[ Upstream commit 94322ed8e857e3b2a33cf75118051af9baaa110f ]

PSL9D doesn't have a data-cache that needs to be flushed before
resetting the card. However when cxl tries to flush data-cache on such
a card, it times-out as PSL_Control register never indicates flush
operation complete due to missing data-cache. This is usually
indicated in the kernel logs with this message:

"WARNING: cache flush timed out"

To fix this the patch checks PSL_Debug register CDC-Field(BIT:27)
which indicates the absence of a data-cache and sets a flag
'no_data_cache' in 'struct cxl_native' to indicate this. When
cxl_data_cache_flush() is called it checks the flag and if set bails
out early without requesting a data-cache flush operation to the PSL.

<title>cxl: Fix possible deadlock when processing page faults from cxllib</title>

commit ad7b4e8022b9864c075fe71e1328b1d25cad82f6 upstream.

cxllib_handle_fault() is called by an external driver when it needs to
have the host resolve page faults for a buffer. The buffer can cover
several pages and VMAs. The function iterates over all the pages used
by the buffer, based on the page size of the VMA.

To ensure some stability while processing the faults, the thread T1
grabs the mm-&gt;mmap_sem semaphore with read access (R1). However, when
processing a page fault for a single page, one of the underlying
functions, copro_handle_mm_fault(), also grabs the same semaphore with
read access (R2). So the thread T1 takes the semaphore twice.

If another thread T2 tries to access the semaphore in write mode W1
(say, because it wants to allocate memory and calls 'brk'), then that
thread T2 will have to wait because there's a reader (R1). If the
thread T1 is processing a new page at that time, it won't get an
automatic grant at R2, because there's now a writer thread
waiting (T2). And we have a deadlock.

The timeline is:
1. thread T1 owns the semaphore with read access R1
2. thread T2 requests write access W1 and waits
3. thread T1 requests read access R2 and waits

The fix is for the thread T1 to release the semaphore R1 once it got
the information it needs from the current VMA. The address space/VMAs
could evolve while T1 iterates over the full buffer, but in the
unlikely case where T1 misses a page, the external driver will raise a
new page fault when retrying the memory access.

commit bb0829a741792b56c908d7745bc0b2b540293bcc upstream.

Currently the driver spams the kernel log on unsupported ioctls which is
unnecessary as the ioctl returns -ENOIOCTLCMD to indicate this anyway.
I suspect this was originally for debugging purposes but it really is not
required so remove it.

commit 4950276672fce5c241857540f8561c440663673d upstream.

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2.

As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck.

KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of
kmemcheck (single CPU, slow).  KASan is already upstream.

We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't
consider KASan as a suitable replacement).

The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC
versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2
years, and try again.

Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports
KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.

This patch (of 4):

Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.

commit cc365dcf0e56271bedf3de95f88922abe248e951 upstream.

&gt;From the pci power documentation:
"The driver itself should not call pm_runtime_allow(), though. Instead,
it should let user space or some platform-specific code do that (user space
can do it via sysfs as stated above)..."

However, the S0ix residency cannot be reached without MEI device getting
into low power state. Hence, for mei devices that support D0i3, it's better
to make runtime power management mandatory and not rely on the system
integration such as udev rules.
This policy cannot be applied globally as some older platforms
were found to have broken power management.

commit 03b2a320b19f1424e9ac9c21696be9c60b6d0d93 upstream.

The x86_hyper pointer is only used for checking whether a virtual
device is supporting the hypervisor the system is running on.

Use an enum for that purpose instead and drop the x86_hyper pointer.

commit 03b2a320b19f1424e9ac9c21696be9c60b6d0d93 upstream.

The x86_hyper pointer is only used for checking whether a virtual
device is supporting the hypervisor the system is running on.

Use an enum for that purpose instead and drop the x86_hyper pointer.

[ Upstream commit 846df244ebefbc9f7b91e9ae7a5e5a2e69fb4772 ]

If you call ida_simple_remove(&amp;pci_endpoint_test_ida, id) with a
negative "id" then it triggers an immediate BUG_ON().  Let's not allow
that.
