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.
Output after:
# ./perf record -aB --synth=no -u 0 -- ./perf test -w thloop 2
[ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.876 MB perf.data ]
# ./perf report --stats | grep SAMPLE
SAMPLE events: 16200 (99.5%)
SAMPLE events: 16200
#
The software event succeeded both before and after the patch:
# ./perf record -e cpu-clock -aB --synth=no -u 0 -- \
./perf test -w thloop 2
[ perf record: Woken up 7 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.870 MB perf.data ]
# ./perf report --stats | grep SAMPLE
SAMPLE events: 53506 (99.8%)

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.

reference count leaks which are caused by:
- VMA splits, which change the offset or size of a mapping, which causes
perf_mmap_close() to ignore the unmap or unmap the wrong buffer.
- Several internal issues of perf_mmap(), which can cause reference count
leaks in the perf mmap, corrupt accounting or cause leaks in perf
drivers.
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.
The reference counting should be converted to refcount_t, but that requires
larger refactoring of the code and will be done once these fixes are
upstream.

Commit 2677010e77 ("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.

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.

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.

We keep seeing flakes on packetdrill on debug kernels, while
non-debug kernels are stable, not a single flake in 200 runs.
Time to give up, debug kernels appear to suffer from 10msec
latency spikes and any timing-sensitive test is bound to flake.

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.

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.

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.

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. Unit: drm_i915]
drm-active-system0
[Total memory active in one or more engines. Unit: drm_i915]

[Utilization in ns. Unit: drm_i915]
drm-engine-render
[Utilization in ns. Unit: drm_i915]

[Utilization in ns. Unit: drm_i915]
...
$ sudo perf stat -a -e drm-engine-render,drm-engine-video,drm-engine-capacity-video sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
48,137,316,988,873 ns drm-engine-render
34,452,696,746 ns drm-engine-video
20 capacity drm-engine-capacity-video
1.002086194 seconds time elapsed
perf list
---------
* Add description for software events. The description is in JSON format
and the event parser now can handle the software events like others
(for example, it's case-insensitive and subject to wildcard matching).
$ perf list software
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e or -M):
software:
alignment-faults
[Number of kernel handled memory alignment faults. Unit: software]
bpf-output
[An event used by BPF programs to write to the perf ring buffer. Unit: software]

dummy

emulation-faults
[Number of kernel handled unimplemented instruction faults handled through emulation. Unit: software]
faults
[Number of page faults [This event is an alias of page-faults]. Unit: software]
major-faults
[Number of major page faults. Major faults require I/O to handle. Unit: software]

[Number of page faults [This event is an alias of faults]. Unit: software]
task-clock

perf ftrace
-----------
* Add -e/--events option to perf ftrace latency to measure latency
between the two events instead of a function.
$ sudo perf ftrace latency -ab -e i915_request_wait_begin,i915_request_wait_end --hide-empty -- sleep 1

misc
----
* Add perf archive --exclude-buildids <FILE> option to skip some binaries.
The format of the FILE should be same as an output of perf buildid-list.
* Get rid of dependency of libcrypto. It was just to get SHA-1 hash so
implement it directly like in the kernel. A side effect is that it
needs -fno-strict-aliasing compiler option (again, like in the kernel).
* Convert all shell script tests to use bash.

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. Unit: drm_i915]
drm-active-system0
[Total memory active in one or more engines. Unit: drm_i915]

perf list
* Add description for software events. The description is in JSON format
and the event parser now can handle the software events like others
(for example, it's case-insensitive and subject to wildcard matching).
$ perf list software
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e or -M):
software:
alignment-faults
[Number of kernel handled memory alignment faults. Unit: software]
bpf-output
[An event used by BPF programs to write to the perf ring buffer. Unit: software]
cgroup-switches
[Number of context switches to a task in a different cgroup. Unit: software]
context-switches

cs
[Number of context switches [This event is an alias of context-switches]. Unit: software]
dummy

emulation-faults
[Number of kernel handled unimplemented instruction faults handled through emulation. Unit: software]
faults
[Number of page faults [This event is an alias of page-faults]. Unit: software]
major-faults
[Number of major page faults. Major faults require I/O to handle. Unit: software]

page-faults
[Number of page faults [This event is an alias of faults]. Unit: software]
task-clock
[Per-task high-resolution timer based event. Unit: software]
perf ftrace:
* Add -e/--events option to perf ftrace latency to measure latency
between the two events instead of a function.
$ sudo perf ftrace latency -ab -e i915_request_wait_begin,i915_request_wait_end --hide-empty -- sleep 1

...
Misc:
* Add perf archive --exclude-buildids <FILE> option to skip some binaries.
The format of the FILE should be same as an output of perf buildid-list.
* Get rid of dependency of libcrypto. It was just to get SHA-1 hash so
implement it directly like in the kernel. A side effect is that it
needs -fno-strict-aliasing compiler option (again, like in the kernel).
* Convert all shell script tests to use bash"

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.

Pull PCI updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Allow built-in drivers, not just modular drivers, to use async
initial probing (Lukas Wunner)
- Support Immediate Readiness even on devices with no PM Capability
(Sean Christopherson)
- Consolidate definition of PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS (100ms), the
required delay between a reset and sending config requests to a
device (Niklas Cassel)
- Add pci_is_display() to check for "Display" base class and use it
in ALSA hda, vfio, vga_switcheroo, vt-d (Mario Limonciello)
- Allow 'isolated PCI functions' (multi-function devices without a
function 0) for LoongArch, similar to s390 and jailhouse (Huacai
Chen)
Power control:
- Add ability to enable optional slot clock for cases where the PCIe
host controller and the slot are supplied by different clocks
(Marek Vasut)
PCIe native device hotplug:
- Fix runtime PM ref imbalance on Hot-Plug Capable ports caused by
misinterpreting a config read failure after a device has been
removed (Lukas Wunner)
- Avoid creating a useless PCIe port service device for pciehp if the
slot is handled by the ACPI hotplug driver (Lukas Wunner)
- Ignore ACPI hotplug slots when calculating depth of pciehp hotplug
ports (Lukas Wunner)
Virtualization:
- Save VF resizable BAR state and restore it after reset (Michał
Winiarski)
- Allow IOV resources (VF BARs) to be resized (Michał Winiarski)

- Use dev_fwnode() instead of of_fwnode_handle() to remove OF
dependency in altera (fixes an unused variable), designware-host,
mediatek, mediatek-gen3, mobiveil, plda, xilinx, xilinx-dma,
xilinx-nwl (Jiri Slaby, Arnd Bergmann)

mediatek, mediatek-gen3, mobiveil, plda, rcar-host, vmd, xilinx,
xilinx-dma, xilinx-nwl from using pci_msi_create_irq_domain() to
using msi_create_parent_irq_domain() instead; this makes the
interrupt controller per-PCI device, allows dynamic allocation of
vectors after initialization, and allows support of IMS (Nam Cao)
APM X-Gene PCIe controller driver:
- Rewrite MSI handling to MSI CPU affinity, drop useless CPU hotplug
bits, use device-managed memory allocations, and clean things up
(Marc Zyngier)
- Probe xgene-msi as a standard platform driver rather than a
subsys_initcall (Marc Zyngier)
Broadcom STB PCIe controller driver:
- Add optional DT 'num-lanes' property and if present, use it to
override the Maximum Link Width advertised in Link Capabilities
(Jim Quinlan)
Cadence PCIe controller driver:

(Richard Zhu)
- Configure LUT for MSI/IOMMU in Endpoint mode so Root Complex can
trigger doorbel on Endpoint (Frank Li)

Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:
- Add DT binding and driver support for SA8255p, which supports ECAM
for Configuration Space access (Mayank Rana)
- Update DT binding and driver to describe PHYs and per-Root Port
resets in a Root Port stanza and deprecate describing them in the
host bridge; this makes it possible to support multiple Root Ports
in the future (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)
- Add Qualcomm QCS615 to SM8150 DT binding (Ziyue Zhang)
- Add Qualcomm QCS8300 to SA8775p DT binding (Ziyue Zhang)
- Drop TBU and ref clocks from Qualcomm SM8150 and SC8180x DT
bindings (Konrad Dybcio)
- Document 'link_down' reset in Qualcomm SA8775P DT binding (Ziyue
Zhang)
- Add required PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS delay after Link up IRQ
(Niklas Cassel)
Rockchip PCIe controller driver:
- Drop unused PCIe Message routing and code definitions (Hans Zhang)
- Remove several unused header includes (Hans Zhang)
- Use standard PCIe config register definitions instead of
rockchip-specific redefinitions (Geraldo Nascimento)
- Set Target Link Speed to 5.0 GT/s before retraining so we have a
chance to train at a higher speed (Geraldo Nascimento)
Rockchip DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Prevent race between link training and register update via DBI by
inhibiting link training after hot reset and link down (Wilfred
Mallawa)
- Add required PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS delay after Link up IRQ
(Niklas Cassel)
Sophgo PCIe controller driver:
- Add DT binding and driver for Sophgo SG2044 PCIe controller driver
in Root Complex mode (Inochi Amaoto)
Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Add required PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS after waiting for Link up on
Ports that support > 5.0 GT/s. Slower Ports still rely on the
not-quite-correct PCIE_LINK_WAIT_SLEEP_MS 90ms default delay while
waiting for the Link (Niklas Cassel)"

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.

- Introduce enum timerlat_tracing_mode
Now that BPF based sampling has been added to timerlat, add an enum to
represent which mode timerlat is running in.
- Add action on timelat threshold feature
A new option, --on-threshold, is added, taking an argument
that further specifies the action. Actions added in this patch are:
- trace[,file=<filename>]: Saves tracefs buffer, optionally taking a
filename.
- signal,num=<sig>,pid=<pid>: Sends signal to process. "parent" might
be specified instead of number to send signal to parent process.
- shell,command=<command>: Execute shell command.
- Allow resuming tracing in timerlat bpf
rtla-timerlat BPF program uses a global variable stored in a .bss section to
store whether tracing has been stopped. Map it to allow it to resume tracing
after it has been stopped.
- Add continue action to timerlat
Introduce option to resume tracing after a latency threshold overflow. The
option is implemented as an action named "continue".
- Add action on end feature to timerlat
Implement actions on end next to actions on threshold. A new option,
--on-end is added, parallel to --on-threshold. Instead of being executed
whenever a latency threshold is reached, it is executed at the end of the
measurement.
- Have rtla tests check output with grep
Add argument to the check command in the test suite that takes a regular
expression that the output of rtla command is checked against. This allows
testing for specific information in rtla output in addition to checking the
return value.
- Add tests for timerlat actions
- Update the documentation for the new features

Bueso implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
- The 14 patch series "mm/damon: remove damon_callback" from SeongJae
Park replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
- The 10 patch series "mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs"
from 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.

interval.
- The 4 patch series "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" from
Kemeng Shi does what is claims.
- The 4 patch series "mm: introduce snapshot_page" from 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.
- The 6 patch series "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" from
Suren Baghdasaryan addresses the large contention issues which can be
triggered by reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more

more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
- The 22 patch series "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters"
from SeongJae Park extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it
tests all possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present

"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. Rather than the present minimal
subset"

- 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 PR 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

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.

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.
On my idle machine, `time perf record -a sleep 1` goes down from 3 sec
to 1.5 sec with this change.
