[ Upstream commit a6f0643e4f63cfaa0d5d4a69de4f132eac4b8fe4 ]

When CONFIG_BPF_LSM=y is set, BPF inode storage maps
(BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE) are compiled into the kernel. However,
if the BPF LSM is not explicitly enabled at boot time (e.g. omitted
from the "lsm=" boot parameter), lsm_prepare() is never executed for
the BPF LSM.

Consequently, the BPF inode security blob offset
(bpf_lsm_blob_sizes.lbs_inode) is never initialized and remains at
its default compiled size of 8 bytes instead of being updated to a
valid offset past the reserved struct rcu_head (typically 16 bytes
or more).

When a privileged user creates and updates a BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE
map, bpf_inode() evaluates inode-&gt;i_security + 8. This erroneously
aliases the struct rcu_head.func callback pointer at the beginning
of the inode-&gt;i_security blob. During subsequent map element cleanup
or inode destruction, writing NULL to owner_storage clears the queued
RCU callback pointer. When rcu_do_batch() later executes the queued
callback, it attempts an instruction fetch at address 0x0, triggering
an immediate kernel panic.

Fix this by introducing a global bpf_lsm_initialized boolean flag
marked with __ro_after_init. Set this flag to true inside bpf_lsm_init()
when the LSM framework successfully registers the BPF LSM. Gate map
allocation in inode_storage_map_alloc() on this flag, returning
-EOPNOTSUPP if the BPF LSM is in turn uninitialized.

This fail-fast approach prevents userspace from allocating inode
storage maps when the supporting BPF LSM infrastructure is absent,
avoiding zombie map states.

[ Upstream commit 2f884d371fafea137afea504d49ee4a7c8d7985b ]

trie_lookup_elem() annotates its rcu_dereference_check() walks with
only rcu_read_lock_bh_held().  Because rcu_dereference_check(p, c)
resolves to "c || rcu_read_lock_held()", this passes for XDP/NAPI and
classic RCU readers but fails for sleepable BPF programs, which enter
via __bpf_prog_enter_sleepable() and hold only rcu_read_lock_trace().

trie_update_elem() and trie_delete_elem() have the same problem in a
different form: they walk the trie with plain rcu_dereference(), which
asserts rcu_read_lock_held() unconditionally.  Both are reachable from
sleepable BPF programs via the bpf_map_update_elem / bpf_map_delete_elem
helpers, and from the syscall path under classic rcu_read_lock().  In
the writer paths the trie is actually protected by trie-&gt;lock (an
rqspinlock taken across the walk); we never relied on the RCU read-side
lock to keep nodes alive there.

A sleepable LSM hook that ends up touching an LPM trie therefore
triggers lockdep on debug kernels:

  =============================
  WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
  7.1.0-... Tainted: G            E

This is lockdep-only -- no UAF, since Tasks Trace RCU does serialize
against the trie's reclaim path -- but it spams the console once per
distinct callsite on every debug kernel running a sleepable BPF LSM
that touches an LPM trie, which is increasingly common.

For the lookup path, switch the rcu_dereference_check() annotation
from rcu_read_lock_bh_held() to bpf_rcu_lock_held(), which accepts all
three contexts (classic, BH, Tasks Trace).  Other map types already
follow this convention.

For trie_update_elem() and trie_delete_elem(), annotate the walks as
rcu_dereference_protected(*p, 1) -- matching trie_free() in the same
file -- since trie-&gt;lock is held across the walk.  rqspinlock has no
lockdep_map, so the predicate degenerates to '1' rather than
lockdep_is_held(&amp;trie-&gt;lock); the protection is real but not
machine-verifiable.  trie_get_next_key() also uses bare
rcu_dereference() but is reachable only from the BPF syscall, which
holds classic rcu_read_lock() before dispatching, so it is left
untouched.

An ARRAY_OF_MAPS can use an array created with BPF_F_INNER_MAP as its
inner map template. A concrete inner array with a different max_entries
value can then replace the template.

After a successful outer map lookup, the verifier represents the
resulting map pointer using the inner map template. Const-key lookup
nullness elision consequently uses the template max_entries even though
the runtime helper uses the concrete inner map max_entries.

Do not elide lookup result nullness for maps marked with BPF_F_INNER_MAP,
because the template max_entries does not prove that the key is in bounds
for the concrete runtime map.

Introduce struct bpf_map_desc to hold bpf_map pointer and map uid. Use
this struct in both bpf_call_arg_meta and bpf_kfunc_call_arg_meta
instead of having different representations:
 - bpf_call_arg_meta had separate map_ptr and map_uid fields
 - bpf_kfunc_call_arg_meta had an anonymous inline struct

This unifies the map fields layout across both metadata structures,
making the code more consistent and preparing for further refactoring of
map field pointer validation.

[ Upstream commit 7af3339948601e188d93d7e03326aeb8fcbd6bea ]

Replace the pattern of declaring a local regs array from cur_regs()
and then indexing into it with the more concise reg_state() helper.
This simplifies the code by eliminating intermediate variables and
makes register access more consistent throughout the verifier.

[ Upstream commit 7af3339948601e188d93d7e03326aeb8fcbd6bea ]

Replace the pattern of declaring a local regs array from cur_regs()
and then indexing into it with the more concise reg_state() helper.
This simplifies the code by eliminating intermediate variables and
makes register access more consistent throughout the verifier.

<title>cgroup/cpuset: rebind mm mempolicy to effective_mems, not mems_allowed</title>

commit b983c56426383e4a06fa5970c4e33cee879b1482 upstream.

Creating a child cpuset where cpuset.mems is never set leads to a div/0
when a VMA mempolicy with MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES rebinds in response to a
CPU hotplug event.

Reproduction steps:
 1) Create a cgroup w/ cpuset controls (do not set cpuset.mems)
 2) Move the task into the child cpuset
 3) Create a VMA mempolicy for that task with MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES
 4) unplug and hotplug a cpu
      echo 0 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
      echo 1 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
 5) mempolicy rebind does a div/0 in mpol_relative_nodemask on the
    call to __nodes_fold()

The cpuset code passes (cs-&gt;mems_allowed) which is not guaranteed to have
nodes to the rebind routine.  Use cs-&gt;effective_mems instead, which is
guaranteed to have a non-empty nodemask once we reach that code path.

commit fe58f457ad8d0a2bef4e053cfecca4b5cd266b1a upstream.

This ensures that any RCU readers traversing the instance list
have finished, before releasing the reference on the tracer that
the instance points to.

commit 9a667b7750dda88cbf1cca96a53a2163b2ee71f7 upstream.

Since commit 533059281ee5 ("tracing: probeevent: Introduce new argument
 fetching code") wrongly use @offset local variable during the parsing,
the offset value is added twice when dereferencing.
Reset the @offset after setting it in FETCH_OP_FOFFS.

commit 86f436567f2516a0083b210bedc933544826a2c3 upstream.

states_show() adds CPU hotplug state names into a single sysfs buffer
using sprintf(). With enough registered states, this can write past the
end of the PAGE_SIZE buffer.

Use sysfs_emit_at() so output is bounded.
