With trace events set before and after the initcall function calls, instead
of having a separate routine for printing out the initcalls when
initcall_debug is specified on the kernel command line, have the code
register a callback to the tracepoints where the initcall trace events are.
This removes the need for having a separate function to do the initcalls as
the tracepoint callbacks can handle the printk. It also includes other
initcalls that are not called by the do_one_initcall() which includes
console and security initcalls.

Being able to trace the start and stop of initcalls is useful to see where
the timings are an issue. There is already an "initcall_debug" parameter,

ring-buffer: Check if memory is available before allocation
The ring buffer is made up of a link list of pages. When making the ring
buffer bigger, it will allocate all the pages it needs before adding to the
ring buffer, and if it fails, it frees them and returns an error. This makes
increasing the ring buffer size an all or nothing action. When this was
first created, the pages were allocated with "NORETRY". This was to not
cause any Out-Of-Memory (OOM) actions from allocating the ring buffer. But
NORETRY was too strict, as the ring buffer would fail to expand even when
there's memory available, but was taken up in the page cache.
Commit
848618857d253 ("tracing/ring_buffer: Try harder to allocate") changed
the allocating from NORETRY to RETRY_MAYFAIL. The RETRY_MAYFAIL would
allocate from the page cache, but if there was no memory available, it would
simple fail the allocation and not trigger an OOM.
This worked fine, but had one problem. As the ring buffer would allocate one
page at a time, it could take up all memory in the system before it failed
to allocate and free that memory. If the allocation is happening and the
ring buffer allocates all memory and then tries to take more than available,
its allocation will not trigger an OOM, but if there's any allocation that
happens someplace else, that could trigger an OOM, even though once the ring
buffer's allocation fails, it would free up all the previous memory it tried
to allocate, and allow other memory allocations to succeed.
Commit
d02bd27bd33dd ("mm/page_alloc.c: calculate 'available' memory in a
separate function") separated out si_mem_availble() as a separate function
that could be used to see how much memory is available in the system. Using
this function to make sure that the ring buffer could be allocated before it
tries to allocate pages we can avoid allocating all memory in the system and
making it vulnerable to OOMs if other allocations are taking place.

sched_wakeup occurs, the timestamp is saved in the entry corresponding
to the current pid, and when the scheduler switches back to that pid,
the timestamp difference is calculated. If the resulting latency

tracing: Add 'onmatch' hist trigger action support
Add an 'onmatch(matching.event).<synthetic_event_name>(param list)'
hist trigger action which is invoked with the set of variables or
event fields named in the 'param list'. The result is the generation
of a synthetic event that consists of the values contained in those
variables and/or fields at the time the invoking event was hit.
As an example the below defines a simple synthetic event using a
variable defined on the sched_wakeup_new event, and shows the event
definition with unresolved fields, since the sched_wakeup_new event
with the testpid variable hasn't been defined yet:
# echo 'wakeup_new_test pid_t pid; int prio' >> \

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
wakeup_new_test pid_t pid; int prio
The following hist trigger both defines a testpid variable and
specifies an onmatch() trace action that uses that variable along with
a non-variable field to generate a wakeup_new_test synthetic event
whenever a sched_wakeup_new event occurs, which because of the 'if
comm == "cyclictest"' filter only happens when the executable is
cyclictest:
# echo 'hist:testpid=pid:keys=$testpid:\

tracing: Add support for 'field variables'
Users should be able to directly specify event fields in hist trigger
'actions' rather than being forced to explicitly create a variable for
that purpose.
Add support allowing fields to be used directly in actions, which
essentially does just that - creates 'invisible' variables for each
bare field specified in an action. If a bare field refers to a field
on another (matching) event, it even creates a special histogram for
the purpose (since variables can't be defined on an existing histogram
after histogram creation).
Here's a simple example that demonstrates both. Basically the
onmatch() action creates a list of variables corresponding to the
parameters of the synthetic event to be generated, and then uses those
values to generate the event. So for the wakeup_latency synthetic
event 'call' below the first param, $wakeup_lat, is a variable defined
explicitly on sched_switch, where 'next_pid' is just a normal field on
sched_switch, and prio is a normal field on sched_waking.
Since the mechanism works on variables, those two normal fields just
have 'invisible' variables created internally for them. In the case of
'prio', which is on another event, we actually need to create an
additional hist trigger and define the invisible variable on that, since
once a hist trigger is defined, variables can't be added to it later.

tracing: Add support for 'synthetic' events
Synthetic events are user-defined events generated from hist trigger
variables saved from one or more other events.
To define a synthetic event, the user writes a simple specification
consisting of the name of the new event along with one or more
variables and their type(s), to the tracing/synthetic_events file.
For instance, the following creates a new event named 'wakeup_latency'
with 3 fields: lat, pid, and prio:
# echo 'wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio' >> \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
Reading the tracing/synthetic_events file lists all the
currently-defined synthetic events, in this case the event we defined
above:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio
At this point, the synthetic event is ready to use, and a histogram
can be defined using it:
# echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio,lat.log2:sort=pid,lat' >> \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency/trigger
The new event is created under the tracing/events/synthetic/ directory
and looks and behaves just like any other event:
# ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency
enable filter format hist id trigger
Although a histogram can be defined for it, nothing will happen until
an action tracing that event via the trace_synth() function occurs.
The trace_synth() function is very similar to all the other trace_*
invocations spread throughout the kernel, except in this case the
trace_ function and its corresponding tracepoint isn't statically
generated but defined by the user at run-time.
How this can be automatically hooked up via a hist trigger 'action' is
discussed in a subsequent patch.

tracing: Add usecs modifier for hist trigger timestamps
Appending .usecs onto a common_timestamp field will cause the
timestamp value to be in microseconds instead of the default
nanoseconds. A typical latency histogram using usecs would look like
this:
# echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs ...
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0 ...
This also adds an external trace_clock_in_ns() to trace.c for the
timestamp conversion.

In order to allow information to be passed between trace events, add
support for per-element variables to tracing_map. This provides a
means for histograms to associate a value or values with an entry when
it's saved or updated, and retrieved by a subsequent event occurrences.
Variables can be set using tracing_map_set_var() and read using
tracing_map_read_var(). tracing_map_var_set() returns true or false
depending on whether or not the variable has been set or not, which is
important for event-matching applications.
tracing_map_read_var_once() reads the variable and resets it to the
'unset' state, implementing read-once variables, which are also
important for event-matching uses.

tracing: Add hist trigger timestamp support
Add support for a timestamp event field. This is actually a 'pseudo-'
event field in that it behaves like it's part of the event record, but
is really part of the corresponding ring buffer event.
To make use of the timestamp field, users can specify
"common_timestamp" as a field name for any histogram. Note that this
doesn't make much sense on its own either as either a key or value,
but needs to be supported even so, since follow-on patches will add
support for making use of this field in time deltas. The
common_timestamp 'field' is not a bona fide event field - so you won't
find it in the event description - but rather it's a synthetic field
that can be used like a real field.
Note that the use of this field requires the ring buffer be put into
'absolute timestamp' mode, which saves the complete timestamp for each
event rather than an offset. This mode will be enabled if and only if
a histogram makes use of the "common_timestamp" field.

ring-buffer: Redefine the unimplemented RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP
RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP is defined but not used, and from what I can
gather was reserved for something like an absolute timestamp feature
for the ring buffer, if not a complete replacement of the current
time_delta scheme.
This code redefines RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP to implement absolute time
stamps. Another way to look at it is that it essentially forces
extended time_deltas for all events.
The motivation for doing this is to enable time_deltas that aren't
dependent on previous events in the ring buffer, making it feasible to
use the ring_buffer_event timetamps in a more random-access way, for
purposes other than serial event printing.
To set/reset this mode, use tracing_set_timestamp_abs() from the
previous interface patch.

tracing: Add support to detect and avoid duplicates
A duplicate in the tracing_map hash table is when 2 different entries
have the same key and, as a result, the key_hash. This is possible due
to a race condition in the algorithm. This race condition is inherent to
the algorithm and not a bug. This was fine because, until now, we were
only interested in the sum of all the values related to a particular
key (the duplicates are dealt with in tracing_map_sort_entries()). But,
with the inclusion of variables[1], we are interested in individual
values. So, it will not be clear what value to choose when
there are duplicates. So, the duplicates need to be removed.
The duplicates can occur in the code in the following scenarios:
- A thread is in the process of adding a new element. It has
successfully executed cmpxchg() and inserted the key. But, it is still
not done acquiring the trace_map_elt struct, populating it and storing
the pointer to the struct in the value field of tracing_map hash table.
If another thread comes in at this time and wants to add an element with
the same key, it will not see the current element and add a new one.
- There are multiple threads trying to execute cmpxchg at the same time,
one of the threads will succeed and the others will fail. The ones which
fail will go ahead increment 'idx' and add a new element there creating
a duplicate.
This patch detects and avoids the first condition by asking the thread
which detects the duplicate to loop one more time. There is also a
possibility of infinite loop if the thread which is trying to insert
goes to sleep indefinitely and the one which is trying to insert a new
element detects a duplicate. Which is why, the thread loops for
map_size iterations before returning NULL.
The second scenario is avoided by preventing the threads which failed
cmpxchg() from incrementing idx. This way, they will loop
around and check if the thread which succeeded in executing cmpxchg()
had the same key.

libnvdimm: re-enable deep flush for pmem devices via fsync()
Re-enable deep flush so that users always have a way to be sure that a
write makes it all the way out to media. Writes from the PMEM driver
always arrive at the NVDIMM since movnt is used to bypass the cache, and
the driver relies on the ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) mechanism to
flush write buffers on power failure. The Deep Flush mechanism is there
to explicitly write buffers to protect against (rare) ADR failure. This
change prevents a regression in deep flush behavior so that applications
can continue to depend on fsync() as a mechanism to trigger deep flush
in the filesystem-DAX case.

vfio: disable filesystem-dax page pinning
Filesystem-DAX is incompatible with 'longterm' page pinning. Without
page cache indirection a DAX mapping maps filesystem blocks directly.
This means that the filesystem must not modify a file's block map while
any page in a mapping is pinned. In order to prevent the situation of
userspace holding of filesystem operations indefinitely, disallow
'longterm' Filesystem-DAX mappings.
RDMA has the same conflict and the plan there is to add a 'with lease'
mechanism to allow the kernel to notify userspace that the mapping is
being torn down for block-map maintenance. Perhaps something similar can
be put in place for vfio.
Note that xfs and ext4 still report:
"DAX enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk"
...at mount time, and resolving the dax-dma-vs-truncate problem is one
of the last hurdles to remove that designation.

parisc: Fix ordering of cache and TLB flushes
The change to flush_kernel_vmap_range() wasn't sufficient to avoid the
SMP stalls. The problem is some drivers call these routines with
interrupts disabled. Interrupts need to be enabled for flush_tlb_all()
and flush_cache_all() to work. This version adds checks to ensure
interrupts are not disabled before calling routines that need IPI
interrupts. When interrupts are disabled, we now drop into slower code.
The attached change fixes the ordering of cache and TLB flushes in
several cases. When we flush the cache using the existing PTE/TLB
entries, we need to flush the TLB after doing the cache flush. We don't
need to do this when we flush the entire instruction and data caches as
these flushes don't use the existing TLB entries. The same is true for
tmpalias region flushes.
The flush_kernel_vmap_range() and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range()
routines have been updated.
Secondly, we added a new purge_kernel_dcache_range_asm() routine to
pacache.S and use it in invalidate_kernel_vmap_range(). Nominally,
purges are faster than flushes as the cache lines don't have to be
written back to memory.
Hopefully, this is sufficient to resolve the remaining problems due to
cache speculation. So far, testing indicates that this is the case. I
did work up a patch using tmpalias flushes, but there is a performance
hit because we need the physical address for each page, and we also need
to sequence access to the tmpalias flush code. This increases the
probability of stalls.
