We appear to have a gap in our process docs. We go into detail
on how to contribute code to the kernel, and how to be a subsystem
maintainer. I can't find any docs directed towards the thousands
of small scale maintainers, like folks maintaining a single driver
or a single network protocol.
Document our expectations and best practices. I'm hoping this doc
will be particularly useful to set expectations with HW vendors.

only in the first taking a pointer to a page and the second taking two

We just sorted the entries and fields last release, so just out of a
perverse sense of curiosity, I decided to see if we can keep things
ordered for even just one release.
The answer is "No. No we cannot".
I suggest that all kernel developers will need weekly training sessions,
involving a lot of Big Bird and Sesame Street. And at the yearly
maintainer summit, we will all sing the alphabet song together.
I doubt I will keep doing this. At some point "perverse sense of

despair.

fork: lock VMAs of the parent process when forking
When forking a child process, the parent write-protects anonymous pages
and COW-shares them with the child being forked using copy_present_pte().
We must not take any concurrent page faults on the source vma's as they
are being processed, as we expect both the vma and the pte's behind it
to be stable. For example, the anon_vma_fork() expects the parents
vma->anon_vma to not change during the vma copy.
A concurrent page fault on a page newly marked read-only by the page
copy might trigger wp_page_copy() and a anon_vma_prepare(vma) on the
source vma, defeating the anon_vma_clone() that wasn't done because the
parent vma originally didn't have an anon_vma, but we now might end up
copying a pte entry for a page that has one.
Before the per-vma lock based changes, the mmap_lock guaranteed
exclusion with concurrent page faults. But now we need to do a
vma_start_write() to make sure no concurrent faults happen on this vma
while it is being processed.
This fix can potentially regress some fork-heavy workloads. Kernel
build time did not show noticeable regression on a 56-core machine while
a stress test mapping 10000 VMAs and forking 5000 times in a tight loop
shows ~5% regression. If such fork time regression is unacceptable,
disabling CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK should restore its performance. Further
optimizations are possible if this regression proves to be problematic.

mmap_region adds a newly created VMA into VMA tree and might modify it
afterwards before dropping the mmap_lock. This poses a problem for page
faults handled under per-VMA locks because they don't take the mmap_lock
and can stumble on this VMA while it's still being modified. Currently
this does not pose a problem since post-addition modifications are done
only for file-backed VMAs, which are not handled under per-VMA lock.
However, once support for handling file-backed page faults with per-VMA
locks is added, this will become a race.
Fix this by write-locking the VMA before inserting it into the VMA tree.
Other places where a new VMA is added into VMA tree do not modify it
after the insertion, so do not need the same locking.

With recent changes necessitating mmap_lock to be held for write while
expanding a stack, per-VMA locks should follow the same rules and be
write-locked to prevent page faults into the VMA being expanded. Add
the necessary locking.

A few late arriving patches that missed the initial pull request.
It's mostly bug fixes (the dt-bindings is a fix for the initial pull).

The debugfs_create_dir function returns ERR_PTR in case of error, and the
only correct way to check if an error occurred is 'IS_ERR' inline function.
This patch will replace the null-comparison with IS_ERR.

and skip if the vmlinux has no BTF.
- Replace deprecated clang -target xxx option by --target=xxx.

- Add --output option to save the data to a file not to be interfered
by other debug messages.
Test:
- Fix event parsing test on ARM where there's no raw PMU nor supports
PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_HW_TYPE.
- Update the lock contention test case for CSV output.
- Fix a segfault in the daemon command test.
Vendor events (JSON):
- Add has_event() to check if the given event is available on system
at runtime. On Intel machines, some transaction events may not be
present when TSC extensions are disabled.
- Update Intel event metrics.
Misc:
- Sort symbols by name using an external array of pointers instead of
a rbtree node in the symbol. This will save 16-bytes or 24-bytes
per symbol whether the sorting is actually requested or not.
- Fix unwinding DWARF callstacks using libdw when --symfs option is
used.
