<id>292a089d78d3e2f7944e60bb897c977785a321e3</id>
<content type='text'>
Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
called "shutdown".  After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
longer be re-armed.

The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
object holding the timer is freed.  It also ignores any locations where
the timer-&gt;function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
as that is not considered a "trivial" case.

This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following
commands:

    $ cat timer.cocci
    @@
    expression ptr, slab;
    identifier timer, rfield;
    @@
    (
    -       del_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    +       timer_shutdown(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    |
    -       del_timer_sync(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    +       timer_shutdown_sync(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    )
      ... when strict
          when != ptr-&gt;timer
    (
            kfree_rcu(ptr, rfield);
    |
            kmem_cache_free(slab, ptr);
    |
            kfree(ptr);
    )

    $ spatch timer.cocci . &gt; /tmp/t.patch
    $ patch -p1 &lt; /tmp/t.patch

<content type='text'>
Since moving to memalloc_nofs_save/restore, SUNRPC has stopped setting the
GFP_NOIO flag on sk_allocation which the networking system uses to decide
when it is safe to use current-&gt;task_frag.  The results of this are
unexpected corruption in task_frag when SUNRPC is involved in memory
reclaim.

The corruption can be seen in crashes, but the root cause is often
difficult to ascertain as a crashing machine's stack trace will have no
evidence of being near NFS or SUNRPC code.  I believe this problem to
be much more pervasive than reports to the community may indicate.

Fix this by having kernel users of sockets that may corrupt task_frag due
to reclaim set sk_use_task_frag = false.  Preemptively correcting this
situation for users that still set sk_allocation allows them to convert to
memalloc_nofs_save/restore without the same unexpected corruptions that are
sure to follow, unlikely to show up in testing, and difficult to bisect.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.2-rc1.

  The "big" change in here is the addition of a new macro,
  container_of_const() that will preserve the "const-ness" of a pointer
  passed into it.

  The "problem" of the current container_of() macro is that if you pass
  in a "const *", out of it can comes a non-const pointer unless you
  specifically ask for it. For many usages, we want to preserve the
  "const" attribute by using the same call. For a specific example, this
  series changes the kobj_to_dev() macro to use it, allowing it to be
  used no matter what the const value is. This prevents every subsystem
  from having to declare 2 different individual macros (i.e.
  kobj_const_to_dev() and kobj_to_dev()) and having the compiler enforce
  the const value at build time, which having 2 macros would not do
  either.

  The driver for all of this have been discussions with the Rust kernel
  developers as to how to properly mark driver core, and kobject,
  objects as being "non-mutable". The changes to the kobject and driver
  core in this pull request are the result of that, as there are lots of
  paths where kobjects and device pointers are not modified at all, so
  marking them as "const" allows the compiler to enforce this.

  So, a nice side affect of the Rust development effort has been already
  to clean up the driver core code to be more obvious about object
  rules.

  All of this has been bike-shedded in quite a lot of detail on lkml
  with different names and implementations resulting in the tiny version
  we have in here, much better than my original proposal. Lots of
  subsystem maintainers have acked the changes as well.

  Other than this change, included in here are smaller stuff like:

   - kernfs fixes and updates to handle lock contention better

   - vmlinux.lds.h fixes and updates

   - sysfs and debugfs documentation updates

   - device property updates

  All of these have been in the linux-next tree for quite a while with
  no problems"

  firmware_loader: fix up to_fw_sysfs() to preserve const
  usb.h: take advantage of container_of_const()

  container_of: add container_of_const() that preserves const-ness of the pointer
  driver core: fix up missed drivers/s390/char/hmcdrv_dev.c class.devnode() conversion.
  driver core: fix up missed scsi/cxlflash class.devnode() conversion.

  we have in here, much better than my original proposal. Lots of
  subsystem maintainers have acked the changes as well.

  Other than this change, included in here are smaller stuff like:

   - kernfs fixes and updates to handle lock contention better

   - vmlinux.lds.h fixes and updates

   - sysfs and debugfs documentation updates

   - device property updates

  All of these have been in the linux-next tree for quite a while with
  no problems"

Pull USB and Thunderbolt driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the large set of USB and Thunderbolt driver changes for
  6.2-rc1. Overall, thanks to the removal of a driver, more lines were
  removed than added, a nice change. Highlights include:

   - removal of the sisusbvga driver that was not used by anyone anymore

   - minor thunderbolt driver changes and tweaks

   - chipidea driver updates

   - usual set of typec driver features and hardware support added

   - musb minor driver fixes

   - fotg210 driver fixes, bringing that hardware back from the "dead"

   - minor dwc3 driver updates

   - addition, and then removal, of a list.h helper function for many
     USB and other subsystem drivers, that ended up breaking the build.
     That will come back for 6.3-rc1, it missed this merge window.

   - usual xhci updates and enhancements

   - usb-serial driver updates and support for new devices

   - other minor USB driver updates

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems"

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "There are few major updates in the SoC specific drivers, mainly the
  usual reworks and support for variants of the existing SoC. While this
  remains Arm centric for the most part, the branch now also contains
  updates to risc-v and loongarch specific code in drivers/soc/.

  Notable changes include:

   - Support for the newly added Qualcomm Snapdragon variants (MSM8956,
     MSM8976, SM6115, SM4250, SM8150, SA8155 and SM8550) in the soc ID,
     rpmh, rpm, spm and powerdomain drivers.

   - Documentation for the somewhat controversial qcom,board-id
     properties that are required for booting a number of machines

   - A new SoC identification driver for the loongson-2 (loongarch)
     platform

   - memory controller updates for stm32, tegra, and renesas.

   - a new DT binding to better describe LPDDR2/3/4/5 chips in the
     memory controller subsystem

   - Updates for Tegra specific drivers across multiple subsystems,
     improving support for newer SoCs and better identification

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Add NMI-safe SRCU reader API. It uses atomic_inc() instead of
   this_cpu_inc() on strong load-store architectures.

 - Introduce new console_list_lock to synchronize a manipulation of the
   list of registered consoles and their flags.

   This is a first step in removing the big-kernel-lock-like behavior of
   console_lock(). This semaphore still serializes console-&gt;write()
   calbacks against:

      - each other. It primary prevents potential races between early
        and proper console drivers using the same device.

      - suspend()/resume() callbacks and init() operations in some
        drivers.

      - various other operations in the tty/vt and framebufer
        susbsystems. It is likely that console_lock() serializes even
        operations that are not directly conflicting with the
        console-&gt;write() callbacks here. This is the most complicated
        big-kernel-lock aspect of the console_lock() that will be hard
        to untangle.

 - Introduce new console_srcu lock that is used to safely iterate and
   access the registered console drivers under SRCU read lock.

   This is a prerequisite for introducing atomic console drivers and
   console kthreads. It will reduce the complexity of serialization
   against normal consoles and console_lock(). Also it should remove the
   risk of deadlock during critical situations, like Oops or panic, when
   only atomic consoles are registered.

 - Check whether the console is registered instead of enabled on many
   locations. It was a historical leftover.

 - Cleanly force a preferred console in xenfb code instead of a dirty
   hack.

 - A lot of code and comment clean ups and improvements.
