This fixes a kernel crash caused by kprobes on the symbol in a module
which is unloaded after ftrace_kill() is called.
- Remove unneeded warnings from __arm_kprobe_ftrace()
Remove unneeded WARN messages which can be triggered if the kprobe is

Chasing vfork()'ed tasks on a CID ownership mode switch requires a full
task list walk, which is obviously expensive on large systems.
Avoid that by keeping a list of tasks using a mm MMCID entity in mm::mm_cid
and walk this list instead. This removes the proven to be flaky counting
logic and avoids a full task list walk in the case of vfork()'ed tasks.

Matthieu and Jiri reported stalls where a task endlessly loops in
mm_get_cid() when scheduling in.
It turned out that the logic which handles vfork()'ed tasks is broken. It
is invoked when the number of tasks associated to a process is smaller than
the number of MMCID users. It then walks the task list to find the
vfork()'ed task, but accounts all the already processed tasks as well.
If that double processing brings the number of to be handled tasks to 0,
the walk stops and the vfork()'ed task's CID is not fixed up. As a
consequence a subsequent schedule in fails to acquire a (transitional) CID
and the machine stalls.
Cure this by removing the accounting condition and make the fixup always
walk the full task list if it could not find the exact number of users in
the process' thread list.

A newly forked task is accounted as MMCID user before the task is visible
in the process' thread list and the global task list. This creates the
following problem:
CPU1 CPU2
fork()
sched_mm_cid_fork(tnew1)
tnew1->mm.mm_cid_users++;
tnew1->mm_cid.cid = getcid()
-> preemption
fork()
sched_mm_cid_fork(tnew2)
tnew2->mm.mm_cid_users++;
// Reaches the per CPU threshold
mm_cid_fixup_tasks_to_cpus()
for_each_other(current, p)
....
As tnew1 is not visible yet, this fails to fix up the already allocated CID
of tnew1. As a consequence a subsequent schedule in might fail to acquire a
(transitional) CID and the machine stalls.
Move the invocation of sched_mm_cid_fork() after the new task becomes
visible in the thread and the task list to prevent this.
This also makes it symmetrical vs. exit() where the task is removed as CID
user before the task is removed from the thread and task lists.

scx_enable() uses double-checked locking to lazily initialize a static
kthread_worker pointer. The fast path reads helper locklessly:
if (!READ_ONCE(helper)) { // lockless read -- no helper_mutex
The write side initializes helper under helper_mutex, but previously
used a plain assignment:
helper = kthread_run_worker(0, "scx_enable_helper");
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
plain write -- KCSAN data race with READ_ONCE() above
Since READ_ONCE() on the fast path and the plain write on the
initialization path access the same variable without a common lock,
they constitute a data race. KCSAN requires that all sides of a
lock-free access use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() consistently.
Use a temporary variable to stage the result of kthread_run_worker(),
and only WRITE_ONCE() into helper after confirming the pointer is
valid. This avoids a window where a concurrent caller on the fast path
could observe an ERR pointer via READ_ONCE(helper) before the error
check completes.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix possible NULL pointer dereference in trace_data_alloc()
On the trace_data_alloc() error path, it can call trigger_data_free()
with a NULL pointer. This used to be a kfree() but was changed to
trigger_data_free() to clean up any partial initialization. The issue
is that trigger_data_free() does not expect a NULL pointer. Have
trigger_data_free() return safely on NULL pointer.
- Fix multiple events on the command line and bootconfig
If multiple events are enabled on the command line separately and not
grouped, only the last event gets enabled. That is:
trace_event=sched_switch trace_event=sched_waking
will only enable sched_waking whereas:
trace_event=sched_switch,sched_waking
will enable both.
The bootconfig makes it even worse as the second way is the more
common method.
The issue is that a temporary buffer is used to store the events to
enable later in boot. Each time the cmdline callback is called, it
overwrites what was previously there.
Have the callback append the next value (delimited by a comma) if the
temporary buffer already has content.
- Fix command line trace_buffer_size if >= 2G
The logic to allocate the trace buffer uses "int" for the size
parameter in the command line code causing overflow issues if more
that 2G is specified.

enqueue_task_scx() takes int enq_flags from the sched_class interface.
SCX enqueue flags starting at bit 32 (SCX_ENQ_PREEMPT and above) are
silently truncated when passed through activate_task(). extra_enq_flags
was added as a workaround - storing high bits in rq->scx.extra_enq_flags
and OR-ing them back in enqueue_task_scx(). However, the OR target is
still the int parameter, so the high bits are lost anyway.
The current impact is limited as the only affected flag is SCX_ENQ_PREEMPT
which is informational to the BPF scheduler - its loss means the scheduler
doesn't know about preemption but doesn't cause incorrect behavior.
Fix by renaming the int parameter to core_enq_flags and introducing a
u64 enq_flags local that merges both sources. All downstream functions
already take u64 enq_flags.

Fix an inconsistency between func_states_equal() and
collect_linked_regs():
- regsafe() uses check_ids() to verify that cached and current states
have identical register id mapping.
- func_states_equal() calls regsafe() only for registers computed as
live by compute_live_registers().
- clean_live_states() is supposed to remove dead registers from cached
states, but it can skip states belonging to an iterator-based loop.
- collect_linked_regs() collects all registers sharing the same id,
ignoring the marks computed by compute_live_registers().
Linked registers are stored in the state's jump history.
- backtrack_insn() marks all linked registers for an instruction
as precise whenever one of the linked registers is precise.
The above might lead to a scenario:
- There is an instruction I with register rY known to be dead at I.
- Instruction I is reached via two paths: first A, then B.
- On path A:
- There is an id link between registers rX and rY.
- Checkpoint C is created at I.
- Linked register set {rX, rY} is saved to the jump history.
- rX is marked as precise at I, causing both rX and rY
to be marked precise at C.
- On path B:
- There is no id link between registers rX and rY,
otherwise register states are sub-states of those in C.
- Because rY is dead at I, check_ids() returns true.
- Current state is considered equal to checkpoint C,
propagate_precision() propagates spurious precision
mark for register rY along the path B.
- Depending on a program, this might hit verifier_bug()
in the backtrack_insn(), e.g. if rY ∈ [r1..r5]
and backtrack_insn() spots a function call.
The reproducer program is in the next patch.
This was hit by sched_ext scx_lavd scheduler code.
Changes in tests:
- verifier_scalar_ids.c selftests need modification to preserve
some registers as live for __msg() checks.
- exceptions_assert.c adjusted to match changes in the verifier log,
R0 is dead after conditional instruction and thus does not get
range.
- precise.c adjusted to match changes in the verifier log, register r9
is dead after comparison and it's range is not important for test.

Some of the sizing logic through tracer_alloc_buffers() uses int
internally, causing unexpected behavior if the user passes a value that
does not fit in an int (on my x86 machine, the result is uselessly tiny
buffers).
Fix by plumbing the parameter's real type (unsigned long) through to the
ring buffer allocation functions, which already use unsigned long.
It has always been possible to create larger ring buffers via the sysfs
interface: this only affects the cmdline parameter.

Same as in __reg64_deduce_bounds(), refine s32/u32 ranges

overlaps with u32 range:
0 U32_MAX
| [xxxxxxxxxxxxxx u32 range xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] |
|----------------------------|----------------------------|
|xxxxx s32 range xxxxxxxxx] [xxxxxxx|
0 S32_MAX S32_MIN -1
- s32 range crosses U32_MAX/0 boundary, negative part of the s32 range

0 U32_MAX
| [xxxxxxxxxxxxxx u32 range xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] |
|----------------------------|----------------------------|
|xxxxxxxxx] [xxxxxxxxxxxx s32 range |
0 S32_MAX S32_MIN -1
- No refinement if ranges overlap in two intervals.
This helps for e.g. consider the following program:
call %[bpf_get_prandom_u32];
w0 &= 0xffffffff;
if w0 < 0x3 goto 1f; // on fall-through u32 range [3..U32_MAX]
if w0 s> 0x1 goto 1f; // on fall-through s32 range [S32_MIN..1]
if w0 s< 0x0 goto 1f; // range can be narrowed to [S32_MIN..-1]
r10 = 0;
1: ...;
The reg_bounds.c selftest is updated to incorporate identical logic,
refinement based on non-overflowing range halves:
((x ∩ [0, smax]) ∩ (y ∩ [0, smax])) ∪
((x ∩ [smin,-1]) ∩ (y ∩ [smin,-1]))

Once a task exits it has its state set to TASK_DEAD and then it is
removed from the cgroup it belonged to. The last step happens on the task
gets out of its last schedule() invocation and is delayed on PREEMPT_RT
due to locking constraints.
As a result it is possible to receive a pid via waitpid() of a task
which is still listed in cgroup.procs for the cgroup it belonged
to. This is something that systemd does not expect and as a result it
waits for its exit until a time out occurs.
This can also be reproduced on !PREEMPT_RT kernel with a significant
delay in do_exit() after exit_notify().
Hide the task from the output which have PF_EXITING set which is done
before the parent is notified. Keeping zombies with live threads
shouldn't break anything (suggested by Tejun).

Multiple events can be enabled on the kernel command line via a comma
separator. But if the are specified one at a time, then only the last
event is enabled. This is because the event names are saved in a temporary

This also affects names in the boot config file, as it may call the
callback multiple times with an example of:
kernel.trace_event = ":mod:rproc_qcom_common", ":mod:qrtr", ":mod:qcom_aoss"

Besides deferring the call to housekeeping_update(), commit 6df415aa46
("cgroup/cpuset: Defer housekeeping_update() calls from CPU hotplug
to workqueue") also defers the rebuild_sched_domains() call to
the workqueue. So a new offline CPU may still be in a sched domain
or new online CPU not showing up in the sched domains for a short
transition period. That could be a problem in some corner cases and
can be the cause of a reported test failure[1]. Fix it by calling
rebuild_sched_domains_cpuslocked() directly in hotplug as before. If
isolated partition invalidation or recreation is being done, the
housekeeping_update() call to update the housekeeping cpumasks will
still be deferred to a workqueue.
In commit 3bfe479671 ("cgroup/cpuset: Move
housekeeping_update()/rebuild_sched_domains() together"),
housekeeping_update() is called before rebuild_sched_domains() because
it needs to access the HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask. That is now
changed to use the static HK_TYPE_DOMAIN_BOOT cpumask as HK_TYPE_DOMAIN
cpumask is now changeable at run time. As a result, we can move the
rebuild_sched_domains() call before housekeeping_update() with
the slight advantage that it will be done in the same cpus_read_lock
critical section without the possibility of interference by a concurrent
cpu hot add/remove operation.
As it doesn't make sense to acquire cpuset_mutex/cpuset_top_mutex after
calling housekeeping_update() and immediately release them again, move
the cpuset_full_unlock() operation inside update_hk_sched_domains()
and rename it to cpuset_update_sd_hk_unlock() to signify that it will
release the full set of locks.

Commit 0927780c90 ("sched_ext: Use READ_ONCE() for lock-free reads
of module param variables") annotated the plain reads of
scx_slice_bypass_us and scx_bypass_lb_intv_us in bypass_lb_cpu(), but
missed a third site in scx_bypass():
WRITE_ONCE(scx_slice_dfl, scx_slice_bypass_us * NSEC_PER_USEC);
scx_slice_bypass_us is a module parameter writable via sysfs in
process context through set_slice_us() -> param_set_uint_minmax(),
which performs a plain store without holding bypass_lock. scx_bypass()
reads the variable under bypass_lock, but since the writer does not
take that lock, the two accesses are concurrent.
WRITE_ONCE() only applies volatile semantics to the store of
scx_slice_dfl -- the val expression containing scx_slice_bypass_us is
evaluated as a plain read, providing no protection against concurrent
writes.
Wrap the read with READ_ONCE() to complete the annotation started by
commit 0927780c90 and make the access KCSAN-clean, consistent with
the existing READ_ONCE(scx_slice_bypass_us) in bypass_lb_cpu().

kthread_exit became a macro to do_exit in commit 28aaa9c399
("kthread: consolidate kthread exit paths to prevent use-after-free"),
so there is no kthread_exit function BTF ID to resolve. Remove it from
noreturn_deny to avoid resolve_btfids unresolved symbol warnings.

show_cpu_pool_hog() only prints workers whose task is currently running
on the CPU (task_is_running()). This misses workers that are busy
processing a work item but are sleeping or blocked — for example, a
worker that clears PF_WQ_WORKER and enters wait_event_idle(). Such a
worker still occupies a pool slot and prevents progress, yet produces
an empty backtrace section in the watchdog output.
This is happening on real arm64 systems, where
toggle_allocation_gate() IPIs every single CPU in the machine (which
lacks NMI), causing workqueue stalls that show empty backtraces because
toggle_allocation_gate() is sleeping in wait_event_idle().
Remove the task_is_running() filter so every in-flight worker in the
pool's busy_hash is dumped. The busy_hash is protected by pool->lock,
which is already held.

When diagnosing workqueue stalls, knowing how long each in-flight work
item has been executing is valuable. Add a current_start timestamp
(jiffies) to struct worker, set it when a work item begins execution in
process_one_work(), and print the elapsed wall-clock time in show_pwq().
Unlike current_at (which tracks CPU runtime and resets on wakeup for
CPU-intensive detection), current_start is never reset because the
diagnostic cares about total wall-clock time including sleeps.

The watchdog_ts name doesn't convey what the timestamp actually tracks.
This field tracks the last time a workqueue got progress.
Rename it to last_progress_ts to make it clear that it records when the
pool last made forward progress (started processing new work items).
No functional change.

pr_cont_worker_id() checks pool->flags against WQ_BH, which is a
workqueue-level flag (defined in workqueue.h). Pool flags use a
separate namespace with POOL_* constants (defined in workqueue.c).
The correct constant is POOL_BH. Both WQ_BH and POOL_BH are defined
as (1 << 0) so this has no behavioral impact, but it is semantically
wrong and inconsistent with every other pool-level BH check in the
file.

The task ownership state machine in sched_ext is quite hard to follow
from the code alone. The interaction of ownership states, memory
ordering rules and cross-CPU "lock dancing" makes the overall model
subtle.
Extend the documentation next to scx_ops_state to provide a more
structured and self-contained description of the state transitions and
their synchronization rules.
The new reference should make the code easier to reason about and
maintain and can help future contributors understand the overall
task-ownership workflow.

bypass_lb_cpu() reads scx_bypass_lb_intv_us and scx_slice_bypass_us
without holding any lock, in timer callback context where module
parameter writes via sysfs can happen concurrently:
min_delta_us = scx_bypass_lb_intv_us / SCX_BYPASS_LB_MIN_DELTA_DIV;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
plain read -- KCSAN data race
if (delta < DIV_ROUND_UP(min_delta_us, scx_slice_bypass_us))
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
plain read -- KCSAN data race
scx_bypass_lb_intv_us already uses READ_ONCE() in scx_bypass_lb_timerfn()
and scx_bypass() for its other lock-free read sites, leaving
bypass_lb_cpu() inconsistent. scx_slice_bypass_us has the same
lock-free access pattern in the same function.
Fix both plain reads by using READ_ONCE() to complete the concurrent
access annotation and make the code KCSAN-clean.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix thresh_return of function graph tracer
The update to store data on the shadow stack removed the abuse of
using the task recursion word as a way to keep track of what
functions to ignore. The trace_graph_return() was updated to handle
this, but when function_graph tracer is using a threshold (only trace
functions that took longer than a specified time), it uses
trace_graph_thresh_return() instead.
This function was still incorrectly using the task struct recursion
word causing the function graph tracer to permanently set all
functions to "notrace"
- Fix thresh_return nosleep accounting
When the calltime was moved to the shadow stack storage instead of
being on the fgraph descriptor, the calculations for the amount of
sleep time was updated. The calculation was done in the
trace_graph_thresh_return() function, which also called the
trace_graph_return(), which did the calculation again, causing the
time to be doubled.
Remove the call to trace_graph_return() as what it needed to do
wasn't that much, and just do the work in
trace_graph_thresh_return().
- Fix syscall trace event activation on boot up
The syscall trace events are pseudo events attached to the
raw_syscall tracepoints. When the first syscall event is enabled, it
enables the raw_syscall tracepoint and doesn't need to do anything
when a second syscall event is also enabled.
When events are enabled via the kernel command line, syscall events
are partially enabled as the enabling is called before rcu_init. This
is due to allow early events to be enabled immediately. Because
kernel command line events do not distinguish between different types
of events, the syscall events are enabled here but are not fully
functioning. After rcu_init, they are disabled and re-enabled so that
they can be fully enabled.
The problem happened is that this "disable-enable" is done one at a
time. If more than one syscall event is specified on the command
line, by disabling them one at a time, the counter never gets to
zero, and the raw_syscall is not disabled and enabled, keeping the
syscall events in their non-fully functional state.
Instead, disable all events and re-enabled them all, as that will
ensure the raw_syscall event is also disabled and re-enabled.
- Disable preemption in ftrace pid filtering
The ftrace pid filtering attaches to the fork and exit tracepoints to
add or remove pids that should be traced. They access variables
protected by RCU (preemption disabled). Now that tracepoint callbacks
are called with preemption enabled, this protection needs to be added
explicitly, and not depend on the functions being called with
preemption disabled.
- Disable preemption in event pid filtering
The event pid filtering needs the same preemption disabling guards as
ftrace pid filtering.
- Fix accounting of the memory mapped ring buffer on fork
Memory mapping the ftrace ring buffer sets the vm_flags to DONTCOPY.
But this does not prevent the application from calling
madvise(MADVISE_DOFORK). This causes the mapping to be copied on
fork. After the first tasks exits, the mapping is considered unmapped
by everyone. But when he second task exits, the counter goes below
zero and triggers a WARN_ON.
Since nothing prevents two separate tasks from mmapping the ftrace
ring buffer (although two mappings may mess each other up), there's
no reason to stop the memory from being copied on fork.
Update the vm_operations to have an ".open" handler to update the
accounting and let the ring buffer know someone else has it mapped.
- Add all ftrace headers in MAINTAINERS file
The MAINTAINERS file only specifies include/linux/ftrace.h But misses
ftrace_irq.h and ftrace_regs.h. Make the file use wildcards to get
all *ftrace* files.

Pull module fixes from Sami Tolvanen:
- Fix a potential kernel panic in the module loader by adding a bounds
check for the ELF section index. This prevents crashes if attempting
to load a module that uses SHN_XINDEX or is corrupted.
- Fix the Kconfig menu layout for module versioning, signing, and
compression options so they correctly appear as submenus in
menuconfig.
- Remove a redundant lockdep_free_key_range() call in the load_module()
error path. This is already handled by module_deallocate() calling
free_mod_mem() since the module_memory rework.

The timekeeping_validate_timex() function validates the timex status
of an auxiliary system clock even when the status is not to be changed,
which causes unexpected errors for applications that make read-only
clock_adjtime() calls, or set some other timex fields, but without
clearing the status field.
Do the AUX-specific status validation only when the modes field contains
ADJ_STATUS, i.e. the application is actually trying to change the
status. This makes the AUX-specific clock_adjtime() behavior consistent
with CLOCK_REALTIME.

bpf_iter_scx_dsq_new() reads dsq->seq via READ_ONCE() without holding
any lock, making dsq->seq a lock-free concurrently accessed variable.
However, dispatch_enqueue(), the sole writer of dsq->seq, uses a plain
increment without the matching WRITE_ONCE() on the write side:
dsq->seq++;
^^^^^^^^^^^
plain write -- KCSAN data race
The KCSAN documentation requires that if one accessor uses READ_ONCE()
or WRITE_ONCE() on a variable to annotate lock-free access, all other
accesses must also use the appropriate accessor. A plain write leaves
the pair incomplete and will trigger KCSAN warnings.
Fix by using WRITE_ONCE() for the write side of the update:
WRITE_ONCE(dsq->seq, dsq->seq + 1);
This is consistent with bpf_iter_scx_dsq_new() and makes the
concurrent access annotation complete and KCSAN-clean.

The problem is that when a SCHED_DEADLINE task (lock holder) is
changed to a lower priority class via sched_setscheduler(), it may
fail to properly inherit the parameters of potential DEADLINE donors
if it didn't already inherit them in the past (shorter deadline than
donor's at that time). This might lead to bandwidth accounting
corruption, as enqueue_task_dl() won't recognize the lock holder as
boosted.
The scenario occurs when:
1. A DEADLINE task (donor) blocks on a PI mutex held by another
DEADLINE task (holder), but the holder doesn't inherit parameters
(e.g., it already has a shorter deadline)
2. sched_setscheduler() changes the holder from DEADLINE to a lower
class while still holding the mutex
3. The holder should now inherit DEADLINE parameters from the donor
and be enqueued with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH, but this doesn't happen
Fix the issue by introducing __setscheduler_dl_pi(), which detects when
a DEADLINE (proper or boosted) task gets setscheduled to a lower
priority class. In case, the function makes the task inherit DEADLINE
parameters of the donoer (pi_se) and sets ENQUEUE_REPLENISH flag to
ensure proper bandwidth accounting during the next enqueue operation.

Commit 2dc164a48e ("sysctl: Create converter functions with two new

converter is used. The old overflow check got replaced with an
unconditional one:

which will always be true on configurations with "USER_HZ < HZ".
Remove the check; it is no longer needed as clock_t_to_jiffies() returns

"> INT_MAX" after conversion

When function trace PID filtering is enabled, the function tracer will
attach a callback to the fork tracepoint as well as the exit tracepoint
that will add the forked child PID to the PID filtering list as well as
remove the PID that is exiting.
Commit a46023d561 ("tracing: Guard __DECLARE_TRACE() use of
__DO_TRACE_CALL() with SRCU-fast") removed the disabling of preemption
when calling tracepoint callbacks.
The callbacks used for the PID filtering accounting depended on preemption
being disabled, and now the trigger a "suspicious RCU usage" warning message.
Make them explicitly disable preemption.
