[PATCH v23 00/28] riscv control-flow integrity for usermode

by Deepak Gupta via B4 Relay

v23: fixed some of the "CHECK:" reported on checkpatch --strict. Accepted Joel's suggestion for kselftest's Makefile. CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is enabled when zicfiss, zicfilp and fcf-protection are all present in toolchain v22: fixing build error due to -march=zicfiss being picked in gcc-13 and above but not actually doing any codegen or recognizing instruction for zicfiss. Change in v22 makes dependence on `-fcf-protection=full` compiler flag to ensure that toolchain has support and then only CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI will be visible in menuconfig. v21: fixed build errors. Basics and overview =================== Software with larger attack surfaces (e.g. network facing apps like databases, browsers or apps relying on browser runtimes) suffer from memory corruption issues which can be utilized by attackers to bend control flow of the program to eventually gain control (by making their payload executable). Attackers are able to perform such attacks by leveraging call-sites which rely on indirect calls or return sites which rely on obtaining return address from stack memory. To mitigate such attacks, risc-v extension zicfilp enforces that all indirect calls must land on a landing pad instruction `lpad` else cpu will raise software check exception (a new cpu exception cause code on riscv). Similarly for return flow, risc-v extension zicfiss extends architecture with - `sspush` instruction to push return address on a shadow stack - `sspopchk` instruction to pop return address from shadow stack and compare with input operand (i.e. return address on stack) - `sspopchk` to raise software check exception if comparision above was a mismatch - Protection mechanism using which shadow stack is not writeable via regular store instructions More information an details can be found at extensions github repo [1]. Equivalent to landing pad (zicfilp) on x86 is `ENDBRANCH` instruction in Intel CET [3] and branch target identification (BTI) [4] on arm. Similarly x86's Intel CET has shadow stack [5] and arm64 has guarded control stack (GCS) [6] which are very similar to risc-v's zicfiss shadow stack. x86 and arm64 support for user mode shadow stack is already in mainline. Kernel awareness for user control flow integrity ================================================ This series picks up Samuel Holland's envcfg changes [2] as well. So if those are being applied independently, they should be removed from this series. Enabling: In order to maintain compatibility and not break anything in user mode, kernel doesn't enable control flow integrity cpu extensions on binary by default. Instead exposes a prctl interface to enable, disable and lock the shadow stack or landing pad feature for a task. This allows userspace (loader) to enumerate if all objects in its address space are compiled with shadow stack and landing pad support and accordingly enable the feature. Additionally if a subsequent `dlopen` happens on a library, user mode can take a decision again to disable the feature (if incoming library is not compiled with support) OR terminate the task (if user mode policy is strict to have all objects in address space to be compiled with control flow integirty cpu feature). prctl to enable shadow stack results in allocating shadow stack from virtual memory and activating for user address space. x86 and arm64 are also following same direction due to similar reason(s). clone/fork: On clone and fork, cfi state for task is inherited by child. Shadow stack is part of virtual memory and is a writeable memory from kernel perspective (writeable via a restricted set of instructions aka shadow stack instructions) Thus kernel changes ensure that this memory is converted into read-only when fork/clone happens and COWed when fault is taken due to sspush, sspopchk or ssamoswap. In case `CLONE_VM` is specified and shadow stack is to be enabled, kernel will automatically allocate a shadow stack for that clone call. map_shadow_stack: x86 introduced `map_shadow_stack` system call to allow user space to explicitly map shadow stack memory in its address space. It is useful to allocate shadow for different contexts managed by a single thread (green threads or contexts) risc-v implements this system call as well. signal management: If shadow stack is enabled for a task, kernel performs an asynchronous control flow diversion to deliver the signal and eventually expects userspace to issue sigreturn so that original execution can be resumed. Even though resume context is prepared by kernel, it is in user space memory and is subject to memory corruption and corruption bugs can be utilized by attacker in this race window to perform arbitrary sigreturn and eventually bypass cfi mechanism. Another issue is how to ensure that cfi related state on sigcontext area is not trampled by legacy apps or apps compiled with old kernel headers. In order to mitigate control-flow hijacting, kernel prepares a token and place it on shadow stack before signal delivery and places address of token in sigcontext structure. During sigreturn, kernel obtains address of token from sigcontext struture, reads token from shadow stack and validates it and only then allow sigreturn to succeed. Compatiblity issue is solved by adopting dynamic sigcontext management introduced for vector extension. This series re-factor the code little bit to allow future sigcontext management easy (as proposed by Andy Chiu from SiFive) config and compilation: Introduce a new risc-v config option `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI`. Selecting this config option picks the kernel support for user control flow integrity. This optin is presented only if toolchain has shadow stack and landing pad support. And is on purpose guarded by toolchain support. Reason being that eventually vDSO also needs to be compiled in with shadow stack and landing pad support. vDSO compile patches are not included as of now because landing pad labeling scheme is yet to settle for usermode runtime. To get more information on kernel interactions with respect to zicfilp and zicfiss, patch series adds documentation for `zicfilp` and `zicfiss` in following: Documentation/arch/riscv/zicfiss.rst Documentation/arch/riscv/zicfilp.rst How to test this series ======================= Toolchain --------- $ git clone git@github.com:sifive/riscv-gnu-toolchain.git -b cfi-dev $ riscv-gnu-toolchain/configure --prefix=<path-to-where-to-build> --with-arch=rv64gc_zicfilp_zicfiss --enable-linux --disable-gdb --with-extra-multilib-test="rv64gc_zicfilp_zicfiss-lp64d:-static" $ make -j$(nproc) Qemu ---- Get the lastest qemu $ cd qemu $ mkdir build $ cd build $ ../configure --target-list=riscv64-softmmu $ make -j$(nproc) Opensbi ------- $ git clone git@github.com:deepak0414/opensbi.git -b v6_cfi_spec_split_opensbi $ make CROSS_COMPILE=<your riscv toolchain> -j$(nproc) PLATFORM=generic Linux ----- Running defconfig is fine.

With dual vdso support it is default "y" (if toolchain supports it). Fixing build error due to "-march=zicfiss" being picked in gcc-13 partially. gcc-13 only recognizes the flag but not actually doing any codegen or recognizing instruction for zicfiss. Change in v22 makes dependence on `-fcf-protection=full` compiler flag to ensure that toolchain has support and then only CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI will be visible in menuconfig. - picked up tags and some cosmetic changes in commit message for dual vdso patch. v21: - Fixing build errors due to changes in arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso.h Using #ifdef instead of IS_ENABLED in arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso.h vdso-cfi-offsets.h should be included only when CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is selected. v20: - rebased on v6.18-rc1. - Added two vDSO support. If `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI` is selected two vDSOs are compiled (one for hardware prior to RVA23 and one for RVA23 onwards). Kernel exposes RVA23 vDSO if hardware/cpu implements zimop else exposes existing vDSO to userspace. - default selection for `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI` is "Yes". - replaced "__ASSEMBLY__" with "__ASSEMBLER__" v19: - riscv_nousercfi was `int`. changed it to unsigned long. Thanks to Alex Ghiti for reporting it. It was a bug. - ELP is cleared on trap entry only when CONFIG_64BIT. - restore ssp back on return to usermode was being done before `riscv_v_context_nesting_end` on trap exit path. If kernel shadow stack were enabled this would result in kernel operating on user shadow stack and panic (as I found in my testing of kcfi patch series). So fixed that. v18: - rebased on 6.16-rc1 - uprobe handling clears ELP in sstatus image in pt_regs - vdso was missing shadow stack elf note for object files. added that. Additional asm file for vdso needed the elf marker flag. toolchain should complain if `-fcf-protection=full` and marker is missing for object generated from asm file. Asked toolchain folks to fix this. Although no reason to gate the merge on that. - Split up compile options for march and fcf-protection in vdso Makefile - CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI option is moved under "Kernel features" menu Added `arch/riscv/configs/hardening.config` fragment which selects CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI v17: - fixed warnings due to empty macros in usercfi.h (reported by alexg) - fixed prefixes in commit titles reported by alexg - took below uprobe with fcfi v2 patch from Zong Li and squashed it with "riscv/traps: Introduce software check exception and uprobe handling" https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250604093403.10916-1-zong.li@sifive.com/ v16: - If FWFT is not implemented or returns error for shadow stack activation, then no_usercfi is set to disable shadow stack. Although this should be picked up by extension validation and activation. Fixed this bug for zicfilp and zicfiss both. Thanks to Charlie Jenkins for reporting this. - If toolchain doesn't support cfi, cfi kselftest shouldn't build. Suggested by Charlie Jenkins. - Default for CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is set to no. Charlie/Atish suggested to keep it off till we have more hardware availibility with RVA23 profile and zimop/zcmop implemented. Else this will start breaking people's workflow - Includes the fix if "!RV64 and !SBI" then definitions for FWFT in asm-offsets.c error. v15: - Toolchain has been updated to include `-fcf-protection` flag. This exists for x86 as well. Updated kernel patches to compile vDSO and selftest to compile with `fcf-protection=full` flag. - selecting CONFIG_RISCV_USERCFI selects CONFIG_RISCV_SBI. - Patch to enable shadow stack for kernel wasn't hidden behind CONFIG_RISCV_USERCFI and CONFIG_RISCV_SBI. fixed that. v14: - rebased on top of palmer/sbi-v3. Thus dropped clement's FWFT patches Updated RISCV_ISA_EXT_XXXX in hwcap and hwprobe constants. - Took Radim's suggestions on bitfields. - Placed cfi_state at the end of thread_info block so that current situation is not disturbed with respect to member fields of thread_info in single cacheline. v13: - cpu_supports_shadow_stack/cpu_supports_indirect_br_lp_instr uses riscv_has_extension_unlikely() - uses nops(count) to create nop slide - RISCV_ACQUIRE_BARRIER is not needed in `amo_user_shstk`. Removed it - changed ternaries to simply use implicit casting to convert to bool. - kernel command line allows to disable zicfilp and zicfiss independently. updated kernel-parameters.txt. - ptrace user abi for cfi uses bitmasks instead of bitfields. Added ptrace kselftest. - cosmetic and grammatical changes to documentation. v12: - It seems like I had accidently squashed arch agnostic indirect branch tracking prctl and riscv implementation of those prctls. Split them again. - set_shstk_status/set_indir_lp_status perform CSR writes only when CPU support is available. As suggested by Zong Li. - Some minor clean up in kselftests as suggested by Zong Li. v11: - patch "arch/riscv: compile vdso with landing pad" was unconditionally selecting `_zicfilp` for vDSO compile. fixed that. Changed `lpad 1` to to `lpad 0`. v10: - dropped "mm: helper `is_shadow_stack_vma` to check shadow stack vma". This patch is not that interesting to this patch series for risc-v. There are instances in arch directories where VM_SHADOW_STACK flag is anyways used. Dropping this patch to expedite merging in riscv tree. - Took suggestions from `Clement` on "riscv: zicfiss / zicfilp enumeration" to validate presence of cfi based on config. - Added a patch for vDSO to have `lpad 0`. I had omitted this earlier to make sure we add single vdso object with cfi enabled. But a vdso object with scheme of zero labeled landing pad is least common denominator and should work with all objects of zero labeled as well as function-signature labeled objects. v9: - rebased on master (39a803b754d5 fix braino in "9p: fix ->rename_sem exclusion") - dropped "mm: Introduce ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK" (master has it from arm64/gcs) - dropped "prctl: arch-agnostic prctl for shadow stack" (master has it from arm64/gcs) v8: - rebased on palmer/for-next - dropped samuel holland's `envcfg` context switch patches. they are in parlmer/for-next v7: - Removed "riscv/Kconfig: enable HAVE_EXIT_THREAD for riscv" Instead using `deactivate_mm` flow to clean up. see here for more context https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230908203655.543765-1-rick.p.edgecombe@intel.… - Changed the header include in `kselftest`. Hopefully this fixes compile issue faced by Zong Li at SiFive. - Cleaned up an orphaned change to `mm/mmap.c` in below patch "riscv/mm : ensure PROT_WRITE leads to VM_READ | VM_WRITE" - Lock interfaces for shadow stack and indirect branch tracking expect arg == 0 Any future evolution of this interface should accordingly define how arg should be setup. - `mm/map.c` has an instance of using `VM_SHADOW_STACK`. Fixed it to use helper `is_shadow_stack_vma`. - Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241008-v5_user_cfi_series-v6-0-60d9fe073f37@riv… v6: - Picked up Samuel Holland's changes as is with `envcfg` placed in `thread` instead of `thread_info` - fixed unaligned newline escapes in kselftest - cleaned up messages in kselftest and included test output in commit message - fixed a bug in clone path reported by Zong Li - fixed a build issue if CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_V is not selected (this was introduced due to re-factoring signal context management code) v5: - rebased on v6.12-rc1 - Fixed schema related issues in device tree file - Fixed some of the documentation related issues in zicfilp/ss.rst (style issues and added index) - added `SHADOW_STACK_SET_MARKER` so that implementation can define base of shadow stack. - Fixed warnings on definitions added in usercfi.h when CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is not selected. - Adopted context header based signal handling as proposed by Andy Chiu - Added support for enabling kernel mode access to shadow stack using FWFT (https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-sbi-doc/blob/master/src/ext-firmware…) - Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241001-v5_user_cfi_series-v1-0-3ba65b6e550f@riv… (Note: I had an issue in my workflow due to which version number wasn't picked up correctly while sending out patches) v4: - rebased on 6.11-rc6 - envcfg: Converged with Samuel Holland's patches for envcfg management on per- thread basis. - vma_is_shadow_stack is renamed to is_vma_shadow_stack - picked up Mark Brown's `ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK` patch - signal context: using extended context management to maintain compatibility. - fixed `-Wmissing-prototypes` compiler warnings for prctl functions - Documentation fixes and amending typos. - Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240912231650.3740732-1-debug@rivosinc.com/ v3: - envcfg logic to pick up base envcfg had a bug where `ENVCFG_CBZE` could have been picked on per task basis, even though CPU didn't implement it. Fixed in this series. - dt-bindings As suggested, split into separate commit. fixed the messaging that spec is in public review - arch_is_shadow_stack change arch_is_shadow_stack changed to vma_is_shadow_stack - hwprobe zicfiss / zicfilp if present will get enumerated in hwprobe - selftests As suggested, added object and binary filenames to .gitignore Selftest binary anyways need to be compiled with cfi enabled compiler which will make sure that landing pad and shadow stack are enabled. Thus removed separate enable/disable tests. Cleaned up tests a bit. - Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240403234054.2020347-1-debug@rivosinc.com/ v2: - Using config `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI`, kernel support for riscv control flow integrity for user mode programs can be compiled in the kernel. - Enabling of control flow integrity for user programs is left to user runtime - This patch series introduces arch agnostic `prctls` to enable shadow stack and indirect branch tracking. And implements them on riscv. --- Changes in v23: - Link to v22: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251023-v5_user_cfi_series-v22-0-1935270f7636@ri… Changes in v22: - Link to v21: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251015-v5_user_cfi_series-v21-0-6a07856e90e7@ri… Changes in v21: -

[PATCH net-next v6 0/8][pull request] Add support for providers with large rx buffer

by Pavel Begunkov

Note: it's net/ only bits and doesn't include changes, which shoulf be merged separately and are posted separately. The full branch for convenience is at [1], and the patch is here: https://lore.kernel.org/io-uring/7486ab32e99be1f614b3ef8d0e9bc77015b173f7.1… Many modern NICs support configurable receive buffer lengths, and zcrx and memory providers can use buffers larger than 4K/PAGE_SIZE on x86 to improve performance. When paired with hw-gro larger rx buffer sizes can drastically reduce the number of buffers traversing the stack and save a lot of processing time. It also allows to give to users larger contiguous chunks of data. The idea was first floated around by Saeed during netdev conf 2024 and was asked about by a few folks. Single stream benchmarks showed up to ~30% CPU util improvement. E.g. comparison for 4K vs 32K buffers using a 200Gbit NIC: packets=23987040 (MB=2745098), rps=199559 (MB/s=22837) CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %idle 0 1.53 0.00 27.78 2.72 1.31 66.45 0.22 packets=24078368 (MB=2755550), rps=200319 (MB/s=22924) CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %idle 0 0.69 0.00 8.26 31.65 1.83 57.00 0.57 This series adds net infrastructure for memory providers configuring the size and implements it for bnxt. It's an opt-in feature for drivers, they should advertise support for the parameter in the qops and must check if the hardware supports the given size. It's limited to memory providers as it drastically simplifies implementation. It doesn't affect the fast path zcrx uAPI, and the sizes is defined in zcrx terms, which allows it to be flexible and adjusted in the future, see Patch 7 for details.

[PATCH net-next] selftests: net: add a hint about MACAddressPolicy=persistent

by Jakub Kicinski

New NIPA installation had been reporting a few flaky tests. arp_ndisc_evict_nocarrier is most flaky of them all. I suspect that the flakiness is due to udev swapping the MAC addresses on the interfaces. Extend the message in arp_ndisc_evict_nocarrier to hint at this potential issue. Having the neigh get fail right after ping is rather unusual, unless udev changes the MAC addr causing a flush in the meantime.

[PATCH net-next] selftests/net/ipsec: Fix variable size type not at the end of struct

by Ankit Khushwaha

The "struct alg" object contains a union of 3 xfrm structures: union { struct xfrm_algo; struct xfrm_algo_aead; struct xfrm_algo_auth; } All of them end with a flexible array member used to store key material, but the flexible array appears at *different offsets* in each struct. bcz of this, union itself is of variable-sized & Placing it above char buf[...] triggers: ipsec.c:835:5: warning: field 'u' with variable sized type 'union (unnamed union at ipsec.c:831:3)' not at the end of a struct or class is a GNU extension [-Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end] 835 | } u; | ^ one fix is to use "TRAILING_OVERLAP()" which works with one flexible array member only. But In "struct alg" flexible array member exists in all union members, but not at the same offset, so TRAILING_OVERLAP cannot be applied. so the fix is to explicitly overlay the key buffer at the correct offset for the largest union member (xfrm_algo_auth). This ensures that the flexible-array region and the fixed buffer line up. No functional change.

[PATCH net-next v12 00/12] vsock: add namespace support to vhost-vsock and loopback

by Bobby Eshleman

This series adds namespace support to vhost-vsock and loopback. It does not add namespaces to any of the other guest transports (virtio-vsock, hyperv, or vmci). The current revision supports two modes: local and global. Local mode is complete isolation of namespaces, while global mode is complete sharing between namespaces of CIDs (the original behavior). The mode is set using /proc/sys/net/vsock/ns_mode. Modes are per-netns and write-once. This allows a system to configure namespaces independently (some may share CIDs, others are completely isolated). This also supports future possible mixed use cases, where there may be namespaces in global mode spinning up VMs while there are mixed mode namespaces that provide services to the VMs, but are not allowed to allocate from the global CID pool (this mode is not implemented in this series). If a socket or VM is created when a namespace is global but the namespace changes to local, the socket or VM will continue working normally. That is, the socket or VM assumes the mode behavior of the namespace at the time the socket/VM was created. The original mode is captured in vsock_create() and so occurs at the time of socket(2) and accept(2) for sockets and open(2) on /dev/vhost-vsock for VMs. This prevents a socket/VM connection from suddenly breaking due to a namespace mode change. Any new sockets/VMs created after the mode change will adopt the new mode's behavior. Additionally, added tests for the new namespace features: tools/testing/selftests/vsock/vmtest.sh 1..28 ok 1 vm_server_host_client ok 2 vm_client_host_server ok 3 vm_loopback ok 4 ns_host_vsock_ns_mode_ok ok 5 ns_host_vsock_ns_mode_write_once_ok ok 6 ns_global_same_cid_fails ok 7 ns_local_same_cid_ok ok 8 ns_global_local_same_cid_ok ok 9 ns_local_global_same_cid_ok ok 10 ns_diff_global_host_connect_to_global_vm_ok ok 11 ns_diff_global_host_connect_to_local_vm_fails ok 12 ns_diff_global_vm_connect_to_global_host_ok ok 13 ns_diff_global_vm_connect_to_local_host_fails ok 14 ns_diff_local_host_connect_to_local_vm_fails ok 15 ns_diff_local_vm_connect_to_local_host_fails ok 16 ns_diff_global_to_local_loopback_local_fails ok 17 ns_diff_local_to_global_loopback_fails ok 18 ns_diff_local_to_local_loopback_fails ok 19 ns_diff_global_to_global_loopback_ok ok 20 ns_same_local_loopback_ok ok 21 ns_same_local_host_connect_to_local_vm_ok ok 22 ns_same_local_vm_connect_to_local_host_ok ok 23 ns_mode_change_connection_continue_vm_ok ok 24 ns_mode_change_connection_continue_host_ok ok 25 ns_mode_change_connection_continue_both_ok ok 26 ns_delete_vm_ok ok 27 ns_delete_host_ok ok 28 ns_delete_both_ok SUMMARY: PASS=28 SKIP=0 FAIL=0 Dependent on series: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251108-vsock-selftests-fixes-and-improvements… Thanks again for everyone's help and reviews!

[PATCH v8 00/29] KVM: arm64: Implement support for SME

by Mark Brown

I've removed the RFC tag from this version of the series, but the items that I'm looking for feedback on remains the same: - The userspace ABI, in particular: - The vector length used for the SVE registers, access to the SVE registers and access to ZA and (if available) ZT0 depending on the current state of PSTATE.{SM,ZA}. - The use of a single finalisation for both SVE and SME. - The addition of control for enabling fine grained traps in a similar manner to FGU but without the UNDEF, I'm not clear if this is desired at all and at present this requires symmetric read and write traps like FGU. That seemed like it might be desired from an implementation point of view but we already have one case where we enable an asymmetric trap (for ARM64_WORKAROUND_AMPERE_AC03_CPU_38) and it seems generally useful to enable asymmetrically. This series implements support for SME use in non-protected KVM guests. Much of this is very similar to SVE, the main additional challenge that SME presents is that it introduces a new vector length similar to the SVE vector length and two new controls which change the registers seen by guests: - PSTATE.ZA enables the ZA matrix register and, if SME2 is supported, the ZT0 LUT register. - PSTATE.SM enables streaming mode, a new floating point mode which uses the SVE register set with the separately configured SME vector length. In streaming mode implementation of the FFR register is optional. It is also permitted to build systems which support SME without SVE, in this case when not in streaming mode no SVE registers or instructions are available. Further, there is no requirement that there be any overlap in the set of vector lengths supported by SVE and SME in a system, this is expected to be a common situation in practical systems. Since there is a new vector length to configure we introduce a new feature parallel to the existing SVE one with a new pseudo register for the streaming mode vector length. Due to the overlap with SVE caused by streaming mode rather than finalising SME as a separate feature we use the existing SVE finalisation to also finalise SME, a new define KVM_ARM_VCPU_VEC is provided to help make user code clearer. Finalising SVE and SME separately would introduce complication with register access since finalising SVE makes the SVE registers writeable by userspace and doing multiple finalisations results in an error being reported. Dealing with a state where the SVE registers are writeable due to one of SVE or SME being finalised but may have their VL changed by the other being finalised seems like needless complexity with minimal practical utility, it seems clearer to just express directly that only one finalisation can be done in the ABI. Access to the floating point registers follows the architecture: - When both SVE and SME are present: - If PSTATE.SM == 0 the vector length used for the Z and P registers is the SVE vector length. - If PSTATE.SM == 1 the vector length used for the Z and P registers is the SME vector length. - If only SME is present: - If PSTATE.SM == 0 the Z and P registers are inaccessible and the floating point state accessed via the encodings for the V registers. - If PSTATE.SM == 1 the vector length used for the Z and P registers - The SME specific ZA and ZT0 registers are only accessible if SVCR.ZA is 1. The VMM must understand this, in particular when loading state SVCR should be configured before other state. It should be noted that while the architecture refers to PSTATE.SM and PSTATE.ZA these PSTATE bits are not preserved in SPSR_ELx, they are only accessible via SVCR. There are a large number of subfeatures for SME, most of which only offer additional instructions but some of which (SME2 and FA64) add architectural state. These are configured via the ID registers as per usual. Protected KVM supported, with the implementation maintaining the existing restriction that the hypervisor will refuse to run if streaming mode or ZA is enabled. This both simplfies the code and avoids the need to allocate storage for host ZA and ZT0 state, there seems to be little practical use case for supporting this and the memory usage would be non-trivial. The new KVM_ARM_VCPU_VEC feature and ZA and ZT0 registers have not been added to the get-reg-list selftest, the idea of supporting additional features there without restructuring the program to generate all possible feature combinations has been rejected. I will post a separate series which does that restructuring.

[PATCH v4 0/3] Support comma-separated symbols and :entry/:exit

by Seokwoo Chung (Ryan)

Extend fprobe to support list-style filters and explicit entry/exit suffixes. Currentyl, fprobe only supports a single symbol (or wildcard) per event. This patch allows users to specify a comma-separated list of symbols. New Syntax: - f:[GRP/][EVENT] func1,func2,func3:entry - f:[GRP/][EVENT] func1,func2,func3:exit Logic changes: - Refactor parsing logic into 'parse_fprobe_spec' - Support '!' prefix for exclusion - Disable BTF lookup ('ctx->funcname = NULL') when a list or wildcard is used, as a single function signature cannot apply to multiple functions. - Reject legacy '%return' suffix when used with lists or wildcards - Update tracefs/README Testing: Verified on x86_64 via QEMU. Checked registration of lists, exclusions, and explicit suffixes. Verified rejection of invalid syntax including trailing commas and mixed legacy/new syntax. Seokwoo Chung (Ryan) (3): docs: tracing/fprobe: Document list filters and :entry/:exit tracing/fprobe: Support comma-separated symbols and :entry/:exit selftests/ftrace: Add accept cases for fprobe list syntax Changes in v4: - Added validation to reject trailing commas (empty tokens) in symbol lists - Added vaildation to reject mixed of list syntax with %return suffix - Refactored parse_fprobe_spec to user __free(kfree) for automatic memory cleanup - Removed the now-unused parse_symbol_and_return function to avoid compiler warnings. - Tigtened %return detection to ensure it only matches as a strict suffix, not a substring - Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250904103219.f4937968362bfff1ecd3f004@kernel… Documentation/trace/fprobetrace.rst | 17 +- kernel/trace/trace.c | 3 +- kernel/trace/trace_fprobe.c | 209 ++++++++++++++---- .../ftrace/test.d/dynevent/fprobe_list.tc | 92 ++++++++ 4 files changed, 269 insertions(+), 52 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/test.d/dynevent/fprobe_list.tc -- 2.43.0

[RFC net-next 00/13] ovpn: new features + kselftests

by Antonio Quartulli

Dear all, This patchset is just a respin of my latest PR to net-next, including all modifications requested by Jakub and Sabrina. However, this time I am also adding patches targeting selftest/net/ovpn, as they come in handy for testing the new features (originally I wanted them to be a separate PR, but it doesn't indeed make a lot of sense). This said, since these kselftest patches are quite invasive, I didn't feel confident with sending them in a PR right away, but I rather wanted some feedback from Sabrina and Shuah first, if possible. So here we go. Once I get some approval on this batch, I'll send then send them all to net-next again as PRv2. Thanks a lot!

[PATCH net] selftests: bonding: add delay before each xvlan_over_bond connectivity check

by Hangbin Liu

Jakub reported increased flakiness in bond_macvlan_ipvlan.sh on regular kernel, while the tests consistently pass on a debug kernel. This suggests a timing-sensitive issue. To mitigate this, introduce a short sleep before each xvlan_over_bond connectivity check. The delay helps ensure neighbor and route cache have fully converged before verifying connectivity. The sleep interval is kept minimal since check_connection() is invoked nearly 100 times during the test.
