lib: util_macros_kunit: add kunit test for util_macros.h
A bug was found in the find_closest() (find_closest_descending() is also affected after some testing), where for certain values with small progressions of 1, 2 & 3, the rounding (done by averaging 2 values) causes an incorrect index to be returned.
The bug is described in more detail in the commit which fixes the bug. This commit adds a kunit test to validate that the fix works correctly.
This kunit test adds some of the arrays (from the driver-sphere) that seem to produce issues with the 'find_closest()' macro. Specifically the one from ad7606 driver (with which the bug was found) and from the ina2xx drivers, which shows the quirk with 'find_closest()' with elements in a array that have an interval of 3.
For the find_closest_descending() tests, the same arrays are used as for the find_closest(), but in reverse; the idea is that 'find_closest_descending()' should return the sames indices as 'find_closest()' but in reverse.
For testing both macros, there are 4 special arrays created, one for testing find_closest{_descending}() for arrays of progressions 1, 2, 3 and 4. The idea is to show that (for progressions of 1, 2 & 3) the fix works as expected. When removing the fix, the issues should start to show up.
Then an extra array of negative and positive values is added. There are currently no such arrays within drivers, but one could expect that these macros behave correctly even for such arrays.
To run this kunit: ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run "*util_macros*"

lib/min_heap: introduce non-inline versions of min heap API functions
Patch series "Enhance min heap API with non-inline functions and optimizations", v2.
Add non-inline versions of the min heap API functions in lib/min_heap.c and updates all users outside of kernel/events/core.c to use these non-inline versions. To mitigate the performance impact of indirect function calls caused by the non-inline versions of the swap and compare functions, a builtin swap has been introduced that swaps elements based on their size. Additionally, it micro-optimizes the efficiency of the min heap by pre-scaling the counter, following the same approach as in lib/sort.c. Documentation for the min heap API has also been added to the core-api section.
This patch (of 10):
All current min heap API functions are marked with '__always_inline'. However, as the number of users increases, inlining these functions everywhere leads to a increase in kernel size.
In performance-critical paths, such as when perf events are enabled and min heap functions are called on every context switch, it is important to retain the inline versions for optimal performance. To balance this, the original inline functions are kept, and additional non-inline versions of the functions have been added in lib/min_heap.c.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be a more reliable replacement for the latter.
Core:
- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising: - RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path - introduce basic per netns locking helpers - namespacified the IPv4 address hash table - remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of rtnl_register_many() - refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as possible out of RTNL lock - convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.
- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN handling consistent and reliable.
- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing better introspection in case of packets drop.
- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.
- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets and timestamps
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops size.
- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag implementation.
Netfilter:
- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI improvements.
BPF:
- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall, this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in combination with BPF cpumap.
- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority} scrubbing to its BPF program.
- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF programs.
Protocols:
- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up significantly connected sockets lookup.
- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after close, the socket lock contention.
- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state lookups.
- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing risks on loosing them.
- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per device neigh lists.
Driver API:
- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation. Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are: nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror offload.
- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on device-specific entries.
- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
Tests and tooling:
- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup phase
Drivers:
- Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic, Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better introspection.
- Ethernet high-speed NICs: - nVidia/Mellanox: - mlx5: - a large refactor to implement support for cross E-Switch scheduling - refactor H/W conter management to let it scale better - H/W GRO cleanups - Intel (100G, ice):: - add support for ethtool reset - implement support for per TX queue H/W shaping - AMD/Solarflare: - implement per device queue stats support - Broadcom (bnxt): - improve wildcard l4proto on IPv4/IPv6 ntuple rules - Marvell Octeon: - Add representor support for each Resource Virtualization Unit (RVU) device. - Hisilicon: - add support for the BMC Gigabit Ethernet - IBM (EMAC): - driver cleanup and modernization - Cisco (VIC): - raise the queues number limit to 256
- Ethernet virtual: - Google vNIC: - implement page pool support - macsec: - inherit lower device's features and TSO limits when offloading - virtio_net: - enable premapped mode by default - support for XDP socket(AF_XDP) zerocopy TX - wireguard: - set the TSO max size to be GSO_MAX_SIZE, to aggregate larger packets.
- Ethernet NICs embedded and virtual: - Broadcom ASP: - enable software timestamping - Freescale: - add enetc4 PF driver - MediaTek: Airoha SoC: - implement BQL support - RealTek r8169: - enable TSO by default on r8168/r8125 - implement extended ethtool stats - Renesas AVB: - enable TX checksum offload - Synopsys (stmmac): - support header splitting for vlan tagged packets - move common code for DWMAC4 and DWXGMAC into a separate FPE module. - add dwmac driver support for T-HEAD TH1520 SoC - Synopsys (xpcs): - driver refactor and cleanup - TI: - icssg_prueth: add VLAN offload support - Xilinx emaclite: - add clock support

Merge branch 'packing-various-improvements-and-kunit-tests'
Jacob Keller says:
==================== packing: various improvements and KUnit tests
This series contains a handful of improvements and fixes for the packing library, including the addition of KUnit tests.
There are two major changes which might be considered bug fixes:
1) The library is updated to handle arbitrary buffer lengths, fixing undefined behavior when operating on buffers which are not a multiple of 4 bytes.
2) The behavior of QUIRK_MSB_ON_THE_RIGHT is fixed to match the intended behavior when operating on packings that are not byte aligned.
These are not sent to net because no driver currently depends on this behavior. For (1), the existing users of the packing API all operate on buffers which are multiples of 4-bytes. For (2), no driver currently uses QUIRK_MSB_ON_THE_RIGHT. The incorrect behavior was found while writing KUnit tests.
This series also includes a handful of minor cleanups from Vladimir, as well as a change to introduce a separated pack() and unpack() API. This API is not (yet) used by a driver, but is the first step in implementing pack_fields() and unpack_fields() which will be used in future changes for the ice driver and changes Vladimir has in progress for other drivers using the packing API.
This series is part 1 of a 2-part series for implementing use of lib/packing in the ice driver. The 2nd part includes a new pack_fields() and unpack_fields() implementation inspired by the ice driver's existing bit packing code. It is built on top of the split pack() and unpack() code. Additionally, the KUnit tests are built on top of pack() and unpack(), based on original selftests written by Vladimir.
Fitting the entire library changes and drivers changes into a single series exceeded the usual series limits.

lib: packing: add KUnit tests adapted from selftests
Add 24 simple KUnit tests for the lib/packing.c pack() and unpack() APIs.
The first 16 tests exercise all combinations of quirks with a simple magic number value on a 16-byte buffer. The remaining 8 tests cover non-multiple-of-4 buffer sizes.
These tests were originally written by Vladimir as simple selftest functions. I adapted them to KUnit, refactoring them into a table driven approach. This will aid in adding additional tests in the future.

New implementation for IO memcpy and IO memset
The IO memcpy and IO memset functions in asm-generic/io.h simply call memcpy and memset. This can lead to alignment problems or faults on architectures that do not define their own version and fall back to these defaults. This patch introduces new implementations for IO memcpy and IO memset, that use read{l,q} accessor functions, align accesses to machine word size, and resort to byte accesses when the target memory is not aligned. For new architectures and existing ones that were using the old fallbacks these functions are save to use, because IO memory constraints are taken into account. Moreover, architectures with similar implementations can now use these new versions, not needing to implement their own.

Merge tag 'mm-nonmm-stable-2024-09-21-07-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton: "Many singleton patches - please see the various changelogs for details.
Quite a lot of nilfs2 work this time around.
Notable patch series in this pull request are:
- "mul_u64_u64_div_u64: new implementation" by Nicolas Pitre, with assistance from Uwe Kleine-König. Reimplement mul_u64_u64_div_u64() to provide (much) more accurate results. The current implementation was causing Uwe some issues in the PWM drivers.
- "xz: Updates to license, filters, and compression options" from Lasse Collin. Miscellaneous maintenance and kinor feature work to the xz decompressor.
- "Fix some GDB command error and add some GDB commands" from Kuan-Ying Lee. Fixes and enhancements to the gdb scripts.
- "treewide: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macros" from Jeff Johnson. Adds lots of MODULE_DESCRIPTIONs, thus fixing lots of warnings about this.
- "nilfs2: add support for some common ioctls" from Ryusuke Konishi. Adds various commonly-available ioctls to nilfs2.
- "This series fixes a number of formatting issues in kernel doc comments" from Ryusuke Konishi does that.
- "nilfs2: prevent unexpected ENOENT propagation" from Ryusuke Konishi. Fix issues where -ENOENT was being unintentionally and inappropriately returned to userspace.
- "nilfs2: assorted cleanups" from Huang Xiaojia.
- "nilfs2: fix potential issues with empty b-tree nodes" from Ryusuke Konishi fixes some issues which can occur on corrupted nilfs2 filesystems.
- "scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: improve error reporting and usability" from Luca Ceresoli does those things"
