Add 'rtnl_held' flag to tcf proto change, delete, destroy, dump, walk
functions to track rtnl lock status. Extend users of these function in cls
API to propagate rtnl lock status to them. This allows classifiers to
obtain rtnl lock when necessary and to pass rtnl lock status to extensions
and driver offload callbacks.
Add flags field to tcf proto ops. Add flag value to indicate that
classifier doesn't require rtnl lock.

Add optional tp->ops->put() API to be implemented for filter reference
counting. This new function is called by cls API to release filter
reference for filters returned by tp->ops->change() or tp->ops->get()
functions. Implement tfilter_put() helper to call tp->ops->put() only for
classifiers that implement it.

Actions API is already updated to not rely on rtnl lock for
synchronization. However, it need to be provided with rtnl status when
called from classifiers API in order to be able to correctly release the
lock when loading kernel module.
Extend extension validation function with 'rtnl_held' flag which is passed
to actions API. Add new 'rtnl_held' parameter to tcf_exts_validate() in cls
API. No classifier is currently updated to support unlocked execution, so
pass hardcoded 'true' flag parameter value.

Extend tcf_chain with 'flushing' flag. Use the flag to prevent insertion of
new classifier instances when chain flushing is in progress in order to
prevent resource leak when tcf_proto is created by unlocked users
concurrently.

Implement unique insertion function to atomically attach tcf_proto to chain
after verifying that no other tcf proto with specified priority exists.
Implement delete function that verifies that tp is actually empty before
deleting it. Use these functions to refactor cls API to account for
concurrent tp and rule update instead of relying on rtnl lock. Add new
'deleting' flag to tcf proto. Use it to restart search when iterating over
tp's on chain to prevent accessing potentially inval tp->next pointer.
Extend tcf proto with spinlock that is intended to be used to protect its
data from concurrent modification instead of relying on rtnl mutex. Use it
to protect 'deleting' flag. Add lockdep macros to validate that lock is
held when accessing protected fields.

All users of chain->filters_chain rely on rtnl lock and assume that no new
classifier instances are added when traversing the list. Use
tcf_get_next_proto() to traverse filters list without relying on rtnl
mutex. This function iterates over classifiers by taking reference to
current iterator classifier only and doesn't assume external
synchronization of filters list.

In order to remove dependency on rtnl lock and allow concurrent tcf_proto
modification, extend tcf_proto with reference counter. Implement helper
get/put functions for tcf proto and use them to modify cls API to always
take reference to tcf_proto while using it. Only release reference to
parent chain after releasing last reference to tp.

Extend tcf_chain with new filter_chain_lock mutex. Always lock the chain
when accessing filter_chain list, instead of relying on rtnl lock.
Dereference filter_chain with tcf_chain_dereference() lockdep macro to
verify that all users of chain_list have the lock taken.
Rearrange tp insert/remove code in tc_new_tfilter/tc_del_tfilter to execute
all necessary code while holding chain lock in order to prevent
invalidation of chain_info structure by potential concurrent change. This
also serializes calls to tcf_chain0_head_change(), which allows head change
callbacks to rely on filter_chain_lock for synchronization instead of rtnl
mutex.

All users of block->chain_list rely on rtnl lock and assume that no new
chains are added when traversing the list. Use tcf_get_next_chain() to
traverse chain list without relying on rtnl mutex. This function iterates
over chains by taking reference to current iterator chain only and doesn't
assume external synchronization of chain list.
Don't take reference to all chains in block when flushing and use
tcf_get_next_chain() to safely iterate over chain list instead. Remove
tcf_block_put_all_chains() that is no longer used.

Currently, tcf_block doesn't use any synchronization mechanisms to protect
critical sections that manage lifetime of its chains. block->chain_list and
multiple variables in tcf_chain that control its lifetime assume external
synchronization provided by global rtnl lock. Converting chain reference
counting to atomic reference counters is not possible because cls API uses
multiple counters and flags to control chain lifetime, so all of them must
be synchronized in chain get/put code.
Use single per-block lock to protect block data and manage lifetime of all
chains on the block. Always take block->lock when accessing chain_list.
Chain get and put modify chain lifetime-management data and parent block's
chain_list, so take the lock in these functions. Verify block->lock state
with assertions in functions that expect to be called with the lock taken
and are called from multiple places. Take block->lock when accessing
filter_chain_list.
In order to allow parallel update of rules on single block, move all calls
to classifiers outside of critical sections protected by new block->lock.
Rearrange chain get and put functions code to only access protected chain
data while holding block lock:
- Rearrange code to only access chain reference counter and chain action
reference counter while holding block lock.
- Extract code that requires block->lock from tcf_chain_destroy() into
standalone tcf_chain_destroy() function that is called by
__tcf_chain_put() in same critical section that changes chain reference
counters.

Field idiag_ext in struct inet_diag_req_v2 used as bitmap of requested
extensions has only 8 bits. Thus extensions starting from DCTCPINFO
cannot be requested directly. Some of them included into response
unconditionally or hook into some of lower 8 bits.
Extension INET_DIAG_CLASS_ID has not way to request from the beginning.
This patch bundle it with INET_DIAG_TCLASS (ipv6 tos), fixes space
reservation, and documents behavior for other extensions.
Also this patch adds fallback to reporting socket priority. This filed
is more widely used for traffic classification because ipv4 sockets
automatically maps TOS to priority and default qdisc pfifo_fast knows
about that. But priority could be changed via setsockopt SO_PRIORITY so
INET_DIAG_TOS isn't enough for predicting class.
Also cgroup2 obsoletes net_cls classid (it always zero), but we cannot
reuse this field for reporting cgroup2 id because it is 64-bit (ino+gen).
So, after this patch INET_DIAG_CLASS_ID will report socket priority
for most common setup when net_cls isn't set and/or cgroup2 in use.

There are several skb_* functions where the locked and unlocked
functions are confusingly documented. For several of them, the
kernel-doc for the unlocked version is placed above the locked version,
which to the casual reader makes it seems like the locked version "takes
no locks and you must therefore hold required locks before calling it."
One can see, for example, that this link claims to document
skb_queue_head(), while instead describing __skb_queue_head().
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/kapi.html#c.skb_queue_head
The correct documentation for skb_queue_head() is also included further
down the page.
This diff tested via:

This patch adds support to compute context invoke method on the
remote processor (DSP).
This involves setting up the functions input and output arguments,
input and output handles and mapping the dmabuf fd for the
argument/handle buffers.
The below diagram depicts invocation of a single method where the
client and objects reside on different processors. An object could
expose multiple methods which can be grouped together and referred
to as an interface.
,--------, ,------, ,-----------, ,------, ,--------,
| | method | | | | | | method | |
| Client |------->| Stub |->| Transport |->| Skel |------->| Object |
| | | | | | | | | |
`--------` `------` `-----------` `------` `--------`
Client: Linux user mode process that initiates the remote invocation
Stub: Auto generated code linked in with the user mode process that
takes care of marshaling parameters
Transport: Involved in carrying an invocation from a client to an
object. This involves two portions: 1) FastRPC Linux
kernel driver that receives the remote invocation, queues
them up and then waits for the response after signaling the
remote side. 2) Service running on the remote side that
dequeues the messages from the queue and dispatches them for
processing.
Skel: Auto generated code that takes care of un-marshaling
parameters
Object: Method implementation

Commit 2db76d7c3c6d ("lib/scatterlist: sg_page_iter: support sg lists w/o
backing pages") introduced the sg_page_iter_dma_address() function without
providing a way to use it in the general case. If the sg_dma_len() is not
equal to the sg length callers cannot safely use the
for_each_sg_page/sg_page_iter_dma_address combination.
Resolve this API mistake by providing a DMA specific iterator,
for_each_sg_dma_page(), that uses the right length so
sg_page_iter_dma_address() works as expected with all sglists.
A new iterator type is introduced to provide compile-time safety against
wrongly mixing accessors and iterators.

The original MODULE_LICENSE string for kernel modules licensed under the
GPL v2 (only / or later) was simply "GPL", which was - and still is -
completely sufficient for the purpose of module loading and checking
whether the module is free software or proprietary.
In January 2003 this was changed with commit 3344ea3ad4b7 ("[PATCH]
MODULE_LICENSE and EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL support"). This commit can be found in
the history git repository which holds the 1:1 import of Linus' bitkeeper
repository:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=3344ea3ad4b7c302c846a680dbaeedf96ed45c02
The main intention of the patch was to refuse linking proprietary modules
against symbols exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() at module load time.
As a completely undocumented side effect it also introduced the distinction
between "GPL" and "GPL v2" MODULE_LICENSE() strings:
* "GPL" [GNU Public License v2 or later]
* "GPL v2" [GNU Public License v2]
* "GPL and additional rights" [GNU Public License v2 rights and more]
* "Dual BSD/GPL" [GNU Public License v2
* or BSD license choice]
* "Dual MPL/GPL" [GNU Public License v2
* or Mozilla license choice]
This distinction was and still is wrong in several aspects:
1) It broke all modules which were using the "GPL" string in the
MODULE_LICENSE() already and were licensed under GPL v2 only.
A quick license scan over the tree at that time shows that at least 480
out of 1484 modules have been affected by this change back then. The
number is probably way higher as this was just a quick check for
clearly identifiable license information.
There was exactly ONE instance of a "GPL v2" module license string in
the kernel back then - drivers/net/tulip/xircom_tulip_cb.c which
otherwise had no license information at all. There is no indication
that the change above is any way related to this driver. The change
happend with the 2.4.11 release which was on Oct. 9 2001 - so quite
some time before the above commit. Unfortunately there is no trace on
the intertubes to any discussion of this.
2) The dual licensed strings became ill defined as well because following
the "GPL" vs. "GPL v2" distinction all dual licensed (or additional
rights) MODULE_LICENSE strings would either require those dual licensed
modules to be licensed under GPL v2 or later or just be unspecified for
the dual licensing case. Neither choice is coherent with the GPL
distinction.
Due to the lack of a proper changelog and no real discussion on the patch
submission other than a few implementation details, it's completely unclear
why this distinction was introduced at all. Other than the comment in the
module header file exists no documentation for this at all.
From a license compliance and license scanning POV this distinction is a
total nightmare.
As of 5.0-rc2 2873 out of 9200 instances of MODULE_LICENSE() strings are
conflicting with the actual license in the source code (either SPDX or
license boilerplate/reference). A comparison between the scan of the
history tree and a scan of current Linus tree shows to the extent that the
git rename detection over Linus tree grafted with the history tree is
halfways complete that almost none of the files which got broken in 2003
have been cleaned up vs. the MODULE_LICENSE string. So subtracting those
480 known instances from the conflicting 2800 of today more than 25% of the
module authors got it wrong and it's a high propability that a large
portion of the rest just got it right by chance.
There is no value for the module loader to convey the detailed license
information as the only decision to be made is whether the module is free
software or not.
The "and additional rights", "BSD" and "MPL" strings are not conclusive
license information either. So there is no point in trying to make the GPL
part conclusive and exact. As shown above it's already non conclusive for
dual licensing and incoherent with a large portion of the module source.
As an unintended side effect this distinction causes a major headache for
license compliance, license scanners and the ongoing effort to clean up the
license mess of the kernel.
Therefore remove the well meant, but ill defined, distinction between "GPL"
and "GPL v2" and document that:
- "GPL" and "GPL v2" both express that the module is licensed under GPLv2
(without a distinction of 'only' and 'or later') and is therefore kernel
license compliant.
- None of the MODULE_LICENSE strings can be used for expressing or
determining the exact license
- Their sole purpose is to decide whether the module is free software or
not.
Add a MODULE_LICENSE subsection to the license rule documentation as well.

Current Switchtec's BAR setup registers are limited to 32bits,
corresponding to the maximum MW (memory window) size is <4G.
Increase the MW sizes with the addition of the BAR Setup Extension
Register for the upper 32bits of a 64bits MW size. This increases the MW
range to between 4K and 2^63.

The number of available NT req id mapping table entries per NTB control
register is 512. The driver mistakenly limits the number to 256.
Fix the array size of NT req id mapping table.

The reason is that while event init code does several checks
for BTS events and prevents several unwanted config bits for
BTS event (like precise_ip), the PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD allows
to create BTS event without those checks being done.
Following sequence will cause the crash:
If we create an 'almost' BTS event with precise_ip and callchains,
and it into a BTS event it will crash the perf_prepare_sample()
function because precise_ip events are expected to come
in with callchain data initialized, but that's not the
case for intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer() caller.
Adding a check_period callback to be called before the period
is changed via PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD. It will deny the change
if the event would become BTS. Plus adding also the limit_period
check as well.

Move io-pgtable.h to include/linux/ and export alloc_io_pgtable_ops
and free_io_pgtable_ops. This enables drivers outside drivers/iommu/ to
use the page table library. Specifically, some ARM Mali GPUs use the
ARM page table formats.

If the GHES notification type is SDEI, register the provided event
using the SDEI-GHES helper.
SDEI may be one of two types of event, normal and critical. Critical
events can interrupt normal events, so these must have separate
fixmap slots and locks in case both event types are in use.

APEI's Generic Hardware Error Source structures do not describe
whether the SDEI event is shared or private, as this information is
discoverable via the API.
GHES needs to know whether an event is normal or critical to avoid
sharing locks or fixmap entries, but GHES shouldn't have to know about
the SDEI API.
Add a helper to register the GHES using the appropriate normal or
critical callback.
