pcim_iomap_regions() should receive the driver's name as its third

Define the driver name with a macro and use it at the appropriate
places, including pcim_iomap_regions().

The order in which queue->cmd and rcv_state are updated is crucial.
If these assignments are reordered by the compiler, the worker might not
get queued in nvmet_tcp_queue_response(), hanging the IO. to enforce the
the correct reordering, set rcv_state using smp_store_release().

nvme_tcp_recv_pdu() doesn't check the validity of the header length.
When header digests are enabled, a target might send a packet with an
invalid header length (e.g. 255), causing nvme_tcp_verify_hdgst()
to access memory outside the allocated area and cause memory corruptions
by overwriting it with the calculated digest.
Fix this by rejecting packets with an unexpected header length.

The fprobe test fails on Fedora 41 since the fprobe test assumption that
the number of enabled_functions is zero before the test starts is not
necessarily true. Some user space tools, like systemd, add BPF programs
that attach to functions. Those will show up in the enabled_functions table
and must be taken into account by the fprobe test.
Therefore count the number of lines of enabled_functions before tests
start, and use that as base when comparing expected results.

The next time a hist with name is registered, it causes an u-a-f bug and

Move the code around such that if event_trigger_register() succeeds, the
next thing called is hist_trigger_enable() which adds it to the list.
A bunch of actions is called if get_named_trigger_data() returns false.
But that doesn't need to be called after event_trigger_register(), so it
can be moved up, allowing event_trigger_register() to be called just
before hist_trigger_enable() keeping them together and allowing the
file->triggers to be properly populated.

The first GDT descriptor is reserved as 'NULL descriptor'. As bits 0
and 1 of a segment selector, i.e., the RPL bits, are NOT used to index
GDT, selector values 0~3 all point to the NULL descriptor, thus values
0, 1, 2 and 3 are all valid NULL selector values.
When a NULL selector value is to be loaded into a segment register,
reload_segments() sets its RPL bits. Later IRET zeros ES, FS, GS, and
DS segment registers if any of them is found to have any nonzero NULL
selector value. The two operations offset each other to actually effect
a nop.
Besides, zeroing of RPL in NULL selector values is an information leak
in pre-FRED systems as userspace can spot any interrupt/exception by
loading a nonzero NULL selector, and waiting for it to become zero.
But there is nothing software can do to prevent it before FRED.
ERETU, the only legit instruction to return to userspace from kernel
under FRED, by design does NOT zero any segment register to avoid this
problem behavior.
As such, leave NULL selector values 0~3 unchanged and close the leak.
Do the same on 32-bit kernel as well.

Raspberry Pi is a major user of those chips and they discovered a bug -
when the end of a transfer ring segment is reached, up to four TRBs can
be prefetched from the next page even if the segment ends with link TRB
and on page boundary (the chip claims to support standard 4KB pages).
It also appears that if the prefetched TRBs belong to a different ring
whose doorbell is later rung, they may be used without refreshing from
system RAM and the endpoint will stay idle if their cycle bit is stale.
Other users complain about IOMMU faults on x86 systems, unsurprisingly.
Deal with it by using existing quirk which allocates a dummy page after
each transfer ring segment. This was seen to resolve both problems. RPi
came up with a more efficient solution, shortening each segment by four
TRBs, but it complicated the driver and they ditched it for this quirk.
Also rename the quirk and add VL805 device ID macro.

David reported a warning observed while loop testing kexec jump:
Interrupts enabled after irqrouter_resume+0x0/0x50
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 560 at drivers/base/syscore.c:103 syscore_resume+0x18a/0x220
kernel_kexec+0xf6/0x180
__do_sys_reboot+0x206/0x250
do_syscall_64+0x95/0x180
The corresponding interrupt flag trace:
hardirqs last enabled at (15573): [<ffffffffa8281b8e>] __up_console_sem+0x7e/0x90
hardirqs last disabled at (15580): [<ffffffffa8281b73>] __up_console_sem+0x63/0x90
That means __up_console_sem() was invoked with interrupts enabled. Further
instrumentation revealed that in the interrupt disabled section of kexec
jump one of the syscore_suspend() callbacks woke up a task, which set the
NEED_RESCHED flag. A later callback in the resume path invoked
cond_resched() which in turn led to the invocation of the scheduler:
__cond_resched+0x21/0x60
down_timeout+0x18/0x60
acpi_os_wait_semaphore+0x4c/0x80
acpi_ut_acquire_mutex+0x3d/0x100

kernel_kexec+0x145/0x1c0
__do_sys_reboot+0xeb/0x240
do_syscall_64+0x95/0x180
This is a long standing problem, which probably got more visible with
the recent printk changes. Something does a task wakeup and the
scheduler sets the NEED_RESCHED flag. cond_resched() sees it set and
invokes schedule() from a completely bogus context. The scheduler
enables interrupts after context switching, which causes the above
warning at the end.
Quite some of the code paths in syscore_suspend()/resume() can result in
triggering a wakeup with the exactly same consequences. They might not
have done so yet, but as they share a lot of code with normal operations
it's just a question of time.
The problem only affects the PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY scheduling
models. Full preemption is not affected as cond_resched() is disabled and
the preemption check preemptible() takes the interrupt disabled flag into
account.
Cure the problem by adding a corresponding check into cond_resched().

percpu addresses went from positive offsets from the GSBASE to negative
kernel virtual addresses. The BPF verifier has an optimization for
x86-64 that loads the address of cpu_number into a register, but was only
doing a 32-bit load which truncates negative addresses.
Change it to a 64-bit load so that the address is properly sign-extended.

commit c910f2b65518 ("arm64/mm: Update tlb invalidation routines for
FEAT_LPA2") changed the "invalidation level unknown" hint from 0 to
TLBI_TTL_UNKNOWN (INT_MAX). But the fallback "unknown level" path in
flush_hugetlb_tlb_range() was not updated. So as it stands, when trying
to invalidate CONT_PMD_SIZE or CONT_PTE_SIZE hugetlb mappings, we will
spuriously try to invalidate at level 0 on LPA2-enabled systems.
Fix this so that the fallback passes TLBI_TTL_UNKNOWN, and while we are
at it, explicitly use the correct stride and level for CONT_PMD_SIZE and
CONT_PTE_SIZE, which should provide a minor optimization.

arm64 supports multiple huge_pte sizes. Some of the sizes are covered by
a single pte entry at a particular level (PMD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE), and some
are covered by multiple ptes at a particular level (CONT_PTE_SIZE,
CONT_PMD_SIZE). So the function has to figure out the size from the
huge_pte pointer. This was previously done by walking the pgtable to
determine the level and by using the PTE_CONT bit to determine the
number of ptes at the level.
But the PTE_CONT bit is only valid when the pte is present. For
non-present pte values (e.g. markers, migration entries), the previous
implementation was therefore erroneously determining the size. There is
at least one known caller in core-mm, move_huge_pte(), which may call
huge_ptep_get_and_clear() for a non-present pte. So we must be robust to
this case. Additionally the "regular" ptep_get_and_clear() is robust to
being called for non-present ptes so it makes sense to follow the
behavior.
Fix this by using the new sz parameter which is now provided to the
function. Additionally when clearing each pte in a contig range, don't
gather the access and dirty bits if the pte is not present.
An alternative approach that would not require API changes would be to
store the PTE_CONT bit in a spare bit in the swap entry pte for the
non-present case. But it felt cleaner to follow other APIs' lead and
just pass in the size.
As an aside, PTE_CONT is bit 52, which corresponds to bit 40 in the swap
entry offset field (layout of non-present pte). Since hugetlb is never
swapped to disk, this field will only be populated for markers, which
always set this bit to 0 and hwpoison swap entries, which set the offset
field to a PFN; So it would only ever be 1 for a 52-bit PVA system where
memory in that high half was poisoned (I think!). So in practice, this
bit would almost always be zero for non-present ptes and we would only
clear the first entry if it was actually a contiguous block. That's
probably a less severe symptom than if it was always interpreted as 1
and cleared out potentially-present neighboring PTEs.

In order to fix a bug, arm64 needs to be told the size of the huge page
for which the huge_pte is being cleared in huge_ptep_get_and_clear().
Provide for this by adding an `unsigned long sz` parameter to the
function. This follows the same pattern as huge_pte_clear() and
set_huge_pte_at().
This commit makes the required interface modifications to the core mm as
well as all arches that implement this function (arm64, loongarch, mips,
parisc, powerpc, riscv, s390, sparc). The actual arm64 bug will be fixed
in a separate commit.

Currently, when validating the mokvar table, we (re)map the entire table
on each iteration of the loop, adding space as we discover new entries.
If the table grows over a certain size, this fails due to limitations of
early_memmap(), and we get a failure and traceback:

Mapping the entire structure isn't actually necessary, as we don't ever
need more than one entry header mapped at once.
Changes efi_mokvar_table_init() to only map each entry header, not the
entire table, when determining the table size. Since we're not mapping
any data past the variable name, it also changes the code to enforce
that each variable name is NUL terminated, rather than attempting to

Some drivers, like tg3, do not set combined-count:
$ ethtool -l enp4s0f1
Channel parameters for enp4s0f1:
Pre-set maximums:
RX: 4
TX: 4
Other: n/a
Combined: n/a
Current hardware settings:
RX: 4
TX: 1
Other: n/a
Combined: n/a
In the case where combined-count is not set, the ethtool netlink code
in the kernel elides the value and the code in the test:
netnl.channels_get(...)
With a tg3 device, the returned dictionary looks like:
{'header': {'dev-index': 3, 'dev-name': 'enp4s0f1'},
'rx-max': 4,
'rx-count': 4,
'tx-max': 4,
'tx-count': 1}
Note that the key 'combined-count' is missing. As a result of this
missing key the test raises an exception:
# Exception| if channels['combined-count'] == 0:
# Exception| ~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
# Exception| KeyError: 'combined-count'
Change the test to check if 'combined-count' is a key in the dictionary
first and if not assume that this means the driver has separate RX and
TX queues.
With this change, the test now passes successfully on tg3 and mlx5
(which does have a 'combined-count').

====================
fixes for seg6 and rpl lwtunnels on input
As a follow up to commit 92191dd10730 ("net: ipv6: fix dst ref loops in
rpl, seg6 and ioam6 lwtunnels"), we also need a conditional dst cache on
input for seg6_iptunnel and rpl_iptunnel to prevent dst ref loops (i.e.,
if the packet destination did not change, we may end up recording a
reference to the lwtunnel in its own cache, and the lwtunnel state will
never be freed). This series provides a fix to respectively prevent a
dst ref loop on input in seg6_iptunnel and rpl_iptunnel.

get_this_hybrid_cpu_type() misses a case when cpu-type is populated
regardless of X86_FEATURE_HYBRID_CPU. This is particularly true for hybrid
variants that have P or E cores fused off.
Instead use the cpu-type cached in struct x86_topology, as it does not rely
on hybrid feature to enumerate cpu-type. This can also help avoid the
model-specific fixup get_hybrid_cpu_type(). Also replace the
get_this_hybrid_cpu_native_id() with its cached value in struct
x86_topology.
While at it, remove enum hybrid_cpu_type as it serves no purpose when we
have the exact cpu-types defined in enum intel_cpu_type. Also rename
atom_native_id to intel_native_id and move it to intel-family.h where
intel_cpu_type lives.

Syzbot reports [1] a warning in usb_submit_urb() triggered by
inconsistencies between expected and actually present endpoints
in gl620a driver. Since genelink_bind() does not properly
verify whether specified eps are in fact provided by the device,
in this case, an artificially manufactured one, one may get a
mismatch.
Fix the issue by resorting to a usbnet utility function
usbnet_get_endpoints(), usually reserved for this very problem.
Check for endpoints and return early before proceeding further if
any are missing.

Temporarily allow the creation of zero length files in efivarfs so the
'fwupd' user space firmware update tool can continue to operate. This
hack should be reverted as soon as the fwupd mechanisms for updating
firmware have been fixed.
fwupd has been coded to open a firmware file, close it, remove the
immutable bit and write to it. Since commit 908af31f4896 ("efivarfs:
fix error on write to new variable leaving remnants") this behaviour
results in the first close removing the file which causes the second
write to fail. To allow fwupd to keep working code up an indicator of
size 1 if a write fails and only remove the file on that condition (so
create at zero size is allowed).

The CONFIG_EISA menu was cleaned up in 2018, but this inadvertently
brought the option back on 64-bit machines: ISA remains guarded by
a CONFIG_X86_32 check, but EISA no longer depends on ISA.
The last Intel machines ith EISA support used a 82375EB PCI/EISA bridge
from 1993 that could be paired with the 440FX chipset on early Pentium-II
CPUs, long before the first x86-64 products.

ST ConneXt STA2x11 was an interface chip for Atom E6xx processors,
using a number of components usually found on Arm SoCs. Most of this
was merged upstream, but it was never complete enough to actually work
and has been abandoned for many years.
We already had an agreement on removing it in 2022, but nobody ever
submitted the patch to do it.
Without STA2x11, CONFIG_X86_32_NON_STANDARD no longer has any

The X86_INTEL_MID code was originally introduced for the 32-bit
Moorestown/Medfield/Clovertrail platform, later the 64-bit
Merrifield/Moorefield variants were added, but the final Morganfield
14nm platform was canceled before it hit the market.
To help users understand what the option actually refers to, update the
help text, and add a dependency on 64-bit kernels.
Ferry confirmed that all the hardware can run 64-bit kernels these days,
but is still testing 32-bit kernels on the Intel Edison board, so this
remains possible, but is guarded by a CONFIG_EXPERT dependency now,
to gently push remaining users towards using CONFIG_64BIT.

HIGHMEM64G support was added in linux-2.3.25 to support (then)
high-end Pentium Pro and Pentium III Xeon servers with more than 4GB of
addressing, NUMA and PCI-X slots started appearing.
I have found no evidence of this ever being used in regular dual-socket
servers or consumer devices, all the users seem obsolete these days,
even by i386 standards:
- Support for NUMA servers (NUMA-Q, IBM x440, unisys) was already
removed ten years ago.
- 4+ socket non-NUMA servers based on Intel 450GX/450NX, HP F8 and
ServerWorks ServerSet/GrandChampion could theoretically still work
with 8GB, but these were exceptionally rare even 20 years ago and
would have usually been equipped with than the maximum amount of
RAM.
- Some SKUs of the Celeron D from 2004 had 64-bit mode fused off but
could still work in a Socket 775 mainboard designed for the later
Core 2 Duo and 8GB. Apparently most BIOSes at the time only allowed
64-bit CPUs.
- The rare Xeon LV "Sossaman" came on a few motherboards with
registered DDR2 memory support up to 16GB.
- In the early days of x86-64 hardware, there was sometimes the need
to run a 32-bit kernel to work around bugs in the hardware drivers,
or in the syscall emulation for 32-bit userspace. This likely still
works but there should never be a need for this any more.
PAE mode is still required to get access to the 'NX' bit on Atom
'Pentium M' and 'Core Duo' CPUs.

The x86 CPU selection menu is confusing for a number of reasons:
When configuring 32-bit kernels, it shows a small number of early 64-bit
microarchitectures (K8, Core 2) but not the regular generic 64-bit target
that is the normal default. There is no longer a reason to run 32-bit
kernels on production 64-bit systems, so only actual 32-bit CPUs need
to be shown here.
When configuring 64-bit kernels, the options also pointless as there is
no way to pick any CPU from the past 15 years, leaving GENERIC_CPU as
the only sensible choice.
Address both of the above by removing the obsolete options and making
all 64-bit kernels run on both Intel and AMD CPUs from any generation.
Testing generic 32-bit kernels on 64-bit hardware remains possible,
just not building a 32-bit kernel that requires a 64-bit CPU.

Building an x86-64 kernel with CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU is documented to
run on all CPUs, but the Makefile does not actually pass an -march=
argument, instead relying on the default that was used to configure
the toolchain.
In many cases, gcc will be configured to -march=x86-64 or -march=k8
for maximum compatibility, but in other cases a distribution default
may be either raised to a more recent ISA, or set to -march=native
to build for the CPU used for compilation. This still works in the
case of building a custom kernel for the local machine.
The point where it breaks down is building a kernel for another
machine that is older the the default target. Changing the default
to -march=x86-64 would make it work reliable, but possibly produce
worse code on distros that intentionally default to a newer ISA.
To allow reliably building a kernel for either the oldest x86-64
CPUs, pass the -march=x86-64 flag to the compiler. This was not
possible in early versions of x86-64 gcc, but works on all currently
supported versions down to at least gcc-5.
