2026-04-02comedi: add comedi_check_request_region()Ian Abbott
There is an existing comedi_request_region(dev, start, len) function used by COMEDI drivers for legacy devices to request an I/O port region starting at a specified base address (which must be non-zero) and with a specified length. It uses request_region(). On success, it sets dev->iobase and dev->iolen and returns 0. There is a alternative function __comedi_request_region(dev, start, len) which does the same thing without setting dev->iobase and dev->iolen. Most hardware devices have restrictions on the allowed I/O port base address and alignment, so add new functions comedi_check_request_region(dev, start, len, minstart, maxend, minalign) and __comedi_check_request_region(dev, start, len, minstart, maxend, minalign) to perform these additional checks. Turn the original functions into static inline wrapper functions that call the new functions.

2026-04-02for_each_alias(): helper macro for iterating through dentries of given inodeAl Viro
Most of the places using d_alias are loops iterating through all aliases for given inode; introduce a helper macro (for_each_alias(dentry, inode)) and convert open-coded instances of such loop to it. They are easier to read that way and it reduces the noise on the next steps. You _must_ hold inode->i_lock over that thing. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2026-04-02usb: core: use dedicated spinlock for offload stateGuan-Yu Lin
Replace the coarse USB device lock with a dedicated offload_lock spinlock to reduce contention during offload operations. Use offload_pm_locked to synchronize with PM transitions and replace the legacy offload_at_suspend flag. Optimize usb_offload_get/put by switching from auto-resume/suspend to pm_runtime_get_if_active(). This ensures offload state is only modified when the device is already active, avoiding unnecessary power transitions.

This patch introduces support for operating the Cadence USBSSP (cdnsp) controller in a peripheral-only mode, bypassing the Dual-Role Device (DRD) logic. The change in BAR indexing (from BAR 2 to BAR 1) is a direct consequence of switching from 64-bit to 32-bit addressing in the Peripheral-only configuration.

2026-04-02dma-mapping: introduce DMA_ATTR_CC_SHARED for shared memoryJiri Pirko
Current CC designs don't place a vIOMMU in front of untrusted devices. Instead, the DMA API forces all untrusted device DMA through swiotlb bounce buffers (is_swiotlb_force_bounce()) which copies data into shared memory on behalf of the device. When a caller has already arranged for the memory to be shared via set_memory_decrypted(), the DMA API needs to know so it can map directly using the unencrypted physical address rather than bounce buffering. Following the pattern of DMA_ATTR_MMIO, add DMA_ATTR_CC_SHARED for this purpose. Like the MMIO case, only the caller knows what kind of memory it has and must inform the DMA API for it to work correctly.

These peripherals can monitor the activity of the cores. Because of that, they can be used only if some features in the debug configuration are enabled. Else, errors or firewall exceptions can be observed. Similarly to the ETZPC(on stm32mp1x platforms) or the RIFSC(on stm32mp2x platforms), debug-related peripherals access can be assessed at bus level to prevent these issues from happening. The debug configuration can only be accessed by the secure world. That means that a service must be implemented in the secure world for the kernel to check the firewall configuration. On OpenSTLinux, it is done through a Debug access PTA in OP-TEE [1]. To represent the debug peripherals present on a dedicated debug bus, create a debug bus node in the device tree and the associated driver that will interact with this PTA.

2026-04-01workqueue: add WQ_AFFN_CACHE_SHARD affinity scopeBreno Leitao
On systems where many CPUs share one LLC, unbound workqueues using WQ_AFFN_CACHE collapse to a single worker pool, causing heavy spinlock contention on pool->lock. For example, Chuck Lever measured 39% of cycles lost to native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath on a 12-core shared-L3 NFS-over-RDMA system. The existing affinity hierarchy (cpu, smt, cache, numa, system) offers no intermediate option between per-LLC and per-SMT-core granularity. Add WQ_AFFN_CACHE_SHARD, which subdivides each LLC into groups of at most wq_cache_shard_size cores (default 8, tunable via boot parameter). Shards are always split on core (SMT group) boundaries so that Hyper-Threading siblings are never placed in different pods. Cores are distributed across shards as evenly as possible -- for example, 36 cores in a single LLC with max shard size 8 produces 5 shards of 8+7+7+7+7 cores. The implementation follows the same comparator pattern as other affinity scopes: precompute_cache_shard_ids() pre-fills the cpu_shard_id[] array from the already-initialized WQ_AFFN_CACHE and WQ_AFFN_SMT topology, and cpus_share_cache_shard() is passed to init_pod_type(). Benchmark on NVIDIA Grace (72 CPUs, single LLC, 50k items/thread), show cache_shard delivers ~5x the throughput and ~6.5x lower p50 latency compared to cache scope on this 72-core single-LLC system.

2026-04-01powercap: intel_rapl: Consolidate PL4 and PMU support flags into rapl_defaultsKuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan
Currently, PL4 and MSR-based RAPL PMU support are detected using separate CPU ID tables (pl4_support_ids and pmu_support_ids) in the MSR driver probe path. This creates a maintenance burden since adding a new CPU requires updates in two places: the rapl_ids table and one or both of these capability tables. Consolidate PL4 and PMU capability information directly into struct rapl_defaults by adding msr_pl4_support and msr_pmu_support flags. This allows per-CPU capability to be expressed in a single place alongside other per-CPU defaults, eliminating the duplicate CPU ID tables entirely. No functional changes are intended.

RAPL primitive information varies across different RAPL interfaces (MSR, TPMI, MMIO). Keeping them in the common code adds no benefit, but requires interface-specific handling logic and makes the common layer unnecessarily complex. Move the primitive info infrastructure to the shared header to allow interface drivers to configure RAPL primitives. Specific changes: 1. Move struct rapl_primitive_info, enum unit_type, and PRIMITIVE_INFO_INIT macro to intel_rapl.h. 2. Change the @rpi field in struct rapl_if_priv from void * to struct rapl_primitive_info * to improve type safety and eliminate unnecessary casts. No functional changes.

2026-04-01cpufreq: Allocate QoS freq_req objects with policyViresh Kumar
A recent change exposed a bug in the error path: if freq_qos_add_request(boost_freq_req) fails, min_freq_req may remain a valid pointer even though it was never successfully added. During policy teardown, this leads to an unconditional call to freq_qos_remove_request(), triggering a WARN. The current design allocates all three freq_req objects together, making the lifetime rules unclear and error handling fragile. Simplify this by allocating the QoS freq_req objects at policy allocation time. The policy itself is dynamically allocated, and two of the three requests are always needed anyway. This ensures consistent lifetime management and eliminates the inconsistent state in failure paths.

2026-03-31module: define ksym_flags enumeration to represent kernel symbol flagsSiddharth Nayyar
The core architectural issue with kernel symbol flags is our reliance on splitting the main symbol table, ksymtab. To handle a single boolean property, such as GPL-only, all exported symbols are split across two separate tables: __ksymtab and __ksymtab_gpl. This design forces the module loader to perform a separate search on each of these tables for every symbol it needs, for vmlinux and for all previously loaded modules. This approach is fundamentally not scalable. If we were to introduce a second flag, we would need four distinct symbol tables. For n boolean flags, this model requires an exponential growth to 2^n tables, dramatically increasing complexity. Another consequence of this fragmentation is degraded performance. For example, a binary search on the symbol table of vmlinux, that would take only 14 comparison steps (assuming ~2^14 or 16K symbols) in a unified table, can require up to 26 steps when spread across two tables (assuming both tables have ~2^13 symbols). This performance penalty worsens as more flags are added. To address this, symbol flags is an enumeration used to represent flags as a bitset, for example a flag to tell if a symbol is GPL only. The said bitset is introduced in subsequent patches and will contain values of kernel symbol flags. These bitset will then be used to infer flag values rather than fragmenting ksymtab for separating symbols with different flag values, thereby eliminating the need to fragment the ksymtab.

2026-03-31bpf: Fix grace period wait for tracepoint bpf_linkKumar Kartikeya Dwivedi
Recently, tracepoints were switched from using disabled preemption (which acts as RCU read section) to SRCU-fast when they are not faultable. This means that to do a proper grace period wait for programs running in such tracepoints, we must use SRCU's grace period wait. This is only for non-faultable tracepoints, faultable ones continue using RCU Tasks Trace. However, bpf_link_free() currently does call_rcu() for all cases when the link is non-sleepable (hence, for tracepoints, non-faultable). Fix this by doing a call_srcu() grace period wait. As far RCU Tasks Trace gp -> RCU gp chaining is concerned, it is deemed unnecessary for tracepoint programs. The link and program are either accessed under RCU Tasks Trace protection, or SRCU-fast protection now. The earlier logic of chaining both RCU Tasks Trace and RCU gp waits was to generalize the logic, even if it conceded an extra RCU gp wait, however that is unnecessary for tracepoints even before this change. In practice no cost was paid since rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp() was always true. Hence we need not chaining any RCU gp after the SRCU gp. For instance, in the non-faultable raw tracepoint, the RCU read section of the program in __bpf_trace_run() is enclosed in the SRCU gp, likewise for faultable raw tracepoint, the program is under the RCU Tasks Trace protection. Hence, the outermost scope can be waited upon to ensure correctness. Also, sleepable programs cannot be attached to non-faultable tracepoints, so whenever program or link is sleepable, only RCU Tasks Trace protection is being used for the link and prog.

2026-03-31rv: Add support for per-object monitors in DA/HAGabriele Monaco
RV deterministic and hybrid automata currently only support global, per-cpu and per-task monitors. It isn't possible to write a model that would follow some different type of object, like a deadline entity or a lock. Define the generic per-object monitor implementation which shares part of the implementation with the per-task monitors. The user needs to provide an id for the object (e.g. pid for tasks) and define the data type for the monitor_target (e.g. struct task_struct * for tasks). Both are supplied to the event handlers, as the id may not be easily available in the target. The monitor storage (e.g. the rv monitor, pointer to the target, etc.) is stored in a hash table indexed by id. Monitor storage objects are automatically allocated unless specified otherwise (e.g. if the creation context is unsafe for allocation).

2026-03-31rv: Add Hybrid Automata monitor typeGabriele Monaco
Deterministic automata define which events are allowed in every state, but cannot define more sophisticated constraint taking into account the system's environment (e.g. time or other states not producing events). Add the Hybrid Automata monitor type as an extension of Deterministic automata where each state transition is validating a constraint on a finite number of environment variables. Hybrid automata can be used to implement timed automata, where the environment variables are clocks. Also implement the necessary functionality to handle clock constraints (ns or jiffy granularity) on state and events.

2026-03-31sed-opal: Add STACK_RESET commandMilan Broz
The TCG Opal device could enter a state where no new session can be created, blocking even Discovery or PSID reset. While a power cycle or waiting for the timeout should work, there is another possibility for recovery: using the Stack Reset command. The Stack Reset command is defined in the TCG Storage Architecture Core Specification and is mandatory for all Opal devices (see Section 3.3.6 of the Opal SSC specification). This patch implements the Stack Reset command. Sending it should clear all active sessions immediately, allowing subsequent commands to run successfully. While it is a TCG transport layer command, the Linux kernel implements only Opal ioctls, so it makes sense to use the IOC_OPAL ioctl interface. The Stack Reset takes no arguments; the response can be success or pending. If the command reports a pending state, userspace can try to repeat it; in this case, the code returns -EBUSY.

2026-03-31dma: contiguous: Make dev_get_cma_area() a proper functionMaxime Ripard
As we try to enable dma-buf heaps, and the CMA one in particular, to compile as modules, we need to export dev_get_cma_area(). It's currently implemented as an inline function that returns either the content of device->cma_area or dma_contiguous_default_area. Thus, it means we need to export dma_contiguous_default_area, which isn't really something we want any module to have access to. Instead, let's make dev_get_cma_area() a proper function we will be able to export so we can avoid exporting dma_contiguous_default_area.

2026-03-31dma: contiguous: Turn heap registration logic aroundMaxime Ripard
The CMA heap instantiation was initially developed by having the contiguous DMA code call into the CMA heap to create a new instance every time a reserved memory area is probed. Turning the CMA heap into a module would create a dependency of the kernel on a module, which doesn't work. Let's turn the logic around and do the opposite: store all the reserved memory CMA regions into the contiguous DMA code, and provide an iterator for the heap to use when it probes.
