Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.20-20181025' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: - Introduce 'perf trace --max-events' for stopping 'perf trace' when that many syscalls (enter+exit), tracepoints or other events such as page faults take place. Support that as well on a per-event basis, e.g.: perf trace -e sched:*switch/nr=2/,block:*_plug/nr=4/,block:*_unplug/nr=1/,net:*dev_queue/nr=3,max-stack=16/ Will stop when 2 context switches, 4 block plugs, 1 block unplug and 3 net_dev_queue tracepoints take place. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Poll for monitored tasks being alive in 'perf stat -p/-t', exiting when those tasks all terminate (Jiri Olsa) - Encode -k clockid frequency into perf.data to enable timestamps derived metrics conversion into wall clock time on reporting stage. (Alexey Budankov) - Improve Intel PT call graph from SQL database and GUI python scripts, including adopting the Qt MDI interface to allow for multiple subwindows for all the tables, helping in better visualizing the data in the SQL tables, also uses, when available, the Intel XED disassembler libraries to present the Intel PT data as x86 asm mnemonics. This last feature is not currently working in some cases, fix is being discussed (Adrian Hunter) - Implement a ftrace function_graph view in 'perf script' when processing hardware trace data such as Intel PT (Andi Kleen) - Better integration with the Intel XED disassembler, when available, in 'perf script' (Andi Kleen) - Some 'perf trace' drop refcount fixes (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Add Sparc support to 'perf annotate', jitdump (David Miller) - Fix PLT symbols entry/header sizes properly on Sparc (David Miller) - Fix generation of system call table failure with /tmp mounted with 'noexec' in arm64 (Hongxu Jia) - Allow extended console debug output in 'perf script' (Milian Wolff) - Flush output stream after events in 'perf script' verbose mode (Milian Wolff) Signed-off-by:

By default 'perf script' for itrace outputs sampled instructions or branches. In my experience this is confusing to users because it's hard to correlate with real program behavior. The sampling makes sense for tools like 'perf report' that actually sample to reduce the run time, but run time is normally not a problem for 'perf script'. It's better to give an accurate representation of the program flow. Default 'perf script' to output all calls for itrace. That's a much saner default. The old behavior can be still requested with 'perf script' --itrace=ibxwpe100000 v2: Fix ETM build failure v3: Really fix ETM build failure (Kim Phillips) Signed-off-by:

Add a report to display branches in a similar fashion to perf script. The main purpose of this report is to display disassembly, however, presently, the only supported disassembler is Intel XED, and additionally the object code must be present in perf build ID cache. To use Intel XED, libxed.so must be present.

Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest change in this cycle is the conclusion of the big 'simplify RCU to two primary flavors' consolidation work - i.e. there's a single RCU flavor for any kernel variant (PREEMPT and !PREEMPT): - Consolidate the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors into a single flavor similar to RCU-sched in !PREEMPT kernels and into a single flavor similar to RCU-preempt (but also waiting on preempt-disabled sequences of code) in PREEMPT kernels. This branch also includes a refactoring of rcu_{nmi,irq}_{enter,exit}() from Byungchul Park. - Now that there is only one RCU flavor in any given running kernel, the many "rsp" pointers are no longer required, and this cleanup series removes them. - This branch carries out additional cleanups made possible by the RCU flavor consolidation, including inlining now-trivial functions, updating comments and definitions, and removing now-unneeded rcutorture scenarios. - Now that there is only one flavor of RCU in any running kernel, there is also only on rcu_data structure per CPU. This means that the rcu_dynticks structure can be merged into the rcu_data structure, a task taken on by this branch. This branch also contains a -rt-related fix from Mike Galbraith. There were also other updates: - Documentation updates, including some good-eye catches from Joel Fernandes. - SRCU updates, most notably changes enabling call_srcu() to be invoked very early in the boot sequence. - Torture-test updates, including some preliminary work towards making rcutorture better able to find problems that result in insufficient grace-period forward progress. - Initial changes to RCU to better promote forward progress of grace periods, including fixing a bug found by Marius Hillenbrand and David Woodhouse, with the fix suggested by Peter Zijlstra" * 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (140 commits) srcu: Make early-boot call_srcu() reuse workqueue lists rcutorture: Test early boot call_srcu() srcu: Make call_srcu() available during very early boot rcu: Convert rcu_state.ofl_lock to raw_spinlock_t rcu: Remove obsolete ->dynticks_fqs and ->cond_resched_completed rcu: Switch ->dynticks to rcu_data structure, remove rcu_dynticks rcu: Switch dyntick nesting counters to rcu_data structure rcu: Switch urgent quiescent-state requests to rcu_data structure rcu: Switch lazy counts to rcu_data structure rcu: Switch last accelerate/advance to rcu_data structure rcu: Switch ->tick_nohz_enabled_snap to rcu_data structure rcu: Merge rcu_dynticks structure into rcu_data structure rcu: Remove unused rcu_dynticks_snap() from Tiny RCU rcu: Convert "1UL << x" to "BIT(x)" rcu: Avoid resched_cpu() when rescheduling the current CPU rcu: More aggressively enlist scheduler aid for nohz_full CPUs rcu: Compute jiffies_till_sched_qs from other kernel parameters rcu: Provide functions for determining if call_rcu() has been invoked rcu: Eliminate ->rcu_qs_ctr from the rcu_dynticks structure rcu: Motivate Tiny RCU forward progress ...
