We need
4ba4f1afb6a9 ("perf: Generic hotplug support for a PMU with a scope")
in order to land a i915 PMU simplification and a fix. That landed in 6.12
and we are stuck at 6.9 so lets bump things forward.

Merge tag 'modules-6.13-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/modules/linux

Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain:

- The whole caching of module code into huge pages by Mike Rapoport is
going in through Andrew Morton's tree due to some other code
dependencies. That's really the biggest highlight for Linux kernel
modules in this release. With it we share huge pages for modules,
starting off with x86. Expect to see that soon through Andrew!

- Helge Deller addressed some lingering low hanging fruit alignment
enhancements by. It is worth pointing out that from his old patch
series I dropped his vmlinux.lds.h change at Masahiro's request as he
would prefer this to be specified in asm code [0].

- Matthew Maurer and Sami Tolvanen have been tag teaming to help get us
closer to a modversions for Rust. In this cycle we take in quite a
lot of the refactoring for ELF validation. I expect modversions for
Rust will be merged by v6.14 as that code is mostly ready now.

- Adds a new modules selftests: kallsyms which helps us tests
find_symbol() and the limits of kallsyms on Linux today.

- We have a realtime mailing list to kernel-ci testing for modules now
which relies and combines patchwork, kpd and kdevops:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-modules/list/
https://github.com/linux-kdevops/kdevops/blob/main/docs/kernel-ci/README.md
https://github.com/linux-kdevops/kdevops/blob/main/docs/kernel-ci/kernel-ci-kpd.md
https://github.com/linux-kdevops/kdevops/blob/main/docs/kernel-ci/linux-modules-kdevops-ci.md

If you want to help avoid Linux kernel modules regressions, now its
simple, just add a new Linux modules sefltests under
tools/testing/selftests/module/ That is it. All new selftests will be
used and leveraged automatically by the CI.

selftests: add new kallsyms selftests

We lack find_symbol() selftests, so add one. This let's us stress test
improvements easily on find_symbol() or optimizations. It also inherently
allows us to test the limits of kallsyms on Linux today.

We test a pathalogical use case for kallsyms by introducing modules
which are automatically written for us with a larger number of symbols.
We have 4 kallsyms test modules:

A: has KALLSYSMS_NUMSYMS exported symbols
B: uses one of A's symbols
C: adds KALLSYMS_SCALE_FACTOR * KALLSYSMS_NUMSYMS exported
D: adds 2 * the symbols than C

By using anything much larger than KALLSYSMS_NUMSYMS as 10,000 and
KALLSYMS_SCALE_FACTOR of 8 we segfault today. So we're capped at
around 160000 symbols somehow today. We can inpsect that issue at
our leasure later, but for now the real value to this test is that
this will easily allow us to test improvements on find_symbol().

We want to enable this test on allyesmodconfig builds so we can't
use this combination, so instead just use a safe value for now and
be informative on the Kconfig symbol documentation about where our
thresholds are for testers. We default then to KALLSYSMS_NUMSYMS of
just 100 and KALLSYMS_SCALE_FACTOR of 8.

On x86_64 we can use perf, for other architectures we just use 'time'
and allow for customizations. For example a future enhancements could
be done for parisc to check for unaligned accesses which triggers a
special special exception handler assembler code inside the kernel.
The negative impact on performance is so large on parisc that it
keeps track of its accesses on /proc/cpuinfo as UAH:

IRQ: CPU0 CPU1
3: 1332 0 SuperIO ttyS0
7: 1270013 0 SuperIO pata_ns87415
64: 320023012 320021431 CPU timer
65: 17080507 20624423 CPU IPI
UAH: 10948640 58104 Unaligned access handler traps

While at it, this tidies up lib/ test modules to allow us to have
a new directory for them. The amount of test modules under lib/
is insane.

This should also hopefully showcase how to start doing basic
self module writing code, which may be more useful for more complex
cases later in the future.
