commit 082c412097716b93ff1365689fc4ddcd1ce8296f upstream.

sashiko complained that 38498c0ebacd ("selftests/bpf: Adjust verifier_map_ptr
for the map's excl field") would slightly decrease the test coverage given
before the test was against the verifier rejecting the ops pointer. Recover
the old test with the right offsets and add the existing one as an additional
test case.

commit 38498c0ebacd54dbaac3513a548a13f1a8455c4e upstream.

Adding the u32 excl field at offset 32 of struct bpf_map right after the
sha[SHA256_DIGEST_SIZE] hash shifts the ops pointer from offset 32 to 40.
Therefore, fix up the test case.

commit 6f59deb32efa4673fc3b1fef9f3a0da48e9d8494 upstream.

Add verifier coverage for constant negative offsets on PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER
and PTR_TO_BUF pointers. Both programs adjust the buffer pointer by -8
and access it at offset zero, so the negative effective start must be
rejected at load time.

Switch the raw tracepoint writable attach checks from nbd_send_request
to bpf_testmod_test_writable_bare_tp, avoiding a dependency on the NBD
tracepoint. Keep the existing past-end case and add a case with a
negative var_off compensated by a positive instruction offset. The
effective start remains non-negative, so the program loads, but its
access end exceeds the writable context size and
bpf_raw_tracepoint_open() must return -EINVAL.

[ Upstream commit 38ba6d43af3844ae502092ee9dcc47214e82acb8 ]

Add a conntrack kfunc regression check for opts__sz values that do not
cover opts-&gt;error. The BPF program initializes opts-&gt;error with a guard
value, calls the lookup and allocation kfuncs with opts__sz set to
sizeof(opts-&gt;netns_id), and verifies that the guard is still intact
after the kfunc returns NULL.

Without the conntrack wrapper guard, the kfunc error path overwrites
that guard with -EINVAL even though the verifier checked only the first
four bytes of the options object.

[ Upstream commit 2e8ad1ff712d2a397e407c9fde60901f68d077dc ]

For selftest bpf_iter/task_vma, I got a failure like below on my qemu run:

test_task_vma_common:FAIL:compare_output unexpected compare_output:
    actual
    '561593546000-561593585000r--p0000000000:241256579534/root/devshare/bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_progs'

Further debugging found out file-&gt;f_inode-&gt;i_ino value may exceed 32bit,
e.g., i_ino = 0x14c2eae35, but the format string is '%u'. This caused
inode mismatch between bpf iter and proc result.

Fix the issue by using format string '%llu' to accommodate 64bit i_ino.

<title>bpf: Cancel special fields on map value recycle</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit a3a81d247651218e47153f2d2afd7aee236726fd ]

Map update and delete paths currently call bpf_obj_free_fields() when a
value is being replaced or recycled. That makes field destruction depend
on the context of the update/delete operation. For tracing programs this
can include NMI context, where referenced kptr destructors, uptr
unpinning, and graph root destruction are not generally safe.

Introduce bpf_obj_cancel_fields() for the reusable-value path. It only
performs NMI-safe cleanup for timer, workqueue, and task_work fields.
Fields that need full destruction are left attached to the recycled value
and are destroyed by the final cleanup path instead.

Switch array and hashtab update/delete/recycle paths to this cancel
helper. Keep bpf_obj_free_fields() for final map destruction and for
bpf_mem_alloc destructors. Preallocated hashtabs do not have allocator
destructors, so teardown continues to walk the normal and extra elements
and fully destroy their fields.

This deliberately relaxes the eager-free semantics of map update/delete
for special fields. Programs that relied on a recycled map slot becoming
empty immediately after update/delete were relying on behavior that
cannot be implemented safely from every BPF execution context without
offloading arbitrary destructors.

There is a chance this change breaks programs making assumptions
regarding the eager freeing of fields. If so, we can relax semantics to
cancellation only when irqs_disabled() is true in the future. However,
theoretically, map values that get reused eagerly already have weaker
guarantees as parallel users can recreate freed fields before the new
element becomes visible again.

Add a new selftest to verify that the BPF syscall (specifically
BPF_PROG_QUERY) correctly handles different user-declared attribute sizes.

Specifically, verify that:
- For cgroup queries, a query with a size that covers 'prog_cnt' but is
  smaller than 'revision' (OLD_QUERY_SIZE) succeeds, but does not write
  to 'revision' (verifying backward compatibility).
- A query with full size (FULL_QUERY_SIZE) succeeds and writes both
  'prog_cnt' and 'revision'.
