[ Upstream commit 6a5a148aaf14747570cc634f9cdfcb0393f5617f ]

bpf_probe_read_kernel() has a __weak definition in core.c and another
definition with an incompatible prototype in kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c,
when CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS is enabled.

Since the two are incompatible, there cannot be a shared declaration in
a header file, but the lack of a prototype causes a W=1 warning:

kernel/bpf/core.c:1638:12: error: no previous prototype for 'bpf_probe_read_kernel' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]

On 32-bit architectures, the local prototype

u64 __weak bpf_probe_read_kernel(void *dst, u32 size, const void *unsafe_ptr)

passes arguments in other registers as the one in bpf_trace.c

BPF_CALL_3(bpf_probe_read_kernel, void *, dst, u32, size,
            const void *, unsafe_ptr)

which uses 64-bit arguments in pairs of registers.

As both versions of the function are fairly simple and only really
differ in one line, just move them into a header file as an inline
function that does not add any overhead for the bpf_trace.c callers
and actually avoids a function call for the other one.

commit 08700ec705043eb0cee01b35cf5b9d63f0230d12 upstream.

John David Anglin reported parisc has been broken since commit
ddb5cdbafaaa ("kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost").

Like ia64, parisc64 uses a function descriptor. The function
references must be prefixed with P%.

Also, symbols prefixed $$ from the library have the symbol type
STT_LOPROC instead of STT_FUNC. They should be handled as functions
too.

<title>net: phy: Provide Module 4 KSZ9477 errata (DS80000754C)</title>

[ Upstream commit 08c6d8bae48c2c28f7017d7b61b5d5a1518ceb39 ]

The KSZ9477 errata points out (in 'Module 4') the link up/down problems
when EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is enabled in the device to which
the KSZ9477 tries to auto negotiate.

The suggested workaround is to clear advertisement of EEE for PHYs in
this chip driver.

To avoid regressions with other switch ICs the new MICREL_NO_EEE flag
has been introduced.

Moreover, the in-register disablement of MMD_DEVICE_ID_EEE_ADV.MMD_EEE_ADV
MMD register is removed, as this code is both; now executed too late
(after previous rework of the PHY and DSA for KSZ switches) and not
required as setting all members of eee_broken_modes bit field prevents
the KSZ9477 from advertising EEE.

[ Upstream commit 719c5e37e99d2fd588d1c994284d17650a66354c ]

Previously, the defines for phy_device flags in the Micrel driver were
ambiguous in their representation. They were intended to be bit masks
but were mistakenly defined as bit positions. This led to the following
issues:

- MICREL_KSZ8_P1_ERRATA, designated for KSZ88xx switches, overlapped
  with MICREL_PHY_FXEN and MICREL_PHY_50MHZ_CLK.
- Due to this overlap, the code path for MICREL_PHY_FXEN, tailored for
  the KSZ8041 PHY, was not executed for KSZ88xx PHYs.
- Similarly, the code associated with MICREL_PHY_50MHZ_CLK wasn't
  triggered for KSZ88xx.

To rectify this, all three flags have now been explicitly converted to
use the `BIT()` macro, ensuring they are defined as bit masks and
preventing potential overlaps in the future.

[ Upstream commit 8423be8926aa82cd2e28bba5cc96ccb72c7ce6be ]

Route hints when the nexthop is part of a multipath group causes packets
in the same receive batch to be sent to the same nexthop irrespective of
the multipath hash of the packet. So, do not extract route hint for
packets whose destination is part of a multipath group.

A new SKB flag IP6SKB_MULTIPATH is introduced for this purpose, set the
flag when route is looked up in fib6_select_path() and use it in
ip6_can_use_hint() to check for the existence of the flag.

[ Upstream commit 7e9be1124dbe7888907e82cab20164578e3f9ab7 ]

Since set element reset is not integrated into nf_tables' transaction
logic, an explicit log call is needed, similar to NFT_MSG_GETOBJ_RESET
handling.

For the sake of simplicity, catchall element reset will always generate
a dedicated log entry. This relieves nf_tables_dump_set() from having to

[ Upstream commit 7e9be1124dbe7888907e82cab20164578e3f9ab7 ]

Since set element reset is not integrated into nf_tables' transaction
logic, an explicit log call is needed, similar to NFT_MSG_GETOBJ_RESET
handling.

For the sake of simplicity, catchall element reset will always generate
a dedicated log entry. This relieves nf_tables_dump_set() from having to
adjust the logged element count depending on whether a catchall element
was found or not.

Remove option having i2c client contain raw gpio number instead of proper
IRQ number. There are no users of this facility in mainline and it will
allow cleaning up the driver code with regard to wakeup handling, etc.

[ Upstream commit 9876cfe8ec1cb3c88de31f4d58d57b0e7e22bcc4 ]

This sysctl has the very unusual behaviour of not allowing any user (even
CAP_SYS_ADMIN) to reduce the restriction setting, meaning that if you were
to set this sysctl to a more restrictive option in the host pidns you
would need to reboot your machine in order to reset it.

The justification given in [1] is that this is a security feature and thus
it should not be possible to disable.  Aside from the fact that we have
plenty of security-related sysctls that can be disabled after being
enabled (fs.protected_symlinks for instance), the protection provided by
the sysctl is to stop users from being able to create a binary and then
execute it.  A user with CAP_SYS_ADMIN can trivially do this without
memfd_create(2):

  % cat mount-memfd.c
  #include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;string.h&gt;
  #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
  #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
  #include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/mount.h&gt;

  #define SHELLCODE "#!/bin/echo this file was executed from this totally private tmpfs:"

  int main(void)
  {
  	int fsfd = fsopen("tmpfs", FSOPEN_CLOEXEC);
  	assert(fsfd &gt;= 0);
  	assert(!fsconfig(fsfd, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 2));

  	int dfd = fsmount(fsfd, FSMOUNT_CLOEXEC, 0);
  	assert(dfd &gt;= 0);

  	int execfd = openat(dfd, "exe", O_CREAT | O_RDWR | O_CLOEXEC, 0782);
  	assert(execfd &gt;= 0);
  	assert(write(execfd, SHELLCODE, strlen(SHELLCODE)) == strlen(SHELLCODE));
  	assert(!close(execfd));

  	char *execpath = NULL;
  	char *argv[] = { "bad-exe", NULL }, *envp[] = { NULL };
  	execfd = openat(dfd, "exe", O_PATH | O_CLOEXEC);
  	assert(execfd &gt;= 0);
  	assert(asprintf(&amp;execpath, "/proc/self/fd/%d", execfd) &gt; 0);
  	assert(!execve(execpath, argv, envp));
  }
  % ./mount-memfd
  this file was executed from this totally private tmpfs: /proc/self/fd/5
  %

Given that it is possible for CAP_SYS_ADMIN users to create executable
binaries without memfd_create(2) and without touching the host filesystem
(not to mention the many other things a CAP_SYS_ADMIN process would be
able to do that would be equivalent or worse), it seems strange to cause a
fair amount of headache to admins when there doesn't appear to be an
actual security benefit to blocking this.  There appear to be concerns
about confused-deputy-esque attacks[2] but a confused deputy that can
write to arbitrary sysctls is a bigger security issue than executable
memfds.

/* New API */

The primary requirement from the original author appears to be more based
on the need to be able to restrict an entire system in a hierarchical
manner[3], such that child namespaces cannot re-enable executable memfds.

So, implement that behaviour explicitly -- the vm.memfd_noexec scope is
evaluated up the pidns tree to &amp;init_pid_ns and you have the most
restrictive value applied to you.  The new lower limit you can set
vm.memfd_noexec is whatever limit applies to your parent.

Note that a pidns will inherit a copy of the parent pidns's effective
vm.memfd_noexec setting at unshare() time.  This matches the existing
behaviour, and it also ensures that a pidns will never have its
vm.memfd_noexec setting *lowered* behind its back (but it will be raised
if the parent raises theirs).

/* Backwards Compatibility */

As the previous version of the sysctl didn't allow you to lower the
setting at all, there are no backwards compatibility issues with this
aspect of the change.

However it should be noted that now that the setting is completely
hierarchical.  Previously, a cloned pidns would just copy the current
pidns setting, meaning that if the parent's vm.memfd_noexec was changed it
wouldn't propoagate to existing pid namespaces.  Now, the restriction
applies recursively.  This is a uAPI change, however:

 * The sysctl is very new, having been merged in 6.3.
 * Several aspects of the sysctl were broken up until this patchset and
   the other patchset by Jeff Xu last month.

And thus it seems incredibly unlikely that any real users would run into
this issue. In the worst case, if this causes userspace isues we could
make it so that modifying the setting follows the hierarchical rules but
the restriction checking uses the cached copy.
