When the :mod: command is written into /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event (or
that file within an instance), if the module specified after the ":mod:"
is not yet loaded, it will store that string internally. When the module
is loaded, it will enable the events as if the module was loaded when the
string was written into the set_event file.
This can also be useful to enable events that are in the init section of
the module, as the events are enabled before the init section is executed.
This also works on the kernel command line:
trace_event=:mod:<module>
Will enable the events for <module> when it is loaded.

Currently, large folio swap-in is supported, but we lack a method to
analyze their success ratio. Similar to anon_fault_fallback, we introduce
per-order mTHP swpin_fallback and swpin_fallback_charge counters for
calculating their success ratio. The new counters are located at:
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-<size>/stats/
swpin_fallback
swpin_fallback_charge

Now the tmpfs can allow to allocate any sized large folios, and the default
huge policy is still preferred to be 'never'. Due to tmpfs not behaving like
other file systems in some cases as previously explained by David[1]:
: I think I raised this in the past, but tmpfs/shmem is just like any
: other file system .. except it sometimes really isn't and behaves much
: more like (swappable) anonymous memory. (or mlocked files)
:
: There are many systems out there that run without swap enabled, or with
: extremely minimal swap (IIRC until recently kubernetes was completely
: incompatible with swapping). Swap can even be disabled today for shmem
: using a mount option.
:
: That's a big difference to all other file systems where you are
: guaranteed to have backend storage where you can simply evict under
: memory pressure (might temporarily fail, of course).
:
: I *think* that's the reason why we have the "huge=" parameter that also
: controls the THP allocations during page faults (IOW possible memory
: over-allocation). Maybe also because it was a new feature, and we only
: had a single THP size.
Thus adding a new command line to change the default huge policy will be
helpful to use the large folios for tmpfs, which is similar to the
'transparent_hugepage_shmem' cmdline for shmem.

At the bottom of the bug-hunting.rst file there is a "signature" which
doesn't seem to make much sense. It seems to predate git, and perhaps
was from an earlier bug report that got copied into the document, but
now makes no sense so remove it.

All architectures now support HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT, so the flag is
no longer needed. With the removal of the flag, the related
GENERIC_SYSCALL_TABLE can also be removed.
libaudit was only used as a fallback for when HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT
was not defined, so libaudit is also no longer needed for any
architecture.

This code is based on the RDMA and misc cgroup initially, but now
uses page_counter. It uses the same min/low/max semantics as the memory
cgroup as a result.
There's a small mismatch as TTM uses u64, and page_counter long pages.
In practice it's not a problem. 32-bits systems don't really come with
>=4GB cards and as long as we're consistently wrong with units, it's
fine. The device page size may not be in the same units as kernel page
size, and each region might also have a different page size (VRAM vs GART
for example).
The interface is simple:
- Call dmem_cgroup_register_region()
- Use dmem_cgroup_try_charge to check if you can allocate a chunk of memory,
use dmem_cgroup__uncharge when freeing it. This may return an error code,
or -EAGAIN when the cgroup limit is reached. In that case a reference
to the limiting pool is returned.
- The limiting cs can be used as compare function for
dmem_cgroup_state_evict_valuable.
- After having evicted enough, drop reference to limiting cs with
dmem_cgroup_pool_state_put.
This API allows you to limit device resources with cgroups.
You can see the supported cards in /sys/fs/cgroup/dmem.capacity
You need to echo +dmem to cgroup.subtree_control, and then you can
partition device memory.

This commit adds rcutorture module parameters gp_cond_wi, gp_cond_wi_exp,
gp_poll_wi, and gp_poll_wi_exp to control the wait interval for
conditional, conditional expedited, polled, and polled expedited grace
periods, respectively. When rcu_torture_writer() is testing these types
of grace periods, hrtimers are used to randomly wait up to the specified
number of microseconds, but with nanosecond granularity.
In the case of conditional grace periods (get_state_synchronize_rcu()
and cond_synchronize_rcu(), for example) there is just one
wait. For polled grace periods (start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and
poll_state_synchronize_rcu(), for example), there is a repeated series
of waits until the grace period ends.
For normal grace periods, the default is 16 jiffies (for example, 16,000
microseconds on a HZ=1000 system) and for expedited grace periods the
default is 128 microseconds.

Although the event of the uncore PMU can only be opened on a single
CPU, some PMU does have the affinity on a range of CPUs. For example
the L3C PMU is associated to the CPUs sharing the L3T it monitors.
Users may infer this affinity by the PMU name which may have SCCL ID
and CCL ID encoded (for L3C etc), but it's not that straightforward.
So export this information by adding an "associated_cpus" sysfs
attribute then user can get this directly.

Each TAD provides eight 64-bit counters for monitoring
cache behavior.The driver always configures the same counter for
all the TADs. The user would end up effectively reserving one of
eight counters in every TAD to look across all TADs.
The occurrences of events are aggregated and presented to the user
at the end of running the workload. The driver does not provide a
way for the user to partition TADs so that different TADs are used for
different applications.
The performance events reflect various internal or interface activities.
By combining the values from multiple performance counters, cache
performance can be measured in terms such as: cache miss rate, cache
allocations, interface retry rate, internal resource occupancy, etc.
Each supported counter's event and formatting information is exposed
to sysfs at /sys/devices/tad/. Use perf tool stat command to measure
the pmu events. For instance:
perf stat -e tad_hit_ltg,tad_hit_dtg <workload>

Odyssey DRAM Subsystem supports eight counters for monitoring performance
and software can program those counters to monitor any of the defined
performance events. Supported performance events include those counted
at the interface between the DDR controller and the PHY, interface between
the DDR Controller and the CHI interconnect, or within the DDR Controller.
Additionally DSS also supports two fixed performance event counters, one
for ddr reads and the other for ddr writes.

Some NVIDIA PMUs like the NVLINK-C2C, CNVLINK, and PCIE PMU provide
port filtering. If the port filter is set to zero, the counter of
these PMUs will not capture any event. To avoid meaningless
experiment, the driver sets the port filter value to a default
non-zero value.

The "isolcpus=nohz" boot parameter and flag were used to disable tick
when running a single task. Nowsdays, this "nohz" flag is seldomly used
as it is included as part of the "nohz_full" parameter. Extend this
flag to cover other kernel noises disabled by the "nohz_full" parameter
to make them equivalent. This also eliminates the need to use both the
"isolcpus" and the "nohz_full" parameters to fully isolated a given
set of CPUs.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pci/pci
Pull PCI updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Make pci_stop_dev() and pci_destroy_dev() safe so concurrent
callers can't stop a device multiple times, even as we migrate from
the global pci_rescan_remove_lock to finer-grained locking (Keith
Busch)
- Improve pci_walk_bus() implementation by making it recursive and
moving locking up to avoid need for a 'locked' parameter (Keith
Busch)
- Unexport pci_walk_bus_locked(), which is only used internally by
the PCI core (Keith Busch)
- Detect some Thunderbolt chips that are built-in and hence
'trustworthy' by a heuristic since the 'ExternalFacingPort' and
'usb4-host-interface' ACPI properties are not quite enough (Esther
Shimanovich)
Resource management:
- Use PCI bus addresses (not CPU addresses) in 'ranges' properties
when building dynamic DT nodes so systems where PCI and CPU
addresses differ work correctly (Andrea della Porta)
- Tidy resource sizing and assignment with helpers to reduce
redundancy (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Improve pdev_sort_resources() 'bogus alignment' warning to be more
specific (Ilpo Järvinen)
Driver binding:
- Convert driver .remove_new() callbacks to .remove() again to finish
the conversion from returning 'int' to being 'void' (Sergio
Paracuellos)
- Export pcim_request_all_regions(), a managed interface to request
all BARs (Philipp Stanner)
- Replace pcim_iomap_regions_request_all() with
pcim_request_all_regions(), and pcim_iomap_table()[n] with
pcim_iomap(n), in the following drivers: ahci, crypto qat, crypto
octeontx2, intel_th, iwlwifi, ntb idt, serial rp2, ALSA korg1212
(Philipp Stanner)
- Remove the now unused pcim_iomap_regions_request_all() (Philipp
Stanner)
- Export pcim_iounmap_region(), a managed interface to unmap and
release a PCI BAR (Philipp Stanner)
- Replace pcim_iomap_regions(mask) with pcim_iomap_region(n), and
pcim_iounmap_regions(mask) with pcim_iounmap_region(n), in the
following drivers: fpga dfl-pci, block mtip32xx, gpio-merrifield,
cavium (Philipp Stanner)
Error handling:
- Add sysfs 'reset_subordinate' to reset the entire hierarchy below a
bridge; previously Secondary Bus Reset could only be used when
there was a single device below a bridge (Keith Busch)
- Warn if we reset a running device where the driver didn't register
pci_error_handlers notification callbacks (Keith Busch)
ASPM:
- Disable ASPM L1 before touching L1 PM Substates to follow the spec
closer and avoid a CPU load timeout on some platforms (Ajay
Agarwal)
- Set devices below Intel VMD to D0 before enabling ASPM L1 Substates
as required per spec for all L1 Substates changes (Jian-Hong Pan)
Power management:
- Enable starfive controller runtime PM before probing host bridge
(Mayank Rana)
- Enable runtime power management for host bridges (Krishna chaitanya
chundru)
Power control:
- Use of_platform_device_create() instead of of_platform_populate()
to create pwrctl platform devices so we can control it based on the
child nodes (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Create pwrctrl platform devices only if there's a relevant power
supply property (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Add device link from the pwrctl supplier to the PCI dev to ensure
pwrctl drivers are probed before the PCI dev driver; this avoids a
race where pwrctl could change device power state while the PCI
driver was active (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Find pwrctl device for removal with of_find_device_by_node()
instead of searching all children of the parent (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
- Rename 'pwrctl' to 'pwrctrl' to match new bandwidth controller
('bwctrl') and hotplug files (Bjorn Helgaas)
Bandwidth control:
- Add read/modify/write locking for Link Control 2, which is used to
manage Link speed (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Extract Link Bandwidth Management Status check into
pcie_lbms_seen(), where it can be shared between the bandwidth
controller and quirks that use it to help retrain failed links
(Ilpo Järvinen)
- Re-add Link Bandwidth notification support with updates to address
the reasons it was previously reverted (Alexandru Gagniuc, Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Add pcie_set_target_speed() and related functionality so drivers
can manage PCIe Link speed based on thermal or other constraints
(Ilpo Järvinen)
- Add a thermal cooling driver to throttle PCIe Links via the
existing thermal management framework (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Add a userspace selftest for the PCIe bandwidth controller (Ilpo
Järvinen)
PCI device hotplug:
- Add hotplug controller driver for Marvell OCTEON multi-function
device where function 0 has a management console interface to
enable/disable and provision various personalities for the other
functions (Shijith Thotton)
- Retain a reference to the pci_bus for the lifetime of a pci_slot to
avoid a use-after-free when the thunderbolt driver resets USB4 host
routers on boot, causing hotplug remove/add of downstream docks or
other devices (Lukas Wunner)
- Remove unused cpcihp struct cpci_hp_controller_ops.hardware_test
(Guilherme Giacomo Simoes)
- Remove unused cpqphp struct ctrl_dbg.ctrl (Christophe JAILLET)
- Use pci_bus_read_dev_vendor_id() instead of hand-coded presence
detection in cpqphp (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Simplify cpqphp enumeration, which is already simple-minded and
doesn't handle devices below hot-added bridges (Ilpo Järvinen)
Virtualization:
- Add ACS quirk for Wangxun FF5xxx NICs, which don't advertise an ACS
capability but do isolate functions as though PCI_ACS_RR and
PCI_ACS_CR were set, so the functions can be in independent IOMMU
groups (Mengyuan Lou)
TLP Processing Hints (TPH):
- Add and document TLP Processing Hints (TPH) support so drivers can
enable and disable TPH and the kernel can save/restore TPH
configuration (Wei Huang)
- Add TPH Steering Tag support so drivers can retrieve Steering Tag
values associated with specific CPUs via an ACPI _DSM to improve
performance by directing DMA writes closer to their consumers (Wei
Huang)
Data Object Exchange (DOE):
- Wait up to 1 second for DOE Busy bit to clear before writing a
request to the mailbox to avoid failures if the mailbox is still
busy from a previous transfer (Gregory Price)
Endpoint framework:
- Skip attempts to allocate from endpoint controller memory window if
the requested size is larger than the window (Damien Le Moal)
- Add and document pci_epc_mem_map() and pci_epc_mem_unmap() to
handle controller-specific size and alignment constraints, and add
test cases to the endpoint test driver (Damien Le Moal)
- Implement dwc pci_epc_ops.align_addr() so pci_epc_mem_map() can
observe DWC-specific alignment requirements (Damien Le Moal)
- Synchronously cancel command handler work in endpoint test before
cleaning up DMA and BARs (Damien Le Moal)
- Respect endpoint page size in dw_pcie_ep_align_addr() (Niklas
Cassel)
- Use dw_pcie_ep_align_addr() in dw_pcie_ep_raise_msi_irq() and
dw_pcie_ep_raise_msix_irq() instead of open coding the equivalent
(Niklas Cassel)
- Avoid NULL dereference if Modem Host Interface Endpoint lacks
'mmio' DT property (Zhongqiu Han)
- Release PCI domain ID of Endpoint controller parent (not controller
itself) and before unregistering the controller, to avoid
use-after-free (Zijun Hu)
- Clear secondary (not primary) EPC in pci_epc_remove_epf() when
removing the secondary controller associated with an NTB (Zijun Hu)
Cadence PCIe controller driver:
- Lower severity of 'phy-names' message (Bartosz Wawrzyniak)
Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:
- Fix suspend/resume support on i.MX6QDL, which has a hardware
erratum that prevents use of L2 (Stefan Eichenberger)

MediaTek PCIe Gen3 controller driver:
- Update mediatek-gen3 DT binding to require the exact number of
clocks for each SoC (Fei Shao)
- Add support for DT 'max-link-speed' and 'num-lanes' properties to
restrict the link speed and width (AngeloGioacchino Del Regno)
Microchip PolarFlare PCIe controller driver:
- Add DT and driver support for using either of the two PolarFire
Root Ports (Conor Dooley)
NVIDIA Tegra194 PCIe controller driver:
- Move endpoint controller cleanups that depend on refclk from the
host to the notifier that tells us the host has deasserted PERST#,
when refclk should be valid (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:
- Add qcom SAR2130P DT binding with an additional clock (Dmitry
Baryshkov)
- Enable MSI interrupts if 'global' IRQ is supported, since a
previous commit unintentionally masked them (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Move endpoint controller cleanups that depend on refclk from the
host to the notifier that tells us the host has deasserted PERST#,
when refclk should be valid (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Add DT binding and driver support for IPQ9574, with Synopsys IP
v5.80a and Qcom IP 1.27.0 (devi priya)
- Move the OPP "operating-points-v2" table from the
qcom,pcie-sm8450.yaml DT binding to qcom,pcie-common.yaml, where it
can be used by other Qcom platforms (Qiang Yu)
- Add 'global' SPI interrupt for events like link-up, link-down to
qcom,pcie-x1e80100 DT binding so we can start enumeration when the
link comes up (Qiang Yu)
- Disable ASPM L0s for qcom,pcie-x1e80100 since the PHY is not tuned
to support this (Qiang Yu)
- Add ops_1_21_0 for SC8280X family SoC, which doesn't use the
'iommu-map' DT property and doesn't need BDF-to-SID translation
(Qiang Yu)
Rockchip PCIe controller driver:
- Define ROCKCHIP_PCIE_AT_SIZE_ALIGN to replace magic 256 endpoint
.align value (Damien Le Moal)
- When unmapping an endpoint window, compute the region index instead
of searching for it, and verify that the address was mapped (Damien
Le Moal)
- When mapping an endpoint window, verify that the address hasn't
been mapped already (Damien Le Moal)
- Implement pci_epc_ops.align_addr() for rockchip-ep (Damien Le Moal)
- Fix MSI IRQ data mapping to observe the alignment constraint, which
fixes intermittent page faults in memcpy_toio() and memcpy_fromio()
(Damien Le Moal)
- Rename rockchip_pcie_parse_ep_dt() to
rockchip_pcie_ep_get_resources() for consistency with similar DT
interfaces (Damien Le Moal)
- Skip the unnecessary link train in rockchip_pcie_ep_probe() and do
it only in the endpoint start operation (Damien Le Moal)
- Implement pci_epc_ops.stop_link() to disable link training and
controller configuration (Damien Le Moal)
- Attempt link training at 5 GT/s when both partners support it
(Damien Le Moal)
- Add a handler for PERST# signal so we can detect host-initiated
resets and start link training after PERST# is deasserted (Damien
Le Moal)
Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Clear outbound address on unmap so dw_pcie_find_index() won't match
an ATU index that was already unmapped (Damien Le Moal)
- Use of_property_present() instead of of_property_read_bool() when
testing for presence of non-boolean DT properties (Rob Herring)
- Advertise 1MB size if endpoint supports Resizable BARs, which was
inadvertently lost in v6.11 (Niklas Cassel)
TI J721E PCIe driver:
- Add PCIe support for J722S SoC (Siddharth Vadapalli)
- Delay PCIE_T_PVPERL_MS (100 ms), not just PCIE_T_PERST_CLK_US (100
us), before deasserting PERST# to ensure power and refclk are
stable (Siddharth Vadapalli)
