Merge tag 'hardening-v6.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux
Pull hardening updates from Kees Cook: "There are three areas of note:
A bunch of strlcpy()->strscpy() conversions ended up living in my tree since they were either Acked by maintainers for me to carry, or got ignored for multiple weeks (and were trivial changes).
The compiler option '-fstrict-flex-arrays=3' has been enabled globally, and has been in -next for the entire devel cycle. This changes compiler diagnostics (though mainly just -Warray-bounds which is disabled) and potential UBSAN_BOUNDS and FORTIFY _warning_ coverage. In other words, there are no new restrictions, just potentially new warnings. Any new FORTIFY warnings we've seen have been fixed (usually in their respective subsystem trees). For more details, see commit df8fc4e934c12b.
The under-development compiler attribute __counted_by has been added so that we can start annotating flexible array members with their associated structure member that tracks the count of flexible array elements at run-time. It is possible (likely?) that the exact syntax of the attribute will change before it is finalized, but GCC and Clang are working together to sort it out. Any changes can be made to the macro while we continue to add annotations.
As an example of that last case, I have a treewide commit waiting with such annotations found via Coccinelle:
https://git.kernel.org/linus/adc5b3cb48a049563dc673f348eab7b6beba8a9b
Also see commit dd06e72e68bcb4 for more details.
Summary:
- Fix KMSAN vs FORTIFY in strlcpy/strlcat (Alexander Potapenko)
- Convert strreplace() to return string start (Andy Shevchenko)
- Flexible array conversions (Arnd Bergmann, Wyes Karny, Kees Cook)
- Add missing function prototypes seen with W=1 (Arnd Bergmann)
- Fix strscpy() kerndoc typo (Arne Welzel)
- Replace strlcpy() with strscpy() across many subsystems which were either Acked by respective maintainers or were trivial changes that went ignored for multiple weeks (Azeem Shaikh)
- Remove unneeded cc-option test for UBSAN_TRAP (Nick Desaulniers)
- Add KUnit tests for strcat()-family
- Enable KUnit tests of FORTIFY wrappers under UML
- Add more complete FORTIFY protections for strlcat()
- Add missed disabling of FORTIFY for all arch purgatories.
- Enable -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 globally
- Tightening UBSAN_BOUNDS when using GCC
- Improve checkpatch to check for strcpy, strncpy, and fake flex arrays
- Improve use of const variables in FORTIFY
- Add requested struct_size_t() helper for types not pointers
- Add __counted_by macro for annotating flexible array size members"

x86/csum: Improve performance of `csum_partial`
1) Add special case for len == 40 as that is the hottest value. The nets a ~8-9% latency improvement and a ~30% throughput improvement in the len == 40 case.
2) Use multiple accumulators in the 64-byte loop. This dramatically improves ILP and results in up to a 40% latency/throughput improvement (better for more iterations).

There is no such thing as a free lunch, however, and the special case for len == 40 does add overhead to the len != 40 cases. This seems to amount to be ~5% throughput and slightly less in terms of latency.
Testing: Part of this change is a new kunit test. The tests check all alignment X length pairs in [0, 64) X [0, 512). There are three cases. 1) Precomputed random inputs/seed. The expected results where generated use the generic implementation (which is assumed to be non-buggy). 2) An input of all 1s. The goal of this test is to catch any case a carry is missing. 3) An input that never carries. The goal of this test si to catch any case of incorrectly carrying.
More exhaustive tests that test all alignment X length pairs in [0, 8192) X [0, 8192] on random data are also available here: https://github.com/goldsteinn/csum-reproduction
The reposity also has the code for reproducing the above benchmark numbers.

Merge tag 'modules-6.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux
Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain: "The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
- Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
- Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
- My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded prior to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the respective debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although the functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help* reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to have been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will want to just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details:
The functional change change in this pull request is the very first patch from Song Liu which replaces the 'struct module_layout' with a new 'struct module_memory'. The old data structure tried to put together all types of supported module memory types in one data structure, the new one abstracts the differences in memory types in a module to allow each one to provide their own set of details. This paves the way in the future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way. If you look at changes they also provide a nice cleanup of how we handle these different memory areas in a module. This change has been in linux-next since before the merge window opened for v6.3 so to provide more than a full kernel cycle of testing. It's a good thing as quite a bit of fixes have been found for it.
Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user by using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module specific dynamic debug information.
Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request so to:
a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit. Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching, kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area is active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf").
Nick has been working on this *for years* and AFAICT I was the only one to suggest two alternatives to this approach for tooling. The complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in that we'd need a possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check if the object being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever lead to it being part of a module, and if so define a new define -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0].
A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've suggested would be to have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as well but that means getting kconfig symbol names mapping to modules always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am not aware of Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite recently Josh Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and BPF would benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as well but for other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr) patches were mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has been dropped with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could never be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up, and so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull requests for this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after rc3. LWN has good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and the typical cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only concrete blocker issue he ran into was that we should not remove the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if they can never be modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due to having to do this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who really did *not understand* the core of the issue nor were providing any alternative / guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped the patches which dropped the module license tags where an SPDX license tag was missing, it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see if a pull request deals with a file which lacks SPDX tags you can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \ $(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above, but that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but it demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees, and I just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out. Those changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on a systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running out of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only consists of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is already present and ready", proving that this was the best we can do on the modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been in linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final fix for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported with larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking a bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3] of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge them, but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this instead"

Merge tag 'net-next-6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "Core:
- Introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAGS. Increasing the default value allows for better BIG TCP performances
- Reduce compound page head access for zero-copy data transfers
- RPS/RFS improvements, avoiding unneeded NET_RX_SOFTIRQ when possible
- Threaded NAPI improvements, adding defer skb free support and unneeded softirq avoidance
- Address dst_entry reference count scalability issues, via false sharing avoidance and optimize refcount tracking
- Add lockless accesses annotation to sk_err[_soft]
- Optimize again the skb struct layout
- Extends the skb drop reasons to make it usable by multiple subsystems
- Better const qualifier awareness for socket casts
BPF:
- Add skb and XDP typed dynptrs which allow BPF programs for more ergonomic and less brittle iteration through data and variable-sized accesses
- Add a new BPF netfilter program type and minimal support to hook BPF programs to netfilter hooks such as prerouting or forward
- Add more precise memory usage reporting for all BPF map types
- Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device operating in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for controlling encap params
- Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular kfunc exists or not, and also add support for this in light skeleton
- Bigger batch of BPF verifier improvements to prepare for upcoming BPF open-coded iterators allowing for less restrictive looping capabilities
- Rework RCU enforcement in the verifier, add kptr_rcu and enforce BPF programs to NULL-check before passing such pointers into kfunc
- Add support for kptrs in percpu hashmaps, percpu LRU hashmaps and in local storage maps
- Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr tasks to be stored in BPF maps
- Add support for refcounted local kptrs to the verifier for allowing shared ownership, useful for adding a node to both the BPF list and rbtree
- Add BPF verifier support for ST instructions in convert_ctx_access() which will help new -mcpu=v4 clang flag to start emitting them
- Add ARM32 USDT support to libbpf
- Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations
Protocols:
- IPv4: Allow adding to IPv4 address a 'protocol' tag. Such value indicates the provenance of the IP address
- IPv6: optimize route lookup, dropping unneeded R/W lock acquisition
- Add the handshake upcall mechanism, allowing the user-space to implement generic TLS handshake on kernel's behalf
- Bridge: support per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression, increasing resilience to nodes failures
- SCTP: add support for Fair Capacity and Weighted Fair Queueing schedulers
- MPTCP: delay first subflow allocation up to its first usage. This will allow for later better LSM interaction
- xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from input/output path. These are not needed anymore
- WiFi: - reduced neighbor report (RNR) handling for AP mode - HW timestamping support - support for randomized auth/deauth TA for PASN privacy - per-link debugfs for multi-link - TC offload support for mac80211 drivers - mac80211 mesh fast-xmit and fast-rx support - enable Wi-Fi 7 (EHT) mesh support
Netfilter:
- Add nf_tables 'brouting' support, to force a packet to be routed instead of being bridged
- Update bridge netfilter and ovs conntrack helpers to handle IPv6 Jumbo packets properly, i.e. fetch the packet length from hop-by-hop extension header. This is needed for BIT TCP support
- The iptables 32bit compat interface isn't compiled in by default anymore
- Move ip(6)tables builtin icmp matches to the udptcp one. This has the advantage that icmp/icmpv6 match doesn't load the iptables/ip6tables modules anymore when iptables-nft is used
- Extended netlink error report for netdevice in flowtables and netdev/chains. Allow for incrementally add/delete devices to netdev basechain. Allow to create netdev chain without device
Driver API:
- Remove redundant Device Control Error Reporting Enable, as PCI core has already error reporting enabled at enumeration time
- Move Multicast DB netlink handlers to core, allowing devices other then bridge to use them
- Allow the page_pool to directly recycle the pages from safely localized NAPI
- Implement lockless TX queue stop/wake combo macros, allowing for further code de-duplication and sanitization
- Add YNL support for user headers and struct attrs
- Add partial YNL specification for devlink
- Add partial YNL specification for ethtool
- Add tc-mqprio and tc-taprio support for preemptible traffic classes
- Add tx push buf len param to ethtool, specifies the maximum number of bytes of a transmitted packet a driver can push directly to the underlying device
- Add basic LED support for switch/phy
- Add NAPI documentation, stop relaying on external links
- Convert dsa_master_ioctl() to netdev notifier. This is a preparatory work to make the hardware timestamping layer selectable by user space
- Add transceiver support and improve the error messages for CAN-FD controllers

atomics: Provide rcuref - scalable reference counting
atomic_t based reference counting, including refcount_t, uses atomic_inc_not_zero() for acquiring a reference. atomic_inc_not_zero() is implemented with a atomic_try_cmpxchg() loop. High contention of the reference count leads to retry loops and scales badly. There is nothing to improve on this implementation as the semantics have to be preserved.
Provide rcuref as a scalable alternative solution which is suitable for RCU managed objects. Similar to refcount_t it comes with overflow and underflow detection and mitigation.
rcuref treats the underlying atomic_t as an unsigned integer and partitions this space into zones:
0x00000000 - 0x7FFFFFFF valid zone (1 .. (INT_MAX + 1) references) 0x80000000 - 0xBFFFFFFF saturation zone 0xC0000000 - 0xFFFFFFFE dead zone 0xFFFFFFFF no reference
rcuref_get() unconditionally increments the reference count with atomic_add_negative_relaxed(). rcuref_put() unconditionally decrements the reference count with atomic_add_negative_release().
This unconditional increment avoids the inc_not_zero() problem, but requires a more complex implementation on the put() side when the count drops from 0 to -1.
When this transition is detected then it is attempted to mark the reference count dead, by setting it to the midpoint of the dead zone with a single atomic_cmpxchg_release() operation. This operation can fail due to a concurrent rcuref_get() elevating the reference count from -1 to 0 again.
If the unconditional increment in rcuref_get() hits a reference count which is marked dead (or saturated) it will detect it after the fact and bring back the reference count to the midpoint of the respective zone. The zones provide enough tolerance which makes it practically impossible to escape from a zone.
The racy implementation of rcuref_put() requires to protect rcuref_put() against a grace period ending in order to prevent a subtle use after free. As RCU is the only mechanism which allows to protect against that, it is not possible to fully replace the atomic_inc_not_zero() based implementation of refcount_t with this scheme.
The final drop is slightly more expensive than the atomic_dec_return() counterpart, but that's not the case which this is optimized for. The optimization is on the high frequeunt get()/put() pairs and their scalability.
The performance of an uncontended rcuref_get()/put() pair where the put() is not dropping the last reference is still on par with the plain atomic operations, while at the same time providing overflow and underflow detection and mitigation.
The performance of rcuref compared to plain atomic_inc_not_zero() and atomic_dec_return() based reference counting under contention:
- Micro benchmark: All CPUs running a increment/decrement loop on an elevated reference count, which means the 0 to -1 transition never happens.
The performance gain depends on microarchitecture and the number of CPUs and has been observed in the range of 1.3X to 4.7X
- Conversion of dst_entry::__refcnt to rcuref and testing with the localhost memtier/memcached benchmark. That benchmark shows the reference count contention prominently.
The performance gain depends on microarchitecture and the number of CPUs and has been observed in the range of 1.1X to 2.6X over the previous fix for the false sharing issue vs. struct dst_entry::__refcnt.
When memtier is run over a real 1Gb network connection, there is a small gain on top of the false sharing fix. The two changes combined result in a 2%-5% total gain for that networked test.
