Adding new link to allow to attach program to multiple function
BTF IDs. The link is represented by struct bpf_tracing_multi_link.
To configure the link, new fields are added to bpf_attr::link_create
to pass array of BTF IDs;
struct {
__aligned_u64 ids;
__u32 cnt;
} tracing_multi;
Each BTF ID represents function (BTF_KIND_FUNC) that the link will
attach bpf program to.
We use previously added bpf_trampoline_multi_attach/detach functions
to attach/detach the link.
The linkinfo/fdinfo callbacks will be implemented in following changes.
Note this is supported only for archs (x86_64) with ftrace direct and
have single ops support.
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS &&
CONFIG_HAVE_SINGLE_FTRACE_DIRECT_OPS
Note using sort_r (instead of plain sort) in check_dup_ids, because we
will use the swap callback in following changes.

Adding bpf_trampoline_multi_attach/detach functions that allows to
attach/detach tracing program to multiple functions/trampolines.
The attachment is defined with bpf_program and array of BTF ids of
functions to attach the bpf program to.
Adding bpf_tracing_multi_link object that holds all the attached
trampolines and is initialized in attach and used in detach.
The attachment allocates or uses currently existing trampoline
for each function to attach and links it with the bpf program.
The attach works as follows:
- we get all the needed trampolines
- lock them and add the bpf program to each (__bpf_trampoline_link_prog)
- the trampoline_multi_ops passed in __bpf_trampoline_link_prog gathers
ftrace_hash (ip -> trampoline) objects
- we call update_ftrace_direct_add/mod to update needed locations
- we unlock all the trampolines
The detach works as follows:
- we lock all the needed trampolines
- remove the program from each (__bpf_trampoline_unlink_prog)
- the trampoline_multi_ops passed in __bpf_trampoline_unlink_prog gathers
ftrace_hash (ip -> trampoline) objects
- we call update_ftrace_direct_del/mod to update needed locations
- we unlock and put all the trampolines
We store the old image/flags in the trampoline before the update
and use it in case we need to rollback the attachment.
We keep the ftrace_hash objects allocated during attach in the link
so they can be used for detach as well.
Adding trampoline_(un)lock_all functions to (un)lock all trampolines
to gate the tracing_multi attachment.
Note this is supported only for archs (x86_64) with ftrace direct and
have single ops support.
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS &&
CONFIG_HAVE_SINGLE_FTRACE_DIRECT_OPS
It also needs CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL enabled.

Adding new program attach types multi tracing attachment:
BPF_TRACE_FENTRY_MULTI
BPF_TRACE_FEXIT_MULTI
and their base support in verifier code.
Programs with such attach type will use specific link attachment
interface coming in following changes.
This was suggested by Andrii some (long) time ago and turned out
to be easier than having special program flag for that.
Bpf programs with such types have 'bpf_multi_func' function set as
their attach_btf_id and keep module reference when it's specified
by attach_prog_fd.
They are also accepted as sleepable programs during verification,
and the real validation for specific BTF_IDs/functions will happen
during the multi link attachment in following changes.

Adding struct bpf_tramp_node to decouple the link out of the trampoline
attachment info.
At the moment the object for attaching bpf program to the trampoline is
'struct bpf_tramp_link':
struct bpf_tramp_link {
struct bpf_link link;
struct hlist_node tramp_hlist;
u64 cookie;
}
The link holds the bpf_prog pointer and forces one link - one program
binding logic. In following changes we want to attach program to multiple
trampolines but we want to keep just one bpf_link object.
Splitting struct bpf_tramp_link into:
struct bpf_tramp_link {
struct bpf_link link;
struct bpf_tramp_node node;
};
struct bpf_tramp_node {
struct bpf_link *link;
struct hlist_node tramp_hlist;
u64 cookie;
};
The 'struct bpf_tramp_link' defines standard single trampoline link
and 'struct bpf_tramp_node' is the attachment trampoline object with
pointer to the bpf_link object.
This will allow us to define link for multiple trampolines, like:
struct bpf_tracing_multi_link {
struct bpf_link link;
...
int nodes_cnt;
struct bpf_tracing_multi_node nodes[] __counted_by(nodes_cnt);
};

Adding mutex lock pool that replaces bpf trampolines mutex.
For tracing_multi link coming in following changes we need to lock all
the involved trampolines during the attachment. This could mean thousands
of mutex locks, which is not convenient.
As suggested by Andrii we can replace bpf trampolines mutex with mutex
pool, where each trampoline is hash-ed to one of the locks from the pool.
It's better to lock all the pool mutexes (32 at the moment) than
thousands of them.
There is 48 (MAX_LOCK_DEPTH) lock limit allowed to be simultaneously
held by task, so we need to keep 32 mutexes (5 bits) in the pool, so
when we lock them all in following changes the lockdep won't scream.
Removing the mutex_is_locked in bpf_trampoline_put, because we removed
the mutex from bpf_trampoline.

libbpf provides a .s named section variant for every sleepable

Constant pointer arithmetic on a PTR_TO_FLOW_KEYS register lands the
constant in reg->var_off (e.g. flow_keys(imm=4096)), but the
PTR_TO_FLOW_KEYS path in check_mem_access() passes only insn->off to
check_flow_keys_access() and never folds reg->var_off.value. The
verifier therefore accepts an access that, at runtime, dereferences past
struct bpf_flow_keys -- a verifier/runtime divergence that yields an
out-of-bounds read and write of kernel stack memory.
Commit 022ac07508 ("bpf: use reg->var_off instead of reg->off for
pointers") removed the generic "off += reg->off" that check_mem_access()
applied before the per-type dispatch and replaced it with per-path
folding of reg->var_off.value (for example the ctx path now folds the
register offset via check_ctx_access()). The PTR_TO_FLOW_KEYS path was
not given the equivalent fold, so a constant offset that used to be
folded and rejected is now silently accepted:
before 022ac0750883: the offset stays in reg->off and is folded
generically, so the access is checked with off=4096 and rejected.
after 022ac0750883: the offset lands in reg->var_off, the flow_keys
path checks off=0 and accepts; at runtime the access dereferences
base + 0x1000.
For a BPF_PROG_TYPE_FLOW_DISSECTOR program the following is accepted:
r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 144) ; R2=flow_keys (PTR_TO_FLOW_KEYS)
r2 += 0x1000 ; R2=flow_keys(imm=4096), accepted
r0 = *(u64 *)(r2 + 0) ; accepted, var_off.value=0x1000 ignored
while the equivalent insn->off form
r0 = *(u64 *)(r2 + 0x1000)
has the same effective offset but is correctly rejected with
"invalid access to flow keys off=4096 size=8", which isolates the defect
to the missing var_off fold. Once attached as a flow dissector, the
accepted program reads kernel stack past struct bpf_flow_keys (a
kernel-stack / KASLR information leak) and can likewise write past it,
corrupting kernel memory.
Fix it by folding reg->var_off.value into the offset before the bounds
check and rejecting non-constant offsets, mirroring the other pointer
types (e.g. check_ctx_access()).

Add support for extended attributes on bpffs inodes so that user space
and BPF LSM programs can attach metadata, for example, a content hash
or a security label - to a pinned object or directory. BPF LSM or user
space tooling can then uniformly look at this (e.g. security.bpf.*) in
similar way to other fs'es. The store is in-memory and non-persistent:
it lives only for the lifetime of the mount, like everything else in
bpffs. The modelling is similar to tmpfs.
bpffs serves the trusted.* and security.* namespaces; user.* is left
unsupported. As bpffs is FS_USERNS_MOUNT, security.* is reachable by
the unprivileged mounter in a user namespace, and thus we are using
the simple_xattr_set_limited infra there (trusted.* needs global
CAP_SYS_ADMIN).
bpf_fill_super() is open-coded instead of using simple_fill_super(),
because the root inode must now be allocated through bpf_fs_alloc_inode()
i.e. carry the bpf_fs_inode wrapper and come from the right cache -
which requires s_op (and s_xattr) to be installed before the first
inode is created. While at it, also harden s_iflags with SB_I_NOEXEC
and SB_I_NODEV.
bpf_fs_listxattr() is only reachable through the filesystem via
i_op->listxattr, so the BPF token inode is left untouched. Name-based
fsetxattr()/fgetxattr() on a token fd still work since the get/set
handlers are installed at the superblock.
For security.* namespace, we use simple_xattr_set_limited() but
there was no simple_xattr_add_limited() API yet which was needed
in bpf_fs_initxattrs() to avoid underflows in the accounting. The
symlink target is freed in bpf_free_inode() rather than in
bpf_destroy_inode() so that it is released only after an RCU grace
period, as an RCU path walk following the symlink may still
dereference inode->i_link in security_inode_follow_link(). Lastly,
the bpf_symlink() allocated the symlink target is switched to
GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT, so the string is charged to the caller's memcg.

BPF_PROG_LOAD verifies the loader signature but does not record the
outcome on the BPF program. [BPF] LSMs and audit can read attr->signature
and attr->keyring_id to infer "was this signed, and if so, against which
keyring".
Add prog->aux->sig (verdict + keyring_{type,serial}), populated by
bpf_prog_load before the LSM hook. keyring_type classifies the keyring
the load referenced (builtin, secondary, platform or user), while
keyring_serial records the serial of the keyring the signature was
actually validated against. System keyrings carry a pseudo key pointer
with no user-visible serial and are reported as 0, as are unsigned loads.
Failed verifications reject the load before the hook runs, so it observes
only either UNSIGNED or VERIFIED.

The bpf_set_retval() helper is used by cgroup BPF programs to set the
return value of the target hook. The argument type for this helper is
ARG_ANYTHING. This allows setting a positive value, which no cgroup
hook expects and can cause issues, such as:
- BPF_LSM_CGROUP: a positive value from bpf_lsm_socket_create bypasses
the err < 0 check in __sock_create(), leaving the socket object
unallocated. The positive return value is then propagated to the
syscall entry __sys_socket(), which also bypasses the IS_ERR() guard
and ultimately causes a NULL pointer dereference.
- BPF_CGROUP_DEVICE: a positive value can be returned through cgroup
device bpf prog -> devcgroup_check_permission() -> bdev_permission()
-> bdev_file_open_by_dev(), where ERR_PTR(positive) produces a pointer
that IS_ERR() does not catch, leading to a wild pointer dereference.
- BPF_CGROUP_SOCK: a positive value can be returned through cgroup sock
bpf prog -> __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sk() -> inet_create() ->
__sock_create(), where inet_create() frees the newly allocated sk
via sk_common_release() and sets sock->sk = NULL on the non-zero
return, but __sock_create() only checks err < 0 for cleanup, so a
positive retval bypasses cleanup and returns a socket with NULL sk
to userspace, triggering a NULL pointer dereference on subsequent
socket operations.
- BPF_CGROUP_SYSCTL: a positive value can be returned through the cgroup
bpf prog -> __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl() -> proc_sys_call_handler(),
where a non-zero return bypasses the normal sysctl proc_handler and is
returned directly to userspace as return value of read() or write()
syscall.
So add validation for the argument of the bpf_set_retval() helper.
For BPF_LSM_CGROUP, enforce the LSM hook specific range returned by
bpf_lsm_get_retval_range().
For all other cgroup program types, restrict the argument to
[-MAX_ERRNO, 0], which matches the kernel convention of 0 for success
and negative errno for error.
BPF_CGROUP_GETSOCKOPT is an exception, since valid getsockopt
implementations may return positive values, as allowed by commit
c4dcfdd406 ("bpf: Move getsockopt retval to struct bpf_cg_run_ctx").
Also refine the return value range of bpf_get_retval() so that
values returned by bpf_get_retval() can be passed directly to
bpf_set_retval() without extra manual bounds checking.

Commit 4e63acdff8 ("bpf: Introduce bpf_sysctl_{get,set}_new_value
helpers") changed the success return value to 0, but failed to update the
corresponding check in __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl(). Since
bpf_prog_run_array_cg() now returns 0 on success, the legacy ret == 1
condition is never satisfied. As a result, the modified value is ignored,
and bpf_sysctl_set_new_value() fails to replace the write buffer.
Fix this by checking for a return value of 0 instead, so cgroup/sysctl
programs can correctly replace the pending sysctl buffer.
This bug was discovered during a manual code review. Tested via a
cgroup/sysctl BPF reproducer overriding writes to a target sysctl.
Pre-fix, bpf_sysctl_set_new_value("foo") was silently ignored: the write
returned 8192 and the value remained "600". Post-fix, the BPF replacement
buffer properly propagates: the write returns 3 and the value updates to
"foo".

proc_sys_call_handler() allocates its temporary sysctl buffer with
kvzalloc() and passes it to __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl(). Since
kvzalloc() may fall back to vmalloc() for large allocations, freeing
that buffer with kfree() is wrong and can corrupt memory.
Use kvfree() to safely handle both kmalloc and kvzalloc()/vmalloc
allocations.
The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are
developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing
v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly
available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still
present in v7.1-rc5.
Reproduced the bug based on v7.1-rc4 in a QEMU x86_64 guest booted with
KASAN and CONFIG_FAILSLAB enabled. To exercise the replacement path, the
test tree also included the accompanying fix for the stale ret == 1
check in __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl(). The reproducer confines
failslab injections to the proc_sys_call_handler() range, uses
stacktrace-depth=32, and injects fail-nth=1 while writing 8191 bytes to
/proc/sys/kernel/domainname from a task in the target cgroup. Under
that setup, fail-nth=1 triggered the fault:

When writing to sysctls, proc_sys_call_handler() guarantees that the
buffer passed to proc handlers is NUL-terminated. If
bpf_sysctl_set_new_value() replaces the pending sysctl value, it can
hand a replacement buffer directly to proc handlers. However, the
helper currently copies only buf_len bytes into that buffer without
appending a NUL terminator, leaving downstream parsers vulnerable to
out-of-bounds access.
Fix this by appending a '\0' after the replaced value to restore the
expected sysctl semantics. Since the helper already rejects buf_len
greater than PAGE_SIZE - 1, there is always room for the extra byte.
Reproduced in a QEMU x86_64 guest booted with KASAN while exercising
the sysctl replacement path with a cgroup/sysctl BPF program. The
reproducer targets `/proc/sys/net/core/flow_limit_cpu_bitmap`, fills
the original user write buffer with non-zero bytes, and overrides the
sysctl value so the replacement buffer lacks a terminating NUL. Under
that setup, the pre-fix kernel reported:

bpf_rb_root_free() detaches the root by copying the current rb_root_cached
and then replacing the live root with RB_ROOT_CACHED. It then walks the
copied root and drops each object contained in the tree.
This leaves the rb node state intact while dropping the object. If the
object is refcounted and survives the drop, its bpf_rb_node_kern still
contains an owner pointer to the freed root and stale rb tree linkage. If
a later bpf_rb_root allocation reuses the same address, bpf_rbtree_remove()
can incorrectly pass the owner check and call rb_erase_cached() on a node
whose rb pointers belong to the old tree.
Mirror the list draining behavior by marking nodes as busy while the root
is being detached, then clear the rb node and release the owner before
dropping the containing object. This makes surviving nodes unowned and
safe to reject from remove or accept for a later add.

check_ids() warned when it ran out of idmap slots, assuming this was
impossible because the slots are bounded by the number of registers and
stack slots. That assumption no longer holds: referenced dynptrs acquire
an intermediate reference that lives in refs[] but is not backed by any
register or stack slot [0], so a program can accumulate more reference
ids than the idmap can hold and exhaust it.
Exhaustion is fine for verification correctness. check_ids() already
returns false, which makes the states compare as not equivalent and
prevents unsound pruning. The only effect of the WARN_ON_ONCE() is log
noise, or a panic under panic_on_warn. Drop the warning and keep

apply_range_set_cb() maps the pages for a new arena allocation and returned
-EBUSY when the target PTE was already populated. Kernel-fault recovery
leaves the per-arena scratch page in unallocated arena PTEs, so a later
bpf_arena_alloc_pages() over such a page hits that -EBUSY, and every
subsequent allocation of it fails the same way. Allocation must install the
real page over scratch instead.
Overwriting the scratch PTE in place is a valid->valid change, which arm64
forbids without break-before-make. Route through an invalid entry instead:
ptep_try_set() fills only a none slot, so the PTE goes scratch->none->page.
On finding scratch, clear it and flush_tlb_before_set() before retrying. The
new flush_tlb_before_set() is a no-op except on arches like arm64 that need
the break-before-make TLB invalidate. The loop also copes with a concurrent
fault re-scratching the slot.
Arches without ptep_try_set() never install the scratch page, so keep the
must-be-empty check and set_pte_at() for them.

Devmap broadcast redirects clone the packet for all but the last

For native XDP, that clone path copies only the linear xdp_frame data,
while fragmented frames keep skb_shared_info in tailroom outside the
linear area. Cloning such a frame leaves XDP_FLAGS_HAS_FRAGS set but
without valid frag metadata, and the later free path can interpret
uninitialized tail data as skb_shared_info, leading to an out-of-bounds
access during frame return.
Reject fragmented native XDP frames in dev_map_enqueue_clone().
Add the same restriction to the generic XDP clone path in

nonlinear skbs, and rejecting them here keeps clone-based broadcast

Specialize the lookup/update/delete paths for keys whose size matches
sizeof(long) (4 bytes on 32-bit, 8 bytes on 64-bit). A static-const
rhashtable_params lets the compiler inline a custom XOR-fold hashfn and
a single-word equality cmpfn, eliminating the indirect jhash dispatch.
The same hashfn and cmpfn are installed into rhashtable's stored params
at rhashtable_init time, so the rehash worker, slow-path inserts, and
rhashtable_next_key() all agree with the inlined fast paths.
The seq_file BPF iterator uses rhashtable_walk_* and is unaffected.

Add support for timers, workqueues, task work, spin locks and kptrs.
Without this, users needing deferred callbacks, BPF_F_LOCK, or
refcounted kernel pointers in a dynamically-sized map have no option -
fixed-size htab is the only map supporting these field types.
Resizable hashtab should offer the same capability.
kptr semantics under in-place updates are identical to array map.
Properly clean up BTF record fields on element delete and map

Implement get_next_key, batch lookup/lookup-and-delete, for_each_map_elem
callback, and the seq_file BPF iterator for BPF_MAP_TYPE_RHASH.
get_next_key() and batch use rhashtable_next_key() — stateless,
matches the syscall UAPI shape (no kernel-side iterator state).
get_next_key falls back to the first key when prev_key was
concurrently deleted (matches htab semantics). Batch reports
cursor loss as -EAGAIN so userspace can distinguish it from
end-of-iteration (-ENOENT) and restart from NULL.
The seq_file BPF iterator uses rhashtable_walk_* instead. It runs
only from read() syscall context, so the walker's spin_lock is
safe, and seq_file's per-fd state lets the walker handle rehash
correctly (retry on -EAGAIN) for stronger coverage than the
stateless API can provide.

The KCOV selftest enables coverage by setting current->kcov_mode to
KCOV_MODE_TRACE_PC without installing a coverage area. If an interrupt
records coverage in that window, the access should fault and expose the
bug.
When building for QEMU raspi0 (Raspberry Pi Zero, ARMv6, CONFIG_CPU_V6K=y,
CONFIG_CURRENT_POINTER_IN_TPIDRURO=y) with GCC 13.3.0, the store that
enables the mode is removed. The generated kcov_init() code only stores
zero after the wait loop:
mrc 15, 0, r3, cr13, cr0, {3}
str r4, [r3, #2028]
where r4 is zero. There is no store of KCOV_MODE_TRACE_PC before the
loop, so the selftest reports success without exercising coverage.
Use WRITE_ONCE() for the temporary mode stores. With the same compiler
and config, kcov_init() contains the intended mode store:
mov r3, #2
mrc 15, 0, r2, cr13, cr0, {3}
str r3, [r2, #2028]
Now that the KCOV selftest is actually executed, it may expose KCOV
instrumentation issues depending on the kernel config. That is expected
for a selftest that was intended to catch coverage from interrupt paths.

Refactor the newly introduced btf_scan_decl_tags() to improve
readability and maintainability. The current implementation uses a
manual if-else chain and a magic number offset to strip the "arg:"
prefix from declaration tags.
Replace the if-else logic with a table-driven approach using a static
const array. This separates the tag data from the scanning logic, making
the helper more extensible for future tags. Additionally, replace the
magic number '4' with a sizeof-based calculation on the prefix string to
ensure the offset remains synchronized with the search key.
Finally, optimize the loop by moving the is_global check to the top of
the block. This allows the verifier to fail-fast on static subprograms
without performing unnecessary BTF string and type lookups.

module_extend_max_pages() calls kvrealloc() internally and returns
-ENOMEM on allocation failure. The return value is never checked.
If the initial allocation fails, info->pages remains NULL and
info->max_pages remains 0. Subsequent calls to module_get_next_page()
will attempt to dynamically grow the array by calling
module_extend_max_pages(info, 0) since info->used_pages is 0. This
results in kvrealloc(NULL, 0) returning ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which is treated
as a success, leading to a dereference of ZERO_SIZE_PTR and a kernel
oops.
Fix: add the missing error check after module_extend_max_pages() and
return immediately on failure. This matches the pattern used by every
other kvrealloc() caller in the module loading path.

tmigr_handle_remote_cpu() skips timer_expire_remote() when cpu ==
smp_processor_id(), assuming the local softirq path already handled this
CPU's timers.
This assumption is wrong because jiffies can advance after the handling of
the CPU's global timers in run_timer_base(BASE_GLOBAL) and before
tmigr_handle_remote() evaluates the expiry times.
As a consequence a timer which expires after the CPU local timer wheel
advanced and becomes expired in the remote handling is ignored and the
callback is never invoked and removed from the timer wheel.
What's worse is that fetch_next_timer_interrupt_remote() keeps reporting it
as expired, and the event is re-queued with expires == now on each
iteration. The goto-again loop spins indefinitely.
Fix this by calling timer_expire_remote() unconditionally. That's minimal
overhead for the common case as __run_timer_base() returns immediately if
there is nothing to expire in the local wheel.

PTP device system crosstime stamps support only CLOCK_REALTIME, which is
meaningless for AUX clocks. The PTP core hands in the clock ID already, so
prepare the core code to honor it.
- Add a new sys_systime field to struct system_device_crosststamp which
aliases the sys_realtime field. Once all users are converted
sys_realtime can be removed.
- Prepare get_device_system_crosststamp() and the related code for it by
switching to sys_systime and providing the initial changes to utilize
different time keepers.

Currently, the number of LUO sessions is limited by a fixed number of
pre-allocated pages for serialization (16 pages, allowing for ~819
sessions).
This limitation is problematic if LUO is used to support things such as
systemd file descriptor store, and would be used not just as VM memory
but to save other states on the machine.
Remove this limit by transitioning to a linked-block approach for
session metadata serialization. Instead of a single contiguous block,
session metadata is now stored in a chain of 16-page blocks. Each block
starts with a header containing the physical address of the next block
and the number of session entries in the current block.

Previously, LUO used contiguous memory blocks for serializing sessions
and files, which imposed limits on the total number of items that could
be preserved across a live update.
This commit adds the infrastructure for a more flexible, block-based
approach where serialized data is stored in a chain of linked blocks.

Transition the LUO to ABI v2, which centralizes state management into a
single struct luo_ser header.
Previously, LUO state was spread across multiple FDT properties and
subnodes. ABI v2 simplifies this by placing all core state, including
the liveupdate number and physical addresses for sessions and FLB
headers into a centralized struct luo_ser.
Note that this change introduces a semantic difference: the sessions
and FLB serialization formats are no longer completely independent of
the core LUO. Their metadata (such as physical addresses for sessions
and FLB headers) is now coupled to and managed via the centralized
struct luo_ser.

When the FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK mechanism is used for unlocking (PI-)futexes,
then the unlock sequence in user space looks like this:
1) robust_list_set_op_pending(mutex);
2) robust_list_remove(mutex);
lval = gettid();
3) if (atomic_try_cmpxchg(&mutex->lock, lval, 0))
4) robust_list_clear_op_pending();
else
5) sys_futex(OP | FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK, ....);
That still leaves a minimal race window between #3 and #4 where the mutex
could be acquired by some other task, which observes that it is the last
user and:
1) unmaps the mutex memory
2) maps a different file, which ends up covering the same address
When then the original task exits before reaching #5 then the kernel robust
list handling observes the pending op entry and tries to fix up user space.
In case that the newly mapped data contains the TID of the exiting thread
at the address of the mutex/futex the kernel will set the owner died bit in
that memory and therefore corrupt unrelated data.
On X86 this boils down to this simplified assembly sequence:
mov %esi,%eax // Load TID into EAX
xor %ecx,%ecx // Set ECX to 0
#3 lock cmpxchg %ecx,(%rdi) // Try the TID -> 0 transition
.Lstart:
jnz .Lend
#4 movq %rcx,(%rdx) // Clear list_op_pending
.Lend:
If the cmpxchg() succeeds and the task is interrupted before it can clear
list_op_pending in the robust list head (#4) and the task crashes in a
signal handler or gets killed then it ends up in do_exit() and subsequently
in the robust list handling, which then might run into the unmap/map issue
described above.
This is only relevant when user space was interrupted and a signal is
pending. The fix-up has to be done before signal delivery is attempted
because:
1) The signal might be fatal so get_signal() ends up in do_exit()
2) The signal handler might crash or the task is killed before returning
from the handler. At that point the instruction pointer in pt_regs is
not longer the instruction pointer of the initially interrupted unlock
sequence.
The right place to handle this is in __exit_to_user_mode_loop() before
invoking arch_do_signal_or_restart() as this covers obviously both
scenarios.
As this is only relevant when the task was interrupted in user space, this
is tied to RSEQ and the generic entry code as RSEQ keeps track of user
space interrupts unconditionally even if the task does not have a RSEQ
region installed. That makes the decision very lightweight:
if (current->rseq.user_irq && within(regs, csr->unlock_ip_range))
futex_fixup_robust_unlock(regs, csr);
futex_fixup_robust_unlock() then invokes a architecture specific function
to return the pending op pointer or NULL. The function evaluates the
register content to decide whether the pending ops pointer in the robust
list head needs to be cleared.
Assuming the above unlock sequence, then on x86 this decision is the
trivial evaluation of the zero flag:
return regs->eflags & X86_EFLAGS_ZF ? regs->dx : NULL;
Other architectures might need to do more complex evaluations due to LLSC,
but the approach is valid in general. The size of the pointer is determined
from the matching range struct, which covers both 32-bit and 64-bit builds
including COMPAT.
The unlock sequence is going to be placed in the VDSO so that the kernel
can keep everything synchronized, especially the register usage. The
resulting code sequence for user space is:
if (__vdso_futex_robust_list$SZ_try_unlock(lock, tid, &pending_op) != tid)
err = sys_futex($OP | FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK,....);
Both the VDSO unlock and the kernel side unlock ensure that the pending_op
pointer is always cleared when the lock becomes unlocked.

There will be a VDSO function to unlock robust futexes in user space. The
unlock sequence is racy vs. clearing the list_pending_op pointer in the
tasks robust list head. To plug this race the kernel needs to know the
instruction window. As the VDSO is per MM the addresses are stored in
mm_struct::futex.
Architectures which implement support for this have to update these
addresses when the VDSO is (re)mapped and indicate the pending op pointer
size which is matching the IP.
Arguably this could be resolved by chasing mm->context->vdso->image, but
that's architecture specific and requires to touch quite some cache
lines. Having it in mm::futex reduces the cache line impact and avoids
having yet another set of architecture specific functionality.
To support multi size robust list applications (gaming) this provides two
ranges when COMPAT is enabled.

Unlocking robust non-PI futexes happens in user space with the following
sequence:
1) robust_list_set_op_pending(mutex);
2) robust_list_remove(mutex);
lval = 0;
3) lval = atomic_xchg(lock, lval);
4) if (lval & WAITERS)
5) sys_futex(WAKE,....);
6) robust_list_clear_op_pending();
That opens a window between #3 and #6 where the mutex could be acquired by
some other task which observes that it is the last user and:
A) unmaps the mutex memory
B) maps a different file, which ends up covering the same address
When the original task exits before reaching #6 then the kernel robust list
handling observes the pending op entry and tries to fix up user space.
In case that the newly mapped data contains the TID of the exiting thread
at the address of the mutex/futex the kernel will set the owner died bit in
that memory and therefore corrupting unrelated data.
PI futexes have a similar problem both for the non-contented user space
unlock and the in kernel unlock:
1) robust_list_set_op_pending(mutex);
2) robust_list_remove(mutex);
lval = gettid();
3) if (!atomic_try_cmpxchg(lock, lval, 0))
4) sys_futex(UNLOCK_PI,....);
5) robust_list_clear_op_pending();
Address the first part of the problem where the futexes have waiters and
need to enter the kernel anyway. Add a new FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK flag, which
is valid for the sys_futex() FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI, FUTEX_WAKE, FUTEX_WAKE_BITSET
operations.
This deliberately omits FUTEX_WAKE_OP from this treatment as it's unclear
whether this is needed and there is no usage of it in glibc either to
investigate.
For the futex2 syscall family this needs to be implemented with a new
syscall.
The sys_futex() case [ab]uses the @uaddr2 argument to hand the pointer to
robust_list_head::list_pending_op into the kernel. This argument is only
evaluated when the FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK bit is set and is therefore backward
compatible.
This is an explicit argument to avoid the lookup of the robust list pointer
and retrieving the pending op pointer from there. User space has the
pointer already available so it can just put it into the @uaddr2
argument. Aside of that this allows the usage of multiple robust lists in
the future without any changes to the internal functions as they just operate
on the provided pointer.
This requires a second flag FUTEX_ROBUST_LIST32 which indicates that the
robust list pointer points to an u32 and not to an u64. This is required
for two reasons:
1) sys_futex() has no compat variant
2) The gaming emulators use both both 64-bit and compat 32-bit robust
lists in the same 64-bit application
As a consequence 32-bit applications have to set this flag unconditionally
so they can run on a 64-bit kernel in compat mode unmodified. 32-bit
kernels return an error code when the flag is not set. 64-bit kernels will
happily clear the full 64 bits if user space fails to set it.
In case of FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI this clears the robust list pending op when the
unlock succeeded. In case of errors, the user space value is still locked
by the caller and therefore the above cannot happen.
In case of FUTEX_WAKE* this does the unlock of the futex in the kernel and
clears the robust list pending op when the unlock was successful. If not,
the user space value is still locked and user space has to deal with the
returned error. That means that the unlocking of non-PI robust futexes has
to use the same try_cmpxchg() unlock scheme as PI futexes.
If the clearing of the pending list op fails (fault) then the kernel clears
the registered robust list pointer if it matches to prevent that exit()
will try to handle invalid data. That's a valid paranoid decision because
the robust list head sits usually in the TLS and if the TLS is not longer
accessible then the chance for fixing up the resulting mess is very close
to zero.
The problem of non-contended unlocks still exists and will be addressed
separately.

Patch series "mm: misc cleanups from __GFP_UNMAPPED series".
In v2 of the __GFP_UNMAPPED series [0], we realised that some of the
patches could potentially be merged as independent cleanups.
These are all independent of one another, if you think some are useful
cleanups and others are pointless churn, it should be fine to just pick
whatever subset you prefer.
No functional change intended.
This patch (of 4):
There are a couple of places that iterate over the freelists with
awareness of the data structures' layout.
It seems ideally, code outside of mm should not be aware of the page
allocator's freelists at all. But, this patch just doesn't hide them
completely, it's just a meek incremental step in that direction: provide a
macro to iterate over it without needing to be aware of the actual struct

The dyntick-idle cputime accounting always assumes that interrupt time
accounting is enabled and consequently stops elapsing the idle time during
dyntick-idle interrupts.
This doesn't mix up well with disabled interrupt time accounting because
then idle interrupts become a cputime blind-spot. Also this feature is
disabled on most configurations and the overhead of pausing dyntick-idle
accounting while in idle interrupts could then be avoided.
Fix the situation with conditionally pausing dyntick-idle accounting during
idle interrupts only iff either native vtime (which does interrupt time
accounting) or generic interrupt time accounting are enabled.
Also make sure that the accumulated interrupt time is not accidentally

The non-vtime dynticks-idle cputime accounting is a big mess that
accumulates within two concurrent statistics, each having their own
shortcomings:
* The accounting for online CPUs which is based on the delta between
tick_nohz_start_idle() and tick_nohz_stop_idle().
Pros:
- Works when the tick is off
- Has nsecs granularity
Cons:
- Account idle steal time but doesn't substract it from idle
cputime.
- Assumes CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING by not accounting IRQs but
the IRQ time is simply ignored when
CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING=n
- The windows between 1) idle task scheduling and the first call
to tick_nohz_start_idle() and 2) idle task between the last
tick_nohz_stop_idle() and the rest of the idle time are
blindspots wrt. cputime accounting (though mostly insignificant
amount)
- Relies on private fields outside of kernel stats, with specific
accessors.
* The accounting for offline CPUs which is based on ticks and the
jiffies delta during which the tick was stopped.
Pros:
- Handles steal time correctly
- Handle CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING=y and
CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING=n correctly.
- Handles the whole idle task
- Accounts directly to kernel stats, without midlayer accumulator.
Cons:
- Doesn't elapse when the tick is off, which doesn't make it
suitable for online CPUs.
- Has TICK_NSEC granularity (jiffies)
- Needs to track the dyntick-idle ticks that were accounted and
substract them from the total jiffies time spent while the tick
was stopped. This is an ugly workaround.
Having two different accounting for a single context is not the only
problem: since those accountings are of different natures, it is
possible to observe the global idle time going backward after a CPU goes
offline.
Clean up the situation with introducing a hybrid approach that stays
coherent and works for both online and offline CPUs:
* Tick based or native vtime accounting operate before the idle loop
is entered and resume once the idle loop prepares to exit.
* When the idle loop starts, switch to dynticks-idle accounting as is
done currently, except that the statistics accumulate directly to the
relevant kernel stat fields.
* Private dyntick cputime accounting fields are removed.
* Works on both online and offline case.
Further improvement will include:
* Only switch to dynticks-idle cputime accounting when the tick actually
goes in dynticks mode.
* Handle CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING=n correctly such that the
dynticks-idle accounting still elapses while on IRQs.
* Correctly substract idle steal cputime from idle time

Offline handling happens from within the inner idle loop, after the
beginning of dyntick cputime accounting, nohz idle load balancing and
TIF_NEED_RESCHED polling.
This is not necessary and even buggy because:
* There is no dyntick handling to do. And calling tick_nohz_idle_enter()
messes up with the struct tick_sched reset that was performed on
tick_sched_timer_dying().
* There is no nohz idle balancing to do.
* Polling on TIF_RESCHED is irrelevant at this stage, there are no more
tasks allowed to run.
* No need to check if need_resched() before offline handling since
stop_machine is done and all per-cpu kthread should be done with
their job.
Therefore move the offline handling at the beginning of the idle loop.
This will also ease the idle cputime unification later by not elapsing
idle time while offline through the call to:

When the nohz idle time is fetched, the current clock timestamp is taken
outside the seqcount, which can result in a race as reported by Sashiko:
get_cpu_sleep_time_us() tick_nohz_start_idle()
----------------------- ---------------------
now = ktime_get()
write_seqcount_begin(idle_sleeptime_seq);
idle_entrytime = ktime_get()
tick_sched_flag_set(ts, TS_FLAG_IDLE_ACTIVE);
write_seqcount_end(&ts->idle_sleeptime_seq);
read_seqcount_begin(idle_sleeptime_seq)
delta = now - idle_entrytime);
//!! But now < idle_entrytime
idle = *sleeptime + delta;
read_seqcount_retry(&ts->idle_sleeptime_seq, seq)
Here the read side fetches the timestamp before the write side and its
update. As a result the time delta computed on the read side is negative
(ktime_t is signed) and breaks the cputime monotonicity guarantee.
This could possibly be fixed with reading the current clock timestamp
inside the seqcount but the reader overhead might then increase. Also
simply checking that the current timestamp is above the idle entry time
is enough to prevent any issue of the like.

cgroup_apply_control_disable() defers kill_css_finish() while a css is
still populated, relying on css_update_populated() to fire the deferred
kill once the populated count reaches zero.
This deadlocks when a controller is rebound out of a hierarchy. Mounting
an implicit_on_dfl controller such as perf_event as a v1 hierarchy steals
it off the default hierarchy, and rebind_subsystems() kills its
per-cgroup csses while they are still populated. The migration run in the
same step keeps the old css for a controller no longer in the hierarchy's
mask, so no task is migrated off the dying csses. Their populated count
never reaches zero, the deferred kill_css_finish() never fires, and the
next cgroup_lock_and_drain_offline() hangs forever under cgroup_mutex.
That migration is already a no-op pass over the rebound subtree. Add
cgroup_rebind_ss_mask so find_existing_css_set() resolves the leaving
controllers to the root css. Their tasks are migrated there, the
per-cgroup csses depopulate, and cgroup_apply_control_disable() kills
them synchronously. The deferral stays correct for the rmdir and
controller-disable paths it was meant for.

When CONFIG_UBSAN_ALIGNMENT is enabled, the stack usage of nocb_gp_wait()

Apparently, the problem is passing rcu_data from a 'void *' pointer,
which gcc assumes may be misaligned. When the function is not inlined
into rcu_nocb_gp_kthread(), that is no longer visible to gcc.
Add a 'noinline_for_stack' annotation that leads to skipping a lot of
the alignment sanitizer checks and keeps the stack usage 60% lower here.

Exclusive maps (aka excl_prog_hash) are meant to be reachable only
from the single program whose hash matches. This is enforced by
check_map_prog_compatibility() when the map is referenced from a
program such as signed BPF loaders.
A bpf_map_elem iterator, however, binds its target map at attach
time in bpf_iter_attach_map() instead of referencing it from the
program, so the exclusivity check is never reached. On top of that,
the iterator exposes the map value as a writable buffer.

Add syntax to the parsing of eprobes to be able to typecast a trace event
field that is a pointer to a structure.
Currently, a dereference must be a number, where the user has to figure
out manually the offset of a member of a structure that they want to
dereference.
But for event probes that records a field that happens to be a pointer to
a structure, it cannot dereference these values with BTF naming, but
must use numerical offsets.
For example, to find out what device a sk_buff is pointing to in the
net_dev_xmit trace event, one must first use gdb to find the offsets of the
members of the structures:
(gdb) p &((struct sk_buff *)0)->dev
$1 = (struct net_device **) 0x10
(gdb) p &((struct net_device *)0)->name
$2 = (char (*)[16]) 0x118
And then use the raw numbers to dereference:
# echo 'e:xmit net.net_dev_xmit +0x118(+0x10($skbaddr)):string' >> dynamic_events
If BTF is in the kernel, then instead, the skbaddr can be typecast to
sk_buff and use the normal dereference logic.
# echo 'e:xmit net.net_dev_xmit (sk_buff)skbaddr->dev->name:string' >> dynamic_events
# echo 1 > events/eprobes/xmit/enable
# cat trace

assign_cfs_rq_runtime() during update_curr() sets the resched indicator
and relies on check_cfs_rq_runtime() during pick_next_task() /
put_prev_entity() to throttle the hierarchy once current task is
preempted / blocks.
Per-task throttle, on the other hand, uses throttle_cfs_rq() to simply
propagate the throttle signals, and then relies on task work to
individually throttle the runnable tasks on their way out to the
userspace.
Remove check_cfs_rq_runtime() and unify throttling into
account_cfs_rq_runtime() which only sets the cfs_rq->throttled,
cfs_rq->throttle_count indicators via throttle_cfs_rq() and optionally
adds the task work to the current task (donor) it is on the throttled
hierarchy.
throttle_cfs_rq() requests for sched_cfs_bandwidth_slice() worth of
bandwidth for the current hierarchy that enable it to continue running
uninterrupted when selected. For the rest, it requests a bare minimum of
"1" to ensure some bandwidth is available and pass the
"runtime_remaining > 0" checks once selected.
For SCHED_PROXY_EXEC, a mutex holder cannot exit to userspace without
dropping it first and the mutex_unlock() ensures proxy is stopped before
the mutex handoff which preserves the current semantics for running a
throttled task until it exits to the userspace even if it acts as a
donor.

unthrottled via tg_unthrottle_up() and entity of group B is placed onto

Move the tasks from throttled_limbo_list onto a local list before

Subsequent commits will allow update_curr() to throttle the hierarchy
when the runtime accounting exceeds allocated quota. Call update_curr()
before the unthrottle event, and in tg_unthrottle_up() to catch up on
any remaining runtime and stabilize the "runtime_remaining" and
"throttle_count" for that cfs_rq.
Doing an update_curr() early ensures the cfs_rq is not throttled right
back up again when the unthrottle is in progress.
Since all callers of unthrottle_cfs_rq(), except two, already update the

When distribute_cfs_runtime() encounters a local cfs_rq, it adds it to a
local list and unthrottles it at the end, when it is done unthrottling
other cfs_rq(s) on cfs_b->throttled_cfs_rq until the bandwidth runs out.
Instead of using a local list, reuse the local CPU's
rq->throttled_csd_list and the __cfsb_csd_unthrottle() path for
unthrottle.
If this is the first cfs_rq to be queued on the "throttled_csd_list", it
prevents the need for a remote CPUs to interrupt this local CPU if they
themselves are performing async unthrottle.
If this is not the first cfs_rq on the list, there is an async unthrottle
operation pending on this local CPU and the unthrottle can be batched
together.

- Reordering of list_del_rcu() against throttled_clock indicator update

To remove the cfs_rq pointer array in task_group, allocate the combined
cfs_rq and sched_entity using the per-cpu allocator.
This patch implements the following:
- Changes task_group->cfs_rq from 'struct cfs_rq **' to
'struct cfs_rq __percpu *'.
- Updates memory allocation in alloc_fair_sched_group() and
free_fair_sched_group() to use alloc_percpu() and free_percpu()
respectively.
- Uses the inline accessor tg_cfs_rq(tg, cpu) with per_cpu_ptr() to retrieve
the pointer to cfs_rq for the given task group and CPU.
- Replaces direct accesses tg->cfs_rq[cpu] with calls to the new tg_cfs_rq(tg,
cpu) helper.
- Handles the root_task_group: since struct rq is already a per-cpu variable
(runqueues), its embedded cfs_rq (rq->cfs) is also per-cpu. Therefore, we
assign root_task_group.cfs_rq = &runqueues.cfs.
- Cleanup the code in initializing the root task group.
This change places each CPU's cfs_rq and sched_entity in its local per-cpu
memory area to remove the per-task_group pointer arrays.

Now that struct sched_entity is co-located with struct cfs_rq for non-root task
groups, the task_group->se pointer array is redundant. The associated
sched_entity can be loaded directly from the cfs_rq.
This patch performs the access conversion with the helpers:
- is_root_task_group(tg): checks if a task group is the root task group. It
compares the task group's address with the global root_task_group variable.
- tg_se(tg, cpu): retrieves the cfs_rq and returns the address of the
co-located se. This function checks if tg is the root task group to ensure
behaving the same of previous tg->se[cpu]. Replaces all accesses that use
the tg->se[cpu] pointer array with calls to the new tg_se(tg, cpu) accessor.
- cfs_rq_se(cfs_rq): simplifies access paths like cfs_rq->tg->se[...] to use
the co-located sched_entity. This function also checks if tg is the root
task group to ensure same behavior.
Since tg_se is not in very hot code paths, and the branch is a register
comparison with an immediate value (`&root_task_group`), the performance impact
is expected to be negligible.

Commit ed4fb6d7ef ("hrtimer: Use and report correct timerslack values
for realtime tasks") sets timer_slack_ns to 0 for RT tasks in
__setscheduler_params(). However, when an RT task with SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK
creates child threads, the children inherit timer_slack_ns=0 from the
parent. sched_fork() resets the child's policy to SCHED_NORMAL but does
not restore timer_slack_ns, leaving the child permanently running with
zero slack.
Fix this by restoring timer_slack_ns from default_timer_slack_ns in
sched_fork() when resetting from RT/DL to NORMAL policy, matching the
existing behavior in __setscheduler_params().
Note: this fix alone requires a correct default_timer_slack_ns to be
effective. See the following patch for that fix.

Add a new is_blocked flag to the task struct. This flag is set
by try_to_block_task() and cleared by ttwu_do_wakeup() and
tracks if the task is blocked.
Traditionally this would mirror !p->on_rq, however due things
like DELAY_DEQUEUE and PROXY_EXEC, this can diverge, so its
useful to manage separately.
Additionally with this, we might be able to get rid of the
p->se.sched_delayed (ab)use in the core code (eventually).
Taken whole cloth from Peter's email:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260501132143.GC1026330@noisy.programming.kicks-ass.net/
With a few additional p->is_blocked = 0 in a few cases where
we return current if blocked_on gets zeroed or there is
no owner. This may hint that these current special cases
might be dropped eventually.
This change also helps resolve wait-queue stalls seen with

This patch adds logic so try_to_wake_up() will notice if we are
waking a task where blocked_on == PROXY_WAKING, and if necessary
dequeue the task so the wakeup will naturally return-migrate the
donor task back to a cpu it can run on.
This helps performance as we do the dequeue and wakeup under the
locks normally taken in the try_to_wake_up() and avoids having
to do proxy_force_return() from __schedule(), which has to
re-take similar locks and then force a pick again loop.
This was split out from the larger proxy patch, and

The DL scheduler keeps the current task in the rbtree, since
the deadline value isn't usually chagned while the task is
runnable.
This results in set_next_task() and put_prev_task() being
simpler, but unfortunately this causes complexity elsewhere.
Specifically when update_curr_dl() updates the deadline, it has
to dequeue and then enqueue the task.
From put_prev_task_dl(), we first call update_curr_dl(), and
then call enqueue_pushable_dl_task().
However, with Proxy Exec this goes awry. Since when a mutex is
released, we might wake the waiting rq->donor. This will cause
put_prev_task() to be called on the donor to take it off the
cpu for return migration.
At that point, from put_prev_task_dl() the update_curr_dl()
logic will dequeue & enqueue the task, and the enqueue function
will call enqueue_pushable_dl_task() (since the task_current()
check won't prevent it). Then back up the callstack in
put_prev_task_dl() we'll end up calling
enqueue_pushable_dl_task() again, tripping the
!RB_EMPTY_NODE(&p->pushable_dl_tasks) warning.
So to avoid this, use Peter's suggested[1] approach, and add a
dl_rq->curr pointer that is set/cleared from set_next_task()/
put_prev_task(), which effectively tracks the rq->donor. We can
then use this to avoid adding the active donor to the pushable
list from enqueue_task_dl().

As part of an improvement to handling pushable deadline tasks,
Peter suggested this cleanup[1], to use helper values for
dl_entity and dl_rq in the enqueue_task_dl() and
put_prev_task_dl() functions. There should be no functional
change from this patch.
To make sure this cleanup change doesn't obscure later logic

Historically, the prev value from __schedule() was the rq->curr.
This prev value is passed down through numerous functions, and
used in the class scheduler implementations. The fact that
prev was on_cpu until the end of __schedule(), meant it was
stable across the rq lock drops that the class->balance()
implementations often do.
However, with proxy-exec, the prev passed to functions called
by __schedule() is rq->donor, which may not be the same as
rq->curr and may not be on_cpu, this makes the prev value
potentially unstable across rq lock drops.
A recently found issue with proxy-exec, is when we begin doing
return migration from try_to_wake_up(), its possible we may be
waking up the rq->donor. When we do this, we proxy_resched_idle()
to put_prev_set_next() setting the rq->donor to rq->idle, allowing
the rq->donor to be return migrated and allowed to run.
This however runs into trouble, as on another cpu we might be in
the middle of calling __schedule(). Conceptually the rq lock is
held for the majority of the time, but in calling prev_balance()
its possible the class->balance() handler call may briefly drop the rq lock.
This opens a window for try_to_wake_up() to wake and return migrate the
rq->donor before the class logic reacquires the rq lock.
Unfortunately prev_balance() pass in a prev argument, to which we pass
rq->donor. However this prev value can now become stale and incorrect across a
rq lock drop.
So, to correct this, rework the prev_balance() call so that it does not take a
"prev" argument.

Vineeth found came up with a test driver that could trip up
workqueue stalls. After fixing one issue this test found,
Vineeth reported the test was still failing.
Greatly simplified, a task that tries to take a mutex already
owned by another task that is sleeping, can hit a edge case in
the mutex_lock_common() case.
If the task fails to get the lock, calls into schedule, but gets
a spurious wakeup, it will find that it is first waiter, and
go into the mutex_optimistic_spin() logic. Though before calling
mutex_optimistic_spin(), we clear task blocked_on state, since
mutex_optimistic_spin() may call schedule() if need_resched() is
set.
After mutex_optimistic_spin() fails, we set blocked_on again,
restart the main mutex loop, try to take the lock and call into
schedule_preempt_disabled().
From there, with proxy-execution, we'll see the task is
blocked_on, follow the chain, see the owner is sleeping and
dequeue the waiting task from the runqueue.
This all sounds fine and reasonable. But what I had missed is
that in mutex_optimistic_spin(), not only do we call schedule()
but we set TASK_RUNNABLE right before doing so.
This is ok for that invocation of schedule(). But when we come
back we re-set the blocked_on we had just cleared, but we do not
re-set the task state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE/UNINTERRUPTIBLE.
This means we have a task that is blocked_on & TASK_RUNNABLE,
so when the proxy execution code dequeues the task, we are
in trouble since future wakeups will be shortcut by the
ttwu_state_match() check.
Thus, to avoid this, after mutex_optimistic_spin(), set the task
state back when we set blocked_on.
Many many thanks again to Vineeth for his very useful testing
driver that uncovered this long hidden bug, that I hadn't
tripped in all my testing! Very impressed with the problems he's
uncovered!

ktime_get_snapshot() provides a snapshot of the underlying clocksource
counter value and the corresponding CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, CLOCK_REALTIME and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME timestamps.
There is no usage of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME at the same time and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME support was just added for the ARM64 KVM tracing mechanism,
which needs CLOCK_BOOTTIME and the underlying clocksource counter value.
ktime_get_snapshot() is also not suitable for usage with CLOCK_AUX, but
that's a prerequisite to support PTP hardware timestamping for CLOCK_AUX
steering.
As a first step, rename ktime_get_snapshot() to ktime_get_snapshot_id(),
which now takes a clockid argument to select the clock which needs to be
captured. The result is stored in system_time_snapshot::systime, which will
replace the system_time_snapshot::real/boot members once all usage sites
have been converted.
ktime_get_snapshot() is a simple wrapper which hands in CLOCK_REALTIME as
clockid argument for the conversion period. That means CLOCK_REALTIME is
now captured twice, but that redunancy is only temporary.
As all usage sites of struct system_time_snapshot has to be updated anyway,
rename the 'raw' member to 'monoraw' for clarity.

commit 4f375ade6a ("bpf: Avoid RCU context warning when unpinning
htab with internal structs") moved inode cleanup from ->free_inode()
into ->destroy_inode() to avoid sleeping in RCU context when calling
bpf_any_put(). However this removed the RCU delay on freeing the
inode itself and the cached symlink body (i_link), both of which
can be accessed by RCU pathwalk (pick_link, may_lookup etc.).
This causes a use-after-free when a concurrent unlinkat() drops the
last inode reference and destroy_inode() frees the inode immediately,
while another task is still walking the path in RCU mode and reads
inode->i_opflags (offset +2) inside current_time() -> is_mgtime().
KASAN reports:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in is_mgtime include/linux/fs.h:2313
Read of size 2 at addr ffff8880407e4282 (offset +2 = i_opflags)
The rules (per Al Viro):
->destroy_inode() called immediately, can sleep, use for blocking
cleanup e.g. bpf_any_put()
->free_inode() called after RCU grace period, use for freeing
inode and anything RCU-accessible e.g. i_link
Fix: split the two concerns properly:
- keep bpf_any_put() in bpf_destroy_inode() since it is blocking
and needs to run promptly
- introduce bpf_free_inode() to handle kfree(i_link) and
free_inode_nonrcu() with proper RCU delay, preventing the UAF

at any point. Expand the verifier to permit returning an arena pointer

The main subprog is still not allowed to return an arena pointer because
arena pointers are internal to the BPF program, and the return values

An exclusive map (created with excl_prog_hash) is bound to a single

only runs for maps a program references directly, i.e. its used_maps.
A map reached at runtime through a map-of-maps is never in used_maps,
and bpf_map_meta_equal() does not consider excl_prog_sha, so an
exclusive map can be inserted into a non-exclusive outer map and
then looked up and mutated by an unrelated program, bypassing the
exclusivity guarantee.
For the signed loader this defeats the metadata map exclusivity check
added in the signed loader: the cached map->sha[] is validated against
the signed hash while another program on a hostile host rewrites the

Introduce release_reg() to consolidate the release logic shared by both
helpers and kfuncs: dynptr release, kptr_xchg percpu-to-RCU conversion,
regular reference release, and NULL pass-through. NULL pass-through is
only allowed if the prototype indicates the argument may be null.
Determine release_regno from the function prototype/metadata before
argument checking, rather than discovering it dynamically during
argument processing. For helpers, scan the arg_type array in
check_func_proto() via check_proto_release_reg(). For kfuncs, set
release_regno to BPF_REG_1 in bpf_fetch_kfunc_arg_meta() when
KF_RELEASE is set. In the future when we start adding decl_tag to
kfunc arguments, we can just look at the function prototype instead
of a release_regno.
Extract ref_convert_alloc_rcu_protected() and
invalidate_rcu_protected_refs() to make it more clear what the code is
doing. For ref_convert_alloc_rcu_protected(), it pre-converts
MEM_ALLOC | MEM_PERCPU registers to MEM_RCU (clearing id so they
survive), then calls release_reference() to invalidate the remaining
registers and release the reference state.
Add KF_RELEASE to bpf_dynptr_file_discard() so its release_regno is set
via fetch_kfunc_meta rather than being assigned manually in the dynptr
argument processing. Set arg_type to ARG_PTR_TO_DYNPTR for
KF_ARG_PTR_TO_DYNPTR so that check_func_arg_reg_off() correctly allows
non-zero stack offsets for dynptr release arguments same as helper.

Refactor object relationship tracking in the verifier and fix a dynptr
use-after-free bug where file/skb dynptrs are not invalidated when the
parent referenced object is freed.
Add parent_id to bpf_reg_state to precisely track child-parent
relationships. A child object's parent_id points to the parent object's
id. This replaces the PTR_TO_MEM-specific dynptr_id.
Remove ref_obj_id from bpf_reg_state by folding its role into the
existing id field. Previously, id tracked pointer identity for null
checking while ref_obj_id tracked the owning reference for lifetime
management. These are now unified: acquire helpers and kfuncs set id
to the acquired reference id, and release paths use id directly.
Add reg_is_referenced() which checks if a register is referenced by
looking up its id in the reference array. This replaces all former
ref_obj_id checks.
For release_reference(), invalidating an object now also invalidates
all descendants by traversing the object tree. This is done using
stack-based DFS to avoid recursive call chains of release_reference() ->
unmark_stack_slots_dynptr() -> release_reference(). Referenced objects
encountered during tree traversal are reported as leaked references.
Add parent_id to bpf_reference_state to enable hierarchical reference
tracking. When acquiring a reference, a parent_id can be specified to
link the new reference to an existing one (e.g., referenced dynptrs
acquire a reference with parent_id linking to the parent object's
reference).
Pointer casting:
For pointer casting helpers (bpf_sk_fullsock, bpf_tcp_sock), instead of
propagating ref_obj_id, the cast result reuses the same reference id as
the source pointer. Since the cast may return NULL for a non-NULL input,
the NULL case is explored as a separate verifier branch. This allows
releasing any of the original or cast pointers to invalidate all others.
Referenced dynptrs:
When constructing a referenced dynptr, acquire a intermediate reference
with parent_id linking to the parent referenced object. The dynptr and
all clones share the same parent_id (pointing to the intermediate ref)
but get unique ids for independent slice tracking. Releasing a
referenced dynptr releases the parent reference, which in turn
invalidates all clones and their derived slices.
Owning to non-owning reference conversion:
After converting owning to non-owning by clearing id (e.g.,
object(id=1) -> object(id=0)), the verifier releases the reference
state via release_reference_nomark().
Note that the error message "reference has not been acquired before" in
the helper and kfunc release paths is removed. This message was already
unreachable. The verifier only calls release_reference() after
confirming the reference is valid, so the condition could never trigger
in practice.

In luo_file_unpreserve_files() and luo_file_finish(), reorder
module_put() and xa_erase() to ensure the file handler module remains
pinned while its operations are being accessed.
Specifically, luo_get_id() dereferences fh->ops->get_id, so the module
reference must be held until after xa_erase() (which calls luo_get_id)
completes.
For luo_file_finish(), this requires moving the module_put() call out of
the luo_file_finish_one() helper and into the main loop of
luo_file_finish() itself.

During the reboot() syscall, user processes may still be running
concurrently and attempting to mutate sessions (e.g., creating,
retrieving, or releasing sessions). To prevent this, introduce
luo_session_serialize_rwsem to synchronize mutations with the
serialization process.
All session mutation operations (create, retrieve, release, ioctl) take
the read lock. The serialization process (luo_session_serialize) takes
the write lock and holds it indefinitely on success. This effectively
freezes the LUO session subsystem during the transition to the new
kernel. If serialization fails, the lock is released to allow recovery.

The sessions ioctls are not applicable to all session types. PRESERVE_FD
is only applicable to outgoing sessions. RETRIEVE_FD and FINISH are only
valid for incoming session. Calling a incoming ioctl on an outgoing
session is invalid and can cause file handlers to run into unexpected
errors.
For example, a user can create a (outgoing) session, preserve a memfd,
and then immediately do a retrieve without doing a kexec in between.
This would result in memfd's retrieve handler to run. The handlers
expects to be called from a post-kexec context, and will try to do a
kho_restore_vmalloc() or kho_restore_folio() to try and restore memory.
KHO catches this (thanks to KHO_PAGE_MAGIC) and returns an error, but
since this is considered an internal error and KHO throws out a bunch of
WARN()s.
Associate a type with each ioctl op and validate the type in
luo_session_ioctl() before dispatching the ioctl handler to make sure
the op is being called for the right session type.

Global subprogram argument checking derives generic pointer sizes from BTF
and passes the resolved size to check_mem_reg() as a u32. The access-size
validation path then uses a signed int, and stack pointers negate the value
before calling check_helper_mem_access().
This creates a wrap when BTF describes a pointee size larger than S32_MAX.
For example, a global subprogram argument of type:
int (*p)[0x3fffffff]
has a BTF-resolved pointee size of 0xfffffffc bytes. At a call site the
caller can pass a pointer to a 4-byte stack slot at fp-4. The current
PTR_TO_STACK path computes:
size = -(int)mem_size
so 0xfffffffc becomes -4 as a signed int and the negation validates only
a 4-byte stack range. That range is covered by the caller's stack slot,
so the call is accepted.
The callee is then verified independently with R1 as PTR_TO_MEM and
mem_size 0xfffffffc. A small instruction such as:
r0 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 4)
is accepted as being inside that BTF-described memory region. At run time,
however, the actual argument value is still fp-4, so r1 + 4 addresses fp+0,
outside the 4-byte object that the caller provided.
Reject sizes that cannot be represented by the verifier's signed
access-size API before the stack-specific negation. Add a verifier
regression test for the oversized BTF argument.

If the persistent ring buffer is detected on boot up to have a corrupted
sub-buffer, that sub-buffer is cleared to zero and its commit value has
the RB_MISSED_EVENTS bit set. That bit is to allow the "trace",
"trace_pipe" and "trace_pipe_raw" files know that events were dropped by
outputting "[LOST EVENTS]".
Only in this case does that bit get set in the writeable portion of the
ring buffer. When events are dropped in the normal ring buffer, that
information is stored in the cpu_buffer descriptor and the
RB_MISSED_EVENTS is set in the buffer page at the time the page is
consumed. It is never set in the writeable portion of the buffer.
Add comments to describe this better as it can be confusing to know when

BPF arena (kernel/bpf/arena.c) is compiled only on MMU && 64BIT, while
SCHED_CLASS_EXT depends on BPF_SYSCALL && BPF_JIT && DEBUG_INFO_BTF with no
64BIT requirement. On a 32-bit arch with a BPF JIT, SCX builds while the
arena helpers are absent, so the cid-form code's unconditional calls to
bpf_prog_arena() and bpf_arena_map_kern_vm_start() fail to link:
build_policy.o: undefined reference to `bpf_prog_arena'
build_policy.o: undefined reference to `bpf_arena_map_kern_vm_start'
Guard the three call sites with the same MMU && 64BIT condition that gates
arena.o. A cid-form scheduler needs a BPF arena, which isn't available on
such builds, so it can't run there regardless. cpu-form schedulers don't
touch the arena and are unaffected.
This is a quick workaround to get past the build errors. A fuller fix may
make the whole cid-form path conditional on the same condition, or drop
32-bit support outright.

BPF_PROG_QUERY writes back the 'query.revision' field unconditionally to
userspace. If userspace passes a smaller 'bpf_attr' structure (e.g. 40
bytes, which was the layout before the addition of 'query.revision'),
the kernel performs an out-of-bounds write.
Fix this by propagating the user-provided attribute size 'uattr_size'
down to the cgroup query handlers, and conditionally skipping writing
the revision field to userspace when the provided buffer size is
insufficient.
query.revision in bpf_mprog_query is structurally identical to the
cgroup case: a late tail field, written unconditionally.
But the backward-compat hazard is not the same.
The min-historical-size test is per command, and bpf_mprog_query only
serves attach types that were born with revision in the struct:
- tcx_prog_query -> BPF_TCX_INGRESS/EGRESS
- netkit_prog_query -> BPF_NETKIT_PRIMARY/PEER
tcx, netkit, the revision field, and bpf_mprog_query itself all landed in
the same v6.6 merge window (053c8e1f23 added the mprog query API +
revision; tcx in e420bed025, netkit in 35dfaad718). There has never
been a tcx/netkit BPF_PROG_QUERY userspace that doesn't know about
revision. So for these commands the minimum legitimate struct already
covers offset 56-64 — no old binary can be broken here.
Contrast with cgroup: BPF_PROG_QUERY on cgroup attach types shipped in
2017; revision write-back was bolted on years later (1209339844). That
path has a real population of pre-revision callers.

trace_preemptirq.o is already excluded because this tracing path can run
from early interrupt code and produce coverage unrelated to syscall
inputs. Exclude trace_irqsoff.o as well, instead of requiring users to
turn off CONFIG_KCOV_INSTRUMENT_ALL=y, which is the default whole-kernel
KCOV mode.
With the exclusion in place, the same ARMv5 Versatile PB QEMU test boots
through the KCOV selftest and reaches userspace.
Tested on ARMv5 Versatile PB QEMU with CONFIG_KCOV_SELFTEST=y,
CONFIG_KCOV_INSTRUMENT_ALL=y and CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER=y.

The field_var_str array was allocated separately via kcalloc() with its
length already known at elt_data allocation time. Convert it to a
flexible array member and fold the two allocations into a single
kzalloc_flex(), reordering hist_trigger_elt_data_alloc() so n_str is
computed and bounds-checked before the struct allocation.
hist_elt_data is only reached through tracing_map_elt::private_data
(a void *), never embedded, so adding a FAM imposes no tail-position
constraint on any enclosing struct.
Added __counted_by for extra runtime analysis.

None of the calls to trace_array_printk_buf() will do anything
if we don't initialize the buffer on instance creation (unless
some other tracer called it), so do that.
Add an osnoise_print() function to facilitate adding debug prints
(without tainting).
Use trace_array_printk() instead of trace_array_printk_buf(), as we're
only writing to the main buffer (of a non-main instance) anyway -- and
trace_array_printk_buf() skips the check to make sure we're not printing
to the global instance.

update_tg_load_avg() is called once per leaf cfs_rq from the
__update_blocked_fair() walk that runs inside the NOHZ idle-balance
softirq, and again from update_load_avg() with UPDATE_TG. Its first
operation after the trivial early-outs is unconditionally:
now = sched_clock_cpu(cpu_of(rq_of(cfs_rq)));
if (now - cfs_rq->last_update_tg_load_avg < NSEC_PER_MSEC)
return;
Jakub ran into a system where nohz_idle_balance() was taking 75%
of a CPU (which is handling network traffic and doing many irq_exit_cpu
calls), with 35% of that CPU spent in update_load_avg, and 17% of the
CPU in sched_clock_cpu(), reading the TSC.
In a quick synthetic test, it looks like this patch reduces the
CPU use of sched_balance_update_blocked_averages by about 20%.
Switch the rate-limit to read rq_clock(rq_of(cfs_rq)) instead.
This eliminates the rdtsc, and uses a fairly fresh timestamp,
because all callers of update_tg_load_avg() and clear_tg_load_avg()
hold rq->lock and have called update_rq_clock(rq) within microseconds:
caller pre-state
__update_blocked_fair encloser did update_rq_clock(rq)
update_load_avg's three UPDATE_TG sites under rq->lock after enqueue/dequeue/update_curr
attach_/detach_entity_cfs_rq preceded by update_load_avg(...)
clear_tg_load_avg via offline path rq_clock_start_loop_update(rq) upfront
so rq->clock is fresh at every call. Since cfs_rqs are per-CPU
per-task_group, cfs_rq->last_update_tg_load_avg is always compared
against the same rq's clock; no cross-rq drift.

Commit cd959a3562 ("sched_ext: Add a DL server for sched_ext tasks")
introduced an ext_server deadline server to protect sched_ext tasks from
fair/RT starvation, mirroring the existing fair_server.
Currently, both servers reserve their 50ms/1000ms bandwidth at boot,
regardless of whether a BPF scheduler is loaded. Unused bandwidth is
still reclaimed at runtime by other classes, but the static reservation
prevents the RT class from implicitly using that headroom when one of
the two classes is guaranteed to be empty.
A sysadmin can work around this by writing
/sys/kernel/debug/sched/{fair,ext}_server/cpu*/runtime, but that
requires manual action and not all systems expose debugfs.
A better approach is to make server bandwidth reservations dynamic: only
the scheduling policy that is currently active should register its
reservation, while the inactive one should not artificially hold
capacity (keeping both reservations only when the BPF scheduler is
running in partial mode):
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+------------+
| BPF scheduler state | fair server | ext server |
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+------------+
| not loaded (default boot) | reserved | none |
| loaded full mode (!SCX_OPS_SWITCH_PARTIAL) | none | reserved |
| loaded partial mode (SCX_OPS_SWITCH_PARTIAL)| reserved | reserved |
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+------------+
To achieve this, introduce an "attached/detached" state for each
deadline server, so the kernel can decide whether a server's bandwidth
should be accounted in global bandwidth tracking.
At boot, the system starts with only the fair server contributing to
bandwidth accounting. When a BPF scheduler is enabled, the ext server is
attached and may replace or complement the fair server depending on
whether full or partial mode is used. When sched_ext is disabled, the
system restores the previous deadline bandwidth values and behavior.
The transition logic ensures that switching between scheduling modes is
consistent and reversible, without losing runtime configuration or
requiring manual intervention.

Writing runtime or period via the per-CPU dl_server debugfs files

Commit ee6e44dfe6 ("sched/deadline: Stop dl_server before CPU goes

There's no meaningful semantics for re-configuring the per-CPU dl_server

-EBUSY so userspace gets a clear error.

Allow the same userspace thread to simultaneously collect normal coverage
in syscall context (KCOV_ENABLE) and remote coverage of asynchronous work
created by the thread (KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE). With this, remote KCOV
coverage becomes useful for generic fuzzing and not just fuzzing of
specific data injection interfaces.
This requires that the task_struct::kcov_* fields are separated into ones
that are used by the task that generates coverage, and ones that are used
by the task that requested remote coverage. To split this up:
- Split task_struct::kcov into kcov and kcov_remote. kcov_task_exit() now
has to clean up both separately.
- Only use task_struct::kcov_mode on the task that generates coverage.
- Only reset task_struct::kcov_handle on the task that requested remote
coverage.
After this change, fields used by the task that generates coverage are:
- kcov_mode
- kcov_size
- kcov_area
- kcov
- kcov_sequence
- kcov_softirq
Fields used by the task that requested remote coverage are:
- kcov_remote
- kcov_handle

This cleanup removes #ifdef boilerplate code from subsystems that

diffstat).
This should also make it easier to add KCOV remote coverage to more

Patch series "taskstats: fix TGID dead-thread stat retention", v3.
This series fixes a taskstats TGID aggregation bug where fields added in
the TGID query path were not preserved after thread exit, and adds a
kselftest covering the regression.
The first patch keeps the cached TGID aggregate used for dead threads in
step with the fields already accumulated for live threads, and also fixes
the final TGID exit notification emitted when group_dead is true.
The second patch adds a kselftest that verifies TGID CPU stats do not
regress after a worker thread exits and has been reaped.
This patch (of 2):
fill_stats_for_tgid() builds TGID stats from two sources: the cached
aggregate in signal->stats and a scan of the live threads in the group.
However, fill_tgid_exit() only accumulates delay accounting into
signal->stats. This means that once a thread exits, TGID queries lose the
fields that fill_stats_for_tgid() adds for live threads.
This gap was introduced incrementally by two earlier changes that extended
fill_stats_for_tgid() but did not make the corresponding update to
fill_tgid_exit():
- commit 8c733420bd ("taskstats: add e/u/stime for TGID command")
added ac_etime, ac_utime, and ac_stime to the TGID query path.
- commit b663a79c19 ("taskstats: add context-switch counters")
added nvcsw and nivcsw to the TGID query path.
As a result, those fields were accounted for live threads in TGID queries,
but were dropped from the cached TGID aggregate after thread exit. The
final TGID exit notification emitted when group_dead is true also copies
that cached aggregate, so it loses the same fields.
Factor the per-task TGID accumulation into tgid_stats_add_task() and use
it in both fill_stats_for_tgid() and fill_tgid_exit(). This keeps the
cached aggregate used for dead threads aligned with the live-thread
accumulation used by TGID queries.

HW-tag KASAN never checks kernel stacks because stack pointers carry the
match-all tag, so setting/poisoning tags is pure overhead.
- Add __GFP_SKIP_KASAN to THREADINFO_GFP so every stack allocator that
uses it skips tagging (fork path plus arch users)
- Add __GFP_SKIP_KASAN to GFP_VMAP_STACK for the fork-specific vmap
stacks.
- When reusing cached vmap stacks, skip kasan_unpoison_range() if HW tags
are enabled.
Software KASAN is unchanged; this only affects tag-based KASAN.

Pages that BPF arena code maps are allocated through
bpf_map_alloc_pages(), which does not allocate folios but pages.
In the future, pages will not have a mapcount, only folios will.
Converting the code to use folios and rely on folio_mapped() sounds like
the wrong approach.
Should BPF arena code allocate folios and use folio_mapped() here? But
likely we would not want to use folios here longterm, as we don't really
need folio information.
Hard to tell. But in the meantime, we can simply use the page refcount
instead, as a heuristic whether the page might be mapped to user space and
we would want to try zapping it, so we can get rid of page_mapped().
Page allocation will give us a page with a refcount of 1. Any user space
mapping adds a page reference. While there can be references from other
subsystems (e.g., GUP), in the common case for this test here relying on
the page count is good enough.

Because there is time gap between bpf_map_new_fd() and close_fd(), a
concurrent thread is able to close the new fd and opens a new, unrelated
file with the exact same fd number. Thereafter, this close_fd() might
inadvertently close the unrelated file.
To avoid such regression, do finalize log before security_bpf_map_create().
However, in order to achieve it, move bpf_get_file_flag(),
security_bpf_map_create(), bpf_map_alloc_id(), and bpf_map_new_fd() from
__map_create() to map_create(). And, rename __map_create() to
map_create_alloc() meanwhile.
Then, in order to reuse the map and token when all checks pass in
map_create_alloc(), pass "struct bpf_map **" and "struct bpf_token **" to
map_create_alloc().

When the persistent ring buffer detects a corrupted subbuffer, it will
zero its size and report dropped pages in the dmesg, then it continues
normally.
But if a reboot happens without clearing or restarting tracing on the
persistent ring buffer, the next boot will show no pages are dropped.
If the persistent ring buffer is still the same, then it should still
report dropped pages so the user knows that the buffer has missing events.
Add the RB_MISSED_EVENTS flag to the commit value of the subbuffer so that
the next boot will still show that pages were dropped.

Add a self-corrupting test for the persistent ring buffer.
This will inject an erroneous value to some sub-buffer pages (where
the index is even or multiples of 5) in the persistent ring buffer
when the kernel panics, and checks whether the number of detected
invalid pages and the total entry_bytes are the same as the recorded
values after reboot.
This ensures that the kernel can correctly recover a partially
corrupted persistent ring buffer after a reboot or panic.
The test only runs on the persistent ring buffer whose name is
"ptracingtest". The user has to fill it with events before a
kernel panic.
To run the test, enable CONFIG_RING_BUFFER_PERSISTENT_INJECT
and add the following kernel cmdline:
reserve_mem=20M:2M:trace trace_instance=ptracingtest^traceoff@trace
panic=1
Run the following commands after the 1st boot:
cd /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/ptracingtest
echo 1 > tracing_on
echo 1 > events/enable
sleep 3
echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
After panic message, the kernel will reboot and run the verification
on the persistent ring buffer, e.g.
Ring buffer meta [2] invalid buffer page detected
Ring buffer meta [2] is from previous boot! (318 pages discarded)
Ring buffer testing [2] invalid pages: PASSED (318/318)
Ring buffer testing [2] entry_bytes: PASSED (1300476/1300476)

Skip invalid sub-buffers when rewinding the persistent ring buffer
instead of stopping the rewinding the ring buffer. The skipped

To ensure the rewinding stops at the unused page, this also clears
buffer_data_page::time_stamp when tracing resets the buffer. This

cgroup.max.descendants and cgroup.max.depth are shown through seq_file.
Their show callbacks read cgrp->max_descendants and cgrp->max_depth with
READ_ONCE(), respectively.
The corresponding write callbacks update the same scalar fields while
holding the cgroup lock, but the seq_file show path does not serialize
against those stores. This leaves the lockless show-side loads annotated
with READ_ONCE(), while the corresponding stores remain plain stores.
Use WRITE_ONCE() for the updates so the intended lockless access is marked
consistently on both sides. This does not change locking, ordering, or

Simplify the code by only using one array to save the numa cma area.
And in rare case that a user really setup the 2 cmdline parameters

A deadlock occurs in the audit subsystem when duplicating
executable-related rules.
When a file is moved (e.g., via do_renameat2()), the VFS layer locks
the parent directory (I_MUTEX_PARENT), which synchronously triggers an
fsnotify_move event. If an existing executable audit rule matches the
file being moved, the audit subsystem catches this event and calls
audit_dupe_exe() to duplicate the watch and update the rule. Then,
audit_alloc_mark() would call kern_path_parent() to resolve the path,
leading to a blind attempt to acquire the exact same I_MUTEX_PARENT lock
already held by the task, resulting in the following recursive locking
deadlock:

The aforementioned deadlock can be consistently reproduced by running
the script below:
audit-dupe-exe-deadlock.sh
--------------------------
#!/bin/bash
auditctl -D
mkdir -p /tmp/foo
touch /tmp/file
auditctl -a always,exit -F exe=/tmp/file -F path=/tmp/file -S all -k dr
mv /tmp/file /tmp/foo/file
rm -Rf /tmp/foo
This patch fixes the issue by introducing struct audit_watch_ctx to pass
the fsnotify event context down to audit_alloc_mark(). By utilizing the
already-resolved directory inode provided by the event, we bypass the
kern_path_parent() path resolution entirely, safely avoiding the
recursive lock. Furthermore, it explicitly allows duplicate fsnotify
marks (allow_dups = 1) during the rename update, allowing the new rule's
mark to safely coexist with the old rule's mark until the old rule is
freed.
P.S.: This issue was identified and reproduced during a comprehensive
code coverage analysis of the audit subsystem. The full report is

When sibling CPU exclusion occurs, a partition's user_xcpus may contain
CPUs that were never actually granted to it. These CPUs are present in
user_xcpus(cs) but not in cs->effective_xcpus.
The partcmd_update path in update_parent_effective_cpumask() uses
user_xcpus(cs) (via the local variable xcpus) to compute the addmask
(CPUs to return to parent) and delmask (CPUs to request from parent).
This is incorrect:
1) When newmask removes a CPU that was previously excluded by a
sibling, addmask incorrectly includes that CPU and tries to return
it to the parent even though the partition never actually owned it,
causing CPU overlap with sibling partitions and triggering warnings
in generate_sched_domains().
2) When newmask adds a previously excluded CPU that is now available,
delmask fails to request it from the parent because user_xcpus(cs)
already includes it.
Fix this by using cs->effective_xcpus instead of user_xcpus(cs) in all
partcmd_update paths that calculate addmask or delmask, including the
PERR_NOCPUS error handling paths.
Reproducers:
Example 1 - Removing a sibling-excluded CPU incorrectly returns it:
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup
# echo "0-1" > a1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > a1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "0-2" > b1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > b1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "2" > b1/cpuset.cpus
# cat cpuset.cpus.effective
# Actual: 0-1,3 Expected: 3
Example 2 - Expanding to a previously excluded CPU fails to request it:
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup
# echo "0-1" > a1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > a1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "0-2" > b1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > b1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "member" > a1/cpuset.cpus.partition

print_worker_info() declares its local 'fn' as work_func_t * but
worker->current_func has type work_func_t (a function pointer). The
extra level of indirection is wrong and only happens to be harmless
today because every supported Linux architecture has
sizeof(work_func_t) == sizeof(work_func_t *):
copy_from_kernel_nofault() reads the correct number of bytes by
accident, and %ps still resolves the printed address because the
stored value is the function address regardless of declared type.
On any future ABI where sizeof(void (*)()) differs from
sizeof(void *), the nofault copy would transfer the wrong number of
bytes and the subsequent %ps would print an incorrect address.
Match the field type so the intent is explicit and the code does not
silently rely on equal pointer sizes.

When an audited executable is deleted from the disk, its dentry
becomes negative. Any later attempt to delete the associated audit
rule will lead to audit_alloc_mark() encountering this negative
dentry and immediately aborting, returning -ENOENT.
This early abort prevents the subsystem from allocating the temporary
fsnotify mark needed to construct the search key, meaning the kernel
cannot find the existing rule in its own lists to delete it. This
leaves a dangling rule in memory, resulting in the following error
while attempting to delete the rule:
# ./audit-dupe-exe-deadlock.sh
No rules
Error deleting rule (No such file or directory)
There was an error while processing parameters
# auditctl -l
-a always,exit -S all -F exe=/tmp/file -F path=/tmp/file -F key=dr
# auditctl -D
Error deleting rule (No such file or directory)
There was an error while processing parameters
This patch fixes this issue by removing the d_really_is_negative()
check. By doing so, a dummy mark can be successfully generated for
the deleted path, which allows the audit subsystem to properly match
and flush the dangling rule.

Reading /proc/interrupts iterates over the interrupt number space one by
one and looks up the descriptors one by one. That's just a waste of time.
When CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_SHOW is enabled this can utilize the maple tree and
cache the descriptor pointer efficiently for the sequence file operations.
Implement a CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_SHOW specific version in the core code and
leave the fs/proc/ variant for the legacy architectures which ignore generic
code.
This reduces the time wasted for looking up the next record significantly.

Quite some architectures have four character wide acronyms for architecture
specific interrupts like IPI, NMI, etc.
The default precision of printing the Linux device interrupt numbers is
three, which causes quite some code to play games with adding or omitting
space after the acronym and the colon in order to keep the per CPU numbers
properly aligned.
Increase the default number precision to four in the core code and get rid
of the space games all over the place. At the same time align all
architecture specific descriptor texts left so that they show up in the
same column as the interrupt chip names, which makes the output more
uniform accross architectures. Fix up the GDB script to this new scheme as

That can be simplified by caching the condition in an internal status flag,
which is updated when one of the relevant inputs changes.

Interrupts which are not marked per CPU increment not only the per CPU
statistics, but also the accumulation counter irq_desc::tot_count.
Change the counter to type unsigned long so it does not produce sporadic
zeros due to wrap arounds on 64-bit machines and do a quick check for non
per CPU interrupts. If the counter is zero, then simply emit a full set of
zero strings. That spares the evaluation of the per CPU counters completely
for interrupts with zero events.

The CRC uncompressed buffer pointer array has the same lifetime as
struct crc_data, but it is currently allocated separately. That adds
another allocation failure path and a matching cleanup branch without
providing any extra flexibility.
Store the pointer array as a flexible array member and allocate it
together with the crc_data using kzalloc_flex(). The array remains
zero-initialized, while the allocation and error handling become
simpler.

The reason for pick_next_task_fair() is the put/set optimization that
avoids touching the common ancestors. However, it is possible to
implement this in the put_prev_task() and set_next_task() calls as
used in put_prev_set_next_task().
Notably, put_prev_set_next_task() is the only site that:
- calls put_prev_task() with a .next argument;
- calls set_next_task() with .first = true.
This means that put_prev_task() can determine the common hierarchy and
stop there, and then set_next_task() can terminate where put_prev_task
stopped.

Commit c9d93a73ce ("sched/fair: Drop redundant RCU read lock in NOHZ
kick path") removed the rcu_read_lock()/unlock() pair from
set_cpu_sd_state_busy() and set_cpu_sd_state_idle() on the assumption
that all callers run in a safe context for rcu_dereference_all(): IRQs
disabled or cpus_write_lock() held.
That assumption is wrong for the CPU hotplug teardown path. When CPUs
are taken offline, set_cpu_sd_state_busy() is invoked via:
cpuhp/N kthread
cpuhp_thread_fun()
cpuhp_invoke_callback()
sched_cpu_deactivate()
nohz_balance_exit_idle()
set_cpu_sd_state_busy()
rcu_dereference_all(per_cpu(sd_llc, cpu))
The cpuhp kthread holds cpu_hotplug_lock (percpu-rwsem) but runs with
preemption and IRQs enabled. As a result, lockdep correctly reports a
suspicious RCU usage on CPU offline, e.g.:
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage

Fix this by adding RCU read lock coverage to the one caller that lacks
it: nohz_balance_exit_idle() in the CPU hotplug teardown.
The other callers (nohz_balancer_kick() and nohz_balance_enter_idle())
genuinely run with IRQs disabled, so they remain unchanged.

The dumpable flag captured at execve() is consulted by
__ptrace_may_access() and several /proc owner / visibility checks.
It lives on mm_struct today, which exit_mm() clears from the task
long before the task itself is reaped.
exec_state is anchored to the execve() that established the current
privilege domain. CLONE_VM siblings refcount-share the parent's
exec_state via copy_exec_state(); non-CLONE_VM clones allocate a
fresh exec_state inheriting the parent's dumpable mode and user_ns
reference via task_exec_state_copy(). execve() allocates a fresh
instance (via alloc_task_exec_state() in begin_new_exec()) and
installs it under task_lock + exec_update_lock with
task_exec_state_replace(). init_task uses a static instance.
The dumpable mode now lives on task->exec_state->dumpable.
task->mm->flags no longer carries dumpability; MMF_DUMPABLE_MASK is
removed, but MMF_DUMPABLE_BITS is reserved so MMF_DUMP_FILTER_* bit
positions remain stable for the /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter ABI. The
task->user_dumpable cache bit and its assignment in exit_mm() are
removed; readers go through get_dumpable(task) directly.
coredump_params gains a snapshot field cprm.dumpable, populated from
get_dumpable(current) at vfs_coredump() entry, replacing the previous
__get_dumpable(cprm->mm_flags) consumers in fs/coredump.c and
fs/pidfs.c.
The user namespace recorded at execve() is consulted by
__ptrace_may_access() and by /proc/PID/* owner derivation. Move the
captured user_ns onto task_exec_state, which stays attached to the task
past exit_mm() and across exit_files().
bprm grows a user_ns field staged in bprm_mm_init() with the caller's
user_ns, narrowed by would_dump() to the closest privileged ancestor,
and consumed by exec_mmap() via alloc_task_exec_state(bprm->user_ns).
free_bprm() releases the staging reference.
mm_struct loses ->user_ns entirely. Initializers in init-mm, efi_mm,
and the implicit one in mm_init()/dup_mm()/mm_alloc() are removed;
__mmdrop() drops the matching put_user_ns(). The kthread_use_mm()
WARN_ON_ONCE(!mm->user_ns) is no longer meaningful and goes too.

Commit 91e74fa8b1 ("kho: make sure preservations do not span multiple

span multiple NUMA nodes. If they do, the order is reduced and tried
again.
The same logic was not implemented for kho_unpreserve_pages(). This can
result in unpreserve calculating a different order than preserve, and
thus not actually unpreserving the pages.
Fix this by moving the order calculation logic to
__kho_preserve_pages_order() and use it from both preserve and
unpreserve paths.
Move __kho_unpreserve() down to avoid having a forward declaration. Its
users are further down in the file anyway. Also, it results in grouping
for all the page-level preservation and unpreservation functions. This
unfortunately makes the diff hard to read, but the main change in
__kho_unpreserve() is to call __kho_preserve_pages_order() instead of
open-coding the order calculation.

ops_cid.set_cmask() expects a cmask. The kernel couldn't write into the
arena, so it translated cpumask -> cmask in kernel memory and passed the
result as a trusted pointer. The BPF cmask helpers all operate on arena
cmasks though, so the BPF side had to word-by-word probe-read the kernel
cmask into an arena cmask via cmask_copy_from_kernel() before any helper
could touch it. It works, but is clumsy.
With direct kernel-side arena access now in place, build the cmask in the
arena. The kernel writes to it through the kern_va side of the dual mapping.
BPF directly dereferences it via an __arena pointer like any other arena

Build a per-scheduler sub-allocator on top of pages claimed from the BPF
arena registered in the previous patch. Subsequent kernel-managed
arena-resident structures (e.g. per-CPU set_cmask cmask) carve their storage
from this pool.
scx_arena_pool_init() creates a gen_pool. scx_arena_alloc() returns the
kernel VA. On exhaustion, the pool grows by claiming more pages via
bpf_arena_alloc_pages_sleepable(). Chunks are added at the kernel-side
mapping address. Callers translate to the BPF-arena form themselves if
needed.
Allocations sleep (GFP_KERNEL) - they may grow the pool through vzalloc and
arena page allocation. All current consumers run from the enable path (after
ops.init() and the kernel-side arena auto-discovery, before validate_ops()),
where sleeping is fine.
scx_arena_pool_destroy() walks each chunk, returns outstanding ranges to the
gen_pool with gen_pool_free() and then calls gen_pool_destroy(). The
underlying arena pages are released when the arena map itself is torn down,
so the pool destroy doesn't free them explicitly.

Upcoming patches will let the kernel place arena-resident scratch shared
with the BPF program (e.g. per-CPU set_cmask cmask) so the BPF side can
dereference it directly via __arena pointers, replacing the current
cmask_copy_from_kernel() probe-read loop. That requires each cid-form
scheduler to expose its arena to the kernel. Kernel- side accesses are
recovered by the per-arena scratch-page mechanism.
bpf_scx_reg_cid() walks the struct_ops member progs via
bpf_struct_ops_for_each_prog() and reads each prog's arena via
bpf_prog_arena(). The verifier enforces one arena per program, so each
member prog contributes at most one arena. All non-NULL contributions must
match and at least one member prog must use an arena. The map ref is held on
scx_sched and dropped on sched destroy. cpu-form schedulers (bpf_scx_reg)
are unchanged - no arena requirement.

v1 (RFC): https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260427105109.2554518-1-tj@kernel.org
Motivation
----------
sched_ext's ops_cid.set_cmask() hands the BPF scheduler a struct scx_cmask
*. The kernel translates a kernel cpumask to a cmask, but it had no way to
write into the arena, so the cmask lived in kernel memory and was passed as
a trusted pointer. BPF cmask helpers all operate on arena cmasks though, so
the BPF side had to word-by-word probe-read the kernel cmask into an arena
cmask via cmask_copy_from_kernel() before any helper could touch it. It
works, but is clumsy.
The shape isn't unique to set_cmask. Sub-scheduler support is on the way and
more sched_ext callbacks will want to pass structured data to BPF. Anywhere
a kfunc or struct_ops callback wants to hand a struct to a BPF program,
arena residence is the natural answer.
Approach
--------
Each arena gets a per-arena scratch page. Arenas stay sparsely mapped as
today - PTEs are populated only for allocated pages. A new arch fault hook
(bpf_arena_handle_page_fault) is wired into x86 page_fault_oops() and arm64
__do_kernel_fault(), after KFENCE. When a kernel-side access faults inside
an arena's kern_vm range, the helper walks the stack to find the BPF program
responsible, range-checks the fault address against prog->aux->arena, and
atomically installs the scratch page into the empty PTE via the new
ptep_try_set() wrapper. The kernel instruction retries and reads/writes the
scratch page. Free paths and map destruction treat scratch as non-owned.
Real allocation refuses to overwrite scratch (apply_range_set_cb returns
-EBUSY). A scratched address stays dead until map destroy, since its
presence means the BPF program has already malfunctioned.
The mechanism is default behavior - no UAPI flag.
What this preserves
-------------------
All the debugging properties of today's sparse-PTE design are preserved:
* BPF programs still fault on unmapped arena accesses. The fault semantics
(instruction retry with rdst = 0) and the violation report through
bpf_streams are unchanged for prog-side accesses.
* The first kernel-side touch of an unmapped address is reported via
bpf_streams the same way as a prog-side fault, with the stack walk
attributing it to the originating prog.
* User-side fault on a never-scratched address still lazy-allocates a real
page (or returns SIGSEGV under BPF_F_SEGV_ON_FAULT). User-side fault on a
scratched address SIGSEGVs.
What changes for the kernel-side caller is just that an unmapped deref no
longer oopses - it retries through the scratch page and emits a violation
report. The same shape today's BPF instruction faults have.
Patches 1-2 (atomic PTE install + arena scratch-page recovery)
--------------------------------------------------------------
mm: Add ptep_try_set() for lockless empty-slot installs
bpf: Recover arena kernel faults with scratch page
Patches 3-5 (helpers used by struct_ops registration)
-----------------------------------------------------
bpf: Add sleepable variant of bpf_arena_alloc_pages for kernel callers
bpf: Add bpf_struct_ops_for_each_prog()
bpf/arena: Add bpf_arena_map_kern_vm_start() and bpf_prog_arena()

Introduce an adaptive latching mechanism:
* Track the number of in-flight synchronize_rcu() requests
using a new rcu_sr_normal_count counter;
* If the count reaches/exceeds RCU_SR_NORMAL_LATCH_THR(64),
it sets the rcu_sr_normal_latched, reverting new requests
onto the scaled wait_rcu_gp() path;
* The latch is cleared only when the pending requests are fully
drained(nr == 0);
* Enables rcu_normal_wake_from_gp by default for all systems,
relying on this dynamic throttling instead of static CPU
limits.
