28cb5ef16e PM: Create PM workqueue if runtime PM is not configured too
The PM workqueue is going to be used by ACPI PM notify handlers
regardless of whether or not runtime PM is configured, so move
it out of #ifdef CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME.

Do that in three places in the ACPI device PM code.

8490fdf923 PM / sleep: Move platform suspend operations to separate functions
After the introduction of freeze_ops it makes more sense to move
all of the platform suspend operations to separate functions that
each will do all of the necessary checks and choose the right
callback to execute istead of doing all that in the core code
which makes it generally harder to follow.

58d4e21e50 tracing: Fix wraparound problems in "uptime" trace clock
The "uptime" trace clock added in:

    commit 8aacf017b0
    tracing: Add "uptime" trace clock that uses jiffies

has wraparound problems when the system has been up more
than 1 hour 11 minutes and 34 seconds. It converts jiffies
to nanoseconds using:
        (u64)jiffies_to_usecs(jiffy) * 1000ULL
but since jiffies_to_usecs() only returns a 32-bit value, it
truncates at 2^32 microseconds.  An additional problem on 32-bit
systems is that the argument is "unsigned long", so fixing the
return value only helps until 2^32 jiffies (49.7 days on a HZ=1000
system).

Avoid these problems by using jiffies_64 as our basis, and
not converting to nanoseconds (we do convert to clock_t because
user facing API must not be dependent on internal kernel
HZ values).

d81b4253b0 kprobes: Fix "Failed to find blacklist" probing errors on ia64 and ppc64
On ia64 and ppc64, function pointers do not point to the
entry address of the function, but to the address of a
function descriptor (which contains the entry address and misc
data).

Since the kprobes code passes the function pointer stored
by NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() to kallsyms_lookup_size_offset() for
initalizing its blacklist, it fails and reports many errors,
such as:

  Failed to find blacklist 0001013168300000
  Failed to find blacklist 0001013000f0a000
  [...]

To fix this bug, use arch_deref_entry_point() to get the
function entry address for kallsyms_lookup_size_offset()
instead of the raw function pointer.

Suzuki also pointed out that blacklist entries should also
be updated as well.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "A few more fixes for ftrace infrastructure.

  I was cleaning out my INBOX and found two fixes from zhangwei from a
  year ago that were lost in my mail.  These fix an inconsistency
  between trace_puts() and the way trace_printk() works.  The reason
  this is important to fix is because when trace_printk() doesn't have
  any arguments, it turns into a trace_puts().  Not being able to enable
  a stack trace against trace_printk() because it does not have any
  arguments is quite confusing.  Also, the fix is rather trivial and low
  risk.

  While porting some changes to PowerPC I discovered that it still has
  the function graph tracer filter bug that if you also enable stack
  tracing the function graph tracer filter is ignored.  I fixed that up.

  Finally, Martin Lau, fixed a bug that would cause readers of the
  ftrace ring buffer to block forever even though it was suppose to be
  NONBLOCK"

This also includes the fix from an earlier pull request:

 "Oleg Nesterov fixed a memory leak that happens if a user creates a
  tracing instance, sets up a filter in an event, and then removes that
  instance.  The filter allocates memory that is never freed when the
  instance is destroyed"

13b9a962a2 locking/rwsem: Rename 'activity' to 'count'
There are two definitions of struct rw_semaphore, one in linux/rwsem.h
and one in linux/rwsem-spinlock.h.

For some reason they have different names for the initial field. This
makes it impossible to use C99 named initialization for
__RWSEM_INITIALIZER() -- or we have to duplicate that entire thing
along with the structure definitions.

The simpler patch is renaming the rwsem-spinlock variant to match the
regular rwsem.

This allows us to switch to C99 named initialization.

proc_sched_show_task() does:

  if (nr_switches)
	do_div(avg_atom, nr_switches);

nr_switches is unsigned long and do_div truncates it to 32 bits, which
means it can test non-zero on e.g. x86-64 and be truncated to zero for
division.

Fix the problem by using div64_ul() instead.

As a side effect calculations of avg_atom for big nr_switches are now correct.

33ecd2083a locking/spinlocks/mcs: Micro-optimize osq_unlock()
In the unlock function of the cancellable MCS spinlock, the first
thing we do is to retrive the current CPU's osq node. However, due to
the changes made in the previous patch, in the common case where the
lock is not contended, we wouldn't need to access the current CPU's
osq node anymore.

This patch optimizes this by only retriving this CPU's osq node
after we attempt the initial cmpxchg to unlock the osq and found
that its contended.

90631822c5 locking/spinlocks/mcs: Convert osq lock to atomic_t to reduce overhead
The cancellable MCS spinlock is currently used to queue threads that are
doing optimistic spinning. It uses per-cpu nodes, where a thread obtaining
the lock would access and queue the local node corresponding to the CPU that
it's running on. Currently, the cancellable MCS lock is implemented by using
pointers to these nodes.

In this patch, instead of operating on pointers to the per-cpu nodes, we
store the CPU numbers in which the per-cpu nodes correspond to in atomic_t.
A similar concept is used with the qspinlock.

By operating on the CPU # of the nodes using atomic_t instead of pointers
to those nodes, this can reduce the overhead of the cancellable MCS spinlock
by 32 bits (on 64 bit systems).

046a619d8e locking/spinlocks/mcs: Rename optimistic_spin_queue() to optimistic_spin_node()
Currently, the per-cpu nodes structure for the cancellable MCS spinlock is
named "optimistic_spin_queue". However, in a follow up patch in the series
we will be introducing a new structure that serves as the new "handle" for
the lock. It would make more sense if that structure is named
"optimistic_spin_queue". Additionally, since the current use of the
"optimistic_spin_queue" structure are  "nodes", it might be better if we
rename them to "node" anyway.

This preparatory patch renames all current "optimistic_spin_queue"
to "optimistic_spin_node".

37e9562453 locking/rwsem: Allow conservative optimistic spinning when readers have lock
Commit 4fc828e24c ("locking/rwsem: Support optimistic spinning")
introduced a major performance regression for workloads such as
xfs_repair which mix read and write locking of the mmap_sem across
many threads. The result was xfs_repair ran 5x slower on 3.16-rc2
than on 3.15 and using 20x more system CPU time.

Perf profiles indicate in some workloads that significant time can
be spent spinning on !owner. This is because we don't set the lock
owner when readers(s) obtain the rwsem.

In this patch, we'll modify rwsem_can_spin_on_owner() such that we'll
return false if there is no lock owner. The rationale is that if we
just entered the slowpath, yet there is no lock owner, then there is
a possibility that a reader has the lock. To be conservative, we'll
avoid spinning in these situations.

This patch reduced the total run time of the xfs_repair workload from
about 4 minutes 24 seconds down to approximately 1 minute 26 seconds,
back to close to the same performance as on 3.15.

Retesting of AIM7, which were some of the workloads used to test the
original optimistic spinning code, confirmed that we still get big
performance gains with optimistic spinning, even with this additional
regression fix. Davidlohr found that while the 'custom' workload took
a performance hit of ~-14% to throughput for >300 users with this
additional patch, the overall gain with optimistic spinning is
still ~+45%. The 'disk' workload even improved by ~+15% at >1000 users.

Urgh.. so the only way I can make that happen is through:

  perf_event_exit_task_context()
    raw_spin_lock(&child_ctx->lock);
    unclone_ctx(child_ctx)
      put_ctx(ctx->parent_ctx);
    raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&child_ctx->lock);

And we can avoid this by doing the change below.

I can't immediately see how this changed recently, but given that you
say it's easy to reproduce, lets fix this.
