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 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmc7kPITHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoZKkD/9OUL6fOJrDUmOYBa4QVeMyfTef4EaL tvwIMM/29XQFeiq3xxCIn+EMnHjXn2lvIhYGQ7GKsbKYwvJ7ZBDpQb+UMhZ2nKI9 6D6BP6WomZohKeH2fZbJQAdqOi3KRYdvQdIsVZUexkqiaVPphRvOH9wOr45gHtZM EyMRSotPlQTDqcrbUejDMEO94GyjDCYXRsyATLxjmTzL/N4xD4NRIiotjM2vL/a9 8MuCgIhrKUEyYlFoOxxeokBsF3kk3/ez2jlG9b/N8VLH3SYIc2zgL58FBgWxlmgG bY71nVG3nUgEjxBd2dcXAVVqvb+5widk8p6O7xxOAQKTLMcJ4H0tQDkMnzBtUzvB DGAJDHAmAr0g+ja9O35Pkhunkh4HYFIbq0Il4d1HMKObhJV0JumcKuQVxrXycdm3 UZfq3seqHsZJQbPgCAhlFU0/2WWScocbee9bNebGT33KVwSp5FoVv89C/6Vjb+vV Gusc3thqrQuMAZW5zV8g4UcBAA/xH4PB0I+vHib+9XPZ4UQ7/6xKl2jE0kd5hX7n AAUeZvFNFqIsY+B6vz+Jx/yzyM7u5cuXq87pof5EHVFzv56lyTp4ToGcOGYRgKH5 JXeYV1OxGziSDrd5vbf9CzdWMzqMvTefXrHbWrjkjhNOe8E1A8O88RZ5uRKZhmSw hZZ4hdM9+3T7cg== =2VC6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'timers-core-2024-11-18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip 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.

A set of updates for the interrupt subsystem:
- Tree wide: * Make nr_irqs static to the core code and provide accessor functions to remove existing and prevent future aliasing problems with local variables or function arguments of the same name. - Core code: * Prevent freeing an interrupt in the devres code which is not managed by devres in the first place. * Use seq_put_decimal_ull_width() for decimal values output in /proc/interrupts which increases performance significantly as it avoids parsing the format strings over and over. * Optimize raising the timer and hrtimer soft interrupts by using the 'set bit only' variants instead of the combined version which checks whether ksoftirqd should be woken up. The latter is a pointless exercise as both soft interrupts are raised in the context of the timer interrupt and therefore never wake up ksoftirqd. * Delegate timer/hrtimer soft interrupt processing to a dedicated thread on RT. Timer and hrtimer soft interrupts are always processed in ksoftirqd on RT enabled kernels. This can lead to high latencies when other soft interrupts are delegated to ksoftirqd as well. The separate thread allows to run them seperately under a RT scheduling policy to reduce the latency overhead. - Drivers: * New drivers or extensions of existing drivers to support Renesas RZ/V2H(P), Aspeed AST27XX, T-HEAD C900 and ATMEL sam9x7 interrupt chips * Support for multi-cluster GICs on MIPS. MIPS CPUs can come with multiple CPU clusters, where each CPU cluster has its own GIC (Generic Interrupt Controller). This requires to access the GIC of a remote cluster through a redirect register block. This is encapsulated into a set of helper functions to keep the complexity out of the actual code paths which handle the GIC details. * Support for encrypted guests in the ARM GICV3 ITS driver The ITS page needs to be shared with the hypervisor and therefore must be decrypted. * Small cleanups and fixes all over the place -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmc7ggcTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoaf7D/9G6FgJXx/60zqnpnOr9Yx0hxjaI47x PFyCd3P05qyVMBYXfI99vrSKuVdMZXJ/fH5L83y+sOaTASyLTzg37igZycIDJzLI FnHh/m/+UA8k2aIC5VUiNAjne2RLaTZiRN15uEHFVjByC5Y+YTlCNUE4BBhg5RfQ hKmskeffWdtui3ou13CSNvbFn+pmqi4g6n1ysUuLhiwM2E5b1rZMprcCOnun/cGP IdUQsODNWTTv9eqPJez985M6A1x2SCGNv7Z73h58B9N0pBRPEC1xnhUnCJ1sA0cJ pnfde2C1lztEjYbwDngy0wgq0P6LINjQ5Ma2YY2F2hTMsXGJxGPDZm24/u5uR46x N/gsOQMXqw6f5yvbiS7Asx9WzR6ry8rJl70QRgTyozz7xxJTaiNm2HqVFe2wc+et Q/BzaKdhmUJj1GMZmqD2rrgwYeDcb4wWYNtwjM4PVHHxYlJVq0mEF1kLLS8YDyjf HuGPVqtSkt3E0+Br3FKcv5ltUQP8clXbudc6L1u98YBfNK12hW8L+c3YSvIiFoYM ZOAeANPM7VtQbP2Jg2q81Dd3CShImt5jqL2um+l8g7+mUE7l9gyuO/w/a5dQ57+b kx7mHHIW2zCeHrkZZbRUYzI2BJfMCCOVN4Ax5OZxTLnLsL9VEehy8NM8QYT4TS8R XmTOYW3U9XR3gw== =JqxC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'irq-core-2024-11-18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Tree wide: - Make nr_irqs static to the core code and provide accessor functions to remove existing and prevent future aliasing problems with local variables or function arguments of the same name.

As atomic_inc_not_zero() is implemented with a try_cmpxchg() loop it has O(N^2) behaviour under contention with N concurrent operations and it is in a hot path in __fget_files_rcu(). The rcuref infrastructures remedies this problem by using an unconditional increment relying on safe- and dead zones to make this work and requiring rcu protection for the data structure in question. This not just scales better it also introduces overflow protection. However, in contrast to generic rcuref, files require a memory barrier and thus cannot rely on *_relaxed() atomic operations and also require to be built on atomic_long_t as having massive amounts of reference isn't unheard of even if it is just an attack. This adds a file specific variant instead of making this a generic library. This has been tested by various people and it gives consistent improvement up to 3-5% on workloads with loads of threads. - Add a fastpath for find_next_zero_bit(). Skip 2-levels searching via find_next_zero_bit() when there is a free slot in the word that contains the next fd. This improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read by 8% and write by 4% on Intel ICX 160. - Conditionally clear full_fds_bits since it's very likely that a bit in full_fds_bits has been cleared during __clear_open_fds(). This improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read up to 13%, and write up to 5% on Intel ICX 160. - Get rid of all lookup_*_fdget_rcu() variants. They were used to lookup files without taking a reference count. That became invalid once files were switched to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and now we're always taking a reference count. Switch to an already existing helper and remove the legacy variants. - Remove pointless includes of <linux/fdtable.h>. - Avoid cmpxchg() in close_files() as nobody else has a reference to the files_struct at that point. - Move close_range() into fs/file.c and fold __close_range() into it. - Cleanup calling conventions of alloc_fdtable() and expand_files(). - Merge __{set,clear}_close_on_exec() into one. - Make __set_open_fd() set cloexec as well instead of doing it in two separate steps" * tag 'vfs-6.13.file' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: selftests: add file SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU recycling stressor fs: port files to file_ref fs: add file_ref expand_files(): simplify calling conventions make __set_open_fd() set cloexec state as well fs: protect backing files with rcu file.c: merge __{set,clear}_close_on_exec() alloc_fdtable(): change calling conventions. fs/file.c: add fast path in find_next_fd() fs/file.c: conditionally clear full_fds fs/file.c: remove sanity_check and add likely/unlikely in alloc_fd() move close_range(2) into fs/file.c, fold __close_range() into it close_files(): don't bother with xchg() remove pointless includes of <linux/fdtable.h> get rid of ...lookup...fdget_rcu() family |

fs/proc/task_mmu: prevent integer overflow in pagemap_scan_get_args()
The "arg->vec_len" variable is a u64 that comes from the user at the start
of the function. The "arg->vec_len * sizeof(struct page_region))"
multiplication can lead to integer wrapping. Use size_mul() to avoid
that.
Also the size_add/mul() functions work on unsigned long so for 32bit
systems we need to ensure that "arg->vec_len" fits in an unsigned long.

proc/softirqs: replace seq_printf with seq_put_decimal_ull_width
seq_printf is costy, on a system with n CPUs, reading /proc/softirqs would yield 10*n decimal values, and the extra cost parsing format string grows linearly with number of cpus. Replace seq_printf with seq_put_decimal_ull_width have significant performance improvement. On an 8CPUs system, reading /proc/softirqs show ~40% performance gain with this patch.

posix-timers: Embed sigqueue in struct k_itimer
To cure the SIG_IGN handling for posix interval timers, the preallocated sigqueue needs to be embedded into struct k_itimer to prevent life time races of all sorts. Now that the prerequisites are in place, embed the sigqueue into struct k_itimer and fixup the relevant usage sites. Aside of preparing for proper SIG_IGN handling, this spares an extra allocation.

fs/proc: fix build with GCC 15 due to -Werror=unterminated-string-initialization
show show_smap_vma_flags() has been a using misspelled initializer in mnemonics[] - it needed to initialize 2 element array of char and it used NUL-padded 2 character string literals (i.e. 3-element initializer). This has been spotted by gcc-15[*]; prior to that gcc quietly dropped the 3rd eleemnt of initializers. To fix this we are increasing the size of mnemonics[] (from mnemonics[BITS_PER_LONG][2] to mnemonics[BITS_PER_LONG][3]) to accomodate the NUL-padded string literals. This also helps us in simplyfying the logic for printing of the flags as instead of printing each character from the mnemonics[], we can just print the mnemonics[] using seq_printf. [*]: fs/proc/task_mmu.c:917:49: error: initializer-string for array of `char' is too long [-Werror=unterminate d-string-initialization] 917 | [0 ...

fs/proc/kcore.c: allow translation of physical memory addresses
When /proc/kcore is read an attempt to read the first two pages results in HW-specific page swap on s390 and another (so called prefix) pages are accessed instead. That leads to a wrong read. Allow architecture-specific translation of memory addresses using kc_xlate_dev_mem_ptr() and kc_unxlate_dev_mem_ptr() callbacks similarily to /dev/mem xlate_dev_mem_ptr() and unxlate_dev_mem_ptr() callbacks. That way an architecture can deal with specific physical memory ranges. Re-use the existing /dev/mem callback implementation on s390, which handles the described prefix pages swapping correctly. For other architectures the default callback is basically NOP. It is expected the condition (vaddr == __va(__pa(vaddr))) always holds true for KCORE_RAM memory type.

get rid of ...lookup...fdget_rcu() family
Once upon a time, predecessors of those used to do file lookup without bumping a refcount, provided that caller held rcu_read_lock() across the lookup and whatever it wanted to read from the struct file found. When struct file allocation switched to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, that stopped being feasible and these primitives started to bump the file refcount for lookup result, requiring the caller to call fput() afterwards. But that turned them pointless - e.g. rcu_read_lock(); file = lookup_fdget_rcu(fd); rcu_read_unlock(); is equivalent to file = fget_raw(fd); and all callers of lookup_fdget_rcu() are of that form. Similarly, task_lookup_fdget_rcu() calls can be replaced with calling fget_task(). task_lookup_next_fdget_rcu() doesn't have direct counterparts, but its callers would be happier if we replaced it with an analogue that deals with RCU internally.

Many singleton patches - please see the various changelogs for details.
Quite a lot of nilfs2 work this time around. Notable patch series in this pull request are: "mul_u64_u64_div_u64: new implementation" by Nicolas Pitre, with assistance from Uwe Kleine-König.

ALong with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series in
this pull request are: "Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification. "Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes - mode code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications. "mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No functional changes - code cleanups only. "Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a little cleanup. "mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and simplifications and .text shrinkage. "Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel Butt. This is a feature, it adds new feilds to /proc/vmstat such as $ grep kstack /proc/vmstat kstack_1k 3 kstack_2k 188 kstack_4k 11391 kstack_8k 243 kstack_16k 0 which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at all used 16k. Useful for some system tuning things, but partivularly useful for "the dynamic kernel stack project". "kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel Tikhomirov. Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory. "mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin. "3 independent small optimizations of page counters". "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications" from David Hildenbrand. Improves PTE/PMD splitlock detection, makes powerpc/8xx work correctly by design rather than by accident. "mm: remove arch_make_page_accessible()" from David Hildenbrand. Some folio conversions which make arch_make_page_accessible() unneeded. "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers" fro David Finkel. Cleans up and fixes our handling of the resetting of the cgroup/process peak-memory-use detector.

In the v6.12 scheduler development cycle we had 63 commits from 18 contributors:
- Implement the SCHED_DEADLINE server infrastructure - Daniel Bristot de Oliveira's last major contribution to the kernel: "SCHED_DEADLINE servers can help fixing starvation issues of low priority tasks (e.g., SCHED_OTHER) when higher priority tasks monopolize CPU cycles. Today we have RT Throttling; DEADLINE servers should be able to replace and improve that." (Daniel Bristot de Oliveira, Peter Zijlstra, Joel Fernandes, Youssef Esmat, Huang Shijie) - Preparatory changes for sched_ext integration: - Use set_next_task(.first) where required - Fix up set_next_task() implementations - Clean up DL server vs. core sched - Split up put_prev_task_balance() - Rework pick_next_task() - Combine the last put_prev_task() and the first set_next_task() - Rework dl_server - Add put_prev_task(.next) (Peter Zijlstra, with a fix by Tejun Heo) - Complete the EEVDF transition and refine EEVDF scheduling: - Implement delayed dequeue - Allow shorter slices to wakeup-preempt - Use sched_attr::sched_runtime to set request/slice suggestion - Document the new feature flags - Remove unused and duplicate-functionality fields - Simplify & unify pick_next_task_fair() - Misc debuggability enhancements (Peter Zijlstra, with fixes/cleanups by Dietmar Eggemann, Valentin Schneider and Chuyi Zhou) - Initialize the vruntime of a new task when it is first enqueued, resulting in significant decrease in latency of newly woken tasks.

But as we started to work on this, we found lots of interesting issues in the shared code and infrastructure, the fixes for which the various archs needed to base their work. So in the end, this turned into a nice collaborative effort fixing up issues and porting to 5 new architectures -- arm64, powerpc64, powerpc32, s390x, and loongarch64 -- with everybody pitching in and commenting on each other's code. It was a fun development cycle. This contains: - Numerous fixups to the vDSO selftest infrastructure, getting it running successfully on more platforms, and fixing bugs in it. - Additions to the vDSO getrandom & chacha selftests. Basically every time manual review unearthed a bug in a revision of an arch patch, or an ambiguity, the tests were augmented. By the time the last arch was submitted for review, s390x, v1 of the series was essentially fine right out of the gate. - Fixes to the the generic C implementation of vDSO getrandom, to build and run successfully on all archs, decoupling it from assumptions we had (unintentionally) made on x86_64 that didn't carry through to the other architectures. - Port of vDSO getrandom to LoongArch64, from Xi Ruoyao and acked by Huacai Chen. - Port of vDSO getrandom to ARM64, from Adhemerval Zanella and acked by Will Deacon. - Port of vDSO getrandom to PowerPC, in both 32-bit and 64-bit varieties, from Christophe Leroy and acked by Michael Ellerman. - Port of vDSO getrandom to S390X from Heiko Carstens, the arch maintainer. While it'd be natural for there to be things to fix up over the course of the development cycle, these patches got a decent amount of review from a fairly diverse crew of folks on the mailing lists, and, for the most part, they've been cooking in linux-next, which has been helpful for ironing out build issues. In terms of architectures, I think that mostly takes care of the important 64-bit archs with hardware still being produced and running production loads in settings where vDSO getrandom is likely to help. Arguably there's still RISC-V left, and we'll see for 6.13 whether they find it useful and submit a port" * tag 'random-6.12-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: (47 commits) selftests: vDSO: check cpu caps before running chacha test s390/vdso: Wire up getrandom() vdso implementation s390/vdso: Move vdso symbol handling to separate header file s390/vdso: Allow alternatives in vdso code s390/module: Provide find_section() helper s390/facility: Let test_facility() generate static branch if possible s390/alternatives: Remove ALT_FACILITY_EARLY s390/facility: Disable compile time optimization for decompressor code selftests: vDSO: fix vdso_config for s390 selftests: vDSO: fix ELF hash table entry size for s390x powerpc/vdso: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation on VDSO64 powerpc/vdso: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation on VDSO32 powerpc/vdso: Refactor CFLAGS for CVDSO build powerpc/vdso32: Add crtsavres mm: Define VM_DROPPABLE for powerpc/32 powerpc/vdso: Fix VDSO data access when running in a non-root time namespace selftests: vDSO: don't include generated headers for chacha test arm64: vDSO: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation arm64: alternative: make alternative_has_cap_likely() VDSO compatible selftests: vDSO: also test counter in vdso_test_chacha ... |

proc: use __auto_type more
Switch away from quite chatty declarations using typeof_member(). In theory this is faster to compile too because there is no macro expansion and there is less type checking.

Where "nbcon" stays for "No Big console lock CONsoles" aka not under the console_lock. New callbacks are added to struct console: - write_thread() for flushing nbcon consoles in task context. - write_atomic() for flushing nbcon consoles in atomic context, including NMI. - con->device_lock() and device_unlock() for taking the driver specific lock, for example, port->lock. New printk-specific kthreads are created: - per-console kthreads which get responsible for flushing normal priority messages on nbcon consoles. - thread which gets responsible for flushing normal priority messages on all consoles when CONFIG_RT enabled. The new callbacks are called under a special per-console lock which has already been added back in v6.7. It allows to distinguish three severities: normal, emergency, and panic. A context with a higher priority could take over the ownership when it is safe even in the middle of handling a record. The panic context could do it even when it is not safe. But it is allowed only for the final desperate flush before entering the infinite loop. The new lock helps to flush the messages directly in emergency and panic contexts. But it is not enough in all situations: - console_lock() is still need for synchronization against boot consoles. - con->device_lock() is need for synchronization against other operations on the same HW, e.g. serial port speed setting, non-printk related read/write. The dependency on con->device_lock() is mutual. Any code taking the driver specific lock has to acquire the related nbcon console context as well. For example, see the new uart_port_lock() API. It provides the necessary synchronization against emergency and panic contexts where the messages are flushed only under the new per-console lock. Maybe surprisingly, a quite tricky part is the decision how to flush the consoles in various situations. It has to take into account: - message priority: normal, emergency, panic - scheduling context: task, atomic, deferred_legacy - registered consoles: boot, legacy, nbcon - threads are running: early boot, suspend, shutdown, panic - caller: printk(), pr_flush(), printk_flush_in_panic(), console_unlock(), console_start(), ... The primary decision is made in printk_get_console_flush_type(). It creates a hint what the caller should do: - flush nbcon consoles directly or via the kthread - call the legacy loop (console_unlock()) directly or via irq_work The existing behavior is preserved for the legacy consoles. The only exception is that they are not longer flushed directly from printk() in panic() before CPUs are stopped. But this blocking happens only when at least one nbcon console is registered. The motivation is to increase a chance to produce the crash dump. They legacy consoles might create a deadlock in compare with nbcon consoles. The nbcon console should allow to see the messages even when the crash dump fails. There are three possible ways how nbcon consoles are flushed: - The per-nbcon-console kthread is responsible for flushing messages added with the normal priority. This is the default mode. - The legacy loop, aka console_unlock(), is used when there is still a boot console registered. There is no easy way how to match an early console driver with a nbcon console driver. And the console_lock() provides the only reliable serialization at the moment. The legacy loop uses either con->write_atomic() or con->write_thread() callbacks depending on whether it is allowed to schedule. The atomic variant has to be used from printk(). - In other situations, the messages are flushed directly using write_atomic() which can be called in any context, including NMI. It is primary needed during early boot or shutdown, in emergency situations, and panic. The emergency priority is used by a code called within nbcon_cpu_emergency_enter()/exit(). At the moment, it is used in four situations: WARN(), Oops, lockdep, and RCU stall reports. Finally, there is no nbcon console at the moment. It means that the changes should _not_ modify the existing behavior. The only exception is CONFIG_RT which would force offloading the legacy loop, for normal priority context, into the dedicated kthread" * tag 'printk-for-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux: (54 commits) printk: Avoid false positive lockdep report for legacy printing printk: nbcon: Assign nice -20 for printing threads printk: Implement legacy printer kthread for PREEMPT_RT tty: sysfs: Add nbcon support for 'active' proc: Add nbcon support for /proc/consoles proc: consoles: Add notation to c_start/c_stop printk: nbcon: Show replay message on takeover printk: Provide helper for message prepending printk: nbcon: Rely on kthreads for normal operation printk: nbcon: Use thread callback if in task context for legacy printk: nbcon: Relocate nbcon_atomic_emit_one() printk: nbcon: Introduce printer kthreads printk: nbcon: Init @nbcon_seq to highest possible printk: nbcon: Add context to usable() and emit() printk: Flush console on unregister_console() printk: Fail pr_flush() if before SYSTEM_SCHEDULING printk: nbcon: Add function for printers to reacquire ownership printk: nbcon: Use raw_cpu_ptr() instead of open coding printk: Use the BITS_PER_LONG macro lockdep: Mark emergency sections in lockdep splats ... |

This adds a Kconfig option and boot param to allow removing the FOLL_FORCE flag from /proc/<pid>/mem write calls as this can be used in various attacks. The traditional forcing behavior is kept as default because it can break GDB and some other use cases. This is the simpler version that you had requested. - Restrict overmounting of ephemeral entities. It is currently possible to mount on top of various ephemeral entities in procfs. This specifically includes magic links. To recap, magic links are links of the form /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. They serve as references to a target file and during path lookup they cause a jump to the target path. Such magic links disappear if the corresponding file descriptor is closed. Currently it is possible to overmount such magic links. This is mostly interesting for an attacker that wants to somehow trick a process into e.g., reopening something that it didn't intend to reopen or to hide a malicious file descriptor. But also it risks leaking mounts for long-running processes. When overmounting a magic link like above, the mount will not be detached when the file descriptor is closed. Only the target mountpoint will disappear. Which has the consequence of making it impossible to unmount that mount afterwards. So the mount will stick around until the process exits and the /proc/<pid>/ directory is cleaned up during proc_flush_pid() when the dentries are pruned and invalidated. That in turn means it's possible for a program to accidentally leak mounts and it's also possible to make a task leak mounts without it's knowledge if the attacker just keeps overmounting things under /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. Disallow overmounting of such ephemeral entities. - Cleanup the readdir method naming in some procfs file operations. - Replace kmalloc() and strcpy() with a simple kmemdup() call" * tag 'vfs-6.12.procfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: proc: fold kmalloc() + strcpy() into kmemdup() proc: block mounting on top of /proc/<pid>/fdinfo/* proc: block mounting on top of /proc/<pid>/fd/* proc: block mounting on top of /proc/<pid>/map_files/* proc: add proc_splice_unmountable() proc: proc_readfdinfo() -> proc_fdinfo_iterate() proc: proc_readfd() -> proc_fd_iterate() proc: add config & param to block forcing mem writes |

Right now, (focusing on x86) struct file is 232 bytes. After this series struct file will be 184 bytes aka 3 cacheline and a spare 8 bytes for future extensions at the end of the struct. With struct file being as ubiquitous as it is this should make a difference for file heavy workloads and allow further optimizations in the future. - struct fown_struct was embedded into struct file letting it take up 32 bytes in total when really it shouldn't even be embedded in struct file in the first place. Instead, actual users of struct fown_struct now allocate the struct on demand. This frees up 24 bytes. - Move struct file_ra_state into the union containg the cleanup hooks and move f_iocb_flags out of the union. This closes a 4 byte hole we created earlier and brings struct file to 192 bytes. Which means struct file is 3 cachelines and we managed to shrink it by 40 bytes. - Reorder struct file so that nothing crosses a cacheline. I suspect that in the future we will end up reordering some members to mitigate false sharing issues or just because someone does actually provide really good perf data. - Shrinking struct file to 192 bytes is only part of the work. Files use a slab that is SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and when a kmem cache is created with SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU the free pointer must be located outside of the object because the cache doesn't know what part of the memory can safely be overwritten as it may be needed to prevent object recycling. That has the consequence that SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU may end up adding a new cacheline. So this also contains work to add a new kmem_cache_create_rcu() function that allows the caller to specify an offset where the freelist pointer is supposed to be placed. Thus avoiding the implicit addition of a fourth cacheline. - And finally this removes the f_version member in struct file. The f_version member isn't particularly well-defined. It is mainly used as a cookie to detect concurrent seeks when iterating directories. But it is also abused by some subsystems for completely unrelated things. It is mostly a directory and filesystem specific thing that doesn't really need to live in struct file and with its wonky semantics it really lacks a specific function. For pipes, f_version is (ab)used to defer poll notifications until a write has happened. And struct pipe_inode_info is used by multiple struct files in their ->private_data so there's no chance of pushing that down into file->private_data without introducing another pointer indirection. But pipes don't rely on f_pos_lock so this adds a union into struct file encompassing f_pos_lock and a pipe specific f_pipe member that pipes can use. This union of course can be extended to other file types and is similar to what we do in struct inode already" * tag 'vfs-6.12.file' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (26 commits) fs: remove f_version pipe: use f_pipe fs: add f_pipe ubifs: store cookie in private data ufs: store cookie in private data udf: store cookie in private data proc: store cookie in private data ocfs2: store cookie in private data input: remove f_version abuse ext4: store cookie in private data ext2: store cookie in private data affs: store cookie in private data fs: add generic_llseek_cookie() fs: use must_set_pos() fs: add must_set_pos() fs: add vfs_setpos_cookie() s390: remove unused f_version ceph: remove unused f_version adi: remove unused f_version mm: Removed @freeptr_offset to prevent doc warning ... |

Often userspace wants to know whether an O_CREATE request did actually create a file without using O_EXCL. The current logic is that to first attempts to open the file without O_CREAT | O_EXCL and if ENOENT is returned userspace tries again with both flags. If that succeeds all is well. If it now reports EEXIST it retries. That works fairly well but some corner cases make this more involved. If this operates on a dangling symlink the first openat() without O_CREAT | O_EXCL will return ENOENT but the second openat() with O_CREAT | O_EXCL will fail with EEXIST. The reason is that openat() without O_CREAT | O_EXCL follows the symlink while O_CREAT | O_EXCL doesn't for security reasons. So it's not something we can really change unless we add an explicit opt-in via O_FOLLOW which seems really ugly. All available workarounds are really nasty (fanotify, bpf lsm etc) so add a simple fcntl(). - Try an opportunistic lookup for O_CREAT. Today, when opening a file we'll typically do a fast lookup, but if O_CREAT is set, the kernel always takes the exclusive inode lock. This was likely done with the expectation that O_CREAT means that we always expect to do the create, but that's often not the case. Many programs set O_CREAT even in scenarios where the file already exists (see related F_CREATED_QUERY patch motivation above). The series contained in the pr rearranges the pathwalk-for-open code to also attempt a fast_lookup in certain O_CREAT cases. If a positive dentry is found, the inode_lock can be avoided altogether and it can stay in rcuwalk mode for the last step_into. - Expose the 64 bit mount id via name_to_handle_at() Now that we provide a unique 64-bit mount ID interface in statx(2), we can now provide a race-free way for name_to_handle_at(2) to provide a file handle and corresponding mount without needing to worry about racing with /proc/mountinfo parsing or having to open a file just to do statx(2). While this is not necessary if you are using AT_EMPTY_PATH and don't care about an extra statx(2) call, users that pass full paths into name_to_handle_at(2) need to know which mount the file handle comes from (to make sure they don't try to open_by_handle_at a file handle from a different filesystem) and switching to AT_EMPTY_PATH would require allocating a file for every name_to_handle_at(2) call - Add a per dentry expire timeout to autofs There are two fairly well known automounter map formats, the autofs format and the amd format (more or less System V and Berkley). Some time ago Linux autofs added an amd map format parser that implemented a fair amount of the amd functionality. This was done within the autofs infrastructure and some functionality wasn't implemented because it either didn't make sense or required extra kernel changes. The idea was to restrict changes to be within the existing autofs functionality as much as possible and leave changes with a wider scope to be considered later. One of these changes is implementing the amd options: 1) "unmount", expire this mount according to a timeout (same as the current autofs default). 2) "nounmount", don't expire this mount (same as setting the autofs timeout to 0 except only for this specific mount) . 3) "utimeout=<seconds>", expire this mount using the specified timeout (again same as setting the autofs timeout but only for this mount) To implement these options per-dentry expire timeouts need to be implemented for autofs indirect mounts. This is because all map keys (mounts) for autofs indirect mounts use an expire timeout stored in the autofs mount super block info. structure and all indirect mounts use the same expire timeout. Fixes: - Fix missing fput for FSCONFIG_SET_FD in autofs - Use param->file for FSCONFIG_SET_FD in coda - Delete the 'fs/netfs' proc subtreee when netfs module exits - Make sure that struct uid_gid_map fits into a single cacheline - Don't flush in-flight wb switches for superblocks without cgroup writeback - Correcting the idmapping mount example in the idmapping documentation - Fix a race between evice_inodes() and find_inode() and iput() - Refine the show_inode_state() macro definition in writeback code - Prevent dump_mapping() from accessing invalid dentry.d_name.name - Show actual source for debugfs in /proc/mounts - Annotate data-race of busy_poll_usecs in eventpoll - Don't WARN for racy path_noexec check in exec code - Handle OOM on mnt_warn_timestamp_expiry() - Fix some spelling in the iomap design documentation - Fix typo in procfs comment - Fix typo in fs/namespace.c comment Cleanups: - Add the VFS git tree to the MAINTAINERS file - Move FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET to fop_flags freeing up another f_mode bit in struct file bringing us to 5 free f_mode bits - Remove the __I_DIO_WAKEUP bit from i_state flags as we can simplify the wait mechanism - Remove the unused path_put_init() helper - Replace a __u32 with u32 for s_fsnotify_mask as __u32 is uapi specific - Replace the unsigned long i_state member with a u32 i_state member in struct inode freeing up 4 bytes in struct inode. Instead of using the bit based wait apis we're now using the var event apis and using the individual bytes of the i_state member to wait on state changes - Explain how per-syscall AT_* flags should be allocated - Use in_group_or_capable() helper to simplify the posix acl mode update code - Switch to LIST_HEAD() in fsync_buffers_list() to simplify the code - Removed comment about d_rcu_to_refcount() as that function doesn't exist anymore - Add kernel documentation for lookup_fast() - Don't re-zero evenpoll fields - Remove outdated comment after close_fd() - Fix imprecise wording in comment about the pipe filesystem - Drop GFP_NOFAIL mode from alloc_page_buffers - Missing blank line warnings and struct declaration improved in file_table - Annotate struct poll_list with __counted_by() - Remove the unused read parameter in percpu-rwsem - Remove linux/prefetch.h include from direct-io code - Use kmemdup_array instead of kmemdup for multiple allocation in mnt_idmapping code - Remove unused mnt_cursor_del() declaration Performance tweaks: - Dodge smp_mb in break_lease and break_deleg in the common case - Only read fops once in fops_{get,put}() - Use RCU in ilookup() - Elide smp_mb in iversion handling in the common case - Drop one lock trip in evict()" * tag 'vfs-6.12.misc' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (58 commits) uidgid: make sure we fit into one cacheline proc: Fix typo in the comment fs/pipe: Correct imprecise wording in comment fhandle: expose u64 mount id to name_to_handle_at(2) uapi: explain how per-syscall AT_* flags should be allocated fs: drop GFP_NOFAIL mode from alloc_page_buffers writeback: Refine the show_inode_state() macro definition fs/inode: Prevent dump_mapping() accessing invalid dentry.d_name.name mnt_idmapping: Use kmemdup_array instead of kmemdup for multiple allocation netfs: Delete subtree of 'fs/netfs' when netfs module exits fs: use LIST_HEAD() to simplify code inode: make i_state a u32 inode: port __I_LRU_ISOLATING to var event vfs: fix race between evice_inodes() and find_inode()&iput() inode: port __I_NEW to var event inode: port __I_SYNC to var event fs: reorder i_state bits fs: add i_state helpers MAINTAINERS: add the VFS git tree fs: s/__u32/u32/ for s_fsnotify_mask ... |

The deference here confuses me. Maybe here want to say that because show_fd_locks() does not dereference the files pointer, using the stale value of the files pointer is safe.

sysctl: avoid spurious permanent empty tables
The test if a table is a permanently empty one, inspects the address of the registered ctl_table argument. However as sysctl_mount_point is an empty array and does not occupy and space it can end up sharing an address with another object in memory. If that other object itself is a "struct ctl_table" then registering that table will fail as it's incorrectly recognized as permanently empty. Avoid this issue by adding a dummy element to the array so that is not empty anymore. Explicitly register the table with zero elements as otherwise the dummy element would be recognized as a sentinel element which would lead to a runtime warning from the sysctl core. While the issue seems not being encountered at this time, this seems mostly to be due to luck. Also a future change, constifying sysctl_mount_point and root_table, can reliably trigger this issue on clang 18. Given that empty arrays are non-standard in the first place it seems prudent to avoid them if possible. Fixes: |

Merge patch series "proc: restrict overmounting of ephemeral entities"
Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> says: It is currently possible to mount on top of various ephemeral entities in procfs. This specifically includes magic links. To recap, magic links are links of the form /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. They serve as references to a target file and during path lookup they cause a jump to the target path. Such magic links disappear if the corresponding file descriptor is closed. Currently it is possible to overmount such magic links: int fd = open("/mnt/foo", O_RDONLY); sprintf(path, "/proc/%d/fd/%d", getpid(), fd); int fd2 = openat(AT_FDCWD, path, O_PATH | O_NOFOLLOW); mount("/mnt/bar", path, "", MS_BIND, 0); Arguably, this is nonsensical and is mostly interesting for an attacker that wants to somehow trick a process into e.g., reopening something that they didn't intend to reopen or to hide a malicious file descriptor. But also it risks leaking mounts for long-running processes. When overmounting a magic link like above, the mount will not be detached when the file descriptor is closed. Only the target mountpoint will disappear. Which has the consequence of making it impossible to unmount that mount afterwards. So the mount will stick around until the process exits and the /proc/<pid>/ directory is cleaned up during proc_flush_pid() when the dentries are pruned and invalidated. That in turn means it's possible for a program to accidentally leak mounts and it's also possible to make a task leak mounts without it's knowledge if the attacker just keeps overmounting things under /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. I think it's wrong to try and fix this by us starting to play games with close() or somewhere else to undo these mounts when the file descriptor is closed. The fact that we allow overmounting of such magic links is simply a bug and one that we need to fix. Similar things can be said about entries under fdinfo/ and map_files/ so those are restricted as well. I have a further more aggressive patch that gets out the big hammer and makes everything under /proc/<pid>/*, as well as immediate symlinks such as /proc/self, /proc/thread-self, /proc/mounts, /proc/net that point into /proc/<pid>/ not overmountable. Imho, all of this should be blocked if we can get away with it. It's only useful to hide exploits such as in [1]. And again, overmounting of any global procfs files remains unaffected and is an existing and supported use-case. Link: https://righteousit.com/2024/07/24/hiding-linux-processes-with-bind-mounts [1] // Note that repro uses the traditional way of just mounting over // /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. This could also all be achieved just based on // file descriptors using move_mount(). So /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr> isn't the // only entry vector here. It's also possible to e.g., mount directly // onto /proc/<pid>/map_files/* without going over /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { char path[PATH_MAX]; creat("/mnt/foo", 0777); creat("/mnt/bar", 0777); /* * For illustration use a bunch of file descriptors in the upper * range that are unused. */ for (int i = 10000; i >= 256; i--) { printf("I'm: /proc/%d/\n", getpid()); int fd2 = open("/mnt/foo", O_RDONLY); if (fd2 < 0) { printf("%m - Failed to open\n"); _exit(1); } int newfd = dup2(fd2, i); if (newfd < 0) { printf("%m - Failed to dup\n"); _exit(1); } close(fd2); sprintf(path, "/proc/%d/fd/%d", getpid(), newfd); int fd = openat(AT_FDCWD, path, O_PATH | O_NOFOLLOW); if (fd < 0) { printf("%m - Failed to open\n"); _exit(3); } sprintf(path, "/proc/%d/fd/%d", getpid(), fd); printf("Mounting on top of %s\n", path); if (mount("/mnt/bar", path, "", MS_BIND, 0)) { printf("%m - Failed to mount\n"); _exit(4); } close(newfd); close(fd2); } /* * Give some time to look at things.
