- The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
- The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
aligned to memory block size.
- The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
- The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
- The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that
are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.
- The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more
efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
- The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected
because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()

addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page

- The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
dramaticelly reduced.

Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
reading the code.
- The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
hit.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
- The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
Baoquan found via code inspection.
- The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly
ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
- The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
utilization.
- The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive
reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
- The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
- The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David
Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.
By skipping ranges of invalid pfns.
- The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to
one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless
VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic
performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
- The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for
jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs
during memory compaction when using JFS.
- The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication
logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c
into the more appropriate mm/vma.c.
- The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from
Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the
folio_index() function.
- The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal
Moola does that.
- The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from
Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by
the test_memcontrol selftest.
- The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare
hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of
file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new
file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and
prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other
problems, may defeat VMA merging.
- The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from
Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's
one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
- The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code,
tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of
miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code,
tests and documents."
- The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel
Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to
making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
- The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related
functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio
conversions in the hugetlb code.

x86 already uses gcc-8 as the minimum version, this changes all other
architectures to the same version. gcc-8 is used is Debian 10 and Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 8, both of which are still supported, and binutils
2.30 is the oldest corresponding version on those. Ubuntu Pro 18.04 and
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 both use gcc-7 as the system compiler
but additionally include toolchains that remain supported.
With the new minimum toolchain versions, a number of workarounds for older
versions can be dropped, in particular on x86_64 and arm64. Importantly,
the updated compiler version allows removing two of the five remaining
gcc plugins, as support for sancov and structeak features is already
included in modern compiler versions.
I tried collecting the known changes that are possible based on the
new toolchain version, but expect that more cleanups will be possible.
Since this touches multiple architectures, I merged the patches through
the asm-generic tree.

- Allow the persistent ring buffer to be memory mapped
In the last merge window there was issues with the implementation of
mapping the persistent ring buffer because it was assumed that the
persistent memory was just physical memory without being part of the
kernel virtual address space. But this was incorrect and the persistent
ring buffer can be mapped the same way as the allocated ring buffer is
mapped.
The meta data for the persistent ring buffer is different than the normal
ring buffer and the organization of mapping it to user space is a little
different. Make the updates needed to the meta data to allow the
persistent ring buffer to be mapped to user space.
- Fix cpus_read_lock() with buffer->mutex and cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
Mapping the ring buffer to user space uses the cpu_buffer->mapping_lock.
The buffer->mutex can be taken when the mapping_lock is held, giving the
locking order of: cpu_buffer->mapping_lock -->> buffer->mutex. But there
also exists the ordering:
buffer->mutex -->> cpus_read_lock()
mm->mmap_lock -->> cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
cpus_read_lock() -->> mm->mmap_lock
causing a circular chain of:
cpu_buffer->mapping_lock -> buffer->mutex -->> cpus_read_lock() -->>
mm->mmap_lock -->> cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
By moving the cpus_read_lock() outside the buffer->mutex where:
cpus_read_lock() -->> buffer->mutex, breaks the deadlock chain.
- Do not trigger WARN_ON() for commit overrun
When the ring buffer is user space mapped and there's a "commit overrun"
(where an interrupt preempted an event, and then added so many events it
filled the buffer having to drop events when it hit the preempted event)
a WARN_ON() was triggered if this was read via a memory mapped buffer.
This is due to "missed events" being non zero when the reader page ended
up with the commit page. The idea was, if the writer is on the reader page,
there's only one page that has been written to and there should be no
missed events. But if a commit overrun is done where the writer is off the
commit page and looped around to the commit page causing missed events, it
is possible that the reader page is the commit page with missed events.
Instead of triggering a WARN_ON() when the reader page is the commit page
with missed events, trigger it when the reader page is the tail_page with
missed events. That's because the writer is always on the tail_page if
an event was interrupted (which holds the commit event) and continues off
the commit page.
- Reset the persistent buffer if it is fully consumed
On boot up, if the user fully consumes the last boot buffer of the
persistent buffer, if it reboots without enabling it, there will still be
events in the buffer which can cause confusion. Instead, reset the buffer
when it is fully consumed, so that the data is not read again.
- Clean up some goto out jumps
There's a few cases that the code jumps to the "out:" label that simply
returns a value. There used to be more work done at those labels but now
that they simply return a value use a return instead of jumping to a
label.
- Use guard() to simplify some of the code
Add guard() around some locking instead of jumping to a label to do the
unlocking.
- Use free() to simplify some of the code
Use free(kfree) on variables that will get freed on error and use
return_ptr() to return the variable when its not freed. There's one
instance where free(kfree) simplifies the code on a temp variable that was
allocated just for the function use.

Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Allow the persistent ring buffer to be memory mapped
In the last merge window there was issues with the implementation of
mapping the persistent ring buffer because it was assumed that the
persistent memory was just physical memory without being part of the
kernel virtual address space. But this was incorrect and the
persistent ring buffer can be mapped the same way as the allocated
ring buffer is mapped.
The metadata for the persistent ring buffer is different than the
normal ring buffer and the organization of mapping it to user space
is a little different. Make the updates needed to the meta data to
allow the persistent ring buffer to be mapped to user space.
- Fix cpus_read_lock() with buffer->mutex and cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
Mapping the ring buffer to user space uses the
cpu_buffer->mapping_lock. The buffer->mutex can be taken when the
mapping_lock is held, giving the locking order of:
cpu_buffer->mapping_lock -->> buffer->mutex. But there also exists
the ordering:
buffer->mutex -->> cpus_read_lock()
mm->mmap_lock -->> cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
cpus_read_lock() -->> mm->mmap_lock
causing a circular chain of:
cpu_buffer->mapping_lock -> buffer->mutex -->> cpus_read_lock() -->>
mm->mmap_lock -->> cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
By moving the cpus_read_lock() outside the buffer->mutex where:
cpus_read_lock() -->> buffer->mutex, breaks the deadlock chain.
- Do not trigger WARN_ON() for commit overrun
When the ring buffer is user space mapped and there's a "commit
overrun" (where an interrupt preempted an event, and then added so
many events it filled the buffer having to drop events when it hit
the preempted event) a WARN_ON() was triggered if this was read via a
memory mapped buffer.
This is due to "missed events" being non zero when the reader page
ended up with the commit page. The idea was, if the writer is on the
reader page, there's only one page that has been written to and there
should be no missed events.
But if a commit overrun is done where the writer is off the commit
page and looped around to the commit page causing missed events, it
is possible that the reader page is the commit page with missed
events.
Instead of triggering a WARN_ON() when the reader page is the commit
page with missed events, trigger it when the reader page is the
tail_page with missed events. That's because the writer is always on
the tail_page if an event was interrupted (which holds the commit
event) and continues off the commit page.
- Reset the persistent buffer if it is fully consumed
On boot up, if the user fully consumes the last boot buffer of the
persistent buffer, if it reboots without enabling it, there will
still be events in the buffer which can cause confusion. Instead,
reset the buffer when it is fully consumed, so that the data is not
read again.
- Clean up some goto out jumps
There's a few cases that the code jumps to the "out:" label that
simply returns a value. There used to be more work done at those
labels but now that they simply return a value use a return instead
of jumping to a label.

The default idle selection policy doesn't properly handle the case where
@prev_cpu is not part of the task's allowed CPUs.
In this situation, it may return an idle CPU that is not usable by the
task, breaking the assumption that the returned CPU must always be
within the allowed cpumask, causing inefficiencies or even stalls in
certain cases.
This issue can arise in the following cases:
- The task's affinity may have changed by the time the function is
invoked, especially now that the idle selection logic can be used
from multiple contexts (i.e., BPF test_run call).
- The BPF scheduler may provide a @prev_cpu that is not part of the
allowed mask, either unintentionally or as a placement hint. In fact
@prev_cpu may not necessarily refer to the CPU the task last ran on,
but it can also be considered as a target CPU that the scheduler
wishes to use for the task.
Therefore, enforce the right behavior by always checking whether
@prev_cpu is in the allowed mask, when using scx_bpf_select_cpu_and(),
and it's also usable by the task (@p->cpus_ptr). If it is not, try to
find a valid CPU nearby @prev_cpu, following the usual locality-aware
fallback path (SMT, LLC, node, allowed CPUs).
This ensures the returned CPU is always allowed, improving robustness to
affinity changes and invalid scheduler hints, while preserving locality
as much as possible.

Previously it was found that on uniprocessor machines the size of
raw_spinlock_t could be zero so a pre-processor conditional was used to
avoid the allocation of ss->rstat_ss_cpu_lock. The conditional did not take
into account cases where lock debugging features were enabled. Cover these
cases along with the original non-smp case by explicitly using the size of
size of the lock type as criteria for allocation/access where applicable.

"Automount wart removal
A bunch of odd boilerplate gone from instances - the reason for
those was the need to protect the yet-to-be-attched mount from
mark_mounts_for_expiry() deciding to take it out.
But that's easy to detect and take care of in mark_mounts_for_expiry()
itself; no need to have every instance simulate mount being busy by
grabbing an extra reference to it, with finish_automount() undoing
that once it attaches that mount.
Should've done it that way from the very beginning... This is a
flagday change, thankfully there are very few instances.

- Have module addresses get updated in the persistent ring buffer
The addresses of the modules from the previous boot are saved in the
persistent ring buffer. If the same modules are loaded and an address is
in the old buffer points to an address that was both saved in the
persistent ring buffer and is loaded in memory, shift the address to point
to the address that is loaded in memory in the trace event.
- Print function names for irqs off and preempt off callsites
When ignoring the print fmt of a trace event and just printing the fields
directly, have the fields for preempt off and irqs off events still show
the function name (via kallsyms) instead of just showing the raw address.
- Clean ups of the histogram code
The histogram functions saved over 800 bytes on the stack to process
events as they come in. Instead, create per-cpu buffers that can hold this
information and have a separate location for each context level (thread,
softirq, IRQ and NMI).
Also add some more comments to the code.
- Add "common_comm" field for histograms
Add "common_comm" that uses the current->comm as a field in an event
histogram and acts like any of the other fields of the event.
- Show "subops" in the enabled_functions file
When the function graph infrastructure is used, a subsystem has a "subops"
that it attaches its callback function to. Instead of the
enabled_functions just showing a function calling the function that calls
the subops functions, also show the subops functions that will get called
for that function too.
- Add "copy_trace_marker" option to instances
There are cases where an instance is created for tooling to write into,
but the old tooling has the top level instance hardcoded into the
application. New tools want to consume the data from an instance and not
the top level buffer. By adding a copy_trace_marker option, whenever the
top instance trace_marker is written into, a copy of it is also written
into the instance with this option set. This allows new tools to read what
old tools are writing into the top buffer.
If this option is cleared by the top instance, then what is written into
the trace_marker is not written into the top instance. This is a way to
redirect the trace_marker writes into another instance.
- Have tracepoints created by DECLARE_TRACE() use trace_<name>_tp()
If a tracepoint is created by DECLARE_TRACE() instead of TRACE_EVENT(),
then it will not be exposed via tracefs. Currently there's no way to
differentiate in the kernel the tracepoint functions between those that
are exposed via tracefs or not. A calling convention has been made
manually to append a "_tp" prefix for events created by DECLARE_TRACE().
Instead of doing this manually, force it so that all DECLARE_TRACE()
events have this notation.
- Use __string() for task->comm in some sched events
Instead of hardcoding the comm to be TASK_COMM_LEN in some of the
scheduler events use __string() which makes it dynamic. Note, if these
events are parsed by user space it they may break, and the event may have
to be converted back to the hardcoded size.
- Have function graph "depth" be unsigned to the user
Internally to the kernel, the "depth" field of the function graph event is
signed due to -1 being used for end of boundary. What actually gets
recorded in the event itself is zero or positive. Reflect this to user
space by showing "depth" as unsigned int and be consistent across all
events.
- Allow an arbitrary long CPU string to osnoise_cpus_write()
The filtering of which CPUs to write to can exceed 256 bytes. If a machine
has 256 CPUs, and the filter is to filter every other CPU, the write would
take a string larger than 256 bytes. Instead of using a fixed size buffer
on the stack that is 256 bytes, allocate it to handle what is passed in.
- Stop having ftrace check the per-cpu data "disabled" flag
The "disabled" flag in the data structure passed to most ftrace functions
is checked to know if tracing has been disabled or not. This flag was
added back in 2008 before the ring buffer had its own way to disable
tracing. The "disable" flag is now not always set when needed, and the
ring buffer flag should be used in all locations where the disabled is
needed. Since the "disable" flag is redundant and incorrect, stop using it.
Fix up some locations that use the "disable" flag to use the ring buffer
info.
- Use a new tracer_tracing_disable/enable() instead of data->disable flag
There's a few cases that set the data->disable flag to stop tracing, but
this flag is not consistently used. It is also an on/off switch where if a
function set it and calls another function that sets it, the called
function may incorrectly enable it.
Use a new trace_tracing_disable() and tracer_tracing_enable() that uses a
counter and can be nested. These use the ring buffer flags which are
always checked making the disabling more consistent.
- Save the trace clock in the persistent ring buffer
Save what clock was used for tracing in the persistent ring buffer and set
it back to that clock after a reboot.
- Remove unused reference to a per CPU data pointer in mmiotrace functions
- Remove unused buffer_page field from trace_array_cpu structure
- Remove more strncpy() instances
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

The function rb_allocate_pages() allocates cpu_buffer and on error needs
to free it. It has a single return. Use __free(kfree) and return directly
on errors and have the return use return_ptr(cpu_buffer).
The function alloc_buffer() allocates buffer and on error needs to free
it. It has a single return. Use __free(kfree) and return directly on
errors and have the return use return_ptr(buffer).
The function __rb_map_vma() allocates a temporary array "pages". Have it
use __free() and not worry about freeing it when returning.

The function ring_buffer_read_page() had two gotos. One was simply
returning "ret" and the other was unlocking the reader_lock.
There's no reason to use goto to simply return the "ret" variable. Instead
just return the value.
The jump to the unlocking of the reader_lock can be replaced by
guard(raw_spinlock_irqsave)(&cpu_buffer->reader_lock).
With these two changes the "ret" variable is no longer used and can be
removed. The return value on non-error is what was read and is stored in
the "read" variable.

The function ring_buffer_swap_cpu() has a bunch of jumps to the label out
that simply returns "ret". There's no reason to jump to a label that
simply returns a value. Just return directly from there.
This goes back to almost the beginning when commit 8aabee573d
("ring-buffer: remove unneeded get_online_cpus") was introduced. That
commit removed a put_online_cpus() from that label, but never updated all
the jumps to it that now no longer needed to do anything but return a
value.

Reset the last-boot ring buffers when read() reads out all cpu
buffers through trace_pipe/trace_pipe_raw. This prevents ftrace to
unwind ring buffer read pointer next boot.
Note that this resets only when all per-cpu buffers are empty, and
read via read(2) syscall. For example, if you read only one of the
per-cpu trace_pipe, it does not reset it. Also, reading buffer by
splice(2) syscall does not reset because some data in the reader
(the last) page.

When the persistent ring buffer is created from the memory returned by
reserve_mem there is nothing prohibiting it to be memory mapped to user
space. The memory is the same as the pages allocated by alloc_page().
The way the memory is managed by the ring buffer code is slightly
different though and needs to be addressed.
The persistent memory uses the page->id for its own purpose where as the
user mmap buffer currently uses that for the subbuf array mapped to user
space. If the buffer is a persistent buffer, use the page index into that
buffer as the identifier instead of the page->id.
That is, the page->id for a persistent buffer, represents the order of the
buffer is in the link list. ->id == 0 means it is the reader page.
When a reader page is swapped, the new reader page's ->id gets zero, and
the old reader page gets the ->id of the page that it swapped with.
The user space mapping has the ->id is the index of where it was mapped in
user space and does not change while it is mapped.
Since the persistent buffer is fixed in its location, the index of where
a page is in the memory range can be used as the "id" to put in the meta
page array, and it can be mapped in the same order to user space as it is
in the persistent memory.
A new rb_page_id() helper function is used to get and set the id depending
on if the page is a normal memory allocated buffer or a physical memory
mapped buffer.

When reading a memory mapped buffer the reader page is just swapped out
with the last page written in the write buffer. If the reader page is the
same as the commit buffer (the buffer that is currently being written to)
it was assumed that it should never have missed events. If it does, it
triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE().
But there just happens to be one scenario where this can legitimately
happen. That is on a commit_overrun. A commit overrun is when an interrupt
preempts an event being written to the buffer and then the interrupt adds
so many new events that it fills and wraps the buffer back to the commit.
Any new events would then be dropped and be reported as "missed_events".
In this case, the next page to read is the commit buffer and after the
swap of the reader page, the reader page will be the commit buffer, but
this time there will be missed events and this triggers the following
warning:

The above was triggered by running on a kernel with both lockdep and KASAN
as well as kmemleak enabled and executing the following command:
# perf record -o perf-test.dat -a -- trace-cmd record --nosplice -e all -p function hackbench 50
With perf interjecting a lot of interrupts and trace-cmd enabling all
events as well as function tracing, with lockdep, KASAN and kmemleak
enabled, it could cause an interrupt preempting an event being written to
add enough events to wrap the buffer. trace-cmd was modified to have
--nosplice use mmap instead of reading the buffer.
The way to differentiate this case from the normal case of there only
being one page written to where the swap of the reader page received that
one page (which is the commit page), check if the tail page is on the
reader page. The difference between the commit page and the tail page is
that the tail page is where new writes go to, and the commit page holds
the first write that hasn't been committed yet. In the case of an
interrupt preempting the write of an event and filling the buffer, it
would move the tail page but not the commit page.
Have the warning only trigger if the tail page is also on the reader page,
and also print out the number of events dropped by a commit overrun as
that can not yet be safely added to the page so that the reader can see
there were events dropped.

Core
----
- Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
- Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
faster.
- Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing
again the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
scalability.
- Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
micro-benchmarks.
- Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
performance improvement in related stream tests.
- Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
on PREMPT_RT.
- Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
Netfilter
---------
- Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools
still use this interface.
- Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain
and flowtables.
- Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
- Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
introspection.
BPF
---
- BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
using the "tc qdisc" command.
- Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
Protocols
---------
- Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the single
flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
- Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
- Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
matches the nexthop device.
- Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
- Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
in the fast path.
- Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
Driver API
----------
- Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
unsupported flags.
- Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
- Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
dump operations targeting PHYs.
Tests and tooling
-----------------
- Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
qdisc layer configuration.
- Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
netlink output.
- Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
- Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
New hardware / drivers
----------------------
- OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing
to the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT
the user-space implementation.
- Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.
- Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.
- AMD Renoir ethernet device.
- ReakTek MT9888 2.5G ethernet PHY driver.
- Aeonsemi 10G C45 PHYs driver.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core:
- Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
- Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
faster.
- Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again
the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
scalability.
- Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
micro-benchmarks.
- Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
performance improvement in related stream tests.
- Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
on PREMPT_RT.
- Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
Netfilter:
- Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still
use this interface.
- Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and
flowtables.
- Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
- Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
introspection.
BPF:
- BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
using the "tc qdisc" command.
- Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
Protocols:
- Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the
single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
- Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
- Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
matches the nexthop device.
- Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
- Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
in the fast path.
- Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
Driver API:
- Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
unsupported flags.
- Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
- Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
dump operations targeting PHYs.
Tests and tooling:
- Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
qdisc layer configuration.
- Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
netlink output.
- Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
- Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
New hardware / drivers:
- OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing to
the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT the
user-space implementation.
- Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.

On arm32, size_t is defined to be unsigned int, while PAGE_SIZE is
unsigned long. This hence triggers a compilation warning as min()
asserts the type of two operands to be equal. Casting PAGE_SIZE to size_t
solves this issue and works on other target architectures as well.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
- Always record AUDIT_ANOM events when auditing is enabled.
Prior to this patch we only recorded AUDIT_ANOM events if auditing
was enabled and the admin/distro had explicitly configured audit
beyond the defaults. Considering that AUDIT_ANOM events are anomolous
events considered to be "security relevant", it seems wise to record
these events as long as auditing is enabled, even if the system is
running with a default audit configuration.
- Mark the audit_log_vformat() function with the __printf() attribute
to quiet GCC.
* tag 'audit-pr-20250527' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/audit:

Merge tag 'integrity-v6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/zohar/linux-integrity
Pull integrity updates from Mimi Zohar:
"Carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec is not a new feature,
but is updated to address a couple of issues:
- Carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec required knowing
apriori all the file measurements between the "kexec load" and
"kexec execute" in order to measure them before the "kexec load".
Any delay between the "kexec load" and "kexec exec" exacerbated the
problem.
- Any file measurements post "kexec load" were not carried across
kexec, resulting in the measurement list being out of sync with the
TPM PCR.
With these changes, the buffer for the IMA measurement list is still
allocated at "kexec load", but copying the IMA measurement list is
deferred to after quiescing the TPM.
Two new kexec critical data records are defined"
* tag 'integrity-v6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/zohar/linux-integrity:
ima: do not copy measurement list to kdump kernel
ima: measure kexec load and exec events as critical data

- More in-kernel idle CPU selection improvements. Expand topology awareness

CPU selection kfuncs can now be called from unlocked contexts too.
- A bunch of reorganization changes to lay the foundation for multiple
hierarchical scheduler support. This isn't ready yet and the included
changes don't make meaningful behavior differences. One notable change is
replacing some static_key tests with dynamic tests as the test results may
differ depending on the scheduler instance. This isn't expected to cause
meaningful performance difference.
- Other minor and doc updates.

- cgroup rstat shared the tracking tree across all controlers with the
rationale being that a cgroup which is using one resource is likely to be
using other resources at the same time (ie. if something is allocating
memory, it's probably consuming CPU cycles). However, this turned out to
not scale very well especially with memcg using rstat for internal
operations which made memcg stat read and flush patterns substantially
different from other controllers. JP Kobryn split the rstat tree per
controller.
- cgroup BPF support was hooking into cgroup init/exit paths directly.
Convert them to use a notifier chain instead so that other usages can be
added easily. The two of the patches which implement this are mislabeled
as belonging to sched_ext instead of cgroup. Sorry.

Configfs can be configured as a loadable module, which causes a link-time
failure for dm-crypt crash dump support:
crash_dump_dm_crypt.c:(.text+0x3a4): undefined reference to `config_item_init_type_name'
aarch64-linux-ld: kernel/crash_dump_dm_crypt.o: in function `configfs_dmcrypt_keys_init':

aarch64-linux-ld: crash_dump_dm_crypt.c:(.init.text+0xd8): undefined reference to `configfs_unregister_subsystem'
This could be avoided with a dependency on CONFIGFS_FS=y, but the
dependency has an additional problem of causing Kconfig dependency loops
since most other uses select the symbol.
Using a simple 'select CONFIGFS_FS' here in turn fails with
CONFIG_DM_CRYPT=m, because that still only causes configfs to be a
loadable module.
The only version I found that fixes this reliably uses an additional
Kconfig symbol to ensure the 'select' actually turns on configfs as
builtin, with two additional changes to avoid dependency loops with nvme
and sysfs.
There is no compile-time dependency between configfs and sysfs, so
selecting configfs from a driver with sysfs disabled does not cause link
failures, only the default /sys/kernel/config mount point will not be
created.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Once again, the changes are dominated by cpufreq updates, but this
time the majority of them are cpufreq core changes, mostly related to
the introduction of policy locking guards and __free() usage, and
fixes related to boost handling.
Still, there is also a significant update of the intel_pstate driver
making it register an energy model when running on a hybrid platform
which is used for enabling energy-aware scheduling (EAS) if the driver
operates in the passive mode (and schedutil is used as the cpufreq
governor for all CPUs which is the passive mode default).
There are some amd-pstate driver updates too, for a good measure,
including the "Requested CPU Min frequency" BIOS option support and
new online/offline callbacks.
In the cpuidle space, the most significant change is the addition of a
C1 demotion on/off sysfs knob to intel_idle which should help some
users to configure their systems more precisely. There is also the
conversion of the PSCI cpuidle driver to a faux device one and there
are two small updates of cpuidle governors.
Device power management is also modified quite a bit, especially the
handling of devices with asynchronous suspend and resume enabled
during system transitions. They are now going to be handled more
asynchronously during suspend transitions and somewhat less
aggressively during resume transitions.
Apart from the above, the operating performance points (OPP) library
is now going to use mutex locking guards and scope-based cleanup
helpers and there is the usual bunch of assorted fixes and code
cleanups.

When creating bpf program, 'fp->jit_requested' depends on bpf_jit_enable.
This issue is triggered because of CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is not set
and bpf_jit_enable is set to 1, causing the arch to attempt JIT the prog,
but jit failed due to FAULT_INJECTION. As a result, incorrectly
treats the program as valid, when the program runs it calls
`__bpf_prog_ret0_warn` and triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE(1).

Marc Suñé (Isovalent, part of Cisco) reported an issue where an
uninitialized variable caused generating bpf prog binary code not
working as expected. The reproducer is in [1] where the flags
“-Wall -Werror” are enabled, but there is no warning as the compiler
takes advantage of uninitialized variable to do aggressive optimization.
The optimized code looks like below:
; {
0: bf 16 00 00 00 00 00 00 r6 = r1
; bpf_printk("Start");
1: 18 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0x0 ll

9: 85 00 00 00 06 00 00 00 call 0x6
<END>
The verifier will report the following failure:
9: (85) call bpf_trace_printk#6
last insn is not an exit or jmp
The above verifier log does not give a clear hint about how to fix
the problem and user may take quite some time to figure out that
the issue is due to compiler taking advantage of uninitialized variable.
In llvm internals, uninitialized variable usage may generate
'unreachable' IR insn and these 'unreachable' IR insns may indicate
uninitialized variable impact on code optimization. So far, llvm
BPF backend ignores 'unreachable' IR hence the above code is generated.
With clang21 patch [2], those 'unreachable' IR insn are converted
to func __bpf_trap(). In order to maintain proper control flow
graph for bpf progs, [2] also adds an 'exit' insn after bpf_trap()
if __bpf_trap() is the last insn in the function. The new code looks like:
; {
0: bf 16 00 00 00 00 00 00 r6 = r1
; bpf_printk("Start");
1: 18 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0x0 ll

<END>
In kernel, a new kfunc __bpf_trap() is added. During insn
verification, any hit with __bpf_trap() will result in
verification failure. The kernel is able to provide better
log message for debugging.
With llvm patch [2] and without this patch (no __bpf_trap()
kfunc for existing kernel), e.g., for old kernels, the verifier
outputs
10: <invalid kfunc call>
kfunc '__bpf_trap' is referenced but wasn't resolved
Basically, kernel does not support __bpf_trap() kfunc.
This still didn't give clear signals about possible reason.
With llvm patch [2] and with this patch, the verifier outputs
10: (85) call __bpf_trap#74479
unexpected __bpf_trap() due to uninitialized variable?
It gives much better hints for verification failure.

Currently, the verifier has both special_kfunc_set and special_kfunc_list.
When adding a new kfunc usage to the verifier, it is often confusing
about whether special_kfunc_set or special_kfunc_list or both should
add that kfunc. For example, some kfuncs, e.g., bpf_dynptr_from_skb,
bpf_dynptr_clone, bpf_wq_set_callback_impl, does not need to be
in special_kfunc_set.
To avoid potential future confusion, special_kfunc_set is deleted
and btf_id_set_contains(&special_kfunc_set, ...) is removed.
The code is refactored with a new func check_special_kfunc(),
which contains all codes covered by original branch
meta.btf == btf_vmlinux && btf_id_set_contains(&special_kfunc_set, meta.func_id)
There is no functionality change.

This open coded iterator allows for more flexibility when creating BPF
programs. It can support output in formats other than text. With an open
coded iterator, a single BPF program can traverse multiple kernel data
structures (now including dmabufs), allowing for more efficient analysis
of kernel data compared to multiple reads from procfs, sysfs, or
multiple traditional BPF iterator invocations.

The dmabuf iterator traverses the list of all DMA buffers.
DMA buffers are refcounted through their associated struct file. A
reference is taken on each buffer as the list is iterated to ensure each
buffer persists for the duration of the bpf program execution without

of the source and the target VM, before it proceeds with the migration.
The number of vCPUs that belong to each VM is not bounded by anything
except a self-imposed KVM limit of CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS vCPUs which is
significantly larger than the depth of lockdep's lock stack.
Luckily, the locks in both of the cases mentioned above, are held under
the 'kvm->lock' of each VM, which means that we can use the little
known lockdep feature called a "nest_lock" to support this use case in
a cleaner way, compared to the way it's currently done.
Implement and expose 'mutex_lock_killable_nest_lock' for this
purpose.

Despite the fact that several lockdep-related checks are skipped when
calling trylock* versions of the locking primitives, for example
mutex_trylock, each time the mutex is acquired, a held_lock is still
placed onto the lockdep stack by __lock_acquire() which is called
regardless of whether the trylock* or regular locking API was used.
This means that if the caller successfully acquires more than
MAX_LOCK_DEPTH locks of the same class, even when using mutex_trylock,
lockdep will still complain that the maximum depth of the held lock stack
has been reached and disable itself.
For example, the following error currently occurs in the ARM version
of KVM, once the code tries to lock all vCPUs of a VM configured with more
than MAX_LOCK_DEPTH vCPUs, a situation that can easily happen on modern
systems, where having more than 48 CPUs is common, and it's also common to
run VMs that have vCPU counts approaching that number:
[ 328.171264] BUG: MAX_LOCK_DEPTH too low!

Luckily, in all instances that require locking all vCPUs, the
'kvm->lock' is taken a priori, and that fact makes it possible to use
the little known feature of lockdep, called a 'nest_lock', to avoid this
warning and subsequent lockdep self-disablement.
The action of 'nested lock' being provided to lockdep's lock_acquire(),
causes the lockdep to detect that the top of the held lock stack contains
a lock of the same class and then increment its reference counter instead
of pushing a new held_lock item onto that stack.
See __lock_acquire for more information.

- Address a long standing subtle problem in the CPU hotplug code for
affinity-managed interrupts.
Affinity-managed interrupts are shut down by the core code when the
last CPU in the affinity set goes offline and started up again when the
first CPU in the affinity set becomes online again. This unfortunately
does not take into account whether an interrupt has been disabled
before the last CPU goes offline and starts up the interrupt
unconditionally when the first CPU becomes online again. That's
obviously not what drivers expect.
Address this by preserving the disabled state for affinity-managed
interrupts accross these CPU hotplug operations. All non-managed
interrupts are not affected by this because startup/shutdown is coupled
to request/free_irq() which obviously has to reset state.
- Support three-cell scheme interrupts to allow GPIO drivers to specify
interrupts from an already existing scheme
- Switch the interrupt subsystem core to lock guards. This gets rid of
quite some copy & pasta boilerplate code all over the place.

Pull irq core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the generic interrupt subsystem core code:
- Address a long standing subtle problem in the CPU hotplug code for
affinity-managed interrupts.
Affinity-managed interrupts are shut down by the core code when the
last CPU in the affinity set goes offline and started up again when
the first CPU in the affinity set becomes online again.
This unfortunately does not take into account whether an interrupt
has been disabled before the last CPU goes offline and starts up
the interrupt unconditionally when the first CPU becomes online
again.
That's obviously not what drivers expect.
Address this by preserving the disabled state for affinity-managed
interrupts accross these CPU hotplug operations. All non-managed
interrupts are not affected by this because startup/shutdown is
coupled to request/free_irq() which obviously has to reset state.
- Support three-cell scheme interrupts to allow GPIO drivers to
specify interrupts from an already existing scheme
- Switch the interrupt subsystem core to lock guards. This gets rid
of quite some copy & pasta boilerplate code all over the place.
- The usual small cleanups and improvements all over the place"

- Move LoongArch and RISC-V ret_from_fork() implementations to C code so
that syscall_exit_user_mode() can be inlined.
- Split the RISC-V ret_from_fork() implementation into return to user and
return to kernel, which gives a measurable performance improvement.
- Inline syscall_exit_user_mode() which benefits all architectures by
avoiding a function call and letting the compiler do better
optimizations.

Pull pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Allow handing out pidfds for reaped tasks for AF_UNIX SO_PEERPIDFD
socket option
SO_PEERPIDFD is a socket option that allows to retrieve a pidfd for
the process that called connect() or listen(). This is heavily used
to safely authenticate clients in userspace avoiding security bugs
due to pid recycling races (dbus, polkit, systemd, etc.)
SO_PEERPIDFD currently doesn't support handing out pidfds if the
sk->sk_peer_pid thread-group leader has already been reaped. In
this case it currently returns EINVAL. Userspace still wants to get
a pidfd for a reaped process to have a stable handle it can pass
on. This is especially useful now that it is possible to retrieve
exit information through a pidfd via the PIDFD_GET_INFO ioctl()'s
PIDFD_INFO_EXIT flag
Another summary has been provided by David Rheinsberg:
> A pidfd can outlive the task it refers to, and thus user-space
> must already be prepared that the task underlying a pidfd is
> gone at the time they get their hands on the pidfd. For
> instance, resolving the pidfd to a PID via the fdinfo must be
> prepared to read `-1`.
>
> Despite user-space knowing that a pidfd might be stale, several
> kernel APIs currently add another layer that checks for this. In
> particular, SO_PEERPIDFD returns `EINVAL` if the peer-task was
> already reaped, but returns a stale pidfd if the task is reaped
> immediately after the respective alive-check.
>
> This has the unfortunate effect that user-space now has two ways
> to check for the exact same scenario: A syscall might return
> EINVAL/ESRCH/... *or* the pidfd might be stale, even though
> there is no particular reason to distinguish both cases. This
> also propagates through user-space APIs, which pass on pidfds.
> They must be prepared to pass on `-1` *or* the pidfd, because
> there is no guaranteed way to get a stale pidfd from the kernel.
>
> Userspace must already deal with a pidfd referring to a reaped
> task as the task may exit and get reaped at any time will there
> are still many pidfds referring to it
In order to allow handing out reaped pidfd SO_PEERPIDFD needs to
ensure that PIDFD_INFO_EXIT information is available whenever a
pidfd for a reaped task is created by PIDFD_INFO_EXIT. The uapi
promises that reaped pidfds are only handed out if it is guaranteed
that the caller sees the exit information:
TEST_F(pidfd_info, success_reaped)
{
struct pidfd_info info = {
.mask = PIDFD_INFO_CGROUPID | PIDFD_INFO_EXIT,
};
/*
* Process has already been reaped and PIDFD_INFO_EXIT been set.
* Verify that we can retrieve the exit status of the process.
*/
ASSERT_EQ(ioctl(self->child_pidfd4, PIDFD_GET_INFO, &info), 0);
ASSERT_FALSE(!!(info.mask & PIDFD_INFO_CREDS));
ASSERT_TRUE(!!(info.mask & PIDFD_INFO_EXIT));
ASSERT_TRUE(WIFEXITED(info.exit_code));
ASSERT_EQ(WEXITSTATUS(info.exit_code), 0);
}
To hand out pidfds for reaped processes we thus allocate a pidfs
entry for the relevant sk->sk_peer_pid at the time the
sk->sk_peer_pid is stashed and drop it when the socket is
destroyed. This guarantees that exit information will always be
recorded for the sk->sk_peer_pid task and we can hand out pidfds
for reaped processes
- Hand a pidfd to the coredump usermode helper process
Give userspace a way to instruct the kernel to install a pidfd for
the crashing process into the process started as a usermode helper.
There's still tricky race-windows that cannot be easily or
sometimes not closed at all by userspace. There's various ways like
looking at the start time of a process to make sure that the
usermode helper process is started after the crashing process but
it's all very very brittle and fraught with peril
The crashed-but-not-reaped process can be killed by userspace
before coredump processing programs like systemd-coredump have had
time to manually open a PIDFD from the PID the kernel provides
them, which means they can be tricked into reading from an
arbitrary process, and they run with full privileges as they are
usermode helper processes
Even if that specific race-window wouldn't exist it's still the
safest and cleanest way to let the kernel provide the pidfd
directly instead of requiring userspace to do it manually. In
parallel with this commit we already have systemd adding support
for this in [1]
When the usermode helper process is forked we install a pidfd file
descriptor three into the usermode helper's file descriptor table
so it's available to the exec'd program
Since usermode helpers are either children of the system_unbound_wq
workqueue or kthreadd we know that the file descriptor table is
empty and can thus always use three as the file descriptor number
Note, that we'll install a pidfd for the thread-group leader even
if a subthread is calling do_coredump(). We know that task linkage
hasn't been removed yet and even if this @current isn't the actual
thread-group leader we know that the thread-group leader cannot be
reaped until
@current has exited
- Allow telling when a task has not been found from finding the wrong
task when creating a pidfd
We currently report EINVAL whenever a struct pid has no tasked
attached anymore thereby conflating two concepts:
(1) The task has already been reaped
(2) The caller requested a pidfd for a thread-group leader but the
pid actually references a struct pid that isn't used as a
thread-group leader
This is causing issues for non-threaded workloads as in where they
expect ESRCH to be reported, not EINVAL
So allow userspace to reliably distinguish between (1) and (2)

struct pid it pinned

Pull vfs freezing updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains various filesystem freezing related work for this cycle:
- Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend
and hibernate.
Now all the pieces are in place to actually allow the power
subsystem to freeze/thaw filesystems during suspend/resume.
Filesystems are only frozen and thawed if the power subsystem does
actually own the freeze.
If the filesystem is already frozen by the time we've frozen all
userspace processes we don't care to freeze it again. That's
userspace's job once the process resumes. We only actually freeze
filesystems if we absolutely have to and we ignore other failures
to freeze.
We could bubble up errors and fail suspend/resume if the error
isn't EBUSY (aka it's already frozen) but I don't think that this
is worth it. Filesystem freezing during suspend/resume is
best-effort. If the user has 500 ext4 filesystems mounted and 4
fail to freeze for whatever reason then we simply skip them.
What we have now is already a big improvement and let's see how we
fare with it before making our lives even harder (and uglier) than
we have to.
- Allow efivars to support freeze and thaw
Allow efivarfs to partake to resync variable state during system
hibernation and suspend. Add freeze/thaw support.
This is a pretty straightforward implementation. We simply add
regular freeze/thaw support for both userspace and the kernel.
efivars is the first pseudofilesystem that adds support for
filesystem freezing and thawing.
The simplicity comes from the fact that we simply always resync
variable state after efivarfs has been frozen. It doesn't matter
whether that's because of suspend, userspace initiated freeze or
hibernation. Efivars is simple enough that it doesn't matter that
we walk all dentries. There are no directories and there aren't
insane amounts of entries and both freeze/thaw are already
heavy-handed operations. If userspace initiated a freeze/thaw cycle
they would need CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the initial user namespace (as
that's where efivarfs is mounted) so it can't be triggered by
random userspace. IOW, we really really don't care"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
own private superblock
- Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock
- Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior
- Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()
Cleanups:
- Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers
- Try to remove the uselib() system call
- Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll

Pull vfs directory lookup updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains cleanups for the lookup_one*() family of helpers.
We expose a set of functions with names containing "lookup_one_len"
and others without the "_len". This difference has nothing to do with
"len". It's rater a historical accident that can be confusing.
The functions without "_len" take a "mnt_idmap" pointer. This is found
in the "vfsmount" and that is an important question when choosing
which to use: do you have a vfsmount, or are you "inside" the
filesystem. A related question is "is permission checking relevant
here?".
nfsd and cachefiles *do* have a vfsmount but *don't* use the non-_len
functions. They pass nop_mnt_idmap and refuse to work on filesystems
which have any other idmap.
This work changes nfsd and cachefile to use the lookup_one family of
functions and to explictily pass &nop_mnt_idmap which is consistent
with all other vfs interfaces used where &nop_mnt_idmap is explicitly
passed.
The remaining uses of the "_one" functions do not require permission
checks so these are renamed to be "_noperm" and the permission
checking is removed.
This series also changes these lookup function to take a qstr instead
of separate name and len. In many cases this simplifies the call"

Sean noted that scripts/Makefile.lib:name-fix-token rule will mangle
the module name with s/-/_/g.
Since this happens late in the build, only the kernel needs to bother
with this, the modpost tool still sees the original name.

When module load fails after memory for codetag section is ready, codetag
section memory will not be properly released. This causes memory leak,
and if next module load happens to get the same module address, codetag
may pick the uninitialized section when manipulating tags during module
unload, and leads to "unable to handle page fault" BUG.

Right now each process needs to read the BTF blob either in pieces or

remap_pfn_range is used instead of vm_insert_page due to aarch64

The "try_" prefix is confusing, since it made people believe that
try_alloc_pages() is analogous to spin_trylock() and NULL return means
EAGAIN. This is not the case. If it returns NULL there is no reason to
call it again. It will most likely return NULL again. Hence rename it to
alloc_pages_nolock() to make it symmetrical to free_pages_nolock() and
document that NULL means ENOMEM.

BPF schedulers that use both builtin CPU idle mechanism and
ops.update_idle() may want to use the latter to create interlocking between
ops.enqueue() and CPU idle transitions so that either ops.enqueue() sees the
idle bit or ops.update_idle() sees the task queued somewhere. This can
prevent race conditions where CPUs go idle while tasks are waiting in DSQs.
For such interlocking to work, ops.update_idle() must be called after
builtin CPU masks are updated. Relocate the invocation. Currently, there are
no ordering requirements on transitions from idle and this relocation isn't
expected to make meaningful differences in that direction.
This also makes the ops.update_idle() behavior semantically consistent:
any action performed in this callback should be able to override the
builtin idle state, not the other way around.

The current allocation of VMAP stack memory is using (THREADINFO_GFP &
~__GFP_ACCOUNT) which is a complicated way of saying (GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_ZERO):
<linux/thread_info.h>:
define THREADINFO_GFP (GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT | __GFP_ZERO)
<linux/gfp_types.h>:
define GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT (GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ACCOUNT)
This is an unfortunate side-effect of independent changes blurring the
picture:
commit 19809c2da2 changed (THREADINFO_GFP |
__GFP_HIGHMEM) to just THREADINFO_GFP since highmem became implicit.
commit 9b6f7e163c then added stack caching
and rewrote the allocation to (THREADINFO_GFP & ~__GFP_ACCOUNT) as cached
stacks need to be accounted separately. However that code, when it
eventually accounts the memory does this:
ret = memcg_kmem_charge(vm->pages[i], GFP_KERNEL, 0)
so the memory is charged as a GFP_KERNEL allocation.
Define a unique GFP_VMAP_STACK to use
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO and move the comment there.

There are two data types: "struct vm_struct" and "struct vm_stack" that
have the same local variable names: vm_stack, or vm, or s, which makes the

Change the code so the naming is consistent:
struct vm_struct is always called vm_area
struct vm_stack is always called vm_stack

Patch series "sysfs: add counters for lockups and stalls", v2.
Commits 9db89b4111 ("exit: Expose "oops_count" to sysfs") and
8b05aa2633 ("panic: Expose "warn_count" to sysfs") added counters for
oopses and warnings to sysfs, and these two patches do the same for
hard/soft lockups and RCU stalls.
All of these counters are useful for monitoring tools to detect whether
the machine is healthy. If the kernel has experienced a lockup or a
stall, it's probably due to a kernel bug, and I'd like to detect that
quickly and easily. There is currently no way to detect that, other than
parsing dmesg. Or observing indirect effects: such as certain tasks not
responding, but then I need to observe all tasks, and it may take a while
until these effects become visible/measurable. I'd rather be able to
detect the primary cause more quickly, possibly before everything falls
apart.
This patch (of 2):
There is /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_detect_count, /sys/kernel/warn_count
and /sys/kernel/oops_count but there is no userspace-accessible counter
for hard/soft lockups. Having this is useful for monitoring tools.

When there are CPU and memory hot un/plugs, the dm crypt keys may need to
be reloaded again depending on the solution for crash hotplug support.
Currently, there are two solutions. One is to utilizes udev to instruct
user space to reload the kdump kernel image and initrd, elfcorehdr and etc
again. The other is to only update the elfcorehdr segment introduced in
commit 2472627561 ("crash: add generic infrastructure for crash hotplug
support").
For the 1st solution, the dm crypt keys need to be reloaded again. The
user space can write true to /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_key/reuse
so the stored keys can be re-used.
For the 2nd solution, the dm crypt keys don't need to be reloaded.
Currently, only x86 supports the 2nd solution. If the 2nd solution gets
extended to all arches, this patch can be dropped.

A configfs /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys is provided for user
space to make the dm crypt keys persist for the kdump kernel. Take the
case of dumping to a LUKS-encrypted target as an example, here is the life
cycle of the kdump copies of LUKS volume keys,
1. After the 1st kernel loads the initramfs during boot, systemd uses
an user-input passphrase to de-crypt the LUKS volume keys or simply
TPM-sealed volume keys and then save the volume keys to specified
keyring (using the --link-vk-to-keyring API) and the keys will expire
within specified time.
2. A user space tool (kdump initramfs loader like kdump-utils) create
key items inside /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys to inform
the 1st kernel which keys are needed.
3. When the kdump initramfs is loaded by the kexec_file_load
syscall, the 1st kernel will iterate created key items, save the
keys to kdump reserved memory.
4. When the 1st kernel crashes and the kdump initramfs is booted, the
kdump initramfs asks the kdump kernel to create a user key using the
key stored in kdump reserved memory by writing yes to
/sys/kernel/crash_dm_crypt_keys/restore. Then the LUKS encrypted
device is unlocked with libcryptsetup's --volume-key-keyring API.
5. The system gets rebooted to the 1st kernel after dumping vmcore to
the LUKS encrypted device is finished
Eventually the keys have to stay in the kdump reserved memory for the
kdump kernel to unlock encrypted volumes. During this process, some
measures like letting the keys expire within specified time are desirable
to reduce security risk.
This patch assumes,
1) there are 128 LUKS devices at maximum to be unlocked thus
MAX_KEY_NUM=128.
2) a key description won't exceed 128 bytes thus KEY_DESC_MAX_LEN=128.
And here is a demo on how to interact with

Patch series "Support kdump with LUKS encryption by reusing LUKS volume
keys", v9.
LUKS is the standard for Linux disk encryption, widely adopted by users,
and in some cases, such as Confidential VMs, it is a requirement. With
kdump enabled, when the first kernel crashes, the system can boot into the
kdump/crash kernel to dump the memory image (i.e., /proc/vmcore) to a
specified target. However, there are two challenges when dumping vmcore
to a LUKS-encrypted device:
- Kdump kernel may not be able to decrypt the LUKS partition. For some
machines, a system administrator may not have a chance to enter the
password to decrypt the device in kdump initramfs after the 1st kernel
crashes; For cloud confidential VMs, depending on the policy the
kdump kernel may not be able to unseal the keys with TPM and the
console virtual keyboard is untrusted.
- LUKS2 by default use the memory-hard Argon2 key derivation function
which is quite memory-consuming compared to the limited memory reserved
for kdump. Take Fedora example, by default, only 256M is reserved for
systems having memory between 4G-64G. With LUKS enabled, ~1300M needs
to be reserved for kdump. Note if the memory reserved for kdump can't
be used by 1st kernel i.e. an user sees ~1300M memory missing in the
1st kernel.
Besides users (at least for Fedora) usually expect kdump to work out of
the box i.e. no manual password input or custom crashkernel value is
needed. And it doesn't make sense to derivate the keys again in kdump
kernel which seems to be redundant work.
This patchset addresses the above issues by making the LUKS volume keys
persistent for kdump kernel with the help of cryptsetup's new APIs
(--link-vk-to-keyring/--volume-key-keyring). Here is the life cycle of
the kdump copies of LUKS volume keys,
1. After the 1st kernel loads the initramfs during boot, systemd
use an user-input passphrase to de-crypt the LUKS volume keys
or TPM-sealed key and then save the volume keys to specified keyring
(using the --link-vk-to-keyring API) and the key will expire within
specified time.
2. A user space tool (kdump initramfs loader like kdump-utils) create
key items inside /sys/kernel/config/crash_dm_crypt_keys to inform
the 1st kernel which keys are needed.
3. When the kdump initramfs is loaded by the kexec_file_load
syscall, the 1st kernel will iterate created key items, save the
keys to kdump reserved memory.
4. When the 1st kernel crashes and the kdump initramfs is booted, the
kdump initramfs asks the kdump kernel to create a user key using the
key stored in kdump reserved memory by writing yes to
/sys/kernel/crash_dm_crypt_keys/restore. Then the LUKS encrypted
device is unlocked with libcryptsetup's --volume-key-keyring API.
5. The system gets rebooted to the 1st kernel after dumping vmcore to
the LUKS encrypted device is finished
After libcryptsetup saving the LUKS volume keys to specified keyring,
whoever takes this should be responsible for the safety of these copies of
keys. The keys will be saved in the memory area exclusively reserved for
kdump where even the 1st kernel has no direct access. And further more,
two additional protections are added,
- save the copy randomly in kdump reserved memory as suggested by Jan
- clear the _PAGE_PRESENT flag of the page that stores the copy as
suggested by Pingfan
This patchset only supports x86. There will be patches to support other
architectures once this patch set gets merged.
This patch (of 9):
Currently, kexec_buf is placed in order which means for the same machine,
the info in the kexec_buf is always located at the same position each time
the machine is booted. This may cause a risk for sensitive information
like LUKS volume key. Now struct kexec_buf has a new field random which
indicates it's supposed to be placed in a random position.
Note this feature is enabled only when CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is enabled. So
it only takes effect for kdump and won't impact kexec reboot.

There is no reason to restrict scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl() invocations to
ops.select_cpu() while allowing scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() to be used from
multiple contexts, as both provide equivalent functionality, with the
latter simply accepting an additional "allowed" cpumask.
Therefore, unify the two APIs, enabling both kfuncs to be used from
ops.select_cpu(), ops.enqueue(), and unlocked contexts (e.g., via BPF
test_run).
This allows schedulers to implement a consistent idle CPU selection
policy and helps reduce code duplication.

following sampling-read case.
$ perf record -e "{cycles,cycles}:S" ...
$ perf report -D | grep THROTTLE | tail -2

The second cycles event has a much larger value than the first cycles
event in the same group.
The current throttle logic in the generic code only logs the THROTTLE
event. It relies on the specific driver implementation to disable
events. For all ARCHs, the implementation is similar. Only the event is
disabled, rather than the group.
The logic to disable the group should be generic for all ARCHs. Add the
logic in the generic code. The following patch will remove the buggy
driver-specific implementation.
The throttle only happens when an event is overflowed. Stop the entire
group when any event in the group triggers the throttle.
The MAX_INTERRUPTS is set to all throttle events.
The unthrottled could happen in 3 places.
- event/group sched. All events in the group are scheduled one by one.
All of them will be unthrottled eventually. Nothing needs to be
changed.
- The perf_adjust_freq_unthr_events for each tick. Needs to restart the
group altogether.
- The __perf_event_period(). The whole group needs to be restarted
altogether as well.
With the fix,

The commit dfa0a574cb ("sched/uclamg: Handle delayed dequeue")
has add the sched_delayed check to prevent double uclamp_dec/inc.
However, it put the uclamp_rq_inc() after enqueue_task().
This may lead to the following issues:
When a task with uclamp goes through enqueue_task() and could trigger
cpufreq update, its uclamp won't even be considered in the cpufreq
update. It is only after enqueue will the uclamp be added to rq
buckets, and cpufreq will only pick it up at the next update.
This could cause a delay in frequency updating. It may affect
the performance(uclamp_min > 0) or power(uclamp_max < 1024).
So, just like util_est, put the uclamp_rq_inc() before enqueue_task().
And as for the sched_delayed_task, same as util_est, using the
sched_delayed flag to prevent inc the sched_delayed_task's uclamp,
using the ENQUEUE_DELAYED flag to allow inc the sched_delayed_task's uclamp
which is being woken up.

To prevent double enqueue/dequeue of the util-est for sched_delayed tasks,
commit 729288bc68 ("kernel/sched: Fix util_est accounting for DELAY_DEQUEUE")
added the corresponding check. This check excludes double en/dequeue during
task migration and priority changes.
In fact, these conditions can be simplified.
For util_est_dequeue, we know that sched_delayed flag is set in dequeue_entity.
When the task is sleeping, we need to call util_est_dequeue to subtract
util-est from the cfs_rq. At this point, sched_delayed has not yet been set.
If we find that sched_delayed is already set, it indicates that this task
has already called dequeue_task_fair once. In this case, there is no need to
call util_est_dequeue again. Therefore, simply checking the sched_delayed flag
should be sufficient to prevent unnecessary util_est updates during the dequeue.
For util_est_enqueue, our goal is to add the util_est to the cfs_rq
when task enqueue. However, we don't want to add the util_est of a
sched_delayed task to the cfs_rq because the task is sleeping.
Therefore, we can exclude the util_est_enqueue for sched_delayed tasks
by checking the sched_delayed flag. However, when waking up a delayed task,
the sched_delayed flag is cleared after util_est_enqueue. As a result,
if we only check the sched_delayed flag, we would miss the util_est_enqueue.
Since waking up a sched_delayed task calls enqueue_task with the ENQUEUE_DELAYED flag,
we can determine whether to call util_est_enqueue by checking if the
enqueue_flag contains ENQUEUE_DELAYED.

It is possible to eliminate contention between subsystems when
updating/flushing stats by using subsystem-specific locks. Let the existing
rstat locks be dedicated to the cgroup base stats and rename them to
reflect that. Add similar locks to the cgroup_subsys struct for use with
individual subsystems.
Lock initialization is done in the new function ss_rstat_init(ss) which
replaces cgroup_rstat_boot(void). If NULL is passed to this function, the
global base stat locks will be initialized. Otherwise, the subsystem locks
will be initialized.
Change the existing lock helper functions to accept a reference to a css.
Then within these functions, conditionally select the appropriate locks
based on the subsystem affiliation of the given css. Add helper functions
for this selection routine to avoid repeated code.

Different subsystems may call cgroup_rstat_updated() within the same
cgroup, resulting in a tree of pending updates from multiple subsystems.
When one of these subsystems is flushed via cgroup_rstat_flushed(), all
other subsystems with pending updates on the tree will also be flushed.
Change the paradigm of having a single rstat tree for all subsystems to
having separate trees for each subsystem. This separation allows for
subsystems to perform flushes without the side effects of other subsystems.
As an example, flushing the cpu stats will no longer cause the memory stats
to be flushed and vice versa.
In order to achieve subsystem-specific trees, change the tree node type
from cgroup to cgroup_subsys_state pointer. Then remove those pointers from
the cgroup and instead place them on the css. Finally, change update/flush
functions to make use of the different node type (css). These changes allow
a specific subsystem to be associated with an update or flush. Separate
rstat trees will now exist for each unique subsystem.
Since updating/flushing will now be done at the subsystem level, there is
no longer a need to keep track of updated css nodes at the cgroup level.
The list management of these nodes done within the cgroup (rstat_css_list
and related) has been removed accordingly.
Conditional guards for checking validity of a given css were placed within
css_rstat_updated/flush() to prevent undefined behavior occuring from kfunc
usage in bpf programs. Guards were also placed within css_rstat_init/exit()
in order to help consolidate calls to them. At call sites for all four
functions, the existing guards were removed.

An early init subsystem that attempts to make use of rstat can lead to
failures during early boot. The reason for this is the timing in which the
css's of the root cgroup have css_online() invoked on them. At the point of
this call, there is a stated assumption that a cgroup has "successfully
completed all allocations" [0]. An example of a subsystem that relies on
the previously mentioned assumption [0] is the memory subsystem. Within its
implementation of css_online(), work is queued to asynchronously begin
flushing via rstat. In the early init path for a given subsystem, having
rstat enabled leads to this sequence:
cgroup_init_early()
for_each_subsys(ss, ssid)
if (ss->early_init)
cgroup_init_subsys(ss, true)
cgroup_init_subsys(ss, early_init)
css = ss->css_alloc(...)
init_and_link_css(css, ss, ...)
...
online_css(css)
online_css(css)
ss = css->ss
ss->css_online(css)
Continuing to use the memory subsystem as an example, the issue with this
sequence is that css_rstat_init() has not been called yet. This means there
is now a race between the pending async work to flush rstat and the call to
css_rstat_init(). So a flush can occur within the given cgroup while the
rstat fields are not initialized.
Since we are in the early init phase, the rstat fields cannot be
initialized because they require per-cpu allocations. So it's not possible
to have css_rstat_init() called early enough (before online_css()). This
patch treats the combination of early init and rstat the same as as other
invalid conditions.

This patch reworks these checks to consistently emit a verifier log AND

Creating an irq domain that serves as an MSI parent requires
a substantial amount of esoteric boiler-plate code, some of
which is often provided twice (such as the bus token).
To make things a bit simpler for the unsuspecting MSI tinkerer,
provide a helper that does it for them, and serves as documentation
of what needs to be provided.

irqdomain.c's kernel-doc exists, but is not plugged into Documentation/
yet.
Before plugging it in, fix it first: irq_domain_get_irq_data() and
irq_domain_set_info() were documented twice. Identically, by both
definitions for CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY and !CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY.
Therefore, switch the second kernel-doc into an ordinary comment -- change
"/**" to simple "/*". This avoids sphinx's: WARNING: Duplicate C
declaration
Next, in commit b7b377332b ("irqdomain: Fix the kernel-doc and plug it
into Documentation"), irqdomain.h's (header) kernel-doc was added into
core-api/genericirq.rst. But given the amount of irqdomain functions and
structures, move all these to core-api/irq/irq-domain.rst now.
Finally, add these newly fixed irqdomain.c's (source) docs there as
well.

Currently, the ->gpwrap is not tested (at all per my testing) due to the
requirement of a large delta between a CPU's rdp->gp_seq and its node's
rnp->gpseq.
This results in no testing of ->gpwrap being set. This patch by default
adds 5 minutes of testing with ->gpwrap forced by lowering the delta
between rdp->gp_seq and rnp->gp_seq to just 8 GPs. All of this is
configurable, including the active time for the setting and a full
testing cycle.
By default, the first 25 minutes of a test will have the _default_
behavior there is right now (ULONG_MAX / 4) delta. Then for 5 minutes,
we switch to a smaller delta causing 1-2 wraps in 5 minutes. I believe
this is reasonable since we at least add a little bit of testing for
usecases where ->gpwrap is set.

The rcu_torture_reader() and rcu_torture_fwd_prog_cr() functions
run CPU-bound for extended periods of time (tens or even
hundreds of milliseconds), so they invoke tick_dep_set_task() and
tick_dep_clear_task() to ensure that the scheduling-clock tick helps
move grace periods forward.
So why doesn't rcu_torture_fwd_prog_nr() also invoke tick_dep_set_task()
and tick_dep_clear_task()? Because the point of this function is to test
RCU's ability to (eventually) force grace periods forward even when the
tick has been disabled during long CPU-bound kernel execution.

perf always allocates contiguous AUX pages based on aux_watermark.
However, this contiguous allocation doesn't benefit all PMUs. For
instance, ARM SPE and TRBE operate with virtual pages, and Coresight
ETR allocates a separate buffer. For these PMUs, allocating contiguous
AUX pages unnecessarily exacerbates memory fragmentation. This
fragmentation can prevent their use on long-running devices.
This patch modifies the perf driver to be memory-friendly by default,
by allocating non-contiguous AUX pages. For PMUs requiring contiguous
pages (Intel BTS and some Intel PT), the existing
PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_NO_SG capability can be used. For PMUs that don't
require but can benefit from contiguous pages (some Intel PT), a new
capability, PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_PREFER_LARGE, is added to maintain their
existing behavior.

Affinity-managed interrupts can be shut down and restarted during CPU
hotunplug/plug. Thereby the interrupt may be left in an unexpected state.
Specifically:
1. Interrupt is affine to CPU N
2. disable_irq() -> depth is 1
3. CPU N goes offline
4. irq_shutdown() -> depth is set to 1 (again)
5. CPU N goes online
6. irq_startup() -> depth is set to 0 (BUG! driver expects that the interrupt
still disabled)
7. enable_irq() -> depth underflow / unbalanced enable_irq() warning
This is only a problem for managed interrupts and CPU hotplug, all other
cases like request()/free()/request() truly needs to reset a possibly stale
disable depth value.
Provide a startup function, which takes the disable depth into account, and
invoked it for the managed interrupts in the CPU hotplug path.
This requires to change irq_shutdown() to do a depth increment instead of
setting it to 1, which allows to retain the disable depth, but is harmless
for the other code paths using irq_startup(), which will still reset the
disable depth unconditionally to keep the original correct behaviour.
A kunit tests will be added separately to cover some of these aspects.

There is currently some confusion in the s390x JIT regarding whether
orig_call can be NULL and what that means. Originally the NULL value
was used to distinguish the struct_ops case, but this was superseded by
BPF_TRAMP_F_INDIRECT (see commit 0c970ed2f8 ("s390/bpf: Fix indirect
trampoline generation").
The remaining reason to have this check is that NULL can actually be
passed to the arch_bpf_trampoline_size() call - but not to the
respective arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline()! call - by
bpf_struct_ops_prepare_trampoline().
Remove this asymmetry by passing stub_func to both functions, so that
JITs may rely on orig_call never being NULL.

writes into the created instance, used trace_printk_init_buffers(). But
that function is used to initialize normal trace_printk() and produces the

- Fix preemption count output for stacktrace event
The tracing buffer shows the preempt count level when an event executes.
Because writing the event itself disables preemption, this needs to be
accounted for when recording. The stacktrace event did not account for
this so the output of the stacktrace event showed preemption was disabled
while the event that triggered the stacktrace shows preemption is enabled
and this leads to confusion. Account for preemption being disabled for the
stacktrace event.
The same happened for stack traces triggered by function tracer.
- Fix persistent ring buffer when trace_pipe is used
The ring buffer swaps the reader page with the next page to read from the
write buffer when trace_pipe is used. If there's only a page of data in
the ring buffer, this swap will cause the "commit" pointer (last data
written) to be on the reader page. If more data is written to the buffer,
it is added to the reader page until it falls off back into the write
buffer.
If the system reboots and the commit pointer is still on the reader page,
even if new data was written, the persistent buffer validator will miss
finding the commit pointer because it only checks the write buffer and
does not check the reader page. This causes the validator to fail the
validation and clear the buffer, where the new data is lost.
There was a check for this, but it checked the "head pointer", which was
incorrect, because the "head pointer" always stays on the write buffer and
is the next page to swap out for the reader page. Fix the logic to catch
this case and allow the user to still read the data after reboot.

ring-buffer: Fix persistent buffer when commit page is the reader page
ftrace: Fix preemption accounting for stacktrace filter command
ftrace: Fix preemption accounting for stacktrace trigger command
tracing: samples: Initialize trace_array_printk() with the correct function
The ring buffer is made up of sub buffers (sometimes called pages as they
are by default PAGE_SIZE). It has the following "pages":
"tail page" - this is the page that the next write will write to
"head page" - this is the page that the reader will swap the reader page with.
"reader page" - This belongs to the reader, where it will swap the head
page from the ring buffer so that the reader does not
race with the writer.
The writer may end up on the "reader page" if the ring buffer hasn't
written more than one page, where the "tail page" and the "head page" are
the same.
The persistent ring buffer has meta data that points to where these pages
exist so on reboot it can re-create the pointers to the cpu_buffer
descriptor. But when the commit page is on the reader page, the logic is
incorrect.
The check to see if the commit page is on the reader page checked if the
head page was the reader page, which would never happen, as the head page
is always in the ring buffer. The correct check would be to test if the
commit page is on the reader page. If that's the case, then it can exit
out early as the commit page is only on the reader page when there's only
one page of data in the buffer. There's no reason to iterate the ring
buffer pages to find the "commit page" as it is already found.

Where the buffer on CPU 4 had a "commit page not found" error and that
buffer is cleared and reset causing the output to be empty and the data lost.
When it works correctly, it has:

When using the stacktrace trigger command to trace syscalls, the
preemption count was consistently reported as 1 when the system call
event itself had 0 (".").
For example:
root@ubuntu22-vm:/sys/kernel/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_read
$ echo stacktrace > trigger
$ echo 1 > enable
sshd-416 [002] ..... 232.864910: sys_read(fd: a, buf: 556b1f3221d0, count: 8000)
sshd-416 [002] ...1. 232.864913: <stack trace>
=> ftrace_syscall_enter
=> syscall_trace_enter
=> do_syscall_64
=> entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe
The root cause is that the trace framework disables preemption in __DO_TRACE before
invoking the trigger callback.
Use the tracing_gen_ctx_dec() that will accommodate for the increase of
the preemption count in __DO_TRACE when calling the callback. The result
is the accurate reporting of:
sshd-410 [004] ..... 210.117660: sys_read(fd: 4, buf: 559b725ba130, count: 40000)
sshd-410 [004] ..... 210.117662: <stack trace>
=> ftrace_syscall_enter
=> syscall_trace_enter
=> do_syscall_64
=> entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe

Naked scx_root dereferences are being used as temporary markers to indicate
that they need to be updated to point to the right scheduler instance.

Record trace_clock information in the trace_scratch area and recover
the trace_clock when boot, so that reader can docode the timestamp
correctly.
Note that since most trace_clocks records the timestamp in nano-
seconds, this is not a bug. But some trace_clock, like counter and
tsc will record the counter value. Only for those trace_clock user
needs this information.

Instead of find_first_bit() use the dedicated bitmap_empty(),
and make upper_empty() a nice one-liner.
While there, fix opencoded BITS_PER_TYPE().

In preparation of hierarchical scheduling support, add @sch to scx_exit()
and friends:
- scx_exit/error() updated to take explicit @sch instead of assuming
scx_root.
- scx_kf_exit/error() added. These are to be used from kfuncs, don't take
@sch and internally determine the scx_sched instance to abort. Currently,
it's always scx_root but once multiple scheduler support is in place, it
will be the scx_sched instance that invoked the kfunc. This simplifies
many callsites and defers scx_sched lookup until error is triggered.
- @sch is propagated to ops_cpu_valid() and ops_sanitize_err(). The CPU
validity conditions in ops_cpu_valid() are factored into __cpu_valid() to
implement kf_cpu_valid() which is the counterpart to scx_kf_exit/error().
- All users are converted. Most conversions are straightforward.
check_rq_for_timeouts() and scx_softlockup() are updated to use explicit
rcu_dereference*(scx_root) for safety as they may execute asynchronous to
the exit path. scx_tick() is also updated to use rcu_dereference(). While
not strictly necessary due to the preceding scx_enabled() test and IRQ
disabled context, this removes the subtlety at no noticeable cost.
No behavior changes intended.

__scx_exit() is the base exit implementation and there are three wrappers on
top of it - scx_exit(), __scx_error() and scx_error(). This is more
confusing than helpful especially given that there are only a couple users
of scx_exit() and __scx_error(). To simplify the situation:
- Make __scx_exit() take va_list and rename it to scx_vexit(). This is to
ease implementing more complex extensions on top.
- Make scx_exit() a varargs wrapper around __scx_exit(). scx_exit() now
takes both @kind and @exit_code.
- Convert existing scx_exit() and __scx_error() users to use the new
scx_exit().
- scx_error() remains unchanged.

In preparation of hierarchical scheduling support, make SCX_CALL_OP*() take
explicit @sch instead of assuming scx_root. As scx_root is still the only
scheduler instance, this patch doesn't make any functional changes.

- Always cache scx_root into local variable sch before using.
- Don't use scx_root if cached sch is available.
- Wrap !sch test with unlikely().
- Pass @scx into scx_cgroup_init/exit().
