fd16449a9b bpf: Preserve packet pointer class displacement in regsafe()
regsafe() maps packet pointer IDs between states and checks that each
current register range is a subset of the corresponding explored
register range. It does not, however, preserve the displacement between
registers that share a packet pointer ID.

This is unsound because packet range is shared by ID. A bounds check on
one class member updates every member, and a later access can consume the
range through another member. Commit 022ac07508 ("bpf: use reg->var_off
instead of reg->off for pointers") folded the fixed pointer offset into
r64 and removed the old off equality check, so two individually narrower
registers can prune even when their displacement has changed. The
explored path can then license an out-of-bounds packet access on the
pruned path.

Require matching range bases for packet pointers with an ID. Together
with the existing ID mapping, this preserves the displacement between
members of each packet-pointer class without adding per-ID state.
Packet pointers without an ID remain unaffected.

261b61d373 bpf: Make post-verification instruction rewrites killable
After do_check() returns, the verifier runs several instruction rewrite
passes. Some of them patch or remove one instruction at a time. Each
operation moves the remaining instruction and auxiliary-data arrays and
adjusts all branch offsets, making the overall work quadratic in the
program length.

A privileged loader can submit 131072 unconditional jumps by zero followed
by a valid return. Verification finishes quickly, but bpf_opt_remove_nops()
then spends a long time removing each jump separately. Since this
post-verification work neither checks for signals nor reschedules, a pending
SIGKILL cannot terminate the task until the rewrite finishes.

Make bpf_patch_insn_data() and verifier_remove_insns() common cancellation
and rescheduling points. These helpers run from BPF_PROG_LOAD process
context, and bpf_patch_insn_data() can already sleep while reallocating
auxiliary data.

Report interrupted constant blinding as -EINTR and propagate it through
both JIT paths, including kernels that permit interpreter fallback.
Other blinding failures retain the existing fallback behavior.

This does not reduce the quadratic cost of the rewrite passes, but it makes
the work preemptible and allows a killed loader to be torn down promptly.

1d653a1839 fprobe: Terminate the fgraph_data list when the reservation is not filled
fprobe_fgraph_entry() reserves shadow stack space for every fprobe with
an exit handler, but only fills it for those whose entry handler returns
0. fgraph_reserve_data() does not clear the area, so fprobe_return()
parses the unused tail as headers left over from an earlier call, and an
exit handler can run twice or despite its entry handler asking to skip
it.

Write a zero word after the last entry to terminate the walk. A zeroed
slot does not decode to a NULL fprobe on the arches that encode the
header into one unsigned long, since arch_decode_fprobe_header_fp() ORs
in FPROBE_HEADER_MSB_PATTERN, so make read_fprobe_header() return NULL
for a zeroed slot.

50e80e2bb5 bpf: Skip unsettled links in link iterator
bpf_link_prime() inserts a link into link_idr before anon_inode_getfile()
succeeds and before bpf_link_settle() publishes the ID in link->id.
bpf_link_by_id() treats such an ID-zero link as unsettled, but the link
iterator takes a reference without this check.

If anon_inode_getfile() then fails, the creator removes the ID and frees
its still-private link directly.  The iterator is left with a dangling
reference and its next bpf_link_put() accesses freed memory.

Treat ID-zero entries as transient in bpf_link_get_curr_or_next(), just as
bpf_link_by_id() does.

40c2096961 bpf: Verify global subprogs in each sleepability context
Global subprograms are verified independently with a fresh verifier root.
do_check_common() currently seeds that root's in_sleepable state from the
program, even though a global subprogram can also run from callbacks whose
execution context differs from the program's main entry point.

In particular, workqueue and task-work callbacks are sleepable even when
the containing program is not. A global subprogram of that program is
therefore verified as non-sleepable, making in_rcu_cs() true and allowing
loads of RCU-protected kptrs to produce trusted MEM_RCU pointers. The same
subprogram can then be called from a sleepable callback without a classic
RCU reader. It can retain such a pointer while the object is freed and use
it after free.

The verifier's execution-context predicates are complementary. A state is
sleepable only when in_sleepable is set and no RCU, preemption, IRQ, or lock
region is active. Each condition which prevents sleeping also provides RCU
protection, while in_rcu_cs() treats a non-sleepable state as implicitly
protected.

Use this relationship to represent a global subprogram caller with only the
result of in_sleepable_context(). A protected sleepable caller is normalized
to in_sleepable=false at the independent verification root. This both
prevents sleepable operations and makes in_rcu_cs() true without copying
caller-owned lock state.

Track only the contexts in which each global subprogram is actually
reached. Verify it once if all reachable calls use the same context, and
twice only if both sleepable and non-sleepable calls reach it. Calls found
while verifying globals or asynchronous callbacks mark further contexts
for checking. Repeat the existing subprogram walk until all called
contexts have been verified; unreachable global calls remain unchecked.

Accumulate instruction counts over those verification passes. Preserve
the total recorded before each pass, since path accounting has already
added this pass's synchronous instructions and its root total must also
include asynchronous subprograms.

This makes an unprotected callback verify the global subprogram as
sleepable, turning its RCU-protected kptr load into an untrusted pointer.
Protected callers and global subprograms which do not depend on implicit RCU
protection remain valid.

cb86607ada sched_ext: Don't run ops.dequeue() with a DSQ lock held
ops.dequeue() is invoked with the source user DSQ's lock still held on
the consume and move paths (scx_consume_dispatch_q(),
move_task_between_dsqs()). A BPF scheduler which locks the source user
DSQ from ops.dequeue() - e.g. by iterating it with bpf_iter_scx_dsq -
self-deadlocks.

ops.dequeue() can only call the "any" kfuncs and none of them can lock a
builtin DSQ, so the global and bypass paths can't deadlock; however,
all DSQ locks share one lockdep class, so iterating any user DSQ from
ops.dequeue() on those paths trips the recursion check.

Move the invocation after the DSQ unlock on all three paths.
SCX_TASK_IN_CUSTODY is cleared under the lock serializing the transfer
so that the callback is invoked exactly once.

df5cdc2c83 sched_ext: Derive SCX_RQ_IN_WAKEUP from the core enqueue flags
schedule_deferred_locked() skips scheduling a deferred action while
SCX_RQ_IN_WAKEUP is set and relies on the task_woken_scx() call that follows
a wakeup enqueue to run it. enqueue_task_scx() sets the flag from the merged
enqueue flags, which include the flags stashed for a remote activation.
move_remote_task_to_local_dsq() thus sets SCX_RQ_IN_WAKEUP on the
destination rq when the moved task was woken up, although no
task_woken_scx() follows that activation.

An IMMED insert into a busy destination requests a local reenqueue during
that enqueue. The request gets linked but not scheduled and stays pending
until an unrelated wakeup or preemption on that CPU runs the deferred
actions. The IMMED task sits behind the running task in the meantime. If
nothing runs them before the scheduler is disabled, the request outlives the
scheduler and points into its freed per-cpu area, which the next scheduler
dereferences from run_deferred().

Test the core enqueue flags for the wakeup bit. Only the core's wakeup path
is followed by task_woken_scx().

d2710c8d93 signal: Prevent exec() race
Hyunwoo debugged the following KASAN UAF splat:

   __flush_itimer_signals+0x211/0x320
   flush_itimer_signals+0x47/0x90
   begin_new_exec+0xa6b/0x28c0

It turned out that this happens with a non-leader exec() as Hyunwoo
explained:

de_thread() calls exchange_tids() before release_task(leader), so the
struct pid held by a SIGEV_THREAD_ID timer created against the leader's tid
now points to the thread which called execve(). pid_task() returns that
thread and lock_task_sighand() on it succeeds.

If the timer signal is blocked, its sigqueue stays queued on the leader's
task::pending. The next expiry of that timer can then run while
release_task() flushes the queue.

posixtimer_send_sigqueue() checks whether the sigqueue is already queued
with a plain list_empty(), which only reads list_head::next.
list_del_init() is not atomic and INIT_LIST_HEAD() stores list_head::next
before list_head::prev, so the check can pass in between. list_add_tail()
queues the entry on the task::pending of the live thread, and the
list_head::prev store from the flush then overwrites the list_head::prev
link that list_add_tail() has just set.

__flush_itimer_signals() does not undo that either. With list_head::prev
pointing at the entry itself, its list_del_init() only stores the same
values again, so the entry is not removed from the list. It is still there
after the last reference is dropped and the timer is freed by RCU, and the
list_add_tail() of a later tgkill() follows that list_head::prev into the
freed timer.

This problem surfaced with the recent commit which moved the sigqueue flush
out of the sighand lock held region.

Hyonwoo proposed to fix this by using list_del_init_careful(), but that
just papers over the problem. After some disucssions and various attempts
to solve it, Eric pointed out that there is no reason to flush
task::pending late in release_task() and it should be done in
exit_signals() already.

As nothing can collect and deliver signals which are queued in a dying
task's pending queue, there is no reason to delay it further.

But it has to be ensured that no signals can be queued into it after that
point. exit_signals() sets PF_EXITING in task::flags, which can be used as
an indicator for this.

Cure it by:

  - Preventing signal queueing for task private signals (PIDTYPE_PID) when
    the task has PF_EXITING set in __send_signal_locked() and in
    posixtimer_send_sigqueue().

  - Protecting the unlocked setting of PF_EXITING in exit_signals() for the
    task group empty and the group exit case with sighand lock

  - Flushing task::pending signals right there.

    Optimize that by moving the whole pending list to an on-stack list head
    under sighand lock and free the signals without the lock held.

There has been quite some discussion about the lockless flush and the
non-leader exec case on weakly ordered systems. The problem is that a third
party which tries to send a posix timer signal relies on the PID lookup to
find the target task and that lookup might result in the new leader when
the signal was originaly directed to the old leader. In case that the
signal was queued on the old leader then the lockless flush raised a
concern over the following situation:

   old_leader		new_leader              third party

A: flush_list()	// list_del_init() stores to sigqueue

   LOCK (tasklist)
   old_leader->exit_state = EXIT_ZOMBIE;
B: UNLOCK (tasklist)

C:			LOCK (tasklist)
			if (old_leader->exit_state)
			   transfer_tids()
D:			     store PID
						posix_timer_send_sigqueue()
						// Observes #D so t = new_leader
E:						t = get_target()

F:						LOCK (sighand)

G:						   if (list_empty(sigqueue))
							list_add(sigqueue)

The concern was that the third party might observe #D but not observe #A
and therefore would proceed to #G while the list_del() stores (#A) in
flush_list() are not visible yet, which could result in list corruption.

That would be possible if looking at it solely from a RELEASE+ACQUIRE
ordering point of view, but B-C is a UNLOCK+LOCK hand-over, which is not
the same as RELEASE+ACQUIRE:

  RELEASE+ACQUIRE: RCpc,  only the CPUs involved agree on the ordering
  UNLOCK+LOCK:     RCtso, the hand-over is store-ordering

As B-C is UNLOCK+LOCK, which is RCtso and that does impose store order,
A stores must happen before the D store.

Combine with E-F, which has a data dependency from the LOAD to the LOCK and
thereby constraints later LOADs, those sigqueue loads in G that come after
F must in fact observe the A stores.

7de9a6fb44 sched_ext: Wait for SCX_OPSS_DISPATCHING before reenqueueing a task
ebf1ccff79 ("sched_ext: Fix ops.dequeue() semantics") moved the final
ops_state store in scx_dispatch_enqueue() after the DSQ unlock so that the
custody update and ops.dequeue() precede it. A task can thus be found on a
DSQ while still SCX_OPSS_DISPATCHING.

The dequeue and core-sched pick paths wait for the state to clear in
ops_dequeue() but the reenqueue paths don't. A reenqueue in that window runs
ops.enqueue() and sets SCX_OPSS_QUEUED before the dispatch has completed.
The dispatcher's final store then overwrites it with SCX_OPSS_NONE and
finish_dispatch() drops every later dispatch of the task.

Wait for SCX_OPSS_DISPATCHING to clear before dequeueing a task for
reenqueue, the same way ops_dequeue() does.

a9e3760b08 sched_ext: Maintain an online cid mask in the scheduler arena
Schedulers on the default cid mapping treat [0, nr_online_cids) as the
online set and restart on hotplug. Schedulers that install their own mapping
with scx_bpf_cid_override() have no way to learn which cids are online: the
count no longer identifies members and the CPU-form cpumask is unusable from
cid programs. This is an obvious hole in the cid API.

Add scx_bpf_online_cmask(), a kernel-maintained cmask in the scheduler's
arena, allocated alongside the per-CPU scratch masks and populated after the
cid mapping is finalized and before ops.init(), for child schedulers too.
The pointer stays valid through ops.exit() with no reference to take. It is
the arena offset as a void pointer, the same form struct_ops arena arguments
arrive in. The verifier types the void return as a scalar for the program's
arena cast.

The mask follows the SCX hotplug notifications: seeded from cpu_active_mask
and updated before ops.cid_online/offline() runs, so it lags cpu_online_mask
only inside a hotplug transition. Updates walk the scheduler list under the
lock that also serializes unlinking. Reads are live, not atomic snapshots.
Root initialization excludes hotplug.

9a0b159ff1 sched_ext: scx_qmap: Restore unused idle claims from ops.dispatch()
scx_qmap tracks idle cids itself. pick_direct_dispatch_cid() claims a cid by
clearing its bit and the task is inserted into that cid's local DSQ, which
kicks the CPU. When the task does not arrive, for example because the insert
fell back to the global DSQ after an affinity change, the CPU wakes, finds
nothing and picks idle again. That is not an idle transition, so
ops.update_idle() is not called and the cid stays marked busy until an
unrelated task runs on it.

Restore the claim from ops.dispatch(). The kick guarantees a dispatch on the
kicked CPU, and when it finds nothing to run with a NULL @prev, the CPU is
going back to idle. Document the pattern in ops.update_idle(), which reports
only actual transitions.

057dac23d3 cgroup: Avoid iteration of dying tasks with zero refcount
The commit 260fbcb92b ("cgroup: Move dying_tasks cleanup from
cgroup_task_release() to cgroup_task_free()") extended the lifetime of
tasks on the dying_tasks list.
The iterators have provision to go through dying_tasks because of
dying threadgroup leaders or explicit CSS_TASK_ITER_WITH_DEAD, however,
it was expected that such tasks can obtain a new reference (that is
possible before cgroup_task_release()/put_task_struct_rcu_user()).
The tasks after cgroup_task_release() and before cgroup_task_free()
are subject to race when they may or may not have ->usage count > 0.

The race window is between css_task_iter_next() invocations
when css_set_lock is released and we may arrive at a new ->task_pos.
The iterator should not attempt to resurrect tasks whose ->usage count
dropped to zero. (When that happens, __put_task_struct_rcu_cb() is
already imminent and the returned task_struct would could be used
after free.)

As for the fix, we cannot simply check the signal->live count of a task
on the dying list because that won't distinguish regular zombies waiting
to be reaped from RCU remnant tasks that are going to be free'd.
Therefore add an extra check to rule out ->usage==0 tasks from any
iteration.

The repeat: loop in css_task_iter_advance() doesn't consider ->usage
count, so add a new loop to css_task_iter_next() to skip de-used tasks
on the dying_list.

Rough illustration of the possible race

953824e508 bpf: Fix u32 overflow issue in map batch operations
Several map batch operation implementations such as
generic_map_lookup_batch() use calculations in the form of
"values + cp * map->value_size" to compute the desired userspace memory
address for reading or writing. This can overflow the u32 type
(the result of "cp * map->value_size") when the map size exceeds 4GB.

generic_map_lookup_batch() may corrupt values for some keys in
userspace memory, and in some cases it mismatches values for some keys
while still reporting success.

Other batch operations may fail to delete or update some keys,
or the syscall may return unexpected errors.

Add size_t casts to prevent the affected offset and size calculations
from overflowing.

1c21452d02 bpf: Fix UAF due to concurrent consumption of ttrace lists in alloc_bulk
Syzkaller repeatedly triggered UAF splats related to nodes in
waiting_for_gp_ttrace within the bpf memalloc:

 rcu_tasks_kthread+0xf3/0x120 kernel/rcu/tasks.h:651

The reason is that the UAF occurs after the RCU Tasks Trace GP expires:
when the __free_rcu() callback runs, there is no synchronization
protecting llist_del_all() against concurrent alloc_bulk() operating on
waiting_for_gp_ttrace, leading to the race condition below:

CPU0                                           CPU1
                                               __free_rcu (RCU Tasks Trace callback)
alloc_bulk
  llist_del_first(&c->waiting_for_gp_ttrace)
    entry = smp_load_acquire(&head->first);
    do {
      if (entry == NULL)
        return NULL;
                                               free_all(llist_del_all(&c->waiting_for_gp_ttrace))
                                                 llist_for_each_safe(pos, t, llnode)
                                                   free_one(pos);
      next = READ_ONCE(entry->next); <-- trigger UAF
    } while (!try_cmpxchg(&head->first, &entry, next));

In addition, there is also a theoretical race condition on the
free_by_rcu_ttrace list. This race requires two preconditions: an
in-flight Tasks Trace GP keeping c->call_rcu_ttrace_in_progress == 1,
and concurrent cross-CPU frees repopulating c->free_by_rcu_ttrace with
new nodes. Under these conditions, the following scenario triggers UAF:

// CPU0
// irq work is still busy (on PREEMPT_RT)
alloc_bulk()
  llist_del_first(&c->free_by_rcu_ttrace)
    entry = smp_load_acquire(&head->first);
    do {
      if (entry == NULL)
        return NULL;

        // CPU1
        bpf_mem_alloc_destroy()
          WRITE_ONCE(c->draining, true)
          // wait for CPU0
          irq_work_sync()

                // CPU2
                do_call_rcu_ttrace(tgt(CPU0))
                  if (c->draining) {
                    llist_del_all(&c->free_by_rcu_ttrace)
                    free_all()
                  }

// CPU0 continue
      next = READ_ONCE(entry->next); <-- trigger UAF
    while (!try_cmpxchg(&head->first, &entry, next));

Fix this by introducing a raw spinlock to synchronize the concurrent
consumption on waiting_for_gp_ttrace and free_by_rcu_ttrace.

22098763a1 tracing fixes for 7.3:
- Don't destroy user event fields when removal fails
 
   User event fields are destroyed before the event is removed from
   visibility. But that can fail leaving the still visible event with no
   fields. Move the destroying of the fields to after the event is
   successfully removed from visibility.
 
 - Initialize function graph state is fork before calling copy_exec_state()
 
   For non-CLONE_VM forks, copy_exec_state() allocates a new task_exec_state.
   If that allocation fails, ftrace_graph_exit_task() will free the tasks
   ret_stack pointer. Since that pointer is still using the parent's
   ret_stack, it mistakenly frees the parent's pointer too.
 
   Call ftrace_graph_init() on the task first which will NULL out the new
   tasks's ret_stack and if the copy fails, it will not free anything.
 
 - Remove FGRAPH_MAX_INDEX
 
   The macro FGRAPH_MAX_INDEX was added but never used. Remove it.
 
 - Save ent_size in function graph printing of nested functions
 
   The function graph tracer needs to look at the next event to see if the
   next event is the return of the current function entry. If it is, it
   prints a single line:
 
     ktime_get();
 
   Otherwise it prints it like a nested function:
 
     tick_nohz_irq_exit() {
       ktime_get();
       kcpustat_irq_exit();
     }
 
   In order to look at the next event, it must save the current event so that
   it has the information to print from it. It saves the event in the
   iterator descriptor called "ent". What it doesn't save is the ent_size of
   the event which is now used to know if the function graph arguments are to
   be printed. The peek doesn't save the size so the size used happens to be
   that of the size of the last event that was seen.
 
   Save the entry event size in the iterator descriptor so that the correct
   size is used.
 
 - Fix several errors with freeing data in the histogram code
 
   The histogram code had a lot of leaked or or incorrect accounting when
   failures happen. Correct them.
 
 - Fix histogram regression of .percent and .graph modifiers
 
   Up until 6.3 histogram values could have "percent" or "graph" modifiers
   that changed how they were printed. But a change that added restricting
   histograms values from being strings, stack traces and other modifiers
   inadvertently prevented them from using the percent and graph modifiers,
   which were legal use cases for values.
 
   Put back the percent and graph modifiers.
 
 - Fix various typos in the comments
 
 - Set the trace_clock before initializing a histogram with clock argument
 
   The histogram API allows the user to specific which trace clock to use via
   a "clock=" string. The histogram is set up first before the clock is
   checked. If the passed in clock is not valid, it exits without fully
   fixing up the histogram leaving it on the list and a use-after-free can
   trigger.
 
   Update the clock argument first and if it fails then exit gracefully
   before the histogram trigger is placed on any lists.
 
 - Restore :mod: trailer after parsing in ftrace_set_clr_event
 
   The function ftrace_set_clr_event() modifies the parse string and needs to
   put it back to what was passed in. It searches for ":mod:" via a strsep()
   but fails to put back the first ':' in the string.
 
   Add back the ':' in the passed in string.
 
 - Take trace_array reference when opening a tracer options file
 
   The options files are dynamically created and some tracers add their own
   options. When a tracer adds their own list of options, the trace_array
   holding them has an array to hold the list of options for each tracer.
   This array increases in size via a krealloc(), and the new entry gets a
   newly allocated array to hold the options of the new tracer being added.
 
   The element in each entry of the tracer's option array holds a pointer
   back to the trace_array, a pointer to the tracer it is associated to, a
   pointer to the flags of the option.
 
   The issue is that these arrays are freed when the trace_array is freed
   when its instance it represents is removed from the instances directory.
   There's a race that an open of one of these options files can happen when
   the instance is being removed.
 
   Add a new helper function to be called by the open function of the options
   file to iterate all existing trace_arrays under a lock and find the one
   that has the given option element in one of it's tracer arrays. If found,
   then update the associated trace_array's reference counter to keep it from
   being freed. If not found, have the open call return -ENODEV.
 
 - Disable interrupts when acquiring the lock in rb_wake_up_waiters()
 
   The function rb_wake_up_waiters() assumes it will be called in interrupt
   context and does not disable irqs when taking cpu_buffer->reader_lock,
   which can be called in hard interrupt context. The issue is in PREEMPT_RT,
   this function is called in thread context leaving this lock open to a
   deadlock.
 
   Take the lock with interrupts disabled.
 
 - Use rcu_assign_pointer() for tmp_ops filter hash
 
   The tmp_ops used in update_ftrace_direct_mod() assigns its filter_hash
   field directly, but that field is annotated as __rcu and sparse complains.
   Assign it with rcu_assign_pointer()
 
 - Fix use-after-free in enable_trigger_private_data_free()
 
   The trace_event_call is accessed through the event_trigger_data's
   trace_event_file pointer to put the trace_event_call on freeing. The issue
   is that the trace_event_file data may have been freed already causing a
   use-after-free. Add a field to the event_trigger_data that points directly
   to the trace_event_call so that it can decrement its reference directly
   without needing to go through the trace_event_file.
 
 - Fix accounting of buffer data remote headers
 
   trace_buffer_desc_size() and trace_remote_alloc_buffer() undercount the
   number of pages is needed for the asked for size as it doesn't take into
   account the meta data on each page. Add a helper function to do the
   calculation properly and use that in these functions.
 
 - Catch nr_page_va overflow in ring_buffer_desc sizing
 
   The number of pages per remote ring buffer is capped by
   ring_buffer_desc::nr_page_va (32 bits). A buffer_size large enough to
   overflow that field would silently allocate a descriptor smaller than what
   was asked for.
 
 - Do not resize the subbuf order if any per_cpu buffer is disabled
 
   The mmapping of ring buffers disables resizing the subbuffers, but it is
   done per-cpu whereas the subbuf size change is done for all the per_cpu
   buffers under the buffer->mutex. It could change the size of some while
   the mapping is happening on others. Have the resize of the subbuf order
   check all the per_cpu buffers under the lock to see if any of them is
   disabled before starting and causing an inconsistency between buffers that
   are being mapped.

   In order to look at the next event, it must save the current event so
   that it has the information to print from it. It saves the event in
   the iterator descriptor called "ent". What it doesn't save is the
   ent_size of the event which is now used to know if the function graph
   arguments are to be printed. The peek doesn't save the size so the
   size used happens to be that of the size of the last event that was
   seen.

   Save the entry event size in the iterator descriptor so that the
   correct size is used.

 - Fix several errors with freeing data in the histogram code

   The histogram code had a lot of leaked or or incorrect accounting
   when failures happen. Correct them.

 - Fix histogram regression of .percent and .graph modifiers

   Up until 6.3 histogram values could have "percent" or "graph"
   modifiers that changed how they were printed. But a change that added
   restricting histograms values from being strings, stack traces and
   other modifiers inadvertently prevented them from using the percent
   and graph modifiers, which were legal use cases for values.

   Put back the percent and graph modifiers.

 - Fix various typos in the comments

 - Set the trace_clock before initializing a histogram with clock
   argument

   The histogram API allows the user to specific which trace clock to
   use via a "clock=" string. The histogram is set up first before the
   clock is checked. If the passed in clock is not valid, it exits
   without fully fixing up the histogram leaving it on the list and a
   use-after-free can trigger.

   Update the clock argument first and if it fails then exit gracefully
   before the histogram trigger is placed on any lists.

 - Restore :mod: trailer after parsing in ftrace_set_clr_event

   The function ftrace_set_clr_event() modifies the parse string and
   needs to put it back to what was passed in. It searches for ":mod:"
   via a strsep() but fails to put back the first ':' in the string.

   Add back the ':' in the passed in string.

 - Take trace_array reference when opening a tracer options file

   The options files are dynamically created and some tracers add their
   own options. When a tracer adds their own list of options, the
   trace_array holding them has an array to hold the list of options for
   each tracer. This array increases in size via a krealloc(), and the
   new entry gets a newly allocated array to hold the options of the new
   tracer being added.

   The element in each entry of the tracer's option array holds a
   pointer back to the trace_array, a pointer to the tracer it is
   associated to, a pointer to the flags of the option.

   The issue is that these arrays are freed when the trace_array is
   freed when its instance it represents is removed from the instances
   directory. There's a race that an open of one of these options files
   can happen when the instance is being removed.

   Add a new helper function to be called by the open function of the
   options file to iterate all existing trace_arrays under a lock and
   find the one that has the given option element in one of it's tracer
   arrays. If found, then update the associated trace_array's reference
   counter to keep it from being freed. If not found, have the open call
   return -ENODEV.

 - Disable interrupts when acquiring the lock in rb_wake_up_waiters()

   The function rb_wake_up_waiters() assumes it will be called in
   interrupt context and does not disable irqs when taking
   cpu_buffer->reader_lock, which can be called in hard interrupt
   context. The issue is in PREEMPT_RT, this function is called in
   thread context leaving this lock open to a deadlock.

   Take the lock with interrupts disabled.

 - Use rcu_assign_pointer() for tmp_ops filter hash

   The tmp_ops used in update_ftrace_direct_mod() assigns its
   filter_hash field directly, but that field is annotated as __rcu and
   sparse complains. Assign it with rcu_assign_pointer()

 - Fix use-after-free in enable_trigger_private_data_free()

   The trace_event_call is accessed through the event_trigger_data's
   trace_event_file pointer to put the trace_event_call on freeing. The
   issue is that the trace_event_file data may have been freed already
   causing a use-after-free. Add a field to the event_trigger_data that
   points directly to the trace_event_call so that it can decrement its
   reference directly without needing to go through the
   trace_event_file.

 - Fix accounting of buffer data remote headers

   trace_buffer_desc_size() and trace_remote_alloc_buffer() undercount
   the number of pages is needed for the asked for size as it doesn't
   take into account the meta data on each page. Add a helper function
   to do the calculation properly and use that in these functions.

 - Catch nr_page_va overflow in ring_buffer_desc sizing

   The number of pages per remote ring buffer is capped by
   ring_buffer_desc::nr_page_va (32 bits). A buffer_size large enough to
   overflow that field would silently allocate a descriptor smaller than
   what was asked for.

 - Do not resize the subbuf order if any per_cpu buffer is disabled

   The mmapping of ring buffers disables resizing the subbuffers, but it
   is done per-cpu whereas the subbuf size change is done for all the
   per_cpu buffers under the buffer->mutex. It could change the size of
   some while the mapping is happening on others. Have the resize of the
   subbuf order check all the per_cpu buffers under the lock to see if
   any of them is disabled before starting and causing an inconsistency
   between buffers that are being mapped.

d860c67c05 ring-buffer: Check resize_disabled before publishing the new subbuf order
ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() stores the new order and only then walks
the CPUs, returning -EBUSY if any of them has resizing disabled. A user
mapped buffer has resizing disabled, and __rb_map_vma() reads
buffer->subbuf_order without buffer->mutex, so an mmap of an already
mapped CPU racing the failing order change sizes the mapping with the
new order and inserts pages past the sub-buffer into the VMA.

Check the CPUs before storing the new order.

c7a1c6e800 sched_ext: Close the pre-enable ops error claim window
scx_alloc_and_add_sched() publishes ops->priv before
scx_root_enable_workfn() switches the state to SCX_ENABLING. An error
claimed via scx_bpf_error_bstr() from an associated BPF program in that
window is consumed by scx_disable_workfn(), which takes the pre-enable
shortcut in scx_root_disable(). The shortcut returns without any teardown
and restores SCX_DISABLED with an unconditional scx_set_enable_state() xchg
racing the enable workfn's own transition. The enable then completes with
the claim consumed: the scheduler stays up but can never be disabled again,
and bpf_scx_unreg() frees it while still in use, resulting in a
use-after-free. Both WARN_ON_ONCE()s fire back to back:

  WARNING: kernel/sched/ext/ext.c:7522 at
  scx_root_enable_workfn+0xeec/0x1be0, CPU#3: scx_enable_help/276

  WARNING: kernel/sched/ext/ext.c:6398 at scx_root_disable+0xb50/0xdb8,
  CPU#0: sched_ext_helpe/664

scx_root_enable_workfn() switches to SCX_ENABLING before the scheduler
allocation, so ops->priv is never visible while SCX_DISABLED. The allocation
failure path restores SCX_DISABLED.

85136bf224 bpf: Avoid soft lockup in __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch()
__htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch() has no rescheduling point. The
batch count bounds how many entries are copied out, not how many
buckets are visited, so one BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_BATCH call can walk the
map end to end. The empty-bucket fast path is worse: it stays inside
a single rcu_read_lock() / bpf_disable_instrumentation() section for
any run of consecutive empty buckets.

That holds up on small maps, but it falls apart at scale. On a
144-CPU arm64 host running a CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE kernel, periodic
BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_BATCH calls against an LRU hash map with 16,777,216
buckets held a CPU inside the batch op for 77+ seconds and triggered
the soft lockup watchdog.

Commit 75134f16e7 ("bpf: Add schedule points in batch ops") fixed this
same problem in the generic batch ops, but not in this htab-native path,
which every htab-based hash map variant uses for its lookup[_and_delete]
batch ops.

Complete that fix here. Leave the critical section after 64 consecutive
empty buckets, call cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs(), and resume at the saved
bucket cursor. No locks are held at that point, and resuming from the
cursor is already the function's behavior for non-empty buckets. Add the
same call to the per-bucket loop after copy_to_user(), where every lock
has been dropped. cond_resched_rcu() is not enough here: sleeping with
bpf_prog_active elevated makes tracing programs on that CPU silently
skip their invocations.

Plain cond_resched() is not enough either. It is a no-op under PREEMPT
and PREEMPT_LAZY, the only models arm64 and x86 have offered since
commit 7dadeaa6e8 ("sched: Further restrict the preemption modes").
It is also never a Tasks RCU quiescent state, in any model: the
reschedule counts as a preemption. The walking task stays a holdout and
stalls every synchronize_rcu_tasks() caller, ftrace and BPF trampoline
teardown included, until the syscall returns [1].
cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() is the usual tool for that [2]. It reports
the quiescent state at each yield and still reschedules as
cond_resched() does on PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernels.

815e07c8fe ring-buffer: Acquire the lock with irqsave in rb_wake_up_waiters()
rb_wake_up_waiters() is a irq_work callback which is initialized with
init_irq_work(). As such it will be invoked in thread context on
PREEMPT_RT. Invoking the callback in IRQ context on PREEMPT_RT is not an
option due its usage of wake_up_all().  Since this callback may run in
thread context, it needs to acquire ring_buffer_per_cpu::reader_lock with
disabling interrupts and may not assume that they are disabled.

Use raw_spinlock_irqsave() to acquire ring_buffer_per_cpu::reader_lock.

ed0aff60f8 tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening a tracer options file
When a tracer option file is opened, it is passed a descriptor that points
to an element on the trace_array's topts array. This element has
information to find the trace array and other information. It uses this
element to take a reference of the trace_array so that the trace_array
does not get removed while this file is opened.

Unfortunately, there's a race condition where the element itself could be
freed by the removal of the instance the trace_array represents causing a
use-after-free as this element that is used to find the trace_array to
increment its reference counter is also freed when the instance is
removed.

To solve this, add a trace_array_tracer_options_get() helper function that
will take the address of the element that is passed to the open function
by the inode->i_private pointer and search all the trace_arrays under a
lock to find the one that the element's address is in the range of the
trace_arrays topts array elements. When a match happens, that trace_array's
reference would be increased.

Note, there's a race where if an admin was deleting and creating trace
instances at the same time and the memory of the old trace_array's array
matched the memory of the new trace_array that it could in theory open the
option from the wrong trace array. But we do not care because it would be
stupid to perform that kind of action. As long as the only thing that can
happen is that the option from the wrong trace array is used and doesn't
crash the kernel it will only make the user confused. But if they are
doing something stupid like this, they are already confused, so no harm
done.

before returning to the caller the buffer is supposed to be restored

7f711e6235 tracing: Fix memory corruption from a "STACKTRACE" histogram key
"cpu", "CPU", "stacktrace" and "STACKTRACE" are generic fields, defined
with an offset and a size of zero so that the filter code can match them
by name. parse_field() maps them onto their common_* equivalents for
backward compatibility, but unlike the common_* names it hands the
placeholder back to the caller instead of NULL.

create_hist_field() takes a non-NULL field as a promise that the record
carries a stacktrace and picks HIST_FIELD_FN_STACK, so the __data_loc
word is read from offset 0, that is from common_type, and its low 16
bits are followed as an offset into the record. What is found there
becomes the length of an unbounded memcpy. Pick an event whose id is
small enough that the offset stays inside its own record and the length
is a kernel text address:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
  # echo 'hist:keys=STACKTRACE' > events/ftrace/print/trigger
  # echo hello > trace_marker

  Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address

Leave the field NULL, which is what the comment above the branch says
the code does and what common_stacktrace already does. FILTER_CPU and
FILTER_COMM are left alone, their create_hist_field() branches never
look at the field.

a5e70ba87c tracing: Fix memory corruption from the histogram stacktrace modifier
parse_field() sets HIST_FIELD_FL_STACKTRACE from the ".stacktrace"
modifier before it looks the field name up, and nothing afterwards
checks that the name resolved to a field which holds a stacktrace.
create_hist_field() picks HIST_FIELD_FN_STACK on the strength of the
field pointer alone, which reads a __data_loc word from the record and
follows its low 16 bits as an offset into the same record.
event_hist_trigger() takes the first word there as an entry count and
copies that many longs into a 31 entry array:

	n_entries = *stack;
	memcpy(entries, ++stack, n_entries * sizeof(unsigned long));

Neither end of that copy is bounded, and the count is whatever the event
holds at the offset, so any field will do:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_fork
  # echo 'hist:keys=parent_pid.stacktrace' > trigger
  # (true)

resolve to no field at all, "hitcount.stacktrace" and the common_*

92383cef66 tracing: Undo the registration when enabling the histogram trigger fails
Commit 6f86bdeab6 ("tracing: Fix bad hist from corrupting named_triggers
list") described how a trigger that is registered but not on file->triggers
ends up freed while still on the global named_triggers list, and moved the
registration down so that hist_trigger_enable() follows it immediately. One
path still gets there. hist_trigger_enable() adds the trigger and takes it
straight back out when the event cannot be enabled:

	list_add_tail_rcu(&data->list, &file->triggers);

	update_cond_flag(file);

	if (trace_event_trigger_enable_disable(file, 1) < 0) {
		list_del_rcu(&data->list);
		update_cond_flag(file);
		ret--;
	}

so the list walk in hist_unregister_trigger() matches nothing, test stays
NULL, and the ->free() that would call del_named_trigger() is skipped.
out_unreg falls through to out_free, which frees the trigger anyway:

 BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in find_named_trigger+0xac/0xc0

 Freed by task 69:
  kfree+0x154/0x420
  trigger_kthread_fn+0xfd/0x160

Leave the trigger where hist_unregister_trigger() can find it and let that
undo the registration, which is the only code that knows all of what
cmd_ops->init() took: the named list entry, the hist_pad reference, the
reference on the trigger a named histogram is shared with, and the copied
cmd_ops. It also pairs the failed trace_event_trigger_enable_disable(),
whose sm_ref and buffered event reference are otherwise left behind.

Since ->free() releases trigger_data and, for a trigger that does not share
its histogram, hist_data with it, out_unreg can no longer fall through to
out_free. For a trigger that does share, hist_register_trigger() has
already destroyed the caller's hist_data, so the fall-through was reading
freed memory there as well.

Move the enable_timestamps check in hist_unregister_trigger() above the
->free() call for the same reason: hist_data does not outlive it once the
trigger being removed is the one that owns it.

event_hist_trigger_named_init() puts the trigger on the global

event_hist_trigger_init() fails when alloc_hist_pad() cannot allocate, and
nothing takes the trigger back off the list on the way out.
event_hist_trigger_parse() frees it, and the next lookup by name reads the

6ede78d056 tracing: Set the trace clock before registering the histogram trigger
hist_register_trigger() puts the trigger on the global named_triggers
list in cmd_ops->init(), and only then sets the trace clock:

	if (data->cmd_ops->init) {
		ret = data->cmd_ops->init(data);
		if (ret < 0)

The clock string is not checked anywhere before that call, so a named
trigger using common_timestamp with an unknown clock fails after it has
already become findable. event_hist_trigger_parse() then frees it
without taking it off the list, and the next lookup by name reads the
freed object:

3d617bfd79 tracing: Let histogram values keep the percent and graph modifiers
The .percent and .graph modifiers exist only for histogram values, but a
value carrying either of them has been rejected since v6.3. The example
in Documentation/trace/histogram.rst,

  # echo 'hist:keys=prev_comm:vals=hitcount.percent:nohitcount' > \
	 events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

returns -EINVAL.

parse_field() sets the two flags only when the field is neither a key nor
a variable, that is, only on a value:

	} else if (strncmp(modifier, "percent", 7) == 0) {
		if (*flags & (HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR | HIST_FIELD_FL_KEY))
			goto error;
		*flags |= HIST_FIELD_FL_PERCENT;

__create_val_field() then rejects a value for carrying them, so no field
can reach hist_trigger_print_val(), where both are implemented.

commit e0213434fe ("tracing: Do not let histogram values have some
modifiers") added the check after a value with .buckets oopsed in
hist_field_name(). That happens because .buckets and .log2 make
create_hist_field() build a nested field in operands[0] which
hist_field_name() then walks into. The percent and graph flags do not
create an operand and are not read by hist_field_name(); they are only
used when printing a value.

Stop rejecting the two flags on a value. The check for variables is left
alone, where they are unreachable anyway because parse_field() rejects a
variable carrying them first.

With the two flags removed, the trigger above installs and prints as
documented:

06f5634ec5 tracing: Keep the entry count when the histogram stats allocation fails
print_entries() uses n_entries both as the number of sort entries and as
its own return value, so the -ENOMEM it stores when the stats allocation
fails overwrites the count that the cleanup still needs:

	n_entries = tracing_map_sort_entries(map, ...);
	if (n_entries < 0)
		return n_entries;
	...
			if (!stats) {
				n_entries = -ENOMEM;
				goto out;
			}
	...
 out:
	tracing_map_destroy_sort_entries(sort_entries, n_entries);

tracing_map_destroy_sort_entries() takes an unsigned int and loops up to
it, so -ENOMEM arrives as 4294967284. It walks an array of at most
map->max_elts pointers and calls destroy_sort_entry(), which dereferences
and frees, on whatever lies past the end.

Reading the hist file of a trigger with a .percent value, with that
allocation forced to fail:

  BUG: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in tracing_map_destroy_sort_entries+0xa0/0xb0

  The buggy address belongs to a 4-page vmalloc region starting at
  ffffc90000041000 allocated at tracing_map_sort_entries+0x5c/0xd50

A few pages further the fault is fatal. The registers at the oops confirm
the bound: the loop's end pointer less the array start, over the pointer
size, is 4294967284.

Return the error in a separate variable and leave n_entries holding the
count, the way tracing_map_sort_entries() does on its own error path.

The stats block is only entered for a value carrying .percent or .graph,
which __create_val_field() has rejected since v6.3, so this cannot be
reached in mainline as it stands. It becomes reachable again with
"tracing: hist: let values keep the percent and graph modifiers", so it
should be applied first.

230234d12c tracing: Free histogram the field rejected for a bad modifier
Writing a hist trigger whose value or variable carries a modifier that is
not allowed there leaks the fields that were built for it.

__create_val_field() takes the field from parse_expr() and stores it in
hist_data->fields[] only after the modifier checks have run:

	hist_field = parse_expr(hist_data, file, field_str, flags, var_name,
				&n_subexprs);
	...
	if (hist_field->flags & HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR) {
		if (hist_field->flags & (...))
			goto err;
	} else {
		if (hist_field->flags & (...))
			goto err;
	}

	hist_data->fields[val_idx] = hist_field;

Both checks jump past that store, and the err label returns without
freeing anything. The error unwinds to create_hist_data(), which calls
destroy_hist_data() -> destroy_hist_fields(), and that reaches a field
only by walking fields[]. A field that never got there is unreachable.

commit e0213434fe ("tracing: Do not let histogram values have some
modifiers") set ret to -EINVAL and fell through to the store, which left
the field owned by fields[] and freed along with the rest of hist_data.
Splitting the check into a value case and a variable case replaced that
fall-through with a goto that skips it.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK, 200 writes of

  # echo 'hist:keys=prev_pid:vals=next_pid.log2' > \
	 events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

each correctly rejected with -EINVAL, leave 332 unreferenced objects
(63744 bytes) reported at create_hist_field(); 200 install and remove
cycles of a valid trigger leave none. A '.log2' field is two
allocations, since create_hist_field() puts the plain field in
operands[0] of the log2 field, and both are reported.

Use destroy_hist_field() rather than __destroy_hist_field() so that
operands[0] is freed as well. It returns early for HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR_REF,
which is what an operand owned by hist_data->var_refs[] needs; the
rejected field itself is never a var ref, because a var ref never carries
a modifier flag.

516001d53e tracing: Free histogram the var ref when its initialization fails
create_var_ref() allocates a VAR_REF hist_field and then calls
init_var_ref() to fill it in. When that fails the field is leaked.

commit 656fe2ba85 ("tracing: Use hist trigger's var_ref array to destroy
var_refs") made destroy_hist_field() return early for
HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR_REF, since var refs are freed by walking the trigger's
var_refs[] array instead. create_var_ref() adds the field to that array
only after init_var_ref() has succeeded, so on this path the field is in
neither place and nothing frees it. The call was correct when it was
written, before var refs were taken out of destroy_hist_field().

init_var_ref() cannot free it either. The caller owns the field, so
init_var_ref() undoes only its own string allocations and leaves the
field alone. Freeing it there would leave create_var_ref() passing freed
memory to destroy_hist_field(), which reads its flags.

Call __destroy_hist_field(), which frees the field without consulting
the flag.

4bddcb346a tracing: Free histogram var refs regardless of how often they are referenced
Using the same variable three or more times in one hist trigger leaks the
variable reference and its strings when the trigger is removed.

commit 656fe2ba85 ("tracing: Use hist trigger's var_ref array to destroy
var_refs") made a trigger's var_refs[] array the only owner of a var ref:
destroy_hist_field() returns early for HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR_REF, so the field
expressions never destroy one. One entry, freed once, no count needed.

commit 8bcebc77e8 ("tracing: Fix histogram code when expression has same
var as value") then made repeated references share one object and added a
count of them. Only the increment side exists, since those expressions
still return early and never drop a reference, so __destroy_hist_field()
sees how many references were created rather than how many are left. It
frees when the decremented count is 0 or 1, so two references work and
three or more leak.

Sharing kept one array entry per object, and create_var_ref() searches and
appends within a single trigger, so nothing outside it holds the object.
Removing a trigger whose variables are still referenced is already refused
by check_var_refs() with -EBUSY. Drop the count and free unconditionally.

0701995aaf function_graph: Use the saved entry's size when reprinting it
When a graph entry does not fit in the trace_seq, print_graph_entry()
saves it in the iterator's fgraph_data and reprints it on the next read.
The entry has already been consumed from the ring buffer by then, so the
copy is all that is left of it.

The copy is sized with iter->ent_size, which no longer describes the
saved entry but whatever entry the iterator has moved on to. The
argument count is derived from the same field, so a 72 byte entry saved
and then reprinted ahead of a 48 byte return entry loses its arguments.

Record the size next to the failure flag, so that the two are always set
together, and restore it before reprinting.

08cacffeef ftrace: fork: Initialize function graph state before copy_exec_state()
dup_task_struct() copies the parent's task_struct, including ret_stack.
ftrace_graph_init_task() clears the copied function graph state, but it
currently runs after copy_exec_state().

For non-CLONE_VM forks, copy_exec_state() allocates a new task_exec_state.
If that allocation fails, copy_process() reaches bad_fork_free and
free_task() calls ftrace_graph_exit_task(). Since the child still carries
the parent's ret_stack pointer, the unwind frees the parent's active
function graph return stack. The parent subsequently accesses freed memory
from function_graph_enter_regs().

2deb753127 tracing/user_events: Don't destroy fields when event removal fails
destroy_user_event() destroys the event's fields before attempting to
remove the trace event call. If user_event_set_call_visible() fails,
e.g. because the event is still enabled and trace_remove_event_call()
returns -EBUSY, the event is left registered with an irreversibly
destroyed field list. Any subsequent interaction with the event then
operates on an empty field list while it is still fully visible in
tracefs.

Move the field destruction after the call removal, and splice the
field list back onto the event when the removal fails so the event
remains in a consistent state.

c5dcb3aadc hrtimer: Use hard expiry when updating timers on the same base
Rearming a queued timer with nonzero slack can leave the timerqueue out
of order. remove_and_enqueue_same_base() checks the new soft expiry
against its neighbours' hard expiries, then stores the new hard expiry
in the node without requeueing it.

For example, with A at 10 and B at 20, rearming A at 11 with slack 30
passes the neighbour check but leaves A's hard expiry of 41 before B's
20. The same function also caches the soft expiry in base->expires_next
when updating or inserting the first timer, giving next-event selection
an earlier deadline than the queue head's hard expiry.

Set the timer expiry before handling the queue. Use its stored hard
expiry for the in-place ordering check and both updates to
base->expires_next.

The early update is safe because remove_and_enqueue_same_base() runs
with base->cpu_base->lock held. The lock keeps the queue stable while
hrtimer_can_update_in_place() checks the new expiry against both
neighbours. If the check fails, timerqueue_linked_del() removes the node
without comparing expiry values before it is reinserted.

b0b3dc6652 bpf: Fix divide-by-zero in btf_struct_walk()
When an access goes past the struct and the last member is a flexible
array, btf_struct_walk() folds the offset back into a single element with
(off - moff) % t->size, but never checks that the element type has a size.

BTF takes an empty struct, so this in program BTF

	/* event could be empty */
	struct event {
 #ifdef HAVE_TIMESTAMP
		__u64 ts;
 #endif
	};

	struct batch {
		int nr;
		struct event events[];
	};

divides by zero at prog load time. Getting there needs a PTR_TO_BTF_ID that
is not MEM_ALLOC, e.g. a plain read of a local kptr stashed in a map from a
sleepable program.

check_stack_write_fixed_off() breaks the scalar link on a narrowing spill
by zeroing the id of the destination stack slot, but leaves the delta in
place. save_register_state() has just copied the source register verbatim,
so the slot keeps the BPF_ADD_CONST delta of a register it is no longer
linked to. This is the same shape as the case addressed in 1b327732c8

the latter, no miscomputation seems reachable, so mainly consistency.

81c975aae3 bpf: Require CAP_PERFMON for kfuncs reading memory
Mark fault-safe probe reading kfuncs as KF_PERFMON, similarly as we do for
the old-style BPF helper equivalents. bpf_rdonly_cast() is included in this
list as well as it returns PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY | PTR_UNTRUSTED for an
unchecked object and is using fault-safe BPF_PROBE_MEM.

Note that only the void form of bpf_rdonly_cast() produced a register that
was readable without CAP_PERFMON. For a struct type id the kfunc returns
PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_UNTRUSTED, whose dereference has always been gated in
check_ptr_to_btf_access(). The flag is not conditional on the type id, so
for the latter it only moves the rejection from the dereference to the call
itself, which is the better place to report it anyway.

The bpf_stream_vprintk() and bpf_stream_print_stack() kfuncs are marked
as well. The former ends up in the same bpf_bprintf_prepare() as the
bpf_snprintf() helper, where %pks, %pus and %pI4 read through a program-
supplied address and %pB resolves one into a symbol. The latter walks the
stack and prints each instruction pointer via %pS.

Lastly, bpf_get_kmem_cache() takes a raw scalar address that the verifier
does not constrain and dereferences the page/slab metadata for it. Field
reads on the returned pointer are still blocked (PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_UNTRUSTED
-> check_ptr_to_btf_access() results in -EPERM without the CAP), but the
NULL/non-NULL result is observable.

which can be used such that check_kfunc_call() ensures env->allow_ptr_leaks
is permitted. This follows similar pattern to existing KF_DESTRUCTIVE flag.

The rejection returns -EPERM to match the other CAP_PERFMON gates in the

which report the very same policy to user space.

f5741d2b34 sched/core: Call wq_worker_tick() for the execution context
wq_worker_tick() accounts CPU time and detects CPU-intensive work for
the kworker that is actually running. With proxy execution, rq->donor
is the scheduling context while rq->curr is the execution context.

Calling the hook with rq->donor can skip workqueue accounting when a
kworker is executing on behalf of a donor task. It can also account a
blocked kworker when the donor is a worker but rq->curr is the task
actually executing. The former can delay WORKER_CPU_INTENSIVE handling
and pool concurrency management, which can delay pending kernel work
and userspace operations depending on it.

Use rq->curr for the workqueue tick hook while retaining rq->donor for
scheduler accounting.

c23810313b sched: Account cgroup CPU time to the execution context
Proxy execution separates the scheduling context from the execution
context. Commit aa4f74dfd4 ("sched: Fix runtime accounting w/ split
exec & sched contexts") made per-task and thread-group runtime
accounting follow the task that actually executes, while cgroup CPU
usage is charged to the donor.

When the donor and execution task belong to different cgroups, this
makes a task's execution time count against a different cgroup from the
one the task belongs to.

Cgroup CPU usage should follow the execution context, matching the
per-task, thread-group, and cgroup user/system accounting. Keep
scheduling state associated with the donor, but charge cgroup CPU
usage to rq->curr.

A reproducer with the donor and execution task in separate cgroups
showed the execution task accumulating runtime while cgroup CPU usage
was charged to the donor's cgroup. With this change, the execution
task's cgroup accumulates the CPU usage instead. The same behavior was
verified with an RT donor and with legacy cpuacct accounting.

59e63416f5 perf/core: Allow list_del during perf_event_overflow()
A PMU might use perf_sched_cb_inc() and perf_sched_cb_dec()
interface to get the PMU call back function pmu::sched_task
invoked at schedule in and schedule out. This is achieved
by walking along the list anchored by sched_cb_list.

The following scenario might lead to a list corruption.

   perf_pmu_sched_task()
      for_each_list_entry(..., &sched_cb_list)
      +--> __perf_pmu_sched_task()
           +--> event->pmu->sched_task())
                +--> PMU_push_sample()
                     +--> perf_event_overflow()
                          +--> __perf_event_overflow()
                               +--> pmu->stop()
                                    +--> perf_sched_cb_dec()
                                         remove entry from sched_cb_list
                                         while list node in use.

This happens when ioctl(fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_REFRESH, xxx) has been
invoked and perf_event::event_limit hits zero.

Prevent the list corruption and convert for_each_list_entry()
to for_each_list_entry_safe().

nstree: check listing permission before taking a namespace reference
legitimize_ns() takes a reference on the candidate namespace before
may_list_ns() has decided whether the caller may see it. The
__free(ns_put) cleanup on the denied path can drop the last reference to a
mount namespace while we still hold the rcu read lock, and put_mnt_ns()
may sleep there. This is the same problem commit 2ec2aff3c8 ("ns: make
sure reference are dropped outside of rcu lock") fixed for the put_user()
path. Neither ns_requested() nor may_list_ns() needs a reference, both
only look at the namespace type and at the caller's own namespaces, so do
the checks first and take the reference last.

b7d7914a9a swiotlb: use the adjusted address for the highmem page lookup
swiotlb_bounce() reads the page frame number from the slot's recorded
orig_addr, then advances orig_addr by tlb_offset to reach the address
the caller asked about. The highmem branch mixes the two: the offset
within the page comes from the adjusted address, the page from the value
before it.

Once the adjustment crosses a page boundary the pair no longer describes
one location, and the whole copy lands one page below the intended one
for a positive tlb_offset, one above for a negative one. DMA_FROM_DEVICE
writes the device data over the wrong page and leaves the intended one
stale, DMA_TO_DEVICE feeds the device from a page the mapping may not
cover. Partial syncs through dma_sync_single_range_for_*() are what make
tlb_offset non-zero.

The branch test is picked the same way, so a slot recorded in lowmem can
be adjusted into highmem and the lowmem path then hands a highmem
address to phys_to_virt().

Take both from orig_addr once it is final and keep pfn in the branch
that uses it. PhysHighMem() asks the question straight from the address,
as dma-debug already does.

504981db4f dma-coherent: report a failed reserved memory assignment
rmem_dma_device_init() drops the return value of
dma_assign_coherent_memory() and always reports success. That call fails
with -EBUSY when the device already has a coherent pool, and the file
allows only "*one* such region of memory" per device.

of_reserved_mem_device_init_by_idx() reads the zero as success. It logs
"assigned reserved memory node" for a region that was not assigned and
records the pairing, so of_reserved_mem_device_release() later runs
rmem_dma_device_release() for it. That clears dev->dma_mem without
looking at which region it was called for, dropping the pool the device
did get and leaving it on ordinary memory.

dma_declare_coherent_memory() checks the same call and releases the
memory on failure, and rmem_swiotlb_device_init() propagates its own
errors. Return the error here as well, so a device tree that assigns two
pools to one device fails the probe instead of half working.

Commit 8d75c338f0 ("sysctl: remove CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL, it just mirrors
CONFIG_SYSCTL") removed CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL, but the sysctl added by
commit 5b6e32ba7b ("syscall_user_dispatch: Add
kernel.syscall_user_dispatch sysctl") is still guarded by it. Now that
both commits are merged, kernel.syscall_user_dispatch is no longer
registered.

syscall_user_dispatch_allowed defaults to true. SUD therefore remains
available, but administrators cannot disable new activations.

Use CONFIG_SYSCTL for the guard and documentation.

113a9796ef tick/broadcast: Plug clockevents replacement race
朱恺乾 reported and decoded the following race condition when a broadcast
device is replaced:

CPUA					CPUB
 __tick_broadcast_oneshot_control()
   bc = tick_broadcast_device.evtdev;
					tick_install_broadcast_device(dev)
        				clockevents_exchange_device(cur, dev)
					   shutdown(cur);
					   detach(cur);
					   cur->handler = noop;
					   tick_broadcast_device.evtdev = dev;

  tick_broadcast_set_event(bc, next_event); <- FAIL: arms a detached device.

If the original broadcast device has a restricted interrupt affinity mask
and the last CPU in that mask goes offline then the BUG() in
tick_cleanup_dead_cpu() triggers because the clockevent device is not in
detached state.

The reason for this is that tick_install_broadcast_device() is not
serialized vs. tick broadcast operations.

The obvious cure is to serialize tick_install_broadcast_device() with
tick_broadcast_lock against a concurrent tick broadcast operation.

That requires to split clockevents_exchange_device() into two parts, one
which does the exchange, shutdown and detach operation and the other which
drops the module reference count. This is required because the module
reference cannot be dropped while holding tick_broadcast_lock.

Let clockevents_exchange_device() do both operations as before, but let the
broadcast device code take the two step approach and do the device
exchange under tick_broadcast_lock and drop the module reference count
after releasing it.

b1e00ffaf9 tracing fixes for v7.3:
- Fix several tracefs files that did not take the trace_array reference
 
   A trace instance can be created and destroyed in the tracefs "instances"
   directory via mkdir and rmdir respectively. The instance is represented by
   a trace_array descriptor. Most tracefs files pass the trace_array as the
   private data of the inode to the open/read/write functions. Since there is
   no locking between the time a task opens a file and the deletion of the
   instance (and the freeing of the trace_array), each open needs to get a
   reference to the trace_array and each close must remove it. A instance
   can't be removed if there's any reference taken on its trace_array. The
   open function uses trace_array_get() that takes a lock (preventing removal
   of instances) and iterates the list of all existing trace_arrays and if it
   finds a match, it takes the reference and releases the lock. If it doesn't
   find a match, it causes the open to return -ENODEV.
 
   There were some added files that did not take the trace_array reference
   on open that needed to be fixed. Sashiko also correctly pointed out that
   there were some files that took an address of an field or element of the
   trace_array which had a pointer back to the trace_array to take its
   reference on open. But this leaves a slight race between referencing this
   element to get the trace_array as the element itself could be freed. To
   solve this, some helper functions were created to look for trace_arrays
   with this field or element in the search so that the element did not have
   to be dereferenced before the trace_array's reference was taken.
 
 - Add a lock around ftrace_ops initialization
 
   When a ftrace_ops is first used by ftrace, some internal initialization is
   performed on the ops. But if multiple tasks were calling functions that
   did this initialization, it could race and perform doing the
   initialization more than once, corrupting the internal data. Add a lock in
   the initialization code to prevent this from happening.
 
 - Fix splice reads on mmapped buffers
 
   The logic in the ring buffer splice code for mmapped buffers is supposed
   to do a copy of the memory as the mapped buffers can't be given to splice.
   But there was an if statement within the copy code that would return a -1
   if a request for a full page was done and it wasn't a partial read. This
   is because this logic was written before mmapped buffers existed and this
   case didn't make sense at the time. For mmapped buffers it makes perfect
   sense and by returning early can drop a lot of pages unnecessarily.
 
 - Have the persistent ring buffer validation check nr_subbufs
 
   Sashiko reported that the validation code was relying on the saved
   nr_subbufs to match the calculated nr_pages + 1 and if they were off, that
   the code could cause corruption. Sashiko is correct, and the saved
   nr_subbufs should be validated before assuming it is correct.
 
 - Do not allow more than one instance with the same name on cmdline
 
   If an admin were to add more than one trace instances with the same name
   they all would be created, but only the first one would be accessible via
   tracefs. This used to not be allowed but some restructuring of code has
   since made it possible.
 
 - Fix the race between subbuf resize and trace_pipe_raw readers
 
   If a task was reading trace_pipe_raw while another task was changing the
   ring buffer subbuf size, it could crash the reader. The trace_pipe_raw
   readers do get their own copy of the page from the buffer, but the code
   needs some restructuring to not have the resize of the subbuffers cause
   issues.
 
 - Cap the size of the mapped (static) ring buffer nr_pages
 
   The meta data used for ring buffer mapped buffers is 32 bit in size. A
   normal ring buffer could (in theory) have more than 4 billion pages.
   But this is not allowed by mapped buffers, so enforce it.

c3fd8e5fd1 bpf: Reject non-scalar bpf_loop iteration counts
bpf_loop() declares its nr_loops argument as ARG_ANYTHING. Privileged
programs may pass pointer values to such arguments, so check_func_arg()
lets a pointer-valued R1 reach the helper-specific checks.

Since commit bb124da69c ("bpf: keep track of max number of bpf_loop
callback iterations"), the verifier marks R1 precise and reads its upper
bound to limit callback simulation. Precision backtracking only accepts
scalar registers, so passing a pointer instead triggers the "backtracking
misuse" verifier warning. Kernels with panic_on_warn enabled subsequently
panic.

Introduce ARG_SCALAR for helper arguments that only accept scalar values
and use it for bpf_loop() nr_loops. Generic helper argument validation then
rejects pointers before loop inlining and precision processing.

Fixes: bb124da69c ("bpf: keep track of max number of bpf_loop callback iterations")

90f19b2816 sched_ext: Use @prev's scheduler for the keep decisions in dispatch_one()
dispatch_one() tests ops flags and bypass state against the root scheduler
in both places where it decides to keep running @prev: the early keep of a
@prev with slice left tests the root's bypass state, and the keep-last at
the end tests the root's SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST and bypass state. Both are
properties of the scheduler @prev belongs to, and put_prev_task_scx(), which
acts on the outcome, reads them from that scheduler. When @prev belongs to a
sub-scheduler the two sides disagree.

The keep-last case is visible. The root set SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST, so a lone
@prev of a sub-scheduler is not kept and is enqueued with SCX_ENQ_LAST to a
sub-scheduler that never opted in. This trips the WARN_ON_ONCE in
put_prev_task_scx() for the missing flag, and the sub-scheduler queues the
task like any other and triggers no follow-up scheduling event, which can
lead to stalls.

Test SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST and bypass state on @prev's sched in both places and
charge SCX_EV_DISPATCH_KEEP_LAST to it. Read the sched at each decision, as
the dispatch in between can drop the rq lock.

3a2c4d55e3 treewide: refresh kmalloc_obj() conversions
This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc()
family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci

This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first
kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the
first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h
scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's
"--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped
to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control
flow indicator I could find.

Build tested allmodconfig on x86, arm64, arm, loongarch, mips, powerpc,
riscv, and s390 with no new warnings.

The comment about returning an error if the read fails on the first
iteration is slightly incorrect. It makes it sound like the only reason it
could fail on a later iteration is if the subbuf order changed. That is
incorrect, it could also fail if the length passed in was not a multiple
of the subbuf size. Fix the comment.

c843fd3c73 ring-buffer: Prevent truncation of nr_pages / nr_subbufs
Although ring_buffer_per_cpu::nr_pages is defined as unsigned long, it
is capped to 32-bits in a few places, limiting the operations possible
on a very large buffer. Use `unsigned long` where appropriate and
prevent truncation of values using nr_pages (or nr_subbufs).

While at it, subbuf_size must be at least `unsigned int`.

Note that persistent, remote and user-mapped ring buffers are capping
the number of pages to 30 bits already, making "int" safe in many
places.

dae8dda341 tracing: Fix subbuf resize races with trace_pipe_raw readers
Concurrent subbuffer resizes may crash trace_pipe_raw readers or leak
uninitialized memory to userspace due to stale size values.

Modify ring_buffer_alloc_read_page() to handle the resizing of an
existing buffer_data_read_page if necessary and add a new
ring_buffer_read_page_size(). This new function enables ring-buffer
buffer_data_read_page users to not call the racy

ftrace_buffer_info redundant.

b90c5d770d bpf: Preserve inner map identity in callback frames
Callback frame constructors initialize map-typed argument registers with
__mark_reg_known_zero() and then restore map_ptr. This clears map_uid,
which is the only field distinguishing inner maps that share an
inner_map_meta template.

When a timer callback invokes bpf_for_each_map_elem() on a second inner
map, both the saved first map and the second map value can reach the nested
callback as the same template with map_uid zero. bpf_timer_init() then
accepts pairing the timer from the second map with the first map.

The runtime records the first map in the timer without taking a reference.
Freeing that map does not find the timer stored in the second map, so a
later timer callback dereferences the freed map.

Copy map_uid from the same caller register as map_ptr when constructing
for-each, timer/workqueue, and task-work callback arguments. The existing
identity check can then reject mismatched inner maps while allowing a
callback value to be paired with its actual map.

ecdc504379 bpf: Mark NULL kptr stores precise
check_map_kptr_access() permits a scalar store into an untrusted kptr
field only when the register is known to contain zero. Unlike other
verifier checks whose outcome depends on a scalar value, it does not mark
that register precise.

A state checkpoint reached with an imprecise zero can therefore prune a
second path that reaches the store with an arbitrary nonzero scalar. The
program can write attacker-controlled bits into the kptr field and load
them back as a PTR_TO_BTF_ID.

Call mark_chain_precision() before accepting a known-zero register. This
forces state equivalence to compare its scalar range and makes the verifier
visit and reject a path carrying a nonzero value.

65cc95eba9 bpf: Cancel special fields when recycling rhtab elements
rhtab_map_update_existing() and rhtab_delete_elem() call
bpf_obj_free_fields() when replacing or deleting a value. These map
operations can run from BPF programs in NMI context, where releasing a
referenced kptr or another complex field is not generally safe.

Array and hash maps avoid that problem by cancelling only the asynchronous
fields which can be stopped safely in the caller context. Other ownership
state remains attached to the allocation until its memory allocator
destructor performs the final cleanup.

Use bpf_obj_cancel_fields() for the corresponding rhtab paths as well. This
cancels timers, workqueues, and task work while allowing rhtab_mem_dtor() to
release referenced kptrs when the allocation is eventually destroyed.

5df46ddcb7 bpf: Preserve special fields in recycled rhtab elements
rhtab_map_update_elem() initializes special fields after obtaining an
element from bpf_mem_cache_alloc(). The allocator can return a fresh,
zeroed unit, or recycle one from its RCU-pending lists before the
registered destructor has run.

A BPF program can retain a map-value pointer after deleting its element
and initialize and arm a timer through that pointer. If the deleted unit
is recycled, check_and_init_map_value() clears the only pointer to the
timer. Neither a later deletion nor rhtab_mem_dtor() can then cancel it,
and the callback can run with its key and value pointing into freed memory.

Do not reinitialize special fields on insertion. Fresh allocator units are
already zeroed. For recycled units, the special fields are ownership state
that must remain visible to the eventual destructor. copy_map_value()
already skips those fields, matching the non-preallocated hash-map path and
the lifecycle established by commit 275c30bcee ("bpf: Don't reinit map
value in prealloc_lru_pop").

cd6f72d7f3 bpf: Clear NON_OWN_REF after RCU protection ends
A local kptr load of an object containing a graph node is marked MEM_RCU
and NON_OWN_REF while protected by RCU. When the last RCU read-side critical
section ends, invalidate_rcu_protected_refs() removes MEM_RCU and marks the
pointer PTR_UNTRUSTED, but leaves NON_OWN_REF set.

The stale flag lets graph kfunc argument checks continue treating the
pointer as a live borrowed reference. In particular, bpf_rbtree_remove()
can accept a pointer after its protection ended and return it as a new
owning reference, even though the object may already have been freed.

Clear NON_OWN_REF when an RCU-protected pointer is demoted. A spin lock also
provides implicit RCU protection, so invalidate non-owning references before
demoting RCU-protected pointers when releasing the lock. Otherwise the
demotion would clear the flag before invalidate_non_owning_refs() can find
and invalidate those aliases.

The demoted pointer remains available for fault-protected reads. Exempt such
reads from the allocated-object reference-state assertion; writes through a
fault-prone pointer are already rejected, and bpf_may_fault_on_deref() makes
the surviving loads use BPF_PROBE_MEM.

dc36739e5c bpf: Keep refcount_acquire nullable for borrowed RCU kptrs
bpf_refcount_acquire() is fallible for a borrowed reference because the
object may have reached a zero refcount. The verifier therefore keeps
KF_RET_NULL on the return value unless the argument is an owning reference.

An RCU-protected load of a local kptr is marked MEM_ALLOC, but it only
receives NON_OWN_REF when the pointee contains a graph node. A refcounted
object without a graph node consequently looks like an owning reference
even though the loaded register has no acquired reference state. If the
program drops the last real reference while remaining in the RCU critical
section, refcount_inc_not_zero() returns NULL while the verifier treats the
result as non-NULL.

Only classify the argument as owning when it is backed by a verifier-tracked
reference. This retains the non-NULL return for pointers from bpf_obj_new(),
bpf_kptr_xchg(), or an earlier successful acquisition, while requiring a
NULL check for borrowed RCU kptrs.

048029ba1c bpf: Require MEM_PERCPU for percpu kptr stores
map_kptr_match_type() treats perm_flags as the set of register type flags
that a kptr field permits. Adding MEM_PERCPU to that set for
BPF_KPTR_PERCPU does not require the source register to carry it, however.
The subset test consequently accepts both a plain bpf_obj_new() allocation
and a referenced kernel pointer into a __percpu_kptr map field.

Loads from the field are always marked MEM_PERCPU. Consumers then treat the
stored value as the cookie returned by bpf_percpu_obj_new(): per-CPU pointer
helpers relocate it, and map teardown selects the per-CPU free path. A plain
allocation can therefore provide an arbitrary kernel read/write, while a
kernel pointer can be relocated into an invalid address or sent through a
missing destructor.

Require the source MEM_PERCPU flag to match the destination field kind.
This preserves valid bpf_percpu_obj_new() stores and rejects both the
program-BTF and kernel-BTF variants.

bpf: Mark the zero register precise for a register-form NULL check
check_cond_jmp_op() accepts "if rA <op> rB" as a NULL check for a
nullable pointer rA when rB is a scalar known to be zero,
lifts PTR_MAYBE_NULL from rA in the corresponding branch and does not
mark rB precise. Consider the following program:

  r0 = bpf_get_prandom_u32();
  r6 = 1;                  /* the r6 == 0 path is explored first */
  if (r0 == 0) goto 1f;
  r6 = 0;
1:
  r0 = bpf_map_lookup_elem(map, &0);  /* absent, NULL at runtime */
  if (r0 == r6) goto 2f;   /* taken as a NULL check for r0       */
  *(u8 *)(r0 + 0);         /* verifier: map value; runtime: zero */
2:
  return 0;

The r6 == 0 path is explored first and the dereference is accepted.
The r6 == 1 path is pruned at the checkpoint recorded for (1),
so the comparison is never verified with a non-zero r6. At runtime a
failed lookup returns NULL, NULL != 1 takes the non-NULL edge and the
program dereferences a pointer that is zero.

collect_linked_regs() records at most LINKED_REGS_MAX members of a

from that.

As a consequence, sync_linked_regs() might adjust ranges for more

bpf: Don't infer non-NULL from a pointer with an unbounded offset
reg_not_null() decides that a register holds a non-NULL value by
looking at its type alone. For pointer types that allow arithmetic the
type only guarantees a non-NULL base, in case of an unbound offset
the runtime offset value might still add up to NULL.
Consider the followng program:

  r6 = bpf_map_lookup_elem(map, &0);  /* present */
  if (r6 == 0) return 0;
  r7 = bpf_map_lookup_elem(map, &1);  /* absent, NULL at runtime */
  r8 = r7;
  r8 -= r6;     /* pointer - pointer: unknown scalar, -r6 */
  r8 <<= 1;
  r8 >>= 1;     /* any non-negative offset is accepted by */
                /* check_reg_sane_offset_ptr() */
  r6 += r8;     /* verifier: map value;    runtime: zero  */
  if (r7 != r6) return 0;
  *(u8 *)(r7 + 0);  /* r7 is inferred non-NULL, both are zero */

At runtime both registers are zero, the comparison is true and the
load faults with NULL pointer dereference.

Require the offset to be within +-BPF_MAX_VAR_OFF in reg_not_null().

exit: hold a reference to thread_pid across proc_flush_pid
Commit 0a36bad017 ("release_task: kill the no longer needed
get/put_pid(thread_pid)") removed the reference around proc_flush_pid().
It assumed that free_pids(post.pids) at the end of release_task() would
keep thread_pid alive until then.

That assumption is wrong.  __change_pid() only records a detached PID in
post.pids when pid_has_task() is false for every PIDTYPE.  If another task
still uses the exiting task's PID as its process group or session ID,
__unhash_process() removes the exiting task's PIDTYPE_PID link but leaves
the PID out of post.pids.  release_task() therefore holds no reference to
it after dropping tasklist_lock.

The other task can then remove the remaining PIDTYPE links.  Its
free_pids() call schedules delayed_put_pid(), and the RCU callback can free
the PID before the first release_task() reaches proc_flush_pid().

An unprivileged reproducer races wait4(-1) against setsid() to trigger this
ordering.  Three of three fresh v7.2 KASAN boots reported:

    BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in
    proc_invalidate_siblings_dcache+0x3e2/0x3f0
    Read of size 8 by task h7_pid_reaper/1921

    Freed by task 0:

     delayed_put_pid
     rcu_core

    Last potentially related work creation:
     __call_rcu_common
     free_pids
     ksys_setsid

KASAN identified a 144-byte object from the pid cache and located the bad
read 80 bytes into the freed object, matching pid->inodes.  With an
explicit reference, three of three fresh boots completed without a KASAN
report.  The concurrent RCU callback dropped its reference while
proc_flush_pid() was protected, and the balancing put_pid() performed the
final free afterward.

Take a reference before __unhash_process() clears p->thread_pid and release
it after proc_flush_pid() completes.

A tested source reproducer is available privately on request.  No
controlled read or write, information leak, or privilege escalation is
claimed.  The mainline patch applies directly to v6.19.y and newer;
v6.16.y through v6.18.y need a context-adjusted backport.

a3b8d46fe4 futex: Prevent rcuwait use-after-free during requeue PI
On PREEMPT_RT, FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE_PI can trigger a KASAN report
(slab-out-of-bounds) in futex_requeue_pi_complete() invocation of
rcuwait_wake_up().

The futex_q used by futex_wait_requeue_pi() is allocated on the waiter's
stack. An early wakeup can race with a PI requeue as follows:

        waiter                          requeue task
        ------                          ------------
futex_wait_requeue_pi()
  futex_do_wait()
    schedule()
                                       futex_requeue
                                         futex_proxy_trylock_atomic()
                                           futex_requeue_pi_prepare()
                                            Q_REQUEUE_PI_NONE -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_IN_PROGRESS
* timeout/ signal wakes waiter *
  futex_requeue_pi_wakeup_sync()
   Q_REQUEUE_PI_IN_PROGRESS -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT
                                           requeue_pi_wake_futex
                                             futex_requeue_pi_complete()
                                               cmpxchg Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_LOCKED
    rcuwait_wait_event()
      if (atomic_read(&q->requeue_state) != Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT)
       break /* no schedule() */

 /* q.pi_state->owner == current */
 futex_private_hash_put()
 /* return from syscall */
                                              rcuwait_wake_up(&q->requeue_wait)
                                                /* q is gone */

futex_requeue_pi_complete() publishes Q_REQUEUE_PI_LOCKED before
calling rcuwait_wake_up(). The waiter observes this state in
rcuwait_wait_event() before invoking schedule() in rcuwait_wait_event().
Here, the waiter is free leave the syscall before requeue task can
complete the wake.

To address this race skip rcuwait_wake_up() in the Q_REQUEUE_PI_LOCKED
case.
This state is only published by requeue_pi_wake_futex(), which saves
q->task before futex_requeue_pi_complete() and wakes the waiter via
wake_up_state().

This wake is intended to wake the waiter from its futex_do_wait() sleep.
If the waiter is still sleeping there, it can not get into the
Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT state (and require this removed wake).
Should the waiter be woken up from futex_do_wait() by other means (as in
this example) and sleep in futex_requeue_pi_wakeup_sync() then the
wake_up_state() from requeue_pi_wake_futex() will wake it, too.
Should the waiter task terminate before wake_up_state() had a chance to
wake the task then the task pointer does not become invalid because the
futex_hash_bucket::lock is held and the task pointer is RCU protected.

912edebe85 futex: Provide rt_mutex_.*_schedule() equivalents for futex scheduling
There is rt_mutex_{pre|post}_schedule() around
rt_mutex_wait_proxy_lock() to ensure that sched_submit_work()/
sched_update_worker() is invoked before we schedule out and block on
rt_mutex while waiting for it become available.

The reason is that blocking on rt_mutex assigns a pi_waiter for the PI
chain and sched_submit_work() will also assign a pi_waiter if it blocks
on lock but a this point we already have a waiter assigned.
We can't skip sched_submit_work() entirely because I/O relies on the
fact that I/O queue is flushed while it blocks on a sleeping lock.
Therefore sched_submit_work() is moved before we block on the lock.

Sleeping lock in this context means mutex or rw_semaphore not spinlock_t
on PREEMPT_RT. Because the mutex abstraction on PREEMPT_RT uses the same
abstraction as the futex proxy lock, the futex code ended up using
rt_mutex_{pre|post}_schedule(), too.
Using it is/ was just to keep the task_struct::sched_rt_mutex assertion
happy. Futex proxy lock is used only in the syscall context of a task.
At this point it never got any I/O that needs to be flushed and it can't
be a workqueue that needs to notify that it will be scheduled out.
Therefore sched_submit_work() does nothing here.

By mistake futex_wait_requeue_pi() -> rt_mutex_wait_proxy_lock() did not
get the rt_mutex_{pre|post}_schedule() annotation. This was not noticed
because in this callchain the lock is (usually) not contended and so
rt_mutex_slowlock_block() does not schedule, triggering the assert.

Adding rt_mutex_pre_schedule() here looks wrong (as noted by PeterZ)
because at this point there is a pi_waiter recorded and invoking
sched_submit_work() with a possible lock contention would be wrong.

Add rt_mutex_futex_{pre|post}_schedule() which toggles the
sched_rt_mutex assert and does not involve sched_submit_work(). Add
asserts here to ensure that sched_submit_work() would do nothing. Use it
only in futex proxy lock case which is rt_mutex_wait_proxy_lock().
Remove it from futex_lock_pi().

e7d28823c6 bpf: Reject legacy packet loads from callbacks
check_ld_abs() models a failed BPF_LD_ABS or BPF_LD_IND in a
subprogram as an implicit return with R0 set to zero. It calls
prepare_func_exit() to explore this synthesized path.

When the load is reached directly from a synchronous callback,
prepare_func_exit() enforces the callback return contract and marks R0
precise. R0 is not derived from a real instruction on this path, so
precision backtracking reaches the callback call with R0 still requested
and triggers the "callback unexpected regs" verifier bug. A privileged
program loader can therefore cause a verifier warning and an -EFAULT
BPF_PROG_LOAD.

These legacy packet-load instructions are deprecated. Reject them from
callbacks rather than complicating their implicit-return model. Check all
active frames before constructing the implicit return so nested static
subprograms cannot hide the callback context.

Global functions are verified independently with a fresh frame zero, so
an active-frame check cannot identify a global function called from a
callback. Also check the complete subprogram call graph during stack-depth
validation and reject a function containing a legacy load when any caller
is a callback. This covers global and static descendants without making
has_ld_abs transitive, preserving its per-function BTF return-type check.
Ordinary uses outside callbacks remain supported.

9d02927fdf bpf: Mark faultable stack helpers as sleepable
The faultable variants of bpf_get_stack() and bpf_get_task_stack() pass
may_fault=true into the common stack collection code. Resolving user-space
build IDs may then call build_id_parse_file() and block on filesystem
reads.

Neither helper prototype sets might_sleep. Since prototype selection uses
the sleepability of the whole program, the verifier can still allow these
helpers from a non-sleepable region within that program, such as an
explicit RCU or preemption-disabled region. The task-stack helper can also
be called from a non-sleepable timer callback of a sleepable program.

Mark both faultable prototypes as sleepable. The existing helper context
check then rejects these calls while continuing to allow them in genuinely
sleepable contexts.

returns a new BTF object fd through __btf_new_fd(). This reaches
anon_inode_getfd(), which can sleep while allocating or expanding the
current task fd table.

The helper prototype does not set might_sleep, so the verifier allows
the helper in non-sleepable contexts such as BPF timer callbacks. The
fd allocation can then sleep in softirq context and install the fd into
the interrupted task.

Mark the helper as sleepable. This preserves calls from the main body
of a sleepable syscall program while rejecting calls from its
non-sleepable regions.

369f4ce734 bpf: Check ancestor frames for rbtree callbacks
bpf_rbtree_add() invokes its comparator while the caller holds the root
lock. The native insertion code retains raw parent and link pointers across
the callback, so the verifier prohibits unlocking, consuming tree nodes,
or changing RCU state from that callback.

in_rbtree_lock_required_cb() only checks the innermost verifier frame.
Static subprogram calls are permitted while holding a spin lock, and such a
call pushes a frame without in_callback_fn set. Consequently, all callback
restrictions disappear in the nested frame. The subprogram can unlock the
tree, remove and drop the node being compared, then relock. Native insertion
resumes with the stale parent pointer and links freed memory into the tree.

Walk all active frames for the rbtree callback instead. Benign static
subprograms remain permitted, while callback restrictions follow execution
into nested frames.

4814ed6406 bpf: zero extend the result of an arena 32-bit cmpxchg
bpf_convert_ctx_accesses() rewrites an atomic on an arena pointer from
BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC to BPF_STX | BPF_PROBE_ATOMIC, and it runs before
bpf_opt_subreg_zext_lo32_rnd_hi32().

That pass emits an explicit zero extension for a 32-bit cmpxchg even
when bpf_jit_needs_zext() is false. This is done because on some
architectures 32-bit cmpxchg requires explicit zero extension for the
dst register. E.g. on x86-64 'lock cmpxchg' does not change the %eax
if comparison is successful, while BPF semantics declare that each
operation on a 32-bit register zero extends it's upper half.

is_cmpxchg_insn() matches BPF_MODE == BPF_ATOMIC only, so an arena
cmpxchg misses said zero extension adjustment. This patch adjusts
is_cmpxchg_insn() to match BPF_PROBE_ATOMIC alongside BPF_ATOMIC.

0a85182723 sched_ext: Fix NULL sched deref in kfunc sub-sched error paths
When the root scheduler has sub-scheds attached, the COMPAT kfunc
wrappers scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() and scx_bpf_dsq_insert_vtime() refuse
the call and report to @p's scheduler:

	scx_error(scx_task_sched(p), "... must be used");

The wrappers are reachable with tasks that have no scheduler.
scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() is in the select_cpu kfunc group, which
scx_kfunc_context_filter() opens to BPF_PROG_TYPE_SYSCALL programs;
scx_bpf_dsq_insert_vtime() is in the enqueue_dispatch group, which
ops.enqueue() and ops.dispatch() may call with any KF_RCU task -- the
group has no kf_tasks validation, and scx_dsq_insert_preamble() checks
task ownership with scx_task_on_sched() precisely because @p may be an
arbitrary task.

scx_task_sched(p) is p->scx.sched, which is NULL for tasks past
sched_ext_dead() -- which clears it via scx_disable_and_exit_task() on
exit -- and for idle tasks, which the enable paths skip as they are
never scheduled through SCX. It is also an rcu_dereference_protected()
that expects @p's pi_lock or rq lock, which neither wrapper holds.
Passing NULL to scx_error() reaches scx_vexit(), which dereferences
sch->exit_info, oopsing the kernel.

One concrete trigger exercised while developing the fix: a
BPF_PROG_TYPE_SYSCALL program calling the select_cpu_and wrapper on an
exited-but-not-reaped task while a sub-scheduler was attached (its pid
stays findable while the zombie is unreaped; faulting instruction is
the scx_vexit() prologue "mov r15,[rdi+0x398]" with RDI=NULL and 0x398

call as before without faulting any scheduler.

These COMPAT wrappers are scheduled for eventual removal once the

their removal timeline -- they must not oops the kernel on a task they

can register a bpf_timer callback, and the verifier checks that callback
in a non-sleepable context while retaining the syscall helper set.

Without .might_sleep on the prototypes, such a callback can invoke
bpf_sys_bpf() from hrtimer softirq context and trigger a
scheduling-while-atomic failure. bpf_sys_close() is exposed through the
same missing context check.

Set .might_sleep on both prototypes so the existing helper-context check
rejects them from timer callbacks and other atomic regions. Calls from the
sleepable main body remain valid.

a453d6e3b8 bpf: Mark sched_process_wait argument as nullable
do_wait() passes wo->wo_pid to the sched_process_wait tracepoint.
kernel_wait4() leaves wo_pid NULL for wait4(-1), and
kernel_waitid_prepare() does likewise for waitid(P_ALL).

btf_ctx_access() currently types argument 0 as PTR_TO_BTF_ID |
PTR_TRUSTED. Without PTR_MAYBE_NULL, the verifier accepts an unchecked
dereference. Trusted pointer loads have no fault protection, so a wait for
any child can then cause a NULL pointer dereference in JITed BPF code.

Add sched_process_wait to raw_tp_null_args[] with argument 0 marked
nullable. The verifier rejects an unchecked dereference while preserving
access after the program checks the pointer for NULL.

7b7b8b5960 bpf: Reject resilient lock operations in rbtree callbacks
__bpf_rbtree_add() keeps parent and link pointers live across calls to the
program-supplied comparison callback. The verifier therefore requires the
root's lock to remain held throughout the callback.

The helper path enforces this rule for bpf_spin_lock() and
bpf_spin_unlock(), but the resilient lock kfunc argument path does not.
Since resilient locks may protect BPF rbtree roots, a callback can release
the root lock and let another CPU remove and free the node referenced by
the in-progress tree walk. The walk then resumes using freed pointers.

Reject resilient lock kfuncs in an rbtree comparison callback, matching
the existing policy for the spin lock helpers. Resilient-lock-protected
trees remain valid when their comparison callbacks leave lock state alone.

266aa4ad0b bpf: Reject tail calls directly from callback frames
A tail call from a non-zero frame is modeled as a return from that frame.
The verifier makes R0 unknown and calls prepare_func_exit() for the taken
branch.

When the current frame is a synchronous callback, prepare_func_exit()
enforces the callback return-value contract and marks R0 precise. Since the
tail-call path synthesized R0 rather than deriving it from an instruction,
precision backtracking reaches the callback-calling instruction with R0
still requested and triggers the "callback unexpected regs" verifier bug.
A CAP_BPF task can therefore cause a WARN and an -EFAULT BPF_PROG_LOAD.

Tail calls reachable from callbacks are already rejected later by
check_max_stack_depth(). Reject a tail call made directly by a callback
before constructing the inconsistent return state, using the existing
diagnostic. Tail calls from ordinary subprograms keep their current
behavior.

77515ab12e bpf: Mark signal tracepoint siginfo arguments as scalar
The signal_generate and signal_deliver tracepoints declare their info
argument as a struct kernel_siginfo pointer. btf_ctx_access() therefore
treats it as a trusted pointer for tp_btf programs.

Signal delivery also uses SEND_SIG_NOINFO and SEND_SIG_PRIV as special
values for this argument. Those values are zero and one respectively,
and are not pointers. A tp_btf program can currently dereference either
value and fault the kernel. In particular, signal_generate can run from
timer interrupt context, turning the fault into a kernel panic.

Record both tracepoints in raw_tp_null_args[] and mark argument one as
a non-pointer. This preserves scalar access to the cookie while rejecting
direct and helper-mediated pointer use. Merely marking it nullable would
not suffice because SEND_SIG_PRIV is nonzero.

BTF_KIND_UNKN) kind_ops[] has no entry, so ->show is NULL.

0895a0c073 bpf: Reject key-less BTF for hash maps
map_check_btf() allows a key-less BTF (btf_key_type_id == 0) only for
maps that have a ->map_check_btf callback, and leaves the actual
decision to that callback. Hash maps used to have no ->map_check_btf,
so a key-less BTF was rejected outright.

That changed when htab and rhtab gained a ->map_check_btf to register a
dtor - htab in commit 1df97a7453 ("bpf: Register dtor for freeing
special fields") and rhtab in commit 6905f86012 ("bpf: Allow special
fields in resizable hashtab"). Neither looks at the key, so a key-less
hash map now passes map_check_btf() and gets created. Reading it back
through bpffs feeds the key type_id 0 into btf_type_seq_show();
btf_type_by_id() returns the void type, kind_ops[BTF_KIND_UNKN] is NULL,
and btf_type_show() dereferences it:

    ...
  }

The 'ptr' won't be ever converted to contain an address.
In combination with e.g. bpf_timer_set_callback() this would lead to a
function call at a bogus address.

Instead of complicating the implementation, just assume that no useful
program needs main to be a sync or async callback and reject
BPF_PSEUDO_FUNC loads for the main subprogram.

__within_kprobe_blacklist() traverses kprobe_blacklist without holding

insertions, list_del_rcu() for deletions, and kfree_rcu() to reclaim

86b7a239ec tracing/probes: Fix use-after-free on field name/type of events with multiple probes
The fields of a probe-based dynamic event (kprobe, uprobe, eprobe and
fprobe events) are created in traceprobe_define_arg_fields() by handing
the probe_arg name/type strings to trace_define_field(), which only
stores the pointers without copying. Those strings are owned by the
trace_probe and are freed when that probe is removed.

An event can have several probes attached. The field list is defined
only once, by the first probe that registers the event, but it is kept
alive by any surviving sibling probe. Deleting just that first probe by
symbol -

  # primary A: fields are defined from A's args
  echo 'p:kprobes/ev vfs_read  a1=$arg1' >  kprobe_events
  # append B: shares A's event call
  echo 'p:kprobes/ev vfs_write a1=$arg1' >> kprobe_events
  # delete only A (matched by symbol), B survives
  echo '-:kprobes/ev vfs_read'           >> kprobe_events

frees A's args (trace_probe_cleanup() -> traceprobe_free_probe_arg()),
but trace_probe_unlink() keeps the trace_probe_event because the probe
list is not empty. The event call stays registered via B while its
fields now reference freed memory. Any field lookup then reads it, e.g.

  echo 'a1 == 1' > events/kprobes/ev/filter

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in strcmp+0xa7/0xb0
  Call Trace:
   strcmp
   trace_find_event_field

field->name references parg->name (kstrdup'd, freed with the probe) and,
for array arguments, field->type references parg->fmt (kmalloc'd, freed
with the probe) - the scalar type otherwise points at the static
fmttype rodata, which is safe.

Have traceprobe_define_arg_fields() duplicate the name and type strings
and anchor the copies on the trace_probe_event, which embeds the event
call and outlives every individual probe; trace_probe_event_free()
releases them.

The reproducer above triggers reliably; the field lookup and the delete
both run under event_mutex, so this is a dangling reference after
removal rather than a race.

The issue was found by the autokbug dynamic kernel fuzzer at Tencent
Yunding Lab.

47e93045a2 tracing/probes: Fix BTF kflag check for anonymous struct member access
btf_find_struct_member() traverses into nested anonymous structures and
unions to find a struct member. However, get_bitoffset_of_field() in
trace_probe.c checked btf_type_kflag(type) using the outer parent type
instead of the actual anonymous structure/union that directly contains
the found member.

If the parent structure and anonymous structure have mismatched kflags
(e.g., the parent has kflag=0 while the anonymous structure has kflag=1
because it contains bitfields), the bitfield size encoded in the upper
8 bits of member->offset is erroneously treated as part of the byte/bit
offset, corrupting the resolved offset and failing to set last_bitsize.
Similarly, btf_find_struct_member() pushed anonymous member offsets
onto anon_stack without masking BTF_MEMBER_BIT_OFFSET() when kflag is set.

To fix this problem, update btf_find_struct_member() to return actual
containing structure/union type via member_type, use appropriate
__btf_member_bit_offset() to get bit offset, and use member_type for
btf_type_kflag() in get_bitoffset_of_field().

f2951ebd15 tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening options file
The options files do not take the trace_array reference for the options
they represent. This could cause a use-after-free kernel crash if one of
these files is opened by one task and another task removes the instance
that the option is for. Because it doesn't take a reference upon opening,
it will not stop the removal which will free the options descriptor that
is being used.

As the options are somewhat dynamic in their creation at boot up, each
file represents a flag in the trace_array. The trace_array has an array of
indexes to represent each of these flags that is stored in the
trace_flags_index array. The address of the index array element is used to
pass to the inode->i_private pointer. Then that element is read which
holds the index (which represents the flag) and then the index is used to
calculate the trace_array descriptor from its trace_flags_index array.

One issue is that the index element can not be referenced until the
trace_array's reference is taken. To handle this, create a new helper
function called: trace_array_options_get() that will iterate all the
existing trace_arrays in the ftrace_trace_arrays list (under the
trace_types_lock), and compare the passed in address of the index element
with the entire array of the trace_array's trace_flags_index array.
If it matches, then up the corresponding trace_array's reference and
return.

e3e4f66cc4 bpf: backtracking shouldn't clear outer frame R1-R5 for callbacks
When processing calls to bpf_loop() verifier marks R1 (and R4) as
precise. R1 tracks loop iterations number and because of the
'callback_depth < R1' mechanics in check_helper_call() must be marked
precise. However, precision propagation for R1 was broken,
when bpf_loop() call was verified on a second iteration.

Consider the following verification trace:
- main: bpf_loop(nr_loops, callback ...)
- callback: BPF_EXIT
- main: bpf_loop(nr_loops, callback ...)
- ...

While the first visit of the call to bpf_loop() propagated R1
precision as expected, the second call to mark_chain_precision() in
the check_helper_call() set R1, but it was immediately reset when
backtrack_insn() processed preceding BPF_EXIT in the loop deleted in
this patch.

Because of that, the second visit of the call to bpf_loop() injected
checkpoint with R1 not marked as precise. Which could trick the
verifier into accepting unsafe programs. See the next patch for an
example of such program.

Commit is structured in a way to minimize conflicts when
'bpf' would be eventually merged with 'bpf-next'.

4617721c50 ftrace: Synchronize the initialization of ftrace_ops
There's some internal state that ftrace_ops needs to have set, but since
it can be declared outside of the ftrace.c code, it calls
ftrace_ops_init() on the ops in every global function. The issue is that
if two tasks call it on the same ops at the same time it is possible to
have the initialization of one corrupt the initialization of the other
call.

Create a ops_mutex to use to synchronize every initialization of the
ftrace_ops. The mutex is taken within checking the ftrace_ops flag that
states it was initializied but the flag is checked again after the mutex
has been taken. Checking first outside the mutex allows it to shortcut
having to take the mutex. But then the check needs to be done again after
the mute is taken in case of races.

387b1baefb bpf: backtrack_insn(): Handle ld_{abs,ind} subprog exit edge
Nicholas Carlini reported a bug in precision backtracking mechanism
for BPF_LD | BPF_{IND,ABS} instructions. These instructions are
modelled as two branches:
- fallthrough;
- implicit exit from current subprogram.

The implicit exit case was not handled by the backtrack_insn()
function. When backtracking such a path backtrack_insn() did not
call bt_subprog_enter(), which meant that backtracking continued
manipulating precision marks in a caller frame, while looking at
instructions in a callee frame.

This lead to segmentation faults during verification (see the
selftest), or unsound state pruning.

560f4deda3 printk/nbcon: Change nbcon_irq_work to IRQ_WORK_LAZY
Change the nbcon_irq_work to be IRQ_WORK_LAZY, thus not raising
an IRQ upon irq_work queuing. The irq_work is then handled on the
next kernel tick. This additional delay is acceptable because
nbcon_irq_work is only responsible for non-emergency deferred
printing, which is delayed anyway. This has the benefit of not
needing to raise an IRQ for each printk() call.

On a side note, the Tegra20 and Tegra30 platforms can hang if an
irq_work IRQ is raised while entering cpuidle states. This problem
was reproducible by calling printk() while entering cpuidle. So
this change also provides a workaround for these platforms (as long
as they are not running tickless).

   ...

When a lock class is zapped (e.g. during module unload or key
unregistration), zap_class() clears the class's bit in
lock_classes_in_use and removes it from the class hash table.
However, existing lockdep_map instances embedded in data structures
may still retain a pointer to the zapped class in their class_cache[]
array.

When __lock_acquire() subsequently runs on such a lock, it finds
lock->class_cache[subclass] != NULL, skipping register_lock_class()
and assigning hlock->class_idx to the index of the zapped class. When
check_wait_context() or hlock_class() inspects the held_lock, it finds
!test_bit(class_idx, lock_classes_in_use) and warns. Furthermore, if
the zapped slot is subsequently re-allocated to an unrelated lock key,
the stale class_cache entry would erroneously match the unrelated
class (ABA issue).

Add lock_class_cache_is_valid() to validate that the cached class is
within lock_classes bounds, still allocated in lock_classes_in_use
(using uninstrumented arch_test_bit() in __always_inline context so it
is safe in noinstr contexts like match_held_lock()), and that
class->key matches the expected subkey (taking lockdep_set_subclass()
overrides into account). Also use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() when
accessing class_cache[].  If the entry is invalid or stale, fall back
to register_lock_class() / look_up_lock_class().

58a8108bc7 perf: Fix use-after-free when perf mmap() revival races with the last munmap()
perf_mmap_close() drops rb->mmap_count *without* holding
event->mmap_mutex (the refcount_dec_and_test() right before the
refcount_dec_and_mutex_lock() of event->mmap_count). A concurrent
perf_mmap_rb() can slot its entire "revival" path into that window
(perf_mmap holds event->mmap_mutex for its whole duration, including
rb_alloc):

  munmap side (perf_mmap_close)          mmap side (perf_mmap_rb)
  -----------------------------------    --------------------------------
  rb->mmap_count 1 -> 0   (no lock)      (holds event->mmap_mutex)
                                         inc_not_zero(rb->mmap_count) fails
                                         ring_buffer_attach(event, NULL)
                                         rb_alloc() + attach new rb
                                         refcount_set(&event->mmap_count, 1)
  lock; event->mmap_count 1 -> 0
  ring_buffer_attach(event, NULL)
  ring_buffer_put() -> frees the *new* rb

The revival's refcount_set(&event->mmap_count, 1) is an invisible
1 -> 1 write: the close frees the just-revived buffer although the
other process still has it mapped -- a page-level use-after-free
allowing local privilege escalation to root by any unprivileged user
(default kernel.perf_event_paranoid=2).

Swap the order of the two counter updates: event->mmap_count is
dropped first via refcount_dec_and_mutex_lock(), so its 1 -> 0
transition and the ring_buffer_attach() stay serialized with
perf_mmap(). rb->mmap_count == 0 then implies every event using the
buffer is detached already, so the result of the rb->mmap_count drop
can gate the remaining teardown directly and detach_rest is no longer
needed.

An earlier fix for this race from Kyle Zeng and David Lee takes
event->mmap_mutex around both counter updates [0]; here the not-last
close stays lockless.

8a7f5b5e86 perf/core: Skip empty AUX records with only format flags
perf_aux_output_end() emits a PERF_RECORD_AUX when the recorded size is
nonzero or when any flag other than PERF_AUX_FLAG_OVERWRITE is set.

PMU format flags describe how an AUX payload is encoded. TRBE driver
sets PERF_AUX_FLAG_CORESIGHT_FORMAT_RAW for raw trace buffers, causing
an AUX record to be emitted even when no trace data.

This is noticeable when tracing a task with strace. Ptrace stops
repeatedly end empty AUX transactions, producing many zero-sized
PERF_RECORD_AUX records. For example:

  perf record -e cs_etm//u -m,128M -- strace ls

  perf script -D 2>&1 |
     awk '/PERF_RECORD_AUX offset/ {
        for (i = 1; i <= NF; i++)
                if ($i == "size:" && $(i + 1) == "0")
                        count++
     }
     END { print count }'
  165

This recording contains 165 zero-sized AUX records which provide no
useful information to userspace.

Ignore PERF_AUX_FLAG_PMU_FORMAT_TYPE_MASK, together with
PERF_AUX_FLAG_OVERWRITE, when deciding whether an empty AUX record is
useful. Zero-sized records carrying TRUNCATED, PARTIAL or COLLISION
are still emitted.

f0d243a96f sched/fair: Avoid creating misfits during cache-aware balancing
Cache-aware load balancing biases tasks toward their preferred LLC. On
asymmetric CPU capacity systems (e.g. big.LITTLE) the destination LLC may
contain CPUs that are too small to run the task. Pulling the task there
turns it into a misfit, trading a cache-locality gain for a capacity loss
that's more detrimental to performance.

Guard both cache-aware migration entry points against this:

 - can_migrate_llc_task(): forbid the LLC migration when the task fits its
   source CPU but would not fit the destination CPU.
 - alb_break_llc(): veto the active balance under the same condition so the
   runnable task is not pushed onto a CPU that cannot accommodate it.

Both checks are gated with checks for hybrid processors, so symmetric
systems are unaffected. Tasks that already do not fit their source CPU
are left to the existing LLC policy, since the move cannot make their
fitness worse (this also preserves misfit up-migration to bigger CPUs).

Additionally, if there are misfit tasks found in the load balancing
classification phase, prioritize misfit task migrations
over LLC load aggregation on asymmetric systems. A better fitting
CPU will boost performance more than better cache locality.

b038383526 sched/fair: Use cfs_rq->h_curr in distribute_cfs_runtime()
distribute_cfs_runtime() refreshes the rq clock and accounts elapsed
runtime with update_curr() before redistributing bandwidth, but gates
this on cfs_rq->curr. Since commit 85570f10a4 ("sched/eevdf: Move to
a single runqueue") cfs_rq->curr is only maintained on the root
cfs_rq, so for the cgroup cfs_rqs it walks, the check never fires and
the refresh is dead code.

Use cfs_rq->h_curr, the per-level current entity, restoring the
intended behaviour: only refresh when something is actually running at
the throttled level, i.e. within the deferred throttle window.
Without this, runtime consumed by a still-running task of the
throttled hierarchy is not docked before redistribution;
unthrottle_cfs_rq() catches up unconditionally since
commit 28ad542768 ("sched/fair: Call update_curr() before
unthrottling the hierarchy"), so this is not a correctness hole today,
but the refresh the check was written for is gone.

f8610c57f4 sched/fair: Use cfs_rq->h_curr in throttle_cfs_rq()
After commit 85570f10a4 ("sched/eevdf: Move to a single runqueue"),
cfs_rq->curr is only maintained on the root cfs_rq (set/cleared from
set_next_task_fair()/put_prev_task_fair()), while cfs_rq->h_curr is
the per-level current entity, set by set_next_entity() at every level
of the hierarchy. For an intermediate cfs_rq (a cgroup), cfs_rq->curr
is always NULL, but cfs_rq->h_curr is the group entity at that level.

throttle_cfs_rq() reads cfs_rq->curr to decide whether there is a
running entity at the throttled level, in which case it should request
a full sched_cfs_bandwidth_slice() of runtime and arm the deferred
throttle task_work via task_throttle_setup_work(). For intermediate
cfs_rqs the check is always false, so bandwidth-controlled cgroups
always get just 1ns of runtime and never arm the deferred throttle
work; the running task then escapes throttling until the next pick
arms the work instead, even though there is an on-rq entity at this
level.

Switch the read to cfs_rq->h_curr so intermediate bandwidth-controlled
cgroups behave consistently with the root cfs_rq, matching the
existing usage of cfs_rq->h_curr in update_curr() and
check_enqueue_throttle().

c6dcd97c8b sched/core: Skip rq->avg_idle update without a valid idle_stamp
Commit 4b603f1551 ("sched: Update rq->avg_idle when a task is moved
to an idle CPU") moved rq->avg_idle accounting out of the wakeup path and
into put_prev_task_idle(), so that the idle interval is consumed whenever
the idle task is switched out.

The wakeup-side accounting that it replaced only updated rq->avg_idle
when rq->idle_stamp was non-zero. The new helper lost that validity
check and unconditionally computes:

	rq_clock(rq) - rq->idle_stamp

If rq->idle_stamp is zero, this uses rq_clock(rq) as the sample. That is
not a valid idle duration and can immediately drive rq->avg_idle to its
clamp.

This can happen when sched_balance_newidle() returns before setting
rq->idle_stamp, for example when this_rq->ttwu_pending is set. In that
case the rq can switch to the idle task with idle_stamp still zero and
leave idle again when the pending wakeup is processed.

Other paths can also switch to the idle task without setting
rq->idle_stamp via newidle_balance(), for example find_proxy_task() or
force-idling.

Restore the idle_stamp validity check in update_rq_avg_idle() and skip
the rq->avg_idle update when there is no measured idle interval.

dae5c02920 sched/rt,dl: Skip migrate-disabled tasks when picking a push candidate
A migrate_disable()'d RT task cannot be moved to another CPU, but the
scheduler still keeps such a task on that CPU's pushable list
(rq->rt.pushable_tasks) and still marks the runqueue RT-overloaded
(rq->rt.overloaded = 1). So the RT balancer keeps treating this CPU as
having a task to move away, and keeps trying to move the task, but the
push can never succeed. When the head is pinned, push_rt_task() does not
give up either. It falls back to pushing rq->curr instead, using the
per-CPU stopper, as added by commit a7c81556ec ("sched: Fix
migrate_disable() vs rt/dl balancing").

The CPU spends tens of milliseconds in this retry loop. The core is
isolated for real-time work, but during the loop nearly half of its time
is consumed by pushes that cannot succeed.

An ftrace capture of the affected CPU, with sched_switch enabled and
commit 94894c9c47 ("sched/rt: Skip currently executing CPU in
rto_next_cpu()") applied, shows where the CPU time went. Two SCHED_FIFO
tasks at equal priority shared the CPU, taskA migrate_disable()'d and
queued, taskB as rq->curr. In one 89 ms window, taskB got only 52 ms of
CPU. The other 37 ms went to the stopper thread.

The scheduler kept trying to push taskA, the pinned head of the pushable
list, fell back to pushing taskB instead, and woke the stopper 5204
times. Every one of those pushes failed and no task was moved. taskA
stayed runnable and queued the whole time, and never ran.

Pushing taskB fails on a re-check. find_lock_lowest_rq() drops the rq
lock to take the target rq lock, then checks again with
"task != pick_next_pushable_task(rq)".

The task being pushed is taskB, but the pick returns taskA, the head of
the pushable list. taskB is rq->curr, and set_next_task_rt() removes the
running task from that list, so taskB can never be the head. The check
expects a candidate taken from the pushable list, but the fallback
pushes rq->curr, which is never on that list. So the check fails every
time.

   '----------'
         repeats every ~17 us, 5204 times, for 89 ms

   The loop cannot stop itself. Every round leaves the runqueue
   exactly as it was, so the next push-IPI does the same thing. In
   the capture it ended only when taskB went to sleep on its own.
   taskA was then picked locally and left the pushable list.

   CPU time per task in the window, from sched_switch:

     taskB         51.95 ms   real work
     migration/N   37.18 ms   nothing moved
     taskA          0.00 ms   queued the whole time, never picked
     idle           0.01 ms

   Counts over the same window:

      7667  push-IPIs handled on this CPU
     17481  pick_next_pushable_task() returned taskA, still pinned
      5204  find_lock_lowest_rq() gave up on the re-check
         1  push that actually completed
         0  migrations of taskA

   The CPU times and the window length come from the standard
   sched_switch tracepoint. The counts needed tracepoints added inside
   the RT balancer for this investigation.

The self-IPI path is closed by the rto_next_cpu() fix above, and that
part works. But the runqueue is still marked overloaded, because the
pinned task is still advertised as pushable. Other CPUs now send the
push-IPIs during their own RT balancing, and the same loop runs again.
Closing the self-IPI path did not stop a pinned task from triggering
push balancing.

A pinned task should never have been returned as a push candidate in the
first place. A migrate_disable()'d task cannot be migrated, so it
belongs in the same skip that was added for on_cpu tasks by
commit e0ca8991b2 ("sched: Make class_schedulers avoid pushing
current, and get rid of proxy_tag_curr()"). Add is_migration_disabled()
to the skip condition in pick_next_pushable_task() and
pick_next_pushable_dl_task().

With the skip in place, if the pinned task is the only extra runnable
task the helpers return NULL, push_rt_task() and push_dl_task() give up
early, and no stopper is woken. The pinned task then runs locally once
curr yields. If a task that really can be migrated is queued behind the
pinned head, it is now picked and pushed for real.

This makes the fallback that pushes rq->curr unreachable when the
pushable head is migrate-disabled. Nothing is lost, because that path
was always stopped by the re-check described above. In the capture it
ran 5204 times and moved nothing.

1719d035a6 sched/fair: Use update_curr_eevdf() for the remaining root cfs_rq callers
pick_task_fair() and yield_task_fair() call update_curr(&rq->cfs) to bring
curr up to date before they look at the eevdf state.  With cgroups that
does not happen: update_curr() reads ->h_curr, which on the root cfs_rq is
the top level group entity, and returns at the !entity_is_task() check
before touching vruntime.  Both then read ->curr, so the guard and the
update disagree about which entity they mean.

Counting how often ->h_curr and ->curr differ at pick_task_fair(), on one
CPU for 10s with three busy tasks and one 200us-periodic task:

  all tasks in the root cgroup        43321 calls,     0 no-ops
  busy tasks in G0, periodic in G1    45211 calls, 45193 no-ops

Whether that matters depends on what precedes the pick.  Since
commit 68e3748781 ("sched/fair: Fix flat hierarchy") the tick and
enqueue/dequeue all update curr correctly, so on the normal reschedule
path only the microseconds between those and the pick are missing, and I
could not measure a latency difference there.  Three paths have nothing
before them on that rq though:

  - pick_task() on the sibling rqs of a core under core scheduling
    (kernel/sched/core.c), which updates that rq's clock first for
    exactly this reason
  - fair_server_pick_task()
  - yield_task_fair(), where the stale value feeds the entity_eligible()
    test that guards forfeiting the remaining vruntime

There curr can be a full tick behind, as it was before that commit.

No new behaviour for the entity being updated: without cgroups ->h_curr
is already the task, so these two call sites already run the full
update_curr() including update_deadline(), dl_server_update() and the
resched_curr_lazy() at the end.  This makes the cgroup case do the same.

29871903f3 sched_ext: Don't deliver duplicate ops.cgroup_set_idle() for same value
ops.cgroup_set_idle() is documented to be invoked when a cgroup
transitions between idle and non-idle states, and scx_group_set_weight()
already skips value-preserving writes. scx_group_set_idle() delivers
every write unconditionally, so rewriting an already-correct cpu.idle
value feeds the BPF scheduler a transition callback each time, which
toggle- or accounting-based schedulers miscount. Mirror the weight
guard and only deliver on an actual change.

Verified with a probe scheduler printing each callback: rewriting
cpu.idle=1 twice on an already-idle cgroup delivered two callbacks
before and none after.

9100191e5a ftrace: Take trace_array reference before accessing its ftrace_ops
The trace instance files set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace was
updated to work with specific trace instances (trace_arrays). The issue is
that when these files are opened, there is a small race window where it
will use the ftrace_ops from the inode->private pointer to get a reference
to the trace_array and then take its reference. The problem is that the
ftrace_ops itself could be freed. If the rmdir on the instance happens at
the same time the set_ftrace_filter file is opened, the rmdir could have
also freed the ftrace_ops and referencing it will cause a use-after-free
bug and crash the kernel.

Instead, pass in the trace_array as the file private data (NULL for the
top level instance), and then pass both the trace_array and the ftrace_ops
to the ftrace_regex_open() function. If the trace_array is NULL, then it
just uses the ftrace_ops without the need to take its reference (like
normal). If the ftrace_ops is NULL, that is only the case for the top
level instance and the global_ops can be used.

This allows the trace_array to have its reference incremented before
touching the ftrace_ops that could also be freed when the instance is.

f4a771cc68 tracing: Have show_event_filters/triggers files take trace array ref
The newly added files show_event_filters and show_event_triggers that show
all filters or triggers that are set within the trace array do not take a
reference for the trace array it is showing. Without taking a reference,
the trace_array may be freed via "rmdir" while a task is reading one of
theses files. Those files iterate all the events within an instance
(trace_array) and nothing prevents that instance from being freed while
its data is being read. This causes a use-after-free crash.

Have the open of both those files take the trace_array reference via the
trace_array_get() that prevents the trace_array from being freed while the
files are opened.
