perf sort: Separate out branch stack specific sort keys
Current perf report gets segmentation fault when a branch stack specific
sort key is provided by --sort option to a perf.data file which contains
no branch infomation. It's because those sort keys reference branch
info of a hist entry unconditionally. Maybe we can change it checks
whether such branch info is valid or not. But if the branch stacks are
not recorded, it'd be nop. Thus it'd be better to make those keys are
unselectable.
This patch separates those keys to a different dimension array, so that
if user passes such a key to a file which has no branch stack will get
following message rather than a segfault.

This looks not so good since we have trees for collecting or collapsing

also moved the call of snd_hda_jack_set_dirty_all() in the resume path
after resume/init ops call. This caused a regression when the jack
state has been changed during power-down (e.g. in the power save
mode). Since the driver doesn't probe the new jack state but keeps
using the cached value due to no dirty flag, the pin state remains
also as if the jack is still plugged.

ftrace: Use only the preempt version of function tracing
The function tracer had two different versions of function tracing.
The disabling of irqs version and the preempt disable version.
As function tracing in very intrusive and can cause nasty recursion
issues, it has its own recursion protection. But the old method to
do this was a flat layer. If it detected that a recursion was happening
then it would just return without recording.
This made the preempt version (much faster than the irq disabling one)
not very useful, because if an interrupt were to occur after the
recursion flag was set, the interrupt would not be traced at all,
because every function that was traced would think it recursed on
itself (due to the context it preempted setting the recursive flag).
Now that we have a recursion flag for every context level, we
no longer need to worry about that. We can disable preemption,
set the current context recursion check bit, and go on. If an
interrupt were to come along, it would check its own context bit
and happily continue to trace.
As the preempt version is faster than the irq disable version,
there's no more reason to keep the preempt version around.
And the irq disable version still had an issue with missing
out on tracing NMI code.
Remove the irq disable function tracer version and have the
preempt disable version be the default (and only version).

When function tracing occurs, the following steps are made:
If arch does not support a ftrace feature:
call internal function (uses INTERNAL bits) which calls...
If callback is registered to the "global" list, the list
function is called and recursion checks the GLOBAL bits.
then this function calls...
The function callback, which can use the FTRACE bits to
check for recursion.
Now if the arch does not suppport a feature, and it calls
the global list function which calls the ftrace callback
all three of these steps will do a recursion protection.
There's no reason to do one if the previous caller already
did. The recursion that we are protecting against will
go through the same steps again.
To prevent the multiple recursion checks, if a recursion
bit is set that is higher than the MAX bit of the current
check, then we know that the check was made by the previous
caller, and we can skip the current check.

ftrace: Add context level recursion bit checking
Currently for recursion checking in the function tracer, ftrace
tests a task_struct bit to determine if the function tracer had
recursed or not. If it has, then it will will return without going
further.
But this leads to races. If an interrupt came in after the bit
was set, the functions being traced would see that bit set and
think that the function tracer recursed on itself, and would return.
Instead add a bit for each context (normal, softirq, irq and nmi).
A check of which context the task is in is made before testing the
associated bit. Now if an interrupt preempts the function tracer
after the previous context has been set, the interrupt functions
can still be traced.

ftrace: Optimize the function tracer list loop
There is lots of places that perform:
op = rcu_dereference_raw(ftrace_control_list);
while (op != &ftrace_list_end) {
Add a helper macro to do this, and also optimize for a single
entity. That is, gcc will optimize a loop for either no iterations
or more than one iteration. But usually only a single callback
is registered to the function tracer, thus the optimized case
should be a single pass. to do this we now do:
op = rcu_dereference_raw(list);
do {
[...]
} while (likely(op = rcu_dereference_raw((op)->next)) &&
unlikely((op) != &ftrace_list_end));
An op is always registered (ftrace_list_end when no callbacks is
registered), thus when a single callback is registered, the link
list looks like:
top => callback => ftrace_list_end => NULL.
The likely(op = op->next) still must be performed due to the race
of removing the callback, where the first op assignment could
equal ftrace_list_end. In that case, the op->next would be NULL.
But this is unlikely (only happens in a race condition when
removing the callback).
But it is very likely that the next op would be ftrace_list_end,
unless more than one callback has been registered. This tells
gcc what the most common case is and makes the fast path with
the least amount of branches.

tracing: Fix race with max_tr and changing tracers
There's a race condition between the setting of a new tracer and
the update of the max trace buffers (the swap). When a new tracer
is added, it sets current_trace to nop_trace before disabling
the old tracer. At this moment, if the old tracer uses update_max_tr(),
the update may trigger the warning against !current_trace->use_max-tr,
as nop_trace doesn't have that set.
As update_max_tr() requires that interrupts be disabled, we can
add a check to see if current_trace == nop_trace and bail if it
does. Then when disabling the current_trace, set it to nop_trace
and run synchronize_sched(). This will make sure all calls to
update_max_tr() have completed (it was called with interrupts disabled).
As a clean up, this commit also removes shrinking and recreating
the max_tr buffer if the old and new tracers both have use_max_tr set.
The old way use to always shrink the buffer, and then expand it
for the next tracer. This is a waste of time.

async: fix __lowest_in_progress()
Commit 083b804c4d3e ("async: use workqueue for worker pool") made it
possible that async jobs are moved from pending to running out-of-order.
While pending async jobs will be queued and dispatched for execution in
the same order, nothing guarantees they'll enter "1) move self to the
running queue" of async_run_entry_fn() in the same order.
Before the conversion, async implemented its own worker pool. An async
worker, upon being woken up, fetches the first item from the pending
list, which kept the executing lists sorted. The conversion to
workqueue was done by adding work_struct to each async_entry and async
just schedules the work item. The queueing and dispatching of such work
items are still in order but now each worker thread is associated with a
specific async_entry and moves that specific async_entry to the
executing list. So, depending on which worker reaches that point
earlier, which is non-deterministic, we may end up moving an async_entry
with larger cookie before one with smaller one.
This broke __lowest_in_progress(). running->domain may not be properly
sorted and is not guaranteed to contain lower cookies than pending list
when not empty. Fix it by ensuring sort-inserting to the running list
and always looking at both pending and running when trying to determine
the lowest cookie.
Over time, the async synchronization implementation became quite messy.
We better restructure it such that each async_entry is linked to two
lists - one global and one per domain - and not move it when execution
starts. There's no reason to distinguish pending and running. They
behave the same for synchronization purposes.

Pull ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Kprobes now uses the function tracer if it can. That is, if a probe
is placed on a function mcount/nop location, and the arch supports it,
instead of adding a breakpoint, kprobes will register a function
callback as that is much more efficient.
The function tracer requires to update modules before they run, and
uses the module notifier to do so. But if something else in the
module notifiers registers a kprobe at one of these locations, before
ftrace can get to it, then the system could fail.
The function tracer must be initialized early, otherwise module
notifiers that probe will only work by chance."

ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILL
putreg() assumes that the tracee is not running and pt_regs_access() can
safely play with its stack. However a killed tracee can return from
ptrace_stop() to the low-level asm code and do RESTORE_REST, this means
that debugger can actually read/modify the kernel stack until the tracee
does SAVE_REST again.
set_task_blockstep() can race with SIGKILL too and in some sense this
race is even worse, the very fact the tracee can be woken up breaks the
logic.
As Linus suggested we can clear TASK_WAKEKILL around the arch_ptrace()
call, this ensures that nobody can ever wakeup the tracee while the
debugger looks at it. Not only this fixes the mentioned problems, we
can do some cleanups/simplifications in arch_ptrace() paths.
Probably ptrace_unfreeze_traced() needs more callers, for example it
makes sense to make the tracee killable for oom-killer before
access_process_vm().
While at it, add the comment into may_ptrace_stop() to explain why
ptrace_stop() still can't rely on SIGKILL and signal_pending_state().

arm64: makefile: fix uname munging when setting ARCH on native machine
By popular demand, arch/aarch64 is now known as arch/arm64. However,
uname -m (and indeed the GNU triplet) still use aarch64 as the machine
string.
This patch fixes native builds of both the kernel and perf tools by
updating the relevant Makefiles to munge the output of uname -m and
set the ARCH variable appropriately.

arm64: elf: fix core dumping to match what glibc expects
The kernel's internal definition of ELF_NGREG uses struct pt_regs, which
means that we disagree with userspace on the size of coredumps since
glibc correctly uses the user-visible struct user_pt_regs.
This patch fixes our ELF_NGREG definition to use struct user_pt_regs
and introduces our own ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS to convert between the user
and kernel structure definitions.

This patch (as1642) adds an ehci->priv field for private use by EHCI

have a name.
Until now none of the platform drivers has used this private space,
but that's about to change in the next patch of this series.

tracing: Remove trace.h header from trace_clock.c
