[ Upstream commit dc90bbefa792031d89fe2af9ad4a6febd6be96a9 ]

In the existing definition of sdw_stream_runtime, the 'type' member is
never set and defaults to PCM. To prepare for the BPT/BRA support, we
need to special-case streams and make use of the 'type'.

No functional change for now, the implicit PCM type is now explicit.

accordingly.  The warning emitted by CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP is due to
disable_irq (called in mctrl_gpio_disable_ms) being possibly called in
some atomic context (some tty drivers perform modem lines configuration
in regions protected by port lock).

Split mctrl_gpio_disable_ms into two differents APIs, a non-blocking one
and a blocking one. Replace mctrl_gpio_disable_ms calls with the
relevant version depending on whether the call is protected by some port
lock.

[ Upstream commit 4ebd9a5ca478673cfbb38795cc5b3adb4f35fe04 ]

With the latest mm-unstable, setting the iaa_crypto sync_mode to 'async'
causes crypto testmgr.c test_acomp() failure and dmesg call traces, and
zswap being unable to use 'deflate-iaa' as a compressor:

This happens because the only async polling without interrupts that
iaa_crypto currently implements is with the 'sync' mode. With 'async',
iaa_crypto calls to compress/decompress submit the descriptor and return
-EINPROGRESS, without any mechanism in the driver to poll for
completions. Hence callers such as test_acomp() in crypto/testmgr.c or
zswap, that wrap the calls to crypto_acomp_compress() and
crypto_acomp_decompress() in synchronous wrappers, will block
indefinitely. Even before zswap can notice this problem, the crypto
testmgr.c's test_acomp() will fail and prevent registration of
"deflate-iaa" as a valid crypto acomp algorithm, thereby disallowing the
use of "deflate-iaa" as a zswap compress (zswap will fall-back to the
default compressor in this case).

To fix this issue, this patch modifies the iaa_crypto sync_mode set
function to treat 'async' equivalent to 'sync', so that the correct and
only supported driver async polling without interrupts implementation is
enabled, and zswap can use 'deflate-iaa' as the compressor.

Hence, with this patch, this is what will happen:

echo async &gt; /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
cat /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
sync

There are no crypto/testmgr.c test_acomp() errors, no call traces and zswap
can use 'deflate-iaa' without any errors. The iaa_crypto documentation has
also been updated to mention this caveat with 'async' and what to expect
with this fix.

True iaa_crypto async polling without interrupts is enabled in patch
"crypto: iaa - Implement batch_compress(), batch_decompress() API in
iaa_crypto." [1] which is under review as part of the "zswap IAA compress
batching" patch-series [2]. Until this is merged, we would appreciate it if
this current patch can be considered for a hotfix.

[ Upstream commit 4ebd9a5ca478673cfbb38795cc5b3adb4f35fe04 ]

With the latest mm-unstable, setting the iaa_crypto sync_mode to 'async'
causes crypto testmgr.c test_acomp() failure and dmesg call traces, and
zswap being unable to use 'deflate-iaa' as a compressor:

echo async &gt; /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode

This happens because the only async polling without interrupts that
iaa_crypto currently implements is with the 'sync' mode. With 'async',
iaa_crypto calls to compress/decompress submit the descriptor and return
-EINPROGRESS, without any mechanism in the driver to poll for
completions. Hence callers such as test_acomp() in crypto/testmgr.c or
zswap, that wrap the calls to crypto_acomp_compress() and
crypto_acomp_decompress() in synchronous wrappers, will block
indefinitely. Even before zswap can notice this problem, the crypto
testmgr.c's test_acomp() will fail and prevent registration of
"deflate-iaa" as a valid crypto acomp algorithm, thereby disallowing the
use of "deflate-iaa" as a zswap compress (zswap will fall-back to the
default compressor in this case).

To fix this issue, this patch modifies the iaa_crypto sync_mode set
function to treat 'async' equivalent to 'sync', so that the correct and
only supported driver async polling without interrupts implementation is
enabled, and zswap can use 'deflate-iaa' as the compressor.

Hence, with this patch, this is what will happen:

echo async &gt; /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
cat /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
sync

There are no crypto/testmgr.c test_acomp() errors, no call traces and zswap
can use 'deflate-iaa' without any errors. The iaa_crypto documentation has
also been updated to mention this caveat with 'async' and what to expect
with this fix.

True iaa_crypto async polling without interrupts is enabled in patch
"crypto: iaa - Implement batch_compress(), batch_decompress() API in
iaa_crypto." [1] which is under review as part of the "zswap IAA compress
batching" patch-series [2]. Until this is merged, we would appreciate it if
this current patch can be considered for a hotfix.

   - Move all mailbox related data to 'struct cxl_mailbox'
   - Refactor mailbox APIs with 'struct cxl_mailbox' as input instead of
     memory device state

  Add support for shared upstream link access_coordinate calculation for
  configurations that have multiple targets under a switch or a root
  port where the aggregated bandwidth can be greater than the upstream
  link of the switch/RP upstream link:
   - Preserve the CDAT access_coordinate from an endpoint
   - Add the support for shared upstream link access_coordinate calculation
   - Add documentation to explain how the calculations are done

  Remove locking from memory notifier callback.

  Misc cleanups:
   - Convert devm_cxl_add_root() to return using ERR_CAST()
   - cxl_test use dev_is_platform() instead of open coding
   - Remove duplicate include of header core.h in core/cdat.c

Pull firewire updates from Takashi Sakamoto:
 "In the FireWire subsystem, tasklets have been used as the bottom half
  of 1394 OHCi hardIRQ. In recent kernel updates, BH workqueues have
  become available, and some developers have proposed replacing the
  tasklet with a BH workqueue.

  As a first step towards dropping tasklet use, the 1394 OHCI
  isochronous context can use regular workqueues. In this context, the
  batch of packets is processed in the specific queue, thus the timing
  jitter caused by task scheduling is not so critical.

  Additionally, DMA transmission can be scheduled per-packet basis,
  therefore the context can be sleep between the operation of
  transmissions. Furthermore, in-kernel protocol implementation involves
  some CPU-bound tasks, which can sometimes consumes CPU time so long.
  These characteristics suggest that normal workqueues are suitable,
  through BH workqueues are not.

  The replacement with a workqueue allows unit drivers to process the
  content of packets in non-atomic context. It brings some reliefs to
  some drivers in sound subsystem that spin-lock is not mandatory
  anymore during isochronous packet processing.

  Summary:
