When using perf stat on an AMD F15h system with the default hw events
attributes, some of the events don't get counted:
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
0.749208 task-clock (msec) # 0.001 CPUs utilized
1 context-switches # 0.001 M/sec
0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec
54 page-faults # 0.072 M/sec
1,122,815 cycles # 1.499 GHz
286,740 stalled-cycles-frontend # 25.54% frontend cycles idle
<not counted> stalled-cycles-backend (0.00%)
^^^^^^^^^^^^
<not counted> instructions (0.00%)
^^^^^^^^^^^^
<not counted> branches (0.00%)
<not counted> branch-misses (0.00%)
1.001550070 seconds time elapsed
The reason is that we have the HW watchdog consuming one PMU counter and
when perf tries to schedule 6 events on 6 counters and some of those
counters are constrained to only a specific subset of PMCs by the
hardware, the event scheduling fails.
So issue a hint to disable the HW watchdog around a perf stat session.
Committer note:
Testing it...
# perf stat -d usleep 1

The '__unreachable' and '__func_stack_frame_non_standard' sections are
only used at compile time. They're discarded for vmlinux but they
should also be discarded for modules.
Since this is a recurring pattern, prefix the section names with
".discard.". It's a nice convention and vmlinux.lds.h already discards
such sections.
Also remove the 'a' (allocatable) flag from the __unreachable section
since it doesn't make sense for a discarded section.

Pull IDR rewrite from Matthew Wilcox:
"The most significant part of the following is the patch to rewrite the
IDR & IDA to be clients of the radix tree. But there's much more,
including an enhancement of the IDA to be significantly more space
efficient, an IDR & IDA test suite, some improvements to the IDR API
(and driver changes to take advantage of those improvements), several
improvements to the radix tree test suite and RCU annotations.
The IDR & IDA rewrite had a good spin in linux-next and Andrew's tree
for most of the last cycle. Coupled with the IDR test suite, I feel
pretty confident that any remaining bugs are quite hard to hit. 0-day
did a great job of watching my git tree and pointing out problems; as
it hit them, I added new test-cases to be sure not to be caught the
same way twice"
Willy goes on to expand a bit on the IDR rewrite rationale:
"The radix tree and the IDR use very similar data structures.
Merging the two codebases lets us share the memory allocation pools,
and results in a net deletion of 500 lines of code. It also opens up
the possibility of exposing more of the features of the radix tree to
users of the IDR (and I have some interesting patches along those
lines waiting for 4.12)
It also shrinks the size of the 'struct idr' from 40 bytes to 24 which
will shrink a fair few data structures that embed an IDR"

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
"Several noteworthy changes.
- Parav's rdma controller is finally merged. It is very straight
forward and can limit the abosolute numbers of common rdma
constructs used by different cgroups.
- kernel/cgroup.c got too chubby and disorganized. Created
kernel/cgroup/ subdirectory and moved all cgroup related files
under kernel/ there and reorganized the core code. This hurts for
backporting patches but was long overdue.
- cgroup v2 process listing reimplemented so that it no longer
depends on allocating a buffer large enough to cache the entire
result to sort and uniq the output. v2 has always mangled the sort
order to ensure that users don't depend on the sorted output, so
this shouldn't surprise anybody. This makes the pid listing
functions use the same iterators that are used internally, which
have to have the same iterating capabilities anyway.
- perf cgroup filtering now works automatically on cgroup v2. This
patch was posted a long time ago but somehow fell through the
cracks.
- misc fixes asnd documentation updates"

Patch series "userfaultfd: non-cooperative: add madvise() event for
MADV_REMOVE request".
These patches add notification of madvise(MADV_REMOVE) event to
non-cooperative userfaultfd monitor.
The first pacth renames EVENT_MADVDONTNEED to EVENT_REMOVE along with
relevant functions and structures. Using _REMOVE instead of
_MADVDONTNEED describes the event semantics more clearly and I hope it's
not too late for such change in the ABI.
This patch (of 3):
The UFFD_EVENT_MADVDONTNEED purpose is to notify uffd monitor about
removal of certain range from address space tracked by userfaultfd.
Hence, UFFD_EVENT_REMOVE seems to better reflect the operation
semantics. Respectively, 'madv_dn' field of uffd_msg is renamed to
'remove' and the madvise_userfault_dontneed callback is renamed to
userfaultfd_remove.

The BUG() macro's use of __builtin_unreachable() via the unreachable()
macro tells gcc that the instruction is a dead end, and that it's safe
to assume the current code path will not execute past the previous
instruction.
On x86, the BUG() macro is implemented with the 'ud2' instruction. When
objtool's branch analysis sees that instruction, it knows the current
code path has come to a dead end.
Peter Zijlstra has been working on a patch to change the WARN macros to
use 'ud2'. That patch will break objtool's assumption that 'ud2' is
always a dead end.
Generally it's best for objtool to avoid making those kinds of
assumptions anyway. The more ignorant it is of kernel code internals,
the better.
So create a more generic way for objtool to detect dead ends by adding
an annotation to the unreachable() macro. The annotation stores a
pointer to the end of the unreachable code path in an '__unreachable'
section. Objtool can read that section to find the dead ends.

Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie:
"This is the main drm pull request for v4.11.
Nothing too major, the tinydrm and mmu-less support should make
writing smaller drivers easier for some of the simpler platforms, and
there are a bunch of documentation updates.
Intel grew displayport MST audio support which is hopefully useful to
people, and FBC is on by default for GEN9+ (so people know where to
look for regressions). AMDGPU has a lot of fixes that would like new
firmware files installed for some GPUs.
Other than that it's pretty scattered all over.
