POSIX says that renaming one hardlink on top of another to the same

Steven Rostedt 818e3dd30a tracing, ring-buffer: add paranoid checks for loops
While writing a new tracer, I had a bug where I caused the ring-buffer
to recurse in a bad way. The bug was with the tracer I was writing
and not the ring-buffer itself. But it took a long time to find the
problem.

This patch adds paranoid checks into the ring-buffer infrastructure
that will catch bugs of this nature.

Note: I put the bug back in the tracer and this patch showed the error
      nicely and prevented the lockup.

Steven Rostedt b3aa557722 ftrace: use kretprobe trampoline name to test in output
Impact: ia64+tracing build fix

When a function is kprobed, the return address is set to the
kprobe_trampoline, or something similar. This caused the output
of the trace to look confusing when the parent seemed to be this
"kprobe_trampoline" function.

To fix this, Abhishek Sagar added a test of the instruction pointer
of the parent to see if it matched the kprobe_trampoline. If it
did, the output would print a "[unknown/kretprobe'd]" instead.

Unfortunately, not all archs do this the same way, and the trampoline
function may not be exported, which causes failures in builds.

This patch will compare the name instead of the pointer to see
if it matches. This prevents us from depending on a function from
being exported, and should work on all archs. The worst that can
happen is that an arch might use a different name and then we
go back to the confusing output. At least the arch will still build.

Max Dmitrichenko 5769907ade sparc64: Fix PCI resource mapping on sparc64
There is a problem discovered in recent versions of ATI Mach64 driver
in X.org on sparc64 architecture. In short, the driver fails to mmap
MMIO aperture (PCI resource #2).

I've found that kernel's __pci_mmap_make_offset() returns EINVAL. It
checks whether user attempts to mmap more than the resource length,
which is 0x1000 bytes in our case. But PAGE_SIZE on SPARC64 is 0x2000
and this is what actually is being mmaped. So __pci_mmap_make_offset()
failed for this PCI resource.

This makes the late e820 resources use 'insert_resource_expand_to_fit()'
instead of doing a 'reserve_region_with_split()', and also avoids
marking them as IORESOURCE_BUSY.

This results in us being perfectly happy to use pre-existing PCI
resources even if they were marked as being in a reserved region, while
still avoiding any _new_ allocations in the reserved regions.  It also
makes for a simpler and more accurate resource tree.

Example resource allocation from Jonathan Corbet, who has firmware that
has an e820 reserved entry that covered a big range (e0000000-fed003ff),
and that had various PCI resources in it set up by firmware.

With old kernels, the reserved range would force us to re-allocate all
pre-existing PCI resources, and his reserved range would end up looking
like this:

	e0000000-fed003ff : reserved
	  fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
	  fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

where only the pre-allocated special regions (IOAPIC and HPET) were kept
around.

With 2.6.28-rc2, which uses 'reserve_region_with_split()', Jonathan's
resource tree looked like this:

	e0000000-fe7fffff : reserved
	fe800000-fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
	 fe800000-fe8fffff : reserved
	fe900000-fe9d9aff : reserved
	fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3
	 fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : reserved
	fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : 0000:00:1a.7
	 fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : reserved
	fe9da000-fe9dafff : 0000:00:03.3
	 fe9da000-fe9dafff : reserved
	fe9db000-fe9dbfff : 0000:00:19.0
	 fe9db000-fe9dbfff : reserved
	fe9dc000-fe9dffff : 0000:00:1b.0
	 fe9dc000-fe9dffff : reserved
	fe9e0000-fe9fffff : 0000:00:19.0
	 fe9e0000-fe9fffff : reserved
	fea00000-fea7ffff : 0000:00:02.0
	 fea00000-fea7ffff : reserved
	fea80000-feafffff : 0000:00:02.1
	 fea80000-feafffff : reserved
	feb00000-febfffff : 0000:00:02.0
	 feb00000-febfffff : reserved
	fec00000-fed003ff : reserved
	 fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
	 fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

and because the reserved entry had been split and moved into the
individual resources, and because it used the IORESOURCE_BUSY flag, the
drivers that actually wanted to _use_ those resources couldn't actually
attach to them:

	e1000e 0000:00:19.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9e0000-0xfe9fffff]
	HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9dc000-0xfe9dffff]

with this patch, the resource tree instead becomes

	e0000000-fed003ff : reserved
	  fe800000-fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
	  fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3
	  fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : 0000:00:1a.7
	    fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : ehci_hcd
	  fe9da000-fe9dafff : 0000:00:03.3
	  fe9db000-fe9dbfff : 0000:00:19.0
	    fe9db000-fe9dbfff : e1000e
	  fe9dc000-fe9dffff : 0000:00:1b.0
	    fe9dc000-fe9dffff : ICH HD audio
	  fe9e0000-fe9fffff : 0000:00:19.0
	    fe9e0000-fe9fffff : e1000e
	  fea00000-fea7ffff : 0000:00:02.0
	  fea80000-feafffff : 0000:00:02.1
	  feb00000-febfffff : 0000:00:02.0
	  fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
	  fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

ie the one reserved region now ends up surrounding all the PCI resources
that were allocated inside of it by firmware, and because it is not
marked BUSY, drivers have no problem attaching to the pre-allocated
resources.
