perf tools: Fix build error for LoongArch

2025-05-22T12:31:58+00:00

There exists the following error when building perf tools on LoongArch:

  CC      util/syscalltbl.o
In file included from util/syscalltbl.c:16:
tools/perf/arch/loongarch/include/syscall_table.h:2:10: fatal error: asm/syscall_table_64.h: No such file or directory
    2 | #include 
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

This is because the generated syscall header is syscalls_64.h rather
than syscall_table_64.h. The above problem was introduced from v6.14,
then the header syscall_table.h has been removed from mainline tree
in commit af472d3c4454 ("perf syscalltbl: Remove syscall_table.h"),
just fix it only for the linux-6.14.y branch of stable tree.

By the way, no need to fix the mainline tree and there is no upstream
git id for this patch.

How to reproduce:

  git clone https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git
  cd linux && git checkout origin/linux-6.14.y
  make JOBS=1 -C tools/perf

vsock/test: Fix occasional failure in SIOCOUTQ tests

2025-05-22T12:31:44+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7fd7ad6f36af36f30a06d165eff3780cb139fa79 ]

These tests:
    "SOCK_STREAM ioctl(SIOCOUTQ) 0 unsent bytes"
    "SOCK_SEQPACKET ioctl(SIOCOUTQ) 0 unsent bytes"
output: "Unexpected 'SIOCOUTQ' value, expected 0, got 64 (CLIENT)".

They test that the SIOCOUTQ ioctl reports 0 unsent bytes after the data
have been received by the other side. However, sometimes there is a delay
in updating this "unsent bytes" counter, and the test fails even though
the counter properly goes to 0 several milliseconds later.

The delay occurs in the kernel because the used buffer notification
callback virtio_vsock_tx_done(), called upon receipt of the data by the
other side, doesn't update the counter itself. It delegates that to
a kernel thread (via vsock->tx_work). Sometimes that thread is delayed
more than the test expects.

Change the test to poll SIOCOUTQ until it returns 0 or a timeout occurs.

tests/ncdevmem: Fix double-free of queue array

2025-05-22T12:31:43+00:00

[ Upstream commit 97c4e094a4b2edbb4fffeda718f8e806f825a18f ]

netdev_bind_rx takes ownership of the queue array passed as parameter
and frees it, so a queue array buffer cannot be reused across multiple
netdev_bind_rx calls.

This commit fixes that by always passing in a newly created queue array
to all netdev_bind_rx calls in ncdevmem.

selftest/x86/bugs: Add selftests for ITS

2025-05-18T06:26:10+00:00

commit 7a9b709e7cc5ce1ffb84ce07bf6d157e1de758df upstream.

Below are the tests added for Indirect Target Selection (ITS):

- its_sysfs.py - Check if sysfs reflects the correct mitigation status for
  the mitigation selected via the kernel cmdline.

- its_permutations.py - tests mitigation selection with cmdline
  permutations with other bugs like spectre_v2 and retbleed.

- its_indirect_alignment.py - verifies that for addresses in
  .retpoline_sites section that belong to lower half of cacheline are
  patched to ITS-safe thunk. Typical output looks like below:

  Site 49: function symbol: __x64_sys_restart_syscall+0x1f <0xffffffffbb1509af>
  #     vmlinux: 0xffffffff813509af:    jmp     0xffffffff81f5a8e0
  #     kcore:   0xffffffffbb1509af:    jmpq    *%rax

  #     ITS thunk expected for site 50
  #     PASSED: Found 0xffffffffc02000fc -> jmpq *%rax 

- its_ret_alignment.py - verifies that for addresses in .return_sites
  section that belong to lower half of cacheline are patched to
  its_return_thunk. Typical output looks like below:

  Site 97: function symbol: collect_event+0x48 <0xffffffffbb007f18>

selftests/mm: fix build break when compiling pkey_util.c

2025-05-18T06:26:01+00:00

commit 22adb528621ddc92f887882a658507fbf88a5214 upstream.

Commit 50910acd6f615 ("selftests/mm: use sys_pkey helpers consistently")
added a pkey_util.c to refactor some of the protection_keys functions
accessible by other tests.  But this broken the build in powerpc in two
ways,

pkey-powerpc.h: In function `arch_is_powervm':
pkey-powerpc.h:73:21: error: storage size of `buf' isn't known
   73 |         struct stat buf;
      |                     ^~~
pkey-powerpc.h:75:14: error: implicit declaration of function `stat'; did you mean `strcat'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
   75 |         if ((stat("/sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ibm,partition-name", &buf) == 0) &&
      |              ^~~~
      |              strcat

Since pkey_util.c includes pkeys-helper.h, which in turn includes pkeys-powerpc.h,
stat.h including is missing for "struct stat". This is fixed by adding "sys/stat.h"
in pkeys-powerpc.h

Secondly,

pkey-powerpc.h:55:18: warning: format `%llx' expects argument of type `long long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type `u64' {aka `long unsigned int'} [-Wformat=]
   55 |         dprintf4("%s() changing %016llx to %016llx\n",
      |                  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      |                                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |                                    |
      |                                    u64 {aka long unsigned int}
pkey-helpers.h:63:32: note: in definition of macro `dprintf_level'
   63 |                 sigsafe_printf(args);           \
      |                                ^~~~

These format specifier related warning are removed by adding
"__SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__" to pkeys_utils.c.

selftests/mm: fix a build failure on powerpc

2025-05-18T06:26:01+00:00

commit 8cf6ecb18baac867585fe1cba5dde6dbf3b6d29a upstream.

The compiler is unaware of the size of code generated by the ".rept"
assembler directive.  This results in the compiler emitting branch
instructions where the offset to branch to exceeds the maximum allowed
value, resulting in build failures like the following:

  CC       protection_keys
  /tmp/ccypKWAE.s: Assembler messages:
  /tmp/ccypKWAE.s:2073: Error: operand out of range (0x0000000000020158
  is not between 0xffffffffffff8000 and 0x0000000000007ffc)
  /tmp/ccypKWAE.s:2509: Error: operand out of range (0x0000000000020130
  is not between 0xffffffffffff8000 and 0x0000000000007ffc)

Fix the issue by manually adding nop instructions using the preprocessor.

selftests/mm: compaction_test: support platform with huge mount of memory

2025-05-18T06:26:01+00:00

commit ab00ddd802f80e31fc9639c652d736fe3913feae upstream.

When running mm selftest to verify mm patches, 'compaction_test' case
failed on an x86 server with 1TB memory.  And the root cause is that it
has too much free memory than what the test supports.

The test case tries to allocate 100000 huge pages, which is about 200 GB
for that x86 server, and when it succeeds, it expects it's large than 1/3
of 80% of the free memory in system.  This logic only works for platform
with 750 GB ( 200 / (1/3) / 80% ) or less free memory, and may raise false
alarm for others.

Fix it by changing the fixed page number to self-adjustable number
according to the real number of free memory.

objtool/rust: add one more `noreturn` Rust function for Rust 1.87.0

2025-05-18T06:26:00+00:00

commit 19f5ca461d5fc09bdf93a9f8e4bd78ed3a49dc71 upstream.

Starting with Rust 1.87.0 (expected 2025-05-15), `objtool` may report:

    rust/core.o: warning: objtool: _R..._4core9panicking9panic_fmt() falls
    through to next function _R..._4core9panicking18panic_nounwind_fmt()

    rust/core.o: warning: objtool: _R..._4core9panicking18panic_nounwind_fmt()
    falls through to next function _R..._4core9panicking5panic()

The reason is that `rust_begin_unwind` is now mangled:

    _R..._7___rustc17rust_begin_unwind

Thus add the mangled one to the list so that `objtool` knows it is
actually `noreturn`.

See commit 56d680dd23c3 ("objtool/rust: list `noreturn` Rust functions")
for more details.

Alternatively, we could remove the fixed one in `noreturn.h` and relax
this test to cover both, but it seems best to be strict as long as we can.

objtool: Ignore end-of-section jumps for KCOV/GCOV

2025-05-02T06:02:15+00:00

commit 0d7597749f5a3ac67851d3836635d084df15fb66 upstream.

When KCOV or GCOV is enabled, dead code can be left behind, in which
case objtool silences unreachable and undefined behavior (fallthrough)
warnings.

Fallthrough warnings, and their variant "end of section" warnings, were
silenced with the following commit:

  6b023c784204 ("objtool: Silence more KCOV warnings")

Another variant of a fallthrough warning is a jump to the end of a
function.  If that function happens to be at the end of a section, the
jump destination doesn't actually exist.

Normally that would be a fatal objtool error, but for KCOV/GCOV it's
just another undefined behavior fallthrough.  Silence it like the
others.

Fixes the following warning:

  drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.o: warning: objtool: iommu_dma_sw_msi+0x92: can't find jump dest instruction at .text+0x54d5
