Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Addition of faultable tracepoints
There's a tracepoint attached to both a system call entry and exit.
This location is known to allow page faults. The tracepoints are
called under an rcu_read_lock() which does not allow faults that can
sleep. This limits the ability of tracepoint handlers to page fault
in user space system call parameters. Now these tracepoints have been
made "faultable", allowing the callbacks to fault in user space
parameters and record them.
Note, only the infrastructure has been implemented. The consumers
(perf, ftrace, BPF) now need to have their code modified to allow
faults.
- Fix up of BPF code for the tracepoint faultable logic
- Update tracepoints to use the new static branch API
- Remove trace_*_rcuidle() variants and the SRCU protection they used
- Remove unused TRACE_EVENT_FL_FILTERED logic
- Replace strncpy() with strscpy() and memcpy()
- Use replace per_cpu_ptr(smp_processor_id()) with this_cpu_ptr()
- Fix perf events to not duplicate samples when tracing is enabled
- Replace atomic64_add_return(1, counter) with
atomic64_inc_return(counter)
- Make stack trace buffer 4K instead of PAGE_SIZE
- Remove TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_NOSUPPORT flag as it was never used
- Get the true return address for function tracer when function graph
tracer is also running.
When function_graph trace is running along with function tracer, the
parent function of the function tracer sometimes is
"return_to_handler", which is the function graph trampoline to record
the exit of the function. Use existing logic that calls into the
fgraph infrastructure to find the real return address.
- Remove (un)regfunc pointers out of tracepoint structure
- Added last minute bug fix for setting pending modules in stack
function filter.
echo "write*:mod:ext3" > /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter
Would cause a kernel NULL dereference.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update for timekeeping and timers:
- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers
posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the
signal of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be
delivered once the corresponding signal is unignored.
This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small
intervals and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states
for no value. This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to
the lock order of posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with
life time issues as the timer and the sigqueue have different life
time rules.
Cure this by:
- Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same
life time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of
the timer in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a
always valid container_of() now.
- Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
- Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the
signal is switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
- Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal
delivery code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they
are consistent across all situations. With that all self test
scenarios finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time
stamps by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode
attributes are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that
the VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
- Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
- Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline
functions and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper
defines.
- Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the
timer wheel granularity on different HZ values into account.
Right now the boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail
to provide the requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
- Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions
and fix up stale documentation links all over the place
- Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP
clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as
that's the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the
various user space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file
descriptor based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited.
They can't be accessed fast as they always go all the way out to
the hardware and they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.
The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2)
infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the
kernel provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc.
Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework
converts timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality
which operates on pointers to data structures instead of using
static variables.
This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality
for the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step.
- Consolidate hrtimer initialization
hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then
seperately setting the callback function for historical reasons.
That's an extra unnecessary step and makes Rust support less
straight forward than it should be.
Provide a new set of hrtimer_setup*() functions and convert the
core code and a few usage sites of the less frequently used
interfaces over.
The bulk of the htimer_init() to hrtimer_setup() conversion is
already prepared and scheduled for the next merge window.
- Drivers:
- Ensure that the global timekeeping clocksource is utilizing the
cluster 0 timer on MIPS multi-cluster systems.
Otherwise CPUs on different clusters use their cluster specific
clocksource which is not guaranteed to be synchronized with
other clusters.
- Mostly boring cleanups, fixes, improvements and code movement"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Fixup and improve NLM and kNFSD file lock callbacks
Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their
locking more robust when exported over NFS. Unfortunately, part of
that work caused both NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for
NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send lock notifications to clients
This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will
still poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock
It's important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their
kernel threads inside filesystem's file_lock implementations
because that can produce deadlocks. We used to make sure of this by
only trusting that posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking
lock calls asynchronously, so the lock managers would only setup
their file_lock requests for async callbacks if the filesystem did
not define its own lock() file operation
However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started
signalling this behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check
for also trusting posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so
now most filesystems no longer produce lock notifications when
exported over NFS
Fix this by using an fop_flag which greatly simplifies the problem
and grooms the way for future uses by both filesystems and lock
managers alike
- Add a sysctl to delete the dentry when a file is removed instead of
making it a negative dentry
Commit 681ce8623567 ("vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
deleting a file") introduced an unconditional deletion of the
associated dentry when a file is removed. However, this led to
performance regressions in specific benchmarks, such as
ilebench.sum_operations/s, prompting a revert in commit
4a4be1ad3a6e ("Revert "vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
deleting a file""). This reintroduces the concept conditionally
through a sysctl
- Expand the statmount() system call:
* Report the filesystem subtype in a new fs_subtype field to
e.g., report fuse filesystem subtypes
* Report the superblock source in a new sb_source field
* Add a new way to return filesystem specific mount options in an
option array that returns filesystem specific mount options
separated by zero bytes and unescaped. This allows caller's to
retrieve filesystem specific mount options and immediately pass
them to e.g., fsconfig() without having to unescape or split
them
* Report security (LSM) specific mount options in a separate
security option array. We don't lump them together with
filesystem specific mount options as security mount options are
generic and most users aren't interested in them
The format is the same as for the filesystem specific mount
option array
- Support relative paths in fsconfig()'s FSCONFIG_SET_STRING command
- Optimize acl_permission_check() to avoid costly {g,u}id ownership
checks if possible
- Use smp_mb__after_spinlock() to avoid full smp_mb() in evict()
- Add synchronous wakeup support for ep_poll_callback.
Currently, epoll only uses wake_up() to wake up task. But sometimes
there are epoll users which want to use the synchronous wakeup flag
to give a hint to the scheduler, e.g., the Android binder driver.
So add a wake_up_sync() define, and use wake_up_sync() when sync is
true in ep_poll_callback()
Fixes:
- Fix kernel documentation for inode_insert5() and iget5_locked()
- Annotate racy epoll check on file->f_ep
- Make F_DUPFD_QUERY associative
- Avoid filename buffer overrun in initramfs
- Don't let statmount() return empty strings
- Add a cond_resched() to dump_user_range() to avoid hogging the CPU
- Don't query the device logical blocksize multiple times for hfsplus
- Make filemap_read() check that the offset is positive or zero
Cleanups:
- Various typo fixes
- Cleanup wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode()
- Add __releases annotation to wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode()
- Add hugetlbfs tracepoints
- Fix various vfs kernel doc parameters
- Remove obsolete TODO comment from io_cancel()
- Convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner() to take a folio
- Fix comments for BANDWITH_INTERVAL and wb_domain_writeout_add()
- Reorder struct posix_acl to save 8 bytes

The initramfs filename field is defined in
Documentation/driver-api/early-userspace/buffer-format.rst as:
37 cpio_file := ALGN(4) + cpio_header + filename + "\0" + ALGN(4) + data
...
55 ============= ================== =========================
56 Field name Field size Meaning
57 ============= ================== =========================
...
70 c_namesize 8 bytes Length of filename, including final \0
When extracting an initramfs cpio archive, the kernel's do_name() path
handler assumes a zero-terminated path at @collected, passing it
directly to filp_open() / init_mkdir() / init_mknod().
If a specially crafted cpio entry carries a non-zero-terminated filename
and is followed by uninitialized memory, then a file may be created with
trailing characters that represent the uninitialized memory. The ability
to create an initramfs entry would imply already having full control of
the system, so the buffer overrun shouldn't be considered a security
vulnerability.
Append the output of the following bash script to an existing initramfs
and observe any created /initramfs_test_fname_overrunAA* path. E.g.
./reproducer.sh | gzip >> /myinitramfs
It's easiest to observe non-zero uninitialized memory when the output is
gzipped, as it'll overflow the heap allocated @out_buf in __gunzip(),
rather than the initrd_start+initrd_size block.

The HAVE_CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option has some tricky conditions
when KASAN or GCOV are turned on, as in that case we need some clang and
rustc fixes [1][2] to avoid boot failures. The intent with the current
setup is that you should be able to override the check and turn on the
option if your clang/rustc has the fix. However, this override does not
work in practice. Thus, use the new RUSTC_LLVM_VERSION to correctly
implement the check for whether the fix is available.
Additionally, remove KASAN_HW_TAGS from the list of incompatible
options. The CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option is incompatible with
KASAN because LLVM will emit some constructors when using KASAN that are
assigned incorrect CFI tags. These constructors are emitted due to use
of -fsanitize=kernel-address or -fsanitize=kernel-hwaddress that are
respectively passed when KASAN_GENERIC or KASAN_SW_TAGS are enabled.
However, the KASAN_HW_TAGS option relies on hardware support for MTE
instead and does not pass either flag. (Note also that KASAN_HW_TAGS
does not `select CONSTRUCTORS`.)

Use Tasks Trace RCU to protect iteration of system call enter/exit
tracepoint probes to allow those probes to handle page faults.
In preparation for this change, all tracers registering to system call
enter/exit tracepoints should expect those to be called with preemption

This allows tracers to fault-in userspace system call arguments such as
path strings within their probe callbacks.

Today we are proxying the `console=` command line args to the
`param_setup_earlycon()` handler. This is done because the following are
equivalent:
console=uart[8250],mmio,<addr>[,options]
earlycon=uart[8250],mmio,<addr>[,options]
Both invocations enable an early `bootconsole`. `console=uartXXXX` is
just an alias for `earlycon=uartXXXX`.
In addition, when `earlycon=` (empty value) or just `earlycon`
(no value) is specified on the command line, we enable the earlycon
`bootconsole` specified by the SPCR table or the DT.
The problem arises when `console=` (empty value) is specified on the
command line. It's intention is to disable the `console`, but what
happens instead is that the SPRC/DT console gets enabled.
This happens because we are proxying the `console=` (empty value)
parameter to the `earlycon` handler. The `earlycon` handler then sees
that the parameter value is empty, so it enables the SPCR/DT
`bootconsole`.
This change makes it so that the `console` or `console=` parameters no
longer enable the SPCR/DT `bootconsole`. I also cleans up the hack in
`main.c` that would forward the `console` parameter to the `earlycon`
handler.

There is a bug in the LLVM implementation of KASAN and GCOV that makes
these options incompatible with the CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option.
The bug has already been fixed in llvm/clang [1] and rustc [2]. However,
Kconfig currently has no way to gate features on the LLVM version inside
rustc, so we cannot write down a precise `depends on` clause in this
case. Instead, a `def_bool` option is defined for whether
CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS is available, and its default value is set
to false when GCOV or KASAN are turned on. End users using a patched
clang/rustc can turn on the HAVE_CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option
directly to override this.
An alternative solution is to inspect a binary created by clang or rustc
to see whether the faulty CFI tags are in the binary. This would be a
precise check, but it would involve hard-coding the *hashed* version of
the CFI tag. This is because there's no way to get clang or rustc to
output the unhased version of the CFI tag. Relying on the precise
hashing algorithm using by CFI seems too fragile, so I have not pursued
this option. Besides, this kind of hack is exactly what lead to the LLVM
bug in the first place.
If the CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option is used without CONFIG_RUST,
then we actually can perform a precise check today: just compare the
clang version number. This works since clang and llvm are always updated
in lockstep. However, encoding this in Kconfig would give the
HAVE_CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option a dependency on CONFIG_RUST,
which is not possible as the reverse dependency already exists.
HAVE_CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS is defined to be a `def_bool` instead
of `bool` to avoid asking end users whether they want to turn on the
option. Turning it on explicitly is something only experts should do, so
making it hard to do so is not an issue.
I added a `depends on CFI_CLANG` clause to the new Kconfig option. I'm
not sure whether that makes sense or not, but it doesn't seem to make a
big difference.
In a future kernel release, I would like to add a Kconfig option similar
to CLANG_VERSION/RUSTC_VERSION for inspecting the version of the LLVM
inside rustc. Once that feature lands, this logic will be replaced with
a precise version check. This check is not being introduced here to
avoid introducing a new _VERSION constant in a fix.

When enabling both KASAN and RETHUNK, objtool emits the following
warnings:
rust/core.o: warning: objtool: asan.module_ctor+0x13: 'naked' return found in MITIGATION_RETHUNK build
rust/core.o: warning: objtool: asan.module_dtor+0x13: 'naked' return found in MITIGATION_RETHUNK build
This is caused by the -Zfunction-return=thunk-extern flag in rustc not
informing LLVM about the mitigation at the module level (it does so at
the function level only currently, which covers most cases, but both
are required), which means that the KASAN functions asan.module_ctor
and asan.module_dtor are generated without the rethunk mitigation.
The other mitigations that we enabled for Rust (SLS, RETPOLINE) do not
have the same bug, as they're being applied through the target-feature
functionality instead.
This is being fixed for rustc 1.83.0, so update Kconfig to reject this
configuration on older compilers.

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Support 'MITIGATION_{RETHUNK,RETPOLINE,SLS}' (which cleans up
objtool warnings), teach objtool about 'noreturn' Rust symbols and
mimic '___ADDRESSABLE()' for 'module_{init,exit}'. With that, we
should be objtool-warning-free, so enable it to run for all Rust
object files.
- KASAN (no 'SW_TAGS'), KCFI and shadow call sanitizer support.
- Support 'RUSTC_VERSION', including re-config and re-build on
change.
- Split helpers file into several files in a folder, to avoid
conflicts in it. Eventually those files will be moved to the right
places with the new build system. In addition, remove the need to
manually export the symbols defined there, reusing existing
machinery for that.
- Relax restriction on configurations with Rust + GCC plugins to just
the RANDSTRUCT plugin.
'kernel' crate:
- New 'list' module: doubly-linked linked list for use with reference
counted values, which is heavily used by the upcoming Rust Binder.
This includes 'ListArc' (a wrapper around 'Arc' that is guaranteed
unique for the given ID), 'AtomicTracker' (tracks whether a
'ListArc' exists using an atomic), 'ListLinks' (the prev/next
pointers for an item in a linked list), 'List' (the linked list
itself), 'Iter' (an iterator over a 'List'), 'Cursor' (a cursor
into a 'List' that allows to remove elements), 'ListArcField' (a
field exclusively owned by a 'ListArc'), as well as support for
heterogeneous lists.
- New 'rbtree' module: red-black tree abstractions used by the
upcoming Rust Binder.
This includes 'RBTree' (the red-black tree itself), 'RBTreeNode' (a
node), 'RBTreeNodeReservation' (a memory reservation for a node),
'Iter' and 'IterMut' (immutable and mutable iterators), 'Cursor'
(bidirectional cursor that allows to remove elements), as well as
an entry API similar to the Rust standard library one.
- 'init' module: add 'write_[pin_]init' methods and the
'InPlaceWrite' trait. Add the 'assert_pinned!' macro.
- 'sync' module: implement the 'InPlaceInit' trait for 'Arc' by
introducing an associated type in the trait.
- 'alloc' module: add 'drop_contents' method to 'BoxExt'.
- 'types' module: implement the 'ForeignOwnable' trait for
'Pin<Box<T>>' and improve the trait's documentation. In addition,
add the 'into_raw' method to the 'ARef' type.
- 'error' module: in preparation for the upcoming Rust support for
32-bit architectures, like arm, locally allow Clippy lint for
those.
Documentation:
- https://rust.docs.kernel.org has been announced, so link to it.
- Enable rustdoc's "jump to definition" feature, making its output a
bit closer to the experience in a cross-referencer.
- Debian Testing now also provides recent Rust releases (outside of
the freeze period), so add it to the list.
