[ Upstream commit 02bf1f8b3c43eec5053c35c14fb9f138186b4123 ]

As per commit 131b30c94fbc ("kselftest: exclude failed TARGETS from
runlist") failed targets were excluded from the runlist. But value
$$INSTALL_PATH is always NULL. It should be $INSTALL_PATH instead
$$INSTALL_PATH.

So, fix Makefile to use $INSTALL_PATH.

[ Upstream commit 2745aea6750ff0d2c48285d25bdb00e5b636ec8b ]

Some versions of iproute2 will output more than one line per entry, which
will cause the test to fail, like:

TEST: ipv6: list and flush cached exceptions                        [FAIL]
  can't list cached exceptions

That happens, for example, with iproute2 4.15.0. When using the -oneline
option, this will work just fine:

TEST: ipv6: list and flush cached exceptions                        [ OK ]

This also works just fine with a more recent version of iproute2, like
5.4.0.

For some reason, two lines are printed for the IPv4 test no matter what
version of iproute2 is used. Use the same -oneline parameter there instead
of counting the lines twice.

<title>mm/gup_benchmark: fix MAP_HUGETLB case</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 64801d19eba156170340c76f70ade743defcb8ce ]

The MAP_HUGETLB ("-H" option) of gup_benchmark fails:

  $ sudo ./gup_benchmark -H
  mmap: Invalid argument

This is because gup_benchmark.c is passing in a file descriptor to
mmap(), but the fd came from opening up the /dev/zero file.  This
confuses the mmap syscall implementation, which thinks that, if the
caller did not specify MAP_ANONYMOUS, then the file must be a huge page
file.  So it attempts to verify that the file really is a huge page
file, as you can see here:

ksys_mmap_pgoff()
{
    if (!(flags &amp; MAP_ANONYMOUS)) {
        retval = -EINVAL;
        if (unlikely(flags &amp; MAP_HUGETLB &amp;&amp; !is_file_hugepages(file)))
            goto out_fput; /* THIS IS WHERE WE END UP */

    else if (flags &amp; MAP_HUGETLB) {
        ...proceed normally, /dev/zero is ok here...

...and of course is_file_hugepages() returns "false" for the /dev/zero
file.

The problem is that the user space program, gup_benchmark.c, really just
wants anonymous memory here.  The simplest way to get that is to pass
MAP_ANONYMOUS whenever MAP_HUGETLB is specified, so that's what this
patch does.

<title>bpf: Allow narrow loads of bpf_sysctl fields with offset &gt; 0</title>

[ Upstream commit 7541c87c9b7a7e07c84481f37f2c19063b44469b ]

"ctx:file_pos sysctl:read read ok narrow" works on s390 by accident: it
reads the wrong byte, which happens to have the expected value of 0.
Improve the test by seeking to the 4th byte and expecting 4 instead of
0.

This makes the latent problem apparent: the test attempts to read the
first byte of bpf_sysctl.file_pos, assuming this is the least-significant
byte, which is not the case on big-endian machines: a non-zero offset is
needed.

The point of the test is to verify narrow loads, so we cannot cheat our
way out by simply using BPF_W. The existence of the test means that such
loads have to be supported, most likely because llvm can generate them.
Fix the test by adding a big-endian variant, which uses an offset to
access the least-significant byte of bpf_sysctl.file_pos.

This reveals the final problem: verifier rejects accesses to bpf_sysctl
fields with offset &gt; 0. Such accesses are already allowed for a wide
range of structs: __sk_buff, bpf_sock_addr and sk_msg_md to name a few.
Extend this support to bpf_sysctl by using bpf_ctx_range instead of
offsetof when matching field offsets.

commit 4d2fa82d98d2d296043a04eb517d7dbade5b13b8 upstream.

If the kernel accidentally uses DS or ES while the user values are
loaded, it will work fine for sane userspace.  In the interest of
simulating maximally insane userspace, make sigreturn_32 zero out DS
and ES for the nasty parts so that inadvertent use of these segments
will crash.

commit 8caa016bfc129f2c925d52da43022171d1d1de91 upstream.

For reasons that I haven't quite fully diagnosed, running
mov_ss_trap_32 on a 32-bit kernel results in an infinite loop in
userspace.  This appears to be because the hacky SYSENTER test
doesn't segfault as desired; instead it corrupts the program state
such that it infinite loops.

Fix it by explicitly clearing EBP before doing SYSENTER.  This will
give a more reliable segfault.
