= Core (various) =

 * binfmt_misc: Add a new flag 'F' to the binfmt handlers.  If you pass in 'F' the binary that runs the emulation will be opened immediately and in future, will be cloned from the open file. The net effect is that the handler survives both changeroots and mount namespace changes, making it easy to work with foreign architecture containers without contaminating the container image with the emulator [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/948b701a607f123df92ed29084413e5dd8cda2ed commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/4af75df6a410ce76d9f60f27b07e5645ecc2c5ed commit]

 * modules: add support for a {{{ro_after_init}}} section, and enable read-only protection for that section after the module init runs [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/444d13ff10fb13bc3e64859c3cf9ce43dcfeb075 commit]
 * dynamic_debug:  Although dynamic debug is often only used for debug builds, sometimes its enabled for production builds as well. Minimize its impact by using jump labels [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/9049fc745300c5e2236cbfc69f5e8cadb6f1f57c commit]

= Tracing and perf tool =

 * Add per event callchain limit: Recently we introduced a sysctl ({{{kernel.perf_event_max_stack}}}) to tune the max-stack for all events for which callchains were requested. This release introduces a way to set maximum stack limits per event. i.e. this becomes possible: {{{$ perf record -e sched:*/max-stack=2/ -e block:*/max-stack=10/ -a}}}, allowing finer tuning of how much buffer space callchains use [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/97c79a38cd454602645f0470ffb444b3b75ce574 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/792d48b4cf9c248ab2bf66c140a27c48e116bed7 commit]
 * perf stat: Add support for TopDown. This implements a new {{{--topdown}}} mode in perf stat (similar to {{{--transaction}}}) that measures the pipe line bottlenecks. It is intended to replace the frontend cycles idle/backend cycles idle metrics in standard perf stat output. These metrics are not reliable in many workloads, due to out of order effects. The current version works on Intel Core CPUs starting with Sandy Bridge, and Atom CPUs starting with Silvermont [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/44b1e60ab576c343aa592a2a6c679297cc69740d commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/239bd47f8355eb5defc865cf408824b6cfeca5dc commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/41c8ca2a924b359e8f1768f8550487cd13a1ec03 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/c51fd6395d67a6d414834db7f892c95594247d6f commit]
 * Support cross-architecture unwinding, i.e.  collecting {{{--call-graph dwarf}}} perf.data files in one machine and then doing analysis in another machine of a different hardware architecture [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/057fbfb25cde4a368418f3f720cdc31d48800c4d commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/52ffe0ff02fc053a025c381d5808e9ecd3206dfe commit]
 * Finish merging initial SDT (Statically Defined Traces) support. Several funcionality is added: {{{perf probe --list}}} shows all cached probes when {{{--cache}}} is given, {{{perf probe --del}}} removes caches when {{{--cache}}} is given, {{{perf buildid-cache --add <binary>}}} scans given binary and add the SDT events to probe cache. "sdt_" prefix is appended for all SDT providers to avoid event-name clash with other pre-defined events. It is possible to use the cached SDT events as other cached events, via {{{perf probe --add "sdt_<provider>:<event>=<event>"}}}. To improve usability, support {{{%[PROVIDER:]SDTEVENT}}} format to add new probes on SDT and cached events. Glob wildcard is allowed for reusing cached/SDT events. E.g. {{{perf probe -x /usr/lib64/libc-2.20.so -a %sdt_libc:\*}}}. Support {{{@BUILDID}}} or {{{@FILE}}} suffix for SDT events. This allows perf to add probes on SDTs/pre-cached events on given FILE or the file which has given BUILDID (also, this complements BUILDID) [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/bc0622302f344551050995491b7d14176f39c628 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/1f3736c9c833e40ac4d3a8dc6d661e341df8a259 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/4a0f65c102ec3a718b4a0b90981232b6cb019477 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/8d993d96901f55d26e083390aae80fd02cbff7aa commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/6430a94ead2a4c8f350441351a735303eb6d1c8a commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/36a009fe07bdecd201335f982babb8af34b603e2 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/c3492a3a4e58117f18d96125e67b0bed7c4231e1 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/05bf2c8a2a819132b4a8f35d4315ff22e8e84a20 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/42bba263eb58800b6239a0cb35ac17fd29379277 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/1de7b8bf728fd8d51b0cc644003d0694c6e0feef commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/a598180aa1279bac4d24dfc85cd2d78553c4210d commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/7e9fca51fbf8430e27fb6b29299eda575e3f00cf commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/e26e63be64a108c1fd12020b93b5b447ffe0532b commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/8e5dc848356ecf6ea8d27d641c4d7ad8d42fe92b commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/2fd457a34525ea3bc609e377b46af759af8a7934 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/060fa0c7a3e0bb4f1426ee79dfd38e2a4c80067a commit]

 * Attach sw fences to exported vGEM dma-buf (ioctl). By allowing the user to create and attach fences to the exported vGEM buffers (on the dma-buf), the user can implement a deferred renderer and queue hardware operations like flipping and then signal the buffer readiness (i.e. this allows the user to schedule operations out-of-order, but have them complete in-order). This also makes it much easier to write tightly controlled testcases for dma-buf fencing and signaling between hardware drivers [https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/4077798484459a2eced2050045099a466ecb618a commit]
