There are two big uses of do_exit. The first is it's design use to be
the guts of the exit(2) system call. The second use is to terminate
a task after something catastrophic has happened like a NULL pointer
in kernel code.
Add a function make_task_dead that is initialy exactly the same as
do_exit to cover the cases where do_exit is called to handle
catastrophic failure. In time this can probably be reduced to just a
light wrapper around do_task_dead. For now keep it exactly the same so
that there will be no behavioral differences introducing this new
concept.
Replace all of the uses of do_exit that use it for catastraphic
task cleanup with make_task_dead to make it clear what the code
is doing.
As part of this rename rewind_stack_do_exit
rewind_stack_and_make_dead.

I completed the first batch of signal changes for v5.17 against
v5.16-rc1 before the SA_IMMUTABLE fixes where completed. Which leaves
me with two lines of development that I want on my signal development
branch both rooted at v5.16-rc1. Especially as I am hoping
to reach the point of being able to remove SA_IMMUTABLE.
Linus merged my SA_IMUTABLE fixes as:
7af959b5d5c8 ("Merge branch 'SA_IMMUTABLE-fixes-for-v5.16-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace")
To avoid rebasing the development changes that are currently complete I am
merging the work I sent upstream to Linus to make my life simpler.
The SA_IMMUTABLE changes as they are described in Linus's merge commit.
Pull exit-vs-signal handling fixes from Eric Biederman:
"This is a small set of changes where debuggers were no longer able to
intercept synchronous SIGTRAP and SIGSEGV, introduced by the exit
cleanups.
This is essentially the change you suggested with all of i's dotted
and the t's crossed so that ptrace can intercept all of the cases it
has been able to intercept the past, and all of the cases that made it
to exit without giving ptrace a chance still don't give ptrace a
chance"

Recently to prevent issues with SECCOMP_RET_KILL and similar signals
being changed before they are delivered SA_IMMUTABLE was added.
Unfortunately this broke debuggers[1][2] which reasonably expect
to be able to trap synchronous SIGTRAP and SIGSEGV even when
the target process is not configured to handle those signals.
Add force_exit_sig and use it instead of force_fatal_sig where
historically the code has directly called do_exit. This has the
implementation benefits of going through the signal exit path
(including generating core dumps) without the danger of allowing
userspace to ignore or change these signals.
This avoids userspace regressions as older kernels exited with do_exit
which debuggers also can not intercept.
In the future is should be possible to improve the quality of
implementation of the kernel by changing some of these force_exit_sig
calls to force_fatal_sig. That can be done where it matters on
a case-by-case basis with careful analysis.

In the event that a tracer changes which signal needs to be delivered
and that signal is currently blocked then the signal needs to be
requeued for later delivery.
With the advent of CLONE_THREAD the kernel has 2 signal queues per
task. The per process queue and the per task queue. Update the code
so that if the signal is removed from the per process queue it is
requeued on the per process queue. This is necessary to make it
appear the signal was never dequeued.
The rr debugger reasonably believes that the state of the process from
the last ptrace_stop it observed until PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT can be recreated
by simply letting a process run. If a SIGKILL interrupts a ptrace_stop
this is not true today.
So return signals to their original queue in ptrace_signal so that
signals that are not delivered appear like they were never dequeued.

Pull zstd update from Nick Terrell:
"Update to zstd-1.4.10.
Add myself as the maintainer of zstd and update the zstd version in
the kernel, which is now 4 years out of date, to a much more recent
zstd release. This includes bug fixes, much more extensive fuzzing,
and performance improvements. And generates the kernel zstd
automatically from upstream zstd, so it is easier to keep the zstd
verison up to date, and we don't fall so far out of date again.
This includes 5 commits that update the zstd library version:
- Adds a new kernel-style wrapper around zstd.
This wrapper API is functionally equivalent to the subset of the
current zstd API that is currently used. The wrapper API changes to
be kernel style so that the symbols don't collide with zstd's
symbols. The update to zstd-1.4.10 maintains the same API and
preserves the semantics, so that none of the callers need to be
updated. All callers are updated in the commit, because there are
zero functional changes.
- Adds an indirection for `lib/decompress_unzstd.c` so it doesn't
depend on the layout of `lib/zstd/` to include every source file.
This allows the next patch to be automatically generated.
- Imports the zstd-1.4.10 source code. This commit is automatically
generated from upstream zstd (https://github.com/facebook/zstd).
- Adds me (terrelln@fb.com) as the maintainer of `lib/zstd`.
- Fixes a newly added build warning for clang.
The discussion around this patchset has been pretty long, so I've
included a FAQ-style summary of the history of the patchset, and why
we are taking this approach.
Why do we need to update?
-------------------------
The zstd version in the kernel is based off of zstd-1.3.1, which is
was released August 20, 2017. Since then zstd has seen many bug fixes
and performance improvements. And, importantly, upstream zstd is
continuously fuzzed by OSS-Fuzz, and bug fixes aren't backported to
older versions. So the only way to sanely get these fixes is to keep
up to date with upstream zstd.
There are no known security issues that affect the kernel, but we need
to be able to update in case there are. And while there are no known
security issues, there are relevant bug fixes. For example the problem
with large kernel decompression has been fixed upstream for over 2
years [1]
Additionally the performance improvements for kernel use cases are
significant. Measured for x86_64 on my Intel i9-9900k @ 3.6 GHz:
- BtrFS zstd compression at levels 1 and 3 is 5% faster
- BtrFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
- SquashFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
- F2FS zstd compression+write at level 3 is 8% faster
- F2FS zstd decompression+read is 20% faster
- ZRAM decompression+read is 30% faster
- Kernel zstd decompression is 35% faster
- Initramfs zstd decompression+build is 5% faster
On top of this, there are significant performance improvements coming
down the line in the next zstd release, and the new automated update
patch generation will allow us to pull them easily.
How is the update patch generated?
----------------------------------
The first two patches are preparation for updating the zstd version.
Then the 3rd patch in the series imports upstream zstd into the
kernel. This patch is automatically generated from upstream. A script
makes the necessary changes and imports it into the kernel. The
changes are:
- Replace all libc dependencies with kernel replacements and rewrite
includes.
- Remove unncessary portability macros like: #if defined(_MSC_VER).
- Use the kernel xxhash instead of bundling it.
This automation gets tested every commit by upstream's continuous
integration. When we cut a new zstd release, we will submit a patch to
the kernel to update the zstd version in the kernel.
The automated process makes it easy to keep the kernel version of zstd
up to date. The current zstd in the kernel shares the guts of the
code, but has a lot of API and minor changes to work in the kernel.
This is because at the time upstream zstd was not ready to be used in
the kernel envrionment as-is. But, since then upstream zstd has
evolved to support being used in the kernel as-is.
Why are we updating in one big patch?
-------------------------------------
The 3rd patch in the series is very large. This is because it is
restructuring the code, so it both deletes the existing zstd, and
re-adds the new structure. Future updates will be directly
proportional to the changes in upstream zstd since the last import.
They will admittidly be large, as zstd is an actively developed
project, and has hundreds of commits between every release. However,
there is no other great alternative.
One option ruled out is to replay every upstream zstd commit. This is
not feasible for several reasons:
- There are over 3500 upstream commits since the zstd version in the
kernel.
- The automation to automatically generate the kernel update was only
added recently, so older commits cannot easily be imported.
- Not every upstream zstd commit builds.
- Only zstd releases are "supported", and individual commits may have
bugs that were fixed before a release.
Another option to reduce the patch size would be to first reorganize
to the new file structure, and then apply the patch. However, the
current kernel zstd is formatted with clang-format to be more
"kernel-like". But, the new method imports zstd as-is, without
additional formatting, to allow for closer correlation with upstream,
and easier debugging. So the patch wouldn't be any smaller.
It also doesn't make sense to import upstream zstd commit by commit
going forward. Upstream zstd doesn't support production use cases
running of the development branch. We have a lot of post-commit
fuzzing that catches many bugs, so indiviudal commits may be buggy,
but fixed before a release. So going forward, I intend to import every
(important) zstd release into the Kernel.
So, while it isn't ideal, updating in one big patch is the only patch
I see forward.
Who is responsible for this code?
---------------------------------
I am. This patchset adds me as the maintainer for zstd. Previously,
there was no tree for zstd patches. Because of that, there were
several patches that either got ignored, or took a long time to merge,
since it wasn't clear which tree should pick them up. I'm officially
stepping up as maintainer, and setting up my tree as the path through
which zstd patches get merged. I'll make sure that patches to the
kernel zstd get ported upstream, so they aren't erased when the next
version update happens.
How is this code tested?
------------------------
I tested every caller of zstd on x86_64 (BtrFS, ZRAM, SquashFS, F2FS,
Kernel, InitRAMFS). I also tested Kernel & InitRAMFS on i386 and
aarch64. I checked both performance and correctness.
Also, thanks to many people in the community who have tested these
patches locally.
Lastly, this code will bake in linux-next before being merged into
v5.16.
Why update to zstd-1.4.10 when zstd-1.5.0 has been released?
------------------------------------------------------------
This patchset has been outstanding since 2020, and zstd-1.4.10 was the
latest release when it was created. Since the update patch is
automatically generated from upstream, I could generate it from
zstd-1.5.0.
However, there were some large stack usage regressions in zstd-1.5.0,
and are only fixed in the latest development branch. And the latest
development branch contains some new code that needs to bake in the
fuzzer before I would feel comfortable releasing to the kernel.
Once this patchset has been merged, and we've released zstd-1.5.1, we
can update the kernel to zstd-1.5.1, and exercise the update process.
You may notice that zstd-1.4.10 doesn't exist upstream. This release
is an artifical release based off of zstd-1.4.9, with some fixes for
the kernel backported from the development branch. I will tag the
zstd-1.4.10 release after this patchset is merged, so the Linux Kernel
is running a known version of zstd that can be debugged upstream.
Why was a wrapper API added?
----------------------------
The first versions of this patchset migrated the kernel to the
upstream zstd API. It first added a shim API that supported the new
upstream API with the old code, then updated callers to use the new
shim API, then transitioned to the new code and deleted the shim API.
However, Cristoph Hellwig suggested that we transition to a kernel
style API, and hide zstd's upstream API behind that. This is because
zstd's upstream API is supports many other use cases, and does not
follow the kernel style guide, while the kernel API is focused on the
kernel's use cases, and follows the kernel style guide.
Where is the previous discussion?
---------------------------------

the discussions in v11, v5, and v1. Sorry for the mix of links, I

Pull netfs, 9p, afs and ceph (partial) foliation from David Howells:
"This converts netfslib, 9p and afs to use folios. It also partially
converts ceph so that it uses folios on the boundaries with netfslib.
To help with this, a couple of folio helper functions are added in the
first two patches.
These patches don't touch fscache and cachefiles as I intend to remove
all the code that deals with pages directly from there. Only nfs and
cifs are using the old fscache I/O API now. The new API uses iov_iter
instead.
Thanks to Jeff Layton, Dominique Martinet and AuriStor for testing and
retesting the patches"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux
Pull selinux fixes from Paul Moore:
"Unfortunately I need to request a revert for two LSM/SELinux patches
that came in via the network tree. The two patches in question add a
new SCTP/LSM hook as well as an SELinux implementation of that LSM
hook. The short version of "why?" is in the commit description of the
revert patch, but I'll copy-n-paste the important bits below to save
some time for the curious:
... Unfortunately these two patches were merged without proper
review (the Reviewed-by and Tested-by tags from Richard Haines
were for previous revisions of these patches that were
significantly different) and there are outstanding objections from
the SELinux maintainers regarding these patches.
Work is currently ongoing to correct the problems identified in
the reverted patches, as well as others that have come up during
review, but it is unclear at this point in time when that work
will be ready for inclusion in the mainline kernel. In the
interest of not keeping objectionable code in the kernel for
multiple weeks, and potentially a kernel release, we are reverting
the two problematic patches.
As usual with these things there is plenty of context to go with this
and I'll try to do my best to provide that now. This effort started
with a report of SCTP client side peel-offs not working correctly with
SELinux, Ondrej Mosnacek put forth a patch which he believed properly
addressed the problem but upon review by the netdev folks Xin Long
described some additional issues and submitted an improved patchset
for review. The SELinux folks reviewed Xin Long's initial patchset and
suggested some changes which resulted in a second patchset (v2) from
Xin Long; this is the patchset that is currently in your tree.
Unfortunately this v2 patchset from Xin Long was merged before it had
spent even just 24 hours on the mailing lists during the early days of
the merge window, a time when many of us were busy doing verification
of the newly released v5.15 kernel as well final review and testing of
our v5.16 pull requests. Making matters worse, upon reviewing the v2
patchset there were both changes which were found objectionable by
SELinux standards as well as additional outstanding SCTP/SELinux
interaction problems. At this point we did two things: resumed working
on a better fix for the SCTP/SELinux issue(s) - thank you Ondrej - and
we asked the networking folks to revert the v2 patchset.
The revert request was obviously rejected, but at the time I believed
it was just going to be an issue for linux-next; I wasn't expecting
something this significant that was merged into the networking tree
during the merge window to make it into your tree in the same window,
yet as of last night that is exactly what happened. While we continue
to try and resolve the SCTP/SELinux problem I am asking once again to
revert the v2 patches and not ship the current
security_sctp_assoc_established() hook in a v5.16-rcX kernel. If I was
confident that we could solve these issues in a week, maybe two, I
would refrain from asking for the revert but our current estimate is
for a minimum of two weeks for the next patch revision. With the
likelihood of additional delays due to normal patch review follow-up
and/or holidays it seems to me that the safest course of action is to
revert the patch both to try and keep some objectionable code out of a
release kernel and limit the chances of any new breakages from such a
change. While the SCTP/SELinux code in v5.15 and earlier has problems,
they are known problems, and I'd like to try and avoid creating new
and different problems while we work to fix things properly.
One final thing to mention: Xin Long's v2 patchset consisted of four
patches, yet this revert is for only the last two. We see the first
two patches as good, reasonable, and not likely to cause an issue. In
an attempt to create a cleaner revert patch we suggest leaving the
first two patches in the tree as they are currently"

ACS-3 introduced the ATA Identify Device Data log as mandatory. A
warning message currently signals to the user if a device does not
report supporting this log page in the log directory page, regardless
of the ATA version of the device. Furthermore, this warning will appear
for all attempts at accessing this missing log page during device
revalidation.
Since it is useless to constantly access the log directory and warn
about this lack of support once we have discovered that the device
does not support this log page, introduce the horkage flag
ATA_HORKAGE_NO_ID_DEV_LOG to mark a device as lacking support for
the Identify Device Data log page. Set this flag when
ata_log_supported() returns false in ata_identify_page_supported().
The warning is printed only if the device ATA level is 10 or above
(ACS-3 or above), and only once on device scan. With this flag set, the
log directory page is not accessed again to test for Identify Device
Data log page support.

MIGRATE_PFN_LOCKED is used to indicate to migrate_vma_prepare() that a
source page was already locked during migrate_vma_collect(). If it
wasn't then the a second attempt is made to lock the page. However if
the first attempt failed it's unlikely a second attempt will succeed,
and the retry adds complexity. So clean this up by removing the retry
and MIGRATE_PFN_LOCKED flag.
Destination pages are also meant to have the MIGRATE_PFN_LOCKED flag
set, but nothing actually checks that.

Add support for AMD SEV and SEV-ES intra-host migration support. Intra
host migration provides a low-cost mechanism for userspace VMM upgrades.
In the common case for intra host migration, we can rely on the normal
ioctls for passing data from one VMM to the next. SEV, SEV-ES, and other
confidential compute environments make most of this information opaque, and
render KVM ioctls such as "KVM_GET_REGS" irrelevant. As a result, we need
the ability to pass this opaque metadata from one VMM to the next. The
easiest way to do this is to leave this data in the kernel, and transfer
ownership of the metadata from one KVM VM (or vCPU) to the next. In-kernel
hand off makes it possible to move any data that would be
unsafe/impossible for the kernel to hand directly to userspace, and
cannot be reproduced using data that can be handed to userspace.

For SEV to work with intra host migration, contents of the SEV info struct
such as the ASID (used to index the encryption key in the AMD SP) and
the list of memory regions need to be transferred to the target VM.
This change adds a commands for a target VMM to get a source SEV VM's sev
info.

Add guest api and guest kernel support for SEV live migration.
Introduces a new hypercall to notify the host of changes to the page
encryption status. If the page is encrypted then it must be migrated
through the SEV firmware or a helper VM sharing the key. If page is
not encrypted then it can be migrated normally by userspace. This new
hypercall is invoked using paravirt_ops.

Commit c597bfddc9e9 ("sched: Provide Kconfig support for default dynamic
preempt mode") changed the selectable config names for the preemption
model. This means a config file must now select
CONFIG_PREEMPT_BEHAVIOUR=y
rather than
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
to get a preemptible kernel. This means all arch config files would need to
be updated - right now they'll all end up with the default
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE_BEHAVIOUR.
Rather than touch a good hundred of config files, restore usage of
CONFIG_PREEMPT{_NONE, _VOLUNTARY}. Make them configure:
o The build-time preemption model when !PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
o The default boot-time preemption model when PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
Add siblings of those configs with the _BUILD suffix to unconditionally
designate the build-time preemption model (PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is built with
the "highest" preemption model it supports, aka PREEMPT). Downstream
configs should by now all be depending / selected by CONFIG_PREEMPTION
rather than CONFIG_PREEMPT, so only a few sites need patching up.

The recent rework of PCI/MSI[X] masking moved the non-mask checks from the
low level accessors into the higher level mask/unmask functions.
This missed the fact that these accessors can be invoked from other places
as well. The missing checks break XEN-PV which sets pci_msi_ignore_mask and
also violates the virtual MSIX and the msi_attrib.maskbit protections.
Instead of sprinkling checks all over the place, lift them back into the
low level accessor functions. To avoid checking three different conditions
combine them into one property of msi_desc::msi_attrib.

Some ATA drives are very slow to respond to READ_LOG_EXT and
READ_LOG_DMA_EXT commands issued from ata_dev_configure() when the
device is revalidated right after resuming a system or inserting the
ATA adapter driver (e.g. ahci). The default 5s timeout
(ATA_EH_CMD_DFL_TIMEOUT) used for these commands is too short, causing
errors during the device configuration. Ex:
...
ata9: SATA max UDMA/133 abar m524288@0x9d200000 port 0x9d200400 irq 209
ata9: SATA link up 6.0 Gbps (SStatus 133 SControl 300)
ata9.00: ATA-9: XXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXX, max UDMA/133
ata9.00: qc timeout (cmd 0x2f)
ata9.00: Read log page 0x00 failed, Emask 0x4
ata9.00: Read log page 0x00 failed, Emask 0x40
ata9.00: NCQ Send/Recv Log not supported
ata9.00: Read log page 0x08 failed, Emask 0x40
ata9.00: 27344764928 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 NCQ (depth 32), AA
ata9.00: Read log page 0x00 failed, Emask 0x40
ata9.00: ATA Identify Device Log not supported
ata9.00: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x40)
ata9: SATA link up 6.0 Gbps (SStatus 133 SControl 300)
ata9.00: configured for UDMA/133
...
The timeout error causes a soft reset of the drive link, followed in
most cases by a successful revalidation as that give enough time to the
drive to become fully ready to quickly process the read log commands.
However, in some cases, this also fails resulting in the device being
dropped.
Fix this by using adding the ata_eh_revalidate_timeouts entries for the
READ_LOG_EXT and READ_LOG_DMA_EXT commands. This defines a timeout
increased to 15s, retriable one time.

Pull exit cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"While looking at some issues related to the exit path in the kernel I
found several instances where the code is not using the existing
abstractions properly.
This set of changes introduces force_fatal_sig a way of sending a
signal and not allowing it to be caught, and corrects the misuse of
the existing abstractions that I found.
A lot of the misuse of the existing abstractions are silly things such
as doing something after calling a no return function, rolling BUG by
hand, doing more work than necessary to terminate a kernel thread, or
calling do_exit(SIGKILL) instead of calling force_sig(SIGKILL).
In the review a deficiency in force_fatal_sig and force_sig_seccomp
where ptrace or sigaction could prevent the delivery of the signal was
found. I have added a change that adds SA_IMMUTABLE to change that
makes it impossible to interrupt the delivery of those signals, and
allows backporting to fix force_sig_seccomp
And Arnd found an issue where a function passed to kthread_run had the
wrong prototype, and after my cleanup was failing to build."

Pull prctl updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the missing prctl uapi pieces for PR_SCHED_CORE.
In order to activate core scheduling the caller is expected to specify
the scope of the new core scheduling domain.
For example, passing 2 in the 4th argument of
prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_CREATE, <pid>, 2, 0);
would indicate that the new core scheduling domain encompasses all
tasks in the process group of <pid>. Specifying 0 would only create a
core scheduling domain for the thread identified by <pid> and 2 would
encompass the whole thread-group of <pid>.
Note, the values 0, 1, and 2 correspond to PIDTYPE_PID, PIDTYPE_TGID,
and PIDTYPE_PGID. A first version tried to expose those values
directly to which I objected because:
- PIDTYPE_* is an enum that is kernel internal which we should not
expose to userspace directly.
- PIDTYPE_* indicates what a given struct pid is used for it doesn't
express a scope.
But what the 4th argument of PR_SCHED_CORE prctl() expresses is the
scope of the operation, i.e. the scope of the core scheduling domain
at creation time. So Eugene's patch now simply introduces three new
defines PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_THREAD, PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_THREAD_GROUP,
and PR_SCHED_CORE_SCOPE_PROCESS_GROUP. They simply express what
happens.
This has been on the mailing list for quite a while with all relevant
scheduler folks Cced. I announced multiple times that I'd pick this up
if I don't see or her anyone else doing it. None of this touches
proper scheduler code but only concerns uapi so I think this is fine.
With core scheduling being quite common now for vm managers (e.g.
moving individual vcpu threads into their own core scheduling domain)
and container managers (e.g. moving the init process into its own core
scheduling domain and letting all created children inherit it) having
to rely on raw numbers passed as the 4th argument in prctl() is a bit
annoying and everyone is starting to come up with their own defines"

Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner:
"Various places in the kernel have picked up pidfds.
The two most recent additions have probably been the ability to use
pidfds in bpf maps and the usage of pidfds in mm-based syscalls such
as process_mrelease() and process_madvise().
The same pattern to turn a pidfd into a struct task exists in two
places. One of those places used PIDTYPE_TGID while the other one used
PIDTYPE_PID even though it is clearly documented in all pidfd-helpers
that pidfds __currently__ only refer to thread-group leaders (subject
to change in the future if need be).
This isn't a bug per se but has the potential to be one if we allow
pidfds to refer to individual threads. If that happens we want to
audit all codepaths that make use of them to ensure they can deal with
pidfds refering to individual threads.
This adds a simple helper to turn a pidfd into a struct task making it
easy to grep for such places. Plus, it gets rid of code-duplication"
