2010-05-09perf: Fix perf lock bad rateFrederic Weisbecker
Fix the cast made to get the bad rate. It is made in the result instead of the operands. We need the operands to be cast in double, otherwise the result will always be zero.

2010-05-09perf lock: Add "info" subcommand for dumping misc informationHitoshi Mitake
This adds the "info" subcommand to perf lock which can be used to dump metadata like threads or addresses of lock instances. "map" was removed because info should do the work for it.

2010-05-09perf: Provide a new deterministic events reordering algorithmFrederic Weisbecker
The current events reordering algorithm is based on a heuristic that gets broken once we deal with a very fast flow of events. Indeed the time period based flushing is not suitable anymore in the following case, assuming we have a flush period of two seconds. CPU 0 | CPU 1 | cnt1 timestamps | cnt1 timestamps | 0 | 0 1 | 1 2 | 2 3 | 3 [...] | [...] 4 seconds later If we spend too much time to read the buffers (case of a lot of events to record in each buffers or when we have a lot of CPU buffers to read), in the next pass the CPU 0 buffer could contain a slice of several seconds of events. We'll read them all and notice we've reached the period to flush. In the above example we flush the first half of the CPU 0 buffer, then we read the CPU 1 buffer where we have events that were on the flush slice and then the reordering fails. It's simple to reproduce with: perf lock record perf bench sched messaging To solve this, we use a new solution that doesn't rely on an heuristical time slice period anymore but on a deterministic basis based on how perf record does its job. perf record saves the buffers through passes. A pass is a tour on every buffers from every CPUs. This is made in order: for each CPU we read the buffers of every counters. So the more buffers we visit, the later will be the timstamps of their events. When perf record finishes a pass it records a PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo event. We record the max timestamp t found in the pass n. Assuming these timestamps are monotonic across cpus, we know that if a buffer still has events with timestamps below t, they will be all available and then read in the pass n + 1. Hence when we start to read the pass n + 2, we can safely flush every events with timestamps below t. ============ PASS n ================= CPU 0 | CPU 1 | cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps 1 | 2 2 | 3 - | 4 <--- max recorded ============ PASS n + 1 ============== CPU 0 | CPU 1 | cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps 3 | 5 4 | 6 5 | 7 <---- max recorded Flush every events below timestamp 4 ============ PASS n + 2 ============== CPU 0 | CPU 1 | cnt1 timestamps | cnt2 timestamps 6 | 8 7 | 9 - | 10 Flush every events below timestamp 7 etc... It also works on perf.data versions that don't have PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND pseudo events. The difference is that the events will be only flushed in the end of the perf.data processing. It will then consume more memory and scale less with large perf.data files.

2010-05-09perf: Introduce a new "round of buffers read" pseudo eventFrederic Weisbecker

So use get_cpu/put_cpu pair. Also p4_pmu_schedule_events should use smp_processor_id rather than raw_ version. This allow us to catch up preemption issue (if there will ever be).

2010-05-08perf_event: Make software events work againPaul Mackerras
Commit 6bde9b6ce0127e2a56228a2071536d422be31336 ("perf: Add group scheduling transactional APIs") added code to allow a group to be scheduled in a single transaction. However, it introduced a bug in handling events whose pmu does not implement transactions -- at the end of scheduling in the events in the group, in the non-transactional case the code now falls through to the group_error label, and proceeds to unschedule all the events in the group and return failure. This fixes it by returning 0 (success) in the non-transactional case.

Clean up the hypervisor layer and the hypervisor drivers, using an ops structure instead of an enumeration with if statements. The identity of the hypervisor, if needed, can be tested by testing the pointer value in x86_hyper. The MS-HyperV private state is moved into a normal global variable (it's per-system state, not per-CPU state). Being a normal bss variable, it will be left at all zero on non-HyperV platforms, and so can generally be tested for HyperV-specific features without additional qualification. Signed-off-by: H.

Then we start that process, but the AP doesn't respond. While we're still waiting for an AP response, userspace asks for a deauth. We do the deauth, but don't abort the association work. Then once the association work times out we tell cfg80211, but it no longer wants to know since for all it is concerned we accepted the deauth that also kills the association attempt. Fix this by, upon receipt of deauth request, removing the association work and continuing to send the deauth. Unfortunately the user reporting the issue is not able to reproduce this problem anymore and cannot verify this fix. This seems like a well understood issue though and I thus present the patch.

2010-05-07md: restore ability of spare drives to spin down.NeilBrown
Some time ago we stopped the clean/active metadata updates from being written to a 'spare' device in most cases so that it could spin down and say spun down. Device failure/removal etc are still recorded on spares. However commit 51d5668cb2e3fd1827a55 broke this 50% of the time, depending on whether the event count is even or odd. The change log entry said: This means that the alignment between 'odd/even' and 'clean/dirty' might take a little longer to attain, how ever the code makes no attempt to create that alignment, so it could take arbitrarily long. So when we find that clean/dirty is not aligned with odd/even, force a second metadata-update immediately. There are already cases where a second metadata-update is needed immediately (e.g. when a device fails during the metadata update). We just piggy-back on that.
