Pull pwm fixes from Uwe Kleine-König:
"Two fixes.
Conor Dooley found and fixed a problem in the pwm-microchip-core
driver that existed since the driver's birth in v6.5-rc1. It's about a
corner case that only happens if two pwm devices of the same chip are
set to the same long period.
The other problem is about the new pwm API that currently is only
supported by two hardware drivers. The fix prevents a NULL pointer
exception if one of the new functions is called for a pwm device with
a driver that only provides the old callbacks"

Add support for proper cleanup and re-initialization of virtio-blk devices
during transport reset error recovery flow.
This enhancement includes:
- Pre-reset handler (reset_prepare) to perform device-specific cleanup
- Post-reset handler (reset_done) to re-initialize the device
These changes allow the device to recover from various reset scenarios,
ensuring proper functionality after a reset event occurs.
Without this implementation, the device cannot properly recover from
resets, potentially leading to undefined behavior or device malfunction.
This feature has been tested using PCI transport with Function Level
Reset (FLR) as an example reset mechanism. The reset can be triggered
manually via sysfs (echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/$PCI_ADDR/reset).

Implement support for Function Level Reset (FLR) in virtio_pci devices.
This change adds reset_prepare and reset_done callbacks, allowing
drivers to properly handle FLR operations.
Without this patch, performing and recovering from an FLR is not possible
for virtio_pci devices. This implementation ensures proper FLR handling
and recovery for both physical and virtual functions.
The device reset can be triggered in case of error or manually via
sysfs:
echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/$PCI_ADDR/reset

in 2nd kernel
s390 allocates+prepares the elfcore hdr in the dump (2nd) kernel, not in
the crashed kernel.
RAM provided by memory devices such as virtio-mem can only be detected
using the device driver; when vmcore_init() is called, these device
drivers are usually not loaded yet, or the devices did not get probed
yet. Consequently, on s390 these RAM ranges will not be included in
the crash dump, which makes the dump partially corrupt and is
unfortunate.
Instead of deferring the vmcore_init() call, to an (unclear?) later point,
let's reuse the vmcore_cb infrastructure to obtain device RAM ranges as
the device drivers probe the device and get access to this information.
Then, we'll add these ranges to the vmcore, adding more PT_LOAD
entries and updating the offsets+vmcore size.
Use a separate Kconfig option to be set by an architecture to include this
code only if the arch really needs it. Further, we'll make the config
depend on the relevant drivers (i.e., virtio_mem) once they implement
support (next). The alternative of having a PROVIDE_PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAM
config option was dropped for now for simplicity.
The current target use case is s390, which only creates an elf64
elfcore, so focusing on elf64 is sufficient.

These vmcore defines are not related to /proc/kcore, move them out.
We'll move "struct vmcoredd_node" to vmcore.c, because it is only used
internally. While "struct vmcore" is only used internally for now,
we're planning on using it from inline functions in crash_dump.h next,
so move it to crash_dump.h.
While at it, rename "struct vmcore" to "struct vmcore_range", which is a
more suitable name and will make the usage of it outside of vmcore.c
clearer.

The vmcoredd_update_size() call and its effects (size/offset changes) are
currently completely unsynchronized, and will cause trouble when
performed concurrently, or when done while someone is already reading the
vmcore.
Let's protect all vmcore modifications by the vmcore_mutex, disallow vmcore
modifications while the vmcore is open, and warn on vmcore
modifications after the vmcore was already opened once: modifications
while the vmcore is open are unsafe, and modifications after the vmcore
was opened indicates trouble. Properly synchronize against concurrent
opening of the vmcore.
No need to grab the mutex during mmap()/read(): after we opened the
vmcore, modifications are impossible.
It's worth noting that modifications after the vmcore was opened are
completely unexpected, so failing if open, and warning if already opened
(+closed again) is good enough.
This change not only handles concurrent adding of device dumps +
concurrent reading of the vmcore properly, it also prepares for other
mechanisms that will modify the vmcore.

We want to protect vmcore modifications from concurrent opening of
the vmcore, and also serialize vmcore modification.
(a) We can currently modify the vmcore after it was opened. This can happen
if a vmcoredd is added after the vmcore module was initialized and
already opened by user space. We want to fix that and prepare for
new code wanting to serialize against concurrent opening.
(b) To handle it cleanly we need to protect the modifications against
concurrent opening. As the modifications end up allocating memory and
can sleep, we cannot rely on the spinlock.
Let's convert the spinlock into a mutex to prepare for further changes.

Pull firewire updates from Takashi Sakamoto:
"Two changes for the 6.14 kernel.
The first change concerns the PCI driver for 1394 OHCI hardware.
Previously, it used legacy PCI suspend/resume callbacks, which have
now been replaced with callbacks defined in the Linux generic power
management framework. This original patch was posted in 2020 and has
been adapted with some modifications for the latest kernel. Note that
the driver still includes platform-specific operations for PowerPC,
and these operations have not been tested in the new implementation
yet. It would be helpful to share the results of suspending/resuming
on the platform.
The other one is a minor fix for the memory allocation in some KUnit

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull rv and tools/rtla updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add a test suite to test the tool
Add a small test suite that can be used to test rtla's basic features
to at least have something to test when applying changes.
- Automate manual steps in monitor creation
While creating a new monitor in RV, besides generating code from
dot2k, there are a few manual steps which can be tedious and error
prone, like adding the tracepoints, makefile lines and kconfig, or
selecting events that start the monitor in the initial state.
Updates were made to try and automate as much as possible among those
steps to make creating a new RV monitor much quicker. It is still
requires to select proper tracepoints, this step is harder to
automate in a general way and, in several cases, would still need
user intervention.
- Have rtla timerlat hist and top set OSNOISE_WORKLOAD flag
Have both rtla-timerlat-hist and rtla-timerlat-top set
OSNOISE_WORKLOAD to the proper value ("on" when running with -k,
"off" when running with -u) every time the option is available
instead of setting it only when running with -u.
This prevents rtla timerlat -k from giving no results when
NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD is set, either manually or by an abnormally
exited earlier run of rtla timerlat -u.
- Stop rtla timerlat on signal properly when overloaded
There is an issue where if rtla is run on machines with a high number
of CPUs (100+), timerlat can generate more samples than rtla is able
to process via tracefs_iterate_raw_events. This is especially common
when the interval is set to 100us (rteval and cyclictest default) as
opposed to the rtla default of 1000us, but also happens with the rtla
default.
Currently, this leads to rtla hanging and having to be terminated
with SIGTERM. SIGINT setting stop_tracing is not enough, since more
and more events are coming and tracefs_iterate_raw_events never
exits.
To fix this: Stop the timerlat tracer on SIGINT/SIGALRM to ensure no
more events are generated when rtla is supposed to exit.
Also on receiving SIGINT/SIGALRM twice, abort iteration immediately
with tracefs_iterate_stop, making rtla exit right away instead of
waiting for all events to be processed.
- Account for missed events
Due to tracefs buffer overflow, it can happen that rtla misses
events, making the tracing results inaccurate.
Count both the number of missed events and the total number of
processed events, and display missed events as well as their
percentage. The numbers are displayed for both osnoise and timerlat,
even though for the earlier, missed events are generally not
expected.
For hist, the number is displayed at the end of the run; for top, it
is displayed on each printing of the top table.
- Changes to make osnoise more robust
There was a dependency in the code that the first field of the
osnoise_tool structure was the trace field. If that that ever
changed, then the code work break. Change the code to encapsulate
this dependency where the code that uses the structure does not have
this dependency.

Pull runtime verifier and osnoise fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Reset idle tasks on reset for runtime verifier
When the runtime verifier is reset, it resets the task's data that is
being monitored. But it only iterates for_each_process() which does
not include the idle tasks. As the idle tasks can be monitored, they
need to be reset as well.
- Fix the enabling and disabling of tracepoints in osnoise
If timerlat is enabled and the WORKLOAD flag is not set, then the
osnoise tracer will enable the migrate task tracepoint to monitor it
for its own workload. The test to enable the tracepoint is done
against user space modifiable parameters. On disabling of the tracer,
those same parameters are used to determine if the tracepoint should
be disabled. The problem is if user space were to modify the
parameters after it enables the tracer then it may not disable the
tracepoint.
Instead, a static variable is used to keep track if the tracepoint
was enabled or not. Then when the tracer shuts down, it will use this
variable to decide to disable the tracepoint or not, instead of
looking at the user space parameters.

Switch away from using sha1 for module signing by default and use the
more modern sha512 instead, which is what among others Arch, Fedora,
RHEL, and Ubuntu are currently using for their kernels.
Sha1 has not been considered secure against well-funded opponents since
2005[1]; since 2011 the NIST and other organizations furthermore
recommended its replacement[2]. This is why OpenSSL on RHEL9, Fedora
Linux 41+[3], and likely some other current and future distributions
reject the creation of sha1 signatures, which leads to a build error of
allmodconfig configurations:
80A20474797F0000:error:03000098:digital envelope routines:do_sigver_init:invalid digest:crypto/evp/m_sigver.c:342:

make[1]: Leaving directory '...'

This change makes allmodconfig work again and sets a default that is
more appropriate for current and future users, too.

However the module sysfs code only creates a kobject to get a

The structure is always read-only due to its placement in the read-only
section __modver. Reflect this at its usage sites.
Also prepare for the const handling of 'struct module_attribute' itself.

The 'struct module_attribute' sysfs callbacks are about to change to
receive a 'const struct module_attribute *' parameter.
Prepare for that by avoid casting away the constness through
container_of() and using const pointers to 'struct param_attribute'.
