Modules changes for 6.15-rc1
- Use RCU instead of RCU-sched The mix of rcu_read_lock(), rcu_read_lock_sched() and preempt_disable() in the module code and its users has been replaced with just rcu_read_lock(). - The rest of changes are smaller fixes and updates. The changes have been on linux-next for at least 2 weeks, with the RCU cleanup present for 2 months. One performance problem was reported with the RCU change when KASAN + lockdep were enabled, but it was effectively addressed by the already merged ee57ab5a3212 ("locking/lockdep: Disable KASAN instrumentation of lockdep.c"). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFIBAABCAAyFiEEIduBR9MnFA82q/jtumpXJwqY6poFAmfmwrsUHHBldHIucGF2 bHVAc3VzZS5jb20ACgkQumpXJwqY6prWxgf/S7Pvdywm10vJ6fooYa+GxXNMwhyh XRjZ4m9gjeTNf2KLwX0XHv0XZeFHOmHfjd3iI+pS6CXZnCFTN9J3XPLYsrTxXUb6 U6zzLf8Zsz8TzeI4dgvSBsZln7oICSACkAgdJCq23hpNKeaeRo91dgiZaIwyZJG3 FekqSFtP7pYhfFoNkrFKysqbgl1+RWWZ79L2qRJA0bPzVFlvRUuh6cOHQw+8RMqf BYLwnArjTkW8AcXpxIXSiwphDHVZ81B96xoplavyoprA5FDpv1W+8y4DtxdWFn+1 QVWCs/ZV3KrwXWpZev625w3fIOOIXILqRINOzLfvXTw+1xFS3TzSQEpVeg== =4OKc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'modules-6.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/modules/linux Pull modules updates from Petr Pavlu: - Use RCU instead of RCU-sched The mix of rcu_read_lock(), rcu_read_lock_sched() and preempt_disable() in the module code and its users has been replaced with just rcu_read_lock() - The rest of changes are smaller fixes and updates * tag 'modules-6.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/modules/linux: (32 commits) MAINTAINERS: Update the MODULE SUPPORT section module: Remove unnecessary size argument when calling strscpy() module: Replace deprecated strncpy() with strscpy() params: Annotate struct module_param_attrs with __counted_by() bug: Use RCU instead RCU-sched to protect module_bug_list. static_call: Use RCU in all users of __module_text_address(). kprobes: Use RCU in all users of __module_text_address(). bpf: Use RCU in all users of __module_text_address(). jump_label: Use RCU in all users of __module_text_address(). jump_label: Use RCU in all users of __module_address(). x86: Use RCU in all users of __module_address(). cfi: Use RCU while invoking __module_address(). powerpc/ftrace: Use RCU in all users of __module_text_address().

Networking changes for 6.15.
Core & protocols ---------------- - Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock (IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls). - Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock. - Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked) in BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance. - Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy Rx via io_uring. - Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%. - Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream performance up to 2x. - Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching for an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock. Bring an additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution. - Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%. - Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under ping flood. - Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win. - Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly identify network namespaces and their roles. There are up to 4 namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns pointer arguments, interpreted differently based on context. - Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access. - Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout in TCP. - Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches. - Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST. - Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP sockets. - Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin users. - Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack. - Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a module. - Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar to normal bridging. - Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels. - netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name to messages as metadata Driver API ---------- - Continue rework / fixing of Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) across the SW layers. Delegate the responsibilities to phylink where possible. Improve its handling in phylib. - Support symmetric OR-XOR RSS hashing algorithm. - Support tracking and preserving IRQ affinity by NAPI itself. - Support loopback mode speed selection for interface selftests.

Refactor the #ifdef guards so that the simple implementation is also used with SLUB_TINY. Remove the need for RCU to recognize fake callback function pointers (__is_kvfree_rcu_offset()) when handling call_rcu() by implementing a callback that calculates the object's address from the embedded rcu_head address without knowing its offset. - Improve kmalloc cache randomization in kvmalloc (GONG Ruiqi) Due to an extra layer of function call, all kvmalloc() allocations used the same set of random caches.

kunit/stackinit: Use fill byte different from Clang i386 pattern
The byte initialization values used with -ftrivial-auto-var-init=pattern (CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN=y) depends on the compiler, architecture, and byte position relative to struct member types. On i386 with Clang, this includes the 0xFF value, which means it looks like nothing changes between the leaf byte filling pass and the expected "stack wiping" pass of the stackinit test. Use the byte fill value of 0x99 instead, fixing the test for i386 Clang builds.

kunit/overflow: Fix DEFINE_FLEX tests for counted_by
Unfortunately, __builtin_dynamic_object_size() does not take into account flexible array sizes, even when they are sized by __counted_by. As a result, the size tests for the flexible arrays need to be separated to get an accurate check of the compiler's behavior. While at it, fully test sizeof, __struct_size (bdos(..., 0)), and __member_size (bdos(..., 1)). I still think this is a compiler design issue, but there's not much to be done about it currently beyond adjusting these tests. GCC and Clang agree on this behavior at least. :) Reported-by: "Thomas Weißschuh" <linux@weissschuh.net> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/e1a1531d-6968-4ae8-a3b5-5ea0547ec4b3@t-8ch.de/ Fixes: 9dd5134c6158 ("kunit/overflow: Adjust for __counted_by with DEFINE_RAW_FLEX()") Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org> |

selftests: add new kallsyms selftests
We lack find_symbol() selftests, so add one. This let's us stress test improvements easily on find_symbol() or optimizations. It also inherently allows us to test the limits of kallsyms on Linux today. We test a pathalogical use case for kallsyms by introducing modules which are automatically written for us with a larger number of symbols. We have 4 kallsyms test modules: A: has KALLSYSMS_NUMSYMS exported symbols B: uses one of A's symbols C: adds KALLSYMS_SCALE_FACTOR * KALLSYSMS_NUMSYMS exported D: adds 2 * the symbols than C By using anything much larger than KALLSYSMS_NUMSYMS as 10,000 and KALLSYMS_SCALE_FACTOR of 8 we segfault today. So we're capped at around 160000 symbols somehow today. We can inpsect that issue at our leasure later, but for now the real value to this test is that this will easily allow us to test improvements on find_symbol(). We want to enable this test on allyesmodconfig builds so we can't use this combination, so instead just use a safe value for now and be informative on the Kconfig symbol documentation about where our thresholds are for testers. We default then to KALLSYSMS_NUMSYMS of just 100 and KALLSYMS_SCALE_FACTOR of 8. On x86_64 we can use perf, for other architectures we just use 'time' and allow for customizations. For example a future enhancements could be done for parisc to check for unaligned accesses which triggers a special special exception handler assembler code inside the kernel. The negative impact on performance is so large on parisc that it keeps track of its accesses on /proc/cpuinfo as UAH: IRQ: CPU0 CPU1 3: 1332 0 SuperIO ttyS0 7: 1270013 0 SuperIO pata_ns87415 64: 320023012 320021431 CPU timer 65: 17080507 20624423 CPU IPI UAH: 10948640 58104 Unaligned access handler traps While at it, this tidies up lib/ test modules to allow us to have a new directory for them. The amount of test modules under lib/ is insane. This should also hopefully showcase how to start doing basic self module writing code, which may be more useful for more complex cases later in the future.
