       "A set of perf related fixes:
      
         - fix a CR4.PCE propagation issue caused by usage of mm instead of
           active_mm and therefore propagated the wrong value.
      
         - perf core fixes, which plug a use-after-free issue and make the
           event inheritance on fork more robust.
      
         - a tooling fix for symbol handling"

       "Fixes to the AFS filesystem in the kernel.
      
        They fix a variety of bugs. These include some issues fixed for
        consistency with other AFS implementations:
      
         - handle AFS mode bits better
      
         - use the client mtime rather than the server mtime in the protocol
      
         - handle the server returning more or less data than was requested in
           a FetchData call
      
         - distinguish mountpoints from symlinks based on the mode bits rather
           than preemptively reading every symlink to find out what it
           actually represents
      
        One other notable change for the user is that files are now flushed on
        close analogously with other network filesystems"

      perf symbols: Fix symbols__fixup_end heuristic for corner cases · e7ede72a
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      The current symbols__fixup_end() heuristic for the last entry in the rb
      tree is suboptimal as it leads to not being able to recognize the symbol
      in the call graph in a couple of corner cases, for example:
      
       i) If the symbol has a start address (f.e. exposed via kallsyms)
          that is at a page boundary, then the roundup(curr->start, 4096)
          for the last entry will result in curr->start == curr->end with
          a symbol length of zero.
      
      ii) If the symbol has a start address that is shortly before a page
          boundary, then also here, curr->end - curr->start will just be
          very few bytes, where it's unrealistic that we could perform a
          match against.
      
      Instead, change the heuristic to roundup(curr->start, 4096) + 4096, so
      that we can catch such corner cases and have a better chance to find
      that specific symbol. It's still just best effort as the real end of the
      symbol is unknown to us (and could even be at a larger offset than the
      current range), but better than the current situation.
      
      Alexei reported that he recently run into case i) with a JITed eBPF
      program (these are all page aligned) as the last symbol which wasn't
      properly shown in the call graph (while other eBPF program symbols in
      the rb tree were displayed correctly). Since this is a generic issue,
      lets try to improve the heuristic a bit.

      x86/perf: Fix CR4.PCE propagation to use active_mm instead of mm · 5dc855d4
      Andy Lutomirski authored
      If one thread mmaps a perf event while another thread in the same mm
      is in some context where active_mm != mm (which can happen in the
      scheduler, for example), refresh_pce() would write the wrong value
      to CR4.PCE.  This broke some PAPI tests.
