[ Upstream commit 4a39eda5fdd867fc39f3c039714dd432cee00268 ]

cpuset_can_attach() accumulates temporary SCHED_DEADLINE migration
state in the destination cpuset while walking the taskset.

If a later task_can_attach() or security_task_setscheduler() check
fails, cgroup_migrate_execute() treats cpuset as the failing subsystem
and does not call cpuset_cancel_attach() for it. The partially
accumulated state is then left behind and can be consumed by a later
attach, corrupting cpuset DL task accounting and pending DL bandwidth
accounting.

Reset the pending DL migration state from the common error exit when
ret is non-zero. Successful can_attach() keeps the state for
cpuset_attach() or cpuset_cancel_attach().

[ Upstream commit b2aa3b4d64e460ac606f386c24e7d8a873ce6f1a ]

There currently isn't a max limit an event probe can be. One could make an
event greater than PAGE_SIZE, which makes the event useless because if
it's bigger than the max event that can be recorded into the ring buffer,
then it will never be recorded.

A event probe should never need to be greater than 3K, so make that the
max size. As long as the max is less than the max that can be recorded
onto the ring buffer, it should be fine.

<title>tracepoint: balance regfunc() on func_add() failure in tracepoint_add_func()</title>

[ Upstream commit fad217e16fded7f3c09f8637b0f6a224d58b5f2e ]

When a tracepoint goes through the 0 -&gt; 1 transition, tracepoint_add_func()
invokes the subsystem's ext-&gt;regfunc() before attempting to install the
new probe via func_add(). If func_add() then fails (for example, when
allocate_probes() cannot allocate a new probe array under memory pressure
and returns -ENOMEM), the function returns the error without calling the
matching ext-&gt;unregfunc(), leaving the side effects of regfunc() behind
with no installed probe to justify them.

For syscall tracepoints this is particularly unpleasant: syscall_regfunc()
bumps sys_tracepoint_refcount and sets SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT on every task.
After a leaked failure, the refcount is stuck at a non-zero value with no
consumer, and every task continues paying the syscall trace entry/exit
overhead until reboot. Other subsystems providing regfunc()/unregfunc()
pairs exhibit similarly scoped persistent state.

Mirror the existing 1 -&gt; 0 cleanup and call ext-&gt;unregfunc() in the
func_add() error path, gated on the same condition used there so the
unwind is symmetric with the registration.

[ Upstream commit c6e80201e057dfb7253385e60bf541121bf5dc33 ]

to_ratio() computes BW_SHIFT-scaled bandwidth ratios from u64 period and
runtime values, but it returns unsigned long.  tg_rt_schedulable() also
stores the current group limit and the accumulated child sum in unsigned
long.

On 32-bit builds, large bandwidth ratios can be truncated and the RT
group sum can wrap when enough siblings are present.  That can let an
overcommitted RT hierarchy pass the schedulability check, and it also
narrows the helper result for other callers.

Return u64 from to_ratio() and use u64 for the RT group totals so
bandwidth ratios are preserved and compared at full width on both 32-bit
and 64-bit builds.

commit 62c4d31d78294bd61cf3403626b789e854357177 upstream.

The recent ptrace fix closed a hole where someone could rely on task-&gt;mm
becoming NULL during do_exit() to bypass dumpability checks. This api
here leans on on the very same check and so inherits the fix.

But there is no good reason to let it succeed at all once the target has
entered do_exit(). PF_EXITING is set by exit_signals() at the very top
of do_exit(), before exit_mm() and exit_files() run. Once we observe it,
the task is committed to dying and exit_files() will release the fdtable
shortly.

<title>signal: clear JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK for caller in zap_other_threads()</title>

<id>f8d720bc2e35d568c18be0644e92a468de428370</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 90918794a4e2c3b440f8fcf3847765a8b1d81b25 ]

When a multi-threaded process receives a stop signal (e.g., SIGSTOP),
do_signal_stop() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING and JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME on all
threads and sets signal-&gt;group_stop_count to the number of threads. If
one of the threads concurrently calls execve(), de_thread() invokes
zap_other_threads() to kill all other threads. zap_other_threads()
aborts the pending group stop by resetting signal-&gt;group_stop_count to 0
and clears the JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK for all other threads. However, it
fails to clear the job control flags for the calling thread.

When execve() completes, the calling thread returns to user mode and
checks for pending signals. Seeing the stale JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING flag,
it calls do_signal_stop(), which invokes task_participate_group_stop().
Since JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME is still set, it attempts to decrement the
already-zero signal-&gt;group_stop_count, triggering a warning:

sig-&gt;group_stop_count == 0
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 6475 at kernel/signal.c:373
task_participate_group_stop+0x215/0x2d0
Call Trace:

 &lt;/TASK&gt;

Fix this race condition by clearing the JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK for the
calling thread in zap_other_threads(), ensuring it does not retain any
stale job control state after the thread group is destroyed. This aligns
with other functions that tear down a thread group and abort group
stops, such as zap_process() and complete_signal(), which correctly
clear these flags for all threads including the current one.

[ Upstream commit 90918794a4e2c3b440f8fcf3847765a8b1d81b25 ]

When a multi-threaded process receives a stop signal (e.g., SIGSTOP),
do_signal_stop() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING and JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME on all
threads and sets signal-&gt;group_stop_count to the number of threads. If
one of the threads concurrently calls execve(), de_thread() invokes
zap_other_threads() to kill all other threads. zap_other_threads()
aborts the pending group stop by resetting signal-&gt;group_stop_count to 0
and clears the JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK for all other threads. However, it
fails to clear the job control flags for the calling thread.

When execve() completes, the calling thread returns to user mode and
checks for pending signals. Seeing the stale JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING flag,
it calls do_signal_stop(), which invokes task_participate_group_stop().
Since JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME is still set, it attempts to decrement the
already-zero signal-&gt;group_stop_count, triggering a warning:

sig-&gt;group_stop_count == 0
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 6475 at kernel/signal.c:373
task_participate_group_stop+0x215/0x2d0

 &lt;/TASK&gt;

Fix this race condition by clearing the JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK for the
calling thread in zap_other_threads(), ensuring it does not retain any
stale job control state after the thread group is destroyed. This aligns
with other functions that tear down a thread group and abort group
stops, such as zap_process() and complete_signal(), which correctly
clear these flags for all threads including the current one.

<title>tracing: Avoid NULL return from hist_field_name() on truncation</title>

[ Upstream commit 576ec047d20b368b43c4d5db98c4f2e0f3c101ec ]

hist_field_name() returns "" everywhere except the fully-qualified
VAR_REF/EXPR case, where snprintf() truncation returns NULL early
and bypasses the bottom NULL-&gt;"" guard. Callers don't expect NULL:
strcat(expr, hist_field_name(field, 0)) at trace_events_hist.c:1758
and the strcmp() in the sort-key match loop at :4804 both deref it.

system and event_name are bounded by MAX_EVENT_NAME_LEN, but the
field name on a VAR_REF is kstrdup'd from a histogram variable
name parsed out of the trigger string and has no length cap, so
a long enough var name in a fully qualified reference can reach
the truncation path.

Keep the length check but leave field_name as "" on overflow.

<title>irq_work: Fix use-after-free in irq_work_single() on PREEMPT_RT</title>

[ Upstream commit 91840be8f710370607f949a627e070896faeddb8 ]

On PREEMPT_RT, non-HARD irq_work runs in per-CPU kthreads via
run_irq_workd(), so irq_work_sync() uses rcuwait() to wait for BUSY==0.

After irq_work_single() clears BUSY via atomic_cmpxchg(), it still
dereferences @work for irq_work_is_hard() and rcuwait_wake_up().

An irq_work_sync() caller on another CPU that enters after BUSY is cleared
can observe BUSY==0 immediately, return, and free the work before those
accesses complete — causing a use-after-free.

Fix this by wrapping run_irq_workd() in guard(rcu)() so that the entire
irq_work_single() execution is within an RCU read-side critical
section. Then add synchronize_rcu() in irq_work_sync() after
rcuwait_wait_event() to ensure the caller waits for the RCU grace period
before returning, preventing premature frees.

commit 8f0f5c4fb9df0e19a341e0c6ed8dc4fda9124f03 upstream.

In paths where tracing_map_elt_alloc() failed to allocate objects,
the map-&gt;ops-&gt;elt_alloc() call was never successful. In this case,
map-&gt;ops-&gt;elt_free() should not be called.
