4 daysassoc_array: don't chain a new shortcut onto an existing oneLinus Torvalds
When a full node's leaves and the new key all share the node's segment, assoc_array_insert_into_terminal_node() replaces the node with a shortcut to a pair of new nodes. If the node is itself the target of a shortcut, the new shortcut is installed as that shortcut's next node, and a shortcut leading to a shortcut is something nothing expects: assoc_array_walk() indexes the second one as a node, and assoc_array_apply_edit() hits the BUG_ON() in the loop that adjusts nr_leaves_on_branch, on that same insertion. Deletion gets a node there. When the subtree below a shortcut shrinks enough, assoc_array_delete() collapses it into one node below the shortcut, and the leaves it collects can all share that node's segment. The next key that shares it too takes this path. Eighteen insertions and a deletion are enough: sixteen keys that agree on bits 0-11, one that leaves them at bit 8 and is deleted again, and one more that agrees with the sixteen. Have the new shortcut replace the one in front of the node as well. assoc_array_insert_shortcut() gives it that shortcut's back pointer and parent slot, so the caller installs it where that one was, and excises the old shortcut along with the node, which takes a second entry in excised_meta[]. The new shortcut's index key comes from the new key up to the new skip level, so it covers what the old one did. Found by a userspace test doing random insertions and deletions on keys that share long prefixes; a targeted case builds a shortcut, deletes down to the collapse and inserts one more key.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner: "This contains fixes for the current development cycle. All of them came out of a review of the mount code that started with a bug report. The review modeled the corner cases of mount propagation, unmounting and mount reference counting and turned up a lot of bugs. Most of them years old. Most fixes come with a selftest. - Rework connected mounts. A mount that is unmounted together with its parent can stay attached to the parent to keep its mountpoint covered. That happens when the mountpoint is removed with rmdir(), unlink() or rename(), when a detached tree is dissolved, and for locked mounts in any umount that isn't synchronous, including the teardown of their mount namespace. The parent then owns the child and drops it on its own final mntput(). So any reference from the child's superblock back to one of its ancestors becomes a cycle that is never freed. A loop device backed by an image on a tmpfs and mounted on that same tmpfs is enough. Remove the directory the tmpfs is mounted on from the host, let the container's mount namespace exit, and the loop device, the tmpfs and the filesystem on the loop device are leaked for good. The same works with autofs, zram, ecryptfs, binfmt_misc, fuse passthrough, zloop, a mass storage gadget and md, and the selftests have reproducers for them. This has been possible since v4.1. It is also why "put_mnt_ns(): leave mounts connected" was reverted in -rc5. Keeping every mount of a dying mount namespace connected made these cycles trivial to create. Every unmounted mount is now detached from its parent. Where the mountpoint has to stay covered the mount leaves a cover on the parent instead, allocated together with the mount. A lookup on the unmounted parent that hits a cover finds an empty immutable directory or file on the private nullfs instance. Nothing leads from a cover to another mount, so no unmounted mount owns another one and no cycle can form. This is visible to userspace. A formerly connected mount can no longer be reached through its unmounted parent and ".." inside it leads nowhere, as for every other lazily unmounted mount. With that the private nullfs instance becomes reachable from userspace, so it now refuses mounts on top, is mounted read-only, and refuses fsnotify marks and file locks. Its inodes are shared by every holder and a watch or a lock would otherwise reach across users. may_decode_fh() now also decides its subtree check under a single mount_lock hold, as a racing umount could otherwise let it decode into what a locked child covered. - umount: * Don't silently unmount busy mounts. Since v4.13 propagate_umount() takes down propagated copies of the victim with children as long as each child is an overmount or another copy of the victim, but propagate_mount_busy() only ever checked copies without children or with just an overmount. A container that moved a tree beneath its copy of a host mount lost that tree from under its open file descriptor to a plain umount() on the host. propagate_mount_busy() now applies the same rules, walking each chain of copies once. * Don't let a migrating task hide its reference from umount(). mnt_get_count() sums the per-cpu counters under mount_lock but the mntget() and mntput() fast paths don't take it. A task that takes a reference on a cpu the sum has already passed and drops it after migrating to one the sum hasn't reached yet hides the reference it held to begin with, and umount() succeeds with the file still open. Gets and puts now live in separate per-cpu counters and all puts are summed before all gets with a full barrier in between, the way srcu_readers_active_idx_check() does it. mntget() is unchanged and mntput() gains an smp_wmb(). * Check each submount for references right before unmounting it. shrink_submounts() and mark_mounts_for_expiry() checked all their victims up front. Unmounting the first could move a busy overmount to where the next victim's propagated copy is looked up and it was then unmounted without a check. * Never expire a locked mount. A shrinkable mount moved beneath a locked mount with MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH takes over the lock, and umount() of an unlocked ancestor expired it and revealed what it covered. That umount() now fails with EBUSY as it does for any other locked child. A lazy umount still takes the whole tree. - Overmounts and locked mounts: * Unhash a dentry before detaching the mounts on it. unlink(), rmdir() and rename() detach the mounts on the victim but only d_delete() it once its inode is unlocked, a window that includes an expedited RCU grace period. In between, a lookup from a mount namespace in which the dentry is a mountpoint found it hashed, positive and uncovered. Drop the dentry first, as d_invalidate() already does. * Don't reveal overmounted entries in refwalk. A refwalk that had grabbed the dentry before the unlink never rechecked it the way rcuwalk does with d_seq and mount_lock. Without any artificial widening three walkers read the covered file 27 times in a minute. step_into() now fails an unhashed dentry marked DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT with -ESTALE and the walk is retried. * Keep covered mounts covered in OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE. Creating such a mount namespace only takes a user namespace and the copy followed bind mount rules: no children without AT_RECURSIVE and no unbindable mounts with it. An unprivileged user could see what mounts covered in the source, such as the parts of /proc and /sys that container runtimes mask. If the caller doesn't own the source mount namespace a non-recursive copy of a mount with something mounted below the requested directory is now refused and a recursive copy includes unbindable mounts, the way unshare() copies. * Keep the lock on a mount that a propagated copy is moved beneath. MNT_LOCKED moved to any mount that ended up beneath a locked mount, propagated copies included. A host mount and umount on a directory covered by a locked mount in a less privileged mount namespace left that cover unlocked for the namespace's owner to remove. Only mounts the caller places beneath take over the lock now. * Handle mount locking for automounts correctly. Which copies to lock was decided by the mount namespace of the task that triggered the automount. A task in a user namespace that triggered one on a host mount through a file descriptor got the host's own automount locked while its own copy stayed unlocked and could have nosuid, nodev and noexec cleared. Use the owner of the mount namespace the mount lands in. - Use-after-free and crashes: * Refuse an automount below a mount that is in no namespace. The private clones overlayfs uses for its layers have the MNT_NS_INTERNAL error pointer as their namespace, which finish_automount() let through and count_mounts() dereferenced. A fanotify filesystem mark on an overlayfs lower layer hands out file descriptors on such a clone. With debugfs as the lower layer opening "tracing" oopses with namespace_sem held for writing and every mount operation on the system blocks from then on. * Reset the old parent's ->overmount in mnt_change_mountpoint(). When propagate_umount() moved an overmount off a mount that a file descriptor kept alive, MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH through that descriptor later followed the stale pointer into the freed overmount. * statmount() with STATMOUNT_BY_FD and pivot_root() read the parent of a mount that may be unmounted and only held by a file descriptor, while the parent's final mntput() can free it. statmount() now reads it under mount_lock and pivot_root() first checks that both mounts are in the caller's mount namespace. * Queue a mount only once for mount notifications. A mount reparented by one umount_tree() and taken down by the next under the same namespace_sem hold, as in shrink_submounts(), was queued twice. That cut the mounts queued in between out of notify_list while it still pointed at them, and once they were freed every later mount operation walked freed memory. * Don't let a pseudo dentry become the root of a mount. A bind mount of a bpf token file did that with a DCACHE_NORCU dentry, which is freed without an RCU grace period while lockless path walks may still look at it. Refuse to clone such a mount. * Don't inherit MNT_UMOUNT in clone_mnt(). A bind mount of a lazily unmounted nsfs or pidfs mount through its file descriptor started out flagged as unmounted. Among other things __detach_mounts() then dropped the namespace's reference on it, the mount outlived its namespace and mount_setattr() through the descriptor read the freed namespace. A recursive bind mount of such a mount also copied the unmounted stack still attached to it. That now fails with EINVAL, copying the mount itself still works. * Remove the fsnotify marks of a mount namespace in free_mnt_ns() instead of the RCU callback that frees the namespace, where taking the group mutexes meant sleeping in softirq context. - Propagation and copies: * Keep a copied mount unbindable. Since v6.17 clone_mnt() didn't copy the unbindable flag, so every mount namespace created with CLONE_NEWNS had bindable copies of all unbindable mounts. This had been fixed once before. * Refuse MOVE_MOUNT_SET_GROUP on an unbindable mount. It made the mount an unbindable slave, a state nothing else can produce, or silently dropped the unbindable flag. CRIU applies MS_UNBINDABLE after restoring sharing and isn't affected. * Check a recursive bind mount for mount namespace loops. Recursively bind mounting a tree from another mount namespace could put a mount of a namespace's file inside that same namespace, which then pins itself and all its mounts. Repeating it leaks without limit, the reproducer took Shmem from 380 kB to 65916 kB. The copy is now checked with check_for_nsfs_mounts() before it is grafted, as move_mount() does. * Look at the topmost mount for a mount namespace file. attach_recursive_mnt() never looked at the topmost mount of the source's chain of overmounts. If that was the chain's only mount namespace file an existing mount at a propagated destination got buried below the root of the nsfs file where no path walk reaches it. * Don't put a mountpoint on a dentry that's being removed. attach_recursive_mnt() makes a mountpoint of the source's root without its inode lock, so a racing rmdir() of that directory could leave a mount on it that nothing ever detaches. d_set_mounted() now checks cant_mount() as well. - nullfs: * Take no inode lock for readdir of an immutable directory. The root of every empty mount namespace is the same nullfs directory and iterate_dir() held its i_rwsem across ->iterate_shared(). A reader whose buffer faults on a FUSE mount of its own holds it for as long as its server wants, and with an exclusive locker queued behind it every lookup that misses the dcache, every create and every mount in that directory waits. One user of an empty mount namespace stalls all others. Directories with the new FOP_IMMUTABLE flag skip the lock. * Refuse to reconfigure internal superblocks through fspick(), MS_REMOUNT or the read-only remount that a synchronous umount() of the root does. For nullfs only root in the initial user namespace could do it, but the superblock is shared by every mount namespace and the flags showed up in statfs() for all of them. * Don't update the access time on nullfs and refuse F_SET_RW_HINT on an immutable inode. - unshare: Free an nsproxy that was never installed with nsproxy_free() when set_cred_ucounts() fails. put_nsproxy() dropped active references that were never taken, which triggered a warning and hid the caller's own namespaces from listns(). - Smaller changes: mount_setattr() checks the target before it walks the tree to allocate peer group ids, unshare() puts the old fs_struct before the old namespaces, dissolve_on_fput() drops the file's reference to the tree itself, disconnect_mount() is simplified and the documentation of the propagated unmount rule is brought up to date" * tag 'vfs-7.3-rc7.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (58 commits) namespace: simplify disconnect_mount() selftests/filesystems: test covered mounts namespace: rework connected mounts nullfs: add an empty immutable regular file selftests/filesystems: check that reading the root of an empty mount namespace stalls nobody selftests/filesystems: add a helper that holds a readdir in a page fault readdir: take no inode lock on an immutable directory nullfs: refuse file locks fsnotify: let a filesystem refuse marks on its objects namespace: nothing is mounted on or written through knullfs namespace: keep the private nullfs instance in knullfs fhandle: decide the subtree check under mount_lock selftests/filesystems: check that an automount below an overlay layer is refused selftests/filesystems: check the atime of the empty mount namespace root selftests/filesystems: check that a lock lands on the right mount and stays namespace: keep the lock on a mount that a propagated copy is moved beneath namespace: never expire a locked mount nullfs: don't update the access time namespace: handle mount locking for automounts correctly namespace: refuse an automount below a mount that is in no namespace ...

11 daysnet: always dissect GSO packets in __virtio_net_hdr_to_skb()Eric Dumazet
Commit 9e8db5913264 ("net: avoid false positives in untrusted gso validation") added a '&& skb->network_header' check before flow-dissecting GSO packets without VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM in __virtio_net_hdr_to_skb(), because some callers (such as tun_get_user(), tun_xdp_one(), virtnet_receive_done(), and raw_verify_header()) called virtio_net_hdr_*_to_skb() before initializing skb->network_header and skb->dev. Because __alloc_skb() and __build_skb_around() zero-initialize skb->network_header to 0 (unlike mac_header and transport_header which are initialized to ~0U), those four callers always had skb->network_header == 0 and bypassed flow dissection in __virtio_net_hdr_to_skb(). More generally, skb->network_header is an offset from skb->head (where 0 is also a valid offset whenever skb_headroom(skb) is 0), not a boolean flag. Whenever the 'if (gso_type && skb->network_header)' branch was skipped, the fallback 'else if (gso_type)' only pulled nh_min_len + thlen (40 bytes for TCPv4) without dissecting the packet, without validating ip_proto or n_proto, and without setting skb->transport_header. If the packet has a malformed network header, it is not rejected and a subsequent skb_probe_transport_header() also fails, leaving skb->transport_header at ~0U (0xffff). Similarly, if an IPv4 packet carries IP options (ihl > 5) or an IPv6 packet carries extension headers, pulling only nh_min_len + thlen can leave the TCP header outside skb->head. In both cases, tcp_hdrlen(skb) in skb_gso_transport_seglen() reads out-of-bounds: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in skb_gso_transport_seglen Read of size 2 by task poc/133 skb_gso_transport_seglen (net/core/gso.c:155) skb_gso_validate_mac_len (net/core/gso.c:270) tbf_enqueue (net/sched/sch_tbf.c:260) dev_qdisc_enqueue (net/core/dev.c:4227) __dev_queue_xmit (net/core/dev.c:4884) In addition, checking virtio_net_hdr_match_proto() only inside 'if (!skb->protocol)' before flow dissection both skipped validation when skb->protocol was pre-set by the caller and rejected VLAN-tagged frames whose outer L2 protocol is ETH_P_8021Q or ETH_P_8021AD. Fix this by: 1. Initializing skb->dev and skb->network_header (plus skb->protocol for IFF_TUN) before virtio_net_hdr_*_to_skb() in tun_get_user(), tun_xdp_one(), virtnet_receive_done(), and raw_verify_header(). In tun_get_user(), drop the redundant skb_reset_mac_header(skb) in the IFF_TUN case since __virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() unconditionally resets mac_header. 2. Removing '&& skb->network_header' and the unvalidated 'else if (gso_type)' fallback in __virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() so all GSO packets without VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM are flow-dissected, have their transport header pulled into linear data, and have skb->transport_header set. 3. Moving the virtio_net_hdr_match_proto() check to after skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys_basic(), validating keys.basic.n_proto against hdr_gso_type.

13 daysreaddir: take no inode lock on an immutable directoryChristian Brauner
iterate_dir() takes the directory's i_rwsem shared and holds it across ->iterate_shared(). For a directory that never has an entry and is never removed the lock keeps nothing still, it only orders every reader and every writer of that inode behind each other. For the directory of a nullfs instance that matters. The instance of the initial mount namespace is the root of every empty mount namespace and the private instance is the root of every kernel thread, so one inode is shared across users who have nothing else in common. And a reader can hold the lock for as long as it likes: back the getdents() buffer with a mapping of a file on a FUSE mount of your own, let the copy of "." and ".." fault and let the server wait. Queue an exclusive taker behind it, a mkdir() in that directory goes through start_dirop() before the read-only mount is reported, and from then on every lookup that misses the dcache in that directory, every create and every mount on it waits until the server answers. One user of an empty mount namespace stalls all the others. Add FOP_IMMUTABLE for the file operations of a directory that never changes and is never removed and let iterate_dir() skip the lock for it. The flag never changes for a file, ->f_pos is protected by f_pos_lock since directories are FMODE_ATOMIC_POS, IS_DEADDIR can't be set on such a directory and neither touch_atime() nor fsnotify take i_rwsem. Set it on the nullfs directory. The placeholder directories of libfs never have an entry either but their owners remove them, so they keep the lock.

There's nothing to watch on a permanently empty and immutable filesystem.

14 dayssched_ext: Generate qseq from a per-task counterKuba Piecuch
finish_dispatch() uses the qseq embedded in p->scx.ops_state to tell whether the QUEUED instance of a task it's about to claim is the one scx_bpf_dsq_insert() saw. qseq is generated from rq->scx.ops_qseq, but the counters of different rqs are independent, so if a task is dequeued and re-enqueued on a different rq between scx_bpf_dsq_insert() and finish_dispatch(), the new QUEUED instance can end up with the same qseq as the old one: CPU X CPU Z ----- ----- enqueue p on rq A, qseq = N ops.dispatch() scx_bpf_dsq_insert(p) records qseq N sched_setaffinity(p) dequeue p from rq A enqueue p on rq B, qseq = N finish_dispatch(p, N) qseq matches, p is claimed The claim itself is still atomic so the core stays consistent, but an insert issued for a previous QUEUED instance gets applied to a new one which the BPF scheduler has just received through ops.enqueue(). This breaks the guarantee that dispatches targeting a stale instance are ignored. Generate qseq from a per-task counter, p->scx.ops_qseq, instead so that consecutive QUEUED instances of a task never share a qseq regardless of which rq they're on. The counter is only updated in scx_do_enqueue_task() with the task's rq locked, so no additional synchronization is needed, and it fits in an existing hole in struct sched_ext_entity on 64bit. Remove the now unused rq->scx.ops_qseq. Never generate qseq 0. NONE and DISPATCHING don't carry a qseq, so scx_bpf_dsq_insert() on a task in either state records 0. With a per-task counter, every task's first QUEUED instance would otherwise get qseq 0 and could be claimed by such an insert. Wrap the counter where the QSEQ field wraps so that it can't reach a value that shifts to 0 on 32bit either.

2026-10-02braille: nbcon: Allow to use a serial console with NBCON API as Braille consolePetr Mladek
The Braille console is not registered in console_list. Instead, it is integrated with the virtual terminal (VT) and shows what is displayed on the terminal. It writes the data using con->write*() callback of the associated serial console driver. braille_write() is called from the VT code under console_lock(). The associated serial console driver can be converted to the NBCON API though. The situation is similar to flushing nbcon consoles in the legacy loop when some boot consoles are still registered, see nbcon_legacy_emit_next_record(). But there is a big difference though. braille_write() is not directly called from the code paths flushing registered consoles. The VT code expects that braille_write() succeeds. It does not replay the message when it can't acquire the ownership. As a result, braille_write(): + must try harder to get the ownership. + has to be synchronized only against non-printk serial console which depend nbcon_device_try_acquire() using NBCON_PRIO_NORMAL. Let's look at it from another side and try to simulate the original locking using the NBCON API: 1. Take con->device_lock(), aka the port->lock in the legacy serial console driver. 2. Acquire nbcon context to provide some synchronization for a panic() context. Use NBCON_PRIO_NORMAL because it contends only with nbcon_device_try_acquire() users. Do it in a busy loop. It should always succeed when con->device_lock() succeeded because all other users do the same. The only exception is when the context get acquired by a CPU handling panic. 3. In panic, disable interrupts and try to acquire the nbcon context. Use NBCON_PRIO_PANIC. And try even an unsafe takeover because otherwise the Braille console won't see the text shown during panic(). It is similar to the oops_in_progress/trylock handling in the legacy serial console driver. Finally, avoid the newline prepending logic in the existing serial console drivers when they are used as a Braille console. As explained above, the Braille console shows the last modified line on the terminal (VT). braille_write() is called when single characters are added. Most messages are not ended by newline. Anyway, the VT code does not have logic to reply partially printed messages.

2026-10-01can: fix unique skb identifier regression under RPSOliver Hartkopp
Commit d4fb6514ff8e ("can: use skb hash instead of private variable in headroom") moved the per-skb unique identifier used for raw_rcv() duplicate detection into skb->hash. With RPS enabled, get_rps_cpu() calls skb_get_hash() before the frame reaches the CAN subsystem. Since CAN skbs have no L3/L4 headers, the flow dissector assigns every CAN frame the same non-zero software hash. can_set_skb_uid() only generated a new identifier when skb->hash was 0, so it kept this constant hash. When the SLAB allocator later reused the same skb address, raw_rcv() mistook the next legitimate frame for a duplicate and dropped it. Fix this by storing the CAN UID in the CAN skb extension (struct can_skb_ext::can_skb_uid) instead of skb->hash, decoupling it from any hash the network stack may compute. can_set_skb_uid() keeps its "assign only if unset" behaviour, which preserves UIDs set before transmission (e.g. by isotp to identify echo frames) across the local loopback path. Frames whose extension is shared with another clone (e.g. via tc mirred or netem duplicate) are given a private extension copy before the UID is assigned, so that independently received skb clones from real CAN interfaces (can_skb_uid = 0) don't end up with the same UID. The limitation that tc mirred/netem skb duplicates might be dropped in raw_rcv for looped back isotp echo frame skbs is accepted. There is no valid use-case for tc mirred or netem together with isotp which is not capable to operate on different CAN interfaces simultaneously. For routing and modifying CAN frames together with isotp use can-gw. can-gw and vxcan additionally clear the UID of forwarded/duplicated frames so each newly routed frame gets its own unique identifier.

2026-10-01unshare: don't drop active namespace references that were never takenChristian Brauner
Active references on the namespaces of an nsproxy are taken when the nsproxy is installed into a task in switch_task_namespaces() and copy_namespaces() and dropped again by put_nsproxy() through deactivate_nsproxy(). But ksys_unshare() calls put_nsproxy() on an nsproxy that was never installed when set_cred_ucounts() fails. The new namespaces of that nsproxy go from zero to minus one and the namespaces shared with the caller lose a reference that belongs to the nsproxy the caller keeps using: WARNING: kernel/nscommon.c:171 at __ns_ref_active_put+0x1cd/0x230 nsproxy_ns_active_put deactivate_nsproxy ksys_unshare Afterwards the namespaces the caller lives in aren't listed by listns() anymore. set_cred_ucounts() only fails when alloc_ucounts() can't allocate and it only allocates when the real uid of the caller differs from its effective uid. Commit cefd55bd2159 ("nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces()") separated the two cases on purpose. nsproxy_free() frees an nsproxy that was prepared but never installed and that's what a failed setns() uses in put_nsset(). Export it and use it for a failed unshare() as well.

2026-10-01perf: Replace perf_event_header__init_id with full header initIan Rogers
perf_iterate_sb() invokes its callback for each matching perf_event on the CPU and task context, passing a shared caller-allocated event structure. perf_event_header__init_id() mutated header->size in place by adding event->id_header_size, requiring sideband output callbacks to save and restore header fields across iterations. Three sideband callbacks failed to save and restore header.size around perf_event_header__init_id(): - perf_event_ksymbol_output() - perf_event_bpf_output() - perf_event_text_poke_output() When multiple events with attr.ksymbol, attr.bpf_event, or attr.text_poke and sample_id_all are active on the same CPU, each subsequent event receives a record whose header.size is inflated by all preceding events' id_header_size values while only a single id_sample is written, leaving uninitialized ring-buffer bytes at the end of the record and causing userspace perf to fail with -EFAULT ("Bad address") when parsing the sample_id trailer. Similarly, perf_event_mmap_output() set PERF_RECORD_MISC_MMAP_BUILD_ID in mmap_event->event_id.header.misc when event->attr.build_id was enabled, but only saved and restored header.size and header.type. If an event with attr.build_id was followed by an event with attr.mmap2 and !attr.build_id, the second event received PERF_RECORD_MISC_MMAP_BUILD_ID in header.misc while its payload contained maj/min/ino/ino_generation instead of a build ID. Rather than splitting header initialization between callers and output callbacks and saving/restoring mutated header fields, replace perf_event_header__init_id() with perf_event_header__init(), which initializes header->type, header->misc, and header->size alongside the sample_id fields on each invocation.

2026-10-01tty: fix saved termios reset raceJohan Hovold
Resetting saved termios state on device registration is needed where a minor number can be reused for an entirely different device and where the old settings may prevent the port from even being opened (e.g. when CLOCAL is not set). Not all TTY drivers guarantee that the minor number is no longer in use when registering devices however, something which can lead to a use-after-free when closing a TTY (and saving its termios) races with re-registration. Add a new TTY_DRIVER_RESET_SAVED_TERMIOS flag to request that any saved termios state is reset on registration and only set it for drivers that make sure that the minor number is no longer in use.

2026-09-30netfs: clear post-EOF pagecache when extending a file via writePaulo Alcantara
Fix netfs to erase the contents of a hole created after the EOF by an ordinary write if dirty data has been previously left there by writes through an mmapped region. Neither the buffered nor the unbuffered/DIO write path clears that stale pagecache. Zero the tail of the folio straddling the EOF before an extending write. That is the only folio that can hold data written past the EOF through an mmap, as pages wholly beyond the EOF can't be faulted in. The folio is zeroed rather than dropped so a concurrent extending write can't lose data. Both write paths downgrade the i_rwsem to shared, so extending writes can run concurrently and the i_size read by the caller may be stale by the time the folio is locked. Re-read i_size under the folio lock and clamp the zeroed range up to it, so a racing write that already put data into the folio isn't clobbered. Wait for any writeback on the folio to finish before zeroing it so that the pagecache isn't modified while it may still be read by the transport during transmission. Honour IOCB_NOWAIT by returning -EAGAIN rather than blocking on the folio lock, on writeback, or in folio_mkclean()'s rmap walk when the folio is mapped. truncate_pagecache() can't be used here: it must be called with the i_rwsem held exclusively, but these write paths only hold it shared, and it would block unconditionally, breaking IOCB_NOWAIT. Callers that hold i_rwsem exclusively for the whole resize (truncate, setattr, fallocate, clone) exclude any genuine concurrent buffered writer, so staleness can instead be decided from the folio's dirty state, as pagecache_isize_extended() already does for filesystems that serialise writes against truncate/setattr via a single i_rwsem. Export netfs_clear_stale_post_isize() helper to handle such case. The helper is required by the CIFS client to fix generic/363.

2026-09-30netfilter: flowtable: restore ieee80211 forward pathPablo Neira Ayuso
Before commit 871df5007eda ("netfilter: flowtable: bail out if forward path cannot be discovered"), there was a fallback to set up a forward path in case .ndo_fill_forward_path fails or DEV_PATH_MTK_WDMA was used. Such fallback was used by commit d787a3e38f01 ("mac80211: add support for .ndo_fill_forward_path"). One possibility is to handle DEV_PATH_MTK_WDMA from the flowtable forward path discovery. However, this is only used internally by drivers to retrieve mtk_wdma information to set up hardware offload. Felix decided to use the .fill_forward_path interface for this purpose due to the lack of a better interface at that time. Add a new DEV_PATH_IEEE80211 path which is offered if the new ieee80211 flag is set on in the struct net_device_path_ctx to restore the flowtable with a ieee80211 netdevice. Handle this new DEV_PATH_IEEE80211 path just like DEV_PATH_ETHERNET and DEV_PATH_DSA, ie. this is the last netdevice in the stack. This new ieee80211 flag is implicitly unset for mtk_ppe and airoha which call dev_fill_forward_path() to retrieve a DEV_PATH_MTK_WDMA path.

2026-09-29net: cap skb->queue_mapping when the tx queue is pickedJamal Hadi Salim
skbedit can set skb->queue_mapping and raise the per-CPU skip_txqueue flag so __dev_queue_xmit() honours the mapping. __dev_queue_xmit() cleared the flag before sch_handle_egress() and only read it afterwards, so the flag was not confined to the xmit that set it: a nested xmit (mirred redirect or mirror, or a drop after skbedit) could set the flag and the outer xmit would consume it for an skb that never went through skbedit. A forwarded packet still carries the ingress NIC's rx_queue + 1 in skb->queue_mapping, so the outer device then indexes its tx queue state with that stale value. Taprio's child array q->qdiscs[] is sized to the device's queue count, so taprio_enqueue() indexes past its allocation and dereferences the result as a struct Qdisc *. We (ab)use the skb->nf_skip_egress which means "skip netfilter egress for this packet" to tag to "am I in tc egress?". Despite the overload I dont see it as a conflict since the marker is set only around the single sch_handle_egress() call and ingress path is guarded by tc_at_ingress. I will send a followup(net-next) patch once this hits net-next to rename the skb->nf_skip_egress bit/flag to skb->skip_egress Arm the flag only from the egress classifier that can use it: raise skip_txqueue from tcf_skbedit_act() only when it runs inside sch_handle_egress(), thanks to skb->nf_skip_egress. An egress qdisc classifier runs in q->enqueue(), after the tx queue has been picked, so a mapping it sets cannot affect the current packet; arming the flag there only pollutes it for a later xmit. Then own the flag for the xmit frame the egress hook runs in: save the incoming value and clear it just before sch_handle_egress(), and restore it after the hook - on the consumed (drop) path, or, in the same call that reads it, on the surviving path. The save and the restores stay inside the egress_needed_key static branch, so a packet pays for them only when egress hooks are active (2f1e85b1aee4). Store the value netdev_cap_txqueue() selected back into skb->queue_mapping in netdev_tx_queue_mapping(), as netdev_core_pick_tx() already does, so the skip_txqueue path never hands a later reader on the xmit path a mapping the device cannot serve. A store made still later in the same frame, by a tc BPF program attached to a transmit qdisc, is outside this path and is not re-capped; a separate followup will resolve that path. netdev_xmit_skip_txqueue() returns the previous flag value so the save-and-clear is one call, and a no-op stub is provided when CONFIG_NET_EGRESS is disabled. skb->nf_skip_egress is compiled under CONFIG_NET_EGRESS rather than CONFIG_NETFILTER_SKIP_EGRESS, so skb_at_tc_egress() is valid whenever the egress path is built. A local user in a network namespace can redirect a packet from a device with more TX queues to one with fewer after setting a mapping valid only on the larger device. That reaches these reads and, under KASAN, faults with "slab-out-of-bounds in taprio_enqueue". Conditions to recreate the bug: the report's own trigger is a local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN in a network namespace, so no eBPF program is needed. With CONFIG_NET_SCH_TAPRIO=y, CONFIG_NET_ACT_SKBEDIT=y, CONFIG_NET_ACT_MIRRED=y, CONFIG_NET_CLS_MATCHALL=y, CONFIG_NET_SCH_PRIO=y and KASAN enabled, create qa (3 queues), qb (2 queues) and qc (1 queue) as dummy devices; put a taprio root on qb (num_tc 1, queues 2@0) and clsact on all three; then add an egress matchall filter on every device. On qa: "action skbedit queue_mapping 2 pipe action mirred egress redirect dev qb". On qb: "action mirred egress mirror dev qc". On qc: "action skbedit queue_mapping 0 pipe". Send one packet out qa. qc's skbedit sets the flag while qb's outer xmit is in flight; without the fix qb consumes it and reads its two-entry taprio child array with the forwarded packet's stale mapping. A qc whose skbedit is instead installed in a transmit-qdisc classifier (a matchall filter on the qc root qdisc) reaches the same code path the same way without the fix. Testing: on a KASAN build with panic_on_warn=1 the unfixed kernel panics with "BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in taprio_enqueue", a read 0 bytes past a 16-byte taprio_init() allocation, for the clsact-setter and the transmit-qdisc-classifier reproducers and for a clsact skbedit-then-tc-BPF store; the fixed kernel runs all three with no report, and the BPF store variant additionally shows the expected "selects TX queue" clamp notice from the write-back.

2026-09-29hrtimer: Use the mask to clear TIF_HRTIMER_REARM from the exit workKarl Mehltretter
hrtimer_rearm_deferred_user_irq() removes the rearm bit from the local copy of the TIF work with: *tif_work &= ~TIF_HRTIMER_REARM; TIF_HRTIMER_REARM is the bit number (12), not the mask. That clears TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (bit 2) and TIF_MEMDIE (bit 3) from the copy and leaves bit 12 set. So the function never returns true, and the copy handed to exit_to_user_mode_loop() lacks TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. If that was the only work for the loop, the task returns to user space with the task work still pending. hrtimer_interrupt() sets TIF_HRTIMER_REARM every time, so the next tick repeats that. Task work queued with TWA_SIGNAL from a hrtimer callback stays pending until the task does a syscall, takes an interrupt without deferred rearm or has to reschedule. A task which polls the io_uring completion ring in user space sees a timeout completion after 30ms (median) instead of 70us. 2 CPU QEMU guest, HZ=1000. Use the mask.

2026-09-29cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix max_freq fallback in cpufreq_update_pressure()Rafael J. Wysocki
After commit d2d5c129d07e ("cpufreq: Make cpufreq_update_pressure() fall back to cpuinfo.max_freq"), cpufreq pressure appears in the CPU load balancer unexpectedly in some cases in which it was not present before, leading to confusion and uncertainty. Clearly, the scheduler assumes that cpufreq pressure will not be set unless the capacity reference frequency of the CPU is known, and the commit mentioned above violates that assumption. However, in some cases the capacity reference frequency of the CPU is in fact known even though arch_scale_freq_ref() returns 0 and in those cases it should be possible to set cpufreq pressure as appropriate. For this purpose, introduce a new cpufreq driver callback returning the CPU capacity reference frequency, .scale_freq_ref(), and make cpufreq_update_pressure() invoke it, if present, instead of falling back to cpuinfo.max_freq unconditionally. Add that callback to the intel_pstate driver and make it return 0 unless the scale-invariant capacity of the given CPU has been explicitly set, in which cases its reference frequency is always cpuinfo.max_freq.

2026-09-29bpf: Skip detached progs in trampoline images that are still in useFlorent Revest (Anthropic)
bpf_tramp_image_put() makes sure a trampoline image is not freed while a task may still be running in it, but nothing similar is done for the progs called by that image. Detach drops the last prog reference right away and the prog is freed after grace periods, on the basis that a task still in the traced function skips the fexit progs once the nop at ip_after_call is patched to a jump. That leaves out a task sleeping in a sleepable prog that runs before the detached one, which no grace period waits for: CPU 0 CPU 1 in image I, sleeping in prog S detach P from I's trampoline -> new image, bpf_tramp_image_put(I) bpf_prog_put(P), last ref grace periods, P freed back from S __bpf_prog_enter(P) call P->bpf_func If S and P are fexit progs the task is already past the patched jump, and fentry only images don't have one. On x86 this is an int3 in poisoned bpf_prog_pack memory: Oops: int3: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI CPU: 18 UID: 0 PID: 94573 Comm: x169 Not tainted 6.18.44 #1 PREEMPT(lazy) RIP: 0010:0xffffffffc0601d8d Call Trace: <TASK> ? bpf_trampoline_6442515411+0x1a4/0x21b bpf_lsm_bprm_committed_creds+0x5/0x10 security_bprm_committed_creds+0x5f/0x70 begin_new_exec+0x2d6/0x410 ... We hit this in production when progs attached through trampolines got detached while their hooks were busy, and it was independently found with a fuzzer and KASAN. Have the JITs emit a patchable nop in front of each prog call sequence and record it in the image. When a prog is detached, patch its nop to a jump over the call sequence. Progs that stay attached keep running for the tasks that are in the image, and ip_after_call isn't needed anymore. The task can be in any image that isn't freed yet, not only in the current one. It sleeps in image I1 that calls S, P and Q, then P is detached and the trampoline moves to image I2, then Q is detached and its call is still in I1. So the trampoline keeps a list of its images until they are freed, and detaching a prog patches its nop in all of them. Images hold a reference on the trampoline for that long. On riscv and loongarch a jump of any range takes several instructions, and a task preempted in the middle of them could resume into half of the new sequence. The nop is a single instruction there, patched to a near branch through arch_bpf_trampoline_skip(). With the extra nops, BPF_MAX_TRAMP_LINKS progs no longer fit in a page on x86 and arm64 (and already didn't on powerpc), so lower the limit there like s390 does.

2026-09-29bpf: Wait for an RCU tasks grace period before freeing trampoline progsFlorent Revest (Anthropic)
When a prog is detached from a trampoline, it is freed after an RCU grace period, or an RCU tasks trace one if it is sleepable. This covers the tasks that are running the prog, since the prog's enter helper takes the matching read lock before the prog is called. On a preemptible kernel, it doesn't cover a task that was preempted in the trampoline just before the enter helper. That task holds no lock yet, and it calls the prog after it was freed: BUG: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in __bpf_prog_enter_recur+0x3a5/0x3f0 Read of size 8 at addr ffffc90000055040 by task candidate/110 CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 110 Comm: candidate Not tainted 7.3.0-rc2-00014-g15071f2a1263-dirty #2 PREEMPT(full) Call Trace: <TASK> __bpf_prog_enter_recur+0x3a5/0x3f0 bpf_trampoline_6442509193+0x37/0xf1 __x64_sys_futex+0x9/0x410 do_syscall_64+0xb0/0x530 ... Wait for an RCU tasks grace period before the existing one when freeing a prog that was linked to a trampoline. An RCU tasks grace period only ends once the tasks that were preempted have run again, and bpf_tramp_image_put() already relies on it to free the image. It doesn't wait for tasks that sleep in the trampoline, the next commit takes care of those. Only progs that were linked to a trampoline can be called this way, so bpf_trampoline_add_prog() marks them and other progs are still freed as before.

2026-09-26namespace: don't inherit MNT_UMOUNT in clone_mnt()Christian Brauner
MNT_UMOUNT gets raised on a mount that umount_tree() or umount_one() has taken out of its namespace. It's never cleared. __detach_mounts() unhooks a mount that carries it instead of unmounting it. disconnect_mount() lets an unmounted child stay attached only if its parent carries it. propagate_umount() takes it as the sign that a mount is going to be unmounted when it decides what else can be unmounted, where a chain of locked mounts ends and where a for reparenting an overmount. clone_mnt() copies the flags of the source and only masks MNT_INTERNAL_FLAGS which doesn't include MNT_UMOUNT. A mount that was lazily unmounted but is kept alive by a file descriptor can still be copied when its root is an nsfs or pidfs file because may_copy_tree() accepts those before checking whether the source is mounted at all: mount --bind /proc/self/ns/net /tmp/x exec 3< /tmp/x umount -l /tmp/x mount --bind /proc/self/fd/3 /tmp/y The mount on /tmp/y is attached to the caller's namespace with MNT_UMOUNT already set and every copy of it inherits the flag again. That causes a number of bugs: - Unlink its mountpoint from a mount namespace where it isn't one. __detach_mounts() takes it for a mount that was unmounted earlier, unhooks it from its parent and drops the reference the namespace holds on it. It stays in the namespace with one reference too few and as its own parent, so it can't be unmounted through the file descriptor anymore and the namespace never finds it again. When the namespace goes away it's leaked and points to a freed struct mnt_namespace that may_change_propagation() and anon_ns_root() read on the next propagation change or mount_setattr() through the file descriptor. - Make it shared and unmount a peer. trace_transfers() follows the flag from the peer into it and strips it from its peer group. - Let a propagated umount reach it. gather_candidates() marks it with T_UMOUNT_CANDIDATE but never puts it on the candidate list, so the mark is never cleared and every later propagated umount skips it. If it's the parent of a locked mount handle_locked() takes it as the cutoff and commits the locked child that should have stayed and disconnect_mount() leaves that child attached to it, unmounted under a mounted parent, which is what disconnect_mount() exists to prevent. When the namespace goes away umount_tree() visits the child a second time. And once __detach_mounts() has made it its own parent reparent() never finds the end of the chain of unmounted parents. A clone is a new mount that has never been unmounted. Add MNT_UMOUNT to MNT_INTERNAL_FLAGS so clone_mnt() never copies it. And warn when umount_tree() reaches a mount that already has it set.

2026-09-26Revert "KVM: Check for duplicate vcpu_id as early as possible"Sean Christopherson
Now that KVM uses kvm_get_vcpu_by_id() to check for an existing vCPU ID before doing any meaningful work, which was made possible by holding kvm->lock for the entirety of vCPU creation, revert the now-redundant "early" vCPU ID tracking. The claims about the impact of kvm->vcpu_ids on the memory footprint were a wee bit wrong: the worst case scenario isn't 256 bytes per VM, it's 256 "unsigned longs" per VM, i.e. 2048 bytes per VM. Increasing the size of "struct kvm" by 2048 nearly doubled the total size on many architectures, and tripped x86's KVM_SANITY_CHECK_VM_STRUCT_SIZE, which was added to detect this *exact* scenario, where a single change significantly increased the size of "struct kvm". I.e. attempting to build KVM with CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=n fails on x86 (the build failures got missed because all build bots apparently test only CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y kernels, and maintainers' test flows were similarly lacking). This reverts commit 97d65b544f48b2ee49f6aea32145e3e7969955dc.

2026-09-25netfs: Fix missing alloc tagging of direct mempool allocationsHao Ge
Commit 1d78d56c43ef ("netfs: Fix folio_queue ENOMEM in writeback by adding a mempool") added a mempool for the folio_queues and made the request, subrequest and folio_queue allocations distinguish between writeback and everything else. Writeback is part of memory reclaim and must not fail due to ENOMEM, so it allocates under GFP_NOFS through mempool_alloc(), which may dip into the pool's reserve and, if that runs empty, wait for elements to be returned. The GFP_KERNEL paths, which can return -ENOMEM to their callers, invoke the pool's ->alloc() callback directly instead. The direct call, however, skips the alloc_hooks() wrapper that the mempool_alloc() macro provides. The pool callbacks, mempool_alloc_slab() and mempool_kmalloc(), call kmem_cache_alloc_noprof() and kmalloc_noprof() and rely on current->alloc_tag having been set by the caller. With CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=y this leads to current->alloc_tag not set WARNING: ./include/linux/alloc_tag.h:161 at __alloc_tagging_slab_alloc_hook alloc_tag was not set WARNING: ./include/linux/alloc_tag.h:166 at __alloc_tagging_slab_free_hook at allocation and free time respectively, as reported when reading files on a CIFS mount. The allocations are also missing from /proc/allocinfo. Wrap the direct ->alloc() invocations in alloc_hooks() with a new mempool_alloc_noreserve() helper in include/linux/mempool.h, next to the other alloc_hooks()-wrapped macros such as mempool_alloc(). The GFP_KERNEL paths keep their failable allocation semantics, they just get tagged now.

2026-09-23soc: qcom: geni-se: Correct QUP Core ICC vote constantsViken Dadhaniya
The GENI_TO_CORE ("qup-core") ICC vote selects the QUP Core 2X clock rate. The CORE_2X_*_MHZ constants are expressed in Bps, but their values are several orders of magnitude too small. For example, the 50 MHz threshold is represented by 2500 rather than 25000000 Bps. As a result, clients using these constants can severely under-vote the QUP Core clock. Correct the constants to their intended Bps thresholds so that the ICC provider selects the corresponding QUP Core 2X clock rate. Drop the unused definitions.

2026-09-23tty: port: fix tty_port_tty_vhangup() raceJohan Hovold
Drivers rely on tty_port_tty_vhangup() to synchronously hang up their ports before tearing down resources as part of deregistration (e.g. on physical disconnect). If tty_port_tty_vhangup() races with another hangup it may however return before the port has been shut down. This is in turn can lead to use-after-free and NULL-pointer dereferences in racing ioctls (including a synchronous hangup) and in processing of racing asynchronous hangups (carrier loss). Add the missing serialisation to tty_port_tty_vhangup() and tty_port_hangup() so that the former does not return until the port has been shut down also when there is a racing hangup. Note that serial core does not use tty_port_hangup(), but it already holds the port mutex when clearing port->tty and shutting down the port in uart_hangup().

2026-09-23tty: abort break signalling on hangupJohan Hovold
The break ioctls can race with hangup and end up calling into a tty driver for a device that is already gone or powered down. Drivers must handle this race, but TCSBRK and TCSBRKP should still be aborted to avoid calling back into the driver after a user-controlled timeout (possibly even after the tty has been reopened). Note that drivers should disable any break state on shutdown so just return on hangup (calling break_ctl() again is racy and will most likely fail for drivers handling the race).
