Pull keys update from David Howells:
"This adds support for ML-DSA signatures in X.509 certificates and
PKCS#7/CMS messages, thereby allowing this algorithm to be used for
signing modules, kexec'able binaries, wifi regulatory data, etc..
This requires OpenSSL-3.5 at a minimum and preferably OpenSSL-4 (so
that it can avoid the use of CMS signedAttrs - but that version is not
cut yet). certs/Kconfig does a check to hide the signing options if
OpenSSL does not list the algorithm as being available"

Pull kmalloc_obj updates from Kees Cook:
"Introduce the kmalloc_obj* family of APIs for switching to type-based
kmalloc allocations, away from purely size-based allocations.
Discussed on lkml, with you, and at Linux Plumbers. It's been in -next
for the entire dev cycle.
Before the merge window closes, I'd like to send the treewide
change (generated from the Coccinelle script included here), which
mechanically converts almost 20k callsites from kmalloc* to
kmalloc_obj*:
8007 files changed, 19980 insertions(+), 20838 deletions(-)
This change needed fixes for mismatched types (since now the return
type from allocations is a pointer to the requested type, not "void
*"), and I've been fixing these over the last 4 releases.
These fixes have mostly been trivial mismatches with const qualifiers
or accidentally identical sizes (e.g. same object size: "struct kvec"
vs "struct iovec", or differing pointers to pointers), but I did catch
one case of too-small allocation.
Summary:
- Introduce kmalloc_obj*() family of type-based allocator APIs
- checkpatch: Suggest kmalloc_obj family for sizeof allocations
- coccinelle: Add kmalloc_objs conversion script"

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:
- Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures.
ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is a
recently-standardized post-quantum (quantum-resistant) signature
algorithm. It was known as Dilithium pre-standardization.
The first use case in the kernel will be module signing. But there
are also other users of RSA and ECDSA signatures in the kernel that
might want to upgrade to ML-DSA eventually.
- Improve the AES library:
- Make the AES key expansion and single block encryption and
decryption functions use the architecture-optimized AES code.
Enable these optimizations by default.
- Support preparing an AES key for encryption-only, using about
half as much memory as a bidirectional key.
- Replace the existing two generic implementations of AES with a
single one.
- Simplify how Adiantum message hashing is implemented. Remove the
"nhpoly1305" crypto_shash in favor of direct lib/crypto/ support for
NH hashing, and enable optimizations by default.

Re-implement RCU tasks trace in term of SRCU-fast, not only more than

The linker script scripts/module.lds.S specifies that all input
__klp_objects sections should be consolidated into an output section of
the same name, and start/stop symbols should be created to enable
scripts/livepatch/init.c to locate this data.
This start/stop pattern is not ideal for modules because the symbols are
created even if no __klp_objects input sections are present.
Consequently, a dummy __klp_objects section also appears in the
resulting module. This unnecessarily pollutes non-livepatch modules.
Instead, since modules are relocatable files, the usual method for
locating consolidated data in a module is to read its section table.
This approach avoids the aforementioned problem.
The klp_modinfo already stores a copy of the entire section table with
the final addresses. Introduce a helper function that
scripts/livepatch/init.c can call to obtain the location of the
__klp_objects section from this data.

FIT (Flat Image Tree) allows a ramdisk to be included in each
configuration. Add support for this to the script.
This feature is not available via 'make image.fit' since the ramdisk
likely needs to be built separately anyway, e.g. using modules from
the kernel build. Future work may provide support for doing that.
Note that the uncompressed size is not correct when a ramdisk is used,
since it is too expensive to decompress the ramdisk.

Allow ML-DSA module signing to be enabled.
Note that OpenSSL's CMS_*() function suite does not, as of OpenSSL-3.6,
support the use of CMS_NOATTR with ML-DSA, so the prohibition against using
signedAttrs with module signing has to be removed. The selected digest
then applies only to the algorithm used to calculate the digest stored in
the messageDigest attribute. The OpenSSL development branch has patches
applied that fix this[1], but it appears that that will only be available
in OpenSSL-4.
[1] https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/28923
sign-file won't set CMS_NOATTR if openssl is earlier than v4, resulting in
the use of signed attributes.
The ML-DSA algorithm takes the raw data to be signed without regard to what
digest algorithm is specified in the CMS message. The CMS specified digest
algorithm is ignored unless signedAttrs are used; in such a case, only
SHA512 is permitted.

UAPI headers are not supposed to leak references to kconfig symbols.
They are undefined there in any case. As all actual definitions of this
header are guarded behind a kconfig symbol, for userspace the header is
always identical to its asm-generic variant.
Make the custom UAPI header a kernel-internal one, so the leaks of
kconfig symbols are fixed and userspace will instead use
asm-generic/swab.h directly.

The entsize (8 in this example) is needed by objtool klp-diff for

Clang assembler versions older than 20 silently ignore the above

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -g ba7e025a6c84aed012421468d83639e5dae982b0
WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
#58: FILE: drivers/gpio/gpio-virtio.c:32:
+ struct virtio_gpio_response res;
+ __dma_from_device_group_end();
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -g 5d4cc87414
WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
#267: FILE: include/net/sock.h:431:
+ int sk_rcvlowat;
+ __cacheline_group_end(sock_read_rx);
But these are not actually statements - the following macros
all expand to zero-length fields:
__cacheline_group_begin()
__cacheline_group_end()
__cacheline_group_begin_aligned()
__cacheline_group_end_aligned()
__dma_from_device_group_begin()
__dma_from_device_group_end()
Add them to $declaration_macros so checkpatch recognizes this fact.

Currently, modules.builtin.modinfo is created with executable permissions
(0755). This is because after commit 39cfd5b121 ("kbuild: extract
modules.builtin.modinfo from vmlinux.unstripped"), modules.builtin.modinfo
is extracted from vmlinux.unstripped using objcopy. When extracting
sections, objcopy inherits attributes from the source ELF file.
Since modules.builtin.modinfo is a data file and not an executable,
it should have regular file permissions (0644). The executable bit
can trigger warnings in Debian's Lintian tool.
Explicitly remove the executable bit after generation.

Pull pin-init updates from Benno Lossin:
"Added:
- Implement 'InPlaceWrite' for '&'static mut MaybeUninit<T>'. This
enables users to use external allocation mechanisms such as
'static_cell'.
- Add Gary Guo as a Maintainer.
Changed:
- Rewrote all proc-macros ('[pin_]init!', '#[pin_data]',
'#[pinned_drop]', 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)'), using 'syn' with
better diagnostics.
- Support tuple structs in 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)'.
- Support attributes on fields in '[pin_]init!' (such as
'#[cfg(...)]').
- Add a '#[default_error(<type>)]' attribute to '[pin_]init!' to
override the default error (when no '? Error' is specified).
- Support packed structs in '[pin_]init!' with
'#[disable_initialized_field_access]'.
Removed:
- Remove 'try_[pin_]init!' in favor of merging their feature
with '[pin_]init!'. Update the kernel's own 'try_[pin_]init!'
macros to use the 'default_error' attribute.
Fixed:
- Correct 'T: Sized' bounds to 'T: ?Sized' in the generated
'PinnedDrop' check by '#[pin_data]'."

When building a patch to a single-file kernel module with
CONFIG_MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL enabled, the klp-build module link fails in
modpost:
Diffing objects
drivers/md/raid0.o: changed function: raid0_run
Building patch module: livepatch-0001-patch-raid0_run.ko
drivers/md/raid0.c: No such file or directory
...
The problem here is that klp-build copied drivers/md/.raid0.o.cmd to the
module build directory, but it didn't also copy over the input source
file listed in the .cmd file:
source_drivers/md/raid0.o := drivers/md/raid0.c
So modpost dies due to the missing .c file which is needed for
calculating checksums for CONFIG_MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL.
Instead of copying the original .cmd file, just create an empty one.
Modpost only requires that it exists. The original object's build
dependencies are irrelevant for the frankenobjects used by klp-build.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix a crash with passing a stacktrace between synthetic events
A synthetic event is an event that combines two events into a single
event that can display fields from both events as well as the time
delta that took place between the events. It can also pass a
stacktrace from the first event so that it can be displayed by the
synthetic event (this is useful to get a stacktrace of a task
scheduling out when blocked and recording the time it was blocked
for).
A synthetic event can also connect an existing synthetic event to
another event. An issue was found that if the first synthetic event
had a stacktrace as one of its fields, and that stacktrace field was
passed to the new synthetic event to be displayed, it would crash the
kernel. This was due to the stacktrace not being saved as a
stacktrace but was still marked as one. When the stacktrace was read,
it would try to read an array but instead read the integer metadata
of the stacktrace and dereferenced a bad value.
Fix this by saving the stacktrace field as a stacktrace.
- Fix possible overflow in cmp_mod_entry() compare function
A binary search is used to find a module address and if the addresses
are greater than 2GB apart it could lead to truncation and cause a
bad search result. Use normal compares instead of a subtraction
between addresses to calculate the compare value.
- Fix output of entry arguments in function graph tracer
Depending on the configurations enabled, the entry can be two
different types that hold the argument array. The macro
FGRAPH_ENTRY_ARGS() is used to find the correct arguments from the
given type. One location was missed and still referenced the
arguments directly via entry->args and could produce the wrong value
depending on how the kernel was configured.
- Fix memory leak in scripts/tracepoint-update build tool
If the array fails to allocate, the memory for the values needs to be
freed and was not. Free the allocated values if the array failed to
allocate.
* tag 'trace-v6.19-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:
scripts/tracepoint-update: Fix memory leak in add_string() on failure
function_graph: Fix args pointer mismatch in print_graph_retval()
tracing: Avoid possible signed 64-bit truncation
tracing: Fix crash on synthetic stacktrace field usage
When realloc() fails in add_string(), the function returns -1 but leaves
*vals pointing to the previously allocated memory. This can cause memory
leaks in callers like make_trace_array() that return on error without
freeing the partially built array.
Fix this by freeing *vals and setting it to NULL when realloc() fails.
This makes the error handling self-contained in add_string() so callers
don't need to handle cleanup on failure.
This bug is found by my static analysis tool and my code review.

merge_config.sh shell/sed/grep loop scales poorly and is slow.
With Yocto genericarm64 kernel and around 190 config fragments
the script takes more than 20 minutes to run on a fast build machine.
Re-implementation with awk does the same job in 10 seconds.
Using awk since it is likely available in the build environments
and using perl, python etc would introduce more complex runtime
dependencies. awk is good enough and lot better than shell/sed/grep.
Output stays the same but changed execution time means that
parallel job output may be ordered differently.

When the kallsyms relative base was introduced, per-CPU variable
references on x86_64 SMP were implemented as offsets into the respective
per-CPU region, rather than offsets relative to the location of the
variable's template in the kernel image, which is how other
architectures implement it.
This required kallsyms to reason about the difference between the two,
and the sign of the value in the kallsyms_offsets[] array was used to
distinguish them. This meant that negative offsets were not permitted
for ordinary variables, and so it was crucial that the relative base was
chosen such that all offsets were positive numbers.
This is no longer needed: instead, the offsets can simply be encoded as
values in the range -/+ 2 GiB, which is precisely what PC32 relocations
provide on most architectures. So it is possible to simplify the logic,
and just use _text as the anchor directly, and let the linker calculate
the final value based on the location of the entry itself.
Some architectures (nios2, extensa) do not support place-relative
relocations at all, but these are all 32-bit and non-relocatable, and so
there is no need for place-relative relocations in the first place, and
the actual symbol values can just be stored directly.
This makes all entries in the kallsyms_offsets[] array visible as
place-relative references in the ELF metadata, which will be important
when implementing ELF-based fg-kaslr.

Provide a new syscall which has the only purpose to yield the CPU after the
kernel granted a time slice extension.
sched_yield() is not suitable for that because it unconditionally
schedules, but the end of the time slice extension is not required to
schedule when the task was already preempted. This also allows to have a
strict check for termination to catch user space invoking random syscalls
including sched_yield() from a time slice extension region.
