selftest/arm64: Fix sve2p1_sigill() to hwcap test

2026-03-13T16:20:47Z

[ Upstream commit d87c828daa7ead9763416f75cc416496969cf1dc ] The FEAT_SVE2p1 is indicated by ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1.SVEver. However, the BFADD requires the FEAT_SVE_B16B16, which is indicated by ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1.B16B16. This could cause the test to incorrectly fail on a CPU that supports FEAT_SVE2.1 but not FEAT_SVE_B16B16. LD1Q Gather load quadwords which is decoded from SVE encodings and implied by FEAT_SVE2p1.

selftests/harness: order TEST_F and XFAIL_ADD constructors

2026-03-13T16:20:45Z

[ Upstream commit 6be2681514261324c8ee8a1c6f76cefdf700220f ] TEST_F() allocates and registers its struct __test_metadata via mmap() inside its constructor, and only then assigns the _##fixture_##test##_object pointer. XFAIL_ADD() runs in a constructor too and reads _##fixture_##test##_object to initialize xfail->test. If XFAIL_ADD runs first, xfail->test can be NULL and the expected failure will be reported as FAIL. Use constructor priorities to ensure TEST_F registration runs before XFAIL_ADD, without adding extra state or runtime lookups.

kselftest/harness: Use helper to avoid zero-size memset warning

2026-03-13T16:20:45Z

[ Upstream commit 19b8a76cd99bde6d299e60490f3e62b8d3df3997 ] When building kselftests with a toolchain that enables source fortification (e.g., Android's build environment, which uses -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3), a build failure occurs in tests that use an empty FIXTURE(). The root cause is that an empty fixture struct results in `sizeof(self_private)` evaluating to 0. The compiler's fortification checks then detect the `memset()` call with a compile-time constant size of 0, issuing a `-Wuser-defined-warnings` which is promoted to an error by `-Werror`. An initial attempt to guard the call with `if (sizeof(self_private) > 0)` was insufficient. The compiler's static analysis is aggressive enough to flag the `memset(..., 0)` pattern before evaluating the conditional, thus still triggering the error. To resolve this robustly, this change introduces a `static inline` helper function, `__kselftest_memset_safe()`. This function wraps the size check and the `memset()` call. By replacing the direct `memset()` in the `__TEST_F_IMPL` macro with a call to this helper, we create an abstraction boundary. This prevents the compiler's static analyzer from "seeing" the problematic pattern at the macro expansion site, resolving the build failure.

kunit: tool: copy caller args in run_kernel to prevent mutation

2026-03-13T16:20:40Z

[ Upstream commit 40804c4974b8df2adab72f6475d343eaff72b7f6 ] run_kernel() appended KUnit flags directly to the caller-provided args list. When exec_tests() calls run_kernel() repeatedly (e.g. with --run_isolated), each call mutated the same list, causing later runs to inherit stale filter_glob values and duplicate kunit.enable flags. Fix this by copying args at the start of run_kernel(). Add a regression test that calls run_kernel() twice with the same list and verifies the original remains unchanged.

selftests: mptcp: join: check removing signal+subflow endp

2026-03-13T16:20:36Z

commit 1777f349ff41b62dfe27454b69c27b0bc99ffca5 upstream. This validates the previous commit: endpoints with both the signal and subflow flags should always be marked as used even if it was not possible to create new subflows due to the MPTCP PM limits. For this test, an extra endpoint is created with both the signal and the subflow flags, and limits are set not to create extra subflows. In this case, an ADD_ADDR is sent, but no subflows are created. Still, the local endpoint is marked as used, and no warning is fired when removing the endpoint, after having sent a RM_ADDR. The 'Fixes' tag here below is the same as the one from the previous commit: this patch here is not fixing anything wrong in the selftests, but it validates the previous fix for an issue introduced by this commit ID.

selftests: mptcp: more stable simult_flows tests

2026-03-13T16:20:36Z

commit 8c09412e584d9bcc0e71d758ec1008d1c8d1a326 upstream. By default, the netem qdisc can keep up to 1000 packets under its belly to deal with the configured rate and delay. The simult flows test-case simulates very low speed links, to avoid problems due to slow CPUs and the TCP stack tend to transmit at a slightly higher rate than the (virtual) link constraints. All the above causes a relatively large amount of packets being enqueued in the netem qdiscs - the longer the transfer, the longer the queue - producing increasingly high TCP RTT samples and consequently increasingly larger receive buffer size due to DRS. When the receive buffer size becomes considerably larger than the needed size, the tests results can flake, i.e. because minimal inaccuracy in the pacing rate can lead to a single subflow usage towards the end of the connection for a considerable amount of data. Address the issue explicitly setting netem limits suitable for the configured link speeds and unflake all the affected tests.

selftests/mm/charge_reserved_hugetlb: drop mount size for hugetlbfs

2026-03-04T12:21:46Z

[ Upstream commit 1aa1dd9cc595917882fb6db67725442956f79607 ] charge_reserved_hugetlb.sh mounts a hugetlbfs instance at /mnt/huge with a fixed size of 256M. On systems with large base hugepages (e.g. 512MB), this is smaller than a single hugepage, so the hugetlbfs mount ends up with zero capacity (often visible as size=0 in mount output).

libperf build: Always place libperf includes first

[ Upstream commit 8c5b40678c63be6b85f1c2dc8c8b89d632faf988 ] When building tools/perf the CFLAGS can contain a directory for the installed headers. As the headers may be being installed while building libperf.a this can cause headers to be partially installed and found in the include path while building an object file for libperf.a. The installed header may reference other installed headers that are missing given the partial nature of the install and then the build fails with a missing header file. Avoid this by ensuring the libperf source headers are always first in the CFLAGS.
