Merge tag 'trace-v5.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

2021-07-03T18:13:22Z

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Added option for per CPU threads to the hwlat tracer - Have hwlat tracer handle hotplug CPUs - New tracer: osnoise, that detects latency caused by interrupts, softirqs and scheduling of other tasks. - Added timerlat tracer that creates a thread and measures in detail what sources of latency it has for wake ups. - Removed the "success" field of the sched_wakeup trace event. This has been hardcoded as "1" since 2015, no tooling should be looking at it now. If one exists, we can revert this commit, fix that tool and try to remove it again in the future. - tgid mapping fixed to handle more than PID_MAX_DEFAULT pids/tgids. - New boot command line option "tp_printk_stop", as tp_printk causes trace events to write to console. When user space starts, this can easily live lock the system. Having a boot option to stop just after boot up is useful to prevent that from happening. - Have ftrace_dump_on_oops boot command line option take numbers that match the numbers shown in /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops. - Bootconfig clean ups, fixes and enhancements. - New ktest script that tests bootconfig options. - Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() to register a tracepoint without triggering a WARN*() if it already exists. BPF has a path from user space that can do this. All other paths are considered a bug. - Small clean ups and fixes * tag 'trace-v5.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (49 commits) tracing: Resize tgid_map to pid_max, not PID_MAX_DEFAULT tracing: Simplify & fix saved_tgids logic treewide: Add missing semicolons to __assign_str uses tracing: Change variable type as bool for clean-up trace/timerlat: Fix indentation on timerlat_main() trace/osnoise: Make 'noise' variable s64 in run_osnoise() tracepoint: Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() for BPF tracing tracing: Fix spelling in osnoise tracer "interferences" -> "interference" Documentation: Fix a typo on trace/osnoise-tracer trace/osnoise: Fix return value on osnoise_init_hotplug_support trace/osnoise: Make interval u64 on osnoise_main trace/osnoise: Fix 'no previous prototype' warnings tracing: Have osnoise_main() add a quiescent state for task rcu seq_buf: Make trace_seq_putmem_hex() support data longer than 8 seq_buf: Fix overflow in seq_buf_putmem_hex() trace/osnoise: Support hotplug operations trace/hwlat: Support hotplug operations trace/hwlat: Protect kdata->kthread with get/put_online_cpus trace: Add timerlat tracer trace: Add osnoise tracer ...

userfaultfd/shmem: advertise shmem minor fault support

2021-07-01T03:47:27Z

Now that the feature is fully implemented (the faulting path hooks exist so userspace is notified, and the ioctl to resolve such faults is available), advertise this as a supported feature.

mm: hugetlb: introduce CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_FREE_VMEMMAP_DEFAULT_ON

2021-07-01T03:47:26Z

When using HUGETLB_PAGE_FREE_VMEMMAP, the freeing unused vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page is default off. Now the vmemmap is PMD mapped. So there is no side effect when this feature is enabled with no HugeTLB pages in the system. Someone may want to enable this feature in the compiler time instead of using boot command line. So add a config to make it default on when someone do not want to enable it via command line.
