clocksource: Rewrite watchdog code completely
The clocksource watchdog code has over time reached the state of an
impenetrable maze of duct tape and staples. The original design, which was
made in the context of systems far smaller than today, is based on the
assumption that the to be monitored clocksource (TSC) can be trivially
compared against a known to be stable clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM timer).
Over the years it turned out that this approach has major flaws:
- Long delays between watchdog invocations can result in wrap arounds
of the reference clocksource
- Scalability of the reference clocksource readout can degrade on large
multi-socket systems due to interconnect congestion
This was addressed with various heuristics which degraded the accuracy of
the watchdog to the point that it fails to detect actual TSC problems on
older hardware which exposes slow inter CPU drifts due to firmware
manipulating the TSC to hide SMI time.
To address this and bring back sanity to the watchdog, rewrite the code
completely with a different approach:
1) Restrict the validation against a reference clocksource to the boot
CPU, which is usually the CPU/Socket closest to the legacy block which
contains the reference source (HPET/ACPI-PM timer). Validate that the
reference readout is within a bound latency so that the actual
comparison against the TSC stays within 500ppm as long as the clocks
are stable.
2) Compare the TSCs of the other CPUs in a round robin fashion against
the boot CPU in the same way the TSC synchronization on CPU hotplug
works. This still can suffer from delayed reaction of the remote CPU
to the SMP function call and the latency of the control variable cache
line. But this latency is not affecting correctness. It only affects
the accuracy. With low contention the readout latency is in the low
nanoseconds range, which detects even slight skews between CPUs. Under
high contention this becomes obviously less accurate, but still
detects slow skews reliably as it solely relies on subsequent readouts
being monotonically increasing. It just can take slightly longer to
detect the issue.
3) Rewrite the watchdog test so it tests the various mechanisms one by
one and validating the result against the expectation.

mm/hmm: Indicate that HMM requires DMA coherency
HMM is fundamentally about allowing a sophisticated device to perform DMA
directly to a process’s memory while the CPU accesses that same memory at
the same time. It is similar to SVA but does not rely on IOMMU support.
Because the entire model depends on concurrent access to shared memory, it
fails as a uAPI if SWIOTLB substitutes the memory or if the CPU caches are
not coherent with DMA.
Until now, there has been no reliable way to report this, and various
approximations have been used:
int hmm_dma_map_alloc(struct device *dev, struct hmm_dma_map *map,
size_t nr_entries, size_t dma_entry_size)
{

RDMA/umem: Tell DMA mapping that UMEM requires coherency
The RDMA subsystem exposes DMA regions through the verbs interface, which
assumes a coherent system. Use the DMA_ATTR_REQUIRE_COHERENCE attribute
to ensure coherency and avoid taking the SWIOTLB path.
The RDMA verbs programming model resembles HMM and assumes concurrent DMA
and CPU access to userspace memory. The hardware and programming model
support "one-sided" operations initiated remotely without any local CPU
involvement or notification. These include ATOMIC compare/swap, READ, and
WRITE. A remote CPU can use these operations to traverse data structures,
manipulate locks, and perform similar tasks without the host CPU’s
awareness. If SWIOTLB substitutes memory or DMA is not cache coherent,
these use cases break entirely.
In-kernel RDMA is fine with incoherent mappings because kernel users do
not rely on one-sided operations in ways that would expose these issues.
A given region may also be exported multiple times, which can trigger
warnings about cacheline overlaps. These warnings are suppressed when the
new attribute is used.

xen/privcmd: restrict usage in unprivileged domU
The Xen privcmd driver allows to issue arbitrary hypercalls from
user space processes. This is normally no problem, as access is
usually limited to root and the hypervisor will deny any hypercalls
affecting other domains.
In case the guest is booted using secure boot, however, the privcmd
driver would be enabling a root user process to modify e.g. kernel
memory contents, thus breaking the secure boot feature.
The only known case where an unprivileged domU is really needing to
use the privcmd driver is the case when it is acting as the device
model for another guest. In this case all hypercalls issued via the
privcmd driver will target that other guest.
Fortunately the privcmd driver can already be locked down to allow
only hypercalls targeting a specific domain, but this mode can be
activated from user land only today.
The target domain can be obtained from Xenstore, so when not running
in dom0 restrict the privcmd driver to that target domain from the
beginning, resolving the potential problem of breaking secure boot.

drm/bridge: add drm_bridge_clear_and_put()
Drivers having a struct drm_bridge pointer pointing to a bridge in many

cases the reference to the bridge can be put in the .remove callback
(possibly using devm actions) or in the .destroy func (possibly with the
help of struct drm_bridge::next_bridge). At those moments the driver should
not be operating anymore and won't dereference the bridge pointer after it
is put.
However there are cases when drivers need to stop holding a reference to a
bridge even when their device is not being removed. This is the case for
bridge hot-unplug, when a bridge is removed but the previous entity (bridge
or encoder) is staying. In such case the "previous entity" needs to put it
but cannot do it via devm or .destroy, because it is not being removed.
However this is risky because there is a time window between the two lines
where the reference is put, and thus the bridge could be deallocated, but
the pointer is still assigned. If other functions of the same driver were
invoked concurrently they might dereference my_priv->some_bridge during
that window, resulting in use-after-free.
A correct solution is to clear the pointer before putting the reference,
but that needs a temporary variable:

scsi: target: tcm_loop: Drain commands in target_reset handler
tcm_loop_target_reset() violates the SCSI EH contract: it returns SUCCESS
without draining any in-flight commands. The SCSI EH documentation
(scsi_eh.rst) requires that when a reset handler returns SUCCESS the driver
has made lower layers "forget about timed out scmds" and is ready for new
commands. Every other SCSI LLD (virtio_scsi, mpt3sas, ipr, scsi_debug,
mpi3mr) enforces this by draining or completing outstanding commands before
returning SUCCESS.
Because tcm_loop_target_reset() doesn't drain, the SCSI EH reuses in-flight
scsi_cmnd structures for recovery commands (e.g. TUR) while the target core
still has async completion work queued for the old se_cmd. The memset in
queuecommand zeroes se_lun and lun_ref_active, causing
transport_lun_remove_cmd() to skip its percpu_ref_put(). The leaked LUN
reference prevents transport_clear_lun_ref() from completing, hanging
configfs LUN unlink forever in D-state:

Fix this by making tcm_loop_target_reset() actually drain commands:
1. Issue TMR_LUN_RESET via tcm_loop_issue_tmr() to drain all commands that
the target core knows about (those not yet CMD_T_COMPLETE).
2. Use blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() to iterate all started requests and
flush_work() on each se_cmd — this drains any deferred completion work
for commands that already had CMD_T_COMPLETE set before the TMR (which
the TMR skips via __target_check_io_state()). This is the same pattern
used by mpi3mr, scsi_debug, and libsas to drain outstanding commands
during reset.

net: fjes: Drop fjes_acpi_driver and rework initialization
The ACPI driver interface used by the Fujitsu Extended Socket (fjes)
Network Device driver is redundant because its only role is to create
a platform device the fjes platform driver can bind to, which can be
done already at the module initialization time.
Namely, acpi_find_extended_socket_device() looks for the requisite ACPI
device object anyway and it may as well check its resources, and the
platform device can be created when the ACPI object in question
has been found (and it can be freed when the module is unloaded).
Moreover, as a rule, it is better to avoid binding drivers directly to
ACPI device objects [1].
Accordingly, drop fjes_acpi_driver, adjust the module initialization
and exit code as per the above and set the fwnode for the fjes platform
device to point to the corresponding ACPI device object as its ACPI
companion.
While this is not expected to alter functionality, it changes sysfs
layout and so it will be visible to user space.

net: stmmac: descriptor cleanups part 2
Part 2 of the stmmac descriptor cleanups.
- rename "priv->mode" to be more descriptive, and do the same in
function arguments.
- simplify descriptor allocation/initialisation/freeing
- use more descriptive local variable names in stmmac_xmit()
- STMMAC_GET_ENTRY() doesn't get an entry, it moves to the next one.
Describe this in the macro name.
====================
STMMAC_GET_ENTRY() doesn't describe what this macro is doing - it is
incrementing the provided index for the circular array of descriptors.
Replace "GET" with "NEXT" as this better describes the action here.
Rather than having separate branches to handle the different types of
descriptors, use the helper functions to calculate the total size of
the DMA descriptors.
Use this to allocate or free the descriptor array, and use a local
variable to hold the address of the descriptor array, so we only need
one dma_alloc_coherent() or dma_free_coherent() call in these paths.
Also do the same for the receive ring initialisation. The transmit
ring can't be converted as there is a case where stmmac_mode_init()
is not called.
priv->mode doesn't describe what it refers to, it is whether we operate
the DMA descriptors as a ring or chain. It is also difficult to grep for
as there are several "mode" struct members. Add "descriptor_" prefix.

net: openvswitch: Avoid releasing netdev before teardown completes
The patch cited in the Fixes tag below changed the teardown code for
OVS ports to no longer unconditionally take the RTNL. After this change,
the netdev_destroy() callback can proceed immediately to the call_rcu()
invocation if the IFF_OVS_DATAPATH flag is already cleared on the
netdev.
The ovs_netdev_detach_dev() function clears the flag before completing
the unregistration, and if it gets preempted after clearing the flag (as
can happen on an -rt kernel), netdev_destroy() can complete and the
device can be freed before the unregistration completes. This leads to a
splat like:
To fix this, reorder the operations in ovs_netdev_detach_dev() to only
clear the flag after completing the other operations, and introduce an
smp_wmb() to make the ordering requirement explicit. The smp_wmb() is
paired with a full smp_mb() in netdev_destroy() to make sure the
call_rcu() invocation does not happen before the unregister operations
are visible.

After a discussion [1], there was an attempt to fix the problem by
reverting the offending change by commit 7b211c767121 ("Revert "i2c:
pxa: move to generic GPIO recovery""), but that only helped to fix
the issue in the 6.1.y stable tree. The reason behind the partial succes
is that there was another change in commit 20cb3fce4d60 ("i2c: Set i2c
pinctrl recovery info from it's device pinctrl") in the 6.3-rc1 cycle
which broke things further.
The cause of the problem is the same in case of both offending commits
mentioned above. Namely, the I2C core code changes the pinctrl state to
GPIO while running the recovery initialization code. Although the PXA
specific initialization also does this, but the key difference is that
it happens before the controller is getting enabled in i2c_pxa_reset(),
whereas in the case of the generic initialization it happens after that.
Change the code to reset the controller only before the first transfer
instead of before registering the controller. This ensures that the
controller is not enabled at the time when the generic recovery code
performs the pinctrl state changes, thus avoids the problem described
above.
As the result this change restores the original behaviour, which in
turn makes the I2C communication to work again as it can be seen from
the following log:

ionic: fix persistent MAC address override on PF
The use of IONIC_CMD_LIF_SETATTR in the MAC address update path causes
the ionic firmware to update the LIF's identity in its persistent state.
Since the firmware state is maintained across host warm boots and driver
reloads, any MAC change on the Physical Function (PF) becomes "sticky.
This is problematic because it causes ethtool -P to report the
user-configured MAC as the permanent factory address, which breaks
system management tools that rely on a stable hardware identity.
While Virtual Functions (VFs) need this hardware-level programming to
properly handle MAC assignments in guest environments, the PF should
maintain standard transient behavior. This patch gates the
ionic_program_mac call using is_virtfn so that PF MAC changes remain
local to the netdev filters and do not overwrite the firmware's
permanent identity block.

Add /sys/module/*/import_ns to expose imported namespaces for
currently loaded modules. The file contains one namespace per line and
only exists for modules that import at least one namespace.
Previously, the only way for userspace to inspect the symbol
namespaces a module imports is to locate the .ko on disk and invoke
modinfo(8) to decompress/parse the metadata. The kernel validated
namespaces at load time, but it was otherwise discarded.
Exposing this data via sysfs provides a runtime mechanism to verify
which namespaces are being used by modules. For example, this allows
userspace to audit driver API access in Android GKI, which uses symbol
namespaces to restrict vendor drivers from using specific kernel
interfaces (e.g., direct filesystem access).
