Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:
"This is the main crypto library pull request for 6.17. The main focus
this cycle is on reorganizing the SHA-1 and SHA-2 code, providing
high-quality library APIs for SHA-1 and SHA-2 including HMAC support,
and establishing conventions for lib/crypto/ going forward:
- Migrate the SHA-1 and SHA-512 code (and also SHA-384 which shares
most of the SHA-512 code) into lib/crypto/. This includes both the
generic and architecture-optimized code. Greatly simplify how the
architecture-optimized code is integrated. Add an easy-to-use
library API for each SHA variant, including HMAC support. Finally,
reimplement the crypto_shash support on top of the library API.
- Apply the same reorganization to the SHA-256 code (and also SHA-224
which shares most of the SHA-256 code). This is a somewhat smaller
change, due to my earlier work on SHA-256. But this brings in all
the same additional improvements that I made for SHA-1 and SHA-512.
There are also some smaller changes:
- Move the architecture-optimized ChaCha, Poly1305, and BLAKE2s code
from arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/crypto/ to lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/. For
these algorithms it's just a move, not a full reorganization yet.
- Fix the MIPS chacha-core.S to build with the clang assembler.
- Fix the Poly1305 functions to work in all contexts.
- Fix a performance regression in the x86_64 Poly1305 code.
- Clean up the x86_64 SHA-NI optimized SHA-1 assembly code.
Note that since the new organization of the SHA code is much simpler,
the diffstat of this pull request is negative, despite the addition of
new fully-documented library APIs for multiple SHA and HMAC-SHA
variants.
These APIs will allow further simplifications across the kernel as
users start using them instead of the old-school crypto API. (I've
already written a lot of such conversion patches, removing over 1000
more lines of code. But most of those will target 6.18 or later)"

Pull pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
- persistent info
Persist exit and coredump information independent of whether anyone
currently holds a pidfd for the struct pid.
The current scheme allocated pidfs dentries on-demand repeatedly.
This scheme is reaching it's limits as it makes it impossible to pin
information that needs to be available after the task has exited or
coredumped and that should not be lost simply because the pidfd got
closed temporarily. The next opener should still see the stashed
information.
This is also a prerequisite for supporting extended attributes on
pidfds to allow attaching meta information to them.
If someone opens a pidfd for a struct pid a pidfs dentry is allocated
and stashed in pid->stashed. Once the last pidfd for the struct pid
is closed the pidfs dentry is released and removed from pid->stashed.
So if 10 callers create a pidfs dentry for the same struct pid
sequentially, i.e., each closing the pidfd before the other creates a
new one then a new pidfs dentry is allocated every time.
Because multiple tasks acquiring and releasing a pidfd for the same
struct pid can race with each another a task may still find a valid
pidfs entry from the previous task in pid->stashed and reuse it. Or
it might find a dead dentry in there and fail to reuse it and so
stashes a new pidfs dentry. Multiple tasks may race to stash a new
pidfs dentry but only one will succeed, the other ones will put their
dentry.
The current scheme aims to ensure that a pidfs dentry for a struct
pid can only be created if the task is still alive or if a pidfs
dentry already existed before the task was reaped and so exit
information has been was stashed in the pidfs inode.
That's great except that it's buggy. If a pidfs dentry is stashed in
pid->stashed after pidfs_exit() but before __unhash_process() is
called we will return a pidfd for a reaped task without exit
information being available.
The pidfds_pid_valid() check does not guard against this race as it
doens't sync at all with pidfs_exit(). The pid_has_task() check might
be successful simply because we're before __unhash_process() but
after pidfs_exit().
Introduce a new scheme where the lifetime of information associated
with a pidfs entry (coredump and exit information) isn't bound to the
lifetime of the pidfs inode but the struct pid itself.
The first time a pidfs dentry is allocated for a struct pid a struct
pidfs_attr will be allocated which will be used to store exit and
coredump information.
If all pidfs for the pidfs dentry are closed the dentry and inode can
be cleaned up but the struct pidfs_attr will stick until the struct
pid itself is freed. This will ensure minimal memory usage while
persisting relevant information.
The new scheme has various advantages. First, it allows to close the
race where we end up handing out a pidfd for a reaped task for which
no exit information is available. Second, it minimizes memory usage.
Third, it allows to remove complex lifetime tracking via dentries
when registering a struct pid with pidfs. There's no need to get or
put a reference. Instead, the lifetime of exit and coredump
information associated with a struct pid is bound to the lifetime of
struct pid itself.
- extended attributes
Now that we have a way to persist information for pidfs dentries we
can start supporting extended attributes on pidfds. This will allow
userspace to attach meta information to tasks.
One natural extension would be to introduce a custom pidfs.* extended
attribute space and allow for the inheritance of extended attributes
across fork() and exec().
The first simple scheme will allow privileged userspace to set
trusted extended attributes on pidfs inodes.
- Allow autonomous pidfs file handles
Various filesystems such as pidfs and drm support opening file
handles without having to require a file descriptor to identify the
filesystem. The filesystem are global single instances and can be
trivially identified solely on the information encoded in the file
handle.
This makes it possible to not have to keep or acquire a sentinal file
descriptor just to pass it to open_by_handle_at() to identify the
filesystem. That's especially useful when such sentinel file
descriptor cannot or should not be acquired.
For pidfs this means a file handle can function as full replacement
for storing a pid in a file. Instead a file handle can be stored and
reopened purely based on the file handle.
Such autonomous file handles can be opened with or without specifying
a a file descriptor. If no proper file descriptor is used the
FD_PIDFS_ROOT sentinel must be passed. This allows us to define
further special negative fd sentinels in the future.
Userspace can trivially test for support by trying to open the file
handle with an invalid file descriptor.

This is a logical continuation of the earlier work to create pidfds

Pull mmap_prepare updates from Christian Brauner:
"Last cycle we introduce f_op->mmap_prepare() in c84bf6dd2b ("mm:
introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback").
This is preferred to the existing f_op->mmap() hook as it does require
a VMA to be established yet, thus allowing the mmap logic to invoke
this hook far, far earlier, prior to inserting a VMA into the virtual
address space, or performing any other heavy handed operations.
This allows for much simpler unwinding on error, and for there to be a
single attempt at merging a VMA rather than having to possibly
reattempt a merge based on potentially altered VMA state.
Far more importantly, it prevents inappropriate manipulation of
incompletely initialised VMA state, which is something that has been
the cause of bugs and complexity in the past.
The intent is to gradually deprecate f_op->mmap, and in that vein this
series coverts the majority of file systems to using f_op->mmap_prepare.
Prerequisite steps are taken - firstly ensuring all checks for mmap
capabilities use the file_has_valid_mmap_hooks() helper rather than
directly checking for f_op->mmap (which is now not a valid check) and
secondly updating daxdev_mapping_supported() to not require a VMA
parameter to allow ext4 and xfs to be converted.
Commit bb666b7c27 ("mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for
nested file systems") handles the nasty edge-case of nested file
systems like overlayfs, which introduces a compatibility shim to allow
f_op->mmap_prepare() to be invoked from an f_op->mmap() callback.
This allows for nested filesystems to continue to function correctly
with all file systems regardless of which callback is used. Once we
finally convert all file systems, this shim can be removed.
As a result, ecryptfs, fuse, and overlayfs remain unaltered so they
can nest all other file systems.
We additionally do not update resctl - as this requires an update to
remap_pfn_range() (or an alternative to it) which we defer to a later
series, equally we do not update cramfs which needs a mixed mapping
insertion with the same issue, nor do we update procfs, hugetlbfs,
syfs or kernfs all of which require VMAs for internal state and hooks.
We shall return to all of these later"

Pull coredump updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains an extension to the coredump socket and a proper rework
of the coredump code.
- This extends the coredump socket to allow the coredump server to
tell the kernel how to process individual coredumps. This allows
for fine-grained coredump management. Userspace can decide to just
let the kernel write out the coredump, or generate the coredump
itself, or just reject it.
* COREDUMP_KERNEL
The kernel will write the coredump data to the socket.
* COREDUMP_USERSPACE
The kernel will not write coredump data but will indicate to the
parent that a coredump has been generated. This is used when
userspace generates its own coredumps.
* COREDUMP_REJECT
The kernel will skip generating a coredump for this task.
* COREDUMP_WAIT
The kernel will prevent the task from exiting until the coredump
server has shutdown the socket connection.
The flexible coredump socket can be enabled by using the "@@"
prefix instead of the single "@" prefix for the regular coredump
socket:
@@/run/systemd/coredump.socket
- Cleanup the coredump code properly while we have to touch it

The pidfd selftests run in userspace and include both userspace and kernel
header files. On some distros (for example, CentOS), this results in
duplicate-symbol warnings in allmodconfig builds, while on other distros
(for example, Ubuntu) it does not.
Therefore, use #undef to get rid of the userspace definitions in favor
of the kernel definitions.
Other ways of handling this include splitting up the selftest code so
that the userspace definitions go into one translation unit and the
kernel definitions into another (which might or might not be feasible)
or to adjust compiler command-line options to suppress the warnings
(which might or might not be desirable).

To solve that, it was changed to just read the first 100 lines of the
trace file. This can cause false failures as some events repeat so often,
that the 100 lines that are examined could possibly be of only one event.
Instead, create an awk script that looks for 3 different events and will
exit out after it finds them. This will find the 3 events the test looks
for (eventually if it works), and still exit out after the test is
satisfied and not cause slower machines to run forever.

"Including fixes from can and xfrm.
The TI regression notified last week is actually on our net-next tree,
it does not affect 6.16.
We are investigating a virtio regression which is quite hard to

should not be critical, and I'm not sure that an additional week would
be enough to solve it.

A few packets may still be sent out during the termination of iperf

The test is supposed to observe that the 'clash_resolve' stat counter
incremented (i.e., the code path was covered).
This check was incorrect, 'conntrack -S' needs to be called in the
revevant namespace, not the initial netns.
The clash resolution logic in conntrack is only exercised when multiple
packets with the same udp quadruple race. Depending on kernel config,
number of CPUs, scheduling policy etc. this might not trigger even
after several retries. Thus the script eventually returns SKIP if the
retry count is exceeded.
The udpclash tool with also exit with a failure if it did not observe
the expected number of replies.
In the script, make a note of this but do not fail anymore, just check if
the clash resolution logic triggered after all.
Remove the 'single-core' test: while unlikely, with preemptible kernel it
should be possible to also trigger clash resolution logic.
With this change the test will either SKIP or pass.
Hard error could be restored later once its clear whats going on, so
also dump 'conntrack -S' when some packets went missing to see if
conntrack dropped them on insert.

The test_kexec_jump program builds correctly when invoked from the top-level
selftests/Makefile, which explicitly sets the OUTPUT variable. However,
building directly in tools/testing/selftests/kexec fails with:
make: *** No rule to make target '/test_kexec_jump', needed by 'test_kexec_jump.sh'. Stop.
This failure occurs because the Makefile rule relies on $(OUTPUT), which is
undefined in direct builds.
Fix this by listing test_kexec_jump in TEST_GEN_PROGS, the standard way to
declare generated test binaries in the kselftest framework. This ensures the
binary is built regardless of invocation context and properly removed by
make clean.

The kernel does not provide sys_futex() on 32-bit architectures that do not
support 32-bit time representations, such as riscv32.
As a result, glibc cannot define SYS_futex, causing compilation failures in
tests that rely on this syscall. Define SYS_futex as SYS_futex_time64 in
such cases to ensure successful compilation and compatibility.

In preparation for adding Clang sanitizer coverage stack depth tracking
that can support stack depth callbacks:
- Add the new top-level CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE option which will be
implemented either with the stackleak GCC plugin, or with the Clang
stack depth callback support.
- Rename CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK as needed to CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE,
but keep it for anything specific to the GCC plugin itself.
- Rename all exposed "STACKLEAK" names and files to "KSTACK_ERASE" (named
for what it does rather than what it protects against), but leave as
many of the internals alone as possible to avoid even more churn.
While here, also split "prev_lowest_stack" into CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE_METRICS,
since that's the only place it is referenced from.

The "mmap" and "sendfile" alternate modes for mptcp_connect.sh/.c are
available from the beginning, but only tested when mptcp_connect.sh is
manually launched with "-m mmap" or "-m sendfile", not via the
kselftests helpers.
The MPTCP CI was manually running "mptcp_connect.sh -m mmap", but not
"-m sendfile". Plus other CIs, especially the ones validating the stable
releases, were not validating these alternate modes.
To make sure these modes are validated by these CIs, add two new test
programs executing mptcp_connect.sh with the alternate modes.

More code here than I would have liked. That said, better now than

the OpenVPN input validation is a bit large but better get them in

Netfilter fixes for net
The following batch contains Netfilter fixes for net:
1) Three patches to enhance conntrack selftests for resize and clash
resolution, from Florian Westphal.
2) Expand nft_concat_range.sh selftest to improve coverage from error
path, from Florian Westphal.
3) Hide clash bit to userspace from netlink dumps until there is a
good reason to expose, from Florian Westphal.
4) Revert notification for device registration/unregistration for
nftables basechains and flowtables, we decided to go for a better
way to handle this through the nfnetlink_hook infrastructure which
will come via nf-next, patch from Phil Sutter.
5) Fix crash in conntrack due to race related to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
that results in removing a recycled object that is not yet in the
hashes. Move IPS_CONFIRM setting after the object is in the hashes.

'struct thread' is task local structure, and the related code will become

Meantime pass 'ublk_thread *' to ublk_io_alloc_sqes(), and this way is
natural since we use per-thread io_uring for handling IO.
More importantly it helps much for removing the current ubq_daemon or

As described in a previous commit [1], Lion's patch [2] revealed an ancient
bug in the qdisc API. Whenever a user tries to add a qdisc to an
invalid parent (not a class, root, or ingress qdisc), the qdisc API will
detect this after qdisc_create is called. Some qdiscs (like fq_codel, pie,
and sfq) call functions (on their init callback) which assume the parent is
valid, so qdisc_create itself may have caused a NULL pointer dereference in
such cases.
This commit creates 3 TDC tests that attempt to add fq_codel, pie and sfq
qdiscs to invalid parents
- Attempts to add an fq_codel qdisc to an hhf qdisc parent
- Attempts to add a pie qdisc to a drr qdisc parent
- Attempts to add an sfq qdisc to an inexistent hfsc classid (which would
belong to a valid hfsc qdisc)

Add a dedicated test to exercise conntrack clash resolution path.
Test program emits 128 identical udp packets in parallel, then reads
back replies from socat echo server.
Also check (via conntrack -S) that the clash path was hit at least once.
Due to the racy nature of the test its possible that despite the
threaded program all packets were processed in-order or on same cpu,
emit a SKIP warning in this case.

- one to exercise clash resolution where packets
might have different nat transformations attached to them.
