[ Upstream commit 6f770b73d0311a5b099277653199bb6421c4fed2 ]

When a device performs DMA to a bounce buffer, KMSAN is unaware of
the write and does not mark the data as initialized.  When
swiotlb_bounce() later copies the bounce buffer back to the original
buffer, memcpy propagates the uninitialized shadow to the original
buffer, causing false positive uninit-value reports.

Fix this by calling kmsan_unpoison_memory() on the bounce buffer
before copying it back in the DMA_FROM_DEVICE path, so that memcpy
naturally propagates initialized shadow to the destination.

<title>dma/pool: distinguish between missing and exhausted atomic pools</title>

[ Upstream commit 56c430c7f06d838fe3b2077dbbc4cc0bf992312b ]

Currently, dma_alloc_from_pool() unconditionally warns and dumps a stack
trace when an allocation fails, with the message "Failed to get suitable
pool".

This conflates two distinct failure modes:
1. Configuration error: No atomic pool is available for the requested
   DMA mask (a fundamental system setup issue)
2. Resource Exhaustion: A suitable pool exists but is currently full (a
   recoverable runtime state)

This lack of distinction prevents drivers from using __GFP_NOWARN to
suppress error messages during temporary pressure spikes, such as when
awaiting synchronous reclaim of descriptors.

Refactor the error handling to distinguish these cases:
- If no suitable pool is found, keep the unconditional WARN regarding
  the missing pool.
- If a pool was found but is exhausted, respect __GFP_NOWARN and update
  the warning message to explicitly state "DMA pool exhausted".

commit 03521c892bb8d0712c23e158ae9bdf8705897df8 upstream.

Commit 370645f41e6e ("dma-mapping: force bouncing if the kmalloc() size is
not cache-line-aligned") introduced DMA_BOUNCE_UNALIGNED_KMALLOC feature
and permitted architecture specific code configure kmalloc slabs with
sizes smaller than the value of dma_get_cache_alignment().

When that feature is enabled, the physical address of some small
kmalloc()-ed buffers might be not aligned to the CPU cachelines, thus not
really suitable for typical DMA.  To properly handle that case a SWIOTLB
buffer bouncing is used, so no CPU cache corruption occurs.  When that
happens, there is no point reporting a false-positive DMA-API warning that
the buffer is not properly aligned, as this is not a client driver fault.

<title>dma/pool: Ensure DMA_DIRECT_REMAP allocations are decrypted</title>

commit 89a2d212bdb4bc29bed8e7077abe054b801137ea upstream.

When CONFIG_DMA_DIRECT_REMAP is enabled, atomic pool pages are
remapped via dma_common_contiguous_remap() using the supplied
pgprot. Currently, the mapping uses
pgprot_dmacoherent(PAGE_KERNEL), which leaves the memory encrypted
on systems with memory encryption enabled (e.g., ARM CCA Realms).

This can cause the DMA layer to fail or crash when accessing the
memory, as the underlying physical pages are not configured as
expected.

Fix this by requesting a decrypted mapping in the vmap() call:
pgprot_decrypted(pgprot_dmacoherent(PAGE_KERNEL))

This ensures that atomic pool memory is consistently mapped
unencrypted.

<title>dma-debug: fix a possible deadlock on radix_lock</title>

[ Upstream commit 7543c3e3b9b88212fcd0aaf5cab5588797bdc7de ]

radix_lock() shouldn't be held while holding dma_hash_entry[idx].lock
otherwise, there's a possible deadlock scenario when
dma debug API is called holding rq_lock():

CPU0                   CPU1                       CPU2
dma_free_attrs()
check_unmap()          add_dma_entry()            __schedule() //out
                                                  (A) rq_lock()
get_hash_bucket()
(A) dma_entry_hash
                                                  check_sync()
                       (A) radix_lock()           (W) dma_entry_hash
dma_entry_free()
(W) radix_lock()
                       // CPU2's one
                       (W) rq_lock()

CPU1 situation can happen when it extending radix tree and
it tries to wake up kswapd via wake_all_kswapd().

CPU2 situation can happen while perf_event_task_sched_out()
(i.e. dma sync operation is called while deleting perf_event using
 etm and etr tmc which are Arm Coresight hwtracing driver backends).

To remove this possible situation, call dma_entry_free() after
put_hash_bucket() in check_unmap().

(i.e. dma sync operation is called while deleting perf_event using
 etm and etr tmc which are Arm Coresight hwtracing driver backends).

To remove this possible situation, call dma_entry_free() after
put_hash_bucket() in check_unmap().

[ Upstream commit 54624acf8843375a6de3717ac18df3b5104c39c5 ]

The test thread will start N benchmark kthreads and then schedule out
until the test time finished and notify the benchmark kthreads to stop.
The benchmark kthreads will keep running until notified to stop.
There's a problem with current implementation when the benchmark
kthreads number is equal to the CPUs on a non-preemptible kernel:
since the scheduler will balance the kthreads across the CPUs and
when the test time's out the test thread won't get a chance to be
scheduled on any CPU then cannot notify the benchmark kthreads to stop.

This can be easily reproduced on a VM (simulated with 16 CPUs) with
PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY:

Solve this by adding scheduling point in the kthread loop,
so if there're other threads in the system they may have
a chance to run, especially the thread to notify the test
end. However this may degrade the test concurrency so it's
recommended to run this on an idle system.

<title>dma-debug: avoid deadlock between dma debug vs printk and netconsole</title>

[ Upstream commit bd44ca3de49cc1badcff7a96010fa2c64f04868c ]

Currently the dma debugging code can end up indirectly calling printk
under the radix_lock. This happens when a radix tree node allocation
fails.

This is a problem because the printk code, when used together with
netconsole, can end up inside the dma debugging code while trying to
transmit a message over netcons.

This creates the possibility of either a circular deadlock on the same
CPU, with that CPU trying to grab the radix_lock twice, or an ABBA
deadlock between different CPUs, where one CPU grabs the console lock
first and then waits for the radix_lock, while the other CPU is holding
the radix_lock and is waiting for the console lock.

The trace captured by lockdep is of the ABBA variant.

This bug is more likely than it seems, because when one CPU has run out
of memory, chances are the other has too.

The good news is, this bug is hidden behind the CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG, so
not many users are likely to trigger it.

This bug is more likely than it seems, because when one CPU has run out
of memory, chances are the other has too.

The good news is, this bug is hidden behind the CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG, so
not many users are likely to trigger it.

This reverts commit 983e6b2636f0099dbac1874c9e885bbe1cf2df05 which is
commit 8a2f11878771da65b8ac135c73b47dae13afbd62 upstream.

It wasn't needed and caused a build break on s390, so just revert it
entirely.
