Merge tag 'io_uring-6.6-2023-09-08' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux

Pull io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A few fixes that should go into the 6.6-rc merge window:

   - Fix for a regression this merge window caused by the SQPOLL
     affinity patch, where we can race with SQPOLL thread shutdown and
     cause an oops when trying to set affinity (Gabriel)

   - Fix for a regression this merge window where fdinfo reading with
     for a ring setup with IORING_SETUP_NO_SQARRAY will attempt to
     deference the non-existing SQ ring array (me)

   - Add the patch that allows more finegrained control over who can use
     io_uring (Matteo)

   - Locking fix for a regression added this merge window for IOPOLL
     overflow (Pavel)

   - IOPOLL fix for stable, breaking our loop if helper threads are
     exiting (Pavel)

  Also had a fix for unreaped iopoll requests from io-wq from Ming, but
  we found an issue with that and hence it got reverted. Will get this
  sorted for a future rc"

76d3ccecfa io_uring: add a sysctl to disable io_uring system-wide
Introduce a new sysctl (io_uring_disabled) which can be either 0, 1, or
2. When 0 (the default), all processes are allowed to create io_uring
instances, which is the current behavior.  When 1, io_uring creation is
disabled (io_uring_setup() will fail with -EPERM) for unprivileged
processes not in the kernel.io_uring_group group.  When 2, calls to
io_uring_setup() fail with -EPERM regardless of privilege.

3a8a670eee Networking changes for 6.5.
Core
 ----
 
  - Rework the sendpage & splice implementations. Instead of feeding
    data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg handlers to support
    taking a reference on the data, controlled by a new flag called
    MSG_SPLICE_PAGES. Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file
    to invoke an additional callback instead of trying to predict what
    the right combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is.
    Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely.
 
  - Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to
    SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid.
 
  - Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT.
 
  - Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker.
 
  - Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent
    sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to
    tcp_rmem[2].
 
  - Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy.
 
  - Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure
    that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags.
 
  - Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions
    linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative.
 
  - Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info (MPTCP_FULL_INFO).
 
  - Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have
    a full record.
 
  - Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving
    the way to issuing ioctls over io_uring.
 
  - Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully
    encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address.
 
  - Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure
    in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same
    link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch.
 
  - PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable.
 
  - Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client
    (ipconfig).
 
  - Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers
    (e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether
    packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge).
 
  - Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets.
 
  - Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their
    printk level to debug.
 
  - HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto.
 
  - Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4.
 
  - Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows
    maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used,
    or in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs,
    especially those using open-coded iterators.
 
  - Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF
    assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data.
    But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what
    the output buffer *should* be, without writing anything.
 
  - Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers.
 
  - Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper.
 
  - Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands.
 
  - Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark
    maps as read-only).
 
  - Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo.
 
  - Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are self-explanatory):
    - Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(),
      bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size()
      and bpf_dynptr_clone().
    - bpf_task_under_cgroup()
    - bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets
    - bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables. Allow checking
    presence of an entry in a map without using the value.
 
  - Increase ip_vs_conn_tab_bits range for 64BIT builds.
 
  - Allow updating size of a set.
 
  - Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Integrate netdev with LED subsystem, to allow configuring HW
    "offloaded" blinking of LEDs based on link state and activity
    (i.e. packets coming in and out).
 
  - Support configuring rate selection pins of SFP modules.
 
  - Factor Clause 73 auto-negotiation code out of the drivers, provide
    common helper routines.
 
  - Add more fool-proof helpers for managing lifetime of MDIO devices
    associated with the PCS layer.
 
  - Allow drivers to report advanced statistics related to Time Aware
    scheduler offload (taprio).
 
  - Allow opting out of VF statistics in link dump, to allow more VFs
    to fit into the message.
 
  - Split devlink instance and devlink port operations.

605cfa1b10 net: introduce default_rps_mask netns attribute
If RPS is enabled, this allows configuring a default rps
mask, which is effective since receive queue creation time.

A default RPS mask allows the system admin to ensure proper
isolation, avoiding races at network namespace or device
creation time.

The default RPS mask is initially empty, and can be
modified via a newly added sysctl entry.

a42aaad2e4 kexec: introduce sysctl parameters kexec_load_limit_*
kexec allows replacing the current kernel with a different one.  This is
usually a source of concerns for sysadmins that want to harden a system.

Linux already provides a way to disable loading new kexec kernel via
kexec_load_disabled, but that control is very coard, it is all or nothing
and does not make distinction between a panic kexec and a normal kexec.

This patch introduces new sysctl parameters, with finer tuning to specify
how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded.  The sysadmin can set
different limits for kexec panic and kexec reboot kernels.  The value can
be modified at runtime via sysctl, but only with a stricter value.

With these new parameters on place, a system with loadpin and verity
enabled, using the following kernel parameters:
sysctl.kexec_load_limit_reboot=0 sysct.kexec_load_limit_panic=1 can have a
good warranty that if initrd tries to load a panic kernel, a malitious
user will have small chances to replace that kernel with a different one,
even if they can trigger timeouts on the disk where the panic kernel
lives.

Add two parameter to specify how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded.

These parameter allow hardening the system.

While we are at it, fix a documentation issue and refactor some code.


This patch (of 3):

kexec_load_disabled affects both ``kexec_load`` and ``kexec_file_load``
syscalls. Make it explicit.

a7cacfb068 This was a not-too-busy cycle for documentation; highlights include:
- The beginnings of a set of translations into Spanish, headed up by Carlos
   Bilbao.
 
 - More Chinese translations.
 
 - A change to the Sphinx "alabaster" theme by default for HTML generation.
   Unlike the previous default (Read the Docs), alabaster is shipped with
   Sphinx by default, reducing the number of other dependencies that need to
   be installed.  It also (IMO) produces a cleaner and more readable result.
 
 - The ability to render the documentation into the texinfo format
   (something Sphinx could always do, we just never wired it up until now).
 
 Plus the usual collection of typo fixes, build-warning fixes, and minor
 updates.

d4ccd54d28 exit: Put an upper limit on how often we can oops
Many Linux systems are configured to not panic on oops; but allowing an
attacker to oops the system **really** often can make even bugs that look
completely unexploitable exploitable (like NULL dereferences and such) if
each crash elevates a refcount by one or a lock is taken in read mode, and
this causes a counter to eventually overflow.

The most interesting counters for this are 32 bits wide (like open-coded
refcounts that don't use refcount_t). (The ldsem reader count on 32-bit
platforms is just 16 bits, but probably nobody cares about 32-bit platforms
that much nowadays.)

So let's panic the system if the kernel is constantly oopsing.

The speed of oopsing 2^32 times probably depends on several factors, like
how long the stack trace is and which unwinder you're using; an empirically
important one is whether your console is showing a graphical environment or
a text console that oopses will be printed to.
In a quick single-threaded benchmark, it looks like oopsing in a vfork()
child with a very short stack trace only takes ~510 microseconds per run
when a graphical console is active; but switching to a text console that
oopses are printed to slows it down around 87x, to ~45 milliseconds per
run.
(Adding more threads makes this faster, but the actual oops printing
happens under &die_lock on x86, so you can maybe speed this up by a factor
of around 2 and then any further improvement gets eaten up by lock
contention.)

It looks like it would take around 8-12 days to overflow a 32-bit counter
with repeated oopsing on a multi-core X86 system running a graphical
environment; both me (in an X86 VM) and Seth (with a distro kernel on
normal hardware in a standard configuration) got numbers in that ballpark.

12 days aren't *that* short on a desktop system, and you'd likely need much
longer on a typical server system (assuming that people don't run graphical
desktop environments on their servers), and this is a *very* noisy and
violent approach to exploiting the kernel; and it also seems to take orders
of magnitude longer on some machines, probably because stuff like EFI
pstore will slow it down a ton if that's active.

8603b6f586 core_pattern: add CPU specifier
Statistically, in a large deployment regular segfaults may indicate a CPU
issue.

Currently, it is not possible to find out what CPU the segfault happened
on.  There are at least two attempts to improve segfault logging with this
regard, but they do not help in case the logs rotate.

Hence, lets make sure it is possible to permanently record a CPU the task
ran on using a new core_pattern specifier.

727209376f x86/split_lock: Add sysctl to control the misery mode
Commit b041b525da ("x86/split_lock: Make life miserable for split lockers")
changed the way the split lock detector works when in "warn" mode;
basically, it not only shows the warn message, but also intentionally
introduces a slowdown through sleeping plus serialization mechanism
on such task. Based on discussions in [0], seems the warning alone
wasn't enough motivation for userspace developers to fix their
applications.

This slowdown is enough to totally break some proprietary (aka.
unfixable) userspace[1].

Happens that originally the proposal in [0] was to add a new mode
which would warns + slowdown the "split locking" task, keeping the
old warn mode untouched. In the end, that idea was discarded and
the regular/default "warn" mode now slows down the applications. This
is quite aggressive with regards proprietary/legacy programs that
basically are unable to properly run in kernel with this change.
While it is understandable that a malicious application could DoS
by split locking, it seems unacceptable to regress old/proprietary
userspace programs through a default configuration that previously
worked. An example of such breakage was reported in [1].

Add a sysctl to allow controlling the "misery mode" behavior, as per
Thomas suggestion on [2]. This way, users running legacy and/or
proprietary software are allowed to still execute them with a decent
performance while still observing the warning messages on kernel log.

bfeb7e399b bpf: Use bpf_capable() instead of CAP_SYS_ADMIN for blinding decision
The full CAP_SYS_ADMIN requirement for blinding looks too strict nowadays.
These days given unprivileged BPF is disabled by default, the main users
for constant blinding coming from unprivileged in particular via cBPF -> eBPF
migration (e.g. old-style socket filters).

bfca3dd3d0 kernel/utsname_sysctl.c: print kernel arch
Print the machine hardware name (UTS_MACHINE) in /proc/sys/kernel/arch.

This helps people who debug kernel with initramfs with minimal environment
(i.e.  without coreutils or even busybox) or allow to open sysfs file
instead of run 'uname -m' in high level languages.

c6833e1000 memory tiering: rate limit NUMA migration throughput
In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow
memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote
hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes.

A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible.  But the CPU cycles and
memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will
hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow
memory bandwidth contention.

A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting
throughput.  It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting.  But
the workload latency will be better.  This is implemented in this patch as
the page promotion rate limit mechanism.

The number of the candidate pages to be promoted to the fast memory node
via NUMA balancing is counted, if the count exceeds the limit specified by
the users, the NUMA balancing promotion will be stopped until the next
second.

A new sysctl knob kernel.numa_balancing_promote_rate_limit_MBps is added
for the users to specify the limit.

1202cdd665 Remove DECnet support from kernel
DECnet is an obsolete network protocol that receives more attention
from kernel janitors than users. It belongs in computer protocol
history museum not in Linux kernel.

It has been "Orphaned" in kernel since 2010. The iproute2 support
for DECnet was dropped in 5.0 release. The documentation link on
Sourceforge says it is abandoned there as well.

Leave the UAPI alone to keep userspace programs compiling.
This means that there is still an empty neighbour table
for AF_DECNET.

The table of /proc/sys/net entries was updated to match
current directories and reformatted to be alphabetical.

118b136693 powerpc/pseries/mobility: set NMI watchdog factor during an LPM
During an LPM, while the memory transfer is in progress on the arrival
side, some latencies are generated when accessing not yet transferred
pages on the arrival side. Thus, the NMI watchdog may be triggered too
frequently, which increases the risk to hit an NMI interrupt in a bad
place in the kernel, leading to a kernel panic.

Disabling the Hard Lockup Watchdog until the memory transfer could be a
too strong work around, some users would want this timeout to be
eventually triggered if the system is hanging even during an LPM.

Introduce a new sysctl variable nmi_watchdog_factor. It allows to apply
a factor to the NMI watchdog timeout during an LPM. Just before the CPUs
are stopped for the switchover sequence, the NMI watchdog timer is set
to watchdog_thresh + factor%

A value of 0 has no effect. The default value is 200, meaning that the
NMI watchdog is set to 30s during LPM (based on a 10s watchdog_thresh
value). Once the memory transfer is achieved, the factor is reset to 0.

Setting this value to a high number is like disabling the NMI watchdog
during an LPM.

40ad0a52ef Documentation: add a description for net.core.high_order_alloc_disable
A description is missing for the net.core.high_order_alloc_disable
option in admin-guide/sysctl/net.rst ; add it. The above sysctl option
was introduced by commit ce27ec6064 ("net: add high_order_alloc_disable

Thanks to Eric for running again the benchmark cited in the above

6636109512 mm: memory_hotplug: make hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap compatible with memmap_on_memory
For now, the feature of hugetlb_free_vmemmap is not compatible with the
feature of memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory, and hugetlb_free_vmemmap takes
precedence over memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory.  However, someone wants
to make memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory takes precedence over
hugetlb_free_vmemmap since memmap_on_memory makes it more likely to
succeed memory hotplug in close-to-OOM situations.  So the decision of
making hugetlb_free_vmemmap take precedence is not wise and elegant.

The proper approach is to have hugetlb_vmemmap.c do the check whether the
section which the HugeTLB pages belong to can be optimized.  If the
section's vmemmap pages are allocated from the added memory block itself,
hugetlb_free_vmemmap should refuse to optimize the vmemmap, otherwise, do
the optimization.  Then both kernel parameters are compatible.  So this
patch introduces VmemmapSelfHosted to mask any non-optimizable vmemmap
pages.  The hugetlb_vmemmap can use this flag to detect if a vmemmap page
can be optimized.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core
  ----

   - Support TCPv6 segmentation offload with super-segments larger than
     64k bytes using the IPv6 Jumbogram extension header (AKA BIG TCP).

   - Generalize skb freeing deferral to per-cpu lists, instead of
     per-socket lists.

   - Add a netdev statistic for packets dropped due to L2 address
     mismatch (rx_otherhost_dropped).

   - Continue work annotating skb drop reasons.

   - Accept alternative netdev names (ALT_IFNAME) in more netlink
     requests.

   - Add VLAN support for AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW GSO.

   - Allow receiving skb mark from the socket as a cmsg.

   - Enable memcg accounting for veth queues, sysctl tables and IPv6.

  BPF
  ---

   - Add libbpf support for User Statically-Defined Tracing (USDTs).

   - Speed up symbol resolution for kprobes multi-link attachments.

   - Support storing typed pointers to referenced and unreferenced
     objects in BPF maps.

   - Add support for BPF link iterator.

   - Introduce access to remote CPU map elements in BPF per-cpu map.

   - Allow middle-of-the-road settings for the
     kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled sysctl.

   - Implement basic types of dynamic pointers e.g. to allow for
     dynamically sized ringbuf reservations without extra memory copies.

  Protocols
  ---------

   - Retire port only listening_hash table, add a second bind table
     hashed by port and address. Avoid linear list walk when binding to
     very popular ports (e.g. 443).

   - Add bridge FDB bulk flush filtering support allowing user space to
     remove all FDB entries matching a condition.

   - Introduce accept_unsolicited_na sysctl for IPv6 to implement
     router-side changes for RFC9131.

   - Support for MPTCP path manager in user space.

   - Add MPTCP support for fallback to regular TCP for connections that
     have never connected additional subflows or transmitted
     out-of-sequence data (partial support for RFC8684 fallback).

   - Avoid races in MPTCP-level window tracking, stabilize and improve
     throughput.

   - Support lockless operation of GRE tunnels with seq numbers enabled.

   - WiFi support for host based BSS color collision detection.

   - Add support for SO_TXTIME/SCM_TXTIME on CAN sockets.

   - Support transmission w/o flow control in CAN ISOTP (ISO 15765-2).

   - Support zero-copy Tx with TLS 1.2 crypto offload (sendfile).

   - Allow matching on the number of VLAN tags via tc-flower.

   - Add tracepoint for tcp_set_ca_state().

  Driver API
  ----------

   - Improve error reporting from classifier and action offload.

   - Add support for listing line cards in switches (devlink).

   - Add helpers for reporting page pool statistics with ethtool -S.

   - Add support for reading clock cycles when using PTP virtual clocks,
     instead of having the driver convert to time before reporting. This
     makes it possible to report time from different vclocks.

   - Support configuring low-latency Tx descriptor push via ethtool.

   - Separate Clause 22 and Clause 45 MDIO accesses more explicitly.

  New hardware / drivers
  ----------------------

   - Ethernet:
      - Marvell's Octeon NIC PCI Endpoint support (octeon_ep)
      - Sunplus SP7021 SoC (sp7021_emac)
      - Add support for Renesas RZ/V2M (in ravb)
      - Add support for MediaTek mt7986 switches (in mtk_eth_soc)

88a618920e It was a moderately busy cycle for documentation; highlights include:
- After a long period of inactivity, the Japanese translations are seeing
    some much-needed maintenance and updating.
 
  - Reworked IOMMU documentation
 
  - Some new documentation for static-analysis tools
 
  - A new overall structure for the memory-management documentation.  This
    is an LSFMM outcome that, it is hoped, will help encourage developers to
    fill in the many gaps.  Optimism is eternal...but hopefully it will
    work.
 
  - More Chinese translations.
 
 Plus the usual typo fixes, updates, etc.
