e1c19cd376 perf test: Fix "trace summary" test for musl-based systems
The trace summary test calls /bin/true and filters for open, read and
close events. These events are coming from shared library loads.

On a musl system, the loader and libc may point to the same file. true
needs only libc, no further shared libraries are loaded at startup. The
test fails since no open, read and close events are captured.

  root@host:~# ldd /bin/true
	/lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1 (0x3fb8882000)
	libc.so => /lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1 (0x3fb8882000)

  root@host:~# file /lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1
  /lib/ld-musl-riscv64.so.1: symbolic link to /usr/lib/libc.so

  root@host:~# strace -f /bin/true
  execve("/bin/true", ["/bin/true", ...], ... /* 18 vars */) = 1
  set_tid_address(0x3fa1f7bf70)           = 330
  mprotect(0x2ad6b8e000, 12288, PROT_READ) = 0
  exit_group(0)                           = ?
  +++ exited with 0 +++

Run "cat /dev/null" instead of "true". This creates the required events
regardless of the C library and it works for cat from busybox or from
coreutils.

9a4a67dddc perf test: Fix sys_enter_openat event test for musl
The "syscalls:sys_enter_openat event fields" test calls

openat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc/passwd", O_RDONLY | O_DIRECTORY)

and verifies that the flags of the captured event are matching.
This fails for musl, where the openat syscall wrapper always adds
O_LARGEFILE.

Update the check to allow for additional flags, the access mode flags
must be unchanged.

a4cbd51862 perf test: Fix nanosleep check in the ftrace test
The perf ftrace test case runs:

  perf ftrace profile --graph-opts depth=5 sleep 0.1

and checks that the output contains a *clock_nanosleep function with a
count of 1.

This fails on a risc-v system that uses musl as its C library. musl's
nanosleep syscall wrapper uses either the nanosleep or the
clock_nanosleep syscall.

Filter for sys_*nanosleep to allow both syscalls.

8c8f209361 perf build: Remove NO_GTK2 build test
4751bddd3f ("perf tools: Make GTK2 support opt-in") changed GTK2
build to be opt-in.

So NO_GTK2 is meaningless and we need to pass GTK2=1 to enable it.
Let's update the build-test configuration for that.

Also make_no_ui is the same as make_no_slang since NO_GTK2 is no-op.

Let's get rid of it as well.

>From the TRM [1], N1 has one IMPDEF event which isn't covered by the
common list. Add a framework so that more cores can be added in the

truncated it falls back to a hex dump only.

8cf4d17ec7 perf arm_spe: Store MIDR in arm_spe_pkt
The MIDR will affect printing of arm_spe_pkts, so store a copy of it
there. Technically it's constant for each decoder, but there is no
decoder when doing a raw dump, so it has to be stored in every packet.
It will only be used in raw dump mode and not in normal decoding for
now, but to avoid any surprises, set MIDR properly on the decoder too.

Having both the MIDR and the arm_spe_pkt (which has a copy of it) in the
decoder seemed a bit weird, so remove arm_spe_pkt from the decoder. The
packet is only short lived anyway so probably shouldn't have been there
in the first place.

ae15db3e9b perf callchain: Handle multiple address spaces
perf test 'perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones'
fails on s390. It was introduced with commit 92ea788d2a ("perf
inject: Add --convert-callchain option")

The failure comes the difference in output. Without the inject script to
convert DWARF the callchains is:

 # perf record -F 999 --call-graph dwarf -- perf test -w noploop
 # perf report -i perf.data --stdio --no-children -q \
					 --percent-limit=1 > /tmp/111
 # cat /tmp/111
    99.30%  perf-noploop  perf               [.] noploop

            ---noploop

               __libc_start_main_impl (inlined)
               _start
 #

With the inject script step the output is:

 # perf inject -i perf.data --convert-callchain -o /tmp/perf-inject-1.out
 # perf report -i /tmp/perf-inject-1.out --stdio --no-children -q \
		--percent-limit=1 > /tmp/222

 <                __libc_start_main_impl (inlined)
 #

The difference are the symbols __libc_start_call_main and
__libc_start_main_impl.

On x86_64, kernel and user space share a single virtual address space,
with the kernel mapped to the upper end of memory. The instruction
pointer value alone is sufficient to distinguish between user space and
kernel space addresses.

This is not true for s390, which uses separate address spaces for user
and kernel.

The same virtual address can be valid in both address spaces, so the
instruction pointer value alone cannot determine whether an address
belongs to the kernel or user space.

Instead, perf must rely on the cpumode metadata derived from the
processor status word (PSW) at sample time.

In function perf_event__convert_sample_callchain() the first part
copies a kernel callchain and context entries, if any.

It then appends additional entries ignoring the address space
architecture. Taking that into account, the symbols at addresses

   0x3ff970348cb __libc_start_call_main
   0x3ff970349c5 __libc_start_main_impl

(located after the kernel address space on s390) are now included.

Output before:

 # perf test 83
 83: perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones : FAILED!

Output after:
 # perf test 83
 83: perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones : Ok

Question to Namhyung:

In function perf_event__convert_sample_callchain() just before the
for() loop this patch modifies, the kernel callchain is copied,
see this comment and the next 5 lines:

   /* copy kernel callchain and context entries */

Then why is machine__kernel_ip() needed in the for() loop, when
the kernel entries have been copied just before the loop?

Note: This patch was tested on x86_64 virtual machine and succeeded.

reference for compiler-generated code.

Filter `die_get_call_lineno` error codes (negative values), but
fallback to line 0 if `call_fname` is present to preserve the
caller's filename instead of discarding it entirely.

0e18b5bb7c perf libdw: Fix callchain parent update in ORDER_CALLER mode
Fix the parent srcline lookup in `libdw_a2l_cb()` to target the
correct parent node depending on the callchain order
(ORDER_CALLER/ORDER_CALLEE).

This ensures inline callchains are not corrupted when nest depth > 2.

17e9b4243e perf dwarf-aux: Fix libdw API contract violations
Check return values of `dwarf_decl_line` (where non-optional),
`dwarf_getfuncs`, and `dwarf_lineaddr` to prevent using uninitialized
stack variables or incorrectly reporting success on failure.

For the root DIE in `die_walk_lines()`, `dwarf_decl_line` and
`die_get_decl_file` are optional and their failures are handled
gracefully to avoid breaking line walking on valid functions.
Specifically, remove the strict `!decf` (declared file) check that
would prematurely abort line walking on generated or artificial
functions lacking this optional attribute.

Additionally:
 - Add NULL pointer protection for `strcmp()` in `die_walk_lines()`
   when `inf` or `decf` are NULL to prevent crashes on generated
   code.
 - Use `dwarf_attr_integrate` in `die_get_data_member_location` to
   correctly resolve inherited member locations (e.g. via abstract
   origin or specification).

d37a546770 perf dwarf-aux: Fix libdw segmentation fault in cu_walk_functions_at
A segmentation fault was observed in `libdw` when running `perf kmem`
with `--page stat` on some workloads. The crash occurred deep inside
`libdw` (specifically in `dwarf_child` and `dwarf_diename`) when
processing DWARF information.

The root cause was improper error handling of `dwarf_getfuncs` in
`die_find_realfunc` and `die_find_tailfunc`.

`dwarf_getfuncs` returns:
 - `0` on success (when all functions have been processed).
 - A positive offset if the callback aborts early (e.g., via
   `DWARF_CB_ABORT` when a match is found).
 - `-1` on error.

The original code used `if (!dwarf_getfuncs(...)) return NULL;`. On
error (`-1`), `!-1` evaluates to `0` (false), bypassing the error
check. Execution then proceeded as if a match was found, returning
uninitialized stack memory (`die_mem`) to the caller
(`cu_walk_functions_at`). When `cu_walk_functions_at` passed this
uninitialized memory to `libdw` via `dwarf_diename`, it caused a
segmentation fault.

Fix this by correcting the error check to `if (dwarf_getfuncs(...) <= 0)`.

Pull sched_ext fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "The merge window pulled in the cgroup sub-scheduler infrastructure,
  and new AI reviews are accelerating bug reporting and fixing - hence
  the larger than usual fixes batch:

   - Use-after-frees during scheduler load/unload:
       - The disable path could free the BPF scheduler while deferred
         irq_work / kthread work was still in flight
       - cgroup setter callbacks read the active scheduler outside the
         rwsem that synchronizes against teardown
     Fix both, and reuse the disable drain in the enable error paths so
     the BPF JIT page can't be freed under live callbacks.

   - Several BPF op invocations didn't tell the framework which runqueue
     was already locked, so helper kfuncs that re-acquire the runqueue
     by CPU could deadlock on the held lock

     Fix the affected callsites, including recursive parent-into-child
     dispatch.

   - The hardlockup notifier ran from NMI but eventually took a
     non-NMI-safe lock. Bounce it through irq_work.

   - A handful of bugs in the new sub-scheduler hierarchy:
       - helper kfuncs hard-coded the root instead of resolving the
         caller's scheduler
       - the enable error path tried to disable per-task state that had
         never been initialized, and leaked cpus_read_lock on the way
         out
       - a sysfs object was leaked on every load/unload
       - the dispatch fast-path used the root scheduler instead of the
         task's
       - a couple of CONFIG #ifdef guards were misclassified

   - Verifier-time hardening: BPF programs of unrelated struct_ops types
     (e.g. tcp_congestion_ops) could call sched_ext kfuncs - a semantic
     bug and, once sub-sched was enabled, a KASAN out-of-bounds read.
     Now rejected at load. Plus a few NULL and cross-task argument
     checks on sched_ext kfuncs, and a selftest covering the new deny.

   - rhashtable (Herbert): restore the insecure_elasticity toggle and
     bounce the deferred-resize kick through irq_work to break a
     lock-order cycle observable from raw-spinlock callers. sched_ext's
     scheduler-instance hash is the first user of both.

   - The bypass-mode load balancer used file-scope cpumasks; with
     multiple scheduler instances now possible, those raced. Move to
     per-instance cpumasks, plus a follow-up to skip tasks whose
     recorded CPU is stale relative to the new owning runqueue.

   - Smaller fixes:
       - a dispatch queue's first-task tracking misbehaved when a parked
         iterator cursor sat in the list
       - the runqueue's next-class wasn't promoted on local-queue
         enqueue, leaving an SCX task behind RT in edge cases
       - the reference qmap scheduler stopped erroring on legitimate
         cross-scheduler task-storage misses"

a469feed39 selftests/tc-testing: add taprio test for class dump after child delete
Add a regression test for the NULL pointer dereference fixed in the
previous commit. Before the fix, taprio_graft() stored NULL into
q->qdiscs[cl - 1] when an explicitly grafted child qdisc was deleted
via RTM_DELQDISC; the next RTM_GETTCLASS dump then crashed the kernel
in taprio_dump_class() while reading child->handle.

The test installs a taprio root qdisc on a multi-queue netdevsim
device, grafts a pfifo child onto class 8001:1, deletes that child,
and then performs a class dump. On a fixed kernel the dump succeeds
and all eight taprio classes are listed; on an unpatched kernel the
class dump crashes, which surfaces as a test failure.

465b05bae5 selftests: harness: Restore order of test functions
The recent addition of explicit constructor orders for fixture tests
broke the ordering of those relative to non-fixture tests and the
reverse-constructor-order detection.

Restore the ordering of the test functions relative to each other by
using the same explicit test order for all test registrations and
__constructor_order_first().

Rename the constant, as it is not specific to TEST_F() anymore.

74f192205c selftests: kselftest: fix wrong test number in ksft_exit_skip
ksft_exit_skip() increments ksft_xskip before printing the KTAP
result. As a result, ksft_test_num() already includes the skipped
test.

Adding 1 to ksft_test_num() increments the printed test number
again, producing an incorrect test number and wrong KTAP output.

Drop the extra increment and print ksft_test_num() directly.

a3907a3169 selftests/mm: specify requirement for PROC_MEM_ALWAYS_FORCE=y
Several of the mm selftests made use of /proc/pid/mem as part of their
operation but we do not specify this in the config fragment for them, at
least mkdirty and ksm_functional_tests have this requirement.

This has been working fine in practice since PROC_MEM_ALWAYS_FORCE was the
default setting but commit 599bbba5a3 ("proc: make PROC_MEM_FORCE_PTRACE
the Kconfig default") that is no longer the case, meaning that tests run
on kernels built based on defconfigs have started having the new more
restrictive default and failing.  Add PROC_MEM_ALWAYS_FORCE to the config
fragment for the mm selftests.

Thanks to Aishwarya TCV for spotting the issue and identifying the commit
that introduced it.

619eab23e1 mm/vma: do not try to unmap a VMA if mmap_prepare() invoked from mmap()
The mmap_prepare hook functionality includes the ability to invoke
mmap_prepare() from the mmap() hook of existing 'stacked' drivers, that is
ones which are capable of calling the mmap hooks of other drivers/file
systems (e.g.  overlayfs, shm).

As part of the mmap_prepare action functionality, we deal with errors by
unmapping the VMA should one arise.  This works in the usual mmap_prepare
case, as we invoke this action at the last moment, when the VMA is
established in the maple tree.

However, the mmap() hook passes a not-fully-established VMA pointer to the
caller (which is the motivation behind the mmap_prepare() work), which is
detached.

So attempting to unmap a VMA in this state will be problematic, with the
most obvious symptom being a warning in vma_mark_detached(), because the
VMA is already detached.

It's also unncessary - the mmap() handler will clean up the VMA on error.

So to fix this issue, this patch propagates whether or not an mmap action
is being completed via the compatibility layer or directly.

If the former, then we do not attempt VMA cleanup, if the latter, then we
do.

This patch also updates the userland VMA tests to reflect the change.

39f1c201b9 Merge tag 'kvm-x86-selftests_kernel_types-7.1' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
KVM selftests type renames for 7.1

Renames types across all KVM selftests to more closely align with types used
in the kernel:

  vm_vaddr_t -> gva_t
  vm_paddr_t -> gpa_t

  uint64_t -> u64
  uint32_t -> u32
  uint16_t -> u16
  uint8_t  -> u8

  int64_t -> s64
  int32_t -> s32
  int16_t -> s16
  int8_t  -> s8

Using the kernel's preferred types eliminates a source of friction for many
contributors, as the majority of KVM selftests contributions come from kernel
developers.  The kernel names are also shorter, which allows for more concise
code, and in any many cases eliminates newlines thanks to shorter types and
parameter names.

Rename variables and parameters as well as types, e.g. gpa instead of paddr,
to again align with the kernel, and in a few cases to remove ambiguity, e.g.
where paddr is used to refer to a _host_ physical address.

Pull RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley:
 "There is one significant change outside arch/riscv in this pull
  request: the addition of a set of KUnit tests for strlen(), strnlen(),
  and strrchr().

  Otherwise, the most notable changes are to add some RISC-V-specific
  string function implementations, to remove XIP kernel support, to add
  hardware error exception handling, and to optimize our runtime
  unaligned access speed testing.

  A few comments on the motivation for removing XIP support. It's been
  broken in the RISC-V kernel for months. The code is not easy to
  maintain. Furthermore, for XIP support to truly be useful for RISC-V,
  we think that compile-time feature switches would need to be added for
  many of the RISC-V ISA features and microarchitectural properties that
  are currently implemented with runtime patching. No one has stepped
  forward to take responsibility for that work, so many of us think it's
  best to remove it until clear use cases and champions emerge.

  Summary:

   - Add Kunit correctness testing and microbenchmarks for strlen(),
     strnlen(), and strrchr()

   - Add RISC-V-specific strnlen(), strchr(), strrchr() implementations

   - Add hardware error exception handling

   - Clean up and optimize our unaligned access probe code

   - Enable HAVE_IOREMAP_PROT to be able to use generic_access_phys()

   - Remove XIP kernel support

   - Warn when addresses outside the vmemmap range are passed to
     vmemmap_populate()

   - Update the ACPI FADT revision check to warn if it's not at least
     ACPI v6.6, which is when key RISC-V-specific tables were added to
     the specification

   - Increase COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to 2048 to match ARM64, x86, PowerPC,
     etc.

   - Make kaslr_offset() a static inline function, since there's no need
     for it to show up in the symbol table

   - Add KASLR offset and SATP to the VMCOREINFO ELF notes to improve
     kdump support

   - Add Makefile cleanup rule for vdso_cfi copied source files, and add
     a .gitignore for the build artifacts in that directory

   - Remove some redundant ifdefs that check Kconfig macros

   - Add missing SPDX license tag to the CFI selftest

   - Simplify UTS_MACHINE assignment in the RISC-V Makefile

   - Clarify some unclear comments and remove some superfluous comments

   - Fix various English typos across the RISC-V codebase"

cf94b3c0f0 selftests/net: packetdrill: cover RFC 5961 5.2 challenge ACK on both edges
RFC 5961 Section 5.2 / RFC 793 Section 3.9 require a challenge ACK
whenever an incoming SEG.ACK falls outside
[SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND, SND.NXT].  There is currently no packetdrill
coverage for either edge.

Add tcp_rfc5961_ack-out-of-window.pkt, which in a single passive-open
connection exercises:

  - Upper edge (SEG.ACK > SND.NXT): peer ACKs data that was never
    sent before the server has transmitted anything.
  - Lower edge (SEG.ACK < SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND): after the server
    has sent 2000 bytes (the peer-advertised rwnd forces two 1000-byte
    segments, both acknowledged), peer sends an ACK that is older
    than the acceptable window.

Both cases must elicit a challenge ACK
<SEQ = SND.NXT, ACK = RCV.NXT, CTL = ACK>.  The per-socket RFC 5961
Section 7 rate limit is disabled for the duration of the test so that
both challenge ACKs can fire back-to-back.

42726ec644 tcp: send a challenge ACK on SEG.ACK > SND.NXT
RFC 5961 Section 5.2 validates an incoming segment's ACK value
against the range [SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND, SND.NXT] and states:

  "All incoming segments whose ACK value doesn't satisfy the above
   condition MUST be discarded and an ACK sent back."

Commit 354e4aa391 ("tcp: RFC 5961 5.2 Blind Data Injection Attack
Mitigation") opted Linux into this mitigation and implements the
challenge ACK on the lower side (SEG.ACK < SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND),
but the symmetric upper side (SEG.ACK > SND.NXT) still takes the
pre-RFC-5961 path and silently returns
SKB_DROP_REASON_TCP_ACK_UNSENT_DATA, even though RFC 793 Section 3.9
(now RFC 9293 Section 3.10.7.4) has always required:

  "If the ACK acknowledges something not yet sent (SEG.ACK > SND.NXT)
   then send an ACK, drop the segment, and return."

Complete the mitigation by sending a challenge ACK on that branch,
reusing the existing tcp_send_challenge_ack() path which already
enforces the per-socket RFC 5961 Section 7 rate limit via
__tcp_oow_rate_limited().  FLAG_NO_CHALLENGE_ACK is honoured for
symmetry with the lower-edge case.

Update the existing tcp_ts_recent_invalid_ack.pkt selftest, which
drives this exact path, to consume the new challenge ACK.
