about them so far, Qualcomm's Cortex-A78C based "Shikra" and Altera's
Cortex-A720 based Agilex72 SOCFPGA.
We have also gained support for a couple of SoCs from the 2023/2024
timeframe that have been in the making for a while:
- The Apple platform gains support for M3 Pro, Max and Ultra SoC,
following the basic M3 support from 7.2.
- Samsung Exynos 1580 is a high-end mobile phone SoC from 2024
- Canaan K230 is a RISC-V based 64-bit AI SoC, based on the earlier
K210 chip
- Sophgo SG2000 is a mixed Arm/RISC-V chip that was already supported
using the Arm core but is now also added for RISC-V along with
several other variants of the cv18xx series
In terms of newly added machines we have reference platforms for all
the chips above, plus
- Only four 32-bit Arm boards: two older phones and two older
industrial/embedded boards; using Allwinner, Qualcomm and Rockchip
SoCs
- Three laptops und three phones using Qualcomm SoCs
- Ten 64-bit Rockchips based single-board computers, along with one
NAS box and a game console.
- Seven industrial/embedded boards and modules using NXP i.MX8/9
SoCs.
- A Lenovo desktop box based on NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX
- A few more single-board computers based on Allwinnner A133,

Pull timer and timekeeping core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Fix a subtly inconsistency in the timekeeping code, which fails to
account for the monotonicity adjustment in ntp_error.
For small changes of the clocksource multiplicator (+/-1) which are
typically used by the NTP PLL this is hard to observe. But for larger
adjustments, e.g. caused by a direct frequency setting through
adjtimex() the one-time uncompensated offset is significant.
Cure this by adjusting ntp_error with the resulting offset so that
the discrepancy is smoothed away over time
- Make tick length calculations correct in NTP.
The timekeeping core takes the quantisation of the clocksource into
account when calculating the tick length to compensate for the
deviation of the nominal NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH.
While timekeeping gets this right, NTP is not aware of that, which
means it operates on the nominal value and not on the actual value
which is determined by the clock source frequency. The rounding of a
coarse clocksource like the ACPI PM timer results in a +127 PPM
deviation.
Cure this by exposing the deviation to the NTP code so that it can
operate on the same data as the timekeeping core. This is purely
kernel internal. User space still sees the nominal tick lenght via
adjtimex().
- The accuracy of the NTP adjustments is fairly approximate as the code
assumes that the invocations are precisely in NTP interval frequency
ticks and the final adjustment can over and under-run.
Cure this by adjusting ntp_error by the intended skew on each tick to
achieve the desired rate.
- Handle the two competing skews of time offset and time adjustment
correctly by calculating the conflict portion between the skews and
adjusting both accordingly.

Pull treewide timer related cleanups from Thomas Gleixner:
- Remove the leftover CLOCK_TICK_RATE which has been scheduled for
removal more than a decade ago along with some now empty asm/timex.h
files.
- Consolidate delay timer calibration
The construct of having a define in a header requires that
architectures provided asm/timex.h for no reason. Also the function
name for reading the delay timer is confusing at best.
Use a config switch to enable that functionality and rename the
function to delay_read_timer() to make the purpose clear.
This removes some more now empty asm/timex.h files as well.

Pull generic entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Make syscall user dispatching configurable
Not all architectures can makes use of syscall user dispatching.
Allow them to disable the feature completely.
- Consolidate stack randomization for the generic entry code and the
architectures using it.
Stack randomization on syscall entry was sprinkled throughout the
architecture specific low level entry code and in some cases at the
wrong points, e.g. before establishing state, which violates the
non-instrumentable constraints of that code.
Clean this up by integrating stack randomization into the generic
entry code helpers so that it is invoked at the earliest possible
point right after establishing state and converting all generic entry
code using architecture over.
- Clean up the syscall number handling in the generic entry code. It
works correctly for architectures which have a separate return value
storage in pt_regs, but fails to distinguish the case where user
space handed in -1 as syscall number from the case where the entry
code rejects it by returning -1 to the callers. Aside of that the
return value functionality of those interfaces is not really
intuitive.
Fix this by separating the decision to reject a syscall (user
dispatch, ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the
syscall number through these mechanisms.
This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have
a separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where
a tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite
both the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem
which cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be
addressed by separating the storage model in the affected
architectures.

Pull ACPI support updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The most significant change here is the elimination of struct
acpi_driver that has no more users in the tree now along with some
documentation related to it, and a follow-up update to set the "no PM"
flag for all ACPI devices that are now only going to play the role of
other devices' "companions" (in analogy with DT nodes).
There is also a significant update of irqchip code related to ACPI
done in order to enable GICv5 IWB ACPI probe ordering detection on
ARM, which involves RISC-V interrupt controller management code
refactoring to extract generic code from it into the common ACPI IRQ
code.
The rest is mostly fixes, including some fallout of the _OSC handling
rework in 7.0, ACPI CPPC library fixes, a workaround for registering
ACPI platform devices with overlapping I/O or memory resources, an
ACPI EC driver fix related to probe deferral on platforms using
HW-reduced ACPI, two ACPI battery driver fixes and a workaround for
handling model numbers with unprintable characters in it, probe error
cleanup and driver unload code path fixes, hardware error reporting
fixes, documentation fixes, and assorted code cleanups all over.
Specifics:
- Eliminate struct acpi_driver whose users have all been converted to
bind to platform devices or auxiliary devices and set the "no power
management" flag for all struct acpi_device objects (Rafael
Wysocki)
- Avoid complaints regarding missing _OSC features on platforms where
OSC_CAPABILITIES_MASK_ERROR is set in _OSC error bits even though
all of the requested features are actually acknowledged (Rafael
Wysocki)
- Avoid printing confusing _OSC messages for non-PCIe host bridges
without _OSC which is a valid configuration (Kazuma Kondo)
- Use correct region struct for BERT region size check and properly
map BERT and CCEL data to their ACPI tables (Thomas Renninger)
- Add acpi_device_clear_deps(), refactor RISC-V interrupt controller
management code to extract generic code from it into the common
ACPI IRQ code, and enable GICv5 IWB ACPI probe ordering detection
on ARM on top of that (Lorenzo Pieralisi)
- Stop using acpi_device_name() in the PNP core, stop setting
acpi_device_name/class() in the Xen variant of the ACPI PAD
(Processor Aggregator Device) driver, and make the Loongarch laptop
driver stop setting acpi_device_class() (Rafael Wysocki)
- Fix issues related to the desired_perf register access in the ACPI
CPPC library and update it to avoid unnecessary overhead (Christian
Loehle)
- Simplify acpi_get_pci_dev() with the help of a mutex guard,
introduce acpi_dev_get_pci_dev() for code that has a struct ACPI
device for which it wants to get the struct pci_dev pointer of the
associated PCI device, and use it in the ACPI video bus driver
(Rafael Wysocki)
- Avoid registering platform devices with resource overlaps in the
ACPI core device enumeration code (Rafael Wysocki)
- Clean up the list of included header files in the NHLT table parser
and validate the table and record lengths in the FPDT parser (Andy
Shevchenko and Pengpeng Hou)
- Unregister the cpufreq notifier on init failure in the ACPI
processor driver (Can Peng)
- Validate MADT IOAPIC entry bounds during IOAPIC hotplug lookup in
the ACPI processor driver (Pengpeng Hou)
- Avoid _REG disconnect on probe deferrals related to GPIO IRQ in the
ACPI EC driver (Zhu Ling)
- Update kerneldoc comments of two structures in the ACPI bus type
code to use correct struct member names to avoid warnings (Randy
Dunlap)
- Use a correct function parameter name in kernel-doc in the ACPI fan
driver (Randy Dunlap)
- Update ACPI fan IDs to follow modern style and clean up header file
inclusions in the ACPI fan driver (Andy Shevchenko)
- Use devm_acpi_install_notify_handler() to replace a custom
open-coded devres-based management of an ACPI notify handler in the
ACPI fan driver (Rafael Wysocki)
- Adjust charging status validation check in the ACPI battery driver
to avoid incorrect status reporting (Rafael Wysocki)
- Merge consecutive battery notifications in the ACPI battery driver
to reduce the pressure on STA, _BST and _BIX/_BIF ACPI control
methods and make that driver use kstrtoul() instead of
sscanf("%lu\n") (Rong Zhang)
- Sanitise model_number in the ACPI battery driver by dropping
unprintable characters (Kate Hsuan)
- Remove a node_set() call that is redundant from
acpi_parse_memory_affinity() (Sang-Heon Jeon)
- Prevent kernel-doc warnings by converting 2 function description
comments to kernel-doc format (Randy Dunlap)

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:
"Add library APIs for most AES encryption modes that are used in the
kernel (ECB, CBC, CBC-CTS, CTR, XCTR, XTS, GCM, CCM).
These AES modes have many in-kernel users that are currently using the
crypto_skcipher or crypto_aead APIs. These existing APIs are difficult
to use and inefficient. Until now, the lack of proper library support
for these has been the main gap in the crypto library.
This set of changes is the next stage of addressing it:
- Implement the new APIs on top of the existing support for
single-block AES in the library.
- Fully document the new APIs.
- Migrate the only user of the old AES-GCM library API to the new,
more flexible API; then remove the old API and its implementation.
- Wire up the new APIs to the traditional crypto API by adding
crypto_skcipher and crypto_aead algorithms.
This makes the new APIs be covered by the traditional crypto API's
self-tests. It also makes them be already used for real on systems
that don't have architecture-optimized code for these modes.
But most importantly, this is a prerequisite for migrating the
architecture-optimized code for these AES modes (i.e.
arch/*/crypto/aes*) into the library, which as usual will eliminate
a lot of redundant "glue" code.
Note that unlike some of the other algorithms that have been migrated
to the library, e.g. SHA-512, for these AES modes there was too much
to get done in one cycle. Nor did it make sense to handle these modes
one at a time, because they tend to be coupled together or depend on
each other, especially in the architecture-optimized AES code.
Thus, most of the benefits (reductions in lines of code, performance
improvements, etc.) will follow in later cycles when
architecture-optimized code is migrated into the library and users of
crypto_skcipher and crypto_aead are updated to use the new APIs.
The design of the new APIs was informed by writing proof-of-concept
patches for many kernel subsystems currently accessing these same
algorithms via crypto_skcipher or crypto_aead (patches 18-33 of
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260707053503.209874-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/).
While those patches will be resent for real later, the total diffstat
for them was negative 1905 lines. So clearly the new APIs are quite a
bit easier to use and align better with what users actually need.
Besides the new AES encryption APIs, there are also a few changes for
improved AES-CMAC key and context zeroization"

Pull fscrypt updates from Eric Biggers:
"The main change this cycle is a significant simplification that's been
overdue for a while now: standardizing on a single file contents
encryption implementation in ext4 and f2fs, instead of having two.
Specifically, the original filesystem-layer file contents encryption
implementation is removed, and the blk-crypto implementation is now
used unconditionally. blk-crypto delegates either to inline crypto
hardware or to the CPU via blk-crypto-fallback. The latter is
functionally equivalent to the original filesystem-layer code.
The blk-crypto implementation already existed, but previously it was
used only when the filesystem was mounted with "-o inlinecrypt". Now,
"-o inlinecrypt" just selects whether inline crypto hardware is used.
To allow maintaining that user control over hardware use, the
blk-crypto API is extended with a new flag BLK_CRYPTO_CFG_ALLOW_HW.
Overall, this removes quite a bit of redundant code from ext4, f2fs,
and fs/crypto/. It should make things easier for ongoing filesystem
efforts such as iomap support, large folios, and btrfs encryption
(btrfs had already been planning to use blk-crypto exclusively.)
There are two small behavior changes of note:
- Direct I/O now works on encrypted files even without "-o inlinecrypt",
rather than falling back to buffered I/O. This is effectively a
bugfix, though I'll continue to keep an eye out for any user that
may have been depending on the buffered I/O fallback.
- IV_INO_LBLK_32 policies are no longer supported in certain cases
that didn't make sense and have no known uses.
This has been in linux-next since July 22 with no reported issues. All
encryption xfstests pass on ext4 and f2fs. As usual I've also been
using it on a system with an fscrypt-encrypted home directory. Of
course, the blk-crypto code paths also aren't new and were already
being used on many systems via the inlinecrypt mount option.
In addition to the main change described above, there are a few other
cleanups such as using lock guards for mutexes, improving
documentation, and removing a workaround for outdated gcc versions"

Pull failfs filesystem from Christian Brauner:
"Add failfs and expose a FD_FAILFS_ROOT sentinel.
This allows userspace to shed their filesystem state completely. A
process with its root or working directory in failfs must anchor every
path lookup at an explicit file descriptor. Absolute paths, absolute
symlinks and AT_FDCWD-relative lookups simply fail.
Failfs is the counterpart to nullfs. nullfs says adds a permanently
empty, immutable directory whose lookups fail with ENOENT but which
can be opened, read, stat'd and mounted upon. Failfs on the other hand
fails every operation. The root cannot be opened at all. A single
instance is mounted during early boot via kern_mount(), which makes it
logically distinct from every mount namespace.
This is accompanied by a new fchroot() system call which makes
chrooting via a file descriptor a first class concept. It's possible
to chroot into failfs as an unprivileged user provided the task has no
new privileges set"

clang honors a local `register unsigned long x __asm__("$N")` variable
only where it appears as an inline-asm operand; merely reading it does
not produce the contents of that register. So trap_init() passed an
undefined global pointer to PAL_wrkgp, and load_PCB() stored an undefined
stack pointer into the PCB that swpctx then loaded. Either one wedges an
early boot.
Read the registers explicitly instead: an inline mov for $gp in
trap_init(), and the file-scope current_stack_pointer for $sp in
load_PCB(). A file-scope register-asm variable is the form clang does
support.

Pull OpenRISC fix from Stafford Horne:
"A bug fix found by researchers:
- mask all privileged bits when restoring the supervisor register
from sigreturn"
* tag 'for-linus' of https://github.com/openrisc/linux:
openrisc: signal: do not restore privileged SR bits on sigreturn
restore_sigcontext() copies the whole supervision register (SR) from the
signal frame and only clears SPR_SR_SM before the value is reloaded into
the hardware SR (through ESR and l.rfe) on the return to user space. All
other SR bits are left under user control.
An unprivileged task can thus return from a signal handler through a
crafted sigframe that clears SPR_SR_DME. With the data MMU disabled the
CPU performs no translation or protection on data accesses, so the task
gains read and write access to arbitrary physical memory, a local
privilege escalation. SPR_SR_IME, SPR_SR_SUMRA, SPR_SR_LEE, SPR_SR_EPH
and the cache-enable bits are exposed the same way. The ptrace GPR regset
already refuses any change to SR for exactly this reason.
Restore only the arithmetic flag bits (F, CY, OV) from the signal frame
and take every privileged control bit from the SR the kernel saved on
signal entry.
Verified with qemu-system-or1k -M or1k-sim: before this change an
unprivileged PoC clears SPR_SR_DME in rt_sigreturn and writes a marker to
physical address 0x03000000 (beyond the kernel's mem=32M); afterwards the
same PoC receives SIGSEGV and physical memory is unchanged.
