commit 5e700b384e upstream.
The cros_ec_uart_probe() function calls devm_serdev_device_open() before
it calls serdev_device_set_client_ops(). This can trigger a NULL pointer
dereference:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
...
Call Trace:

? ttyport_receive_buf
A simplified version of crashing code is as follows:
static inline size_t serdev_controller_receive_buf(struct serdev_controller *ctrl,
const u8 *data,
size_t count)
{
struct serdev_device *serdev = ctrl->serdev;
if (!serdev || !serdev->ops->receive_buf) // CRASH!
return 0;
return serdev->ops->receive_buf(serdev, data, count);
}
It assumes that if SERPORT_ACTIVE is set and serdev exists, serdev->ops
will also exist. This conflicts with the existing cros_ec_uart_probe()
logic, as it first calls devm_serdev_device_open() (which sets
SERPORT_ACTIVE), and only later sets serdev->ops via
serdev_device_set_client_ops().
Commit 01f95d42b8 ("platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: fix race
condition") attempted to fix a similar race condition, but while doing
so, made the window of error for this race condition to happen much
wider.
Attempt to fix the race condition again, making sure we fully setup
before calling devm_serdev_device_open().

[ Upstream commit 434e5781d8 ]
ACER Vivobook Flip (TP401NAS) virtual intel switch is implemented as
follow:
Device (VGBI)
{
Name (_HID, EisaId ("INT33D6") ...
Name (VBDS, Zero)
Method (_STA, 0, Serialized) // _STA: Status ...
Method (VBDL, 0, Serialized)

}
Method (VGBS, 0, Serialized)
{
Return (VBDS) /* \_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.EC0_.VGBI.VBDS */
}
...
}
By default VBDS is set to 0. At boot it is set to clamshell (bit 6 set)
only after method VBDL is executed.
Since VBDL is now evaluated in the probe routine later, after the device
is registered, the retrieved value of VBDS was still 0 ("tablet mode")
when setting up the virtual switch.
Make sure to evaluate VGBS after VBDL, to ensure the
convertible boots in clamshell mode, the expected default.

On Goldmont p2sb_bar() only ever gets called for 2 devices, the actual P2SB
devfn 13,0 and the SPI controller which is part of the P2SB, devfn 13,2.
But the current p2sb code tries to cache BAR0 info for all of
devfn 13,0 to 13,7 . This involves calling pci_scan_single_device()
for device 13 functions 0-7 and the hw does not seem to like
pci_scan_single_device() getting called for some of the other hidden
devices. E.g. on an ASUS VivoBook D540NV-GQ065T this leads to continuous
ACPI errors leading to high CPU usage.
Fix this by only caching BAR0 info and thus only calling
pci_scan_single_device() for the P2SB and the SPI controller.

Randomly a Lenovo Z13 will trigger a kernel warning traceback from this

```

This happens because thinkpad-acpi always assumes that
convert_dytc_to_profile() successfully updated the profile. On the
contrary a condition can occur that when dytc_profile_refresh() is called
the profile doesn't get updated as there is a -EOPNOTSUPP branch.
Catch this situation and avoid updating the profile. Also log this into

On some devices the ACPI name of the touchscreen is e.g. either
MSSL1680:00 or MSSL1680:01 depending on the BIOS version.
This happens for example on the "Chuwi Hi8 Air" tablet where the initial
commit's ts_data uses "MSSL1680:00" but the tablets from the github issue
and linux-hardware.org probe linked below both use "MSSL1680:01".
Replace the strcmp() match on ts_data->acpi_name with a strstarts()
check to allow using a partial match on just the ACPI HID of "MSSL1680"
and change the ts_data->acpi_name for the "Chuwi Hi8 Air" accordingly
to fix the touchscreen not working on models where it is "MSSL1680:01".
Note this drops the length check for I2C_NAME_SIZE. This never was
necessary since the ACPI names used are never more then 11 chars and
I2C_NAME_SIZE is 20 so the replaced strncmp() would always stop long
before reaching I2C_NAME_SIZE.

[ Upstream commit 8cbc756b80 ]
Starting from Linux 5.16 kernel, Tx timeout mechanism was added
in the virtio_net driver which prints the "Tx timeout" warning
message when a packet stays in Tx queue for too long. Below is an
example of the reported message:
"[494105.316739] virtio_net virtio1 tmfifo_net0: TX timeout on
queue: 0, sq: output.0, vq: 0×1, name: output.0, usecs since
last trans: 3079892256".
This issue could happen when external host driver which drains the
FIFO is restared, stopped or upgraded. To avoid such confusing
"Tx timeout" messages, this commit adds logic to drop the outstanding
Tx packet if it's not able to transmit in two seconds due to Tx FIFO
full, which can be considered as congestion or out-of-resource drop.
This commit also handles the special case that the packet is half-
transmitted into the Tx FIFO. In such case, the packet is discarded
with remaining length stored in vring->rem_padding. So paddings with
zeros can be sent out when Tx space is available to maintain the
integrity of the packet format. The padded packet will be dropped on
the receiving side.

commit 5913320eb0 upstream.
p2sb_bar() unhides P2SB device to get resources from the device. It
guards the operation by locking pci_rescan_remove_lock so that parallel
rescans do not find the P2SB device. However, this lock causes deadlock
when PCI bus rescan is triggered by /sys/bus/pci/rescan. The rescan
locks pci_rescan_remove_lock and probes PCI devices. When PCI devices
call p2sb_bar() during probe, it locks pci_rescan_remove_lock again.
Hence the deadlock.
To avoid the deadlock, do not lock pci_rescan_remove_lock in p2sb_bar().
Instead, do the lock at fs_initcall. Introduce p2sb_cache_resources()
for fs_initcall which gets and caches the P2SB resources. At p2sb_bar(),
refer the cache and return to the caller.
Before operating the device at P2SB DEVFN for resource cache, check
that its device class is PCI_CLASS_MEMORY_OTHER 0x0580 that PCH
specifications define. This avoids unexpected operation to other devices
at the same DEVFN.

The sysfs callback functions such as show_domain_id() are written as if
they are going to be called by dev_attr_show() but as the above message
shows, they are instead called by kobj_attr_show(). kCFI checks that the
destination of an indirect jump has the exact same type as the prototype
of the function pointer it is called through and fails when they do not.
These callbacks are called through kobj_attr_show() because
uncore_root_kobj was initialized with kobject_create_and_add(), which
means uncore_root_kobj has a ->sysfs_ops of kobj_sysfs_ops from
kobject_create(), which uses kobj_attr_show() as its ->show() value.
The only reason there has not been a more noticeable problem until this
point is that 'struct kobj_attribute' and 'struct device_attribute' have
the same layout, so getting the callback from container_of() works the
same with either value.
Change all the callbacks and their uses to be compatible with
kobj_attr_show() and kobj_attr_store(), which resolves the kCFI failure
and allows the sysfs files to work properly.

The secure boot state of the BlueField SoC is represented by two bits:
0 = production state
1 = secure boot enabled
2 = non-secure (secure boot disabled)
3 = RMA state
There is also a single bit to indicate whether production keys or
development keys are being used when secure boot is enabled.
This single bit (specified by MLXBF_BOOTCTL_SB_DEV_MASK) only has
meaning if secure boot state equals 1 (secure boot enabled).
The secure boot states are as follows:
- “GA secured” is when secure boot is enabled with official production keys.
- “Secured (development)” is when secure boot is enabled with development keys.
Without this fix “GA Secured” is displayed on development cards which is
misleading. This patch updates the logic in "lifecycle_state_show()" to
handle the case where the SoC is configured for secure boot and is using
development keys.

amd_pmc_get_dram_size() is used to get the DRAM size information. But
in the current code, mailbox command to get the DRAM size info is sent
based on the values of dev->major and dev->minor.
But dev->major and dev->minor will have either junk or zero assigned to
them until at least once a call to amd_pmc_get_smu_version() is made
which ideally populates dev->major and dev->minor.
However, adding a amd_pmc_get_smu_version() call to
amd_pmc_get_dram_size() has a downside of elevating the boot times.
After talking to the PMFW team, it's understood that the "get dram
size" mbox command would only be supported on specific platforms (like
Mendocino) and not all. So, adjust getting DRAM size behavior such
that,
- if running on Rembrandt or Mendocino and the underlying PMFW knows
how to execute the "get dram size" command it shall give the custom
dram size.
- if the underlying FW does not report the dram size, we just proceed
further and assign the default dram size.
The simplest way to address this is to remove amd_pmc_get_dram_size()
function and directly call the "get dram size" command in the
amd_pmc_s2d_init().

Older Asus laptops change the backlight level themselves and then send
WMI events with different codes for different backlight levels.
The asus-wmi.c code maps the entire range of codes reported on
brightness down keypresses to an internal ASUS_WMI_BRN_DOWN code:
define NOTIFY_BRNUP_MIN 0x11
define NOTIFY_BRNUP_MAX 0x1f
define NOTIFY_BRNDOWN_MIN 0x20
define NOTIFY_BRNDOWN_MAX 0x2e

code = ASUS_WMI_BRN_UP;
else if (code >= NOTIFY_BRNDOWN_MIN && code <= NOTIFY_BRNDOWN_MAX)
code = ASUS_WMI_BRN_DOWN;
This mapping is causing issues on new laptop models which actually
send 0x2b events for printscreen presses and 0x2c events for
capslock presses, which get translated into spurious brightness-down
presses.
This mapping is really only necessary when asus-wmi has registered
a backlight-device for backlight control. In this case the mapping
was used to decide to filter out the keypresss since in this case
the firmware has already modified the brightness itself and instead
of reporting a keypress asus-wmi will just report the new brightness
value to userspace.
OTOH when the firmware does not adjust the brightness itself then
it seems to always report 0x2e for brightness-down presses and
0x2f for brightness up presses independent of the actual brightness
level. So in this case the mapping of the code is not necessary
and this translation actually leads to spurious brightness-down
presses being send to userspace when pressing printscreen or capslock.
Modify asus_wmi_handle_event_code() to only do the mapping
when using asus-wmi backlight control to fix the spurious
brightness-down presses.

The plan is disable the 0x11-0x2e special mapping on laptops
where asus-wmi does not register a backlight-device to avoid
the spurious brightness-down keypresses. New laptops always send
0x2e for brightness-down presses, change the special internal
ASUS_WMI_BRN_DOWN value from 0x20 to 0x2e to match this in
preparation for fixing the spurious brightness-down presses.
This change does not have any functional impact since all
of 0x20 - 0x2e is mapped to ASUS_WMI_BRN_DOWN first and only
then checked against the keymap code and the new 0x2e
value is still in the 0x20 - 0x2e range.
