We're trying to add a strict regexp for the name format in the spec.
Underscores will not be allowed, dashes should be used instead.
This makes no difference to C (codegen, if used, replaces special
chars in names) but it gives more uniform naming in Python.

UBLK_F_SUPPORT_ZERO_COPY has a very old comment describing the initial
idea for how zero-copy would be implemented. The actual implementation
added in commit 1f6540e2aabb ("ublk: zc register/unregister bvec") uses
io_uring registered buffers rather than shared memory mapping.
Remove the inaccurate remarks about mapping ublk request memory into the
ublk server's address space and requiring 4K block size. Replace them
with a description of the current zero-copy mechanism.

When a C++ file compiled with -Wc++11-narrowing includes the UAPI header
linux/ublk_cmd.h, ublk_sqe_addr_to_auto_buf_reg()'s assignments of u64
values to u8, u16, and u32 fields result in compiler warnings. Add
explicit casts to the intended types to avoid these warnings. Drop the
unnecessary bitmasks.

Exit to userspace for TDG.VP.VMCALL<GetTdVmCallInfo> via KVM_EXIT_TDX,
to allow userspace to provide information about the support of
TDVMCALLs when r12 is 1 for the TDVMCALLs beyond the GHCI base API.
GHCI spec defines the GHCI base TDVMCALLs: <GetTdVmCallInfo>, <MapGPA>,
<ReportFatalError>, <Instruction.CPUID>, <#VE.RequestMMIO>,
<Instruction.HLT>, <Instruction.IO>, <Instruction.RDMSR> and
<Instruction.WRMSR>. They must be supported by VMM to support TDX guests.
For GetTdVmCallInfo
- When leaf (r12) to enumerate TDVMCALL functionality is set to 0,
successful execution indicates all GHCI base TDVMCALLs listed above are
supported.
Update the KVM TDX document with the set of the GHCI base APIs.
- When leaf (r12) to enumerate TDVMCALL functionality is set to 1, it
indicates the TDX guest is querying the supported TDVMCALLs beyond
the GHCI base TDVMCALLs.
Exit to userspace to let userspace set the TDVMCALL sub-function bit(s)
accordingly to the leaf outputs. KVM could set the TDVMCALL bit(s)
supported by itself when the TDVMCALLs don't need support from userspace
after returning from userspace and before entering guest. Currently, no
such TDVMCALLs implemented, KVM just sets the values returned from
userspace.

Handle TDVMCALL for GetQuote to generate a TD-Quote.
GetQuote is a doorbell-like interface used by TDX guests to request VMM
to generate a TD-Quote signed by a service hosting TD-Quoting Enclave
operating on the host. A TDX guest passes a TD Report (TDREPORT_STRUCT) in
a shared-memory area as parameter. Host VMM can access it and queue the
operation for a service hosting TD-Quoting enclave. When completed, the
Quote is returned via the same shared-memory area.
KVM only checks the GPA from the TDX guest has the shared-bit set and drops
the shared-bit before exiting to userspace to avoid bleeding the shared-bit
into KVM's exit ABI. KVM forwards the request to userspace VMM (e.g. QEMU)
and userspace VMM queues the operation asynchronously. KVM sets the return
code according to the 'ret' field set by userspace to notify the TDX guest
whether the request has been queued successfully or not. When the request
has been queued successfully, the TDX guest can poll the status field in
the shared-memory area to check whether the Quote generation is completed
or not. When completed, the generated Quote is returned via the same
buffer.
Add KVM_EXIT_TDX as a new exit reason to userspace. Userspace is
required to handle the KVM exit reason as the initial support for TDX,
by reentering KVM to ensure that the TDVMCALL is complete. While at it,
add a note that KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL also requires reentry with KVM_RUN.

Commit under fixes switched to uAPI generation from the YAML
spec. A number of custom defines were left behind, mostly
for commands very hard to express in YAML spec.
Among what was left behind was the name and version of
the generic netlink family. Problem is that the codegen
always outputs those values so we ended up with a duplicated,
differently named set of defines.
Provide naming info in YAML and remove the incorrect defines.

Pull USB / Thunderbolt updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of USB and Thunderbolt changes for 6.16-rc1.
Included in here are the following:
- USB offload support for audio devices.
I think this takes the record for the most number of patch series
(30+) over the longest period of time (2+ years) to get merged
properly.
Many props go to Wesley Cheng for seeing this effort through, they
took a major out-of-tree hacked-up-monstrosity that was created by
multiple vendors for their specific devices, got it all merged into
a semi-coherent set of changes, and got all of the different major
subsystems to agree on how this should be implemented both with
changes to their code as well as userspace apis, AND wrangled the
hardware companies into agreeing to go forward with this, despite
making them all redo work they had already done in their private
device trees.
This feature offers major power savings on embedded devices where a
USB audio stream can continue to flow while the rest of the system
is sleeping, something that devices running on battery power really
care about. There are still some more small tweaks left to be done
here, and those patches are still out for review and arguing among
the different hardware companies, but this is a major step forward
and a great example of how to do upstream development well.
- small number of thunderbolt fixes and updates, things seem to be
slowing down here (famous last words...)
- xhci refactors and reworking to try to handle some rough corner
cases in some hardware implementations where things don't always
work properly
- typec driver updates
- USB3 power management reworking and updates
- Removal of some old and orphaned UDC gadget drivers that had not
been used in a very long time, dropping over 11 thousand lines from
the tree, always a nice thing, making up for the 12k lines added
for the USB offload feature.
- lots of little updates and fixes in different drivers
All of these have been in linux-next for over 2 weeks, the USB offload
logic has been in there for 8 weeks now, with no reported issues"

Commit 1e7933a575ed ("uapi: Revert "bitops: avoid integer overflow in GENMASK(_ULL)"")
did not take in account that the usage of BITS_PER_LONG in __GENMASK() was
changed to __BITS_PER_LONG for UAPI-safety in
commit 3c7a8e190bc5 ("uapi: introduce uapi-friendly macros for GENMASK").
BITS_PER_LONG can not be used in UAPI headers as it derives from the kernel
configuration and not from the current compiler invocation.
When building compat userspace code or a compat vDSO its value will be
incorrect.
Switch back to __BITS_PER_LONG.

Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Print the actual delay time in pci_bridge_wait_for_secondary_bus()
instead of assuming it was 1000ms (Wilfred Mallawa)
- Revert 'iommu/amd: Prevent binding other PCI drivers to IOMMU PCI
devices', which broke resume from system sleep on AMD platforms and
has been fixed by other commits (Lukas Wunner)
Resource management:
- Remove mtip32xx use of pcim_iounmap_regions(), which is deprecated
and unnecessary (Philipp Stanner)
- Remove pcim_iounmap_regions() and pcim_request_region_exclusive()
and related flags since all uses have been removed (Philipp
Stanner)
- Rework devres 'request' functions so they are no longer 'hybrid',
i.e., their behavior no longer depends on whether
pcim_enable_device or pci_enable_device() was used, and remove
related code (Philipp Stanner)
- Warn (not BUG()) about failure to assign optional resources (Ilpo
Järvinen)
Error handling:
- Log the DPC Error Source ID only when it's actually valid (when
ERR_FATAL or ERR_NONFATAL was received from a downstream device)
and decode into bus/device/function (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Determine AER log level once and save it so all related messages
use the same level (Karolina Stolarek)
- Use KERN_WARNING, not KERN_ERR, when logging PCIe Correctable
Errors (Karolina Stolarek)
- Ratelimit PCIe Correctable and Non-Fatal error logging, with sysfs
controls on interval and burst count, to avoid flooding logs and
RCU stall warnings (Jon Pan-Doh)
Power management:
- Increment PM usage counter when probing reset methods so we don't
try to read config space of a powered-off device (Alex Williamson)
- Set all devices to D0 during enumeration to ensure ACPI opregion is
connected via _REG (Mario Limonciello)
Power control:
- Rename pwrctrl Kconfig symbols from 'PWRCTL' to 'PWRCTRL' to match
the filename paths. Retain old deprecated symbols for
compatibility, except for the pwrctrl slot driver
(PCI_PWRCTRL_SLOT) (Johan Hovold)
- When unregistering pwrctrl, cancel outstanding rescan work before
cleaning up data structures to avoid use-after-free issues (Brian
Norris)
Bandwidth control:
- Simplify link bandwidth controller by replacing the count of Link
Bandwidth Management Status (LBMS) events with a PCI_LINK_LBMS_SEEN
flag (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Update the Link Speed after retraining, since the Link Speed may
have changed (Ilpo Järvinen)
PCIe native device hotplug:
- Ignore Presence Detect Changed caused by DPC.
pciehp already ignores Link Down/Up events caused by DPC, but on
slots using in-band presence detect, DPC causes a spurious Presence
Detect Changed event (Lukas Wunner)
- Ignore Link Down/Up caused by Secondary Bus Reset.
On hotplug ports using in-band presence detect, the reset causes a
Presence Detect Changed event, which mistakenly caused teardown and
re-enumeration of the device. Drivers may need to annotate code
that resets their device (Lukas Wunner)
Virtualization:
- Add an ACS quirk for Loongson Root Ports that don't advertise ACS
but don't allow peer-to-peer transactions between Root Ports; the
quirk allows each Root Port to be in a separate IOMMU group (Huacai
Chen)
Endpoint framework:
- For fixed-size BARs, retain both the actual size and the possibly
larger size allocated to accommodate iATU alignment requirements
(Jerome Brunet)
- Simplify ctrl/SPAD space allocation and avoid allocating more space
than needed (Jerome Brunet)
- Correct MSI-X PBA offset calculations for DesignWare and Cadence
endpoint controllers (Niklas Cassel)
- Align the return value (number of interrupts) encoding for
pci_epc_get_msi()/pci_epc_ops::get_msi() and
pci_epc_get_msix()/pci_epc_ops::get_msix() (Niklas Cassel)
- Align the nr_irqs parameter encoding for
pci_epc_set_msi()/pci_epc_ops::set_msi() and
pci_epc_set_msix()/pci_epc_ops::set_msix() (Niklas Cassel)
Common host controller library:
- Convert pci-host-common to a library so platforms that don't need
native host controller drivers don't need to include these helper
functions (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
Apple PCIe controller driver:
- Extract ECAM bridge creation helper from pci_host_common_probe() to
separate driver-specific things like MSI from PCI things (Marc
Zyngier)
- Dynamically allocate RID-to_SID bitmap to prepare for SoCs with
varying capabilities (Marc Zyngier)
- Skip ports disabled in DT when setting up ports (Janne Grunau)
- Add t6020 compatible string (Alyssa Rosenzweig)
- Add T602x PCIe support (Hector Martin)
- Directly set/clear INTx mask bits because T602x dropped the
accessors that could do this without locking (Marc Zyngier)
- Move port PHY registers to their own reg items to accommodate
T602x, which moves them around; retain default offsets for existing
DTs that lack phy%d entries with the reg offsets (Hector Martin)
- Stop polling for core refclk, which doesn't work on T602x and the
bootloader has already done anyway (Hector Martin)
- Use gpiod_set_value_cansleep() when asserting PERST# in probe
because we're allowed to sleep there (Hector Martin)
Cadence PCIe controller driver:
- Drop a runtime PM 'put' to resolve a runtime atomic count underflow
(Hans Zhang)
- Make the cadence core buildable as a module (Kishon Vijay Abraham I)
- Add cdns_pcie_host_disable() and cdns_pcie_ep_disable() for use by
loadable drivers when they are removed (Siddharth Vadapalli)
Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:
- Apply link training workaround only on IMX6Q, IMX6SX, IMX6SP
(Richard Zhu)
- Remove redundant dw_pcie_wait_for_link() from
imx_pcie_start_link(); since the DWC core does this, imx6 only
needs it when retraining for a faster link speed (Richard Zhu)
- Toggle i.MX95 core reset to align with PHY powerup (Richard Zhu)
- Set SYS_AUX_PWR_DET to work around i.MX95 ERR051624 erratum: in
some cases, the controller can't exit 'L23 Ready' through Beacon or
PERST# deassertion (Richard Zhu)
- Clear GEN3_ZRXDC_NONCOMPL to work around i.MX95 ERR051586 erratum:
controller can't meet 2.5 GT/s ZRX-DC timing when operating at 8
GT/s, causing timeouts in L1 (Richard Zhu)
- Wait for i.MX95 PLL lock before enabling controller (Richard Zhu)
- Save/restore i.MX95 LUT for suspend/resume (Richard Zhu)
Mobiveil PCIe controller driver:
- Return bool (not int) for link-up check in
mobiveil_pab_ops.link_up() and layerscape-gen4, mobiveil (Hans
Zhang)
NVIDIA Tegra194 PCIe controller driver:
- Create debugfs directory for 'aspm_state_cnt' only when
CONFIG_PCIEASPM is enabled, since there are no other entries (Hans
Zhang)
Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:
- Add OF support for parsing DT 'eq-presets-<N>gts' property for lane
equalization presets (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)
- Read Maximum Link Width from the Link Capabilities register if DT
lacks 'num-lanes' property (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)
- Add Physical Layer 64 GT/s Capability ID and register offsets for
8, 32, and 64 GT/s lane equalization registers (Krishna Chaitanya
Chundru)
- Add generic dwc support for configuring lane equalization presets
(Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)
- Add DT and driver support for PCIe on IPQ5018 SoC (Nitheesh Sekar)
Renesas R-Car PCIe controller driver:
- Describe endpoint BAR 4 as being fixed size (Jerome Brunet)
- Document how to obtain R-Car V4H (r8a779g0) controller firmware
(Yoshihiro Shimoda)
Rockchip PCIe controller driver:
- Reorder rockchip_pci_core_rsts because
reset_control_bulk_deassert() deasserts in reverse order, to fix a
link training regression (Jensen Huang)
- Mark RK3399 as being capable of raising INTx interrupts (Niklas
Cassel)
Rockchip DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Check only PCIE_LINKUP, not LTSSM status, to determine whether the
link is up (Shawn Lin)
- Increase N_FTS (used in L0s->L0 transitions) and enable ASPM L0s
for Root Complex and Endpoint modes (Shawn Lin)
- Hide the broken ATS Capability in rockchip_pcie_ep_init() instead
of rockchip_pcie_ep_pre_init() so it stays hidden after PERST#
resets non-sticky registers (Shawn Lin)
- Call phy_power_off() before phy_exit() in rockchip_pcie_phy_deinit()
(Diederik de Haas)
Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Set PORT_LOGIC_LINK_WIDTH to one lane to make initial link training
more robust; this will not affect the intended link width if all
lanes are functional (Wenbin Yao)
- Return bool (not int) for link-up check in dw_pcie_ops.link_up()
and armada8k, dra7xx, dw-rockchip, exynos, histb, keembay,
keystone, kirin, meson, qcom, qcom-ep, rcar_gen4, spear13xx,
tegra194, uniphier, visconti (Hans Zhang)
- Add debugfs support for exposing DWC device-specific PTM context
(Manivannan Sadhasivam)
TI J721E PCIe driver:
- Make j721e buildable as a loadable and removable module (Siddharth
Vadapalli)
- Fix j721e host/endpoint dependencies that result in link failures
in some configs (Arnd Bergmann)
Device tree bindings:
- Add qcom DT binding for 'global' interrupt (PCIe controller and
link-specific events) for ipq8074, ipq8074-gen3, ipq6018, sa8775p,
sc7280, sc8180x sdm845, sm8150, sm8250, sm8350 (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
- Add qcom DT binding for 8 MSI SPI interrupts for msm8998, ipq8074,
ipq8074-gen3, ipq6018 (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Add dw rockchip DT binding for rk3576 and rk3562 (Kever Yang)
- Correct indentation and style of examples in brcm,stb-pcie,
cdns,cdns-pcie-ep, intel,keembay-pcie-ep, intel,keembay-pcie,
microchip,pcie-host, rcar-pci-ep, rcar-pci-host, xilinx-versal-cpm

and IPQ9574 (Varadarajan Narayanan)
- Convert v3,v360epc-pci from text to DT schema binding (Rob Herring)
- Change microchip,pcie-host DT binding to be 'dma-noncoherent' since
PolarFire may be configured that way (Conor Dooley)
Miscellaneous:
- Drop 'pci' suffix from intel_mid_pci.c filename to match similar
files (Andy Shevchenko)
- All platforms with PCI have an MMU, so add PCI Kconfig dependency
on MMU to simplify build testing and avoid inadvertent build
regressions (Arnd Bergmann)

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse
Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:
- Remove tmp page copying in writeback path (Joanne).
This removes ~300 lines and with that a lot of complexity related to
avoiding reclaim related deadlock. The old mechanism is replaced with
a mapping flag that tells the MM not to block reclaim waiting for
writeback to complete. The MM parts have been reviewed/acked by
respective maintainers.
- Convert more code to handle large folios (Joanne). This still just
adds the code to deal with large folios and does not enable them yet.
- Allow invalidating all cached lookups atomically (Luis Henriques).
This feature is useful for CernVMFS, which currently does this
iteratively.
- Align write prefaulting in fuse with generic one (Dave Hansen)
- Fix race causing invalid data to be cached when setting attributes on
different nodes of a distributed fs (Guang Yuan Wu)
- Update documentation for passthrough (Chen Linxuan)
- Add fdinfo about the device number associated with an opened
/dev/fuse instance (Chen Linxuan)
- Increase readdir buffer size (Miklos). This depends on a patch to VFS
readdir code that was already merged through Christians tree.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of
creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces
the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide
this.
- "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of
largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up
and better prepare us for future work.
- "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory
Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical
memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory
block size.
- "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from
Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more
sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive
compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's
memory consumption was dramatic.
- "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng
Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to
this part of our swap handling code.
- "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin
adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this
time we can alter only "system call information that are used by
strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall
arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.
- "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from
Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get
at the info about guard regions.
- "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan
implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because
validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David
Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current
decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of
using more current facilities.
- "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman
Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping
code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are
enabled for ARM.
- "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky
ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as
it already is for user pgtables.
This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks
to protect page tables". This change does result in various
architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where
it is anticipated to occur.
- "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice
Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures.
- "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo
Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've
been missing for 15 years.
- "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from
SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.
Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we
batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from
Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation.
stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and
