[merged mm-hotfixes-stable] hung_task-fix-warnings-caused-by-unaligned-lock-pointers.patch removed from -mm tree

The quilt patch titled Subject: hung_task: fix warnings caused by unaligned lock pointers has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was hung_task-fix-warnings-caused-by-unaligned-lock-pointers.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Lance Yang <lance.yang(a)linux.dev> Subject: hung_task: fix warnings caused by unaligned lock pointers Date: Tue, 9 Sep 2025 22:52:43 +0800 From: Lance Yang <lance.yang(a)linux.dev> The blocker tracking mechanism assumes that lock pointers are at least 4-byte aligned to use their lower bits for type encoding. However, as reported by Eero Tamminen, some architectures like m68k only guarantee 2-byte alignment of 32-bit values. This breaks the assumption and causes two related WARN_ON_ONCE checks to trigger. To fix this, the runtime checks are adjusted to silently ignore any lock that is not 4-byte aligned, effectively disabling the feature in such cases and avoiding the related warnings.

Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki(a)intel.com> Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2025 12:12:37 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: Make drivers using CPUFREQ_ETERNAL specify transition latency Commit a755d0e2d41b ("cpufreq: Honour transition_latency over transition_delay_us") caused platforms where cpuinfo.transition_latency is CPUFREQ_ETERNAL to get a very large transition latency whereas previously it had been capped at 10 ms (and later at 2 ms). This led to a user-observable regression between 6.6 and 6.12 as described by Shawn: "The dbs sampling_rate was 10000 us on 6.6 and suddently becomes 6442450 us (4294967295 / 1000 * 1.5) on 6.12 for these platforms because the default transition delay was dropped [...]. It slows down dbs governor's reacting to CPU loading change dramatically. Also, as transition_delay_us is used by schedutil governor as rate_limit_us, it shows a negative impact on device idle power consumption, because the device gets slightly less time in the lowest OPP." Evidently, the expectation of the drivers using CPUFREQ_ETERNAL as cpuinfo.transition_latency was that it would be capped by the core, but they may as well return a default transition latency value instead of CPUFREQ_ETERNAL and the core need not do anything with it. Accordingly, introduce CPUFREQ_DEFAULT_TRANSITION_LATENCY_NS and make all of the drivers in question use it instead of CPUFREQ_ETERNAL. Also update the related Rust binding.

Given that it is very cheap for us to check whether the buffer is too small before we remove the message from the ring buffer, let's just do that instead.

[PATCH 1/3] net: ravb: Make DBAT entry count configurable per-SoC

by Prabhakar

From: Lad Prabhakar <prabhakar.mahadev-lad.rj(a)bp.renesas.com> The number of CDARq (Current Descriptor Address Register) registers is not fixed to 22 across all SoC variants. For example, the GBETH implementation uses only two entries. Hardcoding the value leads to incorrect resource allocation on such platforms. Pass the DBAT entry count through the per-SoC hardware info struct and use it during probe instead of relying on a fixed constant. This ensures correct descriptor table sizing and initialization across different SoCs.

[PATCH 6.1 0/6] fix invalid sleeping in detect_cache_attributes()

by Wen Yang

commit 3fcbf1c77d08 ("arch_topology: Fix cache attributes detection in the CPU hotplug path") adds a call to detect_cache_attributes() to populate the cacheinfo before updating the siblings mask. detect_cache_attributes() allocates memory and can take the PPTT mutex (on ACPI platforms). On PREEMPT_RT kernels, on secondary CPUs, this triggers a: 'BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context' as the code is executed with preemption and interrupts disabled: | BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:46 | in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 128, non_block: 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/111 | preempt_count: 1, expected: 0 | RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 1 | 3 locks held by swapper/111/0: | #0: (&pcp->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: get_page_from_freelist+0x218/0x12c8 | #1: (rcu_read_lock){....}-{1:3}, at: rt_spin_trylock+0x48/0xf0 | #2: (&zone->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: rmqueue_bulk+0x64/0xa80 | irq event stamp: 0 | hardirqs last enabled at (0): 0x0 | hardirqs last disabled at (0): copy_process+0x5dc/0x1ab8 | softirqs last enabled at (0): copy_process+0x5dc/0x1ab8 | softirqs last disabled at (0): 0x0 | Preemption disabled at: | migrate_enable+0x30/0x130 | CPU: 111 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/111 Tainted: G W 6.0.0-rc4-rt6-[...] | Call trace: | __kmalloc+0xbc/0x1e8 | detect_cache_attributes+0x2d4/0x5f0 | update_siblings_masks+0x30/0x368 | store_cpu_topology+0x78/0xb8 | secondary_start_kernel+0xd0/0x198 | __secondary_switched+0xb0/0xb4 Pierre fixed this issue in the upstream 6.3 and the original series is follows: https://lore.kernel.org/all/167404285593.885445.6219705651301997538.b4-ty@a… We also encountered the same issue on 6.1 stable branch, and need to backport this series.

[PATCH 2/3] net: ravb: Allocate correct number of queues based on SoC support

by Prabhakar

From: Lad Prabhakar <prabhakar.mahadev-lad.rj(a)bp.renesas.com> On SoCs that only support the best-effort queue and not the network control queue, calling alloc_etherdev_mqs() with fixed values for TX/RX queues is not appropriate. Use the nc_queues flag from the per-SoC match data to determine whether the network control queue is available, and fall back to a single TX/RX queue when it is not. This ensures correct queue allocation across all supported SoCs.

But on the other hand, there is also a very low chance to hit above ASSERT() with bs < ps cases, so this is an existing bug affect not only the incoming bs > ps support but also the existing bs < ps support. [CAUSE] Firstly that ASSERT() means we're trying to submit a dirty block but without a real extent map nor ordered extent map backing it. Furthermore with extra debugging, the folio triggering such ASSERT() is always larger than the fs block size in my bs > ps case. (8K block size, 4K page size) After some more debugging, the ASSERT() is trigger by the following sequence: extent_writepage() | We got a 32K folio (4 fs blocks) at file offset 0, and the fs block | size is 8K, page size is 4K. | And there is another 8K folio at file offset 32K, which is also | dirty. | So the filemap layout looks like the following: | | "||" is the filio boundary in the filemap. | "//| is the dirty range. | | 0 8K 16K 24K 32K 40K | |////////| |//////////////////////||////////| | |- writepage_delalloc() | |- find_lock_delalloc_range() for [0, 8K) | | Now range [0, 8K) is properly locked. | | | |- find_lock_delalloc_range() for [16K, 40K) | | |- btrfs_find_delalloc_range() returned range [16K, 40K) | | |- lock_delalloc_folios() locked folio 0 successfully | | | | | | The filemap range [32K, 40K) got dropped from filemap. | | | | | |- lock_delalloc_folios() failed with -EAGAIN on folio 32K | | | As the folio at 32K is dropped. | | | | | |- loops = 1; | | |- max_bytes = PAGE_SIZE; | | |- goto again; | | | This will re-do the lookup for dirty delalloc ranges. | | | | | |- btrfs_find_delalloc_range() called with @max_bytes == 4K | | | This is smaller than block size, so | | | btrfs_find_delalloc_range() is unable to return any range. | | \- return false; | | | \- Now only range [0, 8K) has an OE for it, but for dirty range | [16K, 32K) it's dirty without an OE. | This breaks the assumption that writepage_delalloc() will find | and lock all dirty ranges inside the folio. | |- extent_writepage_io() |- submit_one_sector() for [0, 8K) | Succeeded | |- submit_one_sector() for [16K, 24K) Triggering the ASSERT(), as there is no OE, and the original extent map is a hole. Please note that, this also exposed the same problem for bs < ps support. E.g. with 64K page size and 4K block size. If we failed to lock a folio, and falls back into the "loops = 1;" branch, we will re-do the search using 64K as max_bytes. Which may fail again to lock the next folio, and exit early without handling all dirty blocks inside the folio. [FIX] Instead of using the fixed size PAGE_SIZE as @max_bytes, use @sectorsize, so that we are ensured to find and lock any remaining blocks inside the folio. And since we're here, add an extra ASSERT() to before calling btrfs_find_delalloc_range() to make sure the @max_bytes is at least no smaller than a block to avoid false negative.
