commit cd8e468efb4fb2742e06328a75b282c35c1abf8d upstream.

Dell All In One (AIO) models released after 2017 use a backlight
controller board connected to an UART.

In DSDT this uart port will be defined as:

   Name (_HID, "DELL0501")
   Name (_CID, EisaId ("PNP0501")

Commit 484bae9e4d6a ("platform/x86: Add new Dell UART backlight driver")
has added support for this, but I neglected to tie this into
acpi_video_get_backlight_type().

Now the first AIO has turned up which has not only the DSDT bits for this,
but also an actual controller attached to the UART, yet it is not using
this controller for backlight control.

Add support to acpi_video_get_backlight_type() for a new dell_uart
backlight type. So that the existing infra to override the backlight
control method on the commandline or with DMI quirks can be used.

commit f03e94f23b04c2b71c0044c1534921b3975ef10c upstream.

scsi_logical_block_count() should return the block count of a given SCSI
command. The original implementation ended up shifting twice, leading to an
incorrect count being returned. Fix the conversion between bytes and
logical blocks.

[ Upstream commit 807067bf014d4a3ae2cc55bd3de16f22a01eb580 ]

syzkaller reported UAF in kcm_release(). [0]

The scenario is

  1. Thread A builds a skb with MSG_MORE and sets kcm-&gt;seq_skb.

  2. Thread A resumes building skb from kcm-&gt;seq_skb but is blocked
     by sk_stream_wait_memory()

  3. Thread B calls sendmsg() concurrently, finishes building kcm-&gt;seq_skb
     and puts the skb to the write queue

  4. Thread A faces an error and finally frees skb that is already in the
     write queue

  5. kcm_release() does double-free the skb in the write queue

When a thread is building a MSG_MORE skb, another thread must not touch it.

Let's add a per-sk mutex and serialise kcm_sendmsg().

[ Upstream commit c5e12ac3beb0dd3a718296b2d8af5528e9ab728e ]

As explained by Horatiu Vultur in commit 603ead96582d ("net: sparx5: Add
spinlock for frame transmission from CPU") which is for a similar
hardware design, multiple CPUs can simultaneously perform injection
or extraction. There are only 2 register groups for injection and 2
for extraction, and the driver only uses one of each. So we'd better
serialize access using spin locks, otherwise frame corruption is
possible.

Note that unlike in sparx5, FDMA in ocelot does not have this issue
because struct ocelot_fdma_tx_ring already contains an xmit_lock.

I guess this is mostly a problem for NXP LS1028A, as that is dual core.
I don't think VSC7514 is. So I'm blaming the commit where LS1028A (aka
the felix DSA driver) started using register-based packet injection and
extraction.

<title>net: mscc: ocelot: use ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() also for FDMA and register injection</title>

[ Upstream commit 67c3ca2c5cfe6a50772514e3349b5e7b3b0fac03 ]

Problem description
-------------------

On an NXP LS1028A (felix DSA driver) with the following configuration:

- ocelot-8021q tagging protocol
- VLAN-aware bridge (with STP) spanning at least swp0 and swp1
- 8021q VLAN upper interfaces on swp0 and swp1: swp0.700, swp1.700
- ptp4l on swp0.700 and swp1.700

we see that the ptp4l instances do not see each other's traffic,
and they all go to the grand master state due to the
ANNOUNCE_RECEIPT_TIMEOUT_EXPIRES condition.

Jumping to the conclusion for the impatient
-------------------------------------------

There is a zero-day bug in the ocelot switchdev driver in the way it
handles VLAN-tagged packet injection. The correct logic already exists in
the source code, in function ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() added by commit
5ca721c54d86 ("net: dsa: tag_ocelot: set the classified VLAN during xmit").
But it is used only for normal NPI-based injection with the DSA "ocelot"
tagging protocol. The other injection code paths (register-based and
FDMA-based) roll their own wrong logic. This affects and was noticed on
the DSA "ocelot-8021q" protocol because it uses register-based injection.

By moving ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() to a place that's common for both
the DSA tagger and the ocelot switch library, it can also be called from
ocelot_port_inject_frame() in ocelot.c.

We need to touch the lines with ocelot_ifh_port_set()'s prototype
anyway, so let's rename it to something clearer regarding what it does,
and add a kernel-doc. ocelot_ifh_set_basic() should do.

Investigation notes
-------------------

Debugging reveals that PTP event (aka those carrying timestamps, like
Sync) frames injected into swp0.700 (but also swp1.700) hit the wire
with two VLAN tags:

00000000: 01 1b 19 00 00 00 00 01 02 03 04 05 81 00 02 bc
                                              ~~~~~~~~~~~
00000010: 81 00 02 bc 88 f7 00 12 00 2c 00 00 02 00 00 00
          ~~~~~~~~~~~
00000020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 02 ff fe 03
00000030: 04 05 00 01 00 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000040: 00 00

The second (unexpected) VLAN tag makes felix_check_xtr_pkt() -&gt;
ptp_classify_raw() fail to see these as PTP packets at the link
partner's receiving end, and return PTP_CLASS_NONE (because the BPF
classifier is not written to expect 2 VLAN tags).

The reason why packets have 2 VLAN tags is because the transmission
code treats VLAN incorrectly.

Neither ocelot switchdev, nor felix DSA, declare the NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_TX
feature. Therefore, at xmit time, all VLANs should be in the skb head,
and none should be in the hwaccel area. This is done by:

static struct sk_buff *validate_xmit_vlan(struct sk_buff *skb,
					  netdev_features_t features)
{
	if (skb_vlan_tag_present(skb) &amp;&amp;
	    !vlan_hw_offload_capable(features, skb-&gt;vlan_proto))
		skb = __vlan_hwaccel_push_inside(skb);
	return skb;
}

But ocelot_port_inject_frame() handles things incorrectly:

	ocelot_ifh_port_set(ifh, port, rew_op, skb_vlan_tag_get(skb));

void ocelot_ifh_port_set(struct sk_buff *skb, void *ifh, int port, u32 rew_op)
{
	(...)
	if (vlan_tag)
		ocelot_ifh_set_vlan_tci(ifh, vlan_tag);
	(...)
}

The way __vlan_hwaccel_push_inside() pushes the tag inside the skb head
is by calling:

static inline void __vlan_hwaccel_clear_tag(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
	skb-&gt;vlan_present = 0;
}

which does _not_ zero out skb-&gt;vlan_tci as seen by skb_vlan_tag_get().
This means that ocelot, when it calls skb_vlan_tag_get(), sees
(and uses) a residual skb-&gt;vlan_tci, while the same VLAN tag is
_already_ in the skb head.

The trivial fix for double VLAN headers is to replace the content of
ocelot_ifh_port_set() with:

	if (skb_vlan_tag_present(skb))
		ocelot_ifh_set_vlan_tci(ifh, skb_vlan_tag_get(skb));

but this would not be correct either, because, as mentioned,
vlan_hw_offload_capable() is false for us, so we'd be inserting dead
code and we'd always transmit packets with VID=0 in the injection frame
header.

I can't actually test the ocelot switchdev driver and rely exclusively
on code inspection, but I don't think traffic from 8021q uppers has ever
been injected properly, and not double-tagged. Thus I'm blaming the
introduction of VLAN fields in the injection header - early driver code.

As hinted at in the early conclusion, what we _want_ to happen for
VLAN transmission was already described once in commit 5ca721c54d86
("net: dsa: tag_ocelot: set the classified VLAN during xmit").

ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() intends to ensure that if the port through
which we're transmitting is under a VLAN-aware bridge, the outer VLAN
tag from the skb head is stripped from there and inserted into the
injection frame header (so that the packet is processed in hardware
through that actual VLAN). And in all other cases, the packet is sent
with VID=0 in the injection frame header, since the port is VLAN-unaware
and has logic to strip this VID on egress (making it invisible to the
wire).

[ Upstream commit aae6b81260fd9a7224f7eb4fc440d625852245bb ]

This inverts the LE State quirk so by default we assume the controllers
would report valid states rather than invalid which is how quirks
normally behave, also this would result in HCI command failing it the LE
States are really broken thus exposing the controllers that are really
broken in this respect.

<title>thermal: gov_bang_bang: Use governor_data to reduce overhead</title>

[ Upstream commit 6e6f58a170ea98e44075b761f2da42a5aec47dfb ]

After running once, the for_each_trip_desc() loop in
bang_bang_manage() is pure needless overhead because it is not going to
make any changes unless a new cooling device has been bound to one of
the trips in the thermal zone or the system is resuming from sleep.

For this reason, make bang_bang_manage() set governor_data for the
thermal zone and check it upfront to decide whether or not it needs to
do anything.

However, governor_data needs to be reset in some cases to let
bang_bang_manage() know that it should walk the trips again, so add an
.update_tz() callback to the governor and make the core additionally
invoke it during system resume.

To avoid affecting the other users of that callback unnecessarily, add
a special notification reason for system resume, THERMAL_TZ_RESUME, and
also pass it to __thermal_zone_device_update() called during system
resume for consistency.

[ Upstream commit bcc954c6caba01fca143162d5fbb90e46aa1ad80 ]

commit 779dbc2e78d7 ("printk: Avoid non-panic CPUs writing
to ringbuffer") disabled non-panic CPUs to further write messages to
ringbuffer after panicked.

Since the commit, non-panicked CPU's are not allowed to write to
ring buffer after panicked and CPU backtrace which is triggered
after panicked to sample non-panicked CPUs' backtrace no longer
serves its function as it has nothing to print.

Fix the issue by allowing non-panicked CPUs to write into ringbuffer
while CPU backtrace is in flight.

<title>io_uring/napi: use ktime in busy polling</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 342b2e395d5f34c9f111a818556e617939f83a8c ]

It's more natural to use ktime/ns instead of keeping around usec,
especially since we're comparing it against user provided timers,
so convert napi busy poll internal handling to ktime. It's also nicer
since the type (ktime_t vs unsigned long) now tells the unit of measure.

Keep everything as ktime, which we convert to/from micro seconds for
IORING_[UN]REGISTER_NAPI. The net/ busy polling works seems to work with
usec, however it's not real usec as shift by 10 is used to get it from
nsecs, see busy_loop_current_time(), so it's easy to get truncated nsec
back and we get back better precision.

Note, we can further improve it later by removing the truncation and
maybe convincing net/ to use ktime/ns instead.

<title>kbuild: remove PROVIDE() for kallsyms symbols</title>

<id>urn:sha1:76274d10bec865e2c228438eb3994ac21a8b117d</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit c442db3f49f27e5a60a641b2ac9a3c6320796ed6 ]

This reimplements commit 951bcae6c5a0 ("kallsyms: Avoid weak references
for kallsyms symbols") because I am not a big fan of PROVIDE().

As an alternative solution, this commit prepends one more kallsyms step.

    KSYMS   .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.S          # added
    AS      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.o          # added
    LD      .tmp_vmlinux.btf
    BTF     .btf.vmlinux.bin.o
    LD      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1
    NM      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.syms
    KSYMS   .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.S
    AS      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.o
    LD      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2
    NM      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.syms
    KSYMS   .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.S
    AS      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.o
    LD      vmlinux

Step 0 takes /dev/null as input, and generates .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.o,
which has a valid kallsyms format with the empty symbol list, and can be
linked to vmlinux. Since it is really small, the added compile-time cost
is negligible.
