When connecting PHY, we set the mode to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_GMII which is not always correct. Specifically on boards where RGMII_RXID is needed networking now longer works with at803x after commit 6d4cd041 ("net: phy: at803x: disable delay only for RGMII mode"). Fix by passing the correct mode. Tested on EdgeRouter Lite (RGMII_RXID, at803x PHY) and D-Link DSR-500N (RGMII, broadcom PHY).

Complete read error handling paths for all three kinds of compressed pages: 1) For cache-managed pages, PG_uptodate will be checked since read_endio will unlock and SetPageUptodate for these pages; 2) For inplaced pages, read_endio cannot SetPageUptodate directly since it should be used to mark the final decompressed data, PG_error will be set with page locked for IO error instead; 3) For staging pages, PG_error is used, which is similar to what we do for inplaced pages.

It appears on some slower systems that the driver can find its way out of the workqueue while the interrupt is disabled by continuous polling by it. Move MACvIntEnable to vnt_interrupt_work so that it is always enabled on all routes out of vnt_interrupt_process. Move MACvIntDisable so that the device doesn't keep polling the system while the workqueue is being processed.

Colin King reported a bug in read_bbreg_hdl(): memcpy(pcmd->rsp, (u8 *)&val, pcmd->rspsz); The problem is that "val" is uninitialized. This code is obviously not useful, but so far as I can tell "pcmd->cmdcode" is never GEN_CMD_CODE(_Read_BBREG) so it's not harmful either. For now the easiest fix is to just call r8712_free_cmd_obj() and return.

When switching from speakup_soft to another synth, speakup_soft would keep calling synth_buffer_getc() from softsynthx_read. Let's thus make synth.c export the knowledge of the current synth, so that speakup_soft can determine whether it should be running. speakup_soft also needs to set itself alive, otherwise the switch would let it remain silent.

`ni_cdio_cmdtest()` validates Comedi asynchronous commands for the DIO subdevice (subdevice 2) of supported National Instruments M-series cards. It is called when handling the `COMEDI_CMD` and `COMEDI_CMDTEST` ioctls for this subdevice. There are two causes for a possible divide-by-zero error when validating that the `stop_arg` member of the passed-in command is not too large. The first cause for the divide-by-zero is that calls to `comedi_bytes_per_scan()` are only valid once the command has been copied to `s->async->cmd`, but that copy is only done for the `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl. For the `COMEDI_CMDTEST` ioctl, it will use whatever was left there by the previous `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl, if any. (This is very likely, as it is usual for the application to use `COMEDI_CMDTEST` before `COMEDI_CMD`.) If there has been no previous, valid `COMEDI_CMD` for this subdevice, then `comedi_bytes_per_scan()` will return 0, so the subsequent division in `ni_cdio_cmdtest()` of `s->async->prealloc_bufsz / comedi_bytes_per_scan(s)` will be a divide-by-zero error. To fix this error, call a new function `comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd(s, cmd)`, based on the existing `comedi_bytes_per_scan(s)` but using a specified `struct comedi_cmd` for its calculations. (Also refactor `comedi_bytes_per_scan()` to call the new function.) Once the first cause for the divide-by-zero has been fixed, the second cause is that `comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd()` can legitimately return 0 if the `scan_end_arg` member of the `struct comedi_cmd` being tested is 0. Fix it by only performing the division (and validating that `stop_arg` is no more than the maximum value) if `comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd()` returns a non-zero value.

The ethernet in mt7621 is now supported by drivers/net/ethernet/mediatek/ which provides support for the integrated switch through DSA. This requires some devicetree changes, and particularly allows a board dts to identify which switch ports are present. The second CPU interface - gmac1 - doesn't work yet, so the device tree information may not be correct. The phy (which is present on the gnubee-pc2) can negotiate and report connection speed etc, but no traffic flows. The gnubee-pc1 has two network ports which are 'black' and 'blue'. There are connected to switch ports 0 and 4 respectively. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neil@brown.name> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include". We don't need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice. Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be recursively expanded. On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build. Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really old) commit e8f5bdb0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering"). It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because someone else (out of tree?) was setting it. I presume later since if the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would have just removed the ":".

The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device structure, we should release that reference. The implementation of this semantic code search is: In a function, for a local variable returned by calling of_find_device_by_node(), a, if it is released by a function such as put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use, it is considered that there is no reference leak; b, if it is passed back to the caller via dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the reference will be released in other functions, and the current function also considers that there is no reference leak; c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the corresponding error message. By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks, such as: commit 11907e9d ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in fsl_asoc_card_probe") commit a12085d1 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak") commit 11493f26 ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak") There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code. Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to further check the reference leak.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner: "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to the processes they refer to. With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of process management - sending signals - to processes other than the parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is quite handy. There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for the future once they are needed. This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via a pidfd. Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then: https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/ The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility" * tag 'pidfd-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: selftests: add tests for pidfd_send_signal() signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall

Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams: "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to the core-mm as "System RAM". Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be used to restore the memory assignment. One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution / administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that lack security capable NVDIMMs. Summary: - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI. - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax address-range to the core-mm. - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis" NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some (not described) circumstances. And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for the user space tooling. Quoting Dan from another email: "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2. I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active application coordination" * tag 'devdax-for-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for use like normal RAM mm/resource: Let walk_system_ram_range() search child resources mm/memory-hotplug: Allow memory resources to be children mm/resource: Move HMM pr_debug() deeper into resource code mm/resource: Return real error codes from walk failures device-dax: Add a 'modalias' attribute to DAX 'bus' devices device-dax: Add a 'target_node' attribute device-dax: Auto-bind device after successful new_id acpi/nfit, device-dax: Identify differentiated memory with a unique numa-node device-dax: Add /sys/class/dax backwards compatibility device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver device-dax: Move resource pinning+mapping into the common driver device-dax: Introduce bus + driver model device-dax: Start defining a dax bus model device-dax: Remove multi-resource infrastructure device-dax: Kill dax_region base device-dax: Kill dax_region ida
