3 daysbpf: Fix tracing of kfuncs with implicit argsIhor Solodrai2-13/+82
A kfunc marked with KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS flag takes implicit arguments (such as bpf_prog_aux) that the verifier injects at load time. resolve_btfids strips those from the kfunc's BTF-visible prototype and keeps the real kernel ABI in a counterpart _impl prototype [1]. fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/fsession programs may attach to the BPF kernel functions, including those with implicit args. However bpf_check_attach_target() and bpf_check_attach_btf_id_multi() extract the struct btf_func_model from the wrong BTF prototype of the kfunc. The btf_func_model is later read to construct the trampoline, which then causes the injected implicit argument to be clobbered and the kfunc dereferencing garbage. Add btf_attach_func_proto() to resolve the real ABI prototype of the kfunc the way the call site does: by looking up the _impl prototype for a KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS kfunc. Use it at both attach-target model construction sites. To enable this, make two supporting changes: * pass bpf_verifier_log instead of bpf_verifier_env to find_kfunc_impl_proto(), so it can be reused from the attach path * add btf_kfunc_check_flag() to test a flag across all of a kfunc's hook sets, because a program attaching to a kfunc is not in the kfunc's call-set KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS must be consistent across the sets, so btf_kfunc_check_flag() returns -EINVAL on inconsistency. btf_kfunc_check_flag() reads the kfunc's flags from the target's kfunc_set_tab. For a module BTF that table is stable only after the module is live, so take a module reference around the read, mirroring how the kfunc call path gates the same lookup with btf_try_get_module(). The remaining call sites of btf_distill_func_proto() are safe as is. The BPF_TRACE_ITER case distills a registered iterator's prototype, and bpf_struct_ops_desc_init() distills the function-pointer members of a struct_ops type. Neither is a kfunc, and so can't have implicit arguments.

4 daysbpf: Reject negative const offsets for buffer pointersSun Jian1-12/+19
The verifier rejects variable offsets for PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER and PTR_TO_BUF accesses, but it currently accepts a constant negative offset produced by pointer arithmetic. Commit 022ac0750883 ("bpf: use reg->var_off instead of reg->off for pointers") moved constant pointer offsets from reg->off to reg->var_off. However, __check_buffer_access() continued to check only the instruction offset. An access with reg->var_off equal to -8 and an instruction offset of zero therefore passes verification. For writable raw tracepoints, the access end is also calculated from the unsigned reg->var_off.value. An eight-byte access starting at -8 wraps the calculated end to zero, allowing the program to load and attach without increasing max_tp_access. After ensuring that reg->var_off is constant, calculate the effective access start using signed arithmetic and reject it when it is negative. Use the validated start to calculate the access end for both PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER and PTR_TO_BUF.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Free field in error path of synthetic event parse In __create_synth_event() the field was allocated but was not freed in the error path - Fix ring_buffer_event_length() on 8 byte aligned architectures On architectures with CONFIG_HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS set to y, the ring_buffer_event_length() may return the wrong size. This is because archs with that config set will always use the "big event meta header" as that is 8 bytes keeping the payload 8 bytes aligned, even when a 4 byte header could hold the size of the event But ring_buffer_event_length() doesn't take this into account and only subtracts 4 bytes for the meta header in the length when it should have subtracted 8 bytes - Have osnoise wait for a full rcu synchronization on unregister osnoise_unregister_instance() used to call synchronize_rcu() before freeing its copy of the instance but was switched to kfree_rcu(). The osniose tracer has code that traverses the instances that it uses, and inst is just a pointer to that instance. By using kfree_rcu() instead of synchronize_rcu(), the instance that the inst pointer is pointing to can be freed while the osnoise code is still referencing it That is, a rmdir on an instance first unregisters the tracer. When the unregister finishes, the rmdir expects that the tracer is finished with the instance that it is using. By putting back the synchronize_rcu() in osnoise_unregister_instance() the unregistering of osnoise will now return when all the users of the instance have finished - Remove an unused setting of "ret" in tracing_set_tracer() - Fix ring_buffer_read_page() copying events The commit that changed ring_buffer_read_page() to show dropped events from the buffer itself, split the "commit" variable between the commit value (with flags) and "size" that holds the size of the sub-buffer. A cut and paste error changed the test of the reading from checking the size of the buffer to the size of the event causing reads to only read one event at a time - Make tracepoint_printk a static variable When the tracing sysctl knobs were move from sysctl.c to trace.c, the variable tracepoint_printk no longer needed to be global. Make it static - Fix some typos - Fix NULL pointer dereference in func_set_flag() The flags update of the function tracer first checks if the value of the flag is the same and exits if they are, and then it checks if the current tracer is the function tracer and exits if it isn't. The problem is that these checks need to be in a reversed order, as if the tracer isn't the function tracer, then the flag being checked may not exist. Reverse the order of these checks - Fix ufs core trace events to not dereference a pointer in TP_printk() The TP_printk() part of the TRACE_EVENT() macro is called when the user reads the "trace" file. This can be seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, and even months after the data was recorded into the ring buffer. Thus, saving a pointer to an object into the ring buffer and then dereferencing it from TP_printk() can cause harm as the object the pointer is pointing to may no longer exist Fix all the trace events in ufs core to save the device name in the ring buffer instead of dereferencing the device descriptor from TP_printk() - Prevent out-of-bound reads in glob matching of trace events The filter logic of events allows simple glob logic to add wild cards to filter on strings. But some events have fields that may not have a terminating 'nul' character. This may cause the glob matching to go beyond the string. Change the logic to always pass in the length of the field that is being matched - Add no-rcu-check version of trace_##event##_enabled() The trace_##event##_enabled() usually wraps trace events to do extra work that is only needed when the trace event is enabled. But this can hide events that are placed in locations where RCU is not watching, and can make lockdep not see these bugs when the event is not enabled The trace_##event##_enabled() was updated to always test to make sure RCU is watching to catch locations that may call events without RCU being active This caused a false positive for the irq_disabled() and related events. As that use trace_irq_disabled_enabled() to force RCU to be watching when the event is enabled via the ct_irq_enter() function, calls the event, and then calls ct_irq_exit() to put RCU back to its original state The trace_irq_disabled_enabled() should not trigger a warning when RCU is not watching because the code within its block handles the case properly. Make a __trace_##event##_enabled() version for this event to use that doesn't check RCU is watching as it handles the case when it isn't - Fix use-after-free in user_event_mm_dup() When the enabler is removed from the link list, it is freed immediately. But it is protected via RCU and needs to be freed after an RCU grace period. Use queue_rcu_work() so that the event_mutex can also be taken as user_event_put() takes the mutex on the last reference is released - Free type string in error path of parse_synth_field() There's an error path in parse_synth_field() where the allocated type string is not freed - Add selftest that tests deferred event teardown - Fix leak in error path of trace_remote_alloc_buffer() If page allocation fails, the desc->nr_cpus is not incremented for the current CPU and the allocations done for it are not freed - Fix allocation length in trace_remote_alloc_buffer() The logic to calculate the struct_len was doing a double count and setting the value too large.

9 dayssched_ext: Skip ops.set_weight() for disabled tasksKuba Piecuch1-0/+11
When switching a task's sched_class away from sched_ext, we get the following sequence of events in __sched_setscheduler(): sched_change_begin() switched_from_scx() scx_disable_task(p) ops.disable(p) __setscheduler_params() set_load_weight() reweight_task_scx(p) ops.set_weight(p) p->sched_class = next_class; sched_change_end() ... Notably, ops.set_weight() is called _after_ ops.disable(). This violates the expected semantics of the callbacks, the expectation being that ops.disable() can only be followed by ops.exit_task() or ops.enable(). Skipping the weight adjustment for disabled tasks should be harmless since the weight will be recalculated in scx_enable_task() if the task ever rejoins SCX.

9 daysperf/aux: Fix page UAF in map_range()Lee Jia Jie1-0/+2
map_range() reads rb->aux_pages[], rb->aux_nr_pages and rb->aux_pgoff via perf_mmap_to_page() while holding only event->mmap_mutex. Those fields are serialized by rb->aux_mutex, and mmap_mutex is per event. Thus, two events sharing one rb via PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT can race rb_alloc_aux() with map_range(), leading to a page-UAF scenario as follows: CPU 0 CPU 1 ===== ===== rb_alloc_aux() map_range() [1]: allocate rb->aux_pages[0] [2]: rb->aux_nr_pages++ [3]: perf_mmap_to_page() returns rb->aux_pages[0] [4]: map it as VM_PFNMAP [5]: rb->aux_pgoff = 1 munmap the page [6]: free rb->aux_pages[0] Pages mapped as VM_PFNMAP have no refcount protection, so CPU 1 holds a mapping to a freed physical frame.

10 dayssched_ext: Fix premature ops->priv publication in scx_alloc_and_add_sched()Tejun Heo1-6/+12
scx_alloc_and_add_sched() publishes @sch through ops->priv before allocating the cgroup path. If that allocation fails, the unwind path clears ops->priv and frees @sch immediately. scx_prog_sched() callers can dereference ops->priv from RCU context the moment it is set, so freeing without a grace period can use-after-free a concurrent kfunc caller. Move the publication below the cgroup path allocation so that every failure path after publication frees @sch through kobject_put(), whose release path defers the freeing by a grace period.

11 dayssched_ext: Enable tick for finite slices on nohz_fullAndrea Righi1-12/+35
set_next_task_scx() updates the tick dependency before __schedule() updates rq->curr. When switching from a non-EXT task, such as idle, to an EXT task with a finite slice, sched_update_tick_dependency() checks the outgoing task and can allow the tick to remain stopped. The dependency can also be lost without a slice-type transition. After a finite-slice task leaves the CPU idle, the enqueue path can clear the dependency against the idle rq->curr. SCX_RQ_CAN_STOP_TICK still records a finite slice, so another finite task skips the transition block and can run without the ticks needed to expire its slice. The reverse mismatch can also happen when the last finite-slice EXT task is dequeued: sub_nr_running() updates the dependency before rq->curr changes, so the outgoing task state can keep the dependency set after the CPU goes idle. Fix this by unconditionally enabling the scheduler tick whenever a finite-slice EXT task is selected on a nohz_full CPU. Moreover, when the last runnable EXT task leaves, ignore the outgoing EXT slice state so the generic scheduler can correctly re-evaluate and clear the tick dependency.

dispatch_to_local_dsq() can run from scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local() while ops.dispatch() has recorded the current rq. Moving a task to a local DSQ may switch to the source or destination rq before synchronously invoking ops.dequeue() through the following path: SCX_CALL_OP(dispatch, rq) ops.dispatch() scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local() scx_flush_dispatch_buf() finish_dispatch() dispatch_to_local_dsq() scx_dispatch_enqueue() local_dsq_post_enq() call_task_dequeue() SCX_CALL_OP_TASK(dequeue, locked_rq, ...)

12 daystracing/user_events: Fix use-after-free in user_event_mm_dup()Michael Bommarito1-7/+32
user_event_mm_dup() walks the parent mm's enabler list locklessly under rcu_read_lock() during fork() (from copy_process()); it does not take event_mutex: rcu_read_lock(); list_for_each_entry_rcu(enabler, &old_mm->enablers, mm_enablers_link) enabler->event = user_event_get(orig->event); user_event_enabler_destroy() removes an enabler from that list with list_del_rcu() and then, without waiting for a grace period, drops the enabler's user_event reference with user_event_put() and frees the enabler with kfree(). A reader that loaded the enabler before the list_del_rcu() can still be walking it, which leads to two use-after-frees: - kfree(enabler) frees the enabler while that reader dereferences enabler->event. - user_event_put() may drop the last reference to the user_event, which is then freed (via delayed_destroy_user_event() on a work queue), while the same reader does user_event_get(orig->event) on it. Both are reachable by an unprivileged task that can open user_events_data: one multithreaded process that registers an enabler and then concurrently unregisters it and calls fork() triggers the race. KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free in user_event_mm_dup() during clone(), with a "refcount_t: addition on 0" warning when the user_event is freed. The enabler use-after-free was found first; the user_event one was reported by XIAO WU, and the earlier enabler-only fix did not address it. Defer both the user_event_put() and the kfree(enabler) to a work item queued with queue_rcu_work(), so they run only after an RCU grace period, once all readers walking the enabler list have finished. The put must run in process context because user_event_put() takes event_mutex on the last reference, so a work queue is used rather than call_rcu(). The now-unlocked put lets the locked argument of user_event_enabler_destroy() be removed; all callers are updated.

12 daystracing: Add a no-rcu-check version of trace_##event##_enabled()Steven Rostedt1-1/+1
Tracepoints require that RCU is watching. To prevent them from being used in places that RCU is not watching, the trace_##event() macro always calls rcu_is_watching() even when the event is not enabled and warns if RCU is not watching. This is to make sure a warning is triggered even if the tracepoint is never enabled (as it is only a bug when it is). It was noticed that tracepoints could be hidden within trace_#event#_enabled() calls, which are used to do extra work for the tracepoint only if the tracepoint is enabled. But this also can hide the fact that a tracepoint is placed in a location that can be called when RCU is not watching. Commit 9764e731ef6ab ("tracepoint: Add lockdep rcu_is_watching() check to trace_##name##_enabled()") added a check to the trace_##event##_enabled() macro to make sure RCU is watching when it is called to make sure not to hide the bug of a tracepoint being called when RCU is not watching. There is one case in the irq_disable tracepoint where it is within a trace_irq_disable_enabled() block, but it checks if RCU is watching, and if it isn't, it makes a call to ct_irq_enter() that makes RCU watch again. But because trace_irq_disable_enabled() now checks if RCU is watching and will trigger if it isn't. This is a false warning as the code within the block handles this case. Add a new internal macro __trace_##event##_enabled() that doesn't check if RCU is watching, and convert the irq_enable/disable tracepoints over to it.

12 daystracing: Prevent out-of-bounds read in glob matchingHuihui Huang1-4/+2
String event fields are not necessarily NUL-terminated, so the filter predicate functions (filter_pred_string(), filter_pred_strloc() and filter_pred_strrelloc()) pass the field length to the regex match callbacks, and the length-aware matchers honour it. regex_match_glob() was the exception: it ignored the length and called glob_match(), which scans the string until it hits a NUL byte. Some string fields are not NUL-terminated. One example is the dynamic char array of the xfs_* namespace tracepoints, which is copied without a trailing NUL. For such a field, glob matching reads past the end of the event field, causing a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read in glob_match(), reached via regex_match_glob() and filter_match_preds() from the xfs_lookup tracepoint. Add a length-bounded glob_match_len() and use it from regex_match_glob() so glob matching always stops at the field boundary. The matching loop is factored into a shared helper so glob_match() keeps its behaviour.

12 daystracing: Fix NULL pointer dereference in func_set_flag()Yuanhe Shu1-4/+4
func_set_flag() dereferences tr->current_trace_flags before verifying that the current tracer is actually the function tracer. When the active tracer has been switched away from "function" (e.g., to "wakeup_rt"), tr->current_trace_flags can be NULL, leading to a NULL pointer dereference and kernel crash. The call chain that triggers this is: trace_options_write() -> __set_tracer_option() -> trace->set_flag() /* func_set_flag */ In func_set_flag(), the first operation is: if (!!set == !!(tr->current_trace_flags->val & bit)) This dereferences tr->current_trace_flags unconditionally. The safety check that guards against a non-function tracer: if (tr->current_trace != &function_trace) return 0; is placed *after* the dereference, which is too late. This was observed with the following crash dump: BUG: unable to handle page fault at 0000000000000000 RIP: func_set_flag+0xd Call Trace: __set_tracer_option+0x27 trace_options_write+0x75 vfs_write+0x12a ksys_write+0x66 do_syscall_64+0x5b RIP: ffffffff914c973d RSP: ff67ec88b01dfdf0 RFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ff3a826e80354580 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffffffff93918080 The disassembly confirms the fault: func_set_flag+0: mov 0x1f08(%rdi), %rax ; RAX = tr->current_trace_flags = NULL func_set_flag+13: mov (%rax), %eax ; page fault: dereference NULL At the time of the crash: tr->current_trace_flags = 0x0 (NULL) tr->current_trace = wakeup_rt_tracer (not function_trace) The scenario is that a process opens a function tracer option file (such as "func_stack_trace"), then the current tracer is switched to another tracer (e.g., "wakeup_rt"), which sets current_trace_flags to NULL. When the process subsequently writes to the option file, func_set_flag() is invoked and crashes on the NULL dereference. Fix this by moving the current_trace check before the current_trace_flags dereference, so that func_set_flag() returns early when the function tracer is not active.

12 daysring-buffer: Fix ring_buffer_read_page() copying only one event per pageDavid Carlier1-1/+1
Commit 8928e4a3be34 ("ring-buffer: Show persistent buffer dropped events in trace_pipe file") split the "commit" variable in ring_buffer_read_page() into "commit" (raw) and "size" (masked page size), but the inner copy loop's terminator was changed to compare rpos against "event_size" instead of "size". rpos is the cumulative read offset within the page; event_size is the length of the single event just copied. The loop thus breaks after the first event, so only one event is copied per call. This regresses the per-event memcpy path (partial reads, the active commit page, and mapped/remote buffers) used by splice/trace_pipe_raw and mmap consumers into a one-event-at-a-time read. Compare rpos against the page size as the original code did.

13 dayscgroup/cpuset: rebind mm mempolicy to effective_mems, not mems_allowedFarhad Alemi1-1/+6
Creating a child cpuset where cpuset.mems is never set leads to a div/0 when a VMA mempolicy with MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES rebinds in response to a CPU hotplug event. Reproduction steps: 1) Create a cgroup w/ cpuset controls (do not set cpuset.mems) 2) Move the task into the child cpuset 3) Create a VMA mempolicy for that task with MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES 4) unplug and hotplug a cpu echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online 5) mempolicy rebind does a div/0 in mpol_relative_nodemask on the call to __nodes_fold() The cpuset code passes (cs->mems_allowed) which is not guaranteed to have nodes to the rebind routine. Use cs->effective_mems instead, which is guaranteed to have a non-empty nodemask once we reach that code path.

13 daysring-buffer: Fix event length with forced 8-byte alignmentHui Wang1-1/+2
When RB_FORCE_8BYTE_ALIGNMENT is true, rb_calculate_event_length() reserves the space of event->array[0] for placing the data length and rb_update_event() stores the data length in event->array[0] accordingly. As a result the whole event length will add extra 4 bytes for sizeof(event.array[0]) unconditionally. But ring_buffer_event_length() only subtracts the sizeof(event->array[0]) for events larger than RB_MAX_SMALL_DATA + sizeof(event->array[0]). As a result, small events on architectures with RB_FORCE_8BYTE_ALIGNMENT=true report a data length that is 4 bytes larger than expected. To fix it, add the RB_FORCE_8BYTE_ALIGNMENT as a condition to subtract the size of that length field whenever RB_FORCE_8BYTE_ALIGNMENT is true. This issue is observed in a riscv64 kernel with CONFIG_HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS set to y, when we run ftrace selftest trace_marker_raw.tc, we get the weird log: for cases where the id is 1..100, the number of data field is 8*N, but once id exceeds 100, the number of data field becomes 8*N+4: # 1 buf: 58 00 00 00 80 5e d1 63 (number of data field is 8*1) ... # a buf: 58 ... (number of data field is 8*2) ... # 64 buf: 58 ... (number of data field is 8*13) # 65 buf: 58 ... (number of data field is 8*13+4) After applying this change, the number of data field keeps being 8*N+4 consistently.

2026-07-05posix-cpu-timers: Prevent UAF caused by non-leader exec() raceThomas Gleixner3-60/+130
Wongi and Jungwoo decoded and reported a non-leader exec() related race which can result in an UAF: sys_timer_delete() exec() posix_cpu_timer_del() // Observes old leader p = pid_task(pid, pid_type); de_thread() switch_leader(); release_task(old_leader) __exit_signal(old_leader) sighand = lock(old_leader, sighand); posix_cpu_timers*_exit(); sighand = lock_task_sighand(p) unhash_task(old_leader); sh = lock(p, sighand) old_leader->sighand = NULL; unlock(sighand); (p->sighand == NULL) unlock(sh) return NULL; // Returns without action if(!sighand) return 0; free_posix_timer(); This is "harmless" unless the deleted timer was armed and enqueued in p->signal because on exec() a TGID targeted timer is inherited. As sys_timer_delete() freed the underlying posix timer object run_posix_cpu_timers() or any timerqueue related add/delete operations on other timers will access the freed object's timerqueue node, which results in an UAF. There is a similar problem vs. posix_cpu_timer_set(). For regular posix timers it just transiently returns -ESRCH to user space, but for the use case in do_cpu_nanosleep() it's the same UAF just that the k_itimer is allocated on the stack. Also posix_cpu_timer_rearm() fails to rearm the timer, which means it stops to expire. While debating solutions Frederic pointed out another problem: posix_cpu_timer_del(tmr) __exit_signal(p) posix_cpu_timers*_exit(p); unhash_task(p); p->sighand = NULL; sh = lock_task_sighand(p) sighand = p->sighand; if (!sighand) return NULL; lock(sighand); if (!sh) WARN_ON_ONCE(timer_queued(tmr)); On weakly ordered architectures it is not guaranteed that posix_cpu_timer_del() will observe the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit() when p->sighand is observed as NULL, which means the WARN() can be a false positive. Solve these issues by: 1) Changing the store in __exit_signal() to smp_store_release(). 2) Adding a smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep() into the !sighand path of lock_task_sighand(). 3) Creating a helper function for looking up the task and locking sighand which does not return when sighand == NULL. Instead it retries the task lookup and only if that fails it gives up. 4) Using that helper in the three affected functions. #1/#2 ensures that the reader side which observes sighand == NULL also observes all preceeding stores, i.e. the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit() and the ones in unhash_task(). #3 ensures that the above described non-leader exec() situation is handled gracefully. When the task lookup returns the old leader, but sighand == NULL then it retries. In the non-leader exec() case the subsequent task lookup will observe the new leader due to #1/#2. In normal exit() scenarios the subsequent lookup fails. When the task lookup fails, the function also checks whether the timer is still enqueued and issues a warning if that's the case. Unfortunately there is nothing which can be done about it, but as the task is already not longer visible the timer should not be accessed anymore. This check also requires memory ordering, which is not provided when the first lookup fails. To achieve that the check is preceeded by a smp_rmb() which pairs with the smp_wmb() in write_seqlock() in __exit_signal(). That ensures that the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit() are visible. The history of the non-leader exec() issue goes back to the early days of posix CPU timers, which stored a pointer to the group leader task in the timer. That obviously fails when a non-leader exec() switches the leader. commit e0a70217107e ("posix-cpu-timers: workaround
