[PATCH bpf-next v12 0/7] bpf: Introduce BPF_F_CPU and BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flags for percpu maps

by Leon Hwang

This patch set introduces the BPF_F_CPU and BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flags for percpu maps, as the requirement of BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flag for percpu_array maps was discussed in the thread of "[PATCH bpf-next v3 0/4] bpf: Introduce global percpu data"[1]. The goal of BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flag is to reduce data caching overhead in light skeletons by allowing a single value to be reused to update values across all CPUs. This avoids the M:N problem where M cached values are used to update a map on N CPUs kernel. The BPF_F_CPU flag is accompanied by *flags*-embedded cpu info, which specifies the target CPU for the operation: * For lookup operations: the flag field alongside cpu info enable querying a value on the specified CPU. * For update operations: the flag field alongside cpu info enable updating value for specified CPU.

[PATCH net-next v6 0/5] netconsole: support automatic target recovery

by Andre Carvalho

This patchset introduces target resume capability to netconsole allowing it to recover targets when underlying low-level interface comes back online. The patchset starts by refactoring netconsole state representation in order to allow representing deactivated targets (targets that are disabled due to interfaces going down). It then modifies netconsole to handle NETDEV_UP events for such targets and setups netpoll. Targets are matched with incoming interfaces depending on how they were initially bound in netconsole (by mac or interface name). The patchset includes a selftest that validates netconsole target state transitions and that target is functional after resumed.

[PATCH v2 0/9] Initial DMABUF support for iommufd

by Jason Gunthorpe

This series is the start of adding full DMABUF support to iommufd. Currently it is limited to only work with VFIO's DMABUF exporter. It sits on top of Leon's series to add a DMABUF exporter to VFIO: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251120-dmabuf-vfio-v9-0-d7f71607f371@nvidia.c… The existing IOMMU_IOAS_MAP_FILE is enhanced to detect DMABUF fd's, but otherwise works the same as it does today for a memfd. The user can select a slice of the FD to map into the ioas and if the underliyng alignment requirements are met it will be placed in the iommu_domain. Though limited, it is enough to allow a VMM like QEMU to connect MMIO BAR memory from VFIO to an iommu_domain controlled by iommufd. This is used for PCI Peer to Peer support in VMs, and is the last feature that the VFIO type 1 container has that iommufd couldn't do. The VFIO type1 version extracts raw PFNs from VMAs, which has no lifetime control and is a use-after-free security problem. Instead iommufd relies on revokable DMABUFs. Whenever VFIO thinks there should be no access to the MMIO it can shoot down the mapping in iommufd which will unmap it from the iommu_domain. There is no automatic remap, this is a safety protocol so the kernel doesn't get stuck. Userspace is expected to know it is doing something that will revoke the dmabuf and map/unmap it around the activity. Eg when QEMU goes to issue FLR it should do the map/unmap to iommufd. Since DMABUF is missing some key general features for this use case it relies on a "private interconnect" between VFIO and iommufd via the vfio_pci_dma_buf_iommufd_map() call. The call confirms the DMABUF has revoke semantics and delivers a phys_addr for the memory suitable for use with iommu_map(). Medium term there is a desire to expand the supported DMABUFs to include GPU drivers to support DPDK/SPDK type use cases so future series will work to add a general concept of revoke and a general negotiation of interconnect to remove vfio_pci_dma_buf_iommufd_map(). I also plan another series to modify iommufd's vfio_compat to transparently pull a dmabuf out of a VFIO VMA to emulate more of the uAPI of type1. The latest series for interconnect negotation to exchange a phys_addr is: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251027044712.1676175-1-vivek.kasireddy@intel.com And the discussion for design of revoke is here: https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/20250114173103.GE5556@nvidia.com/ This is on github: https://github.com/jgunthorpe/linux/commits/iommufd_dmabuf v2: - Rebase on Leon's v9 - Fix mislocking in an iopt_fill_domain() error path - Revise the comments around how the sub page offset works - Remove a useless WARN_ON in iopt_pages_rw_access() - Fixed missed memory free in the selftest v1: https://patch.msgid.link/r/0-v1-64bed2430cdb+31b-iommufd_dmabuf_jgg@nvidia.… Jason Gunthorpe (9): vfio/pci: Add vfio_pci_dma_buf_iommufd_map() iommufd: Add DMABUF to iopt_pages iommufd: Do not map/unmap revoked DMABUFs iommufd: Allow a DMABUF to be revoked iommufd: Allow MMIO pages in a batch iommufd: Have pfn_reader process DMABUF iopt_pages iommufd: Have iopt_map_file_pages convert the fd to a file iommufd: Accept a DMABUF through IOMMU_IOAS_MAP_FILE iommufd/selftest: Add some tests for the dmabuf flow drivers/iommu/iommufd/io_pagetable.c | 78 +++- drivers/iommu/iommufd/io_pagetable.h | 54 ++- drivers/iommu/iommufd/ioas.c | 8 +- drivers/iommu/iommufd/iommufd_private.h | 14 +- drivers/iommu/iommufd/iommufd_test.h | 10 + drivers/iommu/iommufd/main.c | 10 + drivers/iommu/iommufd/pages.c | 414 ++++++++++++++++-- drivers/iommu/iommufd/selftest.c | 143 ++++++ drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_dmabuf.c | 34 ++ include/linux/vfio_pci_core.h | 4 + tools/testing/selftests/iommu/iommufd.c | 43 ++ tools/testing/selftests/iommu/iommufd_utils.h | 44 ++ 12 files changed, 786 insertions(+), 70 deletions(-) base-commit: f836737ed56db9e2d5b047c56a31e05af0f3f116 -- 2.43.0

[PATCH] selftests/filesystems: Assume that TIOCGPTPEER is defined

by Mark Brown

The devpts_pts selftest has an ifdef in case an architecture does not define TIOCGPTPEER, but the handling for this is broken since we need errno to be set to EINVAL in order to skip the test as we should. Given that this ioctl() has been defined since v4.15 we may as well just assume it's there rather than write handling code which will probably never get used.

[PATCH v6 0/2] platform/chrome: Fix an UAF via revocable primitive APIs

by Tzung-Bi Shih

The series is separated from [1] to show the independency and compare potential use cases easier. This use case uses the primitive revocable APIs directly. It relies on the revocable core part [2]. It tries to fix an UAF in the fops of cros_ec_chardev after the underlying protocol device has gone by using revocable. The file operations make sure the resources are available when using them. Even though it has the finest grain for accessing the resources, it makes the user code verbose. Per feedback from the community, I'm looking for some subsystem level helpers so that user code can be simlper. The 1st patch converts existing protocol devices to resource providers of cros_ec_device. The 2nd patch converts cros_ec_chardev to a resource consumer of cros_ec_device to fix the UAF.

[PATCH 00/32] ns: support file handles

by Christian Brauner

For a while now we have supported file handles for pidfds. This has proven to be very useful. Extend the concept to cover namespaces as well. After this patchset it is possible to encode and decode namespace file handles using the commong name_to_handle_at() and open_by_handle_at() apis. Namespaces file descriptors can already be derived from pidfds which means they aren't subject to overmount protection bugs. IOW, it's irrelevant if the caller would not have access to an appropriate /proc/<pid>/ns/ directory as they could always just derive the namespace based on a pidfd already. It has the same advantage as pidfds. It's possible to reliably and for the lifetime of the system refer to a namespace without pinning any resources and to compare them. Permission checking is kept simple. If the caller is located in the namespace the file handle refers to they are able to open it otherwise they must hold privilege over the owning namespace of the relevant namespace. Both the network namespace and the mount namespace already have an associated cookie that isn't recycled and is fully exposed to userspace. Move this into ns_common and use the same id space for all namespaces so they can trivially and reliably be compared. There's more coming based on the iterator infrastructure but the series is large enough and focuses on file handles. Extensive selftests included. I still have various other test-suites to run but it holds up so far.

[PATCH v6 net-next 00/14] AccECN protocol case handling series

by chia-yu.chang＠nokia-bell-labs.com

From: Chia-Yu Chang <chia-yu.chang(a)nokia-bell-labs.com> Hello, Plesae find the v5 AccECN case handling patch series, which covers several excpetional case handling of Accurate ECN spec (RFC9768), adds new identifiers to be used by CC modules, adds ecn_delta into rate_sample, and keeps the ACE counter for computation, etc. This patch series is part of the full AccECN patch series, which is available at https://github.com/L4STeam/linux-net-next/commits/upstream_l4steam/ Best regards, Chia-Yu --- v6: - Update comment in #3 to highlight RX path is only used for virtio-net (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Rename TCP_CONG_WANTS_ECT_1 to TCP_CONG_ECT_1_NEGOTIATION to distiguish from TCP_CONG_ECT_1_ESTABLISH (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Move TCP_CONG_ECT_1_ESTABLISH in #6 to latter patch series (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Add new synack_type instead of moving the increment of num_retran in #9 (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Use new synack_type TCP_SYNACK_RETRANS and num_retrans for SYN/ACK retx fallbackk for AccECN in #10 (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Do not cast const struct into non-const in #11, and set AccECN fail mode after tcp_rtx_synack() (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) v5: - Move previous #11 in v4 in latter patch after discussion with RFC author. - Add #3 to update the comments for SKB_GSO_TCP_ECN and SKB_GSO_TCP_ACCECN. (Parav Pandit <parav(a)nvidia.com>) - Add gro self-test for TCP CWR flag in #4. (Eric Dumazet <edumazet(a)google.com>) - Add fixes: tag into #7 (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Update commit message of #8 and if condition check (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Add empty line between variable declarations and code in #13 (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) v4: - Add previous #13 in v2 back after dicussion with the RFC author. - Add TCP_ACCECN_OPTION_PERSIST to tcp_ecn_option sysctl to ignore AccECN fallback policy on sending AccECN option. v3: - Add additional min() check if pkts_acked_ewma is not initialized in #1. (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Change TCP_CONG_WANTS_ECT_1 into individual flag add helper function INET_ECN_xmit_wants_ect_1() in #3. (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Add empty line between variable declarations and code in #4. (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Update commit message to fix old AccECN commits in #5. (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Remove unnecessary brackets in #10. (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) - Move patch #3 in v2 to a later Prague patch serise and remove patch #13 in v2. (Paolo Abeni <pabeni(a)redhat.com>) --- Chia-Yu Chang (12): net: update commnets for SKB_GSO_TCP_ECN and SKB_GSO_TCP_ACCECN selftests/net: gro: add self-test for TCP CWR flag tcp: ECT_1_NEGOTIATION and NEEDS_ACCECN identifiers tcp: disable RFC3168 fallback identifier for CC modules tcp: accecn: handle unexpected AccECN negotiation feedback tcp: accecn: retransmit downgraded SYN in AccECN negotiation tcp: add TCP_SYNACK_RETRANS synack_type tcp: accecn: retransmit SYN/ACK without AccECN option or non-AccECN SYN/ACK tcp: accecn: unset ECT if receive or send ACE=0 in AccECN negotiaion tcp: accecn: fallback outgoing half link to non-AccECN tcp: accecn: detect loss ACK w/ AccECN option and add TCP_ACCECN_OPTION_PERSIST tcp: accecn: enable AccECN Ilpo Järvinen (2): tcp: try to avoid safer when ACKs are thinned gro: flushing when CWR is set negatively affects AccECN Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.rst | 4 +- .../networking/net_cachelines/tcp_sock.rst | 1 + include/linux/skbuff.h | 14 ++- include/linux/tcp.h | 4 +- include/net/inet_ecn.h | 20 +++- include/net/tcp.h | 32 ++++++- include/net/tcp_ecn.h | 92 ++++++++++++++----- net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c | 4 + net/ipv4/sysctl_net_ipv4.c | 4 +- net/ipv4/tcp.c | 2 + net/ipv4/tcp_cong.c | 5 +- net/ipv4/tcp_input.c | 37 +++++++- net/ipv4/tcp_minisocks.c | 46 +++++++--- net/ipv4/tcp_offload.c | 3 +- net/ipv4/tcp_output.c | 32 ++++--- net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c | 3 + tools/testing/selftests/net/gro.c | 80 +++++++++++----- 17 files changed, 295 insertions(+), 88 deletions(-) -- 2.34.1
