9244489a7b ftrace: handle archs that do not support irqs_disabled_flags
Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures

Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that
is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were
disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user
if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled.

Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to
compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply
say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing
the real answer.

This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the
architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer
to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those
same archs compile with tracing enabled.

d25141a818 'kill sig -1' must only apply to caller's namespace
Currently "kill <sig> -1" kills processes in all namespaces and breaks the
isolation of namespaces.  Earlier attempt to fix this was discussed at:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/23/148

As suggested by Oleg Nesterov in that thread, use "task_pid_vnr() > 1"
check since task_pid_vnr() returns 0 if process is outside the caller's
namespace.

ce05fcc30e kernel/profile: fix profile_init() section mismatch
profile_init() calls in to alloc_bootmem() on early initialization.  While
alloc_bootmem() is __init, the reference itself is safe in that it is
tucked below a !slab_is_available() check.  So, flag profile_init() as

f3384b28a0 ftrace: fix trace_nop config select
Impact: build fix on non-function-tracing architectures

The trace_nop is the tracer that is defined when no tracer is set in
the ftrace infrastructure.

The trace_nop was mistakenly selected by HAVE_FTRACE due to the confusion
between ftrace infrastructure and the ftrace function tracer (which has
been solved by renaming the function tracer).

This patch changes the select to the approriate TRACING.

This patch should fix compile errors on architectures that do not define
the FUNCTION_TRACER.

Some of the pages below the 1MB ISA addresses will be shared typically by both
BIOS and system usable RAM. For example:
	BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009f800 (usable)
	BIOS-e820: 000000000009f800 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved)

x86info reads the low physical address using /dev/mem, which internally
uses ioremap() for accessing non RAM pages. ioremap() of such low
pages conflicts with multiple resource entities leading to the
above warning.

Change the iomem_map_sanity_check() to allow mapping a page spanning multiple
resource entities (minimum granularity that one can map is a page anyhow).

0b6e4d56bf ftrace: perform an initialization for ftrace to enable it
Impact: corrects a bug which made the non-dyn function tracer not functional

With latest git, the non-dynamic function tracer didn't get any trace.

The problem was the fact that ftrace_enabled wasn't initialized to 1
because ftrace hasn't any init function when DYNAMIC_FTRACE is disabled.

So when a tracer tries to register an ftrace_ops struct,
__register_ftrace_function failed to set the hook.

This patch corrects it by setting an init function to initialize
ftrace during the boot.

60063a6623 ftrace: fix current_tracer error return
The commit (in linux-tip) c2931e05ec
 ( ftrace: return an error when setting a nonexistent tracer )
added useful code that would error when a bad tracer was written into
the current_tracer file.

But this had a bug if the amount written was more than the amount read by
that code. The first iteration would set the tracer correctly, but since
it did not consume the rest of what was written (usually whitespace), the
userspace utility would continue to write what was not consumed. This
second iteration would fail to find a tracer and return -EINVAL. Funny
thing is that the tracer would have already been set.

This patch just consumes all the data that is written to the file.

6afe40b4da lockdep: fix irqs on/off ip tracing
Impact: fix lockdep lock-api-caller output when irqsoff tracing is enabled

81d68a96 "ftrace: trace irq disabled critical timings" added wrappers around
trace_hardirqs_on/off_caller. However these functions use
__builtin_return_address(0) to figure out which function actually disabled
or enabled irqs. The result is that we save the ips of trace_hardirqs_on/off
instead of the real caller. Not very helpful.

However since the patch from Steven the ip already gets passed. So use that
and get rid of __builtin_return_address(0) in these two functions.

Build error on alpha:

kernel/trace/trace.c:2162: error: implicit declaration of function 'raw_local_irq_enable'
