Pull RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley:
 "Before v7.0 is released, fix a few issues with the CFI patchset,
  merged earlier in v7.0-rc, that primarily affect interfaces to
  non-kernel code:

   - Improve the prctl() interface for per-task indirect branch landing
     pad control to expand abbreviations and to resemble the speculation
     control prctl() interface

   - Expand the "LP" and "SS" abbreviations in the ptrace uapi header
     file to "branch landing pad" and "shadow stack", to improve
     readability

   - Fix a typo in a CFI-related macro name in the ptrace uapi header
     file

   - Ensure that the indirect branch tracking state and shadow stack
     state are unlocked immediately after an exec() on the new task so
     that libc subsequently can control it

   - While working in this area, clean up the kernel-internal,
     cross-architecture prctl() function names by expanding the
     abbreviations mentioned above"

tools/power turbostat: Allow execution to continue after perf_l2_init() failure

2026-04-10T13:04:32+00:00

Currently, if perf_l2_init() fails turbostat exits after issuing the
following error (which was encountered on AlderLake):

turbostat: perf_l2_init(cpu0, 0x0, 0xff24) REFS: Invalid argument

This occurs because perf_l2_init() calls err(). However, the code has been
written in such a manner that it is able to perform cleanup and continue.
Therefore, this issue can be addressed by changing the appropriate calls
to err() to warnx().

Additionally, correct the PMU type arguments passed to the warning strings
in the ecore and lcore blocks so the logs accurately reflect the failing
counter type.

selftests: nft_queue.sh: add a parallel stress test

2026-04-08T11:34:51+00:00

Introduce a new stress test to check for race conditions in the
nfnetlink_queue subsystem, where an entry is freed while another CPU is
concurrently walking the global rhashtable.

To trigger this, `nf_queue.c` is extended with two new flags:
  * -O (out-of-order): Buffers packet IDs and flushes them in reverse.
  * -b (bogus verdicts): Floods the kernel with non-existent packet IDs.

The bogus verdict loop forces the kernel's lookup function to perform
full rhashtable bucket traversals (-ENOENT). Combined with reverse-order
flushing and heavy parallel UDP/ping flooding across 8 queues, this puts
the nfnetlink_queue code under pressure.

Joint work with Florian Westphal.

selftests: seg6: add test for dst_cache isolation in seg6 lwtunnel

2026-04-08T03:20:56+00:00

Add a selftest that verifies the dst_cache in seg6 lwtunnel is not
shared between the input (forwarding) and output (locally generated)
paths.

The test creates three namespaces (ns_src, ns_router, ns_dst)
connected in a line. An SRv6 encap route on ns_router encapsulates
traffic destined to cafe::1 with SID fc00::100. The SID is
reachable only for forwarded traffic (from ns_src) via an ip rule
matching the ingress interface (iif veth-r0 lookup 100), and
blackholed in the main table.

The test verifies that:

  1. A packet generated locally on ns_router does not reach
     ns_dst with an empty cache, since the SID is blackholed;
  2. A forwarded packet from ns_src populates the input cache
     from table 100 and reaches ns_dst;
  3. A packet generated locally on ns_router still does not
     reach ns_dst after the input cache is populated,
     confirming the output path does not reuse the input
     cache entry.

Both the forwarded and local packets are pinned to the same CPU
with taskset, since dst_cache is per-cpu.

selftests: net: bridge_vlan_mcast: wait for h1 before querier check

2026-04-08T03:16:16+00:00

The querier-interval test adds h1 (currently a slave of the VRF created
by simple_if_init) to a temporary bridge br1 acting as an outside IGMP
querier. The kernel VRF driver (drivers/net/vrf.c) calls cycle_netdev()
on every slave add and remove, toggling the interface admin-down then up.
Phylink takes the PHY down during the admin-down half of that cycle.
Since h1 and swp1 are cable-connected, swp1 also loses its link may need
several seconds to re-negotiate.

Use setup_wait_dev $h1 0 which waits for h1 to return to UP state, so the
test can rely on the link being back up at this point.

vsock/test: fix send_buf()/recv_buf() EINTR handling

2026-04-07T01:46:03+00:00

When send() or recv() returns -1 with errno == EINTR, the code skips
the break but still adds the return value to nwritten/nread, making it
decrease by 1. This leads to wrong buffer offsets and wrong bytes count.

Fix it by explicitly continuing the loop on EINTR, so the return value
is only added when it is positive.

selftests: bpf: adjust rx_dropped xskxceiver's test to respect tailroom

2026-04-07T01:43:52+00:00

Since we have changed how big user defined headroom in umem can be,
change the logic in testapp_stats_rx_dropped() so we pass updated
headroom validation in xdp_umem_reg() and still drop half of frames.

Test works on non-mbuf setup so __xsk_pool_get_rx_frame_size() that is
called on xsk_rcv_check() will not account skb_shared_info size. Taking
the tailroom size into account in test being fixed is needed as
xdp_umem_reg() defaults to respect it.

selftests: bpf: have a separate variable for drop test

2026-04-07T01:43:52+00:00

Currently two different XDP programs share a static variable for
different purposes (picking where to redirect on shared umem test &
whether to drop a packet). This can be a problem when running full test
suite - idx can be written by shared umem test and this value can cause
a false behavior within XDP drop half test.

Introduce a dedicated variable for drop half test so that these two
don't step on each other toes. There is no real need for using
__sync_fetch_and_add here as XSK tests are executed on single CPU.
