Before merging all different stack tracers the call traces printed had
an indicator if an entry can be considered reliable or not.
Unreliable entries were put in braces, reliable not. Currently all
lines contain these extra braces.
This patch restores the old behaviour by adding an extra "reliable"
parameter to the callback functions. Only show_trace makes currently
use of it.

Remove hardware sampler support from oprofile module.
The oprofile user space utilty has been switched to use the kernel
perf interface, for which we also provide hardware sampling support.
In addition the hardware sampling support is also slightly broken: it
supports only 16 bits for the pid and therefore would generate wrong
results on machines which have a pid >64k.
Also the pt_regs structure which was passed to oprofile common code
cannot necessarily be used to generate sane backtraces, since the
task(s) in question may run while the samples are fed to oprofile.
So the result would be more or less random.
However given that the only user space tools switched to the perf
interface already four years ago the hardware sampler code seems to be
unused code, and therefore it should be reasonable to remove it.
The timer based oprofile support continues to work.

We have four different stack tracers of which three had bugs. So it's
time to merge them to a single stack tracer which allows to specify a
call back function which will be called for each step.
This patch changes behavior a bit:
- the "nosched" and "in_sched_functions" check within
save_stack_trace_tsk did work only for the last stack frame within a
context. Now it considers the check for each stack frame like it
should.
- both the oprofile variant and the perf_events variant did save a
return address twice if a zero back chain was detected, which
indicates an interrupt frame. The new dump_trace function will call
the oprofile and perf_events backends with the psw address that is
contained within the corresponding pt_regs structure instead.
- the original show_trace and save_context_stack functions did already
use the psw address of the pt_regs structure if a zero back chain
was detected. However now we ignore the psw address if it is a user
space address. After all we trace the kernel stack and not the user
space stack. This way we also get rid of the garbage user space
address in case of warnings and / or panic call traces.
So this should make life easier since now there is only one stack
tracer left which we can break.

git commit dc7ee00d47 ("s390: lowcore stack pointer offsets")
introduced a regression in regard to s390_backtrace(). The stack
pointer for the asynchronous stack in the lowcore now has an
additional offset applied. This offset needs to be taken into account
in the calculation for the low and high address for the stack.
This bug was already partially fixed with commit 9cc5c206d9
("s390/dumpstack: fix address ranges for asynchronous and panic
stack"). This patch fixes it also for the oprofile code.

distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.
The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e58 ("s390: add 31 bit warning

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.
At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so
the macro is removed too.
The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations
are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86
arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global
register that may be set to the per cpu base.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++

Now that irq sum accounting for /proc/stat's "intr" line works again we
have the oddity that the sum field (first field) contains only the sum
of the second (external irqs) and third field (I/O interrupts).
The reason for that is that these two fields are already sums of all other
fields. So if we would sum up everything we would count every interrupt
twice.
This is broken since the split interrupt accounting was merged two years
ago: 052ff461c8 "[S390] irq: have detailed
statistics for interrupt types".
To fix this remove the split interrupt fields from /proc/stat's "intr"
line again and only have them in /proc/interrupts.
This restores the old behaviour, seems to be the only sane fix and mimics
a behaviour from other architectures where /proc/interrupts also contains
more than /proc/stat's "intr" line does.

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

To make the code a bit more obvious pass a struct instead so the called

cpu address. The cpu address field however is named "subcode" since
some external interrupt sources do not pass a cpu address but a

With this patch the OProfile Basic Mode Sampling support for System z
is enhanced with a counter file system. That way hardware sampling
can be configured using the user space tools with only little
modifications.
With the patch by default new cpu_types (s390/z10, s390/z196) are
returned in order to indicate that we are running a CPU which provides
the hardware sampling facility. Existing user space tools will
complain about an unknown cpu type. In order to be compatible with
existing user space tools the `cpu_type' module parameter has been
added. Setting the parameter to `timer' will force the module to
return `timer' as cpu_type. The module will still try to use hardware
sampling if available and the hwsampling virtual filesystem will be
also be available for configuration. So this has a different effect
than using the generic oprofile module parameter `timer=1'.
If the basic mode sampling is enabled on the machine and the
cpu_type=timer parameter is not used the kernel module will provide
the following virtual filesystem:
/dev/oprofile/0/enabled
/dev/oprofile/0/event
/dev/oprofile/0/count
/dev/oprofile/0/unit_mask
/dev/oprofile/0/kernel
/dev/oprofile/0/user
In the counter file system only the values of 'enabled', 'count',
'kernel', and 'user' are evaluated by the kernel module. Everything
else must contain fixed values.
The 'event' value only supports a single event - HWSAMPLING with value
0.
The 'count' value specifies the hardware sampling rate as it is passed
to the CPU measurement facility.
The 'kernel' and 'user' flags can now be used to filter for samples
when using hardware sampling.
Additionally also the following file will be created:
/dev/oprofile/timer/enabled
This will always be the inverted value of /dev/oprofile/0/enabled. 0
is not accepted without hardware sampling.

The hardware sample cpu hotplug notifier always returns NOTIFY_BAD.
That will prevent cpu hotplug if the machine is enabled for hardware
sampling even if it is not used. Fix the cpu hotplug notifier and
allow cpu hotplug if hardware sampling is unused.

Merge irq.c and s390_ext.c into irq.c. That way all external interrupt
related functions are together.

The counter for requested interrupts should be incremented if the
program-request-alert bit is set and not the invalid-address-entry
bit.

oprofile_min_interval and oprofile_max_interval are unsigned, checking
for negative values doesn't work. Change hwsampler_query_min_interval
and hwsampler_query_max_interval to return an unsigned long and
check for a zero value instead.
