Mathieu Desnoyers reported that the STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD macro
wasn't working with the lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode() function in
the lttng-modules code.
Usually the relocation created by STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD creates a
reference to a section symbol like this:
Offset Type Value Addend Name
000000000000000000 X86_64_64 000000000000000000 +3136 .text
But in this case it created a reference to a function symbol:
Offset Type Value Addend Name
000000000000000000 X86_64_64 0x00000000000003a0 +0 lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode
To be honest I have no idea what causes gcc to decide to do one over the
other. But both are valid ELF, so add support for the function symbol.

Second round of new iio device support, features and cleanups in the 4.8 cycle
Firstly some contact detail updates:
* NXP took over freescale. Update the mma8452 header to reflect this.
* Martin Kepplinger email address change in mma8452 header.
* Adriana Reus has changed email address. Update .mailmap.
* Matt Ranostay has changed email address. Update .mailmap.
New Device Support
* max1363
- add the missing i2c_device_ids for a couple of parts so they can actually
be used.
* ms5867
- add device ids for ms5805 and ms5837 parts.
New Features
* ad5755
- DT support. This one was a bit controversial and under review for a long
time. Still no one could come up with a better solution.
* stx104
- add gpio support
* ti-adc081c
- Add ACPI device ID matching.
Core changes
* Refuse to register triggers with duplicate names. There is no way to
distinguish between them so this makes no sense. A few drivers do not
generate unique names for each instance of the device present. We can't
fix this without changing ABI so leave them and wait for someone to
actually take the rare step of two identical accelerometers on the same
board.
* buffer-dma
- use ARRAY_SIZE in a few appropriate locations.
Tools
* Fix the fact that the --trigger-num option in generic_buffer didn't allow
0 which is perfectly valid in the ABI.
Cleanups
* as3935
- improve error reporting.
- remove redundant zeroing of a field in iio_priv.
* gp2ap020a00f
- use the iio_device_claim_*_mode helpers rather than open coding locking
around mode changes.
* isl29125
- use the iio_device_claim_*_mode helpers rather than open coding locking.
* lidar
- use the iio_device_claim_*_mode helpers rather than open coding locking.
* mma8452
- more detail in devices supported description in comments (addresses and
similar)
* sca3000
- add a missing error check.
* tcs3414
- use the iio_device_claim_*_mode helpers rather than open coding locking.

- use the iio_device_claim_*_mode helpers rather than open coding locking.
Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"Two fixes for the tracing system:
- When trace_printk() is used with a non constant format descriptor,
it adds a NULL pointer into the trace format section, and the code
isn't prepared to deal with it. This bug appeared by a change that
was added in v3.5.
- The ftracetest (selftests section) can't handle testing histograms
when histograms are not configured. Currently it shows that they
fail the test, when they should state that they are unsupported.
This bug was added in the 4.7 merge window with the addition of the
historgram code"

ftracetest: Fix hist unsupported result in hist selftests
tracing: Handle NULL formats in hold_module_trace_bprintk_format()

Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
When histograms are not configured in the kernel, the ftracetest histogram
selftests should return "unsupported" and not "Failed". To detect this, the
test scripts have:
FEATURE=`grep hist events/sched/sched_process_fork/trigger`
if [ -z "$FEATURE" ]; then
echo "hist trigger is not supported"
exit_unsupported
fi
The problem is that '-e' is in effect and any error will cause the program
to terminate. The grep for 'hist' fails, because it is not compiled it (thus
unsupported), but because grep has an error code for failing to find the
string, it causes the program to terminate, and is marked as a failed test.
Namhyung Kim recommended to test for the "hist" file located in
events/sched/sched_process_fork/hist instead, as it is more inline with the
other checks. As the hist file is only created if the histogram feature is
enabled, that is a valid check.

The vmlinux image is available for all the architectures, and suitable
for running a KVM guest by QEMU, besides, we used to copy the vmlinux

This patch makes identify_boot_image() return vmlinux if

First round of IIO new device support, features and cleanups for the 4.8 cycle.
New device support
* ads1015
- add ads1115 support
* bma220 accelerometer
- new driver
- triggered buffer support.
* bmc150
- add bmm150 support.
* bmp280
- bme280 support with addition of humidity channel.
* max5487 potentiometer
- new driver
* MMA7660FC accelerometer.
- New driver
* st-pressure
- support for the lps22hb
* loop trigger.
- This one is *nasty* but we have real applications (parrot drones) where
it is useful. The trigger basically spins as hard as it can firing off
a new trigger each time all triggered devices come back to say they are
done. It doesn't hang a machine even when doing it on a dummy driver.
A lot nicer than having this implemented within lots of device drivers
anyway.
Core stuff
* Add support to create IIO devices via configfs (similar to we did for
triggers a while back) + docs.
* New channel types
- IIO_ELECTRICAL_CONDUCTIVITY
* Couple of MAINTAINERS patches to list the device tree bindings.
* Make trigger ops structure non optional (comment fix). It hasn't been for
an awful long time, but that's not what the description said.
New features
* ak8975
- support adapters that are limited to byte data only by allowing the
emulated block read i2c function that was recently introduced.
* atlas-ph
- support atlas-ec (electrical conductivity sensor)
* bmi160
- add available frequency and scale attributes to make the driver
more user friendly (and avoid having to read the datasheet to know
what will work).
* dummy
- move creation to configfs interface. It's not real hardware so we
are not that worried about the ABI breakage ;)
* mma8452
- oversampling ration support
* nau7802
- expose available gains to make life easier for userspace.
* st-sensors
- allow use of emulation for SMBus block reads as all the st parts support
it.
* ti-ads1015
- list datasheet names to allow their use by inkernel consumers.
* Various module alias additions to help auto probing. Drop one redundant one
as well.
Cleanups
* ad7266, ad7476, ad7887, ad7923, ad799x
- use direct mode claim function rather than open coding it during sensor
read (prevents switching on buffers mid read).
* ad7793, ad7791
- use direct mode claim to prevent frequency changes when buffers running.
* afe440x - These are ABI breaking but the driver requires custom userspace
code to do anything useful anyway and that is still being written and under
control of TI. Ultimately we may have other libraries to do pulse
oximetry with these devices but we aren't aware of any yet.
- kernel-doc format fixes
- drop ifdef fun around of_match_ptr - it's not worth the mess to save
a tiny amount of space.
- drop some unnecessary register initializations.
- drop the weird locked gain modes as they gain us nothing (can just set
all gains separately).
- remove handling of offset attributes seeing as no channels actually have
them (oops)
- Drop the LED3 input channel as it's an alias for ALED2.
- *big one* remove channel names - an experiment that turned out to not
make sense - see patch for details.
- use regmap fields to clean up code.
- tie the tia gain stages to appropriate channels in the ABI as that is
what they really effect. Same with the LED currents.
- cleanout some unused defines and fix a missnamed one.
* atlas-ph
- reorganise to allow support of other similar parts.
* bmc150
- document supported chips in kconfig help.
* jsa1212
- drop an unneeded i2c functionality check for functionality the driver
doesn't use.
* mxs-lradc
- simply touch screen registration code.
- remove the touch screen unregister as all devm based now.
- disable only those channels that are masked in hardware stop (others
are already dealt with elsewhere)
* st-sensors
- unexport st_sensors_get_buffer_element as nothing outside the st-sensors
core driver uses it.
- fix handling of failure to start up regulators.
* tpl0102
- drop an i2c functionality test for features that aren't needed.
* ti-am335x
- use variable name rather than type in sizeof for clarity.
- use SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS helper macro to tidy up a bit.
Tools
* Add install / uninstall to makefile. Someone cares, so presumably
some people will find it useful!
* generic_buffer
- rename to iio_generic_buffer to line up with other tools.
- handle cleanup when receiving signals
- Add a --device-num option and a --trigger-num option rather than
relying on naming which doesn't work if you have two of the same part.

documentation was available until 2012. Having that information now,
we can clarify what is done in the code.

Having stats for single VMs can help to determine the problem of a VM
without the need of running other tools like perf.
The tracepoints already allowed pid level monitoring, but kvm_stat
didn't have support for it till now. Support for the newly implemented
debugfs vm monitoring was also implemented.

kvm_stat script is failing to execute on powerpc :
# ./kvm_stat
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "./kvm_stat", line 315, in get_filters
if ARCH.exit_reasons:
AttributeError: 'ArchPPC' object has no attribute 'exit_reasons'
This is because, its trying to access a non-defined attribute.
Also, the IOCTL number of RESET is incorrect for powerpc. The correct
number has been added.

This tool displays kvm vm exit statistics to ease vm monitoring. It
takes its data from the kvm debugfs files or the vm tracepoints and
outputs them as a curses ui or simple text.
It was moved from qemu, as it is dependent on the kernel whereas qemu
works with a large number of kernel versions, some of which may break
the script.
