Pull namespace updates from Christian Brauner: "This contains substantial namespace infrastructure changes including a new system call, active reference counting, and extensive header cleanups. The branch depends on the shared kbuild branch for -fms-extensions support. Features: - listns() system call Add a new listns() system call that allows userspace to iterate through namespaces in the system. This provides a programmatic interface to discover and inspect namespaces, addressing longstanding limitations: Currently, there is no direct way for userspace to enumerate namespaces. Applications must resort to scanning /proc/*/ns/ across all processes, which is: - Inefficient - requires iterating over all processes - Incomplete - misses namespaces not attached to any running process but kept alive by file descriptors, bind mounts, or parent references - Permission-heavy - requires access to /proc for many processes - No ordering or ownership information - No filtering per namespace type The listns() system call solves these problems: ssize_t listns(const struct ns_id_req *req, u64 *ns_ids, size_t nr_ns_ids, unsigned int flags); struct ns_id_req { __u32 size; __u32 spare; __u64 ns_id; struct /* listns */ { __u32 ns_type; __u32 spare2; __u64 user_ns_id; }; }; Features include: - Pagination support for large namespace sets - Filtering by namespace type (MNT_NS, NET_NS, USER_NS, etc.) - Filtering by owning user namespace - Permission checks respecting namespace isolation - Active Reference Counting Introduce an active reference count that tracks namespace visibility to userspace. A namespace is visible in the following cases: - The namespace is in use by a task - The namespace is persisted through a VFS object (namespace file descriptor or bind-mount) - The namespace is a hierarchical type and is the parent of child namespaces The active reference count does not regulate lifetime (that's still done by the normal reference count) - it only regulates visibility to namespace file handles and listns(). This prevents resurrection of namespaces that are pinned only for internal kernel reasons (e.g., user namespaces held by file->f_cred, lazy TLB references on idle CPUs, etc.) which should not be accessible via (1)-(3). - Unified Namespace Tree Introduce a unified tree structure for all namespaces with: - Fixed IDs assigned to initial namespaces - Lookup based solely on inode number - Maintained list of owned namespaces per user namespace - Simplified rbtree comparison helpers Cleanups - Header Reorganization: - Move namespace types into separate header (ns_common_types.h) - Decouple nstree from ns_common header - Move nstree types into separate header - Switch to new ns_tree_{node,root} structures with helper functions - Use guards for ns_tree_lock - Initial Namespace Reference Count Optimization - Make all reference counts on initial namespaces a nop to avoid pointless cacheline ping-pong for namespaces that can never go away - Drop custom reference count initialization for initial namespaces - Add NS_COMMON_INIT() macro and use it for all namespaces - pid: rely on common reference count behavior - Miscellaneous Cleanups - Rename exit_task_namespaces() to exit_nsproxy_namespaces() - Rename is_initial_namespace() and make argument const - Use boolean to indicate anonymous mount namespace - Simplify owner list iteration in nstree - nsfs: raise SB_I_NODEV, SB_I_NOEXEC, and DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly - nsfs: use inode_just_drop() - pidfs: raise DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly - pidfs: simplify PIDFD_GET__NAMESPACE ioctls - libfs: allow to specify s_d_flags - cgroup: add cgroup namespace to tree after owner is set - nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces() Fixes: - setns(pidfd, ...) race condition Fix a subtle race when using pidfds with setns(). When the target task exits after prepare_nsset() but before commit_nsset(), the namespace's active reference count might have been dropped. If setns() then installs the namespaces, it would bump the active reference count from zero without taking the required reference on the owner namespace, leading to underflow when later decremented. The fix resurrects the ownership chain if necessary - if the caller succeeded in grabbing passive references, the setns() should succeed even if the target task exits or gets reaped. - Return EFAULT on put_user() error instead of success - Make sure references are dropped outside of RCU lock (some namespaces like mount namespace sleep when putting the last reference) - Don't skip active reference count initialization for network namespace - Add asserts for active refcount underflow - Add asserts for initial namespace reference counts (both passive and active) - ipc: enable is_ns_init_id() assertions - Fix kernel-doc comments for internal nstree functions - Selftests - 15 active reference count tests - 9 listns() functionality tests - 7 listns() permission tests - 12 inactive namespace resurrection tests - 3 threaded active reference count tests - commit_creds() active reference tests - Pagination and stress tests - EFAULT handling test - nsid tests fixes" * tag 'namespace-6.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (103 commits) pidfs: simplify PIDFD_GET__NAMESPACE ioctls nstree: fix kernel-doc comments for internal functions nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces() selftests/namespaces: fix nsid tests ns: drop custom reference count initialization for initial namespaces pid: rely on common reference count behavior ns: add asserts for initial namespace active reference counts ns: add asserts for initial namespace reference counts ns: make all reference counts on initial namespace a nop ipc: enable is_ns_init_id() assertions fs: use boolean to indicate anonymous mount namespace ns: rename is_initial_namespace() ns: make is_initial_namespace() argument const nstree: use guards for ns_tree_lock nstree: simplify owner list iteration nstree: switch to new structures nstree: add helper to operate on struct ns_tree_{node,root} nstree: move nstree types into separate header nstree: decouple from ns_common header ns: move namespace types into separate header ...

MIPS: mm: kmalloc tlb_vpn array to avoid stack overflow

2025-11-29T12:36:05Z

Owing to Config4.MMUSizeExt and VTLB/FTLB MMU features later MIPSr2+ cores can have more than 64 TLB entries. Therefore allocate an array for uniquification instead of placing too an small array on the stack. Fixes: 35ad7e181541 ("MIPS: mm: tlb-r4k: Uniquify TLB entries on init") Co-developed-by: Maciej W.

MIPS: kernel: Fix random segmentation faults

2025-11-21T12:24:05Z

Commit 69896119dc9d ("MIPS: vdso: Switch to generic storage implementation") switches to a generic vdso storage, which increases the number of data pages from 1 to 4. But there is only one page reserved, which causes segementation faults depending where the VDSO area is randomized to. To fix this use the same size of reservation and allocation of the VDSO data pages.

MIPS: mm: Prevent a TLB shutdown on initial uniquification

2025-11-21T12:23:21Z

Depending on the particular CPU implementation a TLB shutdown may occur if multiple matching entries are detected upon the execution of a TLBP or the TLBWI/TLBWR instructions. Given that we don't know what entries we have been handed we need to be very careful with the initial TLB setup and avoid all these instructions. Therefore read all the TLB entries one by one with the TLBR instruction, bypassing the content addressing logic, and truncate any large pages in place so as to avoid a case in the second step where an incoming entry for a large page at a lower address overlaps with a replacement entry chosen at another index. Then preinitialize the TLB using addresses outside our usual unique range and avoiding clashes with any entries received, before making the usual call to local_flush_tlb_all(). This fixes (at least) R4x00 cores if TLBP hits multiple matching TLB entries (SGI IP22 PROM for examples sets up all TLBs to the same virtual address). Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

MIPS: Malta: Fix !EVA SOC-it PCI MMIO

2025-11-11T11:58:49Z

Fix a regression that has caused accesses to the PCI MMIO window to complete unclaimed in non-EVA configurations with the SOC-it family of system controllers, preventing PCI devices from working that use MMIO. In the non-EVA case PHYS_OFFSET is set to 0, meaning that PCI_BAR0 is set with an empty mask (and PCI_HEAD4 matches addresses starting from 0 accordingly). Consequently all addresses are matched for incoming DMA accesses from PCI. This seems to confuse the system controller's logic and outgoing bus cycles targeting the PCI MMIO window seem not to make it to the intended devices. This happens as well when a wider mask is used with PCI_BAR0, such as 0x80000000 or 0xe0000000, that makes addresses match that overlap with the PCI MMIO window, which starts at 0x10000000 in our configuration. Set the mask in PCI_BAR0 to 0xf0000000 for non-EVA then, covering the non-EVA maximum 256 MiB of RAM, which is what YAMON does and which used to work correctly up to the offending commit. Set PCI_P2SCMSKL to match PCI_BAR0 as required by the system controller's specification, and match PCI_P2SCMAPL to PCI_HEAD4 for identity mapping.

MIPS: Malta: Use pcibios_align_resource() to block io range

2025-10-22T16:06:31Z

According to Maciej W. Rozycki , the mips_pcibios_init() for malta adjusts root bus IO resource start address to prevent interfering with PIIX4 I/O cycle decoding. Adjusting lower bound leaves PIIX4 IO resources outside of the root bus resource and assign_fixed_resource_on_bus() does not link the resources into the resource tree. Prior to commit ae81aad5c2e1 ("MIPS: PCI: Use pci_enable_resources()") the arch specific pcibios_enable_resources() did not check if the resources were assigned which diverges from what PCI core checks, effectively hiding the PIIX4 IO resources were not properly within the resource tree. After starting to use pcibios_enable_resources() from PCI core, enabling PIIX4 fails: ata_piix 0000:00:0a.1: BAR 0 [io 0x01f0-0x01f7]: not claimed; can't enable device ata_piix 0000:00:0a.1: probe with driver ata_piix failed with error -22 MIPS PCI code already has support for enforcing lower bounds using PCIBIOS_MIN_IO in pcibios_align_resource() without altering the IO window start address itself. Make malta PCI code too to use PCIBIOS_MIN_IO.
