Pull IPMI fixes from Corey Minyard: "Fix a number of issues that came up recently The first two fixes are workarounds for buggy IPMI hardware. The hardware says it has data for the IPMI driver to read constantly, so the driver reads the data constantly, causing any new requests to be blocked. The first fix was to check for invalid data right when the data was read from the device and stop the operation there (there was a later check for invalid data, but it could not stop the operation at that point). It turned out the device was providing good data, so that didn't fix the issue, but it's still a good check. The second fix stops fetching this data after a few fetches and allows other operations to occur. The driver won't work very well, but at least it won't wedge. This seems to fix the issue. The third issue is a problem I spotted while working on the previous issue where if a certain memory allocation failed the driver would stop working. The fourth issue is a problem was a missing set to NULL on a PTR_ERR() return, introduced in the previous series for 7.1" * tag 'for-linus-7.1-2' of https://github.com/cminyard/linux-ipmi: ipmi:ssif: NULL thread on error ipmi:si: Return state to normal if message allocation fails ipmi: Add limits to event and receive message requests ipmi: Check event message buffer response for bad data

8 daysipmi:si: Return state to normal if message allocation failsCorey Minyard

8 daysipmi: Add limits to event and receive message requestsCorey Minyard
The driver would just fetch events and receive messages until the BMC said it was done. To avoid issues with BMCs that never say they are done, add a limit of 10 fetches at a time. In addition, an si interface has an attn state it can return from the hardware which is supposed to cause a flag fetch to see if the driver needs to fetch events or message or a few other things. If the attn bit gets stuck, it's a similar problem. So allow messages in between flag fetches so the driver itself doesn't get stuck. This is a more general fix than the previous fix for the specific bad BMC, but should fix the more general issue of a BMC that won't stop saying it has data. This has been there from the beginning of the driver. It's not a bug per-se, but it is accounting for bugs in BMCs.

2026-04-21tpm: tpm_tis: stop transmit if retries are exhaustedJacqueline Wong
tpm_tis_send_main() will attempt to retry sending data TPM_RETRY times. Currently, if those retries are exhausted, the driver will attempt to call execute. The TPM will be in the wrong state, leading to the operation simply timing out. Instead, if there is still an error after retries are exhausted, return that error immediately.

2026-04-21tpm: Use kfree_sensitive() to free auth session in tpm_dev_release()Gunnar Kudrjavets
tpm_dev_release() uses plain kfree() to free chip->auth, which contains sensitive cryptographic material including HMAC session keys, nonces, and passphrase data (struct tpm2_auth). Every other code path that frees this structure uses kfree_sensitive() to zero the memory before releasing it: both tpm2_end_auth_session() and tpm_buf_check_hmac_response() do so. The tpm_dev_release() path is the only one that does not, leaving key material in freed slab memory until it is eventually overwritten. Use kfree_sensitive() for consistency with the rest of the driver and to ensure session keys are scrubbed during device teardown.

2026-04-21tpm2-sessions: Fix missing tpm_buf_destroy() in tpm2_read_public()Gunnar Kudrjavets
tpm2_read_public() calls tpm_buf_init() but fails to call tpm_buf_destroy() on two exit paths, leaking a page allocation: 1. When name_size() returns an error (unrecognized hash algorithm), the function returns directly without destroying the buffer. 2. On the success path, the buffer is never destroyed before returning. All other error paths in the function correctly call tpm_buf_destroy() before returning. Fix both by adding the missing tpm_buf_destroy() calls.

2026-04-21tpm: Fix auth session leak in tpm2_get_random() error pathGunnar Kudrjavets
When tpm_buf_fill_hmac_session() fails inside the do-while loop in tpm2_get_random(), the function returns directly after destroying the buffer, without ending the auth session via tpm2_end_auth_session(). This leaks the TPM auth session resource. All other error paths within the loop correctly reach the 'out' label which calls both tpm_buf_destroy() and tpm2_end_auth_session(). Fix this by replacing the early return with a goto to the existing 'out' label, which already handles both cleanup operations. The redundant tpm_buf_destroy() call is removed since 'out' takes care of it.

2026-04-21tpm_crb: Convert ACPI driver to a platform oneRafael J. Wysocki
In all cases in which a struct acpi_driver is used for binding a driver to an ACPI device object, a corresponding platform device is created by the ACPI core and that device is regarded as a proper representation of underlying hardware. Accordingly, a struct platform_driver should be used by driver code to bind to that device. There are multiple reasons why drivers should not bind directly to ACPI device objects [1]. Overall, it is better to bind drivers to platform devices than to their ACPI companions, so convert the tpm_crb ACPI driver to a platform one. While this is not expected to alter functionality, it changes sysfs layout and so it will be visible to user space.

2026-04-05mm: reintroduce vma_desc_test() as a singular flag testLorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)
Similar to vma_flags_test(), we have previously renamed vma_desc_test() to vma_desc_test_any(). Now that is in place, we can reintroduce vma_desc_test() to explicitly check for a single VMA flag. As with vma_flags_test(), this is useful as often flag tests are against a single flag, and vma_desc_test_any(flags, VMA_READ_BIT) reads oddly and potentially causes confusion. As with vma_flags_test() a combination of sparse and vma_flags_t being a struct means that users cannot misuse this function without it getting flagged. Also update the VMA tests to reflect this change.

2026-04-05mm: rename VMA flag helpers to be more readableLorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)
Patch series "mm: vma flag tweaks". The ongoing work around introducing non-system word VMA flags has introduced a number of helper functions and macros to make life easier when working with these flags and to make conversions from the legacy use of VM_xxx flags more straightforward. This series improves these to reduce confusion as to what they do and to improve consistency and readability. Firstly the series renames vma_flags_test() to vma_flags_test_any() to make it abundantly clear that this function tests whether any of the flags are set (as opposed to vma_flags_test_all()). It then renames vma_desc_test_flags() to vma_desc_test_any() for the same reason. Note that we drop the 'flags' suffix here, as vma_desc_test_any_flags() would be cumbersome and 'test' implies a flag test. Similarly, we rename vma_test_all_flags() to vma_test_all() for consistency. Next, we have a couple of instances (erofs, zonefs) where we are now testing for vma_desc_test_any(desc, VMA_SHARED_BIT) && vma_desc_test_any(desc, VMA_MAYWRITE_BIT). This is silly, so this series introduces vma_desc_test_all() so these callers can instead invoke vma_desc_test_all(desc, VMA_SHARED_BIT, VMA_MAYWRITE_BIT). We then observe that quite a few instances of vma_flags_test_any() and vma_desc_test_any() are in fact only testing against a single flag. Using the _any() variant here is just confusing - 'any' of single item reads strangely and is liable to cause confusion. So in these instances the series reintroduces vma_flags_test() and vma_desc_test() as helpers which test against a single flag. The fact that vma_flags_t is a struct and that vma_flag_t utilises sparse to avoid confusion with vm_flags_t makes it impossible for a user to misuse these helpers without it getting flagged somewhere. The series also updates __mk_vma_flags() and functions invoked by it to explicitly mark them always inline to match expectation and to be consistent with other VMA flag helpers. It also renames vma_flag_set() to vma_flags_set_flag() (a function only used by __mk_vma_flags()) to be consistent with other VMA flag helpers. Finally it updates the VMA tests for each of these changes, and introduces explicit tests for vma_flags_test() and vma_desc_test() to assert that they behave as expected. This patch (of 6): On reflection, it's confusing to have vma_flags_test() and vma_desc_test_flags() test whether any comma-separated VMA flag bit is set, while also having vma_flags_test_all() and vma_test_all_flags() separately test whether all flags are set. Firstly, rename vma_flags_test() to vma_flags_test_any() to eliminate this confusion. Secondly, since the VMA descriptor flag functions are becoming rather cumbersome, prefer vma_desc_test*() to vma_desc_test_flags*(), and also rename vma_desc_test_flags() to vma_desc_test_any(). Finally, rename vma_test_all_flags() to vma_test_all() to keep the VMA-specific helper consistent with the VMA descriptor naming convention and to help avoid confusion vs. vma_flags_test_all(). While we're here, also update whitespace to be consistent in helper functions.

In all cases in which a struct acpi_driver is used for binding a driver to an ACPI device object, a corresponding platform device is created by the ACPI core and that device is regarded as a proper representation of underlying hardware. Accordingly, a struct platform_driver should be used by driver code to bind to that device. There are multiple reasons why drivers should not bind directly to ACPI device objects [1]. Overall, it is better to bind drivers to platform devices than to their ACPI companions, so convert the sonypi ACPI driver to a platform one.

2026-03-05ipmi: Replace use of system_wq with system_percpu_wqMarco Crivellari
This patch continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which has begun with the changes introducing new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag: commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq") commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag") The point of the refactoring is to eventually alter the default behavior of workqueues to become unbound by default so that their workload placement is optimized by the scheduler. Before that to happen after a careful review and conversion of each individual case, workqueue users must be converted to the better named new workqueues with no intended behaviour changes: system_wq -> system_percpu_wq system_unbound_wq -> system_dfl_wq This way the old obsolete workqueues (system_wq, system_unbound_wq) can be removed in the future.

2026-02-23Remove WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM kernel config optionLinus Torvalds
This config option goes way back - it used to be an internal debug option to random.c (at that point called DEBUG_RANDOM_BOOT), then was renamed and exposed as a config option as CONFIG_WARN_UNSEEDED_RANDOM, and then further renamed to the current CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM. It was all done with the best of intentions: the more limited rate-limited reports were reporting some cases, but if you wanted to see all the gory details, you'd enable this "ALL" option. However, it turns out - perhaps not surprisingly - that when people don't care about and fix the first rate-limited cases, they most certainly don't care about any others either, and so warning about all of them isn't actually helping anything. And the non-ratelimited reporting causes problems, where well-meaning people enable debug options, but the excessive flood of messages that nobody cares about will hide actual real information when things go wrong. I just got a kernel bug report (which had nothing to do with randomness) where two thirds of the the truncated dmesg was just variations of random: get_random_u32 called from __get_random_u32_below+0x10/0x70 with crng_init=0 and in the process early boot messages had been lost (in addition to making the messages that _hadn't_ been lost harder to read). The proper way to find these things for the hypothetical developer that cares - if such a person exists - is almost certainly with boot time tracing. That gives you the option to get call graphs etc too, which is likely a requirement for fixing any problems anyway. See Documentation/trace/boottime-trace.rst for that option. And if we for some reason do want to re-introduce actual printing of these things, it will need to have some uniqueness filtering rather than this "just print it all" model.

2026-02-21Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL argumentsLinus Torvalds
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2026-02-12mm: update all remaining mmap_prepare users to use vma_flags_tLorenzo Stoakes
We will be shortly removing the vm_flags_t field from vm_area_desc so we need to update all mmap_prepare users to only use the dessc->vma_flags field. This patch achieves that and makes all ancillary changes required to make this possible. This lays the groundwork for future work to eliminate the use of vm_flags_t in vm_area_desc altogether and more broadly throughout the kernel. While we're here, we take the opportunity to replace VM_REMAP_FLAGS with VMA_REMAP_FLAGS, the vma_flags_t equivalent. No functional changes intended.
