Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Remove a redundant IS_ERR() check
trace_pipe_open() already checks for IS_ERR() and does it again in
the return path. Remove the return check.
- Export seq_buf_putmem_hex() to allow kunit tests against them
To add Kunit tests on seq_buf_putmem_hex(), it needs to be exported.
- Replace strcat() and strcpy() with seq_buf() logic
The code for synthetic events uses a series of strcat() and strcpy()
which can be error prone. Replace them with seq_buf() logic that does
all the necessary bound checking.
- Add a lockdep rcu_is_watching() to trace_##event##_enabled() call
The trace_##event##_enabled() is a static branch that is true if the
"event" is enabled. But this can hide bugs if this logic is in a
location where RCU is disabled and not "watching". It would only
trigger if lockdep is enabled and the event is enabled.
Add a "rcu_is_watching()" warning if lockdep is enabled in that
helper function to trigger regardless if the event is enabled or not.
- Remove the local variable in the trace_printk() macro
For name space integrity, remove the _______STR variable in the
trace_printk() macro for using the sizeof() macro directly.
- Use guard()s for the trace_recursion_record.c file
- Fix typo in a comment of eventfs_callback() kerneldoc
- Use trace_call__##event() in events within trace_##event##_enabled()
A couple of events are called within an if block guarded by
trace_##event##_enabled(). That is a static key that is only enabled
when the event is enabled. The trace_call_##event() calls the
tracepoint code directly without adding a redundant static key for
that check.
- Allow perf to read synthetic events
Currently, perf does not have the ability to enable a synthetic
event. If it does, it will either cause a kernel warning or error
with "No such device". Synthetic events are not much different than
kprobes and perf can handle fine with a few modifications.
- Replace printk(KERN_WARNING ...) with pr_warn()
- Replace krealloc() on an array with krealloc_array()
- Fix README file path name for synthetic events
- Change tracing_map tracing_map_array to use a flexible array
Instead of allocating a separate pointer to hold the pages field of
tracing_map_array, allocate the pages field as a flexible array when
allocating the structure.
- Fold trace_iterator_increment() into trace_find_next_entry_inc()
The function trace_iterator_increment() was only used by
trace_find_next_entry_inc(). It's not big enough to be a helper
function for one user. Fold it into its caller.
- Make field_var_str field a flexible array of hist_elt_data
Instead of allocating a separate pointer for the field_var_str array
of the hist_elt_data structure, allocate it as a flexible array when
allocating the structure.
- Disable KCOV for trace_irqsoff.c
Like trace_preemptirq.c, trace_irqsoff.c has code that will crash
when KCOV is enabled on ARM. The irqsoff tracing can be called on ARM
because the irqsoff tracing code can be run from early interrupt code
and produce coverage unrelated to syscall inputs.
- Fix warning in __unregister_ftrace_function() called by perf
Perf calls unregister_ftrace_function() without checking if its
ftrace_ops has already been unregistered. There's an error path where
on clean up it will unregister the ftrace_ops even if it wasn't
registered and causes a warning.

strncpy() has been a persistent source of bugs due to its ambiguous
intended usage and frequently counter-intuitive semantics: it may not
NUL-terminate the destination, and it unconditionally zero-pads to the
full length, which isn't always needed. All former callers have been
migrated[1] to:
- strscpy() for NUL-terminated destinations
- strscpy_pad() for NUL-terminated destinations needing zero-padding
- strtomem_pad() for non-NUL-terminated fixed-width fields
- memcpy_and_pad() for bounded copies with explicit padding
- memcpy() for known-length copies
Remove the generic implementation, its declaration, the FORTIFY_SOURCE
wrapper, and associated tests.

Increment the incoming FLB refcount in liveupdate_flb_get_incoming() so
that the FLB structure cannot be freed while the caller is actively using
it. Add an additional liveupdate_flb_put_incoming() function so the
caller can explicitly indicate when it is done using the FLB data.
During a Live Update, a subsystem might need to hold onto the incoming
File-Lifecycle-Bound (FLB) data for an extended period, such as during
device enumeration. Incrementing the reference count guarantees that the
data remains valid and accessible until the subsystem releases it,
preventing future use-after-free bugs.

uuid_kunit currently exercises only guid_parse() and uuid_parse() (plus
their invalid-input paths). The four random generators exported from
lib/uuid.c -- generate_random_uuid(), generate_random_guid(), uuid_gen()
and guid_gen() -- have no direct kunit coverage.
Random output cannot be compared against a fixed expected value, but RFC
4122 section 4.4 specifies two invariants that any version-4 random
UUID/GUID must satisfy:
- version 4 in the high nibble of the version byte
(byte 6 in the wire uuid_t layout, byte 7 in the byte-swapped
guid_t layout);
- variant DCE 1.1 (binary 10x) in the high bits of byte 8.
Add four test cases that invoke each generator several times and verify
these bit patterns hold. The same checks catch a regression in either the
mask/OR sequence in the generators or the layout constants. Run the loop
a handful of times to cover the small but non-zero chance that an unmasked
random byte happens to satisfy the version/variant pattern by accident on
a single call.

Unable to handle kernel paging request ...
The testsuite defines several kprobes and kretprobes as static variables
that are preserved across test runs.
After register_kprobe and unregister_kprobe, a kprobe contains some
leftover data that must be cleared before the kprobe can be registered
again. The tests are setting symbol_name to define the probe location.
Address and flags must be cleared.
The existing code clears some of the probes between subsequent tests, but
not between two test runs. The leftover data from a previous test run
makes the registrations fail in the next run.
Move the cleanups for all kprobes into kprobes_test_init, this function
is called before each single test (including the first test of a test
run).

Pull RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley:
"There is one significant change outside arch/riscv in this pull
request: the addition of a set of KUnit tests for strlen(), strnlen(),
and strrchr().
Otherwise, the most notable changes are to add some RISC-V-specific
string function implementations, to remove XIP kernel support, to add
hardware error exception handling, and to optimize our runtime
unaligned access speed testing.
A few comments on the motivation for removing XIP support. It's been
broken in the RISC-V kernel for months. The code is not easy to
maintain. Furthermore, for XIP support to truly be useful for RISC-V,
we think that compile-time feature switches would need to be added for
many of the RISC-V ISA features and microarchitectural properties that
are currently implemented with runtime patching. No one has stepped
forward to take responsibility for that work, so many of us think it's
best to remove it until clear use cases and champions emerge.
Summary:
- Add Kunit correctness testing and microbenchmarks for strlen(),
strnlen(), and strrchr()
- Add RISC-V-specific strnlen(), strchr(), strrchr() implementations
- Add hardware error exception handling
- Clean up and optimize our unaligned access probe code
- Enable HAVE_IOREMAP_PROT to be able to use generic_access_phys()
- Remove XIP kernel support
- Warn when addresses outside the vmemmap range are passed to
vmemmap_populate()
- Update the ACPI FADT revision check to warn if it's not at least
ACPI v6.6, which is when key RISC-V-specific tables were added to
the specification
- Increase COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to 2048 to match ARM64, x86, PowerPC,
etc.
- Make kaslr_offset() a static inline function, since there's no need
for it to show up in the symbol table
- Add KASLR offset and SATP to the VMCOREINFO ELF notes to improve
kdump support
- Add Makefile cleanup rule for vdso_cfi copied source files, and add
a .gitignore for the build artifacts in that directory
- Remove some redundant ifdefs that check Kconfig macros
- Add missing SPDX license tag to the CFI selftest
- Simplify UTS_MACHINE assignment in the RISC-V Makefile
- Clarify some unclear comments and remove some superfluous comments
- Fix various English typos across the RISC-V codebase"
