2022-09-27drm/amdgpu: Add amdgpu suspend-resume code path under SRIOVBokun Zhang
- Under SRIOV, we need to send REQ_GPU_FINI to the hypervisor during the suspend time. Furthermore, we cannot request a mode 1 reset under SRIOV as VF. Therefore, we will skip it as it is called in suspend_noirq() function. - In the resume code path, we need to send REQ_GPU_INIT to the hypervisor and also resume PSP IP block under SRIOV.

2022-09-27drm/amd/display: fill in clock values when DPM is not enabledSamson Tam
[Why] For individual feature testing, PMFW may not report all clock values back. Driver will default them to 0 but this will cause the BB table to be skipped and default to one state with max clocks.

2022-09-27x86/alternative: Fix race in try_get_desc()Nadav Amit
I encountered some occasional crashes of poke_int3_handler() when kprobes are set, while accessing desc->vec. The text poke mechanism claims to have an RCU-like behavior, but it does not appear that there is any quiescent state to ensure that nobody holds reference to desc. As a result, the following race appears to be possible, which can lead to memory corruption. CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- text_poke_bp_batch() -> smp_store_release(&bp_desc, &desc) [ notice that desc is on the stack ] poke_int3_handler() [ int3 might be kprobe's so sync events are do not help ] -> try_get_desc(descp=&bp_desc) desc = __READ_ONCE(bp_desc) if (!desc) [false, success] WRITE_ONCE(bp_desc, NULL); atomic_dec_and_test(&desc.refs) [ success, desc space on the stack is being reused and might have non-zero value. ] arch_atomic_inc_not_zero(&desc->refs) [ might succeed since desc points to stack memory that was freed and might be reused. ] Fix this issue with small backportable patch. Instead of trying to make RCU-like behavior for bp_desc, just eliminate the unnecessary level of indirection of bp_desc, and hold the whole descriptor as a global. Anyhow, there is only a single descriptor at any given moment.

2022-09-27docs: admin-guide: for kernel bugs refer to other kernel documentationLukas Bulwahn
The current section 'If something goes wrong' makes a number of suggestions for debugging, bug hunting and reporting issues, which are quite briefly described in that section. However, the suggestions are also well covered in other kernel documentation or sometimes simply outdated. Here, each suggestion in that section is summarized, and then followed with its assessment, and the derived action for each suggestion: - use MAINTAINERS and mailing list: covered in 'Reporting issues', summarized in the short guide, detailed in its further section. Reporting issues even provides some specific examples that guides readers well through the needed steps. Refer to 'Reporting issues'. - contact Linus Torvalds: probably outdated as currently described. nevertheless covered in 'Reporting issues'. Reporting issues points out to contact the relevant kernel maintainers first, and after some patience and failed attempts with those maintainers, contacting Linus Torvalds might be okay. Refer to 'Reporting issues'. - tell what kernel, how to duplicate, the setup, if the problem is new or old and when did you notice: covered in 'Reporting issues', especially in Step-by-step guide how to report issues to the kernel maintainers. Refer to 'Reporting issues'. - duplicate kernel bug reports exactly: covered in 'Reporting issues', especially in Write and send the report. Refer to 'Reporting issues'. - read 'Bug hunting': keep this reference. Refer to 'Bug hunting'. - compile the kernel with CONFIG_KALLSYMS: covered in 'Reporting issues', especially in Decode failure messages. Refer to 'Reporting issues'. - alternatively, use ksymoops: ksymoops at the mentioned URL seems not to be maintained anymore. It was released roughly once a year until version 2.4.11 in 2005, but has not seen a new release since then. The information in ./scripts/ksymoops/README is from 1999, and does not give more insight on its actual maintenance state either. Ksymoops is mentioned as system utility in changes.rst, but also not recommended there. Drop the explanation on using ksymoops. - alternatively, lookup dump manually with the EIP and nm to determine the function in which the kernel crashes: this method seems already a quite advanced and low-level debugging method. Even all the further references on bug hunting and debugging do not mention it. Drop this alternative method and limit mentioning methods explained in the other existing kernel documentation. - read 'Reporting issues': keep this reference. Refer to 'Reporting issues'. - use gdb for debugging: some specific details, e.g., edit arch/x86/Makefile, are probably outdated or limited to one (historic important) setup. Using gdb is covered in 'Bug hunting', 'Debugging kernel and modules via gdb' and 'Using kgdb, kdb and the kernel debugger internals'. Refer to those three documents. Overall, it is sufficient to refer to reporting-issues.rst, bug-hunting.rst, gdb-kernel-debugging.rst and kgdb.rst and this way cover the existing suggestions. 'Reporting issues' is quite new and probably up to date. 'Bug hunting', 'Debugging kernel and modules via gdb' and 'Using kgdb, kdb and the kernel debugger internals' might need some revisit and update, but they are generally in an acceptable state for referring to them. Replace the existing suggestions by reference to other existing kernel documentation covering those suggestions---partly even nicely summarized and then explained in greater detail.

2022-09-27docs: admin-guide: do not mention the 'run a.out user programs' featureLukas Bulwahn
Running a.out user programs with the latest kernel release is a very rare and uncommon use case nowadays. The support of a.out user programs is only remaining for the alpha architecture and is not defined and activated in the architecture's Kconfig (so even the activation of this support requires to modify the Kconfig file and not just kernel build configuration). The discussion on a.out support in 2019 (see Link) shows that the support of a.out user programs is just remaining for a special corner case from some (alpha architecture) users. There is no need to point out and mention this special feature to the general audience of kernel users. Delete the reference to this historic and special feature.
