[PATCH] RDMA/bnxt_re: fix dma_free_coherent() pointer

by Thomas Fourier

The dma_alloc_coherent() allocates a dma-mapped buffer, pbl->pg_arr[i]. The dma_free_coherent() should pass the same buffer to dma_free_coherent() and not page-aligned.

[PATCH net v3] net: macb: Relocate mog_init_rings() callback from macb_mac_link_up() to macb_open()

by Xiaolei Wang

In the non-RT kernel, local_bh_disable() merely disables preemption, whereas it maps to an actual spin lock in the RT kernel. Consequently, when attempting to refill RX buffers via netdev_alloc_skb() in macb_mac_link_up(), a deadlock scenario arises as follows: WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 6.18.0-08691-g2061f18ad76e #39 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ kworker/0:0/8 is trying to acquire lock: ffff00080369bbe0 (&bp->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: macb_start_xmit+0x808/0xb7c but task is already holding lock: ffff000803698e58 (&queue->tx_ptr_lock){+...}-{3:3}, at: macb_start_xmit +0x148/0xb7c which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #3 (&queue->tx_ptr_lock){+...}-{3:3}: rt_spin_lock+0x50/0x1f0 macb_start_xmit+0x148/0xb7c dev_hard_start_xmit+0x94/0x284 sch_direct_xmit+0x8c/0x37c __dev_queue_xmit+0x708/0x1120 neigh_resolve_output+0x148/0x28c ip6_finish_output2+0x2c0/0xb2c __ip6_finish_output+0x114/0x308 ip6_output+0xc4/0x4a4 mld_sendpack+0x220/0x68c mld_ifc_work+0x2a8/0x4f4 process_one_work+0x20c/0x5f8 worker_thread+0x1b0/0x35c kthread+0x144/0x200 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 -> #2 (_xmit_ETHER#2){+...}-{3:3}: rt_spin_lock+0x50/0x1f0 sch_direct_xmit+0x11c/0x37c __dev_queue_xmit+0x708/0x1120 neigh_resolve_output+0x148/0x28c ip6_finish_output2+0x2c0/0xb2c __ip6_finish_output+0x114/0x308 ip6_output+0xc4/0x4a4 mld_sendpack+0x220/0x68c mld_ifc_work+0x2a8/0x4f4 process_one_work+0x20c/0x5f8 worker_thread+0x1b0/0x35c kthread+0x144/0x200 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 -> #1 ((softirq_ctrl.lock)){+.+.}-{3:3}: lock_release+0x250/0x348 __local_bh_enable_ip+0x7c/0x240 __netdev_alloc_skb+0x1b4/0x1d8 gem_rx_refill+0xdc/0x240 gem_init_rings+0xb4/0x108 macb_mac_link_up+0x9c/0x2b4 phylink_resolve+0x170/0x614 process_one_work+0x20c/0x5f8 worker_thread+0x1b0/0x35c kthread+0x144/0x200 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 -> #0 (&bp->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}: __lock_acquire+0x15a8/0x2084 lock_acquire+0x1cc/0x350 rt_spin_lock+0x50/0x1f0 macb_start_xmit+0x808/0xb7c dev_hard_start_xmit+0x94/0x284 sch_direct_xmit+0x8c/0x37c __dev_queue_xmit+0x708/0x1120 neigh_resolve_output+0x148/0x28c ip6_finish_output2+0x2c0/0xb2c __ip6_finish_output+0x114/0x308 ip6_output+0xc4/0x4a4 mld_sendpack+0x220/0x68c mld_ifc_work+0x2a8/0x4f4 process_one_work+0x20c/0x5f8 worker_thread+0x1b0/0x35c kthread+0x144/0x200 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 other info that might help us debug this: Chain exists of: &bp->lock --> _xmit_ETHER#2 --> &queue->tx_ptr_lock Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&queue->tx_ptr_lock); lock(_xmit_ETHER#2); lock(&queue->tx_ptr_lock); lock(&bp->lock); *** DEADLOCK *** Call trace: show_stack+0x18/0x24 (C) dump_stack_lvl+0xa0/0xf0 dump_stack+0x18/0x24 print_circular_bug+0x28c/0x370 check_noncircular+0x198/0x1ac __lock_acquire+0x15a8/0x2084 lock_acquire+0x1cc/0x350 rt_spin_lock+0x50/0x1f0 macb_start_xmit+0x808/0xb7c dev_hard_start_xmit+0x94/0x284 sch_direct_xmit+0x8c/0x37c __dev_queue_xmit+0x708/0x1120 neigh_resolve_output+0x148/0x28c ip6_finish_output2+0x2c0/0xb2c __ip6_finish_output+0x114/0x308 ip6_output+0xc4/0x4a4 mld_sendpack+0x220/0x68c mld_ifc_work+0x2a8/0x4f4 process_one_work+0x20c/0x5f8 worker_thread+0x1b0/0x35c kthread+0x144/0x200 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 Notably, invoking the mog_init_rings() callback upon link establishment is unnecessary. Instead, we can exclusively call mog_init_rings() within the ndo_open() callback. This adjustment resolves the deadlock issue. Furthermore, since MACB_CAPS_MACB_IS_EMAC cases do not use mog_init_rings() when opening the network interface via at91ether_open(), moving mog_init_rings() to macb_open() also eliminates the MACB_CAPS_MACB_IS_EMAC check.

This means, the PCI core assumes that only one bus will appear behind the Root Port since the Root Port is not hot plug capable. This works perfectly fine for PCIe endpoints connected to the Root Port, since they don't extend the bus. However, if a PCIe switch is connected, then there is a problem when the downstream busses starts showing up and the PCI core doesn't extend the subordinate bus number after initial scan during boot. The long term plan is to migrate this driver to the pwrctrl framework, once it adds proper support for powering up and enumerating PCIe switches.

[PATCH] fbdev: Use device_create_with_groups() to fix sysfs groups registration race

by Hans de Goede

The fbdev sysfs attributes are registered after sending the uevent for the device creation, leaving a race window where e.g. udev rules may not be able to access the sysfs attributes because the registration is not done yet. Fix this by switching to device_create_with_groups(). This also results in a nice cleanup. After switching to device_create_with_groups() all that is left of fb_init_device() is setting the drvdata and that can be passed to device_create[_with_groups]() too. After which fb_init_device() can be completely removed. Dropping fb_init_device() + fb_cleanup_device() in turn allows removing fb_info.class_flag as they were the only user of this field.

[PATCH] eisa/pci_eisa: Fix PCI device refcount leak on early init error

The for_each_pci_dev() loop takes a reference on each PCI device during iteration. When returning early on pci_eisa_init() failure, the reference on 'dev' is not released, causing a resource leak.

This series fixes exec/fork inheritance. See the detailed description of the issue below. This patch (of 2): Background ========== commit d7597f59d1d33 ("mm: add new api to enable ksm per process") introduced MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY for mm->flags, and allowed user to set it by prctl() so that the process's VMAs are forcibly scanned by ksmd. Subsequently, the 3c6f33b7273a ("mm/ksm: support fork/exec for prctl") supported inheriting the MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag when a task calls execve(). Finally, commit 3a9e567ca45fb ("mm/ksm: fix ksm exec support for prctl") fixed the issue that ksmd doesn't scan the mm_struct with MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY by adding the mm_slot to ksm_mm_head in __bprm_mm_init(). Problem ======= In some extreme scenarios, however, this inheritance of MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY during exec/fork can fail. For example, when the scanning frequency of ksmd is tuned extremely high, a process carrying MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY may still fail to pass it to the newly exec'd process. This happens because ksm_execve() is executed too early in the do_execve flow (prematurely adding the new mm_struct to the ksm_mm_slot list). As a result, before do_execve completes, ksmd may have already performed a scan and found that this new mm_struct has no VM_MERGEABLE VMAs, thus clearing its MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag. Consequently, when the new program executes, the flag MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY inheritance missed. Root reason =========== commit d7597f59d1d33 ("mm: add new api to enable ksm per process") clear the flag MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY when ksmd found no VM_MERGEABLE VMAs. Solution ======== Firstly, Don't clear MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY when ksmd found no VM_MERGEABLE VMAs, because perhaps their mm_struct has just been added to ksm_mm_slot list, and its process has not yet officially started running or has not yet performed mmap/brk to allocate anonymous VMAS. Secondly, recheck MMF_VM_MERGEABLE again if a process takes MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY, and create a mm_slot and join it into ksm_scan_list again.

[PATCH 5.15.y RESEND] KVM: arm64: sys_regs: disable -Wuninitialized-const-pointer warning

by Justin Stitt

A new warning in Clang 22 [1] complains that @clidr passed to get_clidr_el1() is an uninitialized const pointer. get_clidr_el1() doesn't really care since it casts away the const-ness anyways -- it is a false positive. | ../arch/arm64/kvm/sys_regs.c:2838:23: warning: variable 'clidr' is uninitialized when passed as a const pointer argument here [-Wuninitialized-const-pointer] | 2838 | get_clidr_el1(NULL, &clidr); /* Ugly... */ | | ^~~~~ This patch isn't needed for anything past 6.1 as this code section was reworked in Commit 7af0c2534f4c ("KVM: arm64: Normalize cache configuration"). Since there is no upstream equivalent, this patch just needs to be applied to 5.15. Disable this warning for sys_regs.o with an iron fist as it doesn't make sense to waste maintainer's time or potentially break builds by backporting large changelists from 6.2+.
