<id>f0fabf9c897327abd39018aefb5029aff8c7e133</id>
<content type='text'>
PowerPC hardware does not have a builtin latency filter (--ldlat) for
the "mem-load" event and perf_mem_events by default includes
"/ldlat=30/" which is causing a failure on PowerPC. Refactor the code to
support "perf mem/c2c" on PowerPC.

This patch depends on kernel side changes done my Madhavan:

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "A couple of weeks of fixes.

  There's one fix for an oops on Power9 machines with Open CAPI
  adapters.

  And a fix for probable memory corruption in some of the new NPU code,
  caught by smatch though and not seen in the wild.

  Plus a few other minor fixes.

  There's one non-fix which is the perf_regs change. That was sent
  during the merge window but I accidentally only merged the first of
  two patches in the series. It's been in linux-next so hopefully
  doesn't conflict with anything in acme's tree.

  Thanks to: Alexey Kardashevskiy, Andrew Donnellan, Breno Leitao,
  Christian Lamparter, Christophe Leroy, Dan Carpenter, Frederic Barrat,
  Greg Kurz, Jason A. Donenfeld, Madhavan Srinivasan"

perf on ARM requires CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS to be turned on to allow some
independance with respect to the ARM CPU being used. Add a test which
tries to locate the [vectors] page, created when CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS is
turned on to help asses the system's health.

<title>powerpc/perf: Update perf_regs structure to include MMCRA</title>

On each sample, Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA) content is
saved in pt_regs. MMCRA does not have a entry as-is in the pt_regs but
instead, MMCRA content is saved in the "dsisr" register of pt_regs.

Patch adds another entry to the perf_regs structure to include the
"MMCRA" printing which internally maps to the "dsisr" of pt_regs.

It also check for the MMCRA availability in the platform and present
value accordingly

mpe: This was the 2nd patch in a series with commit 333804dc3b7a
("powerpc/perf: Update perf_regs structure to include SIER") but I
accidentally only merged the 1st patch, so merge this one now.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Notable changes:

   - Mitigations for Spectre v2 on some Freescale (NXP) CPUs.

   - A large series adding support for pass-through of Nvidia V100 GPUs
     to guests on Power9.

   - Another large series to enable hardware assistance for TLB table
     walk on MPC8xx CPUs.

   - Some preparatory changes to our DMA code, to make way for further
     cleanups from Christoph.

   - Several fixes for our Transactional Memory handling discovered by
     fuzzing the signal return path.

   - Support for generating our system call table(s) from a text file
     like other architectures.

   - A fix to our page fault handler so that instead of generating a
     WARN_ON_ONCE, user accesses of kernel addresses instead print a
     ratelimited and appropriately scary warning.

   - A cosmetic change to make our unhandled page fault messages more
     similar to other arches and also more compact and informative.

   - Freescale updates from Scott:
       "Highlights include elimination of legacy clock bindings use from
        dts files, an 83xx watchdog handler, fixes to old dts interrupt
        errors, and some minor cleanup."

  And many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

Go over the tools/ files that are maintained in Arnaldo's tree and
fix common typos: half of them were in comments, the other half
in JSON files.

No change in functionality intended.

Committer notes:

This was split from a larger patch as there are code that is,
additionally, maintained outside the kernel tree, so to ease
cherry-picking and/or backporting, split this into multiple patches.

Just typos in comments, no need to backport, reducing the possibility of
possible backporting artifacts.
