12 daysi2c: xiic: preserve PEC byte length in SMBus block read setupAbdurrahman Hussain
xiic_smbus_block_read_setup() recalculates i2c->rx_msg->len based on the length byte returned by the device, but historically clobbered the PEC byte expectation the SMBus core had baked into msg->len. That dropped the PEC byte from the caller's buffer on the normal and chunked receive-fifo branches. Compute pec_len up-front as (i2c->rx_msg->len - 1) -- the trailing bytes the caller has already accounted for beyond the length byte, 1 when the SMBus core enabled PEC, and possibly more for an I2C_M_RECV_LEN request coming from i2c-dev -- and add it to the new length in every branch: - chunked: the trailing bytes do not fit in the Rx FIFO, so drain in chunks. The guard becomes (rxmsg_len + pec_len > IIC_RX_FIFO_DEPTH) rather than rxmsg_len alone, both because pec_len bytes also have to fit and because it is what bounds rfd_set in the else branch below to the 4 bits of XIIC_RFD_REG_OFFSET. - padded (1 + rxmsg_len + pec_len < SMBUS_BLOCK_READ_MIN_LEN): the hardware needs at least 3 bytes on the bus to exit the read cleanly (the second byte is already being clocked in by the time the ISR reads the length byte and is too late to NACK), so we still pad rx_msg->len up to SMBUS_BLOCK_READ_MIN_LEN. The dummy trailing byte that gets drained must then be trimmed off before handing the message back to the SMBus core; otherwise i2c_smbus_check_pec() reads buf[len-1] (= dummy) instead of the real PEC byte at buf[1] and rejects every clean zero-length block read with -EBADMSG. Record the true valid byte count in a new field i2c->smbus_actual_len and trim rx_msg->len down to it in xiic_smbus_trim_len(), called from both completion sites that clear rx_msg: xiic_process()'s RX_FULL branch and xiic_recv_atomic(), which drains the FIFO with interrupts off. smbus_actual_len is per-receive state, so xiic_start_recv() clears it before every receive. Only the padded branch ever sets it, and a block read aborted by arbitration loss or a TX error never reaches the completion site, so without that clear a stale value would trim the length of an unrelated later read. The condition is expressed in total bytes rather than the old "(rxmsg_len == 1) || (rxmsg_len == 0)" so that a request carrying more than one trailing byte does not get padded: padding records a length the drain never reaches, which would hand the caller a byte that was never received. - normal: all trailing bytes fit in one FIFO fill. rfd_set gains pec_len for the same reason the length does. Because the padded branch above has already taken every case with fewer than SMBUS_BLOCK_READ_MIN_LEN total bytes, rxmsg_len + pec_len is at least 2 here and the subtraction cannot underflow the u8.

13 daysEDAC/versalnet: Drop remote processor handle refcount on driver removalGuangshuo Li
mc_probe() acquires a reference to the remote processor with rproc_get_by_phandle(), but mc_remove() does not release the reference. rproc_shutdown() only balances the power reference acquired by rproc_boot(); it does not drop the device reference acquired by rproc_get_by_phandle(). As a result, successful driver removal leaves the remoteproc reference unbalanced. Call rproc_put() during removal to release the reference acquired in mc_probe().

13 daysworkqueue: Fix NULL current_pwq deref in flush dependency checkPavankumar Kondeti
check_flush_dependency() uses current_wq_worker() to determine whether the caller is a workqueue worker and then dereferences worker->current_pwq to test whether the current workqueue is WQ_MEM_RECLAIM. current_wq_worker() only means that %current has PF_WQ_WORKER set. A kworker can reach check_flush_dependency() while it is not executing a work item. One such path is worker_thread() acting as the pool manager, where create_worker() does GFP_KERNEL allocation and the allocation path invokes the OOM notifier. In that state worker->current_pwq is NULL because current_pwq is set only by process_one_work() and cleared again after the work function returns.

14 dayssched_ext: Add a size argument to scx_bpf_cid_topo() so struct scx_cid_topo ↵Tejun Heo
can grow scx_bpf_cid_topo() copies struct scx_cid_topo into a buffer the BPF program sized from its own vmlinux.h while the verifier sizes the write from the running kernel's BTF. The struct may grow and each growth then breaks every scheduler built against the older layout, rejected at load or written past its buffer. This is the usual hole for a struct handed to BPF, closed elsewhere with a size argument, and it was missed here. Take the buffer size, copy the smaller of it and the kernel's struct and set the rest to -1. Accesses to the copy are CO-RE relocated, so the struct can grow by appending fields, which its comment now states. The kfunc changes in place: the cid interface is still being finalized and no released scheduler uses the current form.

Under altr_portb_setup() and socfpga_init_sdmmc_ecc(), of_find_compatible_node() was being used to look up the sdmmc-ecc node. This node wasn't being dropped using of_node_put(). altr_portb_setup() did not drop its reference under its success path or on any error path. socfpga_init_sdmmc_ecc() did an early return thereby skipping the common exit label and thus leaking the reference.

14 dayscgroup/cpuset: Return PERR_NOCPUS in remote_partition_enable() on ↵Hui Peng
subpartitions_cpus conflict When a remote partition is created underneath an existing local partition via a non-partition (PRS_MEMBER) intermediate cgroup, update_prstate() sees parent->partition_root_state == PRS_MEMBER and calls remote_partition_enable(). Commit 86888c7bd117 ("cgroup/cpuset: Add warnings to catch inconsistency in exclusive CPUs") replaced the cpumask_intersects(tmp->new_cpus, subpartitions_cpus) error check in remote_partition_enable() with WARN_ON_ONCE(). As a result, remote_partition_enable() emits a warning and proceeds to enable the remote partition on CPUs that are already owned by the ancestor local partition in subpartitions_cpus. This can be reproduced on Linux 7.3.0-rc3 with: mkdir -p /tmp/cg1 mount -t cgroup2 none /tmp/cg1 echo "+cpuset" > /tmp/cg1/cgroup.subtree_control mkdir /tmp/cg1/A echo 1 > /tmp/cg1/A/cpuset.cpus echo 1 > /tmp/cg1/A/cpuset.cpus.exclusive echo root > /tmp/cg1/A/cpuset.cpus.partition echo "+cpuset" > /tmp/cg1/A/cgroup.subtree_control mkdir /tmp/cg1/A/B echo 1 > /tmp/cg1/A/B/cpuset.cpus echo 1 > /tmp/cg1/A/B/cpuset.cpus.exclusive echo "+cpuset" > /tmp/cg1/A/B/cgroup.subtree_control mkdir /tmp/cg1/A/B/D echo 1 > /tmp/cg1/A/B/D/cpuset.cpus echo 1 > /tmp/cg1/A/B/D/cpuset.cpus.exclusive echo root > /tmp/cg1/A/B/D/cpuset.cpus.partition which triggers: WARNING: kernel/cgroup/cpuset.c:1594 at remote_partition_enable+0x1c1/0x300 and leaves both /tmp/cg1/A and /tmp/cg1/A/B/D as active root partitions claiming exclusive CPU 1.

2026-09-26KVM: SEV: Do cache maintenance on the source VM during intra-host migrationgraftedSean Christopherson
Manually perform cache maintenance on the source VM during intra-host migration to ensure no stale data is left in CPU caches after the VM is destroyed. Because the source VM is "converted" to a non-SEV VM, KVM's memory reclaim flows won't trigger cache maintenance, e.g. when all guest memory is reclaimed in response to detaching from the mmu_notifier. Note, relying on the destination VM to do cache maintenance isn't an option as KVM doesn't require identical guest memory configurations, i.e. the source VM may have access to memory that the destination VM does not. Enforcing equivalent memory configurations is infeasible, as it would require a *deep* comparison of memslots, e.g. to verify that not only are the memslot identical, but what the memslots point at is also identical.

2026-09-25EDAC/altera: Fix use-after-free in error pathsDinh Nguyen
In both altr_edac_a10_device_add() and altr_portb_setup(), the error path freed the dci structure before releasing the devres group. Since the managed single and double bit IRQ handlers use altdev(dci->pvt_info) as their data, an IRQ firing between freeing dci and unregistering the IRQs could dereference the freed memory. Release the devres group first so the managed IRQs are unregistered before the dci structure is freed.

2026-09-25kprobes: Fix permanent hang when flushing the kprobe optimizerAndrea Parri
Writing 0 to /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization while a kprobe is jump-optimized never returns. The writer sleeps in D state forever with kprobe_sysctl_mutex held, so any later read or write of that sysctl hangs as well. For example, with vfs_read+9 as an optimizable address in this build: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # echo 'p:myprobe vfs_read+9' >> kprobe_events # echo 1 > events/kprobes/myprobe/enable # # wait until /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/list shows [OPTIMIZED] # echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization INFO: task sh:246 blocked for more than 10 seconds.

INFO: task cat:265 is blocked on a mutex likely owned by task sh:246. wait_for_kprobe_optimizer_locked() reinitializes optimizer_completion, asks the optimizer thread to flush and sleeps in wait_for_completion(). The thread drains the (un)optimizing lists, but calls complete() only if completion_done() is true, i.e. if the completion is already done, which never happens while someone waits. disarm_all_kprobes() and kprobe_trace_self_tests_init() wait the same way. Calling complete() unconditionally would not be enough: the waiter drops kprobe_mutex while it sleeps, and nothing else serializes the sysctl handler against the debugfs "enabled" file. A second flusher that still finds the lists non-empty, e.g. because a disabled probe is queued for unoptimizing, reinitializes the completion under the first: sysctl write debugfs "enabled" write unoptimize_all_kprobes() wait_for_kprobe_optimizer_locked() init_completion(c) mutex_unlock(&kprobe_mutex) wait_for_completion(c) disarm_all_kprobes() wait_for_kprobe_optimizer_locked() init_completion(c) // c->wait is reset, the first // waiter is off the queue mutex_unlock(&kprobe_mutex) wait_for_completion(c) kprobe_optimizer() complete(c) // wakes the debugfs writer only where c is &optimizer_completion. Lining up the two writes during an optimizer pass loses the sysctl writer this way. Replace the completion with a counter of optimizer passes, bumped at the end of each pass and signalled with wake_up_var_locked(), both under kprobe_mutex. A flusher samples the count and waits with wait_var_event_mutex(), which drops kprobe_mutex only while sleeping, so a new count means a whole pass ran in the meantime. Nothing is reinitialized, so several flushers can sleep in the wait at once.

2026-09-24i2c: qcom-geni: Fix hardcoded clock index in SE_GENI_CLK_SELViken Dadhaniya
qcom_geni_i2c_conf() writes a hardcoded 0 to SE_GENI_CLK_SEL, which selects an index from the hardware clock performance table. This always picks the first table entry regardless of the actual source clock configuration. On platforms where the matching entry is not at index 0, the wrong source clock divider is active and the I2C bus runs at an incorrect frequency. Use geni_se_clk_freq_match() in geni_i2c_clk_map_idx() to find the performance table index for the source clock (32 MHz or 19.2 MHz). Store the resolved index in a new clk_idx field in geni_i2c_dev and write it to SE_GENI_CLK_SEL instead of the hardcoded 0.

2026-09-24cgroup/pids: Restore pids.events notifications in local modeGuopeng Zhang
A fork rejected by the pids controller increments the counter reported by pids.events. When local event accounting is selected, however, pids_event() returns after notifying only events_local_file, leaving pids.events pollers asleep. On legacy hierarchies, pids.events.local does not exist. With pids_localevents, pids.events reports the same local counter. In both cases, pids.events changes without generating a notification. This can be reproduced with a pids_localevents mount: mkdir /tmp/test mount -t cgroup2 -o pids_localevents none /tmp/test mkdir /tmp/test/t echo 1 > /tmp/test/t/pids.max cat /tmp/test/t/pids.events # max 0 timeout 3 inotifywait -e modify /tmp/test/t/pids.events & sh -c 'echo $$ > /tmp/test/t/cgroup.procs; (true &)' 2>/dev/null wait cat /tmp/test/t/pids.events # max 1 Without this patch, inotifywait times out without reporting an event.

2026-09-24arm64: topology: fix arch_freq_get_on_cpu() overflow above 4.19 GHzOleg Keri
arch_freq_get_on_cpu() computes the product of the frequency scale and the reference frequency as a u64, but assigns it to an unsigned int before shifting it back down: freq = scale * arch_scale_freq_ref(cpu); freq >>= SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT; The product is truncated to 32 bits before the shift, so the result wraps once arch_scale_freq_ref() exceeds 2^32 / SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE, i.e. 4194304 kHz. On a Snapdragon X2 Elite (Glymur) laptop, whose boost OPP is 4723200 kHz, cpuinfo_avg_freq reports 524283 kHz instead of ~4723200 kHz while the CPU demonstrably runs at the boost frequency: a fixed workload completes in 1.72 s at the 4723200 kHz OPP versus 2.01 s at 4032000 kHz, matching the 1.171 frequency ratio. Shift the u64 product and narrow only at the return.

2026-09-24arm64: mm: Fix the break-before-make flush range for erratum 2645198Andrea Parri
modify_prot_start_ptes() performs the break-before-make TLB invalidation required by erratum 2645198 with __flush_tlb_range(), whose third argument is the end address of the range. It passes nr * PAGE_SIZE instead of addr + nr * PAGE_SIZE, so __do_flush_tlb_range() computes the page count as (nr * PAGE_SIZE - addr) >> PAGE_SHIFT. For addr > nr * PAGE_SIZE that subtraction underflows, the page count exceeds the batching limit and the flush degenerates to flush_tlb_mm(), so a single-page mprotect broadcasts an ASID-wide invalidation and a full-range mmu notifier call. For addr <= nr * PAGE_SIZE only [addr, nr * PAGE_SIZE) is invalidated, and when the cleared batch starts below nr * PAGE_SIZE the tail is left in the TLB. The workaround then no longer covers the whole batch, and for addr == nr * PAGE_SIZE the flush is empty. On affected Cortex-A715 CPUs, this can corrupt ESR_ELx and FAR_ELx on the next instruction abort caused by a permission fault. Pass addr + nr * PAGE_SIZE as the end address.

2026-09-24sched/core: Account PSI IRQ time to the execution context, not the ↵Zhan Xusheng
scheduling context psi_account_irqtime() has two callers which share rq->psi_irq_time, and they disagree about the context: __schedule() passes the outgoing rq->curr, sched_tick() passes rq->donor. Under proxy execution the donor is blocked on a mutex while rq->curr burns the CPU. The tick charges PSI_IRQ_FULL to the donor's cgroup and advances the timestamp, so the call from __schedule() then finds delta <= 0 and charges nothing. The delta is not counted twice, it lands on the wrong cgroup. Pass rq->curr, which is what the call read before commit af0c8b2bf67b ("sched: Split scheduler and execution contexts") renamed 'curr' to 'donor' across sched_tick(). Without CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC the two rq members are a union, so this only changes anything where that option is set, and it depends on EXPERT.

2026-09-23ata: libata-scsi: bound the ATA passthru sense descriptor writesMatthias Goergens
When an ATA PASS-THROUGH command to an ATAPI device fails, the sense buffer holds the device's REQUEST SENSE reply, and ata_scsi_set_passthru_sense_fields() trusts its additional length byte, sb[7], when adding the ATA Status Return descriptor. A faulty or malicious device can use that to make the kernel read and write past the 96-byte buffer in three ways: - scsi_sense_desc_find() is passed sb[7] + 8 as the buffer length, so its clamp against sb[7] does nothing and the walk runs off the end. - A type-9 descriptor found near the end is filled in unchecked. - A new descriptor at sb[8 + len] needs len + 22 bytes, not len + 14, so len 75..82 writes up to 8 bytes past the end. Reproduced with KASAN under qemu, with the emulated ATAPI REQUEST SENSE reply patched: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in scsi_sense_desc_find+0x1a5/0x210 BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ata_scsi_qc_complete+0x1a15/0x1a50 Both are gone with this patch, and a valid descriptor is still filled in.

2026-09-23x86/mce: Fix hardware debug register corruption on task migrationMasami Hiramatsu (Google)
In exc_machine_check_user(), local_db_save() and local_db_restore() are invoked in the outer entry stubs (DEFINE_IDTENTRY_MCE_USER, DEFINE_FREDENTRY_MCE, and DEFINE_IDTENTRY_RAW), surrounding exc_machine_check_user(). However, exc_machine_check_user() calls irqentry_exit_to_user_mode(), which handles pending thread work and may schedule() if TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set. If the task migrates to another CPU during schedule(), local_db_restore() runs on the new CPU with the dr7 state saved from the old CPU. This corrupts the new CPU's DR7 hardware debug register and leaves the old CPU's DR7 disabled. In short, local_db_save() and local_db_restore() pair must be run on the same CPU. To fix this, move local_db_save() and local_db_restore() inside exc_machine_check_user() and exc_machine_check_kernel(). In exc_machine_check_user(), DR7 is saved and restored strictly around do_machine_check() to avoid schedule() during migration. In exc_machine_check_kernel(), local_db_save() is called at the entry point to prevent early memory accesses from triggering nested #DB exceptions, and restored on all exits.

2026-09-23sched_ext: Count SCX_EV_SUB_BYPASS_DISPATCH in the dispatch fallbackLiang Luo
When a descendant scheduler enters bypass mode, its tasks are parked in the bypass DSQs of the nearest non-bypassing ancestor, which is then responsible for running them. On behalf of such a non-bypassing host, scx_dispatch_sched() consumes those bypass DSQs from two places: the attempt made every SCX_BYPASS_HOST_NTH dispatches, and the end-of-dispatch fallback that keeps the CPU from going idle while bypassed descendants still have tasks queued. The former increments SCX_EV_SUB_BYPASS_DISPATCH but the latter does not, even though both perform the same scx_consume_dispatch_q() on the same bypass DSQ. The descendant bypass dispatches done by the fallback are therefore missing from the counter exposed via sysfs, scx_dump_state() and the scx_bpf_events() kfunc, which under-reports the actual number of such dispatches. Add the missing __scx_add_event() so the fallback counts them too. When @sch itself is bypassing, scx_dispatch_sched() takes the earlier self-bypass branch and returns before reaching these host paths; that mode is accounted for by SCX_EV_BYPASS_DISPATCH at enqueue time and is intentionally left unchanged.

2026-09-23arm64/boot: Disable trapping of PMZR_EL0 writes to EL2graftedFuad Tabba
__init_el2_fgt2() writes one mask to both HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2. PMZR_EL0 is write-only, so its trap bit, nPMZR_EL0, exists only in HDFGWTR2_EL2 and is therefore never set: a PMZR_EL0 write from the host traps to EL2, where the nVHE hypervisor has no handler and BUG()s. The kernel never writes PMZR_EL0, but kernel.perf_user_access=1 has the PMU driver set PMUSERENR_EL0.UEN for a task with a user-read event, so a write from EL0 reaches the trap and takes the host down without a panic message. Accumulate the HDFGWTR2_EL2 bits separately, as __init_el2_fgt() already does for HDFGWTR_EL2, and set nPMZR_EL0 with the other FEAT_PMUv3p9 bits.

2026-09-23perf/core: Fill branch entries with a single assignmentPuranjay Mohan
perf_clear_branch_entry_bitfields() clears the bitfields of struct perf_branch_entry one by one and leaves from/to alone, since callers overwrite those straight away. The list has to be kept in sync with the struct by hand and has already fallen behind: new_type and priv were added to perf_branch_entry and never added here. Only BRBE writes those two, and neither for every record. brbe_set_perf_entry_type() leaves new_type alone for a branch type it does not recognise, and priv is not set for source-only records. arm_pmuv3.c allocates the per-CPU branch stack with kmalloc(), so such a record reaches userspace with whatever the slot held: uninitialised kmalloc() data on the first pass over the buffer, the previous record's values after that. Nothing under arch/x86/events/ writes either field, so only arm64 is affected. Assign the whole entry at each site instead. Everything not named is then zero, and there is no list to keep in sync. The bitfields add up to exactly 64 bits, so the struct has no padding to leave undefined. perf_clear_branch_entry_bitfields() has no callers left, so remove it. perf_entry_from_brbe_regset() assigns an empty literal instead, since it fills from/to conditionally. PERF_BR_SPEC_NA is 0, so dropping the explicit spec assignment changes nothing.

2026-09-23perf/core: Run sched_task() for PMUs with only CPU-wide eventsPuranjay Mohan
perf_pmu_sched_task() returns early when cpuctx->task_ctx is set and leaves the work to perf_ctx_sched_task_cb(), which only walks ctx->pmu_ctx_list. A PMU whose events are all CPU-wide is not on that list, so nothing calls its sched_task(). With perf record -b -e cycles -a -- ls armv8pmu_sched_task() is skipped on every switch to a task that has a perf context but no event on that PMU, and BRBE records leak across the task boundary. intel_pmu_lbr_add() calls perf_sched_cb_inc() unconditionally too, so LBR records leak the same way on x86. Drop the early return and skip only the CPCs that perf_ctx_sched_task_cb() handles. That one needs a gate of its own to make the split exact: it tests cpc->sched_cb_usage, which perf_sched_cb_inc() sets per CPU for every branch stack user, so a task with an event for that PMU pinned to another CPU would be handled twice. On x86 the second __intel_pmu_lbr_restore() finds lbr_stack_state == LBR_NONE and calls intel_pmu_lbr_reset(), throwing away the callstack the first one restored. cpc->task_epc is set only while a task context is scheduled in, and there is one epc per PMU on ctx->pmu_ctx_list, so the two gates are inverses. For the CPCs perf_pmu_sched_task() picks up, the callback now runs outside the perf_ctx_disable() and perf_ctx_enable() pair in perf_event_context_sched_in(). __perf_pmu_sched_task() disables the PMU around the call itself.

2026-09-22sched/cache: Refresh LLC capacity across CPU hotplug, to fix capacity ↵Davi Chaves Azevedo
underestimation bug The scheduler scales LLC capacity by the fraction of cache-sharing CPUs covered by a domain: llc_bytes = cache_size * span_weight / shared_weight During CPU teardown, sched_cpu_deactivate() rebuilds scheduler domains before cacheinfo_cpu_pre_down() removes the CPU from shared_cpu_map. The new domains therefore use the old sharing weight. The later call to sched_update_llc_bytes() looks up the departing CPU's sd_llc, which has already been detached, and returns without correcting the surviving CPUs. On a Ryzen 5 7535U with twelve logical CPUs sharing a 16 MiB LLC, offlining one SMT sibling left the remaining CPUs with: llc_bytes = floor(16777216 * 11 / 12) = 15379114 bytes The correct capacity is still 16777216 bytes. On systems with active cache-aware scheduling, an underestimated capacity can cause exceed_llc_capacity() to reject aggregation for a process whose footprint would fit. Unchanged cpuset partitions sharing the physical cache can also retain stale capacity when a CPU comes online in another partition. Pass the cache-sharing mask already retained by cacheinfo to the scheduler update. Refresh every surviving CPU using its own LLC domain so that each partition receives the correct share. This also preserves the correction needed as cache-sharing maps grow during boot. Keep the existing CPU-hotplug and scheduler-domain synchronization. The update remains on the hotplug path; no steady-state scheduling operation or persistent allocation is added.
