Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
"We have three new drivers, some refactoring in the GPIO core, lots of
various changes across many drivers, new configfs interface for the
virtual gpio-aggregator module and DT-bindings updates.
The treewide conversion of GPIO drivers to using the new value setter
callbacks is ongoing with another round of GPIO drivers updated. You
will also see these commits coming in from other subsystems as with
the relevant changes merged into mainline last cycle, I've started
converting GPIO providers located elsewhere than drivers/gpio/.
GPIO core:
- use more lock guards where applicable
- refactor GPIO ACPI code and shrink it in the process by 8%
- move GPIO ACPI quirks into a separate file
- remove unneeded #ifdef
- convert GPIO devres helpers to using devm_add_action() where
applicable which shrinks and simplifies the code
- refactor GPIO descriptor validation in GPIO consumer interfaces
- don't allow setting values on input lines in the GPIO core which
will take off the burden from GPIO drivers of checking this down
the line
- provide gpiod_is_equal() as a way of safely comparing two GPIO
descriptors (the only current user is in regulator core)
New drivers:
- add the GPIO module for the max77759 multifunction device
- add the GPIO driver for the VeriSilicon BLZP1600 GPIO controller
- add the GPIO driver for the Spacemit K1 SoC
Driver improvements:
- convert more drivers to using the new GPIO line value setter
callbacks
- convert more drivers to making the irq_chip immutable as is
recommended by the interrupt subsystem
- extend build testing coverage by enabling more modules to be built
with COMPILE_TEST=y
- extend the gpio-aggregator module with a configfs interface that
makes the setup easier for user-space than the existing
driver-level sysfs attributes and also adds more advanced
configuration features (such as referring to aggregated lines by
their original names or modifying their names as exposed by the
aggregated chip)
- add a missing mutex_destroy() in gpio-imx-scu
- add an OF polarity quirk for s5m8767
- allow building gpio-vf610 as a loadable module
- make gpio-mxc not hardcode its GPIO base number with GPIO SYSFS
interface disabled (another small step towards getting rid of the
global GPIO numberspace)
- add support for level-triggered interrupts to gpio-pca953x
- don't double-check the ngpios property in gpio-ds4520 as GPIO core
already does it
- don't double-check the number of GPIOs in gpio-imx-scu as GPIO core
already does it
- remove unused callbacks from gpio-max3191x
DT bindings:
- add device-tree bindings for max77759, spacemit,k1 and blzp1600
(new drivers added this cycle)
- document more properties for gpio-vf610 and gpio-tegra186
- document a new pca95xx variant
- fix style of examples in several GPIO DT-binding documents
Misc:
- TODO list updates"

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around:
- The most significant change is the replacement of the old
kernel-doc script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that
predates the Git era) with a Python reimplementation. That, too, is
a horrifying collection of regexes, but in a much cleaner and more
maintainable structure that integrates far better with the Sphinx
build system.
This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the
small number of problems that turned up have been addressed,
seemingly to everybody's satisfaction. The Perl kernel-doc script
remains in tree (as scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a
command-line option if need be. Unless some reason to keep it
around materializes, it will probably go away in 6.17.
Credit goes to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for doing all this work.
- Some RTLA documentation updates
- A handful of Chinese translations
- The usual collection of typo fixes, general updates, etc"

Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Boot code changes:
- A large series of changes to reorganize the x86 boot code into a
better isolated and easier to maintain base of PIC early startup
code in arch/x86/boot/startup/, by Ard Biesheuvel.
Motivation & background:
| Since commit
|
| c88d71508e36 ("x86/boot/64: Rewrite startup_64() in C")
|
| dated Jun 6 2017, we have been using C code on the boot path in a way
| that is not supported by the toolchain, i.e., to execute non-PIC C
| code from a mapping of memory that is different from the one provided
| to the linker. It should have been obvious at the time that this was a
| bad idea, given the need to sprinkle fixup_pointer() calls left and
| right to manipulate global variables (including non-pointer variables)
| without crashing.
|
| This C startup code has been expanding, and in particular, the SEV-SNP
| startup code has been expanding over the past couple of years, and
| grown many of these warts, where the C code needs to use special
| annotations or helpers to access global objects.

Pull coredump updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds support for sending coredumps over an AF_UNIX socket. It
also makes (implicit) use of the new SO_PEERPIDFD ability to hand out
pidfds for reaped peer tasks
The new coredump socket will allow userspace to not have to rely on
usermode helpers for processing coredumps and provides a saf way to
handle them instead of relying on super privileged coredumping helpers
This will also be significantly more lightweight since the kernel
doens't have to do a fork()+exec() for each crashing process to spawn
a usermodehelper. Instead the kernel just connects to the AF_UNIX
socket and userspace can process it concurrently however it sees fit.
Support for userspace is incoming starting with systemd-coredump
There's more work coming in that direction next cycle. The rest below
goes into some details and background
Coredumping currently supports two modes:
(1) Dumping directly into a file somewhere on the filesystem.
(2) Dumping into a pipe connected to a usermode helper process
spawned as a child of the system_unbound_wq or kthreadd
For simplicity I'm mostly ignoring (1). There's probably still some
users of (1) out there but processing coredumps in this way can be
considered adventurous especially in the face of set*id binaries
The most common option should be (2) by now. It works by allowing
userspace to put a string into /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern like:
|/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h
The "|" at the beginning indicates to the kernel that a pipe must be
used. The path following the pipe indicator is a path to a binary that
will be spawned as a usermode helper process. Any additional
parameters pass information about the task that is generating the
coredump to the binary that processes the coredump
In the example the core_pattern shown causes the kernel to spawn
systemd-coredump as a usermode helper. There's various conceptual
consequences of this (non-exhaustive list):
- systemd-coredump is spawned with file descriptor number 0 (stdin)
connected to the read-end of the pipe. All other file descriptors
are closed. That specifically includes 1 (stdout) and 2 (stderr).
This has already caused bugs because userspace assumed that this
cannot happen (Whether or not this is a sane assumption is
irrelevant)
- systemd-coredump will be spawned as a child of system_unbound_wq.
So it is not a child of any userspace process and specifically not
a child of PID 1. It cannot be waited upon and is in a weird hybrid
upcall which are difficult for userspace to control correctly
- systemd-coredump is spawned with full kernel privileges. This
necessitates all kinds of weird privilege dropping excercises in
userspace to make this safe
- A new usermode helper has to be spawned for each crashing process
This adds a new mode:
(3) Dumping into an AF_UNIX socket
Userspace can set /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern to:
@/path/to/coredump.socket
The "@" at the beginning indicates to the kernel that an AF_UNIX
coredump socket will be used to process coredumps
The coredump socket must be located in the initial mount namespace.
When a task coredumps it opens a client socket in the initial network
namespace and connects to the coredump socket:
- The coredump server uses SO_PEERPIDFD to get a stable handle on the
connected crashing task. The retrieved pidfd will provide a stable
reference even if the crashing task gets SIGKILLed while generating
the coredump. That is a huge attack vector right now
- By setting core_pipe_limit non-zero userspace can guarantee that
the crashing task cannot be reaped behind it's back and thus
process all necessary information in /proc/<pid>. The SO_PEERPIDFD
can be used to detect whether /proc/<pid> still refers to the same
process
The core_pipe_limit isn't used to rate-limit connections to the
socket. This can simply be done via AF_UNIX socket directly
- The pidfd for the crashing task will contain information how the
task coredumps. The PIDFD_GET_INFO ioctl gained a new flag
PIDFD_INFO_COREDUMP which can be used to retreive the coredump
information
If the coredump gets a new coredump client connection the kernel
guarantees that PIDFD_INFO_COREDUMP information is available.
Currently the following information is provided in the new
@coredump_mask extension to struct pidfd_info:
* PIDFD_COREDUMPED is raised if the task did actually coredump
* PIDFD_COREDUMP_SKIP is raised if the task skipped coredumping
(e.g., undumpable)
* PIDFD_COREDUMP_USER is raised if this is a regular coredump and
doesn't need special care by the coredump server
* PIDFD_COREDUMP_ROOT is raised if the generated coredump should
be treated as sensitive and the coredump server should restrict
access to the generated coredump to sufficiently privileged
users"

Pull pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Allow handing out pidfds for reaped tasks for AF_UNIX SO_PEERPIDFD
socket option
SO_PEERPIDFD is a socket option that allows to retrieve a pidfd for
the process that called connect() or listen(). This is heavily used
to safely authenticate clients in userspace avoiding security bugs
due to pid recycling races (dbus, polkit, systemd, etc.)
SO_PEERPIDFD currently doesn't support handing out pidfds if the
sk->sk_peer_pid thread-group leader has already been reaped. In
this case it currently returns EINVAL. Userspace still wants to get
a pidfd for a reaped process to have a stable handle it can pass
on. This is especially useful now that it is possible to retrieve
exit information through a pidfd via the PIDFD_GET_INFO ioctl()'s
PIDFD_INFO_EXIT flag
Another summary has been provided by David Rheinsberg:
> A pidfd can outlive the task it refers to, and thus user-space
> must already be prepared that the task underlying a pidfd is
> gone at the time they get their hands on the pidfd. For
> instance, resolving the pidfd to a PID via the fdinfo must be
> prepared to read `-1`.
>
> Despite user-space knowing that a pidfd might be stale, several
> kernel APIs currently add another layer that checks for this. In
> particular, SO_PEERPIDFD returns `EINVAL` if the peer-task was
> already reaped, but returns a stale pidfd if the task is reaped
> immediately after the respective alive-check.
>
> This has the unfortunate effect that user-space now has two ways
> to check for the exact same scenario: A syscall might return
> EINVAL/ESRCH/... *or* the pidfd might be stale, even though
> there is no particular reason to distinguish both cases. This
> also propagates through user-space APIs, which pass on pidfds.
> They must be prepared to pass on `-1` *or* the pidfd, because
> there is no guaranteed way to get a stale pidfd from the kernel.
>
> Userspace must already deal with a pidfd referring to a reaped
> task as the task may exit and get reaped at any time will there
> are still many pidfds referring to it
In order to allow handing out reaped pidfd SO_PEERPIDFD needs to
ensure that PIDFD_INFO_EXIT information is available whenever a
pidfd for a reaped task is created by PIDFD_INFO_EXIT. The uapi
promises that reaped pidfds are only handed out if it is guaranteed
that the caller sees the exit information:
TEST_F(pidfd_info, success_reaped)
{
struct pidfd_info info = {
.mask = PIDFD_INFO_CGROUPID | PIDFD_INFO_EXIT,
};
/*
* Process has already been reaped and PIDFD_INFO_EXIT been set.
* Verify that we can retrieve the exit status of the process.
*/
ASSERT_EQ(ioctl(self->child_pidfd4, PIDFD_GET_INFO, &info), 0);
ASSERT_FALSE(!!(info.mask & PIDFD_INFO_CREDS));
ASSERT_TRUE(!!(info.mask & PIDFD_INFO_EXIT));
ASSERT_TRUE(WIFEXITED(info.exit_code));
ASSERT_EQ(WEXITSTATUS(info.exit_code), 0);
}
To hand out pidfds for reaped processes we thus allocate a pidfs
entry for the relevant sk->sk_peer_pid at the time the
sk->sk_peer_pid is stashed and drop it when the socket is
destroyed. This guarantees that exit information will always be
recorded for the sk->sk_peer_pid task and we can hand out pidfds
for reaped processes
- Hand a pidfd to the coredump usermode helper process
Give userspace a way to instruct the kernel to install a pidfd for
the crashing process into the process started as a usermode helper.
There's still tricky race-windows that cannot be easily or
sometimes not closed at all by userspace. There's various ways like
looking at the start time of a process to make sure that the
usermode helper process is started after the crashing process but
it's all very very brittle and fraught with peril
The crashed-but-not-reaped process can be killed by userspace
before coredump processing programs like systemd-coredump have had
time to manually open a PIDFD from the PID the kernel provides
them, which means they can be tricked into reading from an
arbitrary process, and they run with full privileges as they are
usermode helper processes
Even if that specific race-window wouldn't exist it's still the
safest and cleanest way to let the kernel provide the pidfd
directly instead of requiring userspace to do it manually. In
parallel with this commit we already have systemd adding support
for this in [1]
When the usermode helper process is forked we install a pidfd file
descriptor three into the usermode helper's file descriptor table
so it's available to the exec'd program
Since usermode helpers are either children of the system_unbound_wq
workqueue or kthreadd we know that the file descriptor table is
empty and can thus always use three as the file descriptor number
Note, that we'll install a pidfd for the thread-group leader even
if a subthread is calling do_coredump(). We know that task linkage
hasn't been removed yet and even if this @current isn't the actual
thread-group leader we know that the thread-group leader cannot be
reaped until
@current has exited
- Allow telling when a task has not been found from finding the wrong
task when creating a pidfd
We currently report EINVAL whenever a struct pid has no tasked
attached anymore thereby conflating two concepts:
(1) The task has already been reaped
(2) The caller requested a pidfd for a thread-group leader but the
pid actually references a struct pid that isn't used as a
thread-group leader
This is causing issues for non-threaded workloads as in where they
expect ESRCH to be reported, not EINVAL
So allow userspace to reliably distinguish between (1) and (2)
- Make it possible to detect when a pidfs entry would outlive the
struct pid it pinned
- Add a range of new selftests
Cleanups:
- Remove unneeded NULL check from pidfd_prepare() for passed struct
pid
- Avoid pointless reference count bump during release_task()
Fixes:
- Various fixes to the pidfd and coredump selftests
- Fix error handling for replace_fd() when spawning coredump usermode

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Use folios for symlinks in the page cache
FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()
- Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
inode->i_mutex level
- Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations
Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
allow through out sysctl interface
A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
after initialization
To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
recovery completes
To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
pressure control
The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
restart performance degradation
- Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()
- Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()
- Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()
- Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode
- Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
own private superblock
- Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock
- Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior
- Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()
Cleanups:
- Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers
- Try to remove the uselib() system call
- Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll
- Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select
- Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse
- Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir()
- Use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages
- Update compression and mtime descriptions in initramfs

This test reproduces a scenario where HFSC queue length and backlog accounting
can become inconsistent when a peek operation triggers a dequeue and possible
drop before the parent qdisc updates its counters. The test sets up a DRR root
qdisc with an HFSC class, netem, and blackhole children, and uses Scapy to
inject a packet. It helps to verify that HFSC correctly tracks qlen and backlog
even when packets are dropped during peek-induced dequeue.

When applying a recent commit to the <uapi/linux/perf_event.h>
header I noticed that we have accumulated quite a bit of
historic noise in this header, so do a bit of spring cleaning:
- Define bitfields in a vertically aligned fashion, like
perf_event_mmap_page::capabilities already does. This
makes it easier to see the distribution and sizing of
bits within a word, at a glance. The following is much
more readable:
__u64 cap_bit0 : 1,
cap_bit0_is_deprecated : 1,
cap_user_rdpmc : 1,
cap_user_time : 1,
cap_user_time_zero : 1,
cap_user_time_short : 1,
cap_____res : 58;
Than:
__u64 cap_bit0:1,
cap_bit0_is_deprecated:1,
cap_user_rdpmc:1,
cap_user_time:1,
cap_user_time_zero:1,
cap_user_time_short:1,
cap_____res:58;
So convert all bitfield definitions from the latter style to the
former style.
- Fix typos and grammar
- Fix capitalization
- Remove whitespace noise
- Harmonize the definitions of various generations and groups of
PERF_MEM_ ABI values.
- Vertically align all definitions and assignments to the same
column (48), as the first definition (enum perf_type_id),
throughout the entire header.
- And in general make the code and comments to be more in sync
with each other and to be more readable overall.
No change in functionality.
Copy the changes over to tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h.

Usage of longjmp() was added to ensure that teardown is always run in
commit 63e6b2a42342 ("selftests/harness: Run TEARDOWN for ASSERT failures")
However instead of calling longjmp() to the teardown handler it is easier to
just call the teardown handler directly from __bail().
Any potential duplicate teardown invocations are harmless as the actual
handler will only ever be executed once since
commit fff37bd32c76 ("selftests/harness: Fix fixture teardown").
Additionally this removes a incompatibility with nolibc,
which does not support setjmp()/longjmp().

To get rid of setjmp()/longjmp(), the teardown logic needs to be usable
from __bail(). To access the atomic teardown conditional from there,
move it into the test metadata.
This also allows the removal of "setup_completed".

__sync_bool_compare_and_swap() is deprecated and requires libatomic on
GCC. Compiler toolchains don't necessarily have libatomic available, so
avoid this requirement by using atomics that don't need libatomic.

With -Wmissing-prototypes the compiler will warn about non-static
functions which don't have a prototype defined.
As they are not used from a different compilation unit they don't need to
be defined globally.

Newer architectures (like riscv32) do not implement sys_gettimeofday().
In those cases fall back to sys_clock_gettime().
While that does not support the timezone argument of sys_gettimeofday(),
specifying this argument invokes undefined behaviour, so it's safe to ignore.
