89ec0dee9e tracing: increase size of number of possible events
With the new event tracing registration, we must increase the number
of events that can be registered. Currently the type field is only
one byte, which leaves us only 256 possible events.

Since we do not save the CPU number in the tracer anymore (it is determined
by the per cpu ring buffer that is used) we have an extra byte to use.

This patch increases the size of type from 1 byte (256 events) to
2 bytes (65,536 events).

It also adds a WARN_ON_ONCE if we exceed that limit.

[ Impact: allow more than 255 events ]

7a4f453b6d tracing/events: make struct trace_entry->type to be int type
struct trace_entry->type is unsigned char, while trace event's id is
int type, thus for a event with id >= 256, it's entry->type is cast
to (id % 256), and then we can't see the trace output of this event.

261842b7c9 tracing: add same level recursion detection
The tracing infrastructure allows for recursion. That is, an interrupt
may interrupt the act of tracing an event, and that interrupt may very well
perform its own trace. This is a recursive trace, and is fine to do.

The problem arises when there is a bug, and the utility doing the trace
calls something that recurses back into the tracer. This recursion is not
caused by an external event like an interrupt, but by code that is not
expected to recurse. The result could be a lockup.

This patch adds a bitmask to the task structure that keeps track
of the trace recursion. To find the interrupt depth, the following
algorithm is used:

  level = hardirq_count() + softirq_count() + in_nmi;

Here, level will be the depth of interrutps and softirqs, and even handles
the nmi. Then the corresponding bit is set in the recursion bitmask.
If the bit was already set, we know we had a recursion at the same level
and we warn about it and fail the writing to the buffer.

After the data has been committed to the buffer, we clear the bit.
No atomics are needed. The only races are with interrupts and they reset
the bitmask before returning anywy.

d1b182a8d4 tracing/events/ring-buffer: expose format of ring buffer headers to users
Currently, every thing needed to read the binary output from the
ring buffers is available, with the exception of the way the ring
buffers handles itself internally.

This patch creates two special files in the debugfs/tracing/events
directory:

 # cat /debug/tracing/events/header_page
        field: u64 timestamp;   offset:0;       size:8;
        field: local_t commit;  offset:8;       size:8;
        field: char data;       offset:16;      size:4080;

 # cat /debug/tracing/events/header_event
        type        :    2 bits
        len         :    3 bits
        time_delta  :   27 bits
        array       :   32 bits

        padding     : type == 0
        time_extend : type == 1
        data        : type == 3

This is to allow a userspace app to see if the ring buffer format changes
or not.

93eb677d74 ftrace: use module notifier for function tracer
The hooks in the module code for the function tracer must be called
before any of that module code runs. The function tracer hooks
modify the module (replacing calls to mcount to nops). If the code
is executed while the change occurs, then the CPU can take a GPF.

To handle the above with a bit of paranoia, I originally implemented
the hooks as calls directly from the module code.

After examining the notifier calls, it looks as though the start up
notify is called before any of the module's code is executed. This makes
the use of the notify safe with ftrace.

Only the startup notify is required to be "safe". The shutdown simply
removes the entries from the ftrace function list, and does not modify
any code.

This change has another benefit. It removes a issue with a reverse dependency
in the mutexes of ftrace_lock and module_mutex.

1d54ad6da9 blktrace: add trace/ to /sys/block/sda
Impact: allow ftrace-plugin blktrace to trace device-mapper devices

To trace a single partition:
  # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/enable

To trace the whole sda instead:
  # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/enable

Thus we also fix an issue reported by Ted, that ftrace-plugin blktrace
can't be used to trace device-mapper devices.

Now:

  # echo 1 > /sys/block/dm-0/trace/enable
  echo: write error: No such device or address
  # mount -t ext4 /dev/dm-0 /mnt
  # echo 1 > /sys/block/dm-0/trace/enable
  # echo blk > /debug/tracing/current_tracer

d0deef5b14 blktrace: support per-partition tracing
Though one can specify '-d /dev/sda1' when using blktrace, it still
traces the whole sda.

To support per-partition tracing, when we start tracing, we initialize
bt->start_lba and bt->end_lba to the start and end sector of that
partition.

Note some actions are per device, thus we don't filter 0-sector events.

a59fd60272 tracing/events: convert event call sites to use a link list
Impact: makes it possible to define events in modules

The events are created by reading down the section that they are linked
in by the macros. But this is not scalable to modules. This patch converts
the manipulations to use a global link list, and on boot up it adds
the items in the section to the list.

This change will allow modules to add their tracing events to the list as
well.

Note, this change alone does not permit modules to use the TRACE_EVENT macros,
but the change is needed for them to eventually do so.

9504504cba tracing: make trace_seq operations available for core kernel
In the process to make TRACE_EVENT macro work for modules, the trace_seq
operations must be available for core kernel code.

These operations are quite useful and can be used for other implementations.

The main idea is that we create a trace_seq handle that acts very much
like the seq_file handle.

	struct trace_seq *s = kmalloc(sizeof(*s, GFP_KERNEL);

	trace_seq_init(s);
	trace_seq_printf(s, "some data %d\n", variable);

	printk("%s", s->buffer);

The main use is to allow a top level function call several other functions
that may store printf like data into the buffer. Then at the end, the top
level function can process all the data with any method it would like to.
It could be passed to userspace, output via printk or even use seq_file:

	trace_seq_to_user(s, ubuf, cnt);
	seq_puts(m, s->buffer);

ea20d9293c tracing: consolidate trace and trace_event headers
Impact: clean up

Neil Horman (et. al.) criticized the way the trace events were broken up
into two files. The reason for that was that ftrace needed to separate out
the declarations from where the #include <linux/tracepoint.h> was used.
It then dawned on me that the tracepoint.h header only needs to define the
TRACE_EVENT macro if it is not already defined.

The solution is simply to test if TRACE_EVENT is defined, and if it is not
then the linux/tracepoint.h header can define it. This change consolidates
all the <traces>.h and <traces>_event_types.h into the <traces>.h file.

fa1b47dd85 ring-buffer: add ring_buffer_discard_commit
The ring_buffer_discard_commit is similar to ring_buffer_event_discard
but it can only be done on an event that has yet to be commited.
Unpredictable results can happen otherwise.

The main difference between ring_buffer_discard_commit and
ring_buffer_event_discard is that ring_buffer_discard_commit will try
to free the data in the ring buffer if nothing has addded data
after the reserved event. If something did, then it acts almost the
same as ring_buffer_event_discard followed by a
ring_buffer_unlock_commit.

Note, either ring_buffer_commit_discard and ring_buffer_unlock_commit
can be called on an event, not both.

This commit also exports both discard functions to be usable by
GPL modules.

0ad30b8fd5 add some long-missing capabilities to fs_mask
When POSIX capabilities were introduced during the 2.1 Linux
cycle, the fs mask, which represents the capabilities which having
fsuid==0 is supposed to grant, did not include CAP_MKNOD and
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE.  However, before capabilities the privilege
to call these did in fact depend upon fsuid==0.

This patch introduces those capabilities into the fsmask,
restoring the old behavior.

See the thread starting at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/11/157 for
reference.

Note that if this fix is deemed valid, then earlier kernel versions (2.4
and 2.2) ought to be fixed too.

9eeba6138c lockdep: warn about lockdep disabling after kernel taint
Impact: provide useful missing info for developers

Kernel taint can occur in several situations such as warnings,
load of prorietary or staging modules, bad page, etc...

But when such taint happens, a developer might still be working on
the kernel, expecting that lockdep is still enabled. But a taint
disables lockdep without ever warning about it.
Such a kernel behaviour doesn't really help for kernel development.

This patch adds this missing warning.

Since the taint is done most of the time after the main message that
explain the real source issue, it seems safe to warn about it inside
add_taint() so that it appears at last, without hurting the main
information.

v2: Use a generic helper to disable lockdep instead of an
    open coded xchg().

97c18e2c7a module: try_then_request_module must wait
Since the whole point of try_then_request_module is to retry
the operation after a module has been loaded, we must wait for
the module to fully load.

Otherwise all sort of things start breaking, e.g., you won't
be able to read your encrypted disks on the first attempt.

e3c8ca8336 sched: do not count frozen tasks toward load
Freezing tasks via the cgroup freezer causes the load average to climb
because the freezer's current implementation puts frozen tasks in
uninterruptible sleep (D state).

Some applications which perform job-scheduling functions consult the
load average when making decisions.  If a cgroup is frozen, the load
average does not provide a useful measure of the system's utilization
to such applications.  This is especially inconvenient if the job
scheduler employs the cgroup freezer as a mechanism for preempting low
priority jobs.  Contrast this with using SIGSTOP for the same purpose:
the stopped tasks do not count toward system load.

Change task_contributes_to_load() to return false if the task is
frozen.  This results in /proc/loadavg behavior that better meets
users' expectations.

47788c58e6 tracing/syscalls: use a dedicated file header
Impact: fix build warnings and possibe compat misbehavior on IA64

Building a kernel on ia64 might trigger these ugly build warnings:

CC      arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.o
In file included from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:55:
arch/ia64/ia32/ia32priv.h:290:1: warning: "elf_check_arch" redefined
In file included from include/linux/elf.h:7,
                 from include/linux/module.h:14,
                 from include/linux/ftrace.h:8,
                 from include/linux/syscalls.h:68,
                 from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:18:
arch/ia64/include/asm/elf.h:19:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition
[...]

sys_ia32.c includes linux/syscalls.h which in turn includes linux/ftrace.h
to import the syscalls tracing prototypes.

But including ftrace.h can pull too much things for a low level file,
especially on ia64 where the ia32 private headers conflict with higher
level headers.

Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.

3153c26b54 ide: refactor tf_read() method
Simplify tf_read() method, making it deal only with 'struct ide_taskfile' and
the validity flags that the upper layer passes, and factoring out the code that
deals with the high order bytes into ide_tf_readback() to be called from the
only two functions interested, ide_complete_cmd() and ide_dump_sector().

This should stop the needless code duplication in this method and so make
it about twice smaller than it was; along with simplifying the setup for
the method call, this should save both time and space...
