In this series from Geliang, modifying MPTCP BPF selftests, we have:
- A new MPTCP subflow BPF program setting socket options per subflow: it
looks better to have this old test program in the BPF selftests to
track regressions and to serve as example.
Note: Nicolas is no longer working for Tessares, but he did this work
while working for them, and his email address is no longer available.
- A new MPTCP BPF subtest validating this new BPF program.

Changes in v2:
- Previous patches 1/4 and 2/4 have been dropped from this series:
- 1/4: "selftests/bpf: Handle SIGINT when creating netns":
- A new version, more generic and no longer specific to MPTCP BPF
selftest will be sent later, as part of a new series. (Alexei)
- 2/4: "selftests/bpf: Add RUN_MPTCP_TEST macro":
- Removed, not to hide helper functions in macros. (Alexei)
- The commit message of patch 1/2 has been clarified to avoid some
possible confusions spot by Alexei.

The function "scheduler_tick" was renamed to "sched_tick" and a selftest
that used that function for testing function trace filtering used that
function as part of the test.
But the change causes it to fail when run on older kernels. As tests
should not fail on older kernels, add a check to see which name is
available before testing.

2.43.0
Hi,
This attempts to implement PT_LOAD p_align support for static PIE builds.
I intend this to go into -next after the coming merge window so we can
maximize bake time. In the past we've had regressions with both the
selftests and the ELF loader. Hopefully we can shake everything out over
a few months. :)
Thanks!
-Kees

2.34.1
This patch series implements a new char misc driver, /dev/ntsync, which is used
to implement Windows NT synchronization primitives.
NT synchronization primitives are unique in that the wait functions both are
vectored, operate on multiple types of object with different behaviour (mutex,
semaphore, event), and affect the state of the objects they wait on. This model
is not compatible with existing kernel synchronization objects or interfaces,
and therefore the ntsync driver implements its own wait queues and locking.
This patch series is rebased against the "char-misc-next" branch of
gregkh/char-misc.git.
== Background ==
The Wine project emulates the Windows API in user space. One particular part of
that API, namely the NT synchronization primitives, have historically been
implemented via RPC to a dedicated "kernel" process. However, more recent
applications use these APIs more strenuously, and the overhead of RPC has become
a bottleneck.
The NT synchronization APIs are too complex to implement on top of existing
primitives without sacrificing correctness. Certain operations, such as
NtPulseEvent() or the "wait-for-all" mode of NtWaitForMultipleObjects(), require
direct control over the underlying wait queue, and implementing a wait queue
sufficiently robust for Wine in user space is not possible. This proposed
driver, therefore, implements the problematic interfaces directly in the Linux
kernel.
This driver was presented at Linux Plumbers Conference 2023. For those further
interested in the history of synchronization in Wine and past attempts to solve
this problem in user space, a recording of the presentation can be viewed here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjU4nyWyhU8
== Performance ==
The performance measurements described below are copied from earlier versions of
the patch set. While some of the code has changed, I do not currently anticipate
that it has changed drastically enough to affect those measurements.
The gain in performance varies wildly depending on the application in question
and the user's hardware. For some games NT synchronization is not a bottleneck
and no change can be observed, but for others frame rate improvements of 50 to
150 percent are not atypical. The following table lists frame rate measurements
from a variety of games on a variety of hardware, taken by users Dmitry
Skvortsov, FuzzyQuils, OnMars, and myself:

== Patches ==
The intended semantics of the patches are broadly intended to match those of the
corresponding Windows functions. For those not already familiar with the Windows
functions (or their undocumented behaviour), patch 27/28 provides a detailed
specification, and individual patches also include a brief description of the
API they are implementing.
The patches making use of this driver in Wine can be retrieved or browsed here:
https://repo.or.cz/wine/zf.git/shortlog/refs/heads/ntsync5
== Previous versions ==
Changes from v4:
* Rework wait-all locking code to avoid taking more than one spinlock at a time,
and also to fix a race where the wait-all lock would not be not correctly
taken. The new locking mechanism involves taking a simple spinlock for normal
"any" waits, and taking a device-wide mutex for "all" waits or when locking
any object that is involved in an "all" wait. The mechanism was written by
Peter Zijlstra.
* Try to reword or clarify various parts of the documentation (patch 27), per
Peter Zijlstra.
* I did not rename NTSYNC_IOC_SEM_POST to RELEASE (like NT) although this was
suggested by Peter Zijlstra, mostly because it's not clear to me that renaming
an already committed ioctl would be fine. The API committed isn't actually
usable yet, though, so if altering it would be fine on those grounds, I can
revise this series to rename the function accordingly.
* Similarly, I did not change the create ioctls to return the fd directly,
although this was suggested and would be a bit simpler and cleaner, because
NTSYNC_IOC_CREATE_SEM already exists upstream and returns the fd through a
struct. I can make this change in the next revision if that'd be preferable. I
also still would appreciate a clarification on the advice in [1].

2.43.0
From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt(a)goodmis.org>
A regression happened where running the ownership test passes on the first
iteration but fails running it a second time. This was caught and fixed,
but a later change brought it back. The regression was missed because the
automated tests only run the tests once per boot.
Change the ownership test to iterate through the tests twice, as this will
catch the regression with a single run.
