Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Another small bug reported to me by Chunyu Hu.
When perf added a "reg" function to the function tracing event (not a
tracepoint), it caused that event to be displayed as a tracepoint and
could cause errors in tracepoint handling. That was solved by adding
a flag to ignore ftrace non-tracepoint events. But that flag was
missed when displaying events in available_events, which should only
contain tracepoint events.
This broke a documented way to enable all events with:
cat available_events > set_event
As the function non-tracepoint event would cause that to error out.
The commit here fixes that by having the available_events file not
list events that have the ignore flag set"

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
- Two fixes for compatibility with the ACPI 6.1 specification.
Without these fixes multi-interface DIMMs will fail to be probed, and
address range scrub commands to find memory errors will give results
that the kernel will mis-interpret. For multi-interface DIMMs Linux
will accept either the original 6.0 implementation or 6.1.
For address range scrub we'll only support 6.1 since ACPI formalized
this DSM differently than the original example [1] implemented in
v4.2. The expectation is that production systems will only ever ship
the ACPI 6.1 address range scrub command definition.
- The wider async address range scrub work targeting 4.6 discovered
that the original synchronous implementation in 4.5 is not sizing its
return buffer correctly.
- Arnd caught that my recent fix to the size of the pfn_t flags missed
updating the flags variable used in the pmem driver.
- Toshi found that we mishandle the memremap() return value in
devm_memremap().

Currently any ctx_sched_in() call will re-start the ctx time tracking,
this means that calls like:
ctx_sched_in(.event_type = EVENT_PINNED);
ctx_sched_in(.event_type = EVENT_FLEXIBLE);
will have a hole in their ctx time tracking. This is likely harmless
but can confuse things a little. By adding EVENT_TIME, we can have the
first ctx_sched_in() (is_active: 0 -> !0) start the time and any
further ctx_sched_in() will leave the timestamps alone.
Secondly, this allows for an early disable like:
ctx_sched_out(.event_type = EVENT_TIME);
which would update the ctx time (if the ctx is active) and any further
calls to ctx_sched_out() would not further modify the ctx time.
For ctx_sched_in() any 0 -> !0 transition will automatically include
EVENT_TIME.
For ctx_sched_out(), any transition that clears EVENT_ALL will
automatically clear EVENT_TIME.
These two rules ensure that under normal circumstances we need not
bother with EVENT_TIME and get natural ctx time behaviour.

perf_install_in_context() relies upon the context switch hooks to have
scheduled in events when the IPI misses its target -- after all, if
the task has moved from the CPU (or wasn't running at all), it will
have to context switch to run elsewhere.
This however doesn't appear to be happening.
It is possible for the IPI to not happen (task wasn't running) only to
later observe the task running with an inactive context.
The only possible explanation is that the context switch hooks are not
called. Therefore put in a sync_sched() after toggling the jump_label
to guarantee all CPUs will have them enabled before we install an
event.
A simple if (0->1) sync_sched() will not in fact work, because any
further increment can race and complete before the sync_sched().
Therefore we must jump through some hoops.

Alexander reported that when the 'original' context gets destroyed, no
new clones happen.
This can happen irrespective of the ctx switch optimization, any task
can die, even the parent, and we want to continue monitoring the task
hierarchy until we either close the event or no tasks are left in the
hierarchy.
perf_event_init_context() will attempt to pin the 'parent' context
during clone(). At that point current is the parent, and since current
cannot have exited while executing clone(), its context cannot have
passed through perf_event_exit_task_context(). Therefore
perf_pin_task_context() cannot observe ctx->task == TASK_TOMBSTONE.
However, since inherit_event() does:
if (parent_event->parent)
parent_event = parent_event->parent;
it looks at the 'original' event when it does: is_orphaned_event().
This can return true if the context that contains the this event has
passed through perf_event_exit_task_context(). And thus we'll fail to
clone the perf context.
Fix this by adding a new state: STATE_DEAD, which is set by
perf_release() to indicate that the filedesc (or kernel reference) is
dead and there are no observers for our data left.
Only for STATE_DEAD will is_orphaned_event() be true and inhibit
cloning.
STATE_EXIT is otherwise preserved such that is_event_hup() remains
functional and will report when the observed task hierarchy becomes
empty.

The ftrace:function event is only displayed for parsing the function tracer
data. It is not used to enable function tracing, and does not include an
"enable" file in its event directory.
Originally, this event was kept separate from other events because it did
not have a ->reg parameter. But perf added a "reg" parameter for its use
which caused issues, because it made the event available to functions where
it was not compatible for.
Commit 9b63776fa3 "tracing: Do not enable function event with enable"
added a TRACE_EVENT_FL_IGNORE_ENABLE flag that prevented the function event
from being enabled by normal trace events. But this commit missed keeping
the function event from being displayed by the "available_events" directory,
which is used to show what events can be enabled by set_event.
One documented way to enable all events is to:
cat available_events > set_event
But because the function event is displayed in the available_events, this
now causes an INVALID error:
cat: write error: Invalid argument

devm_memremap() returns an ERR_PTR() value in case of error.
However, it returns NULL when memremap() failed. This causes
the caller, such as the pmem driver, to proceed and oops later.
Change devm_memremap() to return ERR_PTR(-ENXIO) when memremap()
failed.

"Two more small fixes.
One is by Yang Shi who added a READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() to the scan of the
stack made by the stack tracer. As the stack tracer scans the entire
kernel stack, KASAN triggers seeing it as a "stack out of bounds"
error. As the scan is looking at the contents of the stack from
parent functions. The NOCHECK() tells KASAN that this is done on
purpose, and is not some kind of stack overflow.
The second fix is to the ftrace selftests, to retrieve the PID of
executed commands from the shell with '$!' and not by parsing 'jobs'"

In __request_region, if a conflict with a BUSY and MUXED resource is
detected, then the caller goes to sleep and waits for the resource to be
released. A pointer on the conflicting resource is kept. At wake-up
this pointer is used as a parent to retry to request the region.
A first problem is that this pointer might well be invalid (if for
example the conflicting resource have already been freed). Another
problem is that the next call to __request_region() fails to detect a
remaining conflict. The previously conflicting resource is passed as a
parameter and __request_region() will look for a conflict among the
children of this resource and not at the resource itself. It is likely
to succeed anyway, even if there is still a conflict.
Instead, the parent of the conflicting resource should be passed to
__request_region().
As a fix, this patch doesn't update the parent resource pointer in the
case we have to wait for a muxed region right after.
