2025-06-17perf bench futex: Fix prctl include in musl libcArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Namhyung Kim reported: I've updated the perf-tools-next to v6.16-rc1 and found a build error like below on alpine linux 3.18. In file included from bench/futex.c:6: /usr/include/sys/prctl.h:88:8: error: redefinition of 'struct prctl_mm_map' 88 | struct prctl_mm_map { | ^~~~~~~~~~~~ In file included from bench/futex.c:5: /linux/tools/include/uapi/linux/prctl.h:134:8: note: originally defined here 134 | struct prctl_mm_map { | ^~~~~~~~~~~~ make[4]: *** [/linux/tools/build/Makefile.build:86: /build/bench/futex.o] Error 1 git bisect says it's the first commit introduced the failure. So both /usr/include/sys/prctl.h and /linux/tools/include/uapi/linux/prctl.h provide struct prctl_mm_map but their include guard must be different. /usr/include/sys/prctl.h provided by glibc contains the prctl() declaration. It includes also linux/prctl.h. The /usr/include/sys/prctl.h on alpine linux is different. This is probably coming from musl. It contains the PR_* definition and the prctl() declaration. So it clashes here because now the one struct is available twice. The man page for prctl(2) says: | #include <linux/prctl.h> /* Definition of PR_* constants */ | #include <sys/prctl.h> so musl doesn't follow this. So don't include linux/prctl.h explicitely and add some new defines needed if they aren't available.

2025-06-17selftests/bpf: More precise cpu_mitigations state detectionEduard Zingerman
test_progs and test_verifier binaries execute unpriv tests under the following conditions: - unpriv BPF is enabled; - CPU mitigations are enabled (see [1] for details). The detection of the "mitigations enabled" state is performed by unpriv_helpers.c:get_mitigations_off() via inspecting kernel boot command line, looking for a parameter "mitigations=off". Such detection scheme won't work for certain configurations, e.g. when CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS is disabled and boot parameter is not supplied. Miss-detection leads to test_progs executing tests meant to be run only with mitigations enabled, e.g. verifier_and.c:known_subreg_with_unknown_reg(), and reporting false failures. Internally, verifier sets bpf_verifier_env->bypass_spec_{v1,v4} basing on the value returned by kernel/cpu.c:cpu_mitigations_off(). This function is backed by a variable kernel/cpu.c:cpu_mitigations. This state is not fully introspect-able via sysfs. The closest proxy is /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v1, but it reports "vulnerable" state only if mitigations are disabled *and* current cpu is vulnerable, while verifier does not check cpu state. There are only two ways the kernel/cpu.c:cpu_mitigations can be set: - via boot parameter; - via CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS option. This commit updates unpriv_helpers.c:get_mitigations_off() to scan /boot/config-$(uname -r) and /proc/config.gz for CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS value in addition to boot command line check. Tested using the following configurations: - mitigations enabled (unpriv tests are enabled) - mitigations disabled via boot cmdline (unpriv tests skipped) - mitigations disabled via CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS (unpriv tests skipped) [1] https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20231025031144.5508-1-laoar.shao@gmail.com/ Reported-by: Mykyta Yatsenko <mykyta.yatsenko5@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250617005710.1066165-2-eddyz87@gmail.com

The majority of them are further fixups around the recent ITS mitigations. The rest don't really have a coherent story: - Some flavors of Xen PV guests don't support large pages, but the set_memory.c code assumes all CPUs support them. Avoid problems with a quick CPU feature check. - The TDX code has some wrappers to help retry calls to the TDX module. They use function pointers to assembly functions and the compiler usually generates direct CALLs. But some new compilers, plus -Os turned them in to indirect CALLs and the assembly code was not annotated for indirect calls. Force inlining of the helper to fix it up. - Last, a FRED issue showed up when single-stepping. It's fine when using an external debugger, but was getting stuck returning from a SIGTRAP handler otherwise.

2025-06-13veristat: Memory accounting for bpf programsEduard Zingerman
This commit adds a new field mem_peak / "Peak memory (MiB)" field to a set of gathered statistics. The field is intended as an estimate for peak verifier memory consumption for processing of a given program. Mechanically stat is collected as follows: - At the beginning of handle_verif_mode() a new cgroup is created and veristat process is moved into this cgroup. - At each program load: - bpf_object__load() is split into bpf_object__prepare() and bpf_object__load() to avoid accounting for memory allocated for maps; - before bpf_object__load(): - a write to "memory.peak" file of the new cgroup is used to reset cgroup statistics; - updated value is read from "memory.peak" file and stashed; - after bpf_object__load() "memory.peak" is read again and difference between new and stashed values is used as a metric. If any of the above steps fails veristat proceeds w/o collecting mem_peak information for a program, reporting mem_peak as -1. While memcg provides data in bytes (converted from pages), veristat converts it to megabytes to avoid jitter when comparing results of different executions. The change has no measurable impact on veristat running time. A correlation between "Peak states" and "Peak memory" fields provides a sanity check for gathered statistics, e.g. a sample of data for sched_ext programs: Program Peak states Peak memory (MiB) ------------------------ ----------- ----------------- lavd_select_cpu 2153 44 lavd_enqueue 1982 41 lavd_dispatch 3480 28 layered_dispatch 1417 17 layered_enqueue 760 11 lavd_cpu_offline 349 6 lavd_cpu_online 349 6 lavd_init 394 6 rusty_init 350 5 layered_select_cpu 391 4 ... rusty_stopping 134 1 arena_topology_node_init 170 0 Signed-off-by: Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250613072147.3938139-3-eddyz87@gmail.com

2025-06-12mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for nested file systemsLorenzo Stoakes
Nested file systems, that is those which invoke call_mmap() within their own f_op->mmap() handlers, may encounter underlying file systems which provide the f_op->mmap_prepare() hook introduced by commit c84bf6dd2b83 ("mm: introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback"). We have a chicken-and-egg scenario here - until all file systems are converted to using .mmap_prepare(), we cannot convert these nested handlers, as we can't call f_op->mmap from an .mmap_prepare() hook. So we have to do it the other way round - invoke the .mmap_prepare() hook from an .mmap() one. in order to do so, we need to convert VMA state into a struct vm_area_desc descriptor, invoking the underlying file system's f_op->mmap_prepare() callback passing a pointer to this, and then setting VMA state accordingly and safely. This patch achieves this via the compat_vma_mmap_prepare() function, which we invoke from call_mmap() if f_op->mmap_prepare() is specified in the passed in file pointer. We place the fundamental logic into mm/vma.h where VMA manipulation belongs. We also update the VMA userland tests to accommodate the changes. The compat_vma_mmap_prepare() function and its associated machinery is temporary, and will be removed once the conversion of file systems is complete. We carefully place this code so it can be used with CONFIG_MMU and also with cutting edge nommu silicon.

2025-06-12selftests/bpf: Fix two net related test failures with 64K page sizeYonghong Song
When running BPF selftests on arm64 with a 64K page size, I encountered the following two test failures: sockmap_basic/sockmap skb_verdict change tail:FAIL tc_change_tail:FAIL With further debugging, I identified the root cause in the following kernel code within __bpf_skb_change_tail(): u32 max_len = BPF_SKB_MAX_LEN; u32 min_len = __bpf_skb_min_len(skb); int ret; if (unlikely(flags || new_len > max_len || new_len < min_len)) return -EINVAL; With a 4K page size, new_len = 65535 and max_len = 16064, the function returns -EINVAL. However, With a 64K page size, max_len increases to 261824, allowing execution to proceed further in the function. This is because BPF_SKB_MAX_LEN scales with the page size and larger page sizes result in higher max_len values. Updating the new_len parameter in both tests based on actual kernel page size resolved both failures.

2025-06-12bpf: Fix an issue in bpf_prog_test_run_xdp when page size greater than 4KYonghong Song
The bpf selftest xdp_adjust_tail/xdp_adjust_frags_tail_grow failed on arm64 with 64KB page: xdp_adjust_tail/xdp_adjust_frags_tail_grow:FAIL In bpf_prog_test_run_xdp(), the xdp->frame_sz is set to 4K, but later on when constructing frags, with 64K page size, the frag data_len could be more than 4K. This will cause problems in bpf_xdp_frags_increase_tail(). To fix the failure, the xdp->frame_sz is set to be PAGE_SIZE so kernel can test different page size properly. With the kernel change, the user space and bpf prog needs adjustment. Currently, the MAX_SKB_FRAGS default value is 17, so for 4K page, the maximum packet size will be less than 68K. To test 64K page, a bigger maximum packet size than 68K is desired. So two different functions are implemented for subtest xdp_adjust_frags_tail_grow.

2025-06-12selftests/bpf: tests with a loop state missing read/precision markEduard Zingerman
The test case absent_mark_in_the_middle_state is equivalent of the following C program: 1: r8 = bpf_get_prandom_u32(); 2: r6 = -32; 3: bpf_iter_num_new(&fp[-8], 0, 10); 4: if (unlikely(bpf_get_prandom_u32())) 5: r6 = -31; 6: for (;;) { 7: if (!bpf_iter_num_next(&fp[-8])) 8: break; 9: if (unlikely(bpf_get_prandom_u32())) 10: *(u64 *)(fp + r6) = 7; 11: } 12: bpf_iter_num_destroy(&fp[-8]); 13: return 0; W/o a fix that instructs verifier to ignore branches count for loop entries verification proceeds as follows: - 1-4, state is {r6=-32,fp-8=active}; - 6, checkpoint A is created with {r6=-32,fp-8=active}; - 7, checkpoint B is created with {r6=-32,fp-8=active}, push state {r6=-32,fp-8=active} from 7 to 9; - 8,12,13, {r6=-32,fp-8=drained}, exit; - pop state with {r6=-32,fp-8=active} from 7 to 9; - 9, push state {r6=-32,fp-8=active} from 9 to 10; - 6, checkpoint C is created with {r6=-32,fp-8=active}; - 7, checkpoint A is hit, no precision propagated for r6 to C; - pop state {r6=-32,fp-8=active} from 9 to 10; - 10, state is {r6=-31,fp-8=active}, r6 is marked as read and precise, these marks are propagated to checkpoints A and B (but not C, as it is not the parent of current state; - 6, {r6=-31,fp-8=active} checkpoint C is hit, because r6 is not marked precise for this checkpoint; - the program is accepted, despite a possibility of unaligned u64 stack access at offset -31. The test case absent_mark_in_the_middle_state2 is similar except the following change: r8 = bpf_get_prandom_u32(); r6 = -32; bpf_iter_num_new(&fp[-8], 0, 10); if (unlikely(bpf_get_prandom_u32())) { r6 = -31; + jump_into_loop: + goto +0; + goto loop; + } + if (unlikely(bpf_get_prandom_u32())) + goto jump_into_loop; + loop: for (;;) { if (!bpf_iter_num_next(&fp[-8])) break; if (unlikely(bpf_get_prandom_u32())) *(u64 *)(fp + r6) = 7; } bpf_iter_num_destroy(&fp[-8]) return 0 The goal is to check that read/precision marks are propagated to checkpoint created at 'goto +0' that resides outside of the loop. The test case absent_mark_in_the_middle_state3 is a bit different and is equivalent to the C program below: int absent_mark_in_the_middle_state3(void) { bpf_iter_num_new(&fp[-8], 0, 10) loop1(-32, &fp[-8]) loop1_wrapper(&fp[-8]) bpf_iter_num_destroy(&fp[-8]) } int loop1(num, iter) { while (bpf_iter_num_next(iter)) { if (unlikely(bpf_get_prandom_u32())) *(fp + num) = 7; } return 0 } int loop1_wrapper(iter) { r6 = -32; if (unlikely(bpf_get_prandom_u32())) r6 = -31; loop1(r6, iter); return 0; } The unsafe state is reached in a similar manner, but the loop is located inside a subprogram that is called from two locations in the main subprogram. This detail is important for exercising bpf_scc_visit->backedges memory management.

The test creates two ntuple rules with explicit location priorities: - A high-priority rule (loc 0) directing specific port traffic to context 0. - A low-priority rule (loc 1) directing all other TCP traffic to context 1. This validates that: 1. Rules targeting the default context function properly. 2. Traffic steering works as expected when mixing default and additional RSS contexts.

On arm64, the cgroup_mprog_ordering selftest failed with test_progs run when building with clang compiler. The reason is due to socklen_t optlen not initialized. In kernel function do_ip_getsockopt(), we have if (copy_from_sockptr(&len, optlen, sizeof(int))) return -EFAULT; if (len < 0) return -EINVAL; The above 'len' variable is a negative value and hence the test failed. But the test is okay on x86_64. I checked the x86_64 asm code and I didn't see explicit initialization of 'optlen' but its value is 0 so kernel didn't return error. This should be a pure luck.

2025-06-09bpf: Fall back to nospec for Spectre v1Luis Gerhorst
This implements the core of the series and causes the verifier to fall back to mitigating Spectre v1 using speculation barriers. The approach was presented at LPC'24 [1] and RAID'24 [2]. If we find any forbidden behavior on a speculative path, we insert a nospec (e.g., lfence speculation barrier on x86) before the instruction and stop verifying the path. While verifying a speculative path, we can furthermore stop verification of that path whenever we encounter a nospec instruction. A minimal example program would look as follows: A = true B = true if A goto e f() if B goto e unsafe() e: exit There are the following speculative and non-speculative paths (`cur->speculative` and `speculative` referring to the value of the push_stack() parameters): - A = true - B = true - if A goto e - A && !cur->speculative && !speculative - exit - !A && !cur->speculative && speculative - f() - if B goto e - B && cur->speculative && !speculative - exit - !B && cur->speculative && speculative - unsafe() If f() contains any unsafe behavior under Spectre v1 and the unsafe behavior matches `state->speculative && error_recoverable_with_nospec(err)`, do_check() will now add a nospec before f() instead of rejecting the program: A = true B = true if A goto e nospec f() if B goto e unsafe() e: exit Alternatively, the algorithm also takes advantage of nospec instructions inserted for other reasons (e.g., Spectre v4). Taking the program above as an example, speculative path exploration can stop before f() if a nospec was inserted there because of Spectre v4 sanitization. In this example, all instructions after the nospec are dead code (and with the nospec they are also dead code speculatively). For this, it relies on the fact that speculation barriers generally prevent all later instructions from executing if the speculation was not correct: * On Intel x86_64, lfence acts as full speculation barrier, not only as a load fence [3]: An LFENCE instruction or a serializing instruction will ensure that no later instructions execute, even speculatively, until all prior instructions complete locally. [...] Inserting an LFENCE instruction after a bounds check prevents later operations from executing before the bound check completes. This was experimentally confirmed in [4]. * On AMD x86_64, lfence is dispatch-serializing [5] (requires MSR C001_1029[1] to be set if the MSR is supported, this happens in init_amd()). AMD further specifies "A dispatch serializing instruction forces the processor to retire the serializing instruction and all previous instructions before the next instruction is executed" [8]. As dispatch is not specific to memory loads or branches, lfence therefore also affects all instructions there. Also, if retiring a branch means it's PC change becomes architectural (should be), this means any "wrong" speculation is aborted as required for this series. * ARM's SB speculation barrier instruction also affects "any instruction that appears later in the program order than the barrier" [6]. * PowerPC's barrier also affects all subsequent instructions [7]: [...] executing an ori R31,R31,0 instruction ensures that all instructions preceding the ori R31,R31,0 instruction have completed before the ori R31,R31,0 instruction completes, and that no subsequent instructions are initiated, even out-of-order, until after the ori R31,R31,0 instruction completes. The ori R31,R31,0 instruction may complete before storage accesses associated with instructions preceding the ori R31,R31,0 instruction have been performed Regarding the example, this implies that `if B goto e` will not execute before `if A goto e` completes. Once `if A goto e` completes, the CPU should find that the speculation was wrong and continue with `exit`. If there is any other path that leads to `if B goto e` (and therefore `unsafe()`) without going through `if A goto e`, then a nospec will still be needed there. However, this patch assumes this other path will be explored separately and therefore be discovered by the verifier even if the exploration discussed here stops at the nospec. This patch furthermore has the unfortunate consequence that Spectre v1 mitigations now only support architectures which implement BPF_NOSPEC. Before this commit, Spectre v1 mitigations prevented exploits by rejecting the programs on all architectures. Because some JITs do not implement BPF_NOSPEC, this patch therefore may regress unpriv BPF's security to a limited extent: * The regression is limited to systems vulnerable to Spectre v1, have unprivileged BPF enabled, and do NOT emit insns for BPF_NOSPEC. The latter is not the case for x86 64- and 32-bit, arm64, and powerpc 64-bit and they are therefore not affected by the regression. According to commit a6f6a95f2580 ("LoongArch, bpf: Fix jit to skip speculation barrier opcode"), LoongArch is not vulnerable to Spectre v1 and therefore also not affected by the regression. * To the best of my knowledge this regression may therefore only affect MIPS. This is deemed acceptable because unpriv BPF is still disabled there by default. As stated in a previous commit, BPF_NOSPEC could be implemented for MIPS based on GCC's speculation_barrier implementation. * It is unclear which other architectures (besides x86 64- and 32-bit, ARM64, PowerPC 64-bit, LoongArch, and MIPS) supported by the kernel are vulnerable to Spectre v1. Also, it is not clear if barriers are available on these architectures. Implementing BPF_NOSPEC on these architectures therefore is non-trivial. Searching GCC and the kernel for speculation barrier implementations for these architectures yielded no result. * If any of those regressed systems is also vulnerable to Spectre v4, the system was already vulnerable to Spectre v4 attacks based on unpriv BPF before this patch and the impact is therefore further limited. As an alternative to regressing security, one could still reject programs if the architecture does not emit BPF_NOSPEC (e.g., by removing the empty BPF_NOSPEC-case from all JITs except for LoongArch where it appears justified). However, this will cause rejections on these archs that are likely unfounded in the vast majority of cases. In the tests, some are now successful where we previously had a false-positive (i.e., rejection). Change them to reflect where the nospec should be inserted (using __xlated_unpriv) and modify the error message if the nospec is able to mitigate a problem that previously shadowed another problem (in that case __xlated_unpriv does not work, therefore just add a comment). Define SPEC_V1 to avoid duplicating this ifdef whenever we check for nospec insns using __xlated_unpriv, define it here once. This also improves readability. PowerPC can probably also be added here. However, omit it for now because the BPF CI currently does not include a test. Limit it to EPERM, EACCES, and EINVAL (and not everything except for EFAULT and ENOMEM) as it already has the desired effect for most real-world programs. Briefly went through all the occurrences of EPERM, EINVAL, and EACCESS in verifier.c to validate that catching them like this makes sense.
