Pull coccinelle updates from Julia Lawall:
 "Remove some semantic patches and remove a maintainer.

  Qing Wang <wangqing@vivo.com> reported that fen.cocci mostly finds
  false positives, so it is dropped.
  scripts/coccinelle/iterators/for_each_child.cocci also subsumes it, in
  a more correct way.

  Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> reported that bugon.cocci mostly
  gives false positives. It is an old script and was designed to be
  inaccurate to maximally cover problems, but most of what it is useful
  for has been done already.

  Gilles Muller passed away and is thus dropped from the maintainers
  list"

4d66020dce Merge tag 'trace-v5.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "New:

   - The Real Time Linux Analysis (RTLA) tool is added to the tools
     directory.

   - Can safely filter on user space pointers with: field.ustring ~
     "match-string"

   - eprobes can now be filtered like any other event.

   - trace_marker(_raw) now uses stream_open() to allow multiple threads
     to safely write to it. Note, this could possibly break existing
     user space, but we will not know until we hear about it, and then
     can revert the change if need be.

   - New field in events to display when bottom halfs are disabled.

   - Sorting of the ftrace functions are now done at compile time
     instead of at bootup.

  Infrastructure changes to support future efforts:

   - Added __rel_loc type for trace events. Similar to __data_loc but
     the offset to the dynamic data is based off of the location of the
     descriptor and not the beginning of the event. Needed for user
     defined events.

   - Some simplification of event trigger code.

   - Make synthetic events process its callback better to not hinder
     other event callbacks that are registered. Needed for user defined
     events.

  And other small fixes and cleanups"

72b3942a17 scripts: ftrace - move the sort-processing in ftrace_init
When the kernel starts, the initialization of ftrace takes
up a portion of the time (approximately 6~8ms) to sort mcount
addresses. We can save this time by moving mcount-sorting to
compile time.

 - Get rid of all the .fixup sections because this generates

 - Add Straight Line Speculation mitigation support which uses a new

   indirect branch in order to block speculation after them. Reportedly,
   CPUs do speculate behind such insns.

4eb1782eaa recordmcount.pl: fix typo in s390 mcount regex
Commit 85bf17b28f ("recordmcount.pl: look for jgnop instruction as well
as bcrl on s390") added a new alternative mnemonic for the existing brcl
instruction. This is required for the combination old gcc version (pre 9.0)
and binutils since version 2.37.
However at the same time this commit introduced a typo, replacing brcl with
bcrl. As a result no mcount locations are detected anymore with old gcc
versions (pre 9.0) and binutils before version 2.37.
Fix this by using the correct mnemonic again.

deaee2704a scripts/gdb: lx-dmesg: read records individually
For the gdb command lx-dmesg, the entire descriptor, info, and text
data regions are read into memory before printing any records. For
large kernel log buffers, this not only causes a huge delay before
seeing any records, but it may also lead to python errors of too
much memory allocation.

Rather than reading in all these regions in advance, read them as
needed and only read the regions for the particular record that is
being printed.

The gdb macro "dmesg" in Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/gdbmacros.txt
already prints out the kernel log buffer like this.

85bf17b28f recordmcount.pl: look for jgnop instruction as well as bcrl on s390
On s390, recordmcount.pl is looking for "bcrl 0,<xxx>" instructions in
the objdump -d outpout. However since binutils 2.37, objdump -d
display "jgnop <xxx>" for the same instruction. Update the
mcount_regex so that it accepts both.

116af35e38 kcsan: Ignore GCC 11+ warnings about TSan runtime support
GCC 11 has introduced a new warning option, -Wtsan [1], to warn about
unsupported operations in the TSan runtime. But KCSAN != TSan runtime,
so none of the warnings apply.

[1] https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-11.1.0/gcc/Warning-Options.html

Ignore the warnings.

Currently the warning only fires in the test for __atomic_thread_fence():

kernel/kcsan/kcsan_test.c: In function ‘test_atomic_builtins’:
kernel/kcsan/kcsan_test.c:1234:17: warning: ‘atomic_thread_fence’ is not supported with ‘-fsanitize=thread’ [-Wtsan]
 1234 |                 __atomic_thread_fence(__ATOMIC_SEQ_CST);
      |                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

which exists to ensure the KCSAN runtime keeps supporting the builtin
instrumentation.
