[ Upstream commit 109aa654f85c5141e813b2cd1bd36d90be678407 ]

Fix a kernel crash with the below call trace when the SCPI firmware
returns OPP count of zero.

dvfs_info.opp_count may be zero on some platforms during the reboot
test, and the kernel will crash after dereferencing the pointer to
kcalloc(info-&gt;count, sizeof(*opp), GFP_KERNEL).

[ Upstream commit e6d654e9f5a97742cfe794b1c4bb5d3fb2d25e98 ]

A prior bugfix that fixes a signed/unsigned error causes
another signed unsigned error.

A situation where log_tbl-&gt;size is invalid can cause the
size passed to memblock_reserve to become negative.

log_size from the main event log is an unsigned int, and
the code reduces to the following

u64 value = (int)unsigned_value;

This results in sign extension, and the value sent to
memblock_reserve becomes effectively negative.

[ Upstream commit aacfa0ef247b0130b7a98bb52378f8cd727a66ca ]

efi_convert_cmdline() always returns a size of at least 1 because it
counts the NUL terminator, so the "cmdline_size == 0" condition is never
satisfied.

Change it to check if the string starts with a NUL character to get the
intended behavior: to use CONFIG_CMDLINE when load_options_size == 0.

When platform_device_register_full() returns error, the gsmi_init() returns
without unregister gsmi_driver_info, fix by add missing

Duplicate opps reported by buggy SCP firmware currently show up
as warnings even though the only functional impact is that the
level/index remain inaccessible. Make it less scary for the end
user by using dev_info instead, along with FW_BUG tag.

Buggy firmware can reply with duplicated PERF opps descriptors.

Ensure that the bad duplicates reported by the platform firmware doesn't
get added to the opp-tables.

Buggy firmware can reply with duplicated PERF opps descriptors.

Ensure that the bad duplicates reported by the platform firmware doesn't
get added to the opp-tables.

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "Here is a (hopefully) final round of arm64 fixes for 6.12 that address
  some user-visible floating point register corruption. Both of the
  Marks have been working on this for a couple of weeks and we've ended
  up in a position where SVE is solid but SME still has enough pending
  issues that the most pragmatic solution for the release and stable
  backports is to disable the feature. Yes, it's a shame, but the
  hardware is rare as hen's teeth at the moment and we're better off
  getting back to a known good state before fixing it all properly.
  We're also improving the selftests for 6.13 to help avoid merging
  broken code in the future.

  Anyway, the good news is that we're removing a lot more code than
  we're adding.

  Summary:

   - Fix handling of SVE traps from userspace on preemptible kernels
     when converting the saved floating point state into SVE state.

   - Remove broken support for the SMCCCv1.3 "SVE discard hint"
     optimisation.

   - Disable SME support, as the current support code suffers from
     numerous issues around signal delivery, ptrace access and
     context-switch which can lead to user-visible corruption of the
     register state"

<id>8c462d56487e3abdbf8a61cedfe7c795a54f4a78</id>
<content type='text'>
SMCCCv1.3 added a hint bit which callers can set in an SMCCC function ID
(AKA "FID") to indicate that it is acceptable for the SMCCC
implementation to discard SVE and/or SME state over a specific SMCCC
call. The kernel support for using this hint is broken and SMCCC calls
may clobber the SVE and/or SME state of arbitrary tasks, though FPSIMD
state is unaffected.

The kernel support is intended to use the hint when there is no SVE or
SME state to save, and to do this it checks whether TIF_FOREIGN_FPSTATE
is set or TIF_SVE is clear in assembly code:

|        ldr     &lt;flags&gt;, [&lt;current_task&gt;, #TSK_TI_FLAGS]
|        tbnz    &lt;flags&gt;, #TIF_FOREIGN_FPSTATE, 1f   // Any live FP state?
|        tbnz    &lt;flags&gt;, #TIF_SVE, 2f               // Does that state include SVE?
|
| 1:     orr     &lt;fid&gt;, &lt;fid&gt;, ARM_SMCCC_1_3_SVE_HINT
| 2:
|        &lt;&lt; SMCCC call using FID &gt;&gt;

This is not safe as-is:

(1) SMCCC calls can be made in a preemptible context and preemption can
    result in TIF_FOREIGN_FPSTATE being set or cleared at arbitrary
    points in time. Thus checking for TIF_FOREIGN_FPSTATE provides no
    guarantee.

(2) TIF_FOREIGN_FPSTATE only indicates that the live FP/SVE/SME state in
    the CPU does not belong to the current task, and does not indicate
    that clobbering this state is acceptable.

    When the live CPU state is clobbered it is necessary to update
    fpsimd_last_state.st to ensure that a subsequent context switch will
    reload FP/SVE/SME state from memory rather than consuming the
    clobbered state. This and the SMCCC call itself must happen in a
    critical section with preemption disabled to avoid races.

(3) Live SVE/SME state can exist with TIF_SVE clear (e.g. with only
    TIF_SME set), and checking TIF_SVE alone is insufficient.

Remove the broken support for the SMCCCv1.3 SVE saving hint. This is
effectively a revert of commits:

* cfa7ff959a78 ("arm64: smccc: Support SMCCC v1.3 SVE register saving hint")
* a7c3acca5380 ("arm64: smccc: Save lr before calling __arm_smccc_sve_check()")

... leaving behind the ARM_SMCCC_VERSION_1_3 and ARM_SMCCC_1_3_SVE_HINT
definitions, since these are simply definitions from the SMCCC
specification, and the latter is used in KVM via ARM_SMCCC_CALL_HINTS.

If we want to bring this back in future, we'll probably want to handle
this logic in C where we can use all the usual FPSIMD/SVE/SME helper
functions, and that'll likely require some rework of the SMCCC code
and/or its callers.

Pull SoC fixes from Arnd Bergmann:
 "Where the last set of fixes was mostly drivers, this time the
  devicetree changes all come at once, targeting mostly the Rockchips,
  Qualcomm and NXP platforms.

  The Qualcomm bugfixes target the Snapdragon X Elite laptops,
  specifically problems with PCIe and NVMe support to improve
  reliability, and a boot regresion on msm8939.

  Also for Snapdragon platforms, there are a number of correctness
  changes in the several platform specific device drivers, but none of
  these are as impactful.

  On the NXP i.MX platform, the fixes are all for 64-bit i.MX8 variants,
  correcting individual entries in the devicetree that were incorrect
  and causing the media, video, mmc and spi drivers to misbehave in
  minor ways.

  The Arm SCMI firmware driver gets fixes for a use-after-free bug and
  for correctly parsing firmware information.

  On the RISC-V side, there are three minor devicetree fixes for
  starfive and sophgo, again addressing only minor mistakes. One device
  driver patch fixes a problem with spurious interrupt handling"
