* x86, ds: fix buffer alignment in debug store selftestMarkus Metzger2009-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The debug store selftest code uses a stack-allocated buffer, which is not necessarily correctly aligned. For tests using a buffer to hold a single entry, the buffer that is passed to ds_request must already be suitably aligned. Pass a suitably aligned portion of the bigger buffer.

* x86, ds: allow small debug store buffersMarkus Metzger2009-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Check the buffer size more precisely to allow buffers for exactly one element provided the base address is already properly aligned. Add a debug store selftest.

* x86, bts, hw-branch-tracer: add _noirq variants to the debug store interfaceMarkus Metzger2009-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hw-branch-tracer uses debug store functions from an on_each_cpu() context, which is simply wrong since the functions may sleep. Add _noirq variants for most functions, which may be called with interrupts disabled. Separate per-cpu and per-task tracing and allow per-cpu tracing to be controlled from any cpu. Make the hw-branch-tracer use the new debug store interface, synchronize with hotplug cpu event using get/put_online_cpus(), and remove the unnecessary spinlock. Make the ptrace bts and the ds selftest code use the new interface. Defer the ds selftest.
