arch: Add the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS to all the asm-offsets.c

2025-11-02T13:18:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit 35561bab768977c9e05f1f1a9bc00134c85f3e28 ] The include/generated/asm-offsets.h is generated in Kbuild during compiling from arch/SRCARCH/kernel/asm-offsets.c. When we want to generate another similar offset header file, circular dependency can happen. For example, we want to generate a offset file include/generated/test.h, which is included in include/sched/sched.h. If we generate asm-offsets.h first, it will fail, as include/sched/sched.h is included in asm-offsets.c and include/generated/test.h doesn't exist; If we generate test.h first, it can't success neither, as include/generated/asm-offsets.h is included by it. In x86_64, the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS is used to avoid such circular dependency. We can generate asm-offsets.h first, and if the COMPILE_OFFSETS is defined, we don't include the "generated/test.h". And we define the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS for all the asm-offsets.c for this purpose. Signed-off-by: Menglong Dong Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

arch: copy_thread: pass clone_flags as u64

2025-10-15T10:03:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit bbc46b23af5bb934cd1cf066ef4342cee457a24e ] With the introduction of clone3 in commit 7f192e3cd316 ("fork: add clone3") the effective bit width of clone_flags on all architectures was increased from 32-bit to 64-bit, with a new type of u64 for the flags. However, for most consumers of clone_flags the interface was not changed from the previous type of unsigned long. While this works fine as long as none of the new 64-bit flag bits (CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND and CLONE_INTO_CGROUP) are evaluated, this is still undesirable in terms of the principle of least surprise. Thus, this commit fixes all relevant interfaces of the copy_thread function that is called from copy_process to consistently pass clone_flags as u64, so that no truncation to 32-bit integers occurs on 32-bit architectures.

mm: pgtable: fix pte_swp_exclusive

2025-06-11T21:52:08+00:00

Make pte_swp_exclusive return bool instead of int. This will better reflect how pte_swp_exclusive is actually used in the code. This fixes swap/swapoff problems on Alpha due pte_swp_exclusive not returning correct values when _PAGE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE bit resides in upper 32-bits of PTE (like on alpha).

hexagon: add syscall_set_return_value()

2025-05-12T00:48:14+00:00

Patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API", v7. PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO is a generic ptrace API that complements PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO by letting the ptracer modify details of system calls the tracee is blocked in. This API allows ptracers to obtain and modify system call details in a straightforward and architecture-agnostic way, providing a consistent way of manipulating the system call number and arguments across architectures. As in case of PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO, PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO also does not aim to address numerous architecture-specific system call ABI peculiarities, like differences in the number of system call arguments for such system calls as pread64 and preadv. The current implementation supports changing only those bits of system call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value. Support of changing additional details returned by PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO, such as instruction pointer and stack pointer, could be added later if needed, by using struct ptrace_syscall_info.flags to specify the additional details that should be set. Currently, "flags" and "reserved" fields of struct ptrace_syscall_info must be initialized with zeroes; "arch", "instruction_pointer", and "stack_pointer" fields are currently ignored. PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO currently supports only PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_ENTRY, PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_EXIT, and PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_SECCOMP operations. Other operations could be added later if needed. Ideally, PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO should have been introduced along with PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO, but it didn't happen. The last straw that convinced me to implement PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO was apparent failure to provide an API of changing the first system call argument on riscv architecture [1]. ptrace(2) man page: long ptrace(enum __ptrace_request request, pid_t pid, void *addr, void *data); ... PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO Modify information about the system call that caused the stop. The "data" argument is a pointer to struct ptrace_syscall_info that specifies the system call information to be set. The "addr" argument should be set to sizeof(struct ptrace_syscall_info)). This patch (of 6): hexagon is the only architecture that provides HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK but doesn't define syscall_set_return_value(). Since this function is going to be needed on all HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK architectures to implement PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API, add it on hexagon, too.
