selftests: Introduce Makefile variable to list shared bash scripts
[ Upstream commit 2a0683be5b4c9829e8335e494a21d1148e832822 ]
Some tests written in bash source other files in a parent directory.
selftests: Introduce Makefile variable to list shared bash scripts
[ Upstream commit 2a0683be5b4c9829e8335e494a21d1148e832822 ]
Some tests written in bash source other files in a parent directory. For example, drivers/net/bonding/dev_addr_lists.sh sources net/forwarding/lib.sh. If a subset of tests is exported and run outside the source tree (for example by using `make -C tools/testing/selftests gen_tar TARGETS="drivers/net/bonding"`), these other files must be made available as well.
Commit ae108c48b5d2 ("selftests: net: Fix cross-tree inclusion of scripts") addressed this problem by symlinking and copying the sourced files but this only works for direct dependencies. Commit 25ae948b4478 ("selftests/net: add lib.sh") changed net/forwarding/lib.sh to source net/lib.sh. As a result, that latter file must be included as well when the former is exported. This was not handled and was reverted in commit 2114e83381d3 ("selftests: forwarding: Avoid failures to source net/lib.sh"). In order to allow reinstating the inclusion of net/lib.sh from net/forwarding/lib.sh, add a mechanism to list dependent files in a new Makefile variable and export them. This allows sourcing those files using the same expression whether tests are run in-tree or exported.
Dependencies are not resolved recursively so transitive dependencies must be listed in TEST_INCLUDES. For example, if net/forwarding/lib.sh sources net/lib.sh; the Makefile related to a test that sources net/forwarding/lib.sh from a parent directory must list: TEST_INCLUDES := \ ../../../net/forwarding/lib.sh \ ../../../net/lib.sh
v2: Fix rst syntax in Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst (Jakub Kicinski)
v1 (from RFC): * changed TEST_INCLUDES to take relative paths, like other TEST_* variables (Vladimir Oltean) * preserved common "$(MAKE) OUTPUT=... -C ... target" ordering in Makefile (Petr Machata)

Revert "selftests: error out if kernel header files are not yet built"
commit 43e8832fed08438e2a27afed9bac21acd0ceffe5 upstream.
This reverts commit 9fc96c7c19df ("selftests: error out if kernel header files are not yet built").
It turns out that requiring the kernel headers to be built as a prerequisite to building selftests, does not work in many cases. For example, Peter Zijlstra writes:
"My biggest beef with the whole thing is that I simply do not want to use 'make headers', it doesn't work for me.
I have a ton of output directories and I don't care to build tools into the output dirs, in fact some of them flat out refuse to work that way (bpf comes to mind)." [1]
Therefore, stop erroring out on the selftests build. Additional patches will be required in order to change over to not requiring the kernel headers.

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.fchmodat2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull fchmodat2 system call from Christian Brauner: "This adds the fchmodat2() system call. It is a revised version of the fchmodat() system call, adding a missing flag argument. Support for both AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW and AT_EMPTY_PATH are included.
Adding this system call revision has been a longstanding request but so far has always fallen through the cracks. While the kernel implementation of fchmodat() does not have a flag argument the libc provided POSIX-compliant fchmodat(3) version does. Both glibc and musl have to implement a workaround in order to support AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW (see [1] and [2]).
The workaround is brittle because it relies not just on O_PATH and O_NOFOLLOW semantics and procfs magic links but also on our rather inconsistent symlink semantics.
This gives userspace a proper fchmodat2() system call that libcs can use to properly implement fchmodat(3) and allows them to get rid of their hacks. In this case it will immediately benefit them as the current workaround is already defunct because of aformentioned inconsistencies.
In addition to AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, give userspace the ability to use AT_EMPTY_PATH with fchmodat2(). This is already possible with fchownat() so there's no reason to not also support it for fchmodat2().
The implementation is simple and comes with selftests. Implementation of the system call and wiring up the system call are done as separate patches even though they could arguably be one patch. But in case there are merge conflicts from other system call additions it can be beneficial to have separate patches"

==================== Process connector bug fixes & enhancements
Oracle DB is trying to solve a performance overhead problem it has been facing for the past 10 years and using this patch series, we can fix this issue.
Oracle DB runs on a large scale with 100000s of short lived processes, starting up and exiting quickly. A process monitoring DB daemon which tracks and cleans up after processes that have died without a proper exit needs notifications only when a process died with a non-zero exit code (which should be rare).
Due to the pmon architecture, which is distributed, each process is independent and has minimal interaction with pmon. Hence fd based solutions to track a process's spawning and exit cannot be used. Pmon needs to detect the abnormal death of a process so it can cleanup after. Currently it resorts to checking /proc every few seconds. Other methods we tried like using system call to reduce the above overhead were not accepted upstream.
With this change, we add event based filtering to proc connector module so that DB can only listen to the events it is interested in. A new event type PROC_EVENT_NONZERO_EXIT is added, which is only sent by kernel to a listening application when any process exiting has a non-zero exit status.
This change will give Oracle DB substantial performance savings - it takes 50ms to scan about 8K PIDs in /proc, about 500ms for 100K PIDs. DB does this check every 3 secs, so over an hour we save 10secs for 100K PIDs.
With this, a client can register to listen for only exit or fork or a mix or all of the events. This greatly enhances performance - currently, we need to listen to all events, and there are 9 different types of events. For eg. handling 3 types of events - 8K-forks + 8K-exits + 8K-execs takes 200ms, whereas handling 2 types - 8K-forks + 8K-exits takes about 150ms, and handling just one type - 8K exits takes about 70ms.
Measuring the time using pidfds for monitoring 8K process exits took 4 times longer - 200ms, as compared to 70ms using only exit notifications of proc connector. Hence, we cannot use pidfd for our use case.
This kind of a new event could also be useful to other applications like Google's lmkd daemon, which needs a killed process's exit notification.
This patch series is organized as follows -
Patch 1 : Needed for patch 3 to work. Patch 2 : Needed for patch 3 to work. Patch 3 : Fixes some bugs in proc connector, details in the patch. Patch 4 : Adds event based filtering for performance enhancements. Patch 5 : Allow non-root users access to proc connector events. Patch 6 : Selftest code for proc connector.
v9->v10 changes: - Rebased to net-next, re-compiled and re-tested.
v8->v9 changes: - Added sha1 ("title") of reversed patch as suggested by Eric Dumazet.
v7->v8 changes: - Fixed an issue pointed by Liam Howlett in v7.
v6->v7 changes: - Incorporated Liam Howlett's comments on v6 - Incorporated Kalesh Anakkur Purayil's comments
v5->v6 changes: - Incorporated Liam Howlett's comments - Removed FILTER define from proc_filter.c and added a "-f" run-time option to run new filter code. - Made proc_filter.c a selftest in tools/testing/selftests/connector
v4->v5 changes: - Change the cover letter - Fix a small issue in proc_filter.c
v3->v4 changes: - Fix comments by Jakub Kicinski to incorporate root access changes within bind call of connector
v2->v3 changes: - Fix comments by Jakub Kicinski to separate netlink (patch 2) (after layering) from connector fixes (patch 3). - Minor fixes suggested by Jakub. - Add new multicast group level permissions check at netlink layer. Split this into netlink & connector layers (patches 6 & 7)
v1->v2 changes: - Fix comments by Jakub Kicinski to keep layering within netlink and update kdocs. - Move non-root users access patch last in series so remaining patches can go in first.
v->v1 changes: - Changed commit log in patch 4 as suggested by Christian Brauner - Changed patch 4 to make more fine grained access to non-root users - Fixed warning in cn_proc.c, Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> - Fixed some existing warnings in cn_proc.c ====================
