[PATCH] dma-buf: Fix silent overflow for phys vec to sgt

by David Hu

In case MMIO size is bigger than 4G, and peer2peer dma goes through host bridge, we trigger the code path to assign total linked IVOA, greater than 4G to mapped_len, and leading to a silent overflow Fixes: 3aa31a8bb11e ("dma-buf: provide phys_vec to scatter-gather mapping routine") Signed-off-by: David Hu <xuehaohu(a)google.com> --- drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf-mapping.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf-mapping.c b/drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf-mapping.c index 794acff2546a..658064140357 100644 --- a/drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf-mapping.c +++ b/drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf-mapping.c @@ -95,7 +95,8 @@ struct sg_table *dma_buf_phys_vec_to_sgt(struct dma_buf_attachment *attach, size_t nr_ranges, size_t size, enum dma_data_direction dir) { - unsigned int nents, mapped_len = 0; + unsigned int nents = 0; + size_t mapped_len = 0; struct dma_buf_dma *dma; struct scatterlist *sgl; dma_addr_t addr; -- 2.54.0.563.g4f69b47b94-goog

Geometry Dash Lite – A Challenging Rhythm Game That Keeps Players Hooked

by christabbati＠gmail.com

Mobile games come and go, but some titles remain popular for years because of their addictive gameplay and unique style. One of those games is Geometry Dash Lite, the free version of the famous rhythm-based platformer developed by RobTop Games. Even with its simple controls and minimalist design, the game continues to attract millions of players worldwide. Easy to Play, Difficult to Master The gameplay of Geometry Dash Lite is very straightforward. Players control a geometric icon that automatically moves forward through obstacle-filled levels. The main objective is to jump at the correct time to avoid spikes, traps, and dangerous platforms. The controls only require a single tap or click, making the game easy for anyone to pick up. However, the real challenge comes from mastering timing and memorizing level patterns. One small mistake sends you back to the beginning, which can be frustrating but also highly motivating. Rhythm and Music Create the Experience What truly makes Geometry Dash Lite stand out is its connection between gameplay and music. Every level is synchronized with energetic electronic soundtracks that guide the player through obstacles and jumps. The rhythm helps create a fast-paced and immersive experience that feels both exciting and satisfying. As the music intensifies, so does the gameplay. Players must stay focused and react quickly to survive increasingly difficult sections. Colorful Graphics and Creative Design Although the game uses simple geometric visuals, the design is stylish and memorable. Bright neon colors, smooth animations, and creative level layouts give each stage its own personality. Different gameplay mechanics are introduced as players progress, keeping the experience fresh and challenging. Why Players Keep Coming Back One of the biggest strengths of Geometry Dash Lite is the sense of achievement it provides. Completing a difficult level after dozens of failed attempts feels incredibly rewarding. This balance between frustration and satisfaction is what makes the game so addictive. The game is also perfect for short gaming sessions, allowing players to quickly retry levels and improve their skills over time. Final Thoughts Geometry Dash Lite proves that a game does not need complicated mechanics or realistic graphics to become successful. Its combination of rhythm-based gameplay, challenging obstacles, and energetic music creates an experience that is simple, fun, and highly addictive. Whether you are a beginner looking for a fun mobile game or a competitive player seeking a difficult challenge, Geometry Dash Lite offers an exciting adventure that is hard to put down.

Navigating the Unpredictable: A Dive into Level Devil

by profound.cheetah.kect＠hidingmail.net

If you’re looking for a fun way to spend an evening, trying an interesting game is a great option—especially one that makes you think, explore, or improve your skills without feeling overwhelming. One example that many players enjoy is Level Devil. Even if you’ve never played before, you can approach it like a puzzle: learn the rules, watch what works, and gradually build confidence as levels start to feel more predictable. https://leveldevilfull.com In this article, I’ll walk you through how to experience a game like Level Devil in a friendly, practical way—focusing on what to do first, how to play, and what habits can make the experience smoother. Gameplay When you start Level Devil, your first goal is simply to understand how the game responds to you. Pay attention to the basics: movement controls, timing, and what happens when you try different approaches. Many players get stuck by rushing. Instead, try a short “experiment run” where your only objective is to learn mechanics—no pressure to win quickly. As you progress, the game tends to reward pattern recognition. Levels may ask you to manage obstacles, plan routes, or react under time constraints. A helpful mindset is to think in small steps: What’s the next safe action? What’s the easiest section to master first? If a section feels difficult, pause and observe. Look for consistent cues—visual hints, recurring enemy behavior, or environmental timing. Often, you don’t need a “perfect” run; you need a reliable one. For another way to explore the experience, some players prefer to review the broader game details here: Level Devil. Tips Start with calm attempts. If you’re on your first run, prioritize learning over scoring. Try not to restart too many times in anger—give yourself time to understand the rhythm of a level. Use “fail data.” Each time you die, ask a simple question: Did I misread timing, misjudge distance, or panic too early? That answer helps you choose a better strategy next attempt. Practice the hardest segment, not the whole level. If the game allows repetition, focus on the portion that blocks you. Clearing smaller checkpoints builds momentum. Keep your controls consistent. Sudden changes in how you press buttons or time actions can make you worse temporarily. Once you find a comfortable method, stick with it for a few attempts. Take breaks when you’re frustrated. A five-minute pause can reset your focus. When you return, you’ll often spot a solution you missed before. Conclusion Playing a game like Level Devil is less about having “elite” reflexes and more about learning the game’s patterns and improving step by step. Start by experimenting, approach challenges with curiosity, and use your failures as feedback. With a calm routine—short sessions, focused practice, and mindful breaks—you can enjoy the puzzle-like satisfaction that makes many levels rewarding.

[PATCH v3 00/10] Add dmabuf read/write via io_uring

by Pavel Begunkov

The patch set allows to register a dmabuf to an io_uring instance for a specified file and use it with io_uring read / write requests. The infrastructure is not tied to io_uring and there could be more users in the future. A similar idea was attempted some years ago by Keith [1], from where I borrowed a good number of changes, and later was brough up by Tushar and Vishal from Intel. It's an opt-in feature for files, and they need to implement a new file operation to use it. Only NVMe block devices are supported in this series. The user API is built on top of io_uring's "registered buffers", where a dmabuf is registered in a special way, but after it can be used as any other "registered buffer" with IORING_OP_{READ,WRITE}_FIXED requests. It's created via a new file operation and the resulted map is then passed through the I/O stack in a new iterator type. There is some additional infrastructure to bind it all, which also counts requests using a dmabuf map and managing lifetimes, which is used to implement map invalidation. It was tested for GPU <-> NVMe transfers. Also, as it maintains a long-term dma mapping, it helps with the IOMMU cost. The numbers below are for udmabuf reads previously run by Anuj for different IOMMU modes: - STRICT: before = 570 KIOPS, after = 5.01 MIOPS - LAZY: before = 1.93 MIOPS, after = 5.01 MIOPS - PASSTHROUGH: before = 5.01 MIOPS, after = 5.01 MIOPS There are some liburing tests that can serve as an example: git: https://github.com/isilence/liburing.git rw-dmabuf-tests-v3 url: https://github.com/isilence/liburing/tree/rw-dmabuf-tests-v3 [1] https://lore.kernel.org/io-uring/20220805162444.3985535-1-kbusch@fb.com/ v3: - Rework io_uring registration - Move token/map infrastructure code out of blk-mq - Simplify callbacks: remove a separate blk-mq table, which was mostly just forwarding calls (to nvme). - Don't skip dma sync depending on request direction - Fix a couple of hangs - Rename s/dma/dmabuf/ - Other small changes v2: - Don't pass raw dma addresses, wrap it into a driver specific object - Split into two objects: token and map - Implement move_notify Pavel Begunkov (10): file: add callback for creating long-term dmabuf maps iov_iter: add iterator type for dmabuf maps block: move bvec init into __bio_clone block: introduce dma map backed bio type lib: add dmabuf token infrastructure block: forward create_dmabuf_token to drivers nvme-pci: implement dma_token backed requests io_uring/rsrc: introduce buf registration structure io_uring/rsrc: extend buffer update io_uring/rsrc: add dmabuf backed registered buffers block/bio.c | 28 +++- block/blk-merge.c | 14 ++ block/blk.h | 3 +- block/fops.c | 16 ++ drivers/nvme/host/pci.c | 282 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/bio.h | 19 ++- include/linux/blk-mq.h | 9 + include/linux/blk_types.h | 8 +- include/linux/fs.h | 2 + include/linux/io_dmabuf_token.h | 92 +++++++++++ include/linux/io_uring_types.h | 5 + include/linux/uio.h | 11 ++ include/uapi/linux/io_uring.h | 31 +++- io_uring/io_uring.c | 3 +- io_uring/rsrc.c | 266 +++++++++++++++++++++++++----- io_uring/rsrc.h | 30 +++- io_uring/rw.c | 4 +- lib/Kconfig | 4 + lib/Makefile | 2 + lib/io_dmabuf_token.c | 272 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ lib/iov_iter.c | 29 +++- 21 files changed, 1071 insertions(+), 59 deletions(-) create mode 100644 include/linux/io_dmabuf_token.h create mode 100644 lib/io_dmabuf_token.c -- 2.53.0

Thermal Logic: Why Gambling Ended Up at the Heart of the German Resort Economy Thermal resorts in the 18th and 19th centuries http://auslaendische-online-casinos.de/ needed a way to keep wealthy visitors entertained past dinner. Concerts helped. Theater helped more. But nothing extended the stay — and the spending — quite like a well-appointed room where money could change hands in a socially acceptable setting. Baden-Baden understood this before most. The Kurhaus became a model not because it was unique but because it made the interdependence visible. A guest who came for the waters stayed for the tables, spent on the hotel, bought things in the shops, and left having funded an entire local economy for several days. The logic was circular and deliberately so. Civic planners in spa towns across what would become Germany replicated it, which is why the origins of casinos in Germany are not found in any single invention but in a distributed experiment conducted across dozens of small resort towns competing for the same aristocratic clientele throughout the 1800s. Bad Homburg refined the roulette wheel. Wiesbaden attracted the Russian literary crowd. Aachen positioned itself for the Belgian and French market. Each town adapted the model to its geography and its visitors, and the result was a casino culture embedded in regional identity rather than sitting apart from it. Prussia's 1868 ban interrupted that trajectory sharply. The decades that followed pushed gambling into legal ambiguity across German territories, and the post-war reconstruction of the industry happened unevenly — shaped more by which states had surviving spa infrastructure than by any coherent national policy. That patchwork is still visible today in the distribution of licensed land-based establishments, clustered around the same historic resort towns that invented the format in the first place. The digital era forced a reckoning with this geography. Online platforms do not have a location in any meaningful sense, which made the old state-by-state regulatory model collapse under its own inconsistencies. The 2021 Glücksspielstaatsvertrag addressed this by creating a unified federal framework and, critically, establishing the conditions under which providers could obtain a casino Germany EU license — a mechanism bringing domestic law into functional alignment with the internal market principles Brussels had been pressing for years. The treaty imposed strict behavioral constraints: mandatory deposit limits, real-time transaction monitoring, advertising watersheds, and a hard prohibition on certain product categories that had flourished in the unregulated online space. For operators already holding licenses in Malta or Gibraltar, the German market became accessible in theory and expensive in practice. Compliance infrastructure, local tax obligations, and the administrative requirements of the new framework made entry calculations difficult for anyone below a certain scale. Consolidation followed, as it tends to. The broader European picture remains deliberately fragmented. France runs its online market through a state-backed monopoly logic. The Netherlands introduced licensing in 2021 under its own Remote Gambling Act, with a different set of consumer protection priorities. Sweden liberalized in 2019 and has spent the years since managing the gap between projected and actual outcomes in problem gambling rates. Germany sits somewhere in this spectrum — more open than its pre-2021 self, more restrictive than the offshore destinations its residents had been using freely for years before the law caught up.

I completely agree. Implanting DEPT's model into an AI review prompt is a great idea. As you suggested, the patterns we develop for the AI could provide valuable feedback to enhance DEPT's itself. > If the review prompt is only used to eliminate DEPT's false positives, I think that would be quite hard to get broad use. > > Someone would have to build out-of-tree DEPT, collect the reports, and then feed those back into the AI. I don't think building that kind of pipeline would actually work well in practice. I also have a huge dept report of DEPT reports, and manually reviewing all of them is makes me sigh. The constant kernel rebuilds required for lockup testing every time are also quite expensive. Thanks for the summary! Best Regards, Yunseong
