Subject: iio: adc: rzg2l: Cleanup suspend/resume path
There is no need to manually track the runtime PM status in the driver.
The pm_runtime_force_suspend() and pm_runtime_force_resume() functions
already call pm_runtime_status_suspended() to check the runtime PM state.
Additionally, avoid calling pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() during the
suspend/resume path, as this would decrease the usage counter of a
potential user that had the ADC open before the suspend/resume cycle.

Subject: iio: adc: rzg2l_adc: Set driver data before enabling runtime PM
When stress-testing the system by repeatedly unbinding and binding the ADC
device in a loop, and the ADC is a supplier for another device (e.g., a
thermal hardware block that reads temperature through the ADC), it may
happen that the ADC device is runtime-resumed immediately after runtime PM
is enabled, triggered by its consumer. At this point, since drvdata is not
yet set and the driver's runtime PM callbacks rely on it, a crash can
occur. To avoid this, set drvdata just after it was allocated.

Subject: iio: adc: bd79124: Add GPIOLIB dependency
The bd79124 has ADC inputs which can be muxed to be GPIOs. The driver
supports this by registering a GPIO-chip for channels which aren't used
as ADC.
The Kconfig entry does not handle the dependency to GPIOLIB, which
causes errors:
ERROR: modpost: "devm_gpiochip_add_data_with_key" [drivers/iio/adc/rohm-bd79124.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "gpiochip_get_data" [drivers/iio/adc/rohm-bd79124.ko] undefined!
at linking phase if GPIOLIB is not configured to be used.
Fix this by adding dependency to the GPIOLIB.

Fix possible incorrect channel lookup in the syscalib functions by using
the correct channel address instead of the channel number.
In the ad7124 driver, the channel field of struct iio_chan_spec is the
input pin number of the positive input of the channel. This can be, but
is not always the same as the index in the channels array. The correct
index in the channels array is stored in the address field (and also
scan_index). We use the address field to perform the correct lookup.

Fix passing a u32 value as a u16 buffer scan item. This works on little-
endian systems, but not on big-endian systems.
A new local variable is introduced for getting the register value and
the array is changed to a struct to make the data layout more explicit
rather than just changing the type and having to recalculate the proper
length needed for the timestamp.

iio: adc: ad7173: prevent scan if too many setups requested
to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: adc: ad7173: prevent scan if too many setups requested
Add a check to ad7173_update_scan_mode() to ensure that we didn't exceed
the maximum number of unique channel configurations.
In the AD7173 family of chips, there are some chips that have 16
CHANNELx registers but only 8 setups (combination of CONFIGx, FILTERx,
GAINx and OFFSETx registers). Since commit 92c247216918 ("iio: adc:
ad7173: fix num_slots"), it is possible to have more than 8 channels
enabled in a scan at the same time, so it is possible to get a bad
configuration when more than 8 channels are using unique configurations.
This happens because the algorithm to allocate the setup slots only
takes into account which slot has been least recently used and doesn't
know about the maximum number of slots available.
Since the algorithm to allocate the setup slots is quite complex, it is
simpler to check after the fact if the current state is valid or not.
So this patch adds a check in ad7173_update_scan_mode() after setting up
all of the configurations to make sure that the actual setup still
matches the requested setup for each enabled channel. If not, we prevent
the scan from being enabled and return an error.
The setup comparison in ad7173_setup_equal() is refactored to a separate
function since we need to call it in two places now.

2.50.1
The Cadence PCIe Controller integrated in the TI K3 SoCs supports both
Root-Complex and Endpoint modes of operation. The Glue Layer allows
"strapping" the mode of operation of the Controller, the Link Speed
and the Link Width. This is enabled by programming the "PCIEn_CTRL"
register (n corresponds to the PCIe instance) within the CTRL_MMR
memory-mapped register space.
In the PCIe Controller's register space, the same set of registers
that correspond to the Root-Port configuration space when the
Controller is configured for Root-Complex mode of operation, also
correspond to the Physical Function configuration space when the
Controller is configured for Endpoint mode of operation. As a result,
the "reset-value" of these set of registers _should_ vary depending
on the selected mode of operation. This is the expected behavior
according to the description of the registers and their reset values
in the Technical Reference Manual for the SoCs.
However, it is observed that the "reset-value" seen in practice
do not match the description. To be precise, when the Controller
is configured for Root-Complex mode of operation, the "reset-value"
of the Root-Port configuration space reflect the "reset-value"
corresponding to the Physical Function configuration space.
This can be attributed to the fact that the "strap" settings play
a role in "switching" the "reset-value" of the registers to match
the expected values as determined by the selected mode of operation.
Since the "strap" settings are sampled the moment the PCIe Controller
is powered ON, the "reset-value" of the registers are setup at that
point in time. As a result, if the "strap" settings are programmed
at a later point in time, it _will not_ update the "reset-value" of
the registers. This will cause the Physical Function configuration
space to be seen when the Root-Port configuration space is accessed
after programming the PCIe Controller for Root-Complex mode of
operation.
Fix this by powering off the PCIe Controller before programming the
"strap" settings and powering it on after that. This will ensure
that the "strap" settings that have been sampled convey the intended
mode of operation, thereby resulting in the "reset-value" of the
registers being accurate.

2.43.0
From: Chen Junlin <chen.junlin(a)zte.com.cn>
Although the upstream commit 2b0f2fc9ed62 ("Bluetooth: hci_conn:
Use disable_delayed_work_sync") has fixed the issue CVE-2024-56591, that
patch depends on the implementaion of disable/enable_work() of workqueue
[1], which are merged into 6.9/6.10 and so on. But for branch linux-6.6,
there's no these feature of workqueue.
To solve CVE-2024-56591 without backport too many feature patches about
workqueue, we can set a new flag HCI_CONN_DELETE when hci_conn_dell() is
called, and the subsequent queuing of work will be ignored.

Registering userfaultd on a VMA that spans at least one PMD and then
mremap()'ing that VMA can trigger a WARN when recovering from a failed
page table move due to a page table allocation error.
The code ends up doing the right thing (recurse, avoiding moving actual
page tables), but triggering that WARN is unpleasant:

</TASK>
The underlying issue is that we recurse during the original page table
move, but not during the recovery move.
Fix it by checking for both VMAs and performing the check before the
pmd_none() sanity check.
Add a new helper where we perform+document that check for the PMD and PUD
level.
Thanks to Harry for bisecting.

Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2025 10:51:16 +0900
Current damos_commit_filter() does not persist the `allow' value of the
filter. As a result, changing the `allow' value of a filter and
committing doesn't change the `allow' value.
Add the missing `allow' value update, so committing the filter
persistently changes the `allow' value well.

Subject: mm/memory-failure: fix infinite UCE for VM_PFNMAP pfn
Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2025 15:32:09 +0800
When memory_failure() is called for a already hwpoisoned pfn,
kill_accessing_process() will be called to kill current task. However, if
the vma of the accessing vaddr is VM_PFNMAP, walk_page_range() will skip
the vma in walk_page_test() and return 0.
Before commit aaf99ac2ceb7 ("mm/hwpoison: do not send SIGBUS to processes
with recovered clean pages"), kill_accessing_process() will return EFAULT.
For x86, the current task will be killed in kill_me_maybe().
However, after this commit, kill_accessing_process() simplies return 0,
that means UCE is handled properly, but it doesn't actually. In such
case, the user task will trigger UCE infinitely.
To fix it, add .test_walk callback for hwpoison_walk_ops to scan all vmas.

Subject: iov_iter: iterate_folioq: fix handling of offset >= folio size
Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2025 15:04:55 +0900
It's apparently possible to get an iov advanced all the way up to the end
of the current page we're looking at, e.g.
(gdb) p *iter
$24 = {iter_type = 4 '\004', nofault = false, data_source = false, iov_offset = 4096, {__ubuf_iovec = {
iov_base = 0xffff88800f5bc000, iov_len = 655}, {{__iov = 0xffff88800f5bc000, kvec = 0xffff88800f5bc000,
bvec = 0xffff88800f5bc000, folioq = 0xffff88800f5bc000, xarray = 0xffff88800f5bc000,
ubuf = 0xffff88800f5bc000}, count = 655}}, {nr_segs = 2, folioq_slot = 2 '\002', xarray_start = 2}}
Where iov_offset is 4k with 4k-sized folios
This should have been fine because we're only in the 2nd slot and there's
another one after this, but iterate_folioq should not try to map a folio
that skips the whole size, and more importantly part here does not end up
zero (because 'PAGE_SIZE - skip % PAGE_SIZE' ends up PAGE_SIZE and not
zero..), so skip forward to the "advance to next folio" code

Subject: mm/damon/core: fix commit_ops_filters by using correct nth function
Date: Sun, 10 Aug 2025 21:42:01 +0900
damos_commit_ops_filters() incorrectly uses damos_nth_filter() which
iterates core_filters. As a result, performing a commit unintentionally
corrupts ops_filters.
Add damos_nth_ops_filter() which iterates ops_filters. Use this function
to fix issues caused by wrong iteration.

Subject: mm/debug_vm_pgtable: clear page table entries at destroy_args()
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2025 18:40:51 -0300
The mm/debug_vm_pagetable test allocates manually page table entries for
the tests it runs, using also its manually allocated mm_struct. That in
itself is ok, but when it exits, at destroy_args() it fails to clear those
entries with the *_clear functions.
The problem is that leaves stale entries. If another process allocates an
mm_struct with a pgd at the same address, it may end up running into the
stale entry. This is happening in practice on a debug kernel with
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE=y, for example this is the output with some extra
debugging I added (it prints a warning trace if pgtables_bytes goes
negative, in addition to the warning at check_mm() function):

[ 2.559022] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:000000002267cc9e type:MM_ANONPAGES val:1
[ 2.559037] BUG: non-zero pgtables_bytes on freeing mm: -6144
Here the modprobe process ended up with an allocated mm_struct from the
mm_struct slab that was used before by the debug_vm_pgtable test. That is
not a problem, since the mm_struct is initialized again etc., however, if
it ends up using the same pgd table, it bumps into the old stale entry
when clearing/freeing the page table entries, so it tries to free an entry
already gone (that one which was allocated by the debug_vm_pgtable test),
which also explains the negative pgtables_bytes since it's accounting for
not allocated entries in the current process.
As far as I looked pgd_{alloc,free} etc. does not clear entries, and
clearing of the entries is explicitly done in the free_pgtables->
free_pgd_range->free_p4d_range->free_pud_range->free_pmd_range->
free_pte_range path. However, the debug_vm_pgtable test does not call
free_pgtables, since it allocates mm_struct and entries manually for its
test and eg. not goes through page faults. So it also should clear
manually the entries before exit at destroy_args().
This problem was noticed on a reboot X number of times test being done on
a powerpc host, with a debug kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE enabled.
Depends on the system, but on a 100 times reboot loop the problem could
manifest once or twice, if a process ends up getting the right mm->pgd
entry with the stale entries used by mm/debug_vm_pagetable. After using
this patch, I couldn't reproduce/experience the problems anymore. I was
able to reproduce the problem as well on latest upstream kernel (6.16).
I also modified destroy_args() to use mmput() instead of mmdrop(), there
is no reason to hold mm_users reference and not release the mm_struct
entirely, and in the output above with my debugging prints I already had
patched it to use mmput, it did not fix the problem, but helped in the
debugging as well.

If sb_min_blocksize returns 0, squashfs_fill_super exits without freeing
allocated memory (sb->s_fs_info).
Fix this by moving the call to sb_min_blocksize to before memory is
allocated.

During boot scratch area is allocated based on command line parameters or
auto calculated. However, scratch area may fail to allocate, and in that
case KHO is disabled. Currently, no warning is printed that KHO is
disabled, which makes it confusing for the end user to figure out why KHO
is not available. Add the missing warning message.

KHO uses struct pages for the preserved memory early in boot, however,
with deferred struct page initialization, only a small portion of memory
has properly initialized struct pages.
This problem was detected where vmemmap is poisoned, and illegal flag
combinations are detected.
Don't allow them to be enabled together, and later we will have to teach
KHO to work properly with deferred struct page init kernel feature.

Subject: x86/mm/64: define ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK and arch_sync_kernel_mappings()
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2025 11:02:06 +0900
Define ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() to ensure
page tables are properly synchronized when calling p*d_populate_kernel().
For 5-level paging, synchronization is performed via
pgd_populate_kernel(). In 4-level paging, pgd_populate() is a no-op, so
synchronization is instead performed at the P4D level via
p4d_populate_kernel().
This fixes intermittent boot failures on systems using 4-level paging and
a large amount of persistent memory:

Subject: mm: introduce and use {pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel()
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2025 11:02:05 +0900
Introduce and use {pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel() in core MM code when
populating PGD and P4D entries for the kernel address space. These
helpers ensure proper synchronization of page tables when updating the
kernel portion of top-level page tables.
Until now, the kernel has relied on each architecture to handle
synchronization of top-level page tables in an ad-hoc manner. For
example, see commit 9b861528a801 ("x86-64, mem: Update all PGDs for direct
mapping and vmemmap mapping changes").
However, this approach has proven fragile for following reasons:
1) It is easy to forget to perform the necessary page table
synchronization when introducing new changes.
For instance, commit 4917f55b4ef9 ("mm/sparse-vmemmap: improve memory
savings for compound devmaps") overlooked the need to synchronize
page tables for the vmemmap area.
2) It is also easy to overlook that the vmemmap and direct mapping areas
must not be accessed before explicit page table synchronization.
For example, commit 8d400913c231 ("x86/vmemmap: handle unpopulated
sub-pmd ranges")) caused crashes by accessing the vmemmap area
before calling sync_global_pgds().
To address this, as suggested by Dave Hansen, introduce _kernel() variants
of the page table population helpers, which invoke architecture-specific
hooks to properly synchronize page tables. These are introduced in a new
header file, include/linux/pgalloc.h, so they can be called from common
code.
They reuse existing infrastructure for vmalloc and ioremap.
Synchronization requirements are determined by ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK,
and the actual synchronization is performed by
arch_sync_kernel_mappings().
This change currently targets only x86_64, so only PGD and P4D level
helpers are introduced. Currently, these helpers are no-ops since no
architecture sets PGTBL_{PGD,P4D}_MODIFIED in ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK.
In theory, PUD and PMD level helpers can be added later if needed by other
architectures. For now, 32-bit architectures (x86-32 and arm) only handle
PGTBL_PMD_MODIFIED, so p*d_populate_kernel() will never affect them unless
we introduce a PMD level helper.

Subject: mm: move page table sync declarations to linux/pgtable.h
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2025 11:02:04 +0900
During our internal testing, we started observing intermittent boot
failures when the machine uses 4-level paging and has a large amount of
persistent memory:

It turns out that the kernel panics while initializing vmemmap (struct
page array) when the vmemmap region spans two PGD entries, because the new
PGD entry is only installed in init_mm.pgd, but not in the page tables of
other tasks.
And looking at __populate_section_memmap():
if (vmemmap_can_optimize(altmap, pgmap))
// does not sync top level page tables
r = vmemmap_populate_compound_pages(pfn, start, end, nid, pgmap);
else
// sync top level page tables in x86
r = vmemmap_populate(start, end, nid, altmap);
In the normal path, vmemmap_populate() in arch/x86/mm/init_64.c
synchronizes the top level page table (See commit 9b861528a801 ("x86-64,
mem: Update all PGDs for direct mapping and vmemmap mapping changes")) so
that all tasks in the system can see the new vmemmap area.
However, when vmemmap_can_optimize() returns true, the optimized path
skips synchronization of top-level page tables. This is because
vmemmap_populate_compound_pages() is implemented in core MM code, which
does not handle synchronization of the top-level page tables. Instead,
the core MM has historically relied on each architecture to perform this
synchronization manually.
We're not the first party to encounter a crash caused by not-sync'd top
level page tables: earlier this year, Gwan-gyeong Mun attempted to address
the issue [1] [2] after hitting a kernel panic when x86 code accessed the
vmemmap area before the corresponding top-level entries were synced. At
that time, the issue was believed to be triggered only when struct page
was enlarged for debugging purposes, and the patch did not get further
updates.
It turns out that current approach of relying on each arch to handle the
page table sync manually is fragile because 1) it's easy to forget to sync
the top level page table, and 2) it's also easy to overlook that the
kernel should not access the vmemmap and direct mapping areas before the
sync.
# The solution: Make page table sync more code robust and harder to miss
To address this, Dave Hansen suggested [3] [4] introducing
{pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel() for updating kernel portion of the page tables
and allow each architecture to explicitly perform synchronization when
installing top-level entries. With this approach, we no longer need to
worry about missing the sync step, reducing the risk of future
regressions.
The new interface reuses existing ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK,
PGTBL_P*D_MODIFIED and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() facility used by
vmalloc and ioremap to synchronize page tables.
pgd_populate_kernel() looks like this:
static inline void pgd_populate_kernel(unsigned long addr, pgd_t *pgd,
p4d_t *p4d)
{
pgd_populate(&init_mm, pgd, p4d);
if (ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK & PGTBL_PGD_MODIFIED)
arch_sync_kernel_mappings(addr, addr);
}
It is worth noting that vmalloc() and apply_to_range() carefully
synchronizes page tables by calling p*d_alloc_track() and
arch_sync_kernel_mappings(), and thus they are not affected by this patch
series.
This series was hugely inspired by Dave Hansen's suggestion and hence
added Suggested-by: Dave Hansen.
Cc stable because lack of this series opens the door to intermittent
boot failures.
This patch (of 3):
Move ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() to
linux/pgtable.h so that they can be used outside of vmalloc and ioremap.

During the integration of the RTL8239 POE chip + its frontend MCU, it was
noticed that multi-byte operations were basically broken in the current
driver.
Tests using SMBus Block Writes showed that the data (after the Wr maker +
Ack) was mixed up on the wire. At first glance, it looked like an
endianness problem. But for transfers where the number of count + data
bytes was not divisible by 4, the last bytes were not looking like an
endianness problem because they were in the wrong order but not for example
0 - which would be the case for an endianness problem with 32 bit
registers. At the end, it turned out to be the way how i2c_write tried to
add the bytes to the send registers.
Each 32 bit register was used similar to a shift register - shifting the
various bytes up the register while the next one is added to the least
significant byte. But the I2C controller expects the first byte of the
transmission in the least significant byte of the first register. And the
last byte (assuming it is a 16 byte transfer) is expected in the most
significant byte of the fourth register.
While doing these tests, it was also observed that the count byte was
missing from the SMBus Block Writes. The driver just removed them from the
data->block (from the I2C subsystem). But the I2C controller DOES NOT
automatically add this byte - for example by using the configured
transmission length.
The RTL8239 MCU is not actually an SMBus compliant device. Instead, it
expects I2C Block Reads + I2C Block Writes. But according to the already
identified bugs in the driver, it was clear that the I2C controller can
simply be modified to not send the count byte for I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA.
The receive part just needs to write the content of the receive buffer to
the correct position in data->block.
While the on-wire format was now correct, reads were still not possible
against the MCU (for the RTL8239 POE chip). It was always timing out
because the 2ms were not enough for sending the read request and then
receiving the 12 byte answer.
These changes were originally submitted to OpenWrt. But there are plans to
migrate OpenWrt to the upstream Linux driver. As a result, the pull request
was stopped and the changes were redone against this driver.
For reasons of transparency: The work on I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA support
for the RTL8239-MCU was done on RTL931xx. All problems were therefore
detected with the patches from Jonas Jelonek [1] and not the vanilla Linux
driver. But looking through the code, it seems like these are NOT
regressions introduced by the RTL931x patchset.
I've picked up Alex Guo's patch [2] to reduce conflicts between pending
fixes.
