commit 23a4b108accc29a6125ed14de4a044689ffeda78 upstream.

The kprobe_eventname.tc test checks if a function with .isra. can have a
kprobe attached to it. It loops through the kallsyms file for all the
functions that have the .isra. name, and checks if it exists in the
available_filter_functions file, and if it does, it uses it to attach a
kprobe to it.

The issue is that kprobes can not attach to functions that are listed more
than once in available_filter_functions. With the latest kernel, the
function that is found is: rapl_event_update.isra.0

  # grep rapl_event_update.isra.0 /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions
  rapl_event_update.isra.0
  rapl_event_update.isra.0

It is listed twice. This causes the attached kprobe to it to fail which in
turn fails the test. Instead of just picking the function function that is
found in available_filter_functions, pick the first one that is listed
only once in available_filter_functions.

commit 40eec1795cc27b076d49236649a29507c7ed8c2d upstream.

The creation of new subflows can fail for different reasons. If no
subflow have been created using the received ADD_ADDR, the related
counters should not be updated, otherwise they will never be decremented
for events related to this ID later on.

For the moment, the number of accepted ADD_ADDR is only decremented upon
the reception of a related RM_ADDR, and only if the remote address ID is
currently being used by at least one subflow. In other words, if no
subflow can be created with the received address, the counter will not
be decremented. In this case, it is then important not to increment
pm.add_addr_accepted counter, and not to modify pm.accept_addr bit.

Note that this patch does not modify the behaviour in case of failures
later on, e.g. if the MP Join is dropped or rejected.

The "remove invalid addresses" MP Join subtest has been modified to
validate this case. The broadcast IP address is added before the "valid"
address that will be used to successfully create a subflow, and the
limit is decreased by one: without this patch, it was not possible to
create the last subflow, because:

- the broadcast address would have been accepted even if it was not
  usable: the creation of a subflow to this address results in an error,

- the limit of 2 accepted ADD_ADDR would have then been reached.

<title>mptcp: pm: inc RmAddr MIB counter once per RM_ADDR ID</title>

commit 6a09788c1a66e3d8b04b3b3e7618cc817bb60ae9 upstream.

The RmAddr MIB counter is supposed to be incremented once when a valid
RM_ADDR has been received. Before this patch, it could have been
incremented as many times as the number of subflows connected to the
linked address ID, so it could have been 0, 1 or more than 1.

The "RmSubflow" is incremented after a local operation. In this case,
it is normal to tied it with the number of subflows that have been
actually removed.

The "remove invalid addresses" MP Join subtest has been modified to
validate this case. A broadcast IP address is now used instead: the
client will not be able to create a subflow to this address. The
consequence is that when receiving the RM_ADDR with the ID attached to
this broadcast IP address, no subflow linked to this ID will be found.

[ Upstream commit 4bf15b1c657d22d1d70173e43264e4606dfe75ff ]

When building with clang, via:

    make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests

...clang issues this warning:

futex_requeue_pi.c:403:17: warning: passing 'const char **' to parameter
of type 'char **' discards qualifiers in nested pointer types
[-Wincompatible-pointer-types-discards-qualifiers]

This warning fires because test_name is passed into asprintf(3), which
then changes it.

Fix this by simply removing the const qualifier. This is a local
automatic variable in a very short function, so there is not much need
to use the compiler to enforce const-ness at this scope.

[ Upstream commit fb9293b6b0156fbf6ab97a1625d99a29c36d9f0c ]

Reset nr_hugepages to zero before the start of the test.

If a non-zero number of hugepages is already set before the start of the
test, the following problems arise:

 - The probability of the test getting OOM-killed increases.  Proof:
   The test wants to run on 80% of available memory to prevent OOM-killing
   (see original code comments).  Let the value of mem_free at the start
   of the test, when nr_hugepages = 0, be x.  In the other case, when
   nr_hugepages &gt; 0, let the memory consumed by hugepages be y.  In the
   former case, the test operates on 0.8 * x of memory.  In the latter,
   the test operates on 0.8 * (x - y) of memory, with y already filled,
   hence, memory consumed is y + 0.8 * (x - y) = 0.8 * x + 0.2 * y &gt; 0.8 *
   x.  Q.E.D

 - The probability of a bogus test success increases.  Proof: Let the
   memory consumed by hugepages be greater than 25% of x, with x and y
   defined as above.  The definition of compaction_index is c_index = (x -
   y)/z where z is the memory consumed by hugepages after trying to
   increase them again.  In check_compaction(), we set the number of
   hugepages to zero, and then increase them back; the probability that
   they will be set back to consume at least y amount of memory again is
   very high (since there is not much delay between the two attempts of
   changing nr_hugepages).  Hence, z &gt;= y &gt; (x/4) (by the 25% assumption).
   Therefore, c_index = (x - y)/z &lt;= (x - y)/y = x/y - 1 &lt; 4 - 1 = 3
   hence, c_index can always be forced to be less than 3, thereby the test
   succeeding always.  Q.E.D

[ Upstream commit fb9293b6b0156fbf6ab97a1625d99a29c36d9f0c ]

Reset nr_hugepages to zero before the start of the test.

If a non-zero number of hugepages is already set before the start of the
test, the following problems arise:

 - The probability of the test getting OOM-killed increases.  Proof:
   The test wants to run on 80% of available memory to prevent OOM-killing
   (see original code comments).  Let the value of mem_free at the start
   of the test, when nr_hugepages = 0, be x.  In the other case, when
   nr_hugepages &gt; 0, let the memory consumed by hugepages be y.  In the
   former case, the test operates on 0.8 * x of memory.  In the latter,
   the test operates on 0.8 * (x - y) of memory, with y already filled,
   hence, memory consumed is y + 0.8 * (x - y) = 0.8 * x + 0.2 * y &gt; 0.8 *
   x.  Q.E.D

   memory consumed by hugepages be greater than 25% of x, with x and y

[ Upstream commit 69e545edbe8b17c26aa06ef7e430d0be7f08d876 ]

After commit f7d5bcd35d42 ("selftests: kselftest: Mark functions that
unconditionally call exit() as __noreturn"), ksft_exit_...() functions
are marked as __noreturn, which means the return type should not be
'int' but 'void' because they are not returning anything (and never were
since exit() has always been called).

To facilitate updating the return type of these functions, remove
'return' before the calls to ksft_exit_...(), as __noreturn prevents the
compiler from warning that a caller of the ksft_exit functions does not
return a value because the program will terminate upon calling these
functions.

<title>bpf: fix multi-uprobe PID filtering logic</title>

commit 46ba0e49b64232adac35a2bc892f1710c5b0fb7f upstream.

Current implementation of PID filtering logic for multi-uprobes in
uprobe_prog_run() is filtering down to exact *thread*, while the intent
for PID filtering it to filter by *process* instead. The check in
uprobe_prog_run() also differs from the analogous one in
uprobe_multi_link_filter() for some reason. The latter is correct,
checking task-&gt;mm, not the task itself.

Fix the check in uprobe_prog_run() to perform the same task-&gt;mm check.

While doing this, we also update get_pid_task() use to use PIDTYPE_TGID
type of lookup, given the intent is to get a representative task of an
entire process. This doesn't change behavior, but seems more logical. It
would hold task group leader task now, not any random thread task.

Last but not least, given multi-uprobe support is half-broken due to
this PID filtering logic (depending on whether PID filtering is
important or not), we need to make it easy for user space consumers
(including libbpf) to easily detect whether PID filtering logic was
already fixed.

We do it here by adding an early check on passed pid parameter. If it's
negative (and so has no chance of being a valid PID), we return -EINVAL.
Previous behavior would eventually return -ESRCH ("No process found"),
given there can't be any process with negative PID. This subtle change
won't make any practical change in behavior, but will allow applications
to detect PID filtering fixes easily. Libbpf fixes take advantage of
this in the next patch.
