commit e05501e8a84eee4f819f31b9ce663bddd01b3b69 upstream.

Commit 458ba8189cb4 ("cxl: Add cxl_decoders_committed() helper") missed the
conversion for cxl_test. Add usage of cxl_num_decoders_committed() to
replace the open coding.

[ Upstream commit 61fa2493ca76fd7bb74e13f0205274f4ab0aa696 ]

Similar to commit be809424659c ("selftests: bonding: do not set port down
before adding to bond"). The bond-arp-interval-causes-panic test failed
after commit a4abfa627c38 ("net: rtnetlink: Enslave device before bringing
it up") as the kernel will set the port down _after_ adding to bond if setting
port down specifically.

Fix it by removing the link down operation when adding to bond.

<title>selftests: secretmem: floor the memory size to the multiple of page_size</title>

commit 0aac13add26d546ac74c89d2883b3a5f0fbea039 upstream.

The "locked-in-memory size" limit per process can be non-multiple of
page_size.  The mmap() fails if we try to allocate locked-in-memory with
same size as the allowed limit if it isn't multiple of the page_size
because mmap() rounds off the memory size to be allocated to next multiple
of page_size.

Fix this by flooring the length to be allocated with mmap() to the
previous multiple of the page_size.

This was getting triggered on KernelCI regularly because of different
ulimit settings which wasn't multiple of the page_size.  Find logs
here: https://linux.kernelci.org/test/plan/id/657654bd8e81e654fae13532/
The bug in was present from the time test was first added.

commit 4249f13c11be8b8b7bf93204185e150c3bdc968d upstream.

mas_preallocate() defaults to requesting 1 node for preallocation and then
,depending on the type of store, will update the request variable.  There
isn't a check for a slot store type, so slot stores are preallocating the
default 1 node.  Slot stores do not require any additional nodes, so add a
check for the slot store case that will bypass node_count_gfp().  Update
the tests to reflect that slot stores do not require allocations.

User visible effects of this bug include increased memory usage from the
unneeded node that was allocated.

commit c8f021eec5817601dbd25ab7e3ad5c720965c688 upstream.

MPC backups tests will skip unexpected sometimes (For example, when
compiling kernel with an older version of gcc, such as gcc-8), since
static functions like mptcp_subflow_send_ack also be listed in
/proc/kallsyms, with a 't' in front of it, not 'T' ('T' is for a global
function):

 &gt; grep "mptcp_subflow_send_ack" /proc/kallsyms

 0000000000000000 T __pfx___mptcp_subflow_send_ack
 0000000000000000 T __mptcp_subflow_send_ack
 0000000000000000 t __pfx_mptcp_subflow_send_ack
 0000000000000000 t mptcp_subflow_send_ack

In this case, mptcp_lib_kallsyms_doesnt_have "mptcp_subflow_send_ack$"
will be false, MPC backups tests will skip. This is not what we expected.

The correct logic here should be: if mptcp_subflow_send_ack is not a
global function in /proc/kallsyms, do these MPC backups tests. So a 'T'
must be added in front of mptcp_subflow_send_ack.

commit 43e8832fed08438e2a27afed9bac21acd0ceffe5 upstream.

This reverts commit 9fc96c7c19df ("selftests: error out if kernel header
files are not yet built").

It turns out that requiring the kernel headers to be built as a
prerequisite to building selftests, does not work in many cases. For
example, Peter Zijlstra writes:

"My biggest beef with the whole thing is that I simply do not want to use
'make headers', it doesn't work for me.

I have a ton of output directories and I don't care to build tools into
the output dirs, in fact some of them flat out refuse to work that way
(bpf comes to mind)." [1]

Therefore, stop erroring out on the selftests build. Additional patches
will be required in order to change over to not requiring the kernel
headers.

<title>selftests/bpf: fix bpf_loop_bench for new callback verification scheme</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit f40bfd1679446b22d321e64a1fa98b7d07d2be08 ]

This is a preparatory change. A follow-up patch "bpf: verify callbacks
as if they are called unknown number of times" changes logic for
callbacks handling. While previously callbacks were verified as a
single function call, new scheme takes into account that callbacks
could be executed unknown number of times.

This has dire implications for bpf_loop_bench:

    SEC("fentry/" SYS_PREFIX "sys_getpgid")
    int benchmark(void *ctx)
    {
            for (int i = 0; i &lt; 1000; i++) {
                    bpf_loop(nr_loops, empty_callback, NULL, 0);
                    __sync_add_and_fetch(&amp;hits, nr_loops);
            }
            return 0;
    }

W/o callbacks change verifier sees it as a 1000 calls to
empty_callback(). However, with callbacks change things become
exponential:
- i=0: state exploring empty_callback is scheduled with i=0 (a);
- i=1: state exploring empty_callback is scheduled with i=1;
  ...
- i=999: state exploring empty_callback is scheduled with i=999;
- state (a) is popped from stack;
- i=1: state exploring empty_callback is scheduled with i=1;
  ...

Avoid this issue by rewriting outer loop as bpf_loop().
Unfortunately, this adds a function call to a loop at runtime, which
negatively affects performance:

[ Upstream commit f40bfd1679446b22d321e64a1fa98b7d07d2be08 ]

This is a preparatory change. A follow-up patch "bpf: verify callbacks
as if they are called unknown number of times" changes logic for
callbacks handling. While previously callbacks were verified as a
single function call, new scheme takes into account that callbacks
could be executed unknown number of times.

This has dire implications for bpf_loop_bench:

    SEC("fentry/" SYS_PREFIX "sys_getpgid")
    int benchmark(void *ctx)
    {
            for (int i = 0; i &lt; 1000; i++) {
                    bpf_loop(nr_loops, empty_callback, NULL, 0);
                    __sync_add_and_fetch(&amp;hits, nr_loops);
            }
            return 0;
    }

W/o callbacks change verifier sees it as a 1000 calls to
empty_callback(). However, with callbacks change things become
exponential:
- i=0: state exploring empty_callback is scheduled with i=0 (a);
- i=1: state exploring empty_callback is scheduled with i=1;
  ...
- i=999: state exploring empty_callback is scheduled with i=999;
- state (a) is popped from stack;
- i=1: state exploring empty_callback is scheduled with i=1;
  ...

Avoid this issue by rewriting outer loop as bpf_loop().

negatively affects performance:

<title>selftests/mm: cow: print ksft header before printing anything else</title>

[ Upstream commit a6fcd57cf2df409d35e9225b8dbad6f937b28df0 ]

Doing a ksft_print_msg() before the ksft_print_header() seems to confuse
the ksft framework in a strange way: running the test on the cmdline
results in the expected output.

But piping the output somewhere else, results in some odd output,
whereby we repeatedly get the same info printed:
	# [INFO] detected THP size: 2048 KiB
	# [INFO] detected hugetlb page size: 2048 KiB
	# [INFO] detected hugetlb page size: 1048576 KiB
	# [INFO] huge zeropage is enabled
	TAP version 13
	1..190
	# [INFO] Anonymous memory tests in private mappings
	# [RUN] Basic COW after fork() ... with base page
	# [INFO] detected THP size: 2048 KiB
	# [INFO] detected hugetlb page size: 2048 KiB
	# [INFO] detected hugetlb page size: 1048576 KiB

	# [INFO] Anonymous memory tests in private mappings
	# [RUN] Basic COW after fork() ... with base page

	# [RUN] Basic COW after fork() ... with swapped out base page

	# [INFO] detected hugetlb page size: 2048 KiB
	# [INFO] detected hugetlb page size: 1048576 KiB
	# [INFO] huge zeropage is enabled

Doing the ksft_print_header() first seems to resolve that and gives us
the output we expect:
	TAP version 13
	# [INFO] detected THP size: 2048 KiB
	# [INFO] detected hugetlb page size: 2048 KiB

commit ae1914174a63a558113e80d24ccac2773f9f7b2b upstream.

This code is rarely (never?) enabled by distros, and it hasn't caught
anything in decades. Let's kill off this legacy debug code.

[ Upstream commit 00a4f8fd9c750f20d8fd4535c71c9caa7ef5ff2f ]

Same init_rng() in both tests. The function reads /dev/urandom to
initialize srand(). In case of failure, it falls back onto the
entropy in the uninitialized variable. Not sure if this is on purpose.
But failure reading urandom should be rare, so just fail hard. While
at it, convert to getrandom(). Which man 4 random suggests is simpler
and more robust.

    mptcp_inq.c:525:6:
    mptcp_connect.c:1131:6:

    error: variable 'foo' is used uninitialized
    whenever 'if' condition is false
    [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]

When input is randomized because this is expected to meaningfully
explore edge cases, should we also add
1. logging the random seed to stdout and
2. adding a command line argument to replay from a specific seed
I can do this in net-next, if authors find it useful in this case.
