8d44f2f34f tracing: Fix TRACING_MAP Kconfig
The config option for TRACING_MAP has "default n", which is not needed
because the default of configs is 'n'.

Also, since the TRACING_MAP has no config prompt, there's no reason to
include "If in doubt, say N" in the help text.

Fixed a typo in the comments of tracing_map.h.

08d43a5fa0 tracing: Add lock-free tracing_map
Add tracing_map, a special-purpose lock-free map for tracing.

tracing_map is designed to aggregate or 'sum' one or more values
associated with a specific object of type tracing_map_elt, which
is associated by the map to a given key.

It provides various hooks allowing per-tracer customization and is
separated out into a separate file in order to allow it to be shared
between multiple tracers, but isn't meant to be generally used outside
of that context.

The tracing_map implementation was inspired by lock-free map
algorithms originated by Dr. Cliff Click:

a31d82d85a bpf_trace: Make dependent on PERF_EVENTS
Arnd Bergmann reported:

  In my ARM randconfig tests, I'm getting a build error for
  newly added code in bpf_perf_event_read and bpf_perf_event_output
  whenever CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is disabled:

  kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c: In function 'bpf_perf_event_read':
  kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:203:11: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'oncpu'
  if (event->oncpu != smp_processor_id() ||
           ^
  kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:204:11: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'pmu'
        event->pmu->count)

  This can happen when UPROBE_EVENT is enabled but KPROBE_EVENT
  is disabled. I'm not sure if that is a configuration we care
  about, otherwise we could prevent this case from occuring by
  adding Kconfig dependencies.

Looking at this further, it's really that UPROBE_EVENT enables PERF_EVENTS.
By just having BPF_EVENTS depend on PERF_EVENTS, then all is fine.

04a22fae4c tracing, perf: Implement BPF programs attached to uprobes
By copying BPF related operation to uprobe processing path, this patch
allow users attach BPF programs to uprobes like what they are already
doing on kprobes.

After this patch, users are allowed to use PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF on a
uprobe perf event. Which make it possible to profile user space programs
and kernel events together using BPF.

Because of this patch, CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS should be selected by
CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT to ensure trace_call_bpf() is compiled even if
KPROBE_EVENT is not set.

6c8a53c9e6 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Core kernel changes:

   - One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability
     to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed
     by the kernel) to kprobes.

     This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image
     that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively.
     (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might
     allow unprivileged use as well.)

     (Alexei Starovoitov)

   - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this
     allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock
     sources for event timestamps traced via perf.

     This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated
     events with external events that were measured with different
     clocks:

       - cluster wide profiling

       - for system wide tracing with user-space events,

       - JIT profiling events

     etc.  Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via
     the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al.

     (Peter Zijlstra)

  Hardware enablement kernel changes:

   - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer
     on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs.

     The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space
     ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added
     to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the
     necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous.

     This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result.
     A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT
     driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU.
     More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well -
     will probably be ready by 4.2.

     (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra)

   - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware
     feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and
     allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads.

     These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU
     driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events.  (The
     partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged
     as a cgroup extension.)

     (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P
     Waskiewicz Jr)

   - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell
     feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus
     tooling support.  To activate this feature you have to enable it
     via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option:

        perf record --call-graph lbr
        perf report

     or:

        perf top --call-graph lbr

     This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf
     based unwinding, but has some limitations:

       - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and
         branch record can not be enabled at the same time.

       - It is only available for user-space callchains.

     (Yan, Zheng)

   - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and
     event table fixes for earlier models.

     (Andi Kleen)

   - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds.  This is a complex
     CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter
     value corruption.  The mitigation code is automatically enabled and
     is transparent.

     (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian)

  The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so
  I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to
  the tooling changes outlined above:

  User visible changes affecting all tools:

      - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa)
      - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song)
      - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa)
      - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song)
      - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  User visible changes in individual tools:

    'perf data':

        New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially
        for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa,
        Sebastian Siewior)

    'perf diff':

        Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern)

    'perf list':

        Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song)

        Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song)

    'perf kmem':

        Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa)

        Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim)

        Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim)

        Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim)

    'perf probe':

        Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu)

        Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu)

        Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu)

    'perf record':

        Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra)

        Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen)

    'perf sched':

        Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song)

    'perf report' and 'perf top':

        Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the
        TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern)

        Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one
        cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT
        events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

    'perf stat':

        Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose)

        Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen)

    'perf trace':

        Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
        be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
        place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
        (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  There's also been a ton of infrastructure work done, such as the
  split-out of perf's build system into tools/build/ and other changes -

9828413d47 tracing: Add enum_map file to show enums that have been mapped
Add a enum_map file in the tracing directory to see what enums have been
saved to convert in the print fmt files.

As this requires the enum mapping to be persistent in memory, it is only
created if the new config option CONFIG_TRACE_ENUM_MAP_FILE is enabled.
This is for debugging and will increase the persistent memory footprint
of the kernel.

e1abf2cc8d bpf: Fix the build on BPF_SYSCALL=y && !CONFIG_TRACING kernels, make it more configurable
So bpf_tracing.o depends on CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL - but that's not its only
dependency, it also depends on the tracing infrastructure and on kprobes,
without which it will fail to build with:

  In file included from kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:14:0:
  kernel/trace/trace.h: In function ‘trace_test_and_set_recursion’:
  kernel/trace/trace.h:491:28: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member named ‘trace_recursion’
    unsigned int val = current->trace_recursion;
  [...]

It took quite some time to trigger this build failure, because right now
BPF_SYSCALL is very obscure, depends on CONFIG_EXPERT. So also make BPF_SYSCALL
more configurable, not just under CONFIG_EXPERT.

If BPF_SYSCALL, tracing and kprobes are enabled then enable the bpf_tracing
gateway as well.

We might want to make this an interactive option later on, although
I'd not complicate it unnecessarily: enabling BPF_SYSCALL is enough of
an indicator that the user wants BPF support.

81dc9f0ef2 tracing: Add tracepoint benchmark tracepoint
In order to help benchmark the time tracepoints take, a new config
option is added called CONFIG_TRACEPOINT_BENCHMARK. When this option
is set a tracepoint is created called "benchmark:benchmark_event".
When the tracepoint is enabled, it kicks off a kernel thread that
goes into an infinite loop (calling cond_sched() to let other tasks
run), and calls the tracepoint. Each iteration will record the time
it took to write to the tracepoint and the next iteration that
data will be passed to the tracepoint itself. That is, the tracepoint
will report the time it took to do the previous tracepoint.
The string written to the tracepoint is a static string of 128 bytes
to keep the time the same. The initial string is simply a write of
"START". The second string records the cold cache time of the first
write which is not added to the rest of the calculations.

As it is a tight loop, it benchmarks as hot cache. That's fine because
we care most about hot paths that are probably in cache already.

An example of the output:

     START
     first=3672 [COLD CACHED]
     last=632 first=3672 max=632 min=632 avg=316 std=446 std^2=199712

9e8529afc4 Tracing updates for Linux 3.10
Along with the usual minor fixes and clean ups there are a few major
 changes with this pull request.
 
 1) Multiple buffers for the ftrace facility
 
 This feature has been requested by many people over the last few years.
 I even heard that Google was about to implement it themselves. I finally
 had time and cleaned up the code such that you can now create multiple
 instances of the ftrace buffer and have different events go to different
 buffers. This way, a low frequency event will not be lost in the noise
 of a high frequency event.
 
 Note, currently only events can go to different buffers, the tracers
 (ie. function, function_graph and the latency tracers) still can only
 be written to the main buffer.
 
 2) The function tracer triggers have now been extended.
 
 The function tracer had two triggers. One to enable tracing when a
 function is hit, and one to disable tracing. Now you can record a
 stack trace on a single (or many) function(s), take a snapshot of the
 buffer (copy it to the snapshot buffer), and you can enable or disable
 an event to be traced when a function is hit.
 
 3) A perf clock has been added.
 
 A "perf" clock can be chosen to be used when tracing. This will cause
 ftrace to use the same clock as perf uses, and hopefully this will make
 it easier to interleave the perf and ftrace data for analysis.

  events go to different buffers.  This way, a low frequency event will
  not be lost in the noise of a high frequency event.

  Note, currently only events can go to different buffers, the tracers
  (ie function, function_graph and the latency tracers) still can only
  be written to the main buffer.

   2) The function tracer triggers have now been extended.

  The function tracer had two triggers.  One to enable tracing when a
  function is hit, and one to disable tracing.  Now you can record a
  stack trace on a single (or many) function(s), take a snapshot of the
  buffer (copy it to the snapshot buffer), and you can enable or disable
  an event to be traced when a function is hit.

   3) A perf clock has been added.

  A "perf" clock can be chosen to be used when tracing.  This will cause
  ftrace to use the same clock as perf uses, and hopefully this will
  make it easier to interleave the perf and ftrace data for analysis."

6c43e554a2 ring-buffer: Add ring buffer startup selftest
When testing my large changes to the ftrace system, there was
a bug that looked like the ring buffer was dropping events.
I wrote up a quick integrity checker of the ring buffer to
see if it was.

Although the bug ended up being something stupid I did in ftrace,
and had nothing to do with the ring buffer, I figured if I spent
the time to write up this test, I might as well include it in the
kernel.

I cleaned it up a bit, as the original version was rather ugly.
Not saying this version is pretty, but it's a beauty queen
compared to what I original wrote.

To enable the start up test, set CONFIG_RING_BUFFER_STARTUP_TEST.

Note, it runs for 10 seconds, so it will slow your boot time
by at least 10 more seconds.

What it does is documented in both the comments and the Kconfig
help.

0b85ffc293 tracing: Add config option to allow snapshot to swap per cpu
When the preempt or irq latency tracers are enabled, they require
the ring buffer to be able to swap the per cpu sub buffers between
two main buffers. This adds a slight overhead to tracing as the
trace recording needs to perform some checks to synchronize
between recording and swaps that might be happening on other CPUs.

The config RING_BUFFER_ALLOW_SWAP is set when a user of the ring
buffer needs the "swap cpu" feature, otherwise the extra checks
are not implemented and removed from the tracing overhead.

The snapshot feature will swap per CPU if the RING_BUFFER_ALLOW_SWAP
config is set. But that only gets set by things like OPROFILE
and the irqs and preempt latency tracers.

This config is added to let the user decide to include this feature
with the snapshot agnostic from whether or not another user of
the ring buffer sets this config.

22cffc2bb4 tracing: Enable snapshot when any latency tracer is enabled
The snapshot utility is extremely useful, and does not add any more
overhead in memory when another latency tracer is enabled. They use
the snapshot underneath. There's no reason to hide the snapshot file
when a latency tracer has been enabled in the kernel.

If any of the latency tracers (irq, preempt or wakeup) is enabled
then also select the snapshot facility.

Note, snapshot can be enabled without the latency tracers enabled.

db05021d49 ftrace: Update the kconfig for DYNAMIC_FTRACE
The prompt to enable DYNAMIC_FTRACE (the ability to nop and
enable function tracing at run time) had a confusing statement:

 "enable/disable ftrace tracepoints dynamically"

This was written before tracepoints were added to the kernel,
but now that tracepoints have been added, this is very confusing
and has confused people enough to give wrong information during
presentations.

Not only that, I looked at the help text, and it still references
that dreaded daemon that use to wake up once a second to update
the nop locations and brick NICs, that hasn't been around for over
five years.

Time to bring the text up to the current decade.

debdd57f51 tracing: Make a snapshot feature available from userspace
Ftrace has a snapshot feature available from kernel space and
latency tracers (e.g. irqsoff) are using it. This patch enables
user applictions to take a snapshot via debugfs.

Add "snapshot" debugfs file in "tracing" directory.

  snapshot:
    This is used to take a snapshot and to read the output of the
    snapshot.

     # echo 1 > snapshot

    This will allocate the spare buffer for snapshot (if it is
    not allocated), and take a snapshot.

     # cat snapshot

    This will show contents of the snapshot.

     # echo 0 > snapshot

    This will free the snapshot if it is allocated.

    Any other positive values will clear the snapshot contents if
    the snapshot is allocated, or return EINVAL if it is not allocated.

43720bd601 PM / tracing: remove deprecated power trace API
The text in Documentation said it would be removed in 2.6.41;
the text in the Kconfig said removal in the 3.1 release.  Either
way you look at it, we are well past both, so push it off a cliff.

Note that the POWER_CSTATE and the POWER_PSTATE are part of the
legacy tracing API.  Remove all tracepoints which use these flags.
As can be seen from context, most already have a trace entry via
trace_cpu_idle anyways.

Also, the cpufreq/cpufreq.c PSTATE one is actually unpaired, as
compared to the CSTATE ones which all have a clear start/stop.
As part of this, the trace_power_frequency also becomes orphaned,
so it too is deleted.

0d5c6e1c19 tracing: Use irq_work for wake ups and remove *_nowake_*() functions
Have the ring buffer commit function use the irq_work infrastructure to
wake up any waiters waiting on the ring buffer for new data. The irq_work
was created for such a purpose, where doing the actual wake up at the
time of adding data is too dangerous, as an event or function trace may
be in the midst of the work queue locks and cause deadlocks. The irq_work
will either delay the action to the next timer interrupt, or trigger an IPI
to itself forcing an interrupt to do the work (in a safe location).

With irq_work, all ring buffer commits can safely do wakeups, removing
the need for the ring buffer commit "nowake" variants, which were used
by events and function tracing. All commits can now safely use the
normal commit, and the "nowake" variants can be removed.

Commit faa4602e47 "x86, perf, bts, mm: Delete the never used BTS-ptrace code",
in March 2010, removed CONFIG_X86_DS, and now only CONFIG_RING_BUFFER (split
out from CONFIG_TRACING for general use) has a dependency on trace_clock. So,
only compile in trace_clock with CONFIG_RING_BUFFER or CONFIG_TRACING
enabled.

a2546fae01 ftrace: Add -mfentry to Makefile on function tracer
Thanks to Andi Kleen, gcc 4.6.0 now supports -mfentry for x86
(and hopefully soon for other archs). What this does is to have
the function profiler start at the beginning of the function
instead of after the stack is set up. As plain -pg (mcount) is
called after the stack is set up, and in some cases can have issues
with the function graph tracer. It also requires frame pointers to
be enabled.

The -mfentry now calls __fentry__ at the beginning of the function.
This allows for compiling without frame pointers and even has the
ability to access parameters if needed.

If the architecture and the compiler both support -mfentry then
use that instead.

Pull user-space probe instrumentation from Ingo Molnar:
 "The uprobes code originates from SystemTap and has been used for years
  in Fedora and RHEL kernels.  This version is much rewritten, reviews
  from PeterZ, Oleg and myself shaped the end result.

  This tree includes uprobes support in 'perf probe' - but SystemTap
  (and other tools) can take advantage of user probe points as well.

  Sample usage of uprobes via perf, for example to profile malloc()
  calls without modifying user-space binaries.

  First boot a new kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT=y enabled.

  If you don't know which function you want to probe you can pick one
  from 'perf top' or can get a list all functions that can be probed
  within libc (binaries can be specified as well):

	$ perf probe -F -x /lib/libc.so.6

  To probe libc's malloc():

	$ perf probe -x /lib64/libc.so.6 malloc
	Added new event:
	probe_libc:malloc    (on 0x7eac0)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1

  Make use of it to create a call graph (as the flat profile is going to
  look very boring):

	$ perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -gR make

  The core uprobes design is fairly straightforward: uprobes probe
  points register themselves at (inode:offset) addresses of
  libraries/binaries, after which all existing (or new) vmas that map
  that address will have a software breakpoint injected at that address.
  vmas are COW-ed to preserve original content.  The probe points are
  kept in an rbtree.

  If user-space executes the probed inode:offset instruction address
  then an event is generated which can be recovered from the regular
  perf event channels and mmap-ed ring-buffer.

  Multiple probes at the same address are supported, they create a
  dynamic callback list of event consumers.

  The basic model is further complicated by the XOL speedup: the
  original instruction that is probed is copied (in an architecture
  specific fashion) and executed out of line when the probe triggers.
  The XOL area is a single vma per process, with a fixed number of
  entries (which limits probe execution parallelism).

  The API: uprobes are installed/removed via
  /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, the API is integrated to
  align with the kprobes interface as much as possible, but is separate
  to it.

  Injecting a probe point is privileged operation, which can be relaxed
  by setting perf_paranoid to -1.

  You can use multiple probes as well and mix them with kprobes and
  regular PMU events or tracepoints, when instrumenting a task."

Fix up trivial conflicts in mm/memory.c due to previous cleanup of
unmap_single_vma().

b732d439cb ftrace: Remove selecting FRAME_POINTER with FUNCTION_TRACER
The function tracer will enable the -pg option with gcc, which requires
that frame pointers. When FRAME_POINTER is defined in the kernel config
it adds the gcc option -fno-omit-frame-pointer which causes some problems
on some architectures. For those architectures, the FRAME_POINTER select
was not set.

When FUNCTION_TRACER was selected on these architectures that can not have
-fno-omit-frame-pointer, the -pg option is still set. But when
FRAME_POINTER is not selected, the kernel config would add the gcc option
-fomit-frame-pointer. Adding this option is incompatible with -pg
even on archs that do not need frame pointers with -pg.

The answer to this was to just not add either -fno-omit-frame-pointer
or -fomit-frame-pointer on these archs that want function tracing
but do not set FRAME_POINTER.

As it turns out, for archs that require frame pointers for function
tracing, the same can be used. If gcc requires frame pointers with
-pg, it will simply add it. The best thing to do is not select FRAME_POINTER
when function tracing is selected, and let gcc add it if needed.

Only add the -fno-omit-frame-pointer when something else selects
FRAME_POINTER, but do not add -fomit-frame-pointer if function tracing
is selected.

f3f096cfed tracing: Provide trace events interface for uprobes
Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form
it can be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and
dump the required registers when the code flow reaches the
probed address.

The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer
and %ax a register at the probed text address.  Here we are
trying to probe zfree in /bin/zsh:

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
 # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp

 # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
 0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base
 zfree # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
 # cat uprobe_events

So remove the warning by adding the extra condition

The old C-state/idle accounting events:
  power:power_start
  power:power_end

Have now a replacement (but we are still keeping the old
tracepoints for compatibility):

  power:cpu_idle

and
  power:power_frequency

is replaced with:
  power:cpu_frequency

power:machine_suspend is newly introduced.

Jean Pihet has a patch integrated into the generic layer
(kernel/power/suspend.c) which will make use of it.

the type= field got removed from both, it was never
used and the type is differed by the event type itself.

perf timechart userspace tool gets adjusted in a separate patch.

The config option used by archs to let the build system know that
the C version of the recordmcount works for said arch is currently
