Impact: fix typo in documentation
TPPROTO is misspelt in Documentation/tracepoints.txt
Kept me wondering what was wrong, when I was trying to add a new tracepoint
subsystem.

Impact: extend documentation with notice of using wild cards correctly
We know that we can use wild cards to set set_ftrace_filter, but there's
problem when using them naively such as:
echo h* > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
If there are files named with "h" prefix in current directory,
echo "h*" will echo these filenames to set_ftrace_filter, not the
intended "h*".
For example:
$ cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions |grep ^hr |wc -l
23
$ ls
$ touch hraa hrdd
$ ls
hraa hrdd
$ echo hr* > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
$ cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
No output in /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter!
If we use '' to escape wild cards, it works:
$ ls
hraa hrdd
$ echo "hr*" > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
$ cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter |wc -l
23
This problem can lead to unexpected result if current directory has a
lot of files.

Impact: feature to function trace a single thread
This patch adds the ability to function trace a single thread.
The file:
/debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_pid
contains the pid to trace. Valid pids are any positive integer.
Writing any negative number to this file will disable the pid
tracing and the function tracer will go back to tracing all of
threads.
This feature works with both static and dynamic function tracing.

Impact: modify+improve the userstacktrace tracing visualization feature
Store thread group leader id, and use it to lookup the address in the
process's map. We could have looked up the address on thread's map,
but the thread might not exist by the time we are called. The process
might not exist either, but if you are reading trace_pipe, that is
unlikely.
Example usage:
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
echo sym-userobj >iter_ctrl
echo sched_switch >current_tracer
echo 1 >tracing_enabled
cat trace_pipe >/tmp/trace&
.... run application ...
echo 0 >tracing_enabled
cat /tmp/trace
You'll see stack entries like:
/lib/libpthread-2.7.so[+0xd370]
You can convert them to function/line using:
addr2line -fie /lib/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370
Or:
addr2line -fie /usr/lib/debug/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370
For non-PIC/PIE executables this won't work:
a.out[+0x73b]
You need to run the following: addr2line -fie a.out 0x40073b
(where 0x400000 is the default load address of a.out)

Impact: add new (default-off) tracing visualization feature
Usage example:
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
echo sched_switch >current_tracer
echo 1 >tracing_enabled
.... run application ...
echo 0 >tracing_enabled
Then read one of 'trace','latency_trace','trace_pipe'.
To get the best output you can compile your userspace programs with
frame pointers (at least glibc + the app you are tracing).

Impact: makes device isolation the default for AMD IOMMU
Some device drivers showed double-free bugs of DMA memory while testing
them with AMD IOMMU. If all devices share the same protection domain
this can lead to data corruption and data loss. Prevent this by putting
each device into its own protection domain per default.

Impact: API *CHANGE*. Must update all tracepoint users.
Add DEFINE_TRACE() to tracepoints to let them declare the tracepoint
structure in a single spot for all the kernel. It helps reducing memory
consumption, especially when declaring a lot of tracepoints, e.g. for
kmalloc tracing.
*API CHANGE WARNING*: now, DECLARE_TRACE() must be used in headers for
tracepoint declarations rather than DEFINE_TRACE(). This is the sane way
to do it. The name previously used was misleading.
Updates scheduler instrumentation to follow this API change.

Impact: new API.
Allow markers to be used only for declaration, without function call
associated. Useful to create specialized probes.
The problem we had is that two function calls were required when one
wanted to put a marker in a tracepoint probe. Now the marker can be used
simply for trace data type declaration, leaving the trace write work
within the tracepoint probe without any additional function call.

Impact: rename of debugfs file trace_entries to buffer_size_kb
The original ftrace had fixed size entries, and the number of entries
was shown and modified via the file called trace_entries. By converting
to the unified trace buffer, we now allow for variable size entries
which makes the meaning of trace_entries pointless.
Since trace_size might be confused to the size of the trace, this patch
names it "buffer_size_kb" (thanks to Arjan van de Ven for this idea).
[ mingo@elte.hu: changed from buffer_size to buffer_size_kb ]
( Note, the units are still bytes - the next patch changes that,
to keep the wide rename patch separate from the unit-change patch. )

This adds a driver to the accelerometer sensor found in several HP
laptops (under the commercial names of "HP Mobile Data Protection System
3D" and "HP 3D driveguard"). It tries to have more or less the same
interfaces as the hdaps and other accelerometer drivers: in sysfs and as
a joystick.
This driver was first written by Yan Burman. Eric Piel has updated it
and slimed it up (including the removal of an interface to access to the
free-fall feature of the sensor because it is not reliable enough for
now). Pavel Machek removed few more features and switched locking from
semaphore to mutex.
Several people have contributed to the database of the axes.

With this change, control file 'freezer.state' doesn't exist in root
cgroup, making root cgroup unfreezable.
I think it's reasonable to disallow freeze tasks in the root cgroup. And
then we can avoid fork overhead when freezer subsystem is compiled but not
used.
Also make writing invalid value to freezer.state returns EINVAL rather
than EIO. This is more consistent with other cgroup subsystem.

Commit d0fc2eaaf4c56a95f5ed29b6bfb609e19714fc16 "powerpc/fsl: Refactor
device bindings" split out a number of device bindings from
booting-without-of.txt into separate files. Having them all in one file
was a frequent source of merge conflicts.
However, in the next merge, 49997d75152b3d23c53b0fa730599f2f74c92c65, there
was another conflict. Some of the bindings removed from
booting-without-of.txt were mistakenly added back in and the copies in
dts-bindings were kept as well.
This patch re-removes "Freescale Display Interface" and "Freescale on board
FPGA" and fixes the table of contents.
