coresight: etb10: restore atomic_t for shared reading state

2026-07-24T13:49:20+00:00

[ Upstream commit fa09f08ede3db3050ae16ae1ed92c902d0cada23 ] The etb10 miscdevice uses drvdata->reading as a shared exclusivity gate for userspace buffer access. etb_open() claims that gate with local_cmpxchg(), and etb_release() clears it with local_set(). That gate is shared per-device state rather than CPU-local state. A running system can reach it whenever /dev/ is opened, closed, and reopened by different tasks while the device remains registered, so the same drvdata->reading variable may be claimed on one CPU and later cleared on another. This code used to use atomic_t for the same gate, but commit 27b10da8fff2 ("coresight: etb10: moving to local atomic operations") changed it to local_t even though the access pattern remained cross-task and cross-CPU. Restore atomic_t together with atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_set() so the exclusivity gate again uses a primitive intended for shared state. The issue was found on Linux v6.18.21 by our static analysis tool while scanning surviving local_t-on-shared-state sites, and then manually reviewed against the live etb10 file-op path. It was runtime-validated with a reproducible QEMU no-device KCSAN PoC that kept the same report-local contract: 1. use one shared struct etb_drvdata carrier and its drvdata->reading gate; 2. call etb_open() and etb_release() sequentially on that gate to confirm the original claim/clear path; 3. bind the open side to CPU0 and the release side to CPU1 for the same gate to show cross-CPU ownership; 4. run bound workers that repeatedly race etb_open() and etb_release() on the same gate until KCSAN reports a target hit. The harness recorded: L1 passed open=1 release=1 reading_after_open=1 reading_after_release=0 L2 passed open_cpu=0 release_cpu=1 cross_cpu_release=1 reading_after=0 open_ret=0 Representative KCSAN excerpt from the no-device validation run: BUG: KCSAN: data-race in etb_open.constprop.0.isra.0 [vuln_msv] write to 0xffffffffc0003810 of 4 bytes by task 216 on cpu 1: etb_open.constprop.0.isra.0+0x38/0x80 [vuln_msv] l3_worker_thread_fn+0x4f/0xf0 [vuln_msv] kthread+0x17e/0x1c0 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 read to 0xffffffffc0003810 of 4 bytes by task 215 on cpu 0: etb_open.constprop.0.isra.0+0x18/0x80 [vuln_msv] l3_worker_thread_fn+0x4f/0xf0 [vuln_msv] kthread+0x17e/0x1c0 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 value changed: 0x00000000 -> 0x00000001 Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on: CPU: 0 PID: 215 Comm: etb10_l3_a Tainted: G O 6.1.66 #2 This no-device harness is not a real ETB10 hardware end-to-end run, but it preserves the same shared drvdata->reading gate and the same etb_open()/etb_release() claim/clear contract.

coresight: cti: Fix DT filter signals silently ignored

2026-07-24T13:49:01+00:00

[ Upstream commit 551bb2fd5e4ed63d33aa11f07102cce5179b7595 ] In cti_plat_process_filter_sigs(), after allocating a temporary cti_trig_grp struct via kzalloc_obj(), the code never assigns tg->nr_sigs = nr_filter_sigs. Since kzalloc zero-initialises the struct, tg->nr_sigs remains 0. cti_plat_read_trig_group() guards with: if (!tgrp->nr_sigs) return 0; so it returns immediately without reading any signal indices from DT. Fix by assigning tg->nr_sigs before calling cti_plat_read_trig_group().

coresight: etm3x: Fix cpulocked warning on cpuhp

2026-03-04T12:19:44+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1feb0377b9b816f89a04fc381eb19fc6bac9f4a4 ] When changes [1] and [2] have been applied to the driver etm4x, the same modifications have been also collapsed in [3] and applied in one shot to the driver etm3x. While doing this, the driver etm3x has not been aligned to etm4x on the use of non cpuslocked version of cpuhp callback setup APIs. The current code triggers two run-time warnings when the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y. Use non cpuslocked version of cpuhp callback setup APIs in driver etm3x, aligning it to the driver etm4x.

intel_th: fix device leak on output open()

commit 95fc36a234da24bbc5f476f8104a5a15f99ed3e3 upstream. Make sure to drop the reference taken when looking up the th device during output device open() on errors and on close().

intel_th: Fix error handling in intel_th_output_open

2026-01-19T12:11:49+00:00

commit 6d5925b667e4ed9e77c8278cc215191d29454a3f upstream. intel_th_output_open() calls bus_find_device_by_devt() which internally increments the device reference count via get_device(), but this reference is not properly released in several error paths. When device driver is unavailable, file operations cannot be obtained, or the driver's open method fails, the function returns without calling put_device(), leading to a permanent device reference count leak. This prevents the device from being properly released and could cause resource exhaustion over time. Found by code review.
