x86/64: 6.18: enable recent MITIGATION options
These mitigations are low-overhead, upstream-supported hardening options
that only activate on CPUs affected by their respective vulnerabilities.
Enabling them provides consistent, defense-in-depth coverage across Intel
and AMD systems without impacting unaffected hardware.
Detailed list:
- CONFIG_MITIGATION_SRSO to guard against known a vulnerability found on
AMD processors (Zen generations 1-4) for sure, maybe others. This is
tracked under CVE-2023-20569.
- CONFIG_MITIGATION_ITS to guard against a bug in BPU on some Intel CPUs
that may allow Spectre V2 style attacks. We never enabled this option
(and its dependencies).
- CONFIG_MITIGATION_SRBDS to guard against Special Register Buffer Data
Sampling on affected Intel CPUs (CVE-2020-0543), preventing cross-core
leakage of RDRAND/RDSEED/EGETKEY values.
- CONFIG_MITIGATION_SLS to guard against Spectre-v4 gadgets on x86 by
inserting speculation barriers around RET/JMP/CALL sites when required
by CPU/microcode state.
- CONFIG_MITIGATION_CALL_DEPTH_TRACKING to guard against speculative
call-stack underflow on x86 by enabling hardware-assisted depth
tracking where supported, reducing exposure to RET-based misprediction
attacks.
- CONFIG_MITIGATION_UNRET_ENTRY to guard against RET-based speculation

mac80211: ath9k: gpio: adapt to 6.16+ gpio_chip API change
Linux 6.16 changed the return type of gpio_chip.set() from void to int.
Add a version check so the driver builds correctly on both older and
newer kernels[1].
Reintroduce old-style debugfs file_operations for kernels < 6.14 and
switch the drivers to use debugfs_short_fops + debugfs_create_file_aux
on >= 6.14. This restores compatibility with older kernels while keeping
the new debugfs API working on 6.14+.
Kernel since version 6.16 defines `SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE` and
SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA` in the socket_flags enum, which causes redefinition
errors when compiling the backport package[1].
Since kernel 6.12 also has them defined, the test and definition of these
constants have been completely abandoned. Thanks to this, there are
no compilation errors on either kernel 6.12 or 6.18.
platform/mikrotik: adjust hc_wlan read-callback for 6.18
Include <linux/version.h> and use preprocessor checks to select the appropriate

with older ones

to prevent generation of empty modules.builtin.modinfo and modules.builtin
files that cause modules compilation errors.
If an out-of-tree package or any kernel-install rule ran modprobe xyz while
the build was still in progress, and xyz had been configured =y, a clean tree
would already have xyz listed in modules.builtin; with the empty file produced
by the buggy rule it was missing, so modprobe emitted "module xyz not found"
even though the code was sitting inside the freshly built vmlinux.

realtek: mdio: provide individual bus probing function
rtmdio_probe() is a do-it-all setup function. It creates one
control structure and one bus. In the future multiple busses
will be created. As a preparation carve out the bus specific
part into an individual probing function.
Until now the central control structure is allocated via a call to
devm_mdiobus_alloc_size(). This will not be possible any longer when
multiple busses will be implemented in a future commit.
Relax that as follows:
- Define a new private "channel" structure for a mdio bus
- Allocate the central control structure with a dedicated alloc()
- Allocate only the channel structure during bus setup
- Link the channel to the central structure via chan->ctrl
Reorganize the probing function so that it becomes clearer that
the control structure is setup first and afterwards the bus is
registered.
Add a new helper macro rtmdio_ctrl_from_bus that encapuslates
the current ctrl=bus->priv lookup. This is a preparation for
the future multi-channel driver architecture. With an upcoming
commit the structures will be changed as follows:
- ctrl: contains the generic data structurs
- chan: contains the channel specific structure
This will involve changing the pointers between them
old lookup chain: ctrl = bus->ctrl
new lookup chain: ctrl = bus->chan->ctrl
The helper macro allows to easily switch the lookup in one
central location. While we are here fix a whitespace issue.
realtek: mdio: setup topology from control structure
The topology setup is bus independent and can be derived completely
from the control structure. Adapt the call parameters accordingly.
The call location is quite confusing at the moment. Being no longer
dependent from the bus call it where it makes most sense. This is
directly after the mapping setup in rtmdio_map_ports(). Doing other
bus dependent setup between these two functions is not needed
any longer.
The port specific attributes of the central control structure
have been moved over to a separate port structure. Do the same
for the (up to 4) busses. Establish a separate bus structure
that will hold data about each bus and use it in the control
structure. As a first usage type move the is_c45 attribute over.
realtek: mdio: move phy_node attribute into port structure
The phy_node attribute is defined per port. Move it into the new
port structure. Now it is clear that it belongs to the port.
While we are here rename it to dn (aka device_node) to align with
upstream style. As all usage locations must be adapted it makes
no sense to make two commits (relocate/rename) to change the
code twice.
realtek: mdio: move smi_addr attribute into port structure
The smi_addr attribute is defined per port. Move it into the new
port structure. As the devices have a maximum of 56 addresses
save some space and convert it to type u8.
While we are here harden the mapping routine that reads these
addresses from the DTS. For this check the value that is read into
smi_addr. This is usually the MDIO standard 0..31. Sadly RTL839x
devices are an exception from that and allow addresses 0..51.
To avoid device specific if/then/else cases for now implement
a "light" consistency check.
realtek: mdio: move smi_bus attribute into port structure
The smi_bus attribute is defined per port. Move it into the new
port structure. As the devices have a maximum of 4 busses save
some space and convert it to type u8.
While we are here fix a whitespace issue and rename the helper
variable in rtmdio_map_ports() to smi_bus to align with the
structure attribute.
The central control structure of the mdio bus holds several
attributes. These target two different objects. Some of them
are for the (up to 56) controller ports, some of them are for
the (up to 4) controller busses.
Establish a separate port structure that will hold data about
each port and use it in the control structure. As a first
usage type move the page attribute over.

All basic bridge, VLAN and LAG operations are supported. A single port

Check for dev in driver remove gives no additional security. The
remove() function is only called if probe() succeeded. Probing

remove() will always find dev data via platform_get_drvdata().
The ethernet driver is only loaded via devicetree and makes use
of of_match_table. In this case the probing function is only
called if a matching compatible is set. So pdev->dev.of_node
can never be NULL.

Single writes are still left out on purpose, they need and will be

Config/patch sequences have been reduced and merged by previous changes.
Now that we have a clearer view on them, we can see that there are still
several similarities between the even and odd variants. Some different
writes for even and odd SerDes remain but one can find out they don't
need to be separate. For example, a write to [0x29, 0x09] is missing for
odd SerDes but testing and a SerDes dump from a running configuration
show that the registers still hold the same value and changes do not
affect functionality. Thus, merge them too to get rid of a lot of
even/odd stuff.
Right now, the config sequences for XSGMII and USXGMII have been
stripped down to their essential parts. Still, they have redundancies.
The XSGMII sequences are 99% equal to the generic ANA_10G sequences
(except for a single write which is DFE/LEQ-related and changed during
calibration later anyway), thus we can drop them completely.
The USXGMII sequences contain the same sequences so they can be removed
there too, all being covered by applying the ANA_10G sequence for those
modes too. One different write (register [0x2e, 0x01]) is integrated into
the ANA_10G sequence since testing has shown that the value is either the
default for that register anyway, or set during SDK setup too for 10GR.
