Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "As a first remark I'd like to note that the way to build perf tooling
  has been simplified and sped up, in the future it should be enough for
  you to build perf via:

        cd tools/perf/
        make install

  (ie without the -j option.) The build system will figure out the
  number of CPUs and will do a parallel build+install.

  The various build system inefficiencies and breakages Linus reported
  against the v3.12 pull request should now be resolved - please
  (re-)report any remaining annoyances or bugs.

  Main changes on the perf kernel side:

  Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
  utilize the above kernel side changes):

   * 'perf report/top' enhancements:

      . Convert callchain children list to rbtree, greatly reducing the
        time taken for callchain processing, from Namhyung Kim.

      . Add new COMM infrastructure, further improving histogram
        processing, from Frédéric Weisbecker, one fix from Namhyung Kim.

        Adrian Hunter.

      . Show progress on histogram collapsing, that can take a long
        time, from Namhyung Kim.

        Tarreau.

   * 'perf trace' enhancements:

      . 'perf trace' now can can use a 'perf probe' dynamic tracepoints
        to hook into the userspace -> kernel pathname copy so that it
        can map fds to pathnames without reading /proc/pid/fd/ symlinks.
        From Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

      . Show VFS path associated with fd in live sessions, using a
        'vfs_getname' 'perf probe' created dynamic tracepoint or by
        looking at /proc/pid/fd, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

      . Add 'trace' beautifiers for lots of syscall arguments, from

      . 'perf trace' now emits hints as to why tracing is not possible,
        helping the user to setup the system to allow tracing in the
        desired permission granularity, telling if the problem is due to
        debugfs not being mounted or with not enough permission for
        !root, /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoit value, etc.  From
        Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

      . Check maximum frequency rate for record/top, emitting better
        error messages, from Jiri Olsa.

      . 'perf record' code cleanups, from David Ahern.

      . Improve write_output error message in 'perf record', from Adrian
        Hunter.

        allowing asking for all possible variables at a given probe
        point to be collected when it hits, from Masami Hiramatsu.

   * 'perf sched' enhancements:

      . Address the root cause of that 'perf sched' stack initialization
        build slowdown, by programmatically setting a big array after
        moving the global variable back to the stack.  Fix from Adrian
        Hunter.

522e664644 x86/apic: Disable I/O APIC before shutdown of the local APIC
In reboot and crash path, when we shut down the local APIC, the I/O APIC is
still active. This may cause issues because external interrupts
can still come in and disturb the local APIC during shutdown process.

To quiet external interrupts, disable I/O APIC before shutdown local APIC.

0e4ccb1505 PCI: Add x86_msi.msi_mask_irq() and msix_mask_irq()
Certain platforms do not allow writes in the MSI-X BARs to setup or tear
down vector values.  To combat against the generic code trying to write to
that and either silently being ignored or crashing due to the pagetables
being marked R/O this patch introduces a platform override.

Note that we keep two separate, non-weak, functions default_mask_msi_irqs()
and default_mask_msix_irqs() for the behavior of the arch_mask_msi_irqs()
and arch_mask_msix_irqs(), as the default behavior is needed by x86 PCI
code.

For Xen, which does not allow the guest to write to MSI-X tables - as the
hypervisor is solely responsible for setting the vector values - we
implement two nops.

This fixes a Xen guest crash when passing a PCI device with MSI-X to the
guest.  See the bugzilla for more details.

0a196848ca perf: Fix arch_perf_out_copy_user default
The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of
__copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other
argument functions given DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() return bytes copied.

Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes
copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not
copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes
not copied.

Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied
while expecting its worker functions to return bytes copied.

a477c8594b x86/cpu: Always print SMP information in /proc/cpuinfo
Currently show_cpuinfo_core() displays cpu core information only if
the number of threads per a whole cores is 2 or larger.

However, this condition doesn't care about the number of
sockets. For example, this condition doesn't hold on systems
with two logical cpus consisting of two sockets and a single
core on each socket - yet the topology information would be
interesting to see in that case as well.

I don't know whether or not there are processors in real world
by which such configurations are possible, but at least on
vitual machine environments, such configuration can occur,
typically when no explicit SMP information is provided in
advance.

For example, on qemu/KVM, SMP information is specified via -smp
command-line option, more specifically, its syntax is:

  -smp n[,cores=cores][,threads=threads][,sockets=sockets][,maxcpus=maxcpus]

If this is not specified, qemu tells configuration with
n-sockets, 1-core and 1-thread to the guest machine, on which
guest, MP information is not displayed in /proc/cpuinfo.

I saw this situation on VMWare guest environment, too.

To fix this issue, this patch simply removes the condition
because this information is useful even if there's only 1
thread.

caller. But we also need to skip over the breakpoint in function
ftrace_int3_handler() for them. Otherwise weird things would happen.

Three mostly trivial conflicts.

The net/bridge/br_private.h conflict was a function signature (argument
addition) change overlapping with the extern removals from Joe Perches.

In drivers/net/netconsole.c we had one change adjusting a printk message
whilst another changed "printk(KERN_INFO" into "pr_info(".

Lastly, the emulex change was a new inline function addition overlapping
with Joe Perches's extern removals.

Add an asmlinkage wrapper around acpi_enter_sleep_state() to prevent
an empty stub from being called by assmebly code for ACPI_REDUCED_HARDWARE
set.

As arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_xx.S is only compiled when CONFIG_ACPI=y
and there are no users of ACPI_HARDWARE_REDUCED, currently this is in
fact not a real issue, but a cleanup to reduce source code differences
between Linux and ACPICA upstream.

e8a923cc1f perf/x86: Fix NMI measurements
OK, so what I'm actually seeing on my WSM is that sched/clock.c is
'broken' for the purpose we're using it for.

What triggered it is that my WSM-EP is broken :-(

  [    0.001000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT
  [    0.002000] tsc: Detected 2533.715 MHz processor
  [    0.500180] TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#6]:
  [    0.505197] Measured 3 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock.
  [    0.004000] tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed

For some reason it consistently detects TSC skew, even though NHM+
should have a single clock domain for 'reasonable' systems.

This marks sched_clock_stable=0, which means that we do fancy stuff to
try and get a 'sane' clock. Part of this fancy stuff relies on the tick,
clearly that's gone when NOHZ=y. So for idle cpus time gets stuck, until
it either wakes up or gets kicked by another cpu.

While this is perfectly fine for the scheduler -- it only cares about
actually running stuff, and when we're running stuff we're obviously not
idle. This does somewhat break down for perf which can trigger events
just fine on an otherwise idle cpu.

So I've got NMIs get get 'measured' as taking ~1ms, which actually
don't last nearly that long:

          <idle>-0     [013] d.h.   886.311970: rcu_nmi_enter <-do_nmi
  ...
          <idle>-0     [013] d.h.   886.311997: perf_sample_event_took: HERE!!! : 1040990

So ftrace (which uses sched_clock(), not the fancy bits) only sees
~27us, but we measure ~1ms !!

Now since all this measurement stuff lives in x86 code, we can actually
fix it.

09dc68d958 x86/cpu: Track legacy CPU model data only on 32-bit kernels
struct cpu_dev's c_models is only ever set inside CONFIG_X86_32
conditionals (or code that's being built for 32-bit only), so
there's no use of reserving the (empty) space for the model
names in a 64-bit kernel.

Similarly, c_size_cache is only used in the #else of a
CONFIG_X86_64 conditional, so reserving space for (and in one
case even initializing) that field is pointless for 64-bit
kernels too.

While moving both fields to the end of the structure, I also
noticed that:

 - the c_models array size was one too small, potentially causing
   table_lookup_model() to return garbage on Intel CPUs (intel.c's
   instance was lacking the sentinel with family being zero), so the
   patch bumps that by one,

 - c_models' vendor sub-field was unused (and anyway redundant
   with the base structure's c_x86_vendor field), so the patch deletes it.

Also rename the legacy fields so that their legacy nature stands out
and comment their declarations.

0c02c8007e of/irq: Rename of_irq_map_* functions to of_irq_parse_*
The OF irq handling code has been overloading the term 'map' to refer to
both parsing the data in the device tree and mapping it to the internal
linux irq system. This is probably because the device tree does have the
concept of an 'interrupt-map' function for translating interrupt
references from one node to another, but 'map' is still confusing when
the primary purpose of some of the functions are to parse the DT data.

This patch renames all the of_irq_map_* functions to of_irq_parse_*
which makes it clear that there is a difference between the parsing
phase and the mapping phase. Kernel code can make use of just the
parsing or just the mapping support as needed by the subsystem.

The patch was generated mechanically with a handful of sed commands.

05454c26eb intel_mid: Renamed *mrst* to *intel_mid*
Following files contains code that is common to all intel mid
soc's. So renamed them as below.

mrst/mrst.c              -> intel-mid/intel-mid.c
mrst/vrtc.c              -> intel-mid/intel_mid_vrtc.c
mrst/early_printk_mrst.c -> intel-mid/intel_mid_vrtc.c
pci/mrst.c               -> pci/intel_mid_pci.c

Also, renamed the corresponding header files and made changes
to the driver files that included these header files.

To ensure that there are no functional changes, I have compared
the objdump of renamed files before and after rename and found
that the only difference is file name change.

9536c8d2da perf/x86: Optimize intel_pmu_pebs_fixup_ip()
There's been reports of high NMI handler overhead, highlighted by
such kernel messages:

  [ 3697.380195] perf samples too long (10009 > 10000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 13000
  [ 3697.389509] INFO: NMI handler (perf_event_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 9.331 msecs

Don Zickus analyzed the source of the overhead and reported:

The solution to that is to avoid having to call copy_from_user_nmi() for
every instruction.

Since we already limit the max basic block size, we can easily
pre-allocate a piece of memory to copy the entire thing into in one
go.

Don reported this test result:
