Forwarding variadic argument lists can't be done by passing a va_list
to a function with signature foo(...) (as panic() has). It ends up
interpreting the va_list itself as a single argument instead of
iterating it. printf() happily accepts it of course, leading to corrupt
output.
Convert panic_show_mem() to a macro to allow forwarding the arguments.
The function is trivial enough that it's easier than trying to introduce
a vpanic() variant.

Change no bootconfig data error message if user do not specify 'bootconfig'
option but CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y.
With CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y, the kernel proceeds bootconfig check even
if user does not specify 'bootconfig' option. So the current error message
is confusing. Let's show just an information message to notice skipping
the bootconfig in that case.

on socket by socket basis.
- Track and report in procfs number of MPTCP sockets used.
- Support mixing IPv4 and IPv6 flows in the in-kernel MPTCP path
manager.
- IPv6: don't check net.ipv6.route.max_size and rely on garbage

reporting.
- WiFi 7 EHT channel puncturing support (client & AP).
BPF:
- Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure"
precedent set by recently added linked list, that is, by using
kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type.
- Expose XDP hints via kfuncs with initial support for RX hash and
timestamp metadata.
- Add BPF_F_NO_TUNNEL_KEY extension to bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key to

years, and we still have WARN splats wrt races of the out-of-band
/proc interface installed by this target.
- Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to the
existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if the
referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist.

- Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from
a specific point in the action chain).
- Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with
modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless
Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to
using nl80211 interface instead.
- Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return
error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling,
including the definition of a new default value that will benefit
CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

When a kernel is built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y, the intention
will normally be to unconditionally provide the specified kernel-boot
arguments to the kernel, as opposed to requiring a separately provided
bootconfig parameter. Therefore, make the BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE Kconfig
option default to y in kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y.
The old semantics may be obtained by manually overriding this default.

The BOOT_CONFIG family of Kconfig options allows a bootconfig file
containing kernel boot parameters to be embedded into an initrd or into
the kernel itself. This can be extremely useful when deploying kernels
in cases where some of the boot parameters depend on the kernel version
rather than on the server hardware, firmware, or workload.
Unfortunately, the "bootconfig" kernel parameter must be specified in
order to cause the kernel to look for the embedded bootconfig file,
and it clearly does not help to embed this "bootconfig" kernel parameter
into that file.
Therefore, provide a new BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE Kconfig option that causes the
kernel to act as if the "bootconfig" kernel parameter had been specified.
In other words, kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y will look
for the embedded bootconfig file even when the "bootconfig" kernel
parameter is omitted. This permits kernel-version-dependent kernel
boot parameters to be embedded into the kernel image without the need to
(for example) update large numbers of boot loaders.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu
Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:
- Documentation updates
- Miscellaneous fixes, perhaps most notably:
- Throttling callback invocation based on the number of callbacks
that are now ready to invoke instead of on the total number of
callbacks
- Several patches that suppress false-positive boot-time
diagnostics, for example, due to lockdep not yet being
initialized
- Make expedited RCU CPU stall warnings dump stacks of any tasks
that are blocking the stalled grace period. (Normal RCU CPU
stall warnings have done this for many years)
- Lazy-callback fixes to avoid delays during boot, suspend, and
resume. (Note that lazy callbacks must be explicitly enabled, so
this should not (yet) affect production use cases)
- Make kfree_rcu() and friends take advantage of polled grace periods,
thus reducing memory footprint by almost two orders of magnitude,
admittedly on a microbenchmark
This also begins the transition from kfree_rcu(p) to
kfree_rcu_mightsleep(p). This transition was motivated by bugs where
kfree_rcu(p), which can block, was typed instead of the intended
kfree_rcu(p, rh)
- SRCU updates, perhaps most notably fixing a bug that causes SRCU to
fail when booted on a system with a non-zero boot CPU. This
surprising situation actually happens for kdump kernels on the
powerpc architecture
This also adds an srcu_down_read() and srcu_up_read(), which act like
srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock(), but allow an SRCU read-side
critical section to be handed off from one task to another
- Clean up the now-useless SRCU Kconfig option
There are a few more commits that are not yet acked or pulled into
maintainer trees, and these will be in a pull request for a later
merge window
- RCU-tasks updates, perhaps most notably these fixes:
- A strange interaction between PID-namespace unshare and the
RCU-tasks grace period that results in a low-probability but
very real hang
- A race between an RCU tasks rude grace period on a single-CPU
system and CPU-hotplug addition of the second CPU that can
result in a too-short grace period
- A race between shrinking RCU tasks down to a single callback
list and queuing a new callback to some other CPU, but where
that queuing is delayed for more than an RCU grace period. This
can result in that callback being stranded on the non-boot CPU
- Torture-test updates and fixes
- Torture-test scripting updates and fixes
- Provide additional RCU CPU stall-warning information in kernels built
with CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_CPUTIME=y, and restore the full five-minute
timeout limit for expedited RCU CPU stall warnings

strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool(). However, the latter is more used
within the kernel.
In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to
the other function name.
While at it, include the corresponding header file (<linux/kstrtox.h>)

page_ext must be initialized after all struct pages are initialized.
Therefore, page_ext is initialized after page_alloc_init_late(), and can
optionally be initialized earlier via early_page_ext kernel parameter
which as a side effect also disables deferred struct pages.
Allow to automatically init page_ext early when there are no deferred
struct pages in order to be able to use page_ext during kernel boot and
track for example page allocations early.

Version 1.24 of pahole has the capability to exclude compilation units (CUs)
of specific languages [1] [2]. Rust, as of writing, is not currently supported
by pahole and if it's used with a build that has BTF debugging enabled it
results in malformed kernel and module binaries [3]. So it's better for pahole
to exclude Rust CUs until support for it arrives.

Pull kernel hardening fixes from Kees Cook:
- Fix CFI hash randomization with KASAN (Sami Tolvanen)
- Check size of coreboot table entry and use flex-array
* tag 'hardening-v6.2-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
kbuild: Fix CFI hash randomization with KASAN
firmware: coreboot: Check size of table entry and use flex-array
|
|
Clang emits a asan.module_ctor constructor to each object file
when KASAN is enabled, and these functions are indirectly called
in do_ctors. With CONFIG_CFI_CLANG, the compiler also emits a CFI
type hash before each address-taken global function so they can
pass indirect call checks.
However, in commit 0c3e806ec0f9 ("x86/cfi: Add boot time hash
randomization"), x86 implemented boot time hash randomization,
which relies on the .cfi_sites section generated by objtool. As
objtool is run against vmlinux.o instead of individual object
files with X86_KERNEL_IBT (enabled by default), CFI types in
object files that are not part of vmlinux.o end up not being
included in .cfi_sites, and thus won't get randomized and trip
CFI when called.
Only .vmlinux.export.o and init/version-timestamp.o are linked
into vmlinux separately from vmlinux.o. As these files don't
contain any functions, disable KASAN for both of them to avoid
breaking hash randomization.

We had already disabled this warning for gcc-12 due to bugs in the value
range analysis, but it turns out we end up having some similar problems
with gcc-11.3 too, so let's disable it there too.
Older gcc versions end up being increasingly less relevant, and
hopefully clang and newer version of gcc (ie gcc-13) end up working
reliably enough that we still get the build coverage even when we
disable this for some versions.

This feature allows the scheduler to expose a per-memory map concurrency
ID to user-space. This concurrency ID is within the possible cpus range,
and is temporarily (and uniquely) assigned while threads are actively
running within a memory map. If a memory map has fewer threads than
cores, or is limited to run on few cores concurrently through sched
affinity or cgroup cpusets, the concurrency IDs will be values close
to 0, thus allowing efficient use of user-space memory for per-cpu
data structures.
This feature is meant to be exposed by a new rseq thread area field.
The primary purpose of this feature is to do the heavy-lifting needed
by memory allocators to allow them to use per-cpu data structures
efficiently in the following situations:
- Single-threaded applications,
- Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with limited
cpu affinity mask,
- Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with
restricted cgroup cpuset per container.
One of the key concern from scheduler maintainers is the overhead
associated with additional spin locks or atomic operations in the
scheduler fast-path. This is why the following optimization is
implemented.
On context switch between threads belonging to the same memory map,
transfer the mm_cid from prev to next without any atomic ops. This
takes care of use-cases involving frequent context switch between
threads belonging to the same memory map.
Additional optimizations can be done if the spin locks added when
context switching between threads belonging to different memory maps end
up being a performance bottleneck. Those are left out of this patch
though. A performance impact would have to be clearly demonstrated to
justify the added complexity.
The credit goes to Paul Turner (Google) for the original virtual cpu id
idea. This feature is implemented based on the discussions with Paul
Turner and Peter Oskolkov (Google), but I took the liberty to implement
scheduler fast-path optimizations and my own NUMA-awareness scheme. The
rumor has it that Google have been running a rseq vcpu_id extension
internally in production for a year. The tcmalloc source code indeed has
comments hinting at a vcpu_id prototype extension to the rseq system
call [1].
The following benchmarks do not show any significant overhead added to
the scheduler context switch by this feature:
* perf bench sched messaging (process)
Baseline: 86.5±0.3 ms
With mm_cid: 86.7±2.6 ms
* perf bench sched messaging (threaded)
Baseline: 84.3±3.0 ms
With mm_cid: 84.7±2.6 ms
* hackbench (process)
Baseline: 82.9±2.7 ms
With mm_cid: 82.9±2.9 ms
* hackbench (threaded)
Baseline: 85.2±2.6 ms
With mm_cid: 84.4±2.9 ms

Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"Tux gets for xmas an improvement to the average lookup performance of
kallsyms_lookup_name() by 715x thanks to the work by Zhen Lei, which
upgraded our old implementation from being O(n) to O(log(n)), while
also retaining the old implementation support on /proc/kallsyms.
The only penalty was increasing the memory footprint by 3 *
kallsyms_num_syms. Folks who want to improve this further now also
have a dedicated selftest facility through KALLSYMS_SELFTEST.
Stephen Boyd added zstd in-kernel decompression support, but the only
users of this would be folks using the load-pin LSM because otherwise

Commit 2df8220cc511 ("kbuild: build init/built-in.a just once") moved
the usage of the define UTS_RELEASE to the file version-timestamp.c.
version-timestamp.c in turn is included from version.c but already
includes utsrelease.h itself properly.
The unneeded include of utsrelease.h from version.c can be dropped.

Most /proc files don't have length (in fstat sense). This leads to
inefficiencies when reading such files with APIs commonly found in modern
programming languages. They open file, then fstat descriptor, get st_size
== 0 and either assume file is empty or start reading without knowing
target size.
cat(1) does OK because it uses large enough buffer by default. But naive
programs copy-pasted from SO aren't:
let mut f = std::fs::File::open("/proc/cmdline").unwrap();
let mut buf: Vec<u8> = Vec::new();
f.read_to_end(&mut buf).unwrap();
will result in
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/proc/cmdline", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
statx(0, NULL, AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT, STATX_ALL, NULL) = -1 EFAULT (Bad address)
statx(3, "", AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT|AT_EMPTY_PATH, STATX_ALL, {stx_mask=STATX_BASIC_STATS|STATX_MNT_ID, stx_attributes=0, stx_mode=S_IFREG|0444, stx_size=0, ...}) = 0
lseek(3, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 0
read(3, "BOOT_IMAGE=(hd3,gpt2)/vmlinuz-5.", 32) = 32
read(3, "19.6-100.fc35.x86_64 root=/dev/m", 32) = 32
read(3, "apper/fedora_localhost--live-roo"..., 64) = 64
read(3, "ocalhost--live-swap rd.lvm.lv=fe"..., 128) = 116
read(3, "", 12)
open/stat is OK, lseek looks silly but there are 3 unnecessary reads
because Rust starts with 32 bytes per Vec<u8> and grows from there.
In case of /proc/cmdline, the length is known precisely.
Make variables readonly while I'm at it.
P.S.: I tried to scp /proc/cpuinfo today and got empty file
but this is separate story.

Added test cases for basic functions and performance of functions
kallsyms_lookup_name(), kallsyms_on_each_symbol() and
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol(). It also calculates the compression rate
of the kallsyms compression algorithm for the current symbol set.
The basic functions test begins by testing a set of symbols whose address
values are known. Then, traverse all symbol addresses and find the
corresponding symbol name based on the address. It's impossible to
determine whether these addresses are correct, but we can use the above
three functions along with the addresses to test each other. Due to the
traversal operation of kallsyms_on_each_symbol() is too slow, only 60
symbols can be tested in one second, so let it test on average once
every 128 symbols. The other two functions validate all symbols.
If the basic functions test is passed, print only performance test
results. If the test fails, print error information, but do not perform
subsequent performance tests.
Start self-test automatically after system startup if
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST=y.
Example of output content: (prefix 'kallsyms_selftest:' is omitted

Andrew Cooper suggested upgrading the orphan section warning to a hard link
error. However Nathan Chancellor said outright turning the warning into an
error with no escape hatch might be too aggressive, as we have had these
warnings triggered by new compiler generated sections, and suggested turning
orphan sections into an error only if CONFIG_WERROR is set. Kees Cook echoed
and emphasized that the mandate from Linus is that we should avoid breaking
builds. It wrecks bisection, it causes problems across compiler versions, etc.
Thus upgrade the orphan section warning to a hard link error only if
CONFIG_WERROR is set.

Commit 3c07bfce92a5 ("proc: make config PROC_CHILDREN depend on PROC_FS")
make config PROC_CHILDREN depend on PROC_FS.
When CONFIG_PROC_FS is not set and CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=y,
make menuconfig screams like this:
WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for PROC_CHILDREN
Depends on [n]: PROC_FS [=n]
Selected by [y]:
- CHECKPOINT_RESTORE [=y]
CHECKPOINT_RESTORE would select PROC_CHILDREN which depends on PROC_FS,
so add depends on PROC_FS to CHECKPOINT_RESTORE to fix this.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
- Huawei reported that when they updated their kernel from 4.4 to
something much newer, some userspace code they had broke, the culprit
being the accidental removal of O_NONBLOCK from /dev/random way back
in 5.6. It's been gone for over 2 years now and this is the first
we've heard of it, but userspace breakage is userspace breakage, so
O_NONBLOCK is now back.
- Use randomness from hardware RNGs much more often during early boot,
at the same interval that crng reseeds are done, from Dominik.
- A semantic change in hardware RNG throttling, so that the hwrng
framework can properly feed random.c with randomness from hardware
RNGs that aren't specifically marked as creditable.
A related patch coming to you via Herbert's hwrng tree depends on
this one, not to compile, but just to function properly, so you may
want to merge this PULL before that one.
- A fix to clamp credited bits from the interrupts pool to the size of
the pool sample. This is mainly just a theoretical fix, as it'd be
pretty hard to exceed it in practice.
- Oracle reported that InfiniBand TCP latency regressed by around
10-15% after a change a few cycles ago made at the request of the RT
folks, in which we hoisted a somewhat rare operation (1 in 1024
times) out of the hard IRQ handler and into a workqueue, a pretty
common and boring pattern.
It turns out, though, that scheduling a worker from there has
overhead of its own, whereas scheduling a timer on that same CPU for
the next jiffy amortizes better and doesn't incur the same overhead.
I also eliminated a cache miss by moving the work_struct (and
subsequently, the timer_list) to below a critical cache line, so that
the more critical members that are accessed on every hard IRQ aren't
split between two cache lines.
- The boot-time initialization of the RNG has been split into two
approximate phases: what we can accomplish before timekeeping is
possible and what we can accomplish after.
This winds up being useful so that we can use RDRAND to seed the RNG
before CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM=y systems initialize slabs, in
addition to other early uses of randomness. The effect is that
systems with RDRAND (or a bootloader seed) will never see any
warnings at all when setting CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM=y. And
kfence benefits from getting a better seed of its own.
- Small systems without much entropy sometimes wind up putting some
truncated serial number read from flash into hostname, so contribute
utsname changes to the RNG, without crediting.
- Add smaller batches to serve requests for smaller integers, and make
use of them when people ask for random numbers bounded by a given
compile-time constant. This has positive effects all over the tree,
most notably in networking and kfence.
- The original jitter algorithm intended (I believe) to schedule the
timer for the next jiffy, not the next-next jiffy, yet it used
mod_timer(jiffies + 1), which will fire on the next-next jiffy,
instead of what I believe was intended, mod_timer(jiffies), which
will fire on the next jiffy. So fix that.
- Fix a comment typo, from William.

Since 2d1c498072de ("mm: memcontrol: make swap tracking an integral part
of memory control"), CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP hasn't been a user-visible config
option anymore, it just means CONFIG_MEMCG && CONFIG_SWAP.
Update the sites accordingly and drop the symbol.
[ While touching the docs, remove two references to CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM,
which hasn't been a user-visible symbol for over half a decade. ]
