Using device_find_child() to lookup the proper device to destroy
causes an unbalance in device refcount, since device_find_child()
calls an implicit get_device() to increment the device's reference
count before returning the pointer. cxl_port_find_switch_decoder()
directly converts this pointer to a cxl_decoder and returns it without
releasing the reference properly. We should call put_device() to
decrement reference count.
As comment of device_find_child() says, 'NOTE: you will need to drop
the reference with put_device() after use'.
Found by code review.

Subject: [PATCH] ksmbd: fix a mount write count leak in
ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_locked()
If the call of ksmbd_vfs_lock_parent() fails, we drop the parent_path
references and return an error. We need to drop the write access we
just got on parent_path->mnt before we drop the mount reference - callers
assume that ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_locked() returns with mount write
access grabbed if and only if it has returned 0.

Subject: [PATCH] smb: server: make use of rdma_destroy_qp()
The qp is created by rdma_create_qp() as t->cm_id->qp
and t->qp is just a shortcut.
rdma_destroy_qp() also calls ib_destroy_qp(cm_id->qp) internally,
but it is protected by a mutex, clears the cm_id and also calls
trace_cm_qp_destroy().
This should make the tracing more useful as both
rdma_create_qp() and rdma_destroy_qp() are traces and it makes
the code look more sane as functions from the same layer are used
for the specific qp object.
trace-cmd stream -e rdma_cma:cm_qp_create -e rdma_cma:cm_qp_destroy
shows this now while doing a mount and unmount from a client:
<...>-80 [002] 378.514182: cm_qp_create: cm.id=1 src=172.31.9.167:5445 dst=172.31.9.166:37113 tos=0 pd.id=0 qp_type=RC send_wr=867 recv_wr=255 qp_num=1 rc=0

2.50.1
Starting with Rust 1.89.0 (expected 2025-08-07), the Rust compiler fails
to build the `rusttest` target due to undefined references such as:
kernel...-cgu.0:(.text....+0x116): undefined reference to
`rust_helper_kunit_get_current_test'
Moreover, tooling like `modpost` gets confused:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/gpu/drm/nova/nova.o
ERROR: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/gpu/nova-core/nova_core.o
The reason behind both issues is that the Rust compiler will now [1]
treat `#[used]` as `#[used(linker)]` instead of `#[used(compiler)]`
for our targets. This means that the retain section flag (`R`,
`SHF_GNU_RETAIN`) will be used and that they will be marked as `unique`
too, with different IDs. In turn, that means we end up with undefined
references that did not get discarded in `rusttest` and that multiple
`.modinfo` sections are generated, which confuse tooling like `modpost`
because they only expect one.
Thus start using `#[used(compiler)]` to keep the previous behavior
and to be explicit about what we want. Sadly, it is an unstable feature
(`used_with_arg`) [2] -- we will talk to upstream Rust about it. The good
news is that it has been available for a long time (Rust >= 1.60) [3].
The changes should also be fine for previous Rust versions, since they
behave the same way as before [4].
Alternatively, we could use `#[no_mangle]` or `#[export_name = ...]`
since those still behave like `#[used(compiler)]`, but of course it is
not really what we want to express, and it requires other changes to
avoid symbol conflicts.

Now relocate_new_kernel_size is a .long value, which means 32bit, so its
high 32bit is undefined. This causes memcpy((void *)reboot_code_buffer,
relocate_new_kernel, relocate_new_kernel_size) in machine_kexec_prepare()
access out of range memories in some cases, and then end up with an ADE
exception.
So make relocate_new_kernel_size be a .quad value, which means 64bit, to
avoid such errors.

Subject: [PATCH] kasan: remove kasan_find_vm_area() to prevent possible
deadlock
find_vm_area() couldn't be called in atomic_context. If find_vm_area() is
called to reports vm area information, kasan can trigger deadlock like:
CPU0 CPU1
vmalloc();
alloc_vmap_area();
spin_lock(&vn->busy.lock)
spin_lock_bh(&some_lock);
<interrupt occurs>
<in softirq>
spin_lock(&some_lock);
<access invalid address>
kasan_report();
print_report();
print_address_description();
kasan_find_vm_area();
find_vm_area();
spin_lock(&vn->busy.lock) // deadlock!
To prevent possible deadlock while kasan reports, remove kasan_find_vm_area().

Subject: [PATCH] kasan: remove kasan_find_vm_area() to prevent possible
deadlock
find_vm_area() couldn't be called in atomic_context. If find_vm_area() is
called to reports vm area information, kasan can trigger deadlock like:
CPU0 CPU1
vmalloc();
alloc_vmap_area();
spin_lock(&vn->busy.lock)
spin_lock_bh(&some_lock);
<interrupt occurs>
<in softirq>
spin_lock(&some_lock);
<access invalid address>
kasan_report();
print_report();
print_address_description();
kasan_find_vm_area();
find_vm_area();
spin_lock(&vn->busy.lock) // deadlock!
To prevent possible deadlock while kasan reports, remove kasan_find_vm_area().

Subject: [PATCH] x86/sev: Use TSC_FACTOR for Secure TSC frequency calculation
When using Secure TSC, the GUEST_TSC_FREQ MSR reports a frequency based on
the nominal P0 frequency, which deviates slightly (typically ~0.2%) from
the actual mean TSC frequency due to clocking parameters.
Over extended VM uptime, this discrepancy accumulates, causing clock skew
between the hypervisor and a SEV-SNP VM, leading to early timer interrupts as
perceived by the guest.
The guest kernel relies on the reported nominal frequency for TSC-based
timekeeping, while the actual frequency set during SNP_LAUNCH_START may
differ. This mismatch results in inaccurate time calculations, causing the
guest to perceive hrtimers as firing earlier than expected.
Utilize the TSC_FACTOR from the SEV firmware's secrets page (see "Secrets
Page Format" in the SNP Firmware ABI Specification) to calculate the mean
TSC frequency, ensuring accurate timekeeping and mitigating clock skew in
SEV-SNP VMs.
Use early_ioremap_encrypted() to map the secrets page as
ioremap_encrypted() uses kmalloc() which is not available during early TSC
initialization and causes a panic.

The iotlb_sync_map iommu ops allows drivers to perform necessary cache
flushes when new mappings are established. For the Intel iommu driver,
this callback specifically serves two purposes:
- To flush caches when a second-stage page table is attached to a device
whose iommu is operating in caching mode (CAP_REG.CM==1).
- To explicitly flush internal write buffers to ensure updates to memory-
resident remapping structures are visible to hardware (CAP_REG.RWBF==1).
However, in scenarios where neither caching mode nor the RWBF flag is
active, the cache_tag_flush_range_np() helper, which is called in the
iotlb_sync_map path, effectively becomes a no-op.
Despite being a no-op, cache_tag_flush_range_np() involves iterating
through all cache tags of the iommu's attached to the domain, protected
by a spinlock. This unnecessary execution path introduces overhead,
leading to a measurable I/O performance regression. On systems with NVMes
under the same bridge, performance was observed to drop from approximately
~6150 MiB/s down to ~4985 MiB/s.
Introduce a flag in the dmar_domain structure. This flag will only be set
when iotlb_sync_map is required (i.e., when CM or RWBF is set). The
cache_tag_flush_range_np() is called only for domains where this flag is
set.

The wx_rx_buffer structure contained two DMA address fields: 'dma' and
'page_dma'. However, only 'page_dma' was actually initialized and used
to program the Rx descriptor. But 'dma' was uninitialized and used in
some paths.
This could lead to undefined behavior, including DMA errors or
use-after-free, if the uninitialized 'dma' was used. Althrough such
error has not yet occurred, it is worth fixing in the code.

If 'enable' parameter of the 'mtier' DAMON sample module is set at boot
time via the kernel command line, memory allocation is tried before the
slab is initialized. As a result kernel NULL pointer dereference BUG can
happen. Fix it by checking the initialization status.

Subject: samples/damon/wsse: fix boot time enable handling
Date: Sun, 6 Jul 2025 12:32:02 -0700
Patch series "mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules".
From manual code review, I found below bugs in DAMON modules.
DAMON sample modules crash if those are enabled at boot time, via kernel
command line. A similar issue was found and fixed on DAMON non-sample
modules in the past, but we didn't check that for sample modules.
DAMON non-sample modules are not setting 'enabled' parameters accordingly
when real enabling is failed. Honggyu found and fixed[1] this type of
bugs in DAMON sample modules, and my inspection was motivated by the great
work. Kudos to Honggyu.
Finally, DAMON_RECLIAM is mistakenly losing scheme internal status due to
misuse of damon_commit_ctx(). DAMON_LRU_SORT has a similar misuse, but
fortunately it is not causing real status loss.
Fix the bugs. Since these are similar patterns of bugs that were found in
the past, it would be better to add tests or refactor the code, in future.
This patch (of 6):
If 'enable' parameter of the 'wsse' DAMON sample module is set at boot
time via the kernel command line, memory allocation is tried before the
slab is initialized. As a result kernel NULL pointer dereference BUG can
happen. Fix it by checking the initialization status.

Hello,
Could you kindly respond to me?
I am Elena Victoria fernanda from Bradford and I'd like to share something very important with you right now.
Provide your names to help me verify I m addressing the correct contact.
I would be pleased to receive your swift response.
Best wishes

In the max3420_set_clear_feature() function, the endpoint index `id` can have a value from 0 to 15.
However, the udc->ep array is initialized with a maximum of 4 endpoints in max3420_eps_init().
If host sends a request with a wIndex greater than 3, the access to `udc->ep[id]` will go out-of-bounds,
leading to memory corruption or a potential kernel crash.
This bug was found by code inspection and has not been tested on hardware.

Hi!
I bumped into a build regression when building Alpine Linux kernel 6.12.35 on x86_64:
In file included from ../arch/x86/tools/insn_decoder_test.c:13:
../tools/include/linux/kallsyms.h:21:10: fatal error: execinfo.h: No such file or directory
21 | #include <execinfo.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
The 6.12.34 kernel built just fine.
I bisected it to:

It looks like the linux/kallsyms.h was included to get KSYM_NAME_LEN.
Unfortunately it also introduced the include of execinfo.h, which does
not exist on musl libc.
This has previously been reported to and tried fixed:
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/DB0OSTC6N4TL.2NK75K2CWE9JV@pwned.life/T/#t
Would it be an idea to revert commit b8abcba6e4ae til we have a proper

Starting with Rust 1.89.0 (expected 2025-08-07), the Rust compiler
may warn:

= note: `-D dead-code` implied by `-D warnings`
= help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(dead_code)]`
= note: this error originates in the macro `$crate::__pin_data`
which comes from the expansion of the attribute macro
`pin_data` (in Nightly builds, run with
-Z macro-backtrace for more info)
Thus `allow` it to clean it up.
This does not happen in mainline nor 6.15.y, because there the macro was
moved out of the `kernel` crate, and `dead_code` warnings are not
emitted if the macro is foreign to the crate. Thus this patch is
directly sent to stable and intended for 6.12.y only.
Similarly, it is not needed in previous LTSs, because there the Rust
version is pinned.

Greg, Sasha: please note that an equivalent patch is _not_ in mainline.
We could put these `allow`s in mainline (they wouldn't hurt), but it
isn't a good idea to add things in mainline for the only reason of
backporting them, thus I am sending this directly to stable.
The patch is pretty safe -- there is no actual code change.
