c94aa5ca30 lockdep: Print the shortest dependency chain if finding a circle
Currently lockdep will print the 1st circle detected if it
exists when acquiring a new (next) lock.

This patch prints the shortest path from the next lock to be
acquired to the previous held lock if a circle is found.

The patch still uses the current method to check circle, and
once the circle is found, breadth-first search algorithem is
used to compute the shortest path from the next lock to the
previous lock in the forward lock dependency graph.

Printing the shortest path will shorten the dependency chain,
and make troubleshooting for possible circular locking easier.

8650ae32ef tracing: only truncate ftrace files when O_TRUNC is set
The current code will truncate the ftrace files contents if O_APPEND
is not set and the file is opened in write mode. This is incorrect.
It should only truncate the file if O_TRUNC is set. Otherwise
if one of these files is opened by a C program with fopen "r+",
it will incorrectly truncate the file.

4c739ff043 tracing: show proper address for trace-printk format
Since the trace_printk may use pointers to the format fields
in the buffer, they are exported via debugfs/tracing/printk_formats.
This is used by utilities that read the ring buffer in binary format.
It helps the utilities map the address of the format in the binary
buffer to what the printf format looks like.

Unfortunately, the way the output code works, it exports the address
of the pointer to the format address, and not the format address
itself. This makes the file totally useless in trying to figure
out what format string a binary address belongs to.

7f453c24b9 perf_counter: PERF_SAMPLE_ID and inherited counters
Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by
PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID
because each inherited counter gets its own id.

His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that
is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited
counters have a unique identifier so that events like
PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which
counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the
sample streams.

This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD,
which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more
common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less
useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate
value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow,
whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed,
which might only take effect on the next cycle).

This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that
_should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the
most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a
PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full
reconstruction is important.

[Does change the ABI a little, but I see no other way out]

commit ca109491f (hrtimer: removing all ur callback modes) moved all
hrtimer callbacks into hard interrupt context when high resolution
timers are active. That breaks code which relied on the assumption
that the callback happens in softirq context.

Provide a generic infrastructure which combines tasklets and hrtimers
together to provide an in-softirq hrtimer experience.

86886e55b2 x86, intel_txt: Intel TXT Sx shutdown support
Support for graceful handling of sleep states (S3/S4/S5) after an Intel(R) TXT launch.

Without this patch, attempting to place the system in one of the ACPI sleep
states (S3/S4/S5) will cause the TXT hardware to treat this as an attack and
will cause a system reset, with memory locked.  Not only may the subsequent
memory scrub take some time, but the platform will be unable to enter the
requested power state.

This patch calls back into the tboot so that it may properly and securely clean
up system state and clear the secrets-in-memory flag, after which it will place
the system into the requested sleep state using ACPI information passed by the kernel.

591d2fb02e genirq: Delegate irq affinity setting to the irq thread
irq_set_thread_affinity() calls set_cpus_allowed_ptr() which might
sleep, but irq_set_thread_affinity() is called with desc->lock held
and can be called from hard interrupt context as well. The code has
another bug as it does not hold a ref on the task struct as required
by set_cpus_allowed_ptr().

Just set the IRQTF_AFFINITY bit in action->thread_flags. The next time
the thread runs it migrates itself. Solves all of the above problems
nicely.

1f9963cbb0 tracing/filters: improve subsystem filter
Currently a subsystem filter should be applicable to all events
under the subsystem, and if it failed, all the event filters
will be cleared. Those behaviors make subsys filter much less
useful:

  # echo 'vec == 1' > irq/softirq_entry/filter
  # echo 'irq == 5' > irq/filter
  bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
  # cat irq/softirq_entry/filter
  none

I'd expect it set the filter for irq_handler_entry/exit, and
not touch softirq_entry/exit.

The basic idea is, try to see if the filter can be applied
to which events, and then just apply to the those events:

  # echo 'vec == 1' > softirq_entry/filter
  # echo 'irq == 5' > filter
  # cat irq_handler_entry/filter
  irq == 5
  # cat softirq_entry/filter
  vec == 1

Changelog for v2:
- do some cleanups to address Frederic's comments.

7d536cb3fb tracing/events: record the size of dynamic arrays
When a dynamic array is defined, we add __data_loc_foo in
trace_entry to record the offset of the array, but the
size of the array is not recorded, which causes 2 problems:

- the event filter just compares the first 2 chars of the strings.

- parsers can't parse dynamic arrays.

So we encode the size of each dynamic array in the higher 16 bits
of __data_loc_foo, while the offset is in lower 16 bits.

613afbf832 sched: Pull up the might_sleep() check into cond_resched()
might_sleep() is called late-ish in cond_resched(), after the
need_resched()/preempt enabled/system running tests are
checked.

It's better to check the sleeps while atomic earlier and not
depend on some environment datas that reduce the chances to
detect a problem.

Also define cond_resched_*() helpers as macros, so that the
FILE/LINE reported in the sleeping while atomic warning
displays the real origin and not sched.h

Changes in v2:

 - Call __might_sleep() directly instead of might_sleep() which
   may call cond_resched()

 - Turn cond_resched() into a macro so that the file:line
   couple reported refers to the caller of cond_resched() and
   not __cond_resched() itself.

Changes in v3:

 - Also propagate this __might_sleep() pull up to
   cond_resched_lock() and cond_resched_softirq()

e7aaaa6934 sched: Drop the need_resched() loop from cond_resched()
The schedule() function is a loop that reschedules the current
task while the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag is set:

void schedule(void)
{
need_resched:
	/* schedule code */
	if (need_resched())
		goto need_resched;
}

And cond_resched() repeat this loop:

do {
	add_preempt_count(PREEMPT_ACTIVE);
	schedule();
	sub_preempt_count(PREEMPT_ACTIVE);
} while(need_resched());

This loop is needless because schedule() already did the check
and nothing can set TIF_NEED_RESCHED between schedule() exit
and the loop check in need_resched().

Then remove this needless loop.

6301cb95c1 sched: fix nr_uninterruptible accounting of frozen tasks really
commit e3c8ca8336 (sched: do not count frozen tasks toward load) broke
the nr_uninterruptible accounting on freeze/thaw. On freeze the task
is excluded from accounting with a check for (task->flags &
PF_FROZEN), but that flag is cleared before the task is thawed. So
while we prevent that the task with state TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
is accounted to nr_uninterruptible on freeze we decrement
nr_uninterruptible on thaw.

Use a separate flag which is handled by the freezing task itself. Set
it before calling the scheduler with TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state and
clear it after we return from frozen state.

a468d38934 sched: fix load average accounting vs. cpu hotplug
The new load average code clears rq->calc_load_active on
CPU_ONLINE. That's wrong as the new onlined CPU might have got a
scheduler tick already and accounted the delta to the stale value of
the time we offlined the CPU.

Clear the value when we cleanup the dead CPU instead. 

Also move the update of the calc_load_update time for the newly online
CPU to CPU_UP_PREPARE to avoid that the CPU plays catch up with the
stale update time value.

e5d490b252 profile: Suppress warning about large allocations when profile=1 is specified
When profile= is used, a large buffer is allocated early at
boot. This can be larger than what the page allocator can
provide so it prints a warning. However, the caller is able to
handle the situation so this patch suppresses the warning.

ed900c054b perf_counter: Log vfork as a fork event
Right now we don't output vfork events. Even though we should
always see an exec after a vfork, we may get perfcounter
samples between the vfork and exec. These samples can lead to
some confusion when parsing perfcounter data.

To keep things consistent we should always log a fork event. It
will result in a little more log data, but is less confusing to
trace parsing tools.

413ee3b48a perf_counter: Make sure we dont leak kernel memory to userspace
There are a few places we are leaking tiny amounts of kernel
memory to userspace. This happens when writing out strings
because we always align the end to 64 bits.

To avoid this we should always use an appropriately sized
temporary buffer and ensure it is zeroed.

Since d_path assembles the string from the end of the buffer
backwards, we need to add 64 bits after the buffer to allow for
alignment.

We also need to copy arch_vma_name to the temporary buffer,
because if we use it directly we may end up copying to
userspace a number of bytes after the end of the string
constant.
