can: use skb hash instead of private variable in headroom

2026-08-27T12:27:36+00:00

commit d4fb6514ff8ed6912a71294e6b66a5d59ee88007 upstream.

The can_skb_priv::skbcnt variable is used to identify CAN skbs in the RX
path analogue to the skb->hash.

As the skb hash is not filled in CAN skbs move the private skbcnt value to
skb->hash and set skb->sw_hash accordingly. The skb->hash is a value used
for RPS to identify skbs. Use it as intended.

packet: use consistent hard_header_len in non-ring send paths

2026-08-27T12:27:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit 03390aa32e669cc4ecd7d34108e2e1afc13d689d ]

packet_snd() reads dev->hard_header_len multiple times while allocating
and constructing an skb. Device reconfiguration can change this value
concurrently, for example through bonding device type changes.

For SOCK_RAW, packet_snd() can save a larger value in reserve and later
allocate headroom using a smaller value. Moving skb->data back by reserve
then places it before skb->head, and the following copy from userspace can
attempt an out-of-bounds write.

packet_sendmsg_spkt() has the same issue because it calculates its
reservation and header offset from separate reads before dropping the RCU
read lock to allocate the skb.

Add LL_RESERVED_SPACE_EX() for callers that already saved a header length.
Read hard_header_len once in packet_snd() and use it for allocation and
construction. In packet_sendmsg_spkt(), preserve the allocation-time value
through the device lookup retry.

The separate SOCK_DGRAM consistency problem between hard_header_len and
header_ops->create is not addressed here.

fs: don't block write during exec on pre-content watched files

2026-08-23T12:16:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0357ef03c94ef835bd44a0658b8edb672a9dbf51 ]

Commit 2a010c412853 ("fs: don't block i_writecount during exec") removed
the legacy behavior of getting ETXTBSY on attempt to open and executable
file for write while it is being executed.

This commit was reverted because an application that depends on this
legacy behavior was broken by the change.

We need to allow HSM writing into executable files while executed to
fill their content on-the-fly.

To that end, disable the ETXTBSY legacy behavior for files that are
watched by pre-content events.

This change is not expected to cause regressions with existing systems
which do not have any pre-content event listeners.

fsnotify: opt-in for permission events at file open time

2026-08-23T12:16:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit a94204f4d48e28a711b7ed10399f749286c433e3 ]

Legacy inotify/fanotify listeners can add watches for events on inode,
parent or mount and expect to get events (e.g. FS_MODIFY) on files that
were already open at the time of setting up the watches.

fanotify permission events are typically used by Anti-malware sofware,
that is watching the entire mount and it is not common to have more that
one Anti-malware engine installed on a system.

To reduce the overhead of the fsnotify_file_perm() hooks on every file
access, relax the semantics of the legacy FAN_ACCESS_PERM event to generate
events only if there were *any* permission event listeners on the
filesystem at the time that the file was opened.

The new semantic is implemented by extending the FMODE_NONOTIFY bit into
two FMODE_NONOTIFY_* bits, that are used to store a mode for which of the
events types to report.

This is going to apply to the new fanotify pre-content events in order
to reduce the cost of the new pre-content event vfs hooks.

[Thanks to Bert Karwatzki  for reporting a bug in this
code with CONFIG_FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS disabled]

skbuff: introduce skb_pull_data

2026-08-23T12:16:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit 13244cccc2b61ec715f0ac583d3037497004d4a5 ]

Like skb_pull but returns the original data pointer before pulling the
data after performing a check against sbk->len.

This allows to change code that does "struct foo *p = (void *)skb->data;"
which is hard to audit and error prone, to:

        p = skb_pull_data(skb, sizeof(*p));
        if (!p)
                return;

Which is both safer and cleaner.

KVM: Introduce vcpu->wants_to_run

2026-08-23T12:16:24+00:00

[ Upstream commit a6816314af5749cd88944bfdceb270c627cdf348 ]

Introduce vcpu->wants_to_run to indicate when a vCPU is in its core run
loop, i.e. when the vCPU is running the KVM_RUN ioctl and immediate_exit
was not set.

Replace all references to vcpu->run->immediate_exit with
!vcpu->wants_to_run to avoid TOCTOU races with userspace. For example, a
malicious userspace could invoked KVM_RUN with immediate_exit=true and
then after KVM reads it to set wants_to_run=false, flip it to false.
This would result in the vCPU running in KVM_RUN with
wants_to_run=false. This wouldn't cause any real bugs today but is a
dangerous landmine.

bootconfig: move xbc_snprint_cmdline() to lib/bootconfig.c

Move xbc_snprint_cmdline() from init/main.c to lib/bootconfig.c so the
function (and its xbc_namebuf scratch buffer) becomes part of the shared
parser library. tools/bootconfig already compiles lib/bootconfig.c
directly, which lets a follow-up patch reuse the same renderer in the
userspace tool to convert a bootconfig file into a flat cmdline string
at build time.

No functional change.

			fw_name, error);

	error = use_firmware(instance, fw);

		return error;

	return 0;
