The verification signature header generation requires converting a
binary certificate to a C array. Previously this only worked with xxd,
and a switch to hexdump has been done in commit b640d556a2
("selftests/bpf: Remove xxd util dependency").
hexdump is a more common utility program, yet it might not be installed
by default. When it is not installed, BPF selftests build without
errors, but tests_progs is unusable: it exits with the 255 code and
without any error messages. When manually reproducing the issue, it is
not too hard to find out that the generated verification_cert.h file is
incorrect, but that's time consuming. When digging the BPF selftests
build logs, this line can be seen amongst thousands others, but ignored:
/bin/sh: 2: hexdump: not found
Here, od is used instead of hexdump. od is coming from the coreutils
package, and this new od command produces the same output when using od
from GNU coreutils, uutils, and even busybox. This is more portable, and
it produces a similar results to what was done before with hexdump:
there is an extra comma at the end instead of trailing whitespaces,
but the C code is not impacted.

Since we started running selftests in NIPA we have been seeing
tc_actions.sh generate a soft lockup warning on ~20% of the runs.
On the pre-netdev foundation setup it was actually a missed irq
splat from the console. Now it's either that or a lockup.
I initially suspected a socket locking issue since the test
is exercising local loopback with act_mirred.
After hours of staring at this I noticed in strace that ncat
when -o $file is specified _both_ saves the output to the file
and still prints it to stdout. Because the file being sent
is constructed with:
dd conv=sparse status=none if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=2 of=$mirred
^^^^^^^^^
the data printed is all \0. Most terminals don't display nul
characters (and neither does vng output capture save them).
But QEMU's serial console still has to poke them thru which
is very slow and causes the lockup (if the file is >600kB).
Replace the '-o $file' with '> $file'. This speeds the test up
from 2m20s to 18s on debug kernels, and prevents the warnings.

Commit 728ff16791 ("libbpf: Add gating for arena globals relocation feature")
adds a feature gate check that loads a map and BPF program to
test the running kernel supports large direct offsets for LDIMM64
instructions. This check is currently used to calculate arena symbol
offsets during bpf_object__collect_relos, itself called by
bpf_object_open.
However, the program calling bpf_object_open may not have the permissions to
load maps and programs. This is the case with the BPF selftests, where
bpftool is invoked at compilation time during skeleton generation. This
causes errors as the feature gate unexpectedly fails with -EPERM.
Avoid this by moving all the use of the FEAT_LDIMM64_FULL_RANGE_OFF feature gate
to BPF object preparation time instead.

Commit 728ff16791 uses a PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT BPF test program to
check whether the running kernel supports large LDIMM64 offsets. The
feature gate incorrectly assumes that the program will fail at
verification time with one of two messages, depending on whether the
feature is supported by the running kernel. However,
PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT programs may fail to load before verification even
starts, e.g., if the shell does not have the appropriate capabilities.
Use a BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER program for the feature gate instead.
Also fix two minor issues. First, ensure the log buffer for the test is
initialized: Failing program load before verification led to libbpf dumping
uninitialized data to stdout. Also, ensure that close() is only called
for program_fd in the probe if the program load actually succeeded. The
call was currently failing silently with -EBADF most of the time.

The tests use the tc pedit action to modify the IPv4 source address
("pedit ex munge ip src set"), but the IP header checksum is not
recalculated after the modification. As a result, the modified packet
fails sanity checks in br_netfilter after bridging and is dropped,
which causes the test to fail.
Fix this by ensuring net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables is set to 0
during the test execution. This prevents the bridge from passing
L2 traffic to netfilter, bypassing the checksum validation that
causes the test failure.

fcg_read_stats() had a VLA allocating 21 * nr_cpus * 8 bytes on the
stack, risking stack overflow on large CPU counts (nr_cpus can be up
to 512).
Fix by using a single heap allocation with the correct size, reusing
it across all stat indices, and freeing it at the end.

Commit c27cea4416 ("rcu: Re-implement RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU-fast")
broke map_kptr selftest since it removed the function we were kprobing.
Use a new kfunc that invokes call_rcu_tasks_trace and sets a program
provided pointer to an integer to 1. Technically this can be unsafe if
the memory being written to from the callback disappears, but this is
just for usage in a test where we ensure we spin until we see the value
to be set to 1, so it's ok.

Add feature gating for the arena globals relocation introduced in
commit c1f61171d4. The commit depends on a previous commit in the
same patchset that is absent from older kernels
(12a1fe6e12 "bpf/verifier: Do not limit maximum direct offset into arena map").
Without this commit, arena globals relocation with arenas >= 512MiB
fails to load and breaks libbpf's backwards compatibility.
Introduce a libbpf feature to check whether the running kernel allows for
full range ldimm64 offset, and only relocate arena globals if it does.

Turbostat collects statistics and outputs results in "topology order",
which means it prioritizes the core# over the cpu#.
The strategy is to minimize wakesups to a core -- which is
important when measuring an idle system.
But core order is problematic, because Linux core#'s are physical
(within each package), and thus subject to APIC-id scrambling
that may be done by the hardware or the BIOS.
As a result users may be are faced with rows in a confusing order:
sudo turbostat -q --show topology,Busy%,CPU%c6,UncMHz sleep 1
Core CPU Busy% CPU%c6 UncMHz
- - 1.25 72.18 3400
0 4 7.74 0.00
1 5 1.77 88.59
2 6 0.48 96.73
3 7 0.21 98.34

5 9 0.26 97.55
6 10 0.44 97.24

12 3 0.08
32 12 0.04 99.21
33 13 0.25 94.92
Abandon the legacy "core# topology order" in favor of simply
ordering by cpu#, with a special case to handle HT siblings
that may not have adjacent cpu#'s.
sudo ./turbostat -q --show topology,Busy%,CPU%c6,UncMHz sleep 1
1.003001 sec
Core CPU Busy% CPU%c6 UncMHz
- - 1.38 80.55 1600

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Loongarch:
- Add more CPUCFG mask bits
- Improve feature detection
- Add lazy load support for FPU and binary translation (LBT) register
state
- Fix return value for memory reads from and writes to in-kernel
devices
- Add support for detecting preemption from within a guest
- Add KVM steal time test case to tools/selftests
ARM:
- Add support for FEAT_IDST, allowing ID registers that are not
implemented to be reported as a normal trap rather than as an UNDEF
exception
- Add sanitisation of the VTCR_EL2 register, fixing a number of
UXN/PXN/XN bugs in the process
- Full handling of RESx bits, instead of only RES0, and resulting in
SCTLR_EL2 being added to the list of sanitised registers
- More pKVM fixes for features that are not supposed to be exposed to
guests
- Make sure that MTE being disabled on the pKVM host doesn't give it
the ability to attack the hypervisor
- Allow pKVM's host stage-2 mappings to use the Force Write Back
version of the memory attributes by using the "pass-through'
encoding
- Fix trapping of ICC_DIR_EL1 on GICv5 hosts emulating GICv3 for the
guest
- Preliminary work for guest GICv5 support
- A bunch of debugfs fixes, removing pointless custom iterators
stored in guest data structures
- A small set of FPSIMD cleanups
- Selftest fixes addressing the incorrect alignment of page
allocation
- Other assorted low-impact fixes and spelling fixes
RISC-V:
- Fixes for issues discoverd by KVM API fuzzing in
kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_has_attr(), kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_rw_attr(), and
kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_update()
- Allow Zalasr, Zilsd and Zclsd extensions for Guest/VM
- Transparent huge page support for hypervisor page tables
- Adjust the number of available guest irq files based on MMIO
register sizes found in the device tree or the ACPI tables
- Add RISC-V specific paging modes to KVM selftests
- Detect paging mode at runtime for selftests
s390:
- Performance improvement for vSIE (aka nested virtualization)
- Completely new memory management. s390 was a special snowflake that
enlisted help from the architecture's page table management to
build hypervisor page tables, in particular enabling sharing the
last level of page tables. This however was a lot of code (~3K
lines) in order to support KVM, and also blocked several features.
The biggest advantages is that the page size of userspace is
completely independent of the page size used by the guest:
userspace can mix normal pages, THPs and hugetlbfs as it sees fit,
and in fact transparent hugepages were not possible before. It's
also now possible to have nested guests and guests with huge pages
running on the same host
- Maintainership change for s390 vfio-pci
- Small quality of life improvement for protected guests
x86:
- Add support for giving the guest full ownership of PMU hardware
(contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allowing
direct access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model).
KVM still intercepts access to control registers, e.g. to enforce
event filtering and to prevent the guest from profiling sensitive
host state. This is more accurate, since it has no risk of
contention and thus dropped events, and also has significantly less
overhead.
For more information, see the commit message for merge commit
bf2c3138ae ("Merge tag 'kvm-x86-pmu-6.20' ...")
- Disallow changing the virtual CPU model if L2 is active, for all
the same reasons KVM disallows change the model after the first
KVM_RUN
- Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly reject host accesses to PV
MSRs when running with KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID enabled,
even if those were advertised as supported to userspace,
- Fix a bug with protected guest state (SEV-ES/SNP and TDX) VMs,
where KVM would attempt to read CR3 configuring an async #PF entry
- Fail the build if EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL or EXPORT_SYMBOL is used in KVM
(for x86 only) to enforce usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_KVM_INTERNAL.
Only a few exports that are intended for external usage, and those
are allowed explicitly
- When checking nested events after a vCPU is unblocked, ignore
-EBUSY instead of WARNing. Userspace can sometimes put the vCPU
into what should be an impossible state, and spurious exit to
userspace on -EBUSY does not really do anything to solve the issue
- Also throw in the towel and drop the WARN on INIT/SIPI being
blocked when vCPU is in Wait-For-SIPI, which also resulted in
playing whack-a-mole with syzkaller stuffing architecturally
impossible states into KVM
- Add support for new Intel instructions that don't require anything
beyond enumerating feature flags to userspace
- Grab SRCU when reading PDPTRs in KVM_GET_SREGS2
- Add WARNs to guard against modifying KVM's CPU caps outside of the
intended setup flow, as nested VMX in particular is sensitive to
unexpected changes in KVM's golden configuration
- Add a quirk to allow userspace to opt-in to actually suppress EOI
broadcasts when the suppression feature is enabled by the guest
(currently limited to split IRQCHIP, i.e. userspace I/O APIC).
Sadly, simply fixing KVM to honor Suppress EOI Broadcasts isn't an
option as some userspaces have come to rely on KVM's buggy behavior
(KVM advertises Supress EOI Broadcast irrespective of whether or
not userspace I/O APIC supports Directed EOIs)
- Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty
- Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's
unused ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered
by the guest and/or user, and all of which were useless
- Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to
make it more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to
allow fropping these RTC shenanigans if CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=n
- Bury all of ioapic.h, i8254.h and related ioctls (including
KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP) behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y
- Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes
- Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in
kvm_apic_update_apicv() to consolidate the updates, and to
co-locate SVI updates with the updates for KVM's own cache of ISR
information
- Drop a dead function declaration
- Minor cleanups
x86 (Intel):
- Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to
temporarily switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until
the next nested VM-Exit.
The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several bugs,
was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
"struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans
- Fix an SGX bug where KVM would incorrectly try to handle EPCM page
faults, and instead always reflect them into the guest. Since KVM
doesn't shadow EPCM entries, EPCM violations cannot be due to KVM
interference and can't be resolved by KVM
- Fix a bug where KVM would register its posted interrupt wakeup
handler even if loading kvm-intel.ko ultimately failed
- Disallow access to vmcb12 fields that aren't fully supported,
mostly to avoid weirdness and complexity for FRED and other
features, where KVM wants enable VMCS shadowing for fields that
conditionally exist
- Print out the "bad" offsets and values if kvm-intel.ko refuses to
load (or refuses to online a CPU) due to a VMCS config mismatch
x86 (AMD):
- Drop a user-triggerable WARN on nested_svm_load_cr3() failure
- Add support for virtualizing ERAPS. Note, correct virtualization of
ERAPS relies on an upcoming, publicly announced change in the APM
to reduce the set of conditions where hardware (i.e. KVM) *must*
flush the RAP
- Ignore nSVM intercepts for instructions that are not supported
according to L1's virtual CPU model
- Add support for expedited writes to the fast MMIO bus, a la VMX's
fastpath for EPT Misconfig
- Don't set GIF when clearing EFER.SVME, as GIF exists independently
of SVM, and allow userspace to restore nested state with GIF=0
- Treat exit_code as an unsigned 64-bit value through all of KVM
- Add support for fetching SNP certificates from userspace
- Fix a bug where KVM would use vmcb02 instead of vmcb01 when
emulating VMLOAD or VMSAVE on behalf of L2
- Misc fixes and cleanups
x86 selftests:
- Add a regression test for TPR<=>CR8 synchronization and IRQ masking
- Overhaul selftest's MMU infrastructure to genericize stage-2 MMU
support, and extend x86's infrastructure to support EPT and NPT
(for L2 guests)
- Extend several nested VMX tests to also cover nested SVM
- Add a selftest for nested VMLOAD/VMSAVE
- Rework the nested dirty log test, originally added as a regression
test for PML where KVM logged L2 GPAs instead of L1 GPAs, to
improve test coverage and to hopefully make the test easier to
understand and maintain
guest_memfd:
- Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked
hugepage handling. SEV/SNP was the only user of the tracking and it
can do it via the RMP
- Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that
KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE and KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION require the
source page to be 4KiB aligned, to avoid non-trivial complexity for
something that no known VMM seems to be doing and to avoid an API
special case for in-place conversion, which simply can't support
unaligned sources
- When populating guest_memfd memory, GUP the source page in common
code and pass the refcounted page to the vendor callback, instead
of letting vendor code do the heavy lifting. Doing so avoids a
looming deadlock bug with in-place due an AB-BA conflict betwee
mmap_lock and guest_memfd's filemap invalidate lock
Generic:
- Fix a bug where KVM would ignore the vCPU's selected address space
when creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory. Actually
this bug could not be hit even on x86, the only architecture with
multiple address spaces, but it's a bug nevertheless"

The rt_stall test measures the runtime ratio between an EXT and an RT
task pinned to the same CPU, verifying that the deadline server prevents
RT tasks from starving SCHED_EXT tasks. It expects the EXT task to get
at least 4% of CPU time.
The test is flaky because sched_stress_test() calls sleep(RUN_TIME)
immediately after fork(), without waiting for the RT child to complete
its setup (set_affinity + set_sched). If the RT child experiences
scheduling latency before completing setup, that delay eats into the
measurement window: the RT child runs for less than RUN_TIME seconds,
and the EXT task's measured ratio drops below the 4% threshold.
For example, in the failing CI run [1]:
EXT=0.140s RT=4.750s total=4.890s (expected ~5.0s)
ratio=2.86% < 4% → FAIL
The 110ms gap (5.0 - 4.89) corresponds to the RT child's setup time
being counted inside the measurement window, during which fewer
deadline server ticks fire for the EXT task.
Fix by using pipes to synchronize: each child signals the parent after
completing its setup, and the parent waits for both signals before
starting sleep(RUN_TIME). This ensures the measurement window only
counts time when both tasks are fully configured and competing.
