Merge tag 'i3c/for-7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/i3c/linuxgrafted
Pull I3C updates from Alexandre Belloni: "A new driver this cycle, for the AMD AXI I3C controller. There are also new features such as IBI wakeup support, SETAASA device discovery and ACPI support for the the DAA methods, meaning we can now communicate with the SPD devices on DDR5 modules. New driver: - AMD AXI I3C master controller Subsystem: - I3C Common Command Code (CCC) handling improvements, especially around GET CCCs - SETAASA device discovery support - ACPI support for all existing DAA methods like SETDASA, SETNEWDA as well as I2C devices on I3C bus - IBI-based wakeup support Drivers: - dw: SETAASA support - mipi-i3c-hci: advertise IBI wakeup capability, AMD_PT I3C controller support, PIO queue management support for HCI v1.2 - renesas: improve suspend to RAM support, add runtime PM support" * tag 'i3c/for-7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/i3c/linux: (70 commits) i3c: dw: reduce do_daa time if there's no client i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Add support for AMD_PT I3C controller i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Add PIO queue management support for HCI v1.2 i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Fix missing STAT_IBI_STATUS_THLD in PIO mode i3c: dw: rename "pclk" to "apb" to match dt-binding i3c: dw: make struct dw_i3c_cmd smaller i3c: dw: use COMMAND_PORT_TRANSFER_ARG instead of hardcoding i3c: renesas: Don't register devices when ENTDAA times out i3c: master: dw-i3c-master: fix OD timing for first broadcast i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Advertise IBI wakeup capability i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Factor out i3c_hci_sysdev() i3c: mipi-i3c-hci-pci: Propagate I3C wakeup requirements to PCI i3c: master: Reject IBI requests from non-IBI-capable devices i3c: master: Add helper to query bus wakeup requirements i3c: master: Report wakeup events for IBIs i3c: master: Support IBI-based wakeup capability i3c: master: Fix potential UAF in i3c_device_match() i3c: master: Fix potential UAF in i3c_device_uevent() i3c: Make dev->desc locking assumptions explicit i3c: master: Fix use-after-free of master->this ...

+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch
+Date: Nov 2014
+KernelVersion: 3.19.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Interface for kernel live patching
+
+ The /sys/kernel/livepatch directory contains subdirectories for
+ each loaded live patch module.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>
+Date: Nov 2014
+KernelVersion: 3.19.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ The patch directory contains subdirectories for each kernel
+ object (vmlinux or a module) in which it patched functions.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/enabled
+Date: Nov 2014
+KernelVersion: 3.19.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ A writable attribute that indicates whether the patched
+ code is currently applied. Writing 0 will disable the patch
+ while writing 1 will re-enable the patch.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/transition
+Date: Feb 2017
+KernelVersion: 4.12.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ An attribute which indicates whether the patch is currently in
+ transition.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/force
+Date: Nov 2017
+KernelVersion: 4.15.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ A writable attribute that allows administrator to affect the
+ course of an existing transition. Writing 1 clears
+ TIF_PATCH_PENDING flag of all tasks and thus forces the tasks to
+ the patched or unpatched state. Administrator should not
+ use this feature without a clearance from a patch
+ distributor. Removal (rmmod) of patch modules is permanently
+ disabled when the feature is used. See
+ Documentation/livepatch/livepatch.rst for more information.

+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/replace
+Date: Jun 2024
+KernelVersion: 6.11.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ An attribute which indicates whether the patch supports
+ atomic-replace.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/stack_order
+Date: Jan 2025
+KernelVersion: 6.14.0
+Description:
+ This attribute specifies the sequence in which live patch modules
+ are applied to the system. If multiple live patches modify the same
+ function, the implementation with the biggest 'stack_order' number
+ is used, unless a transition is currently in progress.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/<object>
+Date: Nov 2014
+KernelVersion: 3.19.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ The object directory contains subdirectories for each function
+ that is patched within the object.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/<object>/patched
+Date: August 2022
+KernelVersion: 6.1.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ An attribute which indicates whether the object is currently
+ patched.
+
+What: /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/<object>/<function,sympos>
+Date: Nov 2014
+KernelVersion: 3.19.0
+Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ The function directory contains attributes regarding the
+ properties and state of the patched function.
+
+ The directory name contains the patched function name and a
+ sympos number corresponding to the nth occurrence of the symbol
+ name in kallsyms for the patched object.
+
+ There are currently no such attributes.
