Pull bpf updates from Daniel Borkmann: "Major changes: - Redesign the verifier error reporting: failures now carry source and instruction annotations along with the causal event history that led to them, making program rejections far easier to debug and repair (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi) - Add arena argument support to kfuncs and struct_ops through the new __arena and __arena__nullable suffixes (Tejun Heo, Puranjay Mohan, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Ihor Solodrai) - Signed BPF program loader rework to accommodate both BPF and security community needs where the kernel runs the signature verification at BPF_PROG_LOAD time before the LSM admission hook (Daniel Borkmann) - Add a set of ksock kfuncs which let BPF LSM and syscall programs create, connect and send on UDP sockets in order to emit telemetry data (Mahe Tardy) - Unify helper and kfunc call argument verification and classify kfunc arguments purely from BTF into a generated bpf_func_proto which is computed once at add-call time (Amery Hung) Other features and fixes: -

arm64: insn: Add encoder for ADD/SUB (extended register)

2026-08-14T03:55:01+00:00

The insn library encodes the immediate and shifted-register forms of ADD/SUB but not the extended-register form. The BPF JIT wants it to rebase a 32-bit arena offset onto the arena kernel base in a single instruction, add xN, xBASE, wN, uxtw, instead of a separate zero-extend followed by a plain add. Add aarch64_insn_gen_add_sub_extended_reg(), modeled on the shifted-register generator. The option and imm3 fields occupy the same bits as the shifted form's shift amount, so they are encoded through the existing IMM_6 field type. The opt field in bits 23:22 is part of the opcode here rather than a shift type, and any value other than 00 is unallocated, so the decode masks cover it. Note that register 31 does not mean the same thing in the two forms: in the extended-register encoding it is SP for Rn, and for Rd unless the instruction sets the flags, while it stays XZR for Rm. Callers porting a shifted-register site that passes A64_ZR need to be aware of that, so say so above the function.

arm64: Disable KCSAN instrumentation in delay.o

2026-08-10T15:14:13+00:00

KCSAN relies on udelay() for injecting delays. To avoid recursively triggering a watchpoint, where KCSAN sets up watchpoint on an address that is accessed by udelay() in the same thread, disable instrumentation in arm64's delay implementation. Paul found a manifestation of this as follows: | BUG: KCSAN: data-race in __delay / set_need_resched_current | | read (marked) to 0xffff000005899b48 of 8 bytes by interrupt on cpu 8: | __delay+0xb0/0x378 | __udelay+0x4c/0x60 | kcsan_setup_watchpoint+0x3b4/0x820 | __tsan_unaligned_write4+0x228/0x26c | set_need_resched_current+0x138/0x1a8 | rcu_exp_handler+0x418/0x4a0 | __flush_smp_call_function_queue+0x36c/0x4a0 | generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt+0x20/0x30 | ipi_handler+0xec/0x558 | handle_percpu_devid_irq+0x220/0x2a0 | generic_handle_domain_irq+0x84/0xb4 | gic_handle_irq+0x64/0x144 | call_on_irq_stack+0x30/0x48 | do_interrupt_handler+0x80/0xb8 | el1_interrupt+0x3c/0x60 | el1h_64_irq_handler+0x18/0x24 | el1h_64_irq+0x6c/0x70 | smp_call_function_single+0x18c/0x25c | sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus+0x534/0x8bc | rcu_exp_sel_wait_wake+0x358/0xef4 | wait_rcu_exp_gp+0x30/0x44 | kthread_worker_fn+0x1b4/0x5dc | kthread+0x1d8/0x204 | ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 | | write to 0xffff000005899b4c of 4 bytes by interrupt on cpu 8: | set_need_resched_current+0x138/0x1a8 | [...] This matches what is already done in arch/x86/lib/Makefile.

bpf, arm64: Reject out-of-range B.cond targets

2026-04-15T19:07:57+00:00

aarch64_insn_gen_cond_branch_imm() calls label_imm_common() to compute a 19-bit signed byte offset for a conditional branch, but unlike its siblings aarch64_insn_gen_branch_imm() and aarch64_insn_gen_comp_branch_imm(), it does not check whether label_imm_common() returned its out-of-range sentinel (range) before feeding the value to aarch64_insn_encode_immediate(). aarch64_insn_encode_immediate() unconditionally masks the value with the 19-bit field mask, so an offset that was rejected by label_imm_common() gets silently truncated. With the sentinel value SZ_1M, the resulting field ends up with bit 18 (the sign bit of the 19-bit signed displacement) set, and the CPU decodes it as a ~1 MiB *backward* branch, producing an incorrectly targeted B.cond instruction. For code-gen locations like the emit_bpf_tail_call() this function is the only barrier between an overflowing displacement and a silently miscompiled branch. Fix it by returning AARCH64_BREAK_FAULT when the offset is out of range, so callers see a loud failure instead of a silently misencoded branch. validate_code() scans the generated image for any AARCH64_BREAK_FAULT and then lets the JIT fail.

arm64: move the XOR code to lib/raid/

Note that this drops the CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON dependency, as that is always set for arm64.

arm64: Fix sampling the "stable" virtual counter in preemptible section

2026-02-26T18:12:48+00:00

Ben reports that when running with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT, using __arch_counter_get_cntvct_stable() results in well deserves warnings, as we access a per-CPU variable without preemption disabled. Fix the issue by disabling preemption on reading the counter. We can probably do a lot better by not disabling preemption on systems that do not require horrible workarounds to return a valid counter value, but this plugs the issue for the time being.

arm64: Force the use of CNTVCT_EL0 in __delay()

2026-02-19T12:32:54+00:00

Quentin forwards a report from Hyesoo Yu, describing an interesting problem with the use of WFxT in __delay() when a vcpu is loaded and that KVM is *not* in VHE mode (either nVHE or hVHE). In this case, CNTVOFF_EL2 is set to a non-zero value to reflect the state of the guest virtual counter. At the same time, __delay() is using get_cycles() to read the counter value, which is indirected to reading CNTPCT_EL0. The core of the issue is that WFxT is using the *virtual* counter, while the kernel is using the physical counter, and that the offset introduces a really bad discrepancy between the two. Fix this by forcing the use of CNTVCT_EL0, making __delay() consistent irrespective of the value of CNTVOFF_EL2.

arm64: Unconditionally enable LSE support

LSE atomics have been in the architecture since ARMv8.1 (released in 2014), and are hopefully supported by all modern toolchains. Drop the optional nature of LSE support in the kernel, and always compile the support in, as this really is very little code. LL/SC still is the default, and the switch to LSE is done dynamically.
