Hi Linus, Please pull these execve updates for v6.17. Note that while the REGSET macro changes touch all the architectures, they are fairly mechanical and have been in linux-next for almost the entire development window.
Thanks! -Kees The following changes since commit e04c78d86a9699d136910cfc0bdcf01087e3267e: Linux 6.16-rc2 (2025-06-15 13:49:41 -0700) are available in the Git repository at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux.git tags/execve-v6.17 for you to fetch changes up to 7f71195c15dcf5f34c4c7f056603659374e3a525: fork: reorder function qualifiers for copy_clone_args_from_user (2025-07-17 16:37:05 -0700) ---------------------------------------------------------------- execve updates for v6.17 - Introduce regular REGSET note macros arch-wide (Dave Martin) - Remove arbitrary 4K limitation of program header size (Yin Fengwei) - Reorder function qualifiers for copy_clone_args_from_user() (Dishank Jogi) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Martin (23): regset: Fix kerneldoc for struct regset_get() in user_regset regset: Add explicit core note name in struct user_regset binfmt_elf: Dump non-arch notes with strictly matching name and type ARC: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names ARM: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names arm64: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names csky: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names hexagon: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names LoongArch: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names m68k: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names MIPS: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names nios2: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names openrisc: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names parisc: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names powerpc/ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names riscv: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names s390/ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names sh: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names sparc: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names x86/ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names um: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names xtensa: ptrace: Use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to specify regset note names binfmt_elf: Warn on missing or suspicious regset note names Dishank Jogi (1): fork: reorder function qualifiers for copy_clone_args_from_user Yin Fengwei (1): binfmt_elf: remove the 4k limitation of program header size include/linux/regset.h | 12 +++++- arch/arc/kernel/ptrace.c | 4 +- arch/arm/kernel/ptrace.c | 6 +-- arch/arm64/kernel/ptrace.c | 52 +++++++++++----------- arch/csky/kernel/ptrace.c | 4 +- arch/hexagon/kernel/ptrace.c | 2 +- arch/loongarch/kernel/ptrace.c | 16 +++---- arch/m68k/kernel/ptrace.c | 4 +- arch/mips/kernel/ptrace.c | 20 ++++----- arch/nios2/kernel/ptrace.c | 2 +- arch/openrisc/kernel/ptrace.c | 4 +- arch/parisc/kernel/ptrace.c | 8 ++-- arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace/ptrace-view.c | 74 ++++++++++++++++---------------- arch/riscv/kernel/ptrace.c | 12 +++--- arch/s390/kernel/ptrace.c | 42 +++++++++--------- arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_32.c | 4 +- arch/sparc/kernel/ptrace_32.c | 4 +- arch/sparc/kernel/ptrace_64.c | 8 ++-- arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c | 22 +++++----- arch/x86/um/ptrace.c | 10 ++--- arch/xtensa/kernel/ptrace.c | 4 +- fs/binfmt_elf.c | 38 ++++++++++------ fs/binfmt_elf_fdpic.c | 17 ++++---- kernel/fork.c | 2 +- 24 files changed, 196 insertions(+), 175 deletions(-) -- Kees Cook
