Merge tag 'bpf-next-6.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next
Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov: - Convert selftests/bpf/test_tc_edt and test_tc_tunnel from .sh to test_progs runner (Alexis Lothoré) - Convert selftests/bpf/test_xsk to test_progs runner (Bastien Curutchet) - Replace bpf memory allocator with kmalloc_nolock() in bpf_local_storage (Amery Hung), and in bpf streams and range tree (Puranjay Mohan) - Introduce support for indirect jumps in BPF verifier and x86 JIT (Anton Protopopov) and arm64 JIT (Puranjay Mohan) - Remove runqslower bpf tool (Hoyeon Lee) - Fix corner cases in the verifier to close several syzbot reports (Eduard Zingerman, KaFai Wan) - Several improvements in deadlock detection in rqspinlock (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi) - Implement "jmp" mode for BPF trampoline and corresponding DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_JMP. It improves "fexit" program type performance from 80 M/s to 136 M/s. With Steven's Ack. (Menglong Dong) - Add ability to test non-linear skbs in BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN (Paul Chaignon) - Do not let BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN emit invalid GSO types to stack (Daniel Borkmann) - Generalize buildid reader into bpf_dynptr (Mykyta Yatsenko) - Optimize bpf_map_update_elem() for map-in-map types (Ritesh Oedayrajsingh Varma) - Introduce overwrite mode for BPF ring buffer (Xu Kuohai) * tag 'bpf-next-6.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next: (169 commits) bpf: optimize bpf_map_update_elem() for map-in-map types bpf: make kprobe_multi_link_prog_run always_inline selftests/bpf: do not hardcode target rate in test_tc_edt BPF program selftests/bpf: remove test_tc_edt.sh selftests/bpf: integrate test_tc_edt into test_progs selftests/bpf: rename test_tc_edt.bpf.c section to expose program type selftests/bpf: Add success stats to rqspinlock stress test rqspinlock: Precede non-head waiter queueing with AA check rqspinlock: Disable spinning for trylock fallback rqspinlock: Use trylock fallback when per-CPU rqnode is busy rqspinlock: Perform AA checks immediately rqspinlock: Enclose lock/unlock within lock entry acquisitions bpf: Remove runqslower tool selftests/bpf: Remove usage of lsm/file_alloc_security in selftest bpf: Disable file_alloc_security hook bpf: check for insn arrays in check_ptr_alignment bpf: force BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG on insn array creation bpf: Fix exclusive map memory leak selftests/bpf: Make CS length configurable for rqspinlock stress test selftests/bpf: Add lock wait time stats to rqspinlock stress test ...
