Pull CRC updates from Eric Biggers: - Reorganize the architecture-optimized CRC32 and CRC-T10DIF code to be directly accessible via the library API, instead of requiring the crypto API. This is much simpler and more efficient. - Convert some users such as ext4 to use the CRC32 library API instead of the crypto API. More conversions like this will come later. - Add a KUnit test that tests and benchmarks multiple CRC variants. Remove older, less-comprehensive tests that are made redundant by this. - Add an entry to MAINTAINERS for the kernel's CRC library code. I'm volunteering to maintain it. I have additional cleanups and optimizations planned for future cycles. * tag 'crc-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux: (31 commits) MAINTAINERS: add entry for CRC library powerpc/crc: delete obsolete crc-vpmsum_test.c lib/crc32test: delete obsolete crc32test.c lib/crc16_kunit: delete obsolete crc16_kunit.c lib/crc_kunit.c: add KUnit test suite for CRC library functions powerpc/crc-t10dif: expose CRC-T10DIF function through lib arm64/crc-t10dif: expose CRC-T10DIF function through lib arm/crc-t10dif: expose CRC-T10DIF function through lib x86/crc-t10dif: expose CRC-T10DIF function through lib crypto: crct10dif - expose arch-optimized lib function lib/crc-t10dif: add support for arch overrides lib/crc-t10dif: stop wrapping the crypto API scsi: target: iscsi: switch to using the crc32c library f2fs: switch to using the crc32 library jbd2: switch to using the crc32c library ext4: switch to using the crc32c library lib/crc32: make crc32c() go directly to lib bcachefs: Explicitly select CRYPTO from BCACHEFS_FS x86/crc32: expose CRC32 functions through lib x86/crc32: update prototype for crc32_pclmul_le_16() ...

Merge tag 'ftrace-v6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

2025-01-21T23:15:28Z

Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt: - Have fprobes built on top of function graph infrastructure The fprobe logic is an optimized kprobe that uses ftrace to attach to functions when a probe is needed at the start or end of the function. The fprobe and kretprobe logic implements a similar method as the function graph tracer to trace the end of the function. That is to hijack the return address and jump to a trampoline to do the trace when the function exits. To do this, a shadow stack needs to be created to store the original return address. Fprobes and function graph do this slightly differently. Fprobes (and kretprobes) has slots per callsite that are reserved to save the return address. This is fine when just a few points are traced. But users of fprobes, such as BPF programs, are starting to add many more locations, and this method does not scale. The function graph tracer was created to trace all functions in the kernel. In order to do this, when function graph tracing is started, every task gets its own shadow stack to hold the return address that is going to be traced. The function graph tracer has been updated to allow multiple users to use its infrastructure. Now have fprobes be one of those users. This will also allow for the fprobe and kretprobe methods to trace the return address to become obsolete. With new technologies like CFI that need to know about these methods of hijacking the return address, going toward a solution that has only one method of doing this will make the kernel less complex. - Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in the error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free memory when the function exits. - Remove disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer When function graph tracer was first introduced, it could race with interrupts and NMIs. To prevent that race, it would disable interrupts and not trace NMIs. But the code has changed to allow NMIs and also interrupts. This change was done a long time ago, but the disabling of interrupts was never removed. Remove the disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer is it is not needed. This greatly improves its performance. - Allow the :mod: command to enable tracing module functions on the kernel command line. The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be traced in modules by writing ":mod:" into set_ftrace_filter. That will enable either all the functions for the module if it is loaded, or if it is not, it will cache that command, and when the module is loaded that matches , its functions will be enabled. This also allows init functions to be traced. But currently events do not have that feature. Because enabling function tracing can be done very early at boot up (before scheduling is enabled), the commands that can be done when function tracing is started is limited. Having the ":mod:" command to trace module functions as they are loaded is very useful. Update the kernel command line function filtering to allow it. * tag 'ftrace-v6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (26 commits) ftrace: Implement :mod: cache filtering on kernel command line tracing: Adopt __free() and guard() for trace_fprobe.c bpf: Use ftrace_get_symaddr() for kprobe_multi probes ftrace: Add ftrace_get_symaddr to convert fentry_ip to symaddr Documentation: probes: Update fprobe on function-graph tracer selftests/ftrace: Add a test case for repeating register/unregister fprobe selftests: ftrace: Remove obsolate maxactive syntax check tracing/fprobe: Remove nr_maxactive from fprobe fprobe: Add fprobe_header encoding feature fprobe: Rewrite fprobe on function-graph tracer s390/tracing: Enable HAVE_FTRACE_GRAPH_FUNC ftrace: Add CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_GRAPH_FUNC bpf: Enable kprobe_multi feature if CONFIG_FPROBE is enabled tracing/fprobe: Enable fprobe events with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS tracing: Add ftrace_fill_perf_regs() for perf event tracing: Add ftrace_partial_regs() for converting ftrace_regs to pt_regs fprobe: Use ftrace_regs in fprobe exit handler fprobe: Use ftrace_regs in fprobe entry handler fgraph: Pass ftrace_regs to retfunc fgraph: Replace fgraph_ret_regs with ftrace_regs ...

ftrace: Add CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_GRAPH_FUNC

Add CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_GRAPH_FUNC kconfig in addition to ftrace_graph_func macro check. This is for the other feature (e.g. FPROBE) which requires to access ftrace_regs from fgraph_ops::entryfunc() can avoid compiling if the fgraph can not pass the valid ftrace_regs.

powerpc: Add preempt lazy support

2024-12-19T08:51:08Z

Define preempt lazy bit for Powerpc. Use bit 9 which is free and within 16 bit range of NEED_RESCHED, so compiler can issue single andi. Since Powerpc doesn't use the generic entry/exit, add lazy check at exit to user. CONFIG_PREEMPTION is defined for lazy/full/rt so use it for return to kernel. Ran a few benchmarks and db workload on Power10. Performance is close to preempt=none/voluntary. Since Powerpc systems can have large core count and large memory, preempt lazy is going to be helpful in avoiding soft lockup issues.

powerpc/crc-t10dif: expose CRC-T10DIF function through lib

2024-12-02T01:23:13Z

Move the powerpc CRC-T10DIF assembly code into the lib directory and wire it up to the library interface. This allows it to be used without going through the crypto API. It remains usable via the crypto API too via the shash algorithms that use the library interface. Thus all the arch-specific "shash" code becomes unnecessary and is removed.

Pull vdso data page handling updates from Thomas Gleixner: "First steps of consolidating the VDSO data page handling. The VDSO data page handling is architecture specific for historical reasons, but there is no real technical reason to do so. Aside of that VDSO data has become a dump ground for various mechanisms and fail to provide a clear separation of the functionalities. Clean this up by: - consolidating the VDSO page data by getting rid of architecture specific warts especially in x86 and PowerPC. - removing the last includes of header files which are pulling in other headers outside of the VDSO namespace. - seperating timekeeping and other VDSO data accordingly. Further consolidation of the VDSO page handling is done in subsequent changes scheduled for the next merge window. This also lays the ground for expanding the VDSO time getters for independent PTP clocks in a generic way without making every architecture add support seperately" * tag 'timers-vdso-2024-11-18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (42 commits) x86/vdso: Add missing brackets in switch case vdso: Rename struct arch_vdso_data to arch_vdso_time_data powerpc: Split systemcfg struct definitions out from vdso powerpc: Split systemcfg data out of vdso data page powerpc: Add kconfig option for the systemcfg page powerpc/pseries/lparcfg: Use num_possible_cpus() for potential processors powerpc/pseries/lparcfg: Fix printing of system_active_processors powerpc/procfs: Propagate error of remap_pfn_range() powerpc/vdso: Remove offset comment from 32bit vdso_arch_data x86/vdso: Split virtual clock pages into dedicated mapping x86/vdso: Delete vvar.h x86/vdso: Access vdso data without vvar.h x86/vdso: Move the rng offset to vsyscall.h x86/vdso: Access rng vdso data without vvar.h x86/vdso: Access timens vdso data without vvar.h x86/vdso: Allocate vvar page from C code x86/vdso: Access rng data from kernel without vvar x86/vdso: Place vdso_data at beginning of vvar page x86/vdso: Use __arch_get_vdso_data() to access vdso data x86/mm/mmap: Remove arch_vma_name() ...

crash, powerpc: default to CRASH_DUMP=n on PPC_BOOK3S_32

2024-11-15T06:43:48Z

Fixes boot failures on 6.9 on PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines using Open Firmware. On these machines, the kernel refuses to boot from non-zero PHYSICAL_START, which occurs when CRASH_DUMP is on. Since most PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines boot via Open Firmware, it should default to off for them. Users booting via some other mechanism can still turn it on explicitly. Does not change the default on any other architectures for the time being.
