[ Upstream commit dbefa1f31a91670c9e7dac9b559625336206466f ]

Commit b1fca27d384e ("kernel debug: support resetting WARN*_ONCE")
added support for clearing the state of once warnings. However,
it is not functional when CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION or
CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is enabled, because .data.once matches the
.data.[0-9a-zA-Z_]* pattern in the DATA_MAIN macro.

Commit cb87481ee89d ("kbuild: linker script do not match C names unless
LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is configured") was introduced to suppress
the issue for the default CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=n case,
providing a minimal fix for stable backporting. We were aware this did
not address the issue for CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=y. The
plan was to apply correct fixes and then revert cb87481ee89d. [1]

Seven years have passed since then, yet the #ifdef workaround remains in
place. Meanwhile, commit b1fca27d384e introduced the .data.once section,
and commit dc5723b02e52 ("kbuild: add support for Clang LTO") extended
the #ifdef.

Using a ".." separator in the section name fixes the issue for
CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION and CONFIG_LTO_CLANG.

<title>mm: refactor arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and arm64 MTE handling</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c550eec47df8a8e69d4be24ab0c5ce2f022d3d04</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 5baf8b037debf4ec60108ccfeccb8636d1dbad81 ]

Currently MTE is permitted in two circumstances (desiring to use MTE
having been specified by the VM_MTE flag) - where MAP_ANONYMOUS is
specified, as checked by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and actualised by
setting the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag, or if the file backing the mapping is
shmem, in which case we set VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap() when the mmap
hook is activated in mmap_region().

The function that checks that, if VM_MTE is set, VM_MTE_ALLOWED is also
set is the arm64 implementation of arch_validate_flags().

Unfortunately, we intend to refactor mmap_region() to perform this check
earlier, meaning that in the case of a shmem backing we will not have
invoked shmem_mmap() yet, causing the mapping to fail spuriously.

It is inappropriate to set this architecture-specific flag in general mm
code anyway, so a sensible resolution of this issue is to instead move the
check somewhere else.

We resolve this by setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED much earlier in do_mmap(), via
the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() call.

This is an appropriate place to do this as we already check for the
MAP_ANONYMOUS case here, and the shmem file case is simply a variant of
the same idea - we permit RAM-backed memory.

This requires a modification to the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() signature to
pass in a pointer to the struct file associated with the mapping, however
this is not too egregious as this is only used by two architectures anyway
- arm64 and parisc.

So this patch performs this adjustment and removes the unnecessary
assignment of VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap().

The problem was originally introduced by commit b109b87050df ("mm/munlock:
replace clear_page_mlock() by final clearance"): it was focused on
handling pagecache and anonymous memory and wasn't suitable for lower
level get_page()/free_page() API's used for example by KVM, as with this
reproducer.

Fix it by moving the mlocked flag clearance down to free_page_prepare().

The bug itself if fairly old and harmless (aside from generating these
warnings), aside from a small memory leak - "bad" pages are stopped from
being allocated again.

commit 247d720b2c5d22f7281437fd6054a138256986ba upstream.

When deleting a vma entry from a maple tree, it has to pass NULL to
vma_iter_prealloc() in order to calculate internal state of the tree, but
it passed a wrong argument.  As a result, nommu kernels crashed upon
accessing a vma iterator, such as acct_collect() reading the size of vma
entries after do_munmap().

This commit fixes this issue by passing a right argument to the
preallocation call.

<content type='text'>
commit a4a282daf1a190f03790bf163458ea3c8d28d217 upstream.

On 32-bit platforms, it is possible for the expression `len + old_addr &lt;
old_end` to be false-positive if `len + old_addr` wraps around.
`old_addr` is the cursor in the old range up to which page table entries
have been moved; so if the operation succeeded, `old_addr` is the *end* of
the old region, and adding `len` to it can wrap.

The overflow causes mremap() to mistakenly believe that PTEs have been
copied; the consequence is that mremap() bails out, but doesn't move the
PTEs back before the new VMA is unmapped, causing anonymous pages in the
region to be lost.  So basically if userspace tries to mremap() a
private-anon region and hits this bug, mremap() will return an error and
the private-anon region's contents appear to have been zeroed.

The idea of this check is that `old_end - len` is the original start
address, and writing the check that way also makes it easier to read; so
fix the check by rearranging the comparison accordingly.

(An alternate fix would be to refactor this function by introducing an
"orig_old_start" variable or such.)

<title>mm: fix NULL pointer dereference in alloc_pages_bulk_noprof</title>

<id>urn:sha1:31502374627ba9ec3e710dbd0bb00457cc6d2c19</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 8ce41b0f9d77cca074df25afd39b86e2ee3aa68e upstream.

We triggered a NULL pointer dereference for ac.preferred_zoneref-&gt;zone in
alloc_pages_bulk_noprof() when the task is migrated between cpusets.

When cpuset is enabled, in prepare_alloc_pages(), ac-&gt;nodemask may be
&amp;current-&gt;mems_allowed.  when first_zones_zonelist() is called to find
preferred_zoneref, the ac-&gt;nodemask may be modified concurrently if the
task is migrated between different cpusets.  Assuming we have 2 NUMA Node,
when traversing Node1 in ac-&gt;zonelist, the nodemask is 2, and when
traversing Node2 in ac-&gt;zonelist, the nodemask is 1.  As a result, the
ac-&gt;preferred_zoneref points to NULL zone.

In alloc_pages_bulk_noprof(), for_each_zone_zonelist_nodemask() finds a
allowable zone and calls zonelist_node_idx(ac.preferred_zoneref), leading
to NULL pointer dereference.

__alloc_pages_noprof() fixes this issue by checking NULL pointer in commit
ea57485af8f4 ("mm, page_alloc: fix check for NULL preferred_zone") and
commit df76cee6bbeb ("mm, page_alloc: remove redundant checks from alloc
fastpath").

To fix it, check NULL pointer for preferred_zoneref-&gt;zone.

commit 704573851b51808b45dae2d62059d1d8189138a2 upstream.

This patch addresses an issue introduced by commit 1a83a716ec233 ("mm:
krealloc: consider spare memory for __GFP_ZERO") which causes MTE
(Memory Tagging Extension) to falsely report a slab-out-of-bounds error.

The problem occurs when zeroing out spare memory in __do_krealloc. The
original code only considered software-based KASAN and did not account
for MTE. It does not reset the KASAN tag before calling memset, leading
to a mismatch between the pointer tag and the memory tag, resulting
in a false positive.

Example of the error:

<title>mm/thp: fix deferred split unqueue naming and locking</title>

<id>urn:sha1:afb1352d06b1b6b2cfd1f901c766a430c87078b3</id>
<content type='text'>
commit f8f931bba0f92052cf842b7e30917b1afcc77d5a upstream.

Recent changes are putting more pressure on THP deferred split queues:
under load revealing long-standing races, causing list_del corruptions,
"Bad page state"s and worse (I keep BUGs in both of those, so usually
don't get to see how badly they end up without).  The relevant recent
changes being 6.8's mTHP, 6.10's mTHP swapout, and 6.12's mTHP swapin,
improved swap allocation, and underused THP splitting.

Before fixing locking: rename misleading folio_undo_large_rmappable(),
which does not undo large_rmappable, to folio_unqueue_deferred_split(),
which is what it does.  But that and its out-of-line __callee are mm
internals of very limited usability: add comment and WARN_ON_ONCEs to
check usage; and return a bool to say if a deferred split was unqueued,
which can then be used in WARN_ON_ONCEs around safety checks (sparing
callers the arcane conditionals in __folio_unqueue_deferred_split()).

Just omit the folio_unqueue_deferred_split() from free_unref_folios(), all
of whose callers now call it beforehand (and if any forget then bad_page()
will tell) - except for its caller put_pages_list(), which itself no
longer has any callers (and will be deleted separately).

Swapout: mem_cgroup_swapout() has been resetting folio-&gt;memcg_data 0
without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from deferred split list;
which is unfortunate, since the split_queue_lock depends on the memcg
(when memcg is enabled); so swapout has been unqueueing such THPs later,
when freeing the folio, using the pgdat's lock instead: potentially
corrupting the memcg's list.  __remove_mapping() has frozen refcount to 0
here, so no problem with calling folio_unqueue_deferred_split() before
resetting memcg_data.

That goes back to 5.4 commit 87eaceb3faa5 ("mm: thp: make deferred split
shrinker memcg aware"): which included a check on swapcache before adding
to deferred queue, but no check on deferred queue before adding THP to
swapcache.  That worked fine with the usual sequence of events in reclaim
(though there were a couple of rare ways in which a THP on deferred queue
could have been swapped out), but 6.12 commit dafff3f4c850 ("mm: split
underused THPs") avoids splitting underused THPs in reclaim, which makes
swapcache THPs on deferred queue commonplace.

Keep the check on swapcache before adding to deferred queue?  Yes: it is
no longer essential, but preserves the existing behaviour, and is likely
to be a worthwhile optimization (vmstat showed much more traffic on the
queue under swapping load if the check was removed); update its comment.

Memcg-v1 move (deprecated): mem_cgroup_move_account() has been changing
folio-&gt;memcg_data without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from the
deferred list, sometimes corrupting "from" memcg's list, like swapout.
Refcount is non-zero here, so folio_unqueue_deferred_split() can only be
used in a WARN_ON_ONCE to validate the fix, which must be done earlier:
mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range() first try to split the THP (splitting
of course unqueues), or skip it if that fails.  Not ideal, but moving
charge has been requested, and khugepaged should repair the THP later:
nobody wants new custom unqueueing code just for this deprecated case.

The 87eaceb3faa5 commit did have the code to move from one deferred list
to another (but was not conscious of its unsafety while refcount non-0);
but that was removed by 5.6 commit fac0516b5534 ("mm: thp: don't need care
deferred split queue in memcg charge move path"), which argued that the
existence of a PMD mapping guarantees that the THP cannot be on a deferred
list.  As above, false in rare cases, and now commonly false.

Backport to 6.11 should be straightforward.  Earlier backports must take
care that other _deferred_list fixes and dependencies are included.  There
is not a strong case for backports, but they can fix cornercases.

commit faa242b1d2a97143150bdc50d5b61fd70fcd17cd upstream.

After commit 94d7d9233951 ("mm: abstract the vma_merge()/split_vma()
pattern for mprotect() et al."), if vma_modify_flags() return error, the
vma is set to an error code.  This will lead to an invalid prev be
returned.

Generally this shouldn't matter as the caller should treat an error as
indicating state is now invalidated, however unfortunately
apply_mlockall_flags() does not check for errors and assumes that
mlock_fixup() correctly maintains prev even if an error were to occur.

This patch fixes that assumption.
