* x86, hpet: Simplify the HPET codeJan Beulich2009-08-212-23/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On 64-bits, using unsigned long when unsigned int suffices needlessly creates larger code (due to the need for REX prefixes), and most of the logic in hpet.c really doesn't need 64-bit operations. At once this avoids the need for a couple of type casts.

* x86, hpet: Disable per-cpu hpet timer if ARAT is supportedShaohua Li2009-08-121-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | If CPU support always running local APIC timer, per-cpu hpet timer could be disabled, which is useless and wasteful in such case. Let's leave the timers to others. The effect is that we reserve less timers.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Between GCC version 3.4.0 and 4.3.3 (including 3.4.0 and 4.3.3), -mtune=merced is implemented in GCC. Starting from 4.4.0, -mtune=merced is deprecated. Even implemented in versions between 3.4.0 and 4.3.3, the -mtune=merced feature has been broken in some of the versions. For example, GCC 4.1.2 reports interanl tuning function errors during kernel building with -mtune=merced. Or GCC Bugzilla 16130 reports another -mtune=merced issue on GCC 3.4.1. So I would remove the -mtune=merced from IA64 kernel build. Without this option, kernel on Merced will remain the same except losing an unstable and out-of-date performance tunning feature. Since GCC version 3.4.0, -mtune=mckinley has been implemented. The -mtune=mckinley option functions the same as mtune=itanium2. And mtune=itanium2 is the default option. So we don't need to add mtune=mckinley either since its been the default option in any GCC version which implements this option. Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com>

Unfortunately, this resulted in some confusion and made some people try to convert drivers by replacing the old callbacks with struct dev_pm_ops in automatic way, which generally is not a good idea. Remove the platform device runtime dev_pm_ops warning for now, because it's annoying to users and it's not really necessary right now.

* pty: fix data loss when stopped (^S/^Q)Linus Torvalds2009-08-101-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit d945cb9cc ("pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic") dropped the test for 'tty->stopped' in pty_write_room(), which then causes the n_tty line discipline thing to not throttle the data properly when the tty is stopped. So instead of pausing the write due to the tty being stopped, the ldisc layer would go ahead and push it down to the pty. The pty write() routine would then refuse to take the data (because it _did_ check 'stopped'), and the data wouldn't actually be written. This whole stopped test should eventually be moved into the tty ldisc layer rather than have low-level tty drivers care about these things, but right now the fix is to just re-instate the missing pty 'stopped' handling.

It is abnormal to get a 7.14% branch whereas we passed a 10% filter. The problem is that we round down the minimum threshold. This happens mostly when we have very low number of events. If the total amount of your branch is 4 and you have a subranch of 3 events, filtering to 90% will be computed like follows: limit = 4 * 0.9; The result is about 3.6, but the cast to integer will round down to 3. It means that our filter is actually of 75% We must then explicitly round up the minimum threshold.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | callchains When the callchain tree comes to insert an empty backtrace, it raises a spurious warning about the fact we are inserting an empty. This is spurious because the radix tree assumes it did something wrong to reach this state. But it didn't, we just met an empty callchain that has to be ignored. This happens occasionally with certain types of call-chain recordings. If it happens it's a big nuisance as perf report output starts with thousands of warning lines.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. Ignore the -A argument if there is no perf.data file 2. Treat an empty file like a non existent file. Else, perf will try to read the perf.data header, and fail with an error. Treating an empty file like a non-existent file makes sense, since an interupted (as in SIGKILLed) perf could leave such files around, and you don't want to annoy the user with errors for files with no data in it.

This fixes the problem by adding a check if ppmu is NULL at the beginning of hw_perf_group_sched_in, and also at the beginning of the other functions that get called from the perf_counter core, i.e. hw_perf_disable, hw_perf_enable, and hw_perf_counter_setup.

I think that the real issue isn't even an SMI - but the fact that in the very last iteration of the loop, there's no serializing instruction _after_ the last 'rdtsc'. So even in the absense of SMI's, we do have a situation where the cycle counter was read without proper serialization. The last check should be done outside the outer loop, since _inside_ the outer loop, we'll be testing that the PIT has the right MSB value has the right value in the next iteration. So only the _last_ iteration is special, because that's the one that will not check the PIT MSB value any more, and because the final 'get_cycles()' isn't serialized. In other words: - I'd like to move the PIT MSB check to after the last iteration, rather than in every iteration - I think we should comment on the fact that it's also a serializing instruction and so 'fences in' the TSC read. Here's a suggested replacement.
