      perf_counter: add PERF_RECORD_CPU · f370e1e2
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      Allow recording the CPU number the event was generated on.

RFC: this leaves a u32 as reserved, should we fill in the
     node_id() there, or leave this open for future extention,
     as userspace can already easily do the cpu->node mapping
     if needed.

      perf_counter: add PERF_RECORD_CONFIG · a85f61ab
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      Much like CONFIG_RECORD_GROUP records the hw_event.config to
identify the values, allow to record this for all counters.

      perf_counter: rework ioctl()s · 3df5edad
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      Corey noticed that ioctl()s on grouped counters didn't work on
the whole group. This extends the ioctl() interface to take a
second argument that is interpreted as a flags field. We then
provide PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP to toggle the behaviour.

Having this flag gives the greatest flexibility, allowing you
to individually enable/disable/reset counters in a group, or
all together.

[ Impact: fix group counter enable/disable semantics ]

      perf_counter: optimize perf_counter_task_tick() · 7fc23a53
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      perf_counter_task_tick() does way too much work to find out
there's nothing to do. Provide an easy short-circuit for the
normal case where there are no counters on the system.

      perf_counter: fix fixed-purpose counter support on v2 Intel-PERFMON · 066d7dea
      Ingo Molnar authored 
      Fixed-purpose counters stopped working in a simple 'perf stat ls' run:

   <not counted>  cache references
   <not counted>  cache misses

Due to:

  ef7b3e09: perf_counter, x86: remove vendor check in fixed_mode_idx()

Which made x86_pmu.num_counters_fixed matter: if it's nonzero, the
fixed-purpose counters are utilized.

But on v2 perfmon this field is not set (despite there being
fixed-purpose PMCs). So add a quirk to set the number of fixed-purpose
counters to at least three.

[ Impact: add quirk for three fixed-purpose counters on certain Intel CPUs ]

      perf_counter: convert perf_resource_mutex to a spinlock · 1dce8d99
      Ingo Molnar authored 
      Now percpu counters can be initialized very early. But the init
sequence uses mutex_lock(). Fortunately, perf_resource_mutex should
be a spinlock anyway, so convert it.

      perf_counter: initialize the per-cpu context earlier · 0d905bca
      Ingo Molnar authored 
      percpu scheduling for perfcounters wants to take the context lock,
but that lock first needs to be initialized. Currently it is an
early_initcall() - but that is too late, the task tick runs much
sooner than that.

Call it explicitly from the scheduler init sequence instead.

      perf_counter: x86: fixup nmi_watchdog vs perf_counter boo-boo · ba77813a
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      Invert the atomic_inc_not_zero() test so that we will indeed detect the
first activation.

Also rename the global num_counters, since its easy to confuse with
x86_pmu.num_counters.

      perf_counter: round-robin per-CPU counters too · b82914ce

      This used to be unstable when we had the rq->lock dependencies,
but now that they are that of the past we can turn on percpu
counter RR too.
