d2a6fd45c5 Probes updates for v6.5:
- fprobe: Pass return address to the fprobe entry/exit callbacks so that
   the callbacks don't need to analyze pt_regs/stack to find the function
   return address.
 
 - kprobe events: cleanup usage of TPARG_FL_FENTRY and TPARG_FL_RETURN
   flags so that those are not set at once.
 
 - fprobe events:
  . Add a new fprobe events for tracing arbitrary function entry and
    exit as a trace event.
  . Add a new tracepoint events for tracing raw tracepoint as a trace
    event. This allows user to trace non user-exposed tracepoints.
  . Move eprobe's event parser code into probe event common file.
  . Introduce BTF (BPF type format) support to kernel probe (kprobe,
    fprobe and tracepoint probe) events so that user can specify traced
    function arguments by name. This also applies the type of argument
    when fetching the argument.
  . Introduce '$arg*' wildcard support if BTF is available. This expands
    the '$arg*' meta argument to all function argument automatically.
  . Check the return value types by BTF. If the function returns 'void',
    '$retval' is rejected.
  . Add some selftest script for fprobe events, tracepoint events and
    BTF support.
  . Update documentation about the fprobe events.
  . Some fixes for above features, document and selftests.
 
 - selftests for ftrace (except for new fprobe events):
  . Add a test case for multiple consecutive probes in a function which
    checks if ftrace based kprobe, optimized kprobe and normal kprobe
    can be defined in the same target function.
  . Add a test case for optimized probe, which checks whether kprobe
    can be optimized or not.

a1be9ccc57 function_graph: Support recording and printing the return value of function
Analyzing system call failures with the function_graph tracer can be a
time-consuming process, particularly when locating the kernel function
that first returns an error in the trace logs. This change aims to
simplify the process by recording the function return value to the
'retval' member of 'ftrace_graph_ret' and printing it when outputting
the trace log.

We have introduced new trace options: funcgraph-retval and
funcgraph-retval-hex. The former controls whether to display the return
value, while the latter controls the display format.

Please note that even if a function's return type is void, a return
value will still be printed. You can simply ignore it.

This patch only establishes the fundamental infrastructure. Subsequent
patches will make this feature available on some commonly used processor
architectures.

Here is an example:

I attempted to attach the demo process to a cpu cgroup, but it failed:

echo `pidof demo` > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/tasks
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

The strace logs indicate that the write system call returned -EINVAL(-22):
...
write(1, "273\n", 4)                    = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
...

To capture trace logs during a write system call, use the following
commands:

cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo 0 > tracing_on
echo > trace
echo *sys_write > set_graph_function
echo *spin* > set_graph_notrace
echo *rcu* >> set_graph_notrace
echo *alloc* >> set_graph_notrace
echo preempt* >> set_graph_notrace
echo kfree* >> set_graph_notrace
echo $$ > set_ftrace_pid
echo function_graph > current_tracer
echo 1 > options/funcgraph-retval
echo 0 > options/funcgraph-retval-hex
echo 1 > tracing_on
echo `pidof demo` > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/tasks
echo 0 > tracing_on
cat trace > ~/trace.log

To locate the root cause, search for error code -22 directly in the file
trace.log and identify the first function that returned -22. Once you
have identified this function, examine its code to determine the root
cause.

For example, in the trace log below, cpu_cgroup_can_attach
returned -22 first, so we can focus our analysis on this function to
identify the root cause.

...

 1)          | cgroup_migrate() {
 1) 0.651 us |   cgroup_migrate_add_task(); /* = 0xffff93fcfd346c00 */
 1)          |   cgroup_migrate_execute() {
 1)          |     cpu_cgroup_can_attach() {
 1)          |       cgroup_taskset_first() {
 1) 0.732 us |         cgroup_taskset_next(); /* = 0xffff93fc8fb20000 */
 1) 1.232 us |       } /* cgroup_taskset_first = 0xffff93fc8fb20000 */
 1) 0.380 us |       sched_rt_can_attach(); /* = 0x0 */
 1) 2.335 us |     } /* cpu_cgroup_can_attach = -22 */
 1) 4.369 us |   } /* cgroup_migrate_execute = -22 */
 1) 7.143 us | } /* cgroup_migrate = -22 */

b576e09701 tracing/probes: Support function parameters if BTF is available
Support function or tracepoint parameters by name if BTF support is enabled
and the event is for function entry (this feature can be used with kprobe-
events, fprobe-events and tracepoint probe events.)

Note that the BTF variable syntax does not require a prefix. If it starts
with an alphabetic character or an underscore ('_') without a prefix like
'$' and '%', it is considered as a BTF variable.
If you specify only the BTF variable name, the argument name will also
be the same name instead of 'arg*'.

334e5519c3 tracing/probes: Add fprobe events for tracing function entry and exit.
Add fprobe events for tracing function entry and exit instead of kprobe
events. With this change, we can continue to trace function entry/exit
even if the CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is not available. Since
CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE requires the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS,
it is not available if the architecture only supports
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. And that means kprobe events can not
probe function entry/exit effectively on such architecture.
But this can be solved if the dynamic events supports fprobe events.

The fprobe event is a new dynamic events which is only for the function
(symbol) entry and exit. This event accepts non register fetch arguments
so that user can trace the function arguments and return values.

The fprobe events syntax is here;

 f[:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION [FETCHARGS]
 f[MAXACTIVE][:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION%return [FETCHARGS]

E.g.

 # echo 'f vfs_read $arg1'  >> dynamic_events
 # echo 'f vfs_read%return $retval'  >> dynamic_events
 # cat dynamic_events
 f:fprobes/vfs_read__entry vfs_read arg1=$arg1
 f:fprobes/vfs_read__exit vfs_read%return arg1=$retval
 # echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
 # head -n 20 trace | tail

88fe1ec75f tracing: Unbreak user events
The user events was added a bit prematurely, and there were a few kernel
developers that had issues with it. The API also needed a bit of work to
make sure it would be stable. It was decided to make user events "broken"
until this was settled. Now it has a new API that appears to be as stable
as it will be without the use of a crystal ball. It's being used within
Microsoft as is, which means the API has had some testing in real world
use cases. It went through many discussions in the bi-weekly tracing
meetings, and there's been no more comments about updates.

I feel this is good to go.

7235759084 tracing/user_events: Use remote writes for event enablement
As part of the discussions for user_events aligned with user space
tracers, it was determined that user programs should register a aligned
value to set or clear a bit when an event becomes enabled. Currently a
shared page is being used that requires mmap(). Remove the shared page
implementation and move to a user registered address implementation.

In this new model during the event registration from user programs 3 new
values are specified. The first is the address to update when the event
is either enabled or disabled. The second is the bit to set/clear to
reflect the event being enabled. The third is the size of the value at
the specified address.

This allows for a local 32/64-bit value in user programs to support
both kernel and user tracers. As an example, setting bit 31 for kernel
tracers when the event becomes enabled allows for user tracers to use
the other bits for ref counts or other flags. The kernel side updates
the bit atomically, user programs need to also update these values
atomically.

User provided addresses must be aligned on a natural boundary, this
allows for single page checking and prevents odd behaviors such as a
enable value straddling 2 pages instead of a single page. Currently
page faults are only logged, future patches will handle these.

60c8971899 ftrace: Make DIRECT_CALLS work WITH_ARGS and !WITH_REGS
Direct called trampolines can be called in two ways:
- either from the ftrace callsite. In this case, they do not access any
  struct ftrace_regs nor pt_regs
- Or, if a ftrace ops is also attached, from the end of a ftrace
  trampoline. In this case, the call_direct_funcs ops is in charge of
  setting the direct call trampoline's address in a struct ftrace_regs

Since:

commit 9705bc7096 ("ftrace: pass fregs to arch_ftrace_set_direct_caller()")

The later case no longer requires a full pt_regs. It only needs a struct
ftrace_regs so DIRECT_CALLS can work with both WITH_ARGS or WITH_REGS.
With architectures like arm64 already abandoning WITH_REGS in favor of
WITH_ARGS, it's important to have DIRECT_CALLS work WITH_ARGS only.

8bf1a529cd arm64 updates for 6.3:
- Support for arm64 SME 2 and 2.1. SME2 introduces a new 512-bit
   architectural register (ZT0, for the look-up table feature) that Linux
   needs to save/restore.
 
 - Include TPIDR2 in the signal context and add the corresponding
   kselftests.
 
 - Perf updates: Arm SPEv1.2 support, HiSilicon uncore PMU updates, ACPI
   support to the Marvell DDR and TAD PMU drivers, reset DTM_PMU_CONFIG
   (ARM CMN) at probe time.
 
 - Support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS on arm64.
 
 - Permit EFI boot with MMU and caches on. Instead of cleaning the entire
   loaded kernel image to the PoC and disabling the MMU and caches before
   branching to the kernel bare metal entry point, leave the MMU and
   caches enabled and rely on EFI's cacheable 1:1 mapping of all of
   system RAM to populate the initial page tables.
 
 - Expose the AArch32 (compat) ELF_HWCAP features to user in an arm64
   kernel (the arm32 kernel only defines the values).
 
 - Harden the arm64 shadow call stack pointer handling: stash the shadow
   stack pointer in the task struct on interrupt, load it directly from
   this structure.
 
 - Signal handling cleanups to remove redundant validation of size
   information and avoid reading the same data from userspace twice.
 
 - Refactor the hwcap macros to make use of the automatically generated
   ID registers. It should make new hwcaps writing less error prone.
 
 - Further arm64 sysreg conversion and some fixes.
 
 - arm64 kselftest fixes and improvements.
 
 - Pointer authentication cleanups: don't sign leaf functions, unify
   asm-arch manipulation.
 
 - Pseudo-NMI code generation optimisations.
 
 - Minor fixes for SME and TPIDR2 handling.
 
 - Miscellaneous updates: ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER is now selectable, replace
   strtobool() to kstrtobool() in the cpufeature.c code, apply dynamic
   shadow call stack in two passes, intercept pfn changes in set_pte_at()
   without the required break-before-make sequence, attempt to dump all
   instructions on unhandled kernel faults.

   architectural register (ZT0, for the look-up table feature) that
   Linux needs to save/restore

 - Include TPIDR2 in the signal context and add the corresponding
   kselftests

 - Perf updates: Arm SPEv1.2 support, HiSilicon uncore PMU updates, ACPI
   support to the Marvell DDR and TAD PMU drivers, reset DTM_PMU_CONFIG
   (ARM CMN) at probe time

 - Support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS on arm64

 - Permit EFI boot with MMU and caches on. Instead of cleaning the
   entire loaded kernel image to the PoC and disabling the MMU and
   caches before branching to the kernel bare metal entry point, leave
   the MMU and caches enabled and rely on EFI's cacheable 1:1 mapping of
   all of system RAM to populate the initial page tables

 - Expose the AArch32 (compat) ELF_HWCAP features to user in an arm64
   kernel (the arm32 kernel only defines the values)

 - Harden the arm64 shadow call stack pointer handling: stash the shadow
   stack pointer in the task struct on interrupt, load it directly from
   this structure

 - Signal handling cleanups to remove redundant validation of size
   information and avoid reading the same data from userspace twice

 - Refactor the hwcap macros to make use of the automatically generated
   ID registers. It should make new hwcaps writing less error prone

 - Further arm64 sysreg conversion and some fixes

 - arm64 kselftest fixes and improvements

 - Pointer authentication cleanups: don't sign leaf functions, unify
   asm-arch manipulation

 - Pseudo-NMI code generation optimisations

 - Minor fixes for SME and TPIDR2 handling

 - Miscellaneous updates: ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER is now selectable,
   replace strtobool() to kstrtobool() in the cpufeature.c code, apply
   dynamic shadow call stack in two passes, intercept pfn changes in
   set_pte_at() without the required break-before-make sequence, attempt
   to dump all instructions on unhandled kernel faults

2455f0e124 tracing: Always use canonical ftrace path
The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.

But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:

  Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
  file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
  For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
  the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:

  /sys/kernel/debug/tracing

Many comments and Kconfig help messages in the tracing code still refer
to this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

cbad0fb2d8 ftrace: Add DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS
Architectures without dynamic ftrace trampolines incur an overhead when
multiple ftrace_ops are enabled with distinct filters. in these cases,
each call site calls a common trampoline which uses
ftrace_ops_list_func() to iterate over all enabled ftrace functions, and
so incurs an overhead relative to the size of this list (including RCU
protection overhead).

Architectures with dynamic ftrace trampolines avoid this overhead for
call sites which have a single associated ftrace_ops. In these cases,
the dynamic trampoline is customized to branch directly to the relevant
ftrace function, avoiding the list overhead.

On some architectures it's impractical and/or undesirable to implement
dynamic ftrace trampolines. For example, arm64 has limited branch ranges
and cannot always directly branch from a call site to an arbitrary
address (e.g. from a kernel text address to an arbitrary module
address). Calls from modules to core kernel text can be indirected via
PLTs (allocated at module load time) to address this, but the same is
not possible from calls from core kernel text.

Using an indirect branch from a call site to an arbitrary trampoline is
possible, but requires several more instructions in the function
prologue (or immediately before it), and/or comes with far more complex
requirements for patching.

Instead, this patch adds a new option, where an architecture can
associate each call site with a pointer to an ftrace_ops, placed at a
fixed offset from the call site. A shared trampoline can recover this
pointer and call ftrace_ops::func() without needing to go via
ftrace_ops_list_func(), avoiding the associated overhead.

This avoids issues with branch range limitations, and avoids the need to
allocate and manipulate dynamic trampolines, making it far simpler to
implement and maintain, while having similar performance
characteristics.

Note that this allows for dynamic ftrace_ops to be invoked directly from
an architecture's ftrace_caller trampoline, whereas existing code forces
the use of ftrace_ops_get_list_func(), which is in part necessary to
permit the ftrace_ops to be freed once unregistered *and* to avoid
branch/address-generation range limitation on some architectures (e.g.
where ops->func is a module address, and may be outside of the direct
branch range for callsites within the main kernel image).

The CALL_OPS approach avoids this problems and is safe as:

* The existing synchronization in ftrace_shutdown() using
  ftrace_shutdown() using synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() (and
  synchronize_rcu_tasks()) ensures that no tasks hold a stale reference
  to an ftrace_ops (e.g. in the middle of the ftrace_caller trampoline,
  or while invoking ftrace_ops::func), when that ftrace_ops is
  unregistered.

  Arguably this could also be relied upon for the existing scheme,
  permitting dynamic ftrace_ops to be invoked directly when ops->func is
  in range, but this will require additional logic to handle branch
  range limitations, and is not handled by this patch.

* Each callsite's ftrace_ops pointer literal can hold any valid kernel
  address, and is updated atomically. As an architecture's ftrace_caller
  trampoline will atomically load the ops pointer then dereference
  ops->func, there is no risk of invoking ops->func with a mismatches
  ops pointer, and updates to the ops pointer do not require special
  care.

A subsequent patch will implement architectures support for arm64. There
should be no functional change as a result of this patch alone.

e25e43a4e5 tracing: Fix complicated dependency of CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE
Both CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER and CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER partially enables the
CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE code, but that is complicated and has
introduced a bug; It declares tracing_max_lat_fops data structure outside
of #ifdefs, but since it is defined only when CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE=y
or CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER=y, if only CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER=y, that
declaration comes to a definition(!).

To fix this issue, and do not repeat the similar problem, makes
CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER and CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER enables the
CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE always. It has there benefits;
- Fix the tracing_max_lat_fops bug
- Simplify the #ifdefs
- CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE code is fully enabled, or not.

94d095ffa0 ftrace: abstract DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS accesses
In subsequent patches we'll arrange for architectures to have an
ftrace_regs which is entirely distinct from pt_regs. In preparation for
this, we need to minimize the use of pt_regs to where strictly necessary
in the core ftrace code.

This patch adds new ftrace_regs_{get,set}_*() helpers which can be used
to manipulate ftrace_regs. When CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS=y,
these can always be used on any ftrace_regs, and when
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS=n these can be used when regs are
available. A new ftrace_regs_has_args(fregs) helper is added which code
can use to check when these are usable.

102227b970 rv: Add Runtime Verification (RV) interface
RV is a lightweight (yet rigorous) method that complements classical
exhaustive verification techniques (such as model checking and
theorem proving) with a more practical approach to complex systems.

RV works by analyzing the trace of the system's actual execution,
comparing it against a formal specification of the system behavior.
RV can give precise information on the runtime behavior of the
monitored system while enabling the reaction for unexpected
events, avoiding, for example, the propagation of a failure on
safety-critical systems.

The development of this interface roots in the development of the
paper:

De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot; Cucinotta, Tommaso; De Oliveira, Romulo
Silva. Efficient formal verification for the Linux kernel. In:
International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods.
Springer, Cham, 2019. p. 315-332.

And:

De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot. Automata-based formal analysis
and verification of the real-time Linux kernel. PhD Thesis, 2020.

The RV interface resembles the tracing/ interface on purpose. The current
path for the RV interface is /sys/kernel/tracing/rv/.

It presents these files:

 "available_monitors"
   - List the available monitors, one per line.

   For example:
     # cat available_monitors
     wip
     wwnr

 "enabled_monitors"
   - Lists the enabled monitors, one per line;
   - Writing to it enables a given monitor;
   - Writing a monitor name with a '!' prefix disables it;
   - Truncating the file disables all enabled monitors.

   For example:
     # cat enabled_monitors
     # echo wip > enabled_monitors
     # echo wwnr >> enabled_monitors
     # cat enabled_monitors
     wip
     wwnr
     # echo '!wip' >> enabled_monitors
     # cat enabled_monitors
     wwnr
     # echo > enabled_monitors
     # cat enabled_monitors
     #

   Note that more than one monitor can be enabled concurrently.

 "monitoring_on"
   - It is an on/off general switcher for monitoring. Note
   that it does not disable enabled monitors or detach events,
   but stop the per-entity monitors of monitoring the events
   received from the system. It resembles the "tracing_on" switcher.

 "monitors/"
   Each monitor will have its one directory inside "monitors/". There
   the monitor specific files will be presented.
   The "monitors/" directory resembles the "events" directory on
   tracefs.

   For example:
     # cd monitors/wip/
     # ls
     desc  enable
     # cat desc
     wakeup in preemptive per-cpu testing monitor.

0a6d7d4541 ftrace: Be more specific about arch impact when function tracer is enabled
It was brought up that on ARMv7, that because the FUNCTION_TRACER does not
use nops to keep function tracing disabled because of the use of a link
register, it does have some performance impact.

The start of functions when -pg is used to compile the kernel is:

	push    {lr}
	bl      8010e7c0 <__gnu_mcount_nc>

When function tracing is tuned off, it becomes:

	push    {lr}
	add   sp, sp, #4

Which just puts the stack back to its normal location. But these two
instructions at the start of every function does incur some overhead.

Be more honest in the Kconfig FUNCTION_TRACER description and specify that
the overhead being in the noise was x86 specific, but other architectures
may vary.

22922deae1 Objtool changes for this cycle were:
- Comprehensive interface overhaul:
    =================================
 
    Objtool's interface has some issues:
 
      - Several features are done unconditionally, without any way to turn
        them off.  Some of them might be surprising.  This makes objtool
        tricky to use, and prevents porting individual features to other
        arches.
 
      - The config dependencies are too coarse-grained.  Objtool enablement is
        tied to CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION, but it has several other features
        independent of that.
 
      - The objtool subcmds ("check" and "orc") are clumsy: "check" is really
        a subset of "orc", so it has all the same options.  The subcmd model
        has never really worked for objtool, as it only has a single purpose:
        "do some combination of things on an object file".
 
      - The '--lto' and '--vmlinux' options are nonsensical and have
        surprising behavior.
 
    Overhaul the interface:
 
       - get rid of subcmds
 
       - make all features individually selectable
 
       - remove and/or clarify confusing/obsolete options
 
       - update the documentation
 
       - fix some bugs found along the way
 
  - Fix x32 regression
 
  - Fix Kbuild cleanup bugs
 
  - Add scripts/objdump-func helper script to disassemble a single function from an object file.
 
  - Rewrite scripts/faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on 'readelf',
    moving it away from 'nm', which doesn't handle multiple sections well,
    which can result in decoding failure.
 
  - Rewrite & fix symbol handling - which had a number of bugs wrt. object files
    that don't have global symbols - which is rare but possible. Also fix a
    bunch of symbol handling bugs found along the way.

03f16cd020 objtool: Add CONFIG_OBJTOOL
Now that stack validation is an optional feature of objtool, add
CONFIG_OBJTOOL and replace most usages of CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION with
it.

CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION can now be considered to be frame-pointer
specific.  CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC is already inherently valid for live
patching, so no need to "validate" it.

835f14ed53 rcu: Make the TASKS_RCU Kconfig option be selected
Currently, any kernel built with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y also gets
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU=y, which is not helpful to people trying to build
preemptible kernels of minimal size.

Because CONFIG_TASKS_RCU=y is needed only in kernels doing tracing of
one form or another, this commit moves from TASKS_RCU deciding when it
should be enabled to the tracing Kconfig options explicitly selecting it.
This allows building preemptible kernels without TASKS_RCU, if desired.

This commit also updates the SRCU-N and TREE09 rcutorture scenarios
in order to avoid Kconfig errors that would otherwise result from
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU being selected without its CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT dependency
being met.

1cd927ad6f tracing: mark user_events as BROKEN
After being merged, user_events become more visible to a wider audience
that have concerns with the current API.

It is too late to fix this for this release, but instead of a full
revert, just mark it as BROKEN (which prevents it from being selected in
make config).  Then we can work finding a better API.  If that fails,
then it will need to be completely reverted.

To not have the code silently bitrot, still allow building it with
COMPILE_TEST.

And to prevent the uapi header from being installed, then later changed,
and then have an old distro user space see the old version, move the
header file out of the uapi directory.

Surround the include with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST to the current location,
but when the BROKEN tag is taken off, it will use the uapi directory,
and fail to compile.  This is a good way to remind us to move the header
back.

169e77764a Networking changes for 5.18.
Core
 ----
 
  - Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with
    jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).
 
  - Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
    Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
    Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
    to complete out of order.
 
  - Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
    maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).
 
  - Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout
    the stack.
 
  - Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
    allocated per-CPU counters.
 
  - Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
    sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
 
  - Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
    marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
    Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower
    iTLB pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from
    getting split.
 
  - Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
    the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
 
  - Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop
    the user-mode-driver dependency.
 
  - Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
    its use as a packet generator.
 
  - Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if called
    from a hook allowed to sleep.
 
  - Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
    bits to come later).
 
  - Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
    kfunc infra.
 
  - Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
 
  - Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
 
  - Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
 
  - Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
 
  - Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
    without BTF info.
 
  - Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
 
  - Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
    links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.
 
  - Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
    via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
    behavior.
 
  - VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
    configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
 
  - Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
 
  - Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
    given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
 
  - Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
 
  - Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
    Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
 
  - Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
 
  - tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
    doubling the performance in some scenarios.
 
  - IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
 
  - Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
    neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
    Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
 
  - SMC
    - improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
    - support auto-corking
    - support TCP_NODELAY
 
  - MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
    - add user space tag control interface
    - I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
 
  - Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
 
  - Bluetooth:
    - handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
    - add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
 
  - Multi-Path TCP:
    - add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
    - lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
 
  - Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
    offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
    software interfaces such as tunnels.
 
  - Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
    physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
 
  - Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
    drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
    which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
 
  - Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling
    of TCP zero-copy Rx.
 
  - Allow configuring completion queue event size.
 
  - Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
 
  - Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
 
  - Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
    reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
 
  - DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
    - replay and offload of host VLAN entries
    - offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
    - FDB isolation and unicast filtering

     called from a hook allowed to sleep.

   - Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
     bits to come later).

   - Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
     kfunc infra.

   - Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.

   - Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.

   - Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.

   - Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.

   - Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
     without BTF info.

   - Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.

  Protocols
  ---------

   - Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.

   - Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
     links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.

   - Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
     via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
     behavior.

   - VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
     configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.

   - Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.

   - Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
     given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)

   - Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.

   - Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
     Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.

   - Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).

   - tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
     doubling the performance in some scenarios.

   - IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.

   - Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
     neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
     Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.

   - SMC
      - improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
      - support auto-corking
      - support TCP_NODELAY

   - MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
      - add user space tag control interface
      - I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)

   - Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.

   - Bluetooth:
      - handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
      - add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events

   - Multi-Path TCP:
      - add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
      - lots of selftest cleanups and improvements

   - Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.

  Driver API
  ----------

   - Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
     offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
     software interfaces such as tunnels.

   - Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
     physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.

   - Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
     drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
     which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.

   - Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of
     TCP zero-copy Rx.

   - Allow configuring completion queue event size.

   - Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.

   - Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.

   - Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
     reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.

54ecbe6f1e rethook: Add a generic return hook
Add a return hook framework which hooks the function return. Most of the
logic came from the kretprobe, but this is independent from kretprobe.

Note that this is expected to be used with other function entry hooking
feature, like ftrace, fprobe, adn kprobes. Eventually this will replace
the kretprobe (e.g. kprobe + rethook = kretprobe), but at this moment,
this is just an additional hook.

cad9931f64 fprobe: Add ftrace based probe APIs
The fprobe is a wrapper API for ftrace function tracer.
Unlike kprobes, this probes only supports the function entry, but this
can probe multiple functions by one fprobe. The usage is similar, user
will set their callback to fprobe::entry_handler and call
register_fprobe*() with probed functions.
There are 3 registration interfaces,

 - register_fprobe() takes filtering patterns of the functin names.
 - register_fprobe_ips() takes an array of ftrace-location addresses.
 - register_fprobe_syms() takes an array of function names.

The registered fprobes can be unregistered with unregister_fprobe().
e.g.

struct fprobe fp = { .entry_handler = user_handler };
const char *targets[] = { "func1", "func2", "func3"};
...

ret = register_fprobe_syms(&fp, targets, ARRAY_SIZE(targets));

...

unregister_fprobe(&fp);

7f5a08c79d user_events: Add minimal support for trace_event into ftrace
Minimal support for interacting with dynamic events, trace_event and
ftrace. Core outline of flow between user process, ioctl and trace_event
APIs.

User mode processes that wish to use trace events to get data into
ftrace, perf, eBPF, etc are limited to uprobes today. The user events
features enables an ABI for user mode processes to create and write to
trace events that are isolated from kernel level trace events. This
enables a faster path for tracing from user mode data as well as opens
managed code to participate in trace events, where stub locations are
dynamic.

User processes often want to trace only when it's useful. To enable this
a set of pages are mapped into the user process space that indicate the
current state of the user events that have been registered. User
processes can check if their event is hooked to a trace/probe, and if it
is, emit the event data out via the write() syscall.

Two new files are introduced into tracefs to accomplish this:
user_events_status - This file is mmap'd into participating user mode
processes to indicate event status.

user_events_data - This file is opened and register/delete ioctl's are
issued to create/open/delete trace events that can be used for tracing.

The typical scenario is on process start to mmap user_events_status. Processes
then register the events they plan to use via the REG ioctl. The ioctl reads
and updates the passed in user_reg struct. The status_index of the struct is
used to know the byte in the status page to check for that event. The
write_index of the struct is used to describe that event when writing out to
the fd that was used for the ioctl call. The data must always include this
index first when writing out data for an event. Data can be written either by
write() or by writev().

For example, in memory:
int index;
char data[];

Psuedo code example of typical usage:
struct user_reg reg;

int page_fd = open("user_events_status", O_RDWR);
char *page_data = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, page_fd, 0);
close(page_fd);

int data_fd = open("user_events_data", O_RDWR);

reg.size = sizeof(reg);
reg.name_args = (__u64)"test";

ioctl(data_fd, DIAG_IOCSREG, &reg);
int status_id = reg.status_index;
int write_id = reg.write_index;

struct iovec io[2];
io[0].iov_base = &write_id;
io[0].iov_len = sizeof(write_id);
io[1].iov_base = payload;
io[1].iov_len = sizeof(payload);

if (page_data[status_id])
	writev(data_fd, io, 2);

User events are also exposed via the dynamic_events tracefs file for
both create and delete. Current status is exposed via the user_events_status
tracefs file.

Simple example to register a user event via dynamic_events:
	echo u:test >> dynamic_events
	cat dynamic_events
	u:test

If an event is hooked to a probe, the probe hooked shows up:
	echo 1 > events/user_events/test/enable
	cat user_events_status
	1:test # Used by ftrace

	Active: 1
	Busy: 1
	Max: 4096

If an event is not hooked to a probe, no probe status shows up:
	echo 0 > events/user_events/test/enable
	cat user_events_status
	1:test

	Active: 1
	Busy: 0
	Max: 4096

Users can describe the trace event format via the following format:
	name[:FLAG1[,FLAG2...] [field1[;field2...]]

Each field has the following format:
	type name

Example for char array with a size of 20 named msg:
	echo 'u:detailed char[20] msg' >> dynamic_events
	cat dynamic_events
	u:detailed char[20] msg

Data offsets are based on the data written out via write() and will be
updated to reflect the correct offset in the trace_event fields. For dynamic
data it is recommended to use the new __rel_loc data type. This type will be
the same as __data_loc, but the offset is relative to this entry. This allows
user_events to not worry about what common fields are being inserted before
the data.

The above format is valid for both the ioctl and the dynamic_events file.

4ed308c445 ftrace: Have architectures opt-in for mcount build time sorting
First S390 complained that the sorting of the mcount sections at build
time caused the kernel to crash on their architecture. Now PowerPC is
complaining about it too. And also ARM64 appears to be having issues.

It may be necessary to also update the relocation table for the values
in the mcount table. Not only do we have to sort the table, but also
update the relocations that may be applied to the items in the table.

If the system is not relocatable, then it is fine to sort, but if it is,
some architectures may have issues (although x86 does not as it shifts all
addresses the same).

Add a HAVE_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT that an architecture can set to say it is
safe to do the sorting at build time.

Also update the config to compile in build time sorting in the sorttable
code in scripts/ to depend on CONFIG_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT.

6b9b641370 ftrace: Fix assuming build time sort works for s390
To speed up the boot process, as mcount_loc needs to be sorted for ftrace
to work properly, sorting it at build time is more efficient than boot up
and can save milliseconds of time. Unfortunately, this change broke s390
as it will modify the mcount_loc location after the sorting takes place
and will put back the unsorted locations. Since the sorting is skipped at
boot up if it is believed that it was sorted at run time, ftrace can crash
as its algorithms are dependent on the list being sorted.

Add a new config BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT that is set when
BUILDTIME_TABLE_SORT but not if S390 is set. Use this config to determine
if sorting should take place at boot up.

12f9951d3f tracing: define needed config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS
Commit 2860cd8a23 ("livepatch: Use the default ftrace_ops instead of
REGS when ARGS is available") intends to enable config LIVEPATCH when
ftrace with ARGS is available. However, the chain of configs to enable
LIVEPATCH is incomplete, as HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is available,
but the definition of DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, combining DYNAMIC_FTRACE
and HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, needed to enable LIVEPATCH, is missing
in the commit.

Fortunately, ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py detects this and warns:

DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS
Referencing files: kernel/livepatch/Kconfig

So, define the config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS analogously to the already
existing similar configs, DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and
DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS, in ./kernel/trace/Kconfig to connect the
chain of configs.

a955d7eac1 trace: Add timerlat tracer
The timerlat tracer aims to help the preemptive kernel developers to
found souces of wakeup latencies of real-time threads. Like cyclictest,
the tracer sets a periodic timer that wakes up a thread. The thread then
computes a *wakeup latency* value as the difference between the *current
time* and the *absolute time* that the timer was set to expire. The main
goal of timerlat is tracing in such a way to help kernel developers.

Usage

Write the ASCII text "timerlat" into the current_tracer file of the
tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing).

For example:

        [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo timerlat > current_tracer

It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file:

  [root@f32 tracing]# cat trace
  # tracer: timerlat
  #

The tracer creates a per-cpu kernel thread with real-time priority that
prints two lines at every activation. The first is the *timer latency*
observed at the *hardirq* context before the activation of the thread.
The second is the *timer latency* observed by the thread, which is the
same level that cyclictest reports. The ACTIVATION ID field
serves to relate the *irq* execution to its respective *thread* execution.

The irq/thread splitting is important to clarify at which context
the unexpected high value is coming from. The *irq* context can be
delayed by hardware related actions, such as SMIs, NMIs, IRQs
or by a thread masking interrupts. Once the timer happens, the delay
can also be influenced by blocking caused by threads. For example, by
postponing the scheduler execution via preempt_disable(),  by the
scheduler execution, or by masking interrupts. Threads can
also be delayed by the interference from other threads and IRQs.

The timerlat can also take advantage of the osnoise: traceevents.
For example:

        [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo timerlat > current_tracer
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > set_event

bce29ac9ce trace: Add osnoise tracer
In the context of high-performance computing (HPC), the Operating System
Noise (*osnoise*) refers to the interference experienced by an application
due to activities inside the operating system. In the context of Linux,
NMIs, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and any other system thread can cause noise to the
system. Moreover, hardware-related jobs can also cause noise, for example,
via SMIs.

The osnoise tracer leverages the hwlat_detector by running a similar
loop with preemption, SoftIRQs and IRQs enabled, thus allowing all
the sources of *osnoise* during its execution. Using the same approach
of hwlat, osnoise takes note of the entry and exit point of any
source of interferences, increasing a per-cpu interference counter. The
osnoise tracer also saves an interference counter for each source of
interference. The interference counter for NMI, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and
threads is increased anytime the tool observes these interferences' entry
events. When a noise happens without any interference from the operating
system level, the hardware noise counter increases, pointing to a
hardware-related noise. In this way, osnoise can account for any
source of interference. At the end of the period, the osnoise tracer
prints the sum of all noise, the max single noise, the percentage of CPU
available for the thread, and the counters for the noise sources.

Usage

Write the ASCII text "osnoise" into the current_tracer file of the
tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing).

For example::

        [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > current_tracer

It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file::

        [root@f32 tracing]# cat trace
        # tracer: osnoise
        #
        #                                _-----=> irqs-off

In addition to the regular trace fields (from TASK-PID to TIMESTAMP), the
tracer prints a message at the end of each period for each CPU that is
running an osnoise/CPU thread. The osnoise specific fields report:

 - The RUNTIME IN USE reports the amount of time in microseconds that
   the osnoise thread kept looping reading the time.
 - The NOISE IN US reports the sum of noise in microseconds observed
   by the osnoise tracer during the associated runtime.
 - The % OF CPU AVAILABLE reports the percentage of CPU available for
   the osnoise thread during the runtime window.
 - The MAX SINGLE NOISE IN US reports the maximum single noise observed
   during the runtime window.
 - The Interference counters display how many each of the respective
   interference happened during the runtime window.

Note that the example above shows a high number of HW noise samples.
The reason being is that this sample was taken on a virtual machine,
and the host interference is detected as a hardware interference.

Tracer options

The tracer has a set of options inside the osnoise directory, they are:

 - osnoise/cpus: CPUs at which a osnoise thread will execute.
 - osnoise/period_us: the period of the osnoise thread.
 - osnoise/runtime_us: how long an osnoise thread will look for noise.
 - osnoise/stop_tracing_us: stop the system tracing if a single noise
   higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this
   option.
 - osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us: stop the system tracing if total noise
   higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this
   option.
 - tracing_threshold: the minimum delta between two time() reads to be
   considered as noise, in us. When set to 0, the default value will
   be used, which is currently 5 us.

Additional Tracing

In addition to the tracer, a set of tracepoints were added to
facilitate the identification of the osnoise source.

 - osnoise:sample_threshold: printed anytime a noise is higher than
   the configurable tolerance_ns.
 - osnoise:nmi_noise: noise from NMI, including the duration.
 - osnoise:irq_noise: noise from an IRQ, including the duration.
 - osnoise:softirq_noise: noise from a SoftIRQ, including the
   duration.
 - osnoise:thread_noise: noise from a thread, including the duration.

Note that all the values are *net values*. For example, if while osnoise
is running, another thread preempts the osnoise thread, it will start a
thread_noise duration at the start. Then, an IRQ takes place, preempting
the thread_noise, starting a irq_noise. When the IRQ ends its execution,
it will compute its duration, and this duration will be subtracted from
the thread_noise, in such a way as to avoid the double accounting of the
IRQ execution. This logic is valid for all sources of noise.

Here is one example of the usage of these tracepoints::

       osnoise/8-961     [008] d.h.  5789.857532: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.857529929 duration 1845 ns
       osnoise/8-961     [008] dNh.  5789.858408: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.858404871 duration 2848 ns
     migration/8-54      [008] d...  5789.858413: thread_noise: migration/8:54 start 5789.858409300 duration 3068 ns
       osnoise/8-961     [008] ....  5789.858413: sample_threshold: start 5789.858404555 duration 8723 ns interferences 2

In this example, a noise sample of 8 microseconds was reported in the last
line, pointing to two interferences. Looking backward in the trace, the
two previous entries were about the migration thread running after a
timer IRQ execution. The first event is not part of the noise because
it took place one millisecond before.

It is worth noticing that the sum of the duration reported in the
tracepoints is smaller than eight us reported in the sample_threshold.
The reason roots in the overhead of the entry and exit code that happens
before and after any interference execution. This justifies the dual
approach: measuring thread and tracing.

4b9091e1c1 kernel: trace: preemptirq_delay_test: add cpu affinity
The kernel thread executing test can run on any cpu, which might be
different cpu latency tracer is running on, as a result, the
big latency caused by preemptirq delay test can't be detected.

Therefore, the argument cpu_affinity is added to be passed to test,
ensure it's running on the same cpu with latency tracer.

e.g.
cyclictest -p 90 -m -c 0 -i 1000 -a 3
modprobe preemptirq_delay_test test_mode=preempt delay=500 \
burst_size=3 cpu_affinity=3

7bb83f6fc4 tracing/kprobes: Do the notrace functions check without kprobes on ftrace
Enable the notrace function check on the architecture which doesn't
support kprobes on ftrace but support dynamic ftrace. This notrace
function check is not only for the kprobes on ftrace but also
sw-breakpoint based kprobes.
Thus there is no reason to limit this check for the arch which
supports kprobes on ftrace.

This also changes the dependency of Kconfig. Because kprobe event
uses the function tracer's address list for identifying notrace
function, if the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=n, it can not check whether
the target function is notrace or not.

3b15cdc159 tracing: move function tracer options to Kconfig
Move function tracer options to Kconfig to make it easier to add
new methods for generating __mcount_loc, and to make the options
available also when building kernel modules.

Note that FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_* options are updated on rebuild and
therefore, work even if the .config was generated in a different
environment.

09c0796adf Tracing updates for 5.11
The major update to this release is that there's a new arch config option called:
 CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. Currently, only x86_64 enables it.
 All the ftrace callbacks now take a struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct
 pt_regs. If the architecture has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then
 the ftrace_regs will have enough information to read the arguments of the
 function being traced, as well as access to the stack pointer. This way, if
 a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the arguments, then it
 can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback, that puts in enough
 information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate a breakpoint exception
 (needed for kprobes).
 
 New config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring buffer at
 most every event recorded.  The "check_buffer()" calls will conflict with
 mainline, because I purposely added the check without including the fix that
 it caught, which is in mainline. Running a kernel built from the commit of
 the added check will trigger it.
 
 Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection to
 the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those
 callbacks).
 
 Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace to do
 it for it (saving on that extra function call).
 
 New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that lists all
 the places that triggered the recursion protection of the function tracer.
 This will show where things need to be fixed as recursion slows down the
 function tracer.
 
 The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a work
 queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.
 
 Various clean ups and last minute fixes.

7a932e5702 asm-generic: cross-architecture timer cleanup
This cleans up two ancient timer features that were never completed in
 the past, CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and CONFIG_ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET.
 
 There was only one user left for the ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET variant
 of clocksource implementations, the ARM EBSA110 platform. Rather than
 changing to use modern timekeeping, we remove the platform entirely as
 Russell no longer uses his machine and nobody else seems to have one
 any more.
 
 The conditional code for using arch_gettimeoffset() is removed as
 a result.
 
 For CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, there are still a couple of platforms
 not using clockevent drivers: parisc, ia64, most of m68k, and one
 Arm platform. These all do timer ticks slighly differently, and this
 gets cleaned up to the point they at least all call the same helper
 function. Instead of most platforms using 'select GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS'
 in Kconfig, the polarity is now reversed, with the few remaining ones
 selecting LEGACY_TIMER_TICK instead.

5b7be9c709 ring-buffer: Add test to validate the time stamp deltas
While debugging a situation where a delta for an event was calucalted wrong,
I realize there was nothing making sure that the delta of events are
correct. If a single event has an incorrect delta, then all events after it
will also have one. If the discrepency gets large enough, it could cause
the time stamps to go backwards when crossing sub buffers, that record a
full 64 bit time stamp, and the new deltas are added to that.

Add a way to validate the events at most events and when crossing a buffer
page. This will help make sure that the deltas are always correct. This test
will detect if they are ever corrupted.

The test adds a high overhead to the ring buffer recording, as it does the
audit for almost every event, and should only be used for testing the ring
buffer.

This will catch the bug that is fixed by commit 55ea4cf403 ("ring-buffer:
Update write stamp with the correct ts"), which is not applied when this
commit is applied.

02a474ca26 ftrace/x86: Allow for arguments to be passed in to ftrace_regs by default
Currently, the only way to get access to the registers of a function via a
ftrace callback is to set the "FL_SAVE_REGS" bit in the ftrace_ops. But as this
saves all regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger (for use with kprobes), it
is expensive.

The regs are already saved on the stack for the default ftrace callbacks, as
that is required otherwise a function being traced will get the wrong
arguments and possibly crash. And on x86, the arguments are already stored
where they would be on a pt_regs structure to use that code for both the
regs version of a callback, it makes sense to pass that information always
to all functions.

If an architecture does this (as x86_64 now does), it is to set
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, and this will let the generic code that it
could have access to arguments without having to set the flags.

This also includes having the stack pointer being saved, which could be used
for accessing arguments on the stack, as well as having the function graph
tracer not require its own trampoline!
