This patch improves event scheduling by maximizing the use of PMU
registers regardless of the order in which events are created in a group.
The algorithm takes into account the list of counter constraints for each
event. It assigns events to counters from the most constrained, i.e.,
works on only one counter, to the least constrained, i.e., works on any
counter.
Intel Fixed counter events and the BTS special event are also handled via
this algorithm which is designed to be fairly generic.
The patch also updates the validation of an event to use the scheduling
algorithm. This will cause early failure in perf_event_open().
The 2nd version of this patch follows the model used by PPC, by running
the scheduling algorithm and the actual assignment separately. Actual
assignment takes place in hw_perf_enable() whereas scheduling is
implemented in hw_perf_group_sched_in() and x86_pmu_enable().

When running perf across all cpus with backtracing (-a -g), sometimes we
get samples without associated backtraces:
23.44% init [kernel] [k] restore
11.46% init eeba0c [k] 0x00000000eeba0c
6.77% swapper [kernel] [k] .perf_ctx_adjust_freq
5.73% init [kernel] [k] .__trace_hcall_entry
4.69% perf libc-2.9.so [.] 0x0000000006bb8c
|
|--11.11%-- 0xfffa941bbbc
It turns out the backtrace code has a check for the idle task and the IP
sampling does not. This creates problems when profiling an interrupt
heavy workload (in my case 10Gbit ethernet) since we get no backtraces
for interrupts received while idle (ie most of the workload).
Right now x86 and sh check that current is not NULL, which should never
happen so remove that too.
Idle task's exclusion must be performed from the core code, on top
of perf_event_attr:exclude_idle.

Pass the frame pointer from the regs of the interrupted path
to dump_trace() while processing the stack trace.
Currently, dump_trace() takes the current bp and starts the
callchain from dump_trace() itself. This is wasteful because
we need to walk through the entire NMI/DEBUG stack before
retrieving the interrupted point.
We can fix that by just using the frame pointer from the
captured regs. It points exactly where we want to start.

Presently acpi-cpufreq will perform the MSR read on the first CPU in the
mask. That's inefficient if that CPU differs from the current CPU.
Because we have to perform a cross-CPU call, but we could have run the
rdmsr on the current CPU.
So switch to using the new smp_call_function_any(), which will perform the
call on the current CPU if that CPU is present in the mask (it is).

Commit 83ce4009 did the following change
If the TSC is constant and non-stop, also set it reliable.
But, there seems to be few systems that will end up with TSC warp across
sockets, depending on how the cpus come out of reset. Skipping TSC sync
test on such systems may result in time inconsistency later.
So, reenable TSC sync test even on constant and non-stop TSC systems.
Set, sched_clock_stable to 1 by default and reset it in
mark_tsc_unstable, if TSC sync fails.
This change still gives perf benefit mentioned in 83ce4009 for systems
where TSC is reliable.

It's just wasteful for stacktrace users like perf to walk
through every entries on the stack whereas these only accept
reliable ones, ie: that the frame pointer validates.
Since perf requires pure reliable stacktraces, it needs a stack
walker based on frame pointers-only to optimize the stacktrace
processing.
This might solve some near-lockup scenarios that can be triggered
by call-graph tracing timer events.

The current print_context_stack helper that does the stack
walking job is good for usual stacktraces as it walks through
all the stack and reports even addresses that look unreliable,
which is nice when we don't have frame pointers for example.
But we have users like perf that only require reliable
stacktraces, and those may want a more adapted stack walker, so
lets make this function a callback in stacktrace_ops that users
can tune for their needs.

remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also
evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words,
"a char equals zero is never a space".

When there are a large number of processors in a system, there
is an excessive amount of messages sent to the system console.
It's estimated that with 4096 processors in a system, and the
console baudrate set to 56K, the startup messages will take
about 84 minutes to clear the serial port.
This set of patches limits the number of repetitious messages
which contain no additional information. Much of this information
is obtainable from the /proc and /sysfs. Some of the messages
are also sent to the kernel log buffer as KERN_DEBUG messages so
dmesg can be used to examine more closely any details specific to
a problem.

This patch resolves the panic by verifying a cpu is actually online before

x86, mce: don't restart timer if disabled
x86: Use -maccumulate-outgoing-args for sane mcount prologues
x86: Prevent GCC 4.4.x (pentium-mmx et al) function prologue wreckage
x86: AMD Northbridge: Verify NB's node is online
x86 VSDO: Fix Kconfig help
x86: Fix typo in Intel CPU cache size descriptor
x86: Add new Intel CPU cache size descriptors
* 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip: (36 commits)
x86, mm: Correct the implementation of is_untracked_pat_range()
x86/pat: Trivial: don't create debugfs for memtype if pat is disabled
x86, mtrr: Fix sorting of mtrr after subtracting
x86: Move find_smp_config() earlier and avoid bootmem usage
x86, platform: Change is_untracked_pat_range() to bool; cleanup init
x86: Change is_ISA_range() into an inline function
x86, mm: is_untracked_pat_range() takes a normal semiclosed range
x86, mm: Call is_untracked_pat_range() rather than is_ISA_range()
x86: UV SGI: Don't track GRU space in PAT
x86: SGI UV: Fix BAU initialization
x86, numa: Use near(er) online node instead of roundrobin for NUMA
x86, numa, bootmem: Only free bootmem on NUMA failure path
x86: Change crash kernel to reserve via reserve_early()
x86: Eliminate redundant/contradicting cache line size config options
x86: When cleaning MTRRs, do not fold WP into UC
x86: remove "extern" from function prototypes in <asm/proto.h>
x86, mm: Report state of NX protections during boot
x86, mm: Clean up and simplify NX enablement
x86, pageattr: Make set_memory_(x|nx) aware of NX support
x86, sleep: Always save the value of EFER
...
Fix up conflicts (added both iommu_shutdown and is_untracked_pat_range)
to 'struct x86_platform_ops') in
arch/x86/include/asm/x86_init.h
arch/x86/kernel/x86_init.c
Commit cebe182033 had an unnecessary,
wrong change: &mce_banks[i].attr is equivalent to the former
bank_attrs[i], not to mce_attrs[i].

mce_timer must be passed to setup_timer() in all cases, no
matter whether it is going to be actually used. Otherwise, when
the CPU gets brought down, its call to del_timer_sync() will
never return, as the timer won't have a base associated, and
hence lock_timer_base() will loop infinitely.
