The "d_iname" member was replaced with "d_shortname.string" in the commit
referenced in the Fixes tag. This prevented the GDB script "lx-mount"
command to properly function:

Using lx-symbols during s390 early boot fails with:
Error occurred in Python: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xcb in position 0: invalid continuation byte
The reason is that s390 decompressor's startup_kernel() does not create
vmcoreinfo note, and sets vmcore_info to kernel's physical base. This
confuses get_vmcore_s390().
Fix by handling this special case. Extract vm_layout.kaslr_offset from
the kernel image in physical memory, which is placed there by the
decompressor using the __bootdata_preserved mechanism, and generate a
synthetic vmcoreinfo note from it.

Patch series "scripts/gdb/symbols: determine KASLR offset on s390 during
early boot".
I noticed that debugging s390 early boot using the support I introduced in
commit 28939c3e9925 ("scripts/gdb/symbols: determine KASLR offset on
s390") does not work.
The reason is that decompressor does not provide the vmcoreinfo note, so
KASLR offset needs to be extracted in a different way, which this series
implements. Patches 1-2 are trivial refactorings, and patch 3 is the
implementation.
This patch (of 3):
Move the code that determines the current vmlinux file into a separate
function. It will be useful later in order to analyze the kernel image in
physical memory during s390 early boot.

Dynamic memory layout is used by KASLR and 5-level paging.
CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL is going to be removed, making 5-level paging support
unconditional which requires unconditional support of dynamic memory

Commit db08c53fdd542bb7f83b ("scripts/gdb: fix parameter handling in
$lx_per_cpu") changed the parameter handling of lx_per_cpu to use GdbValue
instead of parsing the variable name. Update the documentation to reflect
the new lx_per_cpu usage. Update the hrtimer_bases example to use rb_tree
instead of the timerqueue_head.next pointer removed in commit
511885d7061eda3eb1fa ("lib/timerqueue: Rely on rbtree semantics for next
timer").

Patch series "scripts/gdb: Fixes related to lx_per_cpu()".
These patches (1) fix kgdb detection on systems featuring a single CPU and
(2) update the documentation to reflect the current usage of lx_per_cpu()
and update an outdated example of its usage.
This patch (of 2):
When requested the list of threads via qfThreadInfo, gdb_cmd_query in
kernel/debug/gdbstub.c first returns "shadow" threads for CPUs followed by
the actual tasks in the system. Extended qThreadExtraInfo queries yield
"shadowCPU%d" as the name for the CPU core threads.
This behavior is used by get_gdbserver_type() to probe for KGDB by
matching the name for the thread 2 against "shadowCPU". This breaks down
on single-core systems, where thread 2 is the first nonshadow thread.
Request the name for thread 1 instead.
As GDB assigns thread IDs in the order of their appearance, it is safe to
assume shadowCPU0 at ID 1 as long as CPU0 is not hotplugged.
Before:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame

When loading symbols from kernel modules we used to iterate
from 0 to module_sect_attrs::nsections, in order to
retrieve their name and address.
However module_sect_attrs::nsections has been removed from
the struct by a previous commit.
Re-arrange the iteration by accessing all items in
module_sect_attrs::grp::bin_attrs[] until NULL is found
(it's a NULL terminated array).
At the same time the symbol address cannot be extracted
from module_sect_attrs::attrs[]::address anymore because
it has also been deleted. Fetch it from
module_sect_attrs::grp::bin_attrs[]::private as described
in 4b2c11e4aaf7.

We currently have $lx_per_cpu() which works fine for stuff that kernel
code would access via per_cpu(). But this doesn't work for stuff that
kernel code accesses via per_cpu_ptr():
(gdb) p $lx_per_cpu(node_data[1].node_zones[2]->per_cpu_pageset)
Cannot access memory at address 0xffff11105fbd6c28
This is because we take the address of the pointer and use that as the
offset, instead of using the stored value.
Add a GDB version that mirrors the kernel API, which uses the pointer
value.
To be consistent with per_cpu_ptr(), we need to return the pointer value
instead of dereferencing it for the user. Therefore, move the existing
dereference out of the per_cpu() Python helper and do that only in the
$lx_per_cpu() implementation.

Recently we went through the source tree and replaced
$(srctree)/$(src) w/ $(src). However, the gdb scripts Makefile had a
hidden $(srctree)/$(src) that looked like this:
$(abspath $(srctree))/$(src)
Because we missed that then my installed kernel had symlinks that
looked like this:
__init__.py ->
${INSTALL_DIR}/$(INSTALL_DIR}/scripts/gdb/linux/__init__.py
Let's also replace the midden $(abspath $(srctree))/$(src) with
$(src). Now:
__init__.py ->

Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:
src := $(obj)
When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.
This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.
To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.
Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:
$(obj) - directory in the object tree
$(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit)
$(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
$(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree
Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

Directly read the current CPU number from the kgdb_active variable.
Before, the active CPU was obtained through the current task, which
required searching the task list for the pid of GDB's selected thread.
Obtaining the pid was buggy: GDB may use selected_thread().ptid[1] (LWPID)
instead of .ptid[2] (TID) to store the threads pid; see
https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb.html/Threads-In-Python.html
As a result, the detection could return the wrong CPU number, leading to
incorrect results for $lx_per_cpu and $lx_current.
As a side effect, the patch significantly speeds up $lx_per_cpu and
$lx_current in KGDB by avoiding the task-list iteration.

Before, the script tried to get the address by constructing a pointer to
the parameter (by name). However, since GDB now passes the parameter as a

through GdbValue's address attribute.

Patch series "scripts/gdb: Fixes for $lx_current and $lx_per_cpu".
This series fixes several bugs in the GDB scripts related to the
$lx_current and $lx_per_cpu functions. The changes were tested with GDB
10, 11, 12, 13, and 14.
Patch 1 fixes false-negative results when probing for KGDB
Patch 2 fixes the $lx_per_cpu function, which is currently non-functional
in QEMU-GDB and KGDB.
Patch 3 fixes an additional bug in $lx_per_cpu that occurs with KGDB.
Patch 4 fixes the incorrect detection of the current CPU number in KGDB,
which silently breaks $lx_per_cpu and $lx_current.
This patch (of 4):
The KGDB probe function sometimes failed to detect KGDB for SMP machines
as it assumed that task 2 (kthreadd) is running on CPU 0, which is not
necessarily the case. Now, the detection is agnostic to kthreadd's CPU.

The irq_desc::kstat_irqs member is a per-CPU variable of type int, which is
only capable of counting. A snapshot mechanism for interrupt statistics
will be added soon, which requires an additional variable to store the
snapshot.
To facilitate expansion, convert kstat_irqs here to a struct containing
only the count.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"S390:
- Changes to FPU handling came in via the main s390 pull request
- Only deliver to the guest the SCLP events that userspace has
requested
- More virtual vs physical address fixes (only a cleanup since
virtual and physical address spaces are currently the same)
- Fix selftests undefined behavior
x86:
- Fix a restriction that the guest can't program a PMU event whose
encoding matches an architectural event that isn't included in the
guest CPUID. The enumeration of an architectural event only says
that if a CPU supports an architectural event, then the event can
be programmed *using the architectural encoding*. The enumeration
does NOT say anything about the encoding when the CPU doesn't
report support the event *in general*. It might support it, and it
might support it using the same encoding that made it into the
architectural PMU spec
- Fix a variety of bugs in KVM's emulation of RDPMC (more details on
individual commits) and add a selftest to verify KVM correctly
emulates RDMPC, counter availability, and a variety of other
PMC-related behaviors that depend on guest CPUID and therefore are
easier to validate with selftests than with custom guests (aka
kvm-unit-tests)
- Zero out PMU state on AMD if the virtual PMU is disabled, it does
not cause any bug but it wastes time in various cases where KVM
would check if a PMC event needs to be synthesized
- Optimize triggering of emulated events, with a nice ~10%
performance improvement in VM-Exit microbenchmarks when a vPMU is
exposed to the guest
- Tighten the check for "PMI in guest" to reduce false positives if
an NMI arrives in the host while KVM is handling an IRQ VM-Exit
- Fix a bug where KVM would report stale/bogus exit qualification
information when exiting to userspace with an internal error exit
code
- Add a VMX flag in /proc/cpuinfo to report 5-level EPT support
- Rework TDP MMU root unload, free, and alloc to run with mmu_lock
held for read, e.g. to avoid serializing vCPUs when userspace
deletes a memslot
- Tear down TDP MMU page tables at 4KiB granularity (used to be
