use less confusing names for iov_iter direction initializers

2026-06-19T11:21:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit de4eda9de2d957ef2d6a8365a01e26a435e958cb ] READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are "data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as "we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly the wrong way. Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder to misinterpret...

HID: pass the buffer size to hid_report_raw_event

iommu, debugobjects: avoid gcc-16.1 section mismatch warnings

2026-06-19T11:21:29+00:00

commit 4c9ad387aa2d6785299722e54224d34764edaeb3 upstream. gcc-16 has gained some more advanced inter-procedual optimization techniques that enable it to inline the dummy_tlb_add_page() and dummy_tlb_flush() function pointers into a specialized version of __arm_v7s_unmap: WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: __arm_v7s_unmap+0x2cc (section: .text) -> dummy_tlb_add_page (section: .init.text) ERROR: modpost: Section mismatches detected. >From what I can tell, the transformation is correct, as this is only called when __arm_v7s_unmap() is called from arm_v7s_do_selftests(), which is also __init. Since __arm_v7s_unmap() however is not __init, gcc cannot inline the inner function calls directly. In debug_objects_selftest(), the same thing happens. Both the caller and the leaf function are __init, but the IPA pulls it into a non-init one: WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: lookup_object_or_alloc+0x7c (section: .text.lookup_object_or_alloc) -> is_static_object (section: .init.text) Marking the affected functions as not "__init" would reliably avoid this issue but is not a good solution because it removes an otherwise correct annotation. I tried marking the functions as 'noinline', but that ended up not covering all the affected configurations. With some more experimenting, I found that marking these functions as __attribute__((noipa)) is both logical and reliable. In order to keep the syntax readable, add a custom macro for this in include/linux/compiler_attributes.h next to other related macros and use it to annotate both files.

parport: Fix race between port and client registration

2026-06-19T11:21:28+00:00

commit ef15ccbb3e8640a723c42ad90eaf81d66ae02017 upstream. The parport subsystem registers port devices before they are fully initialised, resulting in a race condition where client drivers such as lp can attach to ports that are not completely initialised or even being torn down. When the port and client drivers are built as modules and loaded around the same time during boot, this occasionally results in a crash. I was able to make this happen reliably in a VM with a PC-style parallel port by patching parport_pc to fail probing: > --- a/drivers/parport/parport_pc.c > +++ b/drivers/parport/parport_pc.c > @@ -2069,7 +2069,7 @@ static struct parport *__parport_pc_probe_port(unsigned long int base, > if (!p) > goto out3; > > - base_res = request_region(base, 3, p->name); > + base_res = NULL; > if (!base_res) > goto out4; > and then running: while true; do modprobe lp & modprobe parport_pc wait rmmod lp parport_pc done for a few seconds. In the long term I think port registration should be changed to put the call to device_add() inside parport_announce_port(), but since the latter currently cannot fail this will require changing all port drivers. For now, add a flag to indicate whether a port has been "announced" and only try to attach client drivers to ports when the flag is set.

string: add mem_is_zero() helper to check if memory area is all zeros

[ Upstream commit 3942bb49728ad9e1f94d953a88af169a8f5d8099 ] Almost two thirds of the memchr_inv() usages check if the memory area is all zeros, with no interest in where in the buffer the first non-zero byte is located. Checking for !memchr_inv(s, 0, n) is also not very intuitive or discoverable. Add an explicit mem_is_zero() helper for this use case.

cdrom, scsi: sr: propagate read-only status to block layer via set_disk_ro()

2026-06-01T15:29:43+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0898a817621a2f0cddca8122d9b974003fe5036d ] The cdrom core never calls set_disk_ro() for a registered device, so BLKROGET on a CD-ROM device always returns 0 (writable), even when the drive has no write capabilities and writes will inevitably fail. This causes problems for userspace that relies on BLKROGET to determine whether a block device is read-only. For example, systemd's loop device setup uses BLKROGET to decide whether to create a loop device with LO_FLAGS_READ_ONLY. Without the read-only flag, writes pass through the loop device to the CD-ROM and fail with I/O errors. systemd-fsck similarly checks BLKROGET to decide whether to run fsck in no-repair mode (-n). The write-capability bits in cdi->mask come from two different sources: CDC_DVD_RAM and CDC_CD_RW are populated by the driver from the MODE SENSE capabilities page (page 0x2A) before register_cdrom() is called, while CDC_MRW_W and CDC_RAM require the MMC GET CONFIGURATION command and were only probed by cdrom_open_write() at device open time. This meant that any attempt to compute the writable state from the full mask at probe time was incorrect, because the GET CONFIGURATION bits were still unset (and cdi->mask is initialized such that capabilities are assumed present). Fix this by factoring the GET CONFIGURATION probing out of cdrom_open_write() into a new exported helper, cdrom_probe_write_features(), and having sr call it from sr_probe() right after get_capabilities() has populated the MODE SENSE bits. register_cdrom() then calls set_disk_ro() based on the full write-capability mask (CDC_DVD_RAM | CDC_MRW_W | CDC_RAM | CDC_CD_RW) so the block layer reflects the drive's actual write support. The feature queries used (CDF_MRW and CDF_RWRT via GET CONFIGURATION with RT=00) report drive-level capabilities that are persistent across media, so a single probe before register_cdrom() is sufficient and the redundant probe at open time is dropped. With set_disk_ro() now accurate, the long-vestigial cd->writeable flag in sr can go: get_capabilities() used to set cd->writeable based on the same four mask bits, but because CDC_MRW_W and CDC_RAM default to "capability present" in cdi->mask and aren't touched by MODE SENSE, the condition that gated cd->writeable was always true, making it unconditionally 1. Replace the corresponding gate in sr_init_command() with get_disk_ro(cd->disk), which turns a previously no-op check into a real one and also catches kernel-internal bio writers that bypass blkdev_write_iter()'s bdev_read_only() check. The sd driver (SCSI disks) does not have this problem because it checks the MODE SENSE Write Protect bit and calls set_disk_ro() accordingly. The sr driver cannot use the same approach because the MMC specification does not define the WP bit in the MODE SENSE device-specific parameter byte for CD-ROM devices.
