12 daysnet: skbuff: don't copy alloc_cpu in skb header copiesCarolina Jubran
Commit 68822bdf76f1 ("net: generalize skb freeing deferral to per-cpu lists") added alloc_cpu to struct sk_buff and placed it in the headers group copied by __copy_skb_header(). This is wrong for newly allocated skbs. For example, skb_segment() allocates a new skb and records the current CPU in alloc_cpu, but __copy_skb_header() overwrites it with the value from the original skb. If the original skb was allocated on another CPU, the segment may later be treated as remotely allocated and unnecessarily deferred there when it is freed. Move alloc_cpu out of the headers group so it is preserved across header copies. Copy it explicitly in skb_clone(), which allocates the skb object directly instead of going through __alloc_skb(). This was discovered while investigating a throughput regression with software IPsec. The load used 512 IPsec tunnels carrying traffic over VXLAN, with 512 parallel iperf3 flows and an MTU of 4500.

12 daysbpf: Add unwind_goto and unwind_exit insnsAlexei Starovoitov
Rust Drop, C++ destructors and __attribute__((cleanup)) in C have to run when a panic or an exception passes through a frame. v1 [1] did it with a flag in r3 and 'if r3 != 0 goto pad' after the call. Three bugs that the bots found there had the same cause: r3 is an ordinary register, and JITs guessed the meaning from the shape of the code. Kumar suggested new insns instead [2]: unwind_goto pad BPF_JMP | BPF_JCOND, src_reg = BPF_UNWIND_GOTO unwind_exit BPF_JMP | BPF_EXIT, src_reg = BPF_UNWIND_EXIT 'call foo; unwind_goto pad' goes to the pad when foo left with unwind_exit and falls through when it left with exit. No register says which one it was. In everything else unwind_exit is exit. llvm lowers unwinding to them [3]: ret exit invoke foo unwind pad call foo; unwind_goto pad resume r0 = 0; unwind_exit call _Unwind_RaiseException r0 = 0; unwind_exit invoke _Unwind_RaiseException goto pad In a function that returns 16 bytes it's 'r0 = 0; r2 = 0; unwind_exit'. Landing pads are ordinary blocks, so the verifier checks them like any other code. A pad that forgets to drop a lock or a reference is a leak on that path. There are no tables, no stack walk, no kfuncs, no BTF and nothing to do for libbpf and other loaders. In the verifier: - unwind_goto has to follow a call or callx of a subprog and cannot be a jump target. For cfg, liveness and the rest it's one more conditional jump, like may_goto. - How the callee left is one bit of the verifier state. It lives from the exit of the callee to the next insn. states_equal() looks at it, since the registers can be the same either way. - unwind_exit is rejected when unwind_goto doesn't follow the call. - A global subprog that has unwind_exit can leave either way. Both are explored after the call, like it's done for might_throw. - A sync callback cannot unwind. The helper that calls it doesn't expect that: bpf_loop() would go on. - unwind_exit of the main prog is exit, unless it's an extension. So it is in async and exception callbacks. The kernel calls them, and there is no frame to unwind to. - An extension leaves either way, like the subprog that it replaced. freplace is a jump, so the extension returns to the caller of the subprog. An extension that has unwind_exit can replace only a subprog that has it too. Otherwise there is no unwind_goto after the calls. - Of tracing progs only fentry can attach to a subprog or an extension that has unwind_exit. It would return to the trampoline that called it. - unwind_exit changes its return address, so the cpu mispredicts the return and runs what follows unwind_goto speculatively. Without CAP_PERFMON the verifier looks at that path too. - unwind_goto goes away together with a pad that turned out to be dead code. It stays when what follows it is dead code. The cpu predicts that the callee returns there, so 'goto pc-1' takes the place of the dead code. Otherwise its removal would move other code there. JITs don't emit a branch: unwind_goto: extable[n++] = { ret_addr - 1 -> pad } unwind_exit: my_ret_addr = bpf_unwind_target(my_ret_addr) epilogue So exit and the normal path after the call cost nothing. Every frame fixes only its own return address. There is no stack walk. The lookup is what the page fault handler does for bpf progs. The interpreter cannot do that, so the prog has to be JITed, and JITs opt in with bpf_jit_supports_unwind(). x86-64 and arm64 are in the next patches. BPF_JCOND is the same opcode as BPF_CALL_ARGS of the interpreter, and BPF_UNWIND_GOTO is the same number as BPF_PSEUDO_CALL. may_goto is gone by the time a prog is dumped, unwind_goto is not. bpf_insn_prepare_dump() tells them apart: a prog with unwind_goto is always JITed. Compared to v1 there is no BTF decl_tag and no 'r3 = 0' before every exit. Tail call and ld_abs are fine in a subprog that can unwind, since they leave it like exit does. unwind_exit doesn't set r0. An implicit definition of r0 would need special cases in backtracking, in liveness and in the check of the return value of the main prog. A plain 'r0 = 0' in front of it needs none. Rust rust-bpf [4] builds with that llvm as it is. The programs are built with -C panic=unwind. The panic handler prints the message and calls _Unwind_RaiseException(). exc_cleanup.rs panics three frames deep, with preemption disabled in one frame and rcu_read_lock held in another. All Drop impls run and the prog returns 0. scx_simple.rs is 2195 insns with 48 unwind_goto, 20 of them after callx, and 16 unwind_exit. With r3 it was 2216 insns. scx_cosmos.rs is 3694 insns with 68 and 18. It was 3716. C++ Exceptions work too. This compiles, loads and runs: struct rcu_guard { rcu_guard() { bpf_rcu_read_lock(); } ~rcu_guard() { bpf_rcu_read_unlock(); } }; static __noinline int inner(int len) { rcu_guard guard; if (len > 100) throw 1; return len; } SEC("tc") int prog(struct __sk_buff *skb) { try { return inner(skb->len); } catch (...) { return 42; } } It returns 64 for a packet of 64 bytes and 42 for a packet of 200 bytes. The destructor runs in both cases, otherwise the verifier would reject the prog. 'throw' is a jump to the pad with the destructor. 'catch' is unwind_goto: inner: w6 = w1 call bpf_rcu_read_lock if w6 s< 101 goto ret r1 = exc_obj ll *(u32 *)(r1 + 0) = 1 goto pad ret: call bpf_rcu_read_unlock w0 = w6 exit pad: call bpf_rcu_read_unlock r0 = 0 unwind_exit prog: w6 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 0) w1 = w6 call inner unwind_goto catch out: w0 = w6 exit catch: w6 = 42 goto out It needs -fexceptions -funwind-tables and four one line __cxa_*() functions, where __cxa_throw() calls _Unwind_RaiseException(). Every pad is entered whatever was thrown, so llvm takes catch (...) only. It's a selftest in patch 5.

12 daysnetdev: Hide the netdev_priv() origin from GCC in netdev_from_priv()Kees Cook
GCC 15.1 and later can compute an object size of 0 for a pointer that container_of() derives from a pointer into a __counted_by flexible array member[1]; Clang gets it right. netdev_from_priv() does this with struct net_device's "priv" array, so when GCC can see that its argument came from netdev_priv(), FORTIFY_SOURCE sees a zero-sized net_device. Since commit 9027497a25e3c ("team: use netdev_from_priv()"), adding a port of another type to a team device can then fail the memcpy() to "dev->broadcast" in team_setup_by_port(), which GCC sees through after inlining team_port_add() into team_add_slave(): memcpy: detected buffer overflow: 4 byte write of buffer size 0 ... kernel BUG at lib/string_helpers.c:1044! ... Call Trace: <TASK> team_add_slave.cold+0x88/0x201 do_set_master+0x11c/0x180 do_setlink.isra.0+0x3a4/0x1410 Whether GCC inlines that far depends on the architecture and the configuration. It does on ppc64le, where this was reported, and on x86_64 with defconfig plus hardening.config or with Debian's configuration, but not with allmodconfig. Hide where "priv" came from with OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR(), so GCC sees a net_device of unknown size whose members have their declared sizes. (An "unknown" size is considered uncheckable by FORTIFY.) FORTIFY still bounds writes to members; only the whole-object size becomes unknown, as it already is for any net_device pointer GCC can't trace to its allocation. In an extracted PoC, the __builtin_dynamic_object_size() of "dev->broadcast" for the two types FORTIFY sees, before and after this patch: GCC 16.2.0 Clang 22 and 24 before after plain pointer, whole object unknown unknown 44 container_of(), whole object 0 unknown 44 container_of(), member 0 32 32 In addition to getting the bogus "0" fixed in GCC, I'll be following up to solve the whole-object visiblity disparity as well. Build tested with GCC 16.2.0: ARCH=x86_64 defconfig with hardening.config, CONFIG_NET_TEAM=y, and CONFIG_NET_IPGRE=y; ARCH=arm64 defconfig with hardening.config, CONFIG_NET_TEAM=y, CONFIG_PPP=y, and CONFIG_NET_AIROHA=m; and drivers/net/team/, drivers/net/ppp/, and drivers/net/ethernet/airoha/ in ARCH=x86_64 allmodconfig. Under QEMU, the x86_64 kernel hits the BUG above when adding the GRE fallback device "gre0" as a port of a new team device without this patch, and adds it with the patch.

12 daysnet: wwan: core: propagate modem control signals to port driversPeter Hunt
The WWAN character device emulates the TTY modem-control ioctls (TIOCMGET/TIOCMSET/TIOCMBIC/TIOCMBIS) for AT and QCDM ports, but the result is only stored in port->at_data.mdmbits and never reaches the port driver. A driver therefore cannot act on the host raising or dropping DTR/RTS, even though some modems depend on it (e.g. they withhold unsolicited AT result codes until the host asserts DTR). Add an optional ->dtr_rts(port, mdmbits) operation to struct wwan_port_ops. Drivers that implement it receive the TIOCM output bitmask so they can assert or de-assert DTR and RTS independently. As in tty_tiocmset(), the wwan core keeps only the output bits (DTR, RTS, OUT1, OUT2, LOOP) of the TIOCMSET/TIOCMBIS/TIOCMBIC value in port->at_data.mdmbits, and calls ->dtr_rts when DTR or RTS actually changes, gated on WWAN_PORT_AT to match the open/close raise/drop behaviour. Also raise DTR/RTS in wwan_port_op_start on first open of an AT port when the driver implements ->dtr_rts, and drop them in wwan_port_op_stop on last close if HUPCL is set in the port's termios. This follows TTY open/close semantics, although the termios baud rate is not used, and means individual drivers do not need to implement this themselves. As on a TTY, HUPCL defaults to on for AT ports, and userspace can clear it with TCSETS to keep DTR asserted across close, for example so that closing the port does not end a call on a modem set to AT&D1/AT&D2. TCSETS and TCSETS2 now only commit the new termios when the copy from userspace succeeds, so a faulting call cannot silently clear HUPCL. ->dtr_rts must be called under ops_lock, which serialises port ops and protects against port removal (removal clears port->ops under it). So that updates to the TIOCM state and the ->dtr_rts calls are serialised together, the termios/TIOCM state now also lives under ops_lock and the separate data_lock is removed. The AT/QCDM ioctl handler only holds ops_lock while it reads or updates that state, never across a user-memory copy, and takes it interruptibly since a driver's blocking write holds it while it waits. Ioctls that do not touch that state, such as TCFLSH, TIOCEXCL and the FIONREAD fallback, do not take it. wwan_remove_port() also drops DTR/RTS before ->stop() when a port is removed while still open, regardless of HUPCL since the device is going away. The raise and drop paths go through two small helpers, which do the AT port and ->dtr_rts checks and pass the driver the resulting bitmask.

12 daysnet: rename skb_unshare() to skb_unclone_full()Nicolai Buchwitz
skb_unshare() only copies cloned skbs. A shared skb that is not a clone comes back unchanged, which the name doesn't suggest. The loopback selftest hooks got caught by this and hit BUG_ON(skb_shared()). Rename it to skb_unclone_full(). Like skb_unclone() it only acts on clones, but it copies the whole skb, not just the head.

12 dayskeys: make keyring indexes independent of kernel addressesKyle Zeng
KEYCTL_READ returns the serial numbers in a keyring in associative-array traversal order. The first word of the index is a public, deterministic hash of the type pointer, domain pointer and description. An unprivileged user can therefore insert keys with known descriptions, predict their order for each possible KASLR slide, and recover the kernel image address. On an x86-64 build with 16 MiB alignment, 45 user keys suffice to distinguish the candidate slides. Remove the addresses from the whole index, not just its first hash word. Assign each key type and domain a nonzero 64-bit ID and hash those IDs and the description with a once-initialized SipHash key. Use the full IDs in the later index chunks as well. Truncating or hashing the IDs there would lose the guarantee that distinct type/domain/description tuples have a differing index bit. Allocate IDs lazily since private key types need not be registered. Cache them in the index key so tree walks and copies of an existing index do not need to dereference a type descriptor that may have been unregistered. Keep the 32-bit chunk layout and diff_objects() bit offsets consistent, and retain the separate root slot for keyrings used by recursive search. The key comparison, permissions and userspace data format are unchanged; only the address-dependent in-memory ordering is replaced.

12 dayslandlock: Enforce capability restrictionsMickaël Salaün
Add Landlock enforcement for capability use via the LSM capable hook. This lets a sandboxed process restrict which Linux capabilities it can exercise, using LANDLOCK_PERMISSION_CAPABILITY_USE and per-capability rules. The check is a flat per-layer allowed-capabilities test, with no domain-ancestry bypass, no cross-namespace discriminant, and no dependency on the target user namespace. These categorical denials return -EPERM, like the namespace permission introduced by the previous commit, and they mirror its per-capability allowed and quiet masks, so LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_QUIET stays rejected for this rule type. Successful capability rules and denials are traced as the previous commit describes. Enforce only at capability exercise time rather than modifying the credential's capability sets. Modifying them would give capget(2) an accurate view of usable capabilities, but no LSM other than commoncap does so; Landlock follows that convention. A sandboxed process inside a user namespace therefore sees all capabilities via capget(2) but receives -EPERM when attempting to use one that is denied. An earlier design bypassed this hook for namespace management through a domain-ancestry comparison with the namespace creator's stored Landlock domain. That made a Landlock decision depend on kernel namespace state, and the ns != cred->user_ns heuristic did not accurately identify namespace-management operations. The flat, namespace-agnostic check instead enforces capability and namespace restrictions independently; creating a non-user namespace requires an allowed CAP_SYS_ADMIN even when combined with CLONE_NEWUSER in one unshare().

12 dayslandlock: Enforce namespace use restrictionsMickaël Salaün
Add Landlock enforcement for namespace use through the LSM namespace_init and namespace_install hooks. This lets a sandboxed process restrict which namespace types it can create, join, or acquire a file descriptor for, using LANDLOCK_PERMISSION_NAMESPACE_USE and per-type rules. Introduce the handled_permissions field in struct landlock_ruleset_attr: each permission gates every use of a kernel-defined category (CLONE_NEW* namespace types, CAP_* capabilities) with complete deny-by-default coverage, so unknown member values need no validation, being denied until a rule allows them. This UAPI extension advances the Landlock ABI from 11 to 12. There is no domain-ancestry bypass and no namespace-creator tracking, only a flat per-layer allowed-types bitmask: hook_namespace_init() covers creation through clone(2), unshare(2), open_tree(2) and fsmount(2), and hook_namespace_install() covers setns(2). Each permission hook maps its member mask explicitly in the shared permission walker, which warns and denies if a future caller omits that mapping. These categorical denials return -EPERM, matching Landlock's scope and mount-topology denials rather than its object-access -EACCES convention. struct permission_masks is forced to eight bytes with __packed and __aligned because it must eventually hold both the eight namespace types and all capabilities, and because m68k GCC otherwise packs its u64 bitfields at byte granularity, making the structure smaller than sizeof(u64). Carrying it grows struct layer_config from 4 to 16 bytes, so the largest 16-entry domain FAM grows from 64 to 256 bytes. The permissions selector keeps the rule attribute self-describing: - User space can mask it against handled_permissions, as it masks allowed_access against handled_access_fs, so a program built against newer headers still adds the rules an older kernel supports. - It tells apart two attributes that share the same three-u64 layout. Unknown member bits are ignored, so without it a mismatched rule type would apply a capability mask as namespace types. - It leaves room for a rule to carry several permissions, or for another rule type to key the same permission differently. The rule also carries a quiet_namespace_types bitmask that suppresses audit submission for denied members without granting them. A sandbox knowingly running a caller that probes a type it will never be granted would otherwise flood the audit log and drown the surprising denials that matter. Quiet is per-member rather than a coarse per-category ruleset bit, so a sandbox can silence CLONE_NEWNET while still auditing CLONE_NEWUTS; making it the complement of the allowed set would be broad, could not audit a member that is neither allowed nor explicitly quieted, and would auto-hide members added by future kernels. It is a per-rule bitmask rather than the LANDLOCK_ADD_RULE_QUIET flag and the ruleset quiet_access_* masks, which suit the unbounded rb-tree objects of filesystem and network rules, so that flag is rejected here. Only the youngest denying layer's quiet mask decides, so a parent cannot silence a denial made by a deeper layer. Trace the handled permission mask, every successful namespace rule, and namespace denials. Successful effective no-ops advance the version, and quiet denials remain trace-visible with logged=0. The denial event takes the blockers argument of the filesystem and network events and records the same blockers_type and blockers_access fields, so one filter expression spans the mask-bearing denial events. Handled and rule permission masks may contain permissions from multiple domains in one field, so their names are domain-qualified, such as namespace.use. A blocker is already interpreted in the domain supplied by the audit prefix or denial event, so it retains the bare action name use, matching existing access blockers such as read_file. User namespace creation does not require capabilities, so Landlock can restrict it directly. Non-user namespace types require CAP_SYS_ADMIN before the Landlock check is reached; when the capability permission added by the next commit is also handled, both must allow the operation.

Since requests are drained based on allocated requests, the drain stays active after the drain request has posted its CQE, until it is freed and a new request finds the defer list empty. A drain request run by io-wq is freed only after the worker drops its reference, so a request submitted after the drain completed can still be deferred behind it, and get issued much later than the application expects. A drain request dispatched from the defer list runs alone. Track it, and end the drain when its CQE is flushed and nothing else is deferred. Have io-wq complete drain requests through task_work, so that this happens under ->uring_lock before the CQE is visible. Linked drain requests keep waiting until the link is freed.

12 daysxsk: freeze deferred pool teardown without blocking unregisterJames Hilliard
Deferred pool destruction calls ndo_bpf() under RTNL. system_wq is not frozen during system sleep, so that callback can run after a device has suspended and gated its clocks. Use system_freezable_wq so running destruction finishes before device suspend and new work waits until process thaw. Keep assigned pools visible to NETDEV_UNREGISTER independently of the socket list. A released socket has already left that list, but its final pool put can queue destruction after workqueues freeze. A resume-time unregister would then wait for a device reference whose release cannot run until the resume completes. Track assigned pools per netdev with netdev operations locking and detach remaining pools after the notifier socket walk, including copy-mode pools. This also covers leased queues without scanning pools from unrelated devices or network namespaces. Remove the entry on assignment failure and normal teardown. The deferred worker still owns the pool and later observes the cleared device pointer, avoiding a second driver detach or put. The lifetime problem was identified by code inspection of the deferred release and system-sleep paths.

12 daysnet: skbuff: replace __skb_frag_ref() with symmetric skb_netmem_ref()Mina Almasry
Previously, __skb_frag_ref() and skb_frag_ref() unconditionally incremented the non-pp backing refcount via get_netmem(), while skb_frag_unref() decremented pp_ref_count whenever skb->pp_recycle was set. Ref-ing a page_pool fragment into a pp_recycle=1 SKB (or clearing pp_recycle=0 on an uncloned SKB while clones still held pp_recycle=1) leaked the backing non-pp refcount and underflowed pp_ref_count across IP-TFS, skb_split(), skb_shift(), and cloned unclone paths. Replace __skb_frag_ref() with skb_netmem_ref(netmem, recycle) as the exact counterpart to skb_netmem_unref(netmem, recycle): - Keep skb->pp_recycle intact in skb_release_data() so uncloning paths (pskb_expand_head() and pskb_carve_inside_{header,nonlinear}()) keep trading pp_ref_count references symmetrically across clones. - Propagate pp_recycle and call skb_frag_ref() on the destination SKB in __pskb_copy_fclone(), skb_zerocopy(), skb_split(), skb_shift(), and skb_segment(). - Linearize an output segment's existing frags in skb_segment() before attaching frags from a frag_list SKB with a different pp_recycle bit, since each output segment carries a single pp_recycle bit. - Use skb_frag_ref() in xfrm_iptfs, chcr_ktls, and cassini, and call get_netmem() directly in veth and tls_device_fallback where callers explicitly take a raw non-pp reference.

12 daysnet: skbuff: replace skb_page_unref() and __skb_frag_unref() with ↵Mina Almasry
skb_netmem_unref() Unreferencing a page_pool fragment with recycle=false decrements the non-pp backing refcount instead of pp_ref_count, underflowing the page refcount when the fragment was owned via page_pool (as on mlx4's RX error path). Having both skb_page_unref() and __skb_frag_unref(frag, recycle) made it easy for callers to pass hardcoded recycle=false on SKB-owned fragments. Replace skb_page_unref() and __skb_frag_unref() with skb_netmem_unref(netmem, recycle), which dispatches to napi_pp_put_page() when recycle is true and put_netmem() otherwise: - Use skb_frag_unref(skb, ...) on SKB-owned fragments in mlx4, sky2, tls_strp, and skb_shift() so unrefs always match skb->pp_recycle. - Use put_netmem() directly in tls_device's destroy_record(), which releases raw non-pp page references outside an SKB.

They share init_files which init_task pins forever so their exit_files() never drops the last reference, and their fput() keeps punting to a workqueue. The one place that could put a table from a kthread context, a failing copy_process(), can't hold the last reference while the source table is alive. On a 64 vCPU KVM guest tearing down 4096, 65536 and 1M descriptors scattered at random positions in the table: 4096 fds 65536 fds 1M fds exit 1045 -> 895 us 18.9 -> 14.9 ms 429 -> 306 ms execve, close-on-exec 1393 -> 1190 us 21.4 -> 16.9 ms 471 -> 325 ms close_range() 1179 -> 988 us 21.9 -> 17.4 ms 484 -> 337 ms So that is 16-21% or 40-150 ns per closed file, largest at 1M descriptors. With eight processes tearing down 65536 descriptors each at once it stays at 16-21% because the second pass over 16 MB of struct file is what gets expensive when CPUs compete for the cache. With 32 or 64 processes both kernels are bound by pushing millions of files through slab and rcu and the difference shrinks to 4-8%. Files whose own release dominates gain less, 13% for eventfds, 11% for pipes, 6% for AF_UNIX sockets. close(2) is untouched and will-it-scale is within 2%. The spufs coredump support is removed. It was the only reason do_coredump() unshared the descriptor table. gdb dropped Cell debugging in 9.1 and binutils in 2.34, the Cell blades are gone and nothing on the PlayStation 3 produces or reads these notes. With that unshare_files() goes away, exec installs its private table through the new switch_files_struct() and the coredump startup completion becomes a plain thread count waited on with the new wait_var_event_state(). Three fixes for the synchronous close are included. A failed fork released its files under scx_fork_rwsem and deadlocked against the bpf link's release. A session leader's exit released its tty before disassociate_ctty() ran and the foreground job lost its SIGHUP, so the tty is hung up before the files are closed now. And descriptor tables are walked from the highest descriptor down which restores the order the deferred puts had and keeps a few long-standing release ordering bugs from deadlocking exit" * tag 'vfs-7.4-rc1.sync_close' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: fs: close files from the highest descriptor down coredump: factor out coredump_wait_inactive() exit: hang up the tty before closing the files fork: release the files of a failed fork after sched_cancel_fork() coredump: replace the startup completion with a thread count sched: add wait_var_event_state() coredump: drop core_state->dumper fs: make close_cloexec_files() synchronous fs: rename do_close_on_exec() to close_cloexec_files() fs: make close_range() synchronous fs: make close_files() synchronous fs: add filp_close_sync() fs: remove unshare_files() fs: move unshare_fd() to fs/file.c fs: add switch_files_struct() coredump: stop unsharing the file descriptor table fs: don't open-code file_close_fd() in close_fd() powerpc: remove coredump support

SO_PASSPIDFD_THREAD works like SO_PASSPIDFD but delivers an SCM_PIDFD_THREAD cmsg for the sending thread. Both options are independent so a receiver can ask for both.

Cachefiles learns to cache the most common class of files properly, files that are created or truncated, written once sequentially and closed. So far it relied on the backing filesystem's idea of what is stored and asked with SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLE before every read it prepared, two seeks per read, and the backing filesystem is free to insert or remove runs of zeros which produces false positives and false negatives. The object type in the state xattr is now actually set to CACHEFILES_CONTENT_{SINGLE,ALL,BACKFS_MAP} instead of zero. For files written contiguously the type is ALL, the backing file's i_size tracks how much is cached and the object size lives in the xattr, and reads skip the seeks entirely. Netfslib queries the cache occupancy through a new ->query_occupancy() method that returns up to two extents at once, ->prepare_read() only limits the size of a cache read anymore and a new ->collect_write() lets the cache update its metadata once a contiguous run of writes completes. The state xattr is preset when the tmpfile is created so ENOSPC from setxattr can't scrap a fully written cache file. Two fixes for this followed, one for resize handling where the cache's idea of the size can be stale and one for an unset error that hung a request on a failed cache write. Preparatory work converts file positions that can't be negative to uoff_t, removes the writethrough code whose locking looked like it could deadlock with ceph snapshots, makes the deprecated PG_private_2 support opt-in so mm can get its page bit back, adds helpers for the NETFS_RREQ_ALL_QUEUED barriers and adds the cache object id to the read and write tracepoints.

An unprivileged process could make a CPU spin on the recursive lock. eventfd-backed poll completions are always deferred now. - fsnotify_inoderemove() is only called once the inode is really dead, no nlink and no aliases, and open_by_handle_at() can't add an alias to a dead inode anymore. The race could crash fsnotify or lose inode mark notifications. - devtmpfs: the conversion of the public instance to ->get_tree() broke reconfiguring the shared superblock's options on later mounts which made the boot time defaults permanent. A reconfigure context is kept in fc->fs_private so the parse ops can forward options to the underlying filesystem. - ufs truncated the 64-bit directory size to an unsigned int in ufs_last_byte(). A crafted image with a 4 GiB directory produced an out-of-folio read in ufs_find_entry() and, with CONFIG_UFS_FS_WRITE, a write into an adjacent page. - devpts rejects max=0 instead of silently lifting the per-instance pty limit. The value wrapped into ida_alloc_max() and became unlimited. - fs_pin publishes pins with the rcu list helpers so the kill paths reading the lists under rcu see the initialization. - dentry_kill() reports a Tasks-RCU quiescent state. Its cond_resched() is the only reschedule point on the dentry teardown path and cond_resched() isn't a quiescent state for Tasks-RCU, so Meta kept seeing rcu_tasks stalls in btrfs subvolume deletion. - writeback sizes foreign flushes by the target wb's dirty pages instead of the memcg-wide count which over or undersized a single bdi flush. - nfsd READ emitted two fsnotify access events on the iterator path since vfs_iocb_iter_read() already sends one. A READ on a krb5i or krb5p mount showed up twice in inotify. - pipe and splice pass a poll key when waking readers and writers so epoll, poll() and select() waiters only wake for the event they asked for. - the iso8859-14 Unicode to charset tables had page01 duplicated as page1e so 29 code points mapped to the wrong bytes and 22 that aren't in the charset were accepted. - orangefs doesn't wait for an unmount service operation that never returns on system shutdown and uses ssize_t for strscpy() errors. - __register_chrdev() checks the kobject_set_name() return value. - selftest fixes: the openat2 tests hardcoded O_LARGEFILE to 0x8000 which is O_NOFOLLOW on powerpc, resolve_test makes /tmp a mountpoint so RESOLVE_NO_XDEV has a boundary to trip over, file_stressor moves into its own directory with a 30 minute timeout, the kernfs listxattr test skips when SELinux exposes security.selinux, the namespaces active reference tests wait for the thread via a PIDFD_THREAD pidfd since pthread_join() returns before exit_nsproxy_namespaces(), the idmapped_tmpfile test chowns its directory into the mapped range, the clone3 CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND test adds CLONE_VM so it fails for the intended reason, the pidfd PPID error message prints the values it compares and fscontext_ns gets a .gitignore.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull path lookup updates from Christian Brauner: "This prepares for Neil's changes to directory locking. The goal is for the VFS to lock the dentry and not the parent directory and to push the i_rwsem parent locking down into the filesystems where it can be kept, removed or adjusted as each filesystem sees fit. The next step in that is to swap the lock order of d_alloc_parallel() and i_rwsem so code can wait on i_rwsem while holding an in-lookup dentry. Two things have to change before that can happen. Nobody may call d_alloc_parallel() while holding i_rwsem, and nobody may d_drop() a dentry while it is being worked on since that effectively unlocks an in-lookup dentry and lets another one be allocated too early. So d_splice_alias() learns to handle hashed dentries in addition to unhashed and in-lookup ones, which is what ->atomic_open() needs and removes the reason filesystems d_drop() first. d_alloc_trylock() is a non-blocking d_alloc_parallel() for the filesystems that prime the dcache from readdir, smb, nfs, fuse and ceph, where waiting for a concurrent lookup is pointless. d_duplicate() creates an in-lookup dentry with the name of an existing one for silly-rename and whiteouts. LOOKUP_SHARED tells ->lookup() how the parent is locked so it can drop and retake it. DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP is tracked by lockdep now with a per filesystem type key, and overlayfs gets its own class since it stacks over itself. And a d_flags bit is reserved for filesystem private use. Also included is Mateusz's fix for the spurious dentry reference cycle on open. __legitimize_path() grabs a reference, do_dentry_open() grabs another and terminate_walk() drops the first. do_dentry_open() consumes the held reference now.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull iomap updates from Christian Brauner: "This contains the iomap changes for this cycle. The bulk is lazy bounce buffering for checksummed reads. XFS bounce buffers every direct read on a device that requires stable pages for checksumming so that userspace modifying the buffer while the read is in flight can't corrupt the data and fail the checksum. That burns DRAM bandwidth and CPU for copies that are almost never needed and, since the bounce buffer was a bio_vec, produced smaller and unaligned I/Os with 4k pages, i.e. 1 MB minus 4k. Now the read goes to the user buffer first and only a checksum failure allocates a bounce buffer and reads again. Integrity verification moves out of iomap into the filesystem so it can handle errors its own way, T10 PI handling for direct I/O moves into ->submit_io() to match buffered I/O, and a sysfs knob restores the old behaviour for the rare application that really does modify in-flight buffers. The block side gains bio_prepare_reissue(), exports fs_bio_integrity_{alloc,free}(), caps atomic writes by the PI buffer size and fixes an integer overflow in max_integrity_io_size() and a PI verification bug with an initial bvec offset. The old read side bounce buffering in the block layer is removed. This is a branch shared with the block tree and may also reach you through the block pull request. Three error handling regressions are fixed: - A failed ->writeback_submit() left wpc->wb_ctx pointing at an already completed ioend which was then submitted a second time and corrupted ip->i_ioend_list on XFS - iomap_fiemap() lost an iteration error when it flushed the pending extent and marked a truncated list as complete - A failed direct I/O bio lost its error when the sub-block tail zeroing succeeded. An XFS error tag to inject the writeback failure comes with it. iomap_dio_hole_iter() respects the block size alignment when iov_iter_zero() stops short at a page boundary, which btrfs with 8k blocks on 4k pages hit as an assertion since it disables page faults during direct I/O.

A coredump sent over the socket transfers every zero of every hole in every mapping. For a process with 128 threads that's 1 GB of mostly thread stacks, 8 MB reservations with a few pages touched, and the holes sit in the middle of the dump rather than at the end. The coredump_filter bit that was proposed for this stops each PT_LOAD at the last populated page. But that mask says which kinds of memory to include and propagates across fork and exec, whereas what is selected here is an encoding. The usermodehelper isn't salvagable for this either. The coredump socket already has a handshake for exactly this. A server that raises COREDUMP_RECORDS in coredump_ack->mask gets the coredump as a sequence of records, each a struct coredump_record_header followed by what it describes. The stream ends explicitly with an end record that reports the size, so a missing one means truncation. With COREDUMP_SPARSE holes cross the socket as a bare header that says how many zero bytes were skipped. Reassembling the records gives back the same coredump, so a debugger and everything else still see an ordinary core file. Numbers from the selftests: the 128 thread process sends 1424153 bytes for a coredump of 1075150848 bytes, a 256 MB mapping with the first and the last page touched sends 188793 bytes for 268890112 bytes, and with COREDUMP_RECORDS alone the record overhead is under one percent. The selftests also simulate a server uploading to a blob store that can't seek and rewrites the program headers so the object is an ordinary ELF core file without the holes. COREDUMP_MEMORY_TYPES lets the server choose what memory to dump per request instead of relying on the static /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter of the crashing task. The request carries the default types and a mask of every type the kernel knows about, the ack carries the selection. Zero is valid and dumps the program headers and notes and nothing but the mappings that are always dumped. Preparatory cleanups refuse negative skips in dump_skip_to(), chunk every write at a page so a pipe or a socket never takes a short write in the middle of a record, make the dump helpers return bool and replace the core_dumped integer with COREDUMP_STATE_STARTED and COREDUMP_STATE_TRUNCATED flags. Also included is a fix for coredump_parse() reading core_pattern while it is being modified.

CLOSE_RANGE_EXCEPT makes close_range() operate on all file descriptors outside of [fd, max_fd] instead of the ones inside. Alone it closes everything but the range. With CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC it marks everything but the range close-on-exec. With CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE dup_fd() never takes a reference on what is dropped. So a task between clone(CLONE_FILES | CLONE_VM | CLONE_VFORK) and execve() that has the descriptors for the child in one window can shed the rest of the shared table in one call and nothing outside of the window is referenced by the child at any point. CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC_ONLY closes the close-on-exec descriptors in the range and leaves everything else alone. Whatever the caller deliberately passes down, stdio, LISTEN_FDS, an inherited pipe, stays where it is. Combined with CLOSE_RANGE_EXCEPT it names the handful of close-on-exec descriptors that have to survive, the executable or an error pipe, and closes every other close-on-exec descriptor.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull buffer_head updates from Christian Brauner: "This stops the buffer_head write completion handlers from clearing BH_Uptodate when a write fails. A buffer whose write failed still holds exactly the data the filesystem asked to be written. It's the disk that is stale, not the buffer. Claiming otherwise has consequences. mark_buffer_dirty() warns when a filesystem redirties the buffer to retry the write, a buffer that isn't up to date gets re-read from disk which silently replaces the data with the stale on-disk copy, and the window between the write completing and BH_Uptodate being cleared is visible to anyone holding the folio lock. BH_Write_EIO already records that the last write failed. Every consumer is moved over to buffer_write_io_error(): the two core helpers in fs/buffer.c, adfs, ext2, omfs, exfat, fat, ext4, ocfs2, gfs2 and jbd2. Then write completion stops touching BH_Uptodate in both directions and BH_Write_EIO is cleared on successful completion instead of at submission, so a resubmission no longer hides an error that hasn't been fixed yet. bforget() and invalidation drop the flag so a reused block doesn't inherit someone else's write error. The groundwork for this removes b_page from struct buffer_head and lets a buffer_head point at memory outside the page cache. jbd2's shadow buffers sit on a slab folio today.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull signal handling updates from Christian Brauner: "This stops TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL from interrupting work that can't be restarted and fixes a bunch of coredump and signal bugs. TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL kicks a task out of an uninterruptible sleep so it returns to userspace, runs its task work and goes back to sleep. That breaks coredumps: dump_interrupted() only lets fatal signals interrupt a dump and writes to a regular file ignore TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. But the pipe and the socket paths check signal_pending() Adeep down in code that is shared with regular syscalls and bail. So a crashing process with io_uring requests in flight loses most of its coredump. In the selftest an unfixed kernel delivers 357324 of at least 5111808 bytes. And io_uring isn't the only source. klp_send_signals(), bpf_task_work_schedule_signal(), landlock's tsync, kthread_stop() and the printk kunit test raise the bit as well, some of them from irq context against any task. So this can't be fixed per subsystem and the state has to be per-task and ambient. Add PF_NO_NOTIFY_SIGNAL and no_notify_signal_save()/restore() helpers modelled on memalloc_nofs_save(). Inside such a section signal_pending() ignores TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. Coredumps, the smb send path, which hand-rolled its own version of this, and the pid namespace reaper, which busy-looped when the bit kept getting raised, are converted. The second part is a set of fixes that fell out of looking at the coredump code with kres and modelling it in TLA+: - coredump_finish() woke the parked threads without holding rcu. A parked thread can exit on a spurious wakeup and be freed before wake_up_process() takes its pi_lock. - Only SIGKILL and the freezers interrupt a dump now and the three freezers agree. Power management and cgroup v1 freezing aborted a dump while a cgroup v2 freeze either waited for the dump or cut it short depending on where the core went. - io-wq set its exit bit without a barrier against the task work that creates workers. On weakly ordered architectures exit could hang on worker_done. - retarget_shared_pending() slingshotted a shared signal to the dumper when a zapped sibling restored its signal mask. That set TIF_SIGPENDING on the dumper and truncated the core. - A tracer could clear the signal mask of a user worker with PTRACE_SETSIGMASK and inject a coredump signal. An io-wq worker of an SQPOLL ring dumping core deadlocks the whole group. PTRACE_SETSIGMASK is refused for user workers now and __set_task_blocked() enforces the fork-time mask. - exec cancels io_uring requests before de_thread() so a worker creation queued as task work can't add a thread to a thread group that de_thread() just took down. - No io threads are created from a PF_SIGNALED or PF_POSTCOREDUMP creator anymore. Such a worker was invisible to zap_process() but still decremented threads_remaining on exit so the dumper could leave coredump_wait_inactive() early.

13 daysbpf: Set up the arena base only in functions that use itKumar Kartikeya Dwivedi
A JIT sets up the arena base in the prologue of every function of a program that has an arena, a callee-saved register loaded with a 64-bit immediate and spilled around the function on x86. That is paid for by every program with an arena, whether it touches the arena or not, and now that libbpf binds the arena of an object to every program in it, by every program of an object that happens to contain an arena. Decide per function, on its final insns, right before it is JITed. bpf_prog_has_arena_insns() looks for an insn that works with the base: an access through an arena pointer, or through a number in a program loaded with BPF_F_ARENA_SCALAR, has been rewritten to a BPF_PROBE_MEM32 form by then, a cast to the user address space keeps BPF_ADDR_SPACE_CAST, and a kfunc call with an __arena argument, which the JIT rebases, has a function model that says so. A load of an __arena struct member is rewritten with an immediate and needs none; dereferencing the result does. Looking at the final insns rather than recording the uses during verification keeps the answer in step with what the JIT sees. A constant NULL passed to a nullable __arena kfunc argument takes the early exit for NULL arguments in the verifier, and the JIT rebases the call all the same; an insn that is dead code has disappeared by then. bpf_prog_jit_compile() caches the answer in bpf_prog_aux for a single function program, jit_subprogs() for each subprogram once it has its kfunc table and arena. It implies that the program has an arena, as the scan says no without one. The JITs with arena support pick up the arena base and user address only when bpf_prog_uses_arena_insns() says so, and so generate the prologue and epilogue of a program bound to an arena it never touches as if it had none. The other users of the arena address of a program stay as they are on purpose. The struct_ops trampoline converts __arena arguments on entry and arena_member_fixup() converts loaded __arena members after the load, both with the base as an immediate. Both have to happen whether or not the program dereferences the result, it may compare, store or pass it on, so neither depends on the base register nor on the flag. The arena fault report reads the user address of the arena the faulting insn belongs to, and such an insn sets the flag anyway. check_map_prog_compatibility() checks the user address when the arena is bound, before any use is known. The rest, in arena.c and sched_ext, works with the map and not with a program.

13 daysbpf: Turn loads of __arena pointer members into arena pointersKumar Kartikeya Dwivedi
A kernel struct shared with BPF programs may want to point at arena memory, e.g. a sched_ext argument struct that the kernel builds in the scheduler's arena and that refers to another arena object. A pointer member reaches the program typed as a kernel pointer, so sched_ext publishes a plain u64 holding a pre-translated arena address that the program casts before use. Translate in the verifier instead. When a load through a kernel struct pointer lands on a member tagged __arena, btf_struct_walk() reports it and the destination register becomes PTR_TO_ARENA. The member holds the kernel address of the arena memory; the fixup pass appends the conversion to the arena pointer form that the struct_ops trampoline applies to __arena arguments, after a plain load or a load-acquire of the member: r1 = *(u64 *)(r2 + off) if r1 == 0 goto +1 // __nullable members and probed loads w1 -= lo32(kern_vm_start) A probed load, through a plain or an untrusted pointer, keeps the NULL test as well: it reads as 0 when it faults, and the subtraction must not turn that into an arena pointer. An acquire load only comes through a pointer that cannot fault. Stores to kernel structs are rejected as before, and with them the atomics that write such a member. A member inside a multi-member union is rejected too: an offset into a union resolves to its first member, so a program reading another member there would receive an arena pointer it did not ask for. Loads through program-allocated objects and program BTF are unaffected, there the tag is what the compiler emits for the arena address space. The rewrite is per insn while verification is per path, so the aux data records what an insn loaded on any path: an insn that loaded an arena pointer member on one path and a different member on another is rejected by the fixup pass, while paths disagreeing only on __nullable keep the NULL test, which a never-NULL member can afford. As for __arena arguments, the program needs an associated arena, which also supplies the base to subtract.

13 daysbpf: Add the __arena and __nullable BTF type tagsKumar Kartikeya Dwivedi
Kernel structures increasingly want to publish pointers into a BPF arena to the BPF programs they are shared with, and some pointer members that reach programs as trusted are legitimately NULL at times. Neither can be expressed today: a pointer member reaches the program as an ordinary kernel pointer, and sched_ext resorts to a plain u64 holding a pre-translated arena address that programs cast before use. Define __arena and __nullable as BTF type tags, the way __user, __rcu and __percpu already are, so that tagged members survive into vmlinux and module BTF and the verifier can act on them. To kernel code and to sparse the qualifiers are empty: the pointers are ordinary kernel pointers. The verifier side follows in the next patches. The tags live in a header of their own, bpf_compiler_types.h, rather than in compiler_types.h. They mean something to the BPF verifier only, and only the few structures shared with BPF programs that want to publish such a pointer carry them, so the code that declares such a structure includes the header and the rest of the kernel never sees the qualifiers.

13 daysnfs/localio: pin UUIDs during global invalidationJinpyo Lee
nfs_localio_invalidate_clients() moves UUID nodes embedded in nfs_client objects to a private list, then walks that list without retaining the containing clients. Concurrent client teardown can free an entry that the iterator has already selected, causing a use-after-free. Take a reference to each selected UUID under the namespace list lock. Keep this reference count in nfs_common, independently of cl_count, and have nfs_free_client() drain temporary UUID users before freeing the client. Releasing a UUID reference wakes waiting probes and signals completion when the last reference is dropped. It neither calls into nfs.ko nor performs final NFS client teardown in the NFSD invalidation context. Keep the UUID on the namespace list until its files have been closed. When another thread is already disabling it, wait for that thread to finish unlinking it instead of repeatedly selecting the same head entry. The wait releases the UUID spinlock so file cleanup can make progress. Append registrations in sequence order and capture the last sequence under the namespace list lock at the start of invalidation. Stop at that boundary so new registrations cannot indefinitely extend the sweep, even if its original last entry is removed concurrently. Publish the LOCALIO association under the UUID and namespace list locks before making the entry visible to invalidation. A temporary UUID reference allows the handshake to drop the global lookup lock before taking the UUID lock in the documented order; recheck the lookup in case the probe was withdrawn. A new probe waits for temporary UUID users to drain, then rechecks the association before reusing the UUID. This keeps a transient invalidation reference from discarding the client's LOCALIO revalidation attempt. Withdraw pending probes before dropping the owner's UUID reference. A deterministic same-base KASAN reproducer triggered the reported use-after-free on the unpatched tree. With this patch, the same controlled invalidation and teardown race completed without the target KASAN report or another selected kernel diagnostic. A separate all-live run recorded disable events for all 16 unique clients. Test-only synchronization hooks verified that a second disabler waits for unlink after ->net is cleared and that client teardown waits for a temporary UUID reference to drain. NFSv4.2 and NFSv3 read, write, and unmount smoke tests, export-flush and I/O stress, NFSD restarts, network namespace lifecycle tests, and module unloads passed with KASAN and lockdep enabled. A full x86_64 kernel and modules build with GCC 13.3, CONFIG_WERROR=y, NFS_FS=m, NFSD=m, and LOCALIO enabled completed without diagnostics. Module metadata showed that nfs_localio.ko depends only on sunrpc, while nfs.ko depends on lockd, nfs_localio, and sunrpc. A separate NFS_FS=m, NFSD=y build also linked vmlinux successfully. The vulnerability research and validation were conducted by members of the Tobabz team as part of the Best of the Best 15th program.

13 daysvt: Add cursor-size helpersThomas Zimmermann
Cursors in the VT subsystem are blocks within a character cell that are filled with the foreground color. The new helpers vc_cursor_start() and vc_cursor_end() return the scanlines in which the cursor block starts rsp. ends. This is compatible with VGA hardware. In terms of cursor design, the new cursor-size helpers follow established styles in fbcon. The only exception is in underline cursors for fonts with a size larger than 10. The underlining dash is now one pixel closer to the font-glyph data, so that the cursor looks less detached. This follows the style used by vgacon. Users control the cursor size with the vt module's parameter cur_default or with the ESC sequence \e[?Nc, where N is the cursor-size constant. In case of an invalid setting, the new helpers fall back to cur_default and then underline cursors; in this order. Similar code in vgacon and fbcon ignores the cursor's default size stored in vt.cur_default. The consoles default to full-block cursors, while vt defaults to underline cursors. VGA BIOSes also tend to use underline by. default. Upon initialization vt applies its default to the console, but each console might fall back to it own default. For example, running the ESC code from above with the invalid constant of 8 magically flips the cursor from underline to block size on vgacon. Another call with N set to 0 (i.e., default) magically flips it back to underlyine. Making underline the new default everywhere harmonizes vt, fbcon and most VGA BIOSes.
