2018-03-16arch: remove tile portArnd Bergmann1-8/+0
The Tile architecture port was added by Chris Metcalf in 2010, and maintained until early 2018 when he orphaned it due to his departure from Mellanox, and nobody else stepped up to maintain it. The product line is still around in the form of the BlueField SoC, but no longer uses the Tile architecture. There are also still products for sale with Tile-GX SoCs, notably the Mikrotik CCR router family. The products all use old (linux-3.3) kernels with lots of patches and won't be upgraded by their manufacturers. There have been efforts to port both OpenWRT and Debian to these, but both projects have stalled and are very unlikely to be continued in the future. Given that we are reasonably sure that nobody is still using the port with an upstream kernel any more, it seems better to remove it now while the port is in a good shape than to let it bitrot for a few years first.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle were: Kernel: - kprobes updates: use better W^X patterns for code modifications, improve optprobes, remove jprobes. (Masami Hiramatsu, Kees Cook) - core fixes: event timekeeping (enabled/running times statistics) fixes, perf_event_read() locking fixes and cleanups, etc. (Peter Zijlstra) - Extend x86 Intel free-running PEBS support and support x86 user-register sampling in perf record and perf script. (Andi Kleen) Tooling: - Completely rework the way inline frames are handled. Instead of querying for the inline nodes on-demand in the individual tools, we now create proper callchain nodes for inlined frames. (Milian Wolff) - 'perf trace' updates (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Implement a way to print formatted output to per-event files in 'perf script' to facilitate generate flamegraphs, elliminating the need to write scripts to do that separation (yuzhoujian, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Update vendor events JSON metrics for Intel's Broadwell, Broadwell Server, Haswell, Haswell Server, IvyBridge, IvyTown, JakeTown, Sandy Bridge, Skylake, SkyLake Server - and Goldmont Plus V1 (Andi Kleen, Kan Liang) - Multithread the synthesizing of PERF_RECORD_ events for pre-existing threads in 'perf top', speeding up that phase, greatly improving the user experience in systems such as Intel's Knights Mill (Kan Liang) - Introduce the concept of weak groups in 'perf stat': try to set up a group, but if it's not schedulable fallback to not using a group. That gives us the best of both worlds: groups if they work, but still a usable fallback if they don't.

2016-08-04samples/kretprobe: fix the wrong typeHuang Shijie1-2/+2
The regs_return_value() returns "unsigned long" or "long" value. But the retval is int type now, it may cause overflow, the log may becomes: [ 2911.078869] do_brk returned -2003877888 and took 4620 ns to execute This patch converts the retval to "unsigned long" type, and fixes the overflow issue.

2015-10-01kprobes: use _do_fork() in samples to make them work againPetr Mladek3-12/+12
Commit 3033f14ab78c ("clone: support passing tls argument via C rather than pt_regs magic") introduced _do_fork() that allowed to pass @tls parameter. The old do_fork() is defined only for architectures that are not ready to use this way and do not define HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. Let's use _do_fork() in the kprobe examples to make them work again on all architectures.

2014-09-26kprobes: update jprobe_example.c for do_fork() changeMichael Ellerman1-5/+4
In commit e80d666 "flagday: kill pt_regs argument of do_fork()", the arguments to do_fork() changed. The example code in jprobe_example.c was not updated to match, so the arguments inside the jprobe handler do not match reality. Fix it by updating the arguments to match do_fork(). While we're at it use pr_info() for brevity, and print stack_start as well for interest.

Move kprobes examples from Documentation/kprobes.txt to under samples/. Patch originally by Randy Dunlap. o Updated the patch to apply on 2.6.25-rc3 o Modified examples code to build on multiple architectures. Currently, the kprobe and jprobe examples code works for x86 and powerpc o Cleaned up unneeded #includes o Cleaned up Kconfig per Sam Ravnborg's suggestions to fix build break on archs that don't have kretprobes o Implemented suggestions by Mathieu Desnoyers on CONFIG_KRETPROBES o Included Andrew Morton's cleanup based on x86-git o Modified kretprobe_example to act as a arch-agnostic module to determine routine execution times: Use 'modprobe kretprobe_example func=<func_name>' to determine execution time of func_name in nanoseconds.
