Pull runtime verifier updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Refactor da_monitor to minimize macros
Complete refactor of da_monitor.h to reduce reliance on macros
generating functions. Use generic static functions and uses the
preprocessor only when strictly necessary (e.g. for tracepoint
handlers).
The change essentially relies on functions with generic names (e.g.
da_handle) instead of monitor-specific as well adding the need to
define constant (e.g. MONITOR_NAME, MONITOR_TYPE) before including
the header rather than calling macros that would define functions.
Also adapt monitors and documentation accordingly.
- Cleanup DA code generation scripts
Clean up functions in dot2c removing reimplementations of trivial
library functions (__buff_to_string) and removing some other unused
intermediate steps.
- Annotate functions with types in the rvgen python scripts
- Remove superfluous assignments and cleanup generated code
The rvgen scripts generate a superfluous assignment to 0 for enum
variables and don't add commas to the last elements, which is against
the kernel coding standards. Change the generation process for a
better compliance and slightly simpler logic.
- Remove superfluous declarations from generated code
The monitor container source files contained a declaration and a
definition for the rv_monitor variable. The former is superfluous and
was removed.
- Fix reference to outdated documentation

Pull PCI updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Don't try to enable Extended Tags on VFs since that bit is Reserved
and causes misleading log messages (Håkon Bugge)
- Initialize Endpoint Read Completion Boundary to match Root Port,
regardless of ACPI _HPX (Håkon Bugge)
- Apply _HPX PCIe Setting Record only to AER configuration, and only
when OS owns PCIe hotplug but not AER, to avoid clobbering Extended
Tag and Relaxed Ordering settings (Håkon Bugge)
Resource management:
- Move CardBus code to setup-cardbus.c and only build it when
CONFIG_CARDBUS is set (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Fix bridge window alignment with optional resources, where
additional alignment requirement was previously lost (Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Stop over-estimating bridge window size since they are now assigned
without any gaps between them (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Increase resource MAX_IORES_LEVEL to avoid /proc/iomem flattening
for nested bridges and endpoints (Ilpo Järvinen)

(SR-IOV VF BARs, expansion ROMs, bridge windows) (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Don't claim disabled bridge windows to avoid spurious claim
failures (Ilpo Järvinen)
Driver binding:
- Fix device reference leak in pcie_port_remove_service() (Uwe
Kleine-König)
- Move pcie_port_bus_match() and pcie_port_bus_type to PCIe-specific
portdrv.c (Uwe Kleine-König)
- Convert portdrv to use pcie_port_bus_type.probe() and .remove()
callbacks so .probe() and .remove() can eventually be removed from
struct device_driver (Uwe Kleine-König)
Error handling:
- Clear stale errors on reporting agents upon probe so they don't
look like recent errors (Lukas Wunner)
- Add generic RAS tracepoint for hotplug events (Shuai Xue)
- Add RAS tracepoint for link speed changes (Shuai Xue)
Power management:
- Avoid redundant delay on transition from D3hot to D3cold if the
device was already in D3hot (Brian Norris)
- Prevent runtime suspend until devices are fully initialized to
avoid saving incompletely configured device state (Brian Norris)
Power control:
- Add power_on/off callbacks with generic signature to pwrseq,
tc9563, and slot drivers so they can be used by pwrctrl core
(Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Add PCIe M.2 connector support to the slot pwrctrl driver
(Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Switch to pwrctrl interfaces to create, destroy, and power on/off

PCI core (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Drop qcom .assert_perst() callbacks since this is now done by the
controller driver instead of the pwrctrl driver (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
Virtualization:
- Remove an incorrect unlock in pci_slot_trylock() error handling
(Jinhui Guo)
- Lock the bridge device for slot reset (Keith Busch)
- Enable ACS after IOMMU configuration on OF platforms so ACS is
enabled an all devices; previously the first device enumerated
(typically a Root Port) didn't have ACS enabled (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
- Disable ACS Source Validation for IDT 0x80b5 and 0x8090 switches to
work around hardware erratum; previously ACS SV was only
temporarily disabled, which worked for enumeration but not after
reset (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
Peer-to-peer DMA:
- Release per-CPU pgmap ref when vm_insert_page() fails to avoid hang
when removing the PCI device (Hou Tao)

pointer to the preceding Capability, to allow removal of
Capabilities that are advertised but not fully implemented (Qiang
Yu)
- Remove MSI and MSI-X Capabilities in platforms that can't support
them, so the PCI core automatically falls back to INTx (Qiang Yu)
- Add ASPM L1.1 and L1.2 Substates context to debugfs ltssm_status
for drivers that support this (Shawn Lin)
- Skip PME_Turn_Off broadcast and L2/L3 transition during suspend if
link is not up to avoid an unnecessary timeout (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
- Revert dw-rockchip, qcom, and DWC core changes that used link-up
IRQs to trigger enumeration instead of waiting for link to be up
because the PCI core doesn't allocate bus number space for
hierarchies that might be attached (Niklas Cassel)
- Make endpoint iATU entry for MSI permanent instead of programming
it dynamically, which is slow and racy with respect to other
concurrent traffic, e.g., eDMA (Koichiro Den)
- Use iMSI-RX MSI target address when possible to fix endpoints using
32-bit MSI (Shawn Lin)
- Allow DWC host controller driver probe to continue if device is not
found or found but inactive; only fail when there's an error with
the link (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- For controllers like NXP i.MX6QP and i.MX7D, where LTSSM registers
are not accessible after PME_Turn_Off, simply wait 10ms instead of
polling for L2/L3 Ready (Richard Zhu)
- Use multiple iATU entries to map large bridge windows and DMA
ranges when necessary instead of failing (Samuel Holland)

Controllers that can update BAR inbound address translation without
requiring EPF driver to clear/reset the BAR first, and advertise it
for DWC-based Endpoints (Koichiro Den)
- Add EPC subrange_mapping feature bit for Endpoint Controllers that
can map multiple independent inbound regions in a single BAR,
implement subrange mapping, advertise it for DWC-based Endpoints,
and add Endpoint selftests for it (Koichiro Den)
- Make resizable BARs work for Endpoint multi-PF configurations;
previously it only worked for PF 0 (Aksh Garg)
- Fix Endpoint non-PF 0 support for BAR configuration, ATU mappings,
and Address Match Mode (Aksh Garg)
- Set up iATU when ECAM is enabled; previously IO and MEM outbound
windows weren't programmed, and ECAM-related iATU entries weren't
restored after suspend/resume, so config accesses failed (Krishna
Chaitanya Chundru)
Miscellaneous:
- Use system_percpu_wq and WQ_PERCPU to explicitly request per-CPU
work so WQ_UNBOUND can eventually be removed (Marco Crivellari)"

The root document usually has a special :ref:`genindex` link to the
generated index. This is also the case for Documentation/index.rst. The
other index.rst files deeper in the directory hierarchy usually don't.
For SPHINXDIRS builds, the root document isn't Documentation/index.rst,
but some other index.rst in the hierarchy. Currently they have a
".. only::" block to add the index link when doing SPHINXDIRS html
builds.
This is obviously very tedious and repetitive. The link is also added to
all index.rst files in the hierarchy for SPHINXDIRS builds, not just the
root document.
Put the boilerplate in a sphinx-includes/subproject-index.rst file, and
include it at the end of the root document for subproject builds in an
ad-hoc source-read extension defined in conf.py.
For now, keep having the boilerplate in translations, because this
approach currently doesn't cover translated index link headers.

Previous changes refactored the da_monitor header file to avoid using
macros. This implies a few changes in how to import and use da_monitor
helpers:
DECLARE_DA_MON_<TYPE>(name, type) is substituted by
#define RV_MON_TYPE RV_MON_<TYPE>
da_handle_event_<name>() is substituted by
da_handle_event()
Update the documentation to reflect the changes.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Extend tracing option mask to 64 bits
The trace options were defined by a 32 bit variable. This limits the
tracing instances to have a total of 32 different options. As that
limit has been hit, and more options are being added, increase the
option mask to a 64 bit number, doubling the number of options
available.
As this is required for the kprobe topic branches as well as the
tracing topic branch, a separate branch was created and merged into
both.
- Make trace_user_fault_read() available for the rest of tracing
The function trace_user_fault_read() is used by trace_marker file
read to allow reading user space to be done fast and without locking
or allocations. Make this available so that the system call trace
events can use it too.
- Have system call trace events read user space values
Now that the system call trace events callbacks are called in a
faultable context, take advantage of this and read the user space
buffers for various system calls. For example, show the path name of
the openat system call instead of just showing the pointer to that
path name in user space. Also show the contents of the buffer of the
write system call. Several system call trace events are updated to
make tracing into a light weight strace tool for all applications in
the system.
- Update perf system call tracing to do the same
- And a config and syscall_user_buf_size file to control the size of
the buffer
Limit the amount of data that can be read from user space. The
default size is 63 bytes but that can be expanded to 165 bytes.
- Allow the persistent ring buffer to print system calls normally
The persistent ring buffer prints trace events by their type and
ignores the print_fmt. This is because the print_fmt may change from
kernel to kernel. As the system call output is fixed by the system
call ABI itself, there's no reason to limit that. This makes reading
the system call events in the persistent ring buffer much nicer and
easier to understand.
- Add options to show text offset to function profiler
The function profiler that counts the number of times a function is
hit currently lists all functions by its name and offset. But this
becomes ambiguous when there are several functions with the same
name.
Add a tracing option that changes the output to be that of
'_text+offset' instead. Now a user space tool can use this
information to map the '_text+offset' to the unique function it is
counting.
- Report bad dynamic event command
If a bad command is passed to the dynamic_events file, report it
properly in the error log.
- Clean up tracer options
Clean up the tracer option code a bit, by removing some useless code
and also using switch statements instead of a series of if
statements.
- Have tracing options be instance specific
Tracers can have their own options (function tracer, irqsoff tracer,
function graph tracer, etc). But now that the same tracer can be
enabled in multiple trace instances, their options are still global.
The API is per instance, thus changing one affects other instances.
This isn't even consistent, as the option take affect differently
depending on when an tracer started in an instance. Make the options
for instances only affect the instance it is changed under.
- Optimize pid_list lock contention
Whenever the pid_list is read, it uses a spin lock. This happens at
every sched switch. Taking the lock at sched switch can be removed by
instead using a seqlock counter.
- Clean up the trace trigger structures
The trigger code uses two different structures to implement a single
tigger. This was due to trying to reuse code for the two different
types of triggers (always on trigger, and count limited trigger). But
by adding a single field to one structure, the other structure could
be absorbed into the first structure making he code easier to
understand.
- Create a bulk garbage collector for trace triggers
If user space has triggers for several hundreds of events and then
removes them, it can take several seconds to complete. This is
because each removal calls tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() that
can take hundreds of milliseconds to complete.
Instead, create a helper thread that will do the clean up. When a
trigger is removed, it will create the kthread if it isn't already
created, and then add the trigger to a llist. The kthread will take
the items off the llist, call tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(),
and then remove the items it took off. It will then check if there's
more items to free before sleeping.
This makes user space removing all these triggers to finish in less
than a second.
- Allow function tracing of some of the tracing infrastructure code
Because the tracing code can cause recursion issues if it is traced
by the function tracer the entire tracing directory disables function
tracing. But not all of tracing causes issues if it is traced.
Namely, the event tracing code. Add a config that enables some of the
tracing code to be traced to help in debugging it. Note, when this is
enabled, it does add noise to general function tracing, especially if
events are enabled as well (which is a common case).
- Add boot-time backup instance for persistent buffer
The persistent ring buffer is used mostly for kernel crash analysis
in the field. One issue is that if there's a crash, the data in the
persistent ring buffer must be read before tracing can begin using
it. This slows down the boot process. Once tracing starts in the
persistent ring buffer, the old data must be freed and the addresses
no longer match and old events can't be in the buffer with new
events.
Create a way to create a backup buffer that copies the persistent
ring buffer at boot up. Then after a crash, the always on tracer can
begin immediately as well as the normal boot process while the crash
analysis tooling uses the backup buffer. After the backup buffer is
finished being read, it can be removed.
- Enable function graph args and return address options at the same
time
Currently the when reading of arguments in the function graph tracer
is enabled, the option to record the parent function in the entry
event can not be enabled. Update the code so that it can.
- Add new struct_offset() helper macro
Add a new macro that takes a pointer to a structure and a name of one
of its members and it will return the offset of that member. This
allows the ring buffer code to simplify the following:
From: size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
To: size = struct_offset(entry, id) + cnt;
There should be other simplifications that this macro can help out
with as well

When a system call that can copy user space addresses into the ring
buffer, it can copy up to 511 bytes of data. This can waste precious ring
buffer space if the user isn't interested in the output. Add a new file
"syscall_user_buf_size" that gets initialized to a new config
CONFIG_SYSCALL_BUF_SIZE_DEFAULT that defaults to 63.
The config also is used to limit how much perf can read from user space.
Also lower the max down to 165, as this isn't to record everything that a
system call may be passing through to the kernel. 165 is more than enough.
The reason for 165 is because adding one for the nul terminating byte, as
well as possibly needing to append the "..." string turns it into 170
bytes. As this needs to save up to 3 arguments and 3 * 170 is 510 which
fits nicely in 512 bytes (a power of 2).

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Deprecate auto-mounting tracefs to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
When tracefs was first introduced back in 2014, the directory
/sys/kernel/tracing was added and is the designated location to mount
tracefs. To keep backward compatibility, tracefs was auto-mounted in
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing as well.
All distros now mount tracefs on /sys/kernel/tracing. Having it seen
in two different locations has lead to various issues and
inconsistencies.
The VFS folks have to also maintain debugfs_create_automount() for
this single user.
It's been over 10 years. Tooling and scripts should start replacing
the debugfs location with the tracefs one. The reason tracefs was
created in the first place was to allow access to the tracing
facilities without the need to configure debugfs into the kernel.
Using tracefs should now be more robust.
A new config is created: CONFIG_TRACEFS_AUTOMOUNT_DEPRECATED which is
default y, so that the kernel is still built with the automount. This
config allows those that want to remove the automount from debugfs to
do so.
When tracefs is accessed from /sys/kernel/debug/tracing, the
following printk is triggerd:
pr_warn("NOTICE: Automounting of tracing to debugfs is deprecated and will be removed in 2030\n");
This gives users another 5 years to fix their scripts.
- Use queue_rcu_work() instead of call_rcu() for freeing event filters
The number of filters to be free can be many depending on the number
of events within an event system. Freeing them from softirq context
can potentially cause undesired latency. Use the RCU workqueue to
free them instead.
- Remove pointless memory barriers in latency code
Memory barriers were added to some of the latency code a long time
ago with the idea of "making them visible", but that's not what
memory barriers are for. They are to synchronize access between
different variables. There was no synchronization here making them
pointless.
- Remove "__attribute__()" from the type field of event format
When LLVM is used to compile the kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y
and PAHOLE_HAS_BTF_TAG=y, some of the format fields get expanded with
the following:
field:const char * filename; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
Turns into:
field:const char __attribute__((btf_type_tag("user"))) * filename; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
This confuses parsers. Add code to strip these tags from the strings.
- Add eprobe config option CONFIG_EPROBE_EVENTS
Eprobes were added back in 5.15 but were only enabled when another
probe was enabled (kprobe, fprobe, uprobe, etc). The eprobes had no
config option of their own. Add one as they should be a separate
entity.
It's default y to keep with the old kernels but still has
dependencies on TRACING and HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API.
- Add eprobe documentation
When eprobes were added back in 5.15 no documentation was added to
describe them. This needs to be rectified.
- Replace open coded cpumask_next_wrap() in move_to_next_cpu()
- Have preemptirq_delay_run() use off-stack CPU mask
- Remove obsolete comment about pelt_cfs event
DECLARE_TRACE() appends "_tp" to trace events now, but the comment
above pelt_cfs still mentioned appending it manually.
- Remove EVENT_FILE_FL_SOFT_MODE flag
The SOFT_MODE flag was required when the soft enabling and disabling
of trace events was first introduced. But there was a bug with this
approach as it only worked for a single instance. When multiple users
required soft disabling and disabling the code was changed to have a
ref count. The SOFT_MODE flag is now set iff the ref count is non
zero. This is redundant and just reading the ref count is good
enough.

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It has been a relatively busy cycle for docs, especially the build
system:
- The Perl kernel-doc script was added to 2.3.52pre1 just after the
turn of the millennium. Over the following 25 years, it accumulated
a vast amount of cruft, all in a language few people want to deal
with anymore. Mauro's Python replacement in 6.16 faithfully
reproduced all of the cruft in the hope of avoiding regressions.
Now that we have a more reasonable code base, though, we can work
on cleaning it up; many of the changes this time around are toward
that end.
- A reorganization of the ext4 docs into the usual TOC format.
- Various Chinese translations and updates.

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"

The tss monitor currently guarantees task switches can happen only while
scheduling, whereas the sncid monitor enforces scheduling occurs with
interrupt disabled.
Replace the monitors with a more comprehensive specification which
implies both but also ensures that:

* each task switch happens with interrupts disabled

Monitor synthesis from deterministic automaton and linear temporal logic
have a lot in common. Therefore a single document should describe both.
Change da_monitor_synthesis.rst to monitor_synthesis.rst. LTL monitor
synthesis will be added to this file by a follow-up commit.
This makes the diff far easier to read. If renaming and adding LTL info is
done in a single commit, git wouldn't recognize it as a rename, but a file
removal and a file addition.
While at it, correct the old dot2k commands to the new rvgen commands.

Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it
requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when
a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all
architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are
added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other
architectures can still function until they too have been updated.
The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the
DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements
DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant
with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.
Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where
applicable.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Have module addresses get updated in the persistent ring buffer
The addresses of the modules from the previous boot are saved in the
persistent ring buffer. If the same modules are loaded and an address
is in the old buffer points to an address that was both saved in the
persistent ring buffer and is loaded in memory, shift the address to
point to the address that is loaded in memory in the trace event.
- Print function names for irqs off and preempt off callsites
When ignoring the print fmt of a trace event and just printing the
fields directly, have the fields for preempt off and irqs off events
still show the function name (via kallsyms) instead of just showing
the raw address.
- Clean ups of the histogram code
The histogram functions saved over 800 bytes on the stack to process
events as they come in. Instead, create per-cpu buffers that can hold
this information and have a separate location for each context level
(thread, softirq, IRQ and NMI).
Also add some more comments to the code.
- Add "common_comm" field for histograms
Add "common_comm" that uses the current->comm as a field in an event
histogram and acts like any of the other fields of the event.
- Show "subops" in the enabled_functions file
When the function graph infrastructure is used, a subsystem has a
"subops" that it attaches its callback function to. Instead of the
enabled_functions just showing a function calling the function that
calls the subops functions, also show the subops functions that will
get called for that function too.
- Add "copy_trace_marker" option to instances
There are cases where an instance is created for tooling to write
into, but the old tooling has the top level instance hardcoded into
the application. New tools want to consume the data from an instance
and not the top level buffer. By adding a copy_trace_marker option,
whenever the top instance trace_marker is written into, a copy of it
is also written into the instance with this option set. This allows
new tools to read what old tools are writing into the top buffer.
If this option is cleared by the top instance, then what is written
into the trace_marker is not written into the top instance. This is a
way to redirect the trace_marker writes into another instance.
- Have tracepoints created by DECLARE_TRACE() use trace_<name>_tp()
If a tracepoint is created by DECLARE_TRACE() instead of
TRACE_EVENT(), then it will not be exposed via tracefs. Currently
there's no way to differentiate in the kernel the tracepoint
functions between those that are exposed via tracefs or not. A
calling convention has been made manually to append a "_tp" prefix
for events created by DECLARE_TRACE(). Instead of doing this
manually, force it so that all DECLARE_TRACE() events have this
notation.
- Use __string() for task->comm in some sched events
Instead of hardcoding the comm to be TASK_COMM_LEN in some of the
scheduler events use __string() which makes it dynamic. Note, if
these events are parsed by user space it they may break, and the
event may have to be converted back to the hardcoded size.
- Have function graph "depth" be unsigned to the user
Internally to the kernel, the "depth" field of the function graph
event is signed due to -1 being used for end of boundary. What
actually gets recorded in the event itself is zero or positive.
Reflect this to user space by showing "depth" as unsigned int and be
consistent across all events.
- Allow an arbitrary long CPU string to osnoise_cpus_write()
The filtering of which CPUs to write to can exceed 256 bytes. If a
machine has 256 CPUs, and the filter is to filter every other CPU,
the write would take a string larger than 256 bytes. Instead of using
a fixed size buffer on the stack that is 256 bytes, allocate it to
handle what is passed in.
- Stop having ftrace check the per-cpu data "disabled" flag
The "disabled" flag in the data structure passed to most ftrace
functions is checked to know if tracing has been disabled or not.
This flag was added back in 2008 before the ring buffer had its own
way to disable tracing. The "disable" flag is now not always set when
needed, and the ring buffer flag should be used in all locations
where the disabled is needed. Since the "disable" flag is redundant
and incorrect, stop using it. Fix up some locations that use the
"disable" flag to use the ring buffer info.
- Use a new tracer_tracing_disable/enable() instead of data->disable
flag
There's a few cases that set the data->disable flag to stop tracing,
but this flag is not consistently used. It is also an on/off switch
where if a function set it and calls another function that sets it,
the called function may incorrectly enable it.
Use a new trace_tracing_disable() and tracer_tracing_enable() that
uses a counter and can be nested. These use the ring buffer flags
which are always checked making the disabling more consistent.
- Save the trace clock in the persistent ring buffer
Save what clock was used for tracing in the persistent ring buffer
and set it back to that clock after a reboot.
- Remove unused reference to a per CPU data pointer in mmiotrace

Most tracepoints in the kernel are created with TRACE_EVENT(). The
TRACE_EVENT() macro (and DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and DEFINE_EVENT() where in
reality, TRACE_EVENT() is just a helper macro that calls those other two
macros), will create not only a tracepoint (the function trace_<event>()
used in the kernel), it also exposes the tracepoint to user space along
with defining what fields will be saved by that tracepoint.
There are a few places that tracepoints are created in the kernel that are
not exposed to userspace via tracefs. They can only be accessed from code
within the kernel. These tracepoints are created with DEFINE_TRACE()
Most of these tracepoints end with "_tp". This is useful as when the
developer sees that, they know that the tracepoint is for in-kernel only
(meaning it can only be accessed inside the kernel, either directly by the
kernel or indirectly via modules and BPF programs) and is not exposed to
user space.
Instead of making this only a process to add "_tp", enforce it by making
the DECLARE_TRACE() append the "_tp" suffix to the tracepoint. This
requires adding DECLARE_TRACE_EVENT() macros for the TRACE_EVENT() macro
to use that keeps the original name.

There are applications that have it hard coded to write into the top level
trace_marker instance (/sys/kernel/tracing/trace_marker). This can be
annoying if a profiler is using that instance for other work, or if it
needs all writes to go into a new instance.
A new option is created called "copy_trace_marker". By default, the top
level has this set, as that is the default buffer that writing into the
top level trace_marker file will go to. But now if an instance is created
and sets this option, all writes into the top level trace_marker will also
be written into that instance buffer just as if an application were to
write into the instance's trace_marker file.
If the top level instance disables this option, then writes to its own
trace_marker and trace_marker_raw files will not go into its buffer.
If no instance has this option set, then the write will return an error
and errno will contain ENODEV.

Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Persistent buffer cleanups and simplifications.
It was mistaken that the physical memory returned from "reserve_mem"
had to be vmap()'d to get to it from a virtual address. But
reserve_mem already maps the memory to the virtual address of the
kernel so a simple phys_to_virt() can be used to get to the virtual
address from the physical memory returned by "reserve_mem". With this
new found knowledge, the code can be cleaned up and simplified.
- Enforce that the persistent memory is page aligned
As the buffers using the persistent memory are all going to be
mapped via pages, make sure that the memory given to the tracing
infrastructure is page aligned. If it is not, it will print a
warning and fail to map the buffer.
- Use phys_to_virt() to get the virtual address from reserve_mem
Instead of calling vmap() on the physical memory returned from
"reserve_mem", use phys_to_virt() instead.
As the memory returned by "memmap" or any other means where a
physical address is given to the tracing infrastructure, it still
needs to be vmap(). Since this memory can never be returned back to
the buddy allocator nor should it ever be memmory mapped to user
space, flag this buffer and up the ref count. The ref count will
keep it from ever being freed, and the flag will prevent it from
ever being memory mapped to user space.
- Use vmap_page_range() for memmap virtual address mapping
For the memmap buffer, instead of allocating an array of struct
pages, assigning them to the contiguous phsycial memory and then
passing that to vmap(), use vmap_page_range() instead
- Replace flush_dcache_folio() with flush_kernel_vmap_range()
Instead of calling virt_to_folio() and passing that to
flush_dcache_folio(), just call flush_kernel_vmap_range() directly.
This also fixes a bug where if a subbuffer was bigger than
PAGE_SIZE only the PAGE_SIZE portion would be flushed"
* tag 'trace-ringbuffer-v6.15-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:
ring-buffer: Use flush_kernel_vmap_range() over flush_dcache_folio()
tracing: Use vmap_page_range() to map memmap ring buffer
tracing: Have reserve_mem use phys_to_virt() and separate from memmap buffer
tracing: Enforce the persistent ring buffer to be page aligned

Enforce that the address and the size of the memory used by the persistent
ring buffer is page aligned. Also update the documentation to reflect this
requirement.

Pull latency tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add some trace events to osnoise and timerlat sample generation
This adds more information to the osnoise and timerlat tracers as
well as allows BPF programs to be attached to these locations to
extract even more data.
- Fix to DECLARE_TRACE_CONDITION() macro
It wasn't used but now will be and it happened to be broken causing
the build to fail.
- Add scheduler specification monitors to runtime verifier (RV)
This is a continuation of Daniel Bristot's work.
RV allows monitors to run and react concurrently. Running the
cumulative model is equivalent to running single components using the
same reactors, with the advantage that it's easier to point out which
specification failed in case of error.
This update introduces nested monitors to RV, in short, the sysfs
monitor folder will contain a monitor named sched, which is nothing
but an empty container for other monitors. Controlling the sched
monitor (enable, disable, set reactors) controls all nested monitors.
The following scheduling monitors are added:
- sco: scheduling context operations
Monitor to ensure sched_set_state happens only in thread context
- tss: task switch while scheduling
Monitor to ensure sched_switch happens only in scheduling context
- snroc: set non runnable on its own context
Monitor to ensure set_state happens only in the respective task's context
- scpd: schedule called with preemption disabled
Monitor to ensure schedule is called with preemption disabled
- snep: schedule does not enable preempt
Monitor to ensure schedule does not enable preempt
- sncid: schedule not called with interrupt disabled
Monitor to ensure schedule is not called with interrupt disabled
