Merge tag 'docs-6.8' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
"Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including:
- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following
a warning that was added in 6.2
- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to,
hopefully, make it more useful
- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly
with __counted_by annotations
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent
structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the
delightful consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs
build. A sustained effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has
addressed almost all of those, bringing the documentation back into
sync with the code. The fixes are going through the appropriate
maintainer trees
- Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic
links to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations
easy to access
- Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese
... plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes"

Merge tag 'net-next-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)
Misc:
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
which we have specs
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool
Driver API:
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform

Merge tag 'regulator-v6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator
Pull regulator updates from Mark Brown:
"The main updates for this release are around monitoring of regulators,
largely for error handling purposes. We allow the stream of regulator
events to be seen by userspace as netlink events and allow system
integrators to describe individual regulators as system critical with
information on how long the system is expected to last on error. The
system level error handling is very much about best effort problem
mitigation rather than providing something fully robust, the initial
drive was to provide a mechanism for trying to avoid initiating any
new writes to flash once we notice the power going out.
Otherwise it's very quiet, mainly several new Qualcomm devices.
- Support for marking regulators as system critical and providing
information on how long the system might last with those regulators
in a failure state, hooked into the existing critical shutdown
error handling.
- Optional support for generating netlink events for events, there
are use cases for system monitoring UIs and error handling.
- A command line option to leave unused controllable regulators
enabled, useful for debugging. We already only disable regulators
we were explicitly given permission to control.
- Support for Quacomm MP5496, PM8010 and PM8937"

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: - Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF helper so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies. While cgroup1 is mostly in maintenance mode, this addition is very small while having an outsized usefulness for users who are still on cgroup1. Yafang also optimized root cgroup list access by making it RCU protected in the process. - Waiman Long optimized rstat operation leading to substantially lower and more consistent lock hold time while flushing the hierarchical statistics. As the lock can be acquired briefly in various hot paths, this reduction has cascading benefits. - Waiman also improved the quality of isolation for cpuset's isolated partitions. CPUs which are allocated to isolated partitions are now excluded from running unbound work items and cpu_is_isolated() test which is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference now includes cpuset isolated CPUs. While it isn't there yet, the hope is eventually reaching parity with the isolation level provided by the `isolcpus` boot param but in a dynamic manner. * tag 'cgroup-for-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cgroup: Move rcu_head up near the top of cgroup_root cgroup/cpuset: Include isolated cpuset CPUs in cpu_is_isolated() check cgroup: Avoid false cacheline sharing of read mostly rstat_cpu cgroup/rstat: Optimize cgroup_rstat_updated_list() cgroup: Fix documentation for cpu.idle cgroup/cpuset: Expose cpuset.cpus.isolated workqueue: Move workqueue_set_unbound_cpumask() and its helpers inside CONFIG_SYSFS cgroup/rstat: Reduce cpu_lock hold time in cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() cgroup/cpuset: Take isolated CPUs out of workqueue unbound cpumask cgroup/cpuset: Keep track of CPUs in isolated partitions selftests/cgroup: Minor code cleanup and reorganization of test_cpuset_prs.sh workqueue: Add workqueue_unbound_exclude_cpumask() to exclude CPUs from wq_unbound_cpumask selftests: cgroup: Fixes a typo in a comment cgroup: Add a new helper for cgroup1 hierarchy cgroup: Add annotation for holding namespace_sem in current_cgns_cgroup_from_root() cgroup: Eliminate the need for cgroup_mutex in proc_cgroup_show() cgroup: Make operations on the cgroup root_list RCU safe cgroup: Remove unnecessary list_empty() |

zswap: memcontrol: implement zswap writeback disabling
During our experiment with zswap, we sometimes observe swap IOs due to occasional zswap store failures and writebacks-to-swap. These swapping IOs prevent many users who cannot tolerate swapping from adopting zswap to save memory and improve performance where possible. This patch adds the option to disable this behavior entirely: do not writeback to backing swapping device when a zswap store attempt fail, and do not write pages in the zswap pool back to the backing swap device (both when the pool is full, and when the new zswap shrinker is called). This new behavior can be opted-in/out on a per-cgroup basis via a new cgroup file. By default, writebacks to swap device is enabled, which is the previous behavior. Initially, writeback is enabled for the root cgroup, and a newly created cgroup will inherit the current setting of its parent. Note that this is subtly different from setting memory.swap.max to 0, as it still allows for pages to be stored in the zswap pool (which itself consumes swap space in its current form). This patch should be applied on top of the zswap shrinker series: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20231130194023.4102148-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/ as it also disables the zswap shrinker, a major source of zswap writebacks. For the most part, this feature is motivated by internal parties who have already established their opinions regarding swapping - the workloads that are highly sensitive to IO, and especially those who are using servers with really slow disk performance (for instance, massive but slow HDDs). For these folks, it's impossible to convince them to even entertain zswap if swapping also comes as a packaged deal. Writeback disabling is quite a useful feature in these situations - on a mixed workloads deployment, they can disable writeback for the more IO-sensitive workloads, and enable writeback for other background workloads. For instance, on a server with HDD, I allocate memories and populate them with random values (so that zswap store will always fail), and specify memory.high low enough to trigger reclaim. The time it takes to allocate the memories and just read through it a couple of times (doing silly things like computing the values' average etc.): zswap.writeback disabled: real 0m30.537s user 0m23.687s sys 0m6.637s 0 pages swapped in 0 pages swapped out zswap.writeback enabled: real 0m45.061s user 0m24.310s sys 0m8.892s 712686 pages swapped in 461093 pages swapped out (the last two lines are from vmstat -s).

userfaultfd: UFFDIO_MOVE uABI
Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl. UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy (done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to the kernel [2]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces splitting the vma. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/1425575884-2574-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/ Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage: UFFDIO_MOVE (Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp: struct uffdio_move { __u64 dst; /* Destination of move */ __u64 src; /* Source of move */ __u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */ __u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */ __s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */ }; The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation: UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault resolution UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved. When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error. When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of having to split the hugepage during the operation. The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno- style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by the UFFDIO_MOVE operation. The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork() with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source VMA before fork(). This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Possible errors include: EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in the move field) does not equal the value that was specified in the len field. EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len was invalid. EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field. ENOENT The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set. EEXIST The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially mapped. EBUSY The pages in the source virtual memory range are either pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual memory area before fork(). ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed. ESRCH The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE operation.

mm: thp: introduce multi-size THP sysfs interface
In preparation for adding support for anonymous multi-size THP, introduce new sysfs structure that will be used to control the new behaviours. A new directory is added under transparent_hugepage for each supported THP size, and contains an `enabled` file, which can be set to "inherit" (to inherit the global setting), "always", "madvise" or "never". For now, the kernel still only supports PMD-sized anonymous THP, so only 1 directory is populated. The first half of the change converts transhuge_vma_suitable() and hugepage_vma_check() so that they take a bitfield of orders for which the user wants to determine support, and the functions filter out all the orders that can't be supported, given the current sysfs configuration and the VMA dimensions. The resulting functions are renamed to thp_vma_suitable_orders() and thp_vma_allowable_orders() respectively. Convenience functions that take a single, unencoded order and return a boolean are also defined as thp_vma_suitable_order() and thp_vma_allowable_order(). The second half of the change implements the new sysfs interface. It has been done so that each supported THP size has a `struct thpsize`, which describes the relevant metadata and is itself a kobject. This is pretty minimal for now, but should make it easy to add new per-thpsize files to the interface if needed in future (e.g. per-size defrag). Rather than keep the `enabled` state directly in the struct thpsize, I've elected to directly encode it into huge_anon_orders_[always|madvise|inherit] bitfields since this reduces the amount of work required in thp_vma_allowable_orders() which is called for every page fault. See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst, as modified by this commit, for details of how the new sysfs interface works.

zswap: shrink zswap pool based on memory pressure
Currently, we only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is hit. This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed ahead of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on factors such as memory access patterns and compressibility of the memory pages). This patch implements a memcg- and NUMA-aware shrinker for zswap, that is initiated when there is memory pressure. The shrinker does not have any parameter that must be tuned by the user, and can be opted in or out on a per-memcg basis. Furthermore, to make it more robust for many workloads and prevent overshrinking (i.e evicting warm pages that might be refaulted into memory), we build in the following heuristics: * Estimate the number of warm pages residing in zswap, and attempt to protect this region of the zswap LRU. * Scale the number of freeable objects by an estimate of the memory saving factor. The better zswap compresses the data, the fewer pages we will evict to swap (as we will otherwise incur IO for relatively small memory saving). * During reclaim, if the shrinker encounters a page that is also being brought into memory, the shrinker will cautiously terminate its shrinking action, as this is a sign that it is touching the warmer region of the zswap LRU. As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.

fs/proc/task_mmu: report SOFT_DIRTY bits through the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
The PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl returns information regarding page table entries. It is more efficient compared to reading pagemap files. CRIU can start to utilize this ioctl, but it needs info about soft-dirty bits to track memory changes. We are aware of a new method for tracking memory changes implemented in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl. For CRIU, the primary advantage of this method is its usability by unprivileged users. However, it is not feasible to transparently replace the soft-dirty tracker with the new one. The main problem here is userfault descriptors that have to be preserved between pre-dump iterations. It means criu continues supporting the soft-dirty method to avoid breakage for current users. The new method will be implemented as a separate feature.

cgroup/cpuset: Take isolated CPUs out of workqueue unbound cpumask
To make CPUs in isolated cpuset partition closer in isolation to the boot time isolated CPUs specified in the "isolcpus" boot command line option, we need to take those CPUs out of the workqueue unbound cpumask so that work functions from the unbound workqueues won't run on those CPUs. Otherwise, they will interfere the user tasks running on those isolated CPUs. With the introduction of the workqueue_unbound_exclude_cpumask() helper function in an earlier commit, those isolated CPUs can now be taken out from the workqueue unbound cpumask. This patch also updates cgroup-v2.rst to mention that isolated CPUs will be excluded from unbound workqueue cpumask as well as updating test_cpuset_prs.sh to verify the correctness of the new *cpuset.cpus.isolated file, if available via cgroup_debug option.

Merge tag 'x86_microcode_for_v6.7_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 microcode loading updates from Borislac Petkov:
"Major microcode loader restructuring, cleanup and improvements by
Thomas Gleixner:
- Restructure the code needed for it and add a temporary initrd
mapping on 32-bit so that the loader can access the microcode
blobs. This in itself is a preparation for the next major
improvement:
- Do not load microcode on 32-bit before paging has been enabled.
Handling this has caused an endless stream of headaches, issues,
ugly code and unnecessary hacks in the past. And there really
wasn't any sensible reason to do that in the first place. So switch
the 32-bit loading to happen after paging has been enabled and turn
the loader code "real purrty" again
- Drop mixed microcode steppings loading on Intel - there, a single
patch loaded on the whole system is sufficient
- Rework late loading to track which CPUs have updated microcode
successfully and which haven't, act accordingly
- Move late microcode loading on Intel in NMI context in order to
guarantee concurrent loading on all threads
- Make the late loading CPU-hotplug-safe and have the offlined
threads be woken up for the purpose of the update
- Add support for a minimum revision which determines whether late
microcode loading is safe on a machine and the microcode does not
change software visible features which the machine cannot use
anyway since feature detection has happened already. Roughly, the
minimum revision is the smallest revision number which must be
loaded currently on the system so that late updates can be allowed
- Other nice leanups, fixess, etc all over the place"

Pull sh updates from John Paul Adrian Glaubitz:
"While the previously announced patch series for converting arch/sh to
device trees is not yet ready for inclusion to mainline and therefore
didn't make it for this pull request, there are still a small number
changes for v6.7 which include one platform (board plus CPU and driver
code) removal plus two fixes.
The removal sent in by Arnd Bergmann concerns the microdev board which
was an early SuperH prototype board that was never used in production.
With the board removed, we were able to drop the now unused code for
the SH4-202 CPU and well as the driver code for the superhyway bus and
a custom implementation for ioport_map() and ioport_unmap() which will
allow us to simplify ioport handling in the future.

The bulk of the changes is reworking of the CPU capability checking
code (cpus_have_cap() etc).
- Major refactoring of the CPU capability detection logic resulting
in the removal of the cpus_have_const_cap() function and migrating
the code to "alternative" branches where possible
- Backtrace/kgdb: use IPIs and pseudo-NMI
- Perf and PMU:
- Add support for Ampere SoC PMUs
- Multi-DTC improvements for larger CMN configurations with
multiple Debug & Trace Controllers
- Rework the Arm CoreSight PMU driver to allow separate
registration of vendor backend modules
- Fixes: add missing MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE to the amlogic perf
driver; use device_get_match_data() in the xgene driver; fix
NULL pointer dereference in the hisi driver caused by calling
cpuhp_state_remove_instance(); use-after-free in the hisi driver

- FEAT_SVE_B16B16 (BFloat16)
- FEAT_LRCPC3 (release consistency model)
- FEAT_LSE128 (128-bit atomic instructions)
- SVE: remove a couple of pseudo registers from the cpufeature code.
There is logic in place already to detect mismatched SVE features
- Miscellaneous:
- Reduce the default swiotlb size (currently 64MB) if no ZONE_DMA
bouncing is needed. The buffer is still required for small
kmalloc() buffers
- Fix module PLT counting with !RANDOMIZE_BASE
- Restrict CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to LLVM IAS 15.x or newer move

Merge tag 'net-next-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by a
route attribute.
- Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send
a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance
on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).
- The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler:
- add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling
- support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR)
- improve inactive flow reporting
- optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality
- Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern
replacement for the old MD5 option.
- Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to
TCP_INFO.
- Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets.
- Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was
shutdown().
- Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router
Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft.
- Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode.
- Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable.
- Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps
limit the number of wakeups.
- Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user
space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire
table.
- Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver.
- Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks.
- Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were
created via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at
runtime.
- Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different
filters.
- MCTP over I3C.
BPF:
- Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic of
the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode.
- Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should never
be true but are hard for the verifier to infer. With some extra
flexibility around handling of the exit / failure:
https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/
- Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing
per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on the
value for the current CPU.
This allows to deprecate local one-off implementations of per-CPU
storage like BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps.
- Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is
for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows
running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs
of different services.
- Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion
made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs.
- Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support. One of the
use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF.
- Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup().
- Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.
- Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and
fentry/fexit programs.
- Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed
kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.
- Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.
- Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.
Changes to common code:
- overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with
flexible array members.
- Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.
Driver API:
- Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy
mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.
- Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and
querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in
network time distribution.
- Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code.
Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.
- Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().
- Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve
correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC
addresses.
- Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames.
- Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule().
- Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages.
Misc:
- A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric.
- A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees.
- A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes.
- Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers.
- Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core.
