Adjust to color thresholds to better match the percentages seen in
real workloads. Both are now a bit more sensitive.

Extend the Intel and AMD event definitions with generic front-end and

Add two generic hardware events: front-end and back-end stalled cycles.
These events measure conditions when the CPU is executing code but its
capabilities are not fully utilized. Understanding such situations and
analyzing them is an important sub-task of code optimization workflows.
Both events limit performance: most front end stalls tend to be caused
by branch misprediction or instruction fetch cachemisses, backend
stalls can be caused by various resource shortages or inefficient
instruction scheduling.
Front-end stalls are the more important ones: code cannot run fast
if the instruction stream is not being kept up.
An over-utilized back-end can cause front-end stalls and thus
has to be kept an eye on as well.
The exact composition is very program logic and instruction mix
dependent.
We use the terms 'stall', 'front-end' and 'back-end' loosely and
try to use the best available events from specific CPUs that
approximate these concepts.

Instead of failing on an unknown event, when new perf stat is run on
older kernels:
$ ./perf stat true
Error: open_counter returned with 22 (Invalid argument). /bin/dmesg
may provide additional information.
Fatal: Not all events could be opened.
Just ignore EINVAL and ENOSYS, we'll print the results as not counted:

--sync will tell perf stat to run sync() before starting a command.
This allows IO-heavy tests to be used with --repeat, without one
iteration impacting the other.
Elapsed time will stabilize for example:
before: 3.971525714 seconds time elapsed ( +- 8.56% )
after: 3.211098537 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.52% )
So measurements will be more accurate.

Use the UOPS_EXECUTED.*,c=1,i=1 event on Intel CPUs - it is a rather
good indicator of CPU execution stalls, more sensitive and more inclusive
than the 0xa2 resource stalls event (which does not count nearly as many
stall types).

-d can also be used in addition to other -e events, to further expand an event list.

Print the missed-branches percentage with different warning level ASCII colors,
as the percentage passes the 5%/10%/20% thresholds.
These thresholds are set to relatively low levels, because on most CPUs even a
moderate percentage of branch-misses already shows up as a slowdown.

Performance counter stats for './loop_1b_instructions':
236.010686 task-clock # 0.996 CPUs utilized
0 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec
0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec

# 0.35 stalled cycles per insn

12,646 branch-misses # 0.013 % of all branches
0.236902540 seconds time elapsed
We dropped cache-refs and cache-misses and added stalled-cycles - this is a
more generic "how well utilized is the CPU" metric.
If the stalled-cycles ratio is too high then more specific measurements can be
taken to figure out the source of the inefficiency.

Add stalled cycles accounting and use it to print the "cycles stalled per

Also change the unit of the cycles output from M/sec to GHz - this is more
intuitive.
Prettify the output to:

Right now we display this by default:
0.202204 task-clock-msecs # 0.282 CPUs
0 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec
0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec
85 page-faults # 0.420 M/sec
The task-clock-msecs event cannot actually be passed back as an
event name, the event name we recognize is 'task-clock'.
So change the output of the cpu-clock and task-clock events
to be idempotent.
( Units should be printed out in the right-side column, if needed. )

Currently we fail without printing any error message on "perf stat -e task-clock-msecs".
The reason is that the task-clock event is matched and the "-msecs" postfix is assumed
to be an event modifier - but is not recognized.
This patch changes the code to be more informative:
$ perf stat -e task-clock-msecs true
invalid event modifier: '-msecs'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events and modifiers
And restructures the return value of parse_event_modifier() to allow
the printing of all variants of invalid event modifiers.

We currently fail on something like '-e CPU-migrations', with:
invalid or unsupported event: 'CPU-migrations'
While 'CPU-migrations' is how we actually print out the event
in the default perf stat output:

0.202204 task-clock-msecs # 0.282 CPUs
0 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec
0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec

On Nehalem CPUs the retired branch-misses event can be completely bogus,
when there are no branch-misses occuring. When there are a lot of branch
misses then the count is pretty accurate. Still, this leaves us with an
event that over-counts a lot.
Detect this erratum and work it around by using BR_MISP_EXEC.ANY events.
These will also count speculated branches but still it's a lot more
precise in practice than the architectural event.

After 57db4e8d73ef2b5e94a3f412108dff2576670a8a changed eCryptfs to
write-back caching, eCryptfs page writeback updates the lower inode
times due to the use of vfs_write() on the lower file.
To preserve inode metadata changes, such as 'cp -p' does with
utimensat(), we need to flush all dirty pages early in
ecryptfs_setattr() so that the user-updated lower inode metadata isn't
clobbered later in writeback.

When failing to read the lower file's crypto metadata during a lookup,
eCryptfs must continue on without throwing an error. For example, there
may be a plaintext file in the lower mount point that the user wants to
delete through the eCryptfs mount.
If an error is encountered while reading the metadata in lookup(), the
eCryptfs inode's size could be incorrect. We must be sure to reread the
plaintext inode size from the metadata when performing an open() or
setattr(). The metadata is already being read in those paths, so this
adds minimal performance overhead.
This patch introduces a flag which will track whether or not the
plaintext inode size has been read so that an incorrect i_size can be
fixed in the open() or setattr() paths.

For any given lower inode, eCryptfs keeps only one lower file open and
multiplexes all eCryptfs file operations through that lower file. The
lower file was considered "persistent" and stayed open from the first
lookup through the lifetime of the inode.
This patch keeps the notion of a single, per-inode lower file, but adds
reference counting around the lower file so that it is closed when not
currently in use. If the reference count is at 0 when an operation (such
as open, create, etc.) needs to use the lower file, a new lower file is
opened. Since the file is no longer persistent, all references to the
term persistent file are changed to lower file.
Locking is added around the sections of code that opens the lower file
and assign the pointer in the inode info, as well as the code the fputs
the lower file when all eCryptfs users are done with it.
This patch is needed to fix issues, when mounted on top of the NFSv3
client, where the lower file is left silly renamed until the eCryptfs
inode is destroyed.

vfs_rmdir() already calls d_delete() on the lower dentry. That was being
duplicated in ecryptfs_rmdir() and caused a NULL pointer dereference
when NFSv3 was the lower filesystem.

Now that the security modules can decide whether they support the
dcache RCU walk or not it's possible to make selinux a bit more
RCU friendly. The SELinux AVC and security server access decision
code is RCU safe. A specific piece of the LSM audit code may not
be RCU safe.
This patch makes the VFS RCU walk retry if it would hit the non RCU
safe chunk of code. It will normally just work under RCU. This is
done simply by passing the VFS RCU state as a flag down into the
avc_audit() code and returning ECHILD there if it would have an issue.

Now that the whole dcache_hash_bucket crap is gone, go all the way and
also remove the weird locking layering violations for locking the hash
buckets. Add hlist_bl_lock/unlock helpers to move the locking into the
list abstraction instead of requiring each caller to open code it.
After all allowing for the bit locks is the whole point of these helpers
over the plain hlist variant.

When we are waiting for the bit-lock to be released, and are looping
over the 'cpu_relax()' should not be doing anything else - otherwise we
miss the point of trying to do the whole 'cpu_relax()'.
Do the preemption enable/disable around the loop, rather than inside of
it.

__d_drop usage, and the code just looked very odd.

vfs: get rid of insane dentry hashing rules

The dentry hashing rules have been really quite complicated for a long
while, in odd ways. That made functions like __d_drop() very fragile
and non-obvious.
In particular, whether a dentry was hashed or not was indicated with an
explicit DCACHE_UNHASHED bit. That's despite the fact that the hash
abstraction that the dentries use actually have a 'is this entry hashed
or not' model (which is a simple test of the 'pprev' pointer).
The reason that was done is because we used the normal 'is this entry
unhashed' model to mark whether the dentry had _ever_ been hashed in the
dentry hash tables, and that logic goes back many years (commit
b3423415fbc2: "dcache: avoid RCU for never-hashed dentries").
That, in turn, meant that __d_drop had totally different unhashing logic
for the dentry hash table case and for the anonymous dcache case,
because in order to use the "is this dentry hashed" logic as a flag for
whether it had ever been on the RCU hash table, we had to unhash such a
dentry differently so that we'd never think that it wasn't 'unhashed'
and wouldn't be free'd correctly.
That's just insane. It made the logic really hard to follow, when there
were two different kinds of "unhashed" states, and one of them (the one
that used "list_bl_unhashed()") really had nothing at all to do with
being unhashed per se, but with a very subtle lifetime rule instead.
So turn all of it around, and make it logical.
Instead of having a DENTRY_UNHASHED bit in d_flags to indicate whether
the dentry is on the hash chains or not, use the hash chain unhashed
logic for that. Suddenly "d_unhashed()" just uses "list_bl_unhashed()",
and everything makes sense.
And for the lifetime rule, just use an explicit DENTRY_RCUACCEES bit.
If we ever insert the dentry into the dentry hash table so that it is
visible to RCU lookup, we mark it DENTRY_RCUACCESS to show that it now
needs the RCU lifetime rules. Now suddently that test at dentry free
time makes sense too.
And because unhashing now is sane and doesn't depend on where the dentry
got unhashed from (because the dentry hash chain details doesn't have
some subtle side effects), we can re-unify the __d_drop() logic and use
common code for the unhashing.
Also fix one more open-coded hash chain bit_spin_lock() that I missed in
the previous chain locking cleanup commit.

The ahci_pmp_attach() & ahci_pmp_detach() unmask port irqs, but they
are also called during port initialization, before ahci host irq
handler is registered. On ce4100 platform, this sometimes triggers
"irq 4: nobody cared" message when loading driver.
Fixed this by not touching the register if the port is in frozen
state, and mark all uninitialized port as frozen.
