b37f1dd0f5 mm: introduce __GFP_MEMALLOC to allow access to emergency reserves
__GFP_MEMALLOC will allow the allocation to disregard the watermarks, much
like PF_MEMALLOC.  It allows one to pass along the memalloc state in
object related allocation flags as opposed to task related flags, such as
sk->sk_allocation.  This removes the need for ALLOC_PFMEMALLOC as callers
using __GFP_MEMALLOC can get the ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK flag which is now
enough to identify allocations related to page reclaim.

e6dab5ffab perf/trace: Add ability to set a target task for events
A few events are interesting not only for a current task.
For example, sched_stat_* events are interesting for a task
which wakes up. For this reason, it will be good if such
events will be delivered to a target task too.

Now a target task can be set by using __perf_task().

The original idea and a draft patch belongs to Peter Zijlstra.

I need these events for profiling sleep times. sched_switch is used for
getting callchains and sched_stat_* is used for getting time periods.
These events are combined in user space, then it can be analyzed by
perf tools.

bd7bdd43dc workqueue: factor out worker_pool from global_cwq
Move worklist and all worker management fields from global_cwq into
the new struct worker_pool.  worker_pool points back to the containing
gcwq.  worker and cpu_workqueue_struct are updated to point to
worker_pool instead of gcwq too.

This change is mechanical and doesn't introduce any functional
difference other than rearranging of fields and an added level of
indirection in some places.  This is to prepare for multiple pools per
gcwq.

b102f1d0f1 tracing/kvm: Use __print_hex() for kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint
The kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint used __print_insn()
for printing its instructions. However it makes the
format of the event hard to parse as it reveals TP
internals.

Fortunately, kernel provides __print_hex for almost
same purpose, we can use it instead of open coding
it. The user-space can be changed to parse it later.

That means raw kernel tracing will not be affected
by this change:

e7b52ffd45 x86/flush_tlb: try flush_tlb_single one by one in flush_tlb_range
x86 has no flush_tlb_range support in instruction level. Currently the
flush_tlb_range just implemented by flushing all page table. That is not
the best solution for all scenarios. In fact, if we just use 'invlpg' to
flush few lines from TLB, we can get the performance gain from later
remain TLB lines accessing.

But the 'invlpg' instruction costs much of time. Its execution time can
compete with cr3 rewriting, and even a bit more on SNB CPU.

So, on a 512 4KB TLB entries CPU, the balance points is at:
	(512 - X) * 100ns(assumed TLB refill cost) =
		X(TLB flush entries) * 100ns(assumed invlpg cost)

Here, X is 256, that is 1/2 of 512 entries.

But with the mysterious CPU pre-fetcher and page miss handler Unit, the
assumed TLB refill cost is far lower then 100ns in sequential access. And
2 HT siblings in one core makes the memory access more faster if they are
accessing the same memory. So, in the patch, I just do the change when
the target entries is less than 1/16 of whole active tlb entries.
Actually, I have no data support for the percentage '1/16', so any
suggestions are welcomed.

As to hugetlb, guess due to smaller page table, and smaller active TLB
entries, I didn't see benefit via my benchmark, so no optimizing now.

My micro benchmark show in ideal scenarios, the performance improves 70
percent in reading. And in worst scenario, the reading/writing
performance is similar with unpatched 3.4-rc4 kernel.

a1e4ccb990 KVM: Introduce __KVM_HAVE_IRQ_LINE
This is a preparatory patch for the KVM/ARM implementation. KVM/ARM will use
the KVM_IRQ_LINE ioctl, which is currently conditional on
__KVM_HAVE_IOAPIC, but ARM obviously doesn't have any IOAPIC support and we
need a separate define.

fd4b352687 rcu: Update RCU_FAST_NO_HZ tracing for lazy callbacks
In the current code, a short dyntick-idle interval (where there is
at least one non-lazy callback on the CPU) and a long dyntick-idle
interval (where there are only lazy callbacks on the CPU) are traced
identically, which can be less than helpful.  This commit therefore
emits different event traces in these two cases.

There is little motiviation for reclaim_mode_t once RECLAIM_MODE_[A]SYNC
and lumpy reclaim have been removed.  This patch gets rid of
reclaim_mode_t as well and improves the documentation about what
reclaim/compaction is and when it is triggered.

41ac1999c3 mm: vmscan: do not stall on writeback during memory compaction
This patch stops reclaim/compaction entering sync reclaim as this was
only intended for lumpy reclaim and an oversight.  Page migration has
its own logic for stalling on writeback pages if necessary and memory
compaction is already using it.

Waiting on page writeback is bad for a number of reasons but the primary
one is that waiting on writeback to a slow device like USB can take a
considerable length of time.  Page reclaim instead uses
wait_iff_congested() to throttle if too many dirty pages are being
scanned.

c53919adc0 mm: vmscan: remove lumpy reclaim
This series removes lumpy reclaim and some stalling logic that was
unintentionally being used by memory compaction.  The end result is that
stalling on dirty pages during page reclaim now depends on
wait_iff_congested().

Four kernels were compared

  3.3.0     vanilla
  3.4.0-rc2 vanilla
  3.4.0-rc2 lumpyremove-v2 is patch one from this series
  3.4.0-rc2 nosync-v2r3 is the full series

Removing lumpy reclaim saves almost 900 bytes of text whereas the full
series removes 1200 bytes.

     text     data      bss       dec     hex  filename
  6740375  1927944  2260992  10929311  a6c49f  vmlinux-3.4.0-rc2-vanilla

  6739159  1927944  2260992  10928095  a6bfdf  vmlinux-3.4.0-rc2-nosync-v2

There are behaviour changes in the series and so tests were run with
monitoring of ftrace events.  This disrupts results so the performance
results are distorted but the new behaviour should be clearer.

fs-mark running in a threaded configuration showed little of interest as
it did not push reclaim aggressively

ftrace showed that there was no stalling on writeback or pages submitted
for IO from reclaim context.

postmark was similar and while it was more interesting, it also did not
push reclaim heavily.

It looks like here that the full series regresses performance but as
ftrace showed no usage of wait_iff_congested() or sync reclaim I am
assuming it's a disruption due to monitoring.  Other data such as memory
usage, page IO, swap IO all looked similar.

Running a benchmark with a plain DD showed nothing very interesting.
The full series stalled in wait_iff_congested() slightly less but stall
times on vanilla kernels were marginal.

Running a benchmark that hammered on file-backed mappings showed stalls
due to congestion but not in sync writebacks

Reclaim statistics are not radically changed.  The stall times in kswapd
are massive but it is clear that it is due to calls to congestion_wait()
and that is almost certainly the call in balance_pgdat().  Otherwise
stalls due to dirty pages are non-existant.

I ran a benchmark that stressed high-order allocation.  This is very
artifical load but was used in the past to evaluate lumpy reclaim and
compaction.  Generally I look at allocation success rates and latency
figures.

Success rates are completely hosed for 3.4-rc2 which is almost certainly
due to commit fe2c2a1066 ("vmscan: reclaim at order 0 when compaction
is enabled").  I expected this would happen for kswapd and impair
allocation success rates (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/25/166) but I did
not anticipate this much a difference: 80% less scanning, 37% less
reclaim by kswapd

In comparison, reclaim/compaction is not aggressive and gives up easily
which is the intended behaviour.  hugetlbfs uses __GFP_REPEAT and would
be much more aggressive about reclaim/compaction than THP allocations
are.  The stress test above is allocating like neither THP or hugetlbfs
but is much closer to THP.

Mainline is now impaired in terms of high order allocation under heavy
load although I do not know to what degree as I did not test with
__GFP_REPEAT.  Keep this in mind for bugs related to hugepage pool
resizing, THP allocation and high order atomic allocation failures from
network devices.

In terms of congestion throttling, I see the following for this test

  FTrace Reclaim Statistics: congestion_wait

  KSwapd number conditional waited             88514        197        332        542

  KSwapd full   conditional waited                49          0          0          0

The "conditional waited" times are the most interesting as this is
directly impacted by the number of dirty pages encountered during scan.
As lumpy reclaim is no longer scanning contiguous ranges, it is finding
fewer dirty pages.  This brings wait times from about 5 seconds to 0.
kswapd itself is still calling congestion_wait() so it'll still stall but
it's a lot less.

In terms of the type of IO we were doing, I see this

  FTrace Reclaim Statistics: mm_vmscan_writepage
  Direct writes anon  sync                         0          0          0          0

  KSwapd writes file  sync                         0          0          0          0
  KSwapd writes file  async                   822629          0          0          0

In 3.2, kswapd was doing a bunch of async writes of pages but
reclaim/compaction was never reaching a point where it was doing sync
IO.  This does not guarantee that reclaim/compaction was not calling
wait_on_page_writeback() but I would consider it unlikely.  It indicates
that merging patches 2 and 3 to stop reclaim/compaction calling
wait_on_page_writeback() should be safe.

This patch:

Lumpy reclaim had a purpose but in the mind of some, it was to kick the
system so hard it trashed.  For others the purpose was to complicate
vmscan.c.  Over time it was giving softer shoes and a nicer attitude but
memory compaction needs to step up and replace it so this patch sends
lumpy reclaim to the farm.

The tracepoint format changes for isolating LRU pages with this patch
applied.  Furthermore reclaim/compaction can no longer queue dirty pages
in pageout() if the underlying BDI is congested.  Lumpy reclaim used
this logic and reclaim/compaction was using it in error.

e709ffd616 mm: remove swap token code
The swap token code no longer fits in with the current VM model.  It
does not play well with cgroups or the better NUMA placement code in
development, since we have only one swap token globally.

It also has the potential to mess with scalability of the system, by
increasing the number of non-reclaimable pages on the active and
inactive anon LRU lists.

Last but not least, the swap token code has been broken for a year
without complaints, as reported by Konstantin Khlebnikov.  This suggests
we no longer have much use for it.

The days of sub-1G memory systems with heavy use of swap are over.  If
we ever need thrashing reducing code in the future, we will have to
implement something that does scale.

644473e9c6 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace enhancements from Eric Biederman:
 "This is a course correction for the user namespace, so that we can
  reach an inexpensive, maintainable, and reasonably complete
  implementation.

  Highlights:
   - Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and
     code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe.

   - Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the
     config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable
     user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission
     checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe.

   - All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial
     user namespace before they are processed.  Removing the need to add
     an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared
     uids remains the same.

   - With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or
     better than it is today.

   - For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or
     operationally with the user namespace enabled.

   - The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1
     billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code
     enabled.  This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to
     164ns per stat operation).

   - (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value.
     Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially
     anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause
     entertaining failures in userspace.

   - If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails.
     I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I
     could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and
     handle the case where setuid fails.

   - If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which
     we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid.  The LFS
     experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be
     better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I
     can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we
     can't map.

   - Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it
     safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities.

  My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core
  kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

2e341ca686 Sound updates for 3.5-rc1
This is the first big chunk for 3.5 merges of sound stuff.
 There are a few big changes in different areas.  First off, the
 streaming logic of USB-audio endpoints has been largely rewritten
 for the better support of "implicit feedback".  If anything about USB
 got broken, this change has to be checked.
 
 For HD-audio, the resume procedure was changed; instead of delaying
 the resume of the hardware until the first use, now waking up immediately
 at resume.  This is for buggy BIOS.
 
 For ASoC, dynamic PCM support and the improved support for digital links
 between off-SoC devices are major framework changes.
 
 Some highlights are below:
 
 * HD-audio
 - Avoid the accesses of invalid pin-control bits that may stall the codec
 - V-ref setup cleanups
 - Fix the races in power-saving code
 - Fix the races in codec cache hashes and connection lists
 - Split some common codes for BIOS auto-parser to hda_auto_parser.c
 - Changed the PM resume code to wake up immediately for buggy BIOS
 - Creative SoundCore3D support
 - Add Conexant CX20751/2/3/4 codec support
 
 * ASoC
 - Dynamic PCM support, allowing support for SoCs with internal routing
   through components with tight sequencing and formatting constraints
   within their internal paths or where there are multiple components
   connected with CPU managed DMA controllers inside the SoC.
 - Greatly improved support for direct digital links between off-SoC
   devices, providing a much simpler way of connecting things like digital
   basebands to CODECs.
 - Much more fine grained and robust locking, cleaning up some of the
   confusion that crept in with multi-component.
 - CPU support for nVidia Tegra 30 I2S and audio hub controllers and
   ST-Ericsson MSP I2S controolers
 - New CODEC drivers for Cirrus CS42L52, LAPIS Semiconductor ML26124, Texas
   Instruments LM49453.
 - Some regmap changes needed by the Tegra I2S driver.
 - mc13783 audio support.
 
 * Misc
 - Rewrite with module_pci_driver()
 - Xonar DGX support for snd-oxygen
 - Improvement of packet handling in snd-firewire driver
 - New USB-endpoint streaming logic
 - Enhanced M-audio FTU quirks and relevant cleanups
 - Increment the support of OSS devices to 256
 - snd-aloop accuracy improvement
 
 There are a few more pending changes for 3.5, but they will be
 sent slightly later as partly depending on the changes of DRM.

fd2cbd4dfa jbd: Write journal superblock with WRITE_FUA after checkpointing
If journal superblock is written only in disk's caches and other transaction
starts reusing space of the transaction cleaned from the log, it can happen
blocks of a new transaction reach the disk before journal superblock. When
power failure happens in such case, subsequent journal replay would still try
to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already
overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when
updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update
in-memory information only after that.

21e52e1566 rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ handle timer migration
The current RCU_FAST_NO_HZ assumes that timers do not migrate unless a
CPU goes offline, in which case it assumes that the CPU will have to come
out of dyntick-idle mode (cancelling the timer) in order to go offline.
This is important because when RCU_FAST_NO_HZ permits a CPU to enter
dyntick-idle mode despite having RCU callbacks pending, it posts a timer
on that CPU to force a wakeup on that CPU.  This wakeup ensures that the
CPU will eventually handle the end of the grace period, including invoking
its RCU callbacks.

However, Pascal Chapperon's test setup shows that the timer handler
rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() really does get invoked in some cases.  This is
problematic because this can cause the CPU that entered dyntick-idle
mode despite still having RCU callbacks pending to remain in
dyntick-idle mode indefinitely, which means that its RCU callbacks might
never be invoked.  This situation can result in grace-period delays or
even system hangs, which matches Pascal's observations of slow boot-up
and shutdown (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/5/142).  See also the bugzilla:

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806548

This commit therefore causes the "should never be invoked" timer handler
rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() to use smp_call_function_single() to wake up
the CPU for which the timer was intended, allowing that CPU to invoke
its RCU callbacks in a timely manner.

cc1676d917 writeback: Move requeueing when I_SYNC set to writeback_sb_inodes()
When writeback_single_inode() is called on inode which has I_SYNC already
set while doing WB_SYNC_NONE, inode is moved to b_more_io list. However
this makes sense only if the caller is flusher thread. For other callers of
writeback_single_inode() it doesn't really make sense and may be even wrong
- flusher thread may be doing WB_SYNC_ALL writeback in parallel.

So we move requeueing from writeback_single_inode() to writeback_sb_inodes().

2db938bee3 jbd: Refine commit writeout logic
Currently we write out all journal buffers in WRITE_SYNC mode. This improves
performance for fsync heavy workloads but hinders performance when writes
are mostly asynchronous, most noticably it slows down readers and users
complain about slow desktop response etc.

So submit writes as asynchronous in the normal case and only submit writes as
WRITE_SYNC if we detect someone is waiting for current transaction commit.

I've gathered some numbers to back this change. The first is the read latency
test. It measures time to read 1 MB after several seconds of sleeping in
presence of streaming writes.

Top 10 times (out of 90) in us:
Before		After
2131586		697473
1709932		557487
1564598		535642
1480462		347573
1478579		323153
1408496		222181
1388960		181273
1329565		181070
1252486		172832
1223265		172278

Average:
619377		82180

So the improvement in both maximum and average latency is massive.

I've measured fsync throughput by:
fs_mark -n 100 -t 1 -s 16384 -d /mnt/fsync/ -S 1 -L 4

in presence of streaming reader. The numbers (fsyncs/s) are:
Before		After
9.9		6.3
6.8		6.0
6.3		6.2
5.8		6.1

So fsync performance seems unharmed by this change.

6308191f6f tracing, sched, vfs: Fix 'old_pid' usage in trace_sched_process_exec()
1. TRACE_EVENT(sched_process_exec) forgets to actually use the
   old pid argument, it sets ->old_pid = p->pid.

2. search_binary_handler() uses the wrong pid number. tracepoint
   needs the global pid_t from the root namespace, while old_pid
   is the virtual pid number as it seen by the tracer/parent.

With this patch we have two pid_t's in search_binary_handler(),
not really nice. Perhaps we should switch to "struct pid*", but
in this case it would be better to cleanup the current code
first and move the "depth == 0" code outside.

Pull btrfs fixes and features from Chris Mason:
 "We've merged in the error handling patches from SuSE.  These are
  already shipping in the sles kernel, and they give btrfs the ability
  to abort transactions and go readonly on errors.  It involves a lot of
  churn as they clarify BUG_ONs, and remove the ones we now properly
  deal with.

  Josef reworked the way our metadata interacts with the page cache.
  page->private now points to the btrfs extent_buffer object, which
  makes everything faster.  He changed it so we write an whole extent
  buffer at a time instead of allowing individual pages to go down,,
  which will be important for the raid5/6 code (for the 3.5 merge
  window ;)

  Josef also made us more aggressive about dropping pages for metadata
  blocks that were freed due to COW.  Overall, our metadata caching is
  much faster now.

  We've integrated my patch for metadata bigger than the page size.
  This allows metadata blocks up to 64KB in size.  In practice 16K and
  32K seem to work best.  For workloads with lots of metadata, this cuts
  down the size of the extent allocation tree dramatically and fragments
  much less.

  Scrub was updated to support the larger block sizes, which ended up
  being a fairly large change (thanks Stefan Behrens).

  We also have an assortment of fixes and updates, especially to the
  balancing code (Ilya Dryomov), the back ref walker (Jan Schmidt) and
  the defragging code (Liu Bo)."

Fixed up trivial conflicts in fs/btrfs/scrub.c that were just due to
removal of the second argument to k[un]map_atomic() in commit
7ac687d9e0.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs: (75 commits)
  Btrfs: update the checks for mixed block groups with big metadata blocks

69e1aaddd6 Ext4 commits for 3.3 merge window; mostly cleanups and bug fixes
The changes to export dirty_writeback_interval are from Artem's s_dirt
 cleanup patch series.  The same is true of the change to remove the
 s_dirt helper functions which never got used by anyone in-tree.  I've
 run these changes by Al Viro, and am carrying them so that Artem can
 more easily fix up the rest of the file systems during the next merge
 window.  (Originally we had hopped to remove the use of s_dirt from
 ext4 during this merge window, but his patches had some bugs, so I
 ultimately ended dropping them from the ext4 tree.)

250f6715a4 The following text was taken from the original review request:
"[RFC PATCH 0/2] audit of linux/device.h users in include/*"
 		https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/4/159
 --
 
 Nearly every subsystem has some kind of header with a proto like:
 
 	void foo(struct device *dev);
 
 and yet there is no reason for most of these guys to care about the
 sub fields within the device struct.  This allows us to significantly
 reduce the scope of headers including headers.  For this instance, a
 reduction of about 40% is achieved by replacing the include with the
 simple fact that the device is some kind of a struct.
 
 Unlike the much larger module.h cleanup, this one is simply two
 commits.  One to fix the implicit <linux/device.h> users, and then
 one to delete the device.h includes from the linux/include/ dir
 wherever possible.

f63d395d47 NFS client updates for Linux 3.4
New features include:
 - Add NFS client support for containers.
   This should enable most of the necessary functionality, including
   lockd support, and support for rpc.statd, NFSv4 idmapper and
   RPCSEC_GSS upcalls into the correct network namespace from
   which the mount system call was issued.
 - NFSv4 idmapper scalability improvements
   Base the idmapper cache on the keyring interface to allow concurrent
   access to idmapper entries. Start the process of migrating users from
   the single-threaded daemon-based approach to the multi-threaded
   request-key based approach.
 - NFSv4.1 implementation id.
   Allows the NFSv4.1 client and server to mutually identify each other
   for logging and debugging purposes.
 - Support the 'vers=4.1' mount option for mounting NFSv4.1 instead of
   having to use the more counterintuitive 'vers=4,minorversion=1'.
 - SUNRPC tracepoints.
   Start the process of adding tracepoints in order to improve debugging
   of the RPC layer.
 - pNFS object layout support for autologin.
 
 Important bugfixes include:
 - Fix a bug in rpc_wake_up/rpc_wake_up_status that caused them to fail
   to wake up all tasks when applied to priority waitqueues.
 - Ensure that we handle read delegations correctly, when we try to
   truncate a file.
 - A number of fixes for NFSv4 state manager loops (mostly to do with
   delegation recovery).

9c2b957db1 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar:

 - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and
   the tooling side, on CPUs that support it.  (modern x86 Intel CPUs
   with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.)

   This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for
   branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from
   regular, function histogram centric profiles.

   The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result
   looks like this in perf report:

	$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy

	$ perf report -b --sort=symbol
	    52.34%  [.] main                   [.] f1
	    24.04%  [.] f1                     [.] f3
	    23.60%  [.] f1                     [.] f2
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn    [k] _IO_file_overflow
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] strchrnul
	     0.01%  [k] __printf               [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal
	     0.01%  [k] main                   [k] __printf

   This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest
   percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e.  the most likely taken
   branches in the system.  "branches" can also include function calls
   and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the
   instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system
   calls, traps, interrupts, etc.

   This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI
   support in perf report.

 - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies.
   It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter
   you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other
   improvements.

 - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf
   stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs:

	perf top -p 21483,21485
	perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd
	perf record -p 21483,21485

 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf
   report, etc.  For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the
   tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc.

 - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the
   factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h
   generic facility:

	struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE;

	...

	if (static_key_false(&key))
	        do unlikely code
	else
	        do likely code

	...
	static_key_slow_inc();
	...
	static_key_slow_inc();
	...

   The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as
   little impact to the likely code path as possible.  the
   static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching.

   This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to
   micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key
   usage and fast/slow cost patterns.

 - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support.

 - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's
   smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more
   smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows
   better, etc.

 - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes',
   and a corner case bugfix.

 - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk).

 - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space
   self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any
   system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side.

 - 'perf bench' improvements

 - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made
   these features possible.  And, as usual this list is incomplete as
   there were also lots of other improvements
