2025-10-28tools: ynl: rework the string representation of NlErrorJakub Kicinski
In early days of YNL development dumping the NlMsg on errors was quite useful, as the library itself could have been buggy. These days increasingly the NlMsg is just taking up screen space and means nothing to a typical user. Try to format the errors more in line with how YNL C formats its errors strings. Before: $ ynl --family ethtool --do channels-set --json '{}' Netlink error: Invalid argument nl_len = 44 (28) nl_flags = 0x300 nl_type = 2 error: -22 extack: {'miss-type': 'header'} $ ynl --family ethtool --do channels-set --json '{..., "tx-count": 999}' Netlink error: Invalid argument nl_len = 88 (72) nl_flags = 0x300 nl_type = 2 error: -22 extack: {'msg': 'requested channel count exceeds maximum', 'bad-attr': '.tx-count'} After: $ ynl --family ethtool --do channels-set --json '{}' Netlink error: Invalid argument {'miss-type': 'header'} $ ynl --family ethtool --do channels-set --json '{..., "tx-count": 999}' Netlink error: requested channel count exceeds maximum: Invalid argument {'bad-attr': '.tx-count'} Reviewed-by: Donald Hunter <donald.hunter@gmail.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251027192958.2058340-2-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

function. In the elf_sec_data() function, the input parameter 'scn' will be evaluated. If it is NULL, then it will directly return NULL.

Building the tty selftests generates the tty_tiocsti_test binary, which appears as untracked file in git. As mentioned in the kselftest documentation, all the generated objects must be placed inside .gitignore. This prevents the generated objects from accidentally getting staged and keeps the working tree clean. Add the tty_tiocsti_test binary to .gitignore to avoid accidentally staging the build artifact and maintain a clean working tree.

2025-10-27bpf: Add overwrite mode for BPF ring bufferXu Kuohai
When the BPF ring buffer is full, a new event cannot be recorded until one or more old events are consumed to make enough space for it. In cases such as fault diagnostics, where recent events are more useful than older ones, this mechanism may lead to critical events being lost. So add overwrite mode for BPF ring buffer to address it. In this mode, the new event overwrites the oldest event when the buffer is full. The basic idea is as follows: 1. producer_pos tracks the next position to record new event. When there is enough free space, producer_pos is simply advanced by producer to make space for the new event. 2. To avoid waiting for consumer when the buffer is full, a new variable, overwrite_pos, is introduced for producer. It points to the oldest event committed in the buffer. It is advanced by producer to discard one or more oldest events to make space for the new event when the buffer is full. 3. pending_pos tracks the oldest event to be committed. pending_pos is never passed by producer_pos, so multiple producers never write to the same position at the same time. The following example diagrams show how it works in a 4096-byte ring buffer. 1. At first, {producer,overwrite,pending,consumer}_pos are all set to 0. 0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ ^ | | producer_pos = 0 overwrite_pos = 0 pending_pos = 0 consumer_pos = 0 2. Now reserve a 512-byte event A. There is enough free space, so A is allocated at offset 0. And producer_pos is advanced to 512, the end of A. Since A is not submitted, the BUSY bit is set. 0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | | A | | | [BUSY] | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ ^ ^ | | | | | producer_pos = 512 | overwrite_pos = 0 pending_pos = 0 consumer_pos = 0 3. Reserve event B, size 1024. B is allocated at offset 512 with BUSY bit set, and producer_pos is advanced to the end of B. 0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | A | B | | | [BUSY] | [BUSY] | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ ^ ^ | | | | | producer_pos = 1536 | overwrite_pos = 0 pending_pos = 0 consumer_pos = 0 4. Reserve event C, size 2048. C is allocated at offset 1536, and producer_pos is advanced to 3584. 0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | | A | B | C | | | [BUSY] | [BUSY] | [BUSY] | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ ^ ^ | | | | | producer_pos = 3584 | overwrite_pos = 0 pending_pos = 0 consumer_pos = 0 5. Submit event A. The BUSY bit of A is cleared. B becomes the oldest event to be committed, so pending_pos is advanced to 512, the start of B. 0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | | A | B | C | | | | [BUSY] | [BUSY] | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ ^ ^ ^ | | | | | | | pending_pos = 512 producer_pos = 3584 | overwrite_pos = 0 consumer_pos = 0 6. Submit event B. The BUSY bit of B is cleared, and pending_pos is advanced to the start of C, which is now the oldest event to be committed. 0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | | A | B | C | | | | | [BUSY] | | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ ^ ^ ^ | | | | | | | pending_pos = 1536 producer_pos = 3584 | overwrite_pos = 0 consumer_pos = 0 7. Reserve event D, size 1536 (3 * 512). There are 2048 bytes not being written between producer_pos (currently 3584) and pending_pos, so D is allocated at offset 3584, and producer_pos is advanced by 1536 (from 3584 to 5120). Since event D will overwrite all bytes of event A and the first 512 bytes of event B, overwrite_pos is advanced to the start of event C, the oldest event that is not overwritten. 0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | | D End | | C | D Begin| | [BUSY] | | [BUSY] | [BUSY] | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ ^ ^ ^ | | | | | pending_pos = 1536 | | overwrite_pos = 1536 | | | producer_pos=5120 | consumer_pos = 0 8. Reserve event E, size 1024. Although there are 512 bytes not being written between producer_pos and pending_pos, E cannot be reserved, as it would overwrite the first 512 bytes of event C, which is still being written. 9.

2025-10-27tools: ynl: fix string attribute length to include null terminatorPetr Oros
The ynl_attr_put_str() function was not including the null terminator in the attribute length calculation. This caused kernel to reject CTRL_CMD_GETFAMILY requests with EINVAL: "Attribute failed policy validation". For a 4-character family name like "dpll": - Sent: nla_len=8 (4 byte header + 4 byte string without null) - Expected: nla_len=9 (4 byte header + 5 byte string with null) The bug was introduced in commit 15d2540e0d62 ("tools: ynl: check for overflow of constructed messages") when refactoring from stpcpy() to strlen(). The original code correctly included the null terminator: end = stpcpy(ynl_attr_data(attr), str); attr->nla_len = NLA_HDRLEN + NLA_ALIGN(end - (char *)ynl_attr_data(attr)); Since stpcpy() returns a pointer past the null terminator, the length included it. The refactored version using strlen() omitted the +1. The fix also removes NLA_ALIGN() from nla_len calculation, since nla_len should contain actual attribute length, not aligned length. Alignment is only for calculating next attribute position. This makes the code consistent with ynl_attr_put(). CTRL_ATTR_FAMILY_NAME uses NLA_NUL_STRING policy which requires null terminator. Kernel validates with memchr() and rejects if not found.

Dynptr currently caps size and offset at 24 bits, which isn’t sufficient for file-backed use cases; even 32 bits can be limiting. Refactor dynptr helpers/kfuncs to use 64-bit size and offset, ensuring consistency across the APIs. This change does not affect internals of xdp, skb or other dynptrs, which continue to behave as before. Also it does not break binary compatibility. The widening enables large-file access support via dynptr, implemented in the next patches.

2025-10-27tools/nolibc: x86: fix section mismatch caused by asm "mem*" functionsWilly Tarreau
I recently got occasional build failures at -Os or -Oz that would always involve waitpid(), where the assembler would complain about this: init.s: Error: .size expression for waitpid.constprop.0 does not evaluate to a constant And without -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables it could also spit such errors: init.s:836: Error: CFI instruction used without previous .cfi_startproc init.s:838: Error: .cfi_endproc without corresponding .cfi_startproc init.s: Error: open CFI at the end of file; missing .cfi_endproc directive A trimmed down reproducer is as simple as this: int main(int argc, char **argv) { int ret, status; if (argc == 0) ret = waitpid(-1, &status, 0); else ret = waitpid(-1, &status, 0); return status; } It produces the following asm code on x86_64: .text .section .text.nolibc_memmove_memcpy .weak memmove .weak memcpy memmove: memcpy: movq %rdx, %rcx (...) retq .section .text.nolibc_memset .weak memset memset: xchgl %eax, %esi movq %rdx, %rcx pushq %rdi rep stosb popq %rax retq .type waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0, @function waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0: subq $8, %rsp (...) jmp *.L5(,%rax,8) .section .rodata .align 8 .align 4 .L5: .quad .L10 (...) .quad .L4 .text .L10: (...) .cfi_def_cfa_offset 8 ret .cfi_endproc .LFE273: .size waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0, .-waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0 It's a bit dense, but here's the explanation: the compiler has emitted a ".text" statement because it knows it's working in the .text section. Then, our hand-written asm code for the mem* functions forced the section to .text.something without the compiler knowing about it, so it thinks the code is still being emitted for .text. As such, without any .section statement, the waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0 label is in fact placed in the previously created section, here .text.nolibc_memset. The waitpid() function involves a switch/case statement that can be turned to a jump table, which is what the compiler does with the .rodata section, and after that it restores .text, which is no longer the previous .text.nolibc_memset section. Then the CFI statements cross a section, so does the .size calculation, which explains the error. While a first approach consisting in placing an explicit ".text" at the end of these functions was verified to work, it's still unreliable as it depends on what the compiler remembers having emitted previously. A better approach is to replace the ".section" with ".pushsection", and place a ".popsection" at the end, so that these code blocks are agnostic to where they're placed relative to other blocks.

Commit b8308511f6e0 bumped the max events to 1024 but this results in BPF verifier issues if the number of command line events is too large. Workaround this by: 1) moving the constants to a header file to share between BPF and perf C code, 2) testing that the maximum number of events doesn't cause BPF verifier issues in debug builds, 3) lower the max events from 1024 to 128, 4) in perf stat, if there are more events than the BPF counters can support then disable BPF counter usage.

2dbbdeda77a6 ("sched_ext: Fix scx_bpf_dsq_insert() backward binary compatibility") renamed the new bool-returning variant to scx_bpf_dsq_insert___v2 in the kernel. However, libbpf currently only strips ___SUFFIX on the BPF side, not on kernel symbols, so the compat wrapper couldn't match the kernel kfunc and would always fall back to the old variant even when the new one was available. Add an extra ___compat suffix as a workaround - libbpf strips one suffix on the BPF side leaving ___v2, which then matches the kernel kfunc directly. In the future when libbpf strips all suffixes on both sides, all suffixes can be dropped.

Convert to if-else sentences to mute the enumeration value warning, which can avoid build failures whenever the lib is updated. No functional change.

2025-10-23perf annotate: Fix Clang build by adding block in switch caseJames Clark
Clang and GCC disagree with what constitutes a "declaration after statement". GCC allows declarations in switch cases without an extra block, as long as it's immediately after the label. Clang does not. Unfortunately this is the case even in the latest versions of both compilers. The only option that makes them behave in the same way is -Wpedantic, which can't be enabled in Perf because of the number of warnings it generates. Add a block to fix the Clang build, which is the only thing we can do. Fixes the build error: ui/browsers/annotate.c:999:4: error: expected expression struct annotation_line *al = NULL; ui/browsers/annotate.c:1008:4: error: use of undeclared identifier 'al' al = annotated_source__get_line(notes->src, offset); ui/browsers/annotate.c:1009:24: error: use of undeclared identifier 'al' browser->curr_hot = al ? &al->rb_node : NULL; ui/browsers/annotate.c:1009:30: error: use of undeclared identifier 'al' browser->curr_hot = al ? &al->rb_node : NULL; ui/browsers/annotate.c:1000:8: error: mixing declarations and code is incompatible with standards before C99 [-Werror,-Wdeclaration-after-statement] s64 offset = annotate_browser__curr_hot_offset(browser); Fixes: ad83f3b7155d ("perf c2c annotate: Start from the contention line") Signed-off-by: James Clark <james.clark@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

retsnoop's build on powerpc (ppc64le) architecture ([0]) failed due to wrong definition of PT_REGS_SP() macro. Looking at powerpc's implementation of stack unwinding in perf_callchain_user_64() clearly shows that stack pointer register is gpr[1]. Fix libbpf's definition of __PT_SP_REG for powerpc to fix all this.

2025-10-23perf build: Fix perf build issues with fixdepJosh Poimboeuf
Commit a808a2b35f66 ("tools build: Fix fixdep dependencies") broke the perf build ("make -C tools/perf") by introducing two inadvertent conflicts: 1) tools/build/Makefile includes tools/build/Makefile.include, which defines a phony 'fixdep' target. This conflicts with the $(FIXDEP) file target in tools/build/Makefile when OUTPUT is empty, causing make to report duplicate recipes for the same target. 2) The FIXDEP variable in tools/build/Makefile conflicts with the previously existing one in tools/perf/Makefile.perf. Remove the unnecessary include of tools/build/Makefile.include from tools/build/Makefile, and rename the FIXDEP variable in tools/perf/Makefile.perf to FIXDEP_BUILT.
