Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie:
"New xilinx displayport driver, AMD support for two new GPUs (more
header files), i915 initial support for RocketLake and some work on
their DG1 (discrete chip).
The core also grew some lockdep annotations to try and constrain what
drivers do with dma-fences, and added some documentation on why the
idea of indefinite fences doesn't work.

Pull LED updates from Pavel Machek:
"Okay, so... this one is interesting. RGB LEDs are very common, and we
need to have some kind of support for them. Multicolor is for
arbitrary set of LEDs in one package, RGB is for LEDs that can produce
full range of colors. We do not have real multicolor LED that is not
RGB in the pipeline, so that one is disabled for now.
You can expect this saga to continue with next pull requests"

Pull hmm updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"Ralph has been working on nouveau's use of hmm_range_fault() and
migrate_vma() which resulted in this small series. It adds reporting
of the page table order from hmm_range_fault() and some optimization
of migrate_vma():
- Report the size of the page table mapping out of hmm_range_fault().
This makes it easier to establish a large/huge/etc mapping in the
device's page table.
- Allow devices to ignore the invalidations during migration in cases
where the migration is not going to change pages.
For instance migrating pages to a device does not require the
device to invalidate pages already in the device.
- Update nouveau and hmm_tests to use the above"

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v5.9 kernel cycle.
There is nothing too exciting in it, but a new macro that fixes a
build failure on a minor ARM32 platform that appeared yesterday is
part of it so we better merge it.
Core changes:
- Introduce the for_each_requested_gpio() macro to help in dependent
code all over the place. Also patch a few locations to use it while
we are at it.
- Split out the sysfs code into its own file.
- Split out the character device code into its own file, then make a
set of refactorings and improvements to this code. We are setting
the stage to revamp the userspace API a bit in the next cycle.
- Fix a whole slew of kerneldoc that was wrong or missing.
New drivers:
- The PCA953x driver now supports the PCAL9535.
Driver improvements:
- A host of incremental modernizations and improvements to the
PCA953x driver.
- Incremental improvements to the Xilinx Zynq driver.
- Some improvements to the GPIO aggregator driver.
- I ran all over the place switching all threaded and other drivers
requesting their own IRQ while using the core GPIO IRQ helpers to
pass the GPIO irq chip as a template instead of calling the
explicit set-up functions. Next merge window we may retire the old
code altogether"

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the "big" set of changes to the driver core, and some drivers
using the changes, for 5.9-rc1.
"Biggest" thing in here is the device link exposure in sysfs, to help
to tame the madness that is SoC device tree representations and driver
interactions with it.
Other stuff in here that is interesting is:
- device probe log helper so that drivers can report problems in a
unified way easier.
- devres functions added
- DEVICE_ATTR_ADMIN_* macro added to make it harder to write
incorrect sysfs file permissions
- documentation cleanups
- ability for debugfs to be present in the kernel, yet not exposed to
userspace. Needed for systems that want it enabled, but do not
trust users, so they can still use some kernel functions that were
otherwise disabled.
- other minor fixes and cleanups

Pull x86 fsgsbase from Thomas Gleixner:
"Support for FSGSBASE. Almost 5 years after the first RFC to support
it, this has been brought into a shape which is maintainable and
actually works.
This final version was done by Sasha Levin who took it up after Intel
dropped the ball. Sasha discovered that the SGX (sic!) offerings out
there ship rogue kernel modules enabling FSGSBASE behind the kernels
back which opens an instantanious unpriviledged root hole.
The FSGSBASE instructions provide a considerable speedup of the
context switch path and enable user space to write GSBASE without
kernel interaction. This enablement requires careful handling of the
exception entries which go through the paranoid entry path as they
can no longer rely on the assumption that user GSBASE is positive (as
enforced via prctl() on non FSGSBASE enabled systemn).
All other entries (syscalls, interrupts and exceptions) can still just
utilize SWAPGS unconditionally when the entry comes from user space.
Converting these entries to use FSGSBASE has no benefit as SWAPGS is
only marginally slower than WRGSBASE and locating and retrieving the
kernel GSBASE value is not a free operation either. The real benefit
of RD/WRGSBASE is the avoidance of the MSR reads and writes.
The changes come with appropriate selftests and have held up in field
testing against the (sanitized) Graphene-SGX driver"

Pull close_range() implementation from Christian Brauner:
"This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a
range of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling
task.
This is coordinated with the FreeBSD folks which have copied our
version of this syscall and in the meantime have already merged it in
April 2019:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=359836
The syscall originally came up in a discussion around the new mount
API and making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During
this discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall.
First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task.
This can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim):
/* that exec is sensitive */
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
/* we don't want anything past stderr here */
close_range(3, ~0U);
execve(....);
The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that
file descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the
fact that we can't just switch them over without massively regressing
userspace. For a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of
closing all file descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service
managers, programming language standard libraries, container managers
etc.).
Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file
descriptors by parsing through /proc/<pid>/fd/* and calling close() on
each file descriptor and other hacks. From looking at various
large(ish) userspace code bases this or similar patterns are very
common in service managers, container runtimes, and programming
language runtimes/standard libraries such as Python or Rust.
In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have
procfs mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled
in. In such situations the only way to make sure that all file
descriptors are closed is to call close() on each file descriptor up
to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE, OPEN_MAX trickery.
Based on Linus' suggestion close_range() also comes with a new flag
CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE to more elegantly handle file descriptor dropping
right before exec. This would usually be expressed in the sequence:
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
close_range(3, ~0U);
as pointed out by Linus it might be desirable to have this be a part
of close_range() itself under a new flag CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE which
gets especially handy when we're closing all file descriptors above a
certain threshold.
Test-suite as always included"

Take 2 of msm-next pull, this version drops the OPP patch due to [1],
so I'll send the gpu opp/bw scaling patch after the OPP patch lands.
Since I had to force-push I took the opportunity to rebase on
drm-next, and since you already merged in 5.8-rc6 a few fixes from the
last cycle dropped out.
This time around:
* A bunch more a650/a640 (sm8150/sm8250) display and GPU enablement
and fixes
* Enable dpu dither block for 6bpc panels
* dpu suspend fixes
* dpu fix for cursor on 2nd display
* dsi/mdp5 enablement for sdm630/sdm636/sdm660
I also regenerated the register headers, which accounts for a good
bit of the size this time, because we hadn't re-synced the register
headers since the early days of a6xx bringup.

Pull checkpoint-restore updates from Christian Brauner:
"This enables unprivileged checkpoint/restore of processes.
Given that this work has been going on for quite some time the first
sentence in this summary is hopefully more exciting than the actual
final code changes required. Unprivileged checkpoint/restore has seen
a frequent increase in interest over the last two years and has thus
been one of the main topics for the combined containers &
checkpoint/restore microconference since at least 2018 (cf. [1]).
Here are just the three most frequent use-cases that were brought forward:
- The JVM developers are integrating checkpoint/restore into a Java
VM to significantly decrease the startup time.
- In high-performance computing environment a resource manager will
typically be distributing jobs where users are always running as
non-root. Long-running and "large" processes with significant
startup times are supposed to be checkpointed and restored with
CRIU.
- Container migration as a non-root user.
In all of these scenarios it is either desirable or required to run
without CAP_SYS_ADMIN. The userspace implementation of
checkpoint/restore CRIU already has the pull request for supporting
unprivileged checkpoint/restore up (cf. [2]).
To enable unprivileged checkpoint/restore a new dedicated capability
CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is introduced. This solution has last been
discussed in 2019 in a talk by Google at Linux Plumbers (cf. [1]
"Update on Task Migration at Google Using CRIU") with Adrian and
Nicolas providing the implementation now over the last months. In
essence, this allows the CRIU binary to be installed with the
CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE vfs capability set thereby enabling
unprivileged users to restore processes.
To make this possible the following permissions are altered:
- Selecting a specific PID via clone3() set_tid relaxed from userns
CAP_SYS_ADMIN to CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
- Selecting a specific PID via /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid relaxed
from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
- Accessing /proc/pid/map_files relaxed from init userns
CAP_SYS_ADMIN to init userns CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
- Changing /proc/self/exe from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to userns
CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
Of these four changes the /proc/self/exe change deserves a few words
because the reasoning behind even restricting /proc/self/exe changes
in the first place is just full of historical quirks and tracking this
down was a questionable version of fun that I'd like to spare others.
In short, it is trivial to change /proc/self/exe as an unprivileged
user, i.e. without userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN right now. Either via ptrace()
or by simply intercepting the elf loader in userspace during exec.
Nicolas was nice enough to even provide a POC for the latter (cf. [3])
to illustrate this fact.
The original patchset which introduced PR_SET_MM_MAP had no
permissions around changing the exe link. They too argued that it is
trivial to spoof the exe link already which is true. The argument
brought up against this was that the Tomoyo LSM uses the exe link in
tomoyo_manager() to detect whether the calling process is a policy
manager. This caused changing the exe links to be guarded by userns
CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
All in all this rather se |
