Pull trace tool updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Tracing:
- Update makefiles for latency-collector and RTLA, using tools/build/
makefiles like perf does, inheriting its benefits. For example,
having a proper way to handle library dependencies.
- The timerlat tracer has an interface for any tool to use. rtla
timerlat tool uses this interface dispatching its own threads as
workload. But, rtla timerlat could also be used for any other
process. So, add 'rtla timerlat -U' option, allowing the timerlat
tool to measure the latency of any task using the timerlat tracer
interface.
Verification:
- Update makefiles for verification/rv, using tools/build/ makefiles
like perf does, inheriting its benefits. For example, having a
proper way to handle dependencies"
* tag 'trace-tools-v6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:
tools/rtla: Add -U/--user-load option to timerlat
tools/verification: Use tools/build makefiles on rv
tools/rtla: Use tools/build makefiles to build rtla
tools/tracing: Use tools/build makefiles on latency-collector

The timerlat tracer provides an interface for any application to wait
for the timerlat's periodic wakeup. Currently, rtla timerlat uses it
to dispatch its user-space workload (-u option).
But as the tracer interface is generic, rtla timerlat can also be used
to monitor any workload that uses it. For example, a user might
place their own workload to wait on the tracer interface, and
monitor the results with rtla timerlat.
Add the -U option to rtla timerlat top and hist. With this option, rtla
timerlat will not dispatch its workload but only setting up the
system, waiting for a user to dispatch its workload.
The sample code in this patch is an example of python application
that loops in the timerlat tracer fd.
To use it, dispatch:
# rtla timerlat -U
In a terminal, then run the python program on another terminal,
specifying the CPU to run it. For example, setting on CPU 1:
#./timerlat_load.py 1
Then rtla timerlat will start printing the statistics of the
./timerlat_load.py app.
An interesting point is that the "Ret user Timer Latency" value
is the overall response time of the load. The sample load does
a memory copy to exemplify that.
The stop tracing options on rtla timerlat works in this setup
as well, including auto analysis.

Use tools/build/ makefiles to build rtla, inheriting the benefits of
it. For example, having a proper way to handle dependencies.
rtla is built using perf infra-structure when building inside the
kernel tree.
At this point, rtla diverges from perf in two points: Documentation
and tarball generation/build.
At the documentation level, rtla is one step ahead, placing the
documentation at Documentation/tools/rtla/, using the same build
tools as kernel documentation. The idea is to move perf
documentation to the same scheme and then share the same makefiles.
rtla has a tarball target that the (old) RHEL8 uses. The tarball was
kept using a simple standalone makefile for compatibility. The
standalone makefile shares most of the code, e.g., flags, with
regular buildings.
The tarball method was set as deprecated. If necessary, we can make
a rtla tarball like perf, which includes the entire tools/build.
But this would also require changes in the user side (the directory
structure changes, and probably the deps to build the package).
Inspired on perf and objtool.

Use tools/build/ makefiles to build latency-collector, inheriting
the benefits of it. For example: Before this patch, a missing
tracefs/traceevents headers will result in fail like this:
~/linux/tools/tracing/latency $ make
cc -Wall -Wextra -g -O2 -o latency-collector latency-collector.c -lpthread
latency-collector.c:26:10: fatal error: tracefs.h: No such file or directory
26 | #include <tracefs.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make: *** [Makefile:14: latency-collector] Error 1
Which is not that helpful. After this change it reports:
~/linux/tools/tracing/latency# make
Auto-detecting system features:
... libtraceevent: [ OFF ]
... libtracefs: [ OFF ]
libtraceevent is missing. Please install libtraceevent-dev/libtraceevent-devel
libtracefs is missing. Please install libtracefs-dev/libtracefs-devel
Makefile.config:29: *** Please, check the errors above.. Stop.
This type of output is common across other tools in tools/ like perf
and objtool.

Pull ktest updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Allow variables to contain variables. This makes the shell commands
have a bit more flexibility to reuse existing variables.
- Have make_warnings_file in build-only mode require limited variables
The make_warnings_file test will create a file with all existing
warnings (which can be used to compare against in builds with new
commits). Add it to the build-only list that doesn't require other
variables (like how to reset a machine), as the make_warnings_file
makes the most sense on build only tests.

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"

User_events now has multi-format events which allow for the same
register name, but with different formats. When this occurs, different
tracepoints are created with unique names.
Add a new test that ensures the same name can be used for two different
formats. Ensure they are isolated from each other and that name and arg
matching still works if yet another register comes in with the same
format as one of the two.

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
1GiB). KVM doesn't support yielding in the middle of processing a
zap, and 1GiB granularity resulted in multi-millisecond lags that
are quite impolite for CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels
- Allocate write-tracking metadata on-demand to avoid the memory
overhead when a kernel is built with i915 virtualization support
but the workloads use neither shadow paging nor i915 virtualization
- Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the
emulator that triggered KMSAN false positives
- Fix the debugregs ABI for 32-bit KVM
- Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code
ultimately decides how and when to force the exit, which allowed
some optimization for both Intel and AMD
- Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left
elevated if vCPU creation ultimately failed, causing extra
unnecessary work
- Cleanup the logic for checking if the currently loaded vCPU is
in-kernel
- Harden against underflowing the active mmu_notifier invalidation
count, so that "bad" invalidations (usually due to bugs elsehwere
in the kernel) are detected earlier and are less likely to hang the
kernel
x86 Xen emulation:
- Overlay pages can now be cached based on host virtual address,
instead of guest physical addresses. This removes the need to
reconfigure and invalidate the cache if the guest changes the gpa
but the underlying host virtual address remains the same
- When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the
deadline for Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the
timer emulation
- Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its
APIC to fix a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's
behavior)
- Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ
delivery of Xen events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC
IDs
RISC-V:
- Support exception and interrupt handling in selftests
- New self test for RISC-V architectural timer (Sstc extension)
- New extension support (Ztso, Zacas)
- Support userspace emulation of random number seed CSRs
ARM:
- Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the
architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID
registers
- Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to
x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with
assigned devices that can tolerate it
- Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized
to address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI
injection path
- Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through
the absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register
- Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and
selftests
LoongArch:
- Set reserved bits as zero in CPUCFG
- Start SW timer only when vcpu is blocking
- Do not restart SW timer when it is expired
- Remove unnecessary CSR register saving during enter guest
- Misc cleanups and fixes as usual
Generic:
- Clean up Kconfig by removing CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, which was basically
always true on all architectures except MIPS (where Kconfig
determines the available depending on CPU capabilities). It is
replaced either by an architecture-dependent symbol for MIPS, and
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM) everywhere else
- Factor common "select" statements in common code instead of
requiring each architecture to specify it
- Remove thoroughly obsolete APIs from the uapi headers
- Move architecture-dependent stuff to uapi/asm/kvm.h
- Always flush the async page fault workqueue when a work item is
being removed, especially during vCPU destruction, to ensure that
there are no workers running in KVM code when all references to
KVM-the-module are gone, i.e. to prevent a very unlikely
use-after-free if kvm.ko is unloaded
- Grab a reference to the VM's mm_struct in the async #PF worker
itself instead of gifting the worker a reference, so that there's
no need to remember to *conditionally* clean up after the worker
Selftests:
- Reduce boilerplate especially when utilize selftest TAP
infrastructure
- Add basic smoke tests for SEV and SEV-ES, along with a pile of
library support for handling private/encrypted/protected memory
- Fix benign bugs where tests neglect to close() guest_memfd files"

The test type "make_warnings_file" should have no mandatory configuration
parameters other than the ones required by the "build" test type, because
its purpose is to create a file with build warnings that may or may not be
used by other subsequent tests. Currently, the only way to use it as a
stand-alone test is by setting POWER_CYCLE, CONSOLE, SSH_USER,
BUILD_TARGET, TARGET_IMAGE, REBOOT_TYPE and GRUB_MENU.

Allow a variable to contain another variable. This will allow the

$(shell ...) expands to the output of the command. It expands to the
empty string when the command does not print anything to stdout.
Hence, $(shell mkdir ...) is sufficient and does not need any
variable assignment in front of it.
Commit c2bd08ba20a5 ("treewide: remove meaningless assignments in

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:
"x86 kprobes:
- Use boolean for some function return instead of 0 and 1
- Prohibit probing on INT/UD. This prevents user to put kprobe on
INTn/INT1/INT3/INTO and UD0/UD1/UD2 because these are used for a
special purpose in the kernel
- Boost Grp instructions. Because a few percent of kernel
instructions are Grp 2/3/4/5 and those are safe to be executed
without ip register fixup, allow those to be boosted (direct
execution on the trampoline buffer with a JMP)
tracing:
- Add function argument access from return events (kretprobe and
fprobe). This allows user to compare how a data structure field is
changed after executing a function. With BTF, return event also
accepts function argument access by name.
- Fix a wrong comment (using "Kretprobe" in fprobe)
- Cleanup a big probe argument parser function into three parts, type
parser, post-processing function, and main parser
- Cleanup to set nr_args field when initializing trace_probe instead
of counting up it while parsing
- Cleanup a redundant #else block from tracefs/README source code

Pull lsm fixes from Paul Moore:
"Two fixes to address issues with the LSM syscalls that we shipped in
Linux v6.8. The first patch might be a bit controversial, but the
second is a rather straightforward fix; more on both below.
The first fix from Casey addresses a problem that should have been
caught during the ~16 month (?) review cycle, but sadly was not. The
good news is that Dmitry caught it very quickly once Linux v6.8 was
released. The core issue is the use of size_t parameters to pass
buffer sizes back and forth in the syscall; while we could have solved
this with a compat syscall definition, given the newness of the
syscalls I wanted to attempt to just redefine the size_t parameters as
u32 types and avoid the work associated with a set of compat syscalls.
However, this is technically a change in the syscall's signature/API
so I can understand if you're opposed to this, even if the syscalls
are less than a week old.
[ Fingers crossed nobody even notices - Linus ]
The second fix is a rather trivial fix to allow userspace to call into
the lsm_get_self_attr() syscall with a NULL buffer to quickly
determine a minimum required size for the buffer. We do have
kselftests for this very case, I'm not sure why I didn't notice the
failure; I'm going to guess stupidity, tired eyes, I dunno. My
apologies we didn't catch this earlier"
