Pull 'struct fd' updates from Al Viro:
"Just the 'struct fd' layout change, with conversion to accessor
helpers"
* tag 'pull-stable-struct_fd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
add struct fd constructors, get rid of __to_fd()
struct fd: representation change
introduce fd_file(), convert all accessors to it.

The do_vma_munmap() wrapper existed for callers that didn't have a vma
iterator and needed to check the vma mseal status prior to calling the
underlying munmap(). All callers now use a vma iterator and since the
mseal check has been moved to do_vmi_align_munmap() and the vmas are
aligned, this function can just be called instead.
do_vmi_align_munmap() can no longer be static as ipc/shm is using it and
it is exported via the mm.h header.

For any changes of struct fd representation we need to
turn existing accesses to fields into calls of wrappers.
Accesses to struct fd::flags are very few (3 in linux/file.h,
1 in net/socket.c, 3 in fs/overlayfs/file.c and 3 more in
explicit initializers).
Those can be dealt with in the commit converting to
new layout; accesses to struct fd::file are too many for that.
This commit converts (almost) all of f.file to
fd_file(f). It's not entirely mechanical ('file' is used as
a member name more than just in struct fd) and it does not
even attempt to distinguish the uses in pointer context from
those in boolean context; the latter will be eventually turned
into a separate helper (fd_empty()).
NOTE: mass conversion to fd_empty(), tempting as it
might be, is a bad idea; better do that piecewise in commit
that convert from fdget...() to CLASS(...).

const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function

* Code formatting was adjusted in xfs_sysctl.c to comply with code
conventions. The xfs_stats_clear_proc_handler,
xfs_panic_mask_proc_handler and xfs_deprecated_dointvec_minmax where
adjusted.
* The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified.
This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into
another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the
proc_handler migration.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
"The most prominent change this time is the kmem_buckets based
hardening of kmalloc() allocations from Kees Cook.
We have also extended the kmalloc() alignment guarantees for
non-power-of-two sizes in a way that benefits rust.
The rest are various cleanups and non-critical fixups.
- Dedicated bucket allocator (Kees Cook)
This series [1] enhances the probabilistic defense against heap
spraying/grooming of CONFIG_RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES from last year.
kmalloc() users that are known to be useful for exploits can get
completely separate set of kmalloc caches that can't be shared with
other users. The first converted users are alloc_msg() and
memdup_user().
The hardening is enabled by CONFIG_SLAB_BUCKETS.
- Extended kmalloc() alignment guarantees (Vlastimil Babka)
For years now we have guaranteed natural alignment for power-of-two
allocations, but nothing was defined for other sizes (in practice,
we have two such buckets, kmalloc-96 and kmalloc-192).
To avoid unnecessary padding in the rust layer due to its alignment
rules, extend the guarantee so that the alignment is at least the
largest power-of-two divisor of the requested size.
This fits what rust needs, is a superset of the existing
power-of-two guarantee, and does not in practice change the layout
(and thus does not add overhead due to padding) of the kmalloc-96
and kmalloc-192 caches, unless slab debugging is enabled for them.
- Cleanups and non-critical fixups (Chengming Zhou, Suren
Baghdasaryan, Matthew Willcox, Alex Shi, and Vlastimil Babka)
Various tweaks related to the new alloc profiling code, folio
conversion, debugging and more leftovers after SLAB"

The msg subsystem is a common target for exploiting[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
use-after-free type confusion flaws in the kernel for both read and write
primitives. Avoid having a user-controlled dynamically-size allocation
share the global kmalloc cache by using a separate set of kmalloc buckets

Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
- Remove sentinel elements from ctl_table structs in kernel/*
Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size
and runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. Removals for
net/, io_uring/, mm/, ipc/ and security/ are set to go into mainline
through their respective subsystems making the next release the most
likely place where the final series that removes the check for
proc_name == NULL will land.
This adds to removals already in arch/, drivers/ and fs/.
- Adjust ctl_table definitions and references to allow constification
- Remove unused ctl_table function arguments
- Move non-const elements from ctl_table to ctl_table_header
- Make ctl_table pointers const in ctl_table_root structure
Making the static ctl_table structs const will increase safety by
keeping the pointers to proc_handler functions in .rodata. Though no
ctl_tables where made const in this PR, the ground work for making
that possible has started with these changes sent by Thomas
Weißschuh.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Complete rework of garbage collection of AF_UNIX sockets.
AF_UNIX is prone to forming reference count cycles due to fd
passing functionality. New method based on Tarjan's Strongly
Connected Components algorithm should be both faster and remove a
lot of workarounds we accumulated over the years.
- Add TCP fraglist GRO support, allowing chaining multiple TCP
packets and forwarding them together. Useful for small switches /
routers which lack basic checksum offload in some scenarios (e.g.
PPPoE).
- Support using SMP threads for handling packet backlog i.e. packet
processing from software interfaces and old drivers which don't use
NAPI. This helps move the processing out of the softirq jumble.
- Continue work of converting from rtnl lock to RCU protection.
Don't require rtnl lock when reading: IPv6 routing FIB, IPv6
address labels, netdev threaded NAPI sysfs files, bonding driver's
sysfs files, MPLS devconf, IPv4 FIB rules, netns IDs, tcp metrics,
TC Qdiscs, neighbor entries, ARP entries via ioctl(SIOCGARP), a lot
of the link information available via rtnetlink.
- Small optimizations from Eric to UDP wake up handling, memory
accounting, RPS/RFS implementation, TCP packet sizing etc.
- Allow direct page recycling in the bulk API used by XDP, for +2%
PPS.
- Support peek with an offset on TCP sockets.
- Add MPTCP APIs for querying last time packets were received/sent/acked
and whether MPTCP "upgrade" succeeded on a TCP socket.
- Add intra-node communication shortcut to improve SMC performance.
- Add IPv6 (and IPv{4,6}-over-IPv{4,6}) support to the GTP protocol
driver.
- Add HSR-SAN (RedBOX) mode of operation to the HSR protocol driver.
- Add reset reasons for tracing what caused a TCP reset to be sent.
- Introduce direction attribute for xfrm (IPSec) states. State can be
used either for input or output packet processing.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Add bitmap_{read,write}(), bitmap_size(), expose BYTES_TO_BITS().
This required touch-ups and renaming of a few existing users.
- Add Endian-dependent __counted_by_{le,be} annotations.
- Make building selftests "quieter" by printing summaries like
"CC object.o" rather than full commands with all the arguments.
Netfilter:
- Use GFP_KERNEL to clone elements, to deal better with OOM
situations and avoid failures in the .commit step.
BPF:
- Add eBPF JIT for ARCv2 CPUs.
- Support attaching kprobe BPF programs through kprobe_multi link in
a session mode, meaning, a BPF program is attached to both function
entry and return, the entry program can decide if the return
program gets executed and the entry program can share u64 cookie
value with return program. "Session mode" is a common use-case for
tetragon and bpftrace.
- Add the ability to specify and retrieve BPF cookie for raw
tracepoint programs in order to ease migration from classic to raw
tracepoints.
- Add an internal-only BPF per-CPU instruction for resolving per-CPU
memory addresses and implement support in x86, ARM64 and RISC-V
JITs. This allows inlining functions which need to access per-CPU
state.
- Optimize x86 BPF JIT's emit_mov_imm64, and add support for various
atomics in bpf_arena which can be JITed as a single x86
instruction. Support BPF arena on ARM64.
- Add a new bpf_wq API for deferring events and refactor
process-context bpf_timer code to keep common code where possible.
- Harden the BPF verifier's and/or/xor value tracking.
- Introduce crypto kfuncs to let BPF programs call kernel crypto
APIs.
- Support bpf_tail_call_static() helper for BPF programs with GCC 13.
- Add bpf_preempt_{disable,enable}() kfuncs in order to allow a BPF
program to have code sections where preemption is disabled.
Driver API:
- Skip software TC processing completely if all installed rules are
marked as HW-only, instead of checking the HW-only flag rule by
rule.
- Add support for configuring PoE (Power over Ethernet), similar to
the already existing support for PoDL (Power over Data Line)
config.
- Initial bits of a queue control API, for now allowing a single
queue to be reset without disturbing packet flow to other queues.
- Common (ethtool) statistics for hardware timestamping.
Tests and tooling:
- Remove the need to create a config file to run the net forwarding
tests so that a naive "make run_tests" can exercise them.
- Define a method of writing tests which require an external endpoint
to communicate with (to send/receive data towards the test
machine). Add a few such tests.
- Create a shared code library for writing Python tests. Expose the
YAML Netlink library from tools/ to the tests for easy Netlink
access.
- Move netfilter tests under net/, extend them, separate performance
tests from correctness tests, and iron out issues found by running
them "on every commit".
- Refactor BPF selftests to use common network helpers.
- Further work filling in YAML definitions of Netlink messages for:
nftables, team driver, bonding interfaces, vlan interfaces, VF
info, TC u32 mark, TC police action.
- Teach Python YAML Netlink to decode attribute policies.
- Extend the definition of the "indexed array" construct in the specs
to cover arrays of scalars rather than just nests.
- Add hyperlinks between definitions in generated Netlink docs.
Drivers:
- Make sure unsupported flower control flags are rejected by drivers,
and make more drivers report errors directly to the application
rather than dmesg (large number of driver changes from Asbjørn
Sloth Tønnesen).
- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- Broadcom (bnxt):
- support multiple RSS contexts and steering traffic to them
- support XDP metadata
- make page pool allocations more NUMA aware
- Intel (100G, ice, idpf):

To be able to constify instances of struct ctl_tables it is necessary to
remove ways through which non-const versions are exposed from the
sysctl core.
One of these is the ctl_table_arg member of struct ctl_table_header.
Constify this reference as a prerequisite for the full constification of
struct ctl_table instances.

All parameters of posix messages queues (queues_max/msg_max/msgsize_max)
end up being limited by RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE. The code in mqueue_get_inode is
where that limiting happens.
The RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE is bound to the user namespace and is counted
hierarchically.
We can allow root in the user namespace to modify the posix messages
queues parameters.

Patch series "Allow to change ipc/mq sysctls inside ipc namespace", v3.
Right now ipc and mq limits count as per ipc namespace, but only real root
can change them. By default, the current values of these limits are such
that it can only be reduced. Since only root can change the values, it is
impossible to reduce these limits in the rootless container.
We can allow limit changes within ipc namespace because mq parameters are
limited by RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE and ipc parameters are not limited to anything
other than cgroups.
This patch (of 3):
Rootless containers are not allowed to modify kernel IPC parameters.
All default limits are set to such high values that in fact there are no
limits at all. All limits are not inherited and are initialized to
default values when a new ipc_namespace is created.
For new ipc_namespace:
size_t ipc_ns.shm_ctlmax = SHMMAX; // (ULONG_MAX - (1UL << 24))
size_t ipc_ns.shm_ctlall = SHMALL; // (ULONG_MAX - (1UL << 24))
int ipc_ns.shm_ctlmni = IPCMNI; // (1 << 15)
int ipc_ns.shm_rmid_forced = 0;
unsigned int ipc_ns.msg_ctlmax = MSGMAX; // 8192
unsigned int ipc_ns.msg_ctlmni = MSGMNI; // 32000
unsigned int ipc_ns.msg_ctlmnb = MSGMNB; // 16384
The shm_tot (total amount of shared pages) has also ceased to be global,
it is located in ipc_namespace and is not inherited from anywhere.
In such conditions, it cannot be said that these limits limit anything.
The real limiter for them is cgroups.
If we allow rootless containers to change these parameters, then it can
only be reduced.

Shrink shmem's stack usage by eliminating the pseudo-vma from its folio
allocation. alloc_pages_mpol(gfp, order, pol, ilx, nid) becomes the
principal actor for passing mempolicy choice down to __alloc_pages(),
rather than vma_alloc_folio(gfp, order, vma, addr, hugepage).
vma_alloc_folio() and alloc_pages() remain, but as wrappers around
alloc_pages_mpol(). alloc_pages_bulk_*() untouched, except to provide the
additional args to policy_nodemask(), which subsumes policy_node().
Cleanup throughout, cutting out some unhelpful "helpers".
It would all be much simpler without MPOL_INTERLEAVE, but that adds a
dynamic to the constant mpol: complicated by v3.6 commit 09c231cb8bfd
("tmpfs: distribute interleave better across nodes"), which added ino bias
to the interleave, hidden from mm/mempolicy.c until this commit.
Hence "ilx" throughout, the "interleave index". Originally I thought it
could be done just with nid, but that's wrong: the nodemask may come from
the shared policy layer below a shmem vma, or it may come from the task
layer above a shmem vma; and without the final nodemask then nodeid cannot
be decided. And how ilx is applied depends also on page order.
The interleave index is almost always irrelevant unless MPOL_INTERLEAVE:
with one exception in alloc_pages_mpol(), where the NO_INTERLEAVE_INDEX
passed down from vma-less alloc_pages() is also used as hint not to use
THP-style hugepage allocation - to avoid the overhead of a hugepage arg
(though I don't understand why we never just added a GFP bit for THP - if
it actually needs a different allocation strategy from other pages of the
same order). vma_alloc_folio() still carries its hugepage arg here, but
it is not used, and should be removed when agreed.
get_vma_policy() no longer allows a NULL vma: over time I believe we've
eradicated all the places which used to need it e.g. swapoff and madvise
used to pass NULL vma to read_swap_cache_async(), but now know the vma.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"Long ago we set out to remove the kitchen sink on kernel/sysctl.c
arrays and placings sysctls to their own sybsystem or file to help
avoid merge conflicts. Matthew Wilcox pointed out though that if we're
going to do that we might as well also *save* space while at it and
try to remove the extra last sysctl entry added at the end of each
array, a sentintel, instead of bloating the kernel by adding a new
sentinel with each array moved.
Doing that was not so trivial, and has required slowing down the moves
of kernel/sysctl.c arrays and measuring the impact on size by each new
move.
The complex part of the effort to help reduce the size of each sysctl
is being done by the patient work of el señor Don Joel Granados. A lot
of this is truly painful code refactoring and testing and then trying
to measure the savings of each move and removing the sentinels.
Although Joel already has code which does most of this work,
experience with sysctl moves in the past shows is we need to be
careful due to the slew of odd build failures that are possible due to
the amount of random Kconfig options sysctls use.
To that end Joel's work is split by first addressing the major
housekeeping needed to remove the sentinels, which is part of this
merge request. The rest of the work to actually remove the sentinels
will be done later in future kernel releases.
The preliminary math is showing this will all help reduce the overall
build time size of the kernel and run time memory consumed by the
kernel by about ~64 bytes per array where we are able to remove each
sentinel in the future. That also means there is no more bloating the
kernel with the extra ~64 bytes per array moved as no new sentinels
are created"

Turn 'semadj' in 'struct sem_undo' into a flexible array.
The advantages are:
- save the size of a pointer when the new undo structure is allocated
- avoid some always ugly pointer arithmetic to get the address of semadj
- avoid an indirection when the array is accessed
While at it, use struct_size() to compute the size of the new undo
structure.

We make these changes in order to prepare __register_sysctl_table and
its callers for when we remove the sentinel element (empty element at
the end of ctl_table arrays). We don't actually remove any sentinels in
this commit, but we *do* make sure to use ARRAY_SIZE so the table_size
is available when the removal occurs.
We add a table_size argument to __register_sysctl_table and adjust
callers, all of which pass ctl_table pointers and need an explicit call
to ARRAY_SIZE. We implement a size calculation in register_net_sysctl in
order to forward the size of the array pointer received from the network
register calls.
The new table_size argument does not yet have any effect in the
init_header call which is still dependent on the sentinel's presence.
table_size *does* however drive the `kzalloc` allocation in
__register_sysctl_table with no adverse effects as the allocated memory
is either one element greater than the calculated ctl_table array (for
the calls in ipc_sysctl.c, mq_sysctl.c and ucount.c) or the exact size
of the calculated ctl_table array (for the call from sysctl_net.c and
register_sysctl). This approach will allows us to "just" remove the
sentinel without further changes to __register_sysctl_table as
table_size will represent the exact size for all the callers at that
point.

The shm already has the vma iterator in position for a write.
do_vmi_munmap() searches for the correct position and aligns the write, so
it is not the right function to use in this case.
The shm VMA tree modification is similar to the brk munmap situation, the
vma iterator is in position and the VMA is already known. This patch
generalizes the brk munmap function do_brk_munmap() to be used for any
other callers with the vma iterator already in position to munmap a VMA.

Instead of waiting for an RCU grace period between each ipc_namespace
structure that is being freed, wait an RCU grace period for every batch
of ipc_namespace structures.
Thanks to Al Viro for the suggestion of the helper function.
This speeds up the run time of the test case that allocates ipc_namespaces
in a loop from 6 minutes, to a little over 1 second:

Currently the ipc namespace allocation will fail when there are
ipc_namespace structures pending to be freed. This results in the
simple test case below, as well as some real world workloads, to
get allocation failures even when the number of ipc namespaces in
actual use is way below the limit.
int main()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
if (unshare(CLONE_NEWIPC) < 0)
error(EXIT_FAILURE, errno, "unshare");
}
}
Make the allocation of an ipc_namespace wait for pending frees,
so it will succeed.

Convert to struct mnt_idmap.
Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in
256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts").
This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap.
Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a
mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to
conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces
that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers
without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for
bugs.
Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the
really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two
eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems
only operate on struct mnt_idmap.

When __do_semtimedop() goes to sleep because it has to wait for a
semaphore value becoming zero or becoming bigger than some threshold, it
links the on-stack sem_queue to the sem_array, then goes to sleep
without holding a reference on the sem_array.
When __do_semtimedop() comes back out of sleep, one of two things must
happen:
a) We prove that the on-stack sem_queue has been disconnected from the
(possibly freed) sem_array, making it safe to return from the stack
frame that the sem_queue exists in.
b) We stabilize our reference to the sem_array, lock the sem_array, and
detach the sem_queue from the sem_array ourselves.
sem_array has RCU lifetime, so for case (b), the reference can be
stabilized inside an RCU read-side critical section by locklessly
checking whether the sem_queue is still connected to the sem_array.
However, the current code does the lockless check on sem_queue before
starting an RCU read-side critical section, so the result of the
lockless check immediately becomes useless.
Fix it by doing rcu_read_lock() before the lockless check. Now RCU
ensures that if we observe the object being on our queue, the object
can't be freed until rcu_read_unlock().
This bug is only hittable on kernel builds with full preemption support
(either CONFIG_PREEMPT or PREEMPT_DYNAMIC with preempt=full).

Shared memory segments can be created that are backed by hugetlb pages.
When this happens, the vmas associated with any mappings (shmat) are
marked VM_HUGETLB, yet the vm_ops for such mappings are provided by
ipc/shm (shm_vm_ops). There is a mechanism to call the underlying hugetlb
vm_ops, and this is done for most operations. However, it is not done for
open and close.
This was not an issue until the introduction of the hugetlb vma_lock.
This lock structure is pointed to by vm_private_data and the open/close
vm_ops help maintain this structure. The special hugetlb routine called
at fork took care of structure updates at fork time. However,
vma_splitting is not properly handled for ipc shared memory mappings
backed by hugetlb pages. This can result in a "kernel NULL pointer
dereference" BUG or use after free as two vmas point to the same lock
structure.
Update the shm open and close routines to always call the underlying open
and close routines.

The msg_bytes and msg_hdrs atomic counters are frequently updated when IPC
msg queue is in heavy use, causing heavy cache bounce and overhead.
Change them to percpu_counter greatly improve the performance. Since
there is one percpu struct per namespace, additional memory cost is
minimal. Reading of the count done in msgctl call, which is infrequent.
So the need to sum up the counts in each CPU is infrequent.
