Pull driver core and debugfs updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs changes for 5.3-rc1
It's a lot of different patches, all across the tree due to some api
changes and lots of debugfs cleanups.
Other than the debugfs cleanups, in this set of changes we have:
- bus iteration function cleanups
- scripts/get_abi.pl tool to display and parse Documentation/ABI
entries in a simple way
- cleanups to Documenatation/ABI/ entries to make them parse easier
due to typos and other minor things
- default_attrs use for some ktype users
- driver model documentation file conversions to .rst
- compressed firmware file loading
- deferred probe fixes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with a bunch of
merge issues that Stephen has been patient with me for"

Commit 4c06c4e6cf63 ("driver core: Fix possible supplier PM-usage
counter imbalance") introduced a regression that causes suppliers
to be suspended prematurely for device links added during consumer
driver probe if the initial PM-runtime status of the consumer is
"suspended" and the consumer is resumed after adding the link and
before pm_runtime_put_suppliers() is called. In that case,
pm_runtime_put_suppliers() will drop the rpm_active refcount for
the link by one and (since rpm_active is equal to two after the
preceding consumer resume) the supplier's PM-runtime usage counter
will be decremented, which may cause the supplier to suspend even
though the consumer's PM-runtime status is "active".
For this reason, partially revert commit 4c06c4e6cf63 as the problem
it tried to fix needs to be addressed somewhat differently, and
change pm_runtime_get_suppliers() and pm_runtime_put_suppliers() so
that the latter only drops rpm_active references acquired by the
former. [This requires adding a new field to struct device_link,
but I coulnd't find a cleaner way to address the issue that would
work in all cases.]
This causes pm_runtime_put_suppliers() to effectively ignore device
links added during consumer probe, so device_link_add() doesn't need
to worry about ensuring that suppliers will remain active after
pm_runtime_put_suppliers() for links created with DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE
set and it only needs to bump up rpm_active by one for those links,
so pm_runtime_active_link() is not necessary any more.

If a stateless device link to a certain supplier with
DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME set in the flags is added and then removed by the
consumer driver's probe callback, the supplier's PM-runtime usage
counter will be nonzero after that which effectively causes the
supplier to remain "always on" going forward.
Namely, device_link_add() called to add the link invokes
device_link_rpm_prepare() which notices that the consumer driver is
probing, so it increments the supplier's PM-runtime usage counter
with the assumption that the link will stay around until
pm_runtime_put_suppliers() is called by driver_probe_device(),
but if the link goes away before that point, the supplier's
PM-runtime usage counter will remain nonzero.
To prevent that from happening, first rework pm_runtime_get_suppliers()
and pm_runtime_put_suppliers() to use the rpm_active refounts of device
links and make the latter only drop rpm_active and the supplier's
PM-runtime usage counter for each link by one, unless rpm_active is
one already for it. Next, modify device_link_add() to bump up the
new link's rpm_active refcount and the suppliers PM-runtime usage
counter by two, to prevent pm_runtime_put_suppliers(), if it is
called subsequently, from suspending the supplier prematurely (in
case its PM-runtime usage counter goes down to 0 in there).
Due to the way rpm_put_suppliers() works, this change does not
affect runtime suspend of the consumer ends of new device links (or,
generally, device links for which DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME has just been
set).

Add a new device link flag, DL_FLAG_AUTOPROBE_CONSUMER, to request the
driver core to probe for a consumer driver automatically after binding
a driver to the supplier device on a persistent managed device link.
As unbinding the supplier driver on a managed device link causes the
consumer driver to be detached from its device automatically, this
flag provides a complementary mechanism which is needed to address
some "composite device" use cases.

Even though stateful device links are managed by the driver core in
principle, their creators are allowed and sometimes even expected
to drop references to them via device_link_del() or
device_link_remove(), but that doesn't really play well with the
"persistent" link concept.
If "persistent" managed device links are created from driver
probe callbacks, device_link_add() called to do that will take a
new reference on the link each time the callback runs and those
references will never be dropped, which kind of isn't nice.
This issues arises because of the link reference counting carried
out by device_link_add() for existing links, but that is only done to
avoid deleting device links that may still be necessary, which
shouldn't be a concern for managed (stateful) links. These device
links are managed by the driver core and whoever creates one of them
will need it at least as long as until the consumer driver is detached
from its device and deleting it may be left to the driver core just
fine.
For this reason, rework device_link_add() to apply the reference
counting to stateless links only and make device_link_del() and
device_link_remove() drop references to stateless links only too.
After this change, if called to add a stateful device link for
a consumer-supplier pair for which a stateful device link is
present already, device_link_add() will return the existing link
without incrementing its reference counter. Accordingly,
device_link_del() and device_link_remove() will WARN() and do
nothing when called to drop a reference to a stateful link. Thus,
effectively, all stateful device links will be owned by the driver
core.
In addition, clean up the handling of the link management flags,
DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_CONSUMER and DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_SUPPLIER, so that
(a) they are never set at the same time and (b) if device_link_add()
is called for a consumer-supplier pair with an existing stateful link
between them, the flags of that link will be combined with the flags
passed to device_link_add() to ensure that the life time of the link
is sufficient for all of the callers of device_link_add() for the
same consumer-supplier pair.
Update the device_link_add() kerneldoc comment to reflect the
above changes.

Calling rpm_put_suppliers() from pm_runtime_drop_link() is excessive
as it affects all suppliers of the consumer device and not just the
one pointed to by the device link being dropped. Worst case it may
cause the consumer device to stop working unexpectedly. Moreover, in
principle it is racy with respect to runtime PM of the consumer
device.
To avoid these problems drop runtime PM references on the particular
supplier pointed to by the link in question only and do that after
the link has been dropped from the consumer device's list of links to
suppliers, which is in device_link_free().

Currently, it is not valid to add a device link from a consumer
driver ->probe callback to a supplier that is still probing too, but
generally this is a valid use case. For example, if the consumer has
just acquired a resource that can only be available if the supplier
is functional, adding a device link to that supplier right away
should be safe (and even desirable arguably), but device_link_add()
doesn't handle that case correctly and the initial state of the link
created by it is wrong then.
To address this problem, change the initial state of device links
added between a probing supplier and a probing consumer to
DL_STATE_CONSUMER_PROBE and update device_links_driver_bound() to
skip such links on the supplier side.
With this change, if the supplier probe completes first,
device_links_driver_bound() called for it will skip the link state
update and when it is called for the consumer, the link state will
be updated to "active". In turn, if the consumer probe completes
first, device_links_driver_bound() called for it will change the
state of the link to "active" and when it is called for the
supplier, the link status update will be skipped.
However, in principle the supplier or consumer probe may still fail
after the link has been added, so modify device_links_no_driver() to
change device links in the "active" or "consumer probe" state to
"dormant" on the supplier side and update __device_links_no_driver()
to change the link state to "available" only if it is "consumer
probe" or "active".
Then, if the supplier probe fails first, the leftover link to the
probing consumer will become "dormant" and device_links_no_driver()
called for the consumer (when its probe fails) will clean it up.
In turn, if the consumer probe fails first, it will either drop the
link, or change its state to "available" and, in the latter case,
when device_links_no_driver() is called for the supplier, it will
update the link state to "dormant". [If the supplier probe fails,
but the consumer probe succeeds, which should not happen as long as
the consumer driver is correct, the link still will be around, but
it will be "dormant" until the supplier is probed again.]

After commit ead18c23c263 ("driver core: Introduce device links
reference counting"), if there is a link between the given supplier
and the given consumer already, device_link_add() will refcount it
and return it unconditionally without updating its flags. It is
possible, however, that the second (or any subsequent) caller of
device_link_add() for the same consumer-supplier pair will pass
DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME, possibly along with DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE, in flags
to it and the existing link may not behave as expected then.
First, if DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME is not set in the existing link's flags
at all, it needs to be set like during the original initialization of
the link.
Second, if DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE is passed to device_link_add() in flags
(in addition to DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME), the existing link should to be
updated to reflect the "active" runtime PM configuration of the
consumer-supplier pair and extra care must be taken here to avoid
possible destructive races with runtime PM of the consumer.
To that end, redefine the rpm_active field in struct device_link
as a refcount, initialize it to 1 and make rpm_resume() (for the
consumer) and device_link_add() increment it whenever they acquire
a runtime PM reference on the supplier device. Accordingly, make
rpm_suspend() (for the consumer) and pm_runtime_clean_up_links()
decrement it and drop runtime PM references to the supplier
device in a loop until rpm_active becones 1 again.

It is incorrect to call pm_runtime_get_sync() under
device_links_write_lock(), because it may end up trying to take
device_links_read_lock() while resuming the target device and that
will deadlock in the non-SRCU case, so avoid that by resuming the
supplier device in device_link_add() before calling
device_links_write_lock().

After commit ead18c23c263 ("driver core: Introduce device links
reference counting"), if there is a link between the given supplier
and the given consumer already, device_link_add() will refcount it
and return it unconditionally. However, if the flags passed to
it on the second (or any subsequent) attempt to create a device
link between the same consumer-supplier pair are not compatible with
the existing link's flags, that is incorrect.
First off, if the existing link is stateless and the next caller of
device_link_add() for the same consumer-supplier pair wants a
stateful one, or the other way around, the existing link cannot be
returned, because it will not match the expected behavior, so make
device_link_add() dump the stack and return NULL in that case.
Moreover, if the DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_CONSUMER flag is passed to
device_link_add(), its caller will expect its reference to the link
to be dropped automatically on consumer driver removal, which will
not happen if that flag is not set in the link's flags (and
analogously for DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_SUPPLIER). For this reason, make
device_link_add() update the existing link's flags accordingly
before returning it to the caller.

Change the list walk in device_links_driver_cleanup() to a safe one
to avoid use-after-free when dropping a link from the list during the
walk.
Also, while at it, fix device_link_add() to refuse to create
stateless device links with DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_SUPPLIER set, which is
an invalid combination (setting that flag means that the driver core
should manage the link, so it cannot be stateless), and extend the
kerneldoc comment of device_link_add() to cover the
DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_SUPPLIER flag properly too.

bitflag
Add an additional bit flag to the device_private struct named "dead".
This additional flag provides a guarantee that when a device_del is
executed on a given interface an async worker will not attempt to attach
the driver following the earlier device_del call. Previously this
guarantee was not present and could result in the device_del call
attempting to remove a driver from an interface only to have the async
worker attempt to probe the driver later when it finally completes the
asynchronous probe call.
One additional change added was that I pulled the check for dev->driver
out of the __device_attach_driver call and instead placed it in the
__device_attach_async_helper call. This was motivated by the fact that the
only other caller of this, __device_attach, had already taken the
device_lock() and checked for dev->driver. Instead of testing for this
twice in this path it makes more sense to just consolidate the dev->dead
and dev->driver checks together into one set of checks.

As the description of struct device_private says, it stores data which
is private to driver core. And it already has similar fields like:
knode_parent, knode_driver, knode_driver and knode_bus. This look it is
more proper to put knode_class together with those fields to make it
private to driver core.

Software node is a new struct fwnode_handle type that can be
used to describe devices in kernel (software). It is meant
to complement fwnodes representing real firmware nodes when
they are incomplete (for example missing device properties)
and to supply the primary fwnode when the firmware lacks
hardware description for a device completely.
The software node type is really meant to replace the
currently used "property_set" struct fwnode_handle type. The
handling of struct property_set is glued to the generic
device property handling code, and it is not possible to
create a struct property_set independently from the device
that it is bind to. struct property_set is only created when
device properties are added to already initialized struct
device, and control of it is only possible from the generic
property handling code.
Software nodes are instead designed to be created
independently from the device entries (struct device). It
makes them much more flexible, as then the device meant to
be bind to the node can be created at a later time, and from
another location. It is also possible to bind multiple
devices to a single software node if needed.
The software node implementation also includes support for
node hierarchy, which was the main motivation for this
commit. The node hierarchy was something that was requested
for the struct property_set, but it did not seem reasonable
to try to extend the property_set support for that purpose.
struct property_set was really meant only for device
property handling like the name suggests.
Support for struct property_set is not yet removed in this
commit, but it will be in the following one.

Since it should be possible to support several hardware
description models at the same time (at least in theory),
for example ACPI and devicetree on a running system, the
platform notifications need to be handled differently.
For now a single "platform_notify" callback function was
used to notify the underlying base system which is in charge
of the hardware description when a new device entry was
added to the system, but that callback is available to only
a single base system at the time. This will add a function
device_platform_notify() and replace all direct
platform_notify() calls with it.
device_platform_notify() will first simply call the
platform_notify() callback, so this commit has no functional
affect, however, the idea is that individual base systems

Do not warn about already existing dependencies because device_link_add()

There is a race window in device_shutdown(), which may cause
-1. parent device shut down before child or
-2. no shutdown on a new probing device.
For 1st, taking the following scenario:
device_shutdown new plugin device
list_del_init(parent_dev);
spin_unlock(list_lock);
device_add(child)
probe child
shutdown parent_dev
--> now child is on the tail of devices_kset
For 2nd, taking the following scenario:
device_shutdown new plugin device
device_add(dev)
device_lock(dev);
...
device_unlock(dev);
probe dev
--> now, the new occurred dev has no opportunity to shutdown
To fix this race issue, just prevent the new probing request. With this
logic, device_shutdown() is more similar to dpm_prepare().

For devices with a class, we create a "glue" directory between
the parent device and the new device with the class name.
This directory is never "explicitely" removed when empty however,
this is left to the implicit sysfs removal done by kobject_release()
when the object loses its last reference via kobject_put().
This is problematic because as long as it's not been removed from
sysfs, it is still present in the class kset and in sysfs directory
structure.
The presence in the class kset exposes a use after free bug fixed
by the previous patch, but the presence in sysfs means that until
the kobject is released, which can take a while (especially with
kobject debugging), any attempt at re-creating such as binding a
new device for that class/parent pair, will result in a sysfs
duplicate file name error.
This fixes it by instead doing an explicit kobject_del() when
the glue dir is empty, by keeping track of the number of
child devices of the gluedir.
This is made easy by the fact that all glue dir operations are
done with a global mutex, and there's already a function
(cleanup_glue_dir) called in all the right places taking that
mutex that can be enhanced for this. It appears that this was
in fact the intent of the function, but the implementation was
wrong.

If a device link is added via device_link_add() by the driver of the
link's consumer device, the supplier's runtime PM usage counter is
going to be dropped by the pm_runtime_put_suppliers() call in
driver_probe_device(). However, in that case it is not incremented
unless the supplier driver is already present and the link is not
stateless. That leads to a runtime PM usage counter imbalance for
the supplier device in a few cases.
To prevent that from happening, bump up the supplier runtime
PM usage counter in device_link_add() for all links with the
DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME flag set that are added at the consumer probe
time. Use pm_runtime_get_noresume() for that as the callers of
device_link_add() who want the supplier to be resumed by it are
expected to pass DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE in flags to it anyway, but
additionally resume the supplier if the link is added during
consumer driver probe to retain the existing behavior for the
callers depending on it.

When bridge and its endpoint is enumerated the devices are added to the

This causes the bridge to be moved to the end of the dpm list when
deferred probe kicks in. The order of the dpm list for bridge and
endpoint is reversed.
Add reordering code to move the bridge and its children and consumers to

If device_link_add() is invoked multiple times with the same supplier
and consumer combo, it will create the link on first addition and
return a pointer to the already existing link on all subsequent
additions.
The semantics for device_link_del() are quite different, it deletes
the link unconditionally, so multiple invocations are not allowed.
In other words, this snippet ...
struct device *dev1, *dev2;
struct device_link *link1, *link2;
link1 = device_link_add(dev1, dev2, 0);
link2 = device_link_add(dev1, dev2, 0);
device_link_del(link1);
device_link_del(link2);
... causes the following crash:
WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 2686 at drivers/base/power/runtime.c:1611 pm_runtime_drop_link+0x40/0x50

list_del corruption, 0000000039b800a4->prev is LIST_POISON2 (00000000ecf79852)
kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:50!
The issue isn't as arbitrary as it may seem: Imagine a device link
which is added in both the supplier's and the consumer's ->probe hook.
The two drivers can't just call device_link_del() in their ->remove hook
without coordination.
Fix by counting multiple additions and dropping the device link only
when the last addition is unwound.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add a console_msg_format command line option:
The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.
This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.
- Reduce the risk of softlockup:
Pass the console owner in a busy loop.
This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.
The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.
There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.
- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():
This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.
- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:
It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.
Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.
- Remove printk_symbol() API:
It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.
- Remove redundant memsets:
Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.

When error happens, these interators return the error, no interation should
be continued, so make the change for getting out of while immediately.

Now that the SPDX tag is in all driver core files, that identifies the
license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text
wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.
This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.
No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.
