Allow users to disable kernel warnings for unaligned memory
accesses from kernel via the /proc/sys/kernel/ignore-unaligned-usertrap
procfs entry.
That way users can disable those warnings in case they happen too
often.

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.
The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120 224 260 PASS
test_bpf: #141 ALU_DIV_X: 4294967295 / 4294967295 = 1 jited:0 238 PASS
test_bpf: #141 ALU_DIV_X: 4294967295 / 4294967295 = 1 jited:1 23 PASS
test_bpf: #776 JMP32_JGE_K: all ... magnitudes jited:0 2034681 PASS
test_bpf: #776 JMP32_JGE_K: all ... magnitudes jited:1 1020022 PASS
Deployment and structure
------------------------
The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":
- bpf_jit.h -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic
The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".
1. Normal pass # The necessary pass
1a. Dry run # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
1b. Emit phase # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
2a. Patch relocations
Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:
- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)
The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:
hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf
test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]
All the failing test cases are due to the ones that were not JIT'ed.
Categorically, they can be represented as:
.-----------.------------.-------------.
| test type | opcodes | # of cases |
|-----------+------------+-------------|
| atomic | 0xC3, 0xDB | 149 |
| div64 | 0x37, 0x3F | 22 |
| mod64 | 0x97, 0x9F | 15 |
`-----------^------------+-------------|
| (total) 186 |
`-------------'
Setup: build config
-------------------
The following configs must be set to have a working JIT test:
CONFIG_BPF_JIT=y
CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y
CONFIG_TEST_BPF=m
The following options are not necessary for the tests module,
but are good to have:
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y # prerequisite for below
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y # so bpftool can generate vmlinux.h
CONFIG_FTRACE=y #
CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL=y # all these options lead to
CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS=y # having CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS=y
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y #
Some BPF programs provide data through /sys/kernel/debug:
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y
arc# mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug
Setup: elfutils
---------------
The libdw.{so,a} library that is used by pahole for processing
the final binary must come from elfutils 0.189 or newer. The
support for ARCv2 [1] has been added since that version.
[1]
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=elfutils.git;a=commit;h=de3d46b3e7
Setup: pahole
-------------
The line below in linux/scripts/Makefile.btf must be commented out:
pahole-flags-$(call test-ge, $(pahole-ver), 121) += --btf_gen_floats
Or else, the build will fail:
$ make V=1
...
BTF .btf.vmlinux.bin.o
pahole -J --btf_gen_floats \
-j --lang_exclude=rust \
--skip_encoding_btf_inconsistent_proto \
--btf_gen_optimized .tmp_vmlinux.btf
Complex, interval and imaginary float types are not supported
Encountered error while encoding BTF.
...
BTFIDS vmlinux
./tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids vmlinux
libbpf: failed to find '.BTF' ELF section in vmlinux
FAILED: load BTF from vmlinux: No data available
This is due to the fact that the ARC toolchains generate
"complex float" DIE entries in libgcc and at the moment, pahole
can't handle such entries.
Running the tests
-----------------
host$ scp /bld/linux/lib/test_bpf.ko arc:
arc # sysctl net.core.bpf_jit_enable=1
arc # insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf
...
test_bpf: #1048 Staggered jumps: JMP32_JSLE_X jited:1 697811 PASS
test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

- Yuriy Kolerov for testing and troubleshooting
- Vladimir Isaev for the pahole workaround
- Sergey Matyukevich for paving the road by adding the interpreter support

Introduce CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING which provides definitions to easily
instrument memory allocators. It registers an "alloc_tags" codetag type
with /proc/allocinfo interface to output allocation tag information when
the feature is enabled.
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is provided for debugging the memory
allocation profiling instrumentation.
Memory allocation profiling can be enabled or disabled at runtime using
/proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling sysctl when CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=n.
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT enables memory allocation
profiling by default.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Main user visible change:
- User events can now have "multi formats"
The current user events have a single format. If another event is
created with a different format, it will fail to be created. That
is, once an event name is used, it cannot be used again with a
different format. This can cause issues if a library is using an
event and updates its format. An application using the older format
will prevent an application using the new library from registering
its event.
A task could also DOS another application if it knows the event
names, and it creates events with different formats.
The multi-format event is in a different name space from the single
format. Both the event name and its format are the unique
identifier. This will allow two different applications to use the
same user event name but with different payloads.
- Added support to have ftrace_dump_on_oops dump out instances and
not just the main top level tracing buffer.
Other changes:
- Add eventfs_root_inode
Only the root inode has a dentry that is static (never goes away)
and stores it upon creation. There's no reason that the thousands
of other eventfs inodes should have a pointer that never gets set
in its descriptor. Create a eventfs_root_inode desciptor that has a
eventfs_inode descriptor and a dentry pointer, and only the root
inode will use this.
- Added WARN_ON()s in eventfs
There's some conditionals remaining in eventfs that should never be
hit, but instead of removing them, add WARN_ON() around them to
make sure that they are never hit.
- Have saved_cmdlines allocation also include the map_cmdline_to_pid
array
The saved_cmdlines structure allocates a large amount of data to
hold its mappings. Within it, it has three arrays. Two are already
apart of it: map_pid_to_cmdline[] and saved_cmdlines[]. More memory
can be saved by also including the map_cmdline_to_pid[] array as
well.
- Restructure __string() and __assign_str() macros used in
TRACE_EVENT()
Dynamic strings in TRACE_EVENT() are declared with:
__string(name, source)
And assigned with:
__assign_str(name, source)
In the tracepoint callback of the event, the __string() is used to
get the size needed to allocate on the ring buffer and
__assign_str() is used to copy the string into the ring buffer.
There's a helper structure that is created in the TRACE_EVENT()
macro logic that will hold the string length and its position in
the ring buffer which is created by __string().
There are several trace events that have a function to create the
string to save. This function is executed twice. Once for
__string() and again for __assign_str(). There's no reason for
this. The helper structure could also save the string it used in
__string() and simply copy that into __assign_str() (it also
already has its length).
By using the structure to store the source string for the
assignment, it means that the second argument to __assign_str() is
no longer needed.
It will be removed in the next merge window, but for now add a
warning if the source string given to __string() is different than
the source string given to __assign_str(), as the source to
__assign_str() isn't even used and will be going away.
- Added checks to make sure that the source of __string() is also the
source of __assign_str() so that it can be safely removed in the
next merge window.
Included fixes that the above check found.
- Other minor clean ups and fixes"

Currently ftrace only dumps the global trace buffer on an OOPs. For
debugging a production usecase, instance trace will be helpful to
check specific problems since global trace buffer may be used for
other purposes.
This patch extend the ftrace_dump_on_oops parameter to dump a specific
or multiple trace instances:
- ftrace_dump_on_oops=0: as before -- don't dump
- ftrace_dump_on_oops[=1]: as before -- dump the global trace buffer
on all CPUs
- ftrace_dump_on_oops=2 or =orig_cpu: as before -- dump the global
trace buffer on CPU that triggered the oops
- ftrace_dump_on_oops=<instance_name>: new behavior -- dump the
tracing instance matching <instance_name>
- ftrace_dump_on_oops[=2/orig_cpu],<instance1_name>[=2/orig_cpu],
<instrance2_name>[=2/orig_cpu]: new behavior -- dump the global trace
buffer and multiple instance buffer on all CPUs, or only dump on CPU
that triggered the oops if =2 or =orig_cpu is given
Also, the sysctl node can handle the input accordingly.

This patch adds /proc/sys/net/core/mem_pcpu_rsv sysctl file,
to make SK_MEMORY_PCPU_RESERV tunable.
Commit 3cd3399dd7a8 ("net: implement per-cpu reserves for
memory_allocated") introduced per-cpu forward alloc cache:
"Implement a per-cpu cache of +1/-1 MB, to reduce number
of changes to sk->sk_prot->memory_allocated, which
would otherwise be cause of false sharing."
sk_prot->memory_allocated points to global atomic variable:
atomic_long_t tcp_memory_allocated ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp;
If increasing the per-cpu cache size from 1MB to e.g. 16MB,
changes to sk->sk_prot->memory_allocated can be further reduced.
Performance may be improved on system with many cores.

For debugging kernel panics and other bugs, there is already an option of
panic_print to dump all tasks' call stacks. On today's large servers
running many containers, there could be thousands of tasks or more, and
this will print out huge amount of call stacks, taking a lot of time (for
serial console which is main target user case of panic_print).
And in many cases, only those several tasks being blocked are key for the
panic, so add an option to only dump blocked tasks' call stacks.

After 25b21cb2f6d6 ("[PATCH] IPC namespace core") and 4e9823111bdc
("[PATCH] IPC namespace - shm") the shared memory page count stopped being
global and started counting per ipc namespace. The documentation and
shmget(2) still says that shmall is a global option.
shmget(2):
SHMALL System-wide limit on the total amount of shared memory, measured in
units of the system page size. On Linux, this limit can be read and
modified via /proc/sys/kernel/shmall.
I think the changes made in 2006 should be documented.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by a
route attribute.
- Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send
a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance
on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).
- The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler:
- add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling
- support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR)
- improve inactive flow reporting
- optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality
- Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern
replacement for the old MD5 option.
- Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to
TCP_INFO.
- Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets.
- Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was
shutdown().
- Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router
Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft.
- Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode.
- Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable.
- Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps
limit the number of wakeups.
- Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user
space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire
table.
- Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver.
- Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks.
- Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were
created via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at
runtime.
- Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different
filters.
- MCTP over I3C.
BPF:
- Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic of
the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode.
- Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should never
be true but are hard for the verifier to infer. With some extra
flexibility around handling of the exit / failure:
https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/
- Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing
per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on the
value for the current CPU.
This allows to deprecate local one-off implementations of per-CPU
storage like BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps.
- Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is
for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows
running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs
of different services.
- Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion
made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs.
- Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support. One of the
use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF.
- Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup().
- Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.
- Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and
fentry/fexit programs.
- Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed
kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.
- Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.
- Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.
Changes to common code:
- overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with
flexible array members.
- Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.
Driver API:
- Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy
mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.
- Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and
querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in
network time distribution.
- Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code.
Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.
- Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().
- Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve
correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC
addresses.
- Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames.
- Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule().
- Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages.
Misc:
- A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric.
- A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees.
- A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes.
- Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers.
- Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core.

on the platform
The 'sched_energy_aware' sysctl is available for the admin to disable/enable
energy aware scheduling(EAS). EAS is enabled only if few conditions are
met by the platform. They are, asymmetric CPU capacity, no SMT,
schedutil CPUfreq governor, frequency invariant load tracking etc.
A platform may boot without EAS capability, but could gain such
capability at runtime. For example, changing/registering the cpufreq
governor to schedutil.
At present, though platform doesn't support EAS, this sysctl returns 1
and it ends up calling build_perf_domains on write to 1 and
NOP when writing to 0. That is confusing and un-necessary.
Desired behavior would be to have this sysctl to enable/disable the EAS
on supported platform. On non-supported platform write to the sysctl
would return not supported error and read of the sysctl would return
empty. So sched_energy_aware returns empty - EAS is not possible at this moment
This will include EAS capable platforms which have at least one EAS
condition false during startup, e.g. not using the schedutil cpufreq governor
sched_energy_aware returns 0 - EAS is supported but disabled by admin.
sched_energy_aware returns 1 - EAS is supported and enabled.
User can find out the reason why EAS is not possible by checking
info messages. sched_is_eas_possible returns true if the platform
can do EAS at this moment.

Introduce a new sysctl (io_uring_disabled) which can be either 0, 1, or
2. When 0 (the default), all processes are allowed to create io_uring
instances, which is the current behavior. When 1, io_uring creation is
disabled (io_uring_setup() will fail with -EPERM) for unprivileged
processes not in the kernel.io_uring_group group. When 2, calls to
