Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add option traceoff_after_boot
In order to debug kernel boot, it sometimes is helpful to enable
tracing via the kernel command line. Unfortunately, by the time the
login prompt appears, the trace is overwritten by the init process
and other user space start up applications.
Adding a "traceoff_after_boot" will disable tracing when the kernel
passes control to init which will allow developers to be able to see
the traces that occurred during boot.
- Clean up the mmflags macros that display the GFP flags in trace
events
The macros to print the GFP flags for trace events had a bit of
duplication. The code was restructured to remove duplication and in
the process it also adds some flags that were missed before.
- Removed some dead code and scripts/draw_functrace.py
draw_functrace.py hasn't worked in years and as nobody complained
about it, remove it.
- Constify struct event_trigger_ops
The event_trigger_ops is just a structure that has function pointers
that are assigned when the variables are created. These variables
should all be constants.
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

Pull tracing / sorttable updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Implement arm64 build time sorting of the mcount location table
When gcc is used to build arm64, the mcount_loc section is all zeros
in the vmlinux elf file. The addresses are stored in the Elf_Rela
location.
To sort at build time, an array is allocated and the addresses are
added to it via the content of the mcount_loc section as well as he
Elf_Rela data. After sorting, the information is put back into the
Elf_Rela which now has the section sorted.
- Make sorting of mcount location table for arm64 work with clang as
well
When clang is used, the mcount_loc section contains the addresses,
unlike the gcc build. An array is still created and the sorting works
for both methods.
- Remove weak functions from the mcount_loc section
Have the sorttable code pass in the data of functions defined via
'nm -S' which shows the functions as well as their sizes. Using this
information the sorttable code can determine if a function in the
mcount_loc section was weak and overridden. If the function is not
found, it is set to be zero. On boot, when the mcount_loc section is
read and the ftrace table is created, if the address in the
mcount_loc is not in the kernel core text then it is removed and not
added to the ftrace_filter_functions (the functions that can be
attached by ftrace callbacks).
- Update and fix the reporting of how much data is used for ftrace
functions
On boot, a report of how many pages were used by the ftrace table as
well as how they were grouped (the table holds a list of sections
that are groups of pages that were able to be allocated). The
removing of the weak functions required the accounting to be updated.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
(IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls)
- Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.
- Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked) in
BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.
- Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
Rx via io_uring.
- Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.
- Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream
performance up to 2x.
- Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching for
an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock. Bring an
additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.
- Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.
- Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
ping flood.
- Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.
- Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
identify network namespaces and their roles. There are up to 4
namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns pointer arguments,
interpreted differently based on context.
- Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.
- Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout in
TCP.
- Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.
- Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
- Add additional SELinux access controls for kernel file reads/loads
The SELinux kernel file read/load access controls were never updated
beyond the initial kernel module support, this pull request adds
support for firmware, kexec, policies, and x.509 certificates.
- Add support for wildcards in network interface names
There are a number of userspace tools which auto-generate network
interface names using some pattern of <XXXX>-<NN> where <XXXX> is a
fixed string, e.g. "podman", and <NN> is a increasing counter.
Supporting wildcards in the SELinux policy for network interfaces
simplifies the policy associted with these interfaces.
- Fix a potential problem in the kernel read file SELinux code
SELinux should always check the file label in the
security_kernel_read_file() LSM hook, regardless of if the file is
being read in chunks. Unfortunately, the existing code only
considered the file label on the first chunk; this pull request fixes
this problem.
There is more detail in the individual commit, but thankfully the
existing code didn't expose a bug due to multi-stage reads only
taking place in one driver, and that driver loading a file type that
isn't targeted by the SELinux policy.
- Fix the subshell error handling in the example policy loader
Minor fix to SELinux example policy loader in scripts/selinux due to
an undesired interaction with subshells and errexit.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is the new option to automatically fail the build
on objtool warnings: CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR.
While there are no currently known unfixed false positives left, such
an expansion in the severity of objtool warnings inevitably creates a
risk of build failures, so it's disabled by default and depends on
!COMPILE_TEST, so it shouldn't be enabled on
allyesconfig/allmodconfig builds and won't be forced on people who
just accept build-time defaults in 'make oldconfig'.
While the option is strongly recommended, only people who enable it
explicitly should see it.

Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- Mount notifications
The day has come where we finally provide a new api to listen for
mount topology changes outside of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo. A mount
namespace file descriptor can be supplied and registered with
fanotify to listen for mount topology changes.
Currently notifications for mount, umount and moving mounts are
generated. The generated notification record contains the unique
mount id of the mount.
The listmount() and statmount() api can be used to query detailed
information about the mount using the received unique mount id.
This allows userspace to figure out exactly how the mount topology
changed without having to generating diffs of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
in userspace.
- Support O_PATH file descriptors with FSCONFIG_SET_FD in the new mount
api
- Support detached mounts in overlayfs
Since last cycle we support specifying overlayfs layers via file
descriptors. However, we don't allow detached mounts which means
userspace cannot user file descriptors received via
open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE) and fsmount() directly. They have to
attach them to a mount namespace via move_mount() first.
This is cumbersome and means they have to undo mounts via umount().
Allow them to directly use detached mounts.
- Allow to retrieve idmappings with statmount
Currently it isn't possible to figure out what idmapping has been
attached to an idmapped mount. Add an extension to statmount() which
allows to read the idmapping from the mount.
- Allow creating idmapped mounts from mounts that are already idmapped
So far it isn't possible to allow the creation of idmapped mounts
from already idmapped mounts as this has significant lifetime
implications. Make the creation of idmapped mounts atomic by allow to
pass struct mount_attr together with the open_tree_attr() system call
allowing to solve these issues without complicating VFS lookup in any
way.
The system call has in general the benefit that creating a detached
mount and applying mount attributes to it becomes an atomic operation
for userspace.
- Add a way to query statmount() for supported options
Allow userspace to query which mount information can be retrieved
through statmount().
- Allow superblock owners to force unmount

Objtool warnings can be indicative of crashes, broken live patching, or
even boot failures. Ignoring them is not recommended.
Add CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR to upgrade objtool warnings to errors by
enabling the objtool --Werror option. Also set --backtrace to print the
branches leading up to the warning, which can help considerably when
debugging certain warnings.
To avoid breaking bots too badly for now, make it the default for real
world builds only (!COMPILE_TEST).

Both get_feat.pl and list-arch.sh use uname -m to get the machine hardware
name to figure out the current architecture if no architecture is specified
with a command line option.
This doesn't work for s390, since for 64 bit kernels the hardware name is
s390x, while the architecture name within the kernel, as well as in all
feature files is s390.
Therefore substitute s390x with s390 similar to what is already done for
x86_64 and i386.

Commit 8c4555ccc55c ("scripts: add `generate_rust_analyzer.py`")
specified OBJTREE for the bindings crate, and `source.include_dirs` for
the kernel crate, likely in an attempt to support out-of-source builds
for those crates where the generated files reside in `objtree` rather
than `srctree`. This was insufficient because both bits of configuration
are required for each crate; the result is that rust-analyzer is unable
to resolve generated files for either crate in an out-of-source build.
[ Originally we were not using `OBJTREE` in the `kernel` crate, but
we did pass the variable anyway, so conceptually it could have been
there since then.
Regarding `include_dirs`, it started in `kernel` before being in
mainline because we included the bindings directly there (i.e.
there was no `bindings` crate). However, when that crate got
created, we moved the `OBJTREE` there but not the `include_dirs`.
Nowadays, though, we happen to need the `include_dirs` also in
the `kernel` crate for `generated_arch_static_branch_asm.rs` which
was not there back then -- Tamir confirms it is indeed required
for that reason. - Miguel ]

Add a "template" crc-clmul-template.h that can generate RISC-V Zbc
optimized CRC functions. Each generated CRC function is parameterized
by CRC length and bit order, and it accepts a pointer to the constants
struct required for the specific CRC polynomial desired. Update
gen-crc-consts.py to support generating the needed constants structs.
This makes it possible to easily wire up a Zbc optimized implementation
of almost any CRC.
The design generally follows what I did for x86, but it is simplified by
using RISC-V's scalar carryless multiplication Zbc, which has no
equivalent on x86. RISC-V's clmulr instruction is also helpful. A
potential switch to Zvbc (or support for Zvbc alongside Zbc) is left for
future work. For long messages Zvbc should be fastest, but it would
need to be shown to be worthwhile over just using Zbc which is
significantly more convenient to use, especially in the kernel context.
Compared to the existing Zbc-optimized CRC32 code and the earlier
proposed Zbc-optimized CRC-T10DIF code
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250211071101.181652-1-zhihang.shao.iscas@gmail.com),
this submission deduplicates the code among CRC variants and is
significantly more optimized. It uses "folding" to take better
advantage of instruction-level parallelism (to a more limited extent
than x86 for now, but it could be extended to more), it reworks the
Barrett reduction to eliminate unnecessary instructions, and it
documents all the math used and makes all the constants reproducible.

To make integer wrap-around mitigation actually useful, the associated
sanitizers must not instrument cases where the wrap-around is explicitly
defined (e.g. "-2UL"), being tested for (e.g. "if (a + b < a)"), or
where it has no impact on code flow (e.g. "while (var--)"). Enable
pattern exclusions for the integer wrap sanitizers.

Since we're going to approach integer overflow mitigation a type at a
time, we need to enable all of the associated sanitizers, and then opt
into types one at a time.
Rename the existing "signed wrap" sanitizer to just the entire topic area:
"integer wrap". Enable the implicit integer truncation sanitizers, with
required callbacks and tests.
Notably, this requires features (currently) only available in Clang,
so we can depend on the cc-option tests to determine availability
instead of doing version tests.

ARM 64 uses -fpatchable-function-entry=4,2 which adds padding before the
function and the addresses in the mcount_loc point there instead of the
function entry that is returned by nm. In order to find a function from nm
to make sure it's not an unused weak function, the entries in the
mcount_loc section needs to match the entries from nm. Since it can be an
instruction before the entry, add a before_func variable that ARM 64 can
set to 8, and if the mcount_loc entry is within 8 bytes of the nm function
entry, then it will be considered a match.

When ARM 64 is compiled with gcc, the mcount_loc section will be filled
with zeros and the addresses will be located in the Elf_Rela sections. To
sort the mcount_loc section, the addresses from the Elf_Rela need to be
placed into an array and that is sorted.
But when ARM 64 is compiled with clang, it does it the same way as other
architectures and leaves the addresses as is in the mcount_loc section.
To handle both cases, ARM 64 will first try to sort the Elf_Rela section,
and if it doesn't find any functions, it will then fall back to the
sorting of the addresses in the mcount_loc section itself.

to 15.0.0, as that is the first version that has support for
'-mstack-protector-guard-symbol', which is used unconditionally after:
80d47defddc0 ("x86/stackprotector/64: Convert to normal per-CPU variable"):

When a function is annotated as "weak" and is overridden, the code is not
removed. If it is traced, the fentry/mcount location in the weak function
will be referenced by the "__mcount_loc" section. This will then be added
to the available_filter_functions list. Since only the address of the
functions are listed, to find the name to show, a search of kallsyms is
used.
Since kallsyms will return the function by simply finding the function
that the address is after but before the next function, an address of a
weak function will show up as the function before it. This is because
kallsyms does not save names of weak functions. This has caused issues in
the past, as now the traced weak function will be listed in
available_filter_functions with the name of the function before it.
At best, this will cause the previous function's name to be listed twice.
At worse, if the previous function was marked notrace, it will now show up
as a function that can be traced. Note that it only shows up that it can
be traced but will not be if enabled, which causes confusion.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220412094923.0abe90955e5db486b7bca279@kernel.org/
The commit b39181f7c6907 ("ftrace: Add FTRACE_MCOUNT_MAX_OFFSET to avoid
adding weak function") was a workaround to this by checking the function
address before printing its name. If the address was too far from the
function given by the name then instead of printing the name it would
print: __ftrace_invalid_address___<invalid-offset>
The real issue is that these invalid addresses are listed in the ftrace
table look up which available_filter_functions is derived from. A place
holder must be listed in that file because set_ftrace_filter may take a
series of indexes into that file instead of names to be able to do O(1)
lookups to enable filtering (many tools use this method).
Even if kallsyms saved the size of the function, it does not remove the
need of having these place holders. The real solution is to not add a weak
function into the ftrace table in the first place.
To solve this, the sorttable.c code that sorts the mcount regions during
the build is modified to take a "nm -S vmlinux" input, sort it, and any
function listed in the mcount_loc section that is not within a boundary of
the function list given by nm is considered a weak function and is zeroed
out.
Note, this does not mean they will remain zero when booting as KASLR
will still shift those addresses. To handle this, the entries in the
mcount_loc section will be ignored if they are zero or match the
kaslr_offset() value.
Before:
~# grep __ftrace_invalid_address___ /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions | wc -l
551
After:
~# grep __ftrace_invalid_address___ /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions | wc -l
0

The sorting of the mcount_loc section is done directly to the section for
x86 and arm32 but it uses a separate array for arm64 as arm64 has the
values for the mcount_loc stored in the rela sections of the vmlinux ELF
file.
In order to use the same code to remove weak functions, always use a
separate array to do the sorting. This requires splitting up the filling
of the array into one function and the placing the contents of the array
back into the rela sections or into the mcount_loc section into a separate
file.

The mcount_loc sorting for when the values are stored in the Elf_Rela
entries uses the compare_extable() function to do the compares in the
qsort(). That function does handle byte swapping if the machine being
compiled for is a different endian than the host machine. But the
sort_relocs() function sorts an array that pulled in the values from the
Elf_Rela section and has already done the swapping.
Create two new compare functions that will sort the direct values. One
will sort 32 bit values and the other will sort the 64 bit value. One of
these will be assigned to a compare_values function pointer and that will
be used for sorting the Elf_Rela mcount values.

The mcount_loc section holds the addresses of the functions that get
patched by ftrace when enabling function callbacks. It can contain tens of
thousands of entries. These addresses must be sorted. If they are not
sorted at compile time, they are sorted at boot. Sorting at boot does take
some time and does have a small impact on boot performance.
x86 and arm32 have the addresses in the mcount_loc section of the ELF
file. But for arm64, the section just contains zeros. The .rela.dyn
Elf_Rela section holds the addresses and they get patched at boot during
the relocation phase.
In order to sort these addresses, the Elf_Rela needs to be updated instead
of the location in the binary that holds the mcount_loc section. Have the
sorttable code, allocate an array to hold the functions, load the
addresses from the Elf_Rela entries, sort them, then put them back in
order into the Elf_rela entries so that they will be sorted at boot up
without having to sort them during boot up.

Stack protector support on 64-bit currently requires that the percpu
section is linked at absolute address 0, because older compilers fixed
the location of the canary value relative to the GS segment base.
GCC 8.1 introduced options to change where the canary value is located,
allowing it to be configured as a standard per-CPU variable. This has
already been done for 32-bit. Doing the same for 64-bit will enable
removing the code needed to support zero-based percpu.

Since commit 5f73e7d0386d ("kbuild: refactor cross-compiling
linux-headers package"), the linux-headers Debian package fails to
build when $(CC) cannot build userspace applications, for example,
when using toolchains installed by the 0day bot.
The host programs in the linux-headers package should be rebuilt using
the disto's cross-compiler, ${DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE}-gcc instead of $(CC).
Hence, the variable 'CC' must be expanded in this shell script instead
of in the top-level Makefile.
Commit f354fc88a72a ("kbuild: install-extmod-build: add missing
quotation marks for CC variable") was not a correct fix because
CC="ccache gcc" should be unrelated when rebuilding userspace tools.

Kernel-doc has an obscure logic that uses an external file
to map files via a .tmp_filelist.txt file stored at the current
directory. The rationale for such code predates git time,
as it was added on Kernel v2.4.5.5, with the following description:
# 26/05/2001 - Support for separate source and object trees.
# Return error code.
# Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au>
from commit 396a6123577d ("v2.4.5.4 -> v2.4.5.5") at the historic
tree:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/history/history.git/
Support for separate source and object trees is now done on a different
way via make O=<object>.
There's no logic to create such file, so it sounds to me that this is
just dead code.
So, drop it.

The undefined logic is complex and has lots of magic on it.
Implement it, using the same algorithm we have at get_abi.pl. Yet,
some tweaks to optimize performance and to make the code simpler
were added here:
- at the perl version, the tree graph had loops, so we had to
use BFS to traverse it. On this version, the graph is a tree,
so, it simplifies the what group for sysfs aliases;
- the logic which splits regular expressions into subgroups
was re-written to make it faster;
- it may optionally use multiple processes to search for symbol
matches;
- it has some additional debug levels.
