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

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, 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.

ath12k_qmi_assign_target_mem_chunk() uses a large switch-case to handle
both memory region identification and allocation for each memory request
type, leading to redundant allocation logic.
Refactor this by introducing ath12k_qmi_get_mem_reg_name() to map memory
request types to their corresponding reserved memory region names.

The driver currently retrieves reserved memory regions using index-based
lookup, which depends on the ordering of reserved-memory nodes in the
device tree. Since different platforms define these regions in varying
orders and combinations, this approach is not compatible and can result
in incorrect memory region access.
Switch to looking up memory regions by name instead of index so it does
not depend on node order.
Use names already defined in qcom,ipq5332-wifi.yaml, so there are no
backward compatibility issues.

Currently when running 128 clients UDP DL test in 5 GHz HE80 (NSS 2x2),
firmware uses the default max MSDU count (16K MSDUs). This lower limit
causes the firmware to compute a smaller TQM drop threshold, aggregate
packets at a reduced rate, and results in increased packet drops with
TQM drop threshold as the completion reason.
To fix this issue, set WMI_PDEV_PARAM_SET_CONG_CTRL_MAX_MSDUS to the TX
descriptor count using ath12k_wmi_pdev_set_param(). This increases the
TQM drop threshold, reduces drop events, and improves throughput from
~722 Mbps to ~1060 Mbps with 1200 Mbps ingress.
Add a new HW capability flag (supports_cong_ctrl_max_msdus) and enable
the WMI parameter only on supported platforms.

In the ath12k driver, the BDF_MEM_REGION_TYPE address is derived by
adding a fixed bdf_addr_offset to the WCSS Q6 region base address.
The current offset (0xC00000) works only when the Q6 region contains
the IPQ5332 ucode alone. On some IPQ5332 platform variants, additional
devices share the same WCSS Q6 processor and place their firmware
ucode in the same Q6 region. This results in multiple ucode sections
within the region, and the existing offset can cause the BDF memory
region to overlap with firmware read-only sections, which can lead to
firmware crash and driver boot failure.
Increase the bdf_addr_offset to 0x1A00000, determined by analyzing
firmware memory maps across all known IPQ5332 platform variants. This
value represents the upper bound of the largest combined firmware and
ensures all IPQ5332 variants can allocate the BDF region safely without
overlapping firmware regions.

QCC2072 firmware interprets the MLO_LINK_ADD and MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE
flags to control the link state during MLO vdev start. MLO_LINK_ADD
indicates that a link is being added, while MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE specifies
that the link should become active during the start.
When an association link is added without setting MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE,
the firmware may transition the link into a suspended state. In this
case, authentication frames transmitted by the host can be dropped,
leading to repeated authentication retries and eventual timeout,
for example:
wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 1/3)
wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 2/3)
wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 3/3)
wlp1s0: authentication with <AP> timed out
Avoid triggering this behavior by setting the MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE flag
when MLO_ASSOC_LINK is set, which tells the firmware that the current
vdev must not enter suspend mode
Note that this change relies on firmware behavior observed on the QCC2072
platform. The firmware on WCN7850 and QCN9274 does not use the
MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE flag, so this change is effectively a no-op on those
platforms

When an error occurs during RX packet processing (e.g., MSDU done
failure), the driver sets rx_confused and drops all subsequent RX
packets until a Wi-Fi ON/OFF cycle clears the flag. This can leave
the device in a bad state where it cannot process RX data traffic.
Instead of leaving the device in such a state, trigger hardware
recovery so that such an error state can be reset and the device
can function again normally.

BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __ext4_check_dir_entry+0x5ef/0x820

</TASK>
KASAN reports use-after-free because the out-of-bounds access lands in an
adjacent freed page. The directory buffer itself is still referenced.
ext4_dir_llseek() invalidates the directory cookie so that ext4_readdir()
rescans directory entries from the start of the block. The rescan checks
only the lower bound of rec_len before advancing. A corrupted rec_len can
therefore place the offset where the block has insufficient space for a
complete directory entry. The rescan itself may dereference that truncated
entry, or the main loop may pass it to __ext4_check_dir_entry(). The latter
reads de->rec_len before validating the range. For example:
block offset 0 4092 4096
|---- de1.rec_len = 4092 -----|----|
de2.inode
| de2.rec_len
^ OOB, reported as UAF
de2 starts at offset 4092 in this 4 KiB block. Its four-byte inode fits in
the block, but its rec_len starts at offset 4096 and crosses the boundary.
The minimum safe length is inode-dependent. Encrypted and casefolded
directory entries need eight additional hash bytes, while a valid metadata
checksum tail is only 12 bytes.
Cache the metadata checksum feature state and derive the minimum directory
entry length from the on-disk format. Use it to bound both the rescan and
the offset passed to the main loop. Report an offset in a truncated block
tail and skip the remainder of the block, while continuing to accept an
offset exactly at the block boundary.

After implementing bitwise flags for tracking the inline data write
state in the address space fsdata parameter, the CONVERT_INLINE_DATA
state flag is left unused and can be removed.
Perform this clean-up by:
1) Deleting the CONVERT_INLINE_DATA definition from ext4.h.
2) Removing the void **fsdata argument from both the forward
declaration and the definition of the internal helper
ext4_da_convert_inline_data_to_extent().
3) Removing the void **fsdata argument from the declaration and
definition of ext4_generic_write_inline_data() and updating
the caller ext4_try_to_write_inline_data() and the internal
re-alloc retry logic accordingly.
4) Updating ext4_da_write_begin() to call
ext4_generic_write_inline_data() without the fsdata parameter.

Instead of checking the live inode state (ext4_has_inline_data(inode)
and ext4_test_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA)) in the
write_end handlers, use the fsdata parameter of the address space
operations to explicitly pass down the state in which write_begin
prepared the write.
A concurrent thread (such as ext4_page_mkwrite()) can convert the
inline data to an extent between write_begin and write_end. If this
happens, the write_end handlers would previously miss the inline
write_end path and fall through to extent-based write_end logic.
However, since block buffers were never allocated in write_begin,
this resulted in NULL pointer dereferences or data loss because
folio_buffers(folio) was NULL.
Define EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE (4) as a bit flag (Bit 2), treating
fsdata as bitwise flags rather than mutually exclusive enums to keep
states of the write path independent. Communicate this state via
fsdata:
1) ext4_write_begin() and ext4_da_write_begin() set the
EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit in *fsdata via bitwise OR when an inline
write is successfully prepared.
2) On entry, ext4_write_begin() clears the EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit
to safely handle VFS retries (where generic_perform_write() bypasses
the fsdata initialization on its retry jump).
3) The write_end handlers perform a bitwise AND to check if the
EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit is set and invoke the inline write_end
helper accordingly.
Furthermore, during a buffered write, ext4_write_inline_data_end()
acquires the xattr lock after preparing the write. If a concurrent
page fault (ext4_page_mkwrite()) converts the inline data to an extent
after the write_end handlers check the state but before
ext4_write_inline_data_end() acquires the xattr write lock, the
subsequent check will trigger a kernel panic via
BUG_ON(!ext4_has_inline_data(inode)).
To keep git history working and bisectability clean, replace the
BUG_ON check in ext4_write_inline_data_end() with a graceful error-
handling retry path in this same commit. If the inline data is cleared
after locking the xattr, we safely release all resources (releasing
iloc.bh, unlocking/putting the folio, stopping the active journal
transaction handle) and return 0 (VFS retry) to let the generic write
path retry the operation safely.

"Notification" is too long and the abbreviated version is used in
several places, which is inconsistent and more ambiguous for users.
Rename it to event, which is easier to keep consistent. To keep the
change small, only change uapi/ + do necessary fix ups, and the rest of
internals can be adjusted in the next release.

When a DAX write starts before EOF but extends past i_disksize,
ext4_write_checks() skips the IOCB_NOWAIT check because
iocb->ki_pos <= old_size. However, ext4_dax_write_iter() later calls
ext4_journal_start() to prepare for inode extension, which can sleep
waiting for journal space or transaction commit.
This violates NOWAIT semantics and can stall asynchronous I/O frameworks
like io_uring that rely on non-blocking behavior.
Fix this by checking IOCB_NOWAIT before calling ext4_journal_start()
in the extending write path. If NOWAIT is set and extension is needed,
return -EAGAIN so the caller can retry in blocking context.
Example scenario:
- File: i_size = 1000, i_disksize = 1000
- DAX NOWAIT write: offset = 500, count = 2000
- ext4_write_checks(): ki_pos (500) <= old_size (1000), skip NOWAIT check
- ext4_dax_write_iter(): offset + count (2500) > i_disksize (1000)
- ext4_journal_start() → may sleep → violates NOWAIT

file_modified() passes flags=0 which drops IOCB_NOWAIT, causing
file_update_time() to sleep in ext4_journal_start() via
ext4_dirty_inode() even in non-blocking contexts.
kiocb_modified(iocb) propagates iocb->ki_flags so that
generic_update_time() correctly returns -EAGAIN when IOCB_NOWAIT
is set and ->dirty_inode could block, matching the behavior
already adopted by XFS, FUSE, and ext2.
Affected paths:
- ext4_dio_write_checks(): DIO NOWAIT write
- ext4_write_checks(): shared by buffered (rejects NOWAIT upfront)
and DAX write (supports NOWAIT)
ext4_fallocate() in extents.c is not affected as it has no kiocb.

For unaligned DIO writes, the previous ext4_overwrite_io() required the
entire range to fall within a single written extent. This was overly
conservative: the DIO layer only performs partial block zeroing for the
head and tail blocks when they are partially covered by the write.
Middle blocks that are fully covered are written as whole blocks
without any zeroing, so they are safe regardless of extent state.
Therefore exclusive lock is only required when partial block zeroing
will actually happen:
- The head partial block (if any) lands on a hole or unwritten extent.
- The tail partial block (if any) lands on a hole or unwritten extent.
Middle full-cover blocks can be in any state (hole, unwritten, or
written) - block allocation under shared lock is safe per the previous
patch's analysis (inode_dio_begin + i_data_sem protection).
Replace ext4_overwrite_io() with ext4_dio_needs_zeroing(), which
directly answers the question driving the lock decision. It uses at
most two ext4_map_blocks() calls: one for the head partial block (also
catching the case where it spans through the tail), and one for the
tail partial block if not already covered.
This enables shared lock for previously-rejected scenarios such as:
- Unaligned write spanning written extent + mid-range hole + written
extent at the tail.
- Unaligned write where the partial blocks land on written extents but
the middle has unwritten extents.
Performance:
Hardware: /dev/sda (rotational disk, ~1 GB/s sustained write)
Filesystem: ext4 default mkfs
Unaligned DIO writes (14336 bytes at +512 within each 16K stripe).
Each stripe is laid out as [written][unwritten][unwritten][written],
so the head and tail partial blocks land on written extents but the
middle is unwritten. Metric: IOPS.

Currently, ext4_dio_write_checks() calls ext4_overwrite_io() to
determine if a write is a pure overwrite, and upgrades to exclusive
i_rwsem if not. However, ext4_overwrite_io() uses a single
ext4_map_blocks() call which only returns the first contiguous extent of
the same type. A write spanning multiple pre-allocated extents (e.g.
written + unwritten, or two physically discontiguous written extents)
produces a false negative, forcing an unnecessary exclusive lock upgrade.
After commit 5d87c7fca2c1 ("ext4: avoid starting handle when dio
writing an unwritten extent") and commit 012924f0eeef ("ext4: remove
useless ext4_iomap_overwrite_ops"), ext4_iomap_begin()'s fast path
accepts both EXT4_MAP_MAPPED and EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN without starting a
journal transaction. The iomap iteration naturally handles multi-extent
ranges: each call returns the mapping for the current segment, and
unwritten-to-written conversion is deferred to ext4_dio_write_end_io().
This means the common case of mixed written/unwritten extents never
reaches ext4_iomap_alloc() at all.
Even for the less common case where the range contains a hole and
ext4_iomap_alloc() is needed, exclusive i_rwsem is still unnecessary for
aligned non-extending writes:
- truncate/punch_hole are kept out: they require exclusive i_rwsem
(blocked by our shared lock during allocation), and inode_dio_begin()
keeps their inode_dio_wait() blocked until in-flight bios complete.
- i_data_sem write-lock inside ext4_map_blocks() serializes concurrent
extent tree modifications (parallel writers to the same hole).
- The journal handle is per-thread and does not require i_rwsem
exclusion.
- i_disksize and orphan list are not involved in non-extending writes.
Skip the ext4_overwrite_io() check entirely for aligned writes by
initializing overwrite to true and only calling ext4_overwrite_io() for
unaligned writes. Unaligned writes still need the extent state check
because concurrent partial block zeroing in the DIO layer requires
exclusive serialization unless the range is a pure written-extent
overwrite.
Performance:
Hardware: /dev/sda (rotational disk, ~1 GB/s sustained write)
Filesystem: ext4 default mkfs
Aligned 8K DIO writes spanning written+unwritten extent boundaries.
Each thread writes its own 1G region sequentially; the file is rebuilt
between runs so every block is written exactly once. Metric: IOPS.

generic/746 started failing intermittently on ext3 (no-extent inodes).
The test triggers 'Page cache invalidation failure on direct I/O'
warnings and subsequent fsync returns -EIO. Adding a 50ms delay
between ext4_buffered_write_iter() and filemap_write_and_wait_range()
in ext4_dio_write_iter() makes the race almost always reproducible.
On no-extent inodes, DIO writes to holes cannot use unwritten extents,
so ext4_iomap_alloc() leaves m_flags=0 and ext4_map_blocks() returns 0.
The iomap layer then returns -ENOTBLK, causing fallback to buffered I/O.
The fallback path in ext4_dio_write_iter() calls
ext4_buffered_write_iter() which dirties pages, then does flush and
invalidate. However, there's an unprotected window between
ext4_buffered_write_iter() returning (with inode lock released) and
the subsequent flush+invalidate.
Concurrent async DIO completions from other threads can run
kiocb_invalidate_post_direct_write() during this window. If pages have
been re-dirtied, post-invalidation finds dirty pages and triggers the
warning, setting -EIO in the error sequence.
Consider a file with two 4k extents: [hole][written]. Thread A does
DIO to the written extent, while thread B does DIO spanning both:
kworker A (4k DIO, allocated block) kworker B (8k DIO, fallback)
----------------------------------- ----------------------------
inode_lock_shared() inode_lock_shared()
iomap_dio_rw(): iomap_dio_rw():
kiocb_invalidate_pages -> clean iomap_begin -> -ENOTBLK
submit_bio (async) dio->size = 0
inode_unlock_shared() inode_unlock_shared()
[bio pending in block layer] /* fallback: lock released */
ext4_buffered_write_iter()
inode_lock(exclusive)
generic_perform_write()
-> dirty pages [0, 8k]
inode_unlock(exclusive)
/* pages dirty, no lock */
[bio completes] filemap_write_and_wait_range()
iomap_dio_complete() -> flush dirty pages
kiocb_invalidate_post_direct_write() invalidate_mapping_pages()
invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
-> finds dirty page!
-> dio_warn_stale_pagecache()
-> errseq_set(-EIO)
This issue can be triggered through normal I/O paths, not just
intentionally overlapping DIO writes from userspace. For example,
generic/746 uses a loop device where multiple kworkers issue concurrent
I/O to the backing file. Additionally, when block_size < folio_size,
non-overlapping DIO writes that share a large folio can also trigger
the race.
Add inode_dio_wait() in ext4_buffered_write_iter() before
ext4_write_checks() to drain all in-flight DIO. This ensures that
all DIO clears existing pages before submitting IO (via
kiocb_invalidate_pages()), all BIO waits for all DIO to complete
(via inode_dio_wait()), and ext4_write_checks() observes the inode
size after all completed DIO so that ext4_block_zero_eof() does not
race with in-flight DIO, thus eliminating the race.

Block allocation requires journal access which may sleep, violating
NOWAIT semantics. Return -EAGAIN early when IOMAP_NOWAIT is set,
allowing the caller to retry without the NOWAIT constraint.
This ensures that write paths using IOMAP_NOWAIT (e.g., DIO with
RWF_NOWAIT) will not block on journal operations when blocks need
to be allocated.

bpf, x86: enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for BPF allocations
Hi,
BPF allocations of executable memory on x86 are essentially read-only. Most
paths that call bpf_jit_alloc_exec() immediately make it ROX with
set_memory_rox().
The code generation, at least on x86, uses separately allocated writable
buffers and then updates the actual text memory with text_poke().
These patches do several small adjustments to how BPF allocates executable
memory and enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for BPF allocations on x86.

bpf_dispatcher->rw_image is a temporary writable buffer that
arch_prepare_bpf_dispatcher() fills and then copies into
bpf_dispatcher->image using bpf_arch_text_copy().
The rel32 offsets emitted by emit_bpf_dispatcher() are calculated against
->image, so ->rw_image does not need to live in the module address range.
Allocate ->rw_image with vzalloc() to avoid permissions dance when
EXECMEM_BPF will be backed by ROX caches.
Using vzalloc() rather than vmalloc() ensures that the memory that
bpf_dispatcher_update() unconditionally copies into the executable buffer
is zeroed, which is not ideal but still better than random memory returned
by the existing bpf_jit_alloc_exec() or plain vmalloc().
Switching from bpf_jit_alloc_exec() to vzalloc() also saves a bit of
space in the more scarce module address space.

Reboot the VM, and check the console output from:

But there is no dirty inode, folio_clear_dirty_for_io clears PG_dirty
but leaves tags PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE set which
are only cleared by __folio_start_writeback.
In data=journal mode, jbd2 checkpoints the journalled data to its final
location and clears its own dirty flag without touching folio PG_dirty
or xarray dirty flags.
The commit f4a2b42e7891 ("ext4: fix stale xarray tags after writeback")
fixes when PG_dirty is still set but there is no dirty page.
Another case is PG_dirty is cleared, but PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE is still set. In this case, writeback thread
checks clean folio and skips it in mpage_prepare_extent_to_map:
if (!folio_test_dirty(folio) ||
...
folio_unlcok(folio);
continue
And never reaches ext4_bio_write_folio where the commit f4a2b42e7891
clears the stale xarray tags. Print debug logs after the filesystem
is remounted read-only:
writepages RDONLY nrpages=2048 dirtytag=1 wbtag=0 towrite=1 sync=0
And all folios are actually clean:
folio idx=3 dirty=0 wb=0 checked=0 dirtybuf=0 jbddirty=0 mapped=1
...
We need to clear the xarray stale tags for such clean folios by
cycling them through writeback in the skip path, the same way
f4a2b42e7891 does in ext4_bio_write_folio.

USB Gen1 requires scrambling and 8b/10b encoding to be performed in the
physical layer. Do not bypass PHY-side scrambler or encoder/decoder for
USB operation, as mandated by the USB 3.x specification.
Scrambler and 8b/10b bypass remain restricted to SATA and SGMII
modes, where encoding is handled in the controller.

xpsgtr_bypass_scrambler_8b10b() used xpsgtr_write_phy() which performs
a full register write, silently clearing any bits beyond the intended
bypass control fields.
Switch to xpsgtr_clr_set_phy() with clr=mask, set=mask to set only
the bypass bits while preserving the remaining bits in each register.

The L0_TX_DIG_61 register bit 2 is a reserved read-only field.
The previous mask value 0x0f incorrectly included bit 2, causing
unintended writes to a reserved bit on every scrambler bypass
operation.
Correct the mask to (BIT(3) | GENMASK(1, 0)) to cover only the
valid scramble bypass control bits.

Syzbot/stress-ng reported an ABBA deadlock in ext4 when exercising
concurrent xattr workloads (using the ea_inode mount/format option).
The deadlock occurs between the running transaction and the eviction
thread:
- Task 1 (stress-ng): Holds a reference to a shared mbcache_entry (ce)
and calls ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find() -> ext4_iget() to retrieve
the corresponding EA inode. Since the EA inode is currently being
evicted, ext4_iget() blocks in __wait_on_freeing_inode() waiting for
eviction to complete.
- Task 2 (eviction thread): Currently evicting the same EA inode in
ext4_evict_ea_inode(). It calls mb_cache_entry_wait_unused(oe) which
blocks waiting for Task 1 to release the reference to the mbcache_entry.
To break this deadlock, implement a new ext4_iget() configuration flag
named EXT4_IGET_NOWAIT. When set, perform a non-blocking lookup of the
inode via VFS's find_inode_nowait() API.
If the inode is currently being evicted (marked with I_FREEING or
I_WILL_FREE) or created (I_CREATING), or if it is not present in the VFS
inode cache (cache miss), simply skip it (returning -ENOENT) rather than
waiting for eviction/creation to complete, breaking the ABBA cycle.
Since we return -ENOENT immediately on a cache miss, we never attempt to
allocate a new inode or call iget_locked(), completely eliminating any
TOCTOU race window.
If the returned inode is I_NEW, wait for its initialization to clear via
wait_on_new_inode(). If initialization fails and the inode is unhashed
during wait_on_new_inode() waking up (e.g., due to an I/O read error in
another thread), safely drop the reference and return -ENOENT. This
unhashed check is executed unconditionally on all cache-hit pathways to
properly handle concurrent initialization failures.
Finally, standard validation checks (including is_bad_inode,
EXT4_EA_INODE_FL, file_acl, and xattr flags) are executed as normal inside
check_igot_inode() to fully guarantee VFS-layer safety.
In ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find(), invoke ext4_iget() with the new
EXT4_IGET_NOWAIT flag to perform the non-blocking cache search.
