[PATCH] kunit: make FAULT_TEST default to n when PANIC_ON_OOPS

by Brendan Jackman

As describe in the help string, the user might want to disable these tests if they don't like to see stacktraces/BUG etc in their kernel log. However, if they enable PANIC_ON_OOPS, these tests also crash the machine, which it's safe to assume _almost_ nobody wants. One might argue that _absolutely_ nobody ever wants their kernel to crash so this should just be a hard dependency instead of a default. However, since this is rather special code that's anyway concerned with deliberately doing "bad" things, the normal rules don't seem to apply, hence prefer flexibility and allow users to set up a crashing Kconfig if they so choose.

[PATCH bpf-next v2 0/2] bpf: cpumap: improve error propagation in cpu_map_update_elem()

by Kohei Enju

This series improves error propagation in cpumap and adds selftests that cover the failure cases. Currently, failures returned from __cpu_map_entry_alloc() are ignored and always converted to -ENOMEM by cpu_map_update_elem(). This series ensures the correct error propagation and adds selftests. Changes: v2: - send to bpf-next, not to bpf - drop Fixes: tag v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20251128160504.57844-1-enjuk@amazon.com/ Kohei Enju (2): bpf: cpumap: propagate underlying error in cpu_map_update_elem() selftests/bpf: add tests for attaching invalid fd kernel/bpf/cpumap.c | 21 ++++++++++++------- .../bpf/prog_tests/xdp_cpumap_attach.c | 19 +++++++++++++++-- 2 files changed, 30 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) -- 2.51.0

[PATCH bpf 1/2] bpf: Fix truncated dmabuf iterator reads

by T.J. Mercier

If there is a large number (hundreds) of dmabufs allocated, the text output generated from dmabuf_iter_seq_show can exceed common user buffer sizes (e.g. PAGE_SIZE) necessitating multiple start/stop cycles to iterate through all dmabufs. However the dmabuf iterator currently returns NULL in dmabuf_iter_seq_start for all non-zero pos values, which results in the truncation of the output before all dmabufs are handled. After dma_buf_iter_begin / dma_buf_iter_next, the refcount of the buffer is elevated so that the BPF iterator program can run without holding any locks. When a stop occurs, instead of immediately dropping the reference on the buffer, stash a pointer to the buffer in seq->priv until either start is called or the iterator is released. This also enables the resumption of iteration without first walking through the list of dmabufs based on the pos value. Fixes: 76ea95534995 ("bpf: Add dmabuf iterator") Signed-off-by: T.J.

[PATCH v2 0/3] selftests/resctrl: Add Hygon CPUs support and bug fixes

by Xiaochen Shen

The resctrl selftest currently exhibits several failures on Hygon CPUs due to missing vendor detection and edge-case handling specific to Hygon's architecture. This patch series addresses three distinct issues: 1. Missing CPU vendor detection, causing the test to fail with "# Can not get vendor info..." on Hygon CPUs. 2. A division-by-zero crash in SNC detection on Hygon CPUs. 3. Incorrect handling of non-contiguous CBM support on Hygon CPUs. These changes enable resctrl selftest to run successfully on Hygon CPUs that support Platform QoS features. Changelog: v2: - Patch 1: switch all of the vendor id bitmasks to use BIT() (Reinette) - Patch 2: add Reviewed-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre(a)intel.com> - Patch 3: add Reviewed-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre(a)intel.com> add a maintainer note to highlight it is not a candidate for backport (Reinette) Xiaochen Shen (3): selftests/resctrl: Add CPU vendor detection for Hygon selftests/resctrl: Fix a division by zero error on Hygon selftests/resctrl: Fix non-contiguous CBM check for Hygon tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/cat_test.c | 4 ++-- tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/resctrl.h | 6 ++++-- tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/resctrl_tests.c | 2 ++ tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/resctrlfs.c | 10 ++++++++++ 4 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) -- 2.47.3

[PATCH net-next 0/4] (no cover subject)

by Breno Leitao

This patch series introduces a new configfs attribute that enables sending messages directly through netconsole without going through the kernel's logging infrastructure. This feature allows users to send custom messages, alerts, or status updates directly to netconsole receivers by writing to /sys/kernel/config/netconsole/<target>/send_msg, without poluting kernel buffers, and sending msgs to the serial, which could be slow. At Meta this is currently used in two cases right now (through printk by now): a) When a new workload enters or leave the machine. b) From time to time, as a "ping" to make sure the netconsole/machine is alive. The implementation reuses the existing message transmission functions (send_msg_udp() and send_ext_msg_udp()) to handle both basic and extended message formats. Regarding code organization, this version uses forward declarations for send_msg_udp() and send_ext_msg_udp() functions rather than relocating them within the file. While forward declarations do add a small amount of redundancy, they avoid the larger churn that would result from moving entire function definitions. --- Breno Leitao (4): netconsole: extract message fragmentation into send_msg_udp() netconsole: Add configfs attribute for direct message sending selftests/netconsole: Switch to configfs send_msg interface Documentation: netconsole: Document send_msg configfs attribute Documentation/networking/netconsole.rst | 40 +++++++++++++++ drivers/net/netconsole.c | 59 ++++++++++++++++++---- .../selftests/drivers/net/netcons_sysdata.sh | 2 +- 3 files changed, 91 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) --- base-commit: ab084f0b8d6d2ee4b1c6a28f39a2a7430bdfa7f0 change-id: 20251127-netconsole_send_msg-89813956dc23 Best regards, -- Breno Leitao <leitao(a)debian.org>

[PATCH net-next v7 0/5] net: devmem: improve cpu cost of RX token management

by Bobby Eshleman

This series improves the CPU cost of RX token management by adding an attribute to NETDEV_CMD_BIND_RX that configures sockets using the binding to avoid the xarray allocator and instead use a per-binding niov array and a uref field in niov. Improvement is ~13% cpu util per RX user thread. Using kperf, the following results were observed: Before: Average RX worker idle %: 13.13, flows 4, test runs 11 After: Average RX worker idle %: 26.32, flows 4, test runs 11 Two other approaches were tested, but with no improvement. Namely, 1) using a hashmap for tokens and 2) keeping an xarray of atomic counters but using RCU so that the hotpath could be mostly lockless. Neither of these approaches proved better than the simple array in terms of CPU. The attribute NETDEV_A_DMABUF_AUTORELEASE is added to toggle the optimization.

[PATCH kvm-next V11 0/7] Add NUMA mempolicy support for KVM guest-memfd

by Shivank Garg

This series introduces NUMA-aware memory placement support for KVM guests with guest_memfd memory backends. It builds upon Fuad Tabba's work (V17) that enabled host-mapping for guest_memfd memory [1] and can be applied directly applied on KVM tree [2] (branch kvm-next, base commit: a6ad5413, Merge branch 'guest-memfd-mmap' into HEAD) == Background == KVM's guest-memfd memory backend currently lacks support for NUMA policy enforcement, causing guest memory allocations to be distributed across host nodes according to kernel's default behavior, irrespective of any policy specified by the VMM. This limitation arises because conventional userspace NUMA control mechanisms like mbind(2) don't work since the memory isn't directly mapped to userspace when allocations occur. Fuad's work [1] provides the necessary mmap capability, and this series leverages it to enable mbind(2). == Implementation == This series implements proper NUMA policy support for guest-memfd by: 1. Adding mempolicy-aware allocation APIs to the filemap layer. 2. Introducing custom inodes (via a dedicated slab-allocated inode cache, kvm_gmem_inode_info) to store NUMA policy and metadata for guest memory. 3. Implementing get/set_policy vm_ops in guest_memfd to support NUMA policy. With these changes, VMMs can now control guest memory placement by mapping guest_memfd file descriptor and using mbind(2) to specify: - Policy modes: default, bind, interleave, or preferred - Host NUMA nodes: List of target nodes for memory allocation These Policies affect only future allocations and do not migrate existing memory. This matches mbind(2)'s default behavior which affects only new allocations unless overridden with MPOL_MF_MOVE/MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL flags (Not supported for guest_memfd as it is unmovable by design). == Upstream Plan == Phased approach as per David's guest_memfd extension overview [3] and community calls [4]: Phase 1 (this series): 1. Focuses on shared guest_memfd support (non-CoCo VMs). 2. Builds on Fuad's host-mapping work [1]. Phase2 (future work): 1. NUMA support for private guest_memfd (CoCo VMs). 2. Depends on SNP in-place conversion support [5]. This series provides a clean integration path for NUMA-aware memory management for guest_memfd and lays the groundwork for future confidential computing NUMA capabilities. Thanks, Shivank == Changelog == - v1,v2: Extended the KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD IOCTL to pass mempolicy. - v3: Introduced fbind() syscall for VMM memory-placement configuration. - v4-v6: Current approach using shared_policy support and vm_ops (based on suggestions from David [6] and guest_memfd bi-weekly upstream call discussion [7]). - v7: Use inodes to store NUMA policy instead of file [8]. - v8: Rebase on top of Fuad's V12: Host mmaping for guest_memfd memory. - v9: Rebase on top of Fuad's V13 and incorporate review comments - V10: Rebase on top of Fuad's V17. Use latest guest_memfd inode patch from Ackerley (with David's review comments). Use newer kmem_cache_create() API variant with arg parameter (Vlastimil) - V11: Rebase on kvm-next, remove RFC tag, use Ackerley's latest patch and fix a rcu race bug during kvm module unload.
