git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390". - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios" "mm: convert mm counter to take a folio" - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the scalability of zswap rb-tree". - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some swap-intensive situations. - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap: optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest. - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()". - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged as system memory. - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups", which does that. - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series "mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable" "selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases" "Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements" "mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself" - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments appearing with CXL. - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump: Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute". - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests". - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol") format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party tools to parse and process out selftesting results. - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process has a large number of pte-mapped folios. - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice. - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work. - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code. - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test", Mark Brown did what the title claims. - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring". - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend zswap kselftests" does as claimed. - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary. - Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain userfaultfd operations. - Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador in his series "page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations" "page_owner: Fixup and cleanup" - Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark. - Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split crash out from kexec and clean up related config items". - Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series "mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration" "mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()" - Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio memory compaction". - Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages() to an iterator". - Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock". - Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios". - David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove total_mapcount()", a cleanup. - Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing". - Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot" provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages. - Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that. - Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that also. S390 is affected. - Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series "mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()". - Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM Selftests". - Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see the individual changelogs for details. * tag 'mm-stable-2024-03-13-20-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (435 commits) mm/zswap: remove the memcpy if acomp is not sleepable crypto: introduce: acomp_is_async to expose if comp drivers might sleep memtest: use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE in memory scanning mm: prohibit the last subpage from reusing the entire large folio mm: recover pud_leaf() definitions in nopmd case selftests/mm: skip the hugetlb-madvise tests on unmet hugepage requirements selftests/mm: skip uffd hugetlb tests with insufficient hugepages selftests/mm: dont fail testsuite due to a lack of hugepages mm/huge_memory: skip invalid debugfs new_order input for folio split mm/huge_memory: check new folio order when split a folio mm, vmscan: retry kswapd's priority loop with cache_trim_mode off on failure mm: add an explicit smp_wmb() to UFFDIO_CONTINUE mm: fix list corruption in put_pages_list mm: remove folio from deferred split list before uncharging it filemap: avoid unnecessary major faults in filemap_fault() mm,page_owner: drop unnecessary check mm,page_owner: check for null stack_record before bumping its refcount mm: swap: fix race between free_swap_and_cache() and swapoff() mm/treewide: align up pXd_leaf() retval across archs mm/treewide: drop pXd_large() ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks: - Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps etc) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock. - Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock, allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead of once for each driver / callback. - Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface. - Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock. - Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary. - Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length and budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults. - Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible. - Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of ECMP imbalance problems. - Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP. - Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec. - Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301. - Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled control state machine. - Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple disjoint MCTP networks. - Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing information while traversing veth links, bridge etc. - Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets. - Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use on fastpaths). - Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list. - Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations. - Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages. Things we sprinkled into general kernel code: - Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by bpf_arena). - Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass). Netfilter: - Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain ownership. - Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set type. Compact a few related data structures. BPF: - Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted & unprivileged application. - Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs. - Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate it. - Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock critical sections. - Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops type. - Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links. - Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF firewalls. - Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF objects. Wireless: - Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support. - Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation. Driver API: - Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers. - Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from drivers. - IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions. - Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level, to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code. - Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields. Misc: - Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests. - Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies. - Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking. - Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some other "class type". Drivers: - Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Add a new driver for Marvell's Octeon PCI Endpoint NIC VF. - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - support E825-C devices - nVidia/Mellanox: - support devices with one port and multiple PCIe links - Broadcom (bnxt): - support n-tuple filters - support configuring the RSS key - Wangxun (ngbe/txgbe): - implement irq_domain for TXGBE's sub-interrupts - Pensando/AMD: - support XDP - optimize queue submission and wakeup handling (+17% bps) - optimize struct layout, saving 28% of memory on queues - Ethernet NICs embedded and virtual: - Google cloud vNIC: - refactor driver to perform memory allocations for new queue config before stopping and freeing the old queue memory - Synopsys (stmmac): - obey queueMaxSDU and implement counters required by 802.1Qbv - Renesas (ravb): - support packet checksum offload - suspend to RAM and runtime PM support - Ethernet switches: - nVidia/Mellanox: - support for nexthop group statistics - Microchip: - ksz8: implement PHY loopback - add support for KSZ8567, a 7-port 10/100Mbps switch - PTP: - New driver for RENESAS FemtoClock3 Wireless clock generator. - Support OCP PTP cards designed and built by Adva. - CAN: - Support recvmsg() flags for own, local and remote traffic on CAN BCM sockets. - Support for esd GmbH PCIe/402 CAN device family. - m_can: - Rx/Tx submission coalescing - wake on frame Rx - WiFi: - Intel (iwlwifi): - enable signaling and payload protected A-MSDUs - support wider-bandwidth OFDMA - support for new devices - bump FW API to 89 for AX devices; 90 for BZ/SC devices - MediaTek (mt76): - mt7915: newer ADIE version support - mt7925: radio temperature sensor support - Qualcomm (ath11k): - support 6 GHz station power modes: Low Power Indoor (LPI), Standard Power) SP and Very Low Power (VLP) - QCA6390 & WCN6855: support 2 concurrent station interfaces - QCA2066 support - Qualcomm (ath12k): - refactoring in preparation for Multi-Link Operation (MLO) support - 1024 Block Ack window size support - firmware-2.bin support - support having multiple identical PCI devices (firmware needs to have ATH12K_FW_FEATURE_MULTI_QRTR_ID) - QCN9274: support split-PHY devices - WCN7850: enable Power Save Mode in station mode - WCN7850: P2P support - RealTek: - rtw88: support for more rtw8811cu and rtw8821cu devices - rtw89: support SCAN_RANDOM_SN and SET_SCAN_DWELL - rtlwifi: speed up USB firmware initialization - rtwl8xxxu: - RTL8188F: concurrent interface support - Channel Switch Announcement (CSA) support in AP mode - Broadcom (brcmfmac): - per-vendor feature support - per-vendor SAE password setup - DMI nvram filename quirk for ACEPC W5 Pro" * tag 'net-next-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next: (2255 commits) nexthop: Fix splat with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y nexthop: Fix out-of-bounds access during attribute validation nexthop: Only parse NHA_OP_FLAGS for dump messages that require it nexthop: Only parse NHA_OP_FLAGS for get messages that require it bpf: move sleepable flag from bpf_prog_aux to bpf_prog bpf: hardcode BPF_PROG_PACK_SIZE to 2MB * num_possible_nodes() selftests/bpf: Add kprobe multi triggering benchmarks ptp: Move from simple ida to xarray vxlan: Remove generic .ndo_get_stats64 vxlan: Do not alloc tstats manually devlink: Add comments to use netlink gen tool nfp: flower: handle acti_netdevs allocation failure net/packet: Add getsockopt support for PACKET_COPY_THRESH net/netlink: Add getsockopt support for NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID selftests/bpf: Add bpf_arena_htab test. selftests/bpf: Add bpf_arena_list test. selftests/bpf: Add unit tests for bpf_arena_alloc/free_pages bpf: Add helper macro bpf_addr_space_cast() libbpf: Recognize __arena global variables. bpftool: Recognize arena map type ...

2024-01-31selftests: Introduce Makefile variable to list shared bash scriptsBenjamin Poirier
Some tests written in bash source other files in a parent directory. For example, drivers/net/bonding/dev_addr_lists.sh sources net/forwarding/lib.sh. If a subset of tests is exported and run outside the source tree (for example by using `make -C tools/testing/selftests gen_tar TARGETS="drivers/net/bonding"`), these other files must be made available as well. Commit ae108c48b5d2 ("selftests: net: Fix cross-tree inclusion of scripts") addressed this problem by symlinking and copying the sourced files but this only works for direct dependencies. Commit 25ae948b4478 ("selftests/net: add lib.sh") changed net/forwarding/lib.sh to source net/lib.sh. As a result, that latter file must be included as well when the former is exported. This was not handled and was reverted in commit 2114e83381d3 ("selftests: forwarding: Avoid failures to source net/lib.sh"). In order to allow reinstating the inclusion of net/lib.sh from net/forwarding/lib.sh, add a mechanism to list dependent files in a new Makefile variable and export them. This allows sourcing those files using the same expression whether tests are run in-tree or exported. Dependencies are not resolved recursively so transitive dependencies must be listed in TEST_INCLUDES. For example, if net/forwarding/lib.sh sources net/lib.sh; the Makefile related to a test that sources net/forwarding/lib.sh from a parent directory must list: TEST_INCLUDES := \ ../../../net/forwarding/lib.sh \ ../../../net/lib.sh v2: Fix rst syntax in Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst (Jakub Kicinski) v1 (from RFC): * changed TEST_INCLUDES to take relative paths, like other TEST_* variables (Vladimir Oltean) * preserved common "$(MAKE) OUTPUT=... -C ... target" ordering in Makefile (Petr Machata) Signed-off-by: Benjamin Poirier <bpoirier@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2024-01-22kselftests: lib.mk: Add TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR variableMarcos Paulo de Souza
Add TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR variable for kselftests. It can point to a directory containing kernel modules that will be used by selftest scripts. The modules are built as external modules for the running kernel. As a result they are always binary compatible and the same tests can be used for older or newer kernels. The build requires "kernel-devel" package to be installed. For example, in the upstream sources, the rpm devel package is produced by "make rpm-pkg" The modules can be built independently by make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/ or they will be automatically built before running the tests via make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/ run_tests Note that they are _not_ built when running the standalone tests by calling, for example, ./test-state.sh. Along with TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR, it was necessary to create a new install rule. INSTALL_MODS_RULE is needed because INSTALL_SINGLE_RULE would copy the entire TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR directory to the destination, even the files created by Kbuild to compile the modules. The new install rule copies only the .ko files, as we would expect the gen_tar to work.

Core & protocols: - Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev, netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up to 40% - Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and possible leaks - Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active connections to the same destination - Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket structs - Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF - Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to 128KB and namespecifying it - Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving RX performances with some common configurations - Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time - Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to request the deletion of matching entries - Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the datapath first - Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting multicast-like behavior at the TC layer - Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and classifiers (RSVP and tcindex) - More data-race annotations - Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets - Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions - Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form a sub-network using a specific PAN ID - Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support - Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type BPF: - Tons of verifier improvements: - BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large test suite - log improvements - complete precision tracking support for register spills - track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single digit to 50-60% for some programs - support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience - support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the like - several fixes - Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload - Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y - Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques - Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs - Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is identified by its id - Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in sched_ext - Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool integration for the latter - Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints - Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter) Misc: - Support for parellel TC self-tests execution - Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage - Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far undocumented features - Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs - Add TCP-AO self-tests - Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211 - Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec - Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for which we have specs - A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes - Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool Driver API: - Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers in rust - Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface, allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues relationship - Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control application scale to thousands of instances - Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host - Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash - ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD platform - Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic netlink attribute - Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void - Add support for PHY package MMD read/write New hardware / drivers: - Ethernet: - Octeon CN10K devices - Broadcom 5760X P7 - Qualcomm SM8550 SoC - Texas Instrument DP83TG720S PHY - Bluetooth: - IMC Networks Bluetooth radio Removed: - WiFi: - libertas 16-bit PCMCIA support - Atmel at76c50x drivers - HostAP ISA/PCMCIA style 802.11b driver - zd1201 802.11b USB dongles - Orinoco ISA/PCMCIA 802.11b driver - Aviator/Raytheon driver - Planet WL3501 driver - RNDIS USB 802.11b driver Driver updates: - Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - allow one by one port representors creation and removal - add temperature and clock information reporting - add get/set for ethtool's header split ringparam - add again FW logging - adds support switchdev hardware packet mirroring - iavf: implement symmetric-xor RSS hash - igc: add support for concurrent physical and free-running timers - i40e: increase the allowable descriptors - nVidia/Mellanox: - Preparation for Socket-Direct multi-dev netdev.

2023-12-18kunit: Add APIs for managing devicesdavidgow@google.com
Tests for drivers often require a struct device to pass to other functions. While it's possible to create these with root_device_register(), or to use something like a platform device, this is both a misuse of those APIs, and can be difficult to clean up after, for example, a failed assertion. Add some KUnit-specific functions for registering and unregistering a struct device: - kunit_device_register() - kunit_device_register_with_driver() - kunit_device_unregister() These helpers allocate a on a 'kunit' bus which will either probe the driver passed in (kunit_device_register_with_driver), or will create a stub driver (kunit_device_register) which is cleaned up on test shutdown. Devices are automatically unregistered on test shutdown, but can be manually unregistered earlier with kunit_device_unregister() in order to, for example, test device release code.

2023-12-18kunit: Add a macro to wrap a deferred action functionDavid Gow
KUnit's deferred action API accepts a void(*)(void *) function pointer which is called when the test is exited. However, we very frequently want to use existing functions which accept a single pointer, but which may not be of type void*. While this is probably dodgy enough to be on the wrong side of the C standard, it's been often used for similar callbacks, and gcc's -Wcast-function-type seems to ignore cases where the only difference is the type of the argument, assuming it's compatible (i.e., they're both pointers to data). However, clang 16 has introduced -Wcast-function-type-strict, which no longer permits any deviation in function pointer type. This seems to be because it'd break CFI, which validates the type of function calls. This rather ruins our attempts to cast functions to defer them, and leaves us with a few options. The one we've chosen is to implement a macro which will generate a wrapper function which accepts a void*, and casts the argument to the appropriate type. For example, if you were trying to wrap: void foo_close(struct foo *handle); you could use: KUNIT_DEFINE_ACTION_WRAPPER(kunit_action_foo_close, foo_close, struct foo *); This would create a new kunit_action_foo_close() function, of type kunit_action_t, which could be passed into kunit_add_action() and similar functions. In addition to defining this macro, update KUnit and its tests to use it.

2023-10-09Documentation: kselftests: Remove references to bpf testsMarcos Paulo de Souza
Currently the bpf selftests are skipped by default, so is someone would like to run the tests one would need to run: $ make TARGETS=bpf SKIP_TARGETS="" kselftest To overwrite the SKIP_TARGETS that defines bpf by default. Also, following the BPF instructions[1], to run the bpf selftests one would need to enter in the tools/testing/selftests/bpf/ directory, and then run make, which is not the standard way to run selftests per it's documentation. For the reasons above stop mentioning bpf in the kselftests as examples of how to run a test suite.

2023-09-06LoongArch: Add KASAN (Kernel Address Sanitizer) supportQing Zhang
1/8 of kernel addresses reserved for shadow memory. But for LoongArch, There are a lot of holes between different segments and valid address space (256T available) is insufficient to map all these segments to kasan shadow memory with the common formula provided by kasan core, saying (addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET So LoongArch has a arch-specific mapping formula, different segments are mapped individually, and only limited space lengths of these specific segments are mapped to shadow. At early boot stage the whole shadow region populated with just one physical page (kasan_early_shadow_page). Later, this page is reused as readonly zero shadow for some memory that kasan currently don't track. After mapping the physical memory, pages for shadow memory are allocated and mapped. Functions like memset()/memcpy()/memmove() do a lot of memory accesses. If bad pointer passed to one of these function it is important to be caught. Compiler's instrumentation cannot do this since these functions are written in assembly. KASan replaces memory functions with manually instrumented variants. Original functions declared as weak symbols so strong definitions in mm/kasan/kasan.c could replace them. Original functions have aliases with '__' prefix in names, so we could call non-instrumented variant if needed.

2023-06-19kasan: add support for kasan.fault=panic_on_writeMarco Elver
KASAN's boot time kernel parameter 'kasan.fault=' currently supports 'report' and 'panic', which results in either only reporting bugs or also panicking on reports. However, some users may wish to have more control over when KASAN reports result in a kernel panic: in particular, KASAN reported invalid _writes_ are of special interest, because they have greater potential to corrupt random kernel memory or be more easily exploited. To panic on invalid writes only, introduce 'kasan.fault=panic_on_write', which allows users to choose to continue running on invalid reads, but panic only on invalid writes.

2023-06-12selftests: allow runners to override the timeoutLuis Chamberlain
The default timeout for selftests tests is 45 seconds. Although we already have 13 settings for tests of about 96 sefltests which use a timeout greater than this, we want to try to avoid encouraging more tests to forcing a higher test timeout as selftests strives to run all tests quickly. Selftests also uses the timeout as a non-fatal error. Only tests runners which have control over a system would know if to treat a timeout as fatal or not. To help with all this: o Enhance documentation to avoid future increases of insane timeouts o Add the option to allow overriding the default timeout with test runners with a command line option Suggested-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Muhammad Usama Anjum <usama.anjum@collabora.com> Tested-by:Muhammad Usama Anjum <usama.anjum@collabora.com> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>
