soc/tegra: pmc: Fix unsafe generic_handle_irq() call
Currently, when resuming from system suspend on Tegra platforms,
the following warning is observed:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 14459 at kernel/irq/irqdesc.c:666
Call trace:
handle_irq_desc+0x20/0x58 (P)
tegra186_pmc_wake_syscore_resume+0xe4/0x15c
syscore_resume+0x3c/0xb8
suspend_devices_and_enter+0x510/0x540
pm_suspend+0x16c/0x1d8
The warning occurs because generic_handle_irq() is being called from
a non-interrupt context which is considered as unsafe.
Fix this warning by deferring generic_handle_irq() call to an IRQ work
which gets executed in hard IRQ context where generic_handle_irq()
can be called safely.
When PREEMPT_RT kernels are used, regular IRQ work (initialized with
init_irq_work) is deferred to run in per-CPU kthreads in preemptible
context rather than hard IRQ context. Hence, use the IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD
variant so that with PREEMPT_RT kernels, the IRQ work is processed in
hardirq context instead of being deferred to a thread which is required
for calling generic_handle_irq().
On non-PREEMPT_RT kernels, both init_irq_work() and IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD()
execute in IRQ context, so this change has no functional impact for
standard kernel configurations.

drm/amd/display: Adjust PHY FSM transition to TX_EN-to-PLL_ON for TMDS on DCN35
[Why]
A backport of the change made for DCN401 that addresses an issue where
we turn off the PHY PLL when disabling TMDS output, which causes the
OTG to remain stuck.
The OTG being stuck can lead to a hang in the DCHVM's ability to ACK
invalidations when it thinks the HUBP is still on but it's not receiving
global sync.
The transition to PLL_ON needs to be atomic as there's no guarantee
that the thread isn't pre-empted or is able to complete before the
IOMMU watchdog times out.
[How]
Backport the implementation from dcn401 back to dcn35.
There's a functional difference in when the eDP output is disabled in
dcn401 code so we don't want to utilize it directly. |

rxrpc: Fix call removal to use RCU safe deletion
Fix rxrpc call removal from the rxnet->calls list to use list_del_rcu()
rather than list_del_init() to prevent stuffing up reading
/proc/net/rxrpc/calls from potentially getting into an infinite loop.
This, however, means that list_empty() no longer works on an entry that's
been deleted from the list, making it harder to detect prior deletion. Fix
this by:
Firstly, make rxrpc_destroy_all_calls() only dump the first ten calls that
are unexpectedly still on the list. Limiting the number of steps means
there's no need to call cond_resched() or to remove calls from the list
here, thereby eliminating the need for rxrpc_put_call() to check for that.
rxrpc_put_call() can then be fixed to unconditionally delete the call from
the list as it is the only place that the deletion occurs. |

Note, the KVM flaw has been present since commit ad73109ae7ec ("KVM: SVM:
Provide support to launch and run an SEV-ES guest"), but has only been
actively dangerous for the host since SNP support was added. With SEV-ES,
KVM would "just" clobber guest state, which is totally fine from a host
kernel perspective since userspace can clobber guest state any time before
sev_launch_update_vmsa(). |

mm/userfaultfd: fix hugetlb fault mutex hash calculation
In mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), linear_page_index() is used to calculate the
page index for hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash(). However, linear_page_index()
returns the index in PAGE_SIZE units, while hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash()
expects the index in huge page units. This mismatch means that different
addresses within the same huge page can produce different hash values,
leading to the use of different mutexes for the same huge page. This can
cause races between faulting threads, which can corrupt the reservation
map and trigger the BUG_ON in resv_map_release().
Fix this by introducing hugetlb_linear_page_index(), which returns the
page index in huge page granularity, and using it in place of
linear_page_index(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clockevents: Add missing resets of the next_event_forced flag
The prevention mechanism against timer interrupt starvation missed to reset
the next_event_forced flag in a couple of places:
- When the clock event state changes. That can cause the flag to be
stale over a shutdown/startup sequence
- When a non-forced event is armed, which then prevents rearming before
that event. If that event is far out in the future this will cause
missed timer interrupts.
- In the suspend wakeup handler.
That led to stalls which have been reported by several people.
Add the missing resets, which fixes the problems for the reporters. |

net/mlx5e: Prevent concurrent access to IPSec ASO context
The query or updating IPSec offload object is through Access ASO WQE.
The driver uses a single mlx5e_ipsec_aso struct for each PF, which
contains a shared DMA-mapped context for all ASO operations.
A race condition exists because the ASO spinlock is released before
the hardware has finished processing WQE. If a second operation is
initiated immediately after, it overwrites the shared context in the
DMA area.
When the first operation's completion is processed later, it reads
this corrupted context, leading to unexpected behavior and incorrect
results.
This commit fixes the race by introducing a private context within
each IPSec offload object. The shared ASO context is now copied to
this private context while the ASO spinlock is held. Subsequent
processing uses this saved, per-object context, ensuring its integrity
is maintained. |

sched_ext: Fix stall when a task enqueued with SCX_ENQ_LAST lands back on its CPU's local DSQ
With SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST, the last runnable task on a CPU is passed to
ops.enqueue() instead of being kept running. Exiting tasks without
SCX_OPS_ENQ_EXITING, migration disabled tasks without
SCX_OPS_ENQ_MIGRATION_DISABLED and tasks on an offline rq skip ops.enqueue()
and go straight to the local DSQ. This happens in put_prev_task_scx() after
the pick has settled on idle, so nothing reschedules the CPU, which idles
with the task queued until an unrelated wakeup lands on it or the watchdog
fires.
scx_mitosis, which sets SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST without SCX_OPS_ENQ_EXITING, hit
this during mass cgroup teardown: exiting tasks stuck in exit_mmap() for
over 40 seconds.
A task put on the local DSQ runs, as anywhere else. If the SCX_ENQ_LAST
enqueue left the task on this CPU's local DSQ, set need_resched on the task
being switched in, as proxy_resched_idle() does. resched_curr() would flag
the task being put instead, and __schedule() clears that right after the
pick. |

usb: hub: use shorter 120ms post resume hold for SS root hubs
Holding a USB3 hub PM runtime reference for 200ms at hub resume triggers
an AMD platform issue. Users running Android adb report crashes after
adb has been polling and waking up the USB subsystem once a second for
some time. Vendors are working on a solution. Disabling USB runtime PM
is one way to prevent this issue, but it is also proven that reducing the
hold time to 120ms in resume also mitigates it. See Link for more
details.
Reducing the hold time to 120ms for the USB3 roothub is in itself a valid
change and optimization, as the current 200ms is excessive: a root hub
has no upstream suspended hub whose wake propagation needs to be
accounted for, but still need some time for USB3 link training to
complete.
Keep the 200ms hold for external hubs that commit 8f5b7e2bec1c
("usb: hub: fix detection of high tier USB3 devices behind suspended
hubs") is intended for. |

ext2: Fix lost inode updates for IS_SYNC inodes
ext2_setsize() and ext2_xattr_set2() had a construct like:
if (IS_SYNC(inode)) {
sync_inode_metadata(inode, 1);
} else {
mark_inode_dirty(inode);
}
which leads to lost inode updates for IS_SYNC inodes because
sync_inode_metadata() does anything only if the inode is already dirty
and hence inode updates may be simply lost. Fix the problem by
unconditionally marking the inode dirty and *then* call
sync_inode_metadata(). |

pmdomain: imx: Fix i.MX8MP VC8000E power up sequence
Per errata[1]:
ERR050531: VPU_NOC power down handshake may hang during VC8000E/VPUMIX
power up/down cycling.
Description: VC8000E reset de-assertion edge and AXI clock may have a
timing issue.
Workaround: Set bit2 (vc8000e_clk_en) of BLK_CLK_EN_CSR to 0 to gate off
both AXI clock and VC8000E clock sent to VC8000E and AXI clock sent to
VPU_NOC m_v_2 interface during VC8000E power up(VC8000E reset is
de-asserted by HW)
Add a bool variable is_errata_err050531 in
'struct imx8m_blk_ctrl_domain_data' to represent whether the workaround
is needed. If is_errata_err050531 is true, first clear the clk before
powering up gpc, then enable the clk after powering up gpc.

drm/vc4: Shut down BO cache timer before teardown
The BO cache timer callback schedules time_work, and time_work can rearm
the timer through vc4_bo_cache_free_old().
vc4_bo_cache_destroy() deletes the timer and then cancels the work, which
does not break that cycle: the work being cancelled can rearm the timer,
and the timer then queues work again after teardown.
Use timer_shutdown_sync() instead, so the timer cannot be rearmed and the
cycle ends with cancel_work_sync(). |

sctp: disable BH before calling udp_tunnel_xmit_skb()
udp_tunnel_xmit_skb() / udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb() are expected to run with
BH disabled. After commit 6f1a9140ecda ("add xmit recursion limit to
tunnel xmit functions"), on the path:
udp(6)_tunnel_xmit_skb() -> ip(6)tunnel_xmit()
dev_xmit_recursion_inc()/dec() must stay balanced on the same CPU.
Without local_bh_disable(), the context may move between CPUs, which can
break the inc/dec pairing. This may lead to incorrect recursion level
detection and cause packets to be dropped in ip(6)_tunnel_xmit() or
__dev_queue_xmit().
Fix it by disabling BH around both IPv4 and IPv6 SCTP UDP xmit paths.

alpha: fix user-space corruption during memory compaction
Alpha systems can suffer sporadic user-space crashes and heap
corruption when memory compaction is enabled.
Symptoms include SIGSEGV, glibc allocator failures (e.g. "unaligned
tcache chunk"), and compiler internal errors. The failures disappear
when compaction is disabled or when using global TLB invalidation.
The root cause is insufficient TLB shootdown during page migration.
Alpha relies on ASN-based MM context rollover for instruction cache
coherency, but this alone is not sufficient to prevent stale data or
instruction translations from surviving migration.
Fix this by introducing a migration-specific helper that combines:
- MM context invalidation (ASN rollover),
- immediate per-CPU TLB invalidation (TBI),
- synchronous cross-CPU shootdown when required.
The helper is used only by migration/compaction paths to avoid changing
global TLB semantics.
Additionally, update flush_tlb_other(), pte_clear(), to use
READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() for correct SMP memory ordering.
This fixes observed crashes on both UP and SMP Alpha systems. |

smb: client: prevent races in ->query_interfaces()
It was possible for two query interface works to be concurrently trying
to update the interfaces.
Prevent this by checking and updating iface_last_update under
iface_lock. |

btrfs: log new dentries when logging parent dir of a conflicting inode
If we log the parent directory of a conflicting inode, we are not logging
the new dentries of the directory, so when we finish we have the parent
directory's inode marked as logged but we did not log its new dentries.
As a consequence if the parent directory is explicitly fsynced later and
it does not have any new changes since we logged it, the fsync is a no-op
and after a power failure the new dentries are missing.
Example scenario:
$ mkdir foo
$ sync
$rmdir foo
$ mkdir dir1
$ mkdir dir2
# A file with the same name and parent as the directory we just deleted
# and was persisted in a past transaction. So the deleted directory's
# inode is a conflicting inode of this new file's inode.
$ touch foo
$ ln foo dir2/link
# The fsync on dir2 will log the parent directory (".") because the
# conflicting inode (deleted directory) does not exists anymore, but it
# it does not log its new dentries (dir1).
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" dir2
# This fsync on the parent directory is no-op, since the previous fsync
# logged it (but without logging its new dentries).
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" .
<power failure>
# After log replay dir1 is missing.
Fix this by ensuring we log new dir dentries whenever we log the parent
directory of a no longer existing conflicting inode.
A test case for fstests will follow soon. |
