Fix to check the tracepoint event is not valid with $retval.
The commit 08c9306fc2 ("tracing/fprobe-event: Assume fprobe is
a return event by $retval") introduced automatic return probe
conversion with $retval. But since tracepoint event does not
support return probe, $retval is not acceptable.
Without this fix, ftracetest, tprobe_syntax_errors.tc fails;
[22] Tracepoint probe event parser error log check [FAIL]
----

BTF_TYPE_SAFE_TRUSTED(struct bpf_iter__task) in verifier.c wanted to
teach BPF verifier that bpf_iter__task -> task is a trusted ptr. But it
doesn't work well.
The reason is, bpf_iter__task -> task would go through btf_ctx_access()
which enforces the reg_type of 'task' is ctx_arg_info->reg_type, and in
task_iter.c, we actually explicitly declare that the
ctx_arg_info->reg_type is PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL.
Actually we have a previous case like this[1] where PTR_TRUSTED is added to
the arg flag for map_iter.
This patch sets ctx_arg_info->reg_type is PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL |
PTR_TRUSTED in task_reg_info.
Similarly, bpf_cgroup_reg_info -> cgroup is also PTR_TRUSTED since we are
under the protection of cgroup_mutex and we would check cgroup_is_dead()
in __cgroup_iter_seq_show().
This patch is to improve the user experience of the newly introduced
bpf_iter_css_task kfunc before hitting the mainline. The Fixes tag is
pointing to the commit introduced the bpf_iter_css_task kfunc.

There is an unusual case that the range map covers right up to the top
of system RAM, but leaves a hole somewhere lower down. Then it prevents
the nvme device dma mapping in the checking path of phys_to_dma() and
causes the hangs at boot.
E.g. On an Armv8 Ampere server, the dsdt ACPI table is:
Method (_DMA, 0, Serialized) // _DMA: Direct Memory Access
{
Name (RBUF, ResourceTemplate ()
{
QWordMemory (ResourceConsumer, PosDecode, MinFixed,
MaxFixed, Cacheable, ReadWrite,
0x0000000000000000, // Granularity

0x00000000FFFFFFFF, // Range Maximum
0x0000000000000000, // Translation Offset
0x0000000100000000, // Length

QWordMemory (ResourceConsumer, PosDecode, MinFixed,
MaxFixed, Cacheable, ReadWrite,
0x0000000000000000, // Granularity
0x0000006010200000, // Range Minimum
0x000000602FFFFFFF, // Range Maximum
0x0000000000000000, // Translation Offset
0x000000001FE00000, // Length

QWordMemory (ResourceConsumer, PosDecode, MinFixed,
MaxFixed, Cacheable, ReadWrite,
0x0000000000000000, // Granularity

0x00000060FFFFFFFF, // Range Maximum
0x0000000000000000, // Translation Offset

QWordMemory (ResourceConsumer, PosDecode, MinFixed,
MaxFixed, Cacheable, ReadWrite,
0x0000000000000000, // Granularity
0x0000007000000000, // Range Minimum

0x0000000000000000, // Translation Offset
0x0000039000000000, // Length

})
But the System RAM ranges are:
cat /proc/iomem |grep -i ram
90000000-91ffffff : System RAM
92900000-fffbffff : System RAM
880000000-fffffffff : System RAM
8800000000-bff5990fff : System RAM
bff59d0000-bff5a4ffff : System RAM
bff8000000-bfffffffff : System RAM
So some RAM ranges are out of dma_range_map.
Fix it by checking whether each of the system RAM resources can be
properly encompassed within the dma_range_map.

- Remove eventfs_file descriptor
This is the biggest change, and the second part of making eventfs
create its files dynamically.
In 6.6 the first part was added, and that maintained a one to one
mapping between eventfs meta descriptors and the directories and
file inodes and dentries that were dynamically created. The
directories were represented by a eventfs_inode and the files
were represented by a eventfs_file.
In v6.7 the eventfs_file is removed. As all events have the same
directory make up (sched_switch has an "enable", "id", "format",
etc files), the handing of what files are underneath each leaf
eventfs directory is moved back to the tracing subsystem via a
callback. When a event is added to the eventfs, it registers
an array of evenfs_entry's. These hold the names of the files and
the callbacks to call when the file is referenced. The callback gets
the name so that the same callback may be used by multiple files.
The callback then supplies the filesystem_operations structure needed
to create this file.
This has brought the memory footprint of creating multiple eventfs
instances down by 2 megs each!
- User events now has persistent events that are not associated
to a single processes. These are privileged events that hang around
even if no process is attached to them.
- Clean up of seq_buf.
There's talk about using seq_buf more to replace strscpy() and friends.
But this also requires some minor modifications of seq_buf to be
able to do this.
- Expand instance ring buffers individually
Currently if boot up creates an instance, and a trace event is
enabled on that instance, the ring buffer for that instance and the
top level ring buffer are expanded (1.4 MB per CPU). This wastes
memory as this happens when nothing is using the top level instance.
- Other minor clean ups and fixes.

Merge tag 'printk-for-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Another preparation step for introducing printk kthreads. The main
piece is a per-console lock with several features:
- Support three priorities: normal, emergency, and panic. They will
be defined by a context where the lock is taken. A context with a
higher priority is allowed to take over the lock from a context
with a lower one.
The plan is to use the emergency context for Oops and WARN()
messages, and also by watchdogs.
The panic() context will be used on panic CPU.
- The owner might enter/exit regions where it is not safe to take
over the lock. It allows the take over the lock a safe way in the
middle of a message.
For example, serial drivers emit characters one by one. And the
serial port is in a safe state in between.
Only the final console_flush_in_panic() will be allowed to take
over the lock even in the unsafe state (last chance, pray, and
hope).
- A higher priority context might busy wait with a timeout. The
current owner is informed about the waiter and releases the lock
on exit from the unsafe state.
- The new lock is safe even in atomic contexts, including NMI.
Another change is a safe manipulation of per-console sequence number
counter under the new lock.
- simple_strntoull() micro-optimization
- Reduce pr_flush() pooling time.
- Calm down false warning about possible buffer invalid access to
console buffers when CONFIG_PRINTK is disabled.
[ .. and Thomas Gleixner wants to point out that while several of the
commits are attributed to him, he only authored the early versions of
said commits, and that John Ogness and Petr Mladek have been the ones
who sorted out the details and really should be those who get the
credit - Linus ]

* tag 'livepatching-for-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/livepatching/livepatching:
livepatch: Fix missing newline character in klp_resolve_symbols()
Fix these two error paths:
1. When set_memory_decrypted() fails, pages may be left fully or partially
decrypted.
2. Decrypted pages may be freed if swiotlb_alloc_tlb() determines that the
physical address is too high.
To fix the first issue, call set_memory_encrypted() on the allocated region
after a failed decryption attempt. If that also fails, leak the pages.
To fix the second issue, check that the TLB physical address is below the
requested limit before decrypting.
Let the caller differentiate between unsuitable physical address (=> retry
from a lower zone) and allocation failures (=> no point in retrying).

We consistently switched from kmalloc() to vmalloc() in module
decompression to prevent potential memory allocation failures with large
modules, however vmalloc() is not as memory-efficient and fast as
kmalloc().
Since we don't know in general the size of the workspace required by the
decompression algorithm, it is more reasonable to use kvmalloc()
consistently, also considering that we don't have special memory
requirements here.

The only thing worth highligthing is that gzip moves to use vmalloc() instead of
kmalloc just as we had a fix for this for zstd on v6.6-rc1. The rest is regular
house keeping, keeping things neat, tidy, and boring.

[ The kmalloc -> vmalloc conversion is not the right approach.

To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size
penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the
final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this
work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove
the sentinel. Both arch and driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit
less than a month. It is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls
out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the unneeded
check for procname == NULL.
The last 2 patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen which allow
us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used to work but the
alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want to detect softlockups
super early rather than wait and spend money on cloud solutions with nothing
but an eventual hung kernel. Although this hadn't gone through linux-next it's
also a stable fix, so we might as well roll through the fixes now.

BPF_END and BPF_NEG has a different specification for the source bit in
the opcode compared to other ALU/ALU64 instructions, and is either
reserved or use to specify the byte swap endianness. In both cases the
source bit does not encode source operand location, and src_reg is a
reserved field.
backtrack_insn() currently does not differentiate BPF_END and BPF_NEG
from other ALU/ALU64 instructions, which leads to r0 being incorrectly
marked as precise when processing BPF_ALU | BPF_TO_BE | BPF_END
instructions. This commit teaches backtrack_insn() to correctly mark
precision for such case.
While precise tracking of BPF_NEG and other BPF_END instructions are
correct and does not need fixing, this commit opt to process all BPF_NEG

The newly added open-coded css_task iter would try to hold the global
css_set_lock in bpf_iter_css_task_new, so the bpf side has to be careful in
where it allows to use this iter. The mainly concern is dead locking on
css_set_lock. check_css_task_iter_allowlist() in verifier enforced css_task
can only be used in bpf_lsm hooks and sleepable bpf_iter.
This patch relax the allowlist for css_task iter. Any lsm and any iter
(even non-sleepable) and any sleepable are safe since they would not hold
the css_set_lock before entering BPF progs context.
This patch also fixes the misused BPF_TRACE_ITER in
check_css_task_iter_allowlist which compared bpf_prog_type with
bpf_attach_type.

When there are concurrent uref release and bpf timer init operations,
the following sequence diagram is possible. It will break the guarantee
provided by bpf_timer: bpf_timer will still be alive after userspace
application releases or unpins the map. It also will lead to kmemleak
for old kernel version which doesn't release bpf_timer when map is
released.
bpf program X:
bpf_timer_init()
lock timer->lock
read timer->timer as NULL
read map->usercnt != 0
process Y:
close(map_fd)
// put last uref
bpf_map_put_uref()
atomic_dec_and_test(map->usercnt)
array_map_free_timers()
bpf_timer_cancel_and_free()
// just return
read timer->timer is NULL
t = bpf_map_kmalloc_node()
timer->timer = t
unlock timer->lock
Fix the problem by checking map->usercnt after timer->timer is assigned,
so when there are concurrent uref release and bpf timer init, either
bpf_timer_cancel_and_free() from uref release reads a no-NULL timer
or the newly-added atomic64_read() returns a zero usercnt.
Because atomic_dec_and_test(map->usercnt) and READ_ONCE(timer->timer)
in bpf_timer_cancel_and_free() are not protected by a lock, so add
a memory barrier to guarantee the order between map->usercnt and
timer->timer. Also use WRITE_ONCE(timer->timer, x) to match the lockless
read of timer->timer in bpf_timer_cancel_and_free().

Not all uses of __diag_ignore_all(...) in BPF-related code in order to
suppress warnings are wrapping kfunc definitions. Some "hook point"
definitions - small functions meant to be used as attach points for
fentry and similar BPF progs - need to suppress -Wmissing-declarations.
We could use __bpf_kfunc_{start,end}_defs added in the previous patch in
such cases, but this might be confusing to someone unfamiliar with BPF
internals. Instead, this patch adds __bpf_hook_{start,end} macros,
currently having the same effect as __bpf_kfunc_{start,end}_defs, then
uses them to suppress warnings for two hook points in the kernel itself
and some bpf_testmod hook points as well.

BPF kfuncs are meant to be called from BPF programs. Accordingly, most
kfuncs are not called from anywhere in the kernel, which the
-Wmissing-prototypes warning is unhappy about. We've peppered
__diag_ignore_all("-Wmissing-prototypes", ... everywhere kfuncs are
defined in the codebase to suppress this warning.
This patch adds two macros meant to bound one or many kfunc definitions.
All existing kfunc definitions which use these __diag calls to suppress
-Wmissing-prototypes are migrated to use the newly-introduced macros.
A new __diag_ignore_all - for "-Wmissing-declarations" - is added to the
__bpf_kfunc_start_defs macro based on feedback from Andrii on an earlier
version of this patch [0] and another recent mailing list thread [1].
In the future we might need to ignore different warnings or do other
kfunc-specific things. This change will make it easier to make such
modifications for all kfunc defs.

A synthetic event is created by the synthetic event interface that can
read both user or kernel address memory. In reality, it reads any
arbitrary memory location from within the kernel. If the address space is
in USER (where CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE is set) then
it uses strncpy_from_user_nofault() to copy strings otherwise it uses
strncpy_from_kernel_nofault().
But since both functions use the same variable there's no annotation to
what that variable is (ie. __user). This makes sparse complain.
Quiet sparse by typecasting the strncpy_from_user_nofault() variable to
a __user pointer.

The following can crash the kernel:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 'p:sched schedule' > kprobe_events
# exec 5>>events/kprobes/sched/enable
# > kprobe_events
# exec 5>&-
The above commands:
1. Change directory to the tracefs directory
2. Create a kprobe event (doesn't matter what one)
3. Open bash file descriptor 5 on the enable file of the kprobe event
4. Delete the kprobe event (removes the files too)
5. Close the bash file descriptor 5
The above causes a crash!

RIP: 0010:tracing_release_file_tr+0xc/0x50
What happens here is that the kprobe event creates a trace_event_file
"file" descriptor that represents the file in tracefs to the event. It
maintains state of the event (is it enabled for the given instance?).
Opening the "enable" file gets a reference to the event "file" descriptor
via the open file descriptor. When the kprobe event is deleted, the file is
also deleted from the tracefs system which also frees the event "file"
descriptor.
But as the tracefs file is still opened by user space, it will not be
totally removed until the final dput() is called on it. But this is not
true with the event "file" descriptor that is already freed. If the user
does a write to or simply closes the file descriptor it will reference the
event "file" descriptor that was just freed, causing a use-after-free bug.
To solve this, add a ref count to the event "file" descriptor as well as a
new flag called "FREED". The "file" will not be freed until the last
reference is released. But the FREE flag will be set when the event is
removed to prevent any more modifications to that event from happening,
even if there's still a reference to the event "file" descriptor.

Merge tag 'io_uring-futex-2023-10-30' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux
Pull io_uring futex support from Jens Axboe:
"This adds support for using futexes through io_uring - first futex
wake and wait, and then the vectored variant of waiting, futex waitv.
For both wait/wake/waitv, we support the bitset variant, as the
'normal' variants can be easily implemented on top of that.
PI and requeue are not supported through io_uring, just the above
mentioned parts. This may change in the future, but in the spirit of
keeping this small (and based on what people have been asking for),
this is what we currently have.
Wake support is pretty straight forward, most of the thought has gone
into the wait side to avoid needing to offload wait operations to a
blocking context. Instead, we rely on the usual callbacks to retry and
post a completion event, when appropriate.
As far as I can recall, the first request for futex support with
io_uring came from Andres Freund, working on postgres. His aio rework
of postgres was one of the early adopters of io_uring, and futex
support was a natural extension for that. This is relevant from both a
usability point of view, as well as for effiency and performance. In
Andres's words, for the former:
Futex wait support in io_uring makes it a lot easier to avoid
deadlocks in concurrent programs that have their own buffer pool:
Obviously pages in the application buffer pool have to be locked
during IO. If the initiator of IO A needs to wait for a held lock
B, the holder of lock B might wait for the IO A to complete. The
ability to wait for a lock and IO completions at the same time
provides an efficient way to avoid such deadlocks
and in terms of effiency, even without unlocking the full potential
yet, Andres says:
Futex wake support in io_uring is useful because it allows for more
efficient directed wakeups. For some "locks" postgres has queues
implemented in userspace, with wakeup logic that cannot easily be
implemented with FUTEX_WAKE_BITSET on a single "futex word"
(imagine waiting for journal flushes to have completed up to a
certain point).
Thus a "lock release" sometimes need to wake up many processes in a
row. A quick-and-dirty conversion to doing these wakeups via
io_uring lead to a 3% throughput increase, with 12% fewer context
switches, albeit in a fairly extreme workload"

The commit:
cff9b2332a ("kernel/sched: Modify initial boot task idle setup")
has changed the semantics of what is to be considered an idle task in
such a way that the idle task of an offline CPU may not carry the
PF_IDLE flag anymore.
However RCU-tasks-trace tests the opposite assertion, still assuming
that idle tasks carry the PF_IDLE flag during their whole lifecycle.
Remove this assumption to avoid spurious warnings but keep the initial
test verifying that the idle task is the current task on any offline
CPU.

The commit:
cff9b2332a ("kernel/sched: Modify initial boot task idle setup")
has changed the semantics of what is to be considered an idle task in
such a way that CPU boot code preceding the actual idle loop is excluded
from it.
This has however introduced new potential RCU-tasks stalls when either:
1) Grace period is started before init/0 had a chance to set PF_IDLE,
keeping it stuck in the holdout list until idle ever schedules.
2) Grace period is started when some possible CPUs have never been
online, keeping their idle tasks stuck in the holdout list until the
CPU ever boots up.
3) Similar to 1) but with secondary CPUs: Grace period is started
concurrently with secondary CPU booting, putting its idle task in
the holdout list because PF_IDLE isn't yet observed on it. It stays
then stuck in the holdout list until that CPU ever schedules. The
effect is mitigated here by the hotplug AP thread that must run to
bring the CPU up.
Fix this with handling the new semantics of PF_IDLE, keeping in mind
that it may or may not be set on an idle task. Take advantage of that to
strengthen the coverage of an RCU-tasks quiescent state within an idle
task, excluding the CPU boot code from it. Only the code running within
the idle loop is now a quiescent state, along with offline CPUs.

Export the RCU point of view as to when a CPU is considered offline
(ie: when does RCU consider that a CPU is sufficiently down in the
hotplug process to not feature any possible read side).
This will be used by RCU-tasks whose vision of an offline CPU should
reasonably match the one of RCU core.

Commit 851a723e45 ("sched: Always clear user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed()") added a kfree() call to free any user
provided affinity mask, if present. It was changed later to use
kfree_rcu() in commit 9a5418bc48 ("sched/core: Use kfree_rcu()
in do_set_cpus_allowed()") to avoid a circular locking dependency
problem.
It turns out that even kfree_rcu() isn't safe for avoiding
circular locking problem. As reported by kernel test robot,
the following circular locking dependency now exists:
&rdp->nocb_lock --> rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock
Solve this by breaking the rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock chain by moving
the resched_cpu() out from under rcu_node lock.

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS
(for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).
As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct module_notes_attrs.
