So that we don't require that the kernel be configured first, and as we
don't use KERNELRELEASE at all in the -src-pkg targets, we need o add a
new wildcard for targets ending in src-pkg:
On a make mrproper'ed kernel we get this without this patch:

Perf report is demangling symbols but not annotate.
The former uses internal demangling via libbdf or libiberty. The latter
executes objdump which by default does not demangle symbols.
This patch adds the -C option to the objdump cmdline to enable symbol
demangling.

This patch adds the ability to specify an alternate directory to store the
buildid cache (buildids, copy of binaries). By default, it is hardcoded to
$HOME/.debug. This directory contains immutable data. The layout of the
directory is such that no conflicts in filenames are possible. A modification
in a file, yields a different buildid and thus a different location in the
subdir hierarchy.
You may want to put the buildid cache elsewhere because of disk space
limitation or simply to share the cache between users. It is also useful for
remote collect vs. local analysis of profiles.
This patch adds a new config option to the perfconfig file. Under the tag
'buildid', there is a dir option. For instance, if you have:
$ cat /etc/perfconfig
[buildid]
dir = /var/cache/perf-buildid
All buildids and binaries are be saved in the directory specified. The perf
record, buildid-list, buildid-cache, report, annotate, and archive commands
will it to pull information out.
The option can be set in the system-wide perfconfig file or in the
$HOME/.perfconfig file.

This patch adds a -C option to stat, record, top to designate a list of CPUs to
monitor. CPUs can be specified as a comma-separated list or ranges, no space
allowed.
Examples:
$ perf record -a -C0-1,4-7 sleep 1
$ perf top -C0-4
$ perf stat -a -C1,2,3,4 sleep 1
With perf record in per-thread mode with inherit mode on, samples are collected
only when the thread runs on the designated CPUs.
The -C option does not turn on system-wide mode automatically.

We need to set the long name to the name specified via, for instance,
'perf annotate --vmlinux /path/to/vmlinux', if not it will remain as
'[kernel.kallsyms]' and that will make annotate fail when passing this
as the vmlinux name in the call to objdump.
The way this is setup grew unwieldly and dso__load_vmlinux is the
function that should allocate space for the long name, with callers not
assuming that filenames should be allocated somehow by then (strdup,
dso__build_id_filename, etc).
For now this is the minimalistic patch, a proper fix for .36 will be
made.

Frederic reported that because swevents handling doesn't disable IRQs
anymore, we can get a recursion of perf_adjust_period(), once from
overflow handling and once from the tick.
If both call ->disable, we get a double hlist_del_rcu() and trigger
a LIST_POISON2 dereference.
Since we don't actually need to stop/start a swevent to re-programm
the hardware (lack of hardware to program), simply nop out these
callbacks for the swevent pmu.

When we use plain 'perf buildid-list' we use only what is in the buildid
table in the perf.data header. And those have absolute pathnames because
at 'perf record' time we used __perf_session__process_events and that
doesn't sets up the path shortening code in map__new() that happens if
symbol_conf.full_paths is false, the default.
On the other hand, when we use 'perf buildid-list --with-hits' we
process all the events using perf_session__process_events, adding
entries to the global DSO list _after_ removing the current directory
from the DSO name, for presentation purposes.
Because of that we end up having two entries in the DSO list when
recording events for binaries using relative pathnames.
Fix it minimally by setting symbol_conf.full_paths to true when marking
the DSOs with hits in 'perf buildid-list --with-hits', as used by 'perf
archive'
Right fix longer term is to shorten the path only at presentation time.
Will be done for 2.6.36.

event__process_task() doesn't propagate the comm copy on clone,

Progragate the per thread granularity to event__process_task for
pid resolution.

perf sched uses event__process_comm(), which means it can resolve
comms from:
- tasks that have exec'ed (kernel comm events)
- tasks that were running when perf record started the actual
recording (synthetized comm events)
But perf sched can't resolve the pids of tasks that were created
after the recording started.
To solve this, we need to inherit the comms on fork events using
event__process_task().
This fixes various unresolved pids in perf sched, easily visible
with:
perf sched record perf bench sched messaging

When we synthetize the existing running tasks though procfs,
we walk through every threads of a process, queuing one comm
events per tid.
But then on report time, event__process_comm() only creates and
sets the comm on a per process granularity. This is the right
thing for comm events that came from the kernel, as they are
only created on exec. Sub-threads then inherit their comm
from fork events. But that doesn't work with our synthetized
comm events taken from procfs informations as the per thread
granularity is done on comm events directly there.
Hence we need event__process_comm() to work with the tid rather
than the pid. It won't change anything for comm events coming
from the kernel but this will fix the synthetized ones.

The transactional API patch between the generic and model-specific
code introduced several important bugs with event scheduling, at
least on X86. If you had pinned events, e.g., watchdog, and were
over-committing the PMU, you would get bogus counts. The bug was
showing up on Intel CPU because events would move around more
often that on AMD. But the problem also existed on AMD, though
harder to expose.
The issues were:
- group_sched_in() was missing a cancel_txn() in the error path
- cpuc->n_added was not properly maintained, leading to missing
actions in hw_perf_enable(), i.e., n_running being 0. You cannot
update n_added until you know the transaction has succeeded. In
case of failed transaction n_added was not adjusted back.
- in case of failed transactions, event_sched_out() was called
and eventually invoked x86_disable_event() to touch the HW reg.
But with transactions, on X86, event_sched_in() does not touch
HW registers, it simply collects events into a list. Thus, you
could end up calling x86_disable_event() on a counter which
did not correspond to the current event when idx != -1.
The patch modifies the generic and X86 code to avoid all those problems.
First, we keep track of the number of events added last. In case the
transaction fails, we substract them from n_added. This approach is
necessary (as opposed to delaying updates to n_added) because not all
event updates use the transaction API, e.g., single events.
Second, we encapsulate the event_sched_in() and event_sched_out() in
group_sched_in() inside the transaction. That makes the operations
symmetrical and you can also detect that you are inside a transaction
and skip the HW reg access by checking cpuc->group_flag.
With this patch, you can now overcommit the PMU even with pinned
system-wide events present and still get valid counts.

Group siblings don't pin each-other or the parent, so when we destroy
events we must make sure to clean up all cross referencing pointers.
In particular, for destruction of a group leader we must be able to
find all its siblings and remove their reference to it.
This means that detaching an event from its context must not detach it
from the group, otherwise we can end up failing to clear all pointers.
Solve this by clearly separating the attachment to a context and
attachment to a group, and keep the group composed until we destroy
the events.

* 'slub/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/slab-2.6:
SLUB: Allow full duplication of kmalloc array for 390
slub: move kmem_cache_node into it's own cacheline
* 'perf-fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:

perf symbols: Add the build id cache to the vmlinux path
perf tui: Reset use_browser if stdout is not a tty

ring-buffer: Reset "real_end" when page is filled
This partially reverts commit 4ec37de89d
("[IA64] Fix build breakage"), since the commit that made it necessary
got reverted earlier (see commit 35926ff5fb, 'Revert "cpusets:
randomize node rotor used in cpuset_mem_spread_node()"')
Even if we ever re-introduce this, there is no reason to make
__node_random be some architecture-specific function.

If there's only one CPU online when disable_nonboot_cpus() is called,
the error variable will not be initialized and that may lead to
erroneous behavior. Fix this issue by initializing error in
disable_nonboot_cpus() as appropriate.

* 'fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kyle/parisc-2.6:

This reverts commit 0ac0c0d0f8, which
caused cross-architecture build problems for all the wrong reasons.
IA64 already added its own version of __node_random(), but the fact is,
there is nothing architectural about the function, and the original
commit was just badly done. Revert it, since no fix is forthcoming.

Based on the generic implementation of kmap_atomic and kunmap_atomic,
we should call pagefault_disable and pagefault_enable in our PA8000
implementation.
The define for kmap_atomic_prot was also missing, and I updated
kmap_atomic_pfn to use the generic implementation because of the
change to kmap_atomic.
I believe that this change is needed to fix the fork copy-on-write
bug.

The EXTR, DEP and DEPI macros are unnecessary. There are PA 1.X
pneumonics available with the same functionality, and the DEP and DEPI
macros conflict with assembler pneumonics.

1) Gate immediately and save a branch.
2) Fix off by one error in checking entry number.
3) Use sr7 instead of sr3 in error return path as sr3 might not
contain correct value.
4) Enable locking on UP systems to prevent incorrect operation of
the cas_action critical region on page faults.
Tested on several systems, including UP c3750 with 2.6.33.2 kernel.

As explained in commit 1c0fe6e3bd, we want to call the architecture independent
oom killer when getting an unexplained OOM from handle_mm_fault, rather than
simply killing current.
