Merge branch 'perf-uprobes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull user-space probe instrumentation from Ingo Molnar:
"The uprobes code originates from SystemTap and has been used for years
in Fedora and RHEL kernels. This version is much rewritten, reviews
from PeterZ, Oleg and myself shaped the end result.

This tree includes uprobes support in 'perf probe' - but SystemTap
(and other tools) can take advantage of user probe points as well.

Sample usage of uprobes via perf, for example to profile malloc()
calls without modifying user-space binaries.

First boot a new kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT=y enabled.

If you don't know which function you want to probe you can pick one
from 'perf top' or can get a list all functions that can be probed
within libc (binaries can be specified as well):

$ perf probe -F -x /lib/libc.so.6

To probe libc's malloc():

$ perf probe -x /lib64/libc.so.6 malloc
Added new event:
probe_libc:malloc (on 0x7eac0)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1

Make use of it to create a call graph (as the flat profile is going to
look very boring):

$ perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -gR make
[ perf record: Woken up 173 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 44.190 MB perf.data (~1930712

The core uprobes design is fairly straightforward: uprobes probe
points register themselves at (inode:offset) addresses of
libraries/binaries, after which all existing (or new) vmas that map
that address will have a software breakpoint injected at that address.
vmas are COW-ed to preserve original content. The probe points are
kept in an rbtree.

If user-space executes the probed inode:offset instruction address
then an event is generated which can be recovered from the regular
perf event channels and mmap-ed ring-buffer.

Multiple probes at the same address are supported, they create a
dynamic callback list of event consumers.

The basic model is further complicated by the XOL speedup: the
original instruction that is probed is copied (in an architecture
specific fashion) and executed out of line when the probe triggers.
The XOL area is a single vma per process, with a fixed number of
entries (which limits probe execution parallelism).

The API: uprobes are installed/removed via
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, the API is integrated to
align with the kprobes interface as much as possible, but is separate
to it.

Injecting a probe point is privileged operation, which can be relaxed
by setting perf_paranoid to -1.

You can use multiple probes as well and mix them with kprobes and
regular PMU events or tracepoints, when instrumenting a task."

Fix up trivial conflicts in mm/memory.c due to previous cleanup of
unmap_single_vma().

tracing: Provide trace events interface for uprobes

Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form
it can be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and
dump the required registers when the code flow reaches the
probed address.

The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer
and %ax a register at the probed text address. Here we are
trying to probe zfree in /bin/zsh:

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
# cat /proc/`pgrep zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
# objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
0000000000446420 g DF .text 0000000000000012 Base
zfree # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
