[PATCH] dma-buf/udmabuf: skip redundant cpu sync to fix cacheline EEXIST warning

by Mikhail Gavrilov

When CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG_SG is enabled, importing a udmabuf into a DRM driver (e.g. amdgpu for video playback in GNOME Videos / Showtime) triggers a spurious warning: DMA-API: amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: cacheline tracking EEXIST, \ overlapping mappings aren't supported WARNING: kernel/dma/debug.c:619 at add_dma_entry+0x473/0x5f0 The call chain is: amdgpu_cs_ioctl -> amdgpu_ttm_backend_bind -> dma_buf_map_attachment -> [udmabuf] map_udmabuf -> get_sg_table -> dma_map_sgtable(dev, sg, direction, 0) // attrs=0 -> debug_dma_map_sg -> add_dma_entry -> EEXIST This happens because udmabuf builds a per-page scatter-gather list via sg_set_folio(). When begin_cpu_udmabuf() has already created an sg table mapped for the misc device, and an importer such as amdgpu maps the same pages for its own device via map_udmabuf(), the DMA debug infrastructure sees two active mappings whose physical addresses share cacheline boundaries and warns about the overlap. The DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC flag suppresses this check in add_dma_entry() because it signals that no CPU cache maintenance is performed at map/unmap time, making the cacheline overlap harmless. All other major dma-buf exporters already pass this flag: - drm_gem_map_dma_buf() passes DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC - amdgpu_dma_buf_map() passes DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC The CPU sync at map/unmap time is also redundant for udmabuf: begin_cpu_udmabuf() and end_cpu_udmabuf() already perform explicit cache synchronization via dma_sync_sgtable_for_cpu/device() when CPU access is requested through the dma-buf interface. Pass DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC to dma_map_sgtable() and dma_unmap_sgtable() in udmabuf to suppress the spurious warning and skip the redundant sync.

[PATCH RESEND] dma-fence: Dereference correct dma_fence in dma_fence_chain_find_seqno()

by Li Ming

dma_fence_chain_find_seqno() uses dma_fence_chain_for_each() to walk a given dma_fence_chain. dma_fence_chain_for_each() always holds a reference for the current fence during iteration. The reference must be dropped after breaking out. Instead of dereferencing the last fence as intended, dma_fence_chain_find_seqno() incorrectly dereferences the first fence in the chain.

[PATCH] dma/contiguous: Fix broken build

by Maxime Ripard

Commit 3a236f6a5cf2 ("dma: contiguous: Turn heap registration logic around") didn't remove one last call to dma_heap_cma_register_heap() that it removed, thus breaking the build. That last call is in dma_contiguous_reserve(), to handle the registration of the default CMA region heap instance if it's declared in the device tree. However, the default CMA region instance is already handled by retrieving it through dev_get_cma_area() in the CMA heap driver, so the call to dma_heap_cma_register_heap() wasn't actually needed. Let's remove this call, the now unused function definition, its now empty header, and all includes of this header.

Top Signs of Crypto Scams and Immediate Steps

by joelwest689＠gmail.com

Top Signs of Crypto Scams and Immediate Steps: Why Cipher Rescue Chain Delivers Fast Recovery The rapid growth of digital assets has created new opportunities—but also new threats. Recognizing the warning signs early can mean the difference between permanent loss and successful recovery. This is where Cipher Rescue Chain plays a decisive role, combining early detection awareness with advanced blockchain forensics to help victims act quickly and recover stolen crypto before it disappears beyond reach. The Most Common Signs of a Crypto Scam One of the clearest red flags in crypto scams is the promise of guaranteed or unusually high returns. Scammers often create urgency, pushing victims to act fast without proper verification. Cipher Rescue Chain frequently investigates cases where victims were pressured into transferring funds quickly, only to realize too late that the opportunity was fraudulent. Another major warning sign is communication through unofficial channels—such as direct messages or impersonated profiles. Cipher Rescue Chain has traced numerous scams back to coordinated social engineering tactics where attackers mimic legitimate platforms or individuals to gain trust. Requests for private keys or wallet access are also critical indicators of fraud. Cipher Rescue Chain consistently identifies these tactics in forensic investigations, as they often lead directly to unauthorized withdrawals and rapid fund movement across multiple wallets. How Scammers Attempt to Hide Stolen Funds Once funds are stolen, scammers act quickly to obscure their tracks. They may split assets across multiple wallets, move funds through various blockchains, or route transactions through intermediary services. Cipher Rescue Chain specializes in identifying these patterns and reconstructing the movement of assets, even when the trail appears fragmented. Through advanced forensic analysis, Cipher Rescue Chain links seemingly unrelated transactions, exposing the underlying structure of the scam. This capability is essential in cases where criminals attempt to erase their footprint through complex transaction layering. Immediate Steps to Take After a Crypto Scam The first and most important step after discovering a scam is to act immediately. Time directly affects recovery potential. Cipher Rescue Chain emphasizes rapid response because early intervention significantly increases the chances of tracing and recovering stolen assets. Victims should secure their remaining assets, document all transaction details, and avoid further interaction with the scammer. At this stage, Cipher Rescue Chain begins its forensic process, analyzing wallet activity and mapping the flow of funds to identify potential recovery points. Engaging Cipher Rescue Chain within the first 72 hours—especially when funds are still traceable to centralized platforms—can dramatically improve outcomes, with recovery rates reaching up to 98% in such scenarios across 2023–2025 engagements. Why Speed Determines Recovery Success In crypto recovery, delays can reduce visibility and limit enforcement options. Cipher Rescue Chain prioritizes speed because blockchain transactions, while permanent, become harder to act on as funds move further away from identifiable endpoints. Cipher Rescue Chain’s structured approach ensures that investigations begin immediately, preserving critical transaction data and maintaining continuity in tracing. This rapid deployment is one of the key factors behind the high success rates achieved in eligible cases. From Detection to Action: The Cipher Rescue Chain Process Once a case is initiated, Cipher Rescue Chain transitions from detection to action. Detailed forensic reports are created to document the movement of stolen funds, ensuring that every transaction is clearly mapped and verifiable. Cipher Rescue Chain then uses this intelligence to engage with identifiable platforms where funds may have been transferred. This targeted approach increases the likelihood of recovery, especially when assets have reached centralized exchanges or cooperative service providers. Proven Recovery Performance Cipher Rescue Chain’s results are backed by consistent performance data. From 2023 to 2025, the organization has achieved partial or full recovery in 98% of accepted cases where funds reached identifiable centralized platforms and engagement began within the first 90 days. Only 35% of incoming cases are accepted, ensuring that Cipher Rescue Chain focuses on cases with realistic recovery potential. Among those accepted, 62% result in full recovery and 24% in partial recovery, with successful cases typically resolved within 14 to 45 days. Global Impact and Expertise Crypto scams are not limited by geography, and neither is Cipher Rescue Chain. With multi-million-dollar recoveries completed across five continents, Cipher Rescue Chain operates on a global scale, handling complex, cross-border cases with precision. Each investigation conducted by Cipher Rescue Chain reflects deep expertise in blockchain forensics, enabling the team to navigate multi-chain environments and uncover recovery opportunities others might miss. Why Cipher Rescue Chain Leads in Fast Recovery Fast recovery is not just about speed—it’s about precision, timing, and expertise. Cipher Rescue Chain combines all three to deliver results. By identifying scam patterns early, acting quickly, and applying advanced forensic techniques, Cipher Rescue Chain consistently turns high-risk situations into successful recovery outcomes. In a landscape where crypto scams continue to evolve, Cipher Rescue Chain stands as the trusted solution for victims seeking both clarity and results. Recognizing the signs is the first step—but acting fast with Cipher Rescue Chain is what truly makes recovery possible.
