If print_stack and stop_tracing_us are set, and stop_tracing_us is hit
with latency higher than or equal to print_stack, print the
stack at the IRQ handler as it is useful to define the root cause for
the IRQ latency.

Core
----
- Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with
jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).
- Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
to complete out of order.
- Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).
- Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout
the stack.
- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
allocated per-CPU counters.
- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
BPF
---
- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower
iTLB pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from
getting split.
- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop
the user-mode-driver dependency.
- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
its use as a packet generator.
- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if called
from a hook allowed to sleep.
- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
bits to come later).
- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
kfunc infra.
- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
without BTF info.
- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
Protocols
---------
- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.
- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
behavior.
- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
doubling the performance in some scenarios.
- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
- SMC
- improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
- support auto-corking
- support TCP_NODELAY
- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
- add user space tag control interface
- I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
- Bluetooth:
- handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
- add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
- Multi-Path TCP:
- add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
- lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
Driver API
----------
- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
software interfaces such as tunnels.
- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling
of TCP zero-copy Rx.
- Allow configuring completion queue event size.
- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
- replay and offload of host VLAN entries
- offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
- FDB isolation and unicast filtering

- New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the kernel
describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a byte in a page
mapping that it can check against. A privileged task can then enable that
event like any other event, which will change the mapped byte to true,
telling the user space application to start writing the event to the
tracing buffer.
- Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When set,
the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot up when
the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep the traces that
happened at boot up available even if user space boot up has tracing as
well.

Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum, the user space trace
event parsers can still know how to parse that array.
- Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the

make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not be stuck at

"Three small documentation fixes"
* tag 'docs-5.17-2' of git://git.lwn.net/linux:
Documentation: fix firewire.rst ABI file path error
docs: ftrace: fix ambiguous sentence
docs: staging/tee.rst: fix two typos found while reading
New:
- The Real Time Linux Analysis (RTLA) tool is added to the tools directory.
- Can safely filter on user space pointers with: field.ustring ~ "match-string"
- eprobes can now be filtered like any other event.
- trace_marker(_raw) now uses stream_open() to allow multiple threads to safely
write to it. Note, this could possibly break existing user space, but we will
not know until we hear about it, and then can revert the change if need be.
- New field in events to display when bottom halfs are disabled.
- Sorting of the ftrace functions are now done at compile time instead of
at bootup.
Infrastructure changes to support future efforts:
- Added __rel_loc type for trace events. Similar to __data_loc but the offset
to the dynamic data is based off of the location of the descriptor and not
the beginning of the event. Needed for user defined events.
- Some simplification of event trigger code.
- Make synthetic events process its callback better to not hinder other
event callbacks that are registered. Needed for user defined events.
And other small fixes and clean ups.

Since referencing user space pointers is special, if the user wants to
filter on a field that is a pointer to user space, then they need to
specify it.
Add a ".ustring" attribute to the field name for filters to state that the
field is pointing to user space such that the kernel can take the
appropriate action to read that pointer.

Pingfan reported that the following causes a fault:
echo "filename ~ \"cpu\"" > events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/filter
echo 1 > events/syscalls/sys_enter_at/enable
The reason is that trace event filter treats the user space pointer
defined by "filename" as a normal pointer to compare against the "cpu"
string. The following bug happened:

The above happened because the kernel tried to access user space directly
and triggered a "supervisor read access in kernel mode" fault. Worse yet,
the memory could not even be loaded yet, and a SEGFAULT could happen as
well. This could be true for kernel space accessing as well.
To be even more robust, test both kernel and user space strings. If the
string fails to read, then simply have the filter fail.
Note, TASK_SIZE is used to determine if the pointer is user or kernel space
and the appropriate strncpy_from_kernel/user_nofault() function is used to
copy the memory. For some architectures, the compare to TASK_SIZE may always
pick user space or kernel space. If it gets it wrong, the only thing is that
the filter will fail to match. In the future, this needs to be fixed to have
the event denote which should be used. But failing a filter is much better
than panicing the machine, and that can be solved later.

Currently the histogram logic allows the user to write "cpu" in as an
event field, and it will record the CPU that the event happened on.
The problem with this is that there's a lot of events that have "cpu"
as a real field, and using "cpu" as the CPU it ran on, makes it
impossible to run histograms on the "cpu" field of events.
For example, if I want to have a histogram on the count of the
workqueue_queue_work event on its cpu field, running:
># echo 'hist:keys=cpu' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger
Gives a misleading and wrong result.
Change the command to "common_cpu" as no event should have "common_*"
fields as that's a reserved name for fields used by all events. And
this makes sense here as common_cpu would be a field used by all events.
Now we can even do:
># echo 'hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu if cpu < 100' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger
># cat events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/hist
# event histogram
#
# trigger info: hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu:vals=hitcount:sort=hitcount:size=2048 if cpu < 100 [active]
#
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 7, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 2
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 2
{ common_cpu: 1, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 4
{ common_cpu: 6, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 4
{ common_cpu: 5, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 14
{ common_cpu: 4, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 26
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 0 } hitcount: 39
{ common_cpu: 2, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 184
Now for backward compatibility, I added a trick. If "cpu" is used, and
the field is not found, it will fall back to "common_cpu" and work as
it did before. This way, it will still work for old programs that use
"cpu" to get the actual CPU, but if the event has a "cpu" as a field, it
will get that event's "cpu" field, which is probably what it wants
anyway.
I updated the tracefs/README to include documentation about both the
common_timestamp and the common_cpu. This way, if that text is present in
the README, then an application can know that common_cpu is supported over
just plain "cpu".

The timerlat tracer aims to help the preemptive kernel developers to
found souces of wakeup latencies of real-time threads. Like cyclictest,
the tracer sets a periodic timer that wakes up a thread. The thread then
computes a *wakeup latency* value as the difference between the *current
time* and the *absolute time* that the timer was set to expire. The main
goal of timerlat is tracing in such a way to help kernel developers.
Usage
Write the ASCII text "timerlat" into the current_tracer file of the
tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing).
For example:
[root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
[root@f32 tracing]# echo timerlat > current_tracer
It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file:
[root@f32 tracing]# cat trace

<...>-868 [001] .... 54.030347: #2 context thread timer_latency 4351 ns
The tracer creates a per-cpu kernel thread with real-time priority that
prints two lines at every activation. The first is the *timer latency*
observed at the *hardirq* context before the activation of the thread.
The second is the *timer latency* observed by the thread, which is the
same level that cyclictest reports. The ACTIVATION ID field
serves to relate the *irq* execution to its respective *thread* execution.
The irq/thread splitting is important to clarify at which context
the unexpected high value is coming from. The *irq* context can be
delayed by hardware related actions, such as SMIs, NMIs, IRQs
or by a thread masking interrupts. Once the timer happens, the delay
can also be influenced by blocking caused by threads. For example, by
postponing the scheduler execution via preempt_disable(), by the
scheduler execution, or by masking interrupts. Threads can
also be delayed by the interference from other threads and IRQs.
The timerlat can also take advantage of the osnoise: traceevents.
For example:
[root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
[root@f32 tracing]# echo timerlat > current_tracer
[root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > set_event
[root@f32 tracing]# echo 25 > osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us

In the context of high-performance computing (HPC), the Operating System
Noise (*osnoise*) refers to the interference experienced by an application
due to activities inside the operating system. In the context of Linux,
NMIs, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and any other system thread can cause noise to the
system. Moreover, hardware-related jobs can also cause noise, for example,
via SMIs.
The osnoise tracer leverages the hwlat_detector by running a similar
loop with preemption, SoftIRQs and IRQs enabled, thus allowing all
the sources of *osnoise* during its execution. Using the same approach
of hwlat, osnoise takes note of the entry and exit point of any
source of interferences, increasing a per-cpu interference counter. The
osnoise tracer also saves an interference counter for each source of
interference. The interference counter for NMI, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and
threads is increased anytime the tool observes these interferences' entry
events. When a noise happens without any interference from the operating
system level, the hardware noise counter increases, pointing to a
hardware-related noise. In this way, osnoise can account for any
source of interference. At the end of the period, the osnoise tracer
prints the sum of all noise, the max single noise, the percentage of CPU
available for the thread, and the counters for the noise sources.
Usage
Write the ASCII text "osnoise" into the current_tracer file of the
tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing).
For example::
[root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
[root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > current_tracer
It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file::
[root@f32 tracing]# cat trace

In addition to the regular trace fields (from TASK-PID to TIMESTAMP), the
tracer prints a message at the end of each period for each CPU that is
running an osnoise/CPU thread. The osnoise specific fields report:
- The RUNTIME IN USE reports the amount of time in microseconds that
the osnoise thread kept looping reading the time.
- The NOISE IN US reports the sum of noise in microseconds observed
by the osnoise tracer during the associated runtime.
- The % OF CPU AVAILABLE reports the percentage of CPU available for
the osnoise thread during the runtime window.
- The MAX SINGLE NOISE IN US reports the maximum single noise observed
during the runtime window.
- The Interference counters display how many each of the respective
interference happened during the runtime window.
Note that the example above shows a high number of HW noise samples.
The reason being is that this sample was taken on a virtual machine,
and the host interference is detected as a hardware interference.
Tracer options
The tracer has a set of options inside the osnoise directory, they are:
- osnoise/cpus: CPUs at which a osnoise thread will execute.
- osnoise/period_us: the period of the osnoise thread.
- osnoise/runtime_us: how long an osnoise thread will look for noise.
- osnoise/stop_tracing_us: stop the system tracing if a single noise
higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this
option.
- osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us: stop the system tracing if total noise
higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this
option.
- tracing_threshold: the minimum delta between two time() reads to be
considered as noise, in us. When set to 0, the default value will
be used, which is currently 5 us.
Additional Tracing
In addition to the tracer, a set of tracepoints were added to
facilitate the identification of the osnoise source.
- osnoise:sample_threshold: printed anytime a noise is higher than
the configurable tolerance_ns.
- osnoise:nmi_noise: noise from NMI, including the duration.
- osnoise:irq_noise: noise from an IRQ, including the duration.
- osnoise:softirq_noise: noise from a SoftIRQ, including the
duration.
- osnoise:thread_noise: noise from a thread, including the duration.
Note that all the values are *net values*. For example, if while osnoise
is running, another thread preempts the osnoise thread, it will start a
thread_noise duration at the start. Then, an IRQ takes place, preempting
the thread_noise, starting a irq_noise. When the IRQ ends its execution,
it will compute its duration, and this duration will be subtracted from
the thread_noise, in such a way as to avoid the double accounting of the
IRQ execution. This logic is valid for all sources of noise.
Here is one example of the usage of these tracepoints::
osnoise/8-961 [008] d.h. 5789.857532: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.857529929 duration 1845 ns
osnoise/8-961 [008] dNh. 5789.858408: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.858404871 duration 2848 ns
migration/8-54 [008] d... 5789.858413: thread_noise: migration/8:54 start 5789.858409300 duration 3068 ns
osnoise/8-961 [008] .... 5789.858413: sample_threshold: start 5789.858404555 duration 8723 ns interferences 2
In this example, a noise sample of 8 microseconds was reported in the last
line, pointing to two interferences. Looking backward in the trace, the
two previous entries were about the migration thread running after a
timer IRQ execution. The first event is not part of the noise because
it took place one millisecond before.
It is worth noticing that the sum of the duration reported in the
tracepoints is smaller than eight us reported in the sample_threshold.
The reason roots in the overhead of the entry and exit code that happens
before and after any interference execution. This justifies the dual
approach: measuring thread and tracing.

Implements the per-cpu mode in which a sampling thread is created for
each cpu in the "cpus" (and tracing_mask).
The per-cpu mode has the potention to speed up the hwlat detection by
running on multiple CPUs at the same time, at the cost of higher cpu
usage with irqs disabled. Use with care.

Provides the "mode" config to the hardware latency detector. hwlatd has
two different operation modes. The default mode is the "round-robin" one,
in which a single hwlatd thread runs, migrating among the allowed CPUs in a
"round-robin" fashion. This is the current behavior.
The "none" sets the allowed cpumask for a single hwlatd thread at the
startup, but skips the round-robin, letting the scheduler handle the
migration.
In preparation to the per-cpu mode.

The reason for kprobe::fault_handler(), as given by their comment:
* We come here because instructions in the pre/post
* handler caused the page_fault, this could happen
* if handler tries to access user space by
* copy_from_user(), get_user() etc. Let the
* user-specified handler try to fix it first.
Is just plain bad. Those other handlers are ran from non-preemptible
context and had better use _nofault() functions. Also, there is no
upstream usage of this.

Here is the large set of char/misc/whatever driver subsystem updates for
5.12-rc1. Over time it seems like this tree is collecting more and more
tiny driver subsystems in one place, making it easier for those
maintainers, which is why this is getting larger.
Included in here are:
- coresight driver updates
- habannalabs driver updates
- virtual acrn driver addition (proper acks from the x86
maintainers)
- broadcom misc driver addition
- speakup driver updates
- soundwire driver updates
- fpga driver updates
- amba driver updates
- mei driver updates
- vfio driver updates
- greybus driver updates
- nvmeem driver updates
- phy driver updates
- mhi driver updates
- interconnect driver udpates
- fsl-mc bus driver updates
- random driver fix
- some small misc driver updates (rtsx, pvpanic, etc.)
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with the only reported
issue being a merge conflict in include/linux/mod_devicetable.h that you
will hit in your tree due to the dfl_device_id addition from the fpga
subsystem in here. The resolution should be simple.

For the security reason, normal printk will show the hashed

shows real address for debug. To bridge those outputs, add an
option to switch the output format. Ftrace users can use it

tweewide: Fix most Shebang lines
The major update to this release is that there's a new arch config option called:
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. Currently, only x86_64 enables it.
All the ftrace callbacks now take a struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct
pt_regs. If the architecture has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then
the ftrace_regs will have enough information to read the arguments of the
function being traced, as well as access to the stack pointer. This way, if
a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the arguments, then it
can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback, that puts in enough
information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate a breakpoint exception
(needed for kprobes).
New config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring buffer at
most every event recorded. The "check_buffer()" calls will conflict with
mainline, because I purposely added the check without including the fix that
it caught, which is in mainline. Running a kernel built from the commit of
the added check will trigger it.
Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection to
the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those
callbacks).
Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace to do
it for it (saving on that extra function call).
New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that lists all
the places that triggered the recursion protection of the function tracer.
This will show where things need to be fixed as recursion slows down the
function tracer.
The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a work
queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.
Various clean ups and last minute fixes.

Now that all callbacks are recursion safe, reverse the meaning of the
RECURSION flag and rename it from RECURSION_SAFE to simply RECURSION.
Now only callbacks that request to have recursion protecting it will
have the added trampoline to do so.
Also remove the outdated comment about "PER_CPU" when determining to
use the ftrace_ops_assist_func.

Pull documentation updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
This includes:
- kernel-doc markup fixes
- ReST fixes
- Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of
the docs build toolchain (Sphinx)
After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).
As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
that should be happening along the merge window.
The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.
PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
Sphinx 3.1"

Merge tag 'kernel-clone-v5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull kernel_clone() updates from Christian Brauner:
"During the v5.9 merge window we reworked the process creation
codepaths across multiple architectures. After this work we were only
left with the _do_fork() helper based on the struct kernel_clone_args
calling convention. As was pointed out _do_fork() isn't valid
kernelese especially for a helper that isn't just static.
This series removes the _do_fork() helper and introduces the new
kernel_clone() helper. The process creation cleanup didn't change the
name to something more reasonable mainly because _do_fork() was used
in quite a few places. So sending this as a separate series seemed the
better strategy.
I originally intended to send this early in the v5.9 development cycle
after the merge window had closed but given that this was touching
quite a few places I decided to defer this until the v5.10 merge
window"
* tag 'kernel-clone-v5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux:

Currently, sythetic events only support static string fields such as:
# echo 'test_latency u64 lat; char somename[32]' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
Which is fine, but wastes a lot of space in the event.
It also prevents the most commonly-defined strings in the existing
trace events e.g. those defined using __string(), from being passed to
synthetic events via the trace() action.
With this change, synthetic events with dynamic fields can be defined:
# echo 'test_latency u64 lat; char somename[]' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
And the trace() action can be used to generate events using either
dynamic or static strings:
# echo 'hist:keys=name:lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:onmatch(sys.event).test_latency($lat,name)' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events
The synthetic event dynamic strings are implemented in the same way as
the existing __data_loc strings and appear as such in the format file.
[ <rostedt@goodmis.org>: added __set_synth_event_print_fmt() changes:
I added the following to make it work with trace-cmd. Dynamic strings
must have __get_str() for events in the print_fmt otherwise it can't be
parsed correctly. ]

As tracepoints are discouraged from being added in a header because it can
cause side effects if other tracepoints are in headers, as well as bloat the
kernel as the trace_<tracepoint>() function is not a small inline, the common
workaround is to add a function call that calls a wrapper function in a
C file that then calls the tracepoint. But as function calls add overhead,
this function should only be called when the tracepoint in question is
enabled. To get around this overhead, a static_branch can be used to only
have the tracepoint wrapper get called when the tracepoint is enabled.
Add a tracepoint_enabled(tp) macro that gets passed the name of the
tracepoint, and this becomes a static_branch that is enabled when the
tracepoint is enabled and is a nop when the tracepoint is disabled.

"Last cycle for the Nth time I ran into bugs and quality of
implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily be
fixed because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been digging
into exec and cleanup up what I can.
I don't think I have exec sorted out enough to fix the issues I
started with but I have made some headway this cycle with 4 sets of
changes.
- promised cleanups after introducing exec_update_mutex
- trivial cleanups for exec
- control flow simplifications
- remove the recomputation of bprm->cred
The net result is code that is a bit easier to understand and work
with and a decrease in the number of lines of code (if you don't count
the added tests)"

reach pretty far afield to update document references around the tree;
there should be no actual code changes there. There will be, alas, more of

understand the internals when extending or making use of the hist
triggers for higher-level tools.
This documentation refers to the hist_debug files implemented by
'tracing: Add hist_debug trace event files for histogram debugging' so
users wishing to try out the test examples here should make sure
CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS_DEBUG is enabled.

- The ring buffer is no longer disabled when reading the trace file.
The trace_pipe file was made to be used for live tracing and reading
as it acted like the normal producer/consumer. As the trace file
would not consume the data, the easy way of handling it was to just
disable writes to the ring buffer. This came to a surprise to the
BPF folks who complained about lost events due to reading.
This is no longer an issue. If someone wants to keep the old disabling
there's a new option "pause-on-trace" that can be set.
- New set_ftrace_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will not be traced
by the function tracer. Similar to set_ftrace_pid, which makes the
function tracer only trace those tasks with PIDs in the file, the
set_ftrace_notrace_pid does the reverse.
- New set_event_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will cause events
not to be traced if triggered by a task with a matching PID.
Similar to the set_event_pid file but will not be traced.
Note, sched_waking and sched_switch events may still be trace if
one of the tasks referenced by those events contains a PID that
is allowed to be traced.
Tracing related features:
- New bootconfig option, that is attached to the initrd file.
If bootconfig is on the command line, then the initrd file
is searched looking for a bootconfig appended at the end.
- New GPU tracepoint infrastructure to help the gfx drivers to get
off debugfs (acked by Greg Kroah-Hartman)

The hwlat tracer runs a loop of width time during a given window. It then
reports the max latency over a given threshold and records a timestamp. But
this timestamp is the time after the width has finished, and not the time it
actually triggered.
Record the actual time when the latency was greater than the threshold as
well as the number of times it was greater in a given width per window.

Modify the definitions of the CPU latency QoS trace events to take
one argument (since PM_QOS_CPU_DMA_LATENCY is always passed as the
pm_qos_class argument to them) and update the documentation of them

- PERAMAENT flag to ftrace_ops when attaching a callback to a function
As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable all
attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on live
kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a ftrace_ops
is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it will prevent
ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if ftrace_enabled is already
disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops with PREMANENT flag set from
being registered.
- New register_ftrace_direct(). As eBPF would like to register its own
trampolines to be called by the ftrace nop locations directly,
without going through the ftrace trampoline, this function has been
added. This allows for eBPF trampolines to live along side of
ftrace, perf, kprobe and live patching. It also utilizes the ftrace
enabled_functions file that keeps track of functions that have been
modified in the kernel, to allow for security auditing.
- Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances. Subsystems in
the kernel can now create and destroy their own tracing instances
which allows them to have their own tracing buffer, and be able
to record events without worrying about other users from writing over
their data.
- New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their
seq_buf usage.
- Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space
to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency tracers.
- Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch and
friends.
- More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16)
- Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the
system call trace events.
This along with small clean ups and fixes.

Livepatch uses ftrace for redirection to new patched functions. It means
that if ftrace is disabled, all live patched functions are disabled as
well. Toggling global 'ftrace_enabled' sysctl thus affect it directly.
It is not a problem per se, because only administrator can set sysctl
values, but it still may be surprising.
Introduce PERMANENT ftrace_ops flag to amend this. If the
FTRACE_OPS_FL_PERMANENT is set on any ftrace ops, the tracing cannot be
disabled by disabling ftrace_enabled. Equally, a callback with the flag
set cannot be registered if ftrace_enabled is disabled.

Add immediate value parameter (\1234) support to
probe events. This allows you to specify an immediate
(or dummy) parameter instead of fetching from memory
or register.
This feature looks odd, but imagine when you put a probe
on a code to trace some data. If the code is compiled into
2 instructions and 1 instruction has a value but other has
nothing since it is optimized out.
In that case, you can not fold those into one event, even
if ftrace supported multiple probes on one event.
With this feature, you can set a dummy value like
foo=\deadbeef instead of something like foo=%di.

- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;

- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to

Add kprobe_event= boot parameter to define kprobe events
at boot time.
The definition syntax is similar to tracefs/kprobe_events
interface, but use ',' and ';' instead of ' ' and '\n'
respectively. e.g.
kprobe_event=p,vfs_read,$arg1,$arg2
This puts a probe on vfs_read with argument1 and 2, and
enable the new event.

Support user-space dereference syntax for probe event arguments
to dereference the data-structure or array in user-space.
The syntax is just adding 'u' before an offset value.
+|-u<OFFSET>(<FETCHARG>)
e.g. +u8(%ax), +u0(+0(%si))
For example, if you probe do_sched_setscheduler(pid, policy,
param) and record param->sched_priority, you can add new
probe as below;
p do_sched_setscheduler priority=+u0($arg3)
Note that kprobe event provides this and it doesn't change the
dereference method automatically because we do not know whether
the given address is in userspace or kernel on some archs.
So as same as "ustring", this is an option for user, who has to
carefully choose the dereference method.

Add "ustring" type for fetching user-space string from kprobe event.
User can specify ustring type at uprobe event, and it is same as
"string" for uprobe.
Note that probe-event provides this option but it doesn't choose the
correct type automatically since we have not way to decide the address
is in user-space or not on some arch (and on some other arch, you can
fetch the string by "string" type). So user must carefully check the
target code (e.g. if you see __user on the target variable) and
use this new type.

Patch series "mm: Generalize putback functions"]
putback_inactive_pages() and move_active_pages_to_lru() are almost
similar, so this patchset merges them ina single function.
This patch (of 4):
The patch moves the calculation from putback_inactive_pages() to
shrink_inactive_list(). This makes putback_inactive_pages() looking more
similar to move_active_pages_to_lru().
To do that, we account activated pages in reclaim_stat::nr_activate.
Since a page may change its LRU type from anon to file cache inside
shrink_page_list() (see ClearPageSwapBacked()), we have to account pages
for the both types. So, nr_activate becomes an array.
Previously we used nr_activate to account PGACTIVATE events, but now we
account them into pgactivate variable (since they are about number of
pages in general, not about sum of hpage_nr_pages).
