<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

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.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<content type='text'>
Several drivers can benefit from registering per-instance data along
with the syscore operations. To achieve this, move the modifiable fields
out of the syscore_ops structure and into a separate struct syscore that
can be registered with the framework. Add a void * driver data field for
drivers to store contextual data that will be passed to the syscore ops.

<title>powerpc: Drop zalloc_maybe_bootmem()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fabdb27da78afb93b0a83c0579025cb8d05c0d2d</id>
<content type='text'>
The only callers of zalloc_maybe_bootmem() are PCI setup routines. These
used to be called early during boot before slab setup, and also during
runtime due to hotplug.

But commit 5537fcb319d0 ("powerpc/pci: Add ppc_md.discover_phbs()")
moved the boot-time calls later, after slab setup, meaning there's no
longer any need for zalloc_maybe_bootmem(), kzalloc() can be used in all
cases.

<title>iommu/fsl: Use driver_managed_dma to allow VFIO to work</title>
<updated>2023-06-01T09:47:48+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=139a57a9918ede7205e56070e41ba00a5f62799e'/>
<id>urn:sha1:139a57a9918ede7205e56070e41ba00a5f62799e</id>
<content type='text'>
The FSL driver is mangling the iommu_groups to not have a group for its
PCI bridge/controller (eg the thing passed to fsl_add_bridge()). Robin
says this is so FSL could work with VFIO which would be blocked by having
a probed driver on the platform_device in the same group. This is
supported by comments from FSL:

 https://lore.kernel.org/all/C5ECD7A89D1DC44195F34B25E172658D459471@039-SN2MPN1-013.039d.mgd.msft.net

 ..  PCIe devices share the same device group as the PCI controller. This
  becomes a problem while assigning the devices to the guest, as you are
  required to unbind all the PCIe devices including the controller from the
  host. PCIe controller can't be unbound from the host, so we simply delete
  the controller iommu_group.

However, today, we use driver_managed_dma to allow PCI infrastructure
devices that are 'security safe' to co-exist in groups and still allow
VFIO to work. Set this flag for the fsl_pci_driver.

Change fsl_pamu_device_group() so that it no longer removes the controller
from any groups. For check_pci_ctl_endpt_part() mode this creates an extra
group that contains only the controller.

Otherwise force the controller's single group to be the group of all the
PCI devices on the controller's hose. VFIO continues to work because of
driver_managed_dma.

Remove the iommu_group_remove_device() calls from fsl_pamu and lightly
restructure its fsl_pamu_device_group() function.

<content type='text'>
If there's no PCI host bridge with ISA then check for PCI host bridge with
alias "pci0" (first PCI host bridge) and if it exists then choose it as the
primary PCI host bridge.

This makes choice of primary PCI host bridge more stable across boots and
updates as the last fallback candidate for primary PCI host bridge (if
there is no choice) is selected arbitrary.

powerpc configuration item.

And we already have CONFIG_PPC_E500MC, so that will make
it more consistent.
