2026-01-27perf tp_pmu: Address const-correctness errors in recent glibcsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
To avoid having more variables, just cast the const variable searched to non-const since the result will not be modified, its only later that that variable will be used to modify something, but then its non-const memory being modified, so using a cast is the cheapest thing here.

2026-01-26mm/rmap: separate out fork-only logic on anon_vma_clone()Lorenzo Stoakes
Specify which operation is being performed to anon_vma_clone(), which allows us to do checks specific to each operation type, as well as to separate out and make clear that the anon_vma reuse logic is absolutely specific to fork only. This opens the door to further refactorings and refinements later as we have more information to work with.

2026-01-26mm/rmap: remove anon_vma_merge() functionLorenzo Stoakes
This function is confusing, we already have the concept of anon_vma merge to adjacent VMA's anon_vma's to increase probability of anon_vma compatibility and therefore VMA merge (see is_mergeable_anon_vma() etc.), as well as anon_vma reuse, along side the usual VMA merge logic. We can remove the anon_vma check as it is redundant - a merge would not have been permitted with removal if the anon_vma's were not the same (and in the case of an unfaulted/faulted merge, we would have already set the unfaulted VMA's anon_vma to vp->remove->anon_vma in dup_anon_vma()). Avoid overloading this term when we're very simply unlinking anon_vma state from a removed VMA upon merge.

2026-01-26selftests: net: fix wrong boolean evaluation in __exit__Gal Pressman
The __exit__ method receives ex_type as the exception class when an exception occurs. The previous code used implicit boolean evaluation: terminate = self.terminate or (self._exit_wait and ex_type) ^^^^^^^^^^^ In Python, the and operator can be used with non-boolean values, but it does not always return a boolean result. This is probably not what we want, because 'self._exit_wait and ex_type' could return the actual ex_type value (the exception class) rather than a boolean True when an exception occurs. Use explicit `ex_type is not None` check to properly evaluate whether an exception occurred, returning a boolean result.

The new test, similarly to the former script, checks that valid data appears both for textual output and json output, as well as for both data not used at all and used data.

2026-01-26perf session: Print all machines in session dumpHrishikesh Suresh
perf_session__fprintf() prints only the host. This has been changed to print details of host and all guests, by traversing through the RB-Tree. These are visible when using high verbosity (-vvvv) in KVM environments, during perf report dumps. Testing: - Test 1: Record the local machine and guest VM using 'perf kvm record' and generate the report using 'perf kvm report -vvvv -D'. The dump should show the threads and other details related to local and guest machine. - 1 Ubuntu VM running on Fedora host - VM is running a noisy program => $ dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null - On host run => $ sudo ./perf kvm --guestvmlinux=/tmp/shared/guest_vmlinux \ --guestkallsyms=/tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \ --guestmodules=/tmp/shared/guest_modules \ record -a -g -o perf.data.guest and exit after a few seconds. [ perf record: Woken up 9 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.150 MB perf.data.guest \ (29311 samples) ] - Generate dump => $ sudo ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \ report -vvvv -D -i perf.data.guest > output.txt - Check for threads associated with guest machine. $ grep "Thread 0" output.txt Thread 0 swapper Thread 0 [guest/0] PASS - Test 2: Record the local machine and guest VM using 'perf kvm record' and generate the report using 'perf kvm report'. The functions running on guest VM should be seen in the report. - Same setup as Test 1 but the test looks at the performance profile, to check if the function names are visible. - Peek into profile using => $ sudo ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/shared/guest_kallsyms \ report -i perf.data.guest - Samples: 29K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 28711693142 Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol 35.69% 35.69% :5820 [guest.kernel.kallsyms] [g] chacha_permute 11.56% 11.56% :5820 [guest.kernel.kallsyms] [g] entry_SYSRETQ_unsXXX 11.12% 11.12% :5820 [guest.kernel.kallsyms] [g] syscall_return_viXXX 7.36% 7.36% :5820 [guest.kernel.kallsyms] [g] entry_SYSCALL_64_XXX 6.07% 6.07% :5820 [guest.kernel.kallsyms] [g] chacha_block_generic 5.40% 5.40% :5820 [guest.kernel.kallsyms] [g] _copy_to_iter .... PASS - Test 3: Record the local and 2 guest VMs using 'perf kvm record' and generate the report using 'perf kvm report -vvvv -D'. The dump should show the threads and other details related to local and guest machines. - 1 Ubuntu and 1 Alpine VMs running on Fedora host. - Find PIDs of qemu instances and use them during record and report $ pgrep qemu 5816 25098 - Record the activity => $ sudo ./perf kvm record -p 5816,25098 -a -g -o perf.data.guests Warning: PID/TID switch overriding SYSTEM [ perf record: Woken up 325927 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 3.692 MB perf.data.guests \ (57389 samples) ] - Generate dump => $ sudo ./perf kvm report -vvvv -D -i perf.data.guests > output.txt - Check if the threads related to the local machine and guest VMs are present => $ grep "Thread 0" output.txt Thread 0 swapper Thread 0 [guest/0] NOTE: Threads from Ubuntu and Alpine VMs are bundled together and appear as one guest machine. Looking into output.txt => Threads: 6 Thread 0 [guest/0] Thread 5816 :5816 Thread 25098 :25098 Thread 5819 :5819 Thread 5820 :5820 Thread 25103 :25103 To conclude, information is collected for both VMs and not listed as two different guest machines. PASS - Test 4: Check if any guest-related information is printed in perf annotate. This test is included because the command calls perf_session__fprintf() in its code path when using -vvvv option. This could be explained by inability / lack of options for 'perf annotate' to look into guest VM from host machine, due to no option to specify the guest's kallsyms or modules. A similar explanation for 'perf mem' could be used, as perf_session__fprintf() is also present in its code path. - Run annotate => $ sudo ./perf annotate -i perf.data.guest -vvvv > output.txt - Check for threads from local machine or guest VM => $ grep "Thread 0" output.txt Thread 0 swapper Threads from local machine are found while threads from guest VM are not found. It is possibly because of a lack of a guest kallsyms option for DSO matching in perf annotate.

2026-01-26tools headers: Go back to include asm-generic/unistd.h for arm64Leo Yan
The header unistd.h is included under Arm64's uAPI folder (see tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/), but it does not include its dependent header unistd_64.h. The intention is for unistd_64.h to be generated dynamically using scripts/Makefile.asm-headers. However, this dynamic approach causes problems because the header is not available early enough, even though it is widely included throughout tools. Using the perf build as an example: 1) Feature detection: Perf first runs feature tests. The BPF feature program test-bpf.c includes unistd.h. Since unistd_64.h has not been generated yet, the program fails to build, and the BPF feature ends up being disabled. 2) libperf build: The libperf Makefile later generates unistd_64.h on the fly, so libperf itself builds successfully. 3) Final perf build: Although the perf binary can build successfully using the generated header, we never get a chance to build BPF skeleton programs, because BPF support was already disabled earlier. Restore to include asm-generic/unistd.h for fixing the issue. This aligns with most architectures (x86 is a special case that keeps unistd_32.h/unistd_64.h for its particular syscall numbers) and ensures the header is available from the start.

2026-01-26selftests/bpf: Harden cpu flags test for lru_percpu_hash mapLeon Hwang
CI occasionally reports failures in the percpu_alloc/cpu_flag_lru_percpu_hash selftest, for example: First test_progs failure (test_progs_no_alu32-x86_64-llvm-21): #264/15 percpu_alloc/cpu_flag_lru_percpu_hash ... test_percpu_map_op_cpu_flag:FAIL:bpf_map_lookup_batch value on specified cpu unexpected bpf_map_lookup_batch value on specified cpu: actual 0 != expected 3735929054 The unexpected value indicates that an element was removed from the map. However, the test never calls delete_elem(), so the only possible cause is LRU eviction. This can happen when the current task migrates to another CPU: an update_elem() triggers eviction because there is no available LRU node on local freelist and global freelist. Harden the test against this behavior by provisioning sufficient spare elements. Set max_entries to 'nr_cpus * 2' and restrict the test to using the first nr_cpus entries, ensuring that updates do not spuriously trigger LRU eviction.

2026-01-26xdrgen: Add enum value validation to generated decodersChuck Lever
XDR enum decoders generated by xdrgen do not verify that incoming values are valid members of the enum. Incoming out-of-range values from malicious or buggy peers propagate through the system unchecked. Add validation logic to generated enum decoders using a switch statement that explicitly lists valid enumerator values. The compiler optimizes this to a simple range check when enum values are dense (contiguous), while correctly rejecting invalid values for sparse enums with gaps in their value ranges. The --no-enum-validation option on the source subcommand disables this validation when not needed. The minimum and maximum fields in _XdrEnum, which were previously unused placeholders for a range-based validation approach, have been removed since the switch-based validation handles both dense and sparse enums correctly. Because the new mechanism results in substantive changes to generated code, existing .x files are regenerated. Unrelated white space and semicolon changes in the generated code are due to recent commit 1c873a2fd110 ("xdrgen: Don't generate unnecessary semicolon") and commit 38c4df91242b ("xdrgen: Address some checkpatch whitespace complaints").

2026-01-26xdrgen: Emit a max_arg_sz macroChuck Lever
struct svc_service has a .vs_xdrsize field that is filled in by servers for each of their RPC programs. This field is supposed to contain the size of the largest procedure argument in the RPC program. This value is also sometimes used to size network transport buffers. Currently, server implementations must manually calculate and hard-code this value, which is error-prone and requires updates when procedure arguments change. Update xdrgen to determine which procedure argument structure is largest, and emit a macro with a well-known name that contains the size of that structure. Server code then uses this macro when initializing the .vs_xdrsize field. For NLM version 4, xdrgen now emits: #define NLM4_MAX_ARGS_SZ (NLM4_nlm4_lockargs_sz) Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
2026-01-26xdrgen: Extend error reporting to AST transformation phaseChuck Lever
Commit 277df18d7df9 ("xdrgen: Improve parse error reporting") added clean, compiler-style error messages for syntax errors detected during parsing. However, semantic errors discovered during AST transformation still produce verbose Python stack traces. When an XDR specification references an undefined type, the transformer raises a VisitError wrapping a KeyError. Before this change: Traceback (most recent call last): File ".../lark/visitors.py", line 124, in _call_userfunc return f(children) ... KeyError: 'fsh4_mode' ... lark.exceptions.VisitError: Error trying to process rule "basic": 'fsh4_mode' After this change: file.x:156:2: semantic error Undefined type 'fsh4_mode' fsh4_mode mode; ^ The new handle_transform_error() function extracts position information from the Lark tree node metadata and formats the error consistently with parse error messages.

2026-01-26xdrgen: Improve parse error reportingChuck Lever
The current verbose Lark exception output makes it difficult to quickly identify and fix syntax errors in XDR specifications. Users must wade through hundreds of lines of cascading errors to find the root cause. Replace this with concise, compiler-style error messages showing file, line, column, the unexpected token, and the source line with a caret pointing to the error location. Before: Unexpected token Token('__ANON_1', '+1') at line 14, column 35. Expected one of: * SEMICOLON Previous tokens: [Token('__ANON_0', 'LM_MAXSTRLEN')] [hundreds more cascading errors...] After: file.x:14:35: parse error Unexpected number '+1' const LM_MAXNAMELEN = LM_MAXSTRLEN+1; ^ The error handler now raises XdrParseError on the first error, preventing cascading messages that obscure the root cause.

2026-01-26xdrgen: improve error reporting for invalid void declarationsKhushal Chitturi
RFC 4506 defines void as a zero-length type that may appear only as union arms or as program argument/result types. It cannot be declared with an identifier, so constructs like "typedef void temp;" are not valid XDR. Previously, xdrgen raised a NotImplementedError when it encountered a void declaration in a typedef. Which was misleading, as the problem is an invalid RPC specification rather than missing functionality in xdrgen. This patch replaces the NotImplementedError for _XdrVoid in typedef handling with a clearer ValueError that specifies incorrect use of void in the XDR input, making it clear that the issue lies in the RPC specification being parsed.

2026-01-25selftests/bpf: Add tests for execution context helpersChangwoo Min
Add a new selftest suite `exe_ctx` to verify the accuracy of the bpf_in_task(), bpf_in_hardirq(), and bpf_in_serving_softirq() helpers introduced in bpf_experimental.h. Testing these execution contexts deterministically requires crossing context boundaries within a single CPU. To achieve this, the test implements a "Trigger-Observer" pattern using bpf_testmod: 1. Trigger: A BPF syscall program calls a new bpf_testmod kfunc bpf_kfunc_trigger_ctx_check(). 2. Task to HardIRQ: The kfunc uses irq_work_queue() to trigger a self-IPI on the local CPU. 3. HardIRQ to SoftIRQ: The irq_work handler calls a dummy function (observed by BPF fentry) and then schedules a tasklet to transition into SoftIRQ context. The user-space runner ensures determinism by pinning itself to CPU 0 before execution, forcing the entire interrupt chain to remain on a single core. Dummy noinline functions with compiler barriers are added to bpf_testmod.c to serve as stable attachment points for fentry programs. A retry loop is used in user-space to wait for the asynchronous SoftIRQ to complete. Note that testing on s390x is avoided because supporting those helpers purely in BPF on s390x is not possible at this point.

2026-01-25selftests/bpf: Introduce execution context detection helpersChangwoo Min
Introduce bpf_in_nmi(), bpf_in_hardirq(), bpf_in_serving_softirq(), and bpf_in_task() inline helpers in bpf_experimental.h. These allow BPF programs to query the current execution context with higher granularity than the existing bpf_in_interrupt() helper. While BPF programs can often infer their context from attachment points, subsystems like sched_ext may call the same BPF logic from multiple contexts (e.g., task-to-task wake-ups vs. interrupt-to-task wake-ups). These helpers provide a reliable way for logic to branch based on the current CPU execution state. Implementing these as BPF-native inline helpers wrapping get_preempt_count() allows the compiler and JIT to inline the logic. The implementation accounts for differences in preempt_count layout between standard and PREEMPT_RT kernels.
