ptrace: slightly saner 'get_dumpable()' logic

2026-05-15T12:51:08+00:00

commit 31e62c2ebbfdc3fe3dbdf5e02c92a9dc67087a3a upstream.

The 'dumpability' of a task is fundamentally about the memory image of
the task - the concept comes from whether it can core dump or not - and
makes no sense when you don't have an associated mm.

And almost all users do in fact use it only for the case where the task
has a mm pointer.

But we have one odd special case: ptrace_may_access() uses 'dumpable' to
check various other things entirely independently of the MM (typically
explicitly using flags like PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS).  Including for
threads that no longer have a VM (and maybe never did, like most kernel
threads).

It's not what this flag was designed for, but it is what it is.

The ptrace code does check that the uid/gid matches, so you do have to
be uid-0 to see kernel thread details, but this means that the
traditional "drop capabilities" model doesn't make any difference for
this all.

Make it all make a *bit* more sense by saying that if you don't have a
MM pointer, we'll use a cached "last dumpability" flag if the thread
ever had a MM (it will be zero for kernel threads since it is never
set), and require a proper CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability to override.

printk: add print_hex_dump_devel()

[ Upstream commit d134feeb5df33fbf77f482f52a366a44642dba09 ]

Add print_hex_dump_devel() as the hex dump equivalent of pr_devel(),
which emits output only when DEBUG is enabled, but keeps call sites
compiled otherwise.

mmc: core: Optimize time for secure erase/trim for some Kingston eMMCs

2026-05-14T13:29:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit d6bf2e64dec87322f2b11565ddb59c0e967f96e3 ]

Kingston eMMC IY2964 and IB2932 takes a fixed ~2 seconds for each secure
erase/trim operation regardless of size - that is, a single secure
erase/trim operation of 1MB takes the same time as 1GB. With default
calculated 3.5MB max discard size, secure erase 1GB requires ~300 separate
operations taking ~10 minutes total.

Add a card quirk, MMC_QUIRK_FIXED_SECURE_ERASE_TRIM_TIME, to set maximum
secure erase size for those devices. This allows 1GB secure erase to
complete in a single operation, reducing time from 10 minutes to just 2
seconds.

dma-mapping: add __dma_from_device_group_begin()/end()

2026-05-14T13:29:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit ca085faabb42c31ee204235facc5a430cb9e78a9 ]

When a structure contains a buffer that DMA writes to alongside fields
that the CPU writes to, cache line sharing between the DMA buffer and
CPU-written fields can cause data corruption on non-cache-coherent
platforms.

Add __dma_from_device_group_begin()/end() annotations to ensure proper
alignment to prevent this:

struct my_device {
	spinlock_t lock1;
	__dma_from_device_group_begin();
	char dma_buffer1[16];
	char dma_buffer2[16];
	__dma_from_device_group_end();
	spinlock_t lock2;
};

fbdev: defio: Disconnect deferred I/O from the lifetime of struct fb_info

2026-05-14T13:29:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9ded47ad003f09a94b6a710b5c47f4aa5ceb7429 ]

Hold state of deferred I/O in struct fb_deferred_io_state. Allocate an
instance as part of initializing deferred I/O and remove it only after
the final mapping has been closed. If the fb_info and the contained
deferred I/O meanwhile goes away, clear struct fb_deferred_io_state.info
to invalidate the mapping. Any access will then result in a SIGBUS
signal.

Fixes a long-standing problem, where a device hot-unplug happens while
user space still has an active mapping of the graphics memory. The hot-
unplug frees the instance of struct fb_info. Accessing the memory will
operate on undefined state.

rxrpc: Fix conn-level packet handling to unshare RESPONSE packets

2026-05-14T13:29:18+00:00

commit 24481a7f573305706054c59e275371f8d0fe919f upstream.

The security operations that verify the RESPONSE packets decrypt bits of it
in place - however, the sk_buff may be shared with a packet sniffer, which
would lead to the sniffer seeing an apparently corrupt packet (actually
decrypted).

Fix this by handing a copy of the packet off to the specific security
handler if the packet was cloned.

x86: shadow stacks: proper error handling for mmap lock

김영민 reports that shstk_pop_sigframe() doesn't check for errors from
mmap_read_lock_killable(), which is a silly oversight, and also shows
that we haven't marked those functions with "__must_check", which would
have immediately caught it.

So let's fix both issues.

mm: convert mm_lock_seq to a proper seqcount

2026-05-14T13:29:17+00:00

[ Upstream commit eb449bd96954b1c1e491d19066cfd2a010f0aa47 ]

Convert mm_lock_seq to be seqcount_t and change all mmap_write_lock
variants to increment it, in-line with the usual seqcount usage pattern.
This lets us check whether the mmap_lock is write-locked by checking
mm_lock_seq.sequence counter (odd=locked, even=unlocked). This will be
used when implementing mmap_lock speculation functions.
As a result vm_lock_seq is also change to be unsigned to match the type
of mm_lock_seq.sequence.
