Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Some clean ups and small fixes, but the biggest change is the addition
of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints.
Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called
__print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be
displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the
TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that user
space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data and
express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT()
macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty
much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's
because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values by
the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the format
file, and this makes it useless for user space tools.
The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings in
the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is shown to
user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently has this
in its format file:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
After adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
Its format file will contain this:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })"

Pull tracefs from Steven Rostedt:
"This adds the new tracefs file system.
This has been in linux-next for more than one release, as I had it
ready for the 4.0 merge window, but a last minute thing that needed to
go into Linux first had to be done. That was that perf hard coded the
file system number when reading /sys/kernel/debugfs/tracing directory
making sure that the path had the debugfs mount # before it would
parse the tracing file. This broke other use cases of perf, and the
check is removed.
Now when mounting /sys/kernel/debug, tracefs is automatically mounted
in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing such that old tools will still see that
path as expected. But now system admins can mount tracefs directly
and not need to mount debugfs, which can expose security issues. A
new directory is created when tracefs is configured such that system
admins can now mount it separately (/sys/kernel/tracing)"

Currently, smpboot_unpark_threads() is invoked before the incoming CPU
has been added to the scheduler's runqueue structures. This might
potentially cause the unparked kthread to run on the wrong CPU, since the
correct CPU isn't fully set up yet.
That causes a sporadic, hard to debug boot crash triggering on some
systems, reported by Borislav Petkov, and bisected down to:
2a442c9c6453 ("x86: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code")
This patch places smpboot_unpark_threads() in a CPU hotplug
notifier with priority set so that these kthreads are unparked just after
the CPU has been added to the runqueues.

Similar to what Linus suggested for rwsem_spin_on_owner(), in
mutex_spin_on_owner() instead of having while (true) and
breaking out of the spin loop on lock->owner != owner, we can
have the loop directly check for while (lock->owner == owner) to
improve the readability of the code.
It also shrinks the code a bit:

Unlike most (all?) other copies from user space, kernel module loading
is almost unlimited in size. So we do a potentially huge
"copy_from_user()" when we copy the module data from user space to the
kernel buffer, which can be a latency concern when preemption is
disabled (or voluntary).
Also, because 'copy_from_user()' clears the tail of the kernel buffer on
failures, even a *failed* copy can end up wasting a lot of time.
Normally neither of these are concerns in real life, but they do trigger
when doing stress-testing with trinity. Running in a VM seems to add
its own overheadm causing trinity module load testing to even trigger
the watchdog.
The simple fix is to just chunk up the module loading, so that it never
tries to copy insanely big areas in one go. That bounds the latency,
and also the amount of (unnecessarily, in this case) cleared memory for
the failure case.

There is a number of cases where a kernel subsystem may want to
introspect the state of an interrupt at the irqchip level:
- When a peripheral is shared between virtual machines,
its interrupt state becomes part of the guest's state,
and must be switched accordingly. KVM on arm/arm64 requires
this for its guest-visible timer
- Some GPIO controllers seem to require peeking into the
interrupt controller they are connected to to report
their internal state
This seem to be a pattern that is common enough for the core code
to try and support this without too many horrible hacks. Introduce
a pair of accessors (irq_get_irqchip_state/irq_set_irqchip_state)
to retrieve the bits that can be of interest to another subsystem:
pending, active, and masked.
- irq_get_irqchip_state returns the state of the interrupt according
to a parameter set to IRQCHIP_STATE_PENDING, IRQCHIP_STATE_ACTIVE,
IRQCHIP_STATE_MASKED or IRQCHIP_STATE_LINE_LEVEL.
- irq_set_irqchip_state similarly sets the state of the interrupt.

The ITS msi_prepare callback having failed, we end-up trying to
free MSIs that have never been allocated. Oddly enough, the kernel
is pretty upset about it.
It turns out that this behaviour was expected before the MSI domain
was introduced (and dealt with in arch_teardown_msi_irqs).
The obvious fix is to detect this early enough and bail out.

Add a enum_map file in the tracing directory to see what enums have been
saved to convert in the print fmt files.
As this requires the enum mapping to be persistent in memory, it is only
created if the new config option CONFIG_TRACE_ENUM_MAP_FILE is enabled.
This is for debugging and will increase the persistent memory footprint
of the kernel.

Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or
__print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the
binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading
the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools
such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a
human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not
have access to what the ENUM is.
For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and
trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would
not be able to map it.
With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header
files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values:
By adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format
[...]
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })
The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to
be modified to parse them.

Currently when a process accesses a hugetlb range protected with
PROTNONE, unexpected COWs are triggered, which finally puts the hugetlb
subsystem into a broken/uncontrollable state, where for example
h->resv_huge_pages is subtracted too much and wraps around to a very
large number, and the free hugepage pool is no longer maintainable.
This patch simply stops changing protection for vma(VM_HUGETLB) to fix
the problem. And this also allows us to avoid useless overhead of minor
faults.

The sysfs code usually belongs to the botom of the file since it deals
with high level objects. In the workqueue code it's misplaced and such
that we'll need to work around functions references to allow the sysfs
code to call APIs like apply_workqueue_attrs().
Lets move that block further in the file, almost the botom.
And declare workqueue_sysfs_unregister() just before destroy_workqueue()
which reference it.
tj: Moved workqueue_sysfs_unregister() forward declaration where other
forward declarations are.

tick_unfreeze() which leads to an unbalanced execution of

clockevents_notify() is a leftover from the early design of the
clockevents facility. It's really not a notification mechanism,
it's a multiplex call. We are way better off to have explicit
calls instead of this monstrosity.
Split out the cleanup function for a dead cpu and invoke it
directly from the cpu down code. Make it conditional on
CPU_HOTPLUG as well.
Temporary change, will be refined in the future.

If a system does not provide a persistent_clock(), the time
will be updated on resume by rtc_resume(). With the addition
of the non-stop clocksources for suspend timing, those systems
set the time on resume in timekeeping_resume(), but may not
provide a valid persistent_clock().
This results in the rtc_resume() logic thinking no one has set
the time and it then will over-write the suspend time again,
which is not necessary and only increases clock error.
So, fix this for rtc_resume().
This patch also improves the name of persistent_clock_exist to
make it more grammatical.

When there's no persistent clock, normally
timekeeping_suspend_time should always be zero, but this can
break in timekeeping_suspend().
At T1, there was a system suspend, so old_delta was assigned T1.
After some time, one time adjustment happened, and xtime got the
value of T1-dt(0s<dt<2s). Then, there comes another system
suspend soon after this adjustment, obviously we will get a
small negative delta_delta, resulting in a negative
timekeeping_suspend_time.
This is problematic, when doing timekeeping_resume() if there is
no nonstop clocksource for example, it will hit the else leg and
inject the improper sleeptime which is the wrong logic.
So, we can solve this problem by only doing delta related code
when the persistent clock is existent. Actually the code only
makes sense for persistent clock cases.
