Add the first activation of the PT_INTERP substitution machinery. A
static entry registered with the new 'L' flag no longer runs the
registered interpreter with the binary as payload. It stashes the
interpreter as bprm->loader and declines the match with -ENOEXEC. The
format search continues in the same round. binfmt_elf claims the binary
as a fully native exec and substitutes the stashed file for the binary's
PT_INTERP.
'L' rejects every classic-dispatch flag at registration. 'T', 'P' and
'O' have nothing to act on (no argv splice, no execfd) and 'C' is
subsumed (credentials derive from the binary natively). 'F' composes and
is valuable: with it the substitute is pre-opened at registration time
and immune to mount namespace changes. Without it the substitute is
opened at exec time in the exec'ing task's context, so 'L' joins 'C' in
the requirement that the interpreter be named by an absolute path. As
with 'C', only trusted interpreters should be registered. The
substituted loader runs with credentials derived from the binary.
Like the other flag characters 'L' cannot be used as the field
delimiter. The flag scan would run off the registration buffer.
The interpreter open is shared with the classic path via the
entry_open_interpreter() helper. An open error fails the exec. Map
-ENOEXEC to -EACCES to avoid letting the binary run with its own
PT_INTERP.

Do what binfmt_elf does. When a binfmt_misc loader entry stashed
bprm->loader use it in place of the path named in PT_INTERP, and drop the
override when the binary names no interpreter at all.
Without this 'L' is unusable on nommu, where fdpic is the only ELF
loader. On ARM with an MMU both loaders are registered but split the ELF
space between them along elf_check_fdpic(), so an fdpic binary is never
picked up by binfmt_elf either.
Declining is what fdpic did so far, but it declined late. The pending
override was only caught in begin_new_exec(), by which point the segment
scan had opened the interpreter the binary itself names and overwritten
bprm->buf with its header, leaving the next format in the round to
inspect a buffer that no longer describes the file it is offered. The
scan consumes the override now, so of the in-tree formats only
binfmt_flat still relies on the refusal, and it reads bprm->buf without
writing it.
Transparent dispatch needs nothing on top of the AT_FLAGS translation
both loaders already share. The binary travels in AT_EXECFD, which
create_elf_fdpic_tables() emits, and the exe and comm labelling is done
in exec.c for every format.

When a binfmt_misc loader entry stashed bprm->loader use it instead of
opening the path named in PT_INTERP. The substitution deliberately
changes as little as possible. Ownership transfers into the local
interpreter reference which the existing success and error paths already
release.
A binary without PT_INTERP has nothing to substitute for. Drop the
override at the end of the segment scan and load the binary natively.
Nothing sets bprm->loader yet.

binfmt_misc currently supports an execution model where the registered
interpreter becomes the executed program and the matched binary is
handed to it as payload. The upcoming binfmt_misc loader mode inverts
this. The matched binary remains the executed program and the registered
interpreter is substituted into the role the binary's PT_INTERP would
have played.
Add the channel for that hand-over. bprm->loader carries an
open_exec-style struct file reference from the binfmt_misc match to the
binary format that consumes it. Unlike bprm->interpreter it does not
request a restart of the format search. The stashing handler declines
the exec with -ENOEXEC and the search continues to the real format in
the same round.
Both ELF loaders consume it, so give them the two helpers to do it with
rather than a copy each. bprm_open_interpreter() hands out the substitute
in place of what PT_INTERP names and bprm_drop_loader() releases one that
turned out not to apply.
Establish the complete lifecycle up front so a stashed loader can
neither leak nor be silently ignored.
- Chain restart: if another format wins the round by staging
bprm->interpreter (binfmt_script) the stashed loader belonged to
the file being replaced. Drop it at the top of the swap block in
exec_binprm().
- Unclaimed or error: free_bprm() releases a still-stashed loader
next to the other bprm file references.
- Silent non-substitution: a final format that reaches
begin_new_exec() with a pending loader would run the binary while
ignoring the override. Refuse with -ENOEXEC before the point of no
return. Formats that do not know about the override (binfmt_flat,
out-of-tree) need no changes.

Expose transparent mode 'T' to the bpf handler via a new
BPF_BINPRM_TRANSPARENT flag. A bpf handler can decide per binary whether
the dispatch is transparent. This way users may choose a native-looking
loader for one binary and a visible wrapper invocation for the next.

Let a registration opt into transparent dispatch. The 'T' flag lets a
matched binary keep its argument vector and is sent to the interpreter
through AT_EXECFD. The process's identity is the binary's.
'T' implies 'O' exactly like 'C' does. 'P' is rejected in combination
with it. Transparency preserves the whole argument vector so there is
nothing left for 'P' to say. 'C' remains an independent choice and 'F'
keeps working. A pre-opened interpreter is orthogonal to how the binary
is handed over.
Like the other flag characters 'T' cannot be used as the field
delimiter. The flag scan would run off the registration buffer.

A binfmt_misc interpreter is visible to the binary it runs. argv[0]
becomes the interpreter path and the binary's path is appended as an
argument and /proc/pid/cmdline shows both. For wine or qemu-user that is
the point. For a per-binary loader the interpreter is an implementation
detail of running the binary that has no business in the argument
vector. And a binary handed to execveat() as an O_CLOEXEC fd without a
usable path cannot be run through binfmt_misc at all. The interpreter
would have no path to open the binary by.
Add the dispatch machinery for a transparent mode. The binary is handed
to the interpreter through AT_EXECFD. The argument vector is left
exactly as the caller set it. argv[0] and /proc/pid/cmdline look like a
direct execution of the binary. bprm->interp still names the
interpreter: it drives the next format lookup and the
sched_prepare_exec tracepoint, not what the process sees.
The interpreter loads the binary from AT_EXECFD for this. A relocatable
loader can and glibc's ld.so is gaining AT_EXECFD support [1]. A staged
interpreter argument is rejected: no argv slot is built for it to land
in.
The transparent branch raises BINPRM_FLAGS_TRANSPARENT_INTERP. A
dispatch through it labels mm->exe_file with the binary and raises
AT_FLAGS_TRANSPARENT_INTERP next to AT_EXECFD. The aux vector bit is the
loader's hint to retarget saved_auxv and the statistics markers to the
binary, which is only correct while the exe link names the binary too.
The inaccessible-path bail moves after handler selection and into the
path-building branch. A transparent interpreter takes the binary from
AT_EXECFD instead of a path, so the restriction does not apply to it
and the O_CLOEXEC execveat() case above can work. Nothing can take the
transparent branch yet.

When binfmt_misc dispatches a binary to an interpreter, the interpreter
becomes bprm->file and begin_new_exec() labels mm->exe_file with it. For
wine or qemu-user that is the point. For the transparent mode it
defeats the point. The interpreter is an implementation detail and the
process's identity is the binary. Relocatable programs that locate
themselves via /proc/self/exe find the dynamic linker instead [1].
Userspace cannot get this right on its own. PR_SET_MM_MAP's exe_fd is
gated on checkpoint_restore_ns_capable() in the caller's own user
namespace - that is how CRIU restores an exe link - so the ability to
retarget mm->exe_file is not what this adds. What userspace cannot do
is have the link be right from the first instruction. Credentials are
unaffected either way: they still derive from the interpreter unless
'C' says otherwise.
bprm->executable is the file execve() access-checked and kept open for
AT_EXECFD. It is already the file would_dump() bases the dumpability
decision on and the file bprm->execfd_creds derives credentials from.
Label mm->exe_file with it when the dispatch is transparent and the
identity is correct from the start. The label names precisely the file
the caller passed to execve().
Write-denial moves along with the label. Rather than tracking per mode
who still owes a release, the denial do_open_execat() took stays on
bprm->executable until the file is handed over. begin_new_exec() drops
it right before installing the descriptor - set_mm_exe_file() has taken
its own denial on the identity file by then - and free_bprm() releases
an unconsumed executable with do_close_execat() like the other exec
files. For a transparent dispatch the result is exact parity with a
direct execution: a concurrently written binary fails execve() with
-ETXTBSY at open and a running one cannot be opened for writing. The
interpreter consequently is not exe-pinned and matches the role it has
in a native PT_INTERP exec. A classic execfd dispatch now keeps the
binary write-denied until the exec completes rather than only until the
interpreter swap; the difference is confined to the exec itself.
Nothing sets BINPRM_FLAGS_TRANSPARENT_INTERP yet; the transparent
dispatch machinery in binfmt_misc follows and raises it from birth, so
the label and the aux vector bit that announces it appear together.

A transparent binfmt_misc dispatch hands the binary to the interpreter
through AT_EXECFD and leaves the argument vector exactly as the caller
built it. The loader on the receiving end has to know which contract it
got.
On the classic 'O'/'C' entries the binary's path is spliced into the
argument vector and the loader consumes arguments. In transparent mode
nothing was spliced and argv belongs entirely to the program. This
cannot be inferred from AT_EXECFD alone. Raise a new AT_FLAGS bit
following the AT_FLAGS_PRESERVE_ARGV0 precedent added for qemu-user in
commit 2347961b11d4 ("binfmt_misc: pass binfmt_misc flags to the
interpreter").
The bit also announces that mm->exe_file names the binary rather than
the interpreter (added in the next commit). A loader that sees the bit
may finish the identity polish by fixing up AT_PHDR/AT_ENTRY/AT_BASE in
saved_auxv and fix the code/data markers via one uncapped PR_SET_MM_MAP
once it has mapped the binary. I've got glibc patches for this as well
but it's useful for any loader.
BINPRM_FLAGS_TRANSPARENT_INTERP carries the mode from binfmt_misc to the
ELF loaders. Both had their own copy of the AT_FLAGS translation, so
give them one bprm_at_flags() to share instead of a second copy that can
drift. Nothing sets the bprm flag yet.

When the format search stages an interpreter exec_binprm() swaps it
in and releases the file it replaces. Dropping the write denial the
open took is done manually ahead of both release paths. The one path
that keeps the file silently relies on it not being called.
Let's just use do_close_execat() on the two paths that release the file
and drop the denial explicitly on the one that does not.
No functional change.

Opening the interpreter is a property of the matched entry: an 'F' entry
hands out a clone of the file it pre-opened at registration time, any
other entry opens the selected path. Give that its own helper instead of
an if/else in the middle of load_misc_binary(), and let it fail early
rather than carrying an ERR_PTR through the successful branch.
Building the interpreter's argument vector is the bulk of what remains
and the one part of load_misc_binary() that is specific to the classic
dispatch. Move it into its own helper too, so the dispatch reads as what
it is: pick a handler, pick an interpreter, build the invocation, open
it.
No functional change.

A static entry fixes its invocation flags at registration. A 'B' entry's
load program picks them per exec. Since load_misc_binary() branches on
which kind of entry matched and then applies the two flag sets side by
side every flag is handled twice and each new one has to be added to
both arms.
Translate the 'B' flags into the entry flags they mirror and let the
dispatch act on a single set of flags. The boolean the two arms
communicated 'P' can be removed.

Every flag character of the register string is spelled out three
times: in the parser, in the entry's /proc output and in the
delimiter blacklist that keeps a flag character from sending the flag
scan off the end of the buffer. The three lists have to agree, and
each new flag has to be added to all of them.
Describe a flag once - character, entry flag, implied flags and a
description for the registration debug output - and drive all three
from the table.
While at it, express the "a 'B' entry carries no flags" check as what
it is, an empty flags field, rather than as a fourth list of every
flag character. Equivalent: the check runs right after
check_special_flags(), which advances past exactly the flag
characters it consumed and sets exactly their flags.
No functional change.

A 'C' entry computes the credentials from the matched binary instead of
from the interpreter. So a set*id binary hands its credentials to
whatever the entry names as its interpreter.
Without 'F' that interpreter is not opened until the exec happens and
open_exec() resolves the path relative to the current working directory.
The working directory at that point belongs to whoever runs the binary
not to whoever registered the entry. So :x:M::\x7fELF::interp:C lets
every user who execs a matching set*id binary from a directory they
control run their own interp with that binary's credentials.
A relative interpreter has no sensible use here to begin with. The
registering task cannot know what the working directory will be. Make
the register string reject the combination at registration time.
This does refuse register strings that used to be accepted. The 'F' flag
covers the case where the interpreter really is meant to be resolved in
the registrant's context, and it resolves it once, at registration.

The 'P', 'C' and 'O' flags of a binfmt_misc entry - preserve argv[0],
compute credentials from the binary, and pass the binary as an open file
descriptor - are fixed at registration and apply to every binary the entry
matches. A bpf handler matches, selects the interpreter and reads the
binary per exec, so the flags should be its per-exec decision too: one
handler may match both setuid and non-setuid binaries, argv[0]-sensitive
ones and not.
Honor the flags the load program stages in bprm->bpf_flags through the
bpf_binprm_set_flags() kfunc: BPF_BINPRM_PRESERVE_ARGV0,
BPF_BINPRM_CREDENTIALS and BPF_BINPRM_EXECFD map to 'P', 'C' and 'O' and
keep the semantics of their static counterparts, credentials implying the
open file descriptor included.
Flags staged by a load program that then fails are dropped on the way out
so they cannot leak into a later handler's exec, and the argv[0] decision
acts on the entry's own choice instead of testing the accumulated
bprm->interp_flags bit, which an earlier chain level may have left set and
binfmt_misc never clears.
Since a 'B' entry's flags come from the program, it carries none in the
register string: 'P', 'C' and 'O' are rejected there alongside 'F', which
was already meaningless for it. load_misc_binary() takes the flags from
the entry for a static handler and from bprm->bpf_flags for a bpf one.

A bpf binfmt_misc handler selects an interpreter but, unlike binfmt_script,
load_misc_binary() builds the argument vector as just [interpreter, binary,
...] with no slot for an argument to the interpreter. A handler that wants
to reproduce a #! line therefore cannot express its single optional
argument, e.g. a handler that resolves $ORIGIN in a script's #! path loses
the argument that followed the interpreter.
Have load_misc_binary() consume the argument staged through the
bpf_binprm_set_interp_arg() kfunc and insert it between the interpreter and
the binary - the same position and single-argument semantics binfmt_script
gives the argument of a #! line. The argument is cleared once spliced into
the argument vector, and a load program that fails after staging one has it
dropped on the way out: whether the exec fails or -ENOEXEC hands the binary
back to the remaining formats, a stale argument cannot leak into a nested
interpreter's argv. This also lets static-style handlers pass a fixed
interpreter argument, which plain binfmt_misc has never been able to
express.

The fs kfuncs are currently exclusive to LSM programs. A binfmt_misc
handler needs a subset of them to do anything interesting: computing an
interpreter relative to the binary's location wants bpf_path_d_path()
on bprm->file->f_path from the load program, and matching on per-binary
metadata wants bpf_get_file_xattr() and friends right from the match
program.
Register the fs kfunc set for struct_ops programs as well and extend
the filter to admit binfmt_misc_ops programs. The xattr setters stay
exclusive to LSM programs: a binary type handler decides how to run a
binary, it has no business modifying filesystem state.
This only takes effect in builds that have the fs kfunc set at all,
i.e. CONFIG_BPF_LSM. Without it a binfmt_misc handler is limited to
bprm fields and the file-backed dynptr, which are provided by the
common kfunc set.

Activate a registered binfmt_misc_ops handler through the existing text
interface with the new 'B' entry type:
echo ':name:B::::<handler-name>:' > <binfmt_misc>/register
The offset, magic, and mask fields must be empty since the program does
the matching; the interpreter field carries the handler name since the
program supplies the interpreter. Reusing the register file keeps the
existing permission model intact: activating a handler requires the
same write access to a binfmt_misc instance as any other registration,
and the per user namespace instance semantics apply unchanged. A 'B'
entry in a container's own instance shadows the host's handlers just
like any other entry, and the privilege needed to shadow e.g. all ELF
binaries is the same as for a static 'M' entry matching \x7fELF today;
the only novelty is that matching becomes programmable.
The entry takes its own reference on the ops for its whole lifetime.
It is dropped from the SRCU callback that frees the entry rather than
synchronously on the final put: a walker may be asleep inside the
handler's match program while the entry's last reference goes away, so
the ops must stay callable until every walker has left the read
section - the same deferral the entry's own memory already gets. The
registration failure path, where the users refcount is not live yet,
drops it explicitly.
The match program runs from the lookup walk like magic and extension
matching and under the same rules: strict registration order, first
match wins. The walk became an SRCU read-side section in the previous
patch, so the program can sleep: it decides on the actual file
content - program headers beyond the prefetched bprm->buf, say - not
just on whatever happens to be resident in the page cache. A match
commits the exec to the handler. The sleepable load program then
selects the interpreter from load_misc_binary() by calling
bpf_binprm_set_interp() and returning zero; a failure fails the exec
instead of falling through to later entries. The walk is never left
and re-entered, so 'B' entries need no special semantics against
concurrent registration and removal whatsoever. -ENOEXEC keeps its
usual meaning and moves on to the remaining binary formats - a handler
whose load program discovers that it cannot serve the binary after all
hands it back to them - and so does returning zero without having
selected an interpreter; other program-supplied errors are clamped to
the errno range.
The 'F' flag is rejected for 'B' entries: it exists to pre-open a fixed
interpreter at registration time in the registrar's context, and a 'B'
entry has no fixed interpreter to pre-open.
'C' is accepted and behaves exactly as it does for a static entry. It
honors the suid bits of the matched binary while executing the
interpreter, which makes 'B' handlers usable for the setuid case, e.g.
a per-binary loader. This does not let the program's registrant widen
access: bprm_fill_uid() gates the credential transition on
vfsuid_has_mapping() in the caller's user namespace, so the interpreter
can only ever run as a uid that is mapped there, identical to a static
'C' entry. The computed path is opened with open_exec() under the
caller's credentials with the usual LSM and noexec checks, and the
programs run before the transition with the caller's credentials,
never elevated.

The upcoming bpf-backed binary type handlers run a match program from
the entry lookup walk in load_misc_binary(). Deciding whether a handler
applies means reading the binary - parsing ELF program headers sitting
at arbitrary file offsets, say - and reliable file reads at exec time
fault in the file's pages, so the walk must tolerate an entry's
evaluation sleeping.
Switch the walk from RCU to SRCU in its fast flavor: srcu-fast read
sections may block while the read side stays practically as cheap as
the RCU read lock it replaces, so the common static-entry lookup does
not pay for the new capability. Entry freeing moves from kfree_rcu()
to call_srcu(). Removal still unlinks the entry immediately and never
blocks: a walker sleeping inside an entry's evaluation just keeps the
entry alive until it leaves the read section. The module exit path
flushes pending callbacks with srcu_barrier().
Take the reference on a matched entry at the match point inside the
walk instead of retrying the whole search when the refcount raise
fails. A restarted search was harmless when an entry's evaluation was
a memcmp() on bprm->buf, but re-running match programs that may sleep
on entries that were already consulted is not. An entry whose refcount
hit zero is unlinked and dying, so treating it as absent and walking
on is exactly what the bounded retry loop converged to, without ever
evaluating an entry twice.

Add the bpf plumbing for binary type handlers whose matching and
interpreter selection are implemented by bpf programs instead of a
fixed magic/extension and a fixed interpreter string recorded at
registration time. This serves relocatable binary formats where the
interpreter must be computed per binary, e.g. relative to the location
of the binary itself, as discussed for hermetic Nix-style executables.
A handler is an instance of the new binfmt_misc_ops struct_ops with a
name that binfmt_misc entries reference it by and two ops:
bool (*match)(struct linux_binprm *bprm);
int (*load)(struct linux_binprm *bprm);
struct_ops is the sanctioned mechanism for this kind of user-supplied
policy callback: program types, attach types, and the uapi helper list
are frozen, and every recently added subsystem hook (bpf qdisc, SMC
handshake control, io_uring loop ops, sched_ext) is a struct_ops user.
The ops receive the bprm as a trusted BTF pointer, so a program can
match on the header in bprm->buf, read arbitrary file content via
bpf_dynptr_from_file() to parse e.g. ELF program headers, and inspect
the binary's location. No dedicated program type, ctx blob, or uapi
helper is needed.
The two ops split along what they decide, not what they may do: the
match program decides whether the handler applies to a binary, the
load program decides how a matched binary is run. Both are required
to be sleepable. Matching cannot be limited to the prefetched 256
bytes in bprm->buf: deciding whether a handler applies takes e.g.
parsing the ELF program headers to find an interpreter segment, which
sits at an arbitrary file offset, and non-sleepable file reads are
limited to whatever happens to be resident in the page cache. A match
program that cannot read the file reliably would have to match
broadly and leave the rejection to its load program, which breaks
first-match-wins entry semantics the moment more than one handler is
registered. Reliable file reads at exec time fault in the file's
pages, so both ops must be able to sleep. This also constrains the
caller: binfmt_misc must invoke both from sleepable context, which a
later patch takes care of. Both ops are required; a handler that
wants to decide everything from the load program supplies a match
program that just returns true.
The load program communicates its decisions through three new kfuncs:
int bpf_binprm_set_interp(struct linux_binprm *bprm,
const char *path, size_t path__sz);
selects the interpreter and enforces an absolute path shorter than
PATH_MAX.
int bpf_binprm_set_interp_arg(struct linux_binprm *bprm,
const char *arg, size_t arg__sz);
passes a single optional argument to the interpreter, mirroring the
optional argument of a #! interpreter line - something a static entry
cannot express at all.
int bpf_binprm_set_flags(struct linux_binprm *bprm,
enum bpf_binprm_flags flags);
chooses the invocation flags for this exec, with
BPF_BINPRM_PRESERVE_ARGV0, BPF_BINPRM_CREDENTIALS and
BPF_BINPRM_EXECFD mapping to 'P', 'C' and 'O'. Unknown bits are
rejected so a program built against a newer kernel fails loudly on an
older one rather than silently losing a flag. Repeated calls replace
the staged flags and a zero argument clears them again - the
set-or-clear semantics of bpf_bprm_opts_set() on the same struct. A
flags word carries this better than a kfunc per flag: it is one call,
it is set atomically, and new behaviour is a new bit rather than new
surface - the same shape the register string's flags field already
has.
All three stage their result in the bprm; consuming it from
load_misc_binary() is wired up by the following patches. The bprm is
exclusively owned by the task doing the exec, so no shared or per-CPU
state is involved and nothing here can race. The kfuncs are registered
for struct_ops programs with a filter that limits them to the load
program of a binfmt_misc_ops instance, keyed off the struct_ops member
offset the program attaches to: match decides whether a handler
applies, load decides how the binary is run, and the verifier enforces
that split at program load time.
Registering an ops instance (updating the struct_ops map or attaching
its link) publishes the handler under its name in a registry keyed by
the registering task's user namespace. Lookups do not walk that
hierarchy: a handler is only visible in the user namespace it was
registered in, so an entry can only reference a handler registered in
the same user namespace as its binfmt_misc instance. Consumers take a
reference on the ops via bpf_struct_ops_get() which pins the underlying
map and programs, so an activated handler keeps working even if the map
is deleted or the registering container goes away; deregistration only
prevents new activations, exactly like unregistering a tcp congestion
ops with live users.

The upcoming bpf-backed binfmt_misc handlers decide how a binary is run
programmatically at exec time: the interpreter itself, an optional
single argument to pass to it, and the invocation flags that a static
binfmt_misc entry fixes at registration time. The selection runs before
load_misc_binary() has copied the binary path from bprm->interp into
the argument vector, so the selecting program cannot go through
bprm_change_interp() directly without clobbering argv[1].
Stage the selected state in the bprm instead, grouped in struct
binfmt_misc_bpf and embedded anonymously in struct linux_binprm so the
bprm->bpf_* accesses stay direct. The bprm is exclusively owned by the
task doing the exec so no synchronization is needed. The consumers
free and clear the fields once the exec attempt that set them is
finished; free_bprm() covers all error paths.

Removing a binary type handler requires echoing -1 into its entry
file which works but is an odd interface to discover for something
that already looks like a plain file in a filesystem. The comment on
remove_binfmt_handler() has been suggesting a proper ->unlink()
method for years, so add one: unlinking an entry file unhashes the
entry from the handler list and removes the file, exactly like
writing -1 to it does. The status and register control files refuse
removal with EPERM the same way binderfs protects binder-control.
Writing -1 keeps working.
Permission-wise nothing new is exposed: unlink(2) requires write
access to the root directory which is owned by the (user namespace)
root with mode 0755, matching the privilege needed to write to the
0644 entry files. The VFS calls ->unlink() with the root inode lock
held so the existing writer serialization scheme applies unchanged,
and eviction of the unlinked inode drops the entry reference exactly
as for the write based removal.
Document the new way in admin-guide/binfmt-misc.rst.

create_entry() is a two hundred line parser with the M and E field
handling inlined as the two arms of its largest branch. Move them
into parse_magic_fields() and parse_extension_fields() which return
the new parse position or NULL so create_entry() itself reads like
the register string grammar again.
The offset parsing loses a provably dead check on the way: after
*s = '\0' and p = s the subsequent if (*p++) always reads the just
written NUL byte and can never fail, it only obscured that the code
simply advances past the delimiter.
With the field parsing gone every remaining failure unwinds the same
way, so hand the entry to __free(kfree), return errors directly and
pass ownership out via no_free_ptr() on success instead of routing
every exit through goto tails.

Reading an entry file allocates a whole page and formats the status
into it with a chain of manually advanced sprintf() calls, silently
relying on MAX_REGISTER_LENGTH plus the hex-expanded magic and mask
always staying below PAGE_SIZE. Convert the read side to seq_file
which sizes its buffer as needed and gets rid of the open-coded
pointer arithmetic including the last bin2hex() user in the file.
The output is byte for byte identical.
seq_open() clears FMODE_PWRITE for historical reasons and would
silently turn pwrite() on entry files into -ESPIPE even though
bm_entry_write() accepts writes at any offset. Restore the flag in
bm_entry_open() the same way kernfs does for its seq_file backed
files so pwrite() keeps working.
The only user-visible difference is that seeking is now bound by
seq_lseek() instead of default_llseek(), i.e. SEEK_END stops working
on entry files, which nothing can sensibly use anyway.
The status file keeps its simple_read_from_buffer() as it only ever
returns one of two fixed strings.

Once binfmt_misc is loaded load_misc_binary() runs for every execve()
on the system since binfmt_misc registers at the head of the formats
list. Every exec therefore performs read_lock() and read_unlock() on
the entries_lock of the relevant binfmt_misc instance, i.e., two
atomic read-modify-writes on a shared cacheline. User namespaces
without their own binfmt_misc mount fall back to an ancestor's
instance so on container-heavy systems every exec on the machine
typically ends up hammering the cacheline of init_binfmt_misc. On
PREEMPT_RT the rwlock additionally turns the handler lookup into a
sleeping lock on the exec fast path.
The lock protects very little. Entries are immutable after publication
except for the Enabled bit which is already toggled locklessly via
set_bit()/clear_bit() and entry lifetime is already handled by the
users refcount via get_binfmt_handler()/put_binfmt_handler(). The read
lock's only remaining job is to make "the entry is still linked" and
"take a reference" atomic with respect to the unlink sites.
Switch the lookup to an RCU walk:
* Lookup walks the entry list under rcu_read_lock() and acquires a
reference via refcount_inc_not_zero(). The refcount can only drop to
zero after an entry has been unlinked so a failed increment means
the walk raced with an unlink. Restarting the search is bounded
because an unlinked entry cannot be found again.
* The unlink sites use hlist_del_init_rcu() which keeps the forward
pointer intact for concurrent walkers and preserves hlist_unhashed()
as the protection against double removal.
* The final put frees the entry via kfree_rcu() as a concurrent walker
may still dereference its flags, magic, mask, and inline strings.
They all live in the entry allocation itself and thus stay valid
until a grace period has elapsed. Closing the interpreter file stays
synchronous. It is only used with a reference already held and all
final puts run in process context.
* Writers remain serialized by the inode lock of the root dentry with
one exception. bm_evict_inode() called from generic_shutdown_super()
during umount unlinks entries without holding it. Keep a spinlock
around the unlink sites instead of relying on superblock lifetime
rules to make that exclusion implicit.
Handler removal semantics are unchanged. An exec that acquired a
reference just before its handler was unregistered already completes
with the removed handler today. The read lock never protected against
that, it only made the window smaller.
With this an exec that matches no binfmt_misc entry, the common case,
no longer writes to any shared cacheline at all.

The upcoming conversion of the handler lookup to RCU walks cannot use
list_del_init(): reinitializing the forward pointer of a removed entry
would make a concurrent lockless walker standing on that entry loop
back onto it indefinitely. The removal paths do rely on
reinitialization though because bm_{entry,status}_write() and
bm_evict_inode() need to detect whether an entry has already been
unlinked.
hlists support exactly this pattern: hlist_del_init_rcu() keeps the
forward pointer of the removed entry intact for concurrent walkers and
only zeroes ->pprev with hlist_unhashed() serving as the linked test.
Convert the entry list to an hlist now while keeping the rwlock so the
subsequent RCU conversion is a pure locking change. hlist_add_head()
inserts at the head just as list_add() did so lookup precedence
between registered handlers is unchanged.

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
"binfmt_misc:
- Don't let an 'F' entry pin its own instance.
An entry registered with 'F' opens its interpreter at registration
time and holds that file until the entry is freed, so an entry
nobody removes by hand is only closed once the binfmt_misc
superblock is shut down.
If the interpreter lives on a mount that keeps that superblock
alive the two pin each other and the file is never closed. That's
reachable by pointing the interpreter at the instance itself or by
using the instance as an overlayfs lower layer, and once the mount
namespace is gone there's nothing left to unregister through
either.
- Restore write access when removing an entry.
Registering with the MISC_FMT_OPEN_FILE flag opens the interpreter
via open_exec() which denies write access for as long as the entry
exists, but removal only did filp_close() and never restored it.
The inode's i_writecount stayed permanently negative and opening
the interpreter for writing kept failing with ETXTBSY long after
the entry was gone.
- Use exe_file_deny_write_access() for the interpreter clone so both
sides base their decision on the same mode.
- Reject a flag character as the field delimiter. create_entry() pads
the buffer with the delimiter so the field parsers terminate even
on a truncated string, but check_special_flags() consumes flag
characters instead of scanning for the delimiter.
If the delimiter is itself a flag character the padding stops
acting as a terminator and the scan keeps reading past the end of
the allocation. Such a registration was always rejected, just only
after the out of bounds read has already happened.
- Don't leak the user namespace when the mount fails.
bm_get_tree() hands its reference to get_tree_keyed() and sget_fc()
moves it into sb->s_fs_info, but generic_shutdown_super() only
calls ->put_super() from inside the if (sb->s_root) branch and
bm_fill_super() can fail before either s_root or s_op is in place.
Drop the reference in ->kill_sb() instead, which runs
unconditionally.
netfs:
- Clear PG_private_2 on a copy-to-cache append failure.
- Handle a rolling buffer allocation failure in single-object
writeback and drop the extra folio reference
netfs_write_folio_single() took before the append.
- Release the previously batched readahead folios when
rolling_buffer_load_from_ra() fails in
netfs_prepare_read_iterator()
- Fix the folio_queue ENOMEM in writeback by adding a mempool and
passing gfp flags into the rolling buffer helpers.
iomap:
- Add a separate bio_set for iomap_split_ioend(). It can split bios
that already come from iomap_ioend_bioset and deadlock once that
bioset is exhausted.
afs:

- Use memcmp() when comparing fixed-size binary ClientGUIDs, so
embedded NUL bytes are handled correctly
- Reject repeated SMB2 NEGOTIATE requests after dialect selection
This prevents preauth_info leaks, enforces the SMB2 protocol
requirements, and serializes negotiation state updates.
- Fix a use-after-free in __close_file_table_ids() by removing the
volatile file ID from the owning IDR before dropping the IDR
reference

Casefolding filesystems can request a specific version of UTF-8 at
mount-time. utf8_parse_version then assembles the "major.minor.rev"
string into an unsigned int. There were two issues with the parser
logic: first, individual fields are read as signed int, allowing
negative numbers, second, an overflowed field will result in unexpected
results. Something like the below actually succeeds to mount using
utf8-12.1.0.
mount -t tmpfs -o casefold=utf8-12.0.256 none /mnt
[ 10.867859] tmpfs: Using encoding : utf8-12.1.0

utf8_normalize() was added in 2019 as part of
commit 9d53690f0d4e ("unicode: implement higher level API for string
handling")
but has remained unused.
(I think because the other higher level routines added by that patch
normalise as part of their operations)
Remove it.

A call to listxattr() with a buffer size of 0 returns the actual
size of the buffer needed for a subsequent call. On an NFSv4.2
mount this triggers the following oops:
[ 399.768687] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
[ 399.768705] RIP: 0010:_copy_from_pages+0x44/0xe0
[ 399.768722] Call Trace:

security_inode_listsecurity() (via the xattr_list_one() helper) now
decrements the remaining size even when the buffer pointer is NULL, so
in the size-query case, 'left' underflows to a huge size_t value. As a
result, nfs4_listxattr_nfs4_user() treats the NULL buffer as a real one,
leading to a NULL pointer dereference in _copy_from_pages().
security_inode_listsecurity() does not return the number of bytes
it added to the list, so the code derived it as
'size - error - left'. That is also wrong in the size-query case:
the generic_listxattr() contribution is only subtracted from 'left'
when a buffer is present. Thus, the query result comes up short by
exactly that contribution (e.g., "system.nfs4_acl" on a mount with
ACL support), and a caller that allocates the returned size gets
-ERANGE on the subsequent call.
Declare 'left' as ssize_t, use a scratch copy to measure security
hook consumption, and only decrement 'left' if a buffer is present.
