* powerpc: Create PPC_WARN_ALIGNMENT to match PPC_WARN_EMULATEDAnton Blanchard2009-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | perf_event wants a separate event for alignment and emulation faults, so create another emulation event. This will make it easy to hook in perf_event at one spot. We pass in regs which will be required for these events. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* perf_event: Add alignment-faults and emulation-faults software eventsAnton Blanchard2009-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add two more software events that are common to many cpus. Alignment faults: When a load or store is not aligned properly. Emulation faults: When an instruction is emulated in software. Both cause a very significant slowdown (100x or worse), so identifying and fixing them is very important.

* powerpc: perf_event: Enable SDAR in continous sample modeAnton Blanchard2009-10-28
| | | | | | | | | In continuous sampling mode we want the SDAR to update. While we can select between dcache misses and ERAT (L1-TLB) misses, a decent default is to enable both. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* powerpc: perf_event: Log invalid data addresses as all 1sAnton Blanchard2009-10-28
| | | | | | | | | When we take an exception and the SDAR isn't synchronised we currently log 0 as the address. Unfortunately this is a pretty common value, so use ~0UL instead. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

| * firewire: sbp2: provide fallback if mgt_ORB_timeout is missingStefan Richter2009-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Unit_Characteristics entry of an SBP-2 unit directory is not mandatory as far as I can tell. If it is missing, we would probably fail to log in into the target because firewire-sbp2 would not wait for status after it sent the login request. The fix moves the cleanup of tgt->mgt_orb_timeout into a place where it is executed exactly once before login, rather than 0..n times depending on the target's config ROM. With targets with one or more Unit_Characteristics entries, the result is the same as before. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

If flush_dcache_page() occurs on a swapin it will have a mapping and we'll try to defer the flush by setting the dirty bit. But when it hits update_dcache_page() we won't flush because the page won't have a mapping any more. So remove the mapping requirement in flush_dcache(). Signed-off-by: David S.

It can happen that we fetch a request, but do not process it further because the number of queued requests exceeds TAPEBLOCK_MIN_REQUEUE. To fix this, we should call blk_peek_request() instead of blk_fetch_request() in the while condition and fetch the request in the loop body afterwards.

This kills off the mapping test in update_mmu_cache() and switches to simply testing for PG_dcache_dirty.

This could lead to kernel panic as some CPUs may be operating on the event buffer AFTER it has been freed. The attached patch solves the problem and makes sure CPUs check if the buffer is not NULL before they access it as some may have been spinning on the mutex while the buffer was being freed. The race may happen if the buffer is freed during pending reads. But it is not clear why there are races in add_event_entry() since all workqueues or handlers are canceled or flushed before the event buffer is freed.

The reason is that we dont pass in the -m32 and GCC defaults to -m64. So pass it in - and also extend the warning message about libelf dependencies - glibc-dev[el] is needed as well beyond the libelf library.

The real bug producing LatencyTop latencies has been fixed in: f5dc375: sched: Update the clock of runqueue select_task_rq() selected And the commit being reverted here triggers local timer processing from every device IRQ. If device IRQs come in at a high frequency, this could cause a performance regression. The commit being reverted here purely 'fixed' the reported latency as a side effect, because CPUs were being moved out of idle more often.
