Pull more bcachefs fixes from Kent Overstreet: "Notable user impacting bugs - On multi device filesystems, recovery was looping in btree_trans_too_many_iters(). This checks if a transaction has touched too many btree paths (because of iteration over many keys), and isuses a restart to drop unneeded paths. But it's now possible for some paths to exceed the previous limit without iteration in the interior btree update path, since the transaction commit will do alloc updates for every old and new btree node, and during journal replay we don't use the btree write buffer for locking reasons and thus those updates use btree paths when they wouldn't normally. - Fix a corner case in rebalance when moving extents on a durability=0 device. This wouldn't be hit when a device was formatted with durability=0 since in that case we'll only use it as a write through cache (only cached extents will live on it), but durability can now be changed on an existing device. - bch2_get_acl() could rarely forget to handle a transaction restart; this manifested as the occasional missing acl that came back after dropping caches. - Fix a major performance regression on high iops multithreaded write workloads (only since 6.9-rc1); a previous fix for a deadlock in the interior btree update path to check the journal watermark introduced a dependency on the state of btree write buffer flushing that we didn't want. - Assorted other repair paths and recovery fixes" * tag 'bcachefs-2024-04-10' of https://evilpiepirate.org/git/bcachefs: (25 commits) bcachefs: Fix __bch2_btree_and_journal_iter_init_node_iter() bcachefs: Kill read lock dropping in bch2_btree_node_lock_write_nofail() bcachefs: Fix a race in btree_update_nodes_written() bcachefs: btree_node_scan: Respect member.data_allowed bcachefs: Don't scan for btree nodes when we can reconstruct bcachefs: Fix check_topology() when using node scan bcachefs: fix eytzinger0_find_gt() bcachefs: fix bch2_get_acl() transaction restart handling bcachefs: fix the count of nr_freed_pcpu after changing bc->freed_nonpcpu list bcachefs: Fix gap buffer bug in bch2_journal_key_insert_take() bcachefs: Rename struct field swap to prevent macro naming collision MAINTAINERS: Add entry for bcachefs documentation Documentation: filesystems: Add bcachefs toctree bcachefs: JOURNAL_SPACE_LOW bcachefs: Disable errors=panic for BCH_IOCTL_FSCK_OFFLINE bcachefs: Fix BCH_IOCTL_FSCK_OFFLINE for encrypted filesystems bcachefs: fix rand_delete unit test bcachefs: fix ! vs ~ typo in __clear_bit_le64() bcachefs: Fix rebalance from durability=0 device bcachefs: Print shutdown journal sequence number ...

Merge tag 'probes-fixes-v6.9-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull probes fixes from Masami Hiramatsu: "Fix possible use-after-free issue on kprobe registration. check_kprobe_address_safe() uses `is_module_text_address()` and `__module_text_address()` separately. As a result, if the probed address is in a module that is being unloaded, the first `is_module_text_address()` might return true but then the `__module_text_address()` call might return NULL if the module has been unloaded between the two. The result is that kprobe believes the probe is on the kernel text, and skips getting a module reference. In this case, when it arms a breakpoint on the probe address, it may cause a use-after-free. To fix this issue, only use `__module_text_address()` once and get a reference to the module then. If it fails, reject the probe" * tag 'probes-fixes-v6.9-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: kprobes: Fix possible use-after-free issue on kprobe registration

The cros_ec_uart_probe() function calls devm_serdev_device_open() before it calls serdev_device_set_client_ops(). This can trigger a NULL pointer dereference: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 ... Call Trace: <TASK> ... ? ttyport_receive_buf A simplified version of crashing code is as follows: static inline size_t serdev_controller_receive_buf(struct serdev_controller *ctrl, const u8 *data, size_t count) { struct serdev_device *serdev = ctrl->serdev; if (!serdev || !serdev->ops->receive_buf) // CRASH! return 0; return serdev->ops->receive_buf(serdev, data, count); } It assumes that if SERPORT_ACTIVE is set and serdev exists, serdev->ops will also exist. This conflicts with the existing cros_ec_uart_probe() logic, as it first calls devm_serdev_device_open() (which sets SERPORT_ACTIVE), and only later sets serdev->ops via serdev_device_set_client_ops(). Commit 01f95d42 ("platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: fix race condition") attempted to fix a similar race condition, but while doing so, made the window of error for this race condition to happen much wider. Attempt to fix the race condition again, making sure we fully setup before calling devm_serdev_device_open().

When unloading a module, its state is changing MODULE_STATE_LIVE -> MODULE_STATE_GOING -> MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED. Each change will take a time. `is_module_text_address()` and `__module_text_address()` works with MODULE_STATE_LIVE and MODULE_STATE_GOING. If we use `is_module_text_address()` and `__module_text_address()` separately, there is a chance that the first one is succeeded but the next one is failed because module->state becomes MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED between those operations. In `check_kprobe_address_safe()`, if the second `__module_text_address()` is failed, that is ignored because it expected a kernel_text address. But it may have failed simply because module->state has been changed to MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED. In this case, arm_kprobe() will try to modify non-exist module text address (use-after-free). To fix this problem, we should not use separated `is_module_text_address()` and `__module_text_address()`, but use only `__module_text_address()` once and do `try_module_get(module)` which is only available with MODULE_STATE_LIVE.

BHI mitigation mode spectre_bhi=auto does not deploy the software mitigation by default. In a cloud environment, it is a likely scenario where userspace is trusted but the guests are not trusted. Deploying system wide mitigation in such cases is not desirable. Update the auto mode to unconditionally mitigate against malicious guests. Deploy the software sequence at VMexit in auto mode also, when hardware mitigation is not available. Unlike the force =on mode, software sequence is not deployed at syscalls in auto mode.

Branch history clearing software sequences and hardware control BHI_DIS_S were defined to mitigate Branch History Injection (BHI). Add cmdline spectre_bhi={on|off|auto} to control BHI mitigation: auto - Deploy the hardware mitigation BHI_DIS_S, if available. on - Deploy the hardware mitigation BHI_DIS_S, if available, otherwise deploy the software sequence at syscall entry and VMexit. off - Turn off BHI mitigation. The default is auto mode which does not deploy the software sequence mitigation. This is because of the hardening done in the syscall dispatch path, which is the likely target of BHI.

Branch History Injection (BHI) attacks may allow a malicious application to influence indirect branch prediction in kernel by poisoning the branch history. eIBRS isolates indirect branch targets in ring0. The BHB can still influence the choice of indirect branch predictor entry, and although branch predictor entries are isolated between modes when eIBRS is enabled, the BHB itself is not isolated between modes. Alder Lake and new processors supports a hardware control BHI_DIS_S to mitigate BHI. For older processors Intel has released a software sequence to clear the branch history on parts that don't support BHI_DIS_S. Add support to execute the software sequence at syscall entry and VMexit to overwrite the branch history. For now, branch history is not cleared at interrupt entry, as malicious applications are not believed to have sufficient control over the registers, since previous register state is cleared at interrupt entry. Researchers continue to poke at this area and it may become necessary to clear at interrupt entry as well in the future. This mitigation is only defined here. It is enabled later.
