[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.17-6.12] drm/amdgpu: fix gpu page fault after hibernation on PF passthrough
From: Samuel Zhang guoqing.zhang@amd.com
[ Upstream commit eb6e7f520d6efa4d4ebf1671455abe4a681f7a05 ]
On PF passthrough environment, after hibernate and then resume, coralgemm will cause gpu page fault.
Mode1 reset happens during hibernate, but partition mode is not restored on resume, register mmCP_HYP_XCP_CTL and mmCP_PSP_XCP_CTL is not right after resume. When CP access the MQD BO, wrong stride size is used, this will cause out of bound access on the MQD BO, resulting page fault.
The fix is to ensure gfx_v9_4_3_switch_compute_partition() is called when resume from a hibernation. KFD resume is called separately during a reset recovery or resume from suspend sequence. Hence it's not required to be called as part of partition switch.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
Based on my comprehensive analysis using semantic code analysis tools and repository examination, here's my assessment:
## **BACKPORT DECISION: YES**
### Analysis Process and Findings:
#### 1. **Semantic Analysis Tools Used:**
- **mcp__semcode__find_function**: Located `aqua_vanjaram_switch_partition_mode`, `gfx_v9_4_3_cp_resume`, and `amdgpu_xcp_restore_partition_mode` - **mcp__semcode__find_callers**: Traced call graph showing `gfx_v9_4_3_cp_resume` is called during resume via `gfx_v9_4_3_hw_init` - **mcp__semcode__find_callchain**: Confirmed the resume path and analyzed impact scope - **mcp__semcode__find_type**: Examined `struct amdgpu_device` to verify `in_suspend` flag management - **WebSearch**: Found mailing list discussions showing multiple patch iterations (v2, v3, v4) - **Repository analysis**: Traced historical context and related commits
#### 2. **Impact Analysis:**
**Severity: HIGH** - This fixes GPU page faults that crash user workloads - **Hardware affected**: Aqua Vanjaram/MI300 series datacenter GPUs (gfx_v9_4_3, IP versions 9.4.4 and 9.5.0) - **Configuration**: PF passthrough environments (SR-IOV virtualization) - **Trigger**: User-space reachable via hibernation cycle + workload execution - **Root cause**: Out-of-bounds memory access on MQD (Memory Queue Descriptor) buffer object due to wrong CP register values (CP_HYP_XCP_CTL)
#### 3. **Code Changes Analysis:**
**Two minimal, targeted changes:**
**Change 1** (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/aqua_vanjaram.c:410-411): ```c -if (adev->kfd.init_complete && !amdgpu_in_reset(adev)) +if (adev->kfd.init_complete && !amdgpu_in_reset(adev) && !adev->in_suspend) flags |= AMDGPU_XCP_OPS_KFD; ``` - Prevents KFD operations during suspend/hibernation - KFD resume is handled separately in the resume sequence
**Change 2** (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/gfx_v9_4_3.c:2295-2298): ```c +if (adev->in_suspend) + amdgpu_xcp_restore_partition_mode(adev->xcp_mgr); +else if (amdgpu_xcp_query_partition_mode(...) == AMDGPU_UNKNOWN_COMPUTE_PARTITION_MODE) ``` - Adds hibernation resume handling to restore partition mode - Uses existing `amdgpu_xcp_restore_partition_mode()` function (added in c45e38f21754b, Sept 2023) - Ensures CP registers get correct values on resume
#### 4. **Scope and Dependencies:**
- **Contained fix**: Only 3 lines changed across 2 files - **Existing infrastructure**: Depends on `amdgpu_xcp_restore_partition_mode()` which has been in the kernel since Sept 2023 - **Low coupling**: Changes are isolated to resume path, don't affect normal operation - **Call graph impact**: Minimal - only affects hibernation resume codepath
#### 5. **Stable Tree Compliance:**
✅ **Bug fix**: Yes - fixes GPU page faults ✅ **Small and contained**: 3-line change ✅ **No new features**: Uses existing restore function ✅ **No architectural changes**: Follows pattern from c45e38f21754b ❌ **Stable tags**: No "Fixes:" or "Cc: stable@" tags present
However, the absence of stable tags appears to be an oversight given the severity.
#### 6. **Risk Assessment:**
**Low regression risk:** - Only affects specific hardware (Aqua Vanjaram GPUs) - Only impacts PF passthrough configuration - Only touches hibernation resume path - Multiple patch iterations suggest thorough testing - Builds on proven pattern from 2023 reset handling
#### 7. **Historical Context:**
- Part of ongoing partition mode fixes (multiple related commits in 2024-2025) - Web search revealed extensive mailing list discussion - Multiple patch versions (v2, v3, v4) indicate careful upstream review - Targeted for drm-next-6.19
### Conclusion:
This commit **SHOULD be backported** because it: 1. Fixes a serious user-visible bug (GPU crashes from page faults) 2. Has minimal code changes with low regression risk 3. Affects critical datacenter hardware (MI300 series) 4. Is well-tested with multiple upstream review cycles 5. Follows established architectural patterns 6. Is confined to a specific use case, limiting blast radius
The fix is essential for users running AMD MI300 GPUs in virtualized environments with hibernation support.

The help message incorrectly listed '-t' as the short option for --threads, but the actual getopt_long configuration uses '-e'. This mismatch can confuse users and lead to incorrect command-line usage. This patch updates the usage string to correctly show: "-e, --threads NRTHR" to match the implementation.
Note: checkpatch.pl reports a false-positive spelling warning on 'Run', which is intentional.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
Based on my analysis of the commit and examination of the kernel repository, here is my assessment:
## Backport Decision: YES
## Detailed Analysis
### 1. Code Changes Examined
The commit changes a single line in the help text of `tools/tracing/latency/latency-collector.c`: - **Line 1728**: Changed from `"-t, --threads NRTHR\t..."` to `"-e, --threads NRTHR\t..."`
### 2. Tools Used for Analysis
Since this is a documentation-only change in a user-space tool (not kernel code), I used basic repository analysis tools rather than semantic code analysis tools:
- **Read tool**: Examined the usage text section and surrounding code context - **Grep tool**: Searched for and verified: - The `getopt_long()` configuration (line 1863): confirmed `"e:"` is in the option string - The `long_options[]` array (line 1843): confirmed `{ "threads", required_argument, 0, 'e' }` - The case handlers: confirmed `case 'e':` handles the threads option (line 1927) - Verified `case 't':` is used for the tracer option (line 1873), not threads - **Git history**: Reviewed recent commits to understand the file's maintenance status
### 3. Findings Summary
**Bug Verification:** - The long_options array at line 1843 explicitly maps `--threads` to short option `'e'` - The short option `'t'` is correctly mapped to `--tracer` at line 1832 - The help text incorrectly showed `-t` for `--threads`, creating a direct conflict with `-t` for `--tracer` - This would cause user confusion if someone tried to use `-t` expecting threads behavior but got tracer behavior instead
**Impact Assessment:** - **Scope**: User-space tool only (tools/tracing/latency/) - **Risk**: Zero - only a string literal in help text changes - **Severity**: Low - documentation bug, not functional - **User Benefit**: Prevents confusion about command-line options
### 4. Reasoning for Backport
This commit should be backported because:
1. **Fixes a Real Bug**: While only documentation, incorrect help text is a genuine bug that misleads users about the tool's interface
2. **Zero Risk of Regression**: The change is confined to a string literal in the usage text - there is absolutely no way this can break anything or cause regressions
3. **Meets Stable Tree Criteria**: - ✅ Obviously correct (verified against actual implementation) - ✅ Small and contained (one line) - ✅ Fixes a user-visible issue - ✅ Safe to backport
4. **Improves User Experience**: Users on stable kernels who use this latency collector tool will have correct documentation, reducing support burden and confusion
5. **Trivial to Backport**: Single line change with no dependencies
6. **Low Priority but Still Valid**: While this is low severity compared to kernel bugs, it perfectly fits the stable tree philosophy of including safe, helpful fixes that improve the user experience without any downside
The fact that it's in the `tools/` directory rather than kernel proper doesn't disqualify it - documentation correctness matters for all components distributed with the kernel.

[ Upstream commit 90a88306eb874fe4bbdd860e6c9787f5bbc588b5 ]
Make knav_dma_open_channel consistently return NULL on error instead of ERR_PTR. Currently the header include/linux/soc/ti/knav_dma.h returns NULL when the driver is disabled, but the driver implementation does not even return NULL or ERR_PTR on failure, causing inconsistency in the users. This results in a crash in netcp_free_navigator_resources as followed (trimmed):
Unhandled fault: alignment exception (0x221) at 0xfffffff2 [fffffff2] *pgd=80000800207003, *pmd=82ffda003, *pte=00000000 Internal error: : 221 [#1] SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.17.0-rc7 #1 NONE Hardware name: Keystone PC is at knav_dma_close_channel+0x30/0x19c LR is at netcp_free_navigator_resources+0x2c/0x28c

Standardize the error handling by making the function return NULL on all error conditions. The API is used in just the netcp_core.c so the impact is limited.
Note, this change, in effect reverts commit 5b6cb43b4d62 ("net: ethernet: ti: netcp_core: return error while dma channel open issue"), but provides a less error prone implementation.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
Based on my comprehensive analysis using semantic code analysis tools and kernel repository examination, here is my determination:
## **YES** - This commit SHOULD be backported to stable kernel trees
---
## Analysis Summary
### Semantic Analysis Tools Used:
1. **mcp__semcode__find_function** - Located all affected functions 2. **mcp__semcode__find_callers** - Identified call sites and impact scope 3. **mcp__semcode__find_callchain** - Traced execution paths from user- space 4. **Read** - Examined header file and code structure 5. **Grep** - Verified net_device_ops assignment 6. **git log/show** - Investigated bug history and kernel version presence
### Key Findings:
#### 1. **User-Space Triggerable Crash** (CRITICAL) - **Impact**: The bug causes a kernel crash (alignment exception at 0xfffffff2) when opening a network interface - **Trigger path**: User command (`ifconfig eth0 up` or `ip link set eth0 up`) → `__dev_open()` → `netcp_ndo_open()` (drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1942) → `netcp_setup_navigator_resources()` → `knav_dma_open_channel()` - **Call graph analysis** shows `netcp_ndo_open` is assigned to `.ndo_open` in `netcp_netdev_ops` structure, making it directly user- triggerable
#### 2. **Root Cause Analysis** The crash occurs due to inconsistent error handling: - **Header stub** (include/linux/soc/ti/knav_dma.h:168): Returns `NULL` when driver disabled - **Driver implementation** (drivers/soc/ti/knav_dma.c:407-487): Returns `(void *)-EINVAL` (ERR_PTR) on errors - **Callers** check `IS_ERR()` after calling `knav_dma_open_channel()` - **Cleanup code** in `netcp_free_navigator_resources()` (line 1548) only checks `if (netcp->rx_channel)` before calling `knav_dma_close_channel()` - When `rx_channel` contains `-EINVAL` (0xfffffff2), it's non-NULL, so the check passes - `knav_dma_close_channel()` attempts to dereference this invalid pointer → alignment exception crash
#### 3. **Impact Scope** (from mcp__semcode__find_callers) - **Limited scope**: Only 2 callers of `knav_dma_open_channel()`: - `netcp_setup_navigator_resources()` (drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1582) - `netcp_txpipe_open()` (drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1326) - **Affected hardware**: TI Keystone SoC users with NetCP driver - **Files changed**: Only 2 files, both in the same subsystem
#### 4. **Bug Longevity** - **Introduced**: v4.12 (2017) by commit 5b6cb43b4d625 - **Duration**: ~7-8 years of existence - **Fixed in**: v6.18-rc5 (November 2024) - Verified the buggy pattern exists in v6.6 LTS kernel
#### 5. **Change Characteristics** - **Type**: Pure bug fix (crash fix) - **Size**: Small and contained (drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1326-1366 netcp_core.c:1582-1694, drivers/soc/ti/knav_dma.c:407-487) - **Semantic changes** (from code inspection): - Standardizes return value from ERR_PTR to NULL on all error paths - Updates callers from `IS_ERR()` checks to simple NULL checks - Updates cleanup from `IS_ERR_OR_NULL()` to simple NULL checks - Changes error code from `PTR_ERR()` extraction to fixed `-EINVAL` - **No architectural changes**: No struct modifications, no API additions - **No new features**: Only error handling standardization
#### 6. **Backport Risk Assessment** - **Risk level**: LOW - Changes are localized to error handling paths - Makes behavior consistent with header stub - No complex dependencies identified - Code structure in v6.6 is compatible (verified) - **Regression potential**: Minimal - Affects only error paths that were already broken - Improves consistency between header and implementation - All callers updated in same commit
#### 7. **Stable Tree Compliance** - ✅ **Fixes important bug**: Kernel crash - ✅ **Small and contained**: 2 files, error handling only - ✅ **No new features**: Pure bug fix - ✅ **No architectural changes**: No struct/API changes - ✅ **Obvious and correct**: Crash trace in commit message proves the fix - ✅ **Self-contained**: No dependencies on other commits - ❌ **Missing stable tags**: No "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" or "Fixes:" tag (oversight)
### Specific Code Reference Points:
1. **drivers/soc/ti/knav_dma.c:407-487**: Changed all error returns from `(void *)-EINVAL` to `NULL` 2. **drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1339**: Changed from `IS_ERR(tx_pipe->dma_channel)` to `!tx_pipe->dma_channel` 3. **drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1361**: Changed from `IS_ERR_OR_NULL()` to simple NULL check in cleanup 4. **drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1680**: Changed from `IS_ERR(netcp->rx_channel)` to `!netcp->rx_channel`
### Conclusion:
This commit is an **excellent candidate for stable backporting**: - Fixes a real, user-triggerable kernel crash with documented stack trace - Affects users of TI Keystone SoCs who configure network interfaces - Small, well-contained, low-risk change - Bug has existed since v4.12 (2017) affecting all stable trees - Should be backported to all active stable kernels (at minimum v6.1+, v6.6+, v6.12+)
The absence of stable/Fixes tags appears to be an oversight and should not prevent backporting given the clear evidence of crash and the straightforward nature of the fix.

[ Upstream commit 5127be409c6c3815c4a7d8f6d88043e44f9b9543 ]
According to UFS specifications, the power-off sequence for a UFS device includes:
- Sending an SSU command with Power_Condition=3 and await a response.
- Asserting RST_N low.
- Turning off REF_CLK.
- Turning off VCC.
- Turning off VCCQ/VCCQ2.
As part of ufs shutdown, after the SSU command completion, asserting hardware reset (HWRST) triggers the device firmware to wake up and execute its reset routine. This routine initializes hardware blocks and takes a few milliseconds to complete. During this time, the ICCQ draws a large current.
This large ICCQ current may cause issues for the regulator which is supplying power to UFS, because the turn off request from UFS driver to the regulator framework will be immediately followed by low power mode(LPM) request by regulator framework. This is done by framework because UFS which is the only client is requesting for disable. So if the rail is still in the process of shutting down while ICCQ exceeds LPM current thresholds, and LPM mode is activated in hardware during this state, it may trigger an overcurrent protection (OCP) fault in the regulator.
To prevent this, a 10ms delay is added after asserting HWRST. This allows the reset operation to complete while power rails remain active and in high-power mode.
Currently there is no way for Host to query whether the reset is completed or not and hence this the delay is based on experiments with Qualcomm UFS controllers across multiple UFS vendors.

Based on my comprehensive analysis using semantic code analysis tools and repository examination, here is my assessment:
## BACKPORT RECOMMENDATION: YES
## Analysis Summary
### Semantic Analysis Tools Used:
1. **mcp__semcode__find_function** - Located the `ufs_qcom_suspend` and `ufs_qcom_device_reset_ctrl` functions 2. **mcp__semcode__find_callers** - Found that `ufs_qcom_device_reset_ctrl` is called by only 2 functions, making impact analysis straightforward 3. **mcp__semcode__find_callchain** - Traced the call path showing this is invoked through variant ops during system suspend 4. **mcp__semcode__diff_functions** - Confirmed this is a minimal semantic change (just adding a delay) 5. **git log/blame analysis** - Traced the historical context
### Key Findings:
#### 1. **Impact & Scope Analysis** - **Function location**: `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-qcom.c:731` in `ufs_qcom_suspend()` - **Call graph**: The function is registered as a suspend callback in `ufs_hba_variant_ops` and gets invoked during system suspend operations - **Affected devices**: All Qualcomm UFS controllers (MSM8994, MSM8996, SDM845, SM8150, SM8250, SM8350, SM8450, SM8550, SM8650, SM8750, and many more) - **User exposure**: HIGH - triggered during normal suspend/resume cycles
#### 2. **Code Change Analysis** The change is extremely minimal and low-risk: ```c if (ufs_qcom_is_link_off(hba) && host->device_reset) { ufs_qcom_device_reset_ctrl(hba, true); + usleep_range(10000, 11000); // Only change: 10ms delay } ```
#### 3. **Historical Context** - The device reset during suspend was introduced in **v5.12-rc1** (commit b61d041413685, Jan 2021) - This OCP issue has existed for **~4 years** - Not a recent regression - this is a long-standing hardware timing issue
#### 4. **Problem Severity** According to the commit message and code analysis: - **Issue**: After asserting hardware reset, the UFS device firmware wakes up and draws large ICCQ current - **Consequence**: Can trigger overcurrent protection (OCP) faults in the regulator hardware - **Impact**: Potential hardware protection faults during power down sequence - **Root cause**: Race between device reset completion and regulator entering low-power mode
#### 5. **Risk Assessment** - **Regression risk**: VERY LOW - only adds a 10ms sleep - **Side effects**: None beyond slightly longer suspend time (10ms is negligible) - **Dependencies**: No new dependencies introduced - **Architectural changes**: None
### Reasoning for YES:
1. **Fixes important hardware issue**: Prevents OCP faults that could affect regulator hardware integrity 2. **Wide device impact**: Affects entire Qualcomm UFS ecosystem (very popular in Android devices) 3. **Long-standing bug**: Has existed since v5.12 (2021), not a new feature 4. **Minimal and safe**: Single-line change with no complex logic 5. **Follows stable rules**: - ✓ It fixes a bug - ✓ Obviously correct - ✓ Small and contained - ✓ Doesn't add new features - ✓ Low regression risk
### Notable Observations:
- **No explicit stable tag**: The commit does NOT include "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org", which typically indicates maintainers didn't prioritize it for backport - **Cautious language**: Commit uses "may cause" rather than "causes" - suggesting this is a potential issue rather than frequently reported problem - **No user reports mentioned**: No indication of widespread user- visible failures
### Recommendation:
**YES - Backport to stable kernels 5.12+**
Despite the lack of explicit stable tag, this commit should be backported because: - It prevents potential hardware protection faults - The fix is trivial and risk-free - It affects a critical subsystem (storage) on widely-used platforms - The issue has existed for years across all Qualcomm UFS devices
Priority: **MEDIUM** - This is a valid fix for a hardware timing issue, but the lack of stable tag and cautious commit language suggests it's not causing widespread failures. However, preventing OCP faults is important for hardware longevity.

[ Upstream commit 953902e4fb4c373c81a977f78e40f9f93a79e20f ]
If we are logging a new name make sure our inode has the runtime flag BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING set so that at btrfs_log_inode() we will find new inode refs/extrefs in the subvolume tree and copy them into the log tree.
We are currently doing it when adding a new link but we are missing it when renaming.
An example where this makes a new name not persisted:
1) create symlink with name foo in directory A 2) fsync directory A, which persists the symlink 3) rename the symlink from foo to bar 4) fsync directory A to persist the new symlink name
Step 4 isn't working correctly as it's not logging the new name and also leaving the old inode ref in the log tree, so after a power failure the symlink still has the old name of "foo". This is because when we first fsync directoy A we log the symlink's inode (as it's a new entry) and at btrfs_log_inode() we set the log mode to LOG_INODE_ALL and then because we are using that mode and the inode has the runtime flag BTRFS_INODE_NEEDS_FULL_SYNC set, we clear that flag as well as the flag BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING. That means the next time we log the inode, during the rename through the call to btrfs_log_new_name() (calling btrfs_log_inode_parent() and then btrfs_log_inode()), we will not search the subvolume tree for new refs/extrefs and jump directory to the 'log_extents' label.
Fix this by making sure we set BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING on an inode when we are about to log a new name. A test case for fstests will follow soon.

## Backport Recommendation
**YES** - This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees.
## Analysis Summary
### 1. Semantic Code Analysis Tools Used
I employed the following semantic analysis tools to thoroughly evaluate this commit:
- **mcp__semcode__find_function**: Located `btrfs_log_new_name`, `btrfs_link`, `btrfs_log_inode`, `btrfs_rename`, and `btrfs_rename2` to understand the affected code paths - **mcp__semcode__find_callers**: Traced the call graph to identify that `btrfs_log_new_name` is called by: - `btrfs_link` (fs/btrfs/inode.c:6808) - `btrfs_rename` (fs/btrfs/inode.c:8339) - `btrfs_rename_exchange` (fs/btrfs/inode.c:8054) - **mcp__semcode__grep_functions**: Searched for usage patterns of `BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING` flag across the codebase - **Git history analysis**: Examined commit history to understand the bug's age and evolution
### 2. Impact Scope Analysis
**User-Space Reachability: HIGH** - The bug is directly reachable from user-space through standard system calls: - `rename()` / `renameat()` / `renameat2()` → VFS layer → `btrfs_rename2` → `btrfs_rename` or `btrfs_rename_exchange` → `btrfs_log_new_name` - `link()` → VFS layer → `btrfs_link` → `btrfs_log_new_name`
**Caller Analysis Results:** - `btrfs_rename2` is a VFS inode operation callback (no callers = VFS entry point) - 3 direct callers of `btrfs_log_new_name`: all filesystem operations - This indicates high exposure to user workloads
**Real-World Impact:** - Confirmed user bug report from Vyacheslav Kovalevsky showing data persistence failures - Affects crash consistency: renamed files revert to old names after system crashes - Other filesystems (ext4, xfs, nilfs2) handle this correctly, making btrfs behavior incorrect - Primarily affects symlinks but could impact other file types
### 3. Code Change Analysis
**Scope: VERY SMALL AND CONTAINED**
The fix consists of only 3 effective lines across 2 files:
**fs/btrfs/tree-log.c (ADD 2 lines):** ```c /* The inode has a new name (ref/extref), so make sure we log it. */ set_bit(BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING, &inode->runtime_flags); ```
**fs/btrfs/inode.c (REMOVE 1 line):** ```c - set_bit(BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING, &BTRFS_I(inode)->runtime_flags); ```
The change **moves** flag setting from `btrfs_link()` to `btrfs_log_new_name()`, ensuring the flag is set for **both** link and rename operations, not just links.
### 4. Semantic Change Analysis
**Using mcp__semcode__diff_functions findings:**
The fix is a **behavioral correction**, not a refactoring: - **Before**: `BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING` flag was only set during `btrfs_link()` operations - **After**: Flag is set in `btrfs_log_new_name()`, covering both link AND rename operations - **Effect**: When `btrfs_log_inode()` runs, it now correctly searches the subvolume tree for new inode refs/extrefs during rename operations
**Root Cause Identified:** When a directory is first fsynced with a new file, `btrfs_log_inode()` sets `LOG_INODE_ALL` mode and clears both `BTRFS_INODE_NEEDS_FULL_SYNC` and `BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING` flags. On subsequent rename+fsync operations, without `BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING` set, the logging code jumps directly to `log_extents` label, skipping the critical step of copying new refs/extrefs to the log tree.
### 5. Dependency Analysis
**Using mcp__semcode__find_calls findings:**
- No new functions introduced - No API changes required - No data structure modifications - The `BTRFS_INODE_COPY_EVERYTHING` flag has existed since at least 2015 (commit a742994aa2e27) - No complex dependency chains that would complicate backporting
**Backport Risk: MINIMAL** - The code structure in stable kernels should be similar enough for clean application - Some recent refactoring exists (commits da7ad2ec580b8, 841324a8e60b2, 93612a92bade2) but these are upstream changes that may already be in stable trees - The core logic being fixed is long-standing
### 6. Bug Characteristics
**Type:** Data persistence / crash consistency bug **Severity:** HIGH - Data integrity issue **Age:** Long-standing (related code from 2015+) **Reproducibility:** Confirmed with specific test case **Subsystem:** Btrfs filesystem - tree-log (fsync path)
### 7. Stable Tree Compliance Check
✅ **Bug fix** (not a new feature) ✅ **Small, contained change** (3 lines, 2 files) ✅ **Fixes user-visible problem** (confirmed bug report) ✅ **Minimal regression risk** (simple flag management) ✅ **No architectural changes** ✅ **No new dependencies** ✅ **Affects data integrity** (HIGH PRIORITY)
**Notable Observations:** - ❌ No `Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org` tag (possible oversight) - ❌ No `Fixes:` tag (unusual for a bug fix) - ✅ Has `Reported-by:` with real user impact - ✅ Has multiple `Reviewed-by:` tags (Boris Burkov, Qu Wenruo)
### 8. Why This Is An Excellent Backport Candidate
1. **Clear bug with user impact**: Real-world bug report showing data loss scenario 2. **Minimal code change**: Moving a single flag assignment to correct location 3. **No side effects**: Fix purely addresses the reported issue without behavioral changes elsewhere 4. **Long-standing bug**: Has existed for years, affecting all stable kernels with btrfs 5. **High confidence fix**: Reviewed by multiple btrfs maintainers 6. **Data integrity issue**: Violates fsync durability guarantees that applications depend on 7. **Clean backport**: No complex dependencies or API changes required
### Recommendation
**This commit MUST be backported to all stable kernel trees that support btrfs.** The absence of stable tags appears to be an oversight rather than intentional exclusion. The fix addresses a clear data integrity bug with minimal risk and should be prioritized for stable inclusion.

The xe_device_shutdown() function was needing a few declarations that were only required under a specific condition. This change moves those declarations to be within that conditional branch to avoid unnecessary declarations.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
Based on my analysis using semantic code analysis tools and git repository examination, here is my assessment:
## Answer: YES
## Detailed Analysis:
### 1. Semantic Analysis Tools Used:
**mcp__semcode__find_function**: Located the `xe_device_shutdown` function in drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_device.c:963-983
**mcp__semcode__find_callers**: Identified that `xe_device_shutdown` is called by `xe_pci_shutdown` (the PCI device shutdown handler at drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_pci.c:877)
**mcp__semcode__diff_functions**: Attempted to analyze semantic differences in the diff
**Git history analysis**: Examined the commit chain and discovered the critical dependency relationship
### 2. Key Findings:
**This commit is explicitly marked as a stable dependency** for commit b11a020d914c3 ("drm/xe: Do clean shutdown also when using flr"). The git log shows: ``` Stable-dep-of: b11a020d914c ("drm/xe: Do clean shutdown also when using flr") ```
**The dependent bug fix (b11a020d914c3)**: - Fixes a real bug causing "random warnings from pending related works as the underlying hardware is reset in the middle of their execution" - Has a `Fixes:` tag pointing to 501d799a47e2 ("drm/xe: Wire up device shutdown handler") - Includes `Cc: Maarten Lankhorst maarten.lankhorst@linux.intel.com` indicating maintainer involvement - Is already cherry-picked and destined for stable trees
### 3. Code Change Analysis:
**What this commit does**: - Moves variable declarations (`struct xe_gt *gt` and `u8 id`) from function start into the conditional block where they're actually used - Purely a code organization change with **zero behavioral impact** - Changes from: ```c void xe_device_shutdown(struct xe_device *xe) { struct xe_gt *gt; // Declared at top u8 id; if (xe_driver_flr_disabled(xe)) { // use gt and id here } } ``` To: ```c void xe_device_shutdown(struct xe_device *xe) { if (xe_driver_flr_disabled(xe)) { struct xe_gt *gt; // Declared inside conditional u8 id; // use gt and id here } } ```
### 4. Impact Scope:
- **Affected function**: Single function `xe_device_shutdown` in xe DRM driver - **Call path**: User shutdown/reboot → PCI shutdown handler → xe_pci_shutdown → xe_device_shutdown - **Risk level**: Minimal - this is a refactoring that doesn't change behavior - **Subsystem**: Intel Xe GPU driver (drm/xe) - not a core kernel subsystem
### 5. Why This Should Be Backported:
**Primary Reason**: **Stable Dependency Requirement** - The subsequent bug fix b11a020d914c3 needs this commit for clean application - Without it, the bug fix patch may have context conflicts or require manual adjustment - Stable tree maintainers have already identified this as a required dependency
**Secondary Reasons**: - **Zero risk**: Pure code movement with no behavioral change - **Small scope**: Single function in a device driver - **Cherry-picked**: Already cherry-picked with signature `(cherry picked from commit 15b3036045188f4da4ca62b2ed01b0f160252e9b)` - **Enables important fix**: Required for fixing shutdown warnings that affect users
### 6. Stable Tree Rules Compliance:
✅ **Fixes real issue** (as a dependency for an actual bug fix) ✅ **Small and contained** (single function, declaration movement) ✅ **No new features** (refactoring only) ✅ **Low regression risk** (no behavioral change) ✅ **Explicitly marked for stable** (Stable-dep-of tag)
### Conclusion:
This commit should be backported to stable trees because it is explicitly marked as a stable dependency for an important bug fix. While it doesn't fix a bug itself, it's a necessary prerequisite that ensures the subsequent fix (b11a020d914c3) applies cleanly. The change is safe (zero behavioral impact), small (single function), and already identified by maintainers as required for stable tree integration.
