Pull unused tracepoints update from Steven Rostedt:
"Detect unused tracepoints.
If a tracepoint is defined but never used (TRACE_EVENT() created but
no trace_<tracepoint>() called), it can take up to or more than 5K of
memory each. This can add up as there are around a hundred unused
tracepoints with various configs. That is 500K of wasted memory.
Add a make build parameter of "UT=1" to have the build warn if an
unused tracepoint is detected in the build. This allows detection of
unused tracepoints to be upstream so that outreachy and the mentoring
project can have new developers look for fixing them, without having
these warnings suddenly show up when someone upgrades their kernel.
When all known unused tracepoints are removed, then the "UT=1" build
parameter can be removed and unused tracepoints will always warn. This
will catch new unused tracepoints after the current ones have been
removed.
Summary:
- Separate out elf functions from sorttable.c
Move out the ELF parsing functions from sorttable.c so that the
tracing tooling can use it.
- Add a tracepoint verifier tool to the build process
If "UT=1" is added to the kernel command line, any unused
tracepoints will trigger a warning at build time.
- Do not warn about unused tracepoints for tracepoints that are
exported
There are sever cases where a tracepoint is created by the kernel
and used by modules. Since there's no easy way to detect if these
are truly unused since the users are in modules, if a tracepoint is
exported, assume it will eventually be used by a module. Note,
there's not many exported tracepoints so this should not be a
problem to ignore them.
- Have building of modules also detect unused tracepoints
Do not only check the main vmlinux for unused tracepoints, also
check modules. If a module is defining a tracepoint it should be
using it.
- Add the tracepoint-update program to the ignore file
The new tracepoint-update program needs to be ignored by git"

Pull rseq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large overhaul of the restartable sequences and CID management:
The recent enablement of RSEQ in glibc resulted in regressions which
are caused by the related overhead. It turned out that the decision to
invoke the exit to user work was not really a decision. More or less
each context switch caused that. There is a long list of small issues
which sums up nicely and results in a 3-4% regression in I/O
benchmarks.
The other detail which caused issues due to extra work in context
switch and task migration is the CID (memory context ID) management.
It also requires to use a task work to consolidate the CID space,
which is executed in the context of an arbitrary task and results in
sporadic uncontrolled exit latencies.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Removing deprecated and long unsupported functionality
- Moving the related data into dedicated data structures which are
optimized for fast path processing.
- Caching values so actual decisions can be made
- Replacing the current implementation with a optimized inlined
variant.
- Separating fast and slow path for architectures which use the
generic entry code, so that only fault and error handling goes into
the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME handler.
- Rewriting the CID management so that it becomes mostly invisible in
the context switch path. That moves the work of switching modes
into the fork/exit path, which is a reasonable tradeoff. That work
is only required when a process creates more threads than the
cpuset it is allowed to run on or when enough threads exit after
that. An artificial thread pool benchmarks which triggers this did
not degrade, it actually improved significantly.
The main effect in migration heavy scenarios is that runqueue lock
held time and therefore contention goes down significantly"

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- klp-build livepatch module generation (Josh Poimboeuf)
Introduce new objtool features and a klp-build script to generate
livepatch modules using a source .patch as input.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch
project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to
generate livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a
complete rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+
years of maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for
symbol/section/reloc inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines
script which injects #line directives into the source .patch to
preserve the original line numbers at compile time.
- Disassemble code with libopcodes instead of running objdump
(Alexandre Chartre)
- Disassemble support (-d option to objtool) by Alexandre Chartre,
which supports the decoding of various Linux kernel code generation
specials such as alternatives:

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Cheaper MAY_EXEC handling for path lookup. This elides MAY_WRITE
permission checks during path lookup and adds the
IOP_FASTPERM_MAY_EXEC flag so filesystems like btrfs can avoid
expensive permission work.
- Hide dentry_cache behind runtime const machinery.
- Add German Maglione as virtiofs co-maintainer.
Cleanups:
- Tidy up and inline step_into() and walk_component() for improved
code generation.
- Re-enable IOCB_NOWAIT writes to files. This refactors file
timestamp update logic, fixing a layering bypass in btrfs when
updating timestamps on device files and improving FMODE_NOCMTIME
handling in VFS now that nfsd started using it.
- Path lookup optimizations extracting slowpaths into dedicated

- Enable clang's -fms-extensions flag, requiring a JFS rename to
avoid conflicts.
- Remove spurious exports in fs/file_attr.c.
- Stop duplicating union pipe_index declaration. This depends on the

Fixes:
- Fix emergency sync for btrfs. Btrfs requires an explicit sync_fs()
call with wait == 1 to commit super blocks. The emergency sync path
never passed this, leaving btrfs data uncommitted during emergency

Ritesh reported that timeouts occurred frequently for rqspinlock despite
reentrancy on the same lock on the same CPU in [0]. This patch closes
one of the races leading to this behavior, and reduces the frequency of
timeouts.
We currently have a tiny window between the fast-path cmpxchg and the
grabbing of the lock entry where an NMI could land, attempt the same
lock that was just acquired, and end up timing out. This is not ideal.
Instead, move the lock entry acquisition from the fast path to before
the cmpxchg, and remove the grabbing of the lock entry in the slow path,
assuming it was already taken by the fast path. The TAS fallback is
invoked directly without being preceded by the typical fast path,
therefore we must continue to grab the deadlock detection entry in that
case.
Case on lock leading to missed AA:
cmpxchg lock A
<NMI>
... rqspinlock acquisition of A
... timeout
</NMI>
grab_held_lock_entry(A)
There is a similar case when unlocking the lock. If the NMI lands
between the WRITE_ONCE and smp_store_release, it is possible that we end
up in a situation where the NMI fails to diagnose the AA condition,
leading to a timeout.
Case on unlock leading to missed AA:
WRITE_ONCE(rqh->locks[rqh->cnt - 1], NULL)
<NMI>
... rqspinlock acquisition of A
... timeout
</NMI>
smp_store_release(A->locked, 0)
The patch changes the order on unlock to smp_store_release() succeeded
by WRITE_ONCE() of NULL. This avoids the missed AA detection described
above, but may lead to a false positive if the NMI lands between these
two statements, which is acceptable (and preferred over a timeout).
The original intention of the reverse order on unlock was to prevent the
following possible misdiagnosis of an ABBA scenario:
grab entry A
lock A
grab entry B
lock B
unlock B
smp_store_release(B->locked, 0)
grab entry B
lock B
grab entry A
lock A
! <detect ABBA>
WRITE_ONCE(rqh->locks[rqh->cnt - 1], NULL)
If the store release were is after the WRITE_ONCE, the other CPU would
not observe B in the table of the CPU unlocking the lock B. However,
since the threads are obviously participating in an ABBA deadlock, it
is no longer appealing to use the order above since it may lead to a
250 ms timeout due to missed AA detection.

Some platforms can customize the PTE/PMD entry uffd-wp bit making it
unavailable even if the architecture provides the resource. This patch
adds a macro API pgtable_supports_uffd_wp() that allows architectures to
define their specific implementations to check if the uffd-wp bit is
available on which device the kernel is running.
Also this patch is removing "ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP" and
"ifdef CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP" in favor of pgtable_supports_uffd_wp()
and uffd_supports_wp_marker() checks respectively that default to
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP) and
"IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP) &&
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP)" if not overridden by the
architecture, no change in behavior is expected.

Patch series "mm: remove is_swap_[pte, pmd]() + non-swap entries,
introduce leaf entries", v3.
There's an established convention in the kernel that we treat leaf page
tables (so far at the PTE, PMD level) as containing 'swap entries' should
they be neither empty (i.e. p**_none() evaluating true) nor present (i.e.
p**_present() evaluating true).
However, at the same time we also have helper predicates - is_swap_pte(),
is_swap_pmd() - which are inconsistently used.
This is problematic, as it is logical to assume that should somebody wish
to operate upon a page table swap entry they should first check to see if
it is in fact one.
It also implies that perhaps, in future, we might introduce a non-present,
none page table entry that is not a swap entry.
This series resolves this issue by systematically eliminating all use of
the is_swap_pte() and is swap_pmd() predicates so we retain only the
convention that should a leaf page table entry be neither none nor present
it is a swap entry.
We also have the further issue that 'swap entry' is unfortunately a really
rather overloaded term and in fact refers to both entries for swap and for
other information such as migration entries, page table markers, and
device private entries.
We therefore have the rather 'unique' concept of a 'non-swap' swap entry.
This series therefore introduces the concept of 'software leaf entries',
of type softleaf_t, to eliminate this confusion.
A software leaf entry in this sense is any page table entry which is
non-present, and represented by the softleaf_t type. That is - page table
leaf entries which are software-controlled by the kernel.
This includes 'none' or empty entries, which are simply represented by an
zero leaf entry value.
In order to maintain compatibility as we transition the kernel to this new
type, we simply typedef swp_entry_t to softleaf_t.
We introduce a number of predicates and helpers to interact with software
leaf entries in include/linux/leafops.h which, as it imports swapops.h,
can be treated as a drop-in replacement for swapops.h wherever leaf entry
helpers are used.
Since softleaf_from_[pte, pmd]() treats present entries as they were
empty/none leaf entries, this allows for a great deal of simplification of
code throughout the code base, which this series utilises a great deal.
We additionally change from swap entry to software leaf entry handling
where it makes sense to and eliminate functions from swapops.h where
software leaf entries obviate the need for the functions.
This patch (of 16):
PTE markers were previously only concerned with UFFD-specific logic - that
is, PTE entries with the UFFD WP marker set or those marked via
UFFDIO_POISON.
However since the introduction of guard markers in commit 7c53dfbdb024
("mm: add PTE_MARKER_GUARD PTE marker"), this has no longer been the case.
Issues have been avoided as guard regions are not permitted in conjunction
with UFFD, but it still leaves very confusing logic in place, most notably
the misleading and poorly named pte_none_mostly() and
huge_pte_none_mostly().
This predicate returns true for PTE entries that ought to be treated as
none, but only in certain circumstances, and on the assumption we are
dealing with H/W poison markers or UFFD WP markers.
This patch removes these functions and makes each invocation of these
functions instead explicitly check what it needs to check.
As part of this effort it introduces is_uffd_pte_marker() to explicitly
determine if a marker in fact is used as part of UFFD or not.
In the HMM logic we note that the only time we would need to check for a
fault is in the case of a UFFD WP marker, otherwise we simply encounter a
fault error (VM_FAULT_HWPOISON for H/W poisoned marker, VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV
for a guard marker), so only check for the UFFD WP case.
While we're here we also refactor code to make it easier to understand.

Now that the API is in place, mark kernel page table pages just after they
are allocated. Unmark them just before they are freed.
Note: Unconditionally clearing the 'kernel' marking (via
ptdesc_clear_kernel()) would be functionally identical to what is here.
But having the if() makes it logically clear that this function can be
used for kernel and non-kernel page tables.
