perf tools: Cross platform perf.data analysis support
There are still some problems related to loading vmlinux files,
but those are unrelated to the feature implemented in this
patch, so will get fixed in the next patches, but here are some
results:
1. collect perf.data file on a Fedora 12 machine, x86_64, 64-bit
userland
2. transfer it to a Debian Testing machine, PARISC64, 32-bit
userland
acme@parisc:~/git/linux-2.6-tip$ perf report --sort comm
The file [kernel.kallsyms] cannot be used, trying to use /proc/kallsyms...
^^^^ The problem related to vmlinux handling, it shouldn't be trying this
^^^^ rather alien /proc/kallsyms at all...

<SNIP more complaints about not finding the right build-ids,
those will have to wait for 'perf archive' or plain
copying what was collected by 'perf record' on the x86_64,
source machine, see further below for an example of this >
So I think this is really, really nice in that it demonstrates
the portability of perf.data files and the use of build-ids
accross such aliens worlds :-)
There are some things to fix tho, like the bitmap on the header,
but things are looking good.

perf tools: Encode kernel module mappings in perf.data
We were always looking at the running machine /proc/modules,
even when processing a perf.data file, which only makes sense
when we're doing 'perf record' and 'perf report' on the same
machine, and in close sucession, or if we don't use modules at
all, right Peter? ;-)
Now, at 'perf record' time we read /proc/modules, find the long
path for modules, and put them as PERF_MMAP events, just like we
did to encode the reloc reference symbol for vmlinux. Talking
about that now it is encoded in .pgoff, so that we can use
.{start,len} to store the address boundaries for the kernel so
that when we reconstruct the kmaps tree we can do lookups right
away, without having to fixup the end of the kernel maps like we
did in the past (and now only in perf record).
One more step in the 'perf archive' direction when we'll finally
be able to collect data in one machine and analyse in another.

DSOs don't have this problem because the kernel emits a
PERF_MMAP for each new executable mapping it performs on
monitored threads.
To fix the kernel case we simulate the same behaviour, by having
'perf record' to synthesize a PERF_MMAP for the kernel, encoded
like this:
[root@doppio ~]# perf record -a -f sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.344 MB perf.data (~15038 samples) ]
[root@doppio ~]# perf report -D | head -10
.pid = 0
.filename = [kernel.kallsyms.REFNAME]
.start = REFNAME addr in /proc/kallsyms at 'perf record' time
and use now a hardcoded value of '.text' for REFNAME.
Then, later, in 'perf report', if there are any kernel hits and
thus we need to resolve kernel symbols, we search for REFNAME
and if its address changed, relocation happened and we thus must
change the kernel mapping routines to one that uses .pgoff as
the relocation to apply.
This way we use the same mechanism used for the other DSOs and
don't have to do a two pass in all the kernel symbols.

sata_promise: don't classify overruns as HSM errors
When sata_promise encounters an overrun or underrun error it
translates that to a libata AC_ERR_HSM, causing a hard reset.
Since over/under-runs were thought to be rare and transient,
this action seemed reasonable.
Unfortunately it turns out that the controller throws overrun
errors when e.g. hal polls a CD or DVD writer containing blank
media, causing long sequences of hard resets and retries before
EH finally gives up.
This patch updates sata_promise to classify over/under-runs as
AC_ERR_OTHER instead. This allows libata EH and upper layers to
retry or fail the operation as they see fit without the disruption
caused by repeated hard resets.
This fixes a problem using a DVD-RAM drive with sata_promise,

According to Suresh, this might be an IBM platform issue, as on other
Intel platforms with <= 8 logical cpu's, logical flat mode works fine
irespective of physical apic id values (inline with the xapic
architecture).
Revert this for now because of the IBM platform breakage.
Another version will be re-submitted after the complete analysis.

Documentation/3c509: document ethtool support
3c509 was changed to support ethtool in 2002, making the 'xcvr' module
parameter obsolete in most cases. More recently 3c509 was converted
to the modern driver model and this parameter was removed. Fix the
documentation to refer to ethtool rather than the module parameter.

core, x86: make LIST_POISON less deadly
The list macros use LIST_POISON1 and LIST_POISON2 as undereferencable
pointers in order to trap erronous use of freed list_heads. Unfortunately
userspace can arrange for those pointers to actually be dereferencable,
potentially turning an oops to an expolit.
To avoid this allow architectures (currently x86_64 only) to override
the default values for these pointers with truly-undereferencable values.
This is easy on x86_64 as the virtual address space is large and contains
areas that cannot be mapped.
Other 64-bit architectures will likely find similar unmapped ranges.
[ingo: switch to 0xdead000000000000 as the unmapped area]
[ingo: add comments, cleanup]

mn10300: make the ASB2305's PCnet32 NIC work by using the PCI bridge's SRAM
Access to the ASB2305's PCnet32 NIC doesn't work correctly because when
the NIC attempts to update the ring buffer flags by DMA, the change to RAM
crops up about 17uS after the interrupt line is asserted. This is almost
certainly due to a bug in the PCI bridge FPGA on that board.
We can get around this by making dma_alloc_coherent() put the ring buffer
in the SRAM attached to the PCI bridge rather than in the SDRAM.

mn10300: insert PCI root bus resources for the ASB2305 devel motherboard
Insert PCI root bus resources for the MN10300-based ASB2305 development
kit motherboard. This is required because the CPU's window onto the PCI
bus address space is considerably smaller than the CPU's full address
space and non-PCI devices lie outside of the PCI window that we might want
to access.
Without this patch, the PCI root bus uses the platform-level bus
resources, and these are then confined to the PCI window, thus making
platform_device_add() reject devices outside of this window.
We also add a reservation for the PCI SRAM region.

mn10300: add cc clobbers to asm statements
gcc 4.2.1 for MN10300 is more agressive than the older gcc in
reordering/moving other insns between an insn that sets flags and an insn
that uses those flags. This leads to trouble with asm statements which
are missing an explicit "cc" clobber. This patch adds the explicit "cc"
clobber to asm statements which do indeed clobber the condition flags.

mn10300: signal stack fix
This fixes a signal stack handling problem in the MN10300 arch. When new
threads are cloned with CLONE_VM, they don't inherit the alternate signal
stack. They do share the signal flags, though. When deciding whether to
use an alternate stack, the arch code needs to check to make sure the task
struct contains a valid alternate stack. This patch fixes the MN10300
arch by using the sas_ss_flags() test provided by sched.h rather than the
on_sig_stack() test which is insufficient by itself.
