commit f6564fce256a3944aa1bc76cb3c40e792d97c1eb upstream.

Alexander Potapenko writes in [1]: "For every memory access in the code
instrumented by KMSAN we call kmsan_get_metadata() to obtain the metadata
for the memory being accessed.  For virtual memory the metadata pointers
are stored in the corresponding `struct page`, therefore we need to call
virt_to_page() to get them.

According to the comment in arch/x86/include/asm/page.h,
virt_to_page(kaddr) returns a valid pointer iff virt_addr_valid(kaddr) is
true, so KMSAN needs to call virt_addr_valid() as well.

To avoid recursion, kmsan_get_metadata() must not call instrumented code,
therefore ./arch/x86/include/asm/kmsan.h forks parts of
arch/x86/mm/physaddr.c to check whether a virtual address is valid or not.

But the introduction of rcu_read_lock() to pfn_valid() added instrumented
RCU API calls to virt_to_page_or_null(), which is called by
kmsan_get_metadata(), so there is an infinite recursion now.  I do not
think it is correct to stop that recursion by doing
kmsan_enter_runtime()/kmsan_exit_runtime() in kmsan_get_metadata(): that
would prevent instrumented functions called from within the runtime from
tracking the shadow values, which might introduce false positives."

Fix the issue by switching pfn_valid() to the _sched() variant of
rcu_read_lock/unlock(), which does not require calling into RCU.  Given
the critical section in pfn_valid() is very small, this is a reasonable
trade-off (with preemptible RCU).

KMSAN further needs to be careful to suppress calls into the scheduler,
which would be another source of recursion.  This can be done by wrapping
the call to pfn_valid() into preempt_disable/enable_no_resched().  The
downside is that this sacrifices breaking scheduling guarantees; however,
a kernel compiled with KMSAN has already given up any performance
guarantees due to being heavily instrumented.

Note, KMSAN code already disables tracing via Makefile, and since mmzone.h
is included, it is not necessary to use the notrace variant, which is
generally preferred in all other cases.

<title>thermal: core: Fix thermal zone suspend-resume synchronization</title>

[ Upstream commit 4e814173a8c4f432fd068b1c796f0416328c9d99 ]

There are 3 synchronization issues with thermal zone suspend-resume
during system-wide transitions:

 1. The resume code runs in a PM notifier which is invoked after user
    space has been thawed, so it can run concurrently with user space
    which can trigger a thermal zone device removal.  If that happens,
    the thermal zone resume code may use a stale pointer to the next
    list element and crash, because it does not hold thermal_list_lock
    while walking thermal_tz_list.

 2. The thermal zone resume code calls thermal_zone_device_init()
    outside the zone lock, so user space or an update triggered by
    the platform firmware may see an inconsistent state of a
    thermal zone leading to unexpected behavior.

 3. Clearing the in_suspend global variable in thermal_pm_notify()
    allows __thermal_zone_device_update() to continue for all thermal
    zones and it may as well run before the thermal_tz_list walk (or
    at any point during the list walk for that matter) and attempt to
    operate on a thermal zone that has not been resumed yet.  It may
    also race destructively with thermal_zone_device_init().

To address these issues, add thermal_list_lock locking to
thermal_pm_notify(), especially arount the thermal_tz_list,
make it call thermal_zone_device_init() back-to-back with
__thermal_zone_device_update() under the zone lock and replace
in_suspend with per-zone bool "suspend" indicators set and unset
under the given zone's lock.

[ Upstream commit 84db47ca7146d7bd00eb5cf2b93989a971c84650 ]

Since commit fc137c0ddab2 ("sched/numa: enhance vma scanning logic")

NUMA Balancing allows updating PTEs to trap NUMA hinting faults if the
task had previously accessed VMA. However unconditional scan of VMAs are
allowed during initial phase of VMA creation until process's
mm numa_scan_seq reaches 2 even though current task had not accessed VMA.

Rationale:
 - Without initial scan subsequent PTE update may never happen.
 - Give fair opportunity to all the VMAs to be scanned and subsequently
understand the access pattern of all the VMAs.

But it has a corner case where, if a VMA is created after some time,
process's mm numa_scan_seq could be already greater than 2.

For e.g., values of mm numa_scan_seq when VMAs are created by running
mmtest autonuma benchmark briefly looks like:
start_seq=0 : 459
start_seq=2 : 138
start_seq=3 : 144
start_seq=4 : 8
start_seq=8 : 1
start_seq=9 : 1
This results in no unconditional PTE updates for those VMAs created after
some time.

Fix:
 - Note down the initial value of mm numa_scan_seq in per VMA start_seq.
 - Allow unconditional scan till start_seq + 2.

Result:
SUT: AMD EPYC Milan with 2 NUMA nodes 256 cpus.
base kernel: upstream 6.6-rc6 with Mels patches [1] applied.

<title>x86/entry/ia32: Ensure s32 is sign extended to s64</title>

commit 56062d60f117dccfb5281869e0ab61e090baf864 upstream.

Presently ia32 registers stored in ptregs are unconditionally cast to
unsigned int by the ia32 stub. They are then cast to long when passed to
__se_sys*, but will not be sign extended.

This takes the sign of the syscall argument into account in the ia32
stub. It still casts to unsigned int to avoid implementation specific
behavior. However then casts to int or unsigned int as necessary. So that
the following cast to long sign extends the value.

This fixes the io_pgetevents02 LTP test when compiled with -m32. Presently
the systemcall io_pgetevents_time64() unexpectedly accepts -1 for the
maximum number of events.

It doesn't appear other systemcalls with signed arguments are effected
because they all have compat variants defined and wired up.

Fixes: ebeb8c82ffaf ("syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling for IA32_EMULATION and x32")

[ Upstream commit ec7cc38ef9f83553102e84c82536971a81630739 ]

To enable multicast packets which are offloaded in bridge multicast
offload mode to be sent also to uplink, FTE bit uplink_hairpin_en should
be set. Add this bit to FTE for the bridge multicast offload rules.
