v22: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=881158&state=*
====
v22 aims to resolve the pending issue pointed to in v21, which is the
interaction with xdp. In this series I rebase on top of the minor
refactor which refactors propagating xdp configuration to slave devices:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=881994&state=*
I then disable setting xdp on devices using memory providers, and
propagating xdp configuration to devices using memory providers.

v20 addressed some comments and resolved a test failure, but introduced
an unfortunate build error with a config edge case I wasn't testing. v21
simply resolves that error.
Major Changes:
- Resolve build error with CONFIG_PAGE_POOL=n && CONFIG_NET=y

v20 aims to resolve a couple of bug reports against v19, and addresses
some review comments around the page_pool_check_memory_provider
mechanism.
Major changes:
- Test edge cases such as header split disabled in selftest.
- Change `offset = 0` back to `offset = offset - start` to resolve issue
found in RX path by Taehee (thanks!)
- Address a few comments around page_pool_check_memory_provider() from
Pavel & Jakub.
- Removed some unnecessary includes across various patches in the
series.
- Removed unnecessary EXPORT_SYMBOL(page_pool_mem_providers) (Jakub).
- Fix regression caused by incorrect dev_get_max_mp_channel check, along
with rename (Jakub).

v18 got a thorough review (thanks!), and this iteration addresses the
feedback.
Major changes:
- Prevent deactivating mp bound queues.
- Prevent installing xdp on mp bound netdevs, or installing mps on xdp
installed netdevs.
- Fix corner cases in netlink API vis-a-vis missing attributes.
- Iron out the unreadable netmem driver support story. To be honest, the
conversation with Jakub & Pavel got a bit confusing for me. I've
implemented an approach in this set that makes sense to me, and
AFAICT, addresses the requirements. It may be good as-is, or it
may be a conversation starter/continuer. To be honest IMO there
are many ways to skin this cat and I don't see an extremely strong
reason to go for one approach over another. Here is one approach you
may like.
- Don't reset niov dma_addr on allocation & free.
- Add some tests to the selftest that catches some of the issues around
missing netlink attributes or deactivating mp-bound queues.

v17 got minor feedback: (a) to beef up the description on patch 1 and (b)
to remove the leading underscores in the header definition.
I applied (a). (b) seems to be against current conventions so I did not

v16 also got a very thorough review and some testing (thanks again!).
Thes version addresses all the concerns reported on v15, in terms of
feedback and issues reported.
Major changes:
- Use ASSERT_RTNL.
- Moved around some of the page_pool helpers definitions so I can hide
some netmem helpers in private files as Jakub suggested.
- Don't make every net_iov hold a ref on the binding as Jakub suggested.
- Fix issue reported by Taehee where we access queues after they have
been freed.

v15 got a thorough review and some testing, and this version addresses almost
all the feedback. Some more minor comments where the authors said it
could be done later, I left out.
Major changes:
- Addition of dma-buf introspection to page-pool-get and queue-get.
- Fixes to selftests suggested by Taehee.
- Fixes to documentation suggested by Donald.
- A couple of suggestions and fixes to TCP patches by Eric and David.
- Fixes to number assignements suggested by Arnd.
- Use rtnl_lock()ing to guard against queue reconfiguration while the
page_pool initialization is happening. (Jakub).
- Fixes to a few warnings reproduced by Taehee.
- Fixes to dma-buf binding suggested by Taehee and Jakub.
- Fixes to netlink UAPI suggested by Jakub
- Applied a number of Reviewed-bys and Acked-bys (including ones I lost
from v13+).

One caveat: Taehee reproduced a KASAN warning and reported it here:

I estimate the issue to be minor and easily fixable:

I hope to be able to follow up with a fix to net tree as net-next closes
imminently, but if this iteration doesn't make it in, I will repost with
a fix squashed after net-next reopens, no problem.
v15: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=865481&state=*
====
No material changes in this version, only a fix to linking against
libynl.a from the last version. Per Jakub's instructions I've pulled one
of his patches into this series, and now use the new libynl.a correctly,
I hope.

No material changes in this version. Only rebase and re-verification on
top of net-next. v13, I think, raced with commit ebad6d0334793
("net/ipv4: Use nested-BH locking for ipv4_tcp_sk.") being merged to
net-next that caused a patchwork failure to apply. This series should
apply cleanly on commit c4532232fa2a4 ("selftests: net: remove unneeded
IP_GRE config").
I did not wait the customary 24hr as Jakub said it's OK to repost as soon
as I build test the rebased version:

This iteration only addresses one minor comment from Pavel with regards
to the trace printing of netmem, and the patchwork build error
introduced in v11 because I missed doing an allmodconfig build, sorry.
Other than that v11, AFAICT, received no feedback. There is one
discussion about how the specifics of plugging io uring memory through
the page pool, but not relevant to content in this particular patchset,
AFAICT.

v11 addresses feedback received in v10. The major change is the removal
of the memory provider ops as requested by Christoph. We still
accomplish the same thing, but utilizing direct function calls with if
statements rather than generic ops.
Additionally address sparse warnings, bugs and review comments from
folks that reviewed.

- Fixed tokens leaking in DONTNEED setsockopt (Nikolay).
- Moved net_iov_dma_addr() to devmem.c and made it a devmem specific
helpers (David).
- Rename hook alloc_pages to alloc_netmems as alloc_pages is now
preprocessor macro defined and causes a build error.
v9:

GVE queue API has been merged. Submitting this version as non-RFC after
rebasing on top of the merged API, and dropped the out of tree queue API
I was carrying on github. Addressed the little feedback v8 has received.
Detailed changelog:

- Added new patch from David Wei to this series for
netdev_rx_queue_restart()
- Fixed sparse error.
- Removed CONFIG_ checks in netmem_is_net_iov()
- Flipped skb->readable to skb->unreadable
- Minor fixes to selftests & docs.
RFC v8:
=======
Major Changes:
--------------
- Fixed build error generated by patch-by-patch build.
- Applied docs suggestions from Randy.
RFC v7:
=======
Major Changes:
--------------
This revision largely rebases on top of net-next and addresses the feedback
RFCv6 received from folks, namely Jakub, Yunsheng, Arnd, David, & Pavel.
The series remains in RFC because the queue-API ndos defined in this
series are not yet implemented. I have a GVE implementation I carry out
of tree for my testing. A upstreamable GVE implementation is in the
works. Aside from that, in my estimation all the patches are ready for
review/merge. Please do take a look.
As usual the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver
implementation is here:

Detailed changelog:
- Use admin-perm in netlink API.
- Addressed feedback from Jakub with regards to netlink API
implementation.
- Renamed devmem.c functions to something more appropriate for that
file.
- Improve the performance seen through the page_pool benchmark.
- Fix the value definition of all the SO_DEVMEM_* uapi.
- Various fixes to documentation.
Perf - page-pool benchmark:
---------------------------
Improved performance of bench_page_pool_simple.ko tests compared to v6:
https://pastebin.com/raw/v5dYRg8L
net-next base: 8 cycle fast path.
RFC v6: 10 cycle fast path.
RFC v7: 9 cycle fast path.
RFC v7 with CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER disabled: 8 cycle fast path,
same as baseline.
Perf - Devmem TCP benchmark:
---------------------
Perf is about the same regardless of the changes in v7, namely the
removal of the static_branch_unlikely to improve the page_pool benchmark
performance:
189/200gbps bi-directional throughput with RX devmem TCP and regular TCP
TX i.e. ~95% line rate.
RFC v6:
=======
Major Changes:
--------------
This revision largely rebases on top of net-next and addresses the little
feedback RFCv5 received.
The series remains in RFC because the queue-API ndos defined in this
series are not yet implemented. I have a GVE implementation I carry out
of tree for my testing. A upstreamable GVE implementation is in the

review/merge. Please do take a look.
As usual the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver
implementation is here:
https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v6/
This version also comes with some performance data recorded in the cover
letter (see below changelog).
Detailed changelog:
- Rebased on top of the merged netmem_ref changes.
- Converted skb->dmabuf to skb->readable (Pavel). Pavel's original
suggestion was to remove the skb->dmabuf flag entirely, but when I
looked into it closely, I found the issue that if we remove the flag
we have to dereference the shinfo(skb) pointer to obtain the first
frag to tell whether an skb is readable or not. This can cause a
performance regression if it dirties the cache line when the
shinfo(skb) was not really needed. Instead, I converted the skb->dmabuf
flag into a generic skb->readable flag which can be re-used by io_uring
0-copy RX.
- Squashed a few locking optimizations from Eric Dumazet in the RX path
and the DEVMEM_DONTNEED setsockopt.
- Expanded the tests a bit. Added validation for invalid scenarios and
added some more coverage.
Perf - page-pool benchmark:
---------------------------
bench_page_pool_simple.ko tests with and without these changes:
https://pastebin.com/raw/ncHDwAbn
AFAIK the number that really matters in the perf tests is the
'tasklet_page_pool01_fast_path Per elem'. This one measures at about 8
cycles without the changes but there is some 1 cycle noise in some
results.
With the patches this regresses to 9 cycles with the changes but there
is 1 cycle noise occasionally running this test repeatedly.
Lastly I tried disable the static_branch_unlikely() in
netmem_is_net_iov() check. To my surprise disabling the
static_branch_unlikely() check reduces the fast path back to 8 cycles,
but the 1 cycle noise remains.
Perf - Devmem TCP benchmark:
---------------------
189/200gbps bi-directional throughput with RX devmem TCP and regular TCP
TX i.e. ~95% line rate.
Major changes in RFC v5:
========================
1. Rebased on top of 'Abstract page from net stack' series and used the
new netmem type to refer to LSB set pointers instead of re-using
struct page.
2. Downgraded this series back to RFC and called it RFC v5. This is
because this series is now dependent on 'Abstract page from net
stack'[1] and the queue API. Both are removed from the series to
reduce the patch # and those bits are fairly independent or
pre-requisite work.
3. Reworked the page_pool devmem support to use netmem and for some
more unified handling.
4. Reworked the reference counting of net_iov (renamed from
page_pool_iov) to use pp_ref_count for refcounting.
The full changes including the dependent series and GVE page pool
support is here:
https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-rfcv5/
[1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=810774
Major changes in v1:
====================
1. Implemented MVP queue API ndos to remove the userspace-visible
driver reset.
2. Fixed issues in the napi_pp_put_page() devmem frag unref path.
3. Removed RFC tag.
Many smaller addressed comments across all the patches (patches have
individual change log).
Full tree including the rest of the GVE driver changes:
https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v1
Changes in RFC v3:
==================
1. Pulled in the memory-provider dependency from Jakub's RFC[1] to make the
series reviewable and mergeable.
2. Implemented multi-rx-queue binding which was a todo in v2.
3. Fix to cmsg handling.
The sticking point in RFC v2[2] was the device reset required to refill
the device rx-queues after the dmabuf bind/unbind. The solution
suggested as I understand is a subset of the per-queue management ops
Jakub suggested or similar:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230815171638.4c057dcd@kernel.org/
This is not addressed in this revision, because:
1. This point was discussed at netconf & netdev and there is openness to
using the current approach of requiring a device reset.
2. Implementing individual queue resetting seems to be difficult for my
test bed with GVE. My prototype to test this ran into issues with the
rx-queues not coming back up properly if reset individually. At the
moment I'm unsure if it's a mistake in the POC or a genuine issue in
the virtualization stack behind GVE, which currently doesn't test
individual rx-queue restart.
3. Our usecases are not bothered by requiring a device reset to refill
the buffer queues, and we'd like to support NICs that run into this
limitation with resetting individual queues.
My thought is that drivers that have trouble with per-queue configs can
use the support in this series, while drivers that support new netdev
ops to reset individual queues can automatically reset the queue as
part of the dma-buf bind/unbind.
The same approach with device resets is presented again for consideration
with other sticking points addressed.
This proposal includes the rx devmem path only proposed for merge. For a
snapshot of my entire tree which includes the GVE POC page pool support &
device memory support:

Changes in RFC v2:
==================
The sticking point in RFC v1[1] was the dma-buf pages approach we used to
deliver the device memory to the TCP stack. RFC v2 is a proof-of-concept
that attempts to resolve this by implementing scatterlist support in the
networking stack, such that we can import the dma-buf scatterlist
directly. This is the approach proposed at a high level here[2].
Detailed changes:
1. Replaced dma-buf pages approach with importing scatterlist into the
page pool.
2. Replace the dma-buf pages centric API with a netlink API.
3. Removed the TX path implementation - there is no issue with
implementing the TX path with scatterlist approach, but leaving
out the TX path makes it easier to review.
4. Functionality is tested with this proposal, but I have not conducted
perf testing yet. I'm not sure there are regressions, but I removed
perf claims from the cover letter until they can be re-confirmed.
5. Added Signed-off-by: contributors to the implementation.
6. Fixed some bugs with the RX path since RFC v1.
Any feedback welcome, but specifically the biggest pending questions
needing feedback IMO are:
1. Feedback on the scatterlist-based approach in general.
2. Netlink API (Patch 1 & 2).
3. Approach to handle all the drivers that expect to receive pages from
the page pool (Patch 6).

==================
* TL;DR:
Device memory TCP (devmem TCP) is a proposal for transferring data to and/or
from device memory efficiently, without bouncing the data to a host memory
buffer.
* Problem:
A large amount of data transfers have device memory as the source and/or
destination. Accelerators drastically increased the volume of such transfers.
Some examples include:
- ML accelerators transferring large amounts of training data from storage into
GPU/TPU memory. In some cases ML training setup time can be as long as 50% of
TPU compute time, improving data transfer throughput & efficiency can help
improving GPU/TPU utilization.
- Distributed training, where ML accelerators, such as GPUs on different hosts,
exchange data among them.
- Distributed raw block storage applications transfer large amounts of data with
remote SSDs, much of this data does not require host processing.
Today, the majority of the Device-to-Device data transfers the network are
implemented as the following low level operations: Device-to-Host copy,
Host-to-Host network transfer, and Host-to-Device copy.
The implementation is suboptimal, especially for bulk data transfers, and can
put significant strains on system resources, such as host memory bandwidth,
PCIe bandwidth, etc. One important reason behind the current state is the
kernel’s lack of semantics to express device to network transfers.
* Proposal:
In this patch series we attempt to optimize this use case by implementing
socket APIs that enable the user to:
1. send device memory across the network directly, and
2. receive incoming network packets directly into device memory.
Packet _payloads_ go directly from the NIC to device memory for receive and from
device memory to NIC for transmit.
Packet _headers_ go to/from host memory and are processed by the TCP/IP stack
normally. The NIC _must_ support header split to achieve this.
Advantages:
- Alleviate host memory bandwidth pressure, compared to existing
network-transfer + device-copy semantics.
- Alleviate PCIe BW pressure, by limiting data transfer to the lowest level
of the PCIe tree, compared to traditional path which sends data through the
root complex.
* Patch overview:
** Part 1: netlink API
Gives user ability to bind dma-buf to an RX queue.
** Part 2: scatterlist support
Currently the standard for device memory sharing is DMABUF, which doesn't
generate struct pages. On the other hand, networking stack (skbs, drivers, and
page pool) operate on pages. We have 2 options:
1. Generate struct pages for dmabuf device memory, or,
2. Modify the networking stack to process scatterlist.
Approach #1 was attempted in RFC v1. RFC v2 implements approach #2.
** part 3: page pool support
We piggy back on page pool memory providers proposal:
https://github.com/kuba-moo/linux/tree/pp-providers
It allows the page pool to define a memory provider that provides the
page allocation and freeing. It helps abstract most of the device memory
TCP changes from the driver.
** part 4: support for unreadable skb frags
Page pool iovs are not accessible by the host; we implement changes
throughput the networking stack to correctly handle skbs with unreadable
frags.
** Part 5: recvmsg() APIs
We define user APIs for the user to send and receive device memory.
Not included with this series is the GVE devmem TCP support, just to
simplify the review. Code available here if desired:
https://github.com/mina/linux/tree/tcpdevmem
This series is built on top of net-next with Jakub's pp-providers changes
cherry-picked.
* NIC dependencies:
1. (strict) Devmem TCP require the NIC to support header split, i.e. the
capability to split incoming packets into a header + payload and to put
each into a separate buffer. Devmem TCP works by using device memory
for the packet payload, and host memory for the packet headers.
2. (optional) Devmem TCP works better with flow steering support & RSS support,
i.e. the NIC's ability to steer flows into certain rx queues. This allows the
sysadmin to enable devmem TCP on a subset of the rx queues, and steer
devmem TCP traffic onto these queues and non devmem TCP elsewhere.
The NIC I have access to with these properties is the GVE with DQO support
running in Google Cloud, but any NIC that supports these features would suffice.
I may be able to help reviewers bring up devmem TCP on their NICs.
* Testing:
The series includes a udmabuf kselftest that show a simple use case of
devmem TCP and validates the entire data path end to end without
a dependency on a specific dmabuf provider.
** Test Setup
Kernel: net-next with this series and memory provider API cherry-picked
locally.
Hardware: Google Cloud A3 VMs.
NIC: GVE with header split & RSS & flow steering support.

2.46.0.295.g3b9ea8a38a-goog
The arm64 Guarded Control Stack (GCS) feature provides support for
hardware protected stacks of return addresses, intended to provide
hardening against return oriented programming (ROP) attacks and to make
it easier to gather call stacks for applications such as profiling.
When GCS is active a secondary stack called the Guarded Control Stack is
maintained, protected with a memory attribute which means that it can
only be written with specific GCS operations. The current GCS pointer
can not be directly written to by userspace. When a BL is executed the
value stored in LR is also pushed onto the GCS, and when a RET is
executed the top of the GCS is popped and compared to LR with a fault
being raised if the values do not match. GCS operations may only be
performed on GCS pages, a data abort is generated if they are not.
The combination of hardware enforcement and lack of extra instructions
in the function entry and exit paths should result in something which
has less overhead and is more difficult to attack than a purely software
implementation like clang's shadow stacks.
This series implements support for use of GCS by userspace, along with
support for use of GCS within KVM guests. It does not enable use of GCS
by either EL1 or EL2, this will be implemented separately. Executables
are started without GCS and must use a prctl() to enable it, it is
expected that this will be done very early in application execution by
the dynamic linker or other startup code. For dynamic linking this will
be done by checking that everything in the executable is marked as GCS
compatible.
x86 has an equivalent feature called shadow stacks, this series depends
on the x86 patches for generic memory management support for the new
guarded/shadow stack page type and shares APIs as much as possible. As
there has been extensive discussion with the wider community around the
ABI for shadow stacks I have as far as practical kept implementation
decisions close to those for x86, anticipating that review would lead to
similar conclusions in the absence of strong reasoning for divergence.
The main divergence I am concious of is that x86 allows shadow stack to
be enabled and disabled repeatedly, freeing the shadow stack for the
thread whenever disabled, while this implementation keeps the GCS
allocated after disable but refuses to reenable it. This is to avoid
races with things actively walking the GCS during a disable, we do
anticipate that some systems will wish to disable GCS at runtime but are
not aware of any demand for subsequently reenabling it.
x86 uses an arch_prctl() to manage enable and disable, since only x86
and S/390 use arch_prctl() a generic prctl() was proposed[1] as part of a
patch set for the equivalent RISC-V Zicfiss feature which I initially
adopted fairly directly but following review feedback has been revised
quite a bit.
We currently maintain the x86 pattern of implicitly allocating a shadow
stack for threads started with shadow stack enabled, there has been some
discussion of removing this support and requiring the use of clone3()
with explicit allocation of shadow stacks instead. I have no strong
feelings either way, implicit allocation is not really consistent with
anything else we do and creates the potential for errors around thread
exit but on the other hand it is existing ABI on x86 and minimises the
changes needed in userspace code.
glibc and bionic changes using this ABI have been implemented and
tested. Headless Android systems have been validated and Ross Burton
has used this code has been used to bring up a Yocto system with GCS
enabed as standard, a test implementation of V8 support has also been
done.
There is an open issue with support for CRIU, on x86 this required the
ability to set the GCS mode via ptrace. This series supports
configuring mode bits other than enable/disable via ptrace but it needs
to be confirmed if this is sufficient.
It is likely that we could relax some of the barriers added here with
some more targeted placements, this is left for further study.
There is an in process series adding clone3() support for shadow stacks:

Previous versions of this series depended on that, this dependency has
been removed in order to make merging easier.

Smatch reported the following warning:
./tools/testing/selftests/bpf/testing_helpers.c:455 get_xlated_program()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'buf' (see line 454)
It seems correct,so let's modify it based on it's suggestion.
Actually,commit b23ed4d74c4d ("selftests/bpf: Fix invalid pointer
check in get_xlated_program()") fixed an issue in the test_verifier.c
once,but it was reverted this time.
Let's solve this issue with the minimal changes possible.

Hmm. If I run this on my current 6.10-based system, I get:
$ make

CC vdso_test_getrandom
vdso_test_getrandom.c:43:41: error: field ‘params’ has incomplete type

Because KHDR_INCLUDES is /usr/include instead.
Christophe, any suggestions on this one? And any idea why loongarch is

2.34.1
In a series posted a few years ago [1], a proposal was put forward to allow the
kernel to allocate memory local to a mm and thus push it out of reach for
current and future speculation-based cross-process attacks. We still believe
this is a nice thing to have.
However, in the time passed since that post Linux mm has grown quite a few new
goodies, so we'd like to explore possibilities to implement this functionality
with less effort and churn leveraging the now available facilities.
Specifically, this is a proof-of-concept attempt to implement mm-local
allocations piggy-backing on memfd_secret(), using regular user addressess but
pinning the pages and flipping the user/supervisor flag on the respective PTEs
to make them directly accessible from kernel, and sealing the VMA to prevent
userland from taking over the address range. The approach allowed to delegate
all the heavy lifting -- address management, interactions with the direct map,
cleanup on mm teardown -- to the existing infrastructure, and required zero
architecture-specific code.
Compared to the approach used in the orignal series, where a dedicated kernel
address range and thus a dedicated PGD was used for mm-local allocations, the
one proposed here may have certain drawbacks, in particular
- using user addresses for kernel memory may violate assumptions in various
parts of kernel code which we may not have identified with smoke tests we did
- the allocated addresses are guessable by the userland (ATM they are even
visible in /proc/PID/maps but that's fixable) which may weaken the security
posture
Also included is a simple test driver and selftest to smoke test and showcase
the feature.
The code is PoC RFC and lacks a lot of checks and special case handling, but
demonstrates the idea. We'd appreciate any feedback on whether it's a viable
approach or it should better be abandoned in favor of the one with dedicated
PGD / kernel address range or yet something else.

First 3 patches are more-or-less cleanups/preparations.
Patches 4/5 are fixes for netns file descriptors leaks/open.
Patch 6 was sent to me/contributed off-list by Mohammad, who wants 32-bit
kernels to run TCP-AO.
Patch 7 is a workaround/fix for slow VMs. Albeit, I can't reproduce
the issue, but I hope it will fix netdev flakes for connect-deny-*
tests.
And the biggest change is adding TCP-AO tracepoints to selftests.
I think it's a good addition by the following reasons:
- The related tracepoints are now tested;
- It allows tcp-ao selftests to raise expectations on the kernel
behavior - up from the syscalls exit statuses + net counters.
- Provides tracepoints usage samples.
As tracepoints are not a stable ABI, any kernel changes done to them
will be reflected to the selftests, which also will allow users
to see how to change their code. It's quite better than parsing dmesg
(what BGP was doing pre-tracepoints, ugh).
Somewhat arguably, the code parses trace_pipe, rather than uses
libtraceevent (which any sane user should do). The reason behind that is
the same as for rt-netlink macros instead of libmnl: I'm trying
to minimize the library dependencies of the selftests. And the
performance of formatting text in kernel and parsing it again in a test
is not critical.
Current output sample:
> ok 73 Trace events matched expectations: 13 tcp_hash_md5_required[2] tcp_hash_md5_unexpected[4] tcp_hash_ao_required[3] tcp_ao_key_not_found[4]
Previously, tracepoints selftests were part of kernel tcp tracepoints
submission [1], but since then the code was quite changed:
- Now generic tracing setup is in lib/ftrace.c, separate from
lib/ftrace-tcp.c which utilizes TCP trace points. This separation
allows future selftests to trace non-TCP events, i.e. to find out
an skb's drop reason, which was useful in the creation of TCP-CLOSE
stress-test (not in this patch set, but used in attempt to reproduce
the issue from [2]).
- Another change is that in the previous submission the trace events
where used only to detect unexpected TCP-AO/TCP-MD5 events. In this
version the selftests will fail if an expected trace event didn't
appear.
Let's see how reliable this is on the netdev bot - it obviously passes
on my testing, but potentially may require a temporary XFAIL patch
if it misbehaves on a slow VM.

In v4 mostly worked on non-appearing events on netdev test VM.
- Set up x86 VM with the config from netdev & run stress-ng didn't
reproduce the isssue.
- Spread more error messages if tracing pthread fails to start
- Added conditional wait for tracer thread, just before destruction, in
case it didn't had a time slice to run and parse trace events.
- Addressed some of checkpatch.pl --strict warnings (with
nits from Simon Horman)
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240815-tcp-ao-selftests-upd-6-12-v3-0-7bd2e22bb…
Changes in v3:
- Corrected the selftests printing of tcp header flags, parsed from
trace points
- Fixed an issue with VRF kconfig checks (and tests)
- Made check for unexpected trace events XFAIL, yet looking into the
reason behind the fail
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240802-tcp-ao-selftests-upd-6-12-v2-0-370c99358…
Changes in v2:
- Fixed two issues with parsing TCP-AO events: the socket state and TCP
segment flags. Hopefully, won't fail on netdev.
- Reword patch 1 & 2 messages to be more informative and at some degree
formal (Paolo)
- Since commit e33a02ed6a4f ("selftests: Add printf attribute to
kselftest prints") it's possible to use __printf instead of "raw" gcc
attribute - switch using that, as checkpatch suggests.
