[PATCH v2 1/2] PCI: Forcefully set the PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_BUS flag for Marvell CN96XX/CN10XXX boards

On our board, the 0002:00:07.0 bridge is misconfigured by the bootloader. Both its secondary and subordinate bus numbers are initialized to 0, while its fixed secondary bus number is set to 8. However, bus number 8 is also assigned to another bridge (0002:00:0f.0). Although this is a bootloader issue, before the change in commit 7246a4520b4b, the PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_BUS flag was set by default when PCI_PROBE_ONLY was not enabled, ensuing that all the bus number for these bridges were reassigned, avoiding any conflicts. After the change introduced in commit 7246a4520b4b, the bus numbers assigned by the bootloader are reused by all other bridges, except the misconfigured 0002:00:07.0 bridge. The kernel attempt to reconfigure 0002:00:07.0 by reusing the fixed secondary bus number 8 assigned by bootloader. However, since a pci_bus has already been allocated for bus 8 due to the probe of 0002:00:0f.0, no new pci_bus allocated for 0002:00:07.0. This results in a pci bridge device without a pci_bus attached (pdev->subordinate == NULL). Consequently, accessing pdev->subordinate in of_pci_prop_bus_range() leads to a NULL pointer dereference. To summarize, we need to set the PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_BUS flag when PCI_PROBE_ONLY is not enabled in order to work around issue like the one described above.

[PATCH v9] arm64: mm: Populate vmemmap at the page level if not section aligned

by Zhenhua Huang

On the arm64 platform with 4K base page config, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is set to 27, making one section 128M. The related page struct which vmemmap points to is 2M then. Commit c1cc1552616d ("arm64: MMU initialisation") optimizes the vmemmap to populate at the PMD section level which was suitable initially since hot plug granule is always one section(128M). However, commit ba72b4c8cf60 ("mm/sparsemem: support sub-section hotplug") introduced a 2M(SUBSECTION_SIZE) hot plug granule, which disrupted the existing arm64 assumptions. The first problem is that if start or end is not aligned to a section boundary, such as when a subsection is hot added, populating the entire section is wasteful. The next problem is if we hotplug something that spans part of 128 MiB section (subsections, let's call it memblock1), and then hotplug something that spans another part of a 128 MiB section(subsections, let's call it memblock2), and subsequently unplug memblock1, vmemmap_free() will clear the entire PMD entry which also supports memblock2 even though memblock2 is still active. Assuming hotplug/unplug sizes are guaranteed to be symmetric. Do the fix similar to x86-64: populate to pages levels if start/end is not aligned with section boundary.

[PATCH] media: ov08x40: Extend sleep after reset to 5 ms

by Hans de Goede

Some users are reporting that ov08x40_identify_module() fails to identify the chip reading 0x00 as value for OV08X40_REG_CHIP_ID. Intel's out of tree IPU6 drivers include some ov08x40 changes including adding support for the reset GPIO for older kernels and Intel's patch for this uses 5 ms. Extend the sleep to 5 ms following Intel's example, this fixes the ov08x40_identify_module() problem.

The existing mremap() logic has grown organically over a very long period of time, resulting in code that is in many parts, very difficult to follow and full of subtleties and sources of confusion. In addition, it is difficult to thread state through the operation correctly, as function arguments have expanded, some parameters are expected to be temporarily altered during the operation, others are intended to remain static and some can be overridden. This series completely refactors the mremap implementation, sensibly separating functions, adding comments to explain the more subtle aspects of the implementation and making use of small structs to thread state through everything. The reason for doing so is to lay the groundwork for planned future changes to the mremap logic, changes which require the ability to easily pass around state. Additionally, it would be unhelpful to add yet more logic to code that is already difficult to follow without first refactoring it like this. The first patch in this series additionally fixes a bug when a VMA with start address zero is partially remapped. Tested on real hardware under heavy workload and all self tests are passing. This patch (of 3): Consider the case of a partial mremap() (that results in a VMA split) of an accountable VMA (i.e. which has the VM_ACCOUNT flag set) whose start address is zero, with the MREMAP_MAYMOVE flag specified and a scenario where a move does in fact occur: addr end | | v v |-------------| | vma | |-------------| 0 This move is affected by unmapping the range [addr, end). In order to prevent an incorrect decrement of accounted memory which has already been determined, the mremap() code in move_vma() clears VM_ACCOUNT from the VMA prior to doing so, before reestablishing it in each of the VMAs post-split: addr end | | v v |---| |---| | A | | B | |---| |---| Commit 6b73cff239e5 ("mm: change munmap splitting order and move_vma()") changed this logic such as to determine whether there is a need to do so by establishing account_start and account_end and, in the instance where such an operation is required, assigning them to vma->vm_start and vma->vm_end. Later the code checks if the operation is required for 'A' referenced above thusly: if (account_start) { ... } However, if the VMA described above has vma->vm_start == 0, which is now assigned to account_start, this branch will not be executed. As a result, the VMA 'A' above will remain stripped of its VM_ACCOUNT flag, incorrectly. The fix is to simply convert these variables to booleans and set them as required.
