Commit 08ae2487b202 ("tomoyo: automatically use patterns for several
situations in learning mode") replaced only $PID part of procfs pathname
with \$ pattern. But it turned out that we need to also replace $TID part
and $FD part to make this functionality useful for e.g. /bin/lsof .

<title>treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable</title>

<id>1751f872cc97f992ed5c4c72c55588db1f0021e1</id>

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.

Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command:
Spatch:
    virtual patch

    depends on !(file in "net")
    disable optional_qualifier

Pull fsnotify pre-content notification support from Jan Kara:
 "This introduces a new fsnotify event (FS_PRE_ACCESS) that gets
  generated before a file contents is accessed.

  The event is synchronous so if there is listener for this event, the
  kernel waits for reply. On success the execution continues as usual,
  on failure we propagate the error to userspace. This allows userspace
  to fill in file content on demand from slow storage. The context in
  which the events are generated has been picked so that we don't hold
  any locks and thus there's no risk of a deadlock for the userspace
  handler.

  The new pre-content event is available only for users with global
  CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (similarly to other parts of fanotify
  functionality) and it is an administrator responsibility to make sure
  the userspace event handler doesn't do stupid stuff that can DoS the
  system.

  Based on your feedback from the last submission, fsnotify code has
  been improved and now file-&gt;f_mode encodes whether pre-content event
  needs to be generated for the file so the fast path when nobody wants
  pre-content event for the file just grows the additional file-&gt;f_mode
  check. As a bonus this also removes the checks whether the old
  FS_ACCESS event needs to be generated from the fast path. Also the
  place where the event is generated during page fault has been moved so
  now filemap_fault() generates the event if and only if there is no
  uptodate folio in the page cache.

  Also we have dropped FS_PRE_MODIFY event as current real-world users
  of the pre-content functionality don't really use it so let's start
  with the minimal useful feature set"

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
 "A smaller than usual release cycle.

  The main changes are:

   - Prepare selftest to run with GCC-BPF backend (Ihor Solodrai)

     In addition to LLVM-BPF runs the BPF CI now runs GCC-BPF in compile
     only mode. Half of the tests are failing, since support for
     btf_decl_tag is still WIP, but this is a great milestone.

   - Convert various samples/bpf to selftests/bpf/test_progs format
     (Alexis Lothoré and Bastien Curutchet)

   - Teach verifier to recognize that array lookup with constant
     in-range index will always succeed (Daniel Xu)

   - Cleanup migrate disable scope in BPF maps (Hou Tao)

   - Fix bpf_timer destroy path in PREEMPT_RT (Hou Tao)

   - Always use bpf_mem_alloc in bpf_local_storage in PREEMPT_RT (Martin
     KaFai Lau)

   - Refactor verifier lock support (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)

     This is a prerequisite for upcoming resilient spin lock.

   - Remove excessive 'may_goto +0' instructions in the verifier that
     LLVM leaves when unrolls the loops (Yonghong Song)

   - Remove unhelpful bpf_probe_write_user() warning message (Marco
     Elver)

   - Add fd_array_cnt attribute for prog_load command (Anton Protopopov)

     This is a prerequisite for upcoming support for static_branch"

* tag 'bpf-next-6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next: (125 commits)
  selftests/bpf: Add some tests related to 'may_goto 0' insns
  bpf: Remove 'may_goto 0' instruction in opt_remove_nops()
  bpf: Allow 'may_goto 0' instruction in verifier
  selftests/bpf: Add test case for the freeing of bpf_timer
  bpf: Cancel the running bpf_timer through kworker for PREEMPT_RT

  bpf: Bail out early in __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_elem()
  bpf: Free special fields after unlock in htab_lru_map_delete_node()

  libbpf: Work around kernel inconsistently stripping '.llvm.' suffix
  bpf: selftests: verifier: Add nullness elision tests
  bpf: verifier: Support eliding map lookup nullness
