'struct timex' is one of the last users of 'struct timeval' and is only referenced in one place in the kernel any more, to convert the user space timex into the kernel-internal version on sparc64, with a different tv_usec member type. As a preparation for hiding the time_t definition and everything using that in the kernel, change the implementation once more to only convert the timeval member, and then enclose the struct definition in an #ifdef.

If CONFIG_MPTCP=y, CONFIG_MPTCP_IPV6=n, and CONFIG_IPV6=m: ERROR: "mptcp_handle_ipv6_mapped" [net/ipv6/ipv6.ko] undefined! This does not happen if CONFIG_MPTCP_IPV6=y, as CONFIG_MPTCP_IPV6 selects CONFIG_IPV6, and thus forces CONFIG_IPV6 builtin. As exporting a symbol for an empty function would be a bit wasteful, fix this by providing a dummy version of mptcp_handle_ipv6_mapped() for the CONFIG_MPTCP_IPV6=n case. Rename mptcp_handle_ipv6_mapped() to mptcpv6_handle_mapped(), to make it clear this is a pure-IPV6 function, just like mptcpv6_init().

Commit 6cd021a5 ("udp: segment looped gso packets correctly") fixes an issue with rare udp gso multicast packets looped onto the receive path. The stable backport makes the narrowest change to target only these packets, when needed. As opposed to, say, expanding __udp_gso_segment, which is harder to reason to be free from unintended side-effects. But the resulting code is hardly self-describing. Document its purpose and rationale. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

As the MPTCP HMAC test is integrated into the MPTCP code, it can be built only when MPTCP is enabled. Hence when MPTCP is disabled, asking the user if the test code should be enabled is futile. Wrap the whole block of MPTCP-specific config options inside a check for MPTCP. While at it, drop the "default n" for MPTCP_HMAC_TEST, as that is the default anyway.

Pull thread management updates from Christian Brauner: "Sargun Dhillon over the last cycle has worked on the pidfd_getfd() syscall. This syscall allows for the retrieval of file descriptors of a process based on its pidfd. A task needs to have ptrace_may_access() permissions with PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_REALCREDS (suggested by Oleg and Andy) on the target. One of the main use-cases is in combination with seccomp's user notification feature. As a reminder, seccomp's user notification feature was made available in v5.0. It allows a task to retrieve a file descriptor for its seccomp filter. The file descriptor is usually handed of to a more privileged supervising process. The supervisor can then listen for syscall events caught by the seccomp filter of the supervisee and perform actions in lieu of the supervisee, usually emulating syscalls. pidfd_getfd() is needed to expand its uses. There are currently two major users that wait on pidfd_getfd() and one future user: - Netflix, Sargun said, is working on a service mesh where users should be able to connect to a dns-based VIP. When a user connects to e.g. 1.2.3.4:80 that runs e.g. service "foo" they will be redirected to an envoy process. This service mesh uses seccomp user notifications and pidfd to intercept all connect calls and instead of connecting them to 1.2.3.4:80 connects them to e.g. 127.0.0.1:8080. - LXD uses the seccomp notifier heavily to intercept and emulate mknod() and mount() syscalls for unprivileged containers/processes. With pidfd_getfd() more uses-cases e.g. bridging socket connections will be possible. - The patchset has also seen some interest from the browser corner. Right now, Firefox is using a SECCOMP_RET_TRAP sandbox managed by a broker process. In the future glibc will start blocking all signals during dlopen() rendering this type of sandbox impossible. Hence, in the future Firefox will switch to a seccomp-user-nofication based sandbox which also makes use of file descriptor retrieval. The thread for this can be found at https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-12/msg00079.html With pidfd_getfd() it is e.g. possible to bridge socket connections for the supervisee (binding to a privileged port) and taking actions on file descriptors on behalf of the supervisee in general. Sargun's first version was using an ioctl on pidfds but various people pushed for it to be a proper syscall which he duely implemented as well over various review cycles. Selftests are of course included. I've also added instructions how to deal with merge conflicts below. There's also a small fix coming from the kernel mentee project to correctly annotate struct sighand_struct with __rcu to fix various sparse warnings. We've received a few more such fixes and even though they are mostly trivial I've decided to postpone them until after -rc1 since they came in rather late and I don't want to risk introducing build warnings. Finally, there's a new prctl() command PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER which is needed to avoid allocation recursions triggerable by storage drivers that have userspace parts that run in the IO path (e.g. dm-multipath, iscsi, etc). These allocation recursions deadlock the device. The new prctl() allows such privileged userspace components to avoid allocation recursions by setting the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO and PF_LESS_THROTTLE flags. The patch carries the necessary acks from the relevant maintainers and is routed here as part of prctl() thread-management." * tag 'threads-v5.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: prctl: PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER to support controlling memory reclaim sched.h: Annotate sighand_struct with __rcu test: Add test for pidfd getfd arch: wire up pidfd_getfd syscall pid: Implement pidfd_getfd syscall vfs, fdtable: Add fget_task helper

Also refactor code to disallow changing the thin-pool's data device once in use -- doing so guarantees smae lifetime of pool's data device relative to the pool metadata. - Fix DM space maps used by DM thinp and DM cache to avoid reuse of a already used block. This race was identified with extremely heavy snapshot use in the context of DM thin provisioning. - Fix DM raid's table status relative to an active rebuild. - Fix DM crypt to use GFP_NOIO rather than GFP_NOFS in call to skcipher_request_alloc().

Merge tag 'y2038-drivers-for-v5.6-signed' of git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground Pull y2038 updates from Arnd Bergmann: "Core, driver and file system changes These are updates to device drivers and file systems that for some reason or another were not included in the kernel in the previous y2038 series. I've gone through all users of time_t again to make sure the kernel is in a long-term maintainable state, replacing all remaining references to time_t with safe alternatives. Some related parts of the series were picked up into the nfsd, xfs, alsa and v4l2 trees. A final set of patches in linux-mm removes the now unused time_t/timeval/timespec types and helper functions after all five branches are merged for linux-5.6, ensuring that no new users get merged. As a result, linux-5.6, or my backport of the patches to 5.4 [1], should be the first release that can serve as a base for a 32-bit system designed to run beyond year 2038, with a few remaining caveats: - All user space must be compiled with a 64-bit time_t, which will be supported in the coming musl-1.2 and glibc-2.32 releases, along with installed kernel headers from linux-5.6 or higher. - Applications that use the system call interfaces directly need to be ported to use the time64 syscalls added in linux-5.1 in place of the existing system calls. This impacts most users of futex() and seccomp() as well as programming languages that have their own runtime environment not based on libc. - Applications that use a private copy of kernel uapi header files or their contents may need to update to the linux-5.6 version, in particular for sound/asound.h, xfs/xfs_fs.h, linux/input.h, linux/elfcore.h, linux/sockios.h, linux/timex.h and linux/can/bcm.h. - A few remaining interfaces cannot be changed to pass a 64-bit time_t in a compatible way, so they must be configured to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC times or (with a y2106 problem) unsigned 32-bit timestamps. Most importantly this impacts all users of 'struct input_event'. - All y2038 problems that are present on 64-bit machines also apply to 32-bit machines. In particular this affects file systems with on-disk timestamps using signed 32-bit seconds: ext4 with ext3-style small inodes, ext2, xfs (to be fixed soon) and ufs" [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground.git/log/?h=y2038-endgame * tag 'y2038-drivers-for-v5.6-signed' of git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground: (21 commits) Revert "drm/etnaviv: reject timeouts with tv_nsec >= NSEC_PER_SEC" y2038: sh: remove timeval/timespec usage from headers y2038: sparc: remove use of struct timex y2038: rename itimerval to __kernel_old_itimerval y2038: remove obsolete jiffies conversion functions nfs: fscache: use timespec64 in inode auxdata nfs: fix timstamp debug prints nfs: use time64_t internally sunrpc: convert to time64_t for expiry drm/etnaviv: avoid deprecated timespec drm/etnaviv: reject timeouts with tv_nsec >= NSEC_PER_SEC drm/msm: avoid using 'timespec' hfs/hfsplus: use 64-bit inode timestamps hostfs: pass 64-bit timestamps to/from user space packet: clarify timestamp overflow tsacct: add 64-bit btime field acct: stop using get_seconds() um: ubd: use 64-bit time_t where possible xtensa: ISS: avoid struct timeval dlm: use SO_SNDTIMEO_NEW instead of SO_SNDTIMEO_OLD ...

We're not consistent in how the file table is grabbed and assigned if we have a command linked that requires the use of it. Add ->file_table to the io_op_defs[] array, and use that to determine when to grab the table instead of having the handlers set it if they need to defer. This also means we can kill the IO_WQ_WORK_NEEDS_FILES flag. We always initialize work->files, so io-wq can just check for that. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Pull openat2 support from Al Viro: "This is the openat2() series from Aleksa Sarai. I'm afraid that the rest of namei stuff will have to wait - it got zero review the last time I'd posted #work.namei, and there had been a leak in the posted series I'd caught only last weekend. I was going to repost it on Monday, but the window opened and the odds of getting any review during that... Oh, well. Anyway, openat2 part should be ready; that _did_ get sane amount of review and public testing, so here it comes" From Aleksa's description of the series: "For a very long time, extending openat(2) with new features has been incredibly frustrating. This stems from the fact that openat(2) is possibly the most famous counter-example to the mantra "don't silently accept garbage from userspace" -- it doesn't check whether unknown flags are present[1]. This means that (generally) the addition of new flags to openat(2) has been fraught with backwards-compatibility issues (O_TMPFILE has to be defined as __O_TMPFILE|O_DIRECTORY|[O_RDWR or O_WRONLY] to ensure old kernels gave errors, since it's insecure to silently ignore the flag[2]). All new security-related flags therefore have a tough road to being added to openat(2). Furthermore, the need for some sort of control over VFS's path resolution (to avoid malicious paths resulting in inadvertent breakouts) has been a very long-standing desire of many userspace applications. This patchset is a revival of Al Viro's old AT_NO_JUMPS[3] patchset (which was a variant of David Drysdale's O_BENEATH patchset[4] which was a spin-off of the Capsicum project[5]) with a few additions and changes made based on the previous discussion within [6] as well as others I felt were useful. In line with the conclusions of the original discussion of AT_NO_JUMPS, the flag has been split up into separate flags. However, instead of being an openat(2) flag it is provided through a new syscall openat2(2) which provides several other improvements to the openat(2) interface (see the patch description for more details). The following new LOOKUP_* flags are added: LOOKUP_NO_XDEV: Blocks all mountpoint crossings (upwards, downwards, or through absolute links). Absolute pathnames alone in openat(2) do not trigger this. Magic-link traversal which implies a vfsmount jump is also blocked (though magic-link jumps on the same vfsmount are permitted). LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS: Blocks resolution through /proc/$pid/fd-style links. This is done by blocking the usage of nd_jump_link() during resolution in a filesystem. The term "magic-links" is used to match with the only reference to these links in Documentation/, but I'm happy to change the name. It should be noted that this is different to the scope of ~LOOKUP_FOLLOW in that it applies to all path components. However, you can do openat2(NO_FOLLOW|NO_MAGICLINKS) on a magic-link and it will *not* fail (assuming that no parent component was a magic-link), and you will have an fd for the magic-link. In order to correctly detect magic-links, the introduction of a new LOOKUP_MAGICLINK_JUMPED state flag was required. LOOKUP_BENEATH: Disallows escapes to outside the starting dirfd's tree, using techniques such as ".." or absolute links. Absolute paths in openat(2) are also disallowed. Conceptually this flag is to ensure you "stay below" a certain point in the filesystem tree -- but this requires some additional to protect against various races that would allow escape using "..". Currently LOOKUP_BENEATH implies LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS, because it can trivially beam you around the filesystem (breaking the protection). In future, there might be similar safety checks done as in LOOKUP_IN_ROOT, but that requires more discussion. In addition, two new flags are added that expand on the above ideas: LOOKUP_NO_SYMLINKS: Does what it says on the tin. No symlink resolution is allowed at all, including magic-links. Just as with LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS this can still be used with NOFOLLOW to open an fd for the symlink as long as no parent path had a symlink component. LOOKUP_IN_ROOT: This is an extension of LOOKUP_BENEATH that, rather than blocking attempts to move past the root, forces all such movements to be scoped to the starting point. This provides chroot(2)-like protection but without the cost of a chroot(2) for each filesystem operation, as well as being safe against race attacks that chroot(2) is not. If a race is detected (as with LOOKUP_BENEATH) then an error is generated, and similar to LOOKUP_BENEATH it is not permitted to cross magic-links with LOOKUP_IN_ROOT. The primary need for this is from container runtimes, which currently need to do symlink scoping in userspace[7] when opening paths in a potentially malicious container. There is a long list of CVEs that could have bene mitigated by having RESOLVE_THIS_ROOT (such as CVE-2017-1002101, CVE-2017-1002102, CVE-2018-15664, and CVE-2019-5736, just to name a few). In order to make all of the above more usable, I'm working on libpathrs[8] which is a C-friendly library for safe path resolution. It features a userspace-emulated backend if the kernel doesn't support openat2(2). Hopefully we can get userspace to switch to using it, and thus get openat2(2) support for free once it's ready. Future work would include implementing things like RESOLVE_NO_AUTOMOUNT and possibly a RESOLVE_NO_REMOTE (to allow programs to be sure they don't hit DoSes though stale NFS handles)" * 'work.openat2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: Documentation: path-lookup: include new LOOKUP flags selftests: add openat2(2) selftests open: introduce openat2(2) syscall namei: LOOKUP_{IN_ROOT,BENEATH}: permit limited ".." resolution namei: LOOKUP_IN_ROOT: chroot-like scoped resolution namei: LOOKUP_BENEATH: O_BENEATH-like scoped resolution namei: LOOKUP_NO_XDEV: block mountpoint crossing namei: LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS: block magic-link resolution namei: LOOKUP_NO_SYMLINKS: block symlink resolution namei: allow set_root() to produce errors namei: allow nd_jump_link() to produce errors nsfs: clean-up ns_get_path() signature to return int namei: only return -ECHILD from follow_dotdot_rcu()
