<id>urn:sha1:b9a1ac8e7c03fd09992352c7fb1a61cbbb9ad52b</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 511885d7061eda3eb1faf3f57dcc936ff75863f1 upstream.

Simplify the timerqueue code by using cached rbtrees and rely on the tree
leftmost node semantics to get the timer with earliest expiration time.
This is a drop in conversion, and therefore semantics remain untouched.

The runtime overhead of cached rbtrees is be pretty much the same as the
current head-&gt;next method, noting that when removing the leftmost node,
a common operation for the timerqueue, the rb_next(leftmost) is O(1) as
well, so the next timer will either be the right node or its parent.
Therefore no extra pointer chasing. Finally, the size of the struct
timerqueue_head remains the same.

Passes several hours of rcutorture.

<title>libata: Add ATA_HORKAGE_NO_NCQ_ON_ATI for Samsung 860 and 870 SSD.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:04f4cd7c0063a265cd25796d98f340d85bcab45d</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 7a8526a5cd51cf5f070310c6c37dd7293334ac49 upstream.

Many users are reporting that the Samsung 860 and 870 SSD are having
various issues when combined with AMD/ATI (vendor ID 0x1002)  SATA
controllers and only completely disabling NCQ helps to avoid these
issues.

Always disabling NCQ for Samsung 860/870 SSDs regardless of the host
SATA adapter vendor will cause I/O performance degradation with well
behaved adapters. To limit the performance impact to ATI adapters,
introduce the ATA_HORKAGE_NO_NCQ_ON_ATI flag to force disable NCQ
only for these adapters.

Also, two libata.force parameters (noncqati and ncqati) are introduced
to disable and enable the NCQ for the system which equipped with ATI
SATA adapter and Samsung 860 and 870 SSDs. The user can determine NCQ
function to be enabled or disabled according to the demand.

After verifying the chipset from the user reports, the issue appears
on AMD/ATI SB7x0/SB8x0/SB9x0 SATA Controllers and does not appear on
recent AMD SATA adapters. The vendor ID of ATI should be 0x1002.
Therefore, ATA_HORKAGE_NO_NCQ_ON_AMD was modified to
ATA_HORKAGE_NO_NCQ_ON_ATI.

<title>net: mdio: introduce a shutdown method to mdio device drivers</title>

[ Upstream commit cf9579976f724ad517cc15b7caadea728c7e245c ]

MDIO-attached devices might have interrupts and other things that might
need quiesced when we kexec into a new kernel. Things are even more
creepy when those interrupt lines are shared, and in that case it is
absolutely mandatory to disable all interrupt sources.

Moreover, MDIO devices might be DSA switches, and DSA needs its own
shutdown method to unlink from the DSA master, which is a new
requirement that appeared after commit 2f1e8ea726e9 ("net: dsa: link
interfaces with the DSA master to get rid of lockdep warnings").

So introduce a -&gt;shutdown method in the MDIO device driver structure.

commit f06bc03339ad4c1baa964a5f0606247ac1c3c50b upstream.

It is common practice for helpers like this to silently,
accept a NULL pointer.
get_rpccred() and put_rpccred() used by NFS act this way
and using the same interface will ease the conversion
for NFS, and simplify the resulting code.

[ Upstream commit 35306eb23814444bd4021f8a1c3047d3cb0c8b2b ]

Jann Horn reported that SO_PEERCRED and SO_PEERGROUPS implementations
are racy, as af_unix can concurrently change sk_peer_pid and sk_peer_cred.

In order to fix this issue, this patch adds a new spinlock that needs
to be used whenever these fields are read or written.

Jann also pointed out that l2cap_sock_get_peer_pid_cb() is currently
reading sk-&gt;sk_peer_pid which makes no sense, as this field
is only possibly set by AF_UNIX sockets.
We will have to clean this in a separate patch.
This could be done by reverting b48596d1dc25 "Bluetooth: L2CAP: Add get_peer_pid callback"
or implementing what was truly expected.

Fixes: 109f6e39fa07 ("af_unix: Allow SO_PEERCRED to work across namespaces.")

[ Upstream commit 4b92d4add5f6dcf21275185c997d6ecb800054cd ]

DEFINE_SMP_CALL_CACHE_FUNCTION() was usefel before the CPU hotplug rework
to ensure that the cache related functions are called on the upcoming CPU
because the notifier itself could run on any online CPU.

The hotplug state machine guarantees that the callbacks are invoked on the
upcoming CPU. So there is no need to have this SMP function call
obfuscation. That indirection was missed when the hotplug notifiers were
converted.

This also solves the problem of ARM64 init_cache_level() invoking ACPI
functions which take a semaphore in that context. That's invalid as SMP
function calls run with interrupts disabled. Running it just from the
callback in context of the CPU hotplug thread solves this.

[ Upstream commit c7c5e6ff533fe1f9afef7d2fa46678987a1335a7 ]

syzbot found that forcing a big quantum attribute would crash hosts fast,
essentially using this:

tc qd replace dev eth0 root fq_codel quantum 4294967295

This is because fq_codel_dequeue() would have to loop
~2^31 times in :

	if (flow-&gt;deficit &lt;= 0) {
		flow-&gt;deficit += q-&gt;quantum;
		list_move_tail(&amp;flow-&gt;flowchain, &amp;q-&gt;old_flows);
		goto begin;
	}

SFQ max quantum is 2^19 (half a megabyte)
Lets adopt a max quantum of one megabyte for FQ_CODEL.
