[PATCH net 0/5] mptcp: misc. fixes for v6.7

by Matthieu Baerts

Here are a few fixes related to MPTCP: - Patch 1 limits GSO max size to ~64K when MPTCP is being used due to a spec limit. 'gso_max_size' can exceed the max value supported by MPTCP since v5.19. - Patch 2 fixes a possible NULL pointer dereference on close that can happen since v6.7-rc1. - Patch 3 avoids sending a RM_ADDR when the corresponding address is no longer tracked locally. A regression for a fix backported to v5.19. - Patch 4 adds a missing lock when changing the IP TOS with setsockopt(). A fix for v5.17. - Patch 5 fixes an expectation when running MPTCP Join selftest with the checksum option (-C). An issue present since v6.1.

[PATCH v2 00/21] arm64: Support for 2023 DPISA extensions

by Mark Brown

This series enables support for the data processing extensions in the newly released 2023 architecture, this is mainly support for 8 bit floating point formats. Most of the extensions only introduce new instructions and therefore only require hwcaps but there is a new EL0 visible control register FPMR used to control the 8 bit floating point formats, we need to manage traps for this and context switch it. The sharing of floating point save code between the host and guest kernels slightly complicates the introduction of KVM support, we first introduce host support with some placeholders for KVM then replace those with the actual KVM support. I've not added test coverage for ptrace, I've got a not quite finished test program which exercises all the FP ptrace interfaces and their interactions together, my plan is to cover it there rather than add another tiny test program that duplicates the boilerplace for tracing a target and doesn't actually run the traced program.

[PATCH V10 0/7] amd-pstate preferred core

by Meng Li

Hi all: The core frequency is subjected to the process variation in semiconductors. Not all cores are able to reach the maximum frequency respecting the infrastructure limits. Consequently, AMD has redefined the concept of maximum frequency of a part. This means that a fraction of cores can reach maximum frequency. To find the best process scheduling policy for a given scenario, OS needs to know the core ordering informed by the platform through highest performance capability register of the CPPC interface. Earlier implementations of amd-pstate preferred core only support a static core ranking and targeted performance. Now it has the ability to dynamically change the preferred core based on the workload and platform conditions and accounting for thermals and aging. Amd-pstate driver utilizes the functions and data structures provided by the ITMT architecture to enable the scheduler to favor scheduling on cores which can be get a higher frequency with lower voltage. We call it amd-pstate preferred core. Here sched_set_itmt_core_prio() is called to set priorities and sched_set_itmt_support() is called to enable ITMT feature. Amd-pstate driver uses the highest performance value to indicate the priority of CPU. The higher value has a higher priority. Amd-pstate driver will provide an initial core ordering at boot time. It relies on the CPPC interface to communicate the core ranking to the operating system and scheduler to make sure that OS is choosing the cores with highest performance firstly for scheduling the process. When amd-pstate driver receives a message with the highest performance change, it will update the core ranking. Changes from V9->V10: - cpufreq: amd-pstate: - - add judgement for highest_perf. When it is less than 255, the preferred core feature is enabled. And it will set the priority. - - deleset "static u32 max_highest_perf" etc, because amd p-state perferred coe does not require specail process for hotpulg. Changes form V8->V9: - all: - - pick up Tested-By flag added by Oleksandr. - cpufreq: amd-pstate: - - pick up Review-By flag added by Wyes. - - ignore modification of bug. - - add a attribute of prefcore_ranking. - - modify data type conversion from u32 to int. - Documentation: amd-pstate: - - pick up Review-By flag added by Wyes. Changes form V7->V8: - all: - - pick up Review-By flag added by Mario and Ray. - cpufreq: amd-pstate: - - use hw_prefcore embeds into cpudata structure. - - delete preferred core init from cpu online/off.

[PATCH v3] KVM: selftests: Initialise dynamically allocated configuration names

by Mark Brown

When we dynamically generate a name for a configuration in get-reg-list we use strcat() to append to a buffer allocated using malloc() but we never initialise that buffer. Since malloc() offers no guarantees regarding the contents of the memory it returns this can lead to us corrupting, and likely overflowing, the buffer: vregs: PASS vregs+pmu: PASS sve: PASS sve+pmu: PASS vregs+pauth_address+pauth_generic: PASS X�vr+gspauth_addre+spauth_generi+pmu: PASS Initialise the buffer to an empty string to avoid this.

[PATCH v2 0/4] cgroup/cpuset: Improve CPU isolation in isolated partitions

by Waiman Long

v2: - Add 2 read-only workqueue sysfs files to expose the user requested cpumask as well as the isolated CPUs to be excluded from wq_unbound_cpumask. - Ensure that caller of the new workqueue_unbound_exclude_cpumask() hold cpus_read_lock. - Update the cpuset code to make sure the cpus_read_lock is held whenever workqueue_unbound_exclude_cpumask() may be called. Isolated cpuset partition can currently be created to contain an exclusive set of CPUs not used in other cgroups and with load balancing disabled to reduce interference from the scheduler. The main purpose of this isolated partition type is to dynamically emulate what can be done via the "isolcpus" boot command line option, specifically the default domain flag. One effect of the "isolcpus" option is to remove the isolated CPUs from the cpumasks of unbound workqueues since running work functions in an isolated CPU can be a major source of interference. Changing the unbound workqueue cpumasks can be done at run time by writing an appropriate cpumask without the isolated CPUs to /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/cpumask. So one can set up an isolated cpuset partition and then write to the cpumask sysfs file to achieve similar level of CPU isolation. However, this manual process can be error prone. This patch series implements automatic exclusion of isolated CPUs from unbound workqueue cpumasks when an isolated cpuset partition is created and then adds those CPUs back when the isolated partition is destroyed. There are also other places in the kernel that look at the HK_FLAG_DOMAIN cpumask or other HK_FLAG_* cpumasks and exclude the isolated CPUs from certain actions to further reduce interference. CPUs in an isolated cpuset partition will not be able to avoid those interferences yet. That may change in the future as the need arises.
