arch: x86: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support

2021-01-29T04:35:51+00:00

The "oprofile" user-space tools don't use the kernel OPROFILE support any more, and haven't in a long time. User-space has been converted to the perf interfaces. Remove the old oprofile's architecture specific support.

x86/oprofile: Avoid TIF_IA32 when checking 64bit mode

2020-10-26T12:46:46+00:00

In preparation to remove TIF_IA32, stop using it in oprofile code. Use user_64bit_mode() instead. Signed-off-by: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201004032536.1229030-4-krisman@collabora.com

oprofile/x86: Convert x86_backtrace() to use the new unwinder

2016-09-20T06:29:34+00:00

Convert oprofile's x86_backtrace() to use the new unwinder. dump_trace() has been deprecated.

x86/dumpstack: Add get_stack_info() interface

2016-09-15T06:13:15+00:00

valid_stack_ptr() is buggy: it assumes that all stacks are of size THREAD_SIZE, which is not true for exception stacks. So the walk_stack() callbacks will need to know the location of the beginning of the stack as well as the end. Another issue is that in general the various features of a stack (type, size, next stack pointer, description string) are scattered around in various places throughout the stack dump code. Encapsulate all that information in a single place with a new stack_info struct and a get_stack_info() interface.

x86/dumpstack: Remove unnecessary stack pointer arguments

2016-09-08T06:58:40+00:00

When calling show_stack_log_lvl() or dump_trace() with a regs argument, providing a stack pointer or frame pointer is redundant.

oprofile/x86: Add regs->ip to oprofile trace

2016-09-08T06:58:40+00:00

dump_trace() doesn't add the interrupted instruction's address to the trace, so add it manually. This makes the profile more useful, and also makes it more consistent with what perf profiling does.

perf: Fix arch_perf_out_copy_user default

2013-11-06T11:34:25+00:00

The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of __copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other argument functions given DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() return bytes copied. Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes not copied. Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied while expecting its worker functions to return bytes copied.
