[ Upstream commit ac4d8bb6e2e13e8684a76ea48d13ebaaaf5c24c4 ]

When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.

Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.

Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]

[ Upstream commit f65c75b0b9b5a390bc3beadcde0a6fbc3ad118f7 ]

`css_alloc_subchannel()` calls `device_initialize()` before setting up
the DMA masks. If `dma_set_coherent_mask()` or `dma_set_mask()` fails,
the error path frees the subchannel structure directly, bypassing
the device model reference counting.

Once `device_initialize()` has been called, the embedded struct device
must be released via `put_device()`, allowing the release callback to
free the container structure.

Fix the error path by dropping the initial device reference with
`put_device()` instead of calling `kfree()` directly.

This ensures correct device lifetime handling and avoids potential
use-after-free or double-free issues.

[ Upstream commit 9daa5a8795865f9a3c93d8d1066785b07ded6073 ]

Starting with 'commit 2297791c92d0 ("s390/cio: dont unregister
subchannel from child-drivers")', cio no longer unregisters
subchannels when the attached device is invalid or unavailable.

As an unintended side-effect, the cio_ignore purge function no longer
removes subchannels for devices on the cio_ignore list if no CCW device
is attached. This situation occurs when a CCW device is non-operational
or unavailable

To ensure the same outcome of the purge function as when the
current cio_ignore list had been active during boot, update the purge
function to remove I/O subchannels without working CCW devices if the
associated device number is found on the cio_ignore list.

<title>s390/cio: Fix CHPID "configure" attribute caching</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e129f729150614aa71495d53e768dbadcab62763</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 32ae4a2992529e2c7934e422035fad1d9b0f1fb5 ]

In some environments, the SCLP firmware interface used to query a
CHPID's configured state is not supported. On these environments,
rapidly reading the corresponding sysfs attribute produces inconsistent
results:

  $ cat /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure
  cat: /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure: Operation not supported
  $ cat /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure
  3

This occurs for example when Linux is run as a KVM guest. The
inconsistency is a result of CIO using cached results for generating
the value of the "configure" attribute while failing to handle the
situation where no data was returned by SCLP.

Fix this by not updating the cache-expiration timestamp when SCLP
returns no data. With the fix applied, the system response is
consistent:

  $ cat /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure
  cat: /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure: Operation not supported
  $ cat /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure
  cat: /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure: Operation not supported

[ Upstream commit 8c58a229688ce3a097b3b1a2efe1b4f5508c2123 ]

Starting with commit 2297791c92d0 ("s390/cio: dont unregister
subchannel from child-drivers"), CIO does not unregister subchannels
when the attached device is invalid or unavailable. Instead, it
allows subchannels to exist without a connected device. However, if
the DNV value is 0, such as, when all the CHPIDs of a subchannel are
configured in standby state, the subchannel is unregistered, which
contradicts the current subchannel specification.

Update the logic so that subchannels are not unregistered based
on the DNV value. Also update the SCHIB information even if the
DNV bit is zero.

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441
("fs: remove no_llseek")

To quote that commit,

  At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -

  git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
	sed -i '/\&lt;no_llseek\&gt;/d' $i
  done

  would do it.

Unfortunately, that hadn't been done.  Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form
	.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1.

  Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving
  which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes
  in here are:

   - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases
     to get here, finally!)

   - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core
     interactions.

     It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver in rust" type
     of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the phy rust
     drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on which
     others can start their work.

     There is still a long way to go here before we have a multitude of
     rust drivers being added, but it's a great first step.

   - driver core const api changes.

     This reached across all bus types, and there are some fix-ups for
     some not-common bus types that linux-next and 0-day testing shook
     out.

     This work is being done to help make the rust bindings more safe,
     as well as the C code, moving toward the end-goal of allowing us to
     put driver structures into read-only memory. We aren't there yet,
     but are getting closer.

   - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection

   - arch_topology minor changes

   - other minor driver core cleanups

  All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
  reported problems"

 - Remove restrictions on PAI NNPA and crypto counters, enabling
   concurrent per-task and system-wide sampling and counting events

 - Switch to GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES by setting up the CPU present mask in
   the architecture code and letting the generic code handle CPU
   bring-up

 - Add support for the diag204 busy indication facility to prevent
   undesirable blocking during hypervisor logical CPU utilization
   queries. Implement results caching

 - Improve the handling of Store Data SCLP events by suppressing
   unnecessary warning, preventing buffer release in I/O during
   failures, and adding timeout handling for Store Data requests to
   address potential firmware issues

 - Provide optimized __arch_hweight*() implementations

 - Remove the unnecessary CPU KOBJ_CHANGE uevents generated during
   topology updates, as they are unused and also not present on other
   architectures

 - Cleanup atomic_ops, optimize __atomic_set() for small values and
   __atomic_cmpxchg_bool() for compilers supporting flag output
   constraint

 - Couple of cleanups for KVM:
     - Move and improve KVM struct definitions for DAT tables from
       gaccess.c to a new header
     - Pass the asce as parameter to sie64a()

 - Make the crdte() and cspg() page table handling wrappers return a
   boolean to indicate success, like the other existing "compare and
   swap" wrappers

 - Add documentation for HWCAP flags

 - Switch to obtaining total RAM pages from memblock instead of
   totalram_pages() during mm init, to ensure correct calculation of
   zero page size, when defer_init is enabled

 - Refactor lowcore access and switch to using the get_lowcore()
   function instead of the S390_lowcore macro

<title>driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const *</title>

<content type='text'>
In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be
changed, so change the function callback to be a const *.  This is one
step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct
device_driver in read-only memory.

Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified
to handle this properly.  This does entail switching some container_of()
calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *.

For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in
the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at
this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.)
That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their
struct device * in read-only-memory.
