Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"There are lots of improvements, the biggest changes are:

Main kernel side changes:

- Improve uprobes performance by adding 'pre-filtering' support, by
Oleg Nesterov.

- Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to what was
done on x86, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu.

- tracing updates by Steve Rostedt - mostly misc fixes and smaller
improvements.

- Use perf/event tracing to report PCI Express advanced errors, by
Tony Luck.

- Enable northbridge performance counters on AMD family 15h, by Jacob
Shin.

- This tracing commit:

tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events

changes the ABI. All involved parties (PowerTop in particular)
seem to agree that it's safe to do now with the introduction of
libtraceevent, but the devil is in the details ...

Main tooling side changes:

- Add 'event group view', from Namyung Kim:

To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording. And
then perf report parses the saved group relation from file header
and prints them together if --group option is provided. You can
use the 'perf evlist' command to see event group information:

$ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ]

$ perf evlist --group
{ref-cycles,cycles}

With this example, default perf report will show you each event
separately.

You can use --group option to enable event group view:

$ perf report --group
...
# group: {ref-cycles,cycles}
# ========
# Samples: 7K of event 'anon group { ref-cycles, cycles }'
# Event count (approx.): 6876107743
#
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ................ ....... ................. ..........................
99.84% 99.76% noploop noploop [.] main
0.07% 0.00% noploop ld-2.15.so [.] strcmp
0.03% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] timerqueue_del
0.03% 0.03% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sched_clock_cpu
0.02% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] account_user_time
0.01% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __alloc_pages_nodemask
0.00% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] native_write_msr_safe
0.00% 0.11% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock
0.00% 0.06% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_page
0.00% 0.02% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] rcu_check_callbacks
0.00% 0.02% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __current_kernel_time

As you can see the Overhead column now contains both of ref-cycles
and cycles and header line shows group information also - 'anon
group { ref-cycles, cycles }'. The output is sorted by period of
group leader first.

- Initial GTK+ annotate browser, from Namhyung Kim.

- Add option for runtime switching perf data file in perf report,
just press 's' and a menu with the valid files found in the current
directory will be presented, from Feng Tang.

- Add support to display whole group data for raw columns, from Jiri
Olsa.

- Add per processor socket count aggregation in perf stat, from
Stephane Eranian.

- Add interval printing in 'perf stat', from Stephane Eranian.

- 'perf test' improvements

- Add support for wildcards in tracepoint system name, from Jiri
Olsa.

- Add anonymous huge page recognition, from Joshua Zhu.

- perf build-id cache now can show DSOs present in a perf.data file
that are not in the cache, to integrate with build-id servers being
put in place by organizations such as Fedora.

- perf top now shares more of the evsel config/creation routines with
'record', paving the way for further integration like 'top'
snapshots, etc.

- perf top now supports DWARF callchains.

- Fix mmap limitations on 32-bit, fix from David Miller.

- 'perf bench numa mem' NUMA performance measurement suite

- ... and lots of fixes, performance improvements, cleanups and other
improvements I failed to list - see the shortlog and git log for
details."

samples/seccomp: be less stupid about cross compiling

2013-02-05T09:38:49+00:00

The seccomp filters are currently built for the build host, not for the
machine that they are going to run on, but they are also built for with
the -m32 flag if the kernel is built for a 32 bit machine, both of which
seems rather odd.

It broke allyesconfig on my machine, which is x86-64, but building for
32 bit ARM, with this error message:

  In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:28:0,
                   from samples/seccomp/bpf-fancy.c:15:
  /usr/include/features.h:324:26: fatal error: bits/predefs.h: No such file or directory

because there are no 32 bit libc headers installed on this machine.  We
should really be building all the samples for the target machine rather
than the build host, but since the infrastructure for that appears to be
missing right now, let's be a little bit smarter and not pass the '-m32'
flag to the HOSTCC when cross- compiling.

tracing: Remove tracepoint sample code

2013-01-25T16:22:11+00:00

The tracepoint sample code was used to teach developers how to
create their own tracepoints. But now the trace_events have been
added as a higher level that is used directly by developers today.

Only the trace_event code should use the tracepoint interface
directly and no new tracepoints should be added.

Besides, the example had a race condition with the use of the
 ->d_name.name dentry field, as pointed out by Al Viro.

Best just to remove the code so it wont be used by other developers.

misc: remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:16+00:00

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the last of the __dev* markings from the kernel from
a variety of different, tiny, places.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

samples/seccomp: fix 31 bit build on s390

2012-09-12T02:55:31+00:00

On s390 the flag to force 31 builds is -m31 instead of -m32 unlike
on all (?) other architectures.

Fixes this compile error:

  HOSTCC  samples/seccomp/bpf-direct.o
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-m32"

samples/seccomp: fix endianness bug in LO_ARG define

2012-08-03T04:27:40+00:00

The LO_ARG define needs to consider endianness also for 32 bit builds.

The "bpf_fancy" test case didn't work on s390 in 32 bit and compat mode
because the LO_ARG define resulted in a BPF program which read the upper
halve of the 64 bit system call arguments instead of the lower halves.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/hid

2012-07-24T20:30:14+00:00

Pull HID updates from Jiri Kosina:
 "The list of changes worth pointing out explicitly:

  - We are getting 'UHID', which is a new framework for implementing HID
    transport drivers in userspace (this is different from HIDRAW, which
    is transport-independent and provides report parsing facilities;
    uhid is for the other (transport) part of the pipeline).

    It's needed for (and currently being used by) Bluetooth-LowEnergy,
    as its specification mandates things we don't want in the kernel.

    Written by David Herrmann.

  - there have been quite a few bugs in runtime suspend/resume paths
    (probably never reported to actually happen in the wild, but still).
    Alan Stern fixed those.

  - a few other driver updates and fixes and random new device support."
