Real-time setups try hard to ensure proper isolation between time
critical applications and e.g. network processing performed by the
network stack in softirq and RPS is used to move the softirq
activity away from the isolated core.
If the network configuration is dynamic, with netns and devices
routinely created at run-time, enforcing the correct RPS setting
on each newly created device allowing to transient bad configuration
became complex.
These series try to address the above, introducing a new
sysctl knob: rps_default_mask. The new sysctl entry allows
configuring a systemwide RPS mask, to be enforced since receive
queue creation time without any fourther per device configuration
required.
Additionally, a simple self-test is introduced to check the
rps_default_mask behavior.

2.26.2
From: Vincent Cheng <vincent.cheng.xh(a)renesas.com>
This series adds adjust phase to the PTP Hardware Clock device interface.
Some PTP hardware clocks have a write phase mode that has
a built-in hardware filtering capability. The write phase mode
utilizes a phase offset control word instead of a frequency offset
control word. Add adjust phase function to take advantage of this
capability.
Changes since v1:
- As suggested by Richard Cochran:
1. ops->adjphase is new so need to check for non-null function pointer.
2. Kernel coding style uses lower_case_underscores.
3. Use existing PTP clock API for delayed worker.
Vincent Cheng (3):
ptp: Add adjphase function to support phase offset control.
ptp: Add adjust_phase to ptp_clock_caps capability.
ptp: ptp_clockmatrix: Add adjphase() to support PHC write phase mode.

2.7.4
Current PTP driver exposes one PTP device to user which binds network
interface/interfaces to provide timestamping. Actually we have a way
utilizing timecounter/cyclecounter to virtualize any number of PTP
clocks based on a same free running physical clock for using.
The purpose of having multiple PTP virtual clocks is for user space
to directly/easily use them for multiple domains synchronization.

The block diagram may explain how it works. Besides the PTP virtual
clocks, the packet HW timestamp converting to the bound PHC is also
done in sock driver. For user space, PTP virtual clocks can be
created via sysfs, and extended SO_TIMESTAMPING API (new flag
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_BIND_PHC) can be used to bind one PTP virtual clock
for timestamping.
The test tool timestamping.c (together with linuxptp phc_ctl tool) can
be used to verify:

2.25.1
Add RSEQ, restartable sequence, support and related selftest to RISCV.
The Kconfig option HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API is also required by
RSEQ because RSEQ will modify the content of pt_regs.sepc through
instruction_pointer_set() during the fixup procedure. In order to select
the config HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API, the missing APIs for accessing
pt_regs are also added in this patch set.
The relevant RSEQ tests in kselftest require the Binutils patch "RISC-V:
Fix linker problems with TLS copy relocs" to avoid placing
PREINIT_ARRAY and TLS variable of librseq.so at the same address.
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=3e7bd7f…
A segmental fault will happen if binutils misses this patch.

2.7.4
v2:
- Drop v1 patch 1.
- Break out some cosmetic changes into a separate patch (patch #1).
- Add a new patch to clarify the transition to invalid partition root
is mainly caused by hotplug events.
- Enhance the partition root state test including CPU online/offline
behavior and fix issues found by the test.
This patchset makes the following three major changes to the cpuset v2 code:
Patch 2: Clarify the use of invalid partition root and add new checks
to make sure that normal cpuset control file operations will not be
allowed to create invalid partition root. It also fixes some of the
issues in existing code.
Patch 3: Add a new partition state "isolated" to create a partition
root without load balancing. This is for handling intermitten workloads
that have a strict low latency requirement.
Patch 4: Allow partition roots that are not the top cpuset to distribute
all its cpus to child partitions as long as there is no task associated
with that partition root. This allows more flexibility for middleware
to manage multiple partitions.
Patch 5 updates the cgroup-v2.rst file accordingly. Patch 5 adds a new
cpuset test to test the new cpuset partition code.
Waiman Long (6):
cgroup/cpuset: Miscellaneous code cleanup
cgroup/cpuset: Clarify the use of invalid partition root
cgroup/cpuset: Add a new isolated cpus.partition type
cgroup/cpuset: Allow non-top parent partition root to distribute out
all CPUs
cgroup/cpuset: Update description of cpuset.cpus.partition in
cgroup-v2.rst

From: SeongJae Park <sjpark(a)amazon.de>
Commit 87c9c1631788 ("kunit: tool: add support for QEMU") on the 'next'
tree adds 'from __future__ import annotations' in 'kunit_kernel.py'.
Because it is supported on only >=3.7 Python, people using older Python
will get below error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py", line 20, in <module>
import kunit_kernel
File "/home/sjpark/linux/tools/testing/kunit/kunit_kernel.py", line 9
from __future__ import annotations
^
SyntaxError: future feature annotations is not defined
This commit adds a version assertion in 'kunit.py', so that people get
more explicit error message like below:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py", line 15, in <module>
assert sys.version_info >= (3, 7)
