2009-04-06perf_counter tools: optionally scale counter values in perfstat modePaul Mackerras
Impact: new functionality This adds add an option to the perfstat mode of kerneltop to scale the reported counter values according to the fraction of time that each counter gets to count. This is invoked with the -l option (I used 'l' because s, c, a and e were all taken already.) This uses the new PERF_RECORD_TOTAL_TIME_{ENABLED,RUNNING} read format options. With this, we get output like this: $ ./perfstat -l -e 0:0,0:1,0:2,0:3,0:4,0:5 ./spin Performance counter stats for './spin': 4016072055 CPU cycles (events) (scaled from 66.53%) 2005887318 instructions (events) (scaled from 66.53%) 1762849 cache references (events) (scaled from 66.69%) 165229 cache misses (events) (scaled from 66.85%) 1001298009 branches (events) (scaled from 66.78%) 41566 branch misses (events) (scaled from 66.61%) Wall-clock time elapsed: 2438.227446 msecs This also lets us detect when a counter is zero because the counter never got to go on the CPU at all. In that case we print <not counted> rather than 0.

2009-04-06perf_counter tools: remove glib dependency and fix bugs in kerneltop.cPaul Mackerras
The glib dependency in kerneltop.c is only for a little bit of list manipulation, and I find it inconvenient. This adds a 'next' field to struct source_line, which lets us link them together into a list. The code to do the linking ourselves turns out to be no longer or more difficult than using glib. This also fixes a few other problems: - We need to #include <limits.h> to get PATH_MAX on powerpc. - We need to #include <linux/types.h> rather than have our own definitions of __u64 and __s64; on powerpc the installed headers define them to be unsigned long and long respectively, and if we have our own, different definition here that causes a compile error. - This takes out the x86 setting of errno from -ret in sys_perf_counter_open. My experiments on x86 indicate that the glibc syscall() does this for us already. - We had two CPU migration counters in the default set, which seems unnecessary; I changed one of them to a context switch counter. - In perfstat mode we were printing CPU cycles and instructions as milliseconds, and the cpu clock and task clock counters as events. This fixes that. - In perfstat mode we were still printing a blank line after the first counter, which was a holdover from when a task clock counter was automatically included as the first counter. This removes the blank line. - On a test machine here, parse_symbols() and parse_vmlinux() were taking long enough (almost 0.5 seconds) for the mmap buffer to overflow before we got to the first mmap_read() call, so this moves them before we open all the counters. - The error message if sys_perf_counter_open fails needs to use errno, not -fd[i][counter].

2009-04-04thinkpad-acpi: rework brightness supportHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
Refactor and redesign the brightness control backend... In order to fix bugzilla #11750... Add a new brightness control mode: support direct NVRAM checkpointing of the backlight level (i.e. store directly to NVRAM without the need for UCMS calls), and use that together with the EC-based control. Disallow UCMS+EC, thus avoiding races with the SMM firmware. Switch the models that define HBRV (EC Brightness Value) in the DSDT to the new mode. These are: T40-T43, R50-R52, R50e, R51e, X31-X41. Change the default for all other IBM ThinkPads to UCMS-only. The Lenovo models already default to UCMS-only.

2009-04-04thinkpad-acpi: restrict access to some firmware LEDsHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
Some of the ThinkPad LEDs indicate critical conditions that can cause data loss or cause hardware damage when ignored (e.g. force-ejecting a powered up bay; ignoring a failing battery, or empty battery; force- undocking with the dock buses still active, etc). On almost all ThinkPads, LED access is write-only, and the firmware usually does fire-and-forget signaling on them, so you effectively lose whatever message the firmware was trying to convey to the user when you override the LED state, without any chance to restore it. Restrict access to all LEDs that can convey important alarms, or that could mislead the user into incorrectly operating the hardware. This will make the Lenovo engineers less unhappy about the whole issue. Allow users that really want it to still control all LEDs, it is the unaware user that we have to worry about.

2009-04-04thinkpad-acpi: remove HKEY disable functionalityHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
The HKEY disable functionality basically cripples the entire event model of the ThinkPad firmware and of the thinkpad-acpi driver. Remove this functionality from the driver. HKEY must be enabled at all times while thinkpad-acpi is loaded, and disabled otherwise. For sysfs, according to the sysfs ABI and the thinkpad-acpi sysfs rules of engagement, we will just remove the attributes. This will be done in two stages: disable their function now, after two kernel releases, remove the attributes. For procfs, we call WARN(). If nothing triggers it, I will simply remove the enable/disable commands entirely in the future along with the sysfs attributes. I don't expect much, if any fallout from this. There really isn't any reason to mess with hotkey_enable or with the enable/disable commands to /proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey, and this has been true for years...
