Documentation: fix a hugetlbfs reservation statement

2026-06-01T15:29:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7a197d346a44384a1a858a98ef03766840e561d4 ] Documentation/mm/hugetlbfs_reserv.rst has if (resv_needed <= (resv_huge_pages - free_huge_pages)) resv_huge_pages += resv_needed; which describes this code in gather_surplus_pages() needed = (h->resv_huge_pages + delta) - h->free_huge_pages; if (needed <= 0) { h->resv_huge_pages += delta; return 0; } which means if there are enough free hugepages to account for the new reservation, simply update the global reservation count without further action. But the description is backwards, it should be if (resv_needed <= (free_huge_pages - resv_huge_pages)) instead.

hwmon: (adm1177) fix sysfs ABI violation and current unit conversion

2026-04-18T08:31:06+00:00

[ Upstream commit bf08749a6abb6d1959bfdc0edc32c640df407558 ] The adm1177 driver exposes the current alert threshold through hwmon_curr_max_alarm. This violates the hwmon sysfs ABI, where *_alarm attributes are read-only status flags and writable thresholds must use currN_max. The driver also stores the threshold internally in microamps, while currN_max is defined in milliamps. Convert the threshold accordingly on both the read and write paths. Widen the cached threshold and related calculations to 64 bits so that small shunt resistor values do not cause truncation or overflow. Also use 64-bit arithmetic for the mA/uA conversions, clamp writes to the range the hardware can represent, and propagate failures from adm1177_write_alert_thr() instead of silently ignoring them. Update the hwmon documentation to reflect the attribute rename and the correct units returned by the driver.

fou: Don't allow 0 for FOU_ATTR_IPPROTO.

[ Upstream commit 7a9bc9e3f42391e4c187e099263cf7a1c4b69ff5 ] fou_udp_recv() has the same problem mentioned in the previous patch. If FOU_ATTR_IPPROTO is set to 0, skb is not freed by fou_udp_recv() nor "resubmit"-ted in ip_protocol_deliver_rcu(). Let's forbid 0 for FOU_ATTR_IPPROTO.

fs_context: drop the unused lsm_flags member

Any FS that uses the SECURITY_LSM_NATIVE_LABELS flag needs to also process the value returned back from the LSM, so it needs to do its security_sb_set_mnt_opts() call on its own anyway.

PCI: Add sysfs attribute for device power state

2025-10-29T13:01:24+00:00

[ Upstream commit 80a129afb75cba8434fc5071bd6919172442315c ] While PCI power states D0-D3hot can be queried from user-space via lspci, D3cold cannot. lspci cannot provide an accurate value when the device is in D3cold as it has to restore the device to D0 before it can access its power state via the configuration space, leading to it reporting D0 or another on-state. Thus lspci cannot be used to diagnose power consumption issues for devices that can enter D3cold or to ensure that devices properly enter D3cold at all. Add a new sysfs device attribute for the PCI power state, showing the current power state as seen by the kernel.
