2026-03-10perf cs-etm: Finish removal of ETM_OPT_*James Clark
These #defines have been removed from the kernel headers in favour of the string based PMU format attributes. Usages were previously removed from the recording side of cs-etm in Perf. Finish the removal by removing usages from the decode side too. It's a straight replacement of the old #defines with the new register bit definitions. Except cs_etm__setup_timeless_decoding() which wasn't looking at the saved metadata and was instead hard coding an access to 'attr.config'. This was vulnerable to the same issue of .config being moved to .config2 etc that the original removal of ETM_OPT_* tried to fix. So fix that too.

2026-03-10rtla: Simplify code by caching string lengthsWander Lairson Costa
Simplify trace_event_save_hist() and set_comm_cgroup() by computing string lengths once and storing them in local variables, rather than calling strlen() multiple times on the same unchanged strings. This makes the code clearer by eliminating redundant function calls and improving readability. In trace_event_save_hist(), the write loop previously called strlen() on the hist buffer twice per iteration for both the size calculation and loop condition. Store the length in hist_len before entering the loop. In set_comm_cgroup(), strlen() was called on cgroup_path up to three times in succession. Store the result in cg_path_len to use in both the offset calculation and size parameter for subsequent append operations. This simplification makes the code easier to read and maintain without changing program behavior.

2026-03-10rtla: Replace magic number with MAX_PATHWander Lairson Costa
The trace functions use a buffer to manipulate strings that will be written to tracefs files. These buffers are defined with a magic number of 1024, which is a common source of vulnerabilities. Replace the magic number 1024 with the MAX_PATH macro to make the code safer and more readable. While at it, replace other instances of the magic number with ARRAY_SIZE() when the buffer is locally defined.

2026-03-10rtla: Introduce common_threshold_handler() helperWander Lairson Costa
Several functions duplicate the logic for handling threshold actions. When a threshold is reached, these functions stop the trace, perform configured actions, and restart the trace if --on-threshold continue is set. Create common_threshold_handler() to centralize this shared logic and avoid code duplication. The function executes the configured threshold actions and restarts the necessary trace instances when appropriate. Also add should_continue_tracing() helper to encapsulate the check for whether tracing should continue after a threshold event, improving code readability at call sites. In timerlat_top_bpf_main_loop(), use common_params directly instead of casting through timerlat_params when only common fields are needed.

2026-03-10rtla/actions: Simplify argument parsingWander Lairson Costa
The actions_parse() function uses open-coded logic to extract arguments from a string. This includes manual length checks and strncmp() calls, which can be verbose and error-prone. To simplify and improve the robustness of argument parsing, introduce a new extract_arg() helper macro. This macro extracts the value from a "key=value" pair, making the code more concise and readable. Also, introduce STRING_LENGTH() and strncmp_static() macros to perform compile-time calculations of string lengths and safer string comparisons. Refactor actions_parse() to use these new helpers, resulting in cleaner and more maintainable code.

2026-03-10rtla: Use strdup() to simplify codeWander Lairson Costa
The actions_add_trace_output() and actions_add_shell() functions were using calloc() followed by strcpy() to allocate and copy a string. This can be simplified by using strdup(), which allocates memory and copies the string in a single step. Replace the calloc() and strcpy() calls with strdup(), making the code more concise and readable.

2026-03-10rtla: Exit on memory allocation failures during initializationWander Lairson Costa
Most memory allocations in rtla happen during early initialization before any resources are acquired that would require cleanup. In these cases, propagating allocation errors just adds complexity without any benefit. There's nothing to clean up, and the program must exit anyway. This patch introduces fatal allocation wrappers (calloc_fatal, reallocarray_fatal, strdup_fatal) that call fatal() on allocation failure. These wrappers simplify the code by eliminating unnecessary error propagation paths. The patch converts early allocations to use these wrappers in actions_init() and related action functions, osnoise_context_alloc() and osnoise_init_tool(), trace_instance_init() and trace event functions, and parameter structure allocations in main functions. This simplifies the code while maintaining the same behavior: immediate exit on allocation failure during initialization. Allocations that require cleanup, such as those in histogram allocation functions with goto cleanup paths, are left unchanged and continue to return errors.

fib6_nexthop() retrieves the link-local address for two interfaces used in the test. However, both lldummy and llv1 are obtained from dummy0. llv1 is expected to be retrieved from veth1, which is the interface used later in the test.

2026-03-09selftests/bpf: Move sleepable refcounted_kptr tests to syscallsViktor Malik
Now that sleepable programs are always enabled on syscalls, let refcounted_kptr tests use syscalls rather than bpf_testmod_test_read, which is not sleepable with error injection disabled. The tests just check that the verifier can handle usage of RCU locks in sleepable programs and never actually attach. So, the attachment target doesn't matter (as long as it is sleepable) and with syscalls, the tests pass on kernels with disabled error injection.

2026-03-09docs: kdoc_files: allows the caller to use a different xforms classMauro Carvalho Chehab
While the main goal for kernel-doc is to be used inside the Linux Kernel, other open source projects could benefit for it. That's currently the case of QEMU, which has a fork, mainly due to two reasons: - they need an extra C function transform rule; - they handle the html output a little bit different. Add an extra optional argument to make easier for the code to be shared, as, with that, QEMU can just create a new derivated class that will contain its specific rulesets, and just copy the remaining kernel-doc files as-is.

2026-03-09ktest: Add a --dry-run modeRicardo B. Marlière
When working on a ktest configuration, it is often useful to inspect the final option values after includes, defaults, per-test overrides, and variable expansion have been applied, without actually starting a test run. Add a --dry-run option that reads the configuration, prints the test preamble using resolved option values, and exits before opening LOG_FILE or executing any test logic. This is useful for debugging ktest configurations and for scripts that need to validate the final resolved settings without triggering side effects.

2026-03-09ktest: Run POST_KTEST hooks on failure and cancellationRicardo B. Marlière
PRE_KTEST can be useful for setting up the environment and POST_KTEST to tear it down, however POST_KTEST only runs on the normal end-of-run path. It is skipped when ktest exits through dodie() or cancel_test(). Final cleanup hooks are skipped. Factor the final hook execution into run_post_ktest(), call it from the normal exit path and from the early exit paths, and guard it so the hook runs at most once.

2026-03-09ktest: Add PRE_KTEST_DIE for PRE_KTEST failuresRicardo B. Marlière
PRE_KTEST runs before the first test, but its return status is currently ignored. A failing setup hook can leave the rest of the run executing in a partially initialized environment.

2026-03-09ktest: Stop dropping console output during power-cycle rebootRicardo B. Marlière
The POWER_CYCLE fallback added to reboot() flushes monitor output at the wrong time. In the untimed reboot path, flushing immediately after start_monitor() can consume the first output from the new boot before monitor() begins reading it. In the timed path, flushing after POWER_CYCLE can eat the "Linux version" banner or REBOOT_SUCCESS_LINE from the new kernel. That makes ktest miss the boot it is waiting for and can trigger an unnecessary second power cycle. Start the monitor before POWER_CYCLE so the reference counting stays balanced, but only flush when reboot() was asked to wait for a timed reboot. Perform that flush before issuing POWER_CYCLE so it drains stale output from the old kernel instead of consuming the next boot.

2026-03-09ktest: Run commands through list-form shell openRicardo B. Marlière
run_command() currently uses string-form open(): open(CMD, "$command 2>&1 |") That delegates parsing to the shell but also mixes the stderr redirection into the command string. Switch to list-form open() with an explicit sh -c wrapper so shell syntax errors are captured in the same output stream as command output. Otherwise, important errors can not be retrieved from the ktest LOG_FILE.

2026-03-09ktest: Honor empty per-test option overridesRicardo B. Marlière
A per-test override can clear an inherited default option by assigning an empty value, but __set_test_option() still used option_defined() to decide whether a per-test key existed. That turned an empty per-test assignment back into "fall back to the default", so tests still could not clear inherited settings. For example: DEFAULTS (...) LOG_FILE = /tmp/ktest-empty-override.log CLEAR_LOG = 1 ADD_CONFIG = /tmp/.config TEST_START TEST_TYPE = build BUILD_TYPE = nobuild ADD_CONFIG = This would run the test with ADD_CONFIG[1] = /tmp/.config Fix by checking whether the per-test key exists before falling back. If it does exist but is empty, treat it as unset for that test and stop the fallback chain there.

2026-03-09ktest: Treat undefined self-reference as emptyRicardo B. Marlière
Config variables are expanded when they are assigned. A first-time append such as: VAR := ${VAR} foo leaves the literal ${VAR} in the stored value because VAR has not been defined yet. Later expansions then carry the self-reference forward instead of behaving like an empty prefix. Drop an unescaped self-reference when the variable has no current value, and trim the outer whitespace left behind. Keep escaped \${VAR} references unchanged so literal text still works.

2026-03-09ktest: Resolve LOG_FILE in test option contextRicardo B. Marlière
LOG_FILE is expanded immediately after the config file is parsed with eval_option(..., -1). That uses the default context, not the same option resolution path used for tests. If LOG_FILE depends on options that are finalized per test, it can be resolved from stale values before the first test starts. Resolve LOG_FILE through set_test_option("LOG_FILE", 1) instead so it uses the same expansion rules as the rest of the test options.
