      "message": "perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -\u003e Performance Events\n\nBye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!\n\nIn the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its\ninitial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is\nbecoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,\nmonitoring, analysis facility.\n\nNaming its core object \u0027perf_counter\u0027 and naming the subsystem\n\u0027perfcounters\u0027 has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending\ncode like hw-breakpoints support the \u0027counter\u0027 name is less and\nless appropriate.\n\nAll in one, we\u0027ve decided to rename the subsystem to \u0027performance\nevents\u0027 and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables\nand API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)\n\nThe word \u0027event\u0027 is also a bit shorter than \u0027counter\u0027 - which makes\nit slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.\n\nThanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and\nsuggested a rename.\n\nUser-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch\nshould be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to\nkeep the size down.)\n\nThis patch has been generated via the following script:\n\n  FILES\u003d$(find * -type f | grep -vE \u0027oprofile|[^K]config\u0027)\n\n  sed -i \\\n    -e \u0027s/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/perf_counter/perf_event/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/nb_counters/nb_events/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/swcounter/swevent/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g\u0027 \\\n    $FILES\n\n  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do\n    M\u003d$(echo $N | sed \u0027s/perf_counter/perf_event/g\u0027)\n    mv $N $M\n  done\n\n  FILES\u003d$(find . -name perf_event.*)\n\n  sed -i \\\n    -e \u0027s/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/COUNTER/EVENT/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/\\\u003cevent\\\u003e/event_id/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/counter/event/g\u0027 \\\n    -e \u0027s/Counter/Event/g\u0027 \\\n    $FILES\n\n... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be\nused by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts\na Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this\nchange to the point in time where the amount of pending patches\nis the smallest: the end of the merge window.\n\nNamespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some\nstylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.\n\n( NOTE: \u0027counters\u0027 are still the proper terminology when we deal\n  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit\n  over-eager in renaming them. I\u0027ve undone some of that, but\n  in case there\u0027s something left where \u0027counter\u0027 would be\n  better than \u0027event\u0027 we can undo that on an individual basis\n  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )\n\nSuggested-by: Stephane Eranian \u003ceranian@google.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nAcked-by: Paul Mackerras \u003cpaulus@samba.org\u003e\nReviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven \u003carjan@linux.intel.com\u003e\nCc: Mike Galbraith \u003cefault@gmx.de\u003e\nCc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo \u003cacme@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Frederic Weisbecker \u003cfweisbec@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: Steven Rostedt \u003crostedt@goodmis.org\u003e\nCc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt \u003cbenh@kernel.crashing.org\u003e\nCc: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Kyle McMartin \u003ckyle@mcmartin.ca\u003e\nCc: Martin Schwidefsky \u003cschwidefsky@de.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: \"David S.

      "message": "asm-generic: add a generic unistd.h\n\nA new architecture should only define a minimal set of system\ncalls while still providing the full functionality. This version\nof unistd.h has gone through intensive review to make sure that\nby default it only enables syscalls that do not already have\na more featureful replacement.\n\nIt is modeled after the x86-64 version of unistd.h, which unifies\nthe syscall number definition and the actual system call table\nin a single file, in order to keep them synchronized much more\neasily.\n\nThis first version still keeps legacy system call definitions\naround, guarded by various #ifdefs, and with numbers larger\nthan 1024. The idea behind this is to make it easier for\nnew architectures to transition from a full list to the reduced\nset. In particular, the new microblaze architecture that should\nmigrate to using the generic ABI headers can at least use an\nexisting uClibc source tree without major rewrites during the\nconversion.\n\nSigned-off-by: Arnd Bergmann \u003carnd@arndb.de\u003e\n"
