Merge tag 'probes-v6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:
"Cleanups:
- kprobes: Fixes typo in kprobes samples
- tracing/eprobes: Remove 'break' after return
kretprobe/fprobe performance improvements:
- lib: Introduce new `objpool`, which is a high performance lockless
object queue. This uses per-cpu ring array to allocate/release
objects from the pre-allocated object pool.
Since the index of ring array is a 32bit sequential counter, we can
retry to push/pop the object pointer from the ring without lock (as
seq-lock does)
- lib: Add an objpool test module to test the functionality and
evaluate the performance under some circumstances
- kprobes/fprobe: Improve kretprobe and rethook scalability
performance with objpool.
This improves both legacy kretprobe and fprobe exit handler (which
is based on rethook) to be scalable on SMP systems. Even with
8-threads parallel test, it shows a great scalability improvement
- Remove unneeded freelist.h which is replaced by objpool
- objpool: Add maintainers entry for the objpool
- objpool: Fix to remove unused include header lines"
