e840227c14 x86, 32-bit: Use same regs as 64-bit for kernel_thread_helper
The arg should be in %eax, but that is clobbered by the return value
of clone.  The function pointer can be in any register.  Also, don't
push args onto the stack, since regparm(3) is the normal calling
convention now.

125580380f x86, perf events: Check if we have APIC enabled
Ralf Hildebrandt reported this boot warning:

| Running a vanilla 2.6.32 as Xen DomU, I'm getting:

So we need to check if APIC functionality is available, and
not just in the P6 driver but elsewhere as well.

b7cc9554bc x86/amd-iommu: Fix passthrough mode
The data structure changes to use dev->archdata.iommu field
broke the iommu=pt mode because in this case the
dev->archdata.iommu was left uninitialized. This moves the
inititalization of the devices into the main init function
and fixes the problem.

ce9119ad90 x86-32: Avoid pipeline serialization in PTREGSCALL1 and 2
In the PTREGSCALL1 and 2 macros, we can trivially avoid an unnecessary
pipeline serialization, so do so.

In PTREGSCALLS3 this is much less clear-cut since we have to push a
new value to the stack.  Leave it alone for now assuming it is as good
as it is going to be; may want to check on Atom or another in-order
x86 to see if we can do better.

44234adcdc hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering them
Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling
it, changing its address, type or len, it calls
modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and
racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new
one.

This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint
slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only
supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging
workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle.

So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just
disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it
after if necessary.

Commit cebe182033 had an unnecessary,
wrong change: &mce_banks[i].attr is equivalent to the former
bank_attrs[i], not to mce_attrs[i].

bc09effabf x86/mce: Set up timer unconditionally
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.

a946d8f11f x86: Fix bogus warning in apic_noop.apic_write()
apic_noop is used to provide dummy apic functions. It's installed
when the CPU has no APIC or when the APIC is disabled on the kernel
command line.

The apic_noop implementation of apic_write() warns when the CPU has
an APIC or when the APIC is not disabled.

That's bogus. The warning should only happen when the CPU has an
APIC _AND_ the APIC is not disabled. apic_noop.apic_read() has the
correct check.

af2d8289f5 x86: Fixup wrong irq frame link in stacktraces
When we enter in irq, two things can happen to preserve the link
to the previous frame pointer:

- If we were in an irq already, we don't switch to the irq stack
  as we are inside. We just need to save the previous frame
  pointer and to link the new one to the previous.

- Otherwise we need another level of indirection. We enter the irq with
  the previous stack. We save the previous bp inside and make bp
  pointing to its saved address. Then we switch to the irq stack and
  push bp another time but to the new stack. This makes two levels to
  dereference instead of one.

In the second case, the current stacktrace code omits the second level
and loses the frame pointer accuracy. The stack that follows will then
be considered as unreliable.

Handling that makes the perf callchain happier.

b625b3b3b7 x86: Fixup wrong debug exception frame link in stacktraces
While dumping a stacktrace, the end of the exception stack won't link
the frame pointer to the previous stack.

The interrupted stack will then be considered as unreliable and ignored
by perf, as the frame pointer is unreliable itself.

This happens because we overwrite the frame pointer that links to the
interrupted frame with the address of the exception stack. This is
done in order to reserve space inside.
But rbp has been chosen here only because it is not a scratch register,
so that the address of the exception stack remains in rbp after calling
do_debug(), we can then release the exception stack space without the
need to retrieve its address again.

But we can pick another non-scratch register to do that, so that we
preserve the link to the interrupted stack frame in the stacktraces.

Just randomly choose r12. Every registers are saved just before and
restored just after calling do_debug(). And r12 is not used in the
middle, which makes it a perfect candidate.

Example: perf record -g -a -c 1 -f -e mem:$(tasklist_lock_addr):rw

Note: it does not only affect perf events but also other stacktraces in
x86-64. They were considered as unreliable once we quit the debug
stack frame.

7f33f9c5cc x86/perf: Exclude the debug stack from the callchains
Dumping the callchains from breakpoint events with perf gives strange
results:

3.75%             perf  [kernel]           [k] _raw_read_unlock
                       |
                       --- _raw_read_unlock
                           perf_callchain
                           perf_prepare_sample
                           __perf_event_overflow
                           perf_swevent_overflow
                           perf_swevent_add
                           perf_bp_event
                           hw_breakpoint_exceptions_notify
                           notifier_call_chain
                           __atomic_notifier_call_chain
                           atomic_notifier_call_chain
                           notify_die
                           do_debug
                           debug
                           munmap

We are infected with all the debug stack. Like the nmi stack, the debug
stack is undesired as it is part of the profiling path, not helpful for
the user.

Ignore it.

b326e9560a hw-breakpoints: Use overflow handler instead of the event callback
struct perf_event::event callback was called when a breakpoint
triggers. But this is a rather opaque callback, pretty
tied-only to the breakpoint API and not really integrated into perf
as it triggers even when we don't overflow.

We prefer to use overflow_handler() as it fits into the perf events
rules, being called only when we overflow.

2f0993e0fb hw-breakpoints: Drop callback and task parameters from modify helper
Drop the callback and task parameters from modify_user_hw_breakpoint().
For now we have no user that need to modify a breakpoint to the point
of changing its handler or its task context.
