[ Upstream commit cb3d1049f4ea77d5ad93f17d8ac1f2ed4da70501 ]

Currently, there are 12 busses (including platform and PCI) that
duplicate the driver_override logic for their individual devices.

All of them seem to be prone to the bug described in [1].

While this could be solved for every bus individually using a separate
lock, solving this in the driver-core generically results in less (and
cleaner) changes overall.

Thus, move driver_override to struct device, provide corresponding
accessors for busses and handle locking with a separate lock internally.

In particular, add device_set_driver_override(),
device_has_driver_override(), device_match_driver_override() and
generalize the sysfs store() and show() callbacks via a driver_override
feature flag in struct bus_type.

Until all busses have migrated, keep driver_set_override() in place.

Note that we can't use the device lock for the reasons described in [2].

This reverts commit 8d76b2488eb3cc0717ab81b60622cff4a5f90f79 which is
commit dc23806a7c47ec5f1293aba407fb69519f976ee0 upstream.

It causes boot regressions on some systems as all of the "fixes" for
drivers are not properly backported yet.  Once that is completed, only
then can this be applied, if really necessary given the potential for
explosions, perhaps we might want to wait a few -rc releases first...

commit dc23806a7c47ec5f1293aba407fb69519f976ee0 upstream.

Currently, driver_match_device() is called from three sites. One site
(__device_attach_driver) holds device_lock(dev), but the other two
(bind_store and __driver_attach) do not. This inconsistency means that
bus match() callbacks are not guaranteed to be called with the lock
held.

Fix this by introducing driver_match_device_locked(), which guarantees
holding the device lock using a scoped guard. Replace the unlocked calls
in bind_store() and __driver_attach() with this new helper. Also add a
lock assertion to driver_match_device() to enforce this guarantee.

This consistency also fixes a known race condition. The driver_override
implementation relies on the device_lock, so the missing lock led to the
use-after-free (UAF) reported in Bugzilla for buses using this field.

Stress testing the two newly locked paths for 24 hours with
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING and CONFIG_LOCKDEP enabled showed no UAF recurrence
and no lockdep warnings.

<title>PM: domains: Detach on device_unbind_cleanup()</title>

<id>f99508074e78fea17f06d753d9ef453b174ec98e</id>
<content type='text'>
The dev_pm_domain_attach() function is typically used in bus code
alongside dev_pm_domain_detach(), often following patterns like:

static int bus_probe(struct device *_dev)
{
    struct bus_driver *drv = to_bus_driver(dev-&gt;driver);
    struct bus_device *dev = to_bus_device(_dev);
    int ret;

    // ...

    ret = dev_pm_domain_attach(_dev, true);
    if (ret)
        return ret;

    if (drv-&gt;probe)
        ret = drv-&gt;probe(dev);

    // ...
}

static void bus_remove(struct device *_dev)
{
    struct bus_driver *drv = to_bus_driver(dev-&gt;driver);
    struct bus_device *dev = to_bus_device(_dev);

    if (drv-&gt;remove)
        drv-&gt;remove(dev);
    dev_pm_domain_detach(_dev);
}

When the driver's probe function uses devres-managed resources that
depend on the power domain state, those resources are released later
during device_unbind_cleanup().

Releasing devres-managed resources that depend on the power domain state
after detaching the device from its PM domain can cause failures.

For example, if the driver uses devm_pm_runtime_enable() in its probe
function, and the device's clocks are managed by the PM domain, then
during removal the runtime PM is disabled in device_unbind_cleanup()
after the clocks have been removed from the PM domain. It may happen
that the devm_pm_runtime_enable() action causes the device to be runtime-
resumed. If the driver specific runtime PM APIs access registers directly,
this will lead to accessing device registers without clocks being enabled.
Similar issues may occur with other devres actions that access device
registers.

Add detach_power_off member to struct dev_pm_info, to be used
later in device_unbind_cleanup() as the power_off argument for
dev_pm_domain_detach(). This is a preparatory step toward removing
dev_pm_domain_detach() calls from bus remove functions. Since the current
PM domain detach functions (genpd_dev_pm_detach() and acpi_dev_pm_detach())
already set dev-&gt;pm_domain = NULL, there should be no issues with bus
drivers that still call dev_pm_domain_detach() in their remove functions.

   - minor driver core cleanups

   - minor driver core bus and class api cleanups and simplifications
     for some callbacks

   - some const markings of structures

   - other even more minor cleanups

  All of these, including the last minute reverts, have been in
  linux-next, but all of the reports of problems in linux-next were

Trivially simplify ((struct device_private *)curr)-&gt;device-&gt;p to @curr
in deferred_devs_show() since both are same.

<title>platform: Add test managed platform_device/driver APIs</title>

Introduce KUnit resource wrappers around platform_driver_register(),
platform_device_alloc(), and platform_device_add() so that test authors
can register platform drivers/devices from their tests and have the
drivers/devices automatically be unregistered when the test is done.

This makes test setup code simpler when a platform driver or platform
device is needed. Add a few test cases at the same time to make sure the
APIs work as intended.

Change device_driver_attach() and driver_attach() to take a const * to
struct device driver as neither of them modify the structure at all.

Also, for some odd reason, drivers/dma/idxd/compat.c had a duplicate
external reference to device_driver_attach(), so remove that to fix up
the build, it should never have had that there in the first place.

<title>driver core: mark async_driver as a const *</title>

Within struct device_private, mark the async_driver * as const as it is
never modified.  This requires some internal-to-the-driver-core
functions to also have their parameters marked as constant, and there is
one place where we cast _back_ from the const pointer to a real one, as
the driver core still wants to modify the structure in a number of
remaining places.
