2025-08-07perf bpf-filter: Enable events manuallyIlya Leoshkevich
On s390, and, in general, on all platforms where the respective event supports auxiliary data gathering, the command: # ./perf record -u 0 -aB --synth=no -- ./perf test -w thloop [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.011 MB perf.data ] # ./perf report --stats | grep SAMPLE # does not generate samples in the perf.data file. On x86 the command: # sudo perf record -e intel_pt// -u 0 ls is broken too. Looking at the sequence of calls in 'perf record' reveals this behavior: 1. The event 'cycles' is created and enabled: record__open() +-> evlist__apply_filters() +-> perf_bpf_filter__prepare() +-> bpf_program.attach_perf_event() +-> bpf_program.attach_perf_event_opts() +-> __GI___ioctl(..., PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, ...) The event 'cycles' is enabled and active now. However the event's ring-buffer to store the samples generated by hardware is not allocated yet. 2. The event's fd is mmap()ed to create the ring buffer: record__open() +-> record__mmap() +-> record__mmap_evlist() +-> evlist__mmap_ex() +-> perf_evlist__mmap_ops() +-> mmap_per_cpu() +-> mmap_per_evsel() +-> mmap__mmap() +-> perf_mmap__mmap() +-> mmap() This allocates the ring buffer for the event 'cycles'. With mmap() the kernel creates the ring buffer: perf_mmap(): kernel function to create the event's ring | buffer to save the sampled data. | +-> ring_buffer_attach(): Allocates memory for ring buffer. | The PMU has auxiliary data setup function. The | has_aux(event) condition is true and the PMU's | stop() is called to stop sampling. It is not | restarted: | | if (has_aux(event)) | perf_event_stop(event, 0); | +-> cpumsf_pmu_stop(): Hardware sampling is stopped. No samples are generated and saved anymore. 3. After the event 'cycles' has been mapped, the event is enabled a second time in: __cmd_record() +-> evlist__enable() +-> __evlist__enable() +-> evsel__enable_cpu() +-> perf_evsel__enable_cpu() +-> perf_evsel__run_ioctl() +-> perf_evsel__ioctl() +-> __GI___ioctl(., PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, .) The second ioctl(fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0); is just a NOP in this case. The first invocation in (1.) sets the event::state to PERF_EVENT_STATE_ACTIVE. The kernel functions perf_ioctl() +-> _perf_ioctl() +-> _perf_event_enable() +-> __perf_event_enable() return immediately because event::state is already set to PERF_EVENT_STATE_ACTIVE. This happens on s390, because the event 'cycles' offers the possibility to save auxilary data. The PMU callbacks setup_aux() and free_aux() are defined. Without both callback functions, cpumsf_pmu_stop() is not invoked and sampling continues. To remedy this, remove the first invocation of ioctl(..., PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, ...). in step (1.) Create the event in step (1.) and enable it in step (3.) after the ring buffer has been mapped.

2025-08-07libbpf: Add the ability to suppress perf event enablementIlya Leoshkevich
Automatically enabling a perf event after attaching a BPF prog to it is not always desirable. Add a new "dont_enable" field to struct bpf_perf_event_opts. While introducing "enable" instead would be nicer in that it would avoid a double negation in the implementation, it would make DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS() less efficient.

The main fix is to prevent VMA splits by implementing the [may_]split() callback for vm operations. The other issues are addressed by rearranging code, early returns on failure and invocation of cleanups. Also provide a selftest to validate the fixes.

2025-08-05net: Update threaded state in napi config in netif_set_threadedSamiullah Khawaja
Commit 2677010e7793 ("Add support to set NAPI threaded for individual NAPI") added support to enable/disable threaded napi using netlink. This also extended the napi config save/restore functionality to set the napi threaded state. This breaks netdev reset for drivers that use napi threaded at device level and also use napi config save/restore on napi_disable/napi_enable. Basically on netdev with napi threaded enabled at device level, a napi_enable call will get stuck trying to stop the napi kthread. This is because the napi->config->threaded is set to disabled when threaded is enabled at device level. The issue can be reproduced on virtio-net device using qemu. To reproduce the issue run following, echo 1 > /sys/class/net/threaded ethtool -L eth0 combined 1 Update the threaded state in napi config in netif_set_threaded and add a new test that verifies this scenario.

2025-08-05selftests: netdevsim: Xfail nexthop test on slow machinesIdo Schimmel
A lot of test cases in the file are related to the idle and unbalanced timers of resilient nexthop groups and these tests are reported to be flaky on slow machines running debug kernels. Rather than marking a lot of individual tests with xfail_on_slow(), simply mark all the tests. Note that the test is stable on non-debug machines and that with debug kernels we are mainly interested in the output of various sanitizers in order to determine pass / fail.

2025-08-05selftests/perf_events: Add a mmap() correctness testLorenzo Stoakes
Exercise various mmap(), munmap() and mremap() invocations, which might cause a perf buffer mapping to be split or truncated. To avoid hard coding the perf event and having dependencies on architectures and configuration options, scan through event types in sysfs and try to open them. On success, try to mmap() and if that succeeds try to mmap() the AUX buffer. In case that no AUX buffer supporting event is found, only test the base buffer mapping. If no mappable event is found or permissions are not sufficient, skip the tests. Reserve a PROT_NONE region for both rb and aux tests to allow testing the case where mremap unmaps beyond the end of a mapped VMA to prevent it from unmapping unrelated mappings.

2025-08-02mm/mseal: always define VM_SEALEDLorenzo Stoakes
Patch series "mseal cleanups", v4. Perform a number of cleanups to the mseal logic. Firstly, VM_SEALED is treated differently from every other VMA flag, it really doesn't make sense to do this, so we start by making this consistent with everything else. Next we place the madvise logic where it belongs - in mm/madvise.c. It really makes no sense to abstract this elsewhere. In doing so, we go to great lengths to explain very clearly the previously very confusing logic as to what sealed mappings are impacted here. In doing so, we retain existing logic regarding treatment of madvise() discard operations for a sealed, read-only MAP_PRIVATE file-backed mapping. This is something we likely need to revisit. We then abstract out and explain the 'are there are any gaps in this range in the mm?' check being performed as a prerequisite to mseal being performed. Finally, we simplify the actual mseal logic which is really quite straightforward. No functional change is intended. This patch (of 4): There is no reason to treat VM_SEALED in a special way, in each other case in which a VMA flag is unavailable due to configuration, we simply assign that flag to VM_NONE, so make VM_SEALED consistent with all other VMA flags in this respect. Additionally, use the next available bit for VM_SEALED, 42, rather than arbitrarily putting it at 63 and update the declaration to match all other VMA flags. No functional change intended.

2025-08-02tools/getdelays: add backward compatibility for taskstats versionFan Yu
Add version checks to print_delayacct() to handle differences in struct taskstats across kernel versions. Field availability depends on taskstats version (t->version), corresponding to TASKSTATS_VERSION in kernel headers (see include/uapi/linux/taskstats.h). Version feature mapping: - version >= 11 - supports COMPACT statistics - version >= 13 - supports WPCOPY statistics - version >= 14 - supports IRQ statistics - version >= 16 - supports *_max and *_min delay statistics This ensures the tool works correctly with both older and newer kernel versions by conditionally printing fields based on the reported version. eg.1 bash# grep -r "#define TASKSTATS_VERSION" /usr/include/linux/taskstats.h "#define TASKSTATS_VERSION 10" bash# ./getdelays -d -p 1 CPU count real total virtual total delay total delay average 7481 3786181709 3807098291 36393725 0.005ms IO count delay total delay average 369 1116046035 3.025ms SWAP count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms RECLAIM count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms THRASHING count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms eg.2 bash# grep -r "#define TASKSTATS_VERSION" /usr/include/linux/taskstats.h "#define TASKSTATS_VERSION 14" bash# ./getdelays -d -p 1 CPU count real total virtual total delay total delay average 68862 163474790046 174584722267 19962496806 0.290ms IO count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms SWAP count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms RECLAIM count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms THRASHING count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms COMPACT count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms WPCOPY count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms IRQ count delay total delay average 0 0 0.000ms Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250731225326549CttJ7g9NfjTlaqBwl015T@zte.com.cn Signed-off-by: Fan Yu <fan.yu9@zte.com.cn> Cc: Fan Yu <fan.yu9@zte.com.cn> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Wang Yaxin <wang.yaxin@zte.com.cn> Cc: xu xin <xu.xin16@zte.com.cn> Cc: Yang Yang <yang.yang29@zte.com.cn> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
2025-08-02kho: add test for kexec handoverMike Rapoport (Microsoft)
Testing kexec handover requires a kernel driver that will generate some data and preserve it with KHO on the first boot and then restore that data and verify it was preserved properly after kexec. To facilitate such test, along with the kernel driver responsible for data generation, preservation and restoration add a script that runs a kernel in a VM with a minimal /init. The /init enables KHO, loads a kernel image for kexec and runs kexec reboot. After the boot of the kexeced kernel, the driver verifies that the data was properly preserved.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim: "Build-ID processing goodies: Build-IDs are content based hashes to link regions of memory to ELF files in post processing. They have been available in distros for quite a while: $ file /bin/bash /bin/bash: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, BuildID[sha1]=707a1c670cd72f8e55ffedfbe94ea98901b7ce3a, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, stripped It is possible to ask the kernel to get it from mmap executable backing storage at time they are being put in place and send it as metadata at that moment to have in perf.data. Prefer that across the board to speed up 'record' time - it post processes the samples to find binaries touched by any samples and to save them with build-ID. It can skip reading build-ID in userspace if it comes from the kernel. perf record: * Make --buildid-mmap default. The kernel can generate MMAP2 events with a build-ID from ELF header. Use that by default instead of using inode and device ID to identify binaries. It also can be disabled with --no-buildid-mmap. * Use BPF for -u/--uid option to sample processes belong to a user. BPF can track user processes more accurately and the existing logic often fails to get the list of processes due to race with reading the /proc filesystem. * Generate PERF_RECORD_BPF_METADATA when it profiles BPF programs and they have variables starting with "bpf_metadata_". This will help to identify BPF objects used in the profile. This has been supported in bpftool for some time and allows the recording of metadata such as commit hashes, versions, etc, that now gets recorded in perf.data as well. * Collect list of DSOs touched in the sample callchains as well as in the sample itself. This would increase the processing time at the end of record, but can improve the data quality. perf stat: * Add a new 'drm' pseudo-PMU support like in 'hwmon'. It can collect DRM usage stats using fdinfo in /proc. On my Intel laptop, it shows like below: $ perf list drm ... drm: drm-active-stolen-system0 [Total memory active in one or more engines.

2025-08-01selftests/bpf: Test for unaligned flow_dissector ctx accessPaul Chaignon
This patch adds tests for two context fields where unaligned accesses were not properly rejected. Note the new macro is similar to the existing narrow_load macro, but we need a different description and access offset. Combining the two macros into one is probably doable but I don't think it would help readability. vmlinux.h is included in place of bpf.h so we have the definition of struct bpf_nf_ctx.

2025-08-01selftests: net: Fix flaky neighbor garbage collection testIdo Schimmel
The purpose of the "Periodic garbage collection" test case is to make sure that "extern_valid" neighbors are not flushed during periodic garbage collection, unlike regular neighbor entries. The test case is currently doing the following: 1. Changing the base reachable time to 10 seconds so that periodic garbage collection will run every 5 seconds. 2. Changing the garbage collection stale time to 5 seconds so that neighbors that have not been used in the last 5 seconds will be considered for removal. 3. Waiting for the base reachable time change to take effect. 4. Adding an "extern_valid" neighbor, a non-"extern_valid" neighbor and a bunch of other neighbors so that the threshold ("thresh1") will be crossed and stale neighbors will be flushed during garbage collection. 5. Waiting for 10 seconds to give garbage collection a chance to run. 6. Checking that the "extern_valid" neighbor was not flushed and that the non-"extern_valid" neighbor was flushed. The test sometimes fails in the netdev CI because the non-"extern_valid" neighbor was not flushed. I am unable to reproduce this locally, but my theory that since we do not know exactly when the periodic garbage collection runs, it is possible for it to run at a time when the non-"extern_valid" neighbor is still not considered stale. Fix by moving the addition of the two neighbors before step 3 and by reducing the garbage collection stale time to 1 second, to ensure that both neighbors are considered stale when garbage collection runs.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: "As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets. 21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up", "cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc. I never knew the MM code was so dirty. "mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes) addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent VMAs. "mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park) adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of DAMON in production environments. "stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig) is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of pointers from struct writeback_control. "drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom) contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and management code. "mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman) does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code. "Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts) implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading into order>0 folios. "selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown) provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the selftests code. "Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain) does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark. "Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox) expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page(). "mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand) addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code. These were not known to be causing any issues at this time. "mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park) provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON. "use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes) uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other types. "mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy) increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd code. "mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple) removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags. "mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park) implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON sysfs layer. "madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes) does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code. "madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka) provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort. "Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador) creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes. Previously these were lumped under the more general memory on/offline notifier. "Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan) cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice. "selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park) adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite. "Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador) fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and follows that fix with a series of cleanups. "cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport) rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA allocator. "mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand) provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code. "mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park) adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code. "mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park) does that. "mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park) also does what it claims. "mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand) cleans up the large folio PTE batching code. "mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park) facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation policy. "Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola) provides a couple of page->folio conversions. "mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso) implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the current memcg-based implementation. "mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park) replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface. "mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes) implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed reliably. "drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga) switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range(). "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park) augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a tunable to control the update interval. "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi) does what is claims. "mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand) provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe directly. "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan) addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than half in some situations. The series also introduces several new selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface. "__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan) cleans up __folio_split()! "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain) provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing with large folios. "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian) does some cleanup work in the selftests code. "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes) extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" feature. "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park) extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all possible user-requested parameters.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgg/iommufd Pull iommufd updates from Jason Gunthorpe: "This broadly brings the assigned HW command queue support to iommufd. This feature is used to improve SVA performance in VMs by avoiding paravirtualization traps during SVA invalidations. Along the way I think some of the core logic is in a much better state to support future driver backed features. Summary: - IOMMU HW now has features to directly assign HW command queues to a guest VM. In this mode the command queue operates on a limited set of invalidation commands that are suitable for improving guest invalidation performance and easy for the HW to virtualize. This brings the generic infrastructure to allow IOMMU drivers to expose such command queues through the iommufd uAPI, mmap the doorbell pages, and get the guest physical range for the command queue ring itself. - An implementation for the NVIDIA SMMUv3 extension "cmdqv" is built on the new iommufd command queue features. It works with the existing SMMU driver support for cmdqv in guest VMs. - Many precursor cleanups and improvements to support the above cleanly, changes to the general ioctl and object helpers, driver support for VDEVICE, and mmap pgoff cookie infrastructure. - Sequence VDEVICE destruction to always happen before VFIO device destruction. When using the above type features, and also in future confidential compute, the internal virtual device representation becomes linked to HW or CC TSM configuration and objects. If a VFIO device is removed from iommufd those HW objects should also be cleaned up to prevent a sort of UAF. This became important now that we have HW backing the VDEVICE. - Fix one syzkaller found error related to math overflows during iova allocation" * tag 'for-linus-iommufd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgg/iommufd: (57 commits) iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Replace vsmmu_size/type with get_viommu_size iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Do not bother impl_ops if IOMMU_VIOMMU_TYPE_ARM_SMMUV3 iommufd: Rename some shortterm-related identifiers iommufd/selftest: Add coverage for vdevice tombstone iommufd/selftest: Explicitly skip tests for inapplicable variant iommufd/vdevice: Remove struct device reference from struct vdevice iommufd: Destroy vdevice on idevice destroy iommufd: Add a pre_destroy() op for objects iommufd: Add iommufd_object_tombstone_user() helper iommufd/viommu: Roll back to use iommufd_object_alloc() for vdevice iommufd/selftest: Test reserved regions near ULONG_MAX iommufd: Prevent ALIGN() overflow iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: import IOMMUFD module namespace iommufd: Do not allow _iommufd_object_alloc_ucmd if abort op is set iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Add IOMMU_VEVENTQ_TYPE_TEGRA241_CMDQV support iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Add user-space use support iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Do not statically map LVCMDQs iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Simplify deinit flow in tegra241_cmdqv_remove_vintf() iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Use request_threaded_irq iommu/arm-smmu-v3-iommufd: Add hw_info to impl_ops ...

It post-processes samples to find which DSO has samples. Based on that info, it can save used DSOs in the build-ID cache directory. But for some reason, it saves all DSOs without checking the hit mark. Skipping unused DSOs can give some speedup especially with --buildid-mmap being default.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "ARM: - Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt translation and wired interrupts - Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface - Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on hardware that previously advertised it unconditionally - Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on systems with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to perform cache maintenance on the address range - Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the guest hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take traps of masked external aborts to the hypervisor - Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven implementation - Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3 system registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the ONE_REG vCPU ioctls - Various cleanups and minor fixes LoongArch: - Add stat information for in-kernel irqchip - Add tracepoints for CPUCFG and CSR emulation exits - Enhance in-kernel irqchip emulation - Various cleanups RISC-V: - Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking - Improve perf kvm stat to report interrupt events - Delegate illegal instruction trap to VS-mode - MMU improvements related to upcoming nested virtualization s390x - Fixes x86: - Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O APIC, PIC, and PIT emulation at compile time - Share device posted IRQ code between SVM and VMX and harden it against bugs and runtime errors - Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups O(1) instead of O(n) - For MMIO stale data mitigation, track whether or not a vCPU has access to (host) MMIO based on whether the page tables have MMIO pfns mapped; using VFIO is prone to false negatives - Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are more or less identical - Recalculate all MSR intercepts from scratch on MSR filter changes, instead of maintaining shadow bitmaps - Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction that's loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated independently - Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by setting the vCPU in INIT_RECEIVED state (aka wait-for-SIPI), and then putting the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Trying to detect every possible path leading to architecturally forbidden states is hard and even risks breaking userspace (if it goes from valid to valid state but passes through invalid states), so just wait until KVM_RUN to detect that the vCPU state isn't allowed - Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling interception of APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured VM can access APERF/MPERF. This has many caveats (APERF/MPERF cannot be zeroed on vCPU creation or saved/restored on suspend and resume, or preserved over thread migration let alone VM migration) but can be useful whenever you're interested in letting Linux guests see the effective physical CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo - Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ for vm file descriptors if vCPUs have been created, as there's no known use case for changing the default frequency for other VM types and it goes counter to the very reason why the ioctl was added to the vm file descriptor. And also, there would be no way to make it work for confidential VMs with a "secure" TSC, so kill two birds with one stone - Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU doesn't use the list) - Extract many of KVM's helpers for accessing architectural local APIC state to common x86 so that they can be shared by guest-side code for Secure AVIC - Various cleanups and fixes x86 (Intel): - Preserve the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM when running the guest. Failure to honor FREEZE_IN_SMM can leak host state into guests - Explicitly check vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL on nested VM-Enter to prevent L1 from running L2 with features that KVM doesn't support, e.g. BTF x86 (AMD): - WARN and reject loading kvm-amd.ko instead of panicking the kernel if the nested SVM MSRPM offsets tracker can't handle an MSR (which is pretty much a static condition and therefore should never happen, but still) - Fix a variety of flaws and bugs in the AVIC device posted IRQ code - Inhibit AVIC if a vCPU's ID is too big (relative to what hardware supports) instead of rejecting vCPU creation - Extend enable_ipiv module param support to SVM, by simply leaving IsRunning clear in the vCPU's physical ID table entry - Disable IPI virtualization, via enable_ipiv, if the CPU is affected by erratum #1235, to allow (safely) enabling AVIC on such CPUs - Request GA Log interrupts if and only if the target vCPU is blocking, i.e. only if KVM needs a notification in order to wake the vCPU - Intercept SPEC_CTRL on AMD if the MSR shouldn't exist according to the vCPU's CPUID model - Accept any SNP policy that is accepted by the firmware with respect to SMT and single-socket restrictions. An incompatible policy doesn't put the kernel at risk in any way, so there's no reason for KVM to care - Drop a superfluous WBINVD (on all CPUs!) when destroying a VM and use WBNOINVD instead of WBINVD when possible for SEV cache maintenance - When reclaiming memory from an SEV guest, only do cache flushes on CPUs that have ever run a vCPU for the guest, i.e. don't flush the caches for CPUs that can't possibly have cache lines with dirty, encrypted data Generic: - Rework irqbypass to track/match producers and consumers via an xarray instead of a linked list. Using a linked list leads to O(n^2) insertion times, which is hugely problematic for use cases that create large numbers of VMs. Such use cases typically don't actually use irqbypass, but eliminating the pointless registration is a future problem to solve as it likely requires new uAPI - Track irqbypass's "token" as "struct eventfd_ctx *" instead of a "void *", to avoid making a simple concept unnecessarily difficult to understand - Decouple device posted IRQs from VFIO device assignment, as binding a VM to a VFIO group is not a requirement for enabling device posted IRQs - Clean up and document/comment the irqfd assignment code - Disallow binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd with a priority waiter, i.e. ensure an eventfd is bound to at most one irqfd through the entire host, and add a selftest to verify eventfd:irqfd bindings are globally unique - Add a tracepoint for KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to help debug issues related to private <=> shared memory conversions - Drop guest_memfd's .getattr() implementation as the VFS layer will call generic_fillattr() if inode_operations.getattr is NULL - Fix issues with dirty ring harvesting where KVM doesn't bound the processing of entries in any way, which allows userspace to keep KVM in a tight loop indefinitely - Kill off kvm_arch_{start,end}_assignment() and x86's associated tracking, now that KVM no longer uses assigned_device_count as a heuristic for either irqbypass usage or MDS mitigation Selftests: - Fix a comment typo - Verify KVM is loaded when getting any KVM module param so that attempting to run a selftest without kvm.ko loaded results in a SKIP message about KVM not being loaded/enabled (versus some random parameter not existing) - Skip tests that hit EACCES when attempting to access a file, and print a "Root required?" help message.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull runtime verification updates from Steven Rostedt: - Added Linear temporal logic monitors for RT application Real-time applications may have design flaws causing them to have unexpected latency. For example, the applications may raise page faults, or may be blocked trying to take a mutex without priority inheritance. However, while attempting to implement DA monitors for these real-time rules, deterministic automaton is found to be inappropriate as the specification language. The automaton is complicated, hard to understand, and error-prone. For these cases, linear temporal logic is found to be more suitable. The LTL is more concise and intuitive. - Make printk_deferred() public The new monitors needed access to printk_deferred(). Make them visible for the entire kernel. - Add a vpanic() to allow for va_list to be passed to panic. - Add rtapp container monitor. A collection of monitors that check for common problems with real-time applications that cause unexpected latency. - Add page fault tracepoints to risc-v These tracepoints are necessary to for the RV monitor to run on risc-v. - Fix the behaviour of the rv tool with -s and idle tasks. - Allow the rv tool to gracefully terminate with SIGTERM - Adjusts dot2c not to create lines over 100 columns - Properly order nested monitors in the RV Kconfig file - Return the registration error in all DA monitor instead of 0 - Update and add new sched collection monitors Replace tss and sncid monitors with more complete sts: Not only prove that switches occur in scheduling context and scheduling needs interrupt disabled but also that each call to the scheduler disables interrupts to (optionally) switch. New monitor: nrp Preemption requires need resched which is cleared by any switch (includes a non optimal workaround for /nested/ preemptions) New monitor: sssw suspension requires setting the task to sleepable and, after the switch occurs, the task requires a wakeup to come back to runnable New monitor: opid waking and need-resched operations occur with interrupts and preemption disabled or in IRQ without explicitly disabling preemption" * tag 'trace-rv-6.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (48 commits) rv: Add opid per-cpu monitor rv: Add nrp and sssw per-task monitors rv: Replace tss and sncid monitors with more complete sts sched: Adapt sched tracepoints for RV task model rv: Retry when da monitor detects race conditions rv: Adjust monitor dependencies rv: Use strings in da monitors tracepoints rv: Remove trailing whitespace from tracepoint string rv: Add da_handle_start_run_event_ to per-task monitors rv: Fix wrong type cast in reactors_show() and monitor_reactor_show() rv: Fix wrong type cast in monitors_show() rv: Remove struct rv_monitor::reacting rv: Remove rv_reactor's reference counter rv: Merge struct rv_reactor_def into struct rv_reactor rv: Merge struct rv_monitor_def into struct rv_monitor rv: Remove unused field in struct rv_monitor_def rv: Return init error when registering monitors verification/rvgen: Organise Kconfig entries for nested monitors tools/dot2c: Fix generated files going over 100 column limit tools/rv: Stop gracefully also on SIGTERM ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-ktest Pull ktest updates from Steven Rostedt: - Add new -D option that allows to override variables and options For example: ./ktest.pl -DPATCH_START:=HEAD~1 -DOUTPUT_DIR=/work/build/urgent config The above sets the variable "PATCH_START" to HEAD~1 and the OUTPUT_DIR option to "/work/build/urgent". This is useful because currently the only way to make a slight change to a config file is by modifying that config file. For one time changes, this can be annoying. Having a way to do a one time override from the command line simplifies the workflow. Temp variables (PATCH_START) will override every temp variable in the config file, whereas options will act like a normal OVERRIDE option and will only affect the session they define. -DBUILD_OUTPUT=/work/git/linux.git Replaces the default BUILD_OUTPUT option. '-DBUILD_OUTPUT[2]=/work/git/linux.git' Only replaces the BUILD_OUTPUT variable for test #2. - If an option contains itself, just drop it instead of going into an infinite loop and failing to parse (it doesn't crash, it detects the recursion after 100 iterations anyway). Some configs may define a variable with the same name as the option: ADD_CONFIG := $(ADD_CONFIG) But if the option doesn't exist, it the above will fail to parse. In these cases, just ignore evaluating the option inside the definition of another option if it has the same name. - Display the BUILD_DIR and OUTPUT_DIR options at the start of every test It is useful to know which kernel source and what destination a test is using when it starts, in case a mistake is made. This makes it easier to abort the test if the wrong source or destination is being used instead of waiting until the test completes. - Add new PATCHCHECK_SKIP option When testing a series of commits that also includes changes to the Linux tools directory, it is useless to test the changes in tools as they may not affect the kernel itself. Doing tests on the kernel for changes that do not affect the kernel is a waste of time. Add a PATCHCHECK_SKIP that takes a series of shas that will be skipped while doing the individual commit tests. * tag 'ktest-v6.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-ktest: ktest.pl: Add new PATCHCHECK_SKIP option to skip testing individual commits ktest.pl: Always display BUILD_DIR and OUTPUT_DIR at the start of tests ktest.pl: Prevent recursion of default variable options ktest.pl: Have -D option work without a space ktest.pl: Allow command option -D to override temp variables ktest.pl: Add -D option to override options

2025-07-30perf test: Ensure lock contention using pipe modeJan Polensky
The 'kernel lock contention analysis test' requires reliable triggering of lock contention. On some systems, previous benchmark calls failed to generate sufficient contention due to low system activity or resource limits. This patch adds the -p (pipe) option to all calls of perf bench sched messaging, ensuring consistent lock contention without relying on socket-based communication.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas: "A quick summary: perf support for Branch Record Buffer Extensions (BRBE), typical PMU hardware updates, small additions to MTE for store-only tag checking and exposing non-address bits to signal handlers, HAVE_LIVEPATCH enabled on arm64, VMAP_STACK forced on. There is also a TLBI optimisation on hardware that does not require break-before-make when changing the user PTEs between contiguous and non-contiguous. More details: Perf and PMU updates: - Add support for new (v3) Hisilicon SLLC and DDRC PMUs - Add support for Arm-NI PMU integrations that share interrupts between clock domains within a given instance - Allow SPE to be configured with a lower sample period than the minimum recommendation advertised by PMSIDR_EL1.Interval - Add suppport for Arm's "Branch Record Buffer Extension" (BRBE) - Adjust the perf watchdog period according to cpu frequency changes - Minor driver fixes and cleanups Hardware features: - Support for MTE store-only checking (FEAT_MTE_STORE_ONLY) - Support for reporting the non-address bits during a synchronous MTE tag check fault (FEAT_MTE_TAGGED_FAR) - Optimise the TLBI when folding/unfolding contiguous PTEs on hardware with FEAT_BBM (break-before-make) level 2 and no TLB conflict aborts Software features: - Enable HAVE_LIVEPATCH after implementing arch_stack_walk_reliable() and using the text-poke API for late module relocations - Force VMAP_STACK always on and change arm64_efi_rt_init() to use arch_alloc_vmap_stack() in order to avoid KASAN false positives ACPI: - Improve SPCR handling and messaging on systems lacking an SPCR table Debug: - Simplify the debug exception entry path - Drop redundant DBG_MDSCR_* macros Kselftests: - Cleanups and improvements for SME, SVE and FPSIMD tests Miscellaneous: - Optimise loop to reduce redundant operations in contpte_ptep_get() - Remove ISB when resetting POR_EL0 during signal handling - Mark the kernel as tainted on SEA and SError panic - Remove redundant gcs_free() call" * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (93 commits) arm64/gcs: task_gcs_el0_enable() should use passed task arm64: Kconfig: Keep selects somewhat alphabetically ordered arm64: signal: Remove ISB when resetting POR_EL0 kselftest/arm64: Handle attempts to disable SM on SME only systems kselftest/arm64: Fix SVE write data generation for SME only systems kselftest/arm64: Test SME on SME only systems in fp-ptrace kselftest/arm64: Test FPSIMD format data writes via NT_ARM_SVE in fp-ptrace kselftest/arm64: Allow sve-ptrace to run on SME only systems arm64/mm: Drop redundant addr increment in set_huge_pte_at() kselftest/arm4: Provide local defines for AT_HWCAP3 arm64: Mark kernel as tainted on SAE and SError panic arm64/gcs: Don't call gcs_free() when releasing task_struct drivers/perf: hisi: Support PMUs with no interrupt drivers/perf: hisi: Relax the event number check of v2 PMUs drivers/perf: hisi: Add support for HiSilicon SLLC v3 PMU driver drivers/perf: hisi: Use ACPI driver_data to retrieve SLLC PMU information drivers/perf: hisi: Add support for HiSilicon DDRC v3 PMU driver drivers/perf: hisi: Simplify the probe process for each DDRC version perf/arm-ni: Support sharing IRQs within an NI instance perf/arm-ni: Consolidate CPU affinity handling ...
