2026-08-07sched/topology: Restore SD_PREFER_SIBLING in domains with asymmetric capacityRicardo Neri1-4/+0
Commit 9c63e84db29b ("sched/core: Disable SD_PREFER_SIBLING on asymmetric CPU capacity domains") removed the SD_PREFER_SIBLING from the domains with asymmetric capacity. This was done to avoid spreading tasks to sibling scheduling groups with less capacity, but this does not happen: checks for capacity in update_sd_pick_busiest(), sched_balance_find_src_group(), and sched_balance_find_src_rq() prevent migrations from high- to low-capacity CPUs if the busiest group is not overloaded. The cluster topology is a notable example: some systems have scheduling domains spanning CPUs of asymmetric capacity, grouped into two or more equal-capacity clusters sharing an L2 cache. When CONFIG_SCHED_CLUSTER is enabled, SD_PREFER_SIBLING is needed in the domain to spread load across these clusters. CPUs with spare capacity, big or small, have always helped overloaded groups. Once the overloading condition disappears, misfit load will still be used to move high-utilization tasks to bigger CPUs if they have spare capacity. Adding the SD_PREFER_SIBLING flag shifts load balancing in shared-LLC domains from equalizing the number of idle CPUs to equalizing the number of running tasks. This enables migrations among clusters from newly-idle load balance, where the outgoing task is already dequeued but the CPU has not yet transitioned to idle.

2026-08-07sched/fair: Allow load balancing between CPUs of identical capacityRicardo Neri1-1/+8
sched_balance_find_src_rq() avoids selecting a runqueue with a single running task as busiest if doing so results in migrating the task to a CPU with less than ~5% of extra capacity. It also unintentionally prevents migrations between CPUs of identical capacity. When CONFIG_SCHED_CLUSTER is enabled, load should be balanced across clusters of CPUs with the same capacity. Allowing migration between CPUs of identical capacity is necessary to meet this goal. Use get_actual_cpu_capacity() to reflect architectural capacity as well as diminished capacity due to hardware or cpufreq pressure. Guard this check with the sched_cluster_active static key so that systems without cluster topology are unaffected.

2026-08-07sched/fair: Skip misfit load accounting when the destination CPU cannot helpRicardo Neri1-4/+17
In domains with asymmetric capacity, identifying misfit load in a scheduling group is not useful when the destination CPU cannot help (i.e., its capacity exceeds the group's maximum CPU capacity by less than ~5%). In such cases, it also prevents load balance among clusters of equal capacity when CONFIG_SCHED_CLUSTER is enabled. This happens because update_sd_pick_busiest() skips candidate groups of type misfit_task if the destination CPU has similar capacity. Skipping misfit load accounting in this situation allows the group to be classified as has_spare or fully_busy and lets load balancing proceed. Keep marking scheduling groups as overloaded when misfit tasks are present. The sg_overloaded flag propagates to the root domain and allows bigger CPUs in it to help via newly idle balance.

2026-08-07sched/fair: Check CPU capacity before comparing group types during load balanceRicardo Neri1-11/+11
update_sd_pick_busiest() may incorrectly select a fully_busy group as the busiest group when its per-CPU capacity exceeds that of the destination CPU. This happens because the type of busiest group is initialized to group_has_spare and allows the fully_busy group to win the type comparison. update_sd_pick_busiest() should not choose a candidate scheduling group with at most one runnable task if its per-CPU capacity is greater than that of the destination CPU. Such a check already exists, but it is done too late: after the type comparison, preventing a subsequent fully_busy group of equal per-CPU capacity from being correctly selected. Move this check to occur before comparing group types.

2026-08-07sched/fair: Do not skip CPUs of similar capacity with busy SMT siblingsRicardo Neri1-3/+11
When picking a busiest CPU with only one running task, the function sched_balance_find_src_rq() skips candidate CPUs if the destination CPU has less than ~5% extra capacity. This condition only holds if all the SMT siblings of a CPU are idle. SMT siblings share the computing resources of a physical core and this results in reduced capacity if more than one sibling is busy. Skipping a CPU as described would prevent the load balancer from pulling tasks from a scheduling group previously and correctly identified as group_smt_balance (i.e., one with more than one task running). Do not skip a candidate CPU of similar capacity if it has busy SMT siblings.

2026-08-07sched/fair: Prefer fully idle cores for NOHZ balancingAndrea Righi1-11/+44
find_new_ilb() selects the first idle housekeeping CPU without considering whether another thread is running on the same physical core. On an SMT system, the idle load balancer can therefore activate both siblings even when another housekeeping CPU has an entirely idle core. On most SMT systems, this is not problematic because the idle load balancer is a short-lived activity and the transient wakeup of a sibling has negligible performance impact. However, this can be particularly costly on NVIDIA Olympus cores used in Vera. Briefly activating an otherwise idle sibling can reduce the performance available to the other sibling and this effect does not necessarily end once the activated sibling becomes idle: after the ILB finishes and its CPU enters WFI, full single-thread performance is restored only after the sibling has remained idle for a qualification interval (10 Ki cycles on the tested Vera system). Repeated short sibling wakeups can therefore sustain the interference even with little actual overlap. Prevent this by preferring an idle housekeeping CPU whose entire SMT core is idle. Retain the first idle CPU as a fallback when no fully idle core is available, so NOHZ balancing continues to make forward progress. Once a partially busy core has been examined, skip its remaining SMT siblings to avoid repeating the core-idle check on wide SMT systems. Tests performed using an ad hoc GEMM benchmark running one CPU-intensive task per SMT core within its CPU affinity mask improved from approximately 6.2 TFLOP/s to 9.4 TFLOP/s. Note that this preference may wake a fully idle physical core instead of using an idle sibling of an active core, potentially increasing ILB wakeup latency or energy consumption on some architectures. It may also scan additional CPUs before selecting the one to run the ILB. The selection falls back to the first idle CPU when no fully idle SMT core is available. Non-SMT systems continue to select the first idle housekeeping CPU.

2026-08-07perf/core: Fix group leader use-after-free after sibling detachAditya Chillara1-30/+37
perf_group_detach() handles leader and sibling detach differently. When the group leader is detached, all siblings are promoted to singleton events and their group_leader pointer is reset to themselves. When a sibling is detached, it is removed from the leader's sibling_list, but its group_leader pointer is left pointing at the old leader. That is harmless when the sibling is being closed and freed immediately, as in the DETACH_DEAD path. It is not safe when the sibling is detached but kept alive, such as during CPU hotplug with DETACH_GROUP. In that case the sibling is removed from the context, while its file descriptor can still keep it alive. A typical failing sequence is: - A group contains leader L and sibling S. - CPU hot-unplug detaches S with DETACH_GROUP, removing it from L->sibling_list but leaving S->group_leader == L. - L is later closed and freed. - A PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP ioctl on S follows S->group_leader and dereferences the freed leader. This was reproduced by running the perf event fuzzer, CPU hotplug, and a stress workload concurrently: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 006b6b6b6b6b6cdb CPU: 2 PID: 12489 Comm: perf_fuzzer 6.18.7 PREEMPT pc : perf_ioctl+0x34c/0xc68 x20: ffffff89a3fa2c70 x8 : 6b6b6b6b6b6b6b6b Code: 943c4a0e 340047a0 f9404a94 f9411e88 (f940b908) Call trace: perf_ioctl+0x34c/0xc68 (P) __arm64_sys_ioctl+0xa0/0xf4 invoke_syscall+0x58/0xe4 el0_svc_common+0xa8/0xdc do_el0_svc+0x1c/0x28 el0_svc+0x40/0xc0 el0t_64_sync_handler+0x68/0xdc el0t_64_sync+0x1c4/0x1c8 The fault happened in perf_ioctl(), where perf_event_for_each() follows the stale group_leader pointer and perf_event_for_each_child() then dereferences the freed leader's context.

2026-08-07perf: Reject exited events as group leadersKyle Zeng1-1/+7
perf_event_remove_on_exec() sets remove-on-exec events to the EXIT state and detaches their group relationships. The event's file descriptor can remain open, however, and perf_event_open() currently accepts that event as a group leader because its early validation rejects only REVOKED and DEAD events. A new sibling can consequently be linked to the detached leader. When the leader is closed, perf_group_detach() observes that its PERF_ATTACH_GROUP bit is already clear and skips the new sibling. The sibling then retains a group_leader pointer to the freed event. Reject group leaders in the EXIT state. Perform the check while holding the shared context mutex so that an exec in the target task cannot detach the leader between validation and group attachment.

2026-08-07tracing/lock: Use TRACE_EVENT_FN() for contended_releaseDmitry Ilvokhin1-0/+4
queued_spin_unlock() gates its contended_release trace call behind a static branch, so a NOP sits on the unlock path even while the tracepoint is disabled. Removing that requires replacing the unlock implementation only while contended_release is enabled, which needs a callback when the tracepoint is toggled. Convert contended_release to TRACE_EVENT_FN() and add weak no-op arch_contended_release_trace_reg()/arch_contended_release_trace_unreg() hooks. The default hooks are empty, so this is a no-op until an architecture overrides them. No functional change intended.

2026-08-07locking/qspinlock: Add contended_release tracepointDmitry Ilvokhin2-0/+42
Unlike mutex and rw_semaphore, qspinlock has no owner field, so "perf lock contention --lock-owner" cannot attribute a contended spinlock to its holder. The waiter-side contention_begin event records that a spinlock is contended, but not by whom. Firing contended_release in the holder's context at unlock is the only way to capture the holder of a contended spinlock. Combine the contention check, trace call and release in an out-of-line queued_spin_release_traced() so the compiler need not preserve the lock pointer in a callee-saved register across the call. The check in queued_spin_unlock() is paid on every unlock, even while the tracepoint is disabled: a static-branch NOP on x86_64, and a few more instructions to manage a stack frame elsewhere. Gate it behind CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS_TRACE_CONTENDED_RELEASE (default n) so nobody pays for a tracepoint they do not use. Sleeping locks fire contended_release regardless. On x86 this generic path is used only with PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=n (e.g. defconfig). PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=y kernels keep the paravirt static_call unlock and are wired up separately. All below are with the QUEUED_SPINLOCKS_TRACE_CONTENDED_RELEASE option enabled. _raw_spin_unlock(), x86_64 defconfig, GCC 11, tracepoint compiled in but disabled. The unlock is the single 'movb'. The only instruction added to the executed path is the 2-byte static-branch NOP. The CALL to the traced helper and the JMP back are emitted out of line and are reached only once the static branch is patched on: endbr64 ; 4 bytes xchg %ax,%ax ; 2 static-branch NOP ; (added) movb $0x0,(%rdi) ; 3 unlock (single store) A: decl %gs:__preempt_count ; 7 je B ; 2 jmp __x86_return_thunk ; 5 call queued_spin_release_traced ; 5 out of line, reached ; only when the ; tracepoint is on jmp A ; 2 (added) B: call __SCT__preempt_schedule ; 5 jmp __x86_return_thunk ; 5 Baseline is the same stream without the NOP and the out-of-line CALL/JMP: 31 bytes vs 40 (+9 bytes). Binary size impact on x86_64, defconfig: +680 bytes (+0.00%), since all standard configs out-of-line unlock. Architectures with inlined unlock (s390 (always), csky and loongarch (both when !PREEMPTION)) will see a bigger increase in binary size. On the same path (x86_64, PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=n) with the tracepoint disabled, a _raw_spin_unlock()-heavy nginx workload [1] shows no measurable difference between baseline and patched kernels in throughput, latency, cycles, instructions, IPC, or L1 instruction-cache misses (kernel and total): all deltas stay within run-to-run noise. Unlike x86, on arm64 the frame setup code (STP, MOV and LDP) lands on the executed path in addition to static-branch NOP. Binary size impact on arm64, defconfig: +932 bytes (+0.00%). The _raw_spin_unlock()-heavy nginx workload reflects the larger hot path: L1 instruction-cache misses rise ~1.4% (kernel and total) and instruction count ~0.4%, consistent with the per-unlock frame. cpu_cycles, throughput and latency show no measurable change and are within run-to-run noise. Architectures with fully custom qspinlock implementations (e.g. PowerPC) are not covered by this change.

After the final-reference wake, another futex task can complete the pivot between the two observations: T1 T2 futex_hash_allocate() wait_var_event(mm, ...) futex_pivot_pending(mm) hash_new != NULL futex_hash() futex_ref_get(old) -> false futex_pivot_hash(mm) hash_new = NULL __futex_pivot_hash(mm, new) rcu_assign_pointer(hash, new) fph = rcu_dereference(hash) /* new */ futex_ref_is_dead(fph) -> false schedule() The pivot changes the state from hash_new != NULL with a dead current hash to hash_new == NULL with a live current hash. Because futex_pivot_pending() reads hash_new and hash without serialization, the resize task can observe hash_new in the pre-pivot state and hash in the post-pivot state, causing futex_pivot_pending() to return false even though the pivot has completed. The task then goes to sleep after the wakeup has already been consumed. Serialize state reads in futex_pivot_pending() using futex_mm_phash::lock. This guarantees that futex_pivot_pending() observes hash_new and hash atomically, eliminating the race condition.

2026-08-07bpf: Reject load-acquire from pointers requiring fault protectionDaniel Borkmann1-1/+26
A BPF_LOAD_ACQ is not rewritten to a BPF_PROBE_MEM load by the verifier, unlike a regular BPF_LDX, so the JIT emits a plain load with no exception table entry and a fault panics the kernel instead of being handled. Reject the source pointer types that a BPF_LDX would have had that fault protection applied to, i.e. the ones bpf_convert_ctx_accesses() turns into BPF_PROBE_MEM: a bare PTR_TO_BTF_ID, PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_UNTRUSTED, PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC | PTR_UNTRUSTED and PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY | PTR_UNTRUSTED. This is reachable e.g. by loading ->mm out of a trusted task_struct yields an untrusted pointer to mm_struct, and it is NULL for a kernel thread: [...] SEC("tp_btf/sched_switch") int BPF_PROG(demo, bool preempt, struct task_struct *prev, struct task_struct *next) { struct mm_struct *mm = next->mm; /* untrusted */ out_ldx = (__u64)mm->pgd; /* BPF_LDX */ out_acq = load_acquire(&mm->pgd); /* BPF_LOAD_ACQ */ return 0; } [...] Both dereference the same pointer, but only the BPF_LDX is protected (x86-64 JIT, jump targets shown prog-relative): [...] ; out_ldx = (__u64)mm->pgd; 17: movq $-10485760, %r10 1e: movq %rsi, %r11 21: addq $184, %r11 28: subq %r10, %r11 2b: movabsq $140737498841088, %r10 35: cmpq %r10, %r11 38: ja 0x3e <-- kernel addr? 3a: xorl %edi, %edi <-- no: dst = 0, skip the load 3c: jmp 0x45 3e: movq 184(%rsi), %rdi <-- yes: load + extable entry [...] ; load_acquire(&mm->pgd) 53: movq %rsi, %rdi 56: movq 184(%rdi), %rax <-- no check, no extable entry [...] Note that BPF_PROBE_MEM is not visible in a bpftool xlated dump, as bpf_insn_prepare_dump() rewrites it back to BPF_MEM. A PTR_TRUSTED pointer is deliberately not on the list. Such a load is not converted either, but it does not need to be, since the pointer is guaranteed live, so load-acquire from it stays allowed. The check is gated on BPF_LOAD_ACQ so that atomic RMW and store-release error messages are unchanged; writes (RMW / store-release) to such pointers are already rejected elsewhere, so only load-acquire needs this.

2026-08-06rqspinlock: Reset tail when preserving queue on deadlockKumar Kartikeya Dwivedi1-2/+3
Currently, the destruction of the waiter queue is suppressed for rqspinlock in cases where a deadlock is detected. Deadlock checks happen relatively frequently (on entry for AA, within 1ms for ABBA), and waiter threads may not be involved in locking scenarios involving deadlocks. Thus, it is useful to not flush the queue and let other waiters take a stab at acquiring the lock after we detect a deadlock and exit. However, we need to follow the same logic as what we did previously for the waitq_timeout label: reset the tail, and if we cannot, signal the next waiter appropriately. In case of deadlocks, this signal would just mark the MCS node as unlocked, and in case of timeouts, it would signal RES_TIMEOUT_VAL. The difference thus is in the value propagated, which decides whether the queue remains active or gets flushed. Not doing the tail reset, and waiting for the next waiter can lead to cases where we are the final waiter, and thus no next waiter arrives, leading to intermittent stalls in this path. Once the next waiter does join, we will be unblocked. In the theoretical case when the next waiter never joins, we risk stalling indefinitely. This can only happen for ABBA deadlocks, since entry into the wait queue is guarded with AA checks. A precise sequence of executions leading up to this scenario can be: CPU 0 holds lock A. CPU 1 holds lock B. CPU 2 attempts lock B, becomes the pending waiter for B. CPU 0 attempts lock B. B has locked+pending bits set, thus CPU 0 queues. CPU 1 attempts lock A. CPU 0 detects an ABBA deadlock. Once deadlock detection happens for CPU 0, it will sit waiting for the next waiter in the queue to populate node->next, which will experience delays until such a waiter arrives. Fix this by adjusting the logic for the check for deadlocks preceding the waitq_timeout label. It would make sense to consolidate code for both cases and use 'ret' to distinguish the value being propagated, but that is left as an exercise for a future refactoring task to avoid diff noise in this patch.

2026-08-06cgroup/dmem: Add reclaim callback for lowering max below current usageThomas Hellström1-12/+68
Add an optional reclaim callback to struct dmem_cgroup_region. When dmem.max is set below the current usage of a cgroup pool, the new limit is applied immediately (so that concurrent allocations are throttled while reclaim is in progress) and then the driver is asked to evict memory to bring usage back below the limit. Reclaim is attempted up to a bounded number of times. No error is returned to userspace if usage remains above the limit after reclaim, and a pending signal will abort the reclaim loop early. This matches the behavior of memory.max in the memory cgroup controller. Also honor O_NONBLOCK so that if that flag is set during the max value write, no reclaim is initiated. The idea is to avoid charging the reclaim cost to the writer of the max value. v2: - Write max before reclaim is attempted (Maarten) - Let signals abort the reclaim without error (Maarten) - If a new max value is written with the O_NONBLOCK flag, reclaim is not attempted (Maarten) - Extract region from the pool parameter rather than passing it explicitly to set_resource_xxx(). v3: - Use an rw_semaphore (unregister_sem) to protect reclaim callbacks against concurrent region unregistration: readers (reclaim) hold the read side; dmem_cgroup_unregister_region() takes the write side to drain in-flight callbacks before returning. (Sashiko-bot) v5: - Rebased on the introduction of struct dmem_cgroup_init. - Use nonblock=true in reset_all_resource_limits() to avoid sleeping inside rcu_read_lock() in dmemcs_offline(). (Sashiko-bot) - Compare usage against the truncated limit value stored in cnt.max, not the original u64. (Sashiko-bot) - Use a DMEM_MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES (16) retry budget instead of 5, matching the memcg controller's MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES. Only -ENOSPC (no progress) counts against the retry budget; other errors terminate the loop immediately. v6: - Fix dmem_cgroup_ops->reclaim docstring: -ENOSPC does not stop reclaim immediately but is retried up to DMEM_MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES times; only other negative errors terminate the loop. (Sashiko-bot) v7: - Replace the per-region rw_semaphore with a static SRCU domain (dmemcg_srcu). SRCU is a better fit than rwsem for this use: it avoids the per-region lock overhead on every reclaim call, and synchronize_srcu() at unregister time is a rare operation. (Maarten) - Trim in-function comments to focus on what rather than how.

This provides little benefit, since the allocation is fast and can safely be done under the lock.

2026-08-06module/dups: Fix use-after-free in kmod_dup_req lifetime handlingPetr Pavlu1-16/+40
The kmod dups code uses RCU to ensure that a kmod_dup_req instance is freed only after it is no longer referenced. When releasing an instance, the kmod_dup_request_delete() function removes the kmod_dup_req from the dup_kmod_reqs list, waits via synchronize_rcu() and finally frees it. However, this doesn't work correctly because parallel users referencing the instance in kmod_dup_request_exists_wait() don't enter an RCU read-side critical section. This can result in a use-after-free. The kmod_dup_request_exists_wait() function may need to hold a valid reference to a kmod_dup_req instance across a blocking wait until the corresponding modprobe command completes. This makes it unsuitable for RCU. Fix the issue by changing the lifecycle management of kmod_dup_req to use reference counting.

Neither performs a bounds check on the copy. Current callers always pass names originating from mod->name (itself char[MODULE_NAME_LEN]), so this is not exploitable today. However both functions accept a plain const char * with no documented length contract, making them latent buffer overflows if a future caller passes a longer string.

2026-08-05bpf: Harden bloom filter sizing and indexing on 32-bit kernelsJérémy Jean1-10/+9
bloom_map_alloc() has two 32-bit-specific problems when the computed bitmap reaches the U32_MAX fallback case. First, BITS_TO_BYTES(U32_MAX) is evaluated with 32-bit arithmetic. The addition performed by DIV_ROUND_UP wraps, so the map allocates only the fixed-size bloom filter object while keeping bitset_mask == U32_MAX. Subsequent updates can then write past the allocated object. Second, fixing only the allocation size is not sufficient. The bloom hash is a u32, but set_bit() takes a signed long bit number and x86 test_bit() eventually feeds the index to variable_test_bit(long, ...). On 32-bit kernels, hashes in [0x80000000, U32_MAX] therefore become negative bit offsets. x86 bt/bts with a memory operand interpret those offsets relative to the supplied base, so a map with bitset_mask == U32_MAX can read or write before bloom->bitset even after allocating the full 512 MiB bitmap. Keep the U32_MAX fallback, but split each hash into a word pointer and an in-word bit number before calling test_bit() or set_bit(). The bitops argument is then always in [0, BITS_PER_LONG - 1], while BIT_WORD(h) still selects the intended word in the full bitmap. Compute the bitset size from (u64)bitset_mask + 1 before passing the final size to bpf_map_area_alloc(). This fixes the original under-allocation and keeps the allocated storage consistent with the addressable bitset. Exploitation note: local privilege escalation is possible on a 32-bit x86 kernel using the under-allocation bug from a binary with CAP_BPF.

2026-08-05bpf: Fix sleepable check for tracing/lsm progLeon Hwang1-0/+3
When CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is disabled, a sleepable tracing prog is allowed to attach to '__x64_'-alike prefix symbols. It is because the verifier does not verify whether the symbol is a kernel function or a bpf prog. That said, a sleepable tracing prog is allowed to attach to a bpf prog target whose name has '__x64_'-alike prefix. For example, a sleepable fentry prog attaches to a '__x64_sys_nop' XDP prog, and copies buffer from a user pointer with bpf_copy_from_user() helper. After attaching the XDP prog to lo interface, the kernel BUG could be triggered by 'ping -c 1 -W 1 127.0.0.1': [ 3.460756] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/bpf/trampoline.c:1324 Fix it by disallowing sleepable prog always when its target btf is not a kernel's btf.

2026-08-05bpf: Avoid changing callchain in bpf_get_stackid_peJiri Olsa1-22/+17
There's no need to modify the trace object bpf_get_stackid_pe, we just need to pass the needed callchain length in separate argument.

2026-08-05bpf: Disable preemption in __bpf_get_stackDaniel Borkmann1-0/+3
get_perf_callchain() returns a per-CPU perf_callchain_entry buffer and releases its recursion slot via put_callchain_entry() before returning, so nothing keeps the entry reserved while __bpf_get_stack() consumes it below. A preemptible BPF program (e.g. a non-sleepable raw tracepoint program on a PREEMPT kernel, which runs under migrate_disable() but not preempt_disable()) can be scheduled out between obtaining the entry and the copy. Another task scheduled on the same CPU then reuses the same per-CPU buffer and overwrites trace->nr with a larger value. copy_len is then computed from the inflated trace->nr and can exceed the caller's buffer, causing an out-of-bounds write in the memcpy() and in the build_id path. The rcu_read_lock() taken here alone does not prevent this. It is only taken on the may_fault path, and under CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU it does not disable preemption; it merely keeps perf's callchain buffer array alive (freed via call_rcu()) and does nothing to stop another task from reusing the entry. Disable preemption around obtaining the callchain entry and copying it into the caller's buffer, so the entry cannot be reused underneath us and trace->nr stays bounded by max_depth. Build ID resolution may fault and is therefore deferred until after preemption is re-enabled; by then the instruction pointers have already been copied into buf, so it operates only on that private copy. Note, preempt_disable() also subsumes the buffer-lifetime guarantee the rcu_read_lock() provided, since a preempt-disabled section is an RCU read-side critical section for the callchain buffers' call_rcu() reclaim.

2026-08-05bpf: Clear buf on error in __bpf_get_task_stackJiri Olsa1-2/+5
Both bpf_get_task_stack and bpf_get_task_stack_sleepable helpers that use __bpf_get_task_stack have buf defined as ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM argument and we should initialize the buf on every return path. Adding missing buf memset for __bpf_get_task_stack fail paths. This provides deterministic buffer contents, which is useful when the buffer is used directly as a map key.
