Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "Main user visible change:

   - User events can now have "multi formats"

     The current user events have a single format. If another event is
     created with a different format, it will fail to be created. That
     is, once an event name is used, it cannot be used again with a
     different format. This can cause issues if a library is using an
     event and updates its format. An application using the older format
     will prevent an application using the new library from registering
     its event.

     A task could also DOS another application if it knows the event
     names, and it creates events with different formats.

     The multi-format event is in a different name space from the single
     format. Both the event name and its format are the unique
     identifier. This will allow two different applications to use the
     same user event name but with different payloads.

   - Added support to have ftrace_dump_on_oops dump out instances and
     not just the main top level tracing buffer.

  Other changes:

   - Add eventfs_root_inode

     Only the root inode has a dentry that is static (never goes away)
     and stores it upon creation. There's no reason that the thousands
     of other eventfs inodes should have a pointer that never gets set
     in its descriptor. Create a eventfs_root_inode desciptor that has a
     eventfs_inode descriptor and a dentry pointer, and only the root
     inode will use this.

   - Added WARN_ON()s in eventfs

     There's some conditionals remaining in eventfs that should never be
     hit, but instead of removing them, add WARN_ON() around them to
     make sure that they are never hit.

   - Have saved_cmdlines allocation also include the map_cmdline_to_pid
     array

     The saved_cmdlines structure allocates a large amount of data to
     hold its mappings. Within it, it has three arrays. Two are already
     apart of it: map_pid_to_cmdline[] and saved_cmdlines[]. More memory
     can be saved by also including the map_cmdline_to_pid[] array as
     well.

   - Restructure __string() and __assign_str() macros used in
     TRACE_EVENT()

     Dynamic strings in TRACE_EVENT() are declared with:

         __string(name, source)

     And assigned with:

        __assign_str(name, source)

     In the tracepoint callback of the event, the __string() is used to
     get the size needed to allocate on the ring buffer and
     __assign_str() is used to copy the string into the ring buffer.
     There's a helper structure that is created in the TRACE_EVENT()
     macro logic that will hold the string length and its position in
     the ring buffer which is created by __string().

     There are several trace events that have a function to create the
     string to save. This function is executed twice. Once for
     __string() and again for __assign_str(). There's no reason for
     this. The helper structure could also save the string it used in
     __string() and simply copy that into __assign_str() (it also
     already has its length).

     By using the structure to store the source string for the
     assignment, it means that the second argument to __assign_str() is
     no longer needed.

     It will be removed in the next merge window, but for now add a
     warning if the source string given to __string() is different than
     the source string given to __assign_str(), as the source to
     __assign_str() isn't even used and will be going away.

   - Added checks to make sure that the source of __string() is also the
     source of __assign_str() so that it can be safely removed in the
     next merge window.

     Included fixes that the above check found.

   - Other minor clean ups and fixes"

The second parameter of __assign_rel_str() is no longer used. It can be removed.

Note, the only real users of rel_string is user events. This code is just
in the sample code for testing purposes.

This makes __assign_rel_str() different than __assign_str() but that's
fine. __assign_str() is used over 700 places and has a larger impact. That
change will come later.

Now that __assign_str() gets the length from the __string() (and
__string_len()) macros, there's no reason to have a separate
__assign_str_len() macro as __assign_str() can get the length of the
string needed.

Also remove __assign_rel_str() although it had no users anyway.

Pull VFIO updates from Alex Williamson:

 - Add warning in unlikely case that device is not captured with
   driver_override (Kunwu Chan)

 - Error handling improvements in mlx5-vfio-pci to detect firmware
   tracking object error states, logging of firmware error syndrom, and
   releasing of firmware resources in aborted migration sequence (Yishai
   Hadas)

 - Correct an un-alphabetized VFIO MAINTAINERS entry (Alex Williamson)

 - Make the mdev_bus_type const and also make the class struct const for
   a couple of the vfio-mdev sample drivers (Ricardo B. Marliere)

 - Addition of a new vfio-pci variant driver for the GPU of NVIDIA's
   Grace-Hopper superchip. During initialization of the chip-to-chip
   interconnect in this hardware module, the PCI BARs of the device
   become unused in favor of a faster, coherent mechanism for exposing
   device memory. This driver primarily changes the VFIO representation
   of the device to masquerade this coherent aperture to replace the
   physical PCI BARs for userspace drivers. This also incorporates use
   of a new vma flag allowing KVM to use write combining attributes for
   uncached device memory (Ankit Agrawal)

 - Reset fixes and cleanups for the pds-vfio-pci driver. Save and
   restore files were previously leaked if the device didn't pass
   through an error state, this is resolved and later re-fixed to
   prevent access to the now freed files. Reset handling is also
   refactored to remove the complicated deferred reset mechanism (Brett
   Creeley)

 - Remove some references to pl330 in the vfio-platform amba driver
   (Geert Uytterhoeven)

 - Remove twice redundant and ugly code to unpin incidental pins of the
   zero-page (Alex Williamson)

 - Deferred reset logic is also removed from the hisi-acc-vfio-pci
   driver as a simplification (Shameer Kolothum)

 - Enforce that mlx5-vfio-pci devices must support PRE_COPY and remove
   resulting unnecessary code. There is no device firmware that has been
   available publicly without this support (Yishai Hadas)

 - Switch over to using the .remove_new callback for vfio-platform in
   support of the broader transition for a void remove function (Uwe
   Kleine-König)

 - Resolve multiple issues in interrupt code for VFIO bus drivers that
   allow calling eventfd_signal() on a NULL context. This also remove a
   potential race in INTx setup on certain hardware for vfio-pci, races
   with various mechanisms to mask INTx, and leaked virqfds in
   vfio-platform (Alex Williamson)

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks:

      - Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps
        etc) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock.

      - Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock,
        allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead
        of once for each driver / callback.

      - Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface.

      - Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock.

      - Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary.

   - Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length and
     budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults.

   - Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global
     config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible.

   - Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of
     ECMP imbalance problems.

   - Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP.

   - Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long
     enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec.

   - Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301.

   - Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding
     per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled
     control state machine.

   - Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple
     disjoint MCTP networks.

   - Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user
     space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing
     information while traversing veth links, bridge etc.

   - Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets.

   - Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray
     instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use
     on fastpaths).

   - Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list.

   - Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations.

   - Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages.

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and
     introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by
     bpf_arena).

   - Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft
     exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass).

  Netfilter:

   - Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a
     daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this
     table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as
     orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain
     ownership.

   - Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set
     type. Compact a few related data structures.

  BPF:

   - Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem
     functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd
     through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted
     &amp; unprivileged application.

   - Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between
     BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can
     have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work
     seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs.

   - Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the
     verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop
     assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate
     it.

   - Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock
     critical sections.

   - Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps
     projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops
     type.

   - Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links.

   - Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC
     layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF
     firewalls.

   - Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which
     improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF
     objects.

  Wireless:

   - Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support.

   - Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation.

  Driver API:

   - Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to
     support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between
     drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more
     uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers.

   - Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from
     drivers.

   - IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions.

   - Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level,
     to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code.

   - Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields.

  Misc:

   - Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests.

   - Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and
     packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies.

   - Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking.

   - Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message
     encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of
     nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some
     other "class type".

   - Ethernet high-speed NICs:

 "There are no core kernel changes here; it's entirely selftests and
  samples:

   - Improve reliability of selftests (Terry Tritton, Kees Cook)

   - Fix strict-aliasing warning in samples (Arnd Bergmann)"

<title>samples/landlock: Don't error out if a file path cannot be opened</title>

Instead of creating a hard error and aborting the sandbox creation,
accept file path not usable in the LL_FS_RO and LL_FS_RW environment
variables but only print a warning.  This makes it easier to test, for
instance with LL_FS_RO="${PATH}:/usr/lib:/lib"

Print that we are going to execute the command in the sandbox before
doing so.

Rename "launch" to "execute", and improve header description.

<title>vfio/mbochs: make mbochs_class constant</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit 43a7206b0963 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take
a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, so move the mbochs_class structure to be declared at build time
placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at boot time.
