Pull seccomp updates from Kees Cook: "These are x86-specific, but I carried these since they're also seccomp-specific. This flips the defaults for spec_store_bypass_disable and spectre_v2_user from "seccomp" to "prctl", as enough time has passed to allow system owners to have updated the defensive stances of their various workloads, and it's long overdue to unpessimize seccomp threads. Extensive rationale and details are in Andrea's main patch. Summary: - set spec_store_bypass_disable & spectre_v2_user to prctl (Andrea Arcangeli)" * tag 'seccomp-v5.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: x86: deduplicate the spectre_v2_user documentation x86: change default to spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl spectre_v2_user=prctl

Pull overflow updates from Kees Cook: "The end goal of the current buffer overflow detection work[0] is to gain full compile-time and run-time coverage of all detectable buffer overflows seen via array indexing or memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(). The str*() family of functions already have full coverage. While much of the work for these changes have been on-going for many releases (i.e. 0-element and 1-element array replacements, as well as avoiding false positives and fixing discovered overflows[1]), this series contains the foundational elements of several related buffer overflow detection improvements by providing new common helpers and FORTIFY_SOURCE changes needed to gain the introspection required for compiler visibility into array sizes. Also included are a handful of already Acked instances using the helpers (or related clean-ups), with many more waiting at the ready to be taken via subsystem-specific trees[2]. The new helpers are: - struct_group() for gaining struct member range introspection - memset_after() and memset_startat() for clearing to the end of structures - DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() for using flex arrays in unions or alone in structs Also included is the beginning of the refactoring of FORTIFY_SOURCE to support memcpy() introspection, fix missing and regressed coverage under GCC, and to prepare to fix the currently broken Clang support. Finishing this work is part of the larger series[0], but depends on all the false positives and buffer overflow bug fixes to have landed already and those that depend on this series to land. As part of the FORTIFY_SOURCE refactoring, a set of both a compile-time and run-time tests are added for FORTIFY_SOURCE and the mem*()-family functions respectively. The compile time tests have found a legitimate (though corner-case) bug[6] already. Please note that the appearance of "panic" and "BUG" in the FORTIFY_SOURCE refactoring are the result of relocating existing code, and no new use of those code-paths are expected nor desired. Finally, there are two tree-wide conversions for 0-element arrays and flexible array unions to gain sane compiler introspection coverage that result in no known object code differences. After this series (and the changes that have now landed via netdev and usb), we are very close to finally being able to build with -Warray-bounds and -Wzero-length-bounds. However, due corner cases in GCC[3] and Clang[4], I have not included the last two patches that turn on these options, as I don't want to introduce any known warnings to the build.

I had missed a semantic conflict between commit d389a4a8 ("mm: Add folio flag manipulation functions") from the folio tree, and commit eac96c3e ("mm: filemap: check if THP has hwpoisoned subpage for PMD page fault") that added a new set of page flags. My build tests had too many options enabled, which hid this issue. But if you didn't have MEMORY_FAILURE or TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE enabled, you'd end up with build errors like this: include/linux/page-flags.h:806:29: error: macro "PAGEFLAG_FALSE" requires 2 arguments, but only 1 given 806 | PAGEFLAG_FALSE(HasHWPoisoned) | ^ due to the missing lowercase name used for folio function naming.

Pull x86 fpu updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Cleanup of extable fixup handling to be more robust, which in turn allows to make the FPU exception fixups more robust as well. - Change the return code for signal frame related failures from explicit error codes to a boolean fail/success as that's all what the calling code evaluates. - A large refactoring of the FPU code to prepare for adding AMX support: - Distangle the public header maze and remove especially the misnomed kitchen sink internal.h which is despite it's name included all over the place. - Add a proper abstraction for the register buffer storage (struct fpstate) which allows to dynamically size the buffer at runtime by flipping the pointer to the buffer container from the default container which is embedded in task_struct::tread::fpu to a dynamically allocated container with a larger register buffer. - Convert the code over to the new fpstate mechanism. - Consolidate the KVM FPU handling by moving the FPU related code into the FPU core which removes the number of exports and avoids adding even more export when AMX has to be supported in KVM. This also removes duplicated code which was of course unnecessary different and incomplete in the KVM copy. - Simplify the KVM FPU buffer handling by utilizing the new fpstate container and just switching the buffer pointer from the user space buffer to the KVM guest buffer when entering vcpu_run() and flipping it back when leaving the function. This cuts the memory requirements of a vCPU for FPU buffers in half and avoids pointless memory copy operations. This also solves the so far unresolved problem of adding AMX support because the current FPU buffer handling of KVM inflicted a circular dependency between adding AMX support to the core and to KVM. With the new scheme of switching fpstate AMX support can be added to the core code without affecting KVM. - Replace various variables with proper data structures so the extra information required for adding dynamically enabled FPU features (AMX) can be added in one place - Add AMX (Advanced Matrix eXtensions) support (finally): AMX is a large XSTATE component which is going to be available with Saphire Rapids XEON CPUs. The feature comes with an extra MSR (MSR_XFD) which allows to trap the (first) use of an AMX related instruction, which has two benefits: 1) It allows the kernel to control access to the feature 2) It allows the kernel to dynamically allocate the large register state buffer instead of burdening every task with the the extra 8K or larger state storage. It would have been great to gain this kind of control already with AVX512. The support comes with the following infrastructure components: 1) arch_prctl() to - read the supported features (equivalent to XGETBV(0)) - read the permitted features for a task - request permission for a dynamically enabled feature Permission is granted per process, inherited on fork() and cleared on exec(). The permission policy of the kernel is restricted to sigaltstack size validation, but the syscall obviously allows further restrictions via seccomp etc. 2) A stronger sigaltstack size validation for sys_sigaltstack(2) which takes granted permissions and the potentially resulting larger signal frame into account. This mechanism can also be used to enforce factual sigaltstack validation independent of dynamic features to help with finding potential victims of the 2K sigaltstack size constant which is broken since AVX512 support was added. 3) Exception handling for #NM traps to catch first use of a extended feature via a new cause MSR. If the exception was caused by the use of such a feature, the handler checks permission for that feature. If permission has not been granted, the handler sends a SIGILL like the #UD handler would do if the feature would have been disabled in XCR0. If permission has been granted, then a new fpstate which fits the larger buffer requirement is allocated. In the unlikely case that this allocation fails, the handler sends SIGSEGV to the task. That's not elegant, but unavoidable as the other discussed options of preallocation or full per task permissions come with their own set of horrors for kernel and/or userspace. So this is the lesser of the evils and SIGSEGV caused by unexpected memory allocation failures is not a fundamentally new concept either. When allocation succeeds, the fpstate properties are filled in to reflect the extended feature set and the resulting sizes, the fpu::fpstate pointer is updated accordingly and the trap is disarmed for this task permanently. 4) Enumeration and size calculations 5) Trap switching via MSR_XFD The XFD (eXtended Feature Disable) MSR is context switched with the same life time rules as the FPU register state itself. The mechanism is keyed off with a static key which is default disabled so !AMX equipped CPUs have zero overhead. On AMX enabled CPUs the overhead is limited by comparing the tasks XFD value with a per CPU shadow variable to avoid redundant MSR writes. In case of switching from a AMX using task to a non AMX using task or vice versa, the extra MSR write is obviously inevitable. All other places which need to be aware of the variable feature sets and resulting variable sizes are not affected at all because they retrieve the information (feature set, sizes) unconditonally from the fpstate properties. 6) Enable the new AMX states Note, this is relatively new code despite the fact that AMX support is in the works for more than a year now. The big refactoring of the FPU code, which allowed to do a proper integration has been started exactly 3 weeks ago. Refactoring of the existing FPU code and of the original AMX patches took a week and has been subject to extensive review and testing. The only fallout which has not been caught in review and testing right away was restricted to AMX enabled systems, which is completely irrelevant for anyone outside Intel and their early access program. There might be dragons lurking as usual, but so far the fine grained refactoring has held up and eventual yet undetected fallout is bisectable and should be easily addressable before the 5.16 release. Famous last words...

Commit ccaa66c8 reinstated the kmap/kunmap that had been dropped in commit 8c945d32 ("btrfs: compression: drop kmap/kunmap from lzo"). However, it seems to have done so incorrectly due to the change not reverting cleanly, and lzo_decompress_bio() ended up not having a matching "kunmap()" to the "kmap()" that was put back. Also, any assert that the page pointer is not NULL should be before the kmap() of said pointer, since otherwise you'd just oops in the kmap() before the assert would even trigger. I noticed this when trying to verify my btrfs merge, and things not adding up. I'm doing this fixup before re-doing my merge, because this commit needs to also be backported to 5.15 (after verification from the btrfs people).

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang: "There are some new features available for this cycle. Firstly, EROFS LZMA algorithm support, specifically called MicroLZMA, is available as an option for embedded devices, LiveCDs and/or as the secondary auxiliary compression algorithm besides the primary algorithm in one file. In order to better support the LZMA fixed-sized output compression, especially for 4KiB pcluster size (which has lowest memory pressure thus useful for memory-sensitive scenarios), Lasse introduced a new LZMA header/container format called MicroLZMA to minimize the original LZMA1 header (for example, we don't need to waste 4-byte dictionary size and another 8-byte uncompressed size, which can be calculated by fs directly, for each pcluster) and enable EROFS fixed-sized output compression. Note that MicroLZMA can also be later used by other things in addition to EROFS too where wasting minimal amount of space for headers is important and it can be only compiled by enabling XZ_DEC_MICROLZMA. MicroLZMA has been supported by the latest upstream XZ embedded [1] & XZ utils [2], apply the latest related XZ embedded upstream patches by the XZ author Lasse here. Secondly, multiple device is also supported in this cycle, which is designed for multi-layer container images. By working together with inter-layer data deduplication and compression, we can achieve the next high-performance container image solution. Our team will announce the new Nydus container image service [3] implementation with new RAFS v6 (EROFS-compatible) format in Open Source Summit 2021 China [4] soon. Besides, the secondary compression head support and readmore decompression strategy are also included in this cycle. There are also some minor bugfixes and cleanups, as always.
