[ Upstream commit 240fd405528bbf7fafa0559202ca7aa524c9cd96 ]

Add support for the independent control state machine per IEEE
802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing implementation of the
coupled control state machine.

Introduces two new states, AD_MUX_COLLECTING and AD_MUX_DISTRIBUTING in
the LACP MUX state machine for separated handling of an initial
Collecting state before the Collecting and Distributing state. This
enables a port to be in a state where it can receive incoming packets
while not still distributing. This is useful for reducing packet loss when
a port begins distributing before its partner is able to collect.

Added new functions such as bond_set_slave_tx_disabled_flags and
bond_set_slave_rx_enabled_flags to precisely manage the port's collecting
and distributing states. Previously, there was no dedicated method to
disable TX while keeping RX enabled, which this patch addresses.

Note that the regular flow process in the kernel's bonding driver remains
unaffected by this patch. The extension requires explicit opt-in by the
user (in order to ensure no disruptions for existing setups) via netlink
support using the new bonding parameter coupled_control. The default value
for coupled_control is set to 1 so as to preserve existing behaviour.

[ Upstream commit 5634c8cb298a7146b4e38873473e280b50e27a2c ]

The current iosys_map_clear() implementation reads the potentially
uninitialized 'is_iomem' boolean field to decide which union member
to clear. This causes undefined behavior when called on uninitialized
structures, as 'is_iomem' may contain garbage values like 0xFF.

UBSAN detects this as:
    UBSAN: invalid-load in include/linux/iosys-map.h:267
    load of value 255 is not a valid value for type '_Bool'

Fix by unconditionally clearing the entire structure with memset(),
eliminating the need to read uninitialized data and ensuring all
fields are set to known good values.

Closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/i915/kernel/-/issues/14639

[ Upstream commit 8ea815399c3fcce1889bd951fec25b5b9a3979c1 ]

__ADDRESSABLE_ASM_STR() is where the necessary stringification happens.
As long as "sym" doesn't contain any odd characters, no quoting is
required for its use with .quad / .long. In fact the quotation gets in
the way with gas 2.25; it's only from 2.26 onwards that quoted symbols
are half-way properly supported.

However, assembly being different from C anyway, drop
__ADDRESSABLE_ASM_STR() and its helper macro altogether. A simple
.global directive will suffice to get the symbol "declared", i.e. into
the symbol table. While there also stop open-coding STATIC_CALL_TRAMP()
and STATIC_CALL_KEY().

commit 1f023007f5e782bda19ad9104830c404fd622c5d upstream.

Use the new capacity_ref_freq() method to set the ratio that is used by AMU for
computing the arch_scale_freq_capacity().
This helps to keep everything aligned using the same reference for
computing CPUs capacity.

The default value of the ratio (stored in per_cpu(arch_max_freq_scale))
ensures that arch_scale_freq_capacity() returns max capacity until it is
set to its correct value with the cpu capacity and capacity_ref_freq().

commit 15cbbd1d317e07b4e5c6aca5d4c5579539a82784 upstream.

The last item of a performance domain is not always the performance point
that has been used to compute CPU's capacity. This can lead to different
target frequency compared with other part of the system like schedutil and
would result in wrong energy estimation.

A new arch_scale_freq_ref() is available to return a fixed and coherent
frequency reference that can be used when computing the CPU's frequency
for an level of utilization. Use this function to get this reference
frequency.

Energy model is never used without defining arch_scale_freq_ref() but
can be compiled. Define a default arch_scale_freq_ref() returning 0
in such case.

cpuinfo.max_freq can change at runtime because of boost as an example. This
implies that the value could be different from the frequency that has been

The new arch_scale_freq_ref() returns a fixed and coherent frequency

commit 9942cb22ea458c34fa17b73d143ea32d4df1caca upstream.

Create a new method to get a unique and fixed max frequency. Currently
cpuinfo.max_freq or the highest (or last) state of performance domain are
used as the max frequency when computing the frequency for a level of
utilization, but:

  - cpuinfo_max_freq can change at runtime. boost is one example of
    such change.

  - cpuinfo.max_freq and last item of the PD can be different leading to
    different results between cpufreq and energy model.

We need to save the reference frequency that has been used when computing
the CPUs capacity and use this fixed and coherent value to convert between
frequency and CPU's capacity.

In fact, we already save the frequency that has been used when computing
the capacity of each CPU. We extend the precision to save kHz instead of
MHz currently and we modify the type to be aligned with other variables
used when converting frequency to capacity and the other way.

<title>PM: runtime: Simplify pm_runtime_get_if_active() usage</title>

[ Upstream commit c0ef3df8dbaef51ee4cfd58a471adf2eaee6f6b3 ]

There are two ways to opportunistically increment a device's runtime PM
usage count, calling either pm_runtime_get_if_active() or
pm_runtime_get_if_in_use(). The former has an argument to tell whether to
ignore the usage count or not, and the latter simply calls the former with
ign_usage_count set to false. The other users that want to ignore the
usage_count will have to explicitly set that argument to true which is a
bit cumbersome.

To make this function more practical to use, remove the ign_usage_count
argument from the function. The main implementation is in a static
function called pm_runtime_get_conditional() and implementations of
pm_runtime_get_if_active() and pm_runtime_get_if_in_use() are moved to
runtime.c.

[ Upstream commit ca283ea9920ac20ae23ed398b693db3121045019 ]

Continue adding const to parameters.  This is for clarity and minor
addition to safety. There are some minor effects, in the assembly code
and .ko measured on release config.
