commit efb78fa86e95 ("lib/test_meminit: allocate pages up to order
MAX_ORDER") works great in kernels 6.4 and newer thanks to commit
23baf831a32c ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely"), but for older
kernels, the loop is off by one, which causes crashes when the test
runs.

Fix this up by changing "&lt;= MAX_ORDER" "&lt; MAX_ORDER" to allow the test
to work properly for older kernel branches.

<title>kobject: Add sanity check for kset-&gt;kobj.ktype in kset_register()</title>

[ Upstream commit 4d0fe8c52bb3029d83e323c961221156ab98680b ]

When I register a kset in the following way:
	static struct kset my_kset;
	kobject_set_name(&amp;my_kset.kobj, "my_kset");
        ret = kset_register(&amp;my_kset);

A null pointer dereference exception is occurred:
[ 4453.568337] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at \
virtual address 0000000000000028
... ...
[ 4453.810361] Call trace:
[ 4453.813062]  kobject_get_ownership+0xc/0x34
[ 4453.817493]  kobject_add_internal+0x98/0x274

[ 4453.825820]  my_kobj_init+0x44/0x1000 [my_kset]
... ...

Because I didn't initialize my_kset.kobj.ktype.

According to the description in Documentation/core-api/kobject.rst:
 - A ktype is the type of object that embeds a kobject.  Every structure
   that embeds a kobject needs a corresponding ktype.

So add sanity check to make sure kset-&gt;kobj.ktype is not NULL.

[ Upstream commit 9e47a758b70167c9301d2b44d2569f86c7796f2d ]

During NVMeTCP Authentication a controller can trigger a kernel
oops by specifying the 8192 bit Diffie Hellman group and passing
a correctly sized, but zeroed Diffie Hellamn value.
mpi_cmp_ui() was detecting this if the second parameter was 0,
but 1 is passed from dh_is_pubkey_valid(). This causes the null
pointer u-&gt;d to be dereferenced towards the end of mpi_cmp_ui()

<title>lib: test_scanf: Add explicit type cast to result initialization in test_number_prefix()</title>

commit 92382d744176f230101d54f5c017bccd62770f01 upstream.

A recent change in clang allows it to consider more expressions as
compile time constants, which causes it to point out an implicit
conversion in the scanf tests:

  lib/test_scanf.c:661:2: warning: implicit conversion from 'int' to 'unsigned char' changes value from -168 to 88 [-Wconstant-conversion]
    661 |         test_number_prefix(unsigned char,       "0xA7", "%2hhx%hhx", 0, 0xa7, 2, check_uchar);
        |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  lib/test_scanf.c:609:29: note: expanded from macro 'test_number_prefix'
    609 |         T result[2] = {~expect[0], ~expect[1]};                                 \
        |                       ~            ^~~~~~~~~~
  1 warning generated.

The result of the bitwise negation is the type of the operand after
going through the integer promotion rules, so this truncation is
expected but harmless, as the initial values in the result array get
overwritten by _test() anyways. Add an explicit cast to the expected
type in test_number_prefix() to silence the warning. There is no
functional change, as all the tests still pass with GCC 13.1.0 and clang
18.0.0.

commit efb78fa86e95832b78ca0ba60f3706788a818938 upstream.

test_pages() tests the page allocator by calling alloc_pages() with
different orders up to order 10.

However, different architectures and platforms support different maximum
contiguous allocation sizes.  The default maximum allocation order
(MAX_ORDER) is 10, but architectures can use CONFIG_ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER
to override this.  On platforms where this is less than 10, test_meminit()
will blow up with a WARN().  This is expected, so let's not do that.

Replace the hardcoded "10" with the MAX_ORDER macro so that we test
allocations up to the expected platform limit.

commit d59070d1076ec5114edb67c87658aeb1d691d381 upstream.

Recent versions of clang warn about an unused variable, though older
versions saw the 'slot++' as a use and did not warn:

radix-tree.c:1136:50: error: parameter 'slot' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-parameter]

It's clearly not needed any more, so just remove it.

commit 382d4cd1847517ffcb1800fd462b625db7b2ebea upstream.

The gcc compiler translates on some architectures the 64-bit
__builtin_clzll() function to a call to the libgcc function __clzdi2(),
which should take a 64-bit parameter on 32- and 64-bit platforms.

But in the current kernel code, the built-in __clzdi2() function is
defined to operate (wrongly) on 32-bit parameters if BITS_PER_LONG ==
32, thus the return values on 32-bit kernels are in the range from
[0..31] instead of the expected [0..63] range.

This patch fixes the in-kernel functions __clzdi2() and __ctzdi2() to
take a 64-bit parameter on 32-bit kernels as well, thus it makes the
functions identical for 32- and 64-bit kernels.

This bug went unnoticed since kernel 3.11 for over 10 years, and here
are some possible reasons for that:

 a) Some architectures have assembly instructions to count the bits and
    which are used instead of calling __clzdi2(), e.g. on x86 the bsr
    instruction and on ppc cntlz is used. On such architectures the
    wrong __clzdi2() implementation isn't used and as such the bug has
    no effect and won't be noticed.

 b) Some architectures link to libgcc.a, and the in-kernel weak
    functions get replaced by the correct 64-bit variants from libgcc.a.

 c) __builtin_clzll() and __clzdi2() doesn't seem to be used in many
    places in the kernel, and most likely only in uncritical functions,
    e.g. when printing hex values via seq_put_hex_ll(). The wrong return
    value will still print the correct number, but just in a wrong
    formatting (e.g. with too many leading zeroes).

 d) 32-bit kernels aren't used that much any longer, so they are less
    tested.

A trivial testcase to verify if the currently running 32-bit kernel is
affected by the bug is to look at the output of /proc/self/maps:

Here the kernel uses a correct implementation of __clzdi2():

  root@debian:~# cat /proc/self/maps
  00010000-00019000 r-xp 00000000 08:05 787324     /usr/bin/cat
  00019000-0001a000 rwxp 00009000 08:05 787324     /usr/bin/cat

  ...

[ Upstream commit 7dae593cd226a0bca61201cf85ceb9335cf63682 ]

In a couple of situations like

	name = kstrndup(buf, count, GFP_KERNEL);
	if (!name)
		return -ENOSPC;

the error is not actually "No space left on device", but "Out of memory".

It is semantically correct to return -ENOMEM in all failed kstrndup()
and kzalloc() cases in this driver, as it is not a problem with disk
space, but with kernel memory allocator failing allocation.

The semantically correct should be:

        name = kstrndup(buf, count, GFP_KERNEL);
        if (!name)
                return -ENOMEM;

<title>lib/ts_bm: reset initial match offset for every block of text</title>

[ Upstream commit 6f67fbf8192da80c4db01a1800c7fceaca9cf1f9 ]

The `shift` variable which indicates the offset in the string at which
to start matching the pattern is initialized to `bm-&gt;patlen - 1`, but it
is not reset when a new block is retrieved.  This means the implemen-
tation may start looking at later and later positions in each successive
block and miss occurrences of the pattern at the beginning.  E.g.,
consider a HTTP packet held in a non-linear skb, where the HTTP request
line occurs in the second block:

  [... 52 bytes of packet headers ...]
  GET /bmtest HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.example.com\r\n\r\n

and the pattern is "GET /bmtest".

Once the first block comprising the packet headers has been examined,
`shift` will be pointing to somewhere near the end of the block, and so
when the second block is examined the request line at the beginning will
be missed.

Reinitialize the variable for each new block.
