commit 53705ddfa18408f8e1f064331b6387509fa19f7f upstream.

When pm_netlink.sh is executed with '-i', 'ip mptcp' is used instead of
'pm_nl_ctl'. IPRoute2 doesn't support the 'unknown' flag, which has only
been added to 'pm_nl_ctl' for this specific check: to ensure that the
kernel ignores such unsupported flag.

No reason to add this flag to 'ip mptcp'. Then, this check should be
skipped when 'ip mptcp' is used.

commit 65db7b27b90e2ea8d4966935aa9a50b6a60c31ac upstream.

Using '${?}' inside the if-statement to check the returned value from
the command that was evaluated as part of the if-statement is not
correct: here, '${?}' will be linked to the previous instruction, not
the one that is expected here (${cmd}).

Instead, simply mark the error, except if an error is expected. If
that's the case, 1 can be passed as the 4th argument of this helper.
Three checks from pm_netlink.sh expect an error.

While at it, improve the error message when the command unexpectedly
fails or succeeds.

Note that we could expect a specific returned value, but the checks
currently expecting an error can be used with 'ip mptcp' or 'pm_nl_ctl',
and these two tools don't return the same error code.

commit fdf4eb632683bfc2840acebe62716cb468d43e10 upstream.

The RSEQ legacy mode behavior requires that the ID fields in the rseq
region are unconditionally updated on every context switch and before
signal delivery even if not required by the ABI specification.

To ensure that this behavior is preserved for legacy users in the future,
add a test which validates that with a sleep() and a signal sent to self.

Provide a run script which prevents GLIBC from registering a RSEQ region,
so that the test can register it's own legacy sized region.

commit d97cb2ef0b221b068e90b6058aa97faa0626bdab upstream.

rseq_register_current_thread() either uses the glibc registered RSEQ region
or registers it's own region with the legacy size of 32 bytes.

That worked so far, but becomes a problem when the kernel implements a
distinction between legacy and performance optimized behavior based on the
registration size as that does not allow to test both modes with the self
test suite.

Add two arguments to the function. One to enforce that the registration is
not using libc provided mode and one to tell the registration to use the
legacy size and not the kernel advertised size.

Rename it and make the original one a inline wrapper which preserves the
existing behavior.

commit cb48828f06afa232cc330f0f4d6be101067810b3 upstream.

The rseq selftests include two runner scripts run_param_test.sh and
run_syscall_errors_test.sh which set up the environment for test binaries
and run them with various parameters. Currently we list these test binaries
in TEST_GEN_PROGS but this results in the kselftest framework running them
directly as well as via the runners, resulting in duplication and spurious
failures when the environment is not correctly set up (eg, if glibc tries
to use rseq).

Move the binaries the runners invoke to TEST_GEN_PROGS_EXTENDED, binaries
listed there are built but not run by the framework.  The param_test
benchmarks are not moved since they are not run by run_param_test.sh.

[ Upstream commit 3e4bb2706817710d9461394da8b75be79981586b ]

Patch series "mm: expand mmap_prepare functionality and usage", v4.

This series expands the mmap_prepare functionality, which is intended to
replace the deprecated f_op-&gt;mmap hook which has been the source of bugs
and security issues for some time.

This series starts with some cleanup of existing mmap_prepare logic, then
adds documentation for the mmap_prepare call to make it easier for
filesystem and driver writers to understand how it works.

It then importantly adds a vm_ops-&gt;mapped hook, a key feature that was
missing from mmap_prepare previously - this is invoked when a driver which
specifies mmap_prepare has successfully been mapped but not merged with
another VMA.

mmap_prepare is invoked prior to a merge being attempted, so you cannot
manipulate state such as reference counts as if it were a new mapping.

The vm_ops-&gt;mapped hook allows a driver to perform tasks required at this
stage, and provides symmetry against subsequent vm_ops-&gt;open,close calls.

The series uses this to correct the afs implementation which wrongly
manipulated reference count at mmap_prepare time.

It then adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_iomap_memory() -
mmap_action_simple_ioremap(), then uses this to update a number of drivers.

It then splits out the mmap_prepare compatibility layer (which allows for
invocation of mmap_prepare hooks in an mmap() hook) in such a way as to
allow for more incremental implementation of mmap_prepare hooks.

It then uses this to extend mmap_prepare usage in drivers.

Finally it adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_map_pages(), which lays
the foundation for future work which will extend mmap_prepare to DMA
coherent mappings.

This patch (of 21):

Rather than passing arbitrary fields, pass a vm_area_desc pointer to mmap
prepare functions to mmap prepare, and an action and vma pointer to mmap
complete in order to put all the action-specific logic in the function
actually doing the work.

Additionally, allow mmap prepare functions to return an error so we can
error out as soon as possible if there is something logically incorrect in
the input.

Update remap_pfn_range_prepare() to properly check the input range for the
CoW case.

Also remove io_remap_pfn_range_complete(), as we can simply set up the
fields correctly in io_remap_pfn_range_prepare() and use
remap_pfn_range_complete() for this.

While we're here, make remap_pfn_range_prepare_vma() a little neater, and
pass mmap_action directly to call_action_complete().

Then, update compat_vma_mmap() to perform its logic directly, as
__compat_vma_map() is not used by anything so we don't need to export it.

Also update compat_vma_mmap() to use vfs_mmap_prepare() rather than
calling the mmap_prepare op directly.

Finally, update the VMA userland tests to reflect the changes.

[ Upstream commit 3e4bb2706817710d9461394da8b75be79981586b ]

Patch series "mm: expand mmap_prepare functionality and usage", v4.

This series expands the mmap_prepare functionality, which is intended to
replace the deprecated f_op-&gt;mmap hook which has been the source of bugs
and security issues for some time.

This series starts with some cleanup of existing mmap_prepare logic, then
adds documentation for the mmap_prepare call to make it easier for
filesystem and driver writers to understand how it works.

It then importantly adds a vm_ops-&gt;mapped hook, a key feature that was
missing from mmap_prepare previously - this is invoked when a driver which
specifies mmap_prepare has successfully been mapped but not merged with
another VMA.

mmap_prepare is invoked prior to a merge being attempted, so you cannot
manipulate state such as reference counts as if it were a new mapping.

The vm_ops-&gt;mapped hook allows a driver to perform tasks required at this
stage, and provides symmetry against subsequent vm_ops-&gt;open,close calls.

The series uses this to correct the afs implementation which wrongly
manipulated reference count at mmap_prepare time.

It then adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_iomap_memory() -
mmap_action_simple_ioremap(), then uses this to update a number of drivers.

It then splits out the mmap_prepare compatibility layer (which allows for
invocation of mmap_prepare hooks in an mmap() hook) in such a way as to
allow for more incremental implementation of mmap_prepare hooks.

It then uses this to extend mmap_prepare usage in drivers.

Finally it adds an mmap_prepare equivalent of vm_map_pages(), which lays
the foundation for future work which will extend mmap_prepare to DMA
coherent mappings.

This patch (of 21):

Rather than passing arbitrary fields, pass a vm_area_desc pointer to mmap
prepare functions to mmap prepare, and an action and vma pointer to mmap
complete in order to put all the action-specific logic in the function
actually doing the work.

Additionally, allow mmap prepare functions to return an error so we can
error out as soon as possible if there is something logically incorrect in
the input.

Update remap_pfn_range_prepare() to properly check the input range for the
CoW case.

Also remove io_remap_pfn_range_complete(), as we can simply set up the
fields correctly in io_remap_pfn_range_prepare() and use
remap_pfn_range_complete() for this.

While we're here, make remap_pfn_range_prepare_vma() a little neater, and
pass mmap_action directly to call_action_complete().

Then, update compat_vma_mmap() to perform its logic directly, as
__compat_vma_map() is not used by anything so we don't need to export it.

Also update compat_vma_mmap() to use vfs_mmap_prepare() rather than
calling the mmap_prepare op directly.

Finally, update the VMA userland tests to reflect the changes.

commit 768059ede35f197575a38b10797b52402d9d4d2f upstream.

The Perl localtime() function returns the month starting at 0 not 1. This
caused the date produced to create the directory for saving files of a
failed run to have the month off by one.

  machine-test-useconfig-fail-20260314073628

The above happened in April, not March. The correct name should have been:

  machine-test-useconfig-fail-20260414073628

This was somewhat confusing.

<title>selftests/landlock: Skip stale records in audit_match_record()</title>

commit 07c2572a87573b2a2f0fd6b9f538cd1aeef2eee7 upstream.

Domain deallocation records are emitted asynchronously from kworker
threads (via free_ruleset_work()).  Stale deallocation records from a
previous test can arrive during the current test's deallocation read
loop and be picked up by audit_match_record() instead of the expected
record, causing a domain ID mismatch.  The audit.layers test (which
creates 16 nested domains) is particularly vulnerable because it reads
16 deallocation records in sequence, providing a large window for stale
records to interleave.

The same issue affects audit_flags.signal, where deallocation records
from a previous test (audit.layers) can leak into the next test and be
picked up by audit_match_record() instead of the expected record.

Fix this by continuing to read records when the type matches but the
content pattern does not.  Stale records are silently consumed, and the
loop only stops when both type and pattern match (or the socket times
out with -EAGAIN).

Additionally, extend matches_log_domain_deallocated() with an
expected_domain_id parameter.  When set, the regex pattern includes the
specific domain ID as a literal hex value, so that deallocation records
for a different domain do not match the pattern at all.  This handles
the case where the stale record has the same denial count as the
expected one (e.g. both have denials=1), which the type+pattern loop
alone cannot distinguish.  Callers that already know the expected domain
ID (from a prior denial or allocation record) now pass it to filter
precisely.

When expected_domain_id is set, matches_log_domain_deallocated() also
temporarily increases the socket timeout to audit_tv_dom_drop (1 second)
to wait for the asynchronous kworker deallocation, and restores
audit_tv_default afterward.  This removes the need for callers to manage
the timeout switch manually.
