[ Upstream commit 5acab6eb592387191c1bb745ba9b815e1e076db5 ]

During hisilicon accelerator live migration operation. In order to
prevent the problem of EQ/AEQ interrupt loss. Migration driver will
trigger an EQ/AEQ doorbell at the end of the migration.

This operation may cause double interruption of EQ/AEQ events.
To ensure that the EQ/AEQ interrupt processing function is normal.
The interrupt handling functionality of EQ/AEQ needs to be updated.
Used to handle repeated interrupts event.

[ Upstream commit 077c212f0344ae4198b2b51af128a94b614ccdf4 ]

Recently, we converted the ctime accesses in the kernel to use new
accessor functions. Linus recently pointed out though that if we add
accessors for the atime and mtime, then that would allow us to
seamlessly change how these timestamps are stored in the inode.

Add new accessor functions for the atime and mtime that mirror the
accessors for the ctime.

<title>keys, dns: Allow key types (eg. DNS) to be reclaimed immediately on expiry</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 39299bdd2546688d92ed9db4948f6219ca1b9542 ]

If a key has an expiration time, then when that time passes, the key is
left around for a certain amount of time before being collected (5 mins by
default) so that EKEYEXPIRED can be returned instead of ENOKEY.  This is a
problem for DNS keys because we want to redo the DNS lookup immediately at
that point.

Fix this by allowing key types to be marked such that keys of that type
don't have this extra period, but are reclaimed as soon as they expire and
turn this on for dns_resolver-type keys.  To make this easier to handle,
key-&gt;expiry is changed to be permanent if TIME64_MAX rather than 0.

Furthermore, give such new-style negative DNS results a 1s default expiry
if no other expiry time is set rather than allowing it to stick around
indefinitely.  This shouldn't be zero as ls will follow a failing stat call
immediately with a second with AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW added.

[ Upstream commit 98fb9b9680c9f3895ced02d6a73e27f5d7b5892b ]

For vendor action frames, whether a protected one should be
used or not is clearly up to the individual vendor and frame,
so even though a protected dual is defined, it may not get
used. Thus, don't require protection for vendor action frames
when they're used in a connection.

Since we obviously don't process frames unknown to the kernel
in the kernel, it may makes sense to invert this list to have
all the ones the kernel processes and knows to be requiring
protection, but that'd be a different change.

[ Upstream commit 6376a824595607e99d032a39ba3394988b4fce96 ]

The cleanup tasks of kdamond threads including reset of corresponding
DAMON context's -&gt;kdamond field and decrease of global nr_running_ctxs
counter is supposed to be executed by kdamond_fn().  However, commit
0f91d13366a4 ("mm/damon: simplify stop mechanism") made neither
damon_start() nor damon_stop() ensure the corresponding kdamond has
started the execution of kdamond_fn().

As a result, the cleanup can be skipped if damon_stop() is called fast
enough after the previous damon_start().  Especially the skipped reset
of -&gt;kdamond could cause a use-after-free.

Fix it by waiting for start of kdamond_fn() execution from
damon_start().

<title>mm/damon/core: use number of passed access sampling as a timer</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 4472edf63d6630e6cf65e205b4fc8c3c94d0afe5 ]

DAMON sleeps for sampling interval after each sampling, and check if the
aggregation interval and the ops update interval have passed using
ktime_get_coarse_ts64() and baseline timestamps for the intervals.  That
design is for making the operations occur at deterministic timing
regardless of the time that spend for each work.  However, it turned out
it is not that useful, and incur not-that-intuitive results.

After all, timer functions, and especially sleep functions that DAMON uses
to wait for specific timing, are not necessarily strictly accurate.  It is
legal design, so no problem.  However, depending on such inaccuracies, the
nr_accesses can be larger than aggregation interval divided by sampling
interval.  For example, with the default setting (5 ms sampling interval
and 100 ms aggregation interval) we frequently show regions having
nr_accesses larger than 20.  Also, if the execution of a DAMOS scheme
takes a long time, next aggregation could happen before enough number of
samples are collected.  This is not what usual users would intuitively
expect.

Since access check sampling is the smallest unit work of DAMON, using the
number of passed sampling intervals as the DAMON-internal timer can easily
avoid these problems.  That is, convert aggregation and ops update
intervals to numbers of sampling intervals that need to be passed before
those operations be executed, count the number of passed sampling
intervals, and invoke the operations as soon as the specific amount of
sampling intervals passed.  Make the change.

Note that this could make a behavioral change to settings that using
intervals that not aligned by the sampling interval.  For example, if the
sampling interval is 5 ms and the aggregation interval is 12 ms, DAMON
effectively uses 15 ms as its aggregation interval, because it checks
whether the aggregation interval after sleeping the sampling interval.
This change will make DAMON to effectively use 10 ms as aggregation
interval, since it uses 'aggregation interval / sampling interval *
sampling interval' as the effective aggregation interval, and we don't use
floating point types.  Usual users would have used aligned intervals, so
this behavioral change is not expected to make any meaningful impact, so
just make this change.
