<content type='text'>
The SMBus block transfer length data-&gt;block[0] is validated in
i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() but that check runs too late for tracepoints
and is skipped entirely when the adapter provides a native smbus_xfer
implementation. This allows user-controlled oversized block lengths to
reach tracepoint memcpy calls and driver callbacks unchecked.

Add an early validation in __i2c_smbus_xfer() that rejects block
transfers whose caller-supplied length is zero or exceeds
I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX before any tracepoint fires or driver callback
runs. data-&gt;block[0] is filled in by the device on SMBus block reads,
so the check is scoped to operations where the length is actually
supplied by the caller. This is consistent with the existing -EINVAL
convention in the emulated path and protects all downstream consumers
at once: the smbus_write tracepoint, all native smbus_xfer driver
implementations, and the emulated path.

Two distinct bugs are fixed by this change:

Bug 1: smbus_write tracepoint OOB (include/trace/events/smbus.h)
  trace_smbus_write() fires before any validation and copies
  data-&gt;block[0]+1 bytes into a 34-byte event buffer. With
  block[0]=0xfe the tracepoint copies 255 bytes, overflowing by 221.

Bug 2: i2c-stub I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA OOB (drivers/i2c/i2c-stub.c)
  stub_xfer() implements .smbus_xfer directly and only clamps
  block[0] against 256-command, not I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX. With
  block[0]=0xff and command=0 the loop accesses block[1+i] for
  i up to 254, far past the 34-byte union.

<content type='text'>
The I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA case in stub_xfer() uses data-&gt;block[0]
as the transfer length. The existing check only clamps it to avoid
overrunning the chip-&gt;words[256] register array, but does not validate
it against I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which is the limit of the union
i2c_smbus_data.block buffer (34 bytes total). The driver is a
development/test tool (CONFIG_I2C_STUB=m, not built by default)
that must be loaded with a chip_addr= parameter.

A local user with access to /dev/i2c-* can issue an I2C_SMBUS ioctl
with I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA and data-&gt;block[0] &gt; 32, causing
stub_xfer() to read or write past the end of the union
i2c_smbus_data.block buffer:

 BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in stub_xfer (drivers/i2c/i2c-stub.c:223)

  &lt;/TASK&gt;

The bug exists because i2c-stub implements .smbus_xfer directly,
bypassing the I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX validation in
i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated(). The I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA case in the same
function correctly validates against I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX, but the
I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA case does not.

Fix by rejecting transfers with data-&gt;block[0] == 0 or

both the I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA case in the same function and the

<title>i2c: dev: prevent integer overflow in I2C_TIMEOUT ioctl</title>

While fuzzing with Syzkaller, a persistent `schedule_timeout: wrong
timeout value` warning was observed, accompanied by SMBus controller
state machine corruption.

The I2C_TIMEOUT ioctl accepts a user-provided timeout in multiples of
10 ms. The user argument is checked against INT_MAX, but it is
subsequently multiplied by 10 before being passed to msecs_to_jiffies().

A malicious user can pass a large value (e.g., 429496729) that passes
the `arg &gt; INT_MAX` check but overflows when multiplied by 10. This
results in a truncated 32-bit unsigned value that bypasses the
internal `(int)m &lt; 0` check in `msecs_to_jiffies()`.

The truncated value is then assigned to `client-&gt;adapter-&gt;timeout`
(a signed 32-bit int), which is reinterpreted as a negative number.
When passed to wait_for_completion_timeout(), this negative value
undergoes sign extension to a 64-bit unsigned long, triggering the
`schedule_timeout` warning and causing premature returns. This leaves
the SMBus state machine in an unrecoverable state, constituting a
local Denial of Service (DoS).

Fix this by bounding the user argument to `INT_MAX / 10`.

The ELAN0678 touchpad (04F3:3195) found in the Lenovo ThinkPad X13
exhibits excessive smoothing when the I2C bus runs at 400KHz, making
the touchpad feel sluggish when plugged into AC power. This is the
same issue previously fixed for ELAN06FA.

The device's ACPI table (Lenovo TP-R22) specifies 0x00061A80 (400KHz)
for the I2cSerialBusV2 descriptor. Forcing the bus to 100KHz eliminates
the sluggish behavior.

<title>i2c: stm32f7: reinit_completion() per transfer not per msg</title>

<id>02b7cd683892d8d8464815d69a3a76579909a726</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the driver may repeatedly call reinit_completion() during
transfer which contains multiple messages, while another thread is
waiting for the completion.

This happens during transfer with more than 1 message, invoked via
stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core() -&gt; stm32f7_i2c_xfer_msg(). After invoking the
stm32f7_i2c_xfer_msg() to start transfer, stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core()
calls wait_for_completion_timeout() to wait for completion of the
transfer of all messages. When the first message transfer completes,
the hard IRQ handler triggers, and detects transfer completion, which
leads to stm32f7_i2c_isr_event_thread() IRQ thread being started. The
stm32f7_i2c_isr_event_thread() calls stm32f7_i2c_xfer_msg() in case
there are more messages.

Without this change, the second and later stm32f7_i2c_xfer_msg() would
call reinit_completion() on the completion which is still being waited
for in stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core(). Fix this by moving the reinit_completion()
into stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core(), together with wait_for_completion_timeout().

Since stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core() now waits for completion of the entire
transfer, increase the default timeout. This fixes sporadic transfer
timeouts on STM32MP25xx during kernel boot.

transfer which contains multiple messages, while another thread is
waiting for the completion.

This happens during transfer with more than 1 message, invoked via
stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core() -&gt; stm32f7_i2c_xfer_msg(). After invoking the
stm32f7_i2c_xfer_msg() to start transfer, stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core()
calls wait_for_completion_timeout() to wait for completion of the
transfer of all messages. When the first message transfer completes,
the hard IRQ handler triggers, and detects transfer completion, which
leads to stm32f7_i2c_isr_event_thread() IRQ thread being started. The
stm32f7_i2c_isr_event_thread() calls stm32f7_i2c_xfer_msg() in case
there are more messages.

Without this change, the second and later stm32f7_i2c_xfer_msg() would
call reinit_completion() on the completion which is still being waited
for in stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core(). Fix this by moving the reinit_completion()
into stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core(), together with wait_for_completion_timeout().

Since stm32f7_i2c_xfer_core() now waits for completion of the entire
transfer, increase the default timeout. This fixes sporadic transfer
timeouts on STM32MP25xx during kernel boot.

<title>i2c: testunit: Replace system_long_wq with system_dfl_long_wq</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently the code enqueue work items using {queue|mod}_delayed_work(),
using system_long_wq. This workqueue should be used when long works are
expected, but it is a per-cpu workqueue.

This is important because queue_delayed_work() queue the work using:

   queue_delayed_work_on(WORK_CPU_UNBOUND, ...);

Note that WORK_CPU_UNBOUND = NR_CPUS.

This would end up calling __queue_delayed_work() that does:

    if (housekeeping_enabled(HK_TYPE_TIMER)) {
    //      [....]
    } else {
            if (likely(cpu == WORK_CPU_UNBOUND))
                    add_timer_global(timer);
            else
                    add_timer_on(timer, cpu);
    }

So when cpu == WORK_CPU_UNBOUND the timer is global and is
not using a specific CPU. Later, when __queue_work() is called:

    if (req_cpu == WORK_CPU_UNBOUND) {
            if (wq-&gt;flags &amp; WQ_UNBOUND)
                    cpu = wq_select_unbound_cpu(raw_smp_processor_id());
            else
                    cpu = raw_smp_processor_id();
    }

Because the wq is not unbound, it takes the CPU where the timer
fired and enqueue the work on that CPU.
The consequence of all of this is that the work can run anywhere,
depending on where the timer fired.

Recently, a new unbound workqueue specific for long running work has
been added:

    c116737e972e ("workqueue: Add system_dfl_long_wq for long unbound works")

So change system_long_wq with system_dfl_long_wq so that the work may
benefit from scheduler task placement.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix printf format warning for bprintf

   sunrpc uses a trace_printk() that triggers a printf warning during
   the compile. Move the __printf() attribute around for when debugging
   is not enabled the warning will go away

 - Remove redundant check for EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED in
   event_filter_write()

   The FREED flag is checked in the call to event_file_file() and then
   checked again right afterward, which is unneeded

 - Clean up event_file_file() and event_file_data() helpers

   These helper functions played a different role in the past, but now
   with eventfs, the READ_ONCE() isn't needed. Simplify the code a bit
   and also add a warning to event_file_data() if the file or its data
   is not present

 - Remove updating file-&gt;private_data in tracing open

   All access to the file private data is handled by the helper
   functions, which do not use file-&gt;private_data. Stop updating it on
   open

 - Show ENUM names in function arguments via BTF in function tracing

   When showing the function arguments when func-args option is set for
   function tracing, if one of the arguments is found to be an enum,
   show the name of the enum instead of its number

 - Add new trace_call__##name() API for tracepoints

   Tracepoints are enabled via static_branch() blocks, where when not
   enabled, there's only a nop that is in the code where the execution
   will just skip over it. When tracing is enabled, the nop is converted
   to a direct jump to the tracepoint code. Sometimes more calculations
   are required to be performed to update the parameters of the
   tracepoint. In this case, trace_##name##_enabled() is called which is
   a static_branch() that gets enabled only when the tracepoint is
   enabled. This allows the extra calculations to also be skipped by the
   nop:

	if (trace_foo_enabled()) {
		x = bar();
		trace_foo(x);
	}

   Where the x=bar() is only performed when foo is enabled. The problem
   with this approach is that there's now two static_branch() calls. One
   for checking if the tracepoint is enabled, and then again to know if
   the tracepoint should be called. The second one is redundant

   Introduce trace_call__foo() that will call the foo() tracepoint
   directly without doing a static_branch():

	if (trace_foo_enabled()) {
		x = bar();
		trace_call__foo();
	}

 - Update various locations to use the new trace_call__##name() API

 - Move snapshot code out of trace.c

   Cleaning up trace.c to not be a "dump all", move the snapshot code
   out of it and into a new trace_snapshot.c file

 - Clean up some "%*.s" to "%*s"

 - Allow boot kernel command line options to be called multiple times

   Have options like:

	ftrace_filter=foo ftrace_filter=bar ftrace_filter=zoo

   Equal to:

	ftrace_filter=foo,bar,zoo

 - Fix ipi_raise event CPU field to be a CPU field

   The ipi_raise target_cpus field is defined as a __bitmask(). There is
   now a __cpumask() field definition. Update the field to use that

 - Have hist_field_name() use a snprintf() and not a series of strcat()

   It's safer to use snprintf() that a series of strcat()

 - Fix tracepoint regfunc balancing

   A tracepoint can define a "reg" and "unreg" function that gets called
   before the tracepoint is enabled, and after it is disabled
   respectively. But on error, after the "reg" func is called and the
   tracepoint is not enabled, the "unreg" function is not called to tear
   down what the "reg" function performed

 - Fix output that shows what histograms are enabled

   Event variables are displayed incorrectly in the histogram output

   Instead of "sched.sched_wakeup.$var", it is showing
   "$sched.sched_wakeup.var" where the '$' is in the incorrect location

 - Some other simple cleanups
