commit 99592d598eca62bdbbf62b59941c189176dfc614 upstream.
When studying page stealing, I noticed some weird looking decisions in
try_to_steal_freepages(). The first I assume is a bug (Patch 1), the
following two patches were driven by evaluation.
Testing was done with stress-highalloc of mmtests, using the
mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint and postprocessing to get counts of how
often page stealing occurs for individual migratetypes, and what
migratetypes are used for fallbacks. Arguably, the worst case of page
stealing is when UNMOVABLE allocation steals from MOVABLE pageblock.
RECLAIMABLE allocation stealing from MOVABLE allocation is also not ideal,
so the goal is to minimize these two cases.
The evaluation of v2 wasn't always clear win and Joonsoo questioned the
results. Here I used different baseline which includes RFC compaction
improvements from [1]. I found that the compaction improvements reduce
variability of stress-highalloc, so there's less noise in the data.
First, let's look at stress-highalloc configured to do sync compaction,
and how these patches reduce page stealing events during the test. First
column is after fresh reboot, other two are reiterations of test without
reboot. That was all accumulater over 5 re-iterations (so the benchmark
was run 5x3 times with 5 fresh restarts).

In v2 we've seen apparent regression with Patch 1 for unmovable events,
this is now gone, suggesting it was indeed noise. Here, each patch
improves the situation for unmovable events. Reclaimable is improved by
patch 1 and then either the same modulo noise, or perhaps sligtly worse -
a small price for unmovable improvements, IMHO. The number of movable
allocations falling back to other migratetypes is most noisy, but it's
reduced to half at Patch 2 nevertheless. These are least critical as
compaction can move them around.
If we look at success rates, the patches don't affect them, that didn't change.

While there's no improvement here, I consider reduced fragmentation events
to be worth on its own. Patch 2 also seems to reduce scanning for free

As with v2, /proc/pagetypeinfo appears unaffected with respect to numbers
of unmovable and reclaimable pageblocks.
Configuring the benchmark to allocate like THP page fault (i.e. no sync
compaction) gives much noisier results for iterations 2 and 3 after
reboot. This is not so surprising given how [1] offers lower improvements
in this scenario due to less restarts after deferred compaction which
would change compaction pivot.

The improvements for first iteration are clear, the rest is much noisier
and can appear like regression for Patch 1. Anyway, patch 2 rectifies it.
Allocation success rates are again unaffected so there's no point in
making this e-mail any longer.
[1] http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=142166196321125&w=2
This patch (of 3):
When __rmqueue_fallback() is called to allocate a page of order X, it will
find a page of order Y >= X of a fallback migratetype, which is different
from the desired migratetype. With the help of try_to_steal_freepages(),
it may change the migratetype (to the desired one) also of:
1) all currently free pages in the pageblock containing the fallback page
2) the fallback pageblock itself
3) buddy pages created by splitting the fallback page (when Y > X)
These decisions take the order Y into account, as well as the desired
migratetype, with the goal of preventing multiple fallback allocations
that could e.g. distribute UNMOVABLE allocations among multiple
pageblocks.
Originally, decision for 1) has implied the decision for 3). Commit
47118af076f6 ("mm: mmzone: MIGRATE_CMA migration type added") changed that
(probably unintentionally) so that the buddy pages in case 3) are always
changed to the desired migratetype, except for CMA pageblocks.
Commit fef903efcf0c ("mm/page_allo.c: restructure free-page stealing code
and fix a bug") did some refactoring and added a comment that the case of
3) is intended. Commit 0cbef29a7821 ("mm: __rmqueue_fallback() should
respect pageblock type") removed the comment and tried to restore the
original behavior where 1) implies 3), but due to the previous
refactoring, the result is instead that only 2) implies 3) - and the
conditions for 2) are less frequently met than conditions for 1). This
may increase fragmentation in situations where the code decides to steal
all free pages from the pageblock (case 1)), but then gives back the buddy
pages produced by splitting.
This patch restores the original intended logic where 1) implies 3).
During testing with stress-highalloc from mmtests, this has shown to
decrease the number of events where UNMOVABLE and RECLAIMABLE allocations
steal from MOVABLE pageblocks, which can lead to permanent fragmentation.
In some cases it has increased the number of events when MOVABLE
allocations steal from UNMOVABLE or RECLAIMABLE pageblocks, but these are
fixable by sync compaction and thus less harmful.
Note that evaluation has shown that the behavior introduced by
47118af076f6 for buddy pages in case 3) is actually even better than the
original logic, so the following patch will introduce it properly once
again. For stable backports of this patch it makes thus sense to only fix
versions containing 0cbef29a7821.

commit 24b7e5819ad5cbef2b7c7376510862aa8319d240 upstream.
This was formerly the series "Improve sequential read throughput" which
noted some major differences in performance of tiobench since 3.0.
While there are a number of factors, two that dominated were the
introduction of the fair zone allocation policy and changes to CFQ.
The behaviour of fair zone allocation policy makes more sense than
tiobench as a benchmark and CFQ defaults were not changed due to
insufficient benchmarking.
This series is what's left. It's one functional fix to the fair zone
allocation policy when used on NUMA machines and a reduction of overhead
in general. tiobench was used for the comparison despite its flaws as
an IO benchmark as in this case we are primarily interested in the
overhead of page allocator and page reclaim activity.
On UMA, it makes little difference to overhead

commit aee4e5f3d3abb7a2239dd02f6d8fb173413fd02f upstream.
When recording the state of a task for the sched_switch tracepoint a check of
task_preempt_count() is performed to see if PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set. This is
because, technically, a task being preempted is really in the TASK_RUNNING
state, and that is what should be recorded when tracing a sched_switch,
even if the task put itself into another state (it hasn't scheduled out
in that state yet).
But with the change to use per_cpu preempt counts, the
task_thread_info(p)->preempt_count is no longer used, and instead
task_preempt_count(p) is used.
The problem is that this does not use the current preempt count but a stale
one from a previous sched_switch. The task_preempt_count(p) uses
saved_preempt_count and not preempt_count(). But for tracing sched_switch,
if p is current, we really want preempt_count().
I hit this bug when I was tracing sleep and the call from do_nanosleep()
scheduled out in the "RUNNING" state.
sleep-4290 [000] 537272.259992: sched_switch: sleep:4290 [120] R ==> swapper/0:0 [120]
sleep-4290 [000] 537272.260015: kernel_stack: <stack trace>

=> SyS_nanosleep (ffffffff8108d750)
=> return_to_handler (ffffffff8150e8e5)
=> tracesys_phase2 (ffffffff8150c844)
After a bit of hair pulling, I found that the state was really
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, but the saved_preempt_count had an old PREEMPT_ACTIVE
set and caused the sched_switch tracepoint to show it as RUNNING.

commit f8c9301fa5a2a8b873c67f2a3d8230d5c13f61b7 upstream.
During compaction, update_nr_listpages() has been used to count remaining
non-migrated and free pages after a call to migrage_pages(). The
freepages counting has become unneccessary, and it turns out that
migratepages counting is also unnecessary in most cases.
The only situation when it's needed to count cc->migratepages is when
migrate_pages() returns with a negative error code. Otherwise, the
non-negative return value is the number of pages that were not migrated,
which is exactly the count of remaining pages in the cc->migratepages
list.
Furthermore, any non-zero count is only interesting for the tracepoint of
mm_compaction_migratepages events, because after that all remaining
unmigrated pages are put back and their count is set to 0.
This patch therefore removes update_nr_listpages() completely, and changes
the tracepoint definition so that the manual counting is done only when
the tracepoint is enabled, and only when migrate_pages() returns a
negative error code.
Furthermore, migrate_pages() and the tracepoints won't be called when
there's nothing to migrate. This potentially avoids some wasted cycles
and reduces the volume of uninteresting mm_compaction_migratepages events
where "nr_migrated=0 nr_failed=0". In the stress-highalloc mmtest, this
was about 75% of the events. The mm_compaction_isolate_migratepages event
is better for determining that nothing was isolated for migration, and
this one was just duplicating the info.

commit 4af4206be2bd1933cae20c2b6fb2058dbc887f7c upstream.
syscall_regfunc() and syscall_unregfunc() should set/clear
TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT system-wide, but do_each_thread() can race
with copy_process() and miss the new child which was not added to
the process/thread lists yet.
Change copy_process() to update the child's TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT
under tasklist.

commit 098507ae3ec2331476fb52e85d4040c1cc6d0ef4 upstream.
The replacement of the 'count' variable by two variables 'incs' and
'decs' to resolve some race conditions during module unloading was done
in parallel with some cleanup in the trace subsystem, and was integrated
as a merge.
Unfortunately, the formula for this replacement was wrong in the tracing
code, and the refcount in the traces was not usable as a result.
Use 'count = incs - decs' to compute the user count.

commit af5040da01ef980670b3741b3e10733ee3e33566 upstream.
trace_block_rq_complete does not take into account that request can
be partially completed, so we can get the following incorrect output
of blkparser:
C R 232 + 240 [0]
C R 240 + 232 [0]
C R 248 + 224 [0]
C R 256 + 216 [0]
but should be:
C R 232 + 8 [0]
C R 240 + 8 [0]
C R 248 + 8 [0]
C R 256 + 8 [0]
Also, the whole output summary statistics of completed requests and
final throughput will be incorrect.
This patch takes into account real completion size of the request and
fixes wrong completion accounting.

In event format strings, the array size is reported in two locations.
One in array subscript and then via the "size:" attribute. The values
reported there have a mismatch.
For e.g., in sched:sched_switch the prev_comm and next_comm character
arrays have subscript values as [32] where as the actual field size is
16.
name: sched_switch
ID: 301
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1;signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:char prev_comm[32]; offset:8; size:16; signed:1;
field:pid_t prev_pid; offset:24; size:4; signed:1;
field:int prev_prio; offset:28; size:4; signed:1;
field:long prev_state; offset:32; size:8; signed:1;
field:char next_comm[32]; offset:40; size:16; signed:1;
field:pid_t next_pid; offset:56; size:4; signed:1;
field:int next_prio; offset:60; size:4; signed:1;
After bisection, the following commit was blamed:
92edca0 tracing: Use direct field, type and system names
This commit removes the duplication of strings for field->name and
field->type assuming that all the strings passed in
__trace_define_field() are immutable. This is not true for arrays, where
the type string is created in event_storage variable and field->type for
all array fields points to event_storage.
Use __stringify() to create a string constant for the type string.
Also, get rid of event_storage and event_storage_mutex that are not
needed anymore.
also, an added benefit is that this reduces the overhead of events a bit more:

This reverts commit c4a391b53a72d2df4ee97f96f78c1d5971b47489. Dave
Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> has reported the commit may cause some
inodes to be left out from sync(2). This is because we can call
redirty_tail() for some inode (which sets i_dirtied_when to current time)
after sync(2) has started or similarly requeue_inode() can set
i_dirtied_when to current time if writeback had to skip some pages. The
real problem is in the functions clobbering i_dirtied_when but fixing
that isn't trivial so revert is a safer choice for now.

We use set_bit() to assign ordered extent's flags, but in the related
tracepoint we don't do the same thing, which makes the trace output
not to parse flags correctly.
Also, since the flags are bits stuff, we change to use __print_flags with
a 'delim' instead of __print_symbolic.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As far as the number of commits goes, the top spot belongs to ACPI
this time with cpufreq in the second position and a handful of PM
core, PNP and cpuidle updates. They are fixes and cleanups mostly, as
usual, with a couple of new features in the mix.
The most visible change is probably that we will create struct
acpi_device objects (visible in sysfs) for all devices represented in
the ACPI tables regardless of their status and there will be a new
sysfs attribute under those objects allowing user space to check that
status via _STA.
Consequently, ACPI device eject or generally hot-removal will not
delete those objects, unless the table containing the corresponding
namespace nodes is unloaded, which is extremely rare. Also ACPI
container hotplug will be handled quite a bit differently and cpufreq
will support CPU boost ("turbo") generically and not only in the
acpi-cpufreq driver.
Specifics:
- ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for
every device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace
scans regardless of the current status of that device. In
accordance with this, ACPI hotplug operations will not delete those
objects, unless the underlying ACPI tables go away.
- On top of the above, new sysfs attribute for ACPI device objects
allowing user space to check device status by triggering the
execution of _STA for its ACPI object. From Srinivas Pandruvada.
- ACPI core hotplug changes reducing code duplication, integrating
the PCI root hotplug with the core and reworking container hotplug.
- ACPI core simplifications making it use ACPI_COMPANION() in the
code "glueing" ACPI device objects to "physical" devices.
- ACPICA update to upstream version 20131218. This adds support for
the DBG2 and PCCT tables to ACPICA, fixes some bugs and improves
debug facilities. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng and Betty Dall.
- Init code change to carry out the early ACPI initialization
earlier. That should allow us to use ACPI during the timekeeping
initialization and possibly to simplify the EFI initialization too.
From Chun-Yi Lee.
- Clenups of the inclusions of ACPI headers in many places all over
from Lv Zheng and Rashika Kheria (work in progress).
- New helper for ACPI _DSM execution and rework of the code in
drivers that uses _DSM to execute it via the new helper. From

- Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups from Al Stone, Emil Goode, Hanjun
Guo, Lan Tianyu, Masanari Iida, Oliver Neukum, Prarit Bhargava,

The broad goal of the series is to improve allocation success rates for
huge pages through memory compaction, while trying not to increase the
compaction overhead. The original objective was to reintroduce
capturing of high-order pages freed by the compaction, before they are
split by concurrent activity. However, several bugs and opportunities
for simple improvements were found in the current implementation, mostly
through extra tracepoints (which are however too ugly for now to be
considered for sending).
The patches mostly deal with two mechanisms that reduce compaction
overhead, which is caching the progress of migrate and free scanners,
and marking pageblocks where isolation failed to be skipped during
further scans.
Patch 1 (from mgorman) adds tracepoints that allow calculate time spent in
compaction and potentially debug scanner pfn values.
Patch 2 encapsulates the some functionality for handling deferred compactions
for better maintainability, without a functional change
type is not determined without being actually needed.
Patch 3 fixes a bug where cached scanner pfn's are sometimes reset only after
they have been read to initialize a compaction run.
Patch 4 fixes a bug where scanners meeting is sometimes not properly detected
and can lead to multiple compaction attempts quitting early without
doing any work.
Patch 5 improves the chances of sync compaction to process pageblocks that
async compaction has skipped due to being !MIGRATE_MOVABLE.
Patch 6 improves the chances of sync direct compaction to actually do anything
when called after async compaction fails during allocation slowpath.
The impact of patches were validated using mmtests's stress-highalloc
benchmark with mmtests's stress-highalloc benchmark on a x86_64 machine
with 4GB memory.
Due to instability of the results (mostly related to the bugs fixed by
patches 2 and 3), 10 iterations were performed, taking min,mean,max
values for success rates and mean values for time and vmstat-based
metrics.
First, the default GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocations were tested with the
patches stacked on top of v3.13-rc2. Patch 2 is OK to serve as baseline
due to no functional changes in 1 and 2. Comments below.

Observations:
- The "Success 3" line is allocation success rate with system idle
(phases 1 and 2 are with background interference). I used to get stable
values around 85% with vanilla 3.11. The lower min and mean values came
with 3.12. This was bisected to commit 81c0a2bb ("mm: page_alloc: fair
zone allocator policy") As explained in comment for patch 3, I don't
think the commit is wrong, but that it makes the effect of compaction
bugs worse. From patch 3 onwards, the results are OK and match the 3.11
results.
- Patch 4 also clearly helps phases 1 and 2, and exceeds any results
I've seen with 3.11 (I didn't measure it that thoroughly then, but it
was never above 40%).
- Compaction cost and number of scanned pages is higher, especially due
to patch 4. However, keep in mind that patches 3 and 4 fix existing
bugs in the current design of compaction overhead mitigation, they do
not change it. If overhead is found unacceptable, then it should be
decreased differently (and consistently, not due to random conditions)
than the current implementation does. In contrast, patches 5 and 6
(which are not strictly bug fixes) do not increase the overhead (but
also not success rates). This might be a limitation of the
stress-highalloc benchmark as it's quite uniform.
Another set of results is when configuring stress-highalloc t allocate
with similar flags as THP uses:
(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_NOMEMALLOC|__GFP_NORETRY|__GFP_NO_KSWAPD)

There are some differences from the previous results for THP-like allocations:
- Here, the bad result for unpatched kernel in phase 3 is much more
consistent to be between 65-70% and not related to the "regression" in
3.12. Still there is the improvement from patch 4 onwards, which brings
it on par with simple GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocations.
- Compaction costs have increased, but nowhere near as much as the
non-THP case. Again, the patches should be worth the gained
determininsm.
- Patches 5 and 6 somewhat increase the number of migrate-scanned pages.
This is most likely due to __GFP_NO_KSWAPD flag, which means the cached
pfn's and pageblock skip bits are not reset by kswapd that often (at
least in phase 3 where no concurrent activity would wake up kswapd) and
the patches thus help the sync-after-async compaction. It doesn't
however show that the sync compaction would help so much with success
rates, which can be again seen as a limitation of the benchmark
scenario.
This patch (of 6):
Add two tracepoints for compaction begin and end of a zone. Using this it
is possible to calculate how much time a workload is spending within
compaction and potentially debug problems related to cached pfns for
scanning. In combination with the direct reclaim and slab trace points it
should be possible to estimate most allocation-related overhead for a
workload.

This patch adds three tracepoints
o trace_sched_move_numa when a task is moved to a node
o trace_sched_swap_numa when a task is swapped with another task
o trace_sched_stick_numa when a numa-related migration fails
The tracepoints allow the NUMA scheduler activity to be monitored and the
following high-level metrics can be calculated
o NUMA migrated stuck nr trace_sched_stick_numa
o NUMA migrated idle nr trace_sched_move_numa
o NUMA migrated swapped nr trace_sched_swap_numa
o NUMA local swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_nid == dst_nid (should never happen)
o NUMA remote swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_nid != dst_nid (should == NUMA migrated swapped)
o NUMA group swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_ngid == dst_ngid
Maybe a small number of these are acceptable
but a high number would be a major surprise.
It would be even worse if bounces are frequent.
o NUMA avg task migs. Average number of migrations for tasks
o NUMA stddev task mig Self-explanatory
o NUMA max task migs. Maximum number of migrations for a single task
In general the intent of the tracepoints is to help diagnose problems
where automatic NUMA balancing appears to be doing an excessive amount
of useless work.

The event trigger code that checks for callback triggers before and
after recording of an event has lots of flags checks. This code is
duplicated throughout the ftrace events, kprobes and system calls.
They all do the exact same checks against the event flags.
Added helper functions ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled(),
event_trigger_unlock_commit() and event_trigger_unlock_commit_regs()
that consolidated the code and these are used instead.

Add a generic event_command.set_trigger_filter() op implementation and
have the current set of trigger commands use it - this essentially
gives them all support for filters.
Syntactically, filters are supported by adding 'if <filter>' just
after the command, in which case only events matching the filter will
invoke the trigger. For example, to add a filter to an
enable/disable_event command:
echo 'enable_event:system:event if common_pid == 999' > \
.../othersys/otherevent/trigger
The above command will only enable the system:event event if the
common_pid field in the othersys:otherevent event is 999.
As another example, to add a filter to a stacktrace command:
echo 'stacktrace if common_pid == 999' > \
.../somesys/someevent/trigger
The above command will only trigger a stacktrace if the common_pid
field in the event is 999.
The filter syntax is the same as that described in the 'Event
filtering' section of Documentation/trace/events.txt.
Because triggers can now use filters, the trigger-invoking logic needs
to be moved in those cases - e.g. for ftrace_raw_event_calls, if a
trigger has a filter associated with it, the trigger invocation now
needs to happen after the { assign; } part of the call, in order for
the trigger condition to be tested.
There's still a SOFT_DISABLED-only check at the top of e.g. the
ftrace_raw_events function, so when an event is soft disabled but not
because of the presence of a trigger, the original SOFT_DISABLED
behavior remains unchanged.
There's also a bit of trickiness in that some triggers need to avoid
being invoked while an event is currently in the process of being
logged, since the trigger may itself log data into the trace buffer.
Thus we make sure the current event is committed before invoking those
triggers. To do that, we split the trigger invocation in two - the
first part (event_triggers_call()) checks the filter using the current
trace record; if a command has the post_trigger flag set, it sets a
bit for itself in the return value, otherwise it directly invoks the
trigger. Once all commands have been either invoked or set their
return flag, event_triggers_call() returns. The current record is
then either committed or discarded; if any commands have deferred
their triggers, those commands are finally invoked following the close
of the current event by event_triggers_post_call().
To simplify the above and make it more efficient, the TRIGGER_COND bit
is introduced, which is set only if a soft-disabled trigger needs to
use the log record for filter testing or needs to wait until the
current log record is closed.
The syscall event invocation code is also changed in analogous ways.
Because event triggers need to be able to create and free filters,
this also adds a couple external wrappers for the existing
create_filter and free_filter functions, which are too generic to be
made extern functions themselves.

Add a 'trigger' file for each trace event, enabling 'trace event
triggers' to be set for trace events.
'trace event triggers' are patterned after the existing 'ftrace
function triggers' implementation except that triggers are written to
per-event 'trigger' files instead of to a single file such as the
'set_ftrace_filter' used for ftrace function triggers.
The implementation is meant to be entirely separate from ftrace
function triggers, in order to keep the respective implementations
relatively simple and to allow them to diverge.
The event trigger functionality is built on top of SOFT_DISABLE
functionality. It adds a TRIGGER_MODE bit to the ftrace_event_file
flags which is checked when any trace event fires. Triggers set for a
particular event need to be checked regardless of whether that event
is actually enabled or not - getting an event to fire even if it's not
enabled is what's already implemented by SOFT_DISABLE mode, so trigger
mode directly reuses that. Event trigger essentially inherit the soft
disable logic in __ftrace_event_enable_disable() while adding a bit of
logic and trigger reference counting via tm_ref on top of that in a
new trace_event_trigger_enable_disable() function. Because the base
__ftrace_event_enable_disable() code now needs to be invoked from
outside trace_events.c, a wrapper is also added for those usages.
The triggers for an event are actually invoked via a new function,
event_triggers_call(), and code is also added to invoke them for
ftrace_raw_event calls as well as syscall events.
The main part of the patch creates a new trace_events_trigger.c file
to contain the trace event triggers implementation.
The standard open, read, and release file operations are implemented
here.
The open() implementation sets up for the various open modes of the
'trigger' file. It creates and attaches the trigger iterator and sets
up the command parser. If opened for reading set up the trigger
seq_ops.
The read() implementation parses the event trigger written to the
'trigger' file, looks up the trigger command, and passes it along to
that event_command's func() implementation for command-specific
processing.
The release() implementation does whatever cleanup is needed to
release the 'trigger' file, like releasing the parser and trigger
iterator, etc.
A couple of functions for event command registration and
unregistration are added, along with a list to add them to and a mutex
to protect them, as well as an (initially empty) registration function
to add the set of commands that will be added by future commits, and
call to it from the trace event initialization code.
also added are a couple trigger-specific data structures needed for
these implementations such as a trigger iterator and a struct for
trigger-specific data.
A couple structs consisting mostly of function meant to be implemented
in command-specific ways, event_command and event_trigger_ops, are
used by the generic event trigger command implementations. They're
being put into trace.h alongside the other trace_event data structures
and functions, in the expectation that they'll be needed in several
trace_event-related files such as trace_events_trigger.c and
trace_events.c.
The event_command.func() function is meant to be called by the trigger
parsing code in order to add a trigger instance to the corresponding
event. It essentially coordinates adding a live trigger instance to
the event, and arming the triggering the event.
Every event_command func() implementation essentially does the
same thing for any command:
- choose ops - use the value of param to choose either a number or
count version of event_trigger_ops specific to the command
- do the register or unregister of those ops
- associate a filter, if specified, with the triggering event
The reg() and unreg() ops allow command-specific implementations for
event_trigger_op registration and unregistration, and the
get_trigger_ops() op allows command-specific event_trigger_ops
selection to be parameterized. When a trigger instance is added, the
reg() op essentially adds that trigger to the triggering event and
arms it, while unreg() does the opposite. The set_filter() function
is used to associate a filter with the trigger - if the command
doesn't specify a set_filter() implementation, the command will ignore
filters.
Each command has an associated trigger_type, which serves double duty,
both as a unique identifier for the command as well as a value that
can be used for setting a trigger mode bit during trigger invocation.
The signature of func() adds a pointer to the event_command struct,
used to invoke those functions, along with a command_data param that
can be passed to the reg/unreg functions. This allows func()
implementations to use command-specific blobs and supports code
re-use.
The event_trigger_ops.func() command corrsponds to the trigger 'probe'
function that gets called when the triggering event is actually
invoked. The other functions are used to list the trigger when
needed, along with a couple mundane book-keeping functions.
This also moves event_file_data() into trace.h so it can be used
outside of trace_events.c.

There's inconsistency between dmesg and the trace event output.
When dmesg says "severity=Corrected", the trace event says
"severity=Fatal". What happens is that HW_EVENT_ERR_CORRECTED is
defined in edac.h:
enum hw_event_mc_err_type {
HW_EVENT_ERR_CORRECTED,
HW_EVENT_ERR_UNCORRECTED,
HW_EVENT_ERR_FATAL,
HW_EVENT_ERR_INFO,
};
while aer_print_error() uses aer_error_severity_string[] defined as:
static const char *aer_error_severity_string[] = {
"Uncorrected (Non-Fatal)",
"Uncorrected (Fatal)",
"Corrected"
};
In this case dmesg is correct because info->severity is assigned in
aer_isr_one_error() using the definitions in include/linux/ras.h:

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

Doing an if statement to test some condition to know if we should
trigger a tracepoint is pointless when tracing is disabled. This just
adds overhead and wastes a branch prediction. This is why the
TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION() was created. It places the check inside the jump
label so that the branch does not happen unless tracing is enabled.
That is, instead of doing:
if (em)
trace_btrfs_get_extent(root, em);
Which is basically this:
if (em)
if (static_key(trace_btrfs_get_extent)) {
Using a TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION() we can just do:
trace_btrfs_get_extent(root, em);
And the condition trace event will do:
if (static_key(trace_btrfs_get_extent)) {
if (em) {
...
The static key is a non conditional jump (or nop) that is faster than
having to check if em is NULL or not.

Vince's perf-trinity fuzzer found yet another 'interesting' problem.
When we sample the irq_work_exit tracepoint with period==1 (or
PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD) and we add an fasync SIGNAL handler we create an
infinite event generation loop:
,-> <IPI>
| irq_work_exit() ->
| trace_irq_work_exit() ->
| ...
| __perf_event_overflow() -> (due to fasync)
| irq_work_queue() -> (irq_work_list must be empty)
'--------- arch_irq_work_raise()
Similar things can happen due to regular poll() wakeups if we exceed
the ring-buffer wakeup watermark, or have an event_limit.
To avoid this, dis-allow sampling this particular tracepoint.
In order to achieve this, create a special perf_perm function pointer
for each event and call this (when set) on trying to create a
tracepoint perf event.
