tracing: Add disable_on_free option
Add a trace option to disable tracing on free. When this option is
set, a write into the free_buffer file will not only shrink the
ring buffer down to zero, but it will also disable tracing.

tracing: Add a proc file to stop tracing and free buffer
The proc file entry buffer_size_kb is used to set the size of tracing
buffer. The memory to expand the buffer size is kernel memory. Consider
a use case where tracing is handled by a user space utility, which acts
as a gate keeper for tracing requests. In an OOM condition, tracing is
considered a low priority task and if the utility gets killed the ring
buffer memory cannot be released back to the kernel.
This patch adds a proc file called "free_buffer" whose purpose is to
stop tracing and free up the ring buffer when it is closed.
The user space process can then set the desired size in buffer_size_kb
file and open the fd to the "free_buffer" file. Under OOM condition, if
the process gets killed, the kernel closes the file descriptor. The
release handler stops the tracing and releases the kernel memory
automatically.

tracing: Use NUMA allocation for per-cpu ring buffer pages
The tracing ring buffer is a group of per-cpu ring buffers where
allocation and logging is done on a per-cpu basis. The events that are
generated on a particular CPU are logged in the corresponding buffer.
This is to provide wait-free writes between CPUs and good NUMA node
locality while accessing the ring buffer.
However, the allocation routines consider NUMA locality only for buffer
page metadata and not for the actual buffer page. This causes the pages
to be allocated on the NUMA node local to the CPU where the allocation
routine is running at the time.
This patch fixes the problem by using a NUMA node specific allocation
routine so that the pages are allocated from a NUMA node local to the
logging CPU.
I tested with the getuid_microbench from autotest. It is a simple binary
that calls getuid() in a loop and measures the average time for the
syscall to complete. The following command was used to test:
$ getuid_microbench 1000000
Compared the numbers found on kernel with and without this patch and
found that logging latency decreases by 30-50 ns/call.
tracing with non-NUMA allocation - 569 ns/call
tracing with NUMA allocation - 512 ns/call

In using syscall tracing by concurrent processes, the wakeup() that is
called in the event commit function causes contention on the spin lock
of the waitqueue. I enabled sys_enter_getuid and sys_exit_getuid
tracepoints, and by running getuid_microbench from autotest in parallel
I found that the contention causes exponential latency increase in the
tracing path.
The autotest binary getuid_microbench calls getuid() in a tight loop for
the given number of iterations and measures the average time required to
complete a single invocation of syscall.
The patch schedules a delayed work after 2 ms once an event commit calls
to wake up the trace wait_queue. This removes the delay caused by
contention on spin lock in wakeup() and amortizes the wakeup() calls
scheduled over the 2 ms period.
In the following example, the script enables the sys_enter_getuid and
sys_exit_getuid tracepoints and runs the getuid_microbench in parallel
with the given number of processes. The output clearly shows the latency
increase caused by contentions.

When installing an event in a task context, there's a number of
issues:
- there might not be an existing task context, in which case
we should install the now current context;
- there might already be a context, not the current one, in
which case we should de-schedule the old and install the new;
these cases were dealt with in the lost refresh, however there is one
further case that was found in testing:
- there might already be a context, the current one, in which
case we should still de-schedule, and should take care
to re-install it (note that task_ctx_sched_out() clears
cpuctx->task_ctx).

Mike Travis and Mike Habeck reported an issue where iova allocation

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/29/423
The dmar initialization code will reserve all PCI MMIO regions and copy
those reservations into a domain specific iova tree. It is possible for
one of those regions to be above the dma mask of a device. It is typical
to allocate iovas with a 32bit mask (despite device's dma mask possibly
being larger) and cache the result until it exhausts the lower 32bit
address space. Freeing the iova range that is >= the last iova in the
lower 32bit range when there is still an iova above the 32bit range will
corrupt the cached iova by pointing it to a region that is above 32bit.
If that region is also larger than the device's dma mask, a subsequent
allocation will return an unusable iova and cause dma failure.
Simply don't cache an iova that is above the 32bit caching boundary.

intel-iommu: Enable super page (2MiB, 1GiB, etc.) support
There are no externally-visible changes with this. In the loop in the
internal __domain_mapping() function, we simply detect if we are mapping:
- size >= 2MiB, and
- virtual address aligned to 2MiB, and
- physical address aligned to 2MiB, and
- on hardware that supports superpages.
(and likewise for larger superpages).
We automatically use a superpage for such mappings. We never have to
worry about *breaking* superpages, since we trust that we will always
*unmap* the same range that was mapped. So all we need to do is ensure
that dma_pte_clear_range() will also cope with superpages.
Adjust pfn_to_dma_pte() to take a superpage 'level' as an argument, so
it can return a PTE at the appropriate level rather than always
extending the page tables all the way down to level 1. Again, this is
simplified by the fact that we should never encounter existing small
pages when we're creating a mapping; any old mapping that used the same
virtual range will have been entirely removed and its obsolete page
tables freed.
Provide an 'intel_iommu=sp_off' argument on the command line as a
chicken bit. Not that it should ever be required.

The Apple custom PIC only exist in some earlier machine models,
anything with an MPIC will crash on suspend if we register those
syscore ops unconditionally.
This is a regression caused by commit f5a592f7d74e ("PM / PowerPC: Use
struct syscore_ops instead of sysdevs for PM")

rcu: Cure load woes
Commit cc3ce5176d83 (rcu: Start RCU kthreads in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
state) fudges a sleeping task' state, resulting in the scheduler seeing
a TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE task going to sleep, but a TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
task waking up. The result is unbalanced load calculation.
The problem that patch tried to address is that the RCU threads could
stay in UNINTERRUPTIBLE state for quite a while and triggering the hung
task detector due to on-demand wake-ups.
Cure the problem differently by always giving the tasks at least one
wake-up once the CPU is fully up and running, this will kick them out of
the initial UNINTERRUPTIBLE state and into the regular INTERRUPTIBLE
wait state.
[ The alternative would be teaching kthread_create() to start threads as
INTERRUPTIBLE but that needs a tad more thought. ]

Add an API that tells the other side that callbacks
should be delayed until a lot of work has been done.
Implement using the new event_idx feature.
Note: it might seem advantageous to let the drivers
ask for a callback after a specific capacity has
been reached. However, as a single head can
free many entries in the descriptor table,
we don't really have a clue about capacity
until get_buf is called. The API is the simplest
to implement at the moment, we'll see what kind of
hints drivers can pass when there's more than one
user of the feature.

Support for the new event idx feature:
1. When enabling interrupts, publish the current avail index
value to the host to get interrupts on the next update.
2. Use the new avail_event feature to reduce the number
of exits from the guest.
Simple test with the simulator:
[virtio]# time ./virtio_test
spurious wakeus: 0x7
real 0m0.169s
user 0m0.140s
sys 0m0.019s
[virtio]# time ./virtio_test --no-event-idx

With the new used_event and avail_event and features, both
host and guest need similar logic to check whether events are
enabled, so it helps to put the common code in the header.
Note that Xen has similar logic for notification hold-off
in include/xen/interface/io/ring.h with req_event and req_prod
corresponding to event_idx + 1 and new_idx respectively.
+1 comes from the fact that req_event and req_prod in Xen start at 1,
while event index in virtio starts at 0.

virtio balloon: kill tell-host-first logic
The virtio balloon driver has a VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST
feature bit. Whenever the bit is set, the guest kernel must
always tell the host before we free pages back to the allocator.
Without this feature, we might free a page (and have another
user touch it) while the hypervisor is unprepared for it.
But, if the bit is _not_ set, we are under no obligation to
reverse the order; we're under no obligation to do _anything_.
As of now, qemu-kvm defines the bit, but doesn't set it.
This patch makes the "tell host first" logic the only case. This
should make everybody happy, and reduce the amount of untested or
untestable code in the kernel.
This _also_ means that we don't have to preserve a pfn list
after the pages are freed, which should let us get rid of some
temporary storage (vb->pfns) eventually.

pnfs-obj: report errors and .encode_layoutreturn Implementation.
An io_state pre-allocates an error information structure for each
possible osd-device that might error during IO. When IO is done if all
was well the io_state is freed. (as today). If the I/O has ended with an
error, the io_state is queued on a per-layout err_list. When eventually
encode_layoutreturn() is called, each error is properly encoded on the
XDR buffer and only then the io_state is removed from err_list and
de-allocated.
It is up to the io_engine to fill in the segment that fault and the type
of osd_error that occurred. By calling objlayout_io_set_result() for
each failing device.
In objio_osd:
* Allocate io-error descriptors space as part of io_state
* Use generic objlayout error reporting at end of io.
With the objects layout security model, we have object capabilities
that are associated with the layout and we anticipate that the server
will issue a cb_layoutrecall for any setattr that changes security
related attributes (user/group/mode/acl) or truncates the file.
Therefore, the layout is returned before issuing the setattr to avoid
the anticipated cb_layoutrecall.
