[ Upstream commit ce03573a1917532da06057da9f8e74a2ee9e2ac9 ]

When using svcr_in to check ZA and Streaming Mode, we should make sure
that the value in x2 is correct, otherwise it may trigger an Illegal
instruction if FEAT_SVE and !FEAT_SME.

On some systems, neighbor discoveries from ns1 for fec0:42::1 (i.e., the
martian trap address) would happen at the wrong time and cause
false-negative test result.

Problem analysis also discovered that IPv6 martian ping test was broken
in that sent neighbor discoveries, not echo requests were inadvertently
trapped

Avoid the race condition by introducing the neighbors to each other
upfront. Also pin down the firewall rules to matching on echo requests
only.

[ Upstream commit 5f2c7ab15fd806043db1a7d54b5ec36be0bd93b1 ]

The test assumes that the packet it is sending is the only packet being
passed to the device.

However, it is not the case and so other packets are filling the buffers
as well. Therefore, the test sometimes fails because it is reading a
maximum occupancy that is larger than expected.

Add egress filters on $h1 and $h2 that will guarantee the above.

On both port_tc_ip_test() and port_tc_arp_test(), the max occupancy is
checked on $h2 twice, when only the error message is different and does not
match the check itself.

Remove the two duplicated test cases from the test.

[ Upstream commit cf3515c556907b4da290967a2a6cbbd9ee0ee723 ]

The test is sending only one packet generated with mausezahn from $h1 to
$h2. However, for some reason, it is testing for non-zero maximum occupancy
in both the ingress pool of $h1 and $h2. The former only passes when $h2
happens to send a packet.

Avoid intermittent failures by removing unintentional test case
regarding the ingress pool of $h1.

<title>bpf: Check size for BTF-based ctx access of pointer members</title>

commit 659b9ba7cb2d7adb64618b87ddfaa528a143766e upstream.

Robert Morris reported the following program type which passes the
verifier in [0]:

SEC("struct_ops/bpf_cubic_init")
void BPF_PROG(bpf_cubic_init, struct sock *sk)
{
	asm volatile("r2 = *(u16*)(r1 + 0)");     // verifier should demand u64
	asm volatile("*(u32 *)(r2 +1504) = 0");   // 1280 in some configs
}

The second line may or may not work, but the first instruction shouldn't
pass, as it's a narrow load into the context structure of the struct ops
callback. The code falls back to btf_ctx_access to ensure correctness
and obtaining the types of pointers. Ensure that the size of the access
is correctly checked to be 8 bytes, otherwise the verifier thinks the
narrow load obtained a trusted BTF pointer and will permit loads/stores
as it sees fit.

Perform the check on size after we've verified that the load is for a
pointer field, as for scalar values narrow loads are fine. Access to
structs passed as arguments to a BPF program are also treated as
scalars, therefore no adjustment is needed in their case.

Existing verifier selftests are broken by this change, but because they
were incorrect. Verifier tests for d_path were performing narrow load
into context to obtain path pointer, had this program actually run it
would cause a crash. The same holds for verifier_btf_ctx_access tests.

commit c00d738e1673ab801e1577e4e3c780ccf88b1a5b upstream.

This patch reverts commit
cb4158ce8ec8 ("bpf: Mark raw_tp arguments with PTR_MAYBE_NULL"). The
patch was well-intended and meant to be as a stop-gap fixing branch
prediction when the pointer may actually be NULL at runtime. Eventually,
it was supposed to be replaced by an automated script or compiler pass
detecting possibly NULL arguments and marking them accordingly.

However, it caused two main issues observed for production programs and
failed to preserve backwards compatibility. First, programs relied on
the verifier not exploring == NULL branch when pointer is not NULL, thus
they started failing with a 'dereference of scalar' error.  Next,
allowing raw_tp arguments to be modified surfaced the warning in the
verifier that warns against reg-&gt;off when PTR_MAYBE_NULL is set.

More information, context, and discusson on both problems is available
in [0]. Overall, this approach had several shortcomings, and the fixes
would further complicate the verifier's logic, and the entire masking
scheme would have to be removed eventually anyway.

Hence, revert the patch in preparation of a better fix avoiding these
issues to replace this commit.

commit d44d26987bb3df6d76556827097fc9ce17565cb8 upstream.

Since 135225a363ae timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() handles large offsets which
would lead to 64bit multiplication overflows correctly. It's also protected
against negative motion of the clocksource unconditionally, which was
exclusive to x86 before.

timekeeping_advance() handles large offsets already correctly.

That means the value of CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING which analyzed these cases
is very close to zero. Remove all of it.

commit d44d26987bb3df6d76556827097fc9ce17565cb8 upstream.

Since 135225a363ae timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() handles large offsets which
would lead to 64bit multiplication overflows correctly. It's also protected
against negative motion of the clocksource unconditionally, which was
exclusive to x86 before.

timekeeping_advance() handles large offsets already correctly.

That means the value of CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING which analyzed these cases
is very close to zero. Remove all of it.

[ Upstream commit 777f290ab328de333b85558bb6807a69a59b36ba ]

In 'NOFENTRY_ARGS' test case for syntax check, any offset X of
`vfs_read+X` except function entry offset (0) fits the criterion,
even if that offset is not at instruction boundary, as the parser
comes before probing. But with "ENDBR64" instruction on x86, offset
4 is treated as function entry. So, X can't be 4 as well. Thus, 8
was used as offset for the test case. On 64-bit powerpc though, any
offset &lt;= 16 can be considered function entry depending on build
configuration (see arch_kprobe_on_func_entry() for implementation
details). So, use `vfs_read+20` to accommodate that scenario too.

<title>selftests/resctrl: Protect against array overflow when reading strings</title>

[ Upstream commit 46058430fc5d39c114f7e1b9c6ff14c9f41bd531 ]

resctrl selftests discover system properties via a variety of sysfs files.
The MBM and MBA tests need to discover the event and umask with which to
configure the performance event used to measure read memory bandwidth.
This is done by parsing the contents of
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/uncore_imc_&lt;imc instance&gt;/events/cas_count_read
Similarly, the resctrl selftests discover the cache size via
/sys/bus/cpu/devices/cpu&lt;id&gt;/cache/index&lt;index&gt;/size.

Take care to do bounds checking when using fscanf() to read the
contents of files into a string buffer because by default fscanf() assumes
arbitrarily long strings. If the file contains more bytes than the array
can accommodate then an overflow will occur.

Provide a maximum field width to the conversion specifier to protect
against array overflow. The maximum is one less than the array size because
string input stores a terminating null byte that is not covered by the
maximum field width.
