The capability check should not be audited since it is only being used
to determine the inode permissions. A failed check does not indicate a
violation of security policy but, when an LSM is enabled, a denial audit
message was being generated.
The denial audit message can either lead to the capability being
unnecessarily allowed in a security policy, or being silenced potentially
masking a legitimate capability check at a later point in time.
Similar to commit d6169b0206db ("net: Use ns_capable_noaudit() when
determining net sysctl permissions")

Currently only array maps are supported, but the implementation can be
extended for other maps and objects. The hash is memoized only for
exclusive and frozen maps as their content is stable until the exclusive
program modifies the map.
This is required for BPF signing, enabling a trusted loader program to
verify a map's integrity. The loader retrieves
the map's runtime hash from the kernel and compares it against an
expected hash computed at build time.

Exclusive maps restrict map access to specific programs using a hash.
The current hash used for this is SHA1, which is prone to collisions.
This patch uses SHA256, which is more resilient against
collisions. This new hash is stored in bpf_prog and used by the verifier
to determine if a program can access a given exclusive map.
The original 64-bit tags are kept, as they are used by users as a short,
possibly colliding program identifier for non-security purposes.

Currently, KF_RCU_PROTECTED only applies to iterator APIs and that too
in a convoluted fashion: the presence of this flag on the kfunc is used
to set MEM_RCU in iterator type, and the lack of RCU protection results
in an error only later, once next() or destroy() methods are invoked on
the iterator. While there is no bug, this is certainly a bit
unintuitive, and makes the enforcement of the flag iterator specific.
In the interest of making this flag useful for other upcoming kfuncs,
e.g. scx_bpf_cpu_curr() [0][1], add enforcement for invoking the kfunc
in an RCU critical section in general.
This would also mean that iterator APIs using KF_RCU_PROTECTED will
error out earlier, instead of throwing an error for lack of RCU CS
protection when next() or destroy() methods are invoked.
In addition to this, if the kfuncs tagged KF_RCU_PROTECTED return a
pointer value, ensure that this pointer value is only usable in an RCU
critical section. There might be edge cases where the return value is
special and doesn't need to imply MEM_RCU semantics, but in general, the
assumption should hold for the majority of kfuncs, and we can revisit
things if necessary later.

Introduce the partition_cpus_change function to handle both regular CPU
set updates and exclusive CPU modifications, either of which may trigger
partition state changes. This generalized function will also be utilized
for exclusive CPU updates in subsequent patches.
With the introduction of compute_trialcs_excpus in a previous patch,
the trialcs->effective_xcpus field is now consistently computed and
maintained. Consequently, the legacy logic which assigned
**trialcs->allowed_cpus to a local 'xcpus' variable** when
trialcs->effective_xcpus was empty has been removed.
This removal is safe because when trialcs is not a partition member,
trialcs->effective_xcpus is now correctly populated with the intersection
of user_xcpus and the parent's effective_xcpus. This calculation inherently
covers the scenario previously handled by the removed code.

Refactor cpus_allowed_validate_change to handle the special case where
cpuset.cpus can be set even when violating partition sibling CPU
exclusivity rules. This differs from the general validation logic in
validate_change. Add a wrapper function to properly handle this
exceptional case.
The trialcs->prs_err field is cleared before performing validation checks
for both CPU changes and partition errors. If cpus_allowed_validate_change
fails its validation, trialcs->prs_err is set to PERR_NOTEXCL. If partition
validation fails, the specific error code returned by validate_partition
is assigned to trialcs->prs_err.
With the partition validation status now directly available through
trialcs->prs_err, the local boolean variable 'invalidate' becomes
redundant and can be safely removed.

The current implementation contains redundant handling for empty mask
inputs, as cpulist_parse() already properly handles these cases. This
refactoring introduces a new helper function parse_cpuset_cpulist() to
consolidate CPU list parsing logic and eliminate special-case checks for
empty inputs.
Additionally, the effective_xcpus computation for trial cpusets has been
simplified. Rather than computing effective_xcpus only when exclusive_cpus
is set or when the cpuset forms a valid partition, we now recalculate it
on every cpuset.cpus update. This approach ensures consistency and allows
removal of redundant effective_xcpus logic in subsequent patches.
The trial cpuset's effective_xcpus calculation follows two distinct cases:
1. For member cpusets: effective_xcpus is determined by the intersection
of cpuset->exclusive_cpus and the parent's effective_xcpus.
2. For non-member cpusets: effective_xcpus is derived from the intersection
of user_xcpus and the parent's effective_xcpus.

The current compute_effective_exclusive_cpumask function handles multiple
scenarios with different input parameters, making the code difficult to
follow. This patch refactors it into two separate functions:
compute_excpus and compute_trialcs_excpus.
The compute_excpus function calculates the exclusive CPU mask for a given
input and excludes exclusive CPUs from sibling cpusets when cs's
exclusive_cpus is not explicitly set.
The compute_trialcs_excpus function specifically handles exclusive CPU
computation for trial cpusets used during CPU mask configuration updates,
and always excludes exclusive CPUs from sibling cpusets.
This refactoring significantly improves code readability and clarity,
making it explicit which function to call for each use case and what
parameters should be provided.

Syzbot generated a program that triggers a verifier_bug() call in
maybe_exit_scc(). maybe_exit_scc() assumes that, when called for a
state with insn_idx in some SCC, there should be an instance of struct
bpf_scc_visit allocated for that SCC. Turns out the assumption does
not hold for speculative execution paths. See example in the next
patch.
maybe_scc_exit() is called from update_branch_counts() for states that
reach branch count of zero, meaning that path exploration for a
particular path is finished. Path exploration can finish in one of
three ways:
a. Verification error is found. In this case, update_branch_counts()
is called only for non-speculative paths.
b. Top level BPF_EXIT is reached. Such instructions are never a part of
an SCC, so compute_scc_callchain() in maybe_scc_exit() will return
false, and maybe_scc_exit() will return early.
c. A checkpoint is reached and matched. Checkpoints are created by
is_state_visited(), which calls maybe_enter_scc(), which allocates
bpf_scc_visit instances for checkpoints within SCCs.
Hence, for non-speculative symbolic execution paths, the assumption
still holds: if maybe_scc_exit() is called for a state within an SCC,
bpf_scc_visit instance must exist.
This patch removes the verifier_bug() call for speculative paths.

softirqs are preemptible on PREEMPT_RT. There is synchronisation between
individual sections which disable bottom halves. This in turn means that
a forced threaded interrupt cannot preempt another forced threaded
interrupt. Instead it will PI-boost the other handler and wait for its
completion.
This is required because code within a softirq section is assumed to be
non-preemptible and may expect exclusive access to per-CPU resources
such as variables or pinned timers.
Code with such expectation has been identified and updated to use
local_lock_nested_bh() for locking of the per-CPU resource. This means the
softirq lock can be removed.
Disable the softirq synchronization, but add a new config switch
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_NEEDS_BH_LOCK which allows to re-enable the synchronized
behavior in case that there are issues, which haven't been detected yet.
The softirq_ctrl.cnt accounting remains to let the NOHZ code know if

The tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() via tasklet_disable_in_atomic() is
provided for a few legacy tasklet users. The interface is used from
atomic context (which is either softirq or disabled preemption) on
non-PREEMPT_RT and relies on spinning until the tasklet callback
completes.
On PREEMPT_RT the context is never atomic but the busy polling logic
remains. It is possible that the thread invoking tasklet_unlock_spin_wait()
has higher priority than the tasklet. If both run on the same CPU the the
tasklet makes no progress and the thread trying to cancel the tasklet will
live-lock the system.
To avoid the lockup tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() uses local_bh_disable()/
enable() which utilizes the local_lock_t for synchronisation. This lock is
a central per-CPU BKL and about to be removed.
Solve this by acquire a lock in tasklet_action_common() which is held while
the tasklet's callback is invoked. This lock will be acquired from
tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() via tasklet_callback_cancel_wait_running().
After the tasklet completed tasklet_callback_sync_wait_running() drops the
lock and acquires it again. In order to avoid unlocking the lock even if
there is no cancel request, there is a cb_waiters counter which is
incremented during a cancel request. Blocking on the lock will PI-boost
the tasklet if needed, ensuring progress is made.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of
the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow
callers to transition their calls.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
All existing users have been updated accordingly.

waiting indefinitely for that CPU to become available again.
In doing so, we decided to skip migration-disabled tasks, under the
assumption that they cannot be migrated anyway.
However, when a higher scheduling class preempts a CPU, the running task
is always inserted at the head of the local DSQ as a migration-disabled
task. This means it is always skipped by scx_bpf_reenqueue_local(), and
ends up being confined to the same CPU even if that CPU is heavily
contended by other higher scheduling class tasks.
As an example, let's consider the following scenario:
$ schedtool -a 0,1, -e yes > /dev/null
$ sudo schedtool -F -p 99 -a 0, -e \
stress-ng -c 1 --cpu-load 99 --cpu-load-slice 1000
The first task (SCHED_EXT) can run on CPU0 or CPU1. The second task
(SCHED_FIFO) is pinned to CPU0 and consumes ~99% of it. If the SCHED_EXT
task initially runs on CPU0, it will remain there because it always sees
CPU0 as "idle" in the short gaps left by the RT task, resulting in ~1%
utilization while CPU1 stays idle:
0[||||||||||||||||||||||100.0%] 8[ 0.0%]
1[ 0.0%] 9[ 0.0%]
2[ 0.0%] 10[ 0.0%]
3[ 0.0%] 11[ 0.0%]
4[ 0.0%] 12[ 0.0%]
5[ 0.0%] 13[ 0.0%]
6[ 0.0%] 14[ 0.0%]
7[ 0.0%] 15[ 0.0%]
PID USER PRI NI S CPU CPU%▽MEM% TIME+ Command
1067 root RT 0 R 0 99.0 0.2 0:31.16 stress-ng-cpu [run]
975 arighi 20 0 R 0 1.0 0.0 0:26.32 yes
By allowing scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() to re-enqueue migration-disabled
tasks, the scheduler can choose to migrate them to other CPUs (CPU1 in
this case) via ops.enqueue(), leading to better CPU utilization:
0[||||||||||||||||||||||100.0%] 8[ 0.0%]
1[||||||||||||||||||||||100.0%] 9[ 0.0%]
2[ 0.0%] 10[ 0.0%]
3[ 0.0%] 11[ 0.0%]
4[ 0.0%] 12[ 0.0%]
5[ 0.0%] 13[ 0.0%]
6[ 0.0%] 14[ 0.0%]
7[ 0.0%] 15[ 0.0%]

555 arighi 20 0 R 1 100.0 0.0 0:28.67 yes
It's debatable whether per-CPU tasks should be re-enqueued as well, but
doing so is probably safer: the scheduler can recognize re-enqueued
tasks through the %SCX_ENQ_REENQ flag, reassess their placement, and
either put them back at the head of the local DSQ or let another task
attempt to take the CPU.
This also prevents giving per-CPU tasks an implicit priority boost,
which would otherwise make them more likely to reclaim CPUs preempted by
higher scheduling classes.

Since commit a8bb74acd8efe ("rcu: Consolidate RCU-sched update-side function definitions")
there is no difference between rcu_read_lock(), rcu_read_lock_bh() and
rcu_read_lock_sched() in terms of RCU read section and the relevant grace
period. That means that spin_lock(), which implies rcu_read_lock_sched(),
also implies rcu_read_lock().
There is no need no explicitly start a RCU read section if one has already
been started implicitly by spin_lock().
Simplify the code and remove the inner rcu_read_lock() invocation.

Function bpf_patch_insn_data() has the following structure:
static struct bpf_prog *bpf_patch_insn_data(... env ...)
{
struct bpf_prog *new_prog;
struct bpf_insn_aux_data *new_data = NULL;
if (len > 1) {
new_data = vrealloc(...); // <--------- (1)
if (!new_data)
return NULL;
env->insn_aux_data = new_data; // <---- (2)
}
new_prog = bpf_patch_insn_single(env->prog, off, patch, len);
if (IS_ERR(new_prog)) {
...
vfree(new_data); // <----------------- (3)
return NULL;
}
... happy path ...
}
In case if bpf_patch_insn_single() returns an error the `new_data`
allocated at (1) will be freed at (3). However, at (2) this pointer
is stored in `env->insn_aux_data`. Which is freed unconditionally
by verifier.c:bpf_check() on both happy and error paths.
Thus, leading to double-free.
Fix this by removing vfree() call at (3), ownership over `new_data` is
already passed to `env->insn_aux_data` at this point.

The bpf_cgroup_from_id kfunc relies on cgroup_get_from_id to obtain the
cgroup corresponding to a given cgroup ID. This helper can be called in
a lot of contexts where the current thread can be random. A recent
example was its use in sched_ext's ops.tick(), to obtain the root cgroup
pointer. Since the current task can be whatever random user space task
preempted by the timer tick, this makes the behavior of the helper
unreliable.
Refactor out __cgroup_get_from_id as the non-namespace aware version of
cgroup_get_from_id, and change bpf_cgroup_from_id to make use of it.
There is no compatibility breakage here, since changing the namespace
against which the lookup is being done to the root cgroup namespace only
permits a wider set of lookups to succeed now. The cgroup IDs across
namespaces are globally unique, and thus don't need to be retranslated.

generic_delete_inode() is rather misleading for what the routine is
doing. inode_just_drop() should be much clearer.
The new naming is inconsistent with generic_drop_inode(), so rename that
one as well with inode_ as the suffix.

Set reader_tasks to NULL after kfree() in ref_scale_cleanup() to
improve debugging experience with kernel debugging tools. This
follows the common pattern of NULLing pointers after freeing to
avoid dangling pointer issues during debugging sessions.
Setting pointers to NULL after freeing helps debugging tools like
kdgb,drgn, and other kernel debuggers by providing clear indication
that the memory has been freed and the pointer is no longer valid.

Remove unnecessary kfree(main_task) call in ref_scale_cleanup() as
torture_stop_kthread() already handles the memory cleanup for the
task structure internally.
The additional kfree(main_task) call after torture_stop_kthread()
is redundant and confusing since torture_stop_kthread() sets the
pointer to NULL, making this a no-op.
This pattern is consistent with other torture test modules where
torture_stop_kthread() is called without explicit kfree() of the
task pointer, as the torture framework manages the task lifecycle
internally.
