Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Core:
- Overhaul of posix-timers in preparation of removing the workaround
for periodic timers which have signal delivery ignored.
- Remove the historical extra jiffie in msleep()
msleep() adds an extra jiffie to the timeout value to ensure
minimal sleep time. The timer wheel ensures minimal sleep time
since the large rewrite to a non-cascading wheel, but the extra
jiffie in msleep() remained unnoticed. Remove it.
- Make the timer slack handling correct for realtime tasks.
The procfs interface is inconsistent and does neither reflect
reality nor conforms to the man page. Show the correct 0 slack for
real time tasks and enforce it at the core level instead of having
inconsistent individual checks in various timer setup functions.

Pull lsm updates from Paul Moore:
- Move the LSM framework to static calls
This transitions the vast majority of the LSM callbacks into static
calls. Those callbacks which haven't been converted were left as-is
due to the general ugliness of the changes required to support the
static call conversion; we can revisit those callbacks at a future
date.
- Add the Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE) LSM
This adds a new LSM, Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE). There is
plenty of documentation about IPE in this patches, so I'll refrain
from going into too much detail here, but the basic motivation behind
IPE is to provide a mechanism such that administrators can restrict
execution to only those binaries which come from integrity protected
storage, e.g. a dm-verity protected filesystem. You will notice that
IPE requires additional LSM hooks in the initramfs, dm-verity, and
fs-verity code, with the associated patches carrying ACK/review tags
from the associated maintainers. We couldn't find an obvious
maintainer for the initramfs code, but the IPE patchset has been
widely posted over several years.
Both Deven Bowers and Fan Wu have contributed to IPE's development
over the past several years, with Fan Wu agreeing to serve as the IPE
maintainer moving forward. Once IPE is accepted into your tree, I'll
start working with Fan to ensure he has the necessary accounts, keys,
etc. so that he can start submitting IPE pull requests to you
directly during the next merge window.
- Move the lifecycle management of the LSM blobs to the LSM framework
Management of the LSM blobs (the LSM state buffers attached to
various kernel structs, typically via a void pointer named "security"
or similar) has been mixed, some blobs were allocated/managed by
individual LSMs, others were managed by the LSM framework itself.
Starting with this pull we move management of all the LSM blobs,
minus the XFRM blob, into the framework itself, improving consistency
across LSMs, and reducing the amount of duplicated code across LSMs.
Due to some additional work required to migrate the XFRM blob, it has
been left as a todo item for a later date; from a practical
standpoint this omission should have little impact as only SELinux
provides a XFRM LSM implementation.
- Fix problems with the LSM's handling of F_SETOWN
The LSM hook for the fcntl(F_SETOWN) operation had a couple of
problems: it was racy with itself, and it was disconnected from the
associated DAC related logic in such a way that the LSM state could
be updated in cases where the DAC state would not. We fix both of
these problems by moving the security_file_set_fowner() hook into the
same section of code where the DAC attributes are updated. Not only
does this resolve the DAC/LSM synchronization issue, but as that code
block is protected by a lock, it also resolve the race condition.
- Fix potential problems with the security_inode_free() LSM hook
Due to use of RCU to protect inodes and the placement of the LSM hook
associated with freeing the inode, there is a bit of a challenge when
it comes to managing any LSM state associated with an inode. The VFS
folks are not open to relocating the LSM hook so we have to get
creative when it comes to releasing an inode's LSM state.
Traditionally we have used a single LSM callback within the hook that
is triggered when the inode is "marked for death", but not actually
released due to RCU.
Unfortunately, this causes problems for LSMs which want to take an
action when the inode's associated LSM state is actually released; so
we add an additional LSM callback, inode_free_security_rcu(), that is
called when the inode's LSM state is released in the RCU free
callback.
- Refactor two LSM hooks to better fit the LSM return value patterns
The vast majority of the LSM hooks follow the "return 0 on success,
negative values on failure" pattern, however, there are a small
handful that have unique return value behaviors which has caused
confusion in the past and makes it difficult for the BPF verifier to
properly vet BPF LSM programs. This includes patches to
convert two of these"special" LSM hooks to the common 0/-ERRNO pattern.
- Various cleanups and improvements
A handful of patches to remove redundant code, better leverage the
IS_ERR_OR_NULL() helper, add missing "static" markings, and do some
minor style fixups.

Pull procfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the following changes for procfs:
- Add config options and parameters to block forcing memory writes.
This adds a Kconfig option and boot param to allow removing the
FOLL_FORCE flag from /proc/<pid>/mem write calls as this can be
used in various attacks.
The traditional forcing behavior is kept as default because it can
break GDB and some other use cases.
This is the simpler version that you had requested.
- Restrict overmounting of ephemeral entities.
It is currently possible to mount on top of various ephemeral
entities in procfs. This specifically includes magic links. To
recap, magic links are links of the form /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. They
serve as references to a target file and during path lookup they
cause a jump to the target path. Such magic links disappear if the
corresponding file descriptor is closed.
Currently it is possible to overmount such magic links. This is
mostly interesting for an attacker that wants to somehow trick a
process into e.g., reopening something that it didn't intend to
reopen or to hide a malicious file descriptor.
But also it risks leaking mounts for long-running processes. When
overmounting a magic link like above, the mount will not be
detached when the file descriptor is closed. Only the target
mountpoint will disappear. Which has the consequence of making it
impossible to unmount that mount afterwards. So the mount will
stick around until the process exits and the /proc/<pid>/ directory
is cleaned up during proc_flush_pid() when the dentries are pruned
and invalidated.
That in turn means it's possible for a program to accidentally leak
mounts and it's also possible to make a task leak mounts without
it's knowledge if the attacker just keeps overmounting things under
/proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>.
Disallow overmounting of such ephemeral entities.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"By the number of new lines of code, the most visible change here is

Add two new kernel command line parameters to limit the page-sizes
used for v1 page-tables:
nohugepages - Limits page-sizes to 4KiB
v2_pgsizes_only - Limits page-sizes to 4Kib/2Mib/1GiB; The
same as the sizes used with v2 page-tables
This is needed for multiple scenarios. When assigning devices to
SEV-SNP guests the IOMMU page-sizes need to match the sizes in the RMP
table, otherwise the device will not be able to access all shared
memory.
Also, some ATS devices do not work properly with arbitrary IO
page-sizes as supported by AMD-Vi, so limiting the sizes used by the
driver is a suitable workaround.
All-in-all, these parameters are only workarounds until the IOMMU core
and related APIs gather the ability to negotiate the page-sizes in a
better way.

The Arm NI-700 Network-on-Chip Interconnect has a relatively
straightforward design with a hierarchy of voltage, power, and clock
domains, where each clock domain then contains a number of interface
units and a PMU which can monitor events thereon. As such, it begets a
relatively straightforward driver to interface those PMUs with perf.
Even more so than with arm-cmn, users will require detailed knowledge of
the wider system topology in order to meaningfully analyse anything,
since the interconnect itself cannot know what lies beyond the boundary
of each inscrutably-numbered interface. Given that, for now they are
also expected to refer to the NI-700 documentation for the relevant
event IDs to provide as well. An identifier is implemented so we can
come back and add jevents if anyone really wants to.

Commit ed5cc702d3 ("block: Add config option to not allow writing to mounted
devices") added a Kconfig option along with a kernel command-line tuning to
control writes to mounted block devices, as a means to deal with fuzzers like
Syzkaller, that provokes kernel crashes by directly writing on block devices
bypassing the filesystem (so the FS has no awareness and cannot cope with that).
The patch just missed adding such kernel command-line option to the kernel
documentation, so let's fix that.

Rewrite the short document on bisecting kernel bugs. The new text
improves .config handling, brings a mention of 'git bisect skip', and
explains what to do after the bisection finished -- including trying a
revert to verify the result. The rewrite at the same time removes the
unrelated and outdated section on 'Devices not appearing' and replaces
some sentences about bug reporting with a pointer to the document
covering that topic in detail.
This overall brings the approach close to the one in the recently added

mention that document in the head of this one and outline when the

During CSD-lock stalls, the additional information output by RCU CPU
stall warnings is usually redundant, flooding the console for not good
reason. However, this has been the way things work for a few years.
This commit therefore adds an rcutree.csd_lock_suppress_rcu_stall kernel
boot parameter that causes RCU CPU stall warnings to be abbreviated to
a single line when there is at least one CPU that has been stuck waiting
for CSD lock for more than five seconds.
To make this abbreviated message happen with decent probability:
tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --allcpus --duration 8 \
--configs "2*TREE01" --kconfig "CONFIG_CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG=y" \

This patch fixes that (e.g. allowing overriding the default for
SecurityFlags 0x00c5, including 0x40000 to require seal, ie
SMB3.1.1 encryption) so now that works and forces encryption

Cgroup subsystem state (CSS) is an abstraction in the cgroup layer to
help manage different structures in various cgroup subsystems by being
an embedded element inside a larger structure like cpuset or mem_cgroup.
The /proc/cgroups file shows the number of cgroups for each of the
subsystems. With cgroup v1, the number of CSSes is the same as the
number of cgroups. That is not the case anymore with cgroup v2. The
/proc/cgroups file cannot show the actual number of CSSes for the
subsystems that are bound to cgroup v2.
So if a v2 cgroup subsystem is leaking cgroups (usually memory cgroup),
we can't tell by looking at /proc/cgroups which cgroup subsystems may
be responsible.
As cgroup v2 had deprecated the use of /proc/cgroups, the hierarchical
cgroup.stat file is now being extended to show the number of live and
dying CSSes associated with all the non-inhibited cgroup subsystems that
have been bound to cgroup v2. The number includes CSSes in the current
cgroup as well as in all the descendants underneath it. This will help
us pinpoint which subsystems are responsible for the increasing number
of dying (nr_dying_descendants) cgroups.
The CSSes dying counts are stored in the cgroup structure itself
instead of inside the CSS as suggested by Johannes. This will allow
us to accurately track dying counts of cgroup subsystems that have
recently been disabled in a cgroup. It is now possible that a zero
subsystem number is coupled with a non-zero dying subsystem number.
The cgroup-v2.rst file is updated to discuss this new behavior.
With this patch applied, a sample output from root cgroup.stat file
was shown below.
nr_descendants 56
nr_subsys_cpuset 1
nr_subsys_cpu 43
nr_subsys_io 43

Note that 'debug' controller wasn't used to provide this information because
the controller is not recommended in productions kernels, also many of them
won't enable CONFIG_CGROUP_DEBUG by default.
Similar information could be retrieved with debuggers like drgn but that's
also not always available (e.g. lockdown) and the additional cost of runtime
tracking here is deemed marginal.
