3b4128b9f3 Timers and timekeeping core updates:
- Fix a subtly inconsistency in the timekeeping code, which fails to
     account for the monotonicity adjustment in ntp_error. For small changes
     of the clocksource multiplicator (+/-1) which are typically used by the
     NTP PLL this is hardly to observe. But for larger adjustments,
     e.g. caused by a direct frequency setting through adjtimex() the
     one-time uncompensated offset is significant.
 
     Cure this by adjusting ntp_error with the resulting offset so that the
     discrepancy is smoothed away over time
 
   - Make tick length calculations correct in NTP. The timekeeping core
     takes the quantisation of the clocksource into account when calculating
     the tick length to compensate for the deviation of the nominal
     NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH. While timekeeping gets this right, NTP is not
     aware of that, which means it operates on the nominal value and not on
     the actual value which is determined by the clock source frequency. The
     rounding of a coarse clocksource like the ACPI PM timer results in a
     +127 PPM deviation.
 
     Cure this by exposing the deviation to the NTP code so that it can
     operate on the same data as the timekeeping core. This is purely kernel
     internal. User space still sees the nominal tick lenght via adjtimex().
 
   - The accuracy of the NTP adjustments is fairly approximate as the code
     assumes that the invocations are precisely in NTP interval frequency
     ticks and the final adjustment can over and under-run.
 
     Cure this by adjusting ntp_error by the intended skew on each tick to
     achieve the desired rate.
 
   - Handle the two competing skews of time offset and time adjustment
     correctly by calculating the conflict portion between the skews and
     adjusting both accordingly.
 
   - A set of updates and improvements for the selftests
 
   - The usual small fixes and improvements all over the place

3424d8c18a Generic entry code updates:
- Make syscall user dispatching configurable
 
     Not all architectures can makes use of syscall user dispatching. Allow
     them to disable the feature completely.
 
   - Consolidate stack randomization for the generic entry code and the
     architectures using it.
 
     Stack randomization on syscall entry was sprinkled throughout the
     architecture specific low level entry code and in some cases at the
     wrong points, e.g. before establishing state, which violates the
     non-instrumentable constraints of that code.
 
     Clean this up by integrating stack randomization into the generic entry
     code helpers so that it is invoked at the earliest possible point right
     after establishing state and converting all generic entry code using
     architecture over.
 
   - Clean up the syscall number handling in the generic entry code. It
     works correctly for architectures which have a separate return value
     storage in pt_regs, but fails to distinguish the case where user space
     handed in -1 as syscall number from the case where the entry code
     rejects it by returning -1 to the callers. Aside of that the return
     value functionality of those interfaces is not really intuitive.
 
     Fix this by separating the decision to reject a syscall (user dispatch,
     ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the syscall
     number through these mechanisms.
 
     This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have a
     separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where a
     tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite both
     the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem which
     cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be addressed by
     separating the storage model in the affected architectures.

8915457146 Performance events updates for v7.3:
uprobes updates:
 
  - Patch series to fix a category of bugs with optimized uprobes that
    can clobber the redzone area with call instruction storing return
    address on stack where user code may keep temporary data without
    adjusting RSP. Fix this by moving the optimized uprobes on top of
    10-bytes NOP instruction, so we can squeeze another instruction to
    escape the redzone area before doing the call.
    (Jiri Olsa, Andrii Nakryiko)
 
  - Switch uretprobes_srcu to SRCU-fast-updown, to improve performance
    (Puranjay Mohan)
 
 Intel CPU PMU driver updates:
 
  - Optimize ACR handling in match_prev_assignment() (Dapeng Mi)
  - Patch series to fix various PMU driver bugs and data leaks (Dapeng Mi)
  - Fix Intel PT stop/start with no update (Adrian Hunter)

  driver updates, minor fixes and cleanups of other assorted cpufreq
  drivers, schedutil governor updates, fixes of the Rust bindings, new
  hardware support (IPQ5210 in qcom-nvmem), and some updates of self
  tests related to cpufreq.

  The second largest group of changes are cpuidle updates consisting of
  intel_idle driver updates and ACPI processor idle driver updates, both
  mostly related to ACPI _LPI support.

  There are also updates related to system sleep, mostly in the
  hibernation core code, two operating performance points (OPP) updates,
  one runtime PM framework update, one power capping update, and some
  tools updates including the addition of ACPI CPPC support to cpupower.

  Specifics:

   - Minor fixes and cleanups in assorted cpufreq drivers (Dan
     Carpenter, Guru Das Srinagesh, Haoxiang Li, Karl Mehltretter, Sasha
     Finkelstein, and Pan Chuang)

   - Fix cpufreq table creation and bios_limits() callback in the Rust
     bindings (Priya Bala Govindasamy)

   - Add IPQ5210 support to qcom-nvmem driver (Varadarajan Narayanan)

     maximum performance value to be passed to drivers and update the
     intel_pstate driver to use it (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Set policy->cur to the actual requested frequency in the
     intel_pstate driver when the performance policy is used (Rafael
     Wysocki)

     symbols to the amd-pstate-ut subdriver (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Add dynamic EPP as an "energy_performance_preference" mode in
     amd-pstate, remove the "amd_dynamic_epp" kernel command line option

Pull vfs superblock updates from Christian Brauner:

 - Make it possible to share a block device between multiple
   filesystems.

   erofs can mount read-only blob devices shared between many
   superblocks, but because we only tracked a single superblock a
   freeze, thaw, removal or sync on such a device was never propagated
   to all the superblocks using it, and there was no way to find them.

   Add an efficient table to lookup all superblocks using a given block
   device.

 - A bunch of pre-existing fixes fell out of this work:

   A block-device freeze racing a btrfs device change could leave the
   whole filesystem stuck frozen. A bdev_freeze() issued by "dmsetup
   suspend" or an LVM snapshot resolves that holder to freeze the
   filesystem. and bdev_thaw() resolves it again to thaw. A freeze
   landing while btrfs is adding, removing or replacing a device freezes
   the filesystem. The membership change then drops that link. So the
   matching thaw could no longer find the superblock.

   Forbid freezing a device for the duration of a membership change,
   modelled on deny_write_access()/allow_write_access().

Pull overlayfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This lets the merged overlayfs mount itself be idmapped through
  mount_setattr(MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP), in addition to the already supported
  idmapped lower and upper layers. The same overlay tree can then be
  exposed under a different ownership view.

  Overlayfs already normalizes every underlying id through the relevant
  layer idmap when ovl_copyattr() copies attributes into the overlay
  inode. So the overlay inode's i_uid and i_gid are overlay-final ids.

  The overlay mount idmap composes on top of that and is applied at the
  overlay-inode boundary only while the underlying layers keep being
  accessed with the mounter's credentials through their own (possibly
  idmapped) mounts.

  So this only changes how the caller sees the overlay inode and never
  widens the mounter's access to the layers. The second,
  mounter-credential check in ovl_permission() against the real inode
  stays on the layer idmap.

  Most paths need no change because the VFS applies the mount idmap to
  the overlay inode before overlayfs runs or after it returns at the
  syscall boundary. Overlayfs only has to change where it bypasses the
  generic path.

  This also included is a fix for a double end_creating() on the
  overlayfs casefold-mismatch path"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Bigger cleanups:

   - The lockref dead-count handling is tidied up.

     The open-coded check for a count below zero as the dead marker
     relies on information the caller should not have.

   - make put_mnt_ns() leave mounts connected. Destroying a mount
     namespace disconnected its mounts from their mount points. So a
     file descriptor still open on the parent of a mount point could be
     used to peek under it.

     Locked mounts were already kept connected to prevent exactly that.
     But a mount is only locked when its tree is copied across a user
     namespace boundary. So a mount namespace set up by a privileged
     component had no locked mounts and its mounts were disconnected.
     Passing UMOUNT_CONNECTED keeps every mount connected and prevents
     that bug.

   - vfs_prepare_mode() passes S_IFDIR for directories. I meant to fix
     that ago but didn't get to it. So now someone finally did it.

     This kills the exception where the mode could be 0 when a directory
     was created whereas every other creation operation passed it
     explicitly already.

   - move long delayed work for ufs, jffs2, hfsplus, hfs and affs from
     the per-cpu system_long_wq to the new unbound system_dfl_long_wq.

     None of that work relies on per-cpu state and the work item is
     enqueued with queue_delayed_work() whose timer is global anyway. So
     it may as well benefit from scheduler task placement.

  Smaller fixes and cleanups:

   - unlock_buffer() and journal_end_buffer_io_sync() use
     clear_and_wake_up_bit()

   - the pipe page pools are unified into a single per-pipe pool and the
     extra wake_up(rd_wait) is limited to EPOLLET consumers

   - eventpoll now computes its timer slack lazily in ep_poll()

   - shrink_dcache_for_umount() keeps making progress on busy roots

   - excess xarray nodes are freed in clear_inode()

   - romfs detects hard link cycles

   - the user path of nested backing files is fixed

   - pidfd holds exec_update_lock around the namespace ioctl

   - non-memcg-aware nr_cached_objects is skipped during memcg slab
     shrink

   - iomap_write_iter() always returns status

   - mangle_path() is renamed to seq_mangle_path()

   - inode timestamp accessors are annotated

   - new regression test for pipe->poll_usage.

  empty, immutable directory whose lookups fail with ENOENT but which
  can be opened, read, stat'd and mounted upon. Failfs on the other hand
  fails every operation. The root cannot be opened at all. A single
  instance is mounted during early boot via kern_mount(), which makes it
  logically distinct from every mount namespace.

  This is accompanied by a new fchroot() system call which makes
  chrooting via a file descriptor a first class concept. It's possible
  to chroot into failfs as an unprivileged user provided the task has no
  new privileges set"

Pull binfmt updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains a bunch of work for binfmt_misc. It fixes a bunch of
  old bugs, reworks the locking, and then extends the format registry
  so a binary type can be matched programmatically and its interpreter
  computed per exec instead of being a fixed string recorded at
  registration time.

  This allows nixos and other to e.g., implement relocatable binaries
  meaning the interpreter/dynamic loader can be determined
  programatically, say found relative to the binary. The mechanism is
  flexible and can support other policies:

   - Handler lookup is now an rcu walk. An exec that matches no
     binfmt_misc entry should now never write to a shared cacheline

   - remove the VERBOSE_STATUS and USE_DEBUG compile time toggles

   - convert the entry file to a seq_file which simplifies things quite
     a bit and kills a lot of custom logic

   - make flags proper enums

   - rename struct Node to binfmt_misc_entry

   - allow entries to be removed with unlink(2)

   - Add the ability to attach bpf programs to binfmt_misc entries so
     it's possible to dynamically choose the execution environment such
     as the loader or interpreter on a per binary basis.

     A handler is an instance of a binfmt_misc_ops struct_ops with a
     ->match() and a ->load() program. match() decides from the entry
     lookup walk whether the handler applies under the same
     registration-order. It can read file content as needed not only the
     prefetched 256 bytes in bprm->buf.

     load() then selects the interpreter and stages it through the new
     bpf_binprm_set_interp(), bpf_binprm_set_interp_arg() and
     bpf_binprm_set_flags() kfuncs.

     Handlers are published in a registry keyed by the registering
     task's user namespace and activated through the existing text
     interface with a new 'B' type carrying the handler name:

	echo ':origin:B::::nix:' > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register

     The permission and namespacing model is unchanged. Activating a
     handler requires the same write access to an instance as any other
     registration. A container mounting its own instance escapes the
     host's entries exactly as before. The computed interpreter is
     opened with open_exec() under the caller's credentials and goes
     through full LSM vetting as the next binprm level. A program can
     only ever redirect the caller to something the caller could exec
     anyway.

   - Two dispatch modes are added. So far the chosen interpreter owns
     the whole process identity (argv[0], /proc/pid/cmdline,
     /proc/self/exe all name interpreter information). So relocatable
     find the dynamic linker instead. Also a binary passed to execveat()
     as an inaccessible O_CLOEXEC fd cannot run at all and gdb trips
     because AT_ENTRY and AT_PHDR do not match the exe file. So PIE
     symbols are unrelocated.

     This adds transparent dispatch which allows the interpreter to load
     the binary through AT_EXECFD and leaves the argument vector exactly
     as the caller built it and labels mm->exe_file and comm with the
     binary. It also raises the AT_FLAGS_TRANSPARENT_INTERP aux vector
     bit. The interpreter keeps control of mapping the binary.

     The second mode is loader substitution. This allows a binary to be
     executed natively and only the interpreter to be changed.

   - Last, interpreters can be bound at registration time. Each
     interpreter is opened by its own write with the credentials the
     entry file was opened with. The program picks one per exec with
     bpf_binprm_select_interp().

     Ucounts are used to properly account for pre-opened interpreters
     via /proc/sys/user/max_binfmt_misc_interpreters"

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:

 - Don't warn when a mount is completed from another user namespace.

   fsopen() records the caller's user namespace in fc->user_ns and
   hands back an ordinary file descriptor. The task that calls
   fsconfig(FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE) doesn't have to be the one that
   created the context, and mount_capable() lets it through as long
   as the caller has CAP_SYS_ADMIN over fc->user_ns, which anyone in
   an ancestor namespace does. So fc->user_ns != current_user_ns()
   is something an unprivileged user can arrange.

   Both overlayfs and binfmt_misc WARN_ON() that. Overlayfs already
   has the same check as a plain error return in ovl_parse_param().

   Drop the WARN_ON() and just refuse. Add selftests for both cases.

 - Reject pid allocations through dead ancestor pid namespaces.

   Require PIDNS_ADDING in every namespace that will receive the pid
   before publishing any of them. That preserves the invariant that
   free_pid() never decrements pid_allocated in a namespace whose
   child_reaper is no longer live. The existing ENOMEM behavior is
   unchanged.

selftests/namespaces: Fix racy pipe handshake in timens and pidns_separate
In timens_separate and pidns_separate both the child and the grandchild
write a 'Y' readiness byte to the same pipe, but the parent expects a
single 'Y' followed by the grandchild's pid. If the grandchild's byte
arrives first, the parent takes it for the child's and reads the pid
misaligned, ending up with a garbage value.

The parent stores that pid in self->grandchild_pid so that
FIXTURE_TEARDOWN() can kill the grandchild. A garbage pid leaves the real
grandchild alive in pause(), holding the test runner's TAP pipe open and
hanging the whole collection.

The grandchild has nothing to report, so drop its write() and leave the
child as the sole writer.

However, none of the existing epoll_wakeup_test cases cover this; the
test suite passes even with WRITE_ONCE(pipe->poll_usage, true) removed.

Add a test that writes twice to a pipe and verifies that epoll_wait with
EPOLLET reports data each time. This covers the pipe-specific per-write
wakeup behavior that edge-triggered consumers depend on.

dea754ded9 kunit: tool: fix _list_tests filtering wrong variable when list has TAP prefix
`_list_tests()` runs the kernel to list tests, strips printk timestamp
lines via `extract_tap_lines()`, then drops the dummy TAP header from
the cleaned `lines`.  However the subsequent regex filter mistakenly
operates on the original `output` instead of the cleaned `lines`.  When
the kernel output includes timestamp prefixes (common with UML or slower
setups), e.g.:

  [    0.100000] suite.test1
  [    0.100000] suite.test2

the anchored regex `^[^\s.]+\.[^\s.]+$` rejects them and `--list_tests`
returns an empty list.

Filter `lines` instead of `output`, matching the behavior of the
adjacent `_list_tests_attr()` which already returns the cleaned list.

Add a regression test with timestamp-prefixed input to verify the fix.

8a42229739 selftests: tls: cover splice after a failed decrypt
Nothing in this file splices a socket whose last decrypt failed, so
the check that fails tls_sw_splice_read() on a broken connection can
be removed without a test noticing. Such a splice hands the
application plaintext that recvmsg() and read_sock() already refuse
to return.

Extend the bad_auth pattern. Corrupt an authenticated record, confirm
recvmsg() reports EBADMSG, then splice the same socket and require
EBADMSG again. A synchronous decrypt fails again on the still-queued
record, so only an async decrypt reaches EBADMSG through the
recorded-failure check alone.

bad_auth builds the same corrupted record, so its construction moves
into a helper the two tests share.

f1b3416cea selftests: tc-testing: add act_ct test for malformed header handling
Add a tdc case covering the leak fixed by the previous patch.

The test attaches "action ct" to a clsact ingress chain and injects ten
IPv6 frames whose nexthdr says hop-by-hop but which carry nothing after
the 40-byte header, so ipv6_find_hdr() fails and
tcf_ct_ipv6_is_fragment() returns -EPROTO.

Before the fix act_ct returned TC_ACT_CONSUMED for these packets, so
tc_run() never reached its TC_ACT_SHOT arm and the clsact drop counter
stayed at zero while the skbs leaked. After the fix the packets are
dropped properly and the counter reflects them, which is what the test
matches on:

  before:  Sent 476 bytes 11 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
  after:   Sent 400 bytes 10 pkt (dropped 10, overlimits 0 requeues 0)

selftests/filesystems: test completing a context from another user namespace
fsopen() records the caller's user namespace in fc->user_ns and hands
back an ordinary file descriptor, so the task that issues
FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE need not be the one that created the context.
mount_capable() authorizes that for a caller holding CAP_SYS_ADMIN in an
ancestor of fc->user_ns, which any unprivileged user has over a user
namespace it just created.

binfmt_misc and overlayfs used to WARN_ON() the mismatch. Add a test for
both. Also cover the handover within one user namespace. That is a
supported thing to do and has to keep working.

Reduce NMI_BITS from 4 to 1, using it only to detect if we're in an NMI.

24aa630f62 selftests/ftrace: Convert ELF entry point to file offset in uprobe test
The add_remove_uprobe test uses readelf -h to obtain the ELF entry
point (e_entry) and passes it directly as the offset to uprobe_events.
However, uprobe_events expects a file offset, not a virtual address.

For PIE binaries, the virtual address happens to equal the file offset
because the first LOAD segment has p_vaddr == p_offset, so the test
works by coincidence. But for non-PIE executables, e_entry is an
absolute virtual address that can far exceed the file size. When the
probe is enabled, uprobe_register() checks offset > i_size_read(inode)
and rejects it with -EINVAL.

Fix this by converting the virtual address to a file offset using the
ELF program headers: scan readelf -lW output for the LOAD segment
containing the entry point, then compute file_offset = e_entry -
p_vaddr + p_offset. For PIE binaries the result is unchanged; for
non-PIE binaries the offset is correctly translated.

The conversion uses only POSIX shell primitives, with no dependency on
gawk or perl.

1c8629651c tls: rx: restore msg_iter before TLS 1.3 optimistic retry
tls_decrypt_sg() advances msg->msg_iter when it maps user pages for
the optimistic TLS 1.3 zero-copy path. If the decrypted record turns
out not to be unpadded application data, tls_decrypt_sw() retries into
a kernel skb, but leaves the iterator advanced.

The subsequent copy from the skb then writes decrypted bytes again at
a later point in the caller iovecs while recvmsg() reports only the
post-retry length. A TLS peer can trigger this after the receiver
enables TLS_RX_EXPECT_NO_PAD.

Revert the iterator by the number of bytes consumed by the optimistic
mapping before retrying without zero-copy.

Add a selftest which sends a TLS 1.3 control record with
TLS_RX_EXPECT_NO_PAD enabled and verifies that recvmsg() does not
overwrite later iovecs beyond the returned length.

Splicing onto a plaintext sk_msg ring that is already full used to wrap the
ring and make the kernel oops in the scatterwalk once the record was
pushed.

Only the copy path leaves the ring full without pushing it, so splice until
the ring is one fragment short, add the last fragment with a one-byte
MSG_MORE send, and splice once more before pushing the record.

CONFIG_MAX_SKB_FRAGS is 17..45, so that last fragment follows between 16
and 44 splices; sweep that range to trigger the bug on any build.

ca318e7bbb selftests: mptcp: join: mark tests with data corruption as failed
check_transfer() compares the input and output files byte-by-byte using
`cmp -l "$in" "$out" | while read ...`. Because the while-loop body runs
in a subshell (the script sets neither lastpipe nor pipefail), the
fail_test call inside it -- which sets the global ret/last_test_failed --
and the `return 1` both act on the subshell, not on check_transfer().

check_transfer() thus always falls through to `return 0`, and any data
corruption affecting only the payload (leaving the subflow/PM counters
untouched) is silently reported as PASS.

d8eb9a06b9 selftests/tc-testing: add qdisc hierarchy depth tests
Add tdc coverage for the qdisc hierarchy depth limit.

The tests verify that the deepest allowed hierarchy can still be created
and that adding another child qdisc below it is rejected.

eb78ef9cf7 kselftest/arm64: Fix abi test compilation errors
The arm64 ABI selftests fail to compile due to missing include paths
for kernel headers, causing errors like incomplete type struct sock_filter
and implicit BPF macro declarations.

Add $(KHDR_INCLUDES) and -I$(top_srcdir)/tools/include to CFLAGS
to resolve the header search path. Also remove the hardcoded __NR_write
macro and include <asm/unistd.h> to obtain the correct syscall number.
