Char/Misc driver patches for 5.12-rc1
Here is the large set of char/misc/whatever driver subsystem updates for
5.12-rc1. Over time it seems like this tree is collecting more and more
tiny driver subsystems in one place, making it easier for those
maintainers, which is why this is getting larger.
Included in here are:
- coresight driver updates
- habannalabs driver updates
- virtual acrn driver addition (proper acks from the x86
maintainers)
- broadcom misc driver addition
- speakup driver updates
- soundwire driver updates
- fpga driver updates
- amba driver updates
- mei driver updates
- vfio driver updates
- greybus driver updates
- nvmeem driver updates
- phy driver updates
- mhi driver updates
- interconnect driver udpates
- fsl-mc bus driver updates
- random driver fix
- some small misc driver updates (rtsx, pvpanic, etc.)
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with the only reported
issue being a merge conflict in include/linux/mod_devicetable.h that you
will hit in your tree due to the dfl_device_id addition from the fpga
subsystem in here. The resolution should be simple.

cxl for 5.12
Introduce an initial driver for CXL 2.0 Type-3 Memory Devices. CXL is Compute Express Link which released the 2.0 specification in November. The Linux relevant changes in CXL 2.0 are support for an OS to dynamically assign address space to memory devices, support for switches, persistent memory, and hotplug. A Type-3 Memory Device is a PCI enumerated device presenting the CXL Memory Device Class Code and implementing the CXL.mem protocol. CXL.mem allows device to advertise CPU and I/O coherent memory to the system, i.e. typical "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory" in Linux /proc/iomem terms. In addition to the CXL.mem fast path there is an administrative command hardware mailbox interface for maintenance and provisioning. It is this command interface that is the focus of the initial driver. With this driver a CXL device that is mapped by the BIOS can be administered by Linux. Linux support for CXL PMEM and dynamic CXL address space management are to be implemented post v5.12. |

cxl/mem: Add basic IOCTL interface
Add a straightforward IOCTL that provides a mechanism for userspace to query the supported memory device commands. CXL commands as they appear to userspace are described as part of the UAPI kerneldoc. The command list returned via this IOCTL will contain the full set of commands that the driver supports, however, some of those commands may not be available for use by userspace. Memory device commands first appear in the CXL 2.0 specification. They are submitted through a mailbox mechanism specified in the CXL 2.0 specification. The send command allows userspace to issue mailbox commands directly to the hardware. The list of available commands to send are the output of the query command. The driver verifies basic properties of the command and possibly inspect the input (or output) payload to determine whether or not the command is allowed (or might taint the kernel).

virt: acrn: Introduce VM management interfaces
The VM management interfaces expose several VM operations to ACRN userspace via ioctls. For example, creating VM, starting VM, destroying VM and so on. The ACRN Hypervisor needs to exchange data with the ACRN userspace during the VM operations. HSM provides VM operation ioctls to the ACRN userspace and communicates with the ACRN Hypervisor for VM operations via hypercalls. HSM maintains a list of User VM. Each User VM will be bound to an existing file descriptor of /dev/acrn_hsm. The User VM will be destroyed when the file descriptor is closed.

bus: fsl-mc: add fsl-mc userspace support
Adding userspace support for the MC (Management Complex) means exporting an ioctl capable device file representing the root resource container. This new functionality in the fsl-mc bus driver intends to provide userspace applications an interface to interact with the MC firmware. Commands that are composed in userspace are sent to the MC firmware through the FSL_MC_SEND_MC_COMMAND ioctl. By default the implicit MC I/O portal is used for this operation, but if the implicit one is busy, a dynamic portal is allocated and then freed upon execution. The command received through the ioctl interface is checked against a known whitelist of accepted MC commands. Commands that attempt a change in hardware configuration will need CAP_NET_ADMIN, while commands used in debugging do not need it.

scsi: Drop gdth driver
The gdth driver refers to a SCSI parallel, PCI-only HBA RAID adapter which was manufactured by the now-defunct ICP Vortex company, later acquired by Adaptec and superseded by the aacraid series of controllers. The driver itself would require a major overhaul before any modifications can be attempted, but seeing that it's unlikely to have any users left it should rather be removed completely.

platform/surface: Add Surface Aggregator user-space interface
Add a misc-device providing user-space access to the Surface Aggregator EC, mainly intended for debugging, testing, and reverse-engineering. This interface gives user-space applications the ability to send requests to the EC and receive the corresponding responses. The device-file is managed by a pseudo platform-device and corresponding driver to avoid dependence on the dedicated bus, allowing it to be loaded in a minimal configuration. A python library and scripts to access this device can be found at [1].

"Not a major amount of change, the i915 trees got split into display
and gt trees to better facilitate higher level review, and there's a
major refactoring of i915 GEM locking to use more core kernel concepts
(like ww-mutexes). msm gets per-process pagetables, older AMD SI cards
get DC support, nouveau got a bump in displayport support with common
code extraction from i915.
Outside of drm this contains a couple of patches for hexint

you should also get via it's regular path.

nitro_enclaves: Add ioctl interface definition
The Nitro Enclaves driver handles the enclave lifetime management. This includes enclave creation, termination and setting up its resources such as memory and CPU. An enclave runs alongside the VM that spawned it. It is abstracted as a process running in the VM that launched it. The process interacts with the NE driver, that exposes an ioctl interface for creating an enclave and setting up its resources.

remoteproc: Add remoteproc character device interface
Add the character device interface into remoteproc framework. This interface can be used in order to boot/shutdown remote subsystems and provides a basic ioctl based interface to implement supplementary functionality. An ioctl call is implemented to enable the shutdown on release feature which will allow remote processors to be shutdown when the controlling userspace application crashes or hangs.

Merge tag 'notifications-20200601' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs
Pull notification queue from David Howells:
"This adds a general notification queue concept and adds an event
source for keys/keyrings, such as linking and unlinking keys and
changing their attributes.
Thanks to Debarshi Ray, we do have a pull request to use this to fix a
problem with gnome-online-accounts - as mentioned last time:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-online-accounts/merge_requests/47
Without this, g-o-a has to constantly poll a keyring-based kerberos
cache to find out if kinit has changed anything.
[ There are other notification pending: mount/sb fsinfo notifications
for libmount that Karel Zak and Ian Kent have been working on, and
Christian Brauner would like to use them in lxc, but let's see how
this one works first ]
LSM hooks are included:
- A set of hooks are provided that allow an LSM to rule on whether or
not a watch may be set. Each of these hooks takes a different
"watched object" parameter, so they're not really shareable. The
LSM should use current's credentials. [Wanted by SELinux & Smack]
- A hook is provided to allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a
particular message may be posted to a particular queue. This is
given the credentials from the event generator (which may be the
system) and the watch setter. [Wanted by Smack]
I've provided SELinux and Smack with implementations of some of these
hooks.
WHY
===
Key/keyring notifications are desirable because if you have your
kerberos tickets in a file/directory, your Gnome desktop will monitor
that using something like fanotify and tell you if your credentials
cache changes.
However, we also have the ability to cache your kerberos tickets in
the session, user or persistent keyring so that it isn't left around
on disk across a reboot or logout. Keyrings, however, cannot currently
be monitored asynchronously, so the desktop has to poll for it - not
so good on a laptop. This facility will allow the desktop to avoid the
need to poll.
DESIGN DECISIONS
================
- The notification queue is built on top of a standard pipe. Messages
are effectively spliced in. The pipe is opened with a special flag:
pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE);
The special flag has the same value as O_EXCL (which doesn't seem
like it will ever be applicable in this context)[?]. It is given up
front to make it a lot easier to prohibit splice&co from accessing
the pipe.
[?] Should this be done some other way? I'd rather not use up a new
O_* flag if I can avoid it - should I add a pipe3() system call
instead?
The pipe is then configured::
ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth);
ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter);
Messages are then read out of the pipe using read().
- It should be possible to allow write() to insert data into the
notification pipes too, but this is currently disabled as the
kernel has to be able to insert messages into the pipe *without*
holding pipe->mutex and the code to make this work needs careful
auditing.
- sendfile(), splice() and vmsplice() are disabled on notification
pipes because of the pipe->mutex issue and also because they
sometimes want to revert what they just did - but one or more
notification messages might've been interleaved in the ring.
- The kernel inserts messages with the wait queue spinlock held. This
means that pipe_read() and pipe_write() have to take the spinlock
to update the queue pointers.
- Records in the buffer are binary, typed and have a length so that
they can be of varying size.
This allows multiple heterogeneous sources to share a common
buffer; there are 16 million types available, of which I've used
just a few, so there is scope for others to be used. Tags may be
specified when a watchpoint is created to help distinguish the
sources.
- Records are filterable as types have up to 256 subtypes that can be
individually filtered. Other filtration is also available.
- Notification pipes don't interfere with each other; each may be
bound to a different set of watches. Any particular notification
will be copied to all the queues that are currently watching for it
- and only those that are watching for it.
- When recording a notification, the kernel will not sleep, but will
rather mark a queue as having lost a message if there's
insufficient space. read() will fabricate a loss notification
message at an appropriate point later.
- The notification pipe is created and then watchpoints are attached
to it, using one of:
keyctl_watch_key(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, fds[1], 0x01);
watch_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/", 0, fd, 0x02);
watch_sb(AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", 0, fd, 0x03);
where in both cases, fd indicates the queue and the number after is
a tag between 0 and 255.
- Watches are removed if either the notification pipe is destroyed or
the watched object is destroyed. In the latter case, a message will
be generated indicating the enforced watch removal.
Things I want to avoid:
- Introducing features that make the core VFS dependent on the
network stack or networking namespaces (ie. usage of netlink).
- Dumping all this stuff into dmesg and having a daemon that sits
there parsing the output and distributing it as this then puts the
responsibility for security into userspace and makes handling
namespaces tricky. Further, dmesg might not exist or might be
inaccessible inside a container.
- Letting users see events they shouldn't be able to see.
TESTING AND MANPAGES
====================
- The keyutils tree has a pipe-watch branch that has keyctl commands
for making use of notifications. Proposed manual pages can also be
found on this branch, though a couple of them really need to go to
the main manpages repository instead.
If the kernel supports the watching of keys, then running "make
test" on that branch will cause the testing infrastructure to spawn
a monitoring process on the side that monitors a notifications pipe
for all the key/keyring changes induced by the tests and they'll
all be checked off to make sure they happened.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/log/?h=pipe-watch
- A test program is provided (samples/watch_queue/watch_test) that
can be used to monitor for keyrings, mount and superblock events.
Information on the notifications is simply logged to stdout"

pipe: Add general notification queue support
Make it possible to have a general notification queue built on top of a
standard pipe. Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read
out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for
notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This
means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe
buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect.
The way the notification queue is used is:
(1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the
number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can
only be set once):
pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE);
ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth);
(2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data
from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the
buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across
buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE.
Notification messages include a length in the header so that the
caller can split them up.
Each message has a header that describes it:
struct watch_notification {
__u32 type:24;
__u32 subtype:8;
__u32 info;
};
The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events,
keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event
type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field
indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to
a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags.
Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be
attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes.
Messages may not be padded or aligned, so there is no guarantee, for
example, that the notification type will be on a 4-byte bounary.

- Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last. Now we just need
to get maintainers to fill in the profiles...
- A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of

- The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build.
Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to
