<id>urn:sha1:b77600e26fd48727a95ffd50ba1e937efb548125</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 4a7ba45b1a435e7097ca0f79a847d0949d0eb088 upstream.

memcg_write_event_control() accesses the dentry-&gt;d_name of the specified
control fd to route the write call.  As a cgroup interface file can't be
renamed, it's safe to access d_name as long as the specified file is a
regular cgroup file.  Also, as these cgroup interface files can't be
removed before the directory, it's safe to access the parent too.

Prior to 347c4a874710 ("memcg: remove cgroup_event-&gt;cft"), there was a
call to __file_cft() which verified that the specified file is a regular
cgroupfs file before further accesses.  The cftype pointer returned from
__file_cft() was no longer necessary and the commit inadvertently dropped
the file type check with it allowing any file to slip through.  With the
invarients broken, the d_name and parent accesses can now race against
renames and removals of arbitrary files and cause use-after-free's.

Fix the bug by resurrecting the file type check in __file_cft().  Now that
cgroupfs is implemented through kernfs, checking the file operations needs
to go through a layer of indirection.  Instead, let's check the superblock
and dentry type.

<title>perf: Add sample_flags to indicate the PMU-filled sample data</title>

<id>urn:sha1:86a4ce251fa9e2aacad82d8040194c014fecfd03</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 3aac580d5cc3001ca1627725b3b61edb529f341d ]

On some platforms, some data e.g., timestamps, can be retrieved from
the PMU driver. Usually, the data from the PMU driver is more accurate.
The current perf kernel should output the PMU-filled sample data if
it's available.

To check the availability of the PMU-filled sample data, the current
perf kernel initializes the related fields in the
perf_sample_data_init(). When outputting a sample, the perf checks
whether the field is updated by the PMU driver. If yes, the updated
value will be output. If not, the perf uses an SW way to calculate the
value or just outputs the initialized value if an SW way is unavailable
either.

With more and more data being provided by the PMU driver, more fields
has to be initialized in the perf_sample_data_init(). That will
increase the number of cache lines touched in perf_sample_data_init()
and be harmful to the performance.

Add new "sample_flags" to indicate the PMU-filled sample data. The PMU
driver should set the corresponding PERF_SAMPLE_ flag when the field is
updated. The initialization of the corresponding field is not required
anymore. The following patches will make use of it and remove the
corresponding fields from the perf_sample_data_init(), which will
further minimize the number of cache lines touched.

Only clear the sample flags that have already been done by the PMU
driver in the perf_prepare_sample() for the PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE. For the
other PERF_RECORD_ event type, the sample data is not available.

<title>linux/bits.h: make BIT(), GENMASK(), and friends available in assembly</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8b09c0c78f0855af07755f9510adb2fda5835fe1</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 95b980d62d52c4c1768ee719e8db3efe27ef52b2 upstream.

BIT(),  GENMASK(), etc. are useful to define register bits of hardware.
However, low-level code is often written in assembly, where they are
not available due to the hard-coded 1UL, 0UL.

In fact, in-kernel headers such as arch/arm64/include/asm/sysreg.h
use _BITUL() instead of BIT() so that the register bit macros are
available in assembly.

Using macros in include/uapi/linux/const.h have two reasons:

[1] For use in uapi headers
  We should use underscore-prefixed variants for user-space.

[2] For use in assembly code
  Since _BITUL() uses UL(1) instead of 1UL, it can be used as an
  alternative of BIT().

For [2], it is pretty easy to change BIT() etc. for use in assembly.

This allows to replace _BUTUL() in kernel-space headers with BIT().

<title>linux/const.h: move UL() macro to include/linux/const.h</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 2dd8a62c647691161a2346546834262597739872 upstream.

ARM, ARM64 and UniCore32 duplicate the definition of UL():

  #define UL(x) _AC(x, UL)

This is not actually arch-specific, so it will be useful to move it to a
common header.  Currently, we only have the uapi variant for
linux/const.h, so I am creating include/linux/const.h.

I also added _UL(), _ULL() and ULL() because _AC() is mostly used in
the form either _AC(..., UL) or _AC(..., ULL).  I expect they will be
replaced in follow-up cleanups.  The underscore-prefixed ones should
be used for exported headers.

commit 161a438d730dade2ba2b1bf8785f0759aba4ca5f upstream.

We no longer need at least 64 bytes of random seed to permit the early
crng init to complete. The RNG is now based on Blake2s, so reduce the
EFI seed size to the Blake2s hash size, which is sufficient for our
purposes.

While at it, drop the READ_ONCE(), which was supposed to prevent size
from being evaluated after seed was unmapped. However, this cannot
actually happen, so READ_ONCE() is unnecessary here.

commit e9d7144597b10ff13ff2264c059f7d4a7fbc89ac upstream

Intel uses the same family/model for several CPUs. Sometimes the
stepping must be checked to tell them apart.

On x86 there can be at most 16 steppings. Add a steppings bitmask to
x86_cpu_id and a X86_MATCH_VENDOR_FAMILY_MODEL_STEPPING_FEATURE macro
and support for matching against family/model/stepping.

[ Upstream commit 4f58330fcc8482aa90674e1f40f601e82f18ed4a ]

IOMMU_IOVA is intended to be an optional library for users to select as
and when they desire. Since it can be a module now, this means that
built-in code which has chosen not to select it should not fail to link
if it happens to have selected as a module by someone else. Replace
IS_ENABLED() with IS_REACHABLE() to do the right thing.
