bitops: make BYTES_TO_BITS() treewide-available

2026-07-24T13:51:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7d8296b250f2eed73f1758607926d4d258dea5d4 ] Avoid open-coding that simple expression each time by moving BYTES_TO_BITS() from the probes code to to export it to the rest of the kernel. Simplify the macro while at it. `BITS_PER_LONG / sizeof(long)` always equals to %BITS_PER_BYTE, regardless of the target architecture. Do the same for the tools ecosystem as well (incl. its version of bitops.h). The previous implementation had its implicit type of long, while the new one is int, so adjust the format literal accordingly in the perf code.

tools: move alignment-related macros to new

2024-09-04T11:23:37+00:00

commit 10a04ff09bcc39e0044190ffe9f00f998f13647c upstream. Currently, tools have *ALIGN*() macros scattered across the unrelated headers, as there are only 3 of them and they were added separately each time on an as-needed basis. Anyway, let's make it more consistent with the kernel headers and allow using those macros outside of the mentioned headers. Create inside the tools/ folder and include it where needed.

bitmap: introduce generic optimized bitmap_size()

2024-09-04T11:23:16+00:00

commit a37fbe666c016fd89e4460d0ebfcea05baba46dc upstream. The number of times yet another open coded `BITS_TO_LONGS(nbits) * sizeof(long)` can be spotted is huge. Some generic helper is long overdue. Add one, bitmap_size(), but with one detail. BITS_TO_LONGS() uses DIV_ROUND_UP(). The latter works well when both divident and divisor are compile-time constants or when the divisor is not a pow-of-2. When it is however, the compilers sometimes tend to generate suboptimal code (GCC 13): 48 83 c0 3f add $0x3f,%rax 48 c1 e8 06 shr $0x6,%rax 48 8d 14 c5 00 00 00 00 lea 0x0(,%rax,8),%rdx %BITS_PER_LONG is always a pow-2 (either 32 or 64), but GCC still does full division of `nbits + 63` by it and then multiplication by 8. Instead of BITS_TO_LONGS(), use ALIGN() and then divide by 8. GCC: 8d 50 3f lea 0x3f(%rax),%edx c1 ea 03 shr $0x3,%edx 81 e2 f8 ff ff 1f and $0x1ffffff8,%edx Now it shifts `nbits + 63` by 3 positions (IOW performs fast division by 8) and then masks bits[2:0]. bloat-o-meter: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 20/133 up/down: 156/-773 (-617) Clang does it better and generates the same code before/after starting from -O1, except that with the ALIGN() approach it uses %edx and thus still saves some bytes: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 9/133 up/down: 18/-538 (-520) Note that we can't expand DIV_ROUND_UP() by adding a check and using this approach there, as it's used in array declarations where expressions are not allowed. Add this helper to tools/ as well. Reviewed-by: Przemek Kitszel Acked-by: Yury Norov Signed-off-by: Alexander Lobakin Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

bpf: Fix BTF_ID symbol generation collision in tools/

2023-10-06T11:18:23+00:00

commit c0bb9fb0e52a64601d38b3739b729d9138d4c8a1 upstream. Marcus and Satya reported an issue where BTF_ID macro generates same symbol in separate objects and that breaks final vmlinux link. ld.lld: error: ld-temp.o :14577:1: symbol '__BTF_ID__struct__cgroup__624' is already defined This can be triggered under specific configs when __COUNTER__ happens to be the same for the same symbol in two different translation units, which is already quite unlikely to happen. Add __LINE__ number suffix to make BTF_ID symbol more unique, which is not a complete fix, but it would help for now and meanwhile we can work on better solution as suggested by Andrii.

tools: fix ARRAY_SIZE defines in tools and selftests hdrs

2023-02-06T06:59:01+00:00

commit 066b34aa5461f6072dbbecb690f4fe446b736ebf upstream. tools/include/linux/kernel.h and kselftest_harness.h are missing ifndef guard around ARRAY_SIZE define. Fix them to avoid duplicate define errors during compile when another file defines it. This problem was found when compiling selftests that include a header with ARRAY_SIZE define. ARRAY_SIZE is defined in several selftests. There are about 25+ duplicate defines in various selftests source and header files. Add ARRAY_SIZE to kselftest.h in preparation for removing duplicate ARRAY_SIZE defines from individual test files. Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan Cc: Kyle Huey Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
