If we instead decide to generate vmlinux.h from BTF info, it will be
there:
$ pahole timespec64
struct timespec64 {
time64_t tv_sec; /* 0 8 */
long int tv_nsec; /* 8 8 */
/* size: 16, cachelines: 1, members: 2 */
/* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
};
$
pahole manages to find it from /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux, that is
generated from the kernel types.
With this linux/bpf.h doesn't need to be included, as its already in the
minimalistic tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/vmlinux/vmlinux.h file or what we
need comes when generating a vmlinux.h file from BTF info, i.e. when
using GEN_VMLINUX_H=1, as noticed by Namyung in a build break before
removing linux/bpf.h.

As a form of validation, it is a common practice to check the outputs
of commands whether they contain expected patterns or match a certain
regex.
Add helpers for verifying that all regexes are found in the output, that
all lines match any pattern from a set and that a certain expression is
not present in the output.
In verbose mode these helpers log mismatches for easier failure
investigation.

The test needs a struct machine and creates one for the current host,
but a side-effect is that struct machine has set up kernel maps
including module maps.
If the 'Symbols' test --dso option specifies a current kernel module,
it will already be present as a kernel dso, and a map with kmaps needs
to be used otherwise there will be a segfault - see below.
For that case, find the existing map and use that. In that case also,
the dso is split by section into multiple dsos, so test those dsos
also. That in turn, shows up that those dsos have not had overlapping
symbols removed, so the test fails.
Example:
Before:
$ perf test -F -v Symbols --dso /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko
70: Symbols :
--- start ---
Testing /lib/modules/6.7.2-local/kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
After:
$ perf test -F -v Symbols --dso /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko
70: Symbols :
--- start ---
Testing /lib/modules/6.7.2-local/kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko
Overlapping symbols:
41d30-41fbb l vmx_init
41d30-41fbb g init_module
---- end ----

Pull KVM fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Avoid dropping the page refcount twice when freeing an unlinked
page-table subtree.
- Don't source the VFIO Kconfig twice
- Fix protected-mode locking order between kvm and vcpus
RISC-V:
- Fix steal-time related sparse warnings
x86:
- Cleanup gtod_is_based_on_tsc() to return "bool" instead of an "int"
- Make a KVM_REQ_NMI request while handling KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS if
and only if the incoming events->nmi.pending is non-zero. If the
target vCPU is in the UNITIALIZED state, the spurious request will
result in KVM exiting to userspace, which in turn causes QEMU to
constantly acquire and release QEMU's global mutex, to the point
where the BSP is unable to make forward progress.
- Fix a type (u8 versus u64) goof that results in pmu->fixed_ctr_ctrl
being incorrectly truncated, and ultimately causes KVM to think a
fixed counter has already been disabled (KVM thinks the old value
is '0').
- Fix a stack leak in KVM_GET_MSRS where a failed MSR read from
userspace that is ultimately ignored due to ignore_msrs=true
doesn't zero the output as intended.
Selftests cleanups and fixes:
- Remove redundant newlines from error messages.
- Delete an unused variable in the AMX test (which causes build
failures when compiling with -Werror).
- Fail instead of skipping tests if open(), e.g. of /dev/kvm, fails
with an error code other than ENOENT (a Hyper-V selftest bug
resulted in an EMFILE, and the test eventually got skipped).
- Fix TSC related bugs in several Hyper-V selftests.
- Fix a bug in the dirty ring logging test where a sem_post() could
be left pending across multiple runs, resulting in incorrect
synchronization between the main thread and the vCPU worker thread.
- Relax the dirty log split test's assertions on 4KiB mappings to fix
false positives due to the number of mappings for memslot 0 (used
for code and data that is NOT being dirty logged) changing, e.g.
due to NUMA balancing"

The test Davide added in commit ca22da2fbd69 ("act_mirred: use the backlog
for nested calls to mirred ingress") hangs our testing VMs every 10 or so
runs, with the familiar tcp_v4_rcv -> tcp_v4_rcv deadlock reported by
lockdep.
The problem as previously described by Davide (see Link) is that
if we reverse flow of traffic with the redirect (egress -> ingress)
we may reach the same socket which generated the packet. And we may
still be holding its socket lock. The common solution to such deadlocks
is to put the packet in the Rx backlog, rather than run the Rx path
inline. Do that for all egress -> ingress reversals, not just once
we started to nest mirred calls.
In the past there was a concern that the backlog indirection will
lead to loss of error reporting / less accurate stats. But the current
workaround does not seem to address the issue.

As for IMA, move hardcoded EVM function calls from various places in the
kernel to the LSM infrastructure, by introducing a new LSM named 'evm'
(last and always enabled like 'ima'). The order in the Makefile ensures
that 'evm' hooks are executed after 'ima' ones.
Make EVM functions as static (except for evm_inode_init_security(), which
is exported), and register them as hook implementations in init_evm_lsm().
Also move the inline functions evm_inode_remove_acl(),
evm_inode_post_remove_acl(), and evm_inode_post_set_acl() from the public
evm.h header to evm_main.c.
Unlike before (see commit to move IMA to the LSM infrastructure),
evm_inode_post_setattr(), evm_inode_post_set_acl(),
evm_inode_post_remove_acl(), and evm_inode_post_removexattr() are not
executed for private inodes.
Finally, add the LSM_ID_EVM case in lsm_list_modules_test.c

Move hardcoded IMA function calls (not appraisal-specific functions) from
various places in the kernel to the LSM infrastructure, by introducing a
new LSM named 'ima' (at the end of the LSM list and always enabled like
'integrity').
Having IMA before EVM in the Makefile is sufficient to preserve the
relative order of the new 'ima' LSM in respect to the upcoming 'evm' LSM,
and thus the order of IMA and EVM function calls as when they were
hardcoded.
Make moved functions as static (except ima_post_key_create_or_update(),
which is not in ima_main.c), and register them as implementation of the
respective hooks in the new function init_ima_lsm().
Select CONFIG_SECURITY_PATH, to ensure that the path-based LSM hook
path_post_mknod is always available and ima_post_path_mknod() is always
executed to mark files as new, as before the move.
A slight difference is that IMA and EVM functions registered for the
inode_post_setattr, inode_post_removexattr, path_post_mknod,
inode_post_create_tmpfile, inode_post_set_acl and inode_post_remove_acl
won't be executed for private inodes. Since those inodes are supposed to be
fs-internal, they should not be of interest to IMA or EVM. The S_PRIVATE
flag is used for anonymous inodes, hugetlbfs, reiserfs xattrs, XFS scrub
and kernel-internal tmpfs files.
Conditionally register ima_post_key_create_or_update() if
CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS is enabled. Also, conditionally register
ima_kernel_module_request() if CONFIG_INTEGRITY_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS is enabled.
Finally, add the LSM_ID_IMA case in lsm_list_modules_test.c.

Under x86-64, when using bpf_probe_read_kernel{_str}() or
bpf_probe_read{_str}() to read vsyscall page, the read may trigger oops,
so add one test case to ensure that the problem is fixed. Beside those
four bpf helpers mentioned above, testing the read of vsyscall page by
using bpf_probe_read_user{_str} and bpf_copy_from_user{_task}() as well.
The test case passes the address of vsyscall page to these six helpers
and checks whether the returned values are expected:
1) For bpf_probe_read_kernel{_str}()/bpf_probe_read{_str}(), the
expected return value is -ERANGE as shown below:
bpf_probe_read_kernel_common
copy_from_kernel_nofault
// false, return -ERANGE
copy_from_kernel_nofault_allowed
2) For bpf_probe_read_user{_str}(), the expected return value is -EFAULT
as show below:
bpf_probe_read_user_common
copy_from_user_nofault
// false, return -EFAULT
__access_ok
3) For bpf_copy_from_user(), the expected return value is -EFAULT:
// return -EFAULT
bpf_copy_from_user
copy_from_user
_copy_from_user
// return false
access_ok
4) For bpf_copy_from_user_task(), the expected return value is -EFAULT:
// return -EFAULT
bpf_copy_from_user_task
access_process_vm
// return 0
vma_lookup()
// return 0
expand_stack()
The occurrence of oops depends on the availability of CPU SMAP [1]
feature and there are three possible configurations of vsyscall page in
the boot cmd-line: vsyscall={xonly|none|emulate}, so there are a total
of six possible combinations. Under all these combinations, the test
case runs successfully.

Every architecture can provide a register list for sampling. If an
architecture doesn't support register sampling, it won't define the data
structure 'sample_reg_masks'. Consequently, any code using this
structure must be protected by the macro 'HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT'.
This patch defines a weak function, arch__sample_reg_masks(), which will
be replaced by an architecture-defined function for returning the
architecture's register list. With this refactoring, the function always
exists, the condition checking for 'HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT' is not
needed anymore, so remove it.

Currently, the macro HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT is used as a switch to turn
on or turn off the code of perf registers. If any architecture cannot
support perf register, it disables the perf register parsing, for both
the native parsing and cross parsing for other architectures.
To support both the native parsing and cross parsing, the tool should
always build the perf regs functions. Thus, this patch removes
HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT from the perf regs files.

The verifier complains too big of the combined stack size (544 bytes) which
exceeds the maximum stack limit 512. This is a regression from llvm19 ([1]).
In the above error log, the original stack depth is 24+440+0+32.
To satisfy interpreter's need, in verifier the stack depth is adjusted to
32+448+32+32=544 which exceeds 512, hence the error. The same adjusted
stack size is also used for jit case.
But the jitted codes could use smaller stack size.

x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c: EMIT3_off32(0x48, 0x81, 0xC4, round_up(stack_depth, 8));
In the above, STACK_ALIGN in riscv/net/bpf_jit_comp32.c is defined as 16.
So stack is aligned in either 8 or 16, x86/s390 having 8-byte stack alignment and
the rest having 16-byte alignment.
This patch calculates total stack depth based on 16-byte alignment if jit is requested.
For the above failing case, the new stack size will be 32+448+0+32=512 and no verification
failure. llvm19 regression will be discussed separately in llvm upstream.
The verifier change caused three test failures as these tests compared messages
with stack size. More specifically,
- test_global_funcs/global_func1: fail with interpreter mode and success with jit mode.
Adjusted stack sizes so both jit and interpreter modes will fail.
- async_stack_depth/{pseudo_call_check, async_call_root_check}: since jit and interpreter
will calculate different stack sizes, the failure msg is adjusted to omit those
specific stack size numbers.

In some situations, if you fail to zero-initialize the
bpf_{prog,map,btf,link}_info structs supplied to the set of LIBBPF
helpers bpf_{prog,map,btf,link}_get_info_by_fd(), you can expect the
helper to return an error. This can possibly leave people in a
situation where they're scratching their heads for an unnnecessary
amount of time. Make an explicit remark about the requirement of
zero-initializing the supplied bpf_{prog,map,btf,link}_info structs
for the respective LIBBPF helpers.
Internally, LIBBPF helpers bpf_{prog,map,btf,link}_get_info_by_fd()
call into bpf_obj_get_info_by_fd() where the bpf(2)
BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD command is used. This specific command is
effectively backed by restrictions enforced by the
bpf_check_uarg_tail_zero() helper. This function ensures that if the
size of the supplied bpf_{prog,map,btf,link}_info structs are larger
than what the kernel can handle, trailing bits are zeroed. This can be
a problem when compiling against UAPI headers that don't necessarily
match the sizes of the same underlying types known to the kernel.

KVM selftests fixes/cleanups (and one KVM x86 cleanup) for 6.8:
- Remove redundant newlines from error messages.
- Delete an unused variable in the AMX test (which causes build failures when
compiling with -Werror).
- Fail instead of skipping tests if open(), e.g. of /dev/kvm, fails with an
error code other than ENOENT (a Hyper-V selftest bug resulted in an EMFILE,
and the test eventually got skipped).
- Fix TSC related bugs in several Hyper-V selftests.
- Fix a bug in the dirty ring logging test where a sem_post() could be left
pending across multiple runs, resulting in incorrect synchronization between
the main thread and the vCPU worker thread.
- Relax the dirty log split test's assertions on 4KiB mappings to fix false
positives due to the number of mappings for memslot 0 (used for code and
data that is NOT being dirty logged) changing, e.g. due to NUMA balancing.
- Have KVM's gtod_is_based_on_tsc() return "bool" instead of an "int" (the
function generates boolean values, and all callers treat the return value as

As BPF applications grow in size and complexity and are separated into
multiple .bpf.c files that are statically linked together, it becomes
harder and harder to match verifier's BPF assembly level output to
original C code. While often annotated C source code is unique enough to
be able to identify the file it belongs to, quite often this is actually
problematic as parts of source code can be quite generic.
Long story short, it is very useful to see source code file name and
line number information along with the original C code. Verifier already
knows this information, we just need to output it.
This patch extends verifier log with file name and line number
information, emitted next to original (presumably C) source code,
annotating BPF assembly output, like so:
; <original C code> @ <filename>.bpf.c:<line>
If file name has directory names in it, they are stripped away. This
should be fine in practice as file names tend to be pretty unique with
C code anyways, and keeping log size smaller is always good.
In practice this might look something like below, where some code is
coming from application files, while others are from libbpf's usdt.bpf.h
header file:

For program types that don't have named context type name (e.g., BPF
iterator programs or tracepoint programs), ctx_tname will be a non-NULL
empty string. For such programs it shouldn't be possible to have
PTR_TO_CTX argument for global subprogs based on type name alone.
arg:ctx tag is the only way to have PTR_TO_CTX passed into global
subprog for such program types.
Fix this loophole, which currently would assume PTR_TO_CTX whenever
user uses a pointer to anonymous struct as an argument to their global
subprogs. This happens in practice with the following (quite common, in
practice) approach:
typedef struct { /* anonymous */
int x;
} my_type_t;
int my_subprog(my_type_t *arg) { ... }
User's intent is to have PTR_TO_MEM argument for `arg`, but verifier
will complain about expecting PTR_TO_CTX.
This fix also closes unintended s390x-specific KPROBE handling of
PTR_TO_CTX case. Selftest change is necessary to accommodate this.

Test if the verifier verifies nullable pointer arguments correctly for BPF
struct_ops programs.
"test_maybe_null" in struct bpf_testmod_ops is the operator defined for the
test cases here.
A BPF program should check a pointer for NULL beforehand to access the
value pointed by the nullable pointer arguments, or the verifier should
reject the programs. The test here includes two parts; the programs
checking pointers properly and the programs not checking pointers
beforehand. The test checks if the verifier accepts the programs checking
properly and rejects the programs not checking at all.

Domain id is acquired differently depending on CPU. AMD tests use id
from L3 cache, whereas CPUs from other vendors base the id on topology
package id. In order to support L2 CAT test, this has to be
generalized.
The driver side code seems to get the domain ids from cache ids so the
approach used by the AMD branch seems to match the kernel-side code. It
will also work with L2 domain IDs as long as the cache level is
generalized.
Using the topology id was always fragile due to mismatch with the
kernel-side way to acquire the domain id. It got incorrect domain id,
e.g., when Cluster-on-Die (CoD) is enabled for CPU (but CoD is not well
suited for resctrl in the first place so it has not been a big issue if
tests don't work correctly with it).
Taking all the above into account, generalize acquiring the domain id
by taking it from the cache id and do not hard-code the cache level.

CAT test spawns two processes into two different control groups with
exclusive schemata. Both the processes alloc a buffer from memory
matching their allocated LLC block size and flush the entire buffer out
of caches. Since the processes are reading through the buffer only once
during the measurement and initially all the buffer was flushed, the
test isn't testing CAT.
Rewrite the CAT test to allocate a buffer sized to half of LLC. Then
perform a sequence of tests with different LLC alloc sizes starting
from half of the CBM bits down to 1-bit CBM. Flush the buffer before
each test and read the buffer twice. Observe the LLC misses on the
second read through the buffer. As the allocated LLC block gets smaller
and smaller, the LLC misses will become larger and larger giving a
strong signal on CAT working properly.
The new CAT test is using only a single process because it relies on
measured effect against another run of itself rather than another
process adding noise. The rest of the system is set to use the CBM bits
not used by the CAT test to keep the test isolated.
Replace count_bits() with count_contiguous_bits() to get the first bit
position in order to be able to calculate masks based on it.
This change has been tested with a number of systems from different
generations.

When reading memory in order, HW prefetching optimizations will
interfere with measuring how caches and memory are being accessed. This
adds noise into the results.
Change the fill_buf reading loop to not use an obvious in-order access
using multiply by a prime and modulo.
Using a prime multiplier with modulo ensures the entire buffer is
eventually read. 23 is small enough that the reads are spread out but
wrapping does not occur very frequently (wrapping too often can trigger
L2 hits more frequently which causes noise to the test because getting
the data from LLC is not required).
It was discovered that not all primes work equally well and some can
cause wildly unstable results (e.g., in an earlier version of this
patch, the reads were done in reversed order and 59 was used as the
prime resulting in unacceptably high and unstable results in MBA and
MBM test on some architectures).
