Merge tag 'gpio-updates-for-v6.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brgl/linux

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
 "The biggest feature is the locking overhaul. Up until now the
  synchronization in the GPIO subsystem was broken. There was a single
  spinlock "protecting" multiple data structures but doing it wrong (as
  evidenced by several places where it would be released when a sleeping
  function was called and then reacquired without checking the protected
  state).

  We tried to use an RW semaphore before but the main issue with GPIO is
  that we have drivers implementing the interfaces in both sleeping and
  non-sleeping ways as well as user-facing interfaces that can be called
  both from process as well as atomic contexts. Both ends converge in
  the same code paths that can use neither spinlocks nor mutexes. The
  only reasonable way out is to use SRCU and go mostly lockless. To that
  end: we add several SRCU structs in relevant places and use them to
  assure consistency between API calls together with atomic reads and
  writes of GPIO descriptor flags where it makes sense.

  This code has spent several weeks in next and has received several
  fixes in the first week or two after which it stabilized nicely. The
  GPIO subsystem is now resilient to providers being suddenly unbound.
  We managed to also remove the existing character device RW semaphore
  and the obsolete global spinlock.

  Other than the locking rework we have one new driver (for Chromebook
  EC), much appreciated documentation improvements from Kent and the
  regular driver improvements, DT-bindings updates and GPIOLIB core
  tweaks.

  Serialization rework:
   - use SRCU to serialize access to the global GPIO device list, to
     GPIO device structs themselves and to GPIO descriptors

9187210eee Networking changes for 6.9.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks:
 
    - Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps etc.)
      lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock.
 
    - Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock,
      allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core
      instead of once for each driver / callback.
 
    - Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface.
 
    - Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock.
 
    - Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary.
 
  - Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length
    and budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults.
 
  - Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global config
    variables fit in as few cache lines as possible.
 
  - Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug
    of ECMP imbalance problems.
 
  - Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP.
 
  - Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long
    enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec.
 
  - Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301.
 
  - Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding
    per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled
    control state machine.
 
  - Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple
    disjoint MCTP networks.
 
  - Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user
    space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing
    information while traversing veth links, bridge etc.
 
  - Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets.
 
  - Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray
    instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for
    use on fastpaths).
 
  - Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list.
 
  - Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations.
 
  - Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages.
 
 Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
 --------------------------------------------
 
  - Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and introduce
    VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by bpf_arena).
 
  - Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of
    ksft exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass).
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a daemon
    (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this table when
    the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as orphaned and
    a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain ownership.
 
  - Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set type.
    Compact a few related data structures.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem
    functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd
    through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted
    & unprivileged application.
 
  - Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between BPF
    program and user space where structures inside the arena can have
    pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work seamlessly
    for both user-space programs and BPF programs.
 
  - Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the verifier
    and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop assuming it's
    behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate it.
 
  - Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock
    critical sections.
 
  - Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps
    projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops type.
 
  - Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links.
 
  - Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC
    layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF firewalls.
 
  - Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which
    improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF objects.
 
 Wireless
 --------
 
  - Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support.
 
  - Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to support
    new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between drivers
    (especially those using phylib), and encourage more uniform behavior.
    Convert and clean up drivers.
 
  - Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from drivers.
 
  - IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions.
 
  - Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level,
    to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code.
 
  - Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields.
 
 Misc
 ----
 
  - Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests.
 
  - Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions,
    and packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies.
 
  - Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking.
 
  - Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message encapsulation
    or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of nested attributes
    depends on link type, classifier type or some other "class type".

Merge tag 'net-next-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core & protocols:

   - Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks:

      - Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps
        etc) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock.

      - Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock,
        allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead
        of once for each driver / callback.

      - Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface.

      - Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock.

      - Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary.

   - Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length and
     budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults.

   - Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global
     config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible.

   - Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of
     ECMP imbalance problems.

   - Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP.

   - Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long
     enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec.

   - Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301.

   - Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding
     per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled
     control state machine.

   - Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple
     disjoint MCTP networks.

   - Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user
     space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing
     information while traversing veth links, bridge etc.

   - Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets.

   - Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray
     instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use
     on fastpaths).

   - Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list.

   - Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations.

   - Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages.

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and
     introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by
     bpf_arena).

   - Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft
     exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass).

  Netfilter:

   - Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a
     daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this
     table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as
     orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain
     ownership.

   - Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set
     type. Compact a few related data structures.

  BPF:

   - Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem
     functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd
     through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted
     & unprivileged application.

   - Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between
     BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can
     have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work
     seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs.

   - Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the
     verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop
     assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate
     it.

   - Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock
     critical sections.

   - Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps
     projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops
     type.

   - Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links.

   - Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC
     layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF
     firewalls.

   - Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which
     improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF
     objects.

  Wireless:

   - Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support.

   - Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation.

  Driver API:

   - Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to
     support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between
     drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more
     uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers.

   - Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from
     drivers.

   - IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions.

   - Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level,
     to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code.

   - Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields.

  Misc:

   - Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests.

   - Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and
     packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies.

   - Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking.

   - Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message
     encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of
     nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some
     other "class type".

   - Ethernet high-speed NICs:

fs: FS_IOC_GETUUID
Add a new generic ioctls for querying the filesystem UUID.

These are lifted versions of the ext4 ioctls, with one change: we're not
using a flexible array member, because UUIDs will never be more than 16
bytes.

This patch adds a generic implementation of FS_IOC_GETFSUUID, which
reads from super_block->s_uuid. We're not lifting SETFSUUID from ext4 -
that can be done on offline filesystems by the people who need it,
trying to do it online is just asking for too much trouble.

b3decc5ce7 media: mc: Expand MUST_CONNECT flag to always require an enabled link
The MEDIA_PAD_FL_MUST_CONNECT flag indicates that the pad requires an
enabled link to stream, but only if it has any link at all. This makes
little sense, as if a pad is part of a pipeline, there are very few use
cases for an active link to be mandatory only if links exist at all. A
review of in-tree drivers confirms they all need an enabled link for
pads marked with the MEDIA_PAD_FL_MUST_CONNECT flag.

Expand the scope of the flag by rejecting pads that have no links at
all. This requires modifying the pipeline build code to add those pads
to the pipeline.

413971526a Documentation: userspace-api: Document perf ring buffer mechanism
In the Linux perf tool, the ring buffer serves not only as a medium for
transferring PMU event data but also as a vital mechanism for hardware
tracing using technologies like Intel PT and Arm CoreSight, etc.

Consequently, the ring buffer mechanism plays a crucial role by ensuring
high throughput for data transfer between the kernel and user space
while avoiding excessive overhead caused by the ring buffer itself.

This commit documents the ring buffer mechanism in detail.  It explains
the implementation of both the regular ring buffer and the AUX ring
buffer.  Additionally, it covers how these ring buffers support various
tracing modes and explains the synchronization with memory barriers.

42969726a1 Documentation: gpio: describe uAPI behaviour for unsupported config
The existing uAPI documentation does not adequately describe how the kernel
handles the case where the underlying hardware or driver does not support
the requested configuration.

Add a Configuration Support section describing that behaviour to both the
v1 and v2 documentation, and better document the errors returned where the
requested configuration cannot be supported.

689237ab37 fbdev/intelfb: Remove driver
From looking at the PCI IDs, every device supported by intelfb is
also supported by i915. Anyone still using intelfb should please
move on to i915, which does everything intelfb does but better.

Removing intelfb is motivated by the driver's excessive use of the
global screen_info state. The state belongs to architecture and
firmware code; device drivers should not attempt to access it. But
fixing intelfb would require a significant change in the driver's
probing logic. As intelfb has been obsolete for nearly 2 decades,
it is probably not worth the effort. Let's just remove it. Also
remove the related documentation.

3e7aeb78ab Networking changes for 6.8.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
    netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up
    build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes.
    This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections
    up to 40%.
 
  - Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the
    memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify
    bad PP users and possible leaks.
 
  - Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
    source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set.
    This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having
    many active connections to the same destination.
 
  - Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
    structs.
 
  - Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to
    allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF.
 
  - Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value
    to 128KB and namespecifying it.
 
  - Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
    RX performances with some common configurations.
 
  - Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time.
 
  - Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
    request the deletion of matching entries.
 
  - Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
    datapath first.
 
  - Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
    multicast-like behavior at the TC layer.
 
  - Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
    classifiers (RSVP and tcindex).
 
  - More data-race annotations.
 
  - Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets.
 
  - Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions.
 
  - Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
    a sub-network using a specific PAN ID.
 
  - Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support.
 
  - Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Tons of verifier improvements:
    - BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
      test suite
    - log improvements
    - complete precision tracking support for register spills
    - track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. It
      improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
      digit to 50-60% for some programs
    - support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
      commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience
    - support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
      transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
      like
    - several fixes
 
  - Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
    mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
    now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload.
 
  - Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
    kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
    BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
 
  - Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
    instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
    guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques.
 
  - Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs.
 
  - Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
    within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is identified
    by its id.
 
  - Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value field
    obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in sched_ext.
 
  - Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
    integration for the latter.
 
  - Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints.
 
  - Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project
    is developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter).
 
 Misc
 ----
 
  - Support for parellel TC self-tests execution.
 
  - Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage.
 
  - Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
    undocumented features.
 
  - Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to
    avoid random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent
    runs.
 
  - Add TCP-AO self-tests.
 
  - Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211.
 
  - Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec.
 
  - Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the
    tool can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families
    for which we have specs.
 
  - A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes.
 
  - Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
    full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
    in rust.
 
  - Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
    allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
    relationship.
 
  - Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
    application scale to thousands of instances.
 
  - Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
    each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host.
 
  - Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash.
 
  - ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
    platform.
 
  - Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
    netlink attribute.
 
  - Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void.
 
  - Add support for PHY package MMD read/write.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
  reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
  self-tests.

  Core & protocols:

   - Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
     netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
     time warnings to safeguard against future header changes

     This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
     to 40%

   - Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
     usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
     possible leaks

   - Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
     source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
     lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
     connections to the same destination

   - Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
     structs

   - Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
     arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF

   - Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
     128KB and namespecifying it

   - Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
     RX performances with some common configurations

   - Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time

   - Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
     request the deletion of matching entries

   - Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
     datapath first

   - Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
     multicast-like behavior at the TC layer

   - Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
     classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)

   - More data-race annotations

   - Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets

   - Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions

   - Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
     a sub-network using a specific PAN ID

   - Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support

   - Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type

  BPF:

   - Tons of verifier improvements:
       - BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
         test suite
       - log improvements
       - complete precision tracking support for register spills
       - track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
         This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
         single digit to 50-60% for some programs
       - support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
         commonly requested annotations for a better developer
         experience
       - support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
         transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
         like
       - several fixes

   - Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
     mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
     now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload

   - Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
     kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
     BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y

   - Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
     instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
     guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques

   - Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs

   - Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
     within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
     identified by its id

   - Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
     field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
     sched_ext

   - Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
     integration for the latter

   - Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints

   - Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
     developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)

  Misc:

   - Support for parellel TC self-tests execution

   - Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage

   - Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
     undocumented features

   - Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
     random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs

   - Add TCP-AO self-tests

   - Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211

   - Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec

   - Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
     can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
     which we have specs

   - A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes

   - Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool

  Driver API:

   - Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
     full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
     in rust

   - Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
     allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
     relationship

   - Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
     application scale to thousands of instances

   - Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
     each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host

   - Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash

   - ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
     platform

   - Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
     netlink attribute

Merge tag 'lsm-pr-20240105' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm

Pull security module updates from Paul Moore:

 - Add three new syscalls: lsm_list_modules(), lsm_get_self_attr(), and
   lsm_set_self_attr().

   The first syscall simply lists the LSMs enabled, while the second and
   third get and set the current process' LSM attributes. Yes, these
   syscalls may provide similar functionality to what can be found under
   /proc or /sys, but they were designed to support multiple,
   simultaneaous (stacked) LSMs from the start as opposed to the current
   /proc based solutions which were created at a time when only one LSM
   was allowed to be active at a given time.

   We have spent considerable time discussing ways to extend the
   existing /proc interfaces to support multiple, simultaneaous LSMs and
   even our best ideas have been far too ugly to support as a kernel
   API; after +20 years in the kernel, I felt the LSM layer had
   established itself enough to justify a handful of syscalls.

   Support amongst the individual LSM developers has been nearly
   unanimous, with a single objection coming from Tetsuo (TOMOYO) as he
   is worried that the LSM_ID_XXX token concept will make it more
   difficult for out-of-tree LSMs to survive. Several members of the LSM
   community have demonstrated the ability for out-of-tree LSMs to
   continue to exist by picking high/unused LSM_ID values as well as
   pointing out that many kernel APIs rely on integer identifiers, e.g.
   syscalls (!), but unfortunately Tetsuo's objections remain.

   My personal opinion is that while I have no interest in penalizing
   out-of-tree LSMs, I'm not going to penalize in-tree development to
   support out-of-tree development, and I view this as a necessary step
   forward to support the push for expanded LSM stacking and reduce our
   reliance on /proc and /sys which has occassionally been problematic
   for some container users. Finally, we have included the linux-api
   folks on (all?) recent revisions of the patchset and addressed all of
   their concerns.

 - Add a new security_file_ioctl_compat() LSM hook to handle the 32-bit
   ioctls on 64-bit systems problem.

   This patch includes support for all of the existing LSMs which
   provide ioctl hooks, although it turns out only SELinux actually
   cares about the individual ioctls. It is worth noting that while
   Casey (Smack) and Tetsuo (TOMOYO) did not give explicit ACKs to this
   patch, they did both indicate they are okay with the changes.

 - Fix a potential memory leak in the CALIPSO code when IPv6 is disabled
   at boot.

   While it's good that we are fixing this, I doubt this is something
   users are seeing in the wild as you need to both disable IPv6 and
   then attempt to configure IPv6 labeled networking via
   NetLabel/CALIPSO; that just doesn't make much sense.

   Normally this would go through netdev, but Jakub asked me to take
   this patch and of all the trees I maintain, the LSM tree seemed like
   the best fit.

 - Update the LSM MAINTAINERS entry with additional information about
   our process docs, patchwork, bug reporting, etc.

   I also noticed that the Lockdown LSM is missing a dedicated
   MAINTAINERS entry so I've added that to the pull request. I've been
   working with one of the major Lockdown authors/contributors to see if
   they are willing to step up and assume a Lockdown maintainer role;
   hopefully that will happen soon, but in the meantime I'll continue to
   look after it.

 - Add a handful of mailmap entries for Serge Hallyn and myself.

805d4311a5 media: v4l2-subdev: Add which field to struct v4l2_subdev_frame_interval
Due to a historical mishap, the v4l2_subdev_frame_interval structure
is the only part of the V4L2 subdev userspace API that doesn't contain a
'which' field. This prevents trying frame intervals using the subdev
'TRY' state mechanism.

Adding a 'which' field is simple as the structure has 8 reserved fields.
This would however break userspace as the field is currently set to 0,
corresponding to V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY, while the corresponding ioctls
currently operate on the 'ACTIVE' state. We thus need to add a new
subdev client cap, V4L2_SUBDEV_CLIENT_CAP_INTERVAL_USES_WHICH, to
indicate that userspace is aware of this new field.

All drivers that implement the subdev .get_frame_interval() and
.set_frame_interval() operations are updated to return -EINVAL when
operating on the TRY state, preserving the current behaviour.

While at it, fix a bad copy&paste in the documentation of the struct
v4l2_subdev_frame_interval_enum 'which' field.

905b9e4878 powerpc/pseries/papr-sysparm: Expose character device to user space
Until now the papr_sysparm APIs have been kernel-internal. But user
space needs access to PAPR system parameters too. The only method
available to user space today to get or set system parameters is using
sys_rtas() and /dev/mem to pass RTAS-addressable buffers between user
space and firmware. This is incompatible with lockdown and should be
deprecated.

So provide an alternative ABI to user space in the form of a
/dev/papr-sysparm character device with just two ioctl commands (get
and set). The data payloads involved are small enough to fit in the
ioctl argument buffer, making the code relatively simple.

Exposing the system parameters through sysfs has been considered but
it would be too awkward:

* The kernel currently does not have to contain an exhaustive list of
  defined system parameters. This is a convenient property to maintain
  because we don't have to update the kernel whenever a new parameter
  is added to PAPR. Exporting a named attribute in sysfs for each
  parameter would negate this.

* Some system parameters are text-based and some are not.

* Retrieval of at least one system parameter requires input data,
  which a simple read-oriented interface can't support.

514f6ff436 powerpc/pseries: Add papr-vpd character driver for VPD retrieval
PowerVM LPARs may retrieve Vital Product Data (VPD) for system
components using the ibm,get-vpd RTAS function.

We can expose this to user space with a /dev/papr-vpd character
device, where the programming model is:

  struct papr_location_code plc = { .str = "", }; /* obtain all VPD */
  int devfd = open("/dev/papr-vpd", O_RDONLY);
  int vpdfd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_VPD_CREATE_HANDLE, &plc);
  size_t size = lseek(vpdfd, 0, SEEK_END);
  char *buf = malloc(size);
  pread(devfd, buf, size, 0);

When a file descriptor is obtained from ioctl(PAPR_VPD_CREATE_HANDLE),
the file contains the result of a complete ibm,get-vpd sequence. The
file contents are immutable from the POV of user space. To get a new
view of the VPD, the client must create a new handle.

This design choice insulates user space from most of the complexities
that ibm,get-vpd brings:

* ibm,get-vpd must be called more than once to obtain complete
  results.

* Only one ibm,get-vpd call sequence should be in progress at a time;
  interleaved sequences will disrupt each other. Callers must have a
  protocol for serializing their use of the function.

* A call sequence in progress may receive a "VPD changed, try again"
  status, requiring the client to abandon the sequence and start
  over.

The memory required for the VPD buffers seems acceptable, around 20KB
for all VPD on one of my systems. And the value of the
/rtas/ibm,vpd-size DT property (the estimated maximum size of VPD) is
consistently 300KB across various systems I've checked.

I've implemented support for this new ABI in the rtas_get_vpd()
function in librtas, which the vpdupdate command currently uses to
populate its VPD database. I've verified that an unmodified vpdupdate
binary generates an identical database when using a librtas.so that
prefers the new ABI.

Along with the papr-vpd.h header exposed to user space, this
introduces a common papr-miscdev.h uapi header to share a base ioctl
ID with similar drivers to come.

50709576d8 Documentation: Destage TEE subsystem documentation
Add a separate documentation directory for TEE subsystem since it is a
standalone subsystem which already offers devices consumed by multiple
different subsystem drivers.

Split overall TEE subsystem documentation modularly where:
- The userspace API has been moved to Documentation/userspace-api/tee.rst.
- The driver API has been moved to Documentation/driver-api/tee.rst.
- The first module covers the overview of TEE subsystem.
- The further modules are dedicated to different TEE implementations like:
  - OP-TEE
  - AMD-TEE
  - and so on for future TEE implementation support.

0d9e32a807 media: uapi: Add controls for the THP7312 ISP
The THP7312 is an external ISP from THine. As such, it implements a
large number of parameters to control all aspects of the image
processing. Many of those controls are already standard in V4L2, but
some are fairly device-specific.

Reserve a range of 32 controls for the device. The driver will implement
4 device-specific controls to start with, define and document them. 28
additional device-specific controls should be enough for future
development.
