A recent commit introduced a preemption warning for
perf_clock(), use raw_smp_processor_id() to avoid this, it
really doesn't matter which cpu we use here.

Since the cpu argument to hw_perf_group_sched_in() is always
smp_processor_id(), simplify the code a little by removing this argument
and using the current cpu where needed.

This patch adds correct AMD NorthBridge event scheduling.
NB events are events measuring L3 cache, Hypertransport traffic. They are
identified by an event code >= 0xe0. They measure events on the
Northbride which is shared by all cores on a package. NB events are
counted on a shared set of counters. When a NB event is programmed in a
counter, the data actually comes from a shared counter. Thus, access to
those counters needs to be synchronized.
We implement the synchronization such that no two cores can be measuring
NB events using the same counters. Thus, we maintain a per-NB allocation
table. The available slot is propagated using the event_constraint
structure.

In certain situations, the kernel may need to stop and start the same
event rapidly. The current PMU callbacks do not distinguish between stop
and release (i.e., stop + free the resource). Thus, a counter may be
released, then it will be immediately re-acquired. Event scheduling will
again take place with no guarantee to assign the same counter. On some
processors, this may event yield to failure to assign the event back due
to competion between cores.
This patch is adding a new pair of callback to stop and restart a counter
without actually release the underlying counter resource. On stop, the
counter is stopped, its values saved and that's it. On start, the value
is reloaded and counter is restarted (on x86, actual restart is delayed
until perf_enable()).

DaveM reported that currently perf interprets the pgoff value reported by
the MMAP events as a byte range, but the kernel reports it as a page
offset.
Since its broken (and unusable) anyway, change the kernel behaviour (ABI)
to report bytes indeed, avoiding the need for userspace to deal with
PAGE_SIZE things.

Commit 22e19085 ("Honour event state for aux stream data")
introduced a bug where we would drop FORK events.
The thing is that we deliver FORK events to the child process'
event, which at that time will be PERF_EVENT_STATE_INACTIVE
because the child won't be scheduled in (we're in the middle of
fork).
Solve this twice, change the event state filter to exclude only
disabled (STATE_OFF) or worse, and deliver FORK events to the
current (parent).

Change 'bp_len' type to __u64 to make it work across archs as
the s390 architecture watch point length can be upto 2^64.

http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/25/212
This is an ABI change that is not backward compatible with
the previous hardware breakpoint info layout integrated in this
development cycle, a rebuilt of perf tools is necessary for
versions based on 2.6.33-rc1 - 2.6.33-rc6 to work with a

One problem with frequency driven counters is that we cannot
predict the rate at which they trigger, therefore we have to
start them at period=1, this causes a ramp up effect. However,
if we fail to propagate the stable state on fork each new child
will have to ramp up again. This can lead to significant
artifacts in sample data.

There was a bug in the old period code that caused intel_pmu_enable_all()
or native_write_msr_safe() to show up quite high in the profiles.
In staring at that code it made my head hurt, so I rewrote it in a
hopefully simpler fashion. Its now fully symetric between tick and
overflow driven adjustments and uses less data to boot.
The only complication is that it basically wants to do a u128 division.
The code approximates that in a rather simple truncate until it fits
fashion, taking care to balance the terms while truncating.
This version does not generate that sampling artefact.

When a task gets scheduled in. We don't touch the cpu bound events
so the priority order becomes:
cpu pinned, cpu flexible, task pinned, task flexible.
So schedule out cpu flexibles when a new task context gets in
and correctly order the groups to schedule in:
task pinned, cpu flexible, task flexible.
Cpu pinned groups don't need to be touched at this time.

And while at it, refactor a bit the naming of these helpers to make
these more consistent and flexible.

Before scheduling an event group, we first check if a group can go
on. We first check if the group is made of software only events
first, in which case it is enough to know if the group can be
scheduled in.
For that purpose, we iterate through the whole group, which is
wasteful as we could do this check when we add/delete an event to
a group.
So we create a group_flags field in perf event that can host
characteristics from a group of events, starting with a first
PERF_GROUP_SOFTWARE flag that reduces the check on the fast path.

Split-up struct perf_event_context::group_list into pinned_groups
and flexible_groups (non-pinned).
This first appears to be useless as it duplicates various loops around
the group list handlings.
But it scales better in the fast-path in perf_sched_in(). We don't
anymore iterate twice through the entire list to separate pinned and
non-pinned scheduling. Instead we interate through two distinct lists.
The another desired effect is that it makes easier to define distinct
scheduling rules on both.
Changes in v2:
- Respectively rename pinned_grp_list and
volatile_grp_list into pinned_groups and flexible_groups as per
Ingo suggestion.
- Various cleanups

Liming found a NULL deref when a task has a perf context but no
counters when it forks.
This can occur in two cases, a race during construction where
the fork hits after installing the context but before the first
counter gets inserted, or more reproducably, a fork after the
last counter is closed (which leaves the context around).

Quoted from Ingo:

| it's an unnecessary Kconfig complication. If both PERF_EVENTS and
| EVENT_TRACING is enabled we should expose generic tracepoints.

| Nor is it limited to event 'profiling', so it has become a misnomer as

It seems a couple places such as arch/ia64/kernel/perfmon.c and
drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c could use anon_inode_getfile()
instead of a private pseudo-fs + alloc_file(), if only there were a way
to get a read-only file. So provide this by having anon_inode_getfile()
create a read-only file if we pass O_RDONLY in flags.

In order to allow for per-task-per-cpu counters, useful for
scalability when profiling task hierarchies, we allow installing
events with event->cpu != -1 in task contexts.
__perf_event_sched_in() already skips events where ->cpu
mis-matches the current cpu, fix up __perf_install_in_context()
and __perf_event_enable() to also respect this filter.
This does lead to vary hard to interpret enabled/running times
for such counters, but I don't see a simple solution for that.

It is quite legitimate for CPUs to be numbered sparsely, meaning
that it possible for an online CPU to have a number which is
greater than the total count of possible CPUs.
Currently find_get_context() has a sanity check on the cpu
number where it checks it against num_possible_cpus(). This
test can fail for a legitimate cpu number if the
cpu_possible_mask is sparsely populated.
This fixes the problem by checking the CPU number against
nr_cpumask_bits instead, since that is the appropriate check to
ensure that the cpu number is same to pass to cpu_isset()
subsequently.

Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling
it, changing its address, type or len, it calls
modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and
racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new
one.
This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint
slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only
supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging
workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle.
So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just
disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it
after if necessary.

struct perf_event::event callback was called when a breakpoint
triggers. But this is a rather opaque callback, pretty
tied-only to the breakpoint API and not really integrated into perf
as it triggers even when we don't overflow.
We prefer to use overflow_handler() as it fits into the perf events
rules, being called only when we overflow.

In the CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC case, perf_mmap_data_free() only
schedules the cleanup of the perf_mmap_data struct. In that
case we have to wait until the work has been done before we free
data.

When a pinned group cannot be scheduled it goes into error state.
Normally a group cannot go out of error state without being
explicitly re-enabled or disabled. There was a bug in per-thread
mode, whereby upon termination of the thread, the group would
transition from error to off leading to bogus counts and timing
information returned by read().
Fix it by clearing the error state.

In fail case, perf_event_create_kernel_counter() returns NULL
instead of an error, which doesn't help us to inform the user
about the origin of the problem from the outer most callers.
Often we can just return -EINVAL, which doesn't help anyone when
it's eventually about a memory allocation failure.
Then, this patch makes perf_event_create_kernel_counter() always
return a detailed error code.

Commit 4ed7c92d68a5387ba5f7030dc76eab03558e27f5
(perf_events: Undo some recursion damage) has introduced a bad
reference counting of the recursion context. putting the context
behaves like getting it, dropping every software/trace events
after the first one in a context.
