test: switch TEST-55-OOMD stress-ng --vm-method to lfsr32
Commit 881e4717c7 ("test: pin stress-ng --vm-method to a portable
scalar method in TEST-55-OOMD") pinned --vm-method=zero-one with the
rationale that it is "a long-standing scalar method". That rationale is
wrong: stress_vm_zero_one() in stress-ng's stress-vm.c is declared
i.e. it carries the exact same TARGET_CLONES attribute as 33 of the 35
other vm methods. On x86_64 with GCC >=5, TARGET_CLONES expands (see
core-target-clones.h in stress-ng) to a target_clones attribute
including "arch=skylake-avx512", "arch=cooperlake", "arch=tigerlake",
"arch=sapphirerapids", and several other AVX-512-bearing arch variants,
plus "default". GCC generates AVX-512 clones of stress_vm_zero_one() and
the IFUNC resolver picks them on any CPU that advertises AVX-512.
The only vm methods in stress-ng's registry whose function definitions
omit TARGET_CLONES entirely (and are therefore guaranteed not to
dispatch to an AVX-512 clone) are lfsr32 (portable, always registered)
and write64ds (x86_64-only, gated on HAVE_ASM_X86_MOVDIRI, i.e. Intel
Tremont / Tiger Lake+ MOVDIRI instruction).
Switch the four stress-ng --vm invocations in TEST-55-OOMD to
--vm-method=lfsr32 so the AVX-512 SIGILL on CPUs without AVX-512 (e.g.
AMD Zen 1-3) can no longer occur regardless of compiler version,
optimization level, or stress-ng package build.

udev: predictable names for auxiliary sub-function (SF) devices (#42154)
Some drivers (currently mlx5_core) expose sub-functions (SFs) of a PCI
Physical or Virtual Function as auxiliary devices that carry a stable
`sfnum` sysfs attribute (the user-defined SF number passed to `devlink
port add ... sfnum N`). Their leaf devices (net, infiniband, ...)
currently inherit the parent PF/VF's `ID_PATH` and the SF netdev falls
through to the kernel-assigned `eth<N>` name.
Two patches:
1. `udev-builtin-path_id`: prepend an `sf-<N>` token when the walk
crosses an aux device with `sfnum`, so SF leaf devices get an `ID_PATH`
distinct from the parent PF/VF (e.g. `pci-0000:c1:00.0-sf-88`). Aux
devices without `sfnum` keep the pre-patch behaviour, so existing
`ID_PATH` values are unchanged and the patch needs no naming-scheme gate
(path_id is unversioned).
2. `udev-builtin-net_id`: name SF host netdevs analogously to SR-IOV VF
host netdevs — walk to the parent PCI function and append a
single-character `S<sfnum>` suffix. SFs hosted on SR-IOV VFs (VF-SF) get
both suffixes chained on the PF's base name (`enp193s0f0v0S88`). Gated
behind `NAMING_SUBFUNC` / `NAMING_V261`. Man page
(`systemd.net-naming-scheme(7)`) updated.
The patches apply to any driver that exposes its SF leaf devices below
an aux device exposing `sfnum`.
Validated on mlx5 hardware: PF, VF, SF-on-PF (`enp8s0f0S88`,
`pci-0000:08:00.0-sf-88`). VF-SF case verified with a fake-sysfs setup
since this is not supported by any real device and is more a theoretical
use case.

resolve: cap pre-allocation for questions/RRs
Since [0] and [1] questions & answer RRs from the incoming packets are
parsed into a hashmap to speed things up. The hashmaps are even
pre-allocated to speed things up even more, but there's one caveat - the
size for the pre-allocation comes from one or more fields from the
incoming packets that are under sender's control.
This can be abused by a malicious DNS server which can send a packet
with a spoofed QDCOUNT (for question packets) or ANCOUNT/NSCOUNT/ARCOUNT
(for answer packets). The limit of the final value in both cases is 64K.
This value is then used to pre-allocate the hashmap (via
set_reserve()/ordered_set_reserve(), where the caller also multiplies
the input value by 2 in both cases), which in turns calls
resize_buckets() that memzero()s the pre-allocated area, so all the
pages are faulted in, showing in process' RSS. Each such spoofed packet
then can translate into a ~4 MiB allocation in the systemd-resolved
process, which doesn't sound that bad.
However, this can be further amplified if the spoofed packet ends up in
resolved's cache. So, if the spoofed packet contains one valid A record
and then an OPT record with a spoofed ARCOUNT, the whole packet ends up
in the cache that can hold 4K of entries, which can eventually cause
resolved to keep up to 16 GiB of memory just for the cache (and thanks
to the memzero() above it's all RSS). Note that all this requires
someone with enough privileges to configure resolved to actually point
to such malicious DNS server or it could come from a malicious DHCP
server on the network. This could also get exploited via LLMNR, but in
thas case an attacker would have to match an ID of a valid transaction
for the packet to end up in resolved's cache.
For example, with a malicious DNS already in resolved configuration:
$ resolvectl dns eth0
Link 2 (eth0): 192.168.99.1:5354
Filling resolved's cache:
$ for i in {0..4200}; do resolvectl query test-$i.example.com; done
...
test-4200.example.com: 192.0.2.1 -- link: dummy0
-- Information acquired via protocol DNS in 1.6ms.
-- Data is authenticated: no; Data was acquired via local or encrypted transport: no
-- Data from: network
In my testing I also noticed one annoyance - after certain threshold the
RSS increase persisted even after the malicious entries were evicted
from the cache (or flushed via `resolvectl flush-caches`). This was most
likely due to mmap_threshold getting bumped to > 4 MiB and neither cache
eviction nor flush-caches call malloc_trim(0) (via
sd_event_trim_memory() or similar).
To mitigate this, let's cap the pre-allocation to a maximum number of
records the given packet body can realistically contain. If the minimum
size would be, for whatever unlikely reason, not enough, nothing serious
would happen - the hashmap would still get resized automatically by
resize_buckets(), it'd be just slightly slower.

udev-builtin-net_id: name auxiliary sub-function (SF) host network devices
Some drivers (currently mlx5_core) expose sub-functions (SFs) of a PCI
Physical Function as auxiliary devices. Each SF carries a host network
interface that sits below the aux device in sysfs:
Because the network device's immediate parent is the aux device and not
a PCI device, names_pci() bails out and these interfaces fall through
to the kernel-assigned eth<N> name, which is not stable across reboots,
module reloads or topology changes.
The naming applies when the SF network device's direct sysfs parent is
the aux device that exposes sfnum, i.e. the kernel driver passes the
aux device to SET_NETDEV_DEV(). mlx5_core does so. ice's
ice_sf_cfg_netdev() currently passes the parent PF's PCI device, so ice
SF network devices sit as siblings of the PF rather than below the aux
device and fall outside this precondition; pending a kernel change in
ice to mirror mlx5's SET_NETDEV_DEV(netdev, &adev->dev), they continue
to receive the kernel-assigned name as they do today.
The aux device exposes 'sfnum', the user-defined sub-function number
(the value passed to "devlink port add ... sfnum N"), which is stable
and unique within its parent PF. The aux device's direct sysfs parent
is the PF's PCI device.
Treat an SF host network device analogously to an SR-IOV VF host
network device: walk to the parent PCI function, derive the base name
from there, then append a single-character "S<sfnum>" suffix. Lowercase
's' is already taken (slot) and the existing grammar uses one character
per token, so 'S' is the best option.
E.g. for an SF whose parent PF is at PCI 0000:c1:00.0 and which was
added with "sfnum 88":
This is parallel to how SR-IOV VFs get a "v<N>" suffix on top of the
parent PF's name.
Gate the new behaviour behind NAMING_SUBFUNC and NAMING_V261. Document
the new suffix in both the ID_NET_NAME_SLOT and ID_NET_NAME_PATH

udev-builtin-path_id: emit 'sf-<N>' token for auxiliary sub-functions
Some drivers expose sub-functions (SFs) of a PCI Physical or Virtual
Function as auxiliary devices that carry a stable 'sfnum' sysfs
attribute — the user-defined sub-function number (e.g. the value
passed to "devlink port add ... sfnum N"). The SF's leaf devices
(uverbs, infiniband, net, ...) sit below this aux device in sysfs:
/sys/devices/.../<PF or VF BDF>/<sf aux>/.../<leaf>
Currently path_id walks straight past the aux device, so all leaf
devices below an SF end up sharing ID_PATH=pci-<BDF> with their
parent PF or VF. For uverbs this causes a /dev/infiniband/by-path/
symlink collision, and for any other consumer of ID_PATH/ID_PATH_TAG
it makes PF and SF (or VF and VF-SF) indistinguishable.
Recognise the 'auxiliary' subsystem in path_id's walk: when the aux
device exposes 'sfnum', prepend an 'sf-<N>' token; otherwise leave
it untokenised. The result for an SF whose parent PF is at PCI
0000:c1:00.0 and which was added with "sfnum 88" is:
This is parallel to how net_id's NAMING_SUBFUNC scheme appends 'S<N>'
on top of the PF base name. Aux devices without 'sfnum' keep the
pre-patch behaviour: the walk skips over them with no token. Existing
ID_PATH values for PF and VF leaf devices are therefore unchanged,
the change is purely additive, and there is no need to gate it behind
a naming scheme (path_id itself is unversioned).

callers don't have to gate every translatable message on a runtime
check. pam_systemd_home — currently the only consumer of _() — calls
dlopen_libintl() best-effort from each PAM entry point.
The meson find_library('intl') dance is replaced with a has_header()
check; the only thing we need at build time is the prototype.

tree-wide: Use our own macros instead of fabs()/fmax()/fmin()
To make this work, ABS() is made generic so it also works on
floats and doubles.
While at it, fold the __ABS_INTEGER indirection and the
assert_cc(sizeof(long long) == sizeof(intmax_t)) away. The previous
form switched between __builtin_llabs (clang) and __builtin_imaxabs
(gcc), with the assert keeping the two paths behaviorally identical
on every platform we build for. imaxabs was originally chosen because
intmax_t is conceptually the widest signed integer type the platform
exposes, but the _Generic ABS already casts to (long long) before the
call, so the extra width imaxabs could in theory carry was being
narrowed away immediately anyway. With both paths collapsed to
__builtin_llabs((long long) (a)), the size relationship between
long long and intmax_t is no longer relevant.
Also add explicit unsigned long long / unsigned long / unsigned int
cases that pass the argument through unchanged. The previous default
branch cast unsigned values to (long long); for values above LLONG_MAX
this reinterprets them as negative, and __builtin_llabs(LLONG_MIN) is
UB. Unsigned values are already non-negative, so passing them through
is both correct and avoids the narrowing. Smaller unsigned types
(unsigned char, unsigned short) still go through the default branch
but promote to int first and fit in long long losslessly.

In hsv_to_rgb, restructure the conversion around the sector index
k = (int)(h/60) and fractional offset f = h/60 - k. The auxiliary
x value becomes c * (k & 1 ? 1.0 - f : f) and the six branches turn
into a switch on k. This drops the two xfmod() calls that were doing
the modulo work, in exchange for a single assert(h >= 0 && h < 360) —
all in-tree callers satisfy this and never relied on the wrap.
In rgb_to_hsv, the two xfmod() calls were no-ops (their arguments
were always within the divisor's magnitude). The trailing
xfmod(*ret_h, 360) appeared to be wrapping negative hues from the
r-max branch back into [0, 360), but fmod is sign-preserving so it
never did. Drop the no-ops and add an explicit +360 wrap so magenta
(1, 0, 1) now yields h ≈ 300 instead of -60.
Extend the tests to cover all six primary/secondary colors at sector
boundaries, all six sector midpoints (to catch any future inversion
of the ramp direction), the h-near-360 edge of the last sector, and
the rgb_to_hsv negative-wrap path via magenta. Switch the new and
existing integer-channel checks to ASSERT_EQ from tests.h; the
double-typed h/s/v range checks stay on ASSERT_TRUE since the
ASSERT_* comparison macros only support integer types.

tree-wide: dlopen libpam in pam plugins
Same reasoning as for cryptsetup tokens. It means we can include
the pam plugins in the main systemd package without the package
manager introducing a dependency on libpam. It also makes things

a lot simpler.
At the same time, we get rid of the libpam_misc dependency as the

cryptsetup: dlopen libcryptsetup in tokens
This avoids having to subpackage the tokens separately. If they link directly
against libcryptsetup, package manager will automatically add a dependency on
libcryptsetup to the package containing the tokens. With this change, the tokens
can ship in the main systemd package without necessarily pulling in libcryptsetup.
It also makes things more consistent. Once we also do the same for pam, any direct
linking will be limited to just libc, which for example simplifies writing tests for
ensuring we don't link unnecessarily as we don't have to add exceptions for the
cryptsetup tokens.
This actually drops the dependency on cryptsetup-libs for the fedora/centos/opensuse
systemd-udev package so install it explicitly in the initrd now to keep the tests
working.

bpf-util: rename from bpf-dlopen, unify version-specific symbol handling
Renames src/shared/bpf-dlopen.{c,h} to src/shared/bpf-util.{c,h} and
folds the former src/shared/bpf-compat.h (struct forward decl and
compat_bpf_map_create() helper) into the new header.
Aligns dlopen_bpf() with the standard wrapper pattern: drops the
manual dlopen_safe()/dlsym_many_or_warn()/TAKE_PTR(dl) plumbing and
the bespoke 'cached' int in favor of dlopen_many_sym_or_warn() inside
a FOREACH_STRING() soname-fallback loop.
Unifies declaration of the version-specific symbols (bpf_create_map,
bpf_map_create, bpf_object__next_map, bpf_token_create) into a single
DISABLE_WARNING_REDUNDANT_DECLS block in the header, and alphabetically
merges the DLSYM_PROTOTYPE list. DLSYM_OPTIONAL is used to load each
one — call sites already handle NULL (compat_bpf_map_create() and the
sym_bpf_object__next_map guard in userns-restrict.c). bpf_token_create
additionally defaults to a missing_bpf_token_create() stub returning
-ENOSYS, so callers can branch on the errno instead of NULL-checking
the pointer.
Updates test-bpf-token to match: drops the compile-time
LIBBPF_MAJOR_VERSION ≥ 1.5 gate and the direct <bpf/bpf.h> include in
favor of dlopen_bpf() + sym_bpf_token_create(), and treats -ENOSYS as
the test-skip path (covering both 'libbpf too old' and 'kernel lacks
BPF_TOKEN_CREATE support').

errno-util: include -ENOENT in ERRNO_IS_XATTR_ABSENT()
The getxattr(2) man page only enumerates xattr-specific errors (ENODATA,
ENOTSUP, ERANGE, E2BIG, ...) in its own ERRORS section, but at the
bottom of that section notes that "the errors documented in stat(2) can
also be returned." stat(2) returns -ENOENT when a component of the path
does not exist, so any xattr lookup against a path can fail with -ENOENT
exactly the same way as -ENODATA — both mean "there is nothing here for
me to read." The previous definition of ERRNO_IS_NEG_XATTR_ABSENT()
reflected only the directly-enumerated errors and missed -ENOENT, so
callers that should semantically swallow "the xattr is absent" instead
bubbled -ENOENT up as a hard error.
The most visible consequence on real fleets has been systemd-journald
spamming dmesg with one line per dispatched log message whenever a
unit's cgroup directory cannot be found at the time
client_context_read_log_filter_patterns() is called — typically inside
containers whose journald observes clients whose unit cgroup is no
longer present in its view (cgroup-namespace boundary, unit teardown
race, transient sub-scope already collapsed back to its unit cgroup,
etc.). The same bug pattern lurks at every other cgroup-xattr callsite:
systemd-oomd reading user.oomd_avoid / user.oomd_omit / user.oomd_ooms
on cgroups it is concurrently killing; killall reading
user.survive_final_kill_signal during shutdown; cg_is_delegated() /
cg_has_coredump_receive() / cgroup_get_managed_oom_kill_last(); etc. For
these, "path is gone" is by construction the same answer as "xattr is
not set" — there is no way for the user to have attached an xattr to a
path that does not exist.
A quick survey of non-cgroup callers (src/portable/portable.c,
src/home/{homework-luks,user-record-util}.c,
src/random-seed/random-seed-tool.c, src/basic/os-util.c) confirms they
all operate on fds or on paths whose absence is already the desired
silent-skip outcome, so widening the macro to also fold in -ENOENT does
not change observable behavior at any other site.
Extend test-xattr-util's getxattr_at_malloc test with an explicit
non-existent-path lookup that asserts ERRNO_IS_NEG_XATTR_ABSENT() now
matches, alongside the pre-existing non-existent-xattr (-ENODATA) check.

- Add cache_size field to Manager struct
- Parse CacheSize= from resolved.conf via gperf
- Thread cache_size through dns_cache_put() and helper functions
- Replace hard-coded CACHE_MAX with the configurable cache_size
- When cache_size is 0 or Cache=no, flush cache and skip caching
