Add a description about the endianness of the size and the checksum fields. Those must be stored as le32 instead of u32. This will allow us to apply bootconfig to the cross build initrd without caring the endianness.

From Daniel's cover letter: IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache before it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It is not possible for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible memory using this method, since these systems implement a combination of hardware and software security measures to prevent scenarios where protected data could be leaked. However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that the attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass "kernel user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony Steinhauser of Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself, but there is a possibility it could be used in conjunction with side-channels or other weaknesses in the privileged code to construct an attack. This issue can be mitigated by flushing the L1 cache between privilege boundaries of concern.

2020-10-20xen/events: defer eoi in case of excessive number of eventsJuergen Gross
In case rogue guests are sending events at high frequency it might happen that xen_evtchn_do_upcall() won't stop processing events in dom0. As this is done in irq handling a crash might be the result. In order to avoid that, delay further inter-domain events after some time in xen_evtchn_do_upcall() by forcing eoi processing into a worker on the same cpu, thus inhibiting new events coming in. The time after which eoi processing is to be delayed is configurable via a new module parameter "event_loop_timeout" which specifies the maximum event loop time in jiffies (default: 2, the value was chosen after some tests showing that a value of 2 was the lowest with an only slight drop of dom0 network throughput while multiple guests performed an event storm). How long eoi processing will be delayed can be specified via another parameter "event_eoi_delay" (again in jiffies, default 10, again the value was chosen after testing with different delay values). This is part of XSA-332.

Pull more xfs updates from Darrick Wong: "The second large pile of new stuff for 5.10, with changes even more monumental than last week! We are formally announcing the deprecation of the V4 filesystem format in 2030. All users must upgrade to the V5 format, which contains design improvements that greatly strengthen metadata validation, supports reflink and online fsck, and is the intended vehicle for handling timestamps past 2038. We're also deprecating the old Irix behavioral tweaks in September 2025. Coming along for the ride are two design changes to the deferred metadata ops subsystem. One of the improvements is to retain correct logical ordering of tasks and subtasks, which is a more logical design for upper layers of XFS and will become necessary when we add atomic file range swaps and commits. The second improvement to deferred ops improves the scalability of the log by helping the log tail to move forward during long-running operations. This reduces log contention when there are a large number of threads trying to run transactions. In addition to that, this fixes numerous small bugs in log recovery; refactors logical intent log item recovery to remove the last remaining place in XFS where we could have nested transactions; fixes a couple of ways that intent log item recovery could fail in ways that wouldn't have happened in the regular commit paths; fixes a deadlock vector in the GETFSMAP implementation (which improves its performance by 20%); and fixes serious bugs in the realtime growfs, fallocate, and bitmap handling code. Summary: - Deprecate the V4 filesystem format, some disused mount options, and some legacy sysctl knobs now that we can support dates into the 25th century. Note that removal of V4 support will not happen until the early 2030s. - Fix some probles with inode realtime flag propagation. - Fix some buffer handling issues when growing a rt filesystem. - Fix a problem where a BMAP_REMAP unmap call would free rt extents even though the purpose of BMAP_REMAP is to avoid freeing the blocks. - Strengthen the dabtree online scrubber to check hash values on child dabtree blocks. - Actually log new intent items created as part of recovering log intent items. - Fix a bug where quotas weren't attached to an inode undergoing bmap intent item recovery. - Fix a buffer overrun problem with specially crafted log buffer headers. - Various cleanups to type usage and slightly inaccurate comments. - More cleanups to the xattr, log, and quota code. - Don't run the (slower) shared-rmap operations on attr fork mappings. - Fix a bug where we failed to check the LSN of finobt blocks during replay and could therefore overwrite newer data with older data. - Clean up the ugly nested transaction mess that log recovery uses to stage intent item recovery in the correct order by creating a proper data structure to capture recovered chains. - Use the capture structure to resume intent item chains with the same log space and block reservations as when they were captured. - Fix a UAF bug in bmap intent item recovery where we failed to maintain our reference to the incore inode if the bmap operation needed to relog itself to continue. - Rearrange the defer ops mechanism to finish newly created subtasks of a parent task before moving on to the next parent task. - Automatically relog intent items in deferred ops chains if doing so would help us avoid pinning the log tail.

2020-10-16lib, include/linux: add usercopy failure capabilityAlbert van der Linde
Patch series "add fault injection to user memory access", v3. The goal of this series is to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions, by adding support for fault injection. syzkaller/syzbot are using the existing fault injection modes and will use this particular feature also. The first patch adds failure injection capability for usercopy functions. The second changes usercopy functions to use this new failure capability (copy_from_user, ...). The third patch adds get/put/clear_user failures to x86. This patch (of 3): Add a failure injection capability to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions. Add CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_USERCOPY to enable faults in usercopy functions. The should_fail_usercopy function is to be called by these functions (copy_from_user, get_user, ...) in order to fail or not.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: - Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit stack traversal in common container configs and improving TCP back-pressure. Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain. - Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user space. (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to declared policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies (min/max length and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular commands. This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead of kernel version parsing or trial and error). - Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge. - Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces. - Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK packets of TCPv6. - In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data on multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options. - Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet deployments. - Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC. - Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols - CAN-FD and ISO 15765-2:2016. - Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit kernel problem. - Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs. - Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting to a blocking notifier. - Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs, opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific TCP option use. - Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life of TCP CC implemented in BPF. - Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the user space infra we have. - Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing. - Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'. - Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls. - Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps. - Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use is for pretty printing structures). - Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf syscall. - Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update; report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not). - Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space. - Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw, mv88e6xxx, dpaa2-eth). - In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms. Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface. - Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver. - Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to mscc_ocelot switches. - Add PTP support for Marvell Octeontx2 and PP2.2 hardware, as well as fixed interval period pulse generator and one-step timestamping in dpaa-eth. - Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3) offload. - Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS. - Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as 7-port Mediatek MT7531 IP. - Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver, and wcn3680 support in wcn36xx. - Improve performance for packets which don't require much offloads on recent Mellanox NICs by 20% by making multiple packets share a descriptor entry. - Move chelsio inline crypto drivers (for TLS and IPsec) from the crypto subtree to drivers/net. Move MDIO drivers out of the phy directory. - Clean up a lot of W=1 warnings, reportedly the actively developed subsections of networking drivers should now build W=1 warning free. - Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this conversion is not yet complete). * tag 'net-next-5.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next: (2583 commits) Revert "bpfilter: Fix build error with CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH" net, sockmap: Don't call bpf_prog_put() on NULL pointer bpf, selftest: Fix flaky tcp_hdr_options test when adding addr to lo bpf, sockmap: Add locking annotations to iterator netfilter: nftables: allow re-computing sctp CRC-32C in 'payload' statements net: fix pos incrementment in ipv6_route_seq_next net/smc: fix invalid return code in smcd_new_buf_create() net/smc: fix valid DMBE buffer sizes net/smc: fix use-after-free of delayed events bpfilter: Fix build error with CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH cxgb4/ch_ipsec: Replace the module name to ch_ipsec from chcr net: sched: Fix suspicious RCU usage while accessing tcf_tunnel_info bpf: Fix register equivalence tracking. rxrpc: Fix loss of final ack on shutdown rxrpc: Fix bundle counting for exclusive connections netfilter: restore NF_INET_NUMHOOKS ibmveth: Identify ingress large send packets. ibmveth: Switch order of ibmveth_helper calls. cxgb4: handle 4-tuple PEDIT to NAT mode translation selftests: Add VRF route leaking tests ...

2020-10-13mm: memcontrol: add the missing numa_stat interface for cgroup v2Muchun Song
In the cgroup v1, we have a numa_stat interface. This is useful for providing visibility into the numa locality information within an memcg since the pages are allowed to be allocated from any physical node. One of the use cases is evaluating application performance by combining this information with the application's CPU allocation. But the cgroup v2 does not. So this patch adds the missing information.

2020-10-13Merge tag 'printk-for-5.10' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek: "The big new thing is the fully lockless ringbuffer implementation, including the support for continuous lines. It will allow to store and read messages in any situation wihtout the risk of deadlocks and without the need of temporary per-CPU buffers. The access is still serialized by logbuf_lock. It synchronizes few more operations, for example, temporary buffer for formatting the message, syslog and kmsg_dump operations. The lock removal is being discussed and should be ready for the next release. The continuous lines are handled exactly the same way as before to avoid regressions in user space. It means that they are appended to the last message when the caller is the same. Only the last message can be extended. The data ring includes plain text of the messages. Except for an integer at the beginning of each message that points back to the descriptor ring with other metadata. The dictionary has to stay. journalctl uses it to filter the log. It allows to show messages related to a given device. The dictionary values are stored in the descriptor ring with the other metadata. This is the first part of the printk rework as discussed at Plumbers 2019, see https://lore.kernel.org/r/87k1acz5rx.fsf@linutronix.de. The next big step will be handling consoles by kthreads during the normal system operation. It will require special handling of situations when the kthreads could not get scheduled, for example, early boot, suspend, panic. Other changes: - Add John Ogness as a reviewer for printk subsystem. He is author of the rework and is familiar with the code and history. - Fix locking in serial8250_do_startup() to prevent lockdep report. - Few code cleanups" * tag 'printk-for-5.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux: (27 commits) printk: Use fallthrough pseudo-keyword printk: reduce setup_text_buf size to LOG_LINE_MAX printk: avoid and/or handle record truncation printk: remove dict ring printk: move dictionary keys to dev_printk_info printk: move printk_info into separate array printk: reimplement log_cont using record extension printk: ringbuffer: add finalization/extension support printk: ringbuffer: change representation of states printk: ringbuffer: clear initial reserved fields printk: ringbuffer: add BLK_DATALESS() macro printk: ringbuffer: relocate get_data() printk: ringbuffer: avoid memcpy() on state_var printk: ringbuffer: fix setting state in desc_read() kernel.h: Move oops_in_progress to printk.h scripts/gdb: update for lockless printk ringbuffer scripts/gdb: add utils.read_ulong() docs: vmcoreinfo: add lockless printk ringbuffer vmcoreinfo printk: reduce LOG_BUF_SHIFT range for H8300 printk: ringbuffer: support dataless records ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "This time very little driver changes but lots of core changes. We have some interesting cooperative work for ARM and Intel alike, making the GPIO subsystem more and more suitable for industrial systems and the like, in addition to the in-kernel users. We touch driver core (device properties) and lib/* by adding one simple string array free function, these are authored by Andy Shevchenko who is a well known and recognized core helpers maintainers so this should be fine. We also see some Android GKI-related modularization in the MXC drivers. Core changes: - The big core change is the updated (v2) userspace character device API. This corrects badly designed 64-bit alignment around the line events. We also add the debounce request feature. This echoes the often quotes passage from Frederick Brooks "The mythical man-month" to always throw one away, which we have seen before in things such as V4L2. So we put in a new one and deprecate and obsolete the old one. - All example tools in tools/gpio/* are migrated to the new API to set a good example. The libgpiod userspace library has been augmented to use this new API pretty much from day 1. - Some misc API hardening by using strn* function calls has been added as well. - Use the simpler IDA interface for GPIO chip instance enumeration. - Add device core function for counting string arrays in device properties. - Provide a generic library function kfree_strarray() that can be used throughout the kernel. Driver enhancements: - The DesignWare dwapb-gpio driver has been enhanced and now uses the IRQ handling in the gpiolib core. - The mockup and aggregator drivers have seen some substantial code clean-up and now use more of the core kernel inftrastructure. - Misc cleanups using dev_err_probe(). - The MXC drivers (Freescale/NXP) can now be built modularized, which makes modularized GKI Android kernels happy" * tag 'gpio-v5.10-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio: (73 commits) gpiolib: Update header block in gpiolib-cdev.h gpiolib: cdev: switch from kstrdup() to kstrndup() docs: gpio: add a new document to its index.rst gpio: pca953x: Add support for the NXP PCAL9554B/C tools: gpio: add debounce support to gpio-event-mon tools: gpio: add multi-line monitoring to gpio-event-mon tools: gpio: port gpio-event-mon to v2 uAPI tools: gpio: port gpio-hammer to v2 uAPI tools: gpio: rename nlines to num_lines tools: gpio: port gpio-watch to v2 uAPI tools: gpio: port lsgpio to v2 uAPI gpio: uapi: document uAPI v1 as deprecated gpiolib: cdev: support setting debounce gpiolib: cdev: support GPIO_V2_LINE_SET_VALUES_IOCTL gpiolib: cdev: support GPIO_V2_LINE_SET_CONFIG_IOCTL gpiolib: cdev: support edge detection for uAPI v2 gpiolib: cdev: support GPIO_V2_GET_LINEINFO_IOCTL and GPIO_V2_GET_LINEINFO_WATCH_IOCTL gpiolib: cdev: support GPIO_V2_GET_LINE_IOCTL and GPIO_V2_LINE_GET_VALUES_IOCTL gpiolib: add build option for CDEV v1 ABI gpiolib: make cdev a build option ...

2020-10-13LSM: SafeSetID: Add GID security policy handlingThomas Cedeno
The SafeSetID LSM has functionality for restricting setuid() calls based on its configured security policies. This patch adds the analogous functionality for setgid() calls. This is mostly a copy-and-paste change with some code deduplication, plus slight modifications/name changes to the policy-rule-related structs (now contain GID rules in addition to the UID ones) and some type generalization since SafeSetID now needs to deal with kgid_t and kuid_t types.
