commit 979c294509f9248fe1e7c358d582fb37dd5ca12d upstream.

After commit 0652a3daa787 ("tracing: Fix CFI violation in probestub
being called by tprobes"), there are many build errors when building
ARCH=arm multi_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_CFI=y like:

  In file included from drivers/base/devres.c:17:
  In file included from drivers/base/trace.h:16:
  In file included from include/linux/tracepoint.h:23:
  include/linux/cfi.h:44:6: error: call to undeclared function 'get_kernel_nofault'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
     44 |         if (get_kernel_nofault(hash, func - cfi_get_offset()))
        |             ^
  1 error generated.

get_kernel_nofault() is called in the generic version of
cfi_get_func_hash() but nothing ensures uaccess.h is always included for
a proper expansion and prototype.  Include uaccess.h in cfi.h to clear
up the errors.

commit 0652a3daa78723f955b1ebeb621665ce72bec53e upstream.

The probestub is a function to allow tprobes to hook to a tracepoint to
gain access to its parameters. The function itself is only referenced by
the tracepoint structure which lives in the __tracepoint section. objtool
explicitly ignores that section and when processing functions in the
kernel, if it detects one that has no references it will seal it to have
its ENDBR stripped on boot up.

This means when a tprobe is attached to the sched_wakeup tracepoint, when it
is triggered it will call __probestub_sched_wakeup and due to the missing
ENDBR on a CFI-enabled machine it will take a #CP exception.

Fix this by adding CFI_NOSEAL annotation to probestub declaration.

<title>mm/memory-failure: fix hugetlb_lock AA deadlock in get_huge_page_for_hwpoison</title>

commit 3c2d42b8ee345b17a4ba56b0f6492d1ff4c1178e upstream.

Two concurrent madvise(MADV_HWPOISON) calls on the same hugetlb page can
trigger a recursive spinlock self-deadlock (AA deadlock) on hugetlb_lock
when racing with a concurrent unmap:

  thread#0                              thread#1
  --------                              --------
  madvise(folio, MADV_HWPOISON)
    -&gt; poisons the folio successfully
  madvise(folio, MADV_HWPOISON)         unmap(folio)
    try_memory_failure_hugetlb
      get_huge_page_for_hwpoison
        spin_lock_irq(&amp;hugetlb_lock)    &lt;- held
        __get_huge_page_for_hwpoison
          hugetlb_update_hwpoison()
            -&gt; MF_HUGETLB_FOLIO_PRE_POISONED
          goto out:
            folio_put()
              refcount: 1 -&gt; 0
              free_huge_folio()
                spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;hugetlb_lock)
                  -&gt; AA DEADLOCK!

The out: path in __get_huge_page_for_hwpoison() calls folio_put() to drop
the GUP reference while the hugetlb_lock is still held by the hugetlb.c
wrapper get_huge_page_for_hwpoison().  If concurrent unmap has released
the page table mapping reference, folio_put() drops the folio refcount to
zero, triggering free_huge_folio() which attempts to re-acquire the
non-recursive hugetlb_lock.

Fix this by moving hugetlb_lock acquisition from the hugetlb.c wrapper
into get_huge_page_for_hwpoison().  Place spin_unlock_irq() before the
folio_put() at the out: label so the folio is always released outside the
lock.

[ Upstream commit 894e036a24a26a6dd7b17d8d3fb5c53ab48a6074 ]

mlx5_query_nic_vport_mac_list() sizes its firmware command buffer using
the PF's log_max_current_uc/mc_list capabilities. When querying a VF
vport with a larger configured max (via devlink), the firmware response
can overflow this buffer:

Fix by querying the vport's own HCA caps to size the buffer correctly.
Refactor the function to allocate and return the MAC list internally,
removing the caller's dependency on knowing the correct max.

[ Upstream commit c5c3ef8d49e15d2fc1cec4ad7c91d81b99977440 ]

Currently, VMBus code initiates a VMBus unload in the panic path so
that if a kdump kernel is loaded, it can start fresh in setting up its
own VMBus connection. However, a driver for the VMBus virtual frame
buffer may need to flush dirty portions of the frame buffer back to
the Hyper-V host so that panic information is visible in the graphics
console. To support such flushing, provide exported functions for the
frame buffer driver to specify that the VMBus unload should not be
done by the VMBus driver, and to initiate the VMBus unload itself.
Together these allow a frame buffer driver to delay the VMBus unload
until after it has completed the flush.

Ideally, the VMBus driver could use its own panic-path callback to do
the unload after all frame buffer drivers have finished. But DRM frame
buffer drivers use the kmsg dump callback, and there are no callbacks
after that in the panic path. Hence this somewhat messy approach to
properly sequencing the frame buffer flush and the VMBus unload.

<id>urn:sha1:00869f2320dc55f49e36f9677a6ce5c530d67534</id>
<content type='text'>
commit c58e9456e30c7098cbcd9f04571992be8a2e4e63 upstream.

The active_req field serves double duty as both the "is a TX in
flight" flag (NULL means idle) and the storage for the in-flight
message pointer. When a client sends NULL via mbox_send_message(),
active_req is set to NULL, which the framework misinterprets as
"no active request". This breaks the TX state machine by:

 - tx_tick() short-circuits on (!mssg), skipping the tx_done
   callback and the tx_complete completion
 - txdone_hrtimer() skips the channel entirely since active_req
   is NULL, so poll-based TX-done detection never fires.

Fix this by introducing a MBOX_NO_MSG sentinel value that means
"no active request," freeing NULL to be valid message data. The
sentinel is defined in the subsystem-internal mailbox.h so that
controller drivers within drivers/mailbox/ can reference it, but
it is not exposed to clients outside the subsystem.

Fifteen in-tree callers send NULL (doorbell-style IPCs on Qualcomm,
Tegra, TI, Xilinx, i.MX, SCMI, and PCC platforms). All were
audited for regression:

 - Most already work around the bug via knows_txdone=true with a
   manual mbox_client_txdone() call, making the framework's
   tracking irrelevant. These are unaffected.

 - Poll-based callers (Xilinx zynqmp/r5) are strictly better off:
   the poll timer now correctly detects NULL-active channels
   instead of silently skipping them.

 - irq-qcom-mpm.c was a pre-existing bug -- the only Qualcomm
   caller that omitted the knows_txdone + mbox_client_txdone()
   pattern. Fixed in a companion commit ("irqchip/qcom-mpm: Fix
   missing mailbox TX done acknowledgment").

 - No caller sets both a tx_done callback and sends NULL, nor
   combines tx_block=true with NULL sends, so the newly reachable
   callback/completion paths are never exercised.

Also update tegra-hsp's flush callback, which directly inspects
active_req to wait for the channel to drain: the old "!= NULL"
check becomes "!= MBOX_NO_MSG", otherwise flush spins until
timeout since the sentinel is non-NULL.

The only tradeoff is that 'MBOX_NO_MSG' can not be used as a message
by clients.

commit c3cce2e67bb22a223f5b8ef05db0fcde70994068 upstream.

uart_handle_break() and uart_prepare_sysrq_char() (in
include/linux/serial_core.h) capture a SysRq character into
port-&gt;sysrq_ch while the port lock is held and rely on the unlock
helper -- uart_unlock_and_check_sysrq_irqrestore() -- to dispatch the
captured character to handle_sysrq() on scope exit.

The existing guard(uart_port_lock_irqsave) cannot be used by IRQ
handlers that process RX, because its destructor calls plain
uart_port_unlock_irqrestore() and silently drops port-&gt;sysrq_ch.

Add a dedicated guard(uart_port_lock_check_sysrq_irqsave) variant
whose destructor is the sysrq-aware unlock helper. The lock side is
identical to uart_port_lock_irqsave -- only the unlock-time behaviour
differs. Callers that may capture SysRq characters must use
guard(uart_port_lock_check_sysrq_irqsave); the existing
guard(uart_port_lock_irqsave) keeps its current plain-unlock semantics
for the many callers that do not process RX.

The new macro is placed after the CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL block so
both definitions of uart_unlock_and_check_sysrq_irqrestore() (sysrq
enabled and disabled) are visible at expansion time. When
CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL=n the destructor degenerates to plain
uart_port_unlock_irqrestore(), so there is no overhead.

No functional change on its own; users are converted in the following
patches.
