<id>urn:sha1:f85086f95fa36194eb0db5cd5c12e56801b98523</id>
<content type='text'>
In register_mem_sect_under_node() the system_state's value is checked to
detect whether the call is made during boot time or during an hot-plug
operation.  Unfortunately, that check against SYSTEM_BOOTING is wrong
because regular memory is registered at SYSTEM_SCHEDULING state.  In
addition, memory hot-plug operation can be triggered at this system
state by the ACPI [1].  So checking against the system state is not
enough.

The consequence is that on system with interleaved node's ranges like this:

 Early memory node ranges
   node   1: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000011fffffff]
   node   2: [mem 0x0000000120000000-0x000000014fffffff]
   node   1: [mem 0x0000000150000000-0x00000001ffffffff]
   node   0: [mem 0x0000000200000000-0x000000048fffffff]
   node   2: [mem 0x0000000490000000-0x00000007ffffffff]

This can be seen on PowerPC LPAR after multiple memory hot-plug and
hot-unplug operations are done.  At the next reboot the node's memory
ranges can be interleaved and since the call to link_mem_sections() is
made in topology_init() while the system is in the SYSTEM_SCHEDULING
state, the node's id is not checked, and the sections registered to
multiple nodes:

  $ ls -l /sys/devices/system/memory/memory21/node*
  total 0
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     0 Aug 24 05:27 node1 -&gt; ../../node/node1
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     0 Aug 24 05:27 node2 -&gt; ../../node/node2

In that case, the system is able to boot but if later one of theses
memory blocks is hot-unplugged and then hot-plugged, the sysfs
inconsistency is detected and this is triggering a BUG_ON():

This patch addresses the root cause by not relying on the system_state
value to detect whether the call is due to a hot-plug operation.  An
extra parameter is added to link_mem_sections() detailing whether the
operation is due to a hot-plug operation.

[1] According to Oscar Salvador, using this qemu command line, ACPI
memory hotplug operations are raised at SYSTEM_SCHEDULING state:

  $QEMU -enable-kvm -machine pc -smp 4,sockets=4,cores=1,threads=1 -cpu host -monitor pty \

Pull regmap fixes from Mark Brown:
 "Two issues here - one is a fix for use after free issues in the case
  where a regmap overrides its name using something dynamically
  generated, the other is that we weren't handling access checks
  non-incrementing I/O on registers within paged register regions
  correctly resulting in spurious errors.

  Both of these are quite rare but serious if they occur"

Non-incrementing writes can fail if register + length crosses page
border. However for non-incrementing writes we should not check for page
border crossing. Fix this by passing additional flag to _regmap_raw_write
and passing length to _regmap_select_page basing on the flag.

<id>urn:sha1:94cc89eb8fa5039fcb6e3e3d50f929ddcccee095</id>
<content type='text'>
In regmap_debugfs_init the initialisation of the debugfs is delayed
if the root node isn't ready yet. Most callers of regmap_debugfs_init
pass the name from the regmap_config, which is considered temporary
ie. may be unallocated after the regmap_init call returns. This leads
to a potential use after free, where config-&gt;name has been freed by
the time it is used in regmap_debugfs_initcall.

This situation can be seen on Zynq, where the architecture init_irq
callback registers a syscon device, using a local variable for the
regmap_config. As init_irq is very early in the platform bring up the
regmap debugfs root isn't ready yet. Although this doesn't crash it
does result in the debugfs entry not having the correct name.

Regmap already sets map-&gt;name from config-&gt;name on the regmap_init
path and the fact that a separate field is used to pass the name
to regmap_debugfs_init appears to be an artifact of the debugfs
name being added before the map name. As such this patch updates
regmap_debugfs_init to use map-&gt;name, which is already duplicated from
the config avoiding the issue.

This does however leave two lose ends, both regmap_attach_dev and
regmap_reinit_cache can be called after a regmap is registered and
would have had the effect of applying a new name to the debugfs
entries. In both of these cases it was chosen to update the map
name. In the case of regmap_attach_dev there are 3 users that
currently use this function to update the name, thus doing so avoids
changes for those users and it seems reasonable that attaching
a device would want to set the name of the map. In the case of
regmap_reinit_cache the primary use-case appears to be devices that
need some register access to identify the device (for example devices
in the same family) and then update the cache to match the exact
hardware. Whilst no users do currently update the name here, given the
use-case it seemed reasonable the name might want to be updated once
the device is better identified.

<id>urn:sha1:6b57b15abe11aa334ebf726e02c0deaf123ba040</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit fixes two issues:

1. The lockdep warning reported by Dong Aisheng &lt;dongas86@gmail.com&gt; [1].

It is a warning about a cycle (dpm_list_mtx --&gt; kn-&gt;active#3 --&gt; fw_lock)
that was introduced when device-link devices were added to expose device
link information in sysfs.

The patch that "introduced" this cycle can't be reverted because it's fixes
a real SRCU issue and also ensures that the device-link device is deleted
as soon as the device-link is deleted. This is important to avoid sysfs
name collisions if the device-link is create again immediately (this can
happen a lot with deferred probing).

2. Inconsistency in grabbing device_pm_lock() during device link deletion

Some device link deletion code paths grab device_pm_lock(), while others
don't.  The device_pm_lock() is grabbed during device_link_add() because it
checks if the supplier is in the dpm_list and also reorders the dpm_list.
However, when a device link is deleted, it does not do either of those and
therefore device_pm_lock() is not necessary. Dropping the device_pm_lock()
in all the device link deletion paths removes the inconsistency in locking.

Thanks to Stephen Boyd for helping me understand the lockdep splat.
