Over the time, most of the changes at kernel-doc are related
to maintaining a list of transforms to convert macros into pure
C code.
Place such transforms on a separate module, to cleanup the
parser module.
There is an advantage on that: QEMU also uses our own kernel-doc,
but the xforms list there is different. By placing it on a
separate module, we can minimize the differences and make it
easier to keep QEMU in sync with Kernel upstream.
No functional changes.

Also, on defines, we have something like:

a common fabric reset not managed by software and for the latter two

The test verifies attachment to various hooks in a kernel module,
however, everything is flattened into a single test. This makes it
impossible to run or skip test cases selectively.
Isolate each BPF program into a separate subtest. This is done by
disabling auto-loading of programs and loading and testing each program
separately.
At the same time, modernize the test to use ASSERT* instead of CHECK and
replace `return` by `goto cleanup` where necessary.

cxl_detach_ep() is called during bottom-up removal when all CXL memory
devices beneath a switch port have been removed. For each port in the
hierarchy it locks both the port and its parent, removes the endpoint,
and if the port is now empty, marks it dead and unregisters the port
by calling delete_switch_port(). There are two places during this work
where the parent_port may be used after freeing:
First, a concurrent detach may have already processed a port by the
time a second worker finds it via bus_find_device(). Without pinning
parent_port, it may already be freed when we discover port->dead and
attempt to unlock the parent_port. In a production kernel that's a
silent memory corruption, with lock debug, it looks like this:
[]DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(__owner_task(owner) != get_current())
[]WARNING: kernel/locking/mutex.c:949 at __mutex_unlock_slowpath+0x1ee/0x310
[]Call Trace:
[]mutex_unlock+0xd/0x20
[]cxl_detach_ep+0x180/0x400 [cxl_core]
[]devm_action_release+0x10/0x20
[]devres_release_all+0xa8/0xe0
[]device_unbind_cleanup+0xd/0xa0
[]really_probe+0x1a6/0x3e0
Second, delete_switch_port() releases three devm actions registered
against parent_port. The last of those is unregister_port() and it
calls device_unregister() on the child port, which can cascade. If
parent_port is now also empty the device core may unregister and free
it too. So by the time delete_switch_port() returns, parent_port may
be free, and the subsequent device_unlock(&parent_port->dev) operates
on freed memory. The kernel log looks same as above, with a different
offset in cxl_detach_ep().
Both of these issues stem from the absence of a lifetime guarantee
between a child port and its parent port.
Establish a lifetime rule for ports: child ports hold a reference to
their parent device until release. Take the reference when the port
is allocated and drop it when released. This ensures the parent is
valid for the full lifetime of the child and eliminates the use after
free window in cxl_detach_ep().
This is easily reproduced with a reload of cxl_acpi in QEMU with CXL
devices present.

Convert the ring state field from 'unsigned long' to a proper bitmap
using DECLARE_BITMAP macro, aligning with the implementation pattern
already used in the i40e driver.
This change:
- Adds __IXGBE_RING_STATE_NBITS as the bitmap size sentinel to enum
ixgbe_ring_state_t (consistent with i40e's __I40E_RING_STATE_NBITS)
- Changes 'unsigned long state' to 'DECLARE_BITMAP(state,
__IXGBE_RING_STATE_NBITS)' in struct ixgbe_ring
- Removes the address-of operator (&) when passing ring->state to bit
manipulation functions, as bitmap arrays naturally decay to pointers
The change maintains functional equivalence while using the
more appropriate kernel bitmap API, consistent with other Intel Ethernet
drivers.

====================
bpf: Allow void return type for global subprogs
Global subprogs are currently not allowed to return void. Adjust
verifier logic to allow global functions with a void return type.
Exception callbacks are excluded from this change, and still require
a scalar return type.
Adding additional logic for void globals significantly complicates
check_return_code(), mainly because of how the new feature interacts
with bpf_throw(). To avoid complicating the code, refactor the return
value range validation logic into two separate functions, one for
program exits through BPF_EXIT and one for program exits through
bpf_throw(). The changes are non-functional.
Also adjust existing selftests that were ensuring that global subprogs
with void return types fail to verify. These tests should now load
successfully.
Patches 1-3 refactor check_return_code into two separate functions, one
for BPF_EXIT and one for bpf_throw(). No functional changes.
Patches 4-5 enable void globals in the verifier and add additional
selftests.

Add additional testing for void global functions. The tests
ensure that calls to void global functions properly keep
R0 invalid. Also make sure that exception callbacks still
require a return value.

Both main progs and subprogs use the same function in the verifier,
check_return_code, to verify the type and value range of the register
being returned. However, subprogs only need a subset of the logic in
check_return_code. this also goes the way - check_return_code explicitly
checks whether it is handling a subprogram in multiple places, complicating
the logic. Separate the handling of the two into separate functions.

Factor the return value range calculation logic in check_return_code
out of the function in preparation for separating the return value
validation logic for BPF_EXIT and bpf_throw().
No functional changes. The change made in return_retval_code's handling
of PROG_TRACING program types (not error'ing on the default case) is a
no-op because the match on the program attach type is exhaustive.

The test_bpftool.sh script runs a python unittest script checking
bpftool json output on different commands. As part of the ongoing effort
to get rid of any standalone test, this script should either be
converted to test_progs or removed.
As validating bpftool json output does not bring much value to the test
base (and because it would need test_progs to bring in a json parser),
remove the standalone test script.

Add tests to ensure PTR_TO_CTX supports fixed offsets for program types
that don't rewrite accesses to it. Ensure that variable offsets and
negative offsets are still rejected. An extra test also checks writing
into ctx with modified offset for syscall progs. Other program types do
not support writes (notably, writable tracepoints offer a pointer for a
writable buffer through ctx, but don't allow writing to the ctx itself).
Before the fix made in the previous commit, these tests do not succeed,
except the ones testing for failures regardless of the change.

The limitation on fixed offsets stems from the fact that certain program
types rewrite the accesses to the context structure and translate them
to accesses to the real underlying type. Technically, in the past, we
could have stashed the register offset in insn_aux and made rewrites
work, but we've never needed it in the past since the offset for such
context structures easily fit in the s16 signed instruction offset.
Regardless, the consequence is that for program types where the program
type's verifier ops doesn't supply a convert_ctx_access callback, we
unnecessarily reject accesses with a modified ctx pointer (i.e., one
whose offset has been shifted) in check_ptr_off_reg. Make an exception
for such program types (like syscall, tracepoint, raw_tp, etc.).
Pass in fixed_off_ok as true to __check_ptr_off_reg for such cases, and
accumulate the register offset into insn->off passed to check_ctx_access.
In particular, the accumulation is critical since we need to correctly
track the max_ctx_offset which is used for bounds checking the buffer
for syscall programs at runtime.

The A64_MOV macro unconditionally uses ADD Rd, Rn, #0 to implement
register moves. While functionally correct, this is not the canonical
encoding when both operands are general-purpose registers.
On AArch64, MOV has two aliases depending on the operand registers:
- MOV <Xd|SP>, <Xn|SP> → ADD <Xd|SP>, <Xn|SP>, #0
- MOV <Xd>, <Xn> → ORR <Xd>, XZR, <Xn>
The ADD form is required when the stack pointer is involved (as ORR
does not accept SP), while the ORR form is the preferred encoding for
general-purpose registers.
The ORR encoding is also measurably faster on modern microarchitectures.
A microbenchmark [1] comparing dependent chains of MOV (ORR) vs ADD #0
on an ARM Neoverse-V2 (72-core, 3.4 GHz) shows:
=== mov (ORR Xd, XZR, Xn) ===
run1 cycles/op=0.749859456
run2 cycles/op=0.749991250
run3 cycles/op=0.749601847
avg cycles/op=0.749817518
=== add0 (ADD Xd, Xn, #0) ===
run1 cycles/op=1.004777689
run2 cycles/op=1.004558266
run3 cycles/op=1.004806559
avg cycles/op=1.004714171
The ORR form completes in ~0.75 cycles/op vs ~1.00 cycles/op for ADD #0,
a ~25% improvement. This is likely because the CPU's register renaming
hardware can eliminate ORR-based moves, while ADD #0 must go through the
ALU pipeline.
Update A64_MOV to select the appropriate encoding at JIT time:
use ADD when either register is A64_SP, and ORR (via
aarch64_insn_gen_move_reg()) otherwise.
Update verifier_private_stack selftests to expect "mov x7, x0" instead
of "add x7, x0, #0x0" in the JITed instruction checks, matching the
new ORR-based encoding.

libbpf: Make optimized uprobes backward compatible
hi,
we can currently optimize uprobes on top of nop5 instructions,
so application can define USDT_NOP to nop5 and use USDT macro
to define optimized usdt probes.
This works fine on new kernels, but could have performance penalty
on older kernels, that do not have the support to optimize and to
emulate nop5 instruction.
This patchset adds support to workaround the performance penalty
on older kernels that do not support uprobe optimization, please
see detailed description in patch 2.

- renamed usdt triger benchmark names [Andrii]
- added more ip address checks to tests [Andrii]
v3 changes:
- fix __x86_64 define and other typos [CI]
- add missing '?' to usdt trigger program [CI]
v2 changes:
- after more investigation we realized there are some versions of
bpftrace and stap that does not work with solution suggested in
version 1, so we decided to switch to following solution:
- change USDT macro [1] emits nop,nop5 instructions combo by
default
- libbpf detects nop,nop5 instructions combo for USDT probe,
if there is and if uprobe syscall is detected libbpf installs
usdt probe on top of nop5 instruction to get it optimized
- added usdt trigger benchmarks [Andrii]
- several small fixes on uprobe syscall detection, tests and other places [Andrii]
- true usdt.h source [1] updated [Andrii]
- compile usdt_* objects unconditionally [Andrii]
