commit 2c1030f2e84885cc58bffef6af67d5b9d2e7098f upstream.

Replace non-atomic vm-&gt;process_info assignment with cmpxchg()
to prevent race when parent/child processes sharing a drm_file
both try to acquire the same VM after fork().

[ Upstream commit 096bb75e13cc508d3915b7604e356bcb12b17766 ]

On Intel MacBookPros with switchable graphics, when the iGPU
is enabled, the address of VRAM gets put at 0 in the dGPU's
virtual address space.  This is non-standard and seems to cause
issues with the cursor if it ends up at 0.  We have the framework
to reserve memory at 0 in the address space, so enable it here if
the vram start address is 0.

Tune the sleep interval in the PSP fence wait loop from 10-100us to
60-100us.This adjustment results in an overall wait window of 1.2s
(60us * 20000 iterations) to 2 seconds (100us * 20000 iterations),

[ Upstream commit af26fa751c2eef66916acbf0d3c3e9159da56186 ]

vcn_v2_0_start_sriov() declares a local variable "i" initialized to zero
and uses it only as the instance index in SOC15_REG_OFFSET(UVD, i, ...).
The value is never changed and all other fields are taken from
adev-&gt;vcn.inst[0], so this path only ever programs VCN instance 0.

This triggered a Smatch:
warn: iterator 'i' not incremented

Replace the dummy iterator with an explicit instance index of 0 in
SOC15_REG_OFFSET() calls.

<title>drm/amdgpu: use atomic functions with memory barriers for vm fault info</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 6df8e84aa6b5b1812cc2cacd6b3f5ccbb18cda2b ]

The atomic variable vm_fault_info_updated is used to synchronize access to
adev-&gt;gmc.vm_fault_info between the interrupt handler and
get_vm_fault_info().

The default atomic functions like atomic_set() and atomic_read() do not
provide memory barriers. This allows for CPU instruction reordering,
meaning the memory accesses to vm_fault_info and the vm_fault_info_updated
flag are not guaranteed to occur in the intended order. This creates a
race condition that can lead to inconsistent or stale data being used.

The previous implementation, which used an explicit mb(), was incomplete
and inefficient. It failed to account for all potential CPU reorderings,
such as the access of vm_fault_info being reordered before the atomic_read
of the flag. This approach is also more verbose and less performant than
using the proper atomic functions with acquire/release semantics.

Fix this by switching to atomic_set_release() and atomic_read_acquire().
These functions provide the necessary acquire and release semantics,
which act as memory barriers to ensure the correct order of operations.
It is also more efficient and idiomatic than using explicit full memory
barriers.

<title>minmax: make generic MIN() and MAX() macros available everywhere</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 1a251f52cfdc417c84411a056bc142cbd77baef4 ]

This just standardizes the use of MIN() and MAX() macros, with the very
traditional semantics.  The goal is to use these for C constant
expressions and for top-level / static initializers, and so be able to
simplify the min()/max() macros.

These macro names were used by various kernel code - they are very
traditional, after all - and all such users have been fixed up, with a
few different approaches:

 - trivial duplicated macro definitions have been removed

   Note that 'trivial' here means that it's obviously kernel code that
   already included all the major kernel headers, and thus gets the new
   generic MIN/MAX macros automatically.

 - non-trivial duplicated macro definitions are guarded with #ifndef

   This is the "yes, they define their own versions, but no, the include
   situation is not entirely obvious, and maybe they don't get the
   generic version automatically" case.

 - strange use case #1

   A couple of drivers decided that the way they want to describe their
   versioning is with

	#define MAJ 1
	#define MIN 2
	#define DRV_VERSION __stringify(MAJ) "." __stringify(MIN)

   which adds zero value and I just did my Alexander the Great
   impersonation, and rewrote that pointless Gordian knot as

	#define DRV_VERSION "1.2"

   instead.

 - strange use case #2

   A couple of drivers thought that it's a good idea to have a random
   'MIN' or 'MAX' define for a value or index into a table, rather than
   the traditional macro that takes arguments.

   These values were re-written as C enum's instead. The new
   function-line macros only expand when followed by an open
   parenthesis, and thus don't clash with enum use.

Happily, there weren't really all that many of these cases, and a lot of
users already had the pattern of using '#ifndef' guarding (or in one
case just using '#undef MIN') before defining their own private version
that does the same thing. I left such cases alone.

[ Upstream commit c661219cd7be75bb5599b525f16a455a058eb516 ]

Unlike later versions, UVD 3 has firmware validation.
For this to work, the UVD should be powered up correctly.

When DPM is enabled and the display clock is off,
the SMU may choose a power state which doesn't power
the UVD, which can result in failure to initialize UVD.

v2:
Add code comments to explain about the UVD power state
and how UVD clock is turned on/off.

Fixes: b38f3e80ecec ("drm amdgpu: SI UVD v3_1 (v2)")

[ Upstream commit 7838fb5f119191403560eca2e23613380c0e425e ]

Commit b61badd20b44 ("drm/amdgpu: fix usage slab after free")
reordered when amdgpu_fence_driver_sw_fini() was called after
that patch, amdgpu_fence_driver_sw_fini() effectively became
a no-op as the sched entities we never freed because the
ring pointers were already set to NULL.  Remove the NULL
setting.
