arm64: Fix sampling the "stable" virtual counter in preemptible section

2026-03-04T12:20:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit e5cb94ba5f96d691d8885175d4696d6ae6bc5ec9 ] Ben reports that when running with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT, using __arch_counter_get_cntvct_stable() results in well deserves warnings, as we access a per-CPU variable without preemption disabled. Fix the issue by disabling preemption on reading the counter. We can probably do a lot better by not disabling preemption on systems that do not require horrible workarounds to return a valid counter value, but this plugs the issue for the time being.

NTB: ntb_transport: Fix too small buffer for debugfs_name

[ Upstream commit 6a4b50585d74fe45d3ade1e3e86ba8aae79761a5 ] The buffer used for "qp%d" was only 4 bytes, which truncates names like "qp10" to "qp1" and causes multiple queues to share the same directory. Enlarge the buffer and use sizeof() to avoid truncation.

net: nfc: nci: Fix parameter validation for packet data

2026-03-04T12:20:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit 571dcbeb8e635182bb825ae758399831805693c2 ] Since commit 9c328f54741b ("net: nfc: nci: Add parameter validation for packet data") communication with nci nfc chips is not working any more. The mentioned commit tries to fix access of uninitialized data, but failed to understand that in some cases the data packet is of variable length and can therefore not be compared to the maximum packet length given by the sizeof(struct).

arm64: Force the use of CNTVCT_EL0 in __delay()

2026-03-04T12:20:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit 29cc0f3aa7c64d3b3cb9d94c0a0984ba6717bf72 ] Quentin forwards a report from Hyesoo Yu, describing an interesting problem with the use of WFxT in __delay() when a vcpu is loaded and that KVM is *not* in VHE mode (either nVHE or hVHE). In this case, CNTVOFF_EL2 is set to a non-zero value to reflect the state of the guest virtual counter. At the same time, __delay() is using get_cycles() to read the counter value, which is indirected to reading CNTPCT_EL0. The core of the issue is that WFxT is using the *virtual* counter, while the kernel is using the physical counter, and that the offset introduces a really bad discrepancy between the two. Fix this by forcing the use of CNTVCT_EL0, making __delay() consistent irrespective of the value of CNTVOFF_EL2.

x86/kexec: Copy ACPI root pointer address from config table

2026-03-04T12:20:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit e00ac9e5afb5d80c0168ec88d8e8662a54af8249 ] Dave reports that kexec may fail when the first kernel boots via the EFI stub but without EFI runtime services, as in that case, the RSDP address field in struct bootparams is never assigned. Kexec copies this value into the version of struct bootparams that it provides to the incoming kernel, which may have no other means to locate the ACPI root pointer. So take the value from the EFI config tables if no root pointer has been set in the first kernel's struct bootparams.

net/sched: act_skbedit: fix divide-by-zero in tcf_skbedit_hash()

2026-03-04T12:20:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit be054cc66f739a9ba615dba9012a07fab8e7dd6f ] Commit 38a6f0865796 ("net: sched: support hash selecting tx queue") added SKBEDIT_F_TXQ_SKBHASH support. The inclusive range size is computed as: mapping_mod = queue_mapping_max - queue_mapping + 1; The range size can be 65536 when the requested range covers all possible u16 queue IDs (e.g. queue_mapping=0 and queue_mapping_max=U16_MAX). That value cannot be represented in a u16 and previously wrapped to 0, so tcf_skbedit_hash() could trigger a divide-by-zero: queue_mapping += skb_get_hash(skb) % params->mapping_mod; Compute mapping_mod in a wider type and reject ranges larger than U16_MAX to prevent params->mapping_mod from becoming 0 and avoid the crash.

ASoC: amd: yc: Add DMI quirk for ASUS Vivobook Pro 15X M6501RR

[ Upstream commit ff9cadd1a2c0b2665b7377ac79540d66f212e7e3 ] The ASUS Vivobook Pro 15X (M6501RR) with AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX has an internal DMIC that is not detected without a DMI quirk entry, as the BIOS does not set the AcpDmicConnected ACPI _DSD property. Adding the DMI entry enables the ACP6x DMIC machine driver to probe successfully.
