With this patch the OProfile Basic Mode Sampling support for System z
is enhanced with a counter file system. That way hardware sampling
can be configured using the user space tools with only little
modifications.With the patch by default new cpu_types (s390/z10, s390/z196) are
returned in order to indicate that we are running a CPU which provides
the hardware sampling facility. Existing user space tools will
complain about an unknown cpu type. In order to be compatible with
existing user space tools the `cpu_type' module parameter has been
added. Setting the parameter to `timer' will force the module to
return `timer' as cpu_type. The module will still try to use hardware
sampling if available and the hwsampling virtual filesystem will be
also be available for configuration. So this has a different effect
than using the generic oprofile module parameter `timer=1'.If the basic mode sampling is enabled on the machine and the
cpu_type=timer parameter is not used the kernel module will provide
the following virtual filesystem:/dev/oprofile/0/enabled
/dev/oprofile/0/event
/dev/oprofile/0/count
/dev/oprofile/0/unit_mask
/dev/oprofile/0/kernel
/dev/oprofile/0/userIn the counter file system only the values of 'enabled', 'count',
'kernel', and 'user' are evaluated by the kernel module. Everything
else must contain fixed values.The 'event' value only supports a single event - HWSAMPLING with value
0.The 'count' value specifies the hardware sampling rate as it is passed
to the CPU measurement facility.The 'kernel' and 'user' flags can now be used to filter for samples
when using hardware sampling.Additionally also the following file will be created:
/dev/oprofile/timer/enabledThis will always be the inverted value of /dev/oprofile/0/enabled. 0
is not accepted without hardware sampling.Signed-off-by: Andreas Krebbel

There are a lot userspace approaches to detect the usage of the
platform (laptop, workstation, server, ...) and adjust kernel tunables
accordingly (io/process scheduler, power management, ...).These approaches need constant maintaining and are ugly to implement
(detect PCMCIA controller -> laptop,
does not work on recent systems anymore, ...)
On ACPI systems there is an easy and reliable way (if implemented
in BIOS and most recent platforms have this value set).

Originally, the runtime PM core would send an idle notification
whenever a suspend attempt failed. The idle callback routine could
then schedule a delayed suspend for some time later.However this behavior was changed by commit
f71648d73c1650b8b4aceb3856bebbde6daa3b86 (PM / Runtime: Remove idle
notification after failing suspend). No notifications were sent, and
there was no clear mechanism to retry failed suspends.This caused problems for the usbhid driver, because it fails
autosuspend attempts as long as a key is being held down. Therefore
this patch (as1492) adds a mechanism for retrying failed
autosuspends. If the callback routine updates the last_busy field so
that the next autosuspend expiration time is in the future, the
autosuspend will automatically be rescheduled.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern
