[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 001/114] kconfig: merge_config: use an empty file as initfile

by Sasha Levin

From: Daniel Gomez <da.gomez(a)samsung.com> [ Upstream commit a26fe287eed112b4e21e854f173c8918a6a8596d ] The scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh script requires an existing $INITFILE (or the $1 argument) as a base file for merging Kconfig fragments. However, an empty $INITFILE can serve as an initial starting point, later referenced by the KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG Makefile variable if -m is not used. This variable can point to any configuration file containing preset config symbols (the merged output) as stated in Documentation/kbuild/kconfig.rst. When -m is used $INITFILE will contain just the merge output requiring the user to run make (i.e. KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=<$INITFILE> make <allnoconfig/alldefconfig> or make olddefconfig). Instead of failing when `$INITFILE` is missing, create an empty file and use it as the starting point for merges.

[PATCH v4] x86/sev: Fix making shared pages private during kdump

by Ashish Kalra

From: Ashish Kalra <ashish.kalra(a)amd.com> When the shared pages are being made private during kdump preparation there are additional checks to handle shared GHCB pages. These additional checks include handling the case of GHCB page being contained within a huge page. The check for handling the case of GHCB contained within a huge page incorrectly skips a page just below the GHCB page from being transitioned back to private during kdump preparation. This skipped page causes a 0x404 #VC exception when it is accessed later while dumping guest memory during vmcore generation via kdump. Correct the range to be checked for GHCB contained in a huge page. Also ensure that the skipped huge page containing the GHCB page is transitioned back to private by applying the correct address mask later when changing GHCBs to private at end of kdump preparation.

[PATCH v2 1/1] PCI: Fix lock symmetry in pci_slot_unlock()

by Ilpo Järvinen

The commit a4e772898f8b ("PCI: Add missing bridge lock to pci_bus_lock()") made the lock function to call depend on dev->subordinate but left pci_slot_unlock() unmodified creating locking asymmetry compared with pci_slot_lock(). Because of the asymmetric lock handling, the same bridge device is unlocked twice. First pci_bus_unlock() unlocks bus->self and then pci_slot_unlock() will unconditionally unlock the same bridge device. Move pci_dev_unlock() inside an else branch to match the logic in pci_slot_lock().

[PATCH] parisc stable patch for kernel v6.12

by Helge Deller

Hi Greg, below is a backport for upstream patch fd87b7783802 ("net: Fix the devmem sock opts and msgs for parisc"). This upstream patch does not apply cleanly against v6.12, and backporting all intermediate changes are too big, so I created this trivial standalone patch instead. Can you please add the patc below to the stable queue for v6.12? Thanks! Helge --- From: Pranjal Shrivastava <praan(a)google.com> Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2025 07:42:27 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] net: Fix the devmem sock opts and msgs for parisc The devmem socket options and socket control message definitions introduced in the TCP devmem series[1] incorrectly continued the socket definitions for arch/parisc. The UAPI change seems safe as there are currently no drivers that declare support for devmem TCP RX via PP_FLAG_ALLOW_UNREADABLE_NETMEM. Hence, fixing this UAPI should be safe.

[PATCH v2] video: screen_info: Relocate framebuffers behind PCI bridges

by Thomas Zimmermann

Apply bridge window offsets to screen_info framebuffers during relocation. Fixes invalid access to I/O memory. Resources behind a PCI bridge can be located at a certain offset in the kernel's I/O range. The framebuffer memory range stored in screen_info refers to the offset as seen during boot (essentialy 0). During boot up, the kernel may assign a different memory offset to the bridge device and thereby relocating the framebuffer address of the PCI graphics device as seen by the kernel. The information in screen_info must be updated as well. The helper pcibios_bus_to_resource() performs the relocation of the screen_info resource. The result now matches the I/O-memory resource of the PCI graphics device. As before, we store away the information necessary to update the information in screen_info. Commit 78aa89d1dfba ("firmware/sysfb: Update screen_info for relocated EFI framebuffers") added the code for updating screen_info. It is based on similar functionality that pre-existed in efifb. Efifb uses a pointer to the PCI resource, while the newer code does a memcpy of the region. Hence efifb sees any updates to the PCI resource and avoids the issue. v2: - Fixed tags (Takashi, Ivan) - Updated information on efifb Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann(a)suse.de> Reported-by: "Ivan T.

[PATCH 2/5] rust: clean Rust 1.87.0's `clippy::ptr_eq` lints

by Miguel Ojeda

Starting with Rust 1.87.0 (expected 2025-05-15) [1], Clippy may expand the `ptr_eq` lint, e.g.: error: use `core::ptr::eq` when comparing raw pointers --> rust/kernel/list.rs:438:12 | 438 | if self.first == item { | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: try: `core::ptr::eq(self.first, item)` | = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#ptr_eq = note: `-D clippy::ptr-eq` implied by `-D warnings` = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(clippy::ptr_eq)]` Thus clean the few cases we have. This patch may not be actually needed by the time Rust 1.87.0 releases since a PR to relax the lint has been beta nominated [2] due to reports of being too eager (at least by default) [3].

[PATCH 6.12.y] bpf: Fix BPF_INTERNAL namespace import

by Xi Ruoyao

The commit cdd30ebb1b9f ("module: Convert symbol namespace to string literal") makes the grammar of MODULE_IMPORT_NS and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS different between the stable branches and the mainline. But when the commit 955f9ede52b8 ("bpf: Add namespace to BPF internal symbols") was backported from mainline, only EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS instances are adapted, leaving the MODULE_IMPORT_NS instance with the "new" grammar and causing the module fails to build: ERROR: modpost: module bpf_preload uses symbol bpf_link_get_from_fd from namespace BPF_INTERNAL, but does not import it. ERROR: modpost: module bpf_preload uses symbol kern_sys_bpf from namespace BPF_INTERNAL, but does not import it.
