selftests/ftrace: refactor eprobes test to fix argument checks

2026-08-19T15:14:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6e3abef2a27e7402a94111c9eff85d887e64a309 ] The add/remove eprobe test installs an eprobe for the openat syscall and runs ls. It checks the filenames that were opened by ls against a whitelist and a blacklist. Commit 206b25c09080 ("tracing: eprobe: read the complete FILTER_PTR_STRING pointer") fixed access to some string fields in eprobes. This triggers test failures as the blacklist does not allow relative paths for the openat parameters. What makes this test unstable is the fact that the openat calls vary a lot between different systems. Refactor the test to make it more robust. "cd " will issue a chdir syscall with the target directory as parameter. Set an eprobe on the sys_enter_chdir event and filter for the exact directory name. Allow (fault) as fallback.

selftests/clone3: fix wild pointer access of getline due to missing init

2026-08-19T15:14:10+00:00

commit 8f6f9fd93cd7a5dd607ad5cd910476dd68fff3ed upstream. Patch series "selftests: Add missing initalization of pointer passed to getline", v2. This patch (of 2): Clone3_set_tid uses getline(&line, ...) in a loop to read the child's process status. The code expects that getline allocates the buffer for the line on the first loop iteration. According to the Open Group Spec[1], char *line has to be null pointer for this: > ssize_t getline(char **restrict lineptr, ...); > If *lineptr is a null pointer or if the object pointed to by *lineptr > is of insufficient size, an object shall be allocated as if by malloc() > or the object shall be reallocated as if by realloc()[...]. However, char *line is only declared, leading to an undefined value that is potentially non-null. In an example run with Musl v1.2.6, the realloc call[2] of getdelim, which implements getline, triggers a segfault: ./run_kselftest.sh --test clone3:clone3_set_tid [ 1366.165898] kselftest: Running tests in clone3 ...

Looking at the realloc implementation, Musl mallocs for a null pointer memory. But for a non-null pointer, it assumes it's passed a valid pointer to the heap and tries to access its meta-data. This leads to the segfault we see: void *realloc(void *p, size_t n) { if (!p) return malloc(n); if (size_overflows(n)) return 0; struct meta *g = get_meta(p); ... } Fix this by properly initializing the line pointer to NULL.

selftests/mm: fix exclusive_cow test fork() handling

2026-07-24T13:51:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit cea5702144615878600d3a39b5d8b3cc34719012 ] The test ignores the return value of fork(), so both the parent and the (newly created) child run the COW verification loops and then call hmm_buffer_free() before returning into the kselftest harness, which _exit()s each side. This duplicated teardown sequence has been observed to manifest as a SIGSEGV in the test child, e.g.: hmm-tests[360141]: segfault (11) at 0 nip 10006964 lr 1000ac3c code 1 in hmm-tests[6964,10000000+30000] Fix this by adopting the same fork()-then-wait pattern already used by the nearby anon_write_child / anon_write_child_shared tests in this file: the child performs the COW verification and then _exit(0)s so it does not run the test teardown, while the parent independently verifies COW, waits for the child, and only then frees the buffer.

selftests/mm: allow PUD-level entries in compound testcase of hmm tests

2026-07-24T13:51:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit 224ed0e019b122d08580362abe57574a78f2b5fa ] Patch series "selftests/mm: assorted fixes for hmm-tests", v3. This series fixes a few issues in hmm-tests that show up when page-size and huge-page configuration differ from the hardcoded assumptions the tests were written for (PMD/THP sizing, default hugepage size, and related cases). It also includes a fix to exclusive_cow: the test ignored the return value of fork(), so both parent and child ran the same teardown path. This patch (of 3): The HMM compound testcase currently assumes only PMD-level mappings and fails on systems where default_hugepagesz=1G is set, because the region is then reported by the device at PUD level. Determine the mapping level (PMD or PUD) the device reports for the first page of the range and require every page to match that level exactly via ASSERT_EQ(). This accepts PUD-level mappings while preserving the expected/observed protection values printed on failure, and rejects a fragmented mapping that mixes PMD- and PUD-level entries within the same range (which a per-page OR check would have let pass).

Revert "ptp: add testptp mask test"

2026-07-04T11:39:37+00:00

This reverts commit 8510559c0fa1e228b18fcf77cfbcf5b970793a8a, which is commit 26285e689c6cd2cf3849568c83b2ebe53f467143 upstream. The reverted commit extends the selftest to test timestamp event queue mask manipulation in testptp. It exercises masks PTP_MASK_CLEAR_ALL and PTP_MASK_EN_SINGLE, introduced in commit c5a445b1e934 ("ptp: support event queue reader channel masks"), which is not on this stable branch. The test case thus cannot be built against this tree's own UAPI headers. The reverted commit was introduced to resolve a missing dependency of commit bef3a83a9a67 ("testptp: Add option to open PHC in readonly mode"), which is 76868642e427 upstream. The only conflict between the two is the getopt string, and there is otherwise no direct dependency between the two. This patch therefore reverts the cited commit, with hand-resolving the getopt string to include 'r' (as introduced by c6dc458227a3), but not 'F' (introduced by c1c50689799d).

That is done via a PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED ioctl call, whose argument is struct ptp_sys_offset_extended, where the clock_id is set. However, this Linux version does not support the ptp_sys_offset_extended.clockid field, and the test case cannot be built against this tree's own UAPI headers. The reverted commit was introduced to resolve a missing dependency of commit bef3a83a9a67 ("testptp: Add option to open PHC in readonly mode"), which is 76868642e427 upstream.
