       - Add a new IMA/EVM maintainer and reviewer
      
       - Disable EVM on overlayfs
      
         The EVM HMAC and the original file signatures contain filesystem
         specific metadata (e.g. i_ino, i_generation and s_uuid), preventing
         the security.evm xattr from directly being copied up to the overlay.
         Further before calculating and writing out the overlay file's EVM
         HMAC, EVM must first verify the existing backing file's
         'security.evm' value.
      
         For now until a solution is developed, disable EVM on overlayfs.
      
       - One bug fix and two cleanups

      Pull security module updates from Paul Moore:
      
       - Add three new syscalls: lsm_list_modules(), lsm_get_self_attr(), and
         lsm_set_self_attr().
      
         The first syscall simply lists the LSMs enabled, while the second and
         third get and set the current process' LSM attributes. Yes, these
         syscalls may provide similar functionality to what can be found under
         /proc or /sys, but they were designed to support multiple,
         simultaneaous (stacked) LSMs from the start as opposed to the current
         /proc based solutions which were created at a time when only one LSM
         was allowed to be active at a given time.
      
         We have spent considerable time discussing ways to extend the
         existing /proc interfaces to support multiple, simultaneaous LSMs and
         even our best ideas have been far too ugly to support as a kernel
         API; after +20 years in the kernel, I felt the LSM layer had
         established itself enough to justify a handful of syscalls.
      
         Support amongst the individual LSM developers has been nearly
         unanimous, with a single objection coming from Tetsuo (TOMOYO) as he
         is worried that the LSM_ID_XXX token concept will make it more
         difficult for out-of-tree LSMs to survive. Several members of the LSM
         community have demonstrated the ability for out-of-tree LSMs to
         continue to exist by picking high/unused LSM_ID values as well as
         pointing out that many kernel APIs rely on integer identifiers, e.g.
         syscalls (!), but unfortunately Tetsuo's objections remain.
      
         My personal opinion is that while I have no interest in penalizing
         out-of-tree LSMs, I'm not going to penalize in-tree development to
         support out-of-tree development, and I view this as a necessary step
         forward to support the push for expanded LSM stacking and reduce our
         reliance on /proc and /sys which has occassionally been problematic
         for some container users. Finally, we have included the linux-api
         folks on (all?) recent revisions of the patchset and addressed all of
         their concerns.
      
       - Add a new security_file_ioctl_compat() LSM hook to handle the 32-bit
         ioctls on 64-bit systems problem.
      
         This patch includes support for all of the existing LSMs which
         provide ioctl hooks, although it turns out only SELinux actually
         cares about the individual ioctls. It is worth noting that while
         Casey (Smack) and Tetsuo (TOMOYO) did not give explicit ACKs to this
         patch, they did both indicate they are okay with the changes.
      
       - Fix a potential memory leak in the CALIPSO code when IPv6 is disabled
         at boot.
      
         While it's good that we are fixing this, I doubt this is something
         users are seeing in the wild as you need to both disable IPv6 and
         then attempt to configure IPv6 labeled networking via
         NetLabel/CALIPSO; that just doesn't make much sense.
      
         Normally this would go through netdev, but Jakub asked me to take
         this patch and of all the trees I maintain, the LSM tree seemed like
         the best fit.
      
       - Update the LSM MAINTAINERS entry with additional information about
         our process docs, patchwork, bug reporting, etc.
      
         I also noticed that the Lockdown LSM is missing a dedicated
         MAINTAINERS entry so I've added that to the pull request. I've been
         working with one of the major Lockdown authors/contributors to see if
         they are willing to step up and assume a Lockdown maintainer role;
         hopefully that will happen soon, but in the meantime I'll continue to
         look after it.
      
       - Add a handful of mailmap entries for Serge Hallyn and myself.

      Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
      
       - Add a new SELinux initial SID, SECINITSID_INIT, to represent
         userspace processes started before the SELinux policy is loaded in
         early boot.
      
         Prior to this patch all processes were marked as SECINITSID_KERNEL
         before the SELinux policy was loaded, making it difficult to
         distinquish early boot userspace processes from the kernel in the
         SELinux policy.
      
         For most users this will be a non-issue as the policy is loaded early
         enough during boot, but for users who load their SELinux policy
         relatively late, this should make it easier to construct meaningful
         security policies.
      
       - Cleanups to the selinuxfs code by Al, mostly on VFS related issues
         during a policy reload.
      
         The commit description has more detail, but the quick summary is that
         we are replacing a disconnected directory approach with a temporary
         directory that we swapover at the end of the reload.
      
       - Fix an issue where the input sanity checking on socket bind()
         operations was slightly different depending on the presence of
         SELinux.
      
         This is caused by the placement of the LSM hooks in the generic
         socket layer as opposed to the protocol specific bind() handler where
         the protocol specific sanity checks are performed. Mickaël has
         mentioned that he is working to fix this, but in the meantime we just
         ensure that we are replicating the checks properly.
      
         We need to balance the placement of the LSM hooks with the number of
         LSM hooks; pushing the hooks down into the protocol layers is likely
         not the right answer.
      
       - Update the avc_has_perm_noaudit() prototype to better match the
         function definition.
      
       - Migrate from using partial_name_hash() to full_name_hash() the
         filename transition hash table.
      
         This improves the quality of the code and has the potential for a
         minor performance bump.
      
       - Consolidate some open coded SELinux access vector comparisions into a
         single new function, avtab_node_cmp(), and use that instead.
      
         A small, but nice win for code quality and maintainability.
      
       - Updated the SELinux MAINTAINERS entry with additional information
         around process, bug reporting, etc.
      
         We're also updating some of our "official" roles: dropping Eric Paris
         and adding Ondrej as a reviewer.
      
       - Cleanup the coding style crimes in security/selinux/include.
      
         While I'm not a fan of code churn, I am pushing for more automated
         code checks that can be done at the developer level and one of the
         obvious things to check for is coding style.
      
         In an effort to start from a "good" base I'm slowly working through
         our source files cleaning them up with the help of clang-format and
         good ol' fashioned human eyeballs; this has the first batch of these
         changes.
      
         I've been splitting the changes up per-file to help reduce the impact
         if backports are required (either for LTS or distro kernels), and I
         expect the some of the larger files, e.g. hooks.c and ss/services.c,
         will likely need to be split even further.
      
       - Cleanup old, outdated comments.

      Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
       "The audit updates are fairly minor with only two patches:
      
         - Send an audit ACK to userspace immediately upon receiving an auditd
           registration event as opposed to waiting until the registration has
           been fully processed and the audit backlog starts filling the
           netlink buffers.
      
           Sending the ACK earlier, as done here, is still safe as the
           operation should not fail at the point when the ACK is done, and
           doing so helps avoid the ACK being dropped in extreme situations.
      
         - Update the audit MAINTAINERS entry with additional information.
      
           There isn't anything in this update that should be new to regular
           contributors or list subscribers, but I'm pushing to start
           documenting our processes, conventions, etc. and this seems like an
           important part of that"

      Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
      
       - SLUB: delayed freezing of CPU partial slabs (Chengming Zhou)
      
         Freezing is an operation involving double_cmpxchg() that makes a slab
         exclusive for a particular CPU. Chengming noticed that we use it also
         in situations where we are not yet installing the slab as the CPU
         slab, because freezing also indicates that the slab is not on the
         shared list. This results in redundant freeze/unfreeze operation and
         can be avoided by marking separately the shared list presence by
         reusing the PG_workingset flag.
      
         This approach neatly avoids the issues described in 9b1ea29b
         ("Revert "mm, slub: consider rest of partial list if acquire_slab()
         fails"") as we can now grab a slab from the shared list in a quick
         and guaranteed way without the cmpxchg_double() operation that
         amplifies the lock contention and can fail.
      
         As a result, lkp has reported 34.2% improvement of
         stress-ng.rawudp.ops_per_sec
      
       - SLAB removal and SLUB cleanups (Vlastimil Babka)
      
         The SLAB allocator has been deprecated since 6.5 and nobody has
         objected so far. We agreed at LSF/MM to wait until the next LTS,
         which is 6.6, so we should be good to go now.
      
         This doesn't yet erase all traces of SLAB outside of mm/ so some dead
         code, comments or documentation remain, and will be cleaned up
         gradually (some series are already in the works).
      
         Removing the choice of allocators has already allowed to simplify and
         optimize the code wiring up the kmalloc APIs to the SLUB
         implementation.

      Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
      
       - Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF
         helper so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies.
         While cgroup1 is mostly in maintenance mode, this addition is very
         small while having an outsized usefulness for users who are still on
         cgroup1. Yafang also optimized root cgroup list access by making it
         RCU protected in the process.
      
       - Waiman Long optimized rstat operation leading to substantially lower
         and more consistent lock hold time while flushing the hierarchical
         statistics. As the lock can be acquired briefly in various hot paths,
         this reduction has cascading benefits.
      
       - Waiman also improved the quality of isolation for cpuset's isolated
         partitions. CPUs which are allocated to isolated partitions are now
         excluded from running unbound work items and cpu_is_isolated() test
         which is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference now includes
         cpuset isolated CPUs. While it isn't there yet, the hope is
         eventually reaching parity with the isolation level provided by the
         `isolcpus` boot param but in a dynamic manner.

      arm64: Update __NR_compat_syscalls for statmount/listmount · f0a78b3e
      Florian Fainelli authored
      Commit d8b0f546 ("wire up syscalls for statmount/listmount") added
      two new system calls to arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h but forgot to
      update the __NR_compat_syscalls number, thus causing the following build
      failures:
      
        arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h:922:24: error: array index in initializer exceeds array bounds
          922 | #define __NR_statmount 457
              |                        ^~~
        arch/arm64/kernel/sys32.c:130:34: note: in definition of macro '__SYSCALL'
          130 | #define __SYSCALL(nr, sym)      [nr] = __arm64_##sym,
              |                                  ^~
      
      Bump up the number by two to accomodate for the new system calls added.

      mm, treewide: rename MAX_ORDER to MAX_PAGE_ORDER · 5e0a760b
      Kirill A. Shutemov authored
      commit 23baf831 ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely") has
      changed the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive.  This has caused
      issues with code that was not yet upstream and depended on the previous
      definition.
      
      To draw attention to the altered meaning of the define, rename MAX_ORDER
      to MAX_PAGE_ORDER.

      mm, treewide: introduce NR_PAGE_ORDERS · fd377218
      Kirill A. Shutemov authored
      NR_PAGE_ORDERS defines the number of page orders supported by the page
      allocator, ranging from 0 to MAX_ORDER, MAX_ORDER + 1 in total.
      
      NR_PAGE_ORDERS assists in defining arrays of page orders and allows for
      more natural iteration over them.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull vfs cachefiles updates from Christian Brauner:
       "This contains improvements for on-demand cachefiles.
      
        If the daemon crashes and the on-demand cachefiles fd is unexpectedly
        closed in-flight requests and subsequent read operations associated
        with the fd will fail with EIO. This causes issues in various
        scenarios as this failure is currently unrecoverable.
      
        The work contained in this pull request introduces a failover mode and
        enables the daemon to recover in-flight requested-related objects. A
        restarted daemon will be able to process requests as usual.
      
        This requires that in-flight requests are stored during daemon crash
        or while the daemon is offline. In addition, a handle to
        /dev/cachefiles needs to be stored.
      
        This can be done by e.g., systemd's fdstore (cf. [1]) which enables
        the restarted daemon to recover state.
      
        Three new states are introduced in this patchset:
      
         (1) CLOSE
             Object is closed by the daemon.
      
         (2) OPEN
             Object is open and ready for processing. IOW, the open request
             has been handled successfully.
      
         (3) REOPENING
             Object has been previously closed and is now reopened due to a
             read request.
      
        A restarted daemon can recover the /dev/cachefiles fd from systemd's
        fdstore and writes "restore" to the device. This causes the object
        state to be reset from CLOSE to REOPENING and reinitializes the
        object.
      
        The daemon may now handle the open request. Any in-flight operations
        are restored and handled avoiding interruptions for users"
