38 hoursmodule: decompress: check return value of module_extend_max_pages()Andrii Kuchmenko
commit 786d2d84416a9a1c1a47b71a68d679d886284be2 upstream. module_extend_max_pages() calls kvrealloc() internally and returns -ENOMEM on allocation failure. The return value is never checked. If the initial allocation fails, info->pages remains NULL and info->max_pages remains 0. Subsequent calls to module_get_next_page() will attempt to dynamically grow the array by calling module_extend_max_pages(info, 0) since info->used_pages is 0. This results in kvrealloc(NULL, 0) returning ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which is treated as a success, leading to a dereference of ZERO_SIZE_PTR and a kernel oops. Fix: add the missing error check after module_extend_max_pages() and return immediately on failure. This matches the pattern used by every other kvrealloc() caller in the module loading path.

38 hoursaudit: fix potential integer overflow in audit_log_n_hex()Ricardo Robaina
commit 65dfde57d1e29ce2b76fc23dd565eccd5c0bc0f0 upstream. The function calculates new_len as len << 1 for hex encoding. This has two overflow risks: the shift itself can overflow when len is large, and the result can be truncated when assigned to new_len (declared as int) from the size_t calculation. Fix by using check_shl_overflow() to catch shift overflow and changing new_len and loop counter i to size_t to prevent truncation.

38 hourstracing: Prevent out-of-bounds read in glob matchingHuihui Huang
commit 0a6070839b1ef276d5b05bedfb787743e140fb17 upstream. String event fields are not necessarily NUL-terminated, so the filter predicate functions (filter_pred_string(), filter_pred_strloc() and filter_pred_strrelloc()) pass the field length to the regex match callbacks, and the length-aware matchers honour it. regex_match_glob() was the exception: it ignored the length and called glob_match(), which scans the string until it hits a NUL byte. Some string fields are not NUL-terminated. One example is the dynamic char array of the xfs_* namespace tracepoints, which is copied without a trailing NUL. For such a field, glob matching reads past the end of the event field, causing a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read in glob_match(), reached via regex_match_glob() and filter_match_preds() from the xfs_lookup tracepoint. Add a length-bounded glob_match_len() and use it from regex_match_glob() so glob matching always stops at the field boundary. The matching loop is factored into a shared helper so glob_match() keeps its behaviour.

38 hoursbpf: Validate BTF repeated field counts before expansionPaul Moses
commit b9452b594fd3aecbfd4aa0a6a1f741330a37dab7 upstream. btf_parse_struct_metas() walks user-supplied BTF during BPF_BTF_LOAD, and btf_repeat_fields() expands repeatable fields from array elements into the fixed BTF_FIELDS_MAX scratch array used by btf_parse_fields(). The remaining-capacity check performs the expanded field count calculation in u32. A malformed BTF can wrap that calculation, causing the check to pass even when the expanded field count exceeds the scratch array capacity. The following memcpy() can then write past the end of the array. Use checked addition and multiplication before copying repeated fields and reject impossible counts.

38 hoursbpf: Restore sysctl new-value from 1 to 0Dawei Feng
commit 2566c3b24219c5b30e35205cba029ff34ff7c78b upstream. Commit 4e63acdff864 ("bpf: Introduce bpf_sysctl_{get,set}_new_value helpers") changed the success return value to 0, but failed to update the corresponding check in __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl(). Since bpf_prog_run_array_cg() now returns 0 on success, the legacy ret == 1 condition is never satisfied. As a result, the modified value is ignored, and bpf_sysctl_set_new_value() fails to replace the write buffer. Fix this by checking for a return value of 0 instead, so cgroup/sysctl programs can correctly replace the pending sysctl buffer. This bug was discovered during a manual code review. Tested via a cgroup/sysctl BPF reproducer overriding writes to a target sysctl. Pre-fix, bpf_sysctl_set_new_value("foo") was silently ignored: the write returned 8192 and the value remained "600". Post-fix, the BPF replacement buffer properly propagates: the write returns 3 and the value updates to "foo".

38 hoursbpf: Reject fragmented frames in devmapZhao Zhang
commit aa496720618f1a6054f1c870bf10b4f6c99bf656 upstream. Devmap broadcast redirects clone the packet for all but the last destination. For native XDP, that clone path copies only the linear xdp_frame data, while fragmented frames keep skb_shared_info in tailroom outside the linear area. Cloning such a frame leaves XDP_FLAGS_HAS_FRAGS set but without valid frag metadata, and the later free path can interpret uninitialized tail data as skb_shared_info, leading to an out-of-bounds access during frame return. Reject fragmented native XDP frames in dev_map_enqueue_clone(). Add the same restriction to the generic XDP clone path in dev_map_redirect_clone(). Generic XDP represents fragmented packets as nonlinear skbs, and rejecting them here keeps clone-based broadcast support aligned between native and generic XDP.

commit 87bd2ad568e15b90d5f7d4bcd70342d05dad649c upstream. In do_cpu_nanosleep(), posix_cpu_timer_create() takes a pid reference via get_pid() and stores it in timer.it.cpu.pid.

38 hourssched/rt: Have RT_PUSH_IPI be default off for non PREEMPT_RTSteven Rostedt
commit dd29c017aed628076e915fe4cdfb5392fd4c5cab upstream. RT migration is done aggressively. When a CPU schedules out a high priority RT task for a lower priority task, it will look to see if there's any RT tasks that are waiting to run on another CPU that is of higher priority than the task this CPU is about to run. If it finds one, it will pull that task over to the CPU and allow it to run there instead. Normally, this pulling is done by looking at the RT overloaded mask (rto) which contains all the CPUs in the scheduler domain with RT tasks that are waiting to run due to a higher priority RT task currently running on their CPU. The CPU that is about to schedule a lower priority task will grab the rq lock of the overloaded CPU and move the RT task from that CPU's runqueue to the local one and schedule the higher priority RT task. This caused issues when a lot of CPUs would schedule a lower priority task at the same time. They would all try to grab the same runqueue lock of the CPU with the overloaded RT tasks. Only the first CPU that got in will get that task. All the others would wait until they got the runqueue lock and see there's nothing to pull and do nothing. On systems with lots of CPUs, this caused a large latency (up to 500us) which is beyond what PREEMPT_RT is to allow. The solution to that was to create an RT_PUSH_IPI logic. When any CPU wanted to pull a task, instead of grabbing the runqueue lock of the overloaded CPU, it would start by sending an IPI to the overloaded CPU, and that IPI handler would have the CPU with the waiting RT task do a push instead. Then that handler would send an IPI to the next CPU with overloaded RT tasks, and so on. Note, after the first CPU starts this process, if another CPU wanted to do a pull, it would see that the process has already begun and would only increment a counter to have the IPIs continue again. The RT_PUSH_IPI solved the latency problem with PREEMPT_RT but could cause a new issue with non PREEMPT_RT. Namely, softirqs run in a threaded context on PREEMPT_RT but they can run in an interrupt context in non-RT. If an IPI lands on a CPU that has just woken up multiple RT tasks and the current CPU is running a non RT or a low priority RT task, instead of doing a push, it would simply do a schedule on that CPU. But if a softirq was also executing on this CPU, the schedule would need to wait until the softirq finished. Until then, the CPU would still be considered overloaded as there are RT tasks still waiting to run on it. A live lock occurred on a workload that was doing heavy networking traffic on a large machine where the softirqs would run 500us out of 750us. And it would also be waking up RT tasks, causing the RT pull logic to be constantly executed. When a softirq triggered on a CPU with RT tasks queued but not running yet, and the other CPUs would see this CPU as being overloaded, they would send an IPI over to it. The CPU would notice that the waiting RT tasks are of higher priority than the currently running task and simply schedule that CPU instead. But because the softirq was executing, before it could schedule, it would receive another IPI to do the same. The amount of IPIs would slow down the currently running softirq so much that before it could return back to task context, it would execute another softirq never allowing the CPU to schedule. This live locked that CPU. As RT_PUSH_IPI was created to help PREEMPT_RT, make it default off if PREEMPT_RT is not enabled.

commit c9a71daaecb2fb1d8c704545cc0b1c920b9bf5d7 upstream.

38 hoursperf/core: Detach event groups during remove_on_execTaeyang Lee
[ Upstream commit 037a3c43edfb597665dd34457cd22b14692f2ba3 ] perf_event_remove_on_exec() removes events by calling perf_event_exit_event(). For top-level events, this removes the event from the context with DETACH_EXIT only. This can leave inconsistent group state when a removed event is a group leader and the group contains siblings without remove_on_exec. If the group was active, the surviving siblings can remain active and attached to the removed leader's sibling list, but are no longer represented by a valid group leader on the PMU context active lists. A later close of the removed leader uses DETACH_GROUP and can promote the still-active siblings from this stale group state. The next schedule-in can then add an already-linked active_list entry again, corrupting the PMU context active list. With DEBUG_LIST enabled, this is caught as a list_add double-add in merge_sched_in(). Fix this by detaching group relationships when remove_on_exec removes an event. This preserves the existing task-exit and revoke behavior, while ensuring surviving siblings are ungrouped before the removed event leaves the context.

commit 82f9cc094975240885c93effbca7f4603f5de1bf upstream. Anders had bisected a crash using PREEMPT_RT with linux-next and isolated it down to commit 894d1b3db41c ("locking/mutex: Remove wakeups from under mutex::wait_lock"), where it seemed the wake_q structure was somehow getting corrupted causing a null pointer traversal. I was able to easily repoduce this with PREEMPT_RT and managed to isolate down that through various call stacks we were actually calling wake_up_q() twice on the same wake_q. I found that in the problematic commit, I had added the wake_up_q() call in task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() around __ww_mutex_add_waiter(), following a similar pattern in __mutex_lock_common(). However, its just wrong. We haven't dropped the lock->wait_lock, so its contrary to the point of the original patch. And it didn't match the __mutex_lock_common() logic of re-initializing the wake_q after calling it midway in the stack. Looking at it now, the wake_up_q() call is incorrect and should just be removed. So drop the erronious logic I had added.

2026-07-04bpf: use kvfree() for replaced sysctl write bufferDawei Feng
commit 4c21b5927d4364bfe7365f2700da5fea0ed0d004 upstream. proc_sys_call_handler() allocates its temporary sysctl buffer with kvzalloc() and passes it to __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl(). Since kvzalloc() may fall back to vmalloc() for large allocations, freeing that buffer with kfree() is wrong and can corrupt memory. Use kvfree() to safely handle both kmalloc and kvzalloc()/vmalloc allocations. The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in v7.1-rc5. Reproduced the bug based on v7.1-rc4 in a QEMU x86_64 guest booted with KASAN and CONFIG_FAILSLAB enabled. To exercise the replacement path, the test tree also included the accompanying fix for the stale ret == 1 check in __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl(). The reproducer confines failslab injections to the proc_sys_call_handler() range, uses stacktrace-depth=32, and injects fail-nth=1 while writing 8191 bytes to /proc/sys/kernel/domainname from a task in the target cgroup.

2026-07-04block: invalidate cached plug timestamp after task switchUsama Arif
commit fad156c2af227f42ca796cbb20ddc354a6dd9932 upstream. blk_time_get_ns() caches ktime_get_ns() in current->plug->cur_ktime and marks the task with PF_BLOCK_TS. That cache is only valid while the task keeps running; if the task is switched out, wall-clock time advances and the cached value must not be reused when the task runs again. The existing invalidation covers explicit plug flushes through __blk_flush_plug(), and the schedule() / rtmutex paths through sched_update_worker(). It does not cover in-kernel preemption paths such as preempt_schedule(), preempt_schedule_notrace(), and preempt_schedule_irq(), which enter __schedule(SM_PREEMPT) directly and return without calling sched_update_worker(). As a result, a task preempted while holding a plug with PF_BLOCK_TS set can reuse a stale plug->cur_ktime after it is scheduled back in. blk-iocost then consumes that stale timestamp through ioc_now(), producing stale vnow values for throttle decisions, and through ioc_rqos_done(), inflating on-queue time and feeding false missed-QoS samples into vrate adjustment.

2026-07-04kernel/fork: clear PF_BLOCK_TS in copy_process()Usama Arif
commit fd38b75c4b43295b10d69772a46d1c74dbd6fc81 upstream. PF_BLOCK_TS is only set in blk_time_get_ns() when current->plug is non-NULL, and blk_finish_plug() clears it via __blk_flush_plug() before NULLing the plug pointer. copy_process() breaks the invariant by inheriting PF_BLOCK_TS from the parent while resetting the child's plug to NULL. Clear PF_BLOCK_TS alongside that assignment so callers can rely on "PF_BLOCK_TS set implies current->plug != NULL" and dereference current->plug unguarded.

2026-07-04ftrace: Check against is_kernel_text() instead of kaslr_offset()Steven Rostedt
[ Upstream commit da0f622b344be769ed61e7c1caf95cd0cdb47964 ] As kaslr_offset() is architecture dependent and also may not be defined by all architectures, when zeroing out unused weak functions, do not check against kaslr_offset(), but instead check if the address is within the kernel text sections. If KASLR added a shift to the zeroed out function, it would still not be located in the kernel text. This is a more robust way to test if the text is valid or not.

[ Upstream commit be55257fab181b93af38f8c4b1b3cb453a78d742 ] The pg_remaining calculation in ftrace_process_locs() assumes that ENTRIES_PER_PAGE multiplied by 2^order equals the actual capacity of the allocated page group. However, ENTRIES_PER_PAGE is PAGE_SIZE / ENTRY_SIZE (integer division). When PAGE_SIZE is not a multiple of ENTRY_SIZE (e.g. 4096 / 24 = 170 with remainder 16), high-order allocations (like 256 pages) have significantly more capacity than 256 * 170. This leads to pg_remaining being underestimated, which in turn makes skip (derived from skipped - pg_remaining) larger than expected, causing the WARN(skip != remaining) to trigger. Extra allocated pages for ftrace: 2 with 654 skipped WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:7295 ftrace_process_locs+0x5bf/0x5e0 A similar problem in ftrace_allocate_records() can result in allocating too many pages.

2026-07-04ftrace: Have ftrace pages output reflect freed pagesSteven Rostedt
[ Upstream commit 264143c4e54412095f4b615e65bf736fc3c60af0 ] The amount of memory that ftrace uses to save the descriptors to manage the functions it can trace is shown at output. But if there are a lot of functions that are skipped because they were weak or the architecture added holes into the tables, then the extra pages that were allocated are freed. But these freed pages are not reflected in the numbers shown, and they can even be inconsistent with what is reported: ftrace: allocating 57482 entries in 225 pages ftrace: allocated 224 pages with 3 groups The above shows the number of original entries that are in the mcount_loc section and the pages needed to save them (225), but the second output reflects the number of pages that were actually used. The two should be consistent as: ftrace: allocating 56739 entries in 224 pages ftrace: allocated 224 pages with 3 groups The above also shows the accurate number of entires that were actually stored and does not include the entries that were removed.

2026-07-04scripts/sorttable: Zero out weak functions in mcount_loc tableSteven Rostedt
[ Upstream commit ef378c3b8233855497a414b9d67bf22592c928a4 ] When a function is annotated as "weak" and is overridden, the code is not removed. If it is traced, the fentry/mcount location in the weak function will be referenced by the "__mcount_loc" section. This will then be added to the available_filter_functions list. Since only the address of the functions are listed, to find the name to show, a search of kallsyms is used. Since kallsyms will return the function by simply finding the function that the address is after but before the next function, an address of a weak function will show up as the function before it. This is because kallsyms does not save names of weak functions. This has caused issues in the past, as now the traced weak function will be listed in available_filter_functions with the name of the function before it. At best, this will cause the previous function's name to be listed twice. At worse, if the previous function was marked notrace, it will now show up as a function that can be traced. Note that it only shows up that it can be traced but will not be if enabled, which causes confusion. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220412094923.0abe90955e5db486b7bca279@kernel.org/ The commit b39181f7c6907 ("ftrace: Add FTRACE_MCOUNT_MAX_OFFSET to avoid adding weak function") was a workaround to this by checking the function address before printing its name. If the address was too far from the function given by the name then instead of printing the name it would print: __ftrace_invalid_address___<invalid-offset> The real issue is that these invalid addresses are listed in the ftrace table look up which available_filter_functions is derived from. A place holder must be listed in that file because set_ftrace_filter may take a series of indexes into that file instead of names to be able to do O(1) lookups to enable filtering (many tools use this method). Even if kallsyms saved the size of the function, it does not remove the need of having these place holders. The real solution is to not add a weak function into the ftrace table in the first place. To solve this, the sorttable.c code that sorts the mcount regions during the build is modified to take a "nm -S vmlinux" input, sort it, and any function listed in the mcount_loc section that is not within a boundary of the function list given by nm is considered a weak function and is zeroed out. Note, this does not mean they will remain zero when booting as KASLR will still shift those addresses. To handle this, the entries in the mcount_loc section will be ignored if they are zero or match the kaslr_offset() value.

PF_EXITING is set by exit_signals() at the very top of do_exit(), before exit_mm() and exit_files() run.

commit d486b4934a8e504376b85cdb3766f306d57aff5b upstream. tmigr_handle_remote_cpu() skips timer_expire_remote() when cpu == smp_processor_id(), assuming the local softirq path already handled this CPU's timers. This assumption is wrong because jiffies can advance after the handling of the CPU's global timers in run_timer_base(BASE_GLOBAL) and before tmigr_handle_remote() evaluates the expiry times. As a consequence a timer which expires after the CPU local timer wheel advanced and becomes expired in the remote handling is ignored and the callback is never invoked and removed from the timer wheel. What's worse is that fetch_next_timer_interrupt_remote() keeps reporting it as expired, and the event is re-queued with expires == now on each iteration. The goto-again loop spins indefinitely. Fix this by calling timer_expire_remote() unconditionally. That's minimal overhead for the common case as __run_timer_base() returns immediately if there is nothing to expire in the local wheel.

This causes dma-debug to track the physical address of the very first scatterlist entry for all subsequent entries in the list. Fix this by passing the correct loop iterator 's' to sg_phys() Fixes: 9d4f645a1fd49ee ("dma-debug: store a phys_addr_t in struct dma_debug_entry") Signed-off-by: Li RongQing <lirongqing@baidu.com> Signed-off-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260603123708.1665-1-lirongqing@baidu.com Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
2026-06-19ima: kexec: move IMA log copy from kexec load to executeSteven Chen
[ Upstream commit 9f0ec4b16f2b41d663f688a8012e9e52b2657eba ] The IMA log is currently copied to the new kernel during kexec 'load' using ima_dump_measurement_list(). However, the IMA measurement list copied at kexec 'load' may result in loss of IMA measurements records that only occurred after the kexec 'load'. Move the IMA measurement list log copy from kexec 'load' to 'execute' Make the kexec_segment_size variable a local static variable within the file, so it can be accessed during both kexec 'load' and 'execute'. Define kexec_post_load() as a wrapper for calling ima_kexec_post_load() and machine_kexec_post_load(). Replace the existing direct call to machine_kexec_post_load() with kexec_post_load(). When there is insufficient memory to copy all the measurement logs, copy as much of the measurement list as possible.

2026-06-19ima: kexec: skip IMA segment validation after kexec soft rebootSteven Chen
[ Upstream commit 9ee8888a80fe2bd20ce929ffbc1dedd57607a778 ] Currently, the function kexec_calculate_store_digests() calculates and stores the digest of the segment during the kexec_file_load syscall, where the IMA segment is also allocated. Later, the IMA segment will be updated with the measurement log at the kexec execute stage when a kexec reboot is initiated. Therefore, the digests should be updated for the IMA segment in the normal case. The problem is that the content of memory segments carried over to the new kernel during the kexec systemcall can be changed at kexec 'execute' stage, but the size and the location of the memory segments cannot be changed at kexec 'execute' stage. To address this, skip the calculation and storage of the digest for the IMA segment in kexec_calculate_store_digests() so that it is not added to the purgatory_sha_regions. With this change, the IMA segment is not included in the digest calculation, storage, and verification.

2026-06-19signal: clear JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK for caller in zap_other_threads()Aleksandr Nogikh
[ Upstream commit 90918794a4e2c3b440f8fcf3847765a8b1d81b25 ] When a multi-threaded process receives a stop signal (e.g., SIGSTOP), do_signal_stop() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING and JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME on all threads and sets signal->group_stop_count to the number of threads. If one of the threads concurrently calls execve(), de_thread() invokes zap_other_threads() to kill all other threads. zap_other_threads() aborts the pending group stop by resetting signal->group_stop_count to 0 and clears the JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK for all other threads. However, it fails to clear the job control flags for the calling thread. When execve() completes, the calling thread returns to user mode and checks for pending signals. Seeing the stale JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING flag, it calls do_signal_stop(), which invokes task_participate_group_stop(). Since JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME is still set, it attempts to decrement the already-zero signal->group_stop_count, triggering a warning: sig->group_stop_count == 0 WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 6475 at kernel/signal.c:373 task_participate_group_stop+0x215/0x2d0 Call Trace: <TASK> do_signal_stop+0x3be/0x5c0 kernel/signal.c:2619 get_signal+0xa8c/0x1330 kernel/signal.c:2884 arch_do_signal_or_restart+0xbc/0x840 arch/x86/kernel/signal.c:337 exit_to_user_mode_loop+0x8c/0x4d0 kernel/entry/common.c:98 do_syscall_64+0x33e/0xf80 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:100 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f </TASK> Fix this race condition by clearing the JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK for the calling thread in zap_other_threads(), ensuring it does not retain any stale job control state after the thread group is destroyed.

[ Upstream commit a494d3c8d5392bcdff83c2a593df0c160ff9f322 ] On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded. To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

2026-06-01irq_work: Fix use-after-free in irq_work_single() on PREEMPT_RTJiayuan Chen
[ Upstream commit 91840be8f710370607f949a627e070896faeddb8 ] On PREEMPT_RT, non-HARD irq_work runs in per-CPU kthreads via run_irq_workd(), so irq_work_sync() uses rcuwait() to wait for BUSY==0. After irq_work_single() clears BUSY via atomic_cmpxchg(), it still dereferences @work for irq_work_is_hard() and rcuwait_wake_up(). An irq_work_sync() caller on another CPU that enters after BUSY is cleared can observe BUSY==0 immediately, return, and free the work before those accesses complete — causing a use-after-free. Fix this by wrapping run_irq_workd() in guard(rcu)() so that the entire irq_work_single() execution is within an RCU read-side critical section. Then add synchronize_rcu() in irq_work_sync() after rcuwait_wait_event() to ensure the caller waits for the RCU grace period before returning, preventing premature frees.

2026-06-01ring-buffer: Fix reporting of missed events in iteratorSteven Rostedt
commit a254b6d13b0edd6272926674d2afc46d46e496b7 upstream. When tracing is active while reading the trace file, if the iterator reading the buffer detects that the writer has passed the iterator head, it will reset and set a "missed events" flag. This flag is passed to the output processing to show the user that events were missed: CPU:4 [LOST EVENTS] The problem is that the flag is reset after it is checked in ring_buffer_iter_dropped(). But the "trace" file iterates over all the CPU ring buffers and it will check if they are dropped when figuring out which buffer to print next. This prematurely clears the missed_events flag if the CPU buffer with the missed events is not the one that is printed next. On the iteration where the CPU buffer with the missed events is printed, the check if it had missed events would return false and the output does not show that events were missed. Do not reset the missed_events flag when checking if there were missed events, but instead clear it when moving the iterator head to the next event.

2026-06-01sched/deadline: Fix dl_server behaviourPeter Zijlstra
commit a3a70caf7906708bf9bbc80018752a6b36543808 upstream. John reported undesirable behaviour with the dl_server since commit: cccb45d7c4295 ("sched/deadline: Less agressive dl_server handling"). When starving fair tasks on purpose (starting spinning FIFO tasks), his fair workload, which often goes (briefly) idle, would delay fair invocations for a second, running one invocation per second was both unexpected and terribly slow. The reason this happens is that when dl_se->server_pick_task() returns NULL, indicating no runnable tasks, it would yield, pushing any later jobs out a whole period (1 second). Instead simply stop the server. This should restore behaviour in that a later wakeup (which restarts the server) will be able to continue running (subject to the CBS wakeup rules). Notably, this does not re-introduce the behaviour cccb45d7c4295 set out to solve, any start/stop cycle is naturally throttled by the timer period (no active cancel).

2026-06-01sched/deadline: Fix dl_server getting stuckPeter Zijlstra
commit 4ae8d9aa9f9dc7137ea5e564d79c5aa5af1bc45c upstream. John found it was easy to hit lockup warnings when running locktorture on a 2 CPU VM, which he bisected down to: commit cccb45d7c429 ("sched/deadline: Less agressive dl_server handling"). While debugging it seems there is a chance where we end up with the dl_server dequeued, with dl_se->dl_server_active. This causes dl_server_start() to return without enqueueing the dl_server, thus it fails to run when RT tasks starve the cpu. When this happens, dl_server_timer() catches the '!dl_se->server_has_tasks(dl_se)' case, which then calls replenish_dl_entity() and dl_server_stopped() and finally return HRTIMER_NO_RESTART. This ends in no new timer and also no enqueue, leaving the dl_server 'dead', allowing starvation. What should have happened is for the bandwidth timer to start the zero-laxity timer, which in turn would enqueue the dl_server and cause dl_se->server_pick_task() to be called -- which will stop the dl_server if no fair tasks are observed for a whole period. IOW, it is totally irrelevant if there are fair tasks at the moment of bandwidth refresh. This removes all dl_se->server_has_tasks() users, so remove the whole thing.

2026-06-01sched/deadline: Fix dl_server_stopped()Huacai Chen
commit 4717432dfd99bbd015b6782adca216c6f9340038 upstream. Commit cccb45d7c429 ("sched/deadline: Less agressive dl_server handling") introduces dl_server_stopped(). But it is obvious that dl_server_stopped() should return true if dl_se->dl_server_active is 0.

2026-06-01sched/deadline: Less agressive dl_server handlingPeter Zijlstra
commit cccb45d7c4295bbfeba616582d0249f2d21e6df5 upstream. Chris reported that commit 5f6bd380c7bd ("sched/rt: Remove default bandwidth control") caused a significant dip in his favourite benchmark of the day. Simply disabling dl_server cured things. His workload hammers the 0->1, 1->0 transitions, and the dl_server_{start,stop}() overhead kills it -- fairly obviously a bad idea in hind sight and all that. Change things around to only disable the dl_server when there has not been a fair task around for a whole period. Since the default period is 1 second, this ensures the benchmark never trips this, overhead gone.

2026-05-23sched_ext: Guard scx_dsq_move() against NULL kit->dsq after failed iter_newTejun Heo
[ Upstream commit 4fda9f0e7c950da4fe03cedeb2ac818edf5d03e9 ] bpf_iter_scx_dsq_new() clears kit->dsq on failure and bpf_iter_scx_dsq_{next,destroy}() guard against that. scx_dsq_move() doesn't - it dereferences kit->dsq immediately, so a BPF program that calls scx_bpf_dsq_move[_vtime]() after a failed iter_new oopses the kernel. Return false if kit->dsq is NULL.
