* perf tools: Merge trace.info content into perf.dataFrederic Weisbecker2009-10-078-18/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This drops the trace.info file and move its contents into the common perf.data file. This is done by creating a new trace_info section into this file. A user of perf headers needs to call perf_header__set_trace_info() to save the trace meta informations into the perf.data file. A file created by perf after his patch is unsupported by previous version because the size of the headers have increased. That said, it's two new fields that have been added in the end of the headers, and those could be ignored by previous versions if they just handled the dynamic header size and then ignore the unknow part. The offsets guarantee the compatibility. We'll do a -stable fix for that. But current previous versions handle the header size using its static size, not dynamic, then it's not backward compatible with trace records.

* perf tools: Start the perf.data mapping at data offset in perf traceFrederic Weisbecker2009-10-071-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we are mapping perf.data in the beginning of the file and use the data offset as a buffer offset. This may exceed the mapping area if the data offset is upper than page_size * mmap_window and result in a page fault (thing that happen if we merge trace.info in perf.data). Instead, let's start the mapping in the page that matches our data offset. v2: Drop a junk from another patch (trace_report() removal) Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <1254856886-10348-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* perf tools: Default to 1 KHz auto-sampling freq eventsIngo Molnar2009-10-062-45/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use auto-freq events by default in perf record and perf top. This allows more consistent hardware event sampling, regardless of the intensity of the underlying event. It also keeps us from over-sampling on larger/busier systems. (also make surrounding initializations more consistent) Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| * perf_event: Provide vmalloc() based mmap() backingPeter Zijlstra2009-10-065-62/+214
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some architectures such as Sparc, ARM and MIPS (basically everything with flush_dcache_page()) need to deal with dcache aliases by carefully placing pages in both kernel and user maps. These architectures typically have to use vmalloc_user() for this. However, on other architectures, vmalloc() is not needed and has the downsides of being more restricted and slower than regular allocations.

| * perf timechart: Add a power-only modeArjan van de Ven2009-10-013-4/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For doing work on the Linux power management components, I need to make long (30+ seconds) traces. Currently, this then results in a HUGE svg file, with mostly process data that isn't interesting. This patch adds a --power-only mode to perf timechart that only outputs the CPU power section of the SVG; this significantly reduces the size of the SVG file, making even 30+ second traces viewable with inkscape. As a minor tweak for the same effect, the minimum text size is decreased; current inkscape cannot zoom in deep enough to show text this small, but it reduces inkscape compute time.

Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion: Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case it seems to do the wrong thing. Opening a tty that is closing (and could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO. I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions. tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty onto the waitqueue for destruction tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs. We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0 ... the end) to occur asynchronously The USB update in -next would then need a call like if (tty->cleanup) tty->cleanup(tty); at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep. In other words the logic becomes final kref put make object unfindable async clean it up Signed-off-by: Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> [ rjw: Rebased on top of 2.6.31-git, reworked the changelog. ] Signed-off-by: "Rafael J.

No specific test case was required to observe this effect. This occurres because there was no check to see if the currently removed or restarted hrtimer was: 1) the one which previously armed the clock events device. 2) going to be replaced by another timer which has the same expiry time. Avoid the reprogramming in hrtimer_force_reprogram when the new expiry value which is evaluated from the clock bases is equal to cpu_base->expires_next.

I propose to reword the message to: ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use it instead of the native driver which I think is more correct.

IA64 implementation has a couple of differences because of the available atomic operations ... e.g. we have no fetchadd2 instruction that operates on a 16-bit quantity so we make ticket locks use a 32-bit word for each of the current ticket and now-serving values. Performance on uncontended locks is about 8% worse than the previous implementation, but this seems a good trade for determinism in the contended case. Performance impact on macro-level benchmarks is in the noise. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y) unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an oops as does a device being registered late.

The device can also autonomously control the LEDs based on a selection of sources. This can be configured at boot time using either platform data or the chip OTP. A sysfs file in the style of that for triggers allowing the control source to be configured at run time. Triggers can't be used here since they can't depend on the implementation details of a specific LED type.
