fw_load_sysfs_fallback() calls device_add() before adding the fw_priv to
pending_fw_head. device_add() publishes the fallback loading interface, so
a userspace helper which discovers the device by scanning sysfs can write 0
to the loading attribute and complete the request before it is queued as
pending.
In that interleaving firmware_loading_store() calls fw_state_done() while
pending_list still points to itself, so it cannot remove an entry from
pending_fw_head. The subsequent unconditional list_add() then queues an
already-completed fw_priv. Once the request is released, pending_fw_head
can retain a pointer to freed memory and the next fallback request can
fault while validating the list.
Only in-flight fallback requests need suspend or reboot abort handling. If
the request is already DONE after device_add(), return success from the
fallback path without sending another uevent, waiting again, or queueing it
as pending. This preserves the invariant that pending_fw_head contains only
active fallback requests.

If an empty firmware file is supplied via CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE, the build currently succeeds but creates an empty section. While the firmware loader will not return such sections it is better to avoid adding them in the first place. Add a compile-time size check to the filechk_fwbin macro to abort the build early if a 0-size firmware is encountered.

Currently, the builtin firmware loader allows 0-size firmware to be returned successfully to drivers. This differs from all other loading mechanisms (filesystem, sysfs fallback) which reject 0-byte files, and forces drivers to add boilerplate size checks. Modify firmware_request_builtin() to reject 0-size firmware. This will also result in firmware loader falling back to other mechanisms if an empty built-in firmware is present.

- Simplification and improvements to the format auto-selection
mechanism
- Added shared BCLK rate constraints for cross-DAI coordination
ASoC Platforms & Codecs:
- Initial bring-up and power management support for AMD ACP 7.x

HDMI) and MT8196 SoCs, Renesas RZ/G3E, SpacemiT K3, and TI
TAC5xx2/TAS67524
- Added a new generic driver for GPIO-driven amplifiers
- Continued mass conversion of locking code to guard() helpers across
numerous platform drivers (MediaTek, Rockchip, STM32, Samsung, etc)
- Cleanup of legacy non-DT platform data and rollbacks for obsolete
SH Ecovec24/7724se boards
HD- and USB-Audio:
- Device-specific hardware quirks and fixes for various Realtek
HD-Audio devices (Lenovo, HP, ASUS, Acer, Clevo)
- Refinements to Qualcomm USB-audio offloading support
- Front-panel controls and autogain status support for Scarlett Gen 4
- Quirks for XIBERIA (K03S), Sennheiser (MOMENTUM 3), Edifier
(MF200), Novation (Mininova), and Behringer (Flow 8) USB-audio
devices
- Improved robustness by rolling back or propagating write errors to
the mixer control caches (Babyface Pro, US-16x08, Scarlett)
Others:
- Support for the HT-Omega eClaro PCI sound card in the Oxygen driver
- Robustness improvements and fixes for Virtio-audio, Xen-front, and
legacy OSS dmasound drivers"

A recursive locking deadlock can occur in the firmware loader's power
management notification handler.
During system suspend or hibernation preparation, fw_pm_notify() calls
device_cache_fw_images(). This function acquires fw_lock to set the
firmware cache state to FW_LOADER_START_CACHE and then iterates over all
devices using dpm_for_each_dev() while still holding the lock.
For each device, dev_cache_fw_image() schedules asynchronous work to cache
the firmware. If memory allocation for the async work entry fails (e.g., in
out-of-memory conditions), async_schedule_node_domain() falls back to
executing the work function synchronously in the current thread.
The synchronous execution path (__async_dev_cache_fw_image() ->
cache_firmware() -> request_firmware() -> assign_fw()) attempts to acquire
fw_lock again. Since the current thread already holds fw_lock, this results
in a recursive locking deadlock.
Fix this by releasing fw_lock immediately after updating the cache state
and before calling dpm_for_each_dev(). The lock is only needed to protect
the state update. Concurrent firmware requests will correctly see the
FW_LOADER_START_CACHE state and use the piggyback mechanism, which is
independently protected by its own fwc->name_lock.

firmware_upload_register()
-> fw_create_instance()
-> device_initialize()
After fw_create_instance() succeeds, the lifetime of the embedded struct
device is expected to be managed through the device core reference
counting, since fw_create_instance() has already called
device_initialize().
In firmware_upload_register(), if alloc_lookup_fw_priv() fails after
fw_create_instance() succeeds, the code reaches free_fw_sysfs and frees
fw_sysfs directly instead of releasing the device reference with
put_device(). This may leave the reference count of the embedded struct
device unbalanced, resulting in a refcount leak.
The issue was identified by a static analysis tool I developed and
confirmed by manual review. Fix this by using put_device(fw_dev) in the
failure path and letting fw_dev_release() handle the final cleanup,
instead of freeing the instance directly from the error path.

request_firmware_nowait() keeps the callback module pinned and holds a device reference until the firmware work completes. Callers still have no way to cancel or synchronize the queued callback before tearing down their driver-private state. Track scheduled async firmware work in an internal list and add request_firmware_nowait_cancel(). The helper cancels work matching the device, callback context and callback function. It cancels work that has not started yet and waits for an already-running callback to return. If the request has already completed, it is a no-op. Keep the existing request_firmware_nowait() lifetime model manual. A devres-managed variant can be layered on top separately if needed.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>
