[PATCH 6.6] thermal/of: Fix mask mismatch when no trips subnode

by Hsin-Te Yuan

After commit 725f31f300e3 ("thermal/of: support thermal zones w/o trips subnode") was backported on 6.6 stable branch as commit d3304dbc2d5f ("thermal/of: support thermal zones w/o trips subnode"), thermal zones w/o trips subnode still fail to register since `mask` argument is not set correctly. When number of trips subnode is 0, `mask` must be 0 to pass the check in `thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips()`. Set `mask` to 0 when there's no trips subnode.

[PATCH v3 11/17] ext4: fix largest free orders lists corruption on mb_optimize_scan switch

by Baokun Li

The grp->bb_largest_free_order is updated regardless of whether mb_optimize_scan is enabled. This can lead to inconsistencies between grp->bb_largest_free_order and the actual s_mb_largest_free_orders list index when mb_optimize_scan is repeatedly enabled and disabled via remount. For example, if mb_optimize_scan is initially enabled, largest free order is 3, and the group is in s_mb_largest_free_orders[3]. Then, mb_optimize_scan is disabled via remount, block allocations occur, updating largest free order to 2. Finally, mb_optimize_scan is re-enabled via remount, more block allocations update largest free order to 1. At this point, the group would be removed from s_mb_largest_free_orders[3] under the protection of s_mb_largest_free_orders_locks[2]. This lock mismatch can lead to list corruption. To fix this, whenever grp->bb_largest_free_order changes, we now always attempt to remove the group from its old order list. However, we only insert the group into the new order list if `mb_optimize_scan` is enabled. This approach helps prevent lock inconsistencies and ensures the data in the order lists remains reliable.

[PATCH v3 10/17] ext4: fix zombie groups in average fragment size lists

by Baokun Li

Groups with no free blocks shouldn't be in any average fragment size list. However, when all blocks in a group are allocated(i.e., bb_fragments or bb_free is 0), we currently skip updating the average fragment size, which means the group isn't removed from its previous s_mb_avg_fragment_size[old] list. This created "zombie" groups that were always skipped during traversal as they couldn't satisfy any block allocation requests, negatively impacting traversal efficiency. Therefore, when a group becomes completely full, bb_avg_fragment_size_order is now set to -1. If the old order was not -1, a removal operation is performed; if the new order is not -1, an insertion is performed.

FAILED: patch "[PATCH] x86/its: explicitly manage permissions for ITS pages" failed to apply to 5.10-stable tree

by gregkh＠linuxfoundation.org

The patch below does not apply to the 5.10-stable tree. If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit id to <stable(a)vger.kernel.org>. To reproduce the conflict and resubmit, you may use the following commands: git fetch https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/ linux-5.10.y git checkout FETCH_HEAD git cherry-pick -x a82b26451de126a5ae130361081986bc459afe9b # <resolve conflicts, build, test, etc.> git commit -s git send-email --to '<stable(a)vger.kernel.org>' --in-reply-to '2025071433-smugly-husked-3295@gregkh' --subject-prefix 'PATCH 5.10.y' HEAD^..

Add tracking for pages allocated for ITS when patching the core kernel and make sure the permissions for ITS pages are explicitly managed for both kernel and module allocations.
