Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix printf format warning for bprintf

   sunrpc uses a trace_printk() that triggers a printf warning during
   the compile. Move the __printf() attribute around for when debugging
   is not enabled the warning will go away

 - Remove redundant check for EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED in
   event_filter_write()

   The FREED flag is checked in the call to event_file_file() and then
   checked again right afterward, which is unneeded

 - Clean up event_file_file() and event_file_data() helpers

   These helper functions played a different role in the past, but now
   with eventfs, the READ_ONCE() isn't needed. Simplify the code a bit
   and also add a warning to event_file_data() if the file or its data
   is not present

 - Remove updating file-&gt;private_data in tracing open

   All access to the file private data is handled by the helper
   functions, which do not use file-&gt;private_data. Stop updating it on
   open

 - Show ENUM names in function arguments via BTF in function tracing

   When showing the function arguments when func-args option is set for
   function tracing, if one of the arguments is found to be an enum,
   show the name of the enum instead of its number

 - Add new trace_call__##name() API for tracepoints

   Tracepoints are enabled via static_branch() blocks, where when not
   enabled, there's only a nop that is in the code where the execution
   will just skip over it. When tracing is enabled, the nop is converted
   to a direct jump to the tracepoint code. Sometimes more calculations
   are required to be performed to update the parameters of the
   tracepoint. In this case, trace_##name##_enabled() is called which is
   a static_branch() that gets enabled only when the tracepoint is
   enabled. This allows the extra calculations to also be skipped by the
   nop:

	if (trace_foo_enabled()) {
		x = bar();
		trace_foo(x);
	}

   Where the x=bar() is only performed when foo is enabled. The problem
   with this approach is that there's now two static_branch() calls. One
   for checking if the tracepoint is enabled, and then again to know if
   the tracepoint should be called. The second one is redundant

   Introduce trace_call__foo() that will call the foo() tracepoint
   directly without doing a static_branch():

	if (trace_foo_enabled()) {
		x = bar();
		trace_call__foo();
	}

 - Update various locations to use the new trace_call__##name() API

 - Move snapshot code out of trace.c

   Cleaning up trace.c to not be a "dump all", move the snapshot code
   out of it and into a new trace_snapshot.c file

 - Clean up some "%*.s" to "%*s"

 - Allow boot kernel command line options to be called multiple times

   Have options like:

	ftrace_filter=foo ftrace_filter=bar ftrace_filter=zoo

   Equal to:

	ftrace_filter=foo,bar,zoo

 - Fix ipi_raise event CPU field to be a CPU field

   The ipi_raise target_cpus field is defined as a __bitmask(). There is
   now a __cpumask() field definition. Update the field to use that

 - Have hist_field_name() use a snprintf() and not a series of strcat()

   It's safer to use snprintf() that a series of strcat()

 - Fix tracepoint regfunc balancing

   A tracepoint can define a "reg" and "unreg" function that gets called
   before the tracepoint is enabled, and after it is disabled
   respectively. But on error, after the "reg" func is called and the
   tracepoint is not enabled, the "unreg" function is not called to tear
   down what the "reg" function performed

 - Fix output that shows what histograms are enabled

   Event variables are displayed incorrectly in the histogram output

   Instead of "sched.sched_wakeup.$var", it is showing
   "$sched.sched_wakeup.var" where the '$' is in the incorrect location

 - Some other simple cleanups

Pull runtime verification updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Refactor da_monitor header to share handlers across monitor types

   No functional changes, only less code duplication.

 - Add Hybrid Automata model class

   Add a new model class that extends deterministic automata by adding
   constraints on transitions and states. Those constraints can take
   into account wall-clock time and as such allow RV monitor to make
   assertions on real time. Add documentation and code generation
   scripts.

 - Add stall monitor as hybrid automaton example

   Add a monitor that triggers a violation when a task is stalling as an
   example of automaton working with real time variables.

 - Convert the opid monitor to a hybrid automaton

   The opid monitor can be heavily simplified if written as a hybrid
   automaton: instead of tracking preempt and interrupt enable/disable
   events, it can just run constraints on the preemption/interrupt
   states when events like wakeup and need_resched verify.

 - Add support for per-object monitors in DA/HA

   Allow writing deterministic and hybrid automata monitors for generic
   objects (e.g. any struct), by exploiting a hash table where objects
   are saved. This allows to track more than just tasks in RV. For
   instance it will be used to track deadline entities in deadline
   monitors.

 - Add deadline tracepoints and move some deadline utilities

   Prepare the ground for deadline monitors by defining events and
   exporting helpers.

 - Add nomiss deadline monitor

   Add first example of deadline monitor asserting all entities complete
   before their deadline.

 - Improve rvgen error handling

   Introduce AutomataError exception class and better handle expected
   exceptions while showing a backtrace for unexpected ones.

 - Improve python code quality in rvgen

   Refactor the rvgen generation scripts to align with python best
   practices: use f-strings instead of %, use len() instead of
   __len__(), remove semicolons, use context managers for file
   operations, fix whitespace violations, extract magic strings into
   constants, remove unused imports and methods.

 - Fix small bugs in rvgen

   The generator scripts presented some corner case bugs: logical error
   in validating what a correct dot file looks like, fix an isinstance()
   check, enforce a dot file has an initial state, fix type annotations
   and typos in comments.

 - rvgen refactoring

   Refactor automata.py to use iterator-based parsing and handle
   required arguments directly in argparse.

 - Allow epoll in rtapp-sleep monitor

   The epoll_wait call is now rt-friendly so it should be allowed in the
   sleep monitor as a valid sleep method.

Pull sched_ext updates from Tejun Heo:

 - cgroup sub-scheduler groundwork

   Multiple BPF schedulers can be attached to cgroups and the dispatch
   path is made hierarchical. This involves substantial restructuring of
   the core dispatch, bypass, watchdog, and dump paths to be
   per-scheduler, along with new infrastructure for scheduler ownership
   enforcement, lifecycle management, and cgroup subtree iteration

   The enqueue path is not yet updated and will follow in a later cycle

 - scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() generalized to support any DSQ including remote
   local DSQs and user DSQs

   Built on top of this, SCX_ENQ_IMMED guarantees that tasks dispatched
   to local DSQs either run immediately or get reenqueued back through
   ops.enqueue(), giving schedulers tighter control over queueing
   latency

   Also useful for opportunistic CPU sharing across sub-schedulers

 - ops.dequeue() was only invoked when the core knew a task was in BPF
   data structures, missing scheduling property change events and
   skipping callbacks for non-local DSQ dispatches from ops.select_cpu()

   Fixed to guarantee exactly one ops.dequeue() call when a task leaves
   BPF scheduler custody

 - Kfunc access validation moved from runtime to BPF verifier time,
   removing runtime mask enforcement

 - Idle SMT sibling prioritization in the idle CPU selection path

 - Documentation, selftest, and tooling updates. Misc bug fixes and
   cleanups

Pull timer core updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - A rework of the hrtimer subsystem to reduce the overhead for
   frequently armed timers, especially the hrtick scheduler timer:

     - Better timer locality decision

     - Simplification of the evaluation of the first expiry time by
       keeping track of the neighbor timers in the RB-tree by providing
       a RB-tree variant with neighbor links. That avoids walking the
       RB-tree on removal to find the next expiry time, but even more
       important allows to quickly evaluate whether a timer which is
       rearmed changes the position in the RB-tree with the modified
       expiry time or not. If not, the dequeue/enqueue sequence which
       both can end up in rebalancing can be completely avoided.

     - Deferred reprogramming of the underlying clock event device. This
       optimizes for the situation where a hrtimer callback sets the
       need resched bit. In that case the code attempts to defer the
       re-programming of the clock event device up to the point where
       the scheduler has picked the next task and has the next hrtick
       timer armed. In case that there is no immediate reschedule or
       soft interrupts have to be handled before reaching the reschedule
       point in the interrupt entry code the clock event is reprogrammed
       in one of those code paths to prevent that the timer becomes
       stale.

     - Support for clocksource coupled clockevents

       The TSC deadline timer is coupled to the TSC. The next event is
       programmed in TSC time. Currently this is done by converting the
       CLOCK_MONOTONIC based expiry value into a relative timeout,
       converting it into TSC ticks, reading the TSC adding the delta
       ticks and writing the deadline MSR.

       As the timekeeping core has the conversion factors for the TSC
       already, the whole back and forth conversion can be completely
       avoided. The timekeeping core calculates the reverse conversion
       factors from nanoseconds to TSC ticks and utilizes the base
       timestamps of TSC and CLOCK_MONOTONIC which are updated once per
       tick. This allows a direct conversion into the TSC deadline value
       without reading the time and as a bonus keeps the deadline
       conversion in sync with the TSC conversion factors, which are
       updated by adjtimex() on systems with NTP/PTP enabled.

     - Allow inlining of the clocksource read and clockevent write
       functions when they are tiny enough, e.g. on x86 RDTSC and WRMSR.

   With all those enhancements in place a hrtick enabled scheduler
   provides the same performance as without hrtick. But also other
   hrtimer users obviously benefit from these optimizations.

 - Robustness improvements and cleanups of historical sins in the
   hrtimer and timekeeping code.

 - Rewrite of the clocksource watchdog.

   The clocksource watchdog code has over time reached the state of an
   impenetrable maze of duct tape and staples. The original design,
   which was made in the context of systems far smaller than today, is
   based on the assumption that the to be monitored clocksource (TSC)
   can be trivially compared against a known to be stable clocksource
   (HPET/ACPI-PM timer).

   Over the years this rather naive approach turned out to have major
   flaws. Long delays between the watchdog invocations can cause wrap
   arounds of the reference clocksource. The access to the reference
   clocksource degrades on large multi-sockets systems dure to
   interconnect congestion. This has been addressed with various
   heuristics which degraded the accuracy of the watchdog to the point
   that it fails to detect actual TSC problems on older hardware which
   exposes slow inter CPU drifts due to firmware manipulating the TSC to
   hide SMI time.

   The rewrite addresses this by:

     - Restricting the validation against the reference clocksource to
       the boot CPU which is usually closest to the legacy block which
       contains the reference clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM).

     - Do a round robin validation betwen the boot CPU and the other
       CPUs based only on the TSC with an algorithm similar to the TSC
       synchronization code during CPU hotplug.

     - Being more leniant versus remote timeouts

 - The usual tiny fixes, cleanups and enhancements all over the place

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Once again, cpufreq is the most active development area, mostly
  because of the new feature additions and documentation updates in the
  amd-pstate driver, but there are also changes in the cpufreq core
  related to boost support and other assorted updates elsewhere.

  Next up are power capping changes due to the major cleanup of the
  Intel RAPL driver.

  On the cpuidle front, a new C-states table for Intel Panther Lake is
  added to the intel_idle driver, the stopped tick handling in the menu
  and teo governors is updated, and there are a couple of cleanups.

  Apart from the above, support for Tegra114 is added to devfreq and
  there are assorted cleanups of that code, there are also two updates
  of the operating performance points (OPP) library, two minor updates
  related to hibernation, and cpupower utility man pages updates and
  cleanups.

  Specifics:

   - Update qcom-hw DT bindings to include Eliza hardware (Abel Vesa)

   - Update cpufreq-dt-platdev blocklist (Faruque Ansari)

   - Minor updates to driver and dt-bindings for Tegra (Thierry Reding,
     Rosen Penev)

   - Add MAINTAINERS entry for CPPC driver (Viresh Kumar)

   - Add support for new features: CPPC performance priority, Dynamic
     EPP, Raw EPP, and new unit tests for them to amd-pstate (Gautham
     Shenoy, Mario Limonciello)

   - Fix sysfs files being present when HW missing and broken/outdated
     documentation in the amd-pstate driver (Ninad Naik, Gautham Shenoy)

   - Pass the policy to cpufreq_driver-&gt;adjust_perf() to avoid using
     cpufreq_cpu_get() in the .adjust_perf() callback in amd-pstate
     which leads to a scheduling-while-atomic bug (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Clean up dead code in Kconfig for cpufreq (Julian Braha)

   - Remove max_freq_req update for pre-existing cpufreq policy and add
     a boost_freq_req QoS request to save the boost constraint instead
     of overwriting the last scaling_max_freq constraint (Pierre
     Gondois)

   - Embed cpufreq QoS freq_req objects in cpufreq policy so they all
     are allocated in one go along with the policy to simplify lifetime
     rules and avoid error handling issues (Viresh Kumar)

   - Use DMI max speed when CPPC is unavailable in the acpi-cpufreq
     scaling driver (Henry Tseng)

   - Switch policy_is_shared() in cpufreq to using cpumask_nth() instead
     of cpumask_weight() because the former is more efficient (Yury
     Norov)

   - Use sysfs_emit() in sysfs show functions for cpufreq governor
     attributes (Thorsten Blum)

   - Update intel_pstate to stop returning an error when "off" is
     written to its status sysfs attribute while the driver is already
     off (Fabio De Francesco)

   - Include current frequency in the debug message printed by
     __cpufreq_driver_target() (Pengjie Zhang)

   - Refine stopped tick handling in the menu cpuidle governor and
     rearrange stopped tick handling in the teo cpuidle governor (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Add Panther Lake C-states table to the intel_idle driver (Artem
     Bityutskiy)

   - Clean up dead dependencies on CPU_IDLE in Kconfig (Julian Braha)

   - Simplify cpuidle_register_device() with guard() (Huisong Li)

   - Use performance level if available to distinguish between rates in
     OPP debugfs (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Fix scoped_guard in dev_pm_opp_xlate_required_opp() (Viresh Kumar)

   - Return -ENODATA if the snapshot image is not loaded (Alberto
     Garcia)

   - Remove inclusion of crypto/hash.h from hibernate_64.c on x86 (Eric
     Biggers)

   - Clean up and rearrange the intel_rapl power capping driver to make
     the respective interface drivers (TPMI, MSR, and MMOI) hold their
     own settings and primitives and consolidate PL4 and PMU support
     flags into rapl_defaults (Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan)

   - Correct kernel-doc function parameter names in the power capping
     core code (Randy Dunlap)

   - Remove unneeded casting for HZ_PER_KHZ in devfreq (Andy Shevchenko)

   - Use _visible attribute to replace create/remove_sysfs_files() in
     devfreq (Pengjie Zhang)

   - Add Tegra114 support to activity monitor device in tegra30-devfreq
     as a preparation to upcoming EMC controller support (Svyatoslav
     Ryhel)

   - Fix mistakes in cpupower man pages, add the boost and epp options
     to the cpupower-frequency-info man page, and add the perf-bias
     option to the cpupower-info man page (Roberto Ricci)

   - Remove unnecessary extern declarations from getopt.h in arguments
     parsing functions in cpufreq-set, cpuidle-info, cpuidle-set,
     cpupower-info, and cpupower-set utilities (Kaushlendra Kumar)"

  and teo governors is updated, and there are a couple of cleanups.

  Apart from the above, support for Tegra114 is added to devfreq and
  there are assorted cleanups of that code, there are also two updates
  of the operating performance points (OPP) library, two minor updates
  related to hibernation, and cpupower utility man pages updates and
  cleanups.

  Specifics:

   - Update qcom-hw DT bindings to include Eliza hardware (Abel Vesa)

   - Update cpufreq-dt-platdev blocklist (Faruque Ansari)

   - Minor updates to driver and dt-bindings for Tegra (Thierry Reding,
     Rosen Penev)

   - Add MAINTAINERS entry for CPPC driver (Viresh Kumar)

   - Add support for new features: CPPC performance priority, Dynamic
     EPP, Raw EPP, and new unit tests for them to amd-pstate (Gautham
     Shenoy, Mario Limonciello)

   - Fix sysfs files being present when HW missing and broken/outdated
     documentation in the amd-pstate driver (Ninad Naik, Gautham Shenoy)

   - Pass the policy to cpufreq_driver-&gt;adjust_perf() to avoid using
     cpufreq_cpu_get() in the .adjust_perf() callback in amd-pstate
     which leads to a scheduling-while-atomic bug (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Clean up dead code in Kconfig for cpufreq (Julian Braha)

   - Remove max_freq_req update for pre-existing cpufreq policy and add
     a boost_freq_req QoS request to save the boost constraint instead
     of overwriting the last scaling_max_freq constraint (Pierre
     Gondois)

   - Embed cpufreq QoS freq_req objects in cpufreq policy so they all
     are allocated in one go along with the policy to simplify lifetime
     rules and avoid error handling issues (Viresh Kumar)

   - Use DMI max speed when CPPC is unavailable in the acpi-cpufreq
     scaling driver (Henry Tseng)

   - Switch policy_is_shared() in cpufreq to using cpumask_nth() instead
     of cpumask_weight() because the former is more efficient (Yury
     Norov)

   - Use sysfs_emit() in sysfs show functions for cpufreq governor
     attributes (Thorsten Blum)

   - Update intel_pstate to stop returning an error when "off" is
     written to its status sysfs attribute while the driver is already
     off (Fabio De Francesco)

   - Include current frequency in the debug message printed by
     __cpufreq_driver_target() (Pengjie Zhang)

   - Refine stopped tick handling in the menu cpuidle governor and
     rearrange stopped tick handling in the teo cpuidle governor (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Add Panther Lake C-states table to the intel_idle driver (Artem
     Bityutskiy)

   - Clean up dead dependencies on CPU_IDLE in Kconfig (Julian Braha)

   - Simplify cpuidle_register_device() with guard() (Huisong Li)

   - Use performance level if available to distinguish between rates in
     OPP debugfs (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Fix scoped_guard in dev_pm_opp_xlate_required_opp() (Viresh Kumar)

   - Return -ENODATA if the snapshot image is not loaded (Alberto
     Garcia)

   - Remove inclusion of crypto/hash.h from hibernate_64.c on x86 (Eric
     Biggers)

   - Clean up and rearrange the intel_rapl power capping driver to make
     the respective interface drivers (TPMI, MSR, and MMOI) hold their
     own settings and primitives and consolidate PL4 and PMU support
     flags into rapl_defaults (Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan)

   - Correct kernel-doc function parameter names in the power capping
     core code (Randy Dunlap)

   - Remove unneeded casting for HZ_PER_KHZ in devfreq (Andy Shevchenko)

   - Use _visible attribute to replace create/remove_sysfs_files() in
     devfreq (Pengjie Zhang)

   - Add Tegra114 support to activity monitor device in tegra30-devfreq
     as a preparation to upcoming EMC controller support (Svyatoslav
     Ryhel)

   - Fix mistakes in cpupower man pages, add the boost and epp options
     to the cpupower-frequency-info man page, and add the perf-bias
     option to the cpupower-info man page (Roberto Ricci)

   - Remove unnecessary extern declarations from getopt.h in arguments
     parsing functions in cpufreq-set, cpuidle-info, cpuidle-set,
     cpupower-info, and cpupower-set utilities (Kaushlendra Kumar)"

kick_cpus_irq_workfn() warns when scx_kick_syncs is NULL, but this can
legitimately happen when a BPF timer or other kick source races with
free_kick_syncs() during scheduler disable. Drop the pr_warn_once() and
add a comment explaining the race.

<title>sched_ext: Warn on task-based SCX op recursion</title>

<id>e719e17d99aaf3922dbc15ae3ac3bb62fac32bad</id>
<content type='text'>
The kf_tasks[] design assumes task-based SCX ops don't nest - if they
did, kf_tasks[0] would get clobbered. The old scx_kf_allow() WARN_ONCE
caught invalid nesting via kf_mask, but that machinery is gone now.

Add a WARN_ON_ONCE(current-&gt;scx.kf_tasks[0]) at the top of each
SCX_CALL_OP_TASK*() macro. Checking kf_tasks[0] alone is sufficient: all
three variants (SCX_CALL_OP_TASK, SCX_CALL_OP_TASK_RET,
SCX_CALL_OP_2TASKS_RET) write to kf_tasks[0], so a non-NULL value at
entry to any of the three means re-entry from somewhere in the family.

The "kf_allowed" framing on this helper comes from the old runtime
scx_kf_allowed() gate, which has been removed. Rename it to describe what it
actually does in the new model.

Pure rename, no functional change.
