[ Upstream commit 542440fd7b30983cae23e32bd22f69a076ec7ef4 ]

With gcc-14.1, there is a false-postive -Wuninitialized warning in
regcache_maple_drop:

drivers/base/regmap/regcache-maple.c: In function 'regcache_maple_drop':
drivers/base/regmap/regcache-maple.c:113:23: error: 'lower_index' is used uninitialized [-Werror=uninitialized]
  113 |         unsigned long lower_index, lower_last;
      |                       ^~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/base/regmap/regcache-maple.c:113:36: error: 'lower_last' is used uninitialized [-Werror=uninitialized]
  113 |         unsigned long lower_index, lower_last;
      |                                    ^~~~~~~~~~

I've created a reduced test case to see if this needs to be reported
as a gcc, but it appears that the gcc-14.x branch already has a change
that turns this into a more sensible -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning, so
I ended up not reporting it so far.

The reduced test case also produces a warning for gcc-13 and gcc-12
but I don't see that with the version in the kernel.

[ Upstream commit d4ea1d504d2701ba04412f98dc00d45a104c52ab ]

If we ever meet a hardware that uses weird register bits and padding,
we may end up in off-by-one error since x/8 + y/8 might not be equal
to (x + y)/8 in some cases.

bits    pad   x/8+y/8 (x+y)/8
4..7    0..3    0       0 // x + y from 4 up to 7
4..7    4..7    0       1 // x + y from 8 up to 11
4..7    8..11   1       1 // x + y from 12 up to 15
8..15   0..7    1       1 // x + y from 8 up to 15
8..15   8..15   2       2 // x + y from 16 up to 23

Fix this by using (x+y)/8.

<title>driver core: Fix uevent_show() vs driver detach race</title>

commit 15fffc6a5624b13b428bb1c6e9088e32a55eb82c upstream.

uevent_show() wants to de-reference dev-&gt;driver-&gt;name. There is no clean
way for a device attribute to de-reference dev-&gt;driver unless that
attribute is defined via (struct device_driver).dev_groups. Instead, the
anti-pattern of taking the device_lock() in the attribute handler risks
deadlocks with code paths that remove device attributes while holding
the lock.

This deadlock is typically invisible to lockdep given the device_lock()
is marked lockdep_set_novalidate_class(), but some subsystems allocate a
local lockdep key for @dev-&gt;mutex to reveal reports of the form:

 ======================================================

The observation though is that driver objects are typically much longer
lived than device objects. It is reasonable to perform lockless
de-reference of a @driver pointer even if it is racing detach from a
device. Given the infrequency of driver unregistration, use
synchronize_rcu() in module_remove_driver() to close any potential
races.  It is potentially overkill to suffer synchronize_rcu() just to
handle the rare module removal racing uevent_show() event.

commit bd50a974097bb82d52a458bd3ee39fb723129a0c upstream.

It will cause memory leakage when use driver API devm_free_percpu()
to free memory allocated by devm_alloc_percpu(), fixed by using
devres_release() instead of devres_destroy() within devm_free_percpu().

commit c884e3249f753dcef7a2b2023541ac1dc46b318e upstream.

Driver API devm_krealloc() calls alloc_dr() with wrong argument
@total_new_size, so causes more memory to be allocated than required
fix this memory waste by using @new_size as the argument for alloc_dr().

[ Upstream commit 611b7eb19d0a305d4de00280e4a71a1b15c507fc ]

Currently, when an adapter defines a max_write_len quirk,
the data will be chunked into data sizes equal to the
max_write_len quirk value.  But the payload will be increased by
the size of the register address before transmission.  The
resulting value always ends up larger than the limit set
by the quirk.

Avoid this error by setting regmap's max_write to the quirk's
max_write_len minus the number of bytes for the register and
padding.  This allows the chunking to work correctly for this
limited case without impacting other use-cases.

<title>drivers: core: synchronize really_probe() and dev_uevent()</title>

commit c0a40097f0bc81deafc15f9195d1fb54595cd6d0 upstream.

Synchronize the dev-&gt;driver usage in really_probe() and dev_uevent().
These can run in different threads, what can result in the following
race condition for dev-&gt;driver uninitialization:

Thread #1:
==========

really_probe() {
...
probe_failed:
...
device_unbind_cleanup(dev) {
    ...
    dev-&gt;driver = NULL;   // &lt;= Failed probe sets dev-&gt;driver to NULL
    ...
    }
...
}

Thread #2:
==========

dev_uevent() {
...
if (dev-&gt;driver)
      // If dev-&gt;driver is NULLed from really_probe() from here on,
      // after above check, the system crashes
      add_uevent_var(env, "DRIVER=%s", dev-&gt;driver-&gt;name);
...
}

really_probe() holds the lock, already. So nothing needs to be done
there. dev_uevent() is called with lock held, often, too. But not
always. What implies that we can't add any locking in dev_uevent()
itself. So fix this race by adding the lock to the non-protected
path. This is the path where above race is observed:

 dev_uevent+0x235/0x380
 uevent_show+0x10c/0x1f0  &lt;= Add lock here
 dev_attr_show+0x3a/0xa0
 sysfs_kf_seq_show+0x17c/0x250
 kernfs_seq_show+0x7c/0x90
 seq_read_iter+0x2d7/0x940
 kernfs_fop_read_iter+0xc6/0x310
 vfs_read+0x5bc/0x6b0
 ksys_read+0xeb/0x1b0
 __x64_sys_read+0x42/0x50
 x64_sys_call+0x27ad/0x2d30
 do_syscall_64+0xcd/0x1d0
 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f

Similar cases are reported by syzkaller in

https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=ffa8143439596313a85a

But these are regarding the *initialization* of dev-&gt;driver

dev-&gt;driver = drv;

As this switches dev-&gt;driver to non-NULL these reports can be considered
to be false-positives (which should be "fixed" by this commit, as well,
though).

The same issue was reported and tried to be fixed back in 2015 in

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1421259054-2574-1-git-send-email-a.sangwan@samsung.com/

[ Upstream commit 85d2b0aa170351380be39fe4ff7973df1427fe76 ]

The sysfs_create_link() return code is marked as __must_check, but the
module_add_driver() function tries hard to not care, by assigning the
return code to a variable. When building with 'make W=1', gcc still
warns because this variable is only assigned but not used:

drivers/base/module.c: In function 'module_add_driver':
drivers/base/module.c:36:6: warning: variable 'no_warn' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

Rework the code to properly unwind and return the error code to the
caller. My reading of the original code was that it tries to
not fail when the links already exist, so keep ignoring -EEXIST
errors.

[ Upstream commit 70ee853eec5693fefd8348a2b049d9cb83362e58 ]

Add a regmap_read_bypassed() to allow reads from the hardware registers
while the regmap is in cache-only mode.

A typical use for this is to keep the cache in cache-only mode until
the hardware has reached a valid state, but one or more status registers
must be polled to determine when this state is reached.

For example, firmware download on the cs35l56 can take several seconds if
there are multiple amps sharing limited bus bandwidth. This is too long
to block in probe() so it is done as a background task. The device must
be soft-reset to reboot the firmware and during this time the registers are
not accessible, so the cache should be in cache-only. But the driver must
poll a register to detect when reboot has completed.
