2026-03-10bpf: Fix constant blinding for PROBE_MEM32 storesSachin Kumar
BPF_ST | BPF_PROBE_MEM32 immediate stores are not handled by bpf_jit_blind_insn(), allowing user-controlled 32-bit immediates to survive unblinded into JIT-compiled native code when bpf_jit_harden >= 1. The root cause is that convert_ctx_accesses() rewrites BPF_ST|BPF_MEM to BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 for arena pointer stores during verification, before bpf_jit_blind_constants() runs during JIT compilation. The blinding switch only matches BPF_ST|BPF_MEM (mode 0x60), not BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 (mode 0xa0). The instruction falls through unblinded. Add BPF_ST|BPF_PROBE_MEM32 cases to bpf_jit_blind_insn() alongside the existing BPF_ST|BPF_MEM cases. The blinding transformation is identical: load the blinded immediate into BPF_REG_AX via mov+xor, then convert the immediate store to a register store (BPF_STX). The rewritten STX instruction must preserve the BPF_PROBE_MEM32 mode so the architecture JIT emits the correct arena addressing (R12-based on x86-64). Cannot use the BPF_STX_MEM() macro here because it hardcodes BPF_MEM mode; construct the instruction directly instead.

2026-03-10bpf: Reset register ID for BPF_END value trackingYazhou Tang
When a register undergoes a BPF_END (byte swap) operation, its scalar value is mutated in-place. If this register previously shared a scalar ID with another register (e.g., after an `r1 = r0` assignment), this tie must be broken. Currently, the verifier misses resetting `dst_reg->id` to 0 for BPF_END. Consequently, if a conditional jump checks the swapped register, the verifier incorrectly propagates the learned bounds to the linked register, leading to false confidence in the linked register's value and potentially allowing out-of-bounds memory accesses. Fix this by explicitly resetting `dst_reg->id` to 0 in the BPF_END case to break the scalar tie, similar to how BPF_NEG handles it via `__mark_reg_known`. Fixes: 9d2119984224 ("bpf: Add bitwise tracking for BPF_END") Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/AMBPR06MB108683CFEB1CB8D9E02FC95ECF17EA@AMBPR06MB10868.eurprd06.prod.outlook.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/4be25f7442a52244d0dd1abb47bc6750e57984c9.camel@gmail.com/ Reported-by: Guillaume Laporte <glapt.pro@outlook.com> Co-developed-by: Tianci Cao <ziye@zju.edu.cn> Signed-off-by: Tianci Cao <ziye@zju.edu.cn> Co-developed-by: Shenghao Yuan <shenghaoyuan0928@163.com> Signed-off-by: Shenghao Yuan <shenghaoyuan0928@163.com> Signed-off-by: Yazhou Tang <tangyazhou518@outlook.com> Acked-by: Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260304083228.142016-2-tangyazhou@zju.edu.cn Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
2026-03-10sched_ext: Reject sub-sched attachment to a disabled parentTejun Heo
scx_claim_exit() propagates exits to descendants under scx_sched_lock. A sub-sched being attached concurrently could be missed if it links after the propagation. Check the parent's exit_kind in scx_link_sched() under scx_sched_lock to interlock against scx_claim_exit() - either the parent sees the child in its iteration or the child sees the parent's non-NONE exit_kind and fails attachment.

2026-03-10sched_ext: Fix scx_sched_lock / rq lock orderingTejun Heo
There are two sites that nest rq lock inside scx_sched_lock: - scx_bypass() takes scx_sched_lock then rq lock per CPU to propagate per-cpu bypass flags and re-enqueue tasks. - sysrq_handle_sched_ext_dump() takes scx_sched_lock to iterate all scheds, scx_dump_state() then takes rq lock per CPU for dump. And scx_claim_exit() takes scx_sched_lock to propagate exits to descendants. It can be reached from scx_tick(), BPF kfuncs, and many other paths with rq lock already held, creating the reverse ordering: rq lock -> scx_sched_lock vs. scx_sched_lock -> rq lock Fix by flipping scx_bypass() to take rq lock first, and dropping scx_sched_lock from sysrq_handle_sched_ext_dump() as scx_sched_all is already RCU-traversable and scx_dump_lock now prevents dumping a dead sched. This makes the consistent ordering rq lock -> scx_sched_lock.

2026-03-10sched_ext: Always bounce scx_disable() through irq_workTejun Heo
scx_disable() directly called kthread_queue_work() which can acquire worker->lock, pi_lock and rq->__lock. This made scx_disable() unsafe to call while holding locks that conflict with this chain - in particular, scx_claim_exit() calls scx_disable() for each descendant while holding scx_sched_lock, which nests inside rq->__lock in scx_bypass(). The error path (scx_vexit()) was already bouncing through irq_work to avoid this issue. Generalize the pattern to all scx_disable() calls by always going through irq_work. irq_work_queue() is lockless and safe to call from any context, and the actual kthread_queue_work() call happens in the irq_work handler outside any locks. Rename error_irq_work to disable_irq_work to reflect the broader usage. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Andrea Righi <arighi@nvidia.com>

2026-03-10workqueue: devres: Add device-managed allocate workqueueKrzysztof Kozlowski
Add a Resource-managed version of alloc_workqueue() to fix common problem of drivers mixing devm() calls with destroy_workqueue. Such naive and discouraged driver approach leads to difficult to debug bugs when the driver: 1. Allocates workqueue in standard way and destroys it in driver remove() callback, 2. Sets work struct with devm_work_autocancel(), 3. Registers interrupt handler with devm_request_threaded_irq(). Which leads to following unbind/removal path: 1. destroy_workqueue() via driver remove(), Any interrupt coming now would still execute the interrupt handler, which queues work on destroyed workqueue. 2. devm_irq_release(), 3. devm_work_drop() -> cancel_work_sync() on destroyed workqueue. devm_alloc_workqueue() has two benefits: 1. Solves above problem of mix-and-match devres and non-devres code in driver, 2. Simplify any sane drivers which were correctly using alloc_workqueue() + devm_add_action_or_reset().

2026-03-10printk: Fix _DESCS_COUNT type for 64-bit systemsfeng.zhou
The _DESCS_COUNT macro currently uses 1U (32-bit unsigned) instead of 1UL (unsigned long), which breaks the intended overflow testing design on 64-bit systems. Problem Analysis: ---------------- The printk_ringbuffer uses a deliberate design choice to initialize descriptor IDs near the maximum 62-bit value to trigger overflow early in the system's lifetime. This is documented in printk_ringbuffer.h: "initial values are chosen that map to the correct initial array indexes, but will result in overflows soon." The DESC0_ID macro calculates: DESC0_ID(ct_bits) = DESC_ID(-(_DESCS_COUNT(ct_bits) + 1)) On 64-bit systems with typical configuration (descbits=16): - Current buggy behavior: DESC0_ID = 0xfffeffff - Expected behavior: DESC0_ID = 0x3ffffffffffeffff The buggy version only uses 32 bits, which means: 1. The initial ID is nowhere near 2^62 2. It would take ~140 trillion wraps to trigger 62-bit overflow 3. The overflow handling code is never tested in practice Root Cause: ---------- The issue is in this line: #define _DESCS_COUNT(ct_bits) (1U << (ct_bits)) When _DESCS_COUNT(16) is calculated: 1U << 16 = 0x10000 (32-bit value) -(0x10000 + 1) = -0x10001 = 0xFFFEFFFF (32-bit two's complement) On 64-bit systems, this 32-bit value doesn't get extended to create the intended 62-bit ID near the maximum value. Impact: ------ While index calculations still work correctly in the short term, this bug has several implications: 1. Violates the design intention documented in the code 2. Overflow handling code paths remain untested 3. ABA detection code doesn't get exercised under overflow conditions 4. In extreme long-term running scenarios (though unlikely), could potentially cause issues when ID actually reaches 2^62 Verification: ------------ Tested on ARM64 system with CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT=20 (descbits=15): - Before fix: DESC0_ID(16) = 0xfffeffff - After fix: DESC0_ID(16) = 0x3fffffffffff7fff The fix aligns _DESCS_COUNT with _DATA_SIZE, which already correctly uses 1UL: #define _DATA_SIZE(sz_bits) (1UL << (sz_bits)) Signed-off-by: feng.zhou <realsummitzhou@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Tested-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260202094140.9518-1-realsummitzhou@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com>

2026-03-09workqueue: Add system_dfl_long_wq for long unbound worksMarco Crivellari
Currently there are users of queue_delayed_work() who specify system_long_wq, the per-cpu workqueue. This workqueue should be used for long per-cpu works, but queue_delayed_work() queue the work using: queue_delayed_work_on(WORK_CPU_UNBOUND, ...); This would end up calling __queue_delayed_work() that does: if (housekeeping_enabled(HK_TYPE_TIMER)) { // [....] } else { if (likely(cpu == WORK_CPU_UNBOUND)) add_timer_global(timer); else add_timer_on(timer, cpu); } So when cpu == WORK_CPU_UNBOUND the timer is global and is not using a specific CPU. Later, when __queue_work() is called: if (req_cpu == WORK_CPU_UNBOUND) { if (wq->flags & WQ_UNBOUND) cpu = wq_select_unbound_cpu(raw_smp_processor_id()); else cpu = raw_smp_processor_id(); } Because the wq is not unbound, it takes the CPU where the timer fired and enqueue the work on that CPU. The consequence of all of this is that the work can run anywhere, depending on where the timer fired. Introduce system_dfl_long_wq in order to change, in a future step, users that are still calling: queue_delayed_work(system_long_wq, ...); with the new system_dfl_long_wq instead, so that the work may benefit from scheduler task placement.

To detect that a function is a syscall handler, we check for arch-specific prefixes for the most common architectures. Unfortunately, the prefixes are hard-coded in arch syscall code so we need to hard-code them, too.

2026-03-09sched_ext: Use WRITE_ONCE() for the write side of scx_enable helper pointerzhidao su
scx_enable() uses double-checked locking to lazily initialize a static kthread_worker pointer. The fast path reads helper locklessly: if (!READ_ONCE(helper)) { // lockless read -- no helper_mutex The write side initializes helper under helper_mutex, but previously used a plain assignment: helper = kthread_run_worker(0, "scx_enable_helper"); ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ plain write -- KCSAN data race with READ_ONCE() above Since READ_ONCE() on the fast path and the plain write on the initialization path access the same variable without a common lock, they constitute a data race. KCSAN requires that all sides of a lock-free access use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() consistently. Use a temporary variable to stage the result of kthread_run_worker(), and only WRITE_ONCE() into helper after confirming the pointer is valid. This avoids a window where a concurrent caller on the fast path could observe an ERR pointer via READ_ONCE(helper) before the error check completes.

2026-03-08locking/mutex: Remove the list_head from struct mutexMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Instead of embedding a list_head in struct mutex, store a pointer to the first waiter. The list of waiters remains a doubly linked list so we can efficiently add to the tail of the list, remove from the front (or middle) of the list. Some of the list manipulation becomes more complicated, but it's a reasonable tradeoff on the slow paths to shrink data structures which embed a mutex like struct file. Some of the debug checks have to be deleted because there's no equivalent to checking them in the new scheme (eg an empty waiter->list now means that it is the only waiter, not that the waiter is no longer on the list).

ffa7ae0724e4 ("sched_ext: Add reenq_flags plumbing to scx_bpf_dsq_reenq()") introduced task_should_reenq() as a filter inside reenq_local(), requiring SCX_REENQ_ANY to be set in order to match any task. scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() handles this correctly by converting a bare reenq_flags=0 to SCX_REENQ_ANY, but scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() was not updated and continued to call reenq_local() with 0, causing it to silently reenqueue zero tasks. Fix by passing SCX_REENQ_ANY directly.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix possible NULL pointer dereference in trace_data_alloc() On the trace_data_alloc() error path, it can call trigger_data_free() with a NULL pointer. This used to be a kfree() but was changed to trigger_data_free() to clean up any partial initialization. The issue is that trigger_data_free() does not expect a NULL pointer. Have trigger_data_free() return safely on NULL pointer. - Fix multiple events on the command line and bootconfig If multiple events are enabled on the command line separately and not grouped, only the last event gets enabled. That is: trace_event=sched_switch trace_event=sched_waking will only enable sched_waking whereas: trace_event=sched_switch,sched_waking will enable both. The bootconfig makes it even worse as the second way is the more common method. The issue is that a temporary buffer is used to store the events to enable later in boot. Each time the cmdline callback is called, it overwrites what was previously there. Have the callback append the next value (delimited by a comma) if the temporary buffer already has content. - Fix command line trace_buffer_size if >= 2G The logic to allocate the trace buffer uses "int" for the size parameter in the command line code causing overflow issues if more that 2G is specified. * tag 'trace-v7.0-rc2-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: tracing: Fix trace_buf_size= cmdline parameter with sizes >= 2G tracing: Fix enabling multiple events on the kernel command line and bootconfig tracing: Add NULL pointer check to trigger_data_free()
