e2125dac22 Merge tag 'xarray-4.20-rc4' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax
Pull XArray updates from Matthew Wilcox:
 "We found some bugs in the DAX conversion to XArray (and one bug which
  predated the XArray conversion). There were a couple of bugs in some
  of the higher-level functions, which aren't actually being called in
  today's kernel, but surfaced as a result of converting existing radix
  tree & IDR users over to the XArray.

  Some of the other changes to how the higher-level APIs work were also
  motivated by converting various users; again, they're not in use in
  today's kernel, so changing them has a low probability of introducing
  a bug.

  Dan can still trigger a bug in the DAX code with hot-offline/online,
  and we're working on tracking that down"

6c76307716 dt-bindings: clock: meson8b: use the registers from the HHI syscon
The clock controller on Meson8/Meson8m2 and Meson8b is part of a
register region called "HHI". This register area contains more
functionality than just a clock controller:
- the clock controller
- some reset controller bits
- temperature sensor calibration coefficient (only on Meson8b and
  Meson8m2 - one one out of five TSC bits is stored in the HHI
  registers)
- HDMI controller

The HHI register area may be accessed concurrently. Allow this by using
a "system controller" as parent node.

d644cca50f media: vb2: Allow reqbufs(0) with "in use" MMAP buffers
Videobuf2 presently does not allow VIDIOC_REQBUFS to destroy outstanding
buffers if the queue is of type V4L2_MEMORY_MMAP, and if the buffers are
considered "in use".  This is different behavior than for other memory
types and prevents us from deallocating buffers in following two cases:

1) There are outstanding mmap()ed views on the buffer. However even if
   we put the buffer in reqbufs(0), there will be remaining references,
   due to vma .open/close() adjusting vb2 buffer refcount appropriately.
   This means that the buffer will be in fact freed only when the last
   mmap()ed view is unmapped.

2) Buffer has been exported as a DMABUF. Refcount of the vb2 buffer
   is managed properly by VB2 DMABUF ops, i.e. incremented on DMABUF
   get and decremented on DMABUF release. This means that the buffer
   will be alive until all importers release it.

Considering both cases above, there does not seem to be any need to
prevent reqbufs(0) operation, because buffer lifetime is already
properly managed by both mmap() and DMABUF code paths. Let's remove it
and allow userspace freeing the queue (and potentially allocating a new
one) even though old buffers might be still in processing.

To let userspace know that the kernel now supports orphaning buffers
that are still in use, add a new V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_ORPHANED_BUFS
to be set by reqbufs and create_bufs.

[p.zabel@pengutronix.de: added V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_ORPHANED_BUFS,

First set of new device support, features and cleanups for IIO in the 4.21 cycle

Along with the headline feature of 5 new drivers, we have the
substantial addition of auxilliary sensor support on the lsm6sdx
parts for ST.  There has also been a good set of staging cleanup
in this period with more underway.

An ever increasing number of devices supported with just a new
ID which is a good sign that at least some manufacturers are
continuing to stabilise their interfaces.

New device support,
* ad7124
  - New driver supporting Analog Devices' ad7124-4 and ad7124-8 parts
    with the inevitable DT binding.
* ad7949
  - New driver supporting Analog Devices' ad7949, AD7682 and AD7689 ADCs.
* rm3100
  - New driver supporting PNIs RM3100 magnometer with bindings and
    vendor prefix.
* ti-dac7311
  - New driver supporting DAC7311, DAC6311 and DAC5311 TI DACs, with
    DT bindings.
* vcnl5035
  - New driver supporting the light sensor part of the VCNL4035, with
    DT bindings

Features,
* bindings
  - Add a generic ADC channel binding as we keep reinventing this
    wheel.
* adc128s052
  - Add IDs for additional pin compatible parts.
  - Add APCI ID seen on E3940 UP squared boards.
* ad_sigma_delta
  - Allow for custom data register overiding default.
* kxcjk1013
  - Add KIOX0009 ACPI ID as seen on the Acer One 10.
* lsm6dsx
  - Rework leading to...
  - External sensor support using the built in I2C master.
  - Initial support for a slave lis2mdl magnetometer.
* meson-saradc
  - Add temperature sensor support and bindings.
* st_magn
  - New ID for lsm9dsl_magn with bindings
  - New ID for lis3de accelerometer
* tpl0102
  - Add supprot for IIO_AVAIL_RANGE to report the range available
    from this device to userspace and in kernel users.

Cleanups and minor fixes
* tools
  - Allow outside specification of CFLAGS
* ad2s90
  - Handle and spi_read error.
  - Handle spi_setup failure
  - Drop a pointless assignment.
  - Prevent a potentail race by moving device registration to after
    all other setup.
  - Add missing scale attribute.
  - Add a sanity check on channel type before trying to read it.
* ad2s1210
  - Move to modern gpio descriptors.
  - Drop a gpioin flag which made no sense as far as we can tell.
  - Add dt table (bindings doc to follow when this is ready for
    moving out of staging).
* ad5933
  - Drop camel-case naming of ext_clk_hz.
  - White space fixes.

  - Use crc8.h to build the crc table replacing custom code.
  - Avoid unecessary cast.
  - Power down the device if an error happens in probe
  - Use devm routines to simplify probe and remove.
* ad7606
  - Alignment fixes.
* ad7780
  - This worked as long as by coincidence an uninitialized value
    was 0.  Lets not rely on that.
  - Ensure gain update is only used with the ad778x chips that
    actually support it.
  - Tidy up pattern mask generation.
  - Read regulator when scale is requested (which should be infrequent)
    as it might have changed from initialization.
* ad7816
  - Move to modern gpio descriptors
  - Don't use a busy_pin for ad7818 as there isn't one.
  - Ensure RD/WR and CONVST pins are outputs (previously they
    were brought up as inputs which doesn't seem to make any sense)
  - DT id table.
* adc128s052
  - SPDX
* adt7316
  - Alignment fix.
  - Fix data reading.  When using I2C the driver never actually
    used the value read.  This has been broken a very long time
    hence no rush to fix it now + the driver is undergoing a lot
    of cleanup.
  - Sanity check that the i2c read didn't fail to actually read
    anything.
* dpot-dac
  - Mark a switch full through with slightly different text so that
    gcc doesn't warn on it.
* gyro-adc
  - Fix a wrong file in the MAINTAINERS entry and add binding doc to the

    approach.
* rcar-adc
  - SPDX
* sc27xx
  - Add ADC conversion timeout support to avoid possible fault.
* ssp_sensors
  - Don't free managed resources manually.
* st-magn

    postfix (on multi chip in package parts)
  - Add BDU register for LIS3MDL where it seems to have been missed.

ffe0e7cf29 Revert "Input: Add the REL_WHEEL_HI_RES event code"
This reverts commit aaf9978c3c.

Quoting Peter:

There is a HID feature report called "Resolution Multiplier"
Described in the "Enhanced Wheel Support in Windows" doc and
the "USB HID Usage Tables" page 30.

http://download.microsoft.com/download/b/d/1/bd1f7ef4-7d72-419e-bc5c-9f79ad7bb66e/wheel.docx
https://www.usb.org/sites/default/files/documents/hut1_12v2.pdf

This was new for Windows Vista, so we're only a decade behind here. I only
accidentally found this a few days ago while debugging a stuck button on a
Microsoft mouse.

The docs above describe it like this: a wheel control by default sends
value 1 per notch. If the resolution multiplier is active, the wheel is
expected to send a value of $multiplier per notch (e.g. MS Sculpt mouse) or
just send events more often, i.e. for less physical motion (e.g. MS Comfort
mouse).

For the latter, you need the right HW of course. The Sculpt mouse has
tactile wheel clicks, so nothing really changes. The Comfort mouse has
continuous motion with no tactile clicks. Similar to the free-wheeling
Logitech mice but without any inertia.

Note that the doc also says that Vista and onwards *always* enable this
feature where available.

An example HID definition looks like this:

       Usage Page Generic Desktop (0x01)
       Usage Resolution Multiplier (0x48)
       Logical Minimum 0
       Logical Maximum 1
       Physical Minimum 1
       Physical Maximum 16
       Report Size 2 # in bits
       Report Count 1
       Feature (Data, Var, Abs)

So the actual bits have values 0 or 1 and that reflects real values 1 or 16.
We've only seen single-bits so far, so there's low-res and hi-res, but
nothing in between.

The multiplier is available for HID usages "Wheel" and "AC Pan" (horiz wheel).
Microsoft suggests that

> Vendors should ship their devices with smooth scrolling disabled and allow
> Windows to enable it. This ensures that the device works like a regular HID
> device on legacy operating systems that do not support smooth scrolling.
(see the wheel doc linked above)

The mice that we tested so far do reset on unplug.

Device Support looks to be all (?) Microsoft mice but nothing else

Not supported:
- Logitech G500s, G303
- Roccat Kone XTD
- all the cheap Lenovo, HP, Dell, Logitech USB mice that come with a
  workstation that I could find don't have it.
- Etekcity something something
- Razer Imperator

Supported:
- Microsoft Comfort Optical Mouse 3000 - yes, physical: 1:4
- Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse - yes, physical: 1:12
- Microsoft Surface mouse - yes, physical: 1:4

So again, I think this is really just available on Microsoft mice, but
probably all decent MS mice released over the last decade.

Looking at the hardware itself:

- no noticeable notches in the weel
- low-res: 18 events per 360deg rotation (click angle 20 deg)
- high-res: 72 events per 360deg → matches multiplier of 4

- I can feel the notches during wheel turns
- low-res: 24 events per 360 deg rotation (click angle 15 deg)
  - horiz wheel is tilt-based, continuous output value 1
- high-res: 24 events per 360deg with value 12 → matches multiplier of 12
  - horiz wheel output rate doubles/triples?, values is 3

- It's a touch strip, not a wheel so no notches
- high-res: events have value 4 instead of 1
  a bit strange given that it doesn't actually have notches.

Ok, why is this an issue for the current API? First, because the logitech
multiplier used in Harry's patches looks suspiciously like the Resolution
Multiplier so I think we should assume it's the same thing. Nestor, can you
shed some light on that?

- `REL_WHEEL` is defined as the number of notches, emulated where needed.
- `REL_WHEEL_HI_RES` is the movement of the user's finger in microns.
- `WM_MOUSEWHEEL` (Windows) is is a multiple of 120, defined as "the threshold
  for action to be taken and one such action"
  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/inputdev/wm-mousewheel

If the multiplier is set to M, this means we need an accumulated value of M
until we can claim there was a wheel click. So after enabling the multiplier
and setting it to the maximum (like Windows):
- M units are 15deg rotation → 1 unit is 2620/M micron (see below). This is
  the `REL_WHEEL_HI_RES` value.
  - wheel diameter 20mm: 15 deg rotation is 2.62mm, 2620 micron (pi * 20mm /
    (360deg/15deg))
- For every M units accumulated, send one `REL_WHEEL` event

The problem here is that we've now hardcoded 20mm/15 deg into the kernel and
we have no way of getting the size of the wheel or the click angle into the
kernel.

In userspace we now have to undo the kernel's calculation. If our click angle
is e.g. 20 degree we have to undo the (lossy) calculation from the kernel and
calculate the correct angle instead. This also means the 15 is a hardcoded
option forever and cannot be changed.

In hid-logitech-hidpp.c, the microns per unit is hardcoded per device.
Harry, did you measure those by hand? We'd need to update the kernel for
every device and there are 10 years worth of devices from MS alone.

The multiplier default is 8 which is in the right ballpark, so I'm pretty
sure this is the same as the Resolution Multiplier, just in HID++ lingo. And
given that the 120 magic factor is what Windows uses in the end, I can't
imagine Logitech rolling their own thing here. Nestor?

And we're already fairly inaccurate with the microns anyway. The MX Anywhere
2S has a click angle of 20 degrees (18 stops) and a 17mm wheel, so a wheel
notch is approximately 2.67mm, one event at multiplier 8 (1/8 of a notch)
would be 334 micron. That's only 80% of the fallback value of 406 in the
kernel. Multiplier 6 gives us 445micron (10% off). I'm assuming multiplier 7
doesn't exist because it's not a factor of 120.

Summary:

Best option may be to simply do what Windows is doing, all the HW manufacturers
have to use that approach after all. Switch `REL_WHEEL_HI_RES` to report in
fractions of 120, with 120 being one notch and divide that by the multiplier
for the actual events. So e.g. the Logitech multiplier 8 would send value 15
for each event in hi-res mode. This can be converted in userspace to
whatever userspace needs (combined with a hwdb there that tells you wheel
size/click angle/...).

Conflicts:
	include/uapi/linux/input-event-codes.h -> I kept the new
         reserved event in the code, so I had to adapt the revert
         slightly

48d7f160b1 dt-bindings: clk: Introduce 'protected-clocks' property
Add a generic clk property for clks which are not intended to be used by
the OS due to security restrictions put in place by firmware. For
example, on some Qualcomm firmwares reading or writing certain clk
registers causes the entire system to reboot, but on other firmwares
reading and writing those same registers is required to make devices
like QSPI work. Rather than adding one-off properties each time a new
set of clks appears to be protected, let's add a generic clk property to
describe any set of clks that shouldn't be touched by the OS. This way
we never need to register the clks or use them in certain firmware
configurations.

Kyle Huey reported that 'rr', a replay debugger, broke due to the following commit:

  af3bdb991a ("perf/x86/intel: Add a separate Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler")

Rework the 'disable_counter_freezing' __setup() parameter such that we
can explicitly enable/disable it and switch to default disabled.

To this purpose, rename the parameter to "perf_v4_pmi=" which is a much
better description and allows requiring a bool argument.

544b03da39 Documentation/security-bugs: Postpone fix publication in exceptional cases
At the request of the reporter, the Linux kernel security team offers to
postpone the publishing of a fix for up to 5 business days from the date
of a report.

While it is generally undesirable to keep a fix private after it has
been developed, this short window is intended to allow distributions to
package the fix into their kernel builds and permits early inclusion of
the security team in the case of a co-ordinated disclosure with other
parties. Unfortunately, discussions with major Linux distributions and
cloud providers has revealed that 5 business days is not sufficient to
achieve either of these two goals.

As an example, cloud providers need to roll out KVM security fixes to a
global fleet of hosts with sufficient early ramp-up and monitoring. An
end-to-end timeline of less than two weeks dramatically cuts into the
amount of early validation and increases the chance of guest-visible
regressions.

The consequence of this timeline mismatch is that security issues are
commonly fixed without the involvement of the Linux kernel security team
and are instead analysed and addressed by an ad-hoc group of developers
across companies contributing to Linux. In some cases, mainline (and
therefore the official stable kernels) can be left to languish for
extended periods of time. This undermines the Linux kernel security
process and puts upstream developers in a difficult position should they
find themselves involved with an undisclosed security problem that they
are unable to report due to restrictions from their employer.

To accommodate the needs of these users of the Linux kernel and
encourage them to engage with the Linux security team when security
issues are first uncovered, extend the maximum period for which fixes
may be delayed to 7 calendar days, or 14 calendar days in exceptional
cases, where the logistics of QA and large scale rollouts specifically
need to be accommodated. This brings parity with the linux-distros@
maximum embargo period of 14 calendar days.

c969eb8301 Document /proc/pid PID reuse behavior
State explicitly that holding a /proc/pid file descriptor open does
not reserve the PID. Also note that in the event of PID reuse, these
open file descriptors refer to the old, now-dead process, and not the
new one that happens to be named the same numeric PID.

1428cc0e0c Documentation: update path-lookup.md for parallel lookups
Since this document was written, i_mutex has been replace with
i_rwsem, and shared locks are utilized to allow lookups in the one
directory to happen in parallel.

So replace i_mutex with i_rwsem, and explain how this is used for
parallel lookups.

806654a966 Documentation: Use "while" instead of "whilst"
Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth:

  | Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more
  | formal, and "while" is the common word.
  |
  | [...]
  |
  | Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to
  | use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never
  | uses?

dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.

Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".
