[PATCH v2 1/2] usb: typec: ucsi: fix probe failure in gaokun_ucsi_probe()

by Duoming Zhou

The gaokun_ucsi_probe() uses ucsi_create() to allocate a UCSI instance. The ucsi_create() validates whether ops->poll_cci is defined, and if not, it directly returns -EINVAL. However, the gaokun_ucsi_ops structure does not define the poll_cci, causing ucsi_create() always fail with -EINVAL. This issue can be observed in the kernel log with the following error: ucsi_huawei_gaokun.ucsi huawei_gaokun_ec.ucsi.0: probe with driver ucsi_huawei_gaokun.ucsi failed with error -22 Fix the issue by adding the missing poll_cci callback to gaokun_ucsi_ops.

PROBLEM: hwclock busted w/ M48T59 RTC (regression)

by Nick Bowler

Hi, After a stable kernel update, the hwclock command seems no longer functional on my SPARC system with an ST M48T59Y-70PC1 RTC: # hwclock [...long delay...] hwclock: select() to /dev/rtc0 to wait for clock tick timed out On prior kernels, there is no problem: # hwclock 2025-10-22 22:21:04.806992-04:00 I reproduced the same failure on 6.18-rc2 and bisected to this commit: commit 795cda8338eab036013314dbc0b04aae728880ab Author: Esben Haabendal <esben(a)geanix.com> Date: Fri May 16 09:23:35 2025 +0200 rtc: interface: Fix long-standing race when setting alarm This commit was backported to all current 6.x stable branches, as well as 5.15.x, so they all have the same regression. Reverting this commit on top of 6.18-rc2 corrects the problem. Let me know if you need any more info! Thanks, Nick

[PATCH] crypto: octeontx: Fix length check to avoid truncation in ucode_load_store

by Thorsten Blum

OTX_CPT_UCODE_NAME_LENGTH limits the microcode name to 64 bytes. If a user writes a string of exactly 64 characters, the original code used 'strlen(buf) > 64' to check the length, but then strscpy() copies only 63 characters before adding a NUL terminator, silently truncating the copied string. Fix this off-by-one error by using 'count' directly for the length check to ensure long names are rejected early and copied without truncation.

I did some analysis based on your trace files. I have been playing some time ago with speedometer performance issues so that's why I'm curious about your report here. I've filtered your trace purely based on cpu7 (the single biggest cpu). Then I have cut the data from the 'warm-up' phase in both traces, to have similar start point (I think). It looks like the 2 traces can show similar 'pattern' of that benchmark which is good for analysis. If you align the timestamp: 176.051s and 972.465s then both plots (frequency changes in time) look similar. There are some differences, though: 1. there are more deeps in the freq in time, so more often you would pay extra penalty for the ramp-up again 2. some of the ramp-up phases are a bit longer ~100ms instead of ~80ms going from 2GHz to 3.6GHz 3. There are idle phases missing in the trace, so we have to be careful when e.g. comparing avg frequency, because that might not be the real indication of the delivered computation and not indicate the gap in the score. Here are the stats: 1. revert: frequency count 1.318000e+03 mean 2.932240e+06 std 5.434045e+05 min 2.000000e+06 50% 3.000000e+06 85% 3.600000e+06 90% 3.626000e+06 95% 3.626000e+06 99% 3.626000e+06 max 3.626000e+06 2. base: frequency count 1.551000e+03 mean 2.809391e+06 std 5.369750e+05 min 2.000000e+06 50% 2.800000e+06 85% 3.500000e+06 90% 3.600000e+06 95% 3.626000e+06 99% 3.626000e+06 max 3.626000e+06 A better indication in this case would be comparison of the frequency residency in time, especially for the max freq: 1. revert: 11.92s 2. base: 9.11s So there is 2.8s longer residency for that fmax (while we even have longer period for finishing that Speedometer 2 test on 'base'). Here is some detail about that run*: +---------------+---------------------+---------------+----------------+ | Trace | Total Trace | Time at Max | % of Total | | | Duration (s) | Freq (s) | Time | +---------------+---------------------+---------------+----------------+ | Base Trace | 24.72 | 9.11 | 36.9% | | Revert Trace | 22.88 | 11.92 | 52.1% | +---------------+---------------------+---------------+----------------+ *We don't know the idle periods which might happen for those frequencies I wonder if you had a fix patch for the util_est in your kernel... That fix has been recently backported to 6.6 stable [1]. You might want to try that patch as well, w/ or w/o this revert. IMHO it might be worth to have it on top. It might help the main Chrome task ('CrRendererMain') to stay longer on the biggest cpu, since the util_est would be higher. You can read the discussion that I had back then with PeterZ and VincentG [2].

[PATCH printk v2 0/2] Fix reported suspend failures

by John Ogness

This is v2 of a series to address multiple reports [0][1] (+ 2 offlist) of suspend failing when NBCON console drivers are in use. With the help of NXP and NVIDIA we were able to isolate the problem and verify the fix. v1 is here [2]. The first NBCON drivers appeared in 6.13, so currently there is no LTS kernel that requires this series. But it should go into 6.17.x and 6.18. The changes since v1: - For printk_trigger_flush() add support for all flush types that are available. This will prevent printk_trigger_flush() from trying to inappropriately queue irq_work after this series is applied. - Add WARN_ON_ONCE() to the printk irq_work queueing functions in case they are called when irq_work is blocked. There should never be (and currently are no) such callers, but these functions are externally available.

[PATCH] media: ipu6: isys: csi2: guard remote pad/subdev and zero link freq

by Alexei Safin

media_pad_remote_pad_first() may return NULL when the media link is absent or disabled. The code dereferenced remote_pad->entity unconditionally in ipu6_isys_csi2_enable_streams() and ipu6_isys_csi2_disable_streams(), leading to a possible NULL dereference. Guard the remote pad/subdev: in enable path return -ENOLINK/-ENODEV, in disable path always shut down the local stream first and return 0 if the remote side is missing. This keeps local shutdown semantics intact and prevents a crash when the graph is partially torn down. Also, ipu6_isys_csi2_calc_timing() passes link_freq into calc_timing() where it is used as a divisor. v4l2_get_link_freq() may yield 0; add an explicit check and return -EINVAL to avoid division by zero.

[PATCH REGRESSION] drm/panel: simple: restore connector_type fallback

by Ludovic Desroches

The switch from devm_kzalloc() + drm_panel_init() to devm_drm_panel_alloc() introduced a regression. Several panel descriptors do not set connector_type. For those panels, panel_simple_probe() used to compute a connector type (currently DPI as a fallback) and pass that value to drm_panel_init(). After the conversion to devm_drm_panel_alloc(), the call unconditionally used desc->connector_type instead, ignoring the computed fallback and potentially passing DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_Unknown, which drm_panel_bridge_add() does not allow. Move the connector_type validation / fallback logic before the devm_drm_panel_alloc() call and pass the computed connector_type to devm_drm_panel_alloc(), so panels without an explicit connector_type once again get the DPI default.

As a result, the old partition(s) will remain in use. You should reboot now before making further changes. "" If the partition scan is not enabled on the loop device, this flag GENHD_FL_NO_PART is getting set and when partition creation is tried, it returns an error EINVAL thereby preventing the creation of partitions. So, there is no such distinction between disabling of partition scan and partition creation. Later in 6.xxx kernels, the commit b9684a71fca7 ("block, loop: support partitions without scanning") a new flag GD_SUPPRESS_PART_SCAN was introduced that just disables the partition scan and uses GENHD_FL_NO_PART only to prevent creating partition scan. So, the partition creationg can proceed with even if partition scan is disabled. As the commit b9684a71fca7 ("block, loop: support partitions without scanning") is not available in 5.15 stable kernel, and since there is no distinction between disabling of "partition scan" and "partition creation", we need to revert the commits 1a721de8489f and 7777f47f2ea6 from 5.15 stable kernel to allow partition creation when partscan is disabled.
