pldmfw: Select CRC32 when PLDMFW is selected

2025-06-27T10:09:01+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1224b218a4b9203656ecc932152f4c81a97b4fcc ] pldmfw calls crc32 code and depends on it being enabled, else there is a link error as follows. So PLDMFW should select CRC32. lib/pldmfw/pldmfw.o: In function `pldmfw_flash_image': pldmfw.c:(.text+0x70f): undefined reference to `crc32_le_base' This problem was introduced by commit b8265621f488 ("Add pldmfw library for PLDM firmware update"). It manifests as of commit d69ea414c9b4 ("ice: implement device flash update via devlink"). And is more likely to occur as of commit 9ad19171b6d6 ("lib/crc: remove unnecessary prompt for CONFIG_CRC32 and drop 'default y'"). Found by chance while exercising builds based on tinyconfig.

cpumask: limit FORCE_NR_CPUS to just the UP case

2024-07-25T07:50:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5d272dd1b3430bb31fa30042490fa081512424e4 ] Hardcoding the number of CPUs at compile time does improve code generation, but if you get it wrong the result will be confusion. We already limited this earlier to only "experts" (see commit fe5759d5bfda "cpumask: limit visibility of FORCE_NR_CPUS"), but with distro kernel configs often having EXPERT enabled, that turns out to not be much of a limit. To quote the philosophers at Disney: "Everyone can be an expert. And when everyone's an expert, no one will be". There's a runtime warning if you then set nr_cpus to anything but the forced number, but apparently that can be ignored too [1] and by then it's pretty much too late anyway. If we had some real way to limit this to "embedded only", maybe it would be worth it, but let's see if anybody even notices that the option is gone. We need to simplify kernel configuration anyway.

Kconfig: introduce HAS_IOPORT option and select it as necessary

2023-04-05T20:15:19+00:00

We introduce a new HAS_IOPORT Kconfig option to indicate support for I/O Port access. In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will disable compilation of the I/O accessor functions inb()/outb() and friends on architectures which can not meaningfully support legacy I/O spaces such as s390. The following architectures do not select HAS_IOPORT: * ARC * C-SKY * Hexagon * Nios II * OpenRISC * s390 * User-Mode Linux * Xtensa All other architectures select HAS_IOPORT at least conditionally. The "depends on" relations on HAS_IOPORT in drivers as well as ifdefs for HAS_IOPORT specific sections will be added in subsequent patches on a per subsystem basis.

Pull iommufd implementation from Jason Gunthorpe: "iommufd is the user API to control the IOMMU subsystem as it relates to managing IO page tables that point at user space memory. It takes over from drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c (aka the VFIO container) which is the VFIO specific interface for a similar idea. We see a broad need for extended features, some being highly IOMMU device specific: - Binding iommu_domain's to PASID/SSID - Userspace IO page tables, for ARM, x86 and S390 - Kernel bypassed invalidation of user page tables - Re-use of the KVM page table in the IOMMU - Dirty page tracking in the IOMMU - Runtime Increase/Decrease of IOPTE size - PRI support with faults resolved in userspace Many of these HW features exist to support VM use cases - for instance the combination of PASID, PRI and Userspace IO Page Tables allows an implementation of DMA Shared Virtual Addressing (vSVA) within a guest. Dirty tracking enables VM live migration with SRIOV devices and PASID support allow creating "scalable IOV" devices, among other things. As these features are fundamental to a VM platform they need to be uniformly exposed to all the driver families that do DMA into VMs, which is currently VFIO and VDPA" For more background, see the extended explanations in Jason's pull request: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y5dzTU8dlmXTbzoJ@nvidia.com/ * tag 'for-linus-iommufd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgg/iommufd: (62 commits) iommufd: Change the order of MSI setup iommufd: Improve a few unclear bits of code iommufd: Fix comment typos vfio: Move vfio group specific code into group.c vfio: Refactor dma APIs for emulated devices vfio: Wrap vfio group module init/clean code into helpers vfio: Refactor vfio_device open and close vfio: Make vfio_device_open() truly device specific vfio: Swap order of vfio_device_container_register() and open_device() vfio: Set device->group in helper function vfio: Create wrappers for group register/unregister vfio: Move the sanity check of the group to vfio_create_group() vfio: Simplify vfio_create_group() iommufd: Allow iommufd to supply /dev/vfio/vfio vfio: Make vfio_container optionally compiled vfio: Move container related MODULE_ALIAS statements into container.c vfio-iommufd: Support iommufd for emulated VFIO devices vfio-iommufd: Support iommufd for physical VFIO devices vfio-iommufd: Allow iommufd to be used in place of a container fd vfio: Use IOMMU_CAP_ENFORCE_CACHE_COHERENCY for vfio_file_enforced_coherent() ...

interval-tree: Add a utility to iterate over spans in an interval tree

2022-11-29T20:34:15+00:00

The span iterator travels over the indexes of the interval_tree, not the nodes, and classifies spans of indexes as either 'used' or 'hole'. 'used' spans are fully covered by nodes in the tree and 'hole' spans have no node intersecting the span. This is done greedily such that spans are maximally sized and every iteration step switches between used/hole. As an example a trivial allocator can be written as: for (interval_tree_span_iter_first(&span, itree, 0, ULONG_MAX); !interval_tree_span_iter_done(&span); interval_tree_span_iter_next(&span)) if (span.is_hole && span.last_hole - span.start_hole >= allocation_size - 1) return span.start_hole; With all the tricky boundary conditions handled by the library code. The following iommufd patches have several algorithms for its overlapping node interval trees that are significantly simplified with this kind of iteration primitive. As it seems generally useful, put it into lib/.
