tools headers kvm: Sync ARM UAPI headers with the kernel sources

2018-05-07T18:23:46+00:00

To sync with the changes made in 85bd0ba1ff98 ("arm/arm64: KVM: Add PSCI
version selection API"), that do not cause any changes in the tools,
just to silence the build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h'
  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h'

tools headers: Sync x86 cpufeatures.h with the kernel sources

2018-05-07T18:23:45+00:00

The 912413057395 ("x86/cpufeatures: Enumerate cldemote instruction")
doesn't requires changes in the tools, just copy it to silence this

tools/headers: Synchronize kernel ABI headers, v4.17-rc1

2018-04-17T12:47:39+00:00

Sync the following tooling headers with the latest kernel version:

  tools/arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
    - New ABI: KVM_REG_ARM_*

  tools/arch/x86/include/asm/required-features.h
    - Removal of NEED_LA57 dependency

  tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
    - New KVM ABI: KVM_SYNC_X86_*

  tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h
    - New ABI: MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE flag

  tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
    - New ABI: BPF_F_SEQ_NUMBER functions

  tools/include/uapi/linux/if_link.h
    - New ABI: IFLA tun and rmnet support

  tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h
    - New ABI: hyperv eventfd and CONN_ID_MASK support plus header cleanups

  tools/include/uapi/sound/asound.h
    - New ABI: SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT_FIRST PCM format specifier

  tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
    - The x86 system call table description changed due to the ptregs changes and the renames, in:

	d5a00528b58c: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Rename struct pt_regs-based sys_*() to __x64_sys_*()
	5ac9efa3c50d: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Clean up compat syscall stub naming convention
	ebeb8c82ffaf: syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling for IA32_EMULATION and x32

Also fix the x86 syscall table warning:

  -Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'
  +Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'

None of these changes impact existing tooling code, so we only have to copy the kernel version.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.17-20180403' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

2018-04-04T05:23:52+00:00

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Show only failing syscalls with 'perf trace --failure' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

	e.g: See what 'openat' syscalls are failing:

  # perf trace --failure -e openat
   762.323 ( 0.007 ms): VideoCapture/4566 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /dev/video2) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
   
   790.228 ( 0.008 ms): VideoCapture/4566 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /dev/video63) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
  ^C#

- Show information about the event (freq, nr_samples, total period/nr_events) in
  the annotate --tui and --stdio2 'perf annotate' output, similar to the
  first line in the 'perf report --tui', but just for the samples for a
  the annotated symbol (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Introduce 'perf version --build-options' to show what features were
  linked, aliased as well as a shorter 'perf -vv' (Jin Yao)

- Add a "dso_size" sort order (Kim Phillips)

- Remove redundant ')' in the tracepoint output in 'perf trace' (Changbin Du)

- Synchronize x86's cpufeatures.h, no effect on toolss (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Merge tag 'arch-removal' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic

2018-04-03T03:20:12+00:00

Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
 "This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
  m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
  drivers.

  I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
  ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
  unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
  respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
  but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.

  In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
  different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
  charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
  ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
  CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
  seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
  used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
  contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
  maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.

  [ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
    generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
    microarchitecture and a software ecosystem"   - Linus ]

  The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
  https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
  marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I
  made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile,
  mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old
  kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel
  releases.

  After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
  gcc support:

   - unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
     maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
     in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.

   - openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing
     their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first
     place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some
     degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1.
     Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation
     will be similar

  [ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc
    since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum  - Linus ]"

tools headers: Synchronize x86's cpufeatures.h

2018-04-02T10:57:37+00:00

Due to these commits:

  1da961d72ab0 ("x86/cpufeatures: Add Intel Total Memory Encryption cpufeature")
  7958b2246fad ("x86/cpufeatures: Add Intel PCONFIG cpufeature")

To silence this perf build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h'

Nothing in those csets requires changes in tools/perf/, so just
sync it to silence the build.

arch: remove tile port

2018-03-16T09:56:03+00:00

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.

arch: remove score port

2018-03-09T22:20:01+00:00

The Sunplus S+core architecture was added in 2009 by Chen Liqin,
who has been co-maintaining it with Lennox Wu 
since then, but after they both left the company, nobody else has shown
any interest in the port and it has seen almost no activity other than
tree-wide changes.

The gcc port was removed a few years ago due to the inactivity.

While the sunplus website still advertises products with unspecified
RISC cores that might be S+core based, it's very clear that the Linux
port is completely abandoned at this point.

This removes all files related to the architecture.

arch: remove m32r port

2018-03-09T22:20:00+00:00

The Mitsubishi/Renesas m32r architecture has been around for many years,
but the Linux port has been obsolete for a very long time as well, with
the last significant updates done for linux-2.6.14.

While some m32r microcontrollers are still being marketed by Renesas,
those are apparently no longer possible to support, mainly due to the
lack of an external memory interface.

Hirokazu Takata was the maintainer until the architecture got marked
Orphaned in 2014.

arch: remove frv port

2018-03-09T22:19:58+00:00

The Fujitsu FRV kernel port has been around for a long time, but has not
seen regular updates in several years and instead was marked 'Orphaned'
in 2016 by long-time maintainer David Howells.

The SoC product line apparently is apparently still around in the form
of the Socionext Milbeaut image processor, but this one no longer uses
the FRV CPU cores.

This removes all FRV specific files from the kernel.
