The key is that the text will never
change content while another CPU is executing it.

To make the above work, the call to ftrace_nmi_enter() must also
do a smp_mb() as well as atomic_inc().  But for applications like
perf that require a high number of NMIs for profiling, this can have
a dramatic effect on the system. Not only is it doing a full memory
barrier on both nmi_enter() as well as nmi_exit() it is also
modifying a global variable with an atomic operation. This kills
performance on large SMP machines.

Since the memory barriers are only needed when ftrace is in the
process of modifying the text (which is seldom), this patch
adds a "modifying_code" variable that gets set before stop machine
is executed and cleared afterwards.

The NMIs will check this variable and store it in a per CPU
"save_modifying_code" variable that it will use to check if it
needs to do the memory barriers and atomic dec on NMI exit.
