trace_iterator_increment() is only called from trace_find_next_entry_inc().
It's a small enough function that really doesn't need to be separated.
Move the code from trace_iterator_increment() into
trace_find_next_entry_inc() and remove trace_iterator_increment().

This makes the resize path use the helper intended for array allocations

The synthetic field helpers build a prefixed synthetic variable name and
a generated hist command in fixed MAX_FILTER_STR_VAL buffers. The
current code appends those strings with raw strcat(), so long key lists,
field names, or saved filters can run past the end of the staging
buffers.
Build both strings with seq_buf and propagate -E2BIG if either the
synthetic variable name or the generated command exceeds
MAX_FILTER_STR_VAL. This keeps the existing tracing-side limit while
using the helper intended for bounded command construction.

Pull ring-buffer fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix reporting MISSED EVENTS in trace iterator
When the "trace" file is read with tracing enabled, if the writer
were to pass the iterator reader, it resets, sets a "missed_events"
flag and continues. The tracing output checks for missed events and
if there are some, it prints out "[LOST EVENTS]" to let the user know
events were dropped.
But the clearing of the missed_events happened when the tracing
system queried the ring buffer iterator about missed events. This was
premature as the ring buffer is per CPU, and the tracing code reads
all the CPU buffers and checks for missed events when it is read. If
the CPU iterator that had missed events isn't printed next, the
output for the LOST EVENTS is lost.
Clear the missed_events flag when the iterator moves to the next
event and not when the missed_events flag is queried. Also clear it
on reset.
- Flush and stop the persistent ring buffer on panic
On panic the persistent ring buffer is used to debug what caused the
panic. But on some architectures, it requires flushing the memory
from cache, otherwise, the ring buffer persistent memory may not have
the last events and this could also cause the ring buffer to be
corrupted on the next boot.
- Fix nr_subbufs initialization in simple_ring_buffer_init_mm
The remote simple ring buffer meta data nr_subbufs is initialized too
early and gets cleared later on, making it zero and not reflect the
actual number of sub-buffers.
- Fix unload_page for simple_ring_buffer init rollback
On error, the pages loaded need to be unloaded. To unload a page it
is expected that: page = load_page(va); -> unload_page(page). But the
code was doing: unload_page(va) and not unload_page(page).
- Create output file from cmd_check_undefined
The check for undefined symbols checks if the file *.o.checked exists
and if so it skips doing the work. But the *.o.checked file never was
created making every build do the work even when it was already done
previously.

ops_dequeue() can race with finish_dispatch() and spuriously trigger the
"queued task must be in BPF scheduler's custody" warning.
ops_dequeue() snapshots p->scx.ops_state via atomic_long_read_acquire()
and then, in the SCX_OPSS_QUEUED arm, asserts that SCX_TASK_IN_CUSTODY
is set. The two reads are not atomic w.r.t. a concurrent
finish_dispatch() running on another CPU:
CPU 1 CPU 2
===== =====
dequeue_task_scx()
ops_dequeue()
opss = read_acquire(ops_state)
= SCX_OPSS_QUEUED
finish_dispatch()
cmpxchg ops_state:
SCX_OPSS_QUEUED -> SCX_OPSS_DISPATCHING [succeeds]
dispatch_enqueue(SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL,
SCX_ENQ_CLEAR_OPSS)
call_task_dequeue()
p->scx.flags &= ~SCX_TASK_IN_CUSTODY
WARN_ON_ONCE(!(p->scx.flags &
SCX_TASK_IN_CUSTODY))
/* opss is stale: QUEUED,
* but task already claimed */
set_release(ops_state, SCX_OPSS_NONE)
The race has been observed via two distinct call chains: the most common
goes through sched_setaffinity(), a rarer variant through
sched_change_begin().
For SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL / SCX_DSQ_BYPASS, dispatch_enqueue() clears
SCX_TASK_IN_CUSTODY before clearing ops_state to SCX_OPSS_NONE
(intentional, to avoid concurrent non-atomic RMW of p->scx.flags against
ops_dequeue()). The window between those two writes is exactly what
ops_dequeue() observes as "QUEUED without custody".
The observed state is not actually inconsistent, it just means CPU 1 has
already claimed the task and the QUEUED value held by CPU 2 is stale.
Re-read ops_state in that case; the next read is guaranteed to return
SCX_OPSS_DISPATCHING or SCX_OPSS_NONE, both of which exit the switch
cleanly. The retry is bounded: once IN_CUSTODY is cleared, ops_state has
already advanced past QUEUED for this dispatch cycle, and a fresh QUEUED
would require re-enqueue under p's rq lock, which CPU 2 holds.
Changes in v2:
- Use READ_ONCE() for p->scx.flags to ensure fresh reads and prevent
compiler reordering in the lockless path
- Add cpu_relax() to reduce power consumption and improve performance
during the spin-wait
- Use unlikely() to optimize branch prediction for the common case
- Expand the in-code comment to document the race condition and
bounded retry guarantee

nr_subbufs in the ring buffer metadata is always initialized to zero
because it is assigned from cpu_buffer->nr_pages before the page
initialization loop has run. While nr_subbufs is not currently read
by the kernel, it should reflect the actual buffer geometry in the
meta page for correctness.
Move the assignment after the page loop so that cpu_buffer->nr_pages
holds the final count.

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.
To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

When tracing is active while reading the trace file, if the iterator
reading the buffer detects that the writer has passed the iterator head,
it will reset and set a "missed events" flag. This flag is passed to the
output processing to show the user that events were missed:
CPU:4 [LOST EVENTS]
The problem is that the flag is reset after it is checked in
ring_buffer_iter_dropped(). But the "trace" file iterates over all the CPU
ring buffers and it will check if they are dropped when figuring out which
buffer to print next. This prematurely clears the missed_events flag if
the CPU buffer with the missed events is not the one that is printed next.
On the iteration where the CPU buffer with the missed events is printed,
the check if it had missed events would return false and the output does
not show that events were missed.
Do not reset the missed_events flag when checking if there were missed
events, but instead clear it when moving the iterator head to the next
event.

Add three kfuncs for BPF linked list queries:
- bpf_list_is_first(head, node): true if node is the first in the list.
- bpf_list_is_last(head, node): true if node is the last in the list.
- bpf_list_empty(head): true if the list has no entries.
Currently, without these kfuncs, to implement the above functionality
it is necessary to first call bpf_list_pop_front/back to retrieve the
first or last node before checking whether the passed-in node was the
first or last one. After the check, the node had to be pushed back into
the list using bpf_list_push_front/back, which was very inefficient.
Now, with the bpf_list_is_first/last/empty kfuncs, we can directly
check whether a node is the first, last, or whether the list is empty,
without having to first retrieve the node.

KF_ARG_PTR_TO_LIST_NODE normally requires an owning reference
(PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC with ref_obj_id). Introduce the
__nonown_allowed annotation on selected list-node arguments so
non-owning references with ref_obj_id==0 are accepted as well.
This patch only adds the generic verifier support and documents the

/del(), and bpf_list_is_first/last(), allowing bpf_list_front/back()
results to be used as the insertion point, deletion target, or query

Verifier keeps existing owning-ref checks by default; only arguments

The issue only becomes exposed once bpf_list_del() is available: callers
can pass an arbitrary bpf_list_head and bpf_list_node pair, including
nodes that are not actually linked to the supplied head, or nodes that
outlive their original head after refcount-based retention. This was
not practically reachable for callers restricted to pop-style helpers
alone; bpf_list_del() widens the API surface.
A failure mode appears when bpf_list_head_free() runs while a program
still holds an independent refcount on a node (for example via
bpf_refcount_acquire()). The list head value embedded in map memory can
go away while the node object survives. If node->owner is left pointing
at the old head address until drop completes, that pointer becomes stale.
If a new bpf_list_head is later allocated at the same address and the
stale node is passed to bpf_list_del(), the owner comparison can succeed
even though the node is not really linked to the new head, and
list_del_init() will follow bogus next/prev pointers with the risk of
memory corruption.
When draining a bpf_list_head, mark each node owner with BPF_PTR_POISON
under the map spinlock while moving it to a private drain list, then
list_del_init() the node and clear owner to NULL before calling
__bpf_obj_drop_impl(). Concurrent readers therefore never observe a
node that appears linked to a head while its list_head is inconsistent,
and surviving refcounted nodes never retain a stale non-NULL owner.

Sub-sched cap code and other upcoming consumers need bulk cmask ops, both
mutating (and/or/copy/andnot) and predicate (subset/intersects/empty).
cmask_walk_op2() walks the intersection of two ranges word by word;
cmask_walk_op1() walks one range. Both are __always_inline and dispatched on
a compile-time-constant op enum, so each public entry collapses to a
specialized loop with the inner switch reduced to one arm.
Two-cmask ops only touch bits in the intersection of the two ranges; bits
outside are left unchanged. scx_cmask_or_racy() and scx_cmask_copy_racy()
mirror the locking forms but read @src word-by-word through data_race();
callers handle ordering with concurrent writers themselves.

scx_cmask carries @base and @nr_cids but not the bits[] allocation size, so
helpers reshaping the active range have no way to check it fits and later
kfuncs taking caller-provided storage can't validate it.
Add @alloc_words (u64 word count) annotated with __counted_by, and split the
bit-range API into three helpers:
- SCX_CMASK_DEFINE() / __SCX_CMASK_DEFINE() define an on-stack cmask, the
latter taking an explicit capacity for oversized storage.
SCX_CMASK_DEFINE_SHARD() is a thin wrapper that always reserves
SCX_CID_SHARD_MAX_CPUS bits of storage.
- scx_cmask_init() / __scx_cmask_init() initialize a cmask, with the same
tight-vs-explicit split.
- scx_cmask_reframe() reshapes the active range without resizing storage.
The BPF mirror (cmask_init / __cmask_init / cmask_reframe) gets the same
shape.
Add scx_cmask_clear() and scx_cmask_fill() to zero and set the
active-range bits respectively. scx_cpumask_to_cmask() uses
scx_cmask_clear(); scx_cmask_init() would otherwise re-write @alloc_words
on every call.
A later patch uses @alloc_words in scx_cmask_ref_shard() to refuse output
storage that can't hold the requested shard.

cmasks). Add nr_cids/alloc_cids check in BPF __cmask_init().

wakeup time, unless we're racing with a change to the threshold), but it
may have at least contributed -- and this is possible with THREAD_CONTEXT
as well.
In any case, it helps with writing reliable rtla tests if we always get
a stack trace on a threshold event.

Certain drivers release resources (pinned pages, etc.) into system
memory during the prepare freeze PM op, making them swappable.
Currently, hibernate_preallocate_memory() is called before prepare
freeze, so those drivers have no opportunity to release resources
first. If a driver is holding a large amount of unswappable system
RAM, this can cause hibernate_preallocate_memory() to fail.
Move the call to hibernate_preallocate_memory() after prepare freeze.
According to the documentation for the prepare callback, devices should
be left in a usable state, so storage drivers should still be able to
service I/O requests. This allows drivers to release unswappable
resources prior to preallocation, so they can be swapped out through
hibernate_preallocate_memory()'s reclaim path.
Also remove shrink_shmem_memory() since hibernate_preallocate_memory()
will have reclaimed enough memory for the hibernation image.

hist_field_name() returns "" everywhere except the fully-qualified
VAR_REF/EXPR case, where snprintf() truncation returns NULL early
and bypasses the bottom NULL->"" guard. Callers don't expect NULL:
strcat(expr, hist_field_name(field, 0)) at trace_events_hist.c:1758
and the strcmp() in the sort-key match loop at :4804 both deref it.
system and event_name are bounded by MAX_EVENT_NAME_LEN, but the
field name on a VAR_REF is kstrdup'd from a histogram variable
name parsed out of the trigger string and has no length cap, so
a long enough var name in a fully qualified reference can reach
the truncation path.
Keep the length check but leave field_name as "" on overflow.

Commit 36df6e3dbd7e ("cgroup: make css_rstat_updated nmi safe") used
this_cpu_cmpxchg() for the lockless insertion, and therefore required
both ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG and ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS in
the NMI guard: on archs without the latter, this_cpu_cmpxchg() falls
back to "local_irq_save() + plain cmpxchg", and local_irq_save()
cannot mask NMIs.
Commit 3309b63a2281 ("cgroup: rstat: use LOCK CMPXCHG in
css_rstat_updated") later replaced this_cpu_cmpxchg() with plain
try_cmpxchg() to fix cross-CPU lockless-list corruption, but left the
NMI guard untouched. After that switch, css_rstat_updated() no longer
performs any this_cpu_*() RMW operations and only relies on the arch
having NMI-safe cmpxchg, so ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS is no
longer required in the guard.
Relax the guard accordingly so that archs which have HAVE_NMI and
ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG but not ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS
(e.g. sparc, powerpc on PPC64/BOOK3S) can benefit from the existing
CONFIG_MEMCG_NMI_SAFETY_REQUIRES_ATOMIC path. Without this, the css
is never queued in NMI on those archs, and the atomics staged by
account_{slab,kmem}_nmi_safe() are not drained by flush_nmi_stats().

Recent optimizations of sd->shared assignment moved to allocating a
single instance of per-CPU sched_domain_shared objects per s_data.
Recent optimizations to select_idle_capacity() moved the sd->shared
assignments to "sd_asym" domain when ASYM_CPUCAPACITY is detected but
cache-aware scheduling mandates the presence of "sd_llc_shared" to
compute and cache per-LLC statistics.
Use an "alloc_flags" union in sched_domain_shared to claim a
sched_domain_shared object per sched_domain. Allocation starts searching
for an available / matching sched_domain_shared instance from the first
CPU of sched_domain_span(sd) (sd can be sd_llc, or sd_asym). If the
shared object is claimed by another domain, the instance corresponding
to next CPU in the domain span is explored until a matching / available
instance is found.
In case of a single CPU in sched_domain_span(), the domain will be
degenerated and a temporary overlap of ->shared objects across different
domains is acceptable.
"alloc_flags" forms a union with "nr_idle_scan" and the stale flags are
left as is when the sd->shared is published. The expectation is for the
first load balancing instance to correct the value just like the current
behavior, except the initial value is no longer 0.

RT migration is done aggressively. When a CPU schedules out a high
priority RT task for a lower priority task, it will look to see if there's
any RT tasks that are waiting to run on another CPU that is of higher
priority than the task this CPU is about to run. If it finds one, it will
pull that task over to the CPU and allow it to run there instead.
Normally, this pulling is done by looking at the RT overloaded mask (rto)
which contains all the CPUs in the scheduler domain with RT tasks that are
waiting to run due to a higher priority RT task currently running on their
CPU. The CPU that is about to schedule a lower priority task will grab the
rq lock of the overloaded CPU and move the RT task from that CPU's runqueue
to the local one and schedule the higher priority RT task.
This caused issues when a lot of CPUs would schedule a lower priority task
at the same time. They would all try to grab the same runqueue lock of
the CPU with the overloaded RT tasks. Only the first CPU that got in will
get that task. All the others would wait until they got the runqueue lock
and see there's nothing to pull and do nothing. On systems with lots of
CPUs, this caused a large latency (up to 500us) which is beyond what
PREEMPT_RT is to allow.
The solution to that was to create an RT_PUSH_IPI logic. When any CPU
wanted to pull a task, instead of grabbing the runqueue lock of the
overloaded CPU, it would start by sending an IPI to the overloaded CPU,
and that IPI handler would have the CPU with the waiting RT task do a push
instead. Then that handler would send an IPI to the next CPU with
overloaded RT tasks, and so on. Note, after the first CPU starts this
process, if another CPU wanted to do a pull, it would see that the process
has already begun and would only increment a counter to have the IPIs
continue again.
The RT_PUSH_IPI solved the latency problem with PREEMPT_RT but could cause
a new issue with non PREEMPT_RT. Namely, softirqs run in a threaded
context on PREEMPT_RT but they can run in an interrupt context in non-RT.
If an IPI lands on a CPU that has just woken up multiple RT tasks and the
current CPU is running a non RT or a low priority RT task, instead of
doing a push, it would simply do a schedule on that CPU. But if a softirq
was also executing on this CPU, the schedule would need to wait until the
softirq finished. Until then, the CPU would still be considered overloaded
as there are RT tasks still waiting to run on it.
A live lock occurred on a workload that was doing heavy networking traffic
on a large machine where the softirqs would run 500us out of 750us. And it
would also be waking up RT tasks, causing the RT pull logic to be
constantly executed.
When a softirq triggered on a CPU with RT tasks queued but not running
yet, and the other CPUs would see this CPU as being overloaded, they would
send an IPI over to it. The CPU would notice that the waiting RT tasks are
of higher priority than the currently running task and simply schedule
that CPU instead. But because the softirq was executing, before it could
schedule, it would receive another IPI to do the same. The amount of IPIs
would slow down the currently running softirq so much that before it could
return back to task context, it would execute another softirq never
allowing the CPU to schedule. This live locked that CPU.
As RT_PUSH_IPI was created to help PREEMPT_RT, make it default off if
PREEMPT_RT is not enabled.

Add to select_idle_capacity() the same SIS_UTIL-controlled idle-scan
mechanism, already used by select_idle_cpu(): when sched_feat(SIS_UTIL)
is enabled and the LLC domain has sched_domain_shared data, derive the
per-attempt scan limit from sd->shared->nr_idle_scan.
That bounds the walk on large LLCs: once nr_idle_scan is exhausted,
return the best CPU seen so far. The early exit is gated on
!has_idle_core so an active idle-core search (SMT with idle cores
reported by test_idle_cores()) isn't cut short before it gets a chance
to find one.

capacity_of(dst_cpu) can overstate available compute if the SMT sibling is

On systems with asymmetric CPU capacity (e.g., ACPI/CPPC reporting
different per-core frequencies), the wakeup path uses
select_idle_capacity() and prioritizes idle CPUs with higher capacity
for better task placement. However, when those CPUs belong to SMT cores,
their effective capacity can be much lower than the nominal capacity
when the sibling thread is busy: SMT siblings compete for shared
resources, so a "high capacity" CPU that is idle but whose sibling is
busy does not deliver its full capacity. This effective capacity
reduction cannot be modeled by the static capacity value alone.
Introduce SMT awareness in the asym-capacity idle selection policy: when
SMT is active, always prefer fully-idle SMT cores over partially-idle
ones.
Prioritizing fully-idle SMT cores yields better task placement because
the effective capacity of partially-idle SMT cores is reduced; always
preferring them when available leads to more accurate capacity usage on
task wakeup.
On an SMT system with asymmetric CPU capacities (NVIDIA Vera Rubin),
SMT-aware idle selection has been shown to improve throughput by around
15-18% over NO_ASYM mainline and by around 60% over ASYM mainline, for
CPU-bound workloads (NVBLAS) running an amount of tasks equal to the
amount of SMT cores.

On asymmetric CPU capacity systems, the wakeup path uses
select_idle_capacity(), which scans the span of sd_asym_cpucapacity
rather than sd_llc.
The has_idle_cores hint however lives on sd_llc->shared, so the
wakeup-time read of has_idle_cores operates on an LLC-scoped blob while
the actual scan/decision spans the asym domain; nr_busy_cpus also lives
in the same shared sched_domain data, but it's never used in the asym
CPU capacity scenario.
Therefore, move the sched_domain_shared object to sd_asym_cpucapacity
whenever the CPU has a SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY_FULL ancestor and that
ancestor is non-overlapping (i.e., not built from SD_NUMA). In that case
the scope of has_idle_cores matches the scope of the wakeup scan.
Fall back to attaching the shared object to sd_llc in three cases:
1) plain symmetric systems (no SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY_FULL anywhere);
2) CPUs in an exclusive cpuset that carves out a symmetric capacity
island: has_asym is system-wide but those CPUs have no
SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY_FULL ancestor in their hierarchy and follow
the symmetric LLC path in select_idle_sibling();
3) exotic topologies where SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY_FULL lands on an
SD_NUMA-built domain. init_sched_domain_shared() keys the shared
blob off cpumask_first(span), which on overlapping NUMA domains
would alias unrelated spans onto the same blob. Keep the shared
object on the LLC there; select_idle_capacity() gracefully skips
the has_idle_cores preference when sd->shared is NULL.
While at it, also rename the per-CPU sd_llc_shared to sd_balance_shared,
as it is no longer strictly tied to the LLC.

nohz_balancer_kick() is reached from sched_balance_trigger(), which is
called from sched_tick(). sched_tick() runs with IRQs disabled, so the
additional rcu_read_lock/unlock() used around sched_domain accesses in
this path is redundant. Rely on the existing IRQ-disabled context (and
the rcu_dereference_all() checking) instead.
The same applies to set_cpu_sd_state_idle(), called from the idle entry
path with IRQs disabled, and to set_cpu_sd_state_busy(), reachable via
nohz_balance_exit_idle() from two contexts: nohz_balancer_kick() (IRQs
disabled, as above) and sched_cpu_deactivate() (the CPUHP_AP_ACTIVE
teardown, which runs under cpus_write_lock(), so it cannot race with
sched-domain rebuilds). In both cases the rcu_dereference_all()
validation is sufficient.
No functional change intended.

Now, that cpu_smt_mask is defined as cpumask_of(cpu) for
CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=n, it is possible to get rid of the ifdeffery.
Effectively,
- This makes sched_smt_present is defined always
- cpumask_weight(cpumask_of(cpu)) == 1. So sched_smt_present_inc/dec
will never enable the sched_smt_present. Which is expected.
- Paths that were compile-time eliminated become runtime guarded
using static keys.
- Defines set_idle_cores, test_idle_cores, etc which could likely benefit
the CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=n systems to use the same optimizations within the
LLC at wakeups.
- This will expose sched_smt_present symbol for CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=n.
Likely not a concern.
- There is a bloat of code CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=n. (NR_CPUS=2048)
add/remove: 24/18 grow/shrink: 26/28 up/down: 6396/-3188 (3208)

- No code bloat for CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=y, which is expected.
- Add comments around stop_core_cpuslocked on why ifdefs are not
removed.
- This leaves the remaining uses of CONFIG_SCHED_SMT mainly for
topology building bits which has a policy based decision.

Commit 77baa5bafcbe ("sched/cputime: Fix mul_u64_u64_div_u64() precision
for cputime") added a clamp in cputime_adjust():
if (unlikely(stime > rtime))
stime = rtime;
The justification was that mul_u64_u64_div_u64() could over-approximate
on some architectures (notably arm64 and the old 32-bit fallback), so
the mathematically impossible stime > rtime was nevertheless reachable
and would underflow utime = rtime - stime.
That premise no longer holds. Commit b29a62d87cc0 ("mul_u64_u64_div_u64:
make it precise always") replaced the fallback implementation with an
exact 128-bit long division, and the x86_64 inline asm already produced
exact results. The helper now returns the mathematically correct
floor(a*b/d) on every architecture, so stime <= rtime is guaranteed by
stime <= stime + utime and the clamp is dead code.
Remove it along with its stale comment.
