When geneve_configure() allocates a new geneve_config structure via
geneve_config_alloc() and assigns it to geneve->cfg before calling
register_netdevice(), if register_netdevice() fails early (for example,
in dev_get_valid_name() due to an invalid or duplicate interface name),
register_netdevice() exits without calling dev->priv_destructor.
The caller (e.g. rtnl_newlink()) subsequently calls free_netdev(), which
frees the net_device structure directly via kvfree() because reg_state is
NETREG_UNINITIALIZED, bypassing dev->priv_destructor (geneve_free_dev()).
As a result, the newly allocated geneve_config and its per-CPU dst_cache
are leaked.
Fix this by invoking geneve_free_dev(dev) directly on the error path of
register_netdevice(). Since geneve_free_dev() sets geneve->cfg to NULL,
this call is fully idempotent and safe even if register_netdevice()
failed on a later error path that already ran dev->priv_destructor.

FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES requires that all blocks in the requested range
end up as written extents with zeroed content. For unaligned edges that
were partial-zeroed in dirty unwritten or delalloc state, the buffer
is left dirty while the underlying extent may not yet be converted to
written. As a result, a subsequent SYNC write to this range would still
trigger metadata changes, which violates the semantics of WRITE_ZEROES.
Fix this by calling filemap_write_and_wait_range() for partial-zeroed
edges to flush out the zeroed data and ensure the extent conversion
is complete.

FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES requires that all blocks in the requested range
end up as written extents with zeroed content. For unaligned edges that
were already allocated, ext4_zero_partial_blocks() zeros them directly.
However, for unaligned edges whose underlying extent is a clean
unwritten extent or a hole, the extent type remains unwritten after
partial zeroing, which does not align with the semantics of
WRITE_ZEROES.
Therefore, when ext4_zero_partial_blocks() skips partial zeroing, it
indicates that the corresponding edges are clean unwritten extents or
holes. In this case, we need to expand the aligned allocation range
outward to cover such edges, so that ext4_alloc_file_blocks() can
correctly allocate blocks for the unaligned range. Edges that were
partial-zeroed (i.e., written or dirty) are left untouched.

ext4_load_tail_bh() returns NULL for both holes and clean unwritten
buffers, but the conditions that lead to this are not obvious from the
code alone. Document this behavior to clarify the return value, so that
readers do not mistakenly assume that only holes result in a NULL

Also update the inline comment following the ext4_get_block() call to
reflect this, and note that a lookup-only get_block (without
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CREATE) never sets BH_Mapped for clean unwritten
extents, which is why a clean unwritten bh falls through to the

In ext4_zero_range(), move the ext4_zero_partial_blocks() call, which
handles unaligned edges, into the same branch where the unaligned range
is preallocated, immediately after ext4_alloc_file_blocks(). This is
safe because there is no dependency between partial block handling and
the subsequent full block handling.
This change will be used by later patches that handle unaligned
FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES operations, which will need to check the partial

ext4_load_tail_bh() ignores the return value of ext4_get_block(), so an
I/O or allocation failure is silently discarded. buffer_mapped(bh) stays
false and the function returns NULL, which callers such as
ext4_block_do_zero_range() treat as "nothing to do" and return success.
This can mask real failures during zero-range, truncate, or punch-hole
operations, potentially exposing stale data if the block was not
actually a hole and needed zeroing. So propagate the error to the
callers.

net: dsa: realtek: rtl8365mb: add SGMII/HSGMII support for RTL8367S
The RTL8367S is a 5+2 port switch from the same family as the
RTL8365MB-VC already supported by this driver. Its chip info table
entry declares SGMII and HSGMII on external interface 1, but the
driver so far only implements RGMII, leaving boards that wire the
switch to the CPU over the SerDes without a working CPU port.
This series implements both modes. The configuration sequence and the
SerDes tuning parameters are derived from the GPL-licensed Realtek
rtl8367c vendor driver, as distributed in the Mercusys MR80X GPL code
drop, and cross-checked against the real register sequence captured at
runtime by chainloading a custom U-Boot ahead of the stock firmware
and logging the live SerDes accesses on hardware.
The vendor driver brings up the SerDes by loading firmware into the
switch's embedded DW8051 microcontroller. Analysis of that firmware
(by Luiz Angelo Daros de Luca) showed it only performs a SerDes
data-path reset right after the SerDes reset is deasserted, and then
runs a link-polling loop that writes the external interface force
registers -- duplicating, and racing with, the link management phylink
already performs. This series therefore keeps the DW8051 disabled and
performs the one necessary action (the data-path reset via the SerDes
BMCR register) directly in the driver, avoiding both the race and a
dependency on a redistributable firmware blob.
The SerDes is modelled as a phylink PCS: mac_select_pcs() hands the
SerDes interfaces to a phylink_pcs whose pcs_config()/pcs_link_up()
ops own the SerDes register sequence, keeping it out of the MAC
operations. In-band autonegotiation is not implemented; the link is
forced (fixed-link or conventional PHY), as for RGMII, and the PCS
reports this to phylink through pcs_inband_caps().
Patch 1 adds the SerDes indirect access helpers, the PCS and SGMII
(1 Gbps) support. Patch 2 extends the PCS to HSGMII (2.5 Gbps), which
phylink represents as 2500base-x.
Tested on a Mercusys MR80X v2.20 (RTL8367S wired to the SoC over the
SerDes), in both SGMII and HSGMII modes with a fixed-link device tree
description: link bring-up verified across cold boots, warm reboots,
module reloads and link down/up cycles, with sustained traffic and no
CRC/symbol errors. The SerDes pause enables were verified by driving
congestion toward a 100M user port and observing pause frame emission
on the CPU port (dot3OutPauseFrames) toggle with the SDS_MISC
TXFC/RXFC bits. The port 6 rate limiters were verified to be live by
lowering them to 100 Mbps at runtime and observing iperf3 throughput
across the CPU port clamp accordingly in each direction, recovering
once the maximum was restored. The HSGMII link is confirmed running
at 2.5G at the register level (SoC uniphy mode and gmac clocks);
per-direction throughput could not be pushed past ~1 Gbps on this
board because the SoC side is driven by the IPQ5018 SSDK and the
user-facing PHY is 1G, so full 2.5G line-rate throughput remains
unverified on my hardware. Independently, >1 Gbps aggregate HSGMII
throughput (~2 Gbps with multiple clients) has been observed on an
RTL8367S-based Mercusys MR85X running an OpenWrt backport of this
series with the rate limiters raised (see patch 2).
The RTL8367SB also declares SGMII and HSGMII in its chip info entry
and therefore gains both modes as well. The vendor driver drives the
two chips through the same code path, keyed only on the chip option
register (both report chip id 0x6367), so this is expected to work
there too, but I have no RTL8367SB hardware to confirm it.

In addition to SGMII, the RTL8367S SerDes also supports HSGMII, which
carries 2.5 Gbps with the same signaling as SGMII at 2.5x clock rate.
The chip info table already declares HSGMII as a supported interface
mode for external interface 1.
Extend the SerDes PCS to handle HSGMII, which phylink represents as
2500base-x:
- Select the HSGMII SerDes tuning parameters and external interface
mode, and mux the SerDes to MAC8 in HSGMII mode, from pcs_config()
according to the interface. The parameters are again lifted from the
GPL-licensed Realtek rtl8367c vendor driver, and again only cover
the tuning variant for a non-zero chip option, so the mode is gated
on the option probed at setup.
- Advertise 2500base-x and MAC_2500FD on ports whose external
interface supports HSGMII.
- Accept SPEED_2500 in the forced link configuration. The MAC speed
field has no 2.5 Gbps value: the rate is determined by the HSGMII
SerDes configuration, and the vendor driver programs the 1 Gbps
value here, so do the same.
- Raise the port 6 ingress and egress rate limiters to their maximum
at setup time, as the vendor switch init does unconditionally for
the whole chip family. The chip resets them to 0x1FFFF (~1.048 Gbps
in units of 8 Kbps), which caps the aggregate HSGMII throughput at
roughly 1 Gbps. The vendor documentation describes the reset
default as disabling the limiter, but the cap is real: on an
RTL8367S-based Mercusys MR85X running an OpenWrt backport of this
series, several clients on 1 Gbps user ports were limited to about
1.02 Gbps combined across the HSGMII CPU port until these limiters
were raised, after which throughput reached about 2 Gbps [1]. The
related HSGMII scheduler line rate (LINE_RATE_HSG_H) is already set
to its maximum by the common init jam table.
Tested on a Mercusys MR80X v2.20, where the RTL8367S is connected to
the SoC over HSGMII.

The RTL8367S can mux its embedded SerDes to external interface 1,
which is typically used to connect the switch to a CPU port. The chip
info table already declares SGMII as a supported interface mode for
this chip, but the driver only implements RGMII so far.
Implement SGMII support as a phylink PCS, with the configuration
sequence derived from the GPL-licensed Realtek rtl8367c vendor driver
as distributed in the Mercusys MR80X GPL code drop:
- Add accessors for the SerDes indirect access registers (SDS_INDACS),
through which the SerDes internal registers are reached.
- Register a phylink_pcs for the SerDes, selected from mac_select_pcs
for the SGMII interface, so the SerDes handling lives in the PCS
operations rather than in the MAC operations.
- Probe the SerDes tuning variant from the chip option register once
at setup. The vendor driver keeps two sets of SerDes tuning
parameters and selects between them based on this option; only the
variant for a non-zero option (which all RTL8367S parts seen so far
report) has been validated on hardware, so the SerDes interface
modes are only advertised in that case. An unsupported variant thus
fails at phylink validation time instead of at link configuration
time.
- Keep the embedded DW8051 microcontroller in reset and disabled. The
vendor driver loads firmware into it to manage the SerDes link, but
analysis of that firmware shows it only duplicates the link
management phylink already performs: it polls the port status and
writes the external interface force registers behind the driver's
back.
- Clear the line rate bypass bit for the external interface, tune the
SerDes with the vendor-prescribed parameters, mux the SerDes to MAC8
in SGMII mode and only then take the SerDes out of reset, as the
vendor driver does.
- After deasserting the SerDes reset, reset the SerDes data path via
the SerDes BMCR register to flush the FIFOs and resync the PLL.
This mirrors what the vendor firmware does right after deasserting
the SerDes reset, and ensures a clean link state from cold boot.
- Force the SGMII link parameters (link, speed, duplex) in the SDS_MISC
register from pcs_link_up(). SGMII in-band autonegotiation is not
implemented, so only fixed-link and conventional PHY setups are
supported, just like RGMII. This is reported to phylink through
pcs_inband_caps() returning LINK_INBAND_DISABLE, so phylink never
selects an in-band-enabled negotiation mode for this PCS.
- Program the SerDes pause enables in SDS_MISC from the resolved
pause modes when forcing the MAC external interface in mac_link_up,
as the vendor driver does, rather than leaving whatever state the
boot firmware left there. Flow control testing shows these bits,
not the MAC force pause bits, gate pause on the SerDes external
interface. This is done in the MAC layer because pcs_link_up()
carries no pause information.
- Implement pcs_get_state() by reading the link status from the
SerDes, with the forced speed and duplex read back from SDS_MISC.
Although the supported fixed-link and conventional PHY setups do not
use it, the PCS owns the SerDes link state, and phylink consults
pcs_get_state() to track the physical link when operating in in-band
mode with autonegotiation disabled. The SerDes has no link interrupt
wired up, so the PCS sets its poll flag.
Tested on a Mercusys MR80X v2.20, where the RTL8367S is connected to
the SoC over SGMII.

The jbd2 shrinker currently accounts only checkpoint buffers that it
successfully releases against nr_to_scan. Busy buffers therefore do not
consume the scan budget.
If a checkpoint transaction contains mostly busy buffers, the shrinker
can scan its entire checkpoint list while holding journal->j_list_lock.
Large checkpoint lists can result in excessive lock hold times and leave
other CPUs spinning on j_list_lock, causing soft lockups or RCU stalls.
Pass nr_to_scan into journal_shrink_one_cp_list() and decrement it for
every buffer examined, including busy buffers. Pass NULL from checkpoint
cleanup paths so their existing full-list behavior is preserved.
This restores the scan-budget semantics that existed before
journal_shrink_one_cp_list() was changed to always scan a complete
checkpoint list.

journal_shrink_one_cp_list() skips busy checkpoint buffers when called
with JBD2_SHRINK_BUSY_SKIP. The continue statement on this path also
skips the need_resched() check at the end of the loop body.
Consequently, when a checkpoint list contains mostly busy buffers, the
shrinker can walk the entire list while holding journal->j_list_lock,
even when a reschedule has been requested. Large checkpoint lists under
memory pressure can therefore cause long lock hold times and leave other
CPUs spinning on j_list_lock, resulting in soft lockups or RCU stalls.
Route the busy-buffer path through the need_resched() check so that the
shrinker can release j_list_lock and reschedule promptly, restoring
parity with the clean-buffer path, which already checks need_resched().
This does not change which checkpoint buffers are eligible for removal.

Add a helper that drops an inode reference only if the caller does not
hold the last one. Returns true if the reference was dropped, false
otherwise.
This is useful for filesystems that need to release inode references
in contexts where triggering final iput (and thus eviction) would be
unsafe due to lock ordering constraints. The caller can check the
return value and defer the final iput to a safe context.
Unlike iput_not_last() which BUG_ON's if called with the last ref,
this variant is designed to be called speculatively.

Now that ext4_put_ea_inode() handles deferred iput safely for all cases
(using iput_if_not_last + embedded llist_node), the ea_inode_array
mechanism for batching deferred iputs is redundant.
Remove:
- ext4_expand_inode_array() and ext4_xattr_inode_array_free()
- struct ext4_xattr_inode_array and EIA_INCR/EIA_MASK defines
- ea_inode_array parameter from ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all(),
ext4_xattr_release_block(), and ext4_xattr_delete_inode()
- ea_inode_array variable from ext4_evict_inode()
Instead, ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all() now calls ext4_put_ea_inode()
directly after processing each EA inode. This simplifies the code
by eliminating multi-layer parameter threading and removes the need
for callers to manage array lifetime.

Convert all iput() calls on EA inodes in xattr code paths to use
ext4_put_ea_inode(). This establishes a uniform rule: every EA inode
reference release in ext4 xattr code goes through ext4_put_ea_inode(),
eliminating the need to analyze each call site individually for lock
safety.
Converted sites:
- ext4_xattr_inode_get() read path
- ext4_xattr_inode_inc_ref_all() main loop and cleanup path
- ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all() error paths
- ext4_xattr_inode_create() error path
- ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find() mismatch path
- ext4_xattr_inode_lookup_create() out_err
- ext4_xattr_set_entry() old_ea_inode
- ext4_xattr_block_set() new block path, cleanup, and tmp_inode
- ext4_xattr_ibody_set() error and success paths
- ext4_xattr_delete_inode() quota loop
For most of these, iput_if_not_last() will succeed (the EA inode has
other references) making the overhead a single atomic operation.

Calling iput() on EA inodes while holding xattr_sem or a jbd2 handle
can trigger write_inode_now() -> ext4_writepages() -> s_writepages_rwsem,
creating a lock ordering issue during mount (!SB_ACTIVE).
Add ext4_put_ea_inode() which uses iput_if_not_last() as a fast path.
If this is not the last reference, it is dropped immediately. If this
is the last reference, the inode is linked onto a per-sb lock-free llist
via i_ea_iput_node (embedded in ext4_inode_info, sharing space with the
unused xattr_sem of EA inodes via a union) and a delayed worker
(1 jiffie) performs the final iput() in a clean context. This avoids
per-iput memory allocation.
Flush points ensure all pending EA inode evictions complete before
dependent resources become unavailable:
- ext4_put_super / failed_mount9: before quota shutdown
- failed_mount_wq: before freeing xattr caches
- failed_mount3a: before freeing shrinker (journal replay case)
- ext4_sync_fs: before remount-ro, freeze, or sync completes
Initialization is placed before journal loading since fast commit
replay may trigger evictions that call ext4_put_ea_inode().
Also moves init_rwsem(xattr_sem) from init_once to ext4_alloc_inode to
handle slab object reuse after the union field has been overwritten.

For casefolded encrypted directories ext4 stores an 8-byte hash trailer
after the name (EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES()), at an offset derived from
de->name_len. On the sb_no_casefold_compat_fallback() path ext4_match()
reads that trailer, but ext4_search_dir()'s by-hand pre-check only tests
de->name + de->name_len <= dlimit, which proves the name fits, not the
rounded trailer. A crafted entry whose name ends at the block boundary
passes the check while EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES(de) lands past the block end,
so ext4_match() reads out of bounds on an ordinary lookup. KASAN reports
it as a use-after-free when the page after the directory block holds a
freed object:

ext4_init_orphan_info() reads orphan file blocks with ext4_bread()
and stores the returned buffer_head in oi->of_binfo[i].ob_bh.
If ext4_bread() succeeds but the orphan block magic or checksum
validation fails, the function jumps to out_free. However, the old
out_free loop starts releasing buffers from i - 1, so the current
buffer_head at index i is skipped.
This leaks the buffer_head reference obtained by ext4_bread() on the
bad magic and bad checksum error paths.
Fix this by tracking the number of successfully read buffer_heads and
releasing exactly those buffer_heads on the error path.

Teach libarena's BPF atomic primitives to use compiler builtins for
load-acquire and store-release when Clang advertises
__BPF_FEATURE_LOAD_ACQ_STORE_REL. Older compilers continue to use the
existing barrier-based fallback.
Notably, as BPF programs begin running on arm64, it is better to use the
more appropriate variants since we can no longer rely on x86 TSO ordering.
Commit 880442305a ("bpf: Introduce load-acquire and store-release instructions")

compiling with compilers supporting these instructions. We have
relatively recent kernel version requirements in libarena anyway, and
have not cut first release, hence declare such a dependency.

ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea() can retry the expansion with

caller. Clear error before retrying so a successful fallback expansion
returns success.

ext4_fc_replay() stops replaying fast commit tags only when a tag
handler returns a negative error. However, ext4_fc_replay_add_range()
and ext4_fc_replay_del_range() currently return 0 from their common
exit paths even after internal failures.
This hides errors from ext4_fc_record_modified_inode(),
ext4_map_blocks(), ext4_find_extent(), ext4_ext_insert_extent(),
ext4_ext_replay_update_ex(), and ext4_ext_remove_space(). As a result,
a failed ADD_RANGE or DEL_RANGE replay can be treated as successful and
the replay code may continue with subsequent fast commit tags.
This is particularly problematic for DEL_RANGE because it may already
have marked blocks as free before ext4_ext_remove_space() fails. If the
error is swallowed, replay may continue from a partially applied range
operation.
Return the saved error from the common exit paths and make the

When running 'iw dev wlan0 survey dump' the values for the channel busy
time have the same sequence across bands. This is caused by indexing
into the ath12k survey array using a band-local index rather than the
global index passed by mac80211. This results in surveys for 5 GHz and 6
GHz channels returning values from 2.4 GHz slots, making the survey
unusable on those bands. Further, there are redundant survey slots for
multi-radio/single-phy instances.
Fix by moving the survey data into ath12k_hw so multiple radios under a
single wiphy share one table, and index into it using the global
mac80211 index. A new spinlock in ath12k_hw serialises access to the
survey array, which is now shared across all radios under a single hw.

Currently, the station always follows the listen interval regardless of
the DTIM value. The DTIM function does not work as expected. The default
value of the listen interval is 5 so that the STA wakes up every 500ms
when power save is on. This can cause a data transmission delay.
Set the DTIM policy to DTIM stick mode so that the station follows the AP
DTIM interval rather than the listen interval, which is set in the peer
assoc command. DTIM stick mode is preferable per the firmware team's request.
Apply this only for STA vdevs and only when STA power save is supported, to
avoid affecting unsupported targets and P2P client vdevs.

Replace the bare TODO comment in the SMPS configuration handler
with documentation explaining why the driver accepts but does not
act on SMPS mode changes.
The AR9170 advertises SM_PS disabled (both chains always active)
in its HT capabilities. While mac80211 may still send SMPS
configuration requests, implementing static or dynamic SMPS would
require firmware support for per-chain enable/disable that the
AR9170 firmware (v1.9.9) does not provide.

'struct ath12k_dp_arch_ops' is not modified in this driver.
Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so
increases overall security, especially when the structure holds some
function pointers.
On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example:
Before:
======
text data bss dec hex filename
6318 3384 0 9702 25e6 drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/wifi7/dp.o
After:
=====
text data bss dec hex filename

ath12k_wmi_scan_req_arg stores scan parameters in CPU-native byte order,
while ath12k_wmi_send_scan_start_cmd() writes them into a WMI command
buffer whose contents must be in little-endian format. The existing code
copies the channel list and writes s_ssid and hint_bssid related values to
the command buffer without endian conversion. As a result, scan requests
contain invalid parameters on big-endian systems and fail.
Convert the channel list as well as the s_ssid and hint_bssid related
values to little-endian before writing them to the WMI command buffer. This
preserves the existing behaviour on little-endian systems while fixing scan
requests on big-endian architectures.

Currently, in ath11k_wmi_send_scan_start_cmd(), the logic to populate
the hint_bssid copies the BSSID in the wrong direction, from the
firmware message to the argument buffer. Swap the parameters so that
the BSSID is correctly populated in the firmware message from the
argument buffer.
This issue was reported on ath12k, but exists in ath11k as well.
Compile tested only.

Currently, the Q6 region contains a read-only firmware region along with
the BDF_MEM_REGION_TYPE and HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE memory areas. The firmware
expects these writable memory regions to be assigned after the Q6 read-only
section.
However, the ath12k driver currently allocates the HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE
starting from the base of the Q6 region, which includes the read-only
firmware area. As a result, the allocated memory regions overlap with the
read-only section, causing the firmware to assert during QMI memory
allocation. The Q6 memory region layout is as follows:
Q6 Reserved Memory
+--------------------------------------+
| |
| Read-only Firmware Region |
| (Q6 RO Region) |
| |
+--------------------------------------+ <--- bdf_addr_offset
| Writable Memory Region |
| (BDF + HOST_DDR allocations) |
| |
+--------------------------------------+
Fix this by allocating the required memory regions only after the end of
the read-only region in the Q6 address space. The bdf_addr_offset parameter
indicates where the writable region starts. Both HOST_DDR and BDF regions
are allocated sequentially after this offset, with each region placed
immediately after the previous one to avoid gaps and overlaps.
