Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Improve the scalability of the CFS bandwidth unthrottling logic with
large number of CPUs.
- Fix & rework various cpuidle routines, simplify interaction with the
generic scheduler code. Add __cpuidle methods as noinstr to objtool's
noinstr detection and fix boatloads of cpuidle bugs & quirks.
- Add new ABI: introduce MEMBARRIER_CMD_GET_REGISTRATIONS, to query
previously issued registrations.
- Limit scheduler slice duration to the sysctl_sched_latency period, to
improve scheduling granularity with a large number of SCHED_IDLE
tasks.
- Debuggability enhancement on sys_exit(): warn about disabled IRQs,
but also enable them to prevent a cascade of followup problems and
repeat warnings.
- Fix the rescheduling logic in prio_changed_dl().
- Micro-optimize cpufreq and sched-util methods.
- Micro-optimize ttwu_runnable()
- Micro-optimize the idle-scanning in update_numa_stats(),
select_idle_capacity() and steal_cookie_task().

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Fix showing of TASK_COMM_LEN instead of its value
The TASK_COMM_LEN was converted from a macro into an enum so that BTF
would have access to it. But this unfortunately caused TASK_COMM_LEN
to display in the format fields of trace events, as they are created
by the TRACE_EVENT() macro and such, macros convert to their values,
where as enums do not.
To handle this, instead of using the field itself to be display, save
the value of the array size as another field in the trace_event_fields
structure, and use that instead.
Not only does this fix the issue, but also converts the other trace
events that have this same problem (but were not breaking tooling).
With this change, the original work around b3bc8547d3 ("tracing:
Have TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM affect trace event types as well") could be
reverted (but that should be done in the merge window)"

poll() and select() on per_cpu trace_pipe and trace_pipe_raw do not work
since kernel 6.1-rc6. This issue is seen after the commit
42fb0a1e84 ("tracing/ring-buffer: Have
polling block on watermark").
This issue is firstly detected and reported, when testing the CXL error
events in the rasdaemon and also erified using the test application for poll()
and select().
This issue occurs for the per_cpu case, when calling the ring_buffer_poll_wait(),
in kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c, with the buffer_percent > 0 and then wait until the
percentage of pages are available. The default value set for the buffer_percent is 50
in the kernel/trace/trace.c.
As a fix, allow userspace application could set buffer_percent as 0 through
the buffer_percent_fops, so that the task will wake up as soon as data is added
to any of the specific cpu buffer.

Currently trace_printk() can be used as soon as early_trace_init() is
called from start_kernel(). But if a crash happens, and
"ftrace_dump_on_oops" is set on the kernel command line, all you get will
be:
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 347519us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 353141us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 358684us : Unknown type 6
This is because the trace_printk() event (type 6) hasn't been registered
yet. That gets done via an early_initcall(), which may be early, but not
early enough.
Instead of registering the trace_printk() event (and other ftrace events,
which are not trace events) via an early_initcall(), have them registered at
the same time that trace_printk() can be used. This way, if there is a
crash before early_initcall(), then the trace_printk()s will actually be
useful.

Setting filters on an ftrace ops results in some memory being allocated
for the filter hashes, which must be freed before the ops can be freed.
This can be done by removing every individual element of the hash by
calling ftrace_set_filter_ip() or ftrace_set_filter_ips() with `remove`
set, but this is somewhat error prone as it's easy to forget to remove
an element.
Make it easier to clean this up by exporting ftrace_free_filter(), which
can be used to clean up all of the filter hashes after an ftrace_ops has
been unregistered.
Using this, fix the ftrace-direct* samples to free hashes prior to being
unloaded. All other code either removes individual filters explicitly or
is built-in and already calls ftrace_free_filter().

Add 'symstr' type for storing the kernel symbol as a string data
instead of the symbol address. This allows us to filter the
events by wildcard symbol name.
e.g.
# echo 'e:wqfunc workqueue.workqueue_execute_start symname=$function:symstr' >> dynamic_events
# cat events/eprobes/wqfunc/format
name: wqfunc
ID: 2110
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:__data_loc char[] symname; offset:8; size:4; signed:1;
print fmt: " symname=\"%s\"", __get_str(symname)
Note that there is already 'symbol' type which just change the
print format (so it still stores the symbol address in the tracing
ring buffer.) On the other hand, 'symstr' type stores the actual
"symbol+offset/size" data as a string.

Pull x86 core updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Add the call depth tracking mitigation for Retbleed which has been
long in the making. It is a lighterweight software-only fix for
Skylake-based cores where enabling IBRS is a big hammer and causes a
significant performance impact.
What it basically does is, it aligns all kernel functions to 16 bytes
boundary and adds a 16-byte padding before the function, objtool
collects all functions' locations and when the mitigation gets
applied, it patches a call accounting thunk which is used to track
the call depth of the stack at any time.
When that call depth reaches a magical, microarchitecture-specific
value for the Return Stack Buffer, the code stuffs that RSB and
avoids its underflow which could otherwise lead to the Intel variant
of Retbleed.
This software-only solution brings a lot of the lost performance
back, as benchmarks suggest:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220915111039.092790446@infradead.org/
That page above also contains a lot more detailed explanation of the
whole mechanism
- Implement a new control flow integrity scheme called FineIBT which is
based on the software kCFI implementation and uses hardware IBT
support where present to annotate and track indirect branches using a
hash to validate them

Currently the tracing dump_on_oops feature is implemented through
separate notifiers, one for die/oops and the other for panic;
given they have the same functionality, let's unify them.
Also improve the function comment and change the priority of the
notifier to make it execute earlier, avoiding showing useless trace
data (like the callback names for the other notifiers); finally,
we also removed an unnecessary header inclusion.

"The highlights this time are support for dynamically enabling and
disabling Clang's Shadow Call Stack at boot and a long-awaited
optimisation to the way in which we handle the SVE register state on
system call entry to avoid taking unnecessary traps from userspace.
Summary:
ACPI:
- Enable FPDT support for boot-time profiling
- Fix CPU PMU probing to work better with PREEMPT_RT
- Update SMMUv3 MSI DeviceID parsing to latest IORT spec
- APMT support for probing Arm CoreSight PMU devices
CPU features:
- Advertise new SVE instructions (v2.1)
- Advertise range prefetch instruction
- Advertise CSSC ("Common Short Sequence Compression") scalar
instructions, adding things like min, max, abs, popcount
- Enable DIT (Data Independent Timing) when running in the kernel
- More conversion of system register fields over to the generated
header
CPU misfeatures:
- Workaround for Cortex-A715 erratum #2645198
Dynamic SCS:
- Support for dynamic shadow call stacks to allow switching at
runtime between Clang's SCS implementation and the CPU's pointer
authentication feature when it is supported (complete with scary
DWARF parser!)
Tracing and debug:
- Remove static ftrace in favour of, err, dynamic ftrace!
- Seperate 'struct ftrace_regs' from 'struct pt_regs' in core ftrace
and existing arch code
- Introduce and implement FTRACE_WITH_ARGS on arm64 to replace the
old FTRACE_WITH_REGS
- Extend 'crashkernel=' parameter with default value and fallback to
placement above 4G physical if initial (low) allocation fails
SVE:
- Optimisation to avoid disabling SVE unconditionally on syscall
entry and just zeroing the non-shared state on return instead
Exceptions:
- Rework of undefined instruction handling to avoid serialisation on
global lock (this includes emulation of user accesses to the ID
registers)
Perf and PMU:
- Support for TLP filters in Hisilicon's PCIe PMU device
- Support for the DDR PMU present in Amlogic Meson G12 SoCs
- Support for the terribly-named "CoreSight PMU" architecture from
Arm (and Nvidia's implementation of said architecture)
Misc:
- Tighten up our boot protocol for systems with memory above 52 bits
physical
- Const-ify static keys to satisty jump label asm constraints
- Trivial FFA driver cleanups in preparation for v1.1 support
- Export the kernel_neon_* APIs as GPL symbols

The osnoise workload runs with preemption and IRQs enabled in such
a way as to allow all sorts of noise to disturb osnoise's execution.
hwlat tracer has a similar workload but works with irq disabled,
allowing only NMIs and the hardware to generate noise.
While thinking about adding an options file to hwlat tracer to
allow the system to panic, and other features I was thinking
to add, like having a tracepoint at each noise detection, it
came to my mind that is easier to make osnoise and also do
hardware latency detection than making hwlat "feature compatible"
with osnoise.
Other points are:
- osnoise already has an independent cpu file.
- osnoise has a more intuitive interface, e.g., runtime/period vs.
window/width (and people often need help remembering what it is).
- osnoise: tracepoints
- osnoise stop options
- osnoise options file itself
Moreover, the user-space side (in rtla) is simplified by reusing the
existing osnoise code.
Finally, people have been asking me about using osnoise for hw latency
detection, and I have to explain that it was sufficient but not
necessary. These options make it sufficient and necessary.
Adding a Suggested-by Clark, as he often asked me about this
possibility.

Often the latency observed in a CPU is not caused by the work being done
in the CPU itself, but by work done on another CPU that causes the
hardware to stall all CPUs. In this case, it is interesting to know
what is happening on ALL CPUs, and the best way to do this is via
crash dump analysis.
Add the PANIC_ON_STOP option to osnoise/timerlat tracers. The default
behavior is having this option off. When enabled by the user, the system
will panic after hitting a stop tracing condition.
This option was motivated by a real scenario that Juri Lelli and I
were debugging.

With the new command line option that allows trace event triggers to be
added at boot, the "snapshot" trigger will allocate the snapshot buffer
very early, when interrupts can not be enabled. Allocating the ring buffer
is not the problem, but it also resizes it, which is, as the resize code
does synchronization that can not be preformed at early boot.
To handle this, first change the raw_spin_lock_irq() in rb_insert_pages()
to raw_spin_lock_irqsave(), such that the unlocking of that spin lock will
not enable interrupts.
Next, where it calls schedule_work_on(), disable migration and check if
the CPU to update is the current CPU, and if so, perform the work
directly, otherwise re-enable migration and call the schedule_work_on() to
the CPU that is being updated. The rb_insert_pages() just needs to be run
on the CPU that it is updating, and does not need preemption nor
interrupts disabled when calling it.

When input some constructed invalid 'trigger' command, command info
in 'error_log' are lost [1].
The root cause is that there is a path that event_hist_trigger_parse()
is recursely called once and 'last_cmd' which save origin command is
cleared, then later calling of hist_err() will no longer record origin
command info:
event_hist_trigger_parse() {
last_cmd_set() // <1> 'last_cmd' save origin command here at first
create_actions() {
onmatch_create() {
action_create() {
trace_action_create() {
trace_action_create_field_var() {
create_field_var_hist() {
event_hist_trigger_parse() { // <2> recursely called once
hist_err_clear() // <3> 'last_cmd' is cleared here
}
hist_err() // <4> No longer find origin command!!!
Since 'glob' is empty string while running into the recurse call, we
can trickly check it and bypass the call of hist_err_clear() to solve it.
