46 hourstimekeeping: Register default clocksource before taking tk_core.lockMikhail Gavrilov
commit 8fa30821180a9a19e78e9f4df1c0ba710252801e upstream. Commit f24df84cbe05 ("time/jiffies: Register jiffies clocksource before usage") moved the jiffies clocksource registration into clocksource_default_clock(), so that it is registered lazily on the first call. __clocksource_register() acquires clocksource_mutex, but the first caller is timekeeping_init(), which invokes clocksource_default_clock() while holding tk_core.lock, a raw spinlock. Acquiring a sleeping mutex while holding a raw spinlock is invalid. The default clocksource only has to be registered before tk_setup_internals() consumes its mult/shift/maxadj. Neither clocksource_default_clock(), the ->enable() callback, nor the registration itself need tk_core.lock, so fetch and enable the clock before acquiring the lock. This preserves the "register before usage" ordering while keeping clocksource_mutex out of the raw spinlock section. clocksource_default_clock() has a second caller, clocksource_done_booting(), which invokes it with clocksource_mutex already held. That path avoids a recursive lock because timekeeping_init() has already run and set cs_jiffies_registered, so the registration is skipped there. This change does not alter that; it only fixes the invalid wait context in timekeeping_init().

46 hourssched/fair: Only update stats for allowed CPUs when looking for dst groupAdam Li
commit 82d6e01a0699800efd8b048eb584c907ccb47b7a upstream. Load imbalance is observed when the workload frequently forks new threads. Due to CPU affinity, the workload can run on CPU 0-7 in the first group, and only on CPU 8-11 in the second group. CPU 12-15 are always idle. { 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 } {8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15} * * * * * * * * * * * * When looking for dst group for newly forked threads, in many times update_sg_wakeup_stats() reports the second group has more idle CPUs than the first group. The scheduler thinks the second group is less busy. Then it selects least busy CPUs among CPU 8-11. Therefore CPU 8-11 can be crowded with newly forked threads, at the same time CPU 0-7 can be idle. A task may not use all the CPUs in a schedule group due to CPU affinity. Only update schedule group statistics for allowed CPUs.

46 hoursaudit: fix removal of dangling executable rulesRicardo Robaina
commit 888a0396e154524f4027f27da84bdbec9eb68916 upstream. When an audited executable is deleted from the disk, its dentry becomes negative. Any later attempt to delete the associated audit rule will lead to audit_alloc_mark() encountering this negative dentry and immediately aborting, returning -ENOENT. This early abort prevents the subsystem from allocating the temporary fsnotify mark needed to construct the search key, meaning the kernel cannot find the existing rule in its own lists to delete it. This leaves a dangling rule in memory, resulting in the following error while attempting to delete the rule: # ./audit-dupe-exe-deadlock.sh No rules Error deleting rule (No such file or directory) There was an error while processing parameters # auditctl -l -a always,exit -S all -F exe=/tmp/file -F path=/tmp/file -F key=dr # auditctl -D Error deleting rule (No such file or directory) There was an error while processing parameters This patch fixes this issue by removing the d_really_is_negative() check. By doing so, a dummy mark can be successfully generated for the deleted path, which allows the audit subsystem to properly match and flush the dangling rule.

46 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.

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.

46 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.

46 hoursperf/aux: Fix page UAF in map_range()Lee Jia Jie
commit 5948aaf64f81f217a25dcc2bf6c0779bca19566c upstream. map_range() reads rb->aux_pages[], rb->aux_nr_pages and rb->aux_pgoff via perf_mmap_to_page() while holding only event->mmap_mutex. Those fields are serialized by rb->aux_mutex, and mmap_mutex is per event. Thus, two events sharing one rb via PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT can race rb_alloc_aux() with map_range(), leading to a page-UAF scenario as follows: CPU 0 CPU 1 ===== ===== rb_alloc_aux() map_range() [1]: allocate rb->aux_pages[0] [2]: rb->aux_nr_pages++ [3]: perf_mmap_to_page() returns rb->aux_pages[0] [4]: map it as VM_PFNMAP [5]: rb->aux_pgoff = 1 munmap the page [6]: free rb->aux_pages[0] Pages mapped as VM_PFNMAP have no refcount protection, so CPU 1 holds a mapping to a freed physical frame.

46 hoursbpf: Prefer dirty packs for eBPF allocationsPawan Gupta
commit b72e29e0f7ee329d89f86db8700c8ea99b4a370a upstream. The pack allocator only flushes predictors when reusing a dirty pack for cBPF, eBPF allocations never trigger a flush. Currently, eBPF picks the first free pack, which could be a clean pack. As an optimization, leaving a clean pack for cBPF can avoid flushes. Prefer dirty packs for eBPF and keep clean packs free for cBPF. This mirrors the existing cBPF preference for clean packs: each program kind prefers the pack that avoids an extra flush, and falls back to the other kind only when no preferred pack has room. eBPF reuse of a dirty pack is harmless since eBPF being privileged does not flush.

46 hoursbpf: Prefer packs that won't trigger an IBPB flush on allocationPawan Gupta
commit a9b1f19a6a673ba06820898d0f1ad02883ea1639 upstream. Currently BPF pack allocator picks the chunks from the first available pack. While this is okay, it naturally leads to more frequent flushes when there are multiple packs in the system that weren't used since the last flush. As an optimization prefer allocating the new programs from packs that are unused since last flush. When all packs are dirty, allocation forces a flush and marks all packs clean. Below are some future optimizations ideas: 1. Currently, the "dirty" tracking is only done at the pack-level. Flush frequency can further be reduced with chunk-level tracking. This requires a new bitmap per-pack to track the dirty state. 2. IBPB flush is done on all CPUs, even if only a single CPU ran the BPF program. On a system with hundreds of CPUs this could be a major bottleneck forcing hundreds of IPIs to deliver the flush. The solution is to track the CPUs where a BPF program ran, and issue IBPB only on those CPUs. 3. Avoid IBPB when flush is already done at other sources (e.g. context switch).

commit a23c1c5396a91680703360d1ee28a44657c503c4 upstream. bpf_prog_pack_alloc() issues IBPB on all CPUs on every cBPF allocation, even when reusing chunks from an existing pack where no new memory was touched since the last IBPB. Since IBPB on all CPUs is heavy, Dave Hansen suggested to track allocation since last IBPB, and only issue IBPB at reuse for the chunks that have not seen an IBPB since they were last freed. Track per-pack whether an IBPB is needed via arch_flush_needed. Set it when allocating a chunk, reset on IBPB flush. On reuse, conditionally issue the flush. Since IBPB invalidates all BTB entries, clear the flag on all packs after flushing.

commit 0bb99f2cfaae6822d734d69722de30af823efdf3 upstream. Currently predictor flush on memory reuse is done for all BPF JIT allocations, but only cBPF programs can be loaded by an unprivileged user. eBPF is privileged by default, and flushing predictors for all CPUs on every eBPF reuse penalizes the common case for no security benefit. eBPF allocations can be frequent on busy systems, only flush predictors for cBPF programs. Trampoline and dispatcher allocations also skip the flush as they are eBPF-only.

46 hoursbpf: Support for hardening against JIT sprayingPawan Gupta
commit 96cce16e26dd02a8678f1e87f88a4b5cdb63b995 upstream. The BPF JIT allocator packs many small programs into larger executable allocations and reuses space within those allocations as programs are loaded and freed. When fresh code is written into space that a previous program occupied, an indirect jump into the new program can reuse a branch prediction left behind by the old one. Flush the indirect branch predictors before reusing JIT memory so that indirect jumps into a newly written program don't reuse predictions from an old program that occupied the same space. Introduce bpf_arch_pred_flush_enabled static key and bpf_arch_pred_flush static call for flushing the branch predictors on JIT memory reuse. Architectures that need a flush, can update it to a predictor flush function. By default, its a NOP and does not emit any CALL. Allocations larger than a pack are not covered by this flush. That is safe because cBPF programs (the unprivileged attack surface) are bounded well below a pack size. Issue a warning if this assumption is ever violated while the flush is active.

46 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".

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.

46 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.

46 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.

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. Under that setup, fail-nth=1 triggered the fault: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffeb0200024d48 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: Oops: 0000 SMP KASAN NOPTI CPU: 2 UID: 0 PID: 209 Comm: repro_proc_sys_ Not tainted 7.1.0-rc4-00686-g97625979a5d4 PREEMPT(lazy) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.15.0-1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:kfree+0x6e/0x510 ...

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. Move the schedule-side invalidation to finish_task_switch(), which runs for the scheduled-in task after every actual context switch regardless of which schedule entry point was used. Keep __blk_flush_plug() as the explicit flush/finish-plug invalidation path, and remove only the PF_BLOCK_TS handling from sched_update_worker().

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.

This api here leans on on the very same check and so inherits the fix. But there is no good reason to let it succeed at all once the target has entered do_exit(). PF_EXITING is set by exit_signals() at the very top of do_exit(), before exit_mm() and exit_files() run.

2026-06-19timers/migration: Fix livelock in tmigr_handle_remote_up()Amit Matityahu
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.

[ 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().

[ Upstream commit 576ec047d20b368b43c4d5db98c4f2e0f3c101ec ] hist_field_name() returns "" everywhere except the fully-qualified VAR_REF/EXPR case, where snprintf() truncation returns NULL early and bypasses the bottom NULL->"" guard. Callers don't expect NULL: strcat(expr, hist_field_name(field, 0)) at trace_events_hist.c:1758 and the strcmp() in the sort-key match loop at :4804 both deref it. system and event_name are bounded by MAX_EVENT_NAME_LEN, but the field name on a VAR_REF is kstrdup'd from a histogram variable name parsed out of the trigger string and has no length cap, so a long enough var name in a fully qualified reference can reach the truncation path. Keep the length check but leave field_name as "" on overflow.

Commit 3309b63a2281 ("cgroup: rstat: use LOCK CMPXCHG in css_rstat_updated") later replaced this_cpu_cmpxchg() with plain try_cmpxchg() to fix cross-CPU lockless-list corruption, but left the NMI guard untouched. After that switch, css_rstat_updated() no longer performs any this_cpu_*() RMW operations and only relies on the arch having NMI-safe cmpxchg, so ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS is no longer required in the guard. Relax the guard accordingly so that archs which have HAVE_NMI and ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG but not ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS (e.g. sparc, powerpc on PPC64/BOOK3S) can benefit from the existing CONFIG_MEMCG_NMI_SAFETY_REQUIRES_ATOMIC path. Without this, the css is never queued in NMI on those archs, and the atomics staged by account_{slab,kmem}_nmi_safe() are not drained by flush_nmi_stats().

2026-06-01dma-mapping: move dma_map_resource() sanity check into debug codeJianpeng Chang
[ Upstream commit af0c3f05866237f7592219bfe05387bc3bfc99b5 ] dma_map_resource() uses pfn_valid() to ensure the range is not RAM. However, pfn_valid() only checks for availability of the memory map for a PFN but it does not ensure that the PFN is actually backed by RAM. On ARM64 with SPARSEMEM (128MB section granularity), MMIO addresses that share a section with RAM will falsely trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE and cause dma_map_resource() to return DMA_MAPPING_ERROR. This causes a WARNING on Raspberry Pi 4 during spi_bcm2835 probe because the SPI FIFO register (0xfe204004) falls in the same sparsemem section as the end of RAM (0xf8000000-0xfbffffff), both in section 31 (0xf8000000-0xffffffff). Move the sanity check from dma_map_resource() into debug_dma_map_phys() and replace the unreliable pfn_valid() with pfn_valid() && !PageReserved(), which correctly identifies actual usable RAM without false positives for MMIO regions that happen to have struct pages. Since dma_map_resource() is dma_map_phys(DMA_ATTR_MMIO), the check applies equally to both APIs. Any non-reserved page represents kernel memory to a sufficient degree that using DMA_ATTR_MMIO on it is almost certainly wrong and risks breaking coherency on non-coherent platforms. ZONE_DEVICE pages used for PCI P2P DMA (MEMORY_DEVICE_PCI_P2PDMA) have PageReserved set, so they will not trigger a false positive. The check no longer blocks the mapping and uses err_printk() to integrate with dma-debug filtering.

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.

Thus there can be use-after-free if the fprobe is released right after unregistering. This can be happened on fprobe event and sample module code. To fix this issue, add synchronize_rcu() in unregister_fprobe(). Note that BPF is OK because fprobe is used as a part of bpf_kprobe_multi_link. This unregisters its fprobe in bpf_kprobe_multi_link_release() and it is deallocated via bpf_kprobe_multi_link_dealloc(), which is invoked from bpf_link_defer_dealloc_rcu_gp() RCU callback. For BPF, this also introduced unregister_fprobe_async() which does NOT wait for RCU grace priod.

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.

[ Upstream commit 0ac0058a74ac5765c7ce09ea630f4fdeaf4d80fa ] Commit 2c67dc457bc6 ("tracing: fprobe: optimization for entry only case") introduced a different ftrace_ops for entry-only fprobes. However, when unregistering an fprobe, the kernel only checks if another fprobe exists at the same address, without checking which type of fprobe it is. If different fprobes are registered at the same address, the same address will be registered in both fgraph_ops and ftrace_ops, but only one of them will be deleted when unregistering. (the one removed first will not be deleted from the ops). This results in junk entries remaining in either fgraph_ops or ftrace_ops. For example: ======= cd /sys/kernel/tracing # 'Add entry and exit events on the same place' echo 'f:event1 vfs_read' >> dynamic_events echo 'f:event2 vfs_read%return' >> dynamic_events # 'Enable both of them' echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable cat enabled_functions vfs_read (2) ->arch_ftrace_ops_list_func+0x0/0x210 # 'Disable and remove exit event' echo 0 > events/fprobes/event2/enable echo -:event2 >> dynamic_events # 'Disable and remove all events' echo 0 > events/fprobes/enable echo > dynamic_events # 'Add another event' echo 'f:event3 vfs_open%return' > dynamic_events cat dynamic_events f:fprobes/event3 vfs_open%return echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable cat enabled_functions vfs_open (1) tramp: 0xffffffffa0001000 (ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60) ->ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60 subops: {ent:fprobe_fgraph_entry+0x0/0x620 ret:fprobe_return+0x0/0x150} vfs_read (1) tramp: 0xffffffffa0001000 (ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60) ->ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60 subops: {ent:fprobe_fgraph_entry+0x0/0x620 ret:fprobe_return+0x0/0x150} ======= As you can see, an entry for the vfs_read remains.
