ring-buffer fixes for 7.1:

- Fix reporting MISSED EVENTS in trace iterator

  When the "trace" file is read with tracing enabled, if the writer
  were to pass the iterator reader, it resets, sets a "missed_events"
  flag and continues. The tracing output checks for missed events and
  if there are some, it prints out "[LOST EVENTS]" to let the user
  know events were dropped.

  But the clearing of the missed_events happened when the tracing system
  queried the ring buffer iterator about missed events. This was premature
  as the ring buffer is per CPU, and the tracing code reads all the
  CPU buffers and checks for missed events when it is read. If the
  CPU iterator that had missed events isn't printed next, the output
  for the LOST EVENTS is lost.

  Clear the missed_events flag when the iterator moves to the next event
  and not when the missed_events flag is queried. Also clear it on reset.

- Flush and stop the persistent ring buffer on panic

  On panic the persistent ring buffer is used to debug what caused the
  panic. But on some architectures, it requires flushing the memory
  from cache, otherwise, the ring buffer persistent memory may not have
  the last events and this could also cause the ring buffer to be
  corrupted on the next boot.

- Fix nr_subbufs initialization in simple_ring_buffer_init_mm

  The remote simple ring buffer  meta data nr_subbufs is initialized
  too early and gets cleared later on, making it zero and not reflect
  the actual number of sub-buffers.

- Fix unload_page for simple_ring_buffer init rollback

  On error, the pages loaded need to be unloaded. To unload a page
  it is expected that: page = load_page(va); -> unload_page(page).
  But the code was doing: unload_page(va) and not unload_page(page).

- Create output file from cmd_check_undefined

  The check for undefined symbols checks if the file *.o.checked exists
  and if so it skips doing the work. But the *.o.checked file never
  was created making every build do the work even when it was already
  done previously.

[for-linus][PATCH 1/5] ring-buffer: Fix reporting of missed events in iterator

[Steven Rostedt]

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

When tracing is active while reading the trace file, if the iterator
reading the buffer detects that the writer has passed the iterator head,
it will reset and set a "missed events" flag. This flag is passed to the
output processing to show the user that events were missed:

  CPU:4 [LOST EVENTS]

The problem is that the flag is reset after it is checked in
ring_buffer_iter_dropped(). But the "trace" file iterates over all the CPU
ring buffers and it will check if they are dropped when figuring out which
buffer to print next. This prematurely clears the missed_events flag if
the CPU buffer with the missed events is not the one that is printed next.

On the iteration where the CPU buffer with the missed events is printed,
the check if it had missed events would return false and the output does
not show that events were missed.

Do not reset the missed_events flag when checking if there were missed
events, but instead clear it when moving the iterator head to the next
event.

[for-linus][PATCH 2/5] ring-buffer: Flush and stop persistent ring buffer on panic

[Steven Rostedt]

From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.

To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

[for-linus][PATCH 3/5] tracing: Fix nr_subbufs initialization in simple_ring_buffer_init_mm()

[Steven Rostedt]

From: David Carlier <devnexen@gmail.com>

nr_subbufs in the ring buffer metadata is always initialized to zero
because it is assigned from cpu_buffer->nr_pages before the page
initialization loop has run. While nr_subbufs is not currently read
by the kernel, it should reflect the actual buffer geometry in the
meta page for correctness.

Move the assignment after the page loop so that cpu_buffer->nr_pages
holds the final count.

[for-linus][PATCH 4/5] tracing: Fix unload_page for simple_ring_buffer init rollback

[Steven Rostedt]

From: Vincent Donnefort <vdonnefort@google.com>

The unload_page callback expects the return value of load_page() as its
argument: ret = load_page(va); unload(ret). Fix the rollback code in
simple_ring_buffer_init_mm() where the descriptor's VA is used instead
of the loaded page address.

[for-linus][PATCH 5/5] tracing: Create output file from cmd_check_undefined

[Steven Rostedt]

From: =?UTF-8?q?Thomas=20Wei=C3=9Fschuh?= <linux@weissschuh.net>

As the output file is currently never created, the check will run every
time, even if the inputs have not changed.

Create an empty output file which allows make to skip the execution when
it is not necessary.
