perf_event_open.2 : PERF_SAMPLE_TRANSACTION support in Linux 3.13 (fwd)
...
The following patch adds descriptions of the new perf_event_open.2
PERF_SAMPLE_TRANSACTION sample type as added in Linux 3.13.
The descriptions are based on information provided by Andi Kleen,
both in the e-mail
[PATCH 1/6] perf, core: Add generic transaction flags v5
sent to the linux-kernel list as well as an e-mail
[PATCH] Document transaction flags in perf_event_open manpage
sent to the linux-man list.
The implementation is based heavily on the Intel Haswell
processor. Documentation can be found at this page:
http://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2013/05/03/intelr-transactional-synchronization-extensions-intelr-tsx-profiling-with-linux-0
as well as in section 18.11.5.1 of volume 3 of the
Intel 64 and IA-32 Architecture Software Developer's Manual.
Also, someone with better manpage formatting skills than I have
should probably investigate why I can't get the last line of
the change to properly tab-align with the .I transaction
heading.

perf_event_open.2: cpu/pid argument cleanup
...
This patch attempts to clarify the pid and cpu options to
perf_event_open().
It does two things:
1. Tries to make clear that the "pid" argument can mean
process *or* thread. This is made confusing by
how Linux uses the terms mostly interchangeably.
2. The cpu/pid documentation was confusing because of
how the parameters are interdependent. Since there
are only 6 possible combinations I broke out the
possibilities into a table.

to a mistake with a bitfield, two different values mapped to
the same feature bit.

in Linux 3.12. A much longer report on the issue can be found

perf_event_open.2: PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK updates
...
This started out as just adding the new perf_event_open features
from Linux 3.11 (which was the addition of transactional memory
defines for PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK samples) but turned into a
general cleanup of the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK documentation.
The main clarification is that at least one of the non-privilege values
must be set or else perf_event_open will return an EINVAL error.

Fix possible race condition in readlink.2 example
...
I noticed that the example in the readlink.2 man pages does error
checking for a race condition that would cause the value of the
symbolic link to get larger. However, it doesn't handle the
opposite case, in which the value gets shorter. (The NULL
terminator is always set at the old, longer offset.) This could
cause the program to operate on uninitialized data.

It turns out PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP was broken from 75f937f24bd9
(in Linux 2.6.31, the initial perf_event release) until
724b6daa1 (Linux 3.4).
I've done some extensive kernel source code digging plus
running tests of various kernels and I hope the info
presented is accurate now.
(Patch edited somewhat by mtk.)

For every PTRACE_O_TRACEfoo option, mention that old-style SIGSTOP
is replaced by PTRACE_EVENT_STOP if PTRACE_SEIZE attach was used.
Mention the same thing again in the description of
PTRACE_EVENT_STOP.

perf_event_open.2 Add PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP documentation
...
The perf_event_open() ENABLE/DISABLE/RESET ioctls can take an
argument, PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP. This wasn't documented at all
until about a year ago (despite the support being there from
the beginning) so I missed this when initially writing
the man page.

execve: Add envp to the Linux notes about NULL pointers
...
During the review of static analysis results, we discovered a
functional, but non-portable, use of execve(). For example:
char *cmd[] = { "/path/to/some/file", NULL };
execve(cmd[0], cmd, NULL);
The call succeeds. Yet, the static analysis tool (rightly)
pointed out that envp could be dereferenced. But digging into
glibc and the kernel, it appears that like argv, envp when NULL
is treated as if it were an empty list.
So, to clear things up, I'm submitting this patch to update the
man page to indicate that envp is treated like argv.
