Networking changes for 6.19.
Core & protocols
----------------
- Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting
in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the
number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.
- Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out
of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly
busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
reordering.
- Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.
- Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did
for Rx skbs).
- Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.
- Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly
quite expensive on recent AMD machines.
- Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets.
- Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure,
improving the Rx performance.
- Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.
- Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
(using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit
for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups.
- Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.
- Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT.
- Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily
aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low.
- Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.
- Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.
- Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837).
- Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).
- Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.
- Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.
- Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.
- Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
from Kees.
- Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.
- Some preparations for slimming down struct page.
- YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.
- Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
computed derived statistics and summarized system state.
Driver API
----------
- Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface.
- Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics,
as defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features
for 100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification.
- Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in zl3073x).
- Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads IPsec
and performs RSS.
- Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the default
or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.
- Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload.
- Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame duplication
for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload.
- Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes.
Device drivers
--------------
- Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support.

s390 updates for 6.19 merge window
- Provide a new interface for dynamic configuration and deconfiguration of hotplug memory, allowing with and without memmap_on_memory support. This makes the way memory hotplug is handled on s390 much more similar to other architectures - Remove compat support. There shouldn't be any compat user space around anymore, therefore get rid of a lot of code which also doesn't need to be tested anymore - Add stackprotector support. GCC 16 will get new compiler options, which allow to generate code required for kernel stackprotector support - Merge pai_crypto and pai_ext PMU drivers into a new driver. This removes a lot of duplicated code.

objtool updates for v6.19:
- klp-build livepatch module generation (Josh Poimboeuf)
Introduce new objtool features and a klp-build
script to generate livepatch modules using a
source .patch as input.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree
kpatch project which began in 2012 and has been used for
many years to generate livepatch modules for production kernels.
However, this is a complete rewrite which incorporates
hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc
inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script
which injects #line directives into the source .patch to preserve
the original line numbers at compile time.
- Disassemble code with libopcodes instead of running objdump
(Alexandre Chartre)
- Disassemble support (-d option to objtool) by Alexandre Chartre,
which supports the decoding of various Linux kernel code generation

Merge tag 'namespace-6.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains substantial namespace infrastructure changes including a new
system call, active reference counting, and extensive header cleanups.
The branch depends on the shared kbuild branch for -fms-extensions support.
Features:
- listns() system call
Add a new listns() system call that allows userspace to iterate
through namespaces in the system. This provides a programmatic
interface to discover and inspect namespaces, addressing
longstanding limitations:
Currently, there is no direct way for userspace to enumerate
namespaces. Applications must resort to scanning /proc/*/ns/ across
all processes, which is:
- Inefficient - requires iterating over all processes
- Incomplete - misses namespaces not attached to any running
process but kept alive by file descriptors, bind mounts, or
parent references
- Permission-heavy - requires access to /proc for many processes
- No ordering or ownership information
- No filtering per namespace type
The listns() system call solves these problems:
ssize_t listns(const struct ns_id_req *req, u64 *ns_ids,
size_t nr_ns_ids, unsigned int flags);
struct ns_id_req {
__u32 size;
__u32 spare;
__u64 ns_id;
struct /* listns */ {
__u32 ns_type;
__u32 spare2;
__u64 user_ns_id;
};
};
Features include:
- Pagination support for large namespace sets
- Filtering by namespace type (MNT_NS, NET_NS, USER_NS, etc.)
- Filtering by owning user namespace
- Permission checks respecting namespace isolation
- Active Reference Counting
Introduce an active reference count that tracks namespace
visibility to userspace. A namespace is visible in the following
cases:
- The namespace is in use by a task
- The namespace is persisted through a VFS object (namespace file
descriptor or bind-mount)
- The namespace is a hierarchical type and is the parent of child
namespaces
The active reference count does not regulate lifetime (that's still
done by the normal reference count) - it only regulates visibility
to namespace file handles and listns().
This prevents resurrection of namespaces that are pinned only for
internal kernel reasons (e.g., user namespaces held by
file->f_cred, lazy TLB references on idle CPUs, etc.) which should
not be accessible via (1)-(3).
- Unified Namespace Tree
Introduce a unified tree structure for all namespaces with:
- Fixed IDs assigned to initial namespaces
- Lookup based solely on inode number
- Maintained list of owned namespaces per user namespace
- Simplified rbtree comparison helpers
Cleanups
- Header Reorganization:
- Move namespace types into separate header (ns_common_types.h)
- Decouple nstree from ns_common header
- Move nstree types into separate header
- Switch to new ns_tree_{node,root} structures with helper functions
- Use guards for ns_tree_lock
- Initial Namespace Reference Count Optimization
- Make all reference counts on initial namespaces a nop to avoid
pointless cacheline ping-pong for namespaces that can never go
away
- Drop custom reference count initialization for initial namespaces
- Add NS_COMMON_INIT() macro and use it for all namespaces
- pid: rely on common reference count behavior
- Miscellaneous Cleanups
- Rename exit_task_namespaces() to exit_nsproxy_namespaces()
- Rename is_initial_namespace() and make argument const
- Use boolean to indicate anonymous mount namespace
- Simplify owner list iteration in nstree
- nsfs: raise SB_I_NODEV, SB_I_NOEXEC, and DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly
- nsfs: use inode_just_drop()
- pidfs: raise DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly
- pidfs: simplify PIDFD_GET__NAMESPACE ioctls
- libfs: allow to specify s_d_flags
- cgroup: add cgroup namespace to tree after owner is set
- nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces()
Fixes:
- setns(pidfd, ...) race condition
Fix a subtle race when using pidfds with setns(). When the target
task exits after prepare_nsset() but before commit_nsset(), the
namespace's active reference count might have been dropped. If
setns() then installs the namespaces, it would bump the active
reference count from zero without taking the required reference on
the owner namespace, leading to underflow when later decremented.
The fix resurrects the ownership chain if necessary - if the caller
succeeded in grabbing passive references, the setns() should
succeed even if the target task exits or gets reaped.

bpf, x86: add new map type: instructions array
On bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD) syscall user-supplied BPF programs are
translated by the verifier into "xlated" BPF programs. During this
process the original instructions offsets might be adjusted and/or
individual instructions might be replaced by new sets of instructions,
or deleted.
Add a new BPF map type which is aimed to keep track of how, for a
given program, the original instructions were relocated during the
verification. Also, besides keeping track of the original -> xlated
mapping, make x86 JIT to build the xlated -> jitted mapping for every
instruction listed in an instruction array. This is required for every
future application of instruction arrays: static keys, indirect jumps
and indirect calls.
A map of the BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY type must be created with a u32
keys and value of size 8. The values have different semantics for
userspace and for BPF space. For userspace a value consists of two
u32 values – xlated and jitted offsets. For BPF side the value is
a real pointer to a jitted instruction.
On map creation/initialization, before loading the program, each
element of the map should be initialized to point to an instruction
offset within the program. Before the program load such maps should
be made frozen. After the program verification xlated and jitted
offsets can be read via the bpf(2) syscall.
If a tracked instruction is removed by the verifier, then the xlated
offset is set to (u32)-1 which is considered to be too big for a valid
BPF program offset.
One such a map can, obviously, be used to track one and only one BPF
program. If the verification process was unsuccessful, then the same
map can be re-used to verify the program with a different log level.
However, if the program was loaded fine, then such a map, being
frozen in any case, can't be reused by other programs even after the
program release.
Example. Consider the following original and xlated programs:
Original prog: Xlated prog:
0: r1 = 0x0 0: r1 = 0
1: *(u32 *)(r10 - 0x4) = r1 1: *(u32 *)(r10 -4) = r1
2: r2 = r10 2: r2 = r10
3: r2 += -0x4 3: r2 += -4
4: r1 = 0x0 ll 4: r1 = map[id:88]
6: call 0x1 6: r1 += 272
7: r0 = *(u32 *)(r2 +0)
8: if r0 >= 0x1 goto pc+3
9: r0 <<= 3
10: r0 += r1
11: goto pc+1
12: r0 = 0
7: r6 = r0 13: r6 = r0
8: if r6 == 0x0 goto +0x2 14: if r6 == 0x0 goto pc+4
9: call 0x76 15: r0 = 0xffffffff8d2079c0
17: r0 = *(u64 *)(r0 +0)
10: *(u64 *)(r6 + 0x0) = r0 18: *(u64 *)(r6 +0) = r0
11: r0 = 0x0 19: r0 = 0x0
12: exit 20: exit
An instruction array map, containing, e.g., instructions [0,4,7,12]
will be translated by the verifier to [0,4,13,20]. A map with
index 5 (the middle of 16-byte instruction) or indexes greater than 12
(outside the program boundaries) would be rejected.
The functionality provided by this patch will be extended in consequent
patches to implement BPF Static Keys, indirect jumps, and indirect calls.

net: Extend NAPI threaded polling to allow kthread based busy polling
Add a new state NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL to the NAPI state enum to enable and disable threaded busy polling. When threaded busy polling is enabled for a NAPI, enable NAPI_STATE_THREADED also. When the threaded NAPI is scheduled, set NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL to signal napi_complete_done not to rearm interrupts. Whenever NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL is unset, the NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL will be unset, napi_complete_done unsets the NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED bit also, which in turn will make the kthread go to sleep.

perf: Support deferred user unwind
Add support for deferred userspace unwind to perf. Where perf currently relies on in-place stack unwinding; from NMI context and all that. This moves the userspace part of the unwind to right before the return-to-userspace. This has two distinct benefits, the biggest is that it moves the unwind to a faultable context. It becomes possible to fault in debug info (.eh_frame, SFrame etc.) that might not otherwise be readily available. And secondly, it de-duplicates the user callchain where multiple samples happen during the same kernel entry. To facilitate this the perf interface is extended with a new record type: PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED and two new attribute flags: perf_event_attr::defer_callchain - to request the user unwind be deferred perf_event_attr::defer_output - to request PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED records The existing PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE callchain section gets a new context type: PERF_CONTEXT_USER_DEFERRED After which will come a single entry, denoting the 'cookie' of the deferred callchain that should be attached here, matching the 'cookie' field of the above mentioned PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED. The 'defer_callchain' flag is expected on all events with PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN. The 'defer_output' flag is expect on the event responsible for collecting side-band events (like mmap, comm etc.). Setting 'defer_output' on multiple events will get you duplicated PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED records. Based on earlier patches by Josh and Steven.

bpf: Add overwrite mode for BPF ring buffer
When the BPF ring buffer is full, a new event cannot be recorded until one
or more old events are consumed to make enough space for it. In cases such
as fault diagnostics, where recent events are more useful than older ones,
this mechanism may lead to critical events being lost.
So add overwrite mode for BPF ring buffer to address it. In this mode, the
new event overwrites the oldest event when the buffer is full.
The basic idea is as follows:
1. producer_pos tracks the next position to record new event. When there
is enough free space, producer_pos is simply advanced by producer to
make space for the new event.
2. To avoid waiting for consumer when the buffer is full, a new variable,
overwrite_pos, is introduced for producer. It points to the oldest event
committed in the buffer. It is advanced by producer to discard one or more
oldest events to make space for the new event when the buffer is full.
3. pending_pos tracks the oldest event to be committed. pending_pos is never
passed by producer_pos, so multiple producers never write to the same
position at the same time.
The following example diagrams show how it works in a 4096-byte ring buffer.
1. At first, {producer,overwrite,pending,consumer}_pos are all set to 0.
0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| |
| |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
^
|
|
producer_pos = 0
overwrite_pos = 0
pending_pos = 0
consumer_pos = 0
2. Now reserve a 512-byte event A.
There is enough free space, so A is allocated at offset 0. And producer_pos
is advanced to 512, the end of A. Since A is not submitted, the BUSY bit is
set.
0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| | |
| A | |
| [BUSY] | |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
^ ^
| |
| |
| producer_pos = 512
|
overwrite_pos = 0
pending_pos = 0
consumer_pos = 0
3. Reserve event B, size 1024.
B is allocated at offset 512 with BUSY bit set, and producer_pos is advanced
to the end of B.
0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| | | |
| A | B | |
| [BUSY] | [BUSY] | |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
^ ^
| |
| |
| producer_pos = 1536
|
overwrite_pos = 0
pending_pos = 0
consumer_pos = 0
4. Reserve event C, size 2048.
C is allocated at offset 1536, and producer_pos is advanced to 3584.
0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| | | | |
| A | B | C | |
| [BUSY] | [BUSY] | [BUSY] | |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
^ ^
| |
| |
| producer_pos = 3584
|
overwrite_pos = 0
pending_pos = 0
consumer_pos = 0
5. Submit event A.
The BUSY bit of A is cleared. B becomes the oldest event to be committed, so
pending_pos is advanced to 512, the start of B.
0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| | | | |
| A | B | C | |
| | [BUSY] | [BUSY] | |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
^ ^ ^
| | |
| | |
| pending_pos = 512 producer_pos = 3584
|
overwrite_pos = 0
consumer_pos = 0
6. Submit event B.
The BUSY bit of B is cleared, and pending_pos is advanced to the start of C,
which is now the oldest event to be committed.
0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| | | | |
| A | B | C | |
| | | [BUSY] | |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
^ ^ ^
| | |
| | |
| pending_pos = 1536 producer_pos = 3584
|
overwrite_pos = 0
consumer_pos = 0
7. Reserve event D, size 1536 (3 * 512).
There are 2048 bytes not being written between producer_pos (currently 3584)
and pending_pos, so D is allocated at offset 3584, and producer_pos is advanced
by 1536 (from 3584 to 5120).
Since event D will overwrite all bytes of event A and the first 512 bytes of
event B, overwrite_pos is advanced to the start of event C, the oldest event
that is not overwritten.
0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| | | | |
| D End | | C | D Begin|
| [BUSY] | | [BUSY] | [BUSY] |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
^ ^ ^
| | |
| | pending_pos = 1536
| | overwrite_pos = 1536
| |
| producer_pos=5120
|
consumer_pos = 0
8. Reserve event E, size 1024.
Although there are 512 bytes not being written between producer_pos and
pending_pos, E cannot be reserved, as it would overwrite the first 512
bytes of event C, which is still being written.
9. Submit event C and D.
pending_pos is advanced to the end of D.
0 512 1024 1536 2048 2560 3072 3584 4096
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| | | | |
| D End | | C | D Begin|
| | | | |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
^ ^ ^

| | overwrite_pos = 1536
| |
| producer_pos=5120
| pending_pos=5120
|
consumer_pos = 0
The performance data for overwrite mode will be provided in a follow-up
patch that adds overwrite-mode benchmarks.
A sample of performance data for non-overwrite mode, collected on an x86_64
CPU and an arm64 CPU, before and after this patch, is shown below. As we can
see, no obvious performance regression occurs.

bpf: widen dynptr size/offset to 64 bit
Dynptr currently caps size and offset at 24 bits, which isn’t sufficient for file-backed use cases; even 32 bits can be limiting. Refactor dynptr helpers/kfuncs to use 64-bit size and offset, ensuring consistency across the APIs. This change does not affect internals of xdp, skb or other dynptrs, which continue to behave as before. Also it does not break binary compatibility. The widening enables large-file access support via dynptr, implemented in the next patches.

tools/nolibc: x86: fix section mismatch caused by asm "mem*" functions
I recently got occasional build failures at -Os or -Oz that would always
involve waitpid(), where the assembler would complain about this:
init.s: Error: .size expression for waitpid.constprop.0 does not evaluate to a constant
And without -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables it could also spit such
errors:
init.s:836: Error: CFI instruction used without previous .cfi_startproc
init.s:838: Error: .cfi_endproc without corresponding .cfi_startproc
init.s: Error: open CFI at the end of file; missing .cfi_endproc directive
A trimmed down reproducer is as simple as this:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int ret, status;
if (argc == 0)
ret = waitpid(-1, &status, 0);
else
ret = waitpid(-1, &status, 0);
return status;
}
It produces the following asm code on x86_64:
.text
.section .text.nolibc_memmove_memcpy
.weak memmove
.weak memcpy
memmove:
memcpy:
movq %rdx, %rcx
(...)
retq
.section .text.nolibc_memset
.weak memset
memset:
xchgl %eax, %esi
movq %rdx, %rcx
pushq %rdi
rep stosb
popq %rax
retq
.type waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0, @function
waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0:
subq $8, %rsp
(...)
jmp *.L5(,%rax,8)
.section .rodata
.align 8
.align 4
.L5:
.quad .L10
(...)
.quad .L4
.text
.L10:
(...)
.cfi_def_cfa_offset 8
ret
.cfi_endproc
.LFE273:
.size waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0, .-waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0
It's a bit dense, but here's the explanation: the compiler has emitted a
".text" statement because it knows it's working in the .text section.
Then, our hand-written asm code for the mem* functions forced the section
to .text.something without the compiler knowing about it, so it thinks
the code is still being emitted for .text. As such, without any .section
statement, the waitpid.constprop.0.isra.0 label is in fact placed in the
previously created section, here .text.nolibc_memset.
The waitpid() function involves a switch/case statement that can be
turned to a jump table, which is what the compiler does with the .rodata
section, and after that it restores .text, which is no longer the
previous .text.nolibc_memset section. Then the CFI statements cross a
section, so does the .size calculation, which explains the error.
While a first approach consisting in placing an explicit ".text" at the
end of these functions was verified to work, it's still unreliable as
it depends on what the compiler remembers having emitted previously. A
better approach is to replace the ".section" with ".pushsection", and
place a ".popsection" at the end, so that these code blocks are agnostic
to where they're placed relative to other blocks.

bpf: Introduce SK_BPF_BYPASS_PROT_MEM.
If a socket has sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem flagged, the socket opts out
of the global protocol memory accounting.
This is easily controlled by net.core.bypass_prot_mem sysctl, but it
lacks flexibility.
Let's support flagging (and clearing) sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem via
bpf_setsockopt() at the BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE hook.
int val = 1;
bpf_setsockopt(ctx, SOL_SOCKET, SK_BPF_BYPASS_PROT_MEM,
&val, sizeof(val));
As with net.core.bypass_prot_mem, this is inherited to child sockets,
and BPF always takes precedence over sysctl at socket(2) and accept(2).
SK_BPF_BYPASS_PROT_MEM is only supported at BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE
and not supported on other hooks for some reasons:
1. UDP charges memory under sk->sk_receive_queue.lock instead
of lock_sock()
2. Modifying the flag after skb is charged to sk requires such
adjustment during bpf_setsockopt() and complicates the logic
unnecessarily
We can support other hooks later if a real use case justifies that.
Most changes are inline and hard to trace, but a microbenchmark on
__sk_mem_raise_allocated() during neper/tcp_stream showed that more
samples completed faster with sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem == 1. This will
be more visible under tcp_mem pressure (but it's not a fair comparison).
# bpftrace -e 'kprobe:__sk_mem_raise_allocated { @start[tid] = nsecs; }
kretprobe:__sk_mem_raise_allocated /@start[tid]/
{ @end[tid] = nsecs - @start[tid]; @times = hist(@end[tid]); delete(@start[tid]); }'

objtool/klp: Introduce klp diff subcommand for diffing object files
Add a new klp diff subcommand which performs a binary diff between two
object files and extracts changed functions into a new object which can
then be linked into a livepatch module.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch [1]
project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to generate
livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a complete
rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of
maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc
inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script
(coming in a later patch) which injects #line directives into the
source .patch to preserve the original line numbers at compile time.
Note the end result of this subcommand is not yet functionally complete.
Livepatch needs some ELF magic which linkers don't like:
- Two relocation sections (.rela*, .klp.rela*) for the same text
section.
- Use of SHN_LIVEPATCH to mark livepatch symbols.
Unfortunately linkers tend to mangle such things. To work around that,
klp diff generates a linker-compliant intermediate binary which encodes
the relevant KLP section/reloc/symbol metadata.
After module linking, a klp post-link step (coming soon) will clean up
the mess and convert the linked .ko into a fully compliant livepatch
module.
Note this subcommand requires the diffed binaries to have been compiled
with -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections, and processed with
'objtool --checksum'. Those constraints will be handled by a klp-build
script introduced in a later patch.
Without '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections', reliable object diffing
would be infeasible due to toolchain limitations:
- For intra-file+intra-section references, the compiler might
occasionally generated hard-coded instruction offsets instead of
relocations.
- Section-symbol-based references can be ambiguous:
- Overlapping or zero-length symbols create ambiguity as to which
symbol is being referenced.
- A reference to the end of a symbol (e.g., checking array bounds)
can be misinterpreted as a reference to the next symbol, or vice
versa.
A potential future alternative to '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections'
would be to introduce a toolchain option that forces symbol-based
(non-section) relocations.

objtool: Add ANNOTATE_DATA_SPECIAL
In preparation for the objtool klp diff subcommand, add an ANNOTATE_DATA_SPECIAL macro which annotates special section entries so that objtool can determine their size and location and extract them when needed.

interval_tree: Fix ITSTATIC usage for *_subtree_search()
For consistency with the other function templates, change _subtree_search_*() to use the user-supplied ITSTATIC rather than the hard-coded 'static'. Acked-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Tested-by: Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> |

interval_tree: Sync interval_tree_generic.h with tools
The following commit made an improvement to interval_tree_generic.h, but
didn't sync it to the tools copy:
19811285784f ("lib/interval_tree: skip the check before go to the right subtree")
Sync it, and add it to objtool's sync-check.sh so they are more likely
to stay in sync going forward.

- Remove a bunch of asm implementing condition flags testing in KVM's
emulator in favor of int3_emulate_jcc() which is written in C - Replace KVM fastops with C-based stubs which avoids problems with the fastop infra related to latter not adhering to the C ABI due to their special calling convention and, more importantly, bypassing compiler control-flow integrity checking because they're written in asm - Remove wrongly used static branches and other ugliness accumulated over time in hyperv's hypercall implementation with a proper static function call to the correct hypervisor call variant - Add some fixes and modifications to allow running FRED-enabled kernels in KVM even on non-FRED hardware - Add kCFI improvements like validating indirect calls and prepare for enabling kCFI with GCC.
