84164acba3 nvmet: do not copy beyond sybsysnqn string length
Commit edd17206e3 ("nvmet: remove redundant subsysnqn field from
ctrl") replaced ctrl->subsysnqn with ctrl->subsys->subsysnqn. This
change works as expected because both point to strings with the same
data. However, their memory allocation lengths differ. ctrl->subsysnqn
had the fixed size defined as NVMF_NQN_FILED_LEN, while
ctrl->subsys->subsysnqn has variable length determined by kstrndup().
Due to this difference, KASAN slab-out-of-bounds occurs at memcpy() in
nvmet_passthru_override_id_ctrl() after the commit. The failure can be
recreated by running the blktests test case nvme/033. To prevent such
failures, replace memcpy() with strscpy(), which copies only the string
length and avoids overruns.

cba202aa35 PCI/portdrv: Use bus-type functions
Instead of assigning the probe function for each driver individually, use
.probe() and .remove() from the pci_express bus. Rename the functions for

5473a722f7 selinux: add support for BPF token access control
BPF token support was introduced to allow a privileged process to delegate
limited BPF functionality—such as map creation and program loading—to
an unprivileged process:
  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-security-module/20231130185229.2688956-1-andrii@kernel.org/

This patch adds SELinux support for controlling BPF token access. With
this change, SELinux policies can now enforce constraints on BPF token
usage based on both the delegating (privileged) process and the recipient
(unprivileged) process.

Supported operations currently include:
  - map_create
  - prog_load

High-level workflow:
  1. An unprivileged process creates a VFS context via `fsopen()` and
     obtains a file descriptor.
  2. This descriptor is passed to a privileged process, which configures
     BPF token delegation options and mounts a BPF filesystem.
  3. SELinux records the `creator_sid` of the privileged process during
     mount setup.
  4. The unprivileged process then uses this BPF fs mount to create a
     token and attach it to subsequent BPF syscalls.
  5. During verification of `map_create` and `prog_load`, SELinux uses
     `creator_sid` and the current SID to check policy permissions via:
       avc_has_perm(creator_sid, current_sid, SECCLASS_BPF,
                    BPF__MAP_CREATE, NULL);

The implementation introduces two new permissions:
  - map_create_as
  - prog_load_as

At token creation time, SELinux verifies that the current process has the
appropriate `*_as` permission (depending on the `allowed_cmds` value in
the bpf_token) to act on behalf of the `creator_sid`.

Example SELinux policy:
  allow test_bpf_t self:bpf {
      map_create map_read map_write prog_load prog_run
      map_create_as prog_load_as
  };

Additionally, a new policy capability bpf_token_perms is added to ensure
backward compatibility. If disabled, previous behavior ((checks based on
current process SID)) is preserved.

eebe6446cc perf/core: Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary cross CPU calls
There are typically a lot of PMUs registered, but in many cases only few
of them have an event registered (like the "cpu" PMU in the presence of
the watchdog). As the mutex is already held, it's safe to just check for
existing events before doing the cross CPU call.

This change saves tens of milliseconds from kexec time (perceived as
steal time during a hypervisor host update), with <2ms remaining for
this step in the shutdown. There might be additional potential for
parallelization or we could just disable performance monitoring during
the actual shutdown and be less graceful about it.

a66f6242fb perf vendor events arm64: Remove uncountable events
These events are never countable by the PMU and are only intended to
be used as external inputs to trace. Therefore showing them in 'perf
list' is misleading so remove them.

The generator script doesn't emit these events when used with the new
telemetry-solution input files [1].

'perf list' should only show countable events because there are events
that are sometimes implemented, sometimes countable and sometimes not,
for example TRB_TRIG. If we always include any implemented events
whether they are countable or not then it's not possible to tell whether
they are usable in perf without going to the docs, defeating the point
of 'perf list'.

It's also not useful yet to display implemented events that are not
countable (for help in using trace rather than perf stat), because
PMU_OVFS and PMU_HOVFS are practically always implemented and TRB_TRIG
is always implemented when there is TRBE.

dd9f6d30c6 genirq/cpuhotplug: Notify about affinity changes breaking the affinity mask
During CPU offlining the interrupts affined to that CPU are moved to other
online CPUs, which might break the original affinity mask if the outgoing
CPU was the last online CPU in that mask. This change is not propagated to
irq_desc::affinity_notify(), which leaves users of the affinity notifier
mechanism with stale information.

Avoid this by scheduling affinity change notification work for interrupts
that were affined to the CPU being offlined, if the new target CPU is not
part of the original affinity mask.

Since irq_set_affinity_locked() uses the same logic to schedule affinity
change notification work, split out this logic into a dedicated function
and use that at both places.

[ tglx: Removed the EXPORT(), removed the !SMP stub, moved the prototype,
  	added a lockdep assert instead of a comment, fixed up coding style
  	and name space. Polished and clarified the change log ]

541003b576 rename do_filp_open() to do_file_open()
"filp" thing never made sense; seeing that there are exactly 4 callers
in the entire tree (and it's neither exported nor even declared in
linux/*/*.h), there's no point keeping that ugliness.

FWIW, the 'filp' thing did originate in OSD&I; for some reason Tanenbaum
decided to call the object representing an opened file 'struct filp',
the last letter standing for 'position'.  In all Unices, Linux included,
the corresponding object had always been 'struct file'...

9fa3ec8458 allow incomplete imports of filenames
There are two filename-related problems in io_uring and its
interplay with audit.

Filenames are imported when request is submitted and used when
it is processed.  Unfortunately, the latter may very well
happen in a different thread.  In that case the reference to
filename is put into the wrong audit_context - that of submitting
thread, not the processing one.  Audit logics is called by
the latter, and it really wants to be able to find the names
in audit_context current (== processing) thread.

Another related problem is the headache with refcounts -
normally all references to given struct filename are visible
only to one thread (the one that uses that struct filename).
io_uring violates that - an extra reference is stashed in
audit_context of submitter.  It gets dropped when submitter
returns to userland, which can happen simultaneously with
processing thread deciding to drop the reference it got.

We paper over that by making refcount atomic, but that means
pointless headache for everyone.

Solution: the notion of partially imported filenames.  Namely,
already copied from userland, but *not* exposed to audit yet.

io_uring can create that in submitter thread, and complete the
import (obtaining the usual reference to struct filename) in
processing thread.

Object: struct delayed_filename.

Primitives for working with it:

delayed_getname(&delayed_filename, user_string) - copies the name from
userland, returning 0 and stashing the address of (still incomplete)
struct filename in delayed_filename on success and returning -E... on
error.

delayed_getname_uflags(&delayed_filename, user_string, atflags) -
similar, in the same relation to delayed_getname() as getname_uflags()
is to getname()

complete_getname(&delayed_filename) - completes the import of filename
stashed in delayed_filename and returns struct filename to caller,
emptying delayed_filename.

CLASS(filename_complete_delayed, name)(&delayed_filename) - variant of
CLASS(filename) with complete_getname() for constructor.

dismiss_delayed_filename(&delayed_filename) - destructor; drops whatever
might be stashed in delayed_filename, emptying it.

putname_to_delayed(&delayed_filename, name) - if name is shared, stashes
its copy into delayed_filename and drops the reference to name, otherwise
stashes the name itself in there.

8c888b3190 struct filename: saner handling of long names
Always allocate struct filename from names_cachep, long name or short;
short names would be embedded into struct filename.  Longer ones do
not cannibalize the original struct filename - put them into kmalloc'ed
buffers (PATH_MAX-sized for import from userland, strlen() + 1 - for
ones originating kernel-side, where we know the length beforehand).

Cutoff length for short names is chosen so that struct filename would be
192 bytes long - that's both a multiple of 64 and large enough to cover
the majority of real-world uses.

Simplifies logics in getname()/putname() and friends.

[fixed an embarrassing braino in EMBEDDED_NAME_MAX, first reported by
Dan Carpenter]

c3a3577cdb struct filename: use names_cachep only for getname() and friends
Instances of struct filename come from names_cachep (via
__getname()).  That is done by getname_flags() and getname_kernel()
and these two are the main callers of __getname().  However, there are
other callers that simply want to allocate PATH_MAX bytes for uses that
have nothing to do with struct filename.

	We want saner allocation rules for long pathnames, so that struct
filename would *always* come from names_cachep, with the out-of-line
pathname getting kmalloc'ed.  For that we need to be able to change the
size of objects allocated by getname_flags()/getname_kernel().

	That requires the rest of __getname() users to stop using
names_cachep; we could explicitly switch all of those to kmalloc(),
but that would cause quite a bit of noise.  So the plan is to switch
getname_...() to new helpers and turn __getname() into a wrapper for
kmalloc().  Remaining __getname() users could be converted to explicit
kmalloc() at leisure, hopefully along with figuring out what size do
they really want - PATH_MAX is an overkill for some of them, used out
of laziness ("we have a convenient helper that does 4K allocations and
that's large enough, let's use it").

	As a side benefit, names_cachep is no longer used outside
of fs/namei.c, so we can move it there and be done with that.

8ba29c85e2 getname_flags() massage, part 1
In case of long name don't reread what we'd already copied.
memmove() it instead.  That avoids the possibility of ending
up with empty name there and the need to look at the flags
on the slow path.

ca2a04e84a ntfs: ->d_compare() must not block
... so don't use __getname() there.  Switch it (and ntfs_d_hash(), while
we are at it) to kmalloc(PATH_MAX, GFP_NOWAIT).  Yes, ntfs_d_hash()
almost certainly can do with smaller allocations, but let ntfs folks
deal with that - keep the allocation size as-is for now.

Stop abusing names_cachep in ntfs, period - various uses of that thing
in there have nothing to do with pathnames; just use k[mz]alloc() and
be done with that.  For now let's keep sizes as-in, but AFAICS none of
the users actually want PATH_MAX.

41670a5900 get rid of audit_reusename()
Originally we tried to avoid multiple insertions into audit names array
during retry loop by a cute hack - memorize the userland pointer and
if there already is a match, just grab an extra reference to it.

Cute as it had been, it had problems - two identical pointers had
audit aux entries merged, two identical strings did not.  Having
different behaviour for syscalls that differ only by addresses of
otherwise identical string arguments is obviously wrong - if nothing
else, compiler can decide to merge identical string literals.

Besides, this hack does nothing for non-audited processes - they get
a fresh copy for retry.  It's not time-critical, but having behaviour
subtly differ that way is bogus.

These days we have very few places that import filename more than once
(9 functions total) and it's easy to massage them so we get rid of all
re-imports.  With that done, we don't need audit_reusename() anymore.
There's no need to memorize userland pointer either.

1ee5220eb3 do_readlinkat(): import pathname only once
Take getname_flags() and putname() outside of retry loop.

Since getname_flags() is the only thing that cares about LOOKUP_EMPTY,
don't bother with setting LOOKUP_EMPTY in lookup_flags - just pass it
to getname_flags() and be done with that.

The things could be further simplified by use of cleanup.h stuff, but
let's not clutter the patch with that.

Convert the user_path_at() call inside a retry loop into getname_flags() +
filename_lookup() + putname() and leave only filename_lookup() inside
the loop.

In this case we never pass LOOKUP_EMPTY, so getname_flags() is equivalent
to plain getname().

Convert the user_path_at() call inside a retry loop into getname_flags() +
filename_lookup() + putname() and leave only filename_lookup() inside

Since we have the default logics for use of LOOKUP_EMPTY (passed iff
AT_EMPTY_PATH is present in flags), just use getname_uflags() and
don't bother with setting LOOKUP_EMPTY in lookup_flags - getname_uflags()
will pass the right thing to getname_flags() and filename_lookup()
doesn't care about LOOKUP_EMPTY at all.
