Add support for configuring swapping of MDI pairs (ABCD->DCBA) when the
property "enet-phy-pair-order" is specified.
Unfortunately, no documentation about this feature is available, but
this implementation still tries to avoid magic numbers and raw register
numbers where it seems clear what is going on.
As it is unknown whether the patching step can be safely reversed, only
enabling MDI swapping is fully supported. A value of "0" for the "enet-
phy-pair-order" property is not accepted if the PHY has already been
patched for MDI swapping (however, this should not occur in practice).
Some other Realtek PHYs also support similar mechanisms:
- RTL8221B-VB-CG allows to configure MDI swapping via the same register,
but does not need the additional patching step. However, it is unclear
whether a driver implementation for that PHY is necessary, as it is
known to support configuration via strapping pins (which is working
fine at least in Zyxel XGS1210-12 rev B1).
- The patching step seems to match the one for the integrated PHYs of
some Realtek PCIe/USB NICs (see for example the r8152 driver).
For now, only implement this for the RTL8226-CG PHY, where it is needed
for the switches Zyxel XGS1010-12 rev A1 and XGS1210-12 rev A1.

rxrpc: Better fix for DATA/RESPONSE decrypt vs splice()
Here are two patches containing better fixes for the in-place decryption of
DATA and RESPONSE packets that can corrupt pagecache spliced into UDP
packets and sent to an AF_RXRPC server [CVE-2026-43500], plus a patch to
precheck the length of rxgk-secured DATA packets.
Of the main patches, one patch fixes DATA decryption by having recvmsg
unconditionally extract the data into a flat bounce buffer and, if need be,
decrypt it there. It doesn't seem to cause a performance problem to do
this even on unencrypted packets; for encrypted packets it makes sure the
content is correctly aligned for crypto which seems to get a small
performance gain.
Further, it means that DATA packets are no longer copied in the I/O thread,
avoiding a slowdown of the protocol engine that runs there.
The other main patch fixes RESPONSE decryption by having the connection
event handler worker copy the data to a flat buffer and, again, decrypt it
there. This simplifies RESPONSE handling.
With these two fixes, the data content of the received sk_buff no longer
gets altered.

This improves the fix for CVE-2026-43500.
Fix the pagecache corruption from in-place decryption of a DATA packet
transmitted locally by splice() by getting rid of the packet sharing in the
I/O thread and unconditionally extracting the packet content into a bounce
buffer in which the buffer is decrypted. recvmsg() (or the kernel
equivalent) then copies the data from the bounce buffer to the destination
buffer. The sk_buff then remains unmodified.
This has an additional advantage in that the packet is then arranged in the
buffer with the correct alignment required for the crypto algorithms to
process directly. The performance of the crypto does seem to be a little
faster and, surprisingly, the unencrypted performance doesn't seem to
change much - possibly due to removing complexity from the I/O thread.
Yet another advantage is that the I/O thread doesn't have to copy packets
which would slow down packet distribution, ACK generation, etc..
The buffer belongs to the call and is allocated initially at 2K,
sufficiently large to hold a whole jumbo subpacket, but the buffer will be
increased in size if needed. However, to take this work, MSG_PEEK may
cause a later packet to be decrypted into the buffer, in which case the
earlier one will need re-decrypting for a subsequent recvmsg().
Note that rx_pkt_offset may legitimately see 0 as a valid offset now, so
switch to using USHRT_MAX to indicate an invalid offset.
Note also that I would generally prefer to replace the buffers of the
current sk_buff with a new kmalloc'd buffer of the right size, ditching the
old data and frags as this makes the handling of MSG_PEEK easier and
removes the re-decryption issue, but this looks like quite a complicated
thing to achieve. skb_morph() looks half way to what I want, but I don't
want to have to allocate a new sk_buff.

Recent commit changed the semantics from NOT_VALID to VALID.
I didn't realize that the flags are not stored atomically
with the entry in XArray. There's still a race of reader
observing a VALID mark for a slot, getting interrupted,
writer replacing the entry with a different one, reader
continuing, fetching the entry which is now a different
pointer than the pointer for which VALID was meant.
The biggest consequence of this is that we may see a UAF
since net_shaper_rollback() assumed that entries without
VALID can be freed without observing RCU.
Looks like the XArray marks are buying us nothing at this
point. Let's convert the code to an explicit valid field.
The smp_load_acquire() / smp_store_release() barriers are
marginally cleaner.

mlx5e_xfrm_add_state() handles acquire-flow temporary SAs by allocating
software state and skipping hardware offload setup.
That path jumps to the common success label before taking the eswitch mode
block. After tunnel-mode validation was moved earlier, the common success
label unconditionally calls mlx5_eswitch_unblock_mode(). For acquire SAs,
this decrements esw->offloads.num_block_mode without a matching increment.
Return directly after installing the acquire SA offload handle, so only the
paths that successfully called mlx5_eswitch_block_mode() call the matching
unblock.

udp: gso: Fix __udp_gso_segment() after GSO_PARTIAL UDP length change
This series fixes two issues introduced by commit b10b446ce7 ("udp:
gso: Use single MSS length in UDP header for GSO_PARTIAL"), which
switched __udp_gso_segment() to write the single MSS length into the UDP
header for GSO_PARTIAL skbs.
Patch 1 (from Alice) fixes the UDP checksum adjustment in
__udp_gso_segment().
The patch adjusts the checksum by the correct delta, and since msslen
and newlen become equivalent before the loop, drops one of the two
variables to simplify the code.
Patch 2 handles the case where the last segment of a GSO_PARTIAL skb is
itself a GSO skb. This happens when the original packet size is an exact
multiple of MSS, so the post-loop segment is not a remainder skb but a
full GSO chunk and must also carry the single MSS length in its UDP
header.

Following the cited commit, __udp_gso_segment() writes single MSS length
in the UDP header.
The cited patch doesn't account for the fact that the last segment could
be a GSO skb by itself. This could happen when the size of the packet is
a multiple of MSS, hence the first segment is also the last one (there
is no need for a remainder skb).
When the post-loop segment is a GSO skb, assign the single MSS length in
the UDP header.

The cited commit started using msslen for uh->len, but still uses newlen
to adjust uh->check. Although the checksum is ignored in most cases due
to the hardware offload, __udp_gso_segment attempts to maintain the
correct one. Fix uh->check and adjust it by the right value.
Additionally, after the fix, newlen becomes assigned and unused before
the loop. The code can be simplified a bit if mss adjustment is dropped,
so that newlen becomes equal to msslen before the loop, and msslen can
be also dropped, saving a few lines of code.
This brings us back to one variable, drops an unneeded arithmetic for
mss, and fixes the UDP checksum.

During out-of-tree builds (or when O= is specified), Make checked for the
unprefixed target 'tools/perf/perf-archive'. Since the actual script was
installed into $(OUTPUT)perf-archive, Make concluded the target was
missing and continuously re-executed the script installation rule on every

In pmu-events/Build, ZENS, ARMS, and INTELS were assigned using recursive
assignment (=), and model_name/vendor_name were evaluated using shell
macros (echo ... | sed ...).
Because these variables were expanded inside the COPY_RULE dependency
evaluation loop across hundreds of PMU JSON files and inside every metric
generation recipe, Kbuild continuously re-executed 'ls', 'grep', and 'sed'
shell forks thousands of times during AST parsing and execution.
Convert ZENS, ARMS, and INTELS to simply expanded variables (:=) and
replace model_name/vendor_name with pure GNU Make string functions. This
guarantees Make executes directory probing shell forks exactly once when
the Build file is parsed and evaluates path macros purely in memory,
completely eliminating over 7,800 redundant sub-processes during build
startup.

Booting with "nopcid" clears X86_FEATURE_PCID and keeps CR4.PCIDE from being
set to one. On AMD CPUs that support INVLPGB, broadcast TLB flushing remains
enabled.
There are two checks that decide whether the global ASID code runs,
mm_global_asid() and consider_global_asid(), that key off of the
X86_FEATURE_INVLPGB feature. Once an mm becomes active on more than three
CPUs, consider_global_asid() assigns it a global ASID, after which
flush_tlb_mm_range() takes the broadcast_tlb_flush() path using a non-zero
PCID. Issuing an INVLPGB with a non-zero PCID while CR4.PCIDE is not set
results in a #GP:
Oops: general protection fault, kernel NULL pointer dereference 0x1: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI

All processors that support broadcast TLB invalidation also have PCID support,
so it is only the "nopcid" scenario that is of concern. In this situation just
disable the broadcast TLB support using the CPUID dependency support by making
X86_FEATURE_INVLPGB dependent on X86_FEATURE_PCID.

xe_vfio_pci_reset_done() sets deferred_reset and, when it manages to
acquire state_mutex itself, hands the cleanup off to
xe_vfio_pci_state_mutex_unlock().
That helper already clears deferred_reset and runs xe_vfio_pci_reset()
before dropping the mutex. Calling xe_vfio_pci_reset() again right
afterwards repeats the reset handling unnecessarily.

Currently, jevents.py emits both the massive 2.8 MB big_c_string literal
and tens of thousands of compact_pmu_event struct arrays into a single
pmu-events.c compilation unit. Compiling this giant file takes ~2.2 seconds
on a single CPU core during Kbuild startup.
Refactor jevents.py to emit big_c_string into a dedicated
pmu-events-string.c compilation unit. This allows Kbuild to compile
pmu-events.o and pmu-events-string.o simultaneously in parallel across
two separate CPU cores, preserving 100% string deduplication and zero
dynamic ELF relocations while cutting C compilation latency in half.
Add pmu-events-string.c to tools/perf/.gitignore to ensure in-tree Kbuild
runs do not leave untracked generated files in the working directory.
To guarantee 100% backward compatibility with GNU Make 4.0+ (avoiding the
Make 4.3+ grouped target &: syntax which causes older Make versions like
4.2.1 to spawn multiple concurrent jevents.py processes during parallel
builds), implement a robust dependency chaining pattern:
$(PMU_EVENTS_C): $(JEVENTS_DEPS)
$(PMU_EVENTS_STRING_C): $(PMU_EVENTS_C)
@:
This ensures jevents.py is invoked exactly once. If jevents.py aborts
early, Make's .DELETE_ON_ERROR: purges pmu-events.c, guaranteeing that
subsequent Make invocations correctly re-execute the script and overwrite
pmu-events-string.c. In jevents.py, explicitly close output_file first
and output_string_file second at the tail of main() to guarantee that
pmu-events-string.c receives a filesystem timestamp greater than or equal
to pmu-events.c, completely avoiding redundant incremental rebuilds.

By default, the perf tool compiles and statically links against its own
internal copy of libbpf (tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.a), setting LIBBPF_STATIC=1.
Despite this static linkage, Makefile.config unconditionally executed
$(call feature_check,libbpf), which forced a synchronous sub-make fork
during AST parsing to detect dynamic system libbpf libraries.
As noted in the internal Makefile comments, this check was executed purely
so that running `make VF=1` would display the detection status of system
libbpf. During standard builds without LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1, the detection
result was entirely ignored.
Wrap the libbpf feature check inside LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 so Make avoids the
redundant sub-make fork overhead during standard static builds.

Currently, BPF skeleton generation rules (bpf_skel.mak) are evaluated as
part of util/Build. However, because LIBPERF_UTIL_IN explicitly depends
on the top-level static libbpf archive, Make completely blocked the
execution of bpftool bootstrap and skeleton generation until libbpf
finished compiling midway through the build.
Since bpftool bootstrap compiles its own independent copy of libbpf.a, it
does not depend on the top-level libbpf target.
Decouple early skeleton tooling generation by attaching bpf-skel-prepare
to the umbrella prepare target, exporting CONFIG_PERF_BPF_SKEL to ensure
accurate feature propagation. This allows Make to compile bpftool and
dump vmlinux.h in the background at build startup, eliminating the initial
sub-make startup bottleneck before BPF object compilation while keeping
100% of tooling rules perfectly encapsulated in bpf_skel.mak. Provide an
empty fallback target to ensure builds succeed when BPF skeletons are
disabled.

Move all bpftool and vmlinux.h generation rules down into

To prevent parallel sub-makes (perf-util and perf-bench) from racing to

Currently, the top-level Makefile.perf defines a massive global bpf-skel
umbrella target that pre-compiles all 12+ BPF skeletons (%.skel.h) upfront
before launching sub-makes. This forces unrelated sub-makes to serialize
behind bpftool and clang BPF target evaluations, causing parallel build
bottlenecks.
Furthermore, bench_uprobe.bpf.c lived inside util/bpf_skel/, breaking
conceptual directory encapsulation since it is consumed purely by
bench/uprobe.c.
Refactor the BPF skeletons to better achieve directory isolation:
1. Move tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bench_uprobe.bpf.c directly into
tools/perf/bench/bpf_skel/.
2. Extract the skeleton generation infrastructure out of Makefile.perf into
a shared inclusion file tools/perf/bpf_skel.mak.
3. Include bpf_skel.mak locally inside tools/perf/util/Build and
tools/perf/bench/Build and bind precise local prerequisites.
4. Safely synchronize the shared bpftool bootstrap and vmlinux.h targets
via the conditional prepare: umbrella to avoid parallel sub-make races,
while evaluating the actual skeletons completely locally on demand. A
later patch will move these targets into bpf_skel.mak.
5. Export CLANG from the global Makefile to ensure accurate tool
propagation.
6. Clean up Makefile.perf by stripping the global bpf-skel umbrella target
and its SKELETONS list.
While removing code from Makefile.perf generally helps build
performance, the impact here is minimal. The main motivation for the
change is to better encapsulate things in the build and simplify
Makefile.perf that has around 50 lines removed.

Currently, the $(LIBPMU_EVENTS_IN) sub-make depends on the massive
"prepare" umbrella target. Because "prepare" depends on external
libraries (libapi, libperf, etc.) as well as dozens of generated
headers, make completely serializes the launch of the pmu-events
sub-make behind some of those unrelated prerequisites.
Since pmu-events is a large compilation unit, unblock its startup by
binding it directly to only $(LIBPERF) instead of prepare. This allows
background python generation scripts to overlap simultaneously with
the rest of the build.
Testing a parallel build (make -j28 clean all) shows improvements:
Before:
real 0m27.642s
user 2m32.356s
sys 0m26.683s
After:
real 0m22.254s
user 2m32.810s
sys 0m24.646s
This reclaims over 5 full seconds of build latency (~19.5% overall
reduction) by elevating average CPU concurrency from ~5.5 active cores
up to ~8 active cores.

Previously, builtin-trace.c directly included 15 embedded C files
(e.g. trace/beauty/mmap.c and fsconfig_arrays.c), which in turn depend
on dozens of generated beauty script arrays. To satisfy these embedded
inclusions, the global Makefile.perf would define all the generator
variables/rules and include them in the prepare umbrella target, choking
parallel build startup.
Furthermore, tools/perf/util/syscalltbl.c included its own generated mapper,
and util/env.c conditionally included arch_errno_names.c inline, splitting
consumers across directories and preventing clean Make encapsulation.
Refactor the framework to achieve better encapsulation:
1. Move util/syscalltbl.[ch] into trace/beauty/ to co-locate with all
generated code consumers.
2. Create fsconfig.c and flatten embedded beauty .c files to compile as
independent standalone objects via trace/beauty/Build, exporting their
formatting functions via beauty.h and env.h. Switch arch_errno_names.o
and syscalltbl.o assignments directly to perf-util-y and add an
unconditional top-level recursive kbuild hook (perf-util-y += trace/beauty/)
to compile them into libperf-util.a, resolving remote linkage for util/env.c,
util/bpf-trace-summary.c, and standalone python extensions.
3. Bridge private opaque references (struct trace) securely via accessors
trace__show_zeros() and trace__host(), avoiding header entanglements.
4. Consolidate all generator variables, script paths, and array generation
rules entirely out of Makefile.perf and place them directly inside the
exact local Build files where their output objects are compiled
(trace/beauty/Build and trace/beauty/tracepoints/Build), binding
prerequisites locally. Use directly inside
generator recipes to guarantee dynamic directory creation before script
redirection, and append across all rules to print
clean, standardized GEN ... file.c output during compilation.
5. Clean up clean target to recursively remove the generated directory
instead of relying on dozens of individual variables.
This unchokes the "prepare" target parallel barrier, allows make to evaluate
generation scripts purely locally where consumed, and flattens the tracepoint
formatting architecture.
Testing a parallel build (make -j28 all from scratch) shows improvements:
Before:
real 0m28.689s
user 2m38.490s
sys 0m30.148s
After:
real 0m27.642s
user 2m32.356s
sys 0m26.683s
So reclaiming ~9.6 seconds of raw CPU time and over 1 full second off
overall real-world build latency, by overlapping sub-make startup and
avoiding top-level double-parsing overhead.

__cmd_contention() suffers from the same lost-wakeup race as the perf
sched stats paths: SIGCHLD can be consumed by the signal handler
before pause() is entered, hanging the process.
Apply the same fix: replace pause() with a loop checking the 'done'
flag and using waitpid(WNOHANG) for the workload case.

If the profiled workload exits very quickly, SIGCHLD can be delivered
and consumed by the empty signal handler before the process enters
pause(), causing an indefinite hang.
Fix this with a simpler approach:
- The signal handler now sets a 'volatile sig_atomic_t done' flag.
Reset 'done' before registering signal handlers so that an early
signal during setup is not discarded by a later reset.
- Replace pause() with a loop that checks 'done' and uses
waitpid(WNOHANG) to detect child exit without blocking. This
handles both workload mode (child exits) and system-wide mode
(user sends SIGINT/SIGTERM). Using WNOHANG avoids the SA_RESTART
problem where a blocking waitpid() would auto-restart and ignore
the done flag if the child doesn't exit on signal.

On modern Xeon platforms, such as Granite Rapids, Sierra Forest, and
Clearwater Forest, there are two flavors of requestable C6 states: C6
and C6P. C6 allows only core C6 (CC6), while C6P allows both CC6 and
package C6 (PC6). PC6 saves more power but also has a higher exit
latency, so many users disable it in BIOS.
When PC6 is disabled, C6P becomes identical to C6 — the CPU treats C6P
requests as C6 requests. Exposing both C6 and C6P to user space in this
situation is confusing: two states with the same name look different but
behave the same. It also adds unnecessary overhead to the cpuidle
subsystem, which is a fast path: the governor evaluates every registered
state on idle entry.
Drop C-states that are redundant when PC6 is disabled by marking them
with CPUIDLE_FLAG_UNUSABLE, which causes cpuidle to exclude them when
registering idle states.

Introduce the skx_is_pc6_disabled() for checking if PC6 is disabled and
switch the following functions to use it:
- skx_idle_state_table_update()
- spr_idle_state_table_update()
At the same time, clean them up improving the commentary and moving it to
the function kernel-doc.
Purely a clean up, no functional changes intended.

Add two constants for the package C-state limit fields in
MSR_PKG_CST_CONFIG_CONTROL.
The SKX_ prefix stands for "Skylake Xeon" and makes it explicit that
the mask is CPU model-specific. The same values have applied to all
Xeon platforms starting from SKX.
