2026-02-04tools/power turbostat: Rename "LLCkRPS" column to "LLCMRPS"Len Brown
The purpose of the LLC References per Second LLC column is to qualify the significance of the LLC%hit column. If RPS is high, then the hit rate matters. If RPS is low, then the hit rate is not significant. Remove unnecessary and distracting precision in the RPS column by dividing my a million rather than by a thousand.

2026-02-04cxl: Enable AMD Zen5 address translation using ACPI PRMTRobert Richter
Add AMD Zen5 support for address translation. Zen5 systems may be configured to use 'Normalized addresses'. Then, host physical addresses (HPA) are different from their system physical addresses (SPA). The endpoint has its own physical address space and an incoming HPA is already converted to the device's physical address (DPA). Thus it has interleaving disabled and CXL endpoints are programmed passthrough (DPA == HPA). Host Physical Addresses (HPAs) need to be translated from the endpoint to its CXL host bridge, esp. to identify the endpoint's root decoder and region's address range. ACPI Platform Runtime Mechanism (PRM) provides a handler to translate the DPA to its SPA. This is documented in: AMD Family 1Ah Models 00h–0Fh and Models 10h–1Fh ACPI v6.5 Porting Guide, Publication # 58088 https://www.amd.com/en/search/documentation/hub.html With Normalized Addressing this PRM handler must be used to translate an HPA of an endpoint to its SPA. Do the following to implement AMD Zen5 address translation: Introduce a new file core/atl.c to handle ACPI PRM specific address translation code. Naming is loosely related to the kernel's AMD Address Translation Library (CONFIG_AMD_ATL) but implementation does not depend on it, nor it is vendor specific. Use Kbuild and Kconfig options respectively to enable the code depending on architecture and platform options. AMD Zen5 systems support the ACPI PRM CXL Address Translation firmware call (see ACPI v6.5 Porting Guide, Address Translation - CXL DPA to System Physical Address). Firmware enables the PRM handler if the platform has address translation implemented. Check firmware and kernel support of ACPI PRM using the specific GUID. On success enable address translation by setting up the earlier introduced root port callback, see function cxl_prm_setup_translation(). Setup is done in cxl_setup_prm_address_translation(), it is the only function that needs to be exported. For low level PRM firmware calls, use the ACPI framework. Identify the region's interleaving ways by inspecting the address ranges. Also determine the interleaving granularity using the address translation callback. Note that the position of the chunk from one interleaving block to the next may vary and thus cannot be considered constant. Address offsets larger than the interleaving block size cannot be used to calculate the granularity. Thus, probe the granularity using address translation for various HPAs in the same interleaving block.

Add stress tests for BPF timers that run in NMI context using perf_event programs attached to PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES. The tests cover three scenarios: - nmi_race: Tests concurrent timer start and async cancel operations - nmi_update: Tests updating a map element (effectively deleting and inserting new for array map) from within a timer callback - nmi_cancel: Tests timer self-cancellation attempt. A common test_common() helper is used to share timer setup logic across all test modes. The tests spawn multiple threads in a child process to generate perf events, which trigger the BPF programs in NMI context. Hit counters verify that the NMI code paths were actually exercised.

2026-02-03perf kvm stat: Remove use of the arch directoryIan Rogers
`perf kvm stat` supports record and report options. By using the arch directory a report for a different machine type cannot be supported. Move the kvm-stat code out of the arch directory and into util/kvm-stat-arch following the pattern of perf-regs and dwarf-regs. Avoid duplicate symbols by renaming functions to have the architecture name within them. For global variables, wrap them in an architecture specific function. Selecting the architecture to use with `perf kvm stat` is selected by EM_HOST, ie no different than before the change. Later the ELF machine can be determined from the session or a header feature (ie EM_HOST at the time of the record). The build and #define HAVE_KVM_STAT_SUPPORT is now redundant so remove across Makefiles and in the build. Opportunistically constify architectural structs and arrays.

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.

2026-02-03bpf: Relax scalar id equivalence for state pruningPuranjay Mohan
Scalar register IDs are used by the verifier to track relationships between registers and enable bounds propagation across those relationships. Once an ID becomes singular (i.e. only a single register/stack slot carries it), it can no longer contribute to bounds propagation and effectively becomes stale. The previous commit makes the verifier clear such ids before caching the state. When comparing the current and cached states for pruning, these stale IDs can cause technically equivalent states to be considered different and thus prevent pruning. For example, in the selftest added in the next commit, two registers - r6 and r7 are not linked to any other registers and get cached with id=0, in the current state, they are both linked to each other with id=A. Before this commit, check_scalar_ids would give temporary ids to r6 and r7 (say tid1 and tid2) and then check_ids() would map tid1->A, and when it would see tid2->A, it would not consider these state equivalent. Relax scalar ID equivalence by treating rold->id == 0 as "independent": if the old state did not rely on any ID relationships for a register, then any ID/linking present in the current state only adds constraints and is always safe to accept for pruning. Implement this by returning true immediately in check_scalar_ids() when old_id == 0. Maintain correctness for the opposite direction (old_id != 0 && cur_id == 0) by still allocating a temporary ID for cur_id == 0. This avoids incorrectly allowing multiple independent current registers (id==0) to satisfy a single linked old ID during mapping.

If perf is built with LIBCAPSTONE_DLOPEN=1, support dlopen-ing libcapstone.so and then calling the necessary functions by looking them up using dlsym. The types come from capstone.h which means the libcapstone feature check needs to pass, and NO_CAPSTONE=1 hasn't been defined. This will cause the definition of HAVE_LIBCAPSTONE_SUPPORT. Earlier versions of this code tried to declare the necessary capstone.h constants and structs, but they weren't stable and caused breakages across libcapstone releases.

2026-02-02selftests: drv-net: rss: validate min RSS table sizeJakub Kicinski
Add a test which checks that the RSS table is at least 4x the max queue count supported by the device. The original RSS spec from Microsoft stated that the RSS indirection table should be 2 to 8 times the CPU count, presumably assuming queue per CPU. If the CPU count is not a power of two, however, a power-of-2 table 2x larger than queue count results in a 33% traffic imbalance. Validate that the indirection table is at least 4x the queue count. This lowers the imbalance to 16% which empirically appears to be more acceptable to memcache-like workloads.

2026-02-02selftests/sched_ext: Fix init_enable_count flakinessTejun Heo
The init_enable_count test is flaky. The test forks 1024 children before attaching the scheduler to verify that existing tasks get ops.init_task() called. The children were using sleep(1) before exiting. 7900aa699c34 ("sched_ext: Fix cgroup exit ordering by moving sched_ext_free() to finish_task_switch()") changed when tasks are removed from scx_tasks - previously when the task_struct was freed, now immediately in finish_task_switch() when the task dies. Before the commit, pre-forked children would linger on scx_tasks until freed regardless of when they exited, so the scheduler would always see them during iteration. The sleep(1) was unnecessary. After the commit, children are removed as soon as they die. The sleep(1) masks the problem in most cases but the test becomes flaky depending on timing. Fix by synchronizing properly using a pipe. All children block on read() and the parent signals them to exit by closing the write end after attaching the scheduler. The children are auto-reaped so there's no need to wait on them.

Documentation builds were using "-q" for a long time, but sometimes it is nice to see the Sphinx progress, without increasing build verbosity - which would also turn on kernel-doc verbosity. Instead of doing that, let's parse the sphinx-build already-existing -v: each time it is used, it increases the verbosity level. With that, if the default is to use -q, a single -v will disable quiet mode. Passing more -v will keep increasing its verbosity.
