Parsing a file like drivers/scsi/isci/host.h, which contains
broken kernel-doc markups makes it create a prototype that contains
unmatched end comments.
That causes, for instance, struct sci_power_control to be shown this
this prototype:
struct sci_power_control {
* it is not. */ bool timer_started;
*/ struct sci_timer timer;
* requesters field. */ u8 phys_waiting;
*/ u8 phys_granted_power;
* mapped into requesters via struct sci_phy.phy_index */ struct isci_phy *requesters[SCI_MAX_PHYS];
};
as comments won't start with "/*" anymore.
Fix the logic to detect such cases, and keep adding the comments
inside it.

After bpf_object__prepare(), callers can use bpf_program__clone() to

loading all programs at once via bpf_object__load(). Non-zero fields in
opts override the defaults derived from the program and object

While the main goal for kernel-doc is to be used inside the Linux
Kernel, other open source projects could benefit for it. That's
currently the case of QEMU, which has a fork, mainly due to two
reasons:
- they need an extra C function transform rule;
- they handle the html output a little bit different.
Add an extra optional argument to make easier for the code to be
shared, as, with that, QEMU can just create a new derivated class
that will contain its specific rulesets, and just copy the
remaining kernel-doc files as-is.

Detect exact function names (no wildcards) in
bpf_program__attach_kprobe_multi_opts() and bypass kallsyms parsing,
passing the symbol directly to the kernel via syms[] array. This
benefits all callers, not just kprobe.session.
When the pattern contains no '*' or '?' characters, set syms to point
directly at the pattern string and cnt to 1, skipping the expensive
/proc/kallsyms or available_filter_functions parsing (~150ms per
function).
Error code normalization: the fast path returns ESRCH from kernel's
ftrace_lookup_symbols(), while the slow path returns ENOENT from
userspace kallsyms parsing. Convert ESRCH to ENOENT in the
bpf_link_create error path to maintain API consistency - both paths
now return identical error codes for "symbol not found".

btf__add_btf() currently rejects split BTF sources with -ENOTSUP.
This prevents merging types from multiple kernel module BTFs that
are all split against the same vmlinux base.
Extend btf__add_btf() to handle split BTF sources by:
- Replacing the blanket -ENOTSUP with a validation that src and dst
share the same base BTF pointer when both are split, returning
-EOPNOTSUPP on mismatch.
- Computing src_start_id from the source's base to distinguish base
type ID references (which must remain unchanged) from split type
IDs (which must be remapped to new positions in the destination).
- Using src_btf->nr_types instead of btf__type_cnt()-1 for the type
count, which is correct for both split and non-split sources.
- Skipping base string offsets (< start_str_off) during the string
rewrite loop, mirroring the type ID skip pattern. Since src and
dst share the same base BTF, base string offsets are already valid
and need no remapping.
For non-split sources the behavior is identical: src_start_id is 1,
the type_id < 1 guard is never true (VOID is already skipped), and
the remapping formula reduces to the original. start_str_off is 0
so no string offsets are skipped.

Over the time, most of the changes at kernel-doc are related
to maintaining a list of transforms to convert macros into pure
C code.
Place such transforms on a separate module, to cleanup the
parser module.
There is an advantage on that: QEMU also uses our own kernel-doc,
but the xforms list there is different. By placing it on a
separate module, we can minimize the differences and make it
easier to keep QEMU in sync with Kernel upstream.

An issue was reported that building BPF program which includes both
vmlinux.h and bpf_helpers.h from libbpf fails due to conflicting
declarations of bpf_stream_vprintk().
Remove the extern declaration from bpf_helpers.h to address this.
In order to use bpf_stream_printk() macro, BPF programs are expected
to either include vmlinux.h of the kernel they are targeting, or add
their own extern declaration.

Commit 728ff16791 ("libbpf: Add gating for arena globals relocation feature")
adds a feature gate check that loads a map and BPF program to
test the running kernel supports large direct offsets for LDIMM64
instructions. This check is currently used to calculate arena symbol
offsets during bpf_object__collect_relos, itself called by
bpf_object_open.
However, the program calling bpf_object_open may not have the permissions to
load maps and programs. This is the case with the BPF selftests, where
bpftool is invoked at compilation time during skeleton generation. This
causes errors as the feature gate unexpectedly fails with -EPERM.
Avoid this by moving all the use of the FEAT_LDIMM64_FULL_RANGE_OFF feature gate
to BPF object preparation time instead.

Commit 728ff16791 uses a PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT BPF test program to
check whether the running kernel supports large LDIMM64 offsets. The
feature gate incorrectly assumes that the program will fail at
verification time with one of two messages, depending on whether the
feature is supported by the running kernel. However,
PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT programs may fail to load before verification even
starts, e.g., if the shell does not have the appropriate capabilities.
Use a BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER program for the feature gate instead.
Also fix two minor issues. First, ensure the log buffer for the test is
initialized: Failing program load before verification led to libbpf dumping
uninitialized data to stdout. Also, ensure that close() is only called
for program_fd in the probe if the program load actually succeeded. The
call was currently failing silently with -EBADF most of the time.

Add feature gating for the arena globals relocation introduced in
commit c1f61171d4. The commit depends on a previous commit in the
same patchset that is absent from older kernels
(12a1fe6e12 "bpf/verifier: Do not limit maximum direct offset into arena map").
Without this commit, arena globals relocation with arenas >= 512MiB
fails to load and breaks libbpf's backwards compatibility.
Introduce a libbpf feature to check whether the running kernel allows for
full range ldimm64 offset, and only relocate arena globals if it does.

Tool events like duration_time don't need a perf_cpu_map that contains
all online CPUs.
Having such a perf_cpu_map causes overheads when iterating between
events for CPU affinity.
During parsing mark events that just read on a single CPU map index as
such, then during map propagation set up the evsel's CPUs and thereby
the evlists accordingly.
The setting cannot be done early in parsing as user CPUs are only fully
known when evlist__create_maps is called.

When building tools/perf the CFLAGS can contain a directory for the
installed headers.
As the headers may be being installed while building libperf.a this can
cause headers to be partially installed and found in the include path
while building an object file for libperf.a.
The installed header may reference other installed headers that are
missing given the partial nature of the install and then the build fails
with a missing header file.
Avoid this by ensuring the libperf source headers are always first in
the CFLAGS.

Mauro's work to include documentation from our Python modules. His cover
letter follows:
This is an extended version of:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/cover.1768488832.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org/
It basically adds everything we currently have inside libs/tool/python
to "tools" book inside documentation.
This version should be independent of the other series yet to be merged,
(including the jobserver one).
The vast amount of changes here are docstring cleanups and additions.
They mainly consists on:
- ensuring that every phrase will end with a period, making it uniform
along all files;
- cleaning ups to better uniform docstrings;
- variable descriptions now use "#:" markup, as it allows autodoc to
add them inside the documentation;
- added some missing docstrings;
- some new blank lines at comments to make ReST syntax parser happy;
- add a couple of sphinx markups (mainly, code blocks).
Most of those are minor changes, affecting only comments.
It also has one patch per libarary type, adding them to docs.
For kernel-doc, I did the cleanups first, as there is one code block
inside tools/lib/python/kdoc/latex_fonts.py that would cause a Sphinx
crash without such markups.
The series actually starts with 3 fixes:
- avoid "*" markups on indexes with deep> 3 to override text
- a variable rename to stop abusing doctree name
- don't rely on cwd to get Documentation/ location
patch 4 adds support to document scripts either at:
- tools/
- scripts/
patch 5 contains a CSS to better display autodoc html output.
For those who want to play with documentation, documenting a python
file is very simple. All it takes is to use:
.. automodule:: lib.python.<dir+name>
Usually, we add a couple of control members to it to adjust
the desired documentation scope (add/remove members, showing class
inheritance, showing members that currently don't have
docstrings, etc). That's why we're using:
.. automodule:: lib.python.kdoc.enrich_formatter
:members:
:show-inheritance:
:undoc-members:
(and similar) inside tools/kdoc*.rst.
autodoc allows filtering in/out members, file docstrings, etc.
It also allows documenting just some members or functions with
directives like:
..autofunction:
..automember:
Sphinx also has a helper script to generate .rst files with
documentation:
$ sphinx-apidoc -o foobar tools/lib/python/
which can be helpful to discover what should be documented,
although changes are needed to use what it produces.
Do some changes to:
- add missing documentation strings to vars;
- add a missing docstring;
- ensure that phases will end with a period.

The /proc/schedstat file output is standardized with version number.
Add support to record and raw dump v17 version layout.
Version 17 of schedstats removed 'lb_imbalance' field as it has no
significance anymore and instead added more relevant fields namely
'lb_imbalance_load', 'lb_imbalance_util', 'lb_imbalance_task' and
'lb_imbalance_misfit'.
The domain field prints the name of the corresponding sched domain from
this version onwards.

Define new, perf tool only, sample types and their layouts. Add logic
to parse /proc/schedstat, convert it to perf sample format and save
samples to perf.data file with `perf sched stats record` command.
Also add logic to read perf.data file, interpret schedstat samples and
print rawdump of samples with `perf script -D`.
Note that, /proc/schedstat file output is standardized with version
number. The patch supports v15 but older or newer version can be added
easily.

Implement bpf_stream_vprintk with an implicit bpf_prog_aux argument,
and remote bpf_stream_vprintk_impl from the kernel.
Update the selftests to use the new API with implicit argument.
bpf_stream_vprintk macro is changed to use the new bpf_stream_vprintk
kfunc, and the extern definition of bpf_stream_vprintk_impl is
replaced accordingly.

The parsing of jobserver options is done in a massive try: block that hides
problems and (perhaps) bugs. Split up that block and make the logic
explicit by moving the initial parsing of MAKEFLAGS out of that block. Add

Changeset 469c1c9eb6 ("kernel-doc: Issue warnings that were silently discarded")
didn't properly addressed the missing messages behavior, as
it was calling directly python logger low-level function,
instead of using the expected method to emit warnings.
Basically, there are two methods to log messages:
- self.config.log.warning() - This is the raw level to emit a
warning. It just writes the a message at stderr, via python
logging, as it is initialized as:
self.config.log = logging.getLogger("kernel-doc")
- self.config.warning() - This is where we actually consider a
message as a warning, properly incrementing error count.
Due to that, several parsing error messages are internally considered
as success, causing -Werror to not work on such messages.
While here, ensure that the last ignored entry will also be handled
by adding an extra check at the end of the parse handler.

This patch introduces binary search optimization for BTF type lookups
when the BTF instance contains sorted types.
The optimization significantly improves performance when searching for
types in large BTF instances with sorted types. For unsorted BTF, the

When there is no exclusion occurring from the cmds list - for example -
cmds contains ["read-vdso32"] and excludes contains ["archive"] - the
main loop completes with ci == cj == 0. In the original code the loop
processing the remaining elements in the list was conditional:
if (ci != cj) { ...}
So we end up in the assertion loop since ci < cmds->cnt and we
incorrectly try to assert the list elements to be NULL and fail with
the following error
help.c:104: exclude_cmds: Assertion `cmds->names[ci] == NULL' failed.
Fix this by moving the if (ci != cj) check inside of a broader loop.
If ci != cj, left shift the list elements, as before, and then
unconditionally advance the ci and cj indicies which also covers the
ci == cj case.

When using GNU Make's jobserver feature in kernel builds, a bug in MAKEFLAGS
propagation caused "--jobserver-auth=r,w" to reference an unintended file
descriptor. This led to infinite loops in jobserver-exec's os.read() calls
due to empty token.
My shell opened /etc/passwd for some reason without closing it, and as a
result, all child processes inherited this fd 3.
$ ls -l /proc/self/fd
total 0
lrwx------ 1 changbin changbin 64 Dec 25 13:03 0 -> /dev/pts/1
lrwx------ 1 changbin changbin 64 Dec 25 13:03 1 -> /dev/pts/1
lrwx------ 1 changbin changbin 64 Dec 25 13:03 2 -> /dev/pts/1
lr-x------ 1 changbin changbin 64 Dec 25 13:03 3 -> /etc/passwd
lr-x------ 1 changbin changbin 64 Dec 25 13:03 4 -> /proc/1421383/fd
In this case, the `make` should open a new file descriptor for jobserver
control, but clearly, it did not do so and instead still passed fd 3 as
"--jobserver-auth=3,4" in MAKEFLAGS. (The version of my gnu make is 4.3)
This update ensures robustness against invalid jobserver configurations,
even when `make` incorrectly pass non-pipe file descriptors.
* Rejecting empty reads to prevent infinite loops on EOF.
* Clearing `self.jobs` to avoid writing to incorrect files if invalid tokens
are detected.
* Printing detailed error messages to stderr to inform the user.

When dumping bitfield data, btf_dump_get_bitfield_value() reads data
based on the underlying type's size (t->size). However, it does not
verify that the provided data buffer (data_sz) is large enough to
contain these bytes.
If btf_dump__dump_type_data() is called with a buffer smaller than
the type's size, this leads to an out-of-bounds read. This was
confirmed by AddressSanitizer in the linked issue.
Fix this by ensuring we do not read past the provided data_sz limit.

Add libbpf support for the BPF_F_CPU flag for percpu maps by embedding the
cpu info into the high 32 bits of:
1. **flags**: bpf_map_lookup_elem_flags(), bpf_map__lookup_elem(),
bpf_map_update_elem() and bpf_map__update_elem()
2. **opts->elem_flags**: bpf_map_lookup_batch() and
bpf_map_update_batch()
And the flag can be BPF_F_ALL_CPUS, but cannot be
'BPF_F_CPU | BPF_F_ALL_CPUS'.
Behavior:
* If the flag is BPF_F_ALL_CPUS, the update is applied across all CPUs.
* If the flag is BPF_F_CPU, it updates value only to the specified CPU.
* If the flag is BPF_F_CPU, lookup value only from the specified CPU.
* lookup does not support BPF_F_ALL_CPUS.

Arena globals are currently placed at the beginning of the arena
by libbpf. This is convenient, but prevents users from reserving
guard pages in the beginning of the arena to identify NULL pointer
dereferences. Adjust the load logic to place the globals at the
end of the arena instead.
Also modify bpftool to set the arena pointer in the program's BPF
skeleton to point to the globals. Users now call bpf_map__initial_value()
to find the beginning of the arena mapping and use the arena pointer
in the skeleton to determine which part of the mapping holds the
arena globals and which part is free.

operations including GCS, MTE allocation tags, memcpy/memset,
register access, and SIMD operations.
- Add inverted data source filter (inv_data_src_filter) support to
exclude certain data sources.
- Improve documentation.
Vendor event updates:
- Intel: Updated event files for Sierra Forest, Panther Lake, Meteor
Lake, Lunar Lake, Granite Rapids, and others.
- Arm64: Added metrics for i.MX94 DDR PMU and Cortex-A720AE
definitions.
- RISC-V: Added JSON support for T-HEAD C920V2.
Misc:
- Improve pointer tracking in data type profiling. It'd give better
output when the variable is using container_of() to convert type.
- Annotation support for perf c2c report in TUI. Press 'a' key to
enter annotation view from cacheline browser window. This will show
which instruction is causing the cacheline contention.
- Lots of fixes and test coverage improvements!"

We have seen a number of issues like [1]; failures to deduplicate
key kernel data structures like task_struct. These are often hard
to debug from pahole even with verbose output, especially when
identity/equivalence checks fail deep in a nested struct comparison.
Here we add debug messages of the form
libbpf: STRUCT 'task_struct' size=2560 vlen=194 cand_id[54222] canon_id[102820] shallow-equal but not equiv for field#23 'sched_class': 0
These will be emitted during dedup from pahole when --verbose/-V
is specified. This greatly helps identify exactly where dedup
failures are experienced.

As we want to call Python code directly at the Sphinx extension,
convert get_feat.pl to Python.
The code was made to be (almost) bug-compatible with the Perl
version, with two exceptions:
1. Currently, Perl script outputs a wrong table if arch is set
to a non-existing value;
2. the ReST table output when --feat is used without --arch
has an invalid format, as the number of characters for the
table delimiters are wrong.
Those two bugs were fixed while testing the conversion.
Additionally, another caveat was solved:
the output when --feat is used without arch and the feature
doesn't exist doesn't contain an empty table anymore.

On hybrid platforms the CPU maps are often disjoint. Rather than copy
CPUs and trim, compute the number of common CPUs, if none early exit,
otherwise copy in an sorted order. This avoids memory allocation in
the disjoint case and avoids a second malloc and useless sort in the
previous trim cases.

Handle recursive typedefs in BTF deduplication
Pahole fails to encode BTF for some Go projects (e.g. Kubernetes and
Podman) due to recursive type definitions that create reference loops
not representable in C. These recursive typedefs trigger a failure in
the BTF deduplication algorithm.
This patch extends btf_dedup_ref_type() to properly handle potential
recursion for BTF_KIND_TYPEDEF, similar to how recursion is already
handled for BTF_KIND_STRUCT. This allows pahole to successfully
generate BTF for Go binaries using recursive types without impacting
existing C-based workflows.

For v4 instruction set LLVM is allowed to generate indirect jumps for
switch statements and for 'goto *rX' assembly. Every such a jump will
be accompanied by necessary metadata, e.g. (`llvm-objdump -Sr ...`):
0: r2 = 0x0 ll
0000000000000030: R_BPF_64_64 BPF.JT.0.0
Here BPF.JT.1.0 is a symbol residing in the .jumptables section:
Symbol table:
4: 0000000000000000 240 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 4 BPF.JT.0.0
The -bpf-min-jump-table-entries llvm option may be used to control the
minimal size of a switch which will be converted to an indirect jumps.

Rename bpf_stream_vprintk() to bpf_stream_vprintk_impl().
This makes bpf_stream_vprintk() follow the already established "_impl"
suffix-based naming convention for kfuncs with the bpf_prog_aux
argument provided by the verifier implicitly. This convention will be
taken advantage of with the upcoming KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS feature to
preserve backwards compatibility to BPF programs.

When creating multi-split BTF we correctly set the start string offset
to be the size of the base string section plus the base BTF start
string offset; the latter is needed for multi-split BTF since the
offset is non-zero there.
Unfortunately the BTF parsing case needed that logic and it was
missed.

Commit be2f2d1680 ("libbpf: Deprecate bpf_program__load() API") marked
bpf_program__load() as deprecated starting with libbpf v0.6. And later
in commit 146bf811f5 ("libbpf: remove most other deprecated high-level

related old high-level APIs.
This patch update the comment in bpf_program__set_attach_target() to

In the elf_sec_data() function, the input parameter 'scn' will be
evaluated. If it is NULL, then it will directly return NULL. Therefore,
the return value of the elf_sec_data() function already takes into
account the case where the input parameter scn is NULL. Therefore,
subsequently, the code only needs to check whether the return value of
the elf_sec_data() function is NULL.

Instead of preserving mode, timestamp, and owner, for the object files

When installing as user, --preserve=ownership doesn't work anyway. This

The recent sha256 patch uses a GCC pragma to suppress compile errors for
a packed struct, but omits a needed pragma (see related link) and thus
still raises errors: (e.g. on GCC 12.3 armhf)

153 | struct __packed_u32 { __u32 __val; } __attribute__((packed));

Resolve by adding the GCC diagnostic pragma to ignore "-Wattributes".

linux/unaligned.h include dependency is causing issues for libbpf's
Github mirror due to {get,put}_unaligned_be32() usage.
So get rid of it by implementing custom variants of those macros that
will work both in kernel and Github mirror repos.
Also switch round_up() to roundup(), as the former is not available in
Github mirror (and is just a subtly more specific variant of roundup()
anyways).
