Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent
(2014-01-2
From: Masami Hiramatsu
In map_groups__find_symbol() map->map_ip is used without ensuring the
map is loaded. Then the address passed to map->map_ip isn't mapped at
the first time.
E.g. below code always fails to get a symbol at the first call;
addr = /* Somewhere in the kernel text */
There are vars that would benefit from making it more difficult or obvious to
overwrite by setting them to const. This macro makes it easier to do so
avoiding typos while making it easier to find such instances.
Oleg Nesterov deserves full credit for this patch.

It is often memory efficient to start instances off with a smaller ring
buffer size than the current default. This is particularly true on
systems with many cores, or when multiple ftrace instances are created,
where the current (higher) default value results in allocation failures.

Hi Steven,
This patch allows instances to have their own independent trace
options (as opposed to the current globally shared trace options)
Does this look like a reasonable change?

This driver was previously an interface driver. Since USB/IP
exports a whole device, not just an interface, it would make
sense to be a device driver.
This patch also modifies the way userspace sees and uses a
shared device:

Now that arm uprobes support has been made separate from the arm kprobes code
the Kconfig can be changed to reflect that.
