<title>work around gcc bugs with 'asm goto' with outputs</title>

<id>4356e9f841f7fbb945521cef3577ba394c65f3fc</id>
<content type='text'>
We've had issues with gcc and 'asm goto' before, and we created a
'asm_volatile_goto()' macro for that in the past: see commits
3f0116c3238a ("compiler/gcc4: Add quirk for 'asm goto' miscompilation
bug") and a9f180345f53 ("compiler/gcc4: Make quirk for
asm_volatile_goto() unconditional").

Then, much later, we ended up removing the workaround in commit
43c249ea0b1e ("compiler-gcc.h: remove ancient workaround for gcc PR
58670") because we no longer supported building the kernel with the
affected gcc versions, but we left the macro uses around.

Now, Sean Christopherson reports a new version of a very similar
problem, which is fixed by re-applying that ancient workaround.  But the
problem in question is limited to only the 'asm goto with outputs'
cases, so instead of re-introducing the old workaround as-is, let's
rename and limit the workaround to just that much less common case.

It looks like there are at least two separate issues that all hit in
this area:

 (a) some versions of gcc don't mark the asm goto as 'volatile' when it
     has outputs:

        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98619
        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110420

     which is easy to work around by just adding the 'volatile' by hand.

 (b) Internal compiler errors:

        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110422

     which are worked around by adding the extra empty 'asm' as a
     barrier, as in the original workaround.

but the problem Sean sees may be a third thing since it involves bad
code generation (not an ICE) even with the manually added 'volatile'.

but the same old workaround works for this case, even if this feels a
bit like voodoo programming and may only be hiding the issue.

  with spurious errors from the EFI memory attribute protocol. This will
  be backported to v6.6, and is intended to ensure that we will not
  paint ourselves into a corner when we tighten this further in order to
  comply with MS requirements on signed EFI code.

  Note that this protocol does not currently exist in x86 production
  systems in the field, only in Microsoft's fork of OVMF, but it will be
  mandatory for Windows logo certification for x86 PCs in the future.

   - Tighten ELF relocation checks on the RISC-V EFI stub

   - Give up if the new EFI memory attributes protocol fails spuriously
     on x86

   - Take care not to place the kernel in the lowest 16 MB of DRAM on
     x86

   - Omit special purpose EFI memory from memblock

<title>libceph: just wait for more data to be available on the socket</title>

<content type='text'>
A short read may occur while reading the message footer from the
socket.  Later, when the socket is ready for another read, the
messenger invokes all read_partial_*() handlers, including
read_partial_sparse_msg_data().  The expectation is that
read_partial_sparse_msg_data() would bail, allowing the messenger to
invoke read_partial() for the footer and pick up where it left off.

However read_partial_sparse_msg_data() violates that and ends up
calling into the state machine in the OSD client.  The sparse-read
state machine assumes that it's a new op and interprets some piece of
the footer as the sparse-read header and returns bogus extents/data
length, etc.

To determine whether read_partial_sparse_msg_data() should bail, let's
reuse cursor-&gt;total_resid.  Because once it reaches to zero that means
all the extents and data have been successfully received in last read,
else it could break out when partially reading any of the extents and
data.  And then osd_sparse_read() could continue where it left off.

<title>blk-wbt: Fix detection of dirty-throttled tasks</title>

<content type='text'>
The detection of dirty-throttled tasks in blk-wbt has been subtly broken
since its beginning in 2016. Namely if we are doing cgroup writeback and
the throttled task is not in the root cgroup, balance_dirty_pages() will
set dirty_sleep for the non-root bdi_writeback structure. However
blk-wbt checks dirty_sleep only in the root cgroup bdi_writeback
structure. Thus detection of recently throttled tasks is not working in
this case (we noticed this when we switched to cgroup v2 and suddently
writeback was slow).

Since blk-wbt has no easy way to get to proper bdi_writeback and
furthermore its intention has always been to work on the whole device
rather than on individual cgroups, just move the dirty_sleep timestamp
from bdi_writeback to backing_dev_info. That fixes the checking for
recently throttled task and saves memory for everybody as a bonus.

The hrtimers migration on CPU-down hotplug process has been moved
earlier, before the CPU actually goes to die. This leaves a small window
of opportunity to queue an hrtimer in a blind spot, leaving it ignored.

For example a practical case has been reported with RCU waking up a
SCHED_FIFO task right before the CPUHP_AP_IDLE_DEAD stage, queuing that
way a sched/rt timer to the local offline CPU.

Make sure such situations never go unnoticed and warn when that happens.

Fixes: 5c0930ccaad5 ("hrtimers: Push pending hrtimers away from outgoing CPU earlier")

Pull dmaengine fixes from Vinod Koul:
 "Core:

   - fix return value of is_slave_direction() for D2D dma

  Driver fixes for:

   - Documentaion fixes to resolve warnings for at_hdmac driver

   - bunch of fsl driver fixes for memory leaks, and useless kfree

   - TI edma and k3 fixes for packet error and null pointer checks"
