Per-domain and global VIRQs must be bound on CPU 0, and bind_virq_to_irq() sets the per_cpu virq_to_irq at registration time Later, the interrupt can migrate, and info->cpu is updated. When calling __unbind_from_irq(), the per-cpu virq_to_irq is cleared for a different cpu. If bind_virq_to_irq() is called again with CPU 0, the stale irq is returned. There won't be any irq_info for the irq, so things break. Make xen_rebind_evtchn_to_cpu() update the per_cpu virq_to_irq mappings to keep them update to date with the current cpu. This ensures the correct virq_to_irq is cleared in __unbind_from_irq().

It looks like this patch was applied at the wrong place, and further adaptations are needed to work in v5.15. Do you mind dropping it from the v5.15 tree, please? I will send a newer version later on. Cheers, Matt -- Sponsored by the NGI0 Core fund.

The same commit also changed the ptrace() tag access permission check to the VM_MTE vma flag while turning the page flag test into a WARN_ON_ONCE(). Attempting to set the PG_mte_tagged flag early with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT enabled may either hang (after commit d77e59a8fccd "arm64: mte: Lock a page for MTE tag initialisation") or have the flags cleared later during page_alloc_init_late(). In addition, pages_identical() -> memcmp_pages() will reject any comparison with the zero page as it is marked as tagged. Partially revert the above commit to avoid setting PG_mte_tagged on the zero page. Update the __access_remote_tags() warning on untagged pages to ignore the zero page since it is known to have the tags initialised. Note that all user mapping of the zero page are marked as pte_special(). The arm64 set_pte_at() will not call mte_sync_tags() on such pages, so PG_mte_tagged will remain cleared.

[PATCH] rtla/timerlat_bpf: Stop tracing on user latency

by Tomas Glozar

rtla-timerlat allows a *thread* latency threshold to be set via the -T/--thread option. However, the timerlat tracer calls this *total* latency (stop_tracing_total_us), and stops tracing also when the return-to-user latency is over the threshold. Change the behavior of the timerlat BPF program to reflect what the timerlat tracer is doing, to avoid discrepancy between stopping collecting data in the BPF program and stopping tracing in the timerlat tracer.

For userspace tools like CRIU, which rely on the soft-dirty mechanism for incremental snapshots, losing the soft-dirty bit means modified pages are missed, leading to inconsistent memory state after restore. As pointed out by David, the more critical uffd-wp bit is also dropped. This breaks the userfaultfd write-protection mechanism, causing writes to be silently missed by monitoring applications, which can lead to data corruption. Preserve both the soft-dirty and uffd-wp bits from the old PTE when creating the new zeropage mapping to ensure they are correctly tracked.

That's because the in-kernel path-manager uses the 'subflow' endpoints to create subflows only to the initial address and port. If the limits have not been modified to accept ADD_ADDR, the client doesn't try to establish new subflows. If the limits accept ADD_ADDR, the routing routes will be used to select the source IP. The C-flag is typically set when the server is operating behind a legacy Layer 4 load balancer, or using anycast IP address. Clients having their different 'subflow' endpoints setup, don't end up creating multiple subflows as expected, and causing some deployment issues. A special case is then added here: when servers set the C-flag in the MPC and directly sends an ADD_ADDR, this single ADD_ADDR is accepted. The 'subflows' endpoints will then be used with this new remote IP and port. This exception is only allowed when the ADD_ADDR is sent immediately after the 3WHS, and makes the client switching to the 'fully established' mode. After that, 'select_local_address()' will not be able to find any subflows, because 'id_avail_bitmap' will be filled in mptcp_pm_create_subflow_or_signal_addr(), when switching to 'fully established' mode.
