commit 8678591b47469fe16357234efef9b260317b8be4 upstream.

Commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in
vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo to ELF_DETAILS while removing it
from COMMON_DISCARDS, as it was needed in vmlinux.unstripped and
ELF_DETAILS was present in all architecture specific vmlinux linker
scripts. While this shuffle is fine for vmlinux, ELF_DETAILS and
COMMON_DISCARDS may be used by other linker scripts, such as the s390
and x86 compressed boot images, which may not expect to have a .modinfo
section. In certain circumstances, this could result in a bootloader
failing to load the compressed kernel [1].

Commit ddc6cbef3ef1 ("s390/boot/vmlinux.lds.S: Ensure bzImage ends with
SecureBoot trailer") recently addressed this for the s390 bzImage but
the same bug remains for arm, parisc, and x86. The presence of .modinfo
in the x86 bzImage was the root cause of the issue worked around with
commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot
Authenticode EDK2 compat"). misc.c in arch/x86/boot/compressed includes
lib/decompress_unzstd.c, which in turn includes lib/xxhash.c and its
MODULE_LICENSE / MODULE_DESCRIPTION macros due to the STATIC definition.

Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS into its own macro and handle it in
all vmlinux linker scripts. Discard .modinfo in the places where it was
previously being discarded from being in COMMON_DISCARDS, as it has
never been necessary in those uses.

Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
 "Enumeration:

   - Add PCI_FIND_NEXT_CAP() and PCI_FIND_NEXT_EXT_CAP() macros that
     take config space accessor functions.

     Implement pci_find_capability(), pci_find_ext_capability(), and
     dwc, dwc endpoint, and cadence capability search interfaces with
     them (Hans Zhang)

   - Leave parent unit address 0 in 'interrupt-map' so that when we
     build devicetree nodes to describe PCI functions that contain
     multiple peripherals, we can build this property even when
     interrupt controllers lack 'reg' properties (Lorenzo Pieralisi)

   - Add a Xeon 6 quirk to disable Extended Tags and limit Max Read
     Request Size to 128B to avoid a performance issue (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Add sysfs 'serial_number' file to expose the Device Serial Number
     (Matthew Wood)

   - Fix pci_acpi_preserve_config() memory leak (Nirmoy Das)

  Resource management:

   - Align m68k pcibios_enable_device() with other arches (Ilpo
     Järvinen)

   - Remove sparc pcibios_enable_device() implementations that don't do
     anything beyond what pci_enable_resources() does (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Remove mips pcibios_enable_resources() and use
     pci_enable_resources() instead (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Clean up bridge window sizing and assignment (Ilpo Järvinen),
     including:

       - Leave non-claimed bridge windows disabled

       - Enable bridges even if a window wasn't assigned because not all
         windows are required by downstream devices

       - Preserve bridge window type when releasing the resource, since
         the type is needed for reassignment

       - Consolidate selection of bridge windows into two new
         interfaces, pbus_select_window() and
         pbus_select_window_for_type(), so this is done consistently

       - Compute bridge window start and end earlier to avoid logging
         stale information

  MSI:

   - Add quirk to disable MSI on RDC PCI to PCIe bridges (Marcos Del Sol
     Vives)

  Error handling:

   - Align AER with EEH by allowing drivers to request a Bus Reset on
     Non-Fatal Errors (in addition to the reset on Fatal Errors that we
     already do) (Lukas Wunner)

   - If error recovery fails, emit FAILED_RECOVERY uevents for the
     devices, not for the bridge leading to them.

     This makes them correspond to BEGIN_RECOVERY uevents (Lukas Wunner)

   - Align AER with EEH by calling err_handler.error_detected()
     callbacks to notify drivers if error recovery fails (Lukas Wunner)

   - Align AER with EEH by restoring device error_state to
     pci_channel_io_normal before the err_handler.slot_reset() callback.

     This is earlier than before the err_handler.resume() callback
     (Lukas Wunner)

   - Emit a BEGIN_RECOVERY uevent when driver's
     err_handler.error_detected() requests a reset, as well as when it
     says recovery is complete or can be done without a reset (Niklas
     Schnelle)

   - Align s390 with AER and EEH by emitting uevents during error
     recovery (Niklas Schnelle)

   - Align EEH with AER and s390 by emitting BEGIN_RECOVERY,
     SUCCESSFUL_RECOVERY, or FAILED_RECOVERY uevents depending on the
     result of err_handler.error_detected() (Niklas Schnelle)

   - Fix a NULL pointer dereference in aer_ratelimit() when ACPI GHES
     error information identifies a device without an AER Capability
     (Breno Leitao)

   - Update error decoding and TLP Log printing for new errors in
     current PCIe base spec (Lukas Wunner)

   - Update error recovery documentation to match the current code
     and use consistent nomenclature (Lukas Wunner)

  ASPM:

   - Enable all ClockPM and ASPM states for devicetree platforms, since
     there's typically no firmware that enables ASPM

     This is a risky change that may uncover hardware or configuration
     defects at boot-time rather than when users enable ASPM via sysfs
     later. Booting with "pcie_aspm=off" prevents this enabling
     (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Remove the qcom code that enabled ASPM (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

  Power management:

   - If a device has already been disconnected, e.g., by a hotplug
     removal, don't bother trying to resume it to D0 when detaching the
     driver.

     This avoids annoying "Unable to change power state from D3cold to
     D0" messages (Mario Limonciello)

   - Ensure devices are powered up before config reads for
     'max_link_width', 'current_link_speed', 'current_link_width',
     'secondary_bus_number', and 'subordinate_bus_number' sysfs files.

     This prevents using invalid data (~0) in drivers or lspci and,
     depending on how the PCIe controller reports errors, may avoid
     error interrupts or crashes (Brian Norris)

  Virtualization:

   - Add rescan/remove locking when enabling/disabling SR-IOV, which
     avoids list corruption on s390, where disabling SR-IOV also
     generates hotplug events (Niklas Schnelle)

  Peer-to-peer DMA:

   - Free struct p2p_pgmap, not a member within it, in the
     pci_p2pdma_add_resource() error path (Sungho Kim)

  Endpoint framework:

   - Document sysfs interface for BAR assignment of vNTB endpoint
     functions (Jerome Brunet)

   - Fix array underflow in endpoint BAR test case (Dan Carpenter)

   - Skip endpoint IRQ test if the IRQ is out of range to avoid false
     errors (Christian Bruel)

   - Fix endpoint test case for controllers with fixed-size BARs smaller
     than requested by the test (Marek Vasut)

   - Restore inbound translation when disabling doorbell so the endpoint
     doorbell test case can be run more than once (Niklas Cassel)

   - Avoid a NULL pointer dereference when releasing DMA channels in
     endpoint DMA test case (Shin'ichiro Kawasaki)

   - Convert tegra194 interrupt number to MSI vector to fix endpoint
     Kselftest MSI_TEST test case (Niklas Cassel)

   - Reset tegra194 BARs when running in endpoint mode so the BAR tests
     don't overwrite the ATU settings in BAR4 (Niklas Cassel)

   - Handle errors in tegra194 BPMP transactions so we don't mistakenly
     skip future PERST# assertion (Vidya Sagar)

  AMD MDB PCIe controller driver:

   - Update DT binding example to separate PERST# to a Root Port stanza
     to make multiple Root Ports possible in the future (Sai Krishna
     Musham)

   - Add driver support for PERST# being described in a Root Port
     stanza, falling back to the host bridge if not found there (Sai
     Krishna Musham)

  Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:

   - Enable the 3.3V Vaux supply if available so devices can request
     wakeup with either Beacon or WAKE# (Richard Zhu)

  MediaTek PCIe Gen3 controller driver:

   - Add optional sys clock ready time setting to avoid sys_clk_rdy
     signal glitching in MT6991 and MT8196 (AngeloGioacchino Del Regno)

   - Add DT binding and driver support for MT6991 and MT8196
     (AngeloGioacchino Del Regno)

  NVIDIA Tegra PCIe controller driver:

   - When asserting PERST#, disable the controller instead of mistakenly
     disabling the PLL twice (Nagarjuna Kristam)

   - Convert struct tegra_msi mask_lock to raw spinlock to avoid a lock
     nesting error (Marek Vasut)

  Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:

   - Select PCI Power Control Slot driver so slot voltage rails can be
     turned on/off if described in Root Port devicetree node (Qiang Yu)

   - Parse only PCI bridge child nodes in devicetree, skipping unrelated
     nodes such as OPP (Operating Performance Points), which caused
     probe failures (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)

   - Add 8.0 GT/s and 32.0 GT/s equalization settings (Ziyue Zhang)

   - Consolidate Root Port 'phy' and 'reset' properties in struct
     qcom_pcie_port, regardless of whether we got them from the Root
     Port node or the host bridge node (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Fetch and map the ELBI register space in the DWC core rather than
     in each driver individually (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)

   - Enable ECAM mechanism in DWC core by setting up iATU with 'CFG
     Shift Feature' and use this in the qcom driver (Krishna Chaitanya
     Chundru)

   - Add SM8750 compatible to qcom,pcie-sm8550.yaml (Krishna Chaitanya
     Chundru)

   - Update qcom,pcie-x1e80100.yaml to allow fifth PCIe host on Qualcomm
     Glymur, which is compatible with X1E80100 but doesn't have the
     cnoc_sf_axi clock (Qiang Yu)

  Renesas R-Car PCIe controller driver:

   - Fix a typo that prevented correct PHY initialization (Marek Vasut)

   - Add a missing 1ms delay after PWR reset assertion as required by
     the V4H manual (Marek Vasut)

   - Assure reset has completed before DBI access to avoid SError (Marek
     Vasut)

   - Fix inverted PHY initialization check, which sometimes led to
     timeouts and failure to start the controller (Marek Vasut)

   - Pass the correct IRQ domain to generic_handle_domain_irq() to fix a
     regression when converting to msi_create_parent_irq_domain()
     (Claudiu Beznea)

   - Drop the spinlock protecting the PMSR register - it's no longer
     required since pci_lock already serializes accesses (Marek Vasut)

   - Convert struct rcar_msi mask_lock to raw spinlock to avoid a lock
     nesting error (Marek Vasut)

  SOPHGO PCIe controller driver:

   - Check for existence of struct cdns_pcie.ops before using it to
     allow Cadence drivers that don't need to supply ops (Chen Wang)

   - Add DT binding and driver for the SOPHGO SG2042 PCIe controller
     (Chen Wang)

  STMicroelectronics STM32MP25 PCIe controller driver:

   - Update pinctrl documentation of initial states and use in runtime
     suspend/resume (Christian Bruel)

   - Add pinctrl_pm_select_init_state() for use by stm32 driver, which
     needs it during resume (Christian Bruel)

   - Add devicetree bindings and drivers for the STMicroelectronics
     STM32MP25 in host and endpoint modes (Christian Bruel)

  Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:

   - Add support for x16 in devicetree 'num-lanes' property (Konrad
     Dybcio)

   - Verify that if DT specifies a single IRQ for all eDMA channels, it
     is named 'dma' (Niklas Cassel)

  TI J721E PCIe driver:

   - Add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() so driver can be autoloaded (Siddharth
     Vadapalli)

   - Power controller off before configuring the glue layer so the
     controller latches the correct values on power-on (Siddharth
     Vadapalli)

  TI Keystone PCIe controller driver:

   - Use devm_request_irq() so 'ks-pcie-error-irq' is freed when driver
     exits with error (Siddharth Vadapalli)

   - Add Peripheral Virtualization Unit (PVU), which restricts DMA from
     PCIe devices to specific regions of host memory, to the ti,am65
     binding (Jan Kiszka)

  Xilinx NWL PCIe controller driver:

   - Clear bootloader E_ECAM_CONTROL before merging in the new driver
     value to avoid writing invalid values (Jani Nurminen)"

     qcom_pcie_port, regardless of whether we got them from the Root
     Port node or the host bridge node (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Fetch and map the ELBI register space in the DWC core rather than
     in each driver individually (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)

The include/generated/asm-offsets.h is generated in Kbuild during
compiling from arch/SRCARCH/kernel/asm-offsets.c. When we want to
generate another similar offset header file, circular dependency can
happen.

For example, we want to generate a offset file include/generated/test.h,
which is included in include/sched/sched.h. If we generate asm-offsets.h
first, it will fail, as include/sched/sched.h is included in asm-offsets.c
and include/generated/test.h doesn't exist; If we generate test.h first,
it can't success neither, as include/generated/asm-offsets.h is included
by it.

In x86_64, the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS is used to avoid such circular
dependency. We can generate asm-offsets.h first, and if the
COMPILE_OFFSETS is defined, we don't include the "generated/test.h".

And we define the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS for all the asm-offsets.c for this
purpose.

<title>m68k/PCI: Use pci_enable_resources() in pcibios_enable_device()</title>

<content type='text'>
m68k has a resource enable (check) loop in its pcibios_enable_device()
which for some reason differs from pci_enable_resources(). This could lead
to inconsistencies in behavior, especially now as pci_enable_resources()
and the bridge window resource flags behavior are going to be altered by
upcoming changes.

The check for !r-&gt;start &amp;&amp; r-&gt;end is already covered by the more generic
checks done in pci_enable_resources().

The entire pcibios_enable_device() suspiciously looks copy-paste from some
other arch as also indicated by the preceding comment. However, it also
enables PCI_COMMAND_IO | PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY always for bridges. It is not
clear why that is being done as the commit e93a6bbeb5a5 ("m68k: common PCI
support definitions and code") introducing this code states "Nothing
specific to any PCI implementation in any m68k class CPU hardware yet".

Replace the resource enable loop with a call to pci_enable_resources() and
adjust the Command Register afterwards as it's unclear if that is necessary
or not so keep it for now.

<title>arch: copy_thread: pass clone_flags as u64</title>

<id>bbc46b23af5bb934cd1cf066ef4342cee457a24e</id>
<content type='text'>
With the introduction of clone3 in commit 7f192e3cd316 ("fork: add
clone3") the effective bit width of clone_flags on all architectures was
increased from 32-bit to 64-bit, with a new type of u64 for the flags.
However, for most consumers of clone_flags the interface was not
changed from the previous type of unsigned long.

While this works fine as long as none of the new 64-bit flag bits
(CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND and CLONE_INTO_CGROUP) are evaluated, this is still
undesirable in terms of the principle of least surprise.

Thus, this commit fixes all relevant interfaces of the copy_thread
function that is called from copy_process to consistently pass
clone_flags as u64, so that no truncation to 32-bit integers occurs on
32-bit architectures.

Instead of having the core code guess the note name for each regset,
use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() to pick the correct name from elf.h.

<title>m68k: Don't unregister boot console needlessly</title>

When MACH_IS_MVME147, the boot console calls mvme147_scc_write() to
generate console output. That will continue to work even after
debug_cons_nputs() becomes unavailable so there's no need to
unregister the boot console.

Take the opportunity to remove a repeated MACH_IS_* test. Use the
actual .write method (instead of a wrapper) and test that pointer
instead. This means adding an unused parameter to debug_cons_nputs() for
consistency with the struct console API.

early_printk.c is only built when CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=y. As of late,
head.S is only built when CONFIG_MMU_MOTOROLA=y. So let the former symbol
depend on the latter, to obviate some ifdef conditionals.
