[PATCH 5.10.y 0/3] rtc: backport support for handling dates before 1970

by Uwe Kleine-König

Hello, this is a followup to https://lore.kernel.org/stable/cover.1749223334.git.u.kleine-koenig@baylibr… that handled backporting the two patches by Alexandre to the active stable kernels between 6.15 and 5.15. Here comes a backport to 5.10.y, git am handles application to 5.4.y just fine. Compared to the backport for later kernels I included a major rework of rtc_time64_to_tm() by Cassio Neri. (FTR: I checked, that commit by Cassio Neri isn't the reason we need to fix rtc_time64_to_tm(), the actual problem is older.) Now that I completed the backport and did some final checks on it I noticed that the problem fixed here is (TTBOMK) a theoretic one because only drivers with .start_secs < 0 are known to have issues and in 5.10 and before there is no such driver. I'm uncertain if this should result in not backporting the changes. I would tend to pick them anyhow, but I won't argue on a veto. Best regards Uwe Alexandre Mergnat (2): rtc: Make rtc_time64_to_tm() support dates before 1970 rtc: Fix offset calculation for .start_secs < 0 Cassio Neri (1): rtc: Improve performance of rtc_time64_to_tm().

[PATCH 6.6.y] net: make for_each_netdev_dump() a little more bug-proof

by Jeremy Kerr

From: Jakub Kicinski <kuba(a)kernel.org> commit f22b4b55edb507a2b30981e133b66b642be4d13f upstream. I find the behavior of xa_for_each_start() slightly counter-intuitive. It doesn't end the iteration by making the index point after the last element. IOW calling xa_for_each_start() again after it "finished" will run the body of the loop for the last valid element, instead of doing nothing. This works fine for netlink dumps if they terminate correctly (i.e. coalesce or carefully handle NLM_DONE), but as we keep getting reminded legacy dumps are unlikely to go away. Fixing this generically at the xa_for_each_start() level seems hard - there is no index reserved for "end of iteration". ifindexes are 31b wide, tho, and iterator is ulong so for for_each_netdev_dump() it's safe to go to the next element.

[PATCH v2 5.10.y] net/ipv4: fix type mismatch in inet_ehash_locks_alloc() causing build failure

by Eliav Farber

Fix compilation warning: In file included from ./include/linux/kernel.h:15, from ./include/linux/list.h:9, from ./include/linux/module.h:12, from net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c:12: net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c: In function ‘inet_ehash_locks_alloc’: ./include/linux/minmax.h:20:35: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast 20 | (!!(sizeof((typeof(x) *)1 == (typeof(y) *)1))) | ^~ ./include/linux/minmax.h:26:18: note: in expansion of macro ‘__typecheck’ 26 | (__typecheck(x, y) && __no_side_effects(x, y)) | ^~~~~~~~~~~ ./include/linux/minmax.h:36:31: note: in expansion of macro ‘__safe_cmp’ 36 | __builtin_choose_expr(__safe_cmp(x, y), \ | ^~~~~~~~~~ ./include/linux/minmax.h:52:25: note: in expansion of macro ‘__careful_cmp’ 52 | #define max(x, y) __careful_cmp(x, y, >) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c:946:19: note: in expansion of macro ‘max’ 946 | nblocks = max(nblocks, num_online_nodes() * PAGE_SIZE / locksz); | ^~~ CC block/badblocks.o When warnings are treated as errors, this causes the build to fail. The issue is a type mismatch between the operands passed to the max() macro. Here, nblocks is an unsigned int, while the expression num_online_nodes() * PAGE_SIZE / locksz is promoted to unsigned long. This happens because: - num_online_nodes() returns int - PAGE_SIZE is typically defined as an unsigned long (depending on the architecture) - locksz is unsigned int The resulting arithmetic expression is promoted to unsigned long. Thus, the max() macro compares values of different types: unsigned int vs unsigned long. This issue was introduced in commit f8ece40786c9 ("tcp: bring back NUMA dispersion in inet_ehash_locks_alloc()") during the update from kernel v5.10.237 to v5.10.238. It does not exist in newer kernel branches (e.g., v5.15.185 and all 6.x branches), because they include commit d03eba99f5bf ("minmax: allow min()/max()/clamp() if the arguments have the same signedness.") Fix the issue by using max_t(unsigned int, ...) to explicitly cast both operands to the same type, avoiding the type mismatch and ensuring correctness.
