Jiri Olsa 7a0153ee15 perf tools: Fix perf stack to non executable on x86_64
By adding following objects:
  bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o
the x86_64 perf binary ended up with executable stack.

The reason was that above object are assembler sourced and is missing the
GNU-stack note section. In such case the linker assumes that the final binary
should not be restricted at all and mark the stack as RWX.

Adding section ".note.GNU-stack" definition to mentioned object, with all
flags disabled, thus omiting this object from linker stack flags decision.

Problem introduced in:

  $ git describe ea7872b
  v2.6.37-rc2-19-gea7872b

Steven Rostedt f069686e4b tracing/softirq: Move __raise_softirq_irqoff() out of header
The __raise_softirq_irqoff() contains a tracepoint. As tracepoints in headers
can cause issues, and not to mention, bloats the kernel when they are
in a static inline, it is best to move the function that contains the
tracepoint out of the header and into softirq.c.

Jiri Olsa ac483c446b ftrace: Change filter/notrace set functions to return exit code
Currently the ftrace_set_filter and ftrace_set_notrace functions
do not return any return code. So there's no way for ftrace_ops
user to tell wether the filter was correctly applied.

The set_ftrace_filter interface returns error in case the filter
did not match:

  # echo krava > set_ftrace_filter
  bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

Changing both ftrace_set_filter and ftrace_set_notrace functions
to return zero if the filter was applied correctly or -E* values
in case of error.

Stephane Eranian 84f2b9b2ed perf: Remove deprecated WARN_ON_ONCE()
With the new throttling/unthrottling code introduced with
commit:

  e050e3f0a7 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")

we occasionally hit two WARN_ON_ONCE() checks in:

  - intel_pmu_pebs_enable()
  - intel_pmu_lbr_enable()
  - x86_pmu_start()

The assertions are no longer problematic. There is a valid
path where they can trigger but it is harmless.

The assertion can be triggered with:

  $ perf record -e instructions:pp ....

Leading to paths:

  intel_pmu_pebs_enable
  intel_pmu_enable_event
  x86_perf_event_set_period
  x86_pmu_start
  perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context
  perf_event_task_tick
  scheduler_tick

And:

  intel_pmu_lbr_enable
  intel_pmu_enable_event
  x86_perf_event_set_period
  x86_pmu_start
  perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context.
  perf_event_task_tick
  scheduler_tick

cpuc->enabled is always on because when we get to
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context() the PMU is not totally
disabled. Furthermore when we need to adjust a period,
we only stop the event we need to change and not the
entire PMU. Thus, when we re-enable, cpuc->enabled is
already set. Note that when we stop the event, both
pebs and lbr are stopped if necessary (and possible).

Alex Elder d23a4b3fd6 rbd: fix safety of rbd_put_client()
The rbd_client structure uses a kref to arrange for cleaning up and
freeing an instance when its last reference is dropped.  The cleanup
routine is rbd_client_release(), and one of the things it does is
delete the rbd_client from rbd_client_list.  It acquires node_lock
to do so, but the way it is done is still not safe.

The problem is that when attempting to reuse an existing rbd_client,
the structure found might already be in the process of getting
destroyed and cleaned up.

Here's the scenario, with "CLIENT" representing an existing
rbd_client that's involved in the race:

 Thread on CPU A                | Thread on CPU B
 ---------------                | ---------------
 rbd_put_client(CLIENT)         | rbd_get_client()
   kref_put()                   |   (acquires node_lock)
     kref->refcount becomes 0   |   __rbd_client_find() returns CLIENT
     calls rbd_client_release() |   kref_get(&CLIENT->kref);
                                |   (releases node_lock)
       (acquires node_lock)     |
       deletes CLIENT from list | ...and starts using CLIENT...
       (releases node_lock)     |
       and frees CLIENT         | <-- but CLIENT gets freed here

Fix this by having rbd_put_client() acquire node_lock.  The result
could still be improved, but at least it avoids this problem.

This fixes the race in process_vm_core found by Oleg (see

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1235667/

for details).

This has been updated since I last sent it as the creation of the new
mm_access() function did almost exactly the same thing as parts of the
previous version of this patch did.

In order to use mm_access() even when /proc isn't enabled, we move it to
kernel/fork.c where other related process mm access functions already
are.

Alex Elder d8fb02abdc ceph: create a new session lock to avoid lock inversion
Lockdep was reporting a possible circular lock dependency in
dentry_lease_is_valid().  That function needs to sample the
session's s_cap_gen and and s_cap_ttl fields coherently, but needs
to do so while holding a dentry lock.  The s_cap_lock field was
being used to protect the two fields, but that can't be taken while
holding a lock on a dentry within the session.

In most cases, the s_cap_gen and s_cap_ttl fields only get operated
on separately.  But in three cases they need to be updated together.
Implement a new lock to protect the spots updating both fields
atomically is required.

Sage Weil ab434b60ab ceph: initialize client debugfs outside of monc->mutex
Initializing debufs under monc->mutex introduces a lock dependency for
sb->s_type->i_mutex_key, which (combined with several other dependencies)
leads to an annoying lockdep warning.  There's no particular reason to do
the debugfs setup under this lock, so move it out.

It used to be the case that our first monmap could come from the OSD; that
is no longer the case with recent servers, so we will reliably set up the
client entry during the initial authentication.

We don't have to worry about racing with debugfs teardown by
ceph_debugfs_client_cleanup() because ceph_destroy_client() calls
ceph_msgr_flush() first, which will wait for the message dispatch work
to complete (and the debugfs init to complete).

safe to get rid of it entirely).

Ilija Hadzic 52b53a0bf8 drm/radeon/kms/blit: fix blit copy for very large buffers
Evergreen and NI blit copy was broken if the buffer maps to a rectangle
whose one dimension is 16384 (max dimension allowed by these chips).
In the mainline kernel, the problem is exposed only when buffers are
very large (1G), but it's still a problem. The problem could be exposed
for smaller buffers if anyone modifies the algorithm for rectangle
construction in r600_blit_create_rect() (the reason why someone would
modify that algorithm is to tune the performance of buffer moves).

The root cause was in i2f() function which only operated on range between
0 and 16383. Fix this by extending the range of i2f() function to 0 to
32767.

While at it improve the function so that the range can be easily
extended in the future (if it becomes necessary), cleanup lines
over 80 characters, and replace in-line comments with one strategic
comment that explains the crux of the function.

Credits to michel@daenzer.net for pointing out the root cause of
the bug.

v2: Fix I2F_MAX_INPUT constant definition goof and warn only once
    if input argument is out of range. Edit the comment a little
    bit to avoid some linguistic confusion and make it look better
    in general.
