dma-debug: Allow multiple invocations of overlapping entries

2026-04-22T11:30:53+00:00

commit eca58535b154e6951327319afda94ac80eae7dc3 upstream.

Repeated DMA mappings with DMA_ATTR_CPU_CACHE_CLEAN trigger the
following splat. This prevents using the attribute in cases where a DMA
region is shared and reused more than seven times.

sched/deadline: Use revised wakeup rule for dl_server

2026-04-22T11:30:43+00:00

[ Upstream commit 14a857056466be9d3d907a94e92a704ac1be149b ]

John noted that commit 115135422562 ("sched/deadline: Fix 'stuck' dl_server")
unfixed the issue from commit a3a70caf7906 ("sched/deadline: Fix dl_server
behaviour").

The issue in commit 115135422562 was for wakeups of the server after the
deadline; in which case you *have* to start a new period. The case for
a3a70caf7906 is wakeups before the deadline.

Now, because the server is effectively running a least-laxity policy, it means
that any wakeup during the runnable phase means dl_entity_overflow() will be
true. This means we need to adjust the runtime to allow it to still run until
the existing deadline expires.

Use the revised wakeup rule for dl_defer entities.

tracing/probe: reject non-closed empty immediate strings

2026-04-22T11:30:38+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4346be6577aaa04586167402ae87bbdbe32484a4 ]

parse_probe_arg() accepts quoted immediate strings and passes the body
after the opening quote to __parse_imm_string(). That helper currently
computes strlen(str) and immediately dereferences str[len - 1], which
underflows when the body is empty and not closed with double-quotation.

Reject empty non-closed immediate strings before checking for the closing quote.

dma-debug: suppress cacheline overlap warning when arch has no DMA alignment requirement

2026-04-22T11:30:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3d48c9fd78dd0b1809669ec49c4d0997b8127512 ]

When CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled, the DMA debug infrastructure
tracks active mappings per cacheline and warns if two different DMA
mappings share the same cacheline ("cacheline tracking EEXIST,
overlapping mappings aren't supported").

On x86_64, ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN defaults to 8, so small kmalloc
allocations (e.g. the 8-byte hub->buffer and hub->status in the USB
hub driver) frequently land in the same 64-byte cacheline.  When both
are DMA-mapped, this triggers a false positive warning.

This has been reported repeatedly since v5.14 (when the EEXIST check
was added) across various USB host controllers and devices including
xhci_hcd with USB hubs, USB audio devices, and USB ethernet adapters.

The cacheline overlap is only a real concern on architectures that
require DMA buffer alignment to cacheline boundaries (i.e. where
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN >= L1_CACHE_BYTES).  On architectures like x86_64
where dma_get_cache_alignment() returns 1, the hardware is
cache-coherent and overlapping cacheline mappings are harmless.

Suppress the EEXIST warning when dma_get_cache_alignment() is less
than L1_CACHE_BYTES, indicating the architecture does not require
cacheline-aligned DMA buffers.

Verified with a kernel module reproducer that performs two kmalloc(8)
allocations back-to-back and DMA-maps both:

  Before: allocations share a cacheline, EEXIST fires within ~50 pairs
  After:  same cacheline pair found, but no warning emitted

dma-debug: track cache clean flag in entries

2026-04-22T11:30:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit d5d846513128c1a3bc2f2d371f6e903177dea443 ]

If a driver is buggy and has 2 overlapping mappings but only
sets cache clean flag on the 1st one of them, we warn.
But if it only does it for the 2nd one, we don't.

Fix by tracking cache clean flag in the entry.

dma-mapping: add DMA_ATTR_CPU_CACHE_CLEAN

2026-04-22T11:30:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit 61868dc55a119a5e4b912d458fc2c48ba80a35fe ]

When multiple small DMA_FROM_DEVICE or DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL buffers share a
cacheline, and DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled, we get this warning:
	cacheline tracking EEXIST, overlapping mappings aren't supported.

This is because when one of the mappings is removed, while another one
is active, CPU might write into the buffer.

Add an attribute for the driver to promise not to do this, making the
overlapping safe, and suppressing the warning.

srcu: Use irq_work to start GP in tiny SRCU

2026-04-22T11:30:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit a6fc88b22bc8d12ad52e8412c667ec0f5bf055af ]

Tiny SRCU's srcu_gp_start_if_needed() directly calls schedule_work(),
which acquires the workqueue pool->lock.

This causes a lockdep splat when call_srcu() is called with a scheduler
lock held, due to:

  call_srcu() [holding pi_lock]
    srcu_gp_start_if_needed()
      schedule_work() -> pool->lock

  workqueue_init() / create_worker() [holding pool->lock]
    wake_up_process() -> try_to_wake_up() -> pi_lock

Also add irq_work_sync() to cleanup_srcu_struct() to prevent a
use-after-free if a queued irq_work fires after cleanup begins.

Tested with rcutorture SRCU-T and no lockdep warnings.

to start process_srcu()" ]

liveupdate: propagate file deserialization failures

2026-04-18T08:46:44+00:00

commit 307e0c5859b0aecc34180468b1aa76684adcf539 upstream.

luo_session_deserialize() ignored the return value from
luo_file_deserialize().  As a result, a session could be left partially
restored even though the /dev/liveupdate open path treats deserialization
failures as fatal.

Propagate the error so a failed file deserialization aborts session
deserialization instead of silently continuing.

workqueue: Add pool_workqueue to pending_pwqs list when unplugging multiple inactive works

2026-04-18T08:46:43+00:00

commit 703ccb63ae9f7444d6ff876d024e17f628103c69 upstream.

In unplug_oldest_pwq(), the first inactive work item on the
pool_workqueue is activated correctly. However, if multiple inactive
works exist on the same pool_workqueue, subsequent works fail to
activate because wq_node_nr_active.pending_pwqs is empty — the list
insertion is skipped when the pool_workqueue is plugged.

Fix this by checking for additional inactive works in
unplug_oldest_pwq() and updating wq_node_nr_active.pending_pwqs
accordingly.

kallsyms: prevent module removal when printing module name and buildid

commit 3b07086444f80c844351255fd94c2cb0a7224df2 upstream.

kallsyms_lookup_buildid() copies the symbol name into the given buffer so
that it can be safely read anytime later.  But it just copies pointers to
mod->name and mod->build_id which might get reused after the related
struct module gets removed.

The lifetime of struct module is synchronized using RCU.  Take the rcu
read lock for the entire __sprint_symbol().
