Subject: oprofile, x86: Reimplement nmi timer mode using perf event

The legacy x86 nmi watchdog code was removed with the implementation
of the perf based nmi watchdog. This broke Oprofile's nmi timer
mode. To run nmi timer mode we relied on a continuous ticking nmi
source which the nmi watchdog provided. The nmi tick was no longer
available and current watchdog can not be used anymore since it runs
with very long periods in the range of seconds. This patch
reimplements the nmi timer mode using a perf counter nmi source.

V2:
* removing pr_info()
* fix undefined reference to `__udivdi3' for 32 bit build
* fix section mismatch of .cpuinit.data:nmi_timer_cpu_nb
* removed nmi timer setup in arch/x86
* implemented function stubs for op_nmi_init/exit()
* made code more readable in oprofile_init()

V3:
* fix architectural initialization in oprofile_init()
* fix CONFIG_OPROFILE_NMI_TIMER dependencies

Subject: perf: Do not set task_ctx pointer in cpuctx if there are no events in
 the context

Do not set task_ctx pointer during sched_in if there are no
events associated with the context.  Otherwise if during task
execution total number of events in the system will become zero
perf_event_context_sched_out() will not be called and cpuctx->task_ctx
will be left with a stale value.

Subject: events: Don't divide events if it has field period

This patch solves the following problem:

Now some samples may be lost due to throttling. The number of samples is
restricted by sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate/HZ.  A trace event is
divided on some samples according to event's period.  I don't sure, that
we should generate more than one sample on each trace event. I think the
better way to use SAMPLE_PERIOD.

E.g.: I want to trace when a process sleeps. I created a process, which
sleeps for 1ms and for 4ms.  perf got 100 events in both cases.

swapper     0 [000]  1141.371830: sched_stat_sleep: comm=foo pid=1801 delay=1386750 [ns]
swapper     0 [000]  1141.369444: sched_stat_sleep: comm=foo pid=1801 delay=4499585 [ns]

In the first case a kernel want to send 4499585 events and
in the second case it wants to send 1386750 events.
perf-reports shows that process sleeps in both places equal time. It's
bug.

With this patch kernel generates one event on each "sleep" and the time
slice is saved in the field "period". Perf knows how handle it.

Subject: perf: Fix loss of notification with multi-event

When you do:
        $ perf record -e cycles,cycles,cycles noploop 10

You expect about 10,000 samples for each event, i.e., 10s at
1000samples/sec. However, this is not what's happening. You
get much fewer samples, maybe 3700 samples/event:

           TOTAL events:       3644
          SAMPLE events:       3644

On a Intel Nehalem or even AMD64, there are 4 counters capable
of measuring cycles, so there is plenty of space to measure those
events without multiplexing (even with the NMI watchdog active).
And even with multiplexing, we'd expect roughly the same number
of samples per event.

The root of the problem was that when the event that caused the buffer
to become full was not the first event passed on the cmdline, the user
notification would get lost. The notification was sent to the file
descriptor of the overflowed event but the perf tool was not polling
on it.  The perf tool aggregates all samples into a single buffer,
i.e., the buffer of the first event. Consequently, it assumes
notifications for any event will come via that descriptor.

The seemingly straight forward solution of moving the waitq into the
ringbuffer object doesn't work because of life-time issues. One could
perf_event_set_output() on a fd that you're also blocking on and cause
the old rb object to be freed while its waitq would still be
referenced by the blocked thread -> FAIL.

Therefore link all events to the ringbuffer and broadcast the wakeup
from the ringbuffer object to all possible events that could be waited
upon. This is rather ugly, and we're open to better solutions but it
works for now.

Subject: perf: Avoid a useless pmu_disable() in the perf-tick

Gleb writes:

Cure this by keeping a perf_event_context::nr_freq counter that counts the
number of active events that require frequency adjustments and use this in a
similar fashion to the already existing nr_events != nr_active test in
perf_rotate_context().

By being able to exclude both rotation and frequency adjustments a-priory for
the common case we can avoid the otherwise superfluous PMU disable.

Subject: perf, core: Rate limit perf_sched_events jump_label patching

jump_lable patching is very expensive operation that involves pausing all
cpus. The patching of perf_sched_events jump_label is easily controllable
from userspace by unprivileged user.

When te user runs a loop like this:

  "while true; do perf stat -e cycles true; done"

... the performance of my test application that just increments a counter
for one second drops by 4%.

This is on a 16 cpu box with my test application using only one of
them. An impact on a real server doing real work will be worse.

Performance of KVM PMU drops nearly 50% due to jump_lable for "perf
record" since KVM PMU implementation creates and destroys perf event
frequently.

This patch introduces a way to rate limit jump_label patching and uses
it to fix the above problem.

I believe that as jump_label use will spread the problem will become more
common and thus solving it in a generic code is appropriate. Also fixing
it in the perf code would result in moving jump_label accounting logic to
perf code with all the ifdefs in case of JUMP_LABEL=n kernel. With this
patch all details are nicely hidden inside jump_label code.

Subject: perf: Do no try to schedule task events if there are none

perf_event_sched_in() shouldn't try to schedule task events if there
are none otherwise task's ctx->is_active will be set and will not be
cleared during sched_out. This will prevent newly added events from
being scheduled into the task context.

Fixes a boo-boo in commit 1d5f003f5a9 ("perf: Do not set task_ctx
pointer in cpuctx if there are no events in the context").

Subject: perf events: Fix ring_buffer_wakeup() brown paperbag bug

Commit 10c6db11 ("perf: Fix loss of notification with multi-event")
seems to unconditionally dereference event->rb in the wakeup handler,
this is wrong, there might not be a buffer attached.
