selftests/vm/compaction_test: fix write to restore nr_hugepages

2016-06-25T00:23:52Z

The write at the end of the test to restore nr_hugepages to its previous value is failing. This is because it is trying to write the number of bytes in the char array as opposed to the number of bytes in the string.

ftracetest: Fix hist unsupported result in hist selftests

2016-06-20T13:46:21Z

When histograms are not configured in the kernel, the ftracetest histogram selftests should return "unsupported" and not "Failed". To detect this, the test scripts have: FEATURE=`grep hist events/sched/sched_process_fork/trigger` if [ -z "$FEATURE" ]; then echo "hist trigger is not supported" exit_unsupported fi The problem is that '-e' is in effect and any error will cause the program to terminate. The grep for 'hist' fails, because it is not compiled it (thus unsupported), but because grep has an error code for failing to find the string, it causes the program to terminate, and is marked as a failed test. Namhyung Kim recommended to test for the "hist" file located in events/sched/sched_process_fork/hist instead, as it is more inline with the other checks. As the hist file is only created if the histogram feature is enabled, that is a valid check.

ftracetest: Use proper logic to find process PID

2016-05-23T14:04:46Z

Half of the test in instance-event.tc was updated to use $! to find the PID of the previous background process that was launched, but the second part of the test still used the parsing of "jobs", which does not work on all shells like $! does. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

Pull motr tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Three more changes. - I forgot that I had another selftest to stress test the ftrace instance creation. It was actually suppose to go into the 4.6 merge window, but I never committed it. I almost forgot about it again, but noticed it was missing from your tree. - Soumya PN sent me a clean up patch to not disable interrupts when taking the tasklist_lock for read, as it's unnecessary because that lock is never taken for write in irq context. - Newer gcc's can cause the jump in the function_graph code to the global ftrace_stub label to be a short jump instead of a long one. As that jump is dynamically converted to jump to the trace code to do function graph tracing, and that conversion expects a long jump it can corrupt the ftrace_stub itself (it's directly after that call). One way to prevent gcc from using a short jump is to declare the ftrace_stub as a weak function, which we do here to keep gcc from optimizing too much" * tag 'trace-v4.7-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace/x86: Set ftrace_stub to weak to prevent gcc from using short jumps to it ftrace: Don't disable irqs when taking the tasklist_lock read_lock ftracetest: Add instance created, delete, read and enable event test

selftests/thuge-gen: Use platform specific MAP_HUGETLB value

2016-05-22T19:43:41Z

Do not hardcode MAP_HUGETLB to 0x40000, since quite some architectures use a different value. Tested with a parisc architecture 64bit kernel. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

parisc: Add ARCH_TRACEHOOK and regset support

2016-05-22T19:39:13Z

By adding TRACEHOOK support we now get a clean user interface to access registers via PTRACE_GETREGS, PTRACE_SETREGS, PTRACE_GETFPREGS and PTRACE_SETFPREGS. The user-visible regset struct user_regs_struct and user_fp_struct are modelled similiar to x86 and can be accessed via PTRACE_GETREGSET. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller
