ASoC: davinci-evm: Fix reference leak in davinci_evm_probe [+ + +]

Date:   Wed Jan 7 23:48:37 2026 +0800

    ASoC: davinci-evm: Fix reference leak in davinci_evm_probe
    
    [ Upstream commit 5b577d214fcc109707bcb77b4ae72a31cfd86798 ]
    
    The davinci_evm_probe() function calls of_parse_phandle() to acquire
    device nodes for "ti,audio-codec" and "ti,mcasp-controller". These
    functions return device nodes with incremented reference counts.
    
    However, in several error paths (e.g., when the second of_parse_phandle(),
    snd_soc_of_parse_card_name(), or devm_snd_soc_register_card() fails),
    the function returns directly without releasing the acquired nodes,
    leading to reference leaks.
    
    This patch adds an error handling path 'err_put' to properly release
    the device nodes using of_node_put() and clean up the pointers when
    an error occurs.

    [ Upstream commit d89aad92cfd15edbd704746f44c98fe687f9366f ]
    
    When scanning for the reset pin, we could get an -EPROBE_DEFER.
    The driver would assume that no reset pin had been defined,
    which would mean that the chip would never be powered.
    
    Now we both respect any error we get from devm_gpiod_get_optional.
    We also now properly report the missing GPIO definition when
    'gpio_reset' is NULL.

    The 'max' argument of ida_alloc_max() takes the maximum valid ID and not

    would exceed the limits of minor numbers (20-bits). Fix this off-by-one
    error by subtracting 1 from the 'max'.

gve: Correct ethtool rx_dropped calculation [+ + +]

Date:   Sat Feb 7 14:46:45 2026 -0500

    gve: Correct ethtool rx_dropped calculation
    
    [ Upstream commit c7db85d579a1dccb624235534508c75fbf2dfe46 ]
    
    The gve driver's "rx_dropped" statistic, exposed via `ethtool -S`,
    incorrectly includes `rx_buf_alloc_fail` counts. These failures
    represent an inability to allocate receive buffers, not true packet
    drops where a received packet is discarded. This misrepresentation can
    lead to inaccurate diagnostics.
    
    This patch rectifies the ethtool "rx_dropped" calculation. It removes
    `rx_buf_alloc_fail` from the total and adds `xdp_tx_errors` and
    `xdp_redirect_errors`, which represent legitimate packet drops within
    the XDP path.

gve: Fix stats report corruption on queue count change [+ + +]

Date:   Sat Feb 7 13:14:04 2026 -0500

    gve: Fix stats report corruption on queue count change
    
    [ Upstream commit 7b9ebcce0296e104a0d82a6b09d68564806158ff ]
    
    The driver and the NIC share a region in memory for stats reporting.
    The NIC calculates its offset into this region based on the total size
    of the stats region and the size of the NIC's stats.
    
    When the number of queues is changed, the driver's stats region is
    resized. If the queue count is increased, the NIC can write past
    the end of the allocated stats region, causing memory corruption.
    If the queue count is decreased, there is a gap between the driver
    and NIC stats, leading to incorrect stats reporting.
    
    This change fixes the issue by allocating stats region with maximum
    size, and the offset calculation for NIC stats is changed to match
    with the calculation of the NIC.

HID: intel-ish-hid: Reset enum_devices_done before enumeration [+ + +]

    HID: intel-ish-hid: Reset enum_devices_done before enumeration
    
    [ Upstream commit 56e230723e3a818373bd62331bccb1c6d2b3881b ]
    
    Some systems have enabled ISH without any sensors. In this case sending
    HOSTIF_DM_ENUM_DEVICES results in 0 sensors. This triggers ISH hardware
    reset on subsequent enumeration after S3/S4 resume.
    
    The enum_devices_done flag was not reset before sending the
    HOSTIF_DM_ENUM_DEVICES command. On subsequent enumeration calls (such as
    after S3/S4 resume), this flag retains its previous true value, causing the
    wait loop to be skipped and returning prematurely to hid_ishtp_cl_init().
    If 0 HID devices are found, hid_ishtp_cl_init() skips getting HID device
    descriptors and sets init_done to true. When the delayed enumeration
    response arrives with init_done already true, the driver treats it as a bad
    packet and triggers an ISH hardware reset.
    
    Set enum_devices_done to false before sending the enumeration command,
    consistent with similar functions like ishtp_get_hid_descriptor() and
    ishtp_get_report_descriptor() which reset their respective flags.

KVM: Don't clobber irqfd routing type when deassigning irqfd [+ + +]
Author: Sean Christopherson <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Jan 13 09:46:05 2026 -0800

    KVM: Don't clobber irqfd routing type when deassigning irqfd
    
    commit b4d37cdb77a0015f51fee083598fa227cc07aaf1 upstream.
    
    When deassigning a KVM_IRQFD, don't clobber the irqfd's copy of the IRQ's
    routing entry as doing so breaks kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer() on x86
    and arm64, which explicitly look for KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_MSI.  Instead, to
    handle a concurrent routing update, verify that the irqfd is still active
    before consuming the routing information.  As evidenced by the x86 and
    arm64 bugs, and another bug in kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing() (see below),
    clobbering the entry type without notifying arch code is surprising and
    error prone.
    
    As a bonus, checking that the irqfd is active provides a convenient
    location for documenting _why_ KVM must not consume the routing entry for
    an irqfd that is in the process of being deassigned: once the irqfd is
    deleted from the list (which happens *before* the eventfd is detached), it
    will no longer receive updates via kvm_irq_routing_update(), and so KVM
    could deliver an event using stale routing information (relative to
    KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING returning to userspace).
    
    As an even better bonus, explicitly checking for the irqfd being active
    fixes a similar bug to the one the clobbering is trying to prevent: if an
    irqfd is deactivated, and then its routing is changed,
    kvm_irq_routing_update() won't invoke kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing()
    (because the irqfd isn't in the list).  And so if the irqfd is in bypass
    mode, IRQs will continue to be posted using the old routing information.
    
    As for kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), clobbering the routing type
    results in KVM incorrectly keeping the IRQ in bypass mode, which is
    especially problematic on AMD as KVM tracks IRQs that are being posted to
    a vCPU in a list whose lifetime is tied to the irqfd.
    
    Without the help of KASAN to detect use-after-free, the most common
    sympton on AMD is a NULL pointer deref in amd_iommu_update_ga() due to
    the memory for irqfd structure being re-allocated and zeroed, resulting
    in irqfd->irq_bypass_data being NULL when read by
    avic_update_iommu_vcpu_affinity():

    On Intel and arm64, the bug is less noisy, as the end result is that the
    device keeps posting IRQs to the vCPU even after it's been deassigned.
    
    Note, the worst of the breakage can be traced back to commit cb210737675e
    ("KVM: Pass new routing entries and irqfd when updating IRTEs"), as before
    that commit KVM would pull the routing information from the per-VM routing
    table.  But as above, similar bugs have existed since support for IRQ
    bypass was added.  E.g. if a routing change finished before irq_shutdown()
    invoked kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), VMX and SVM would see stale
    routing information and potentially leave the irqfd in bypass mode.
    
    Alternatively, x86 could be fixed by explicitly checking irq_bypass_vcpu
    instead of irq_entry.type in kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), and arm64
    could be modified to utilize irq_bypass_vcpu in a similar manner.  But (a)
    that wouldn't fix the routing updates bug, and (b) fixing core code doesn't

macvlan: fix error recovery in macvlan_common_newlink() [+ + +]

    macvlan: fix error recovery in macvlan_common_newlink()
    
    [ Upstream commit f8db6475a83649689c087a8f52486fcc53e627e9 ]
    
    valis provided a nice repro to crash the kernel:
    
    ip link add p1 type veth peer p2
    ip link set address 00:00:00:00:00:20 dev p1
    ip link set up dev p1
    ip link set up dev p2
    
    ip link add mv0 link p2 type macvlan mode source
    ip link add invalid% link p2 type macvlan mode source macaddr add 00:00:00:00:00:20
    
    ping -c1 -I p1 1.2.3.4
    
    He also gave a very detailed analysis:
    
    <quote valis>
    
    The issue is triggered when a new macvlan link is created  with
    MACVLAN_MODE_SOURCE mode and MACVLAN_MACADDR_ADD (or
    MACVLAN_MACADDR_SET) parameter, lower device already has a macvlan
    port and register_netdevice() called from macvlan_common_newlink()
    fails (e.g. because of the invalid link name).
    
    In this case macvlan_hash_add_source is called from
    macvlan_change_sources() / macvlan_common_newlink():
    
    This adds a reference to vlan to the port's vlan_source_hash using
    macvlan_source_entry.
    
    vlan is a pointer to the priv data of the link that is being created.
    
    When register_netdevice() fails, the error is returned from
    macvlan_newlink() to rtnl_newlink_create():
    
            if (ops->newlink)
                    err = ops->newlink(dev, ¶ms, extack);
            else
                    err = register_netdevice(dev);
            if (err < 0) {
                    free_netdev(dev);
                    goto out;
            }
    
    and free_netdev() is called, causing a kvfree() on the struct
    net_device that is still referenced in the source entry attached to
    the lower device's macvlan port.
    
    Now all packets sent on the macvlan port with a matching source mac
    address will trigger a use-after-free in macvlan_forward_source().
    
    </quote valis>
    
    With all that, my fix is to make sure we call macvlan_flush_sources()
    regardless of @create value whenever "goto destroy_macvlan_port;"
    path is taken.
    
    Many thanks to valis for following up on this issue.

net: liquidio: Initialize netdev pointer before queue setup [+ + +]
Author: Zilin Guan <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Jan 28 15:44:38 2026 +0000

    net: liquidio: Initialize netdev pointer before queue setup
    
    [ Upstream commit 926ede0c85e1e57c97d64d9612455267d597bb2c ]
    
    In setup_nic_devices(), the netdev is allocated using alloc_etherdev_mq().
    However, the pointer to this structure is stored in oct->props[i].netdev
    only after the calls to netif_set_real_num_rx_queues() and
    netif_set_real_num_tx_queues().
    
    If either of these functions fails, setup_nic_devices() returns an error
    without freeing the allocated netdev. Since oct->props[i].netdev is still
    NULL at this point, the cleanup function liquidio_destroy_nic_device()
    will fail to find and free the netdev, resulting in a memory leak.
    
    Fix this by initializing oct->props[i].netdev before calling the queue
    setup functions. This ensures that the netdev is properly accessible for
    cleanup in case of errors.
    
    Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
    and code review.

nvmet-tcp: don't map pages which can't come from HIGHMEM [+ + +]
Author: Fabio M. De Francesco <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Aug 31 00:05:33 2022 +0200

    nvmet-tcp: don't map pages which can't come from HIGHMEM
    
    [ Upstream commit 5bfaba275ae6486700194cad962574e3eb7ae60d ]
    
    kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().[1]
    
    There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as
    mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for
    synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the
    kmap’s pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully
    utilized until a slot becomes available.
    
    The pages which will be mapped are allocated in nvmet_tcp_map_data(),
    using the GFP_KERNEL flag. This assures that they cannot come from
    HIGHMEM. This imply that a straight page_address() can replace the kmap()
    of sg_page(sg) in nvmet_tcp_map_pdu_iovec(). As a side effect, we might
    also delete the field "nr_mapped" from struct "nvmet_tcp_cmd" because,
    after removing the kmap() calls, there would be no longer any need of it.
    
    In addition, there is no reason to use a kvec for the command receive
    data buffers iovec, use a bio_vec instead and let iov_iter handle the
    buffer mapping and data copy.
    
    Test with blktests on a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel with
    HIGHMEM64GB enabled.

    nvmet-tcp: fix regression in data_digest calculation
    
    [ Upstream commit ed0691cf55140ce0f3fb100225645d902cce904b ]
    
    Data digest calculation iterates over command mapped iovec. However
    since commit bac04454ef9f we unmap the iovec before we handle the data
    digest, and since commit 69b85e1f1d1d we clear nr_mapped when we unmap
    the iov.
    
    Instead of open-coding the command iov traversal, simply call
    crypto_ahash_digest with the command sg that is already allocated (we
    already do that for the send path). Rename nvmet_tcp_send_ddgst to
    nvmet_tcp_calc_ddgst and call it from send and recv paths.

    rbd: check for EOD after exclusive lock is ensured to be held
    
    commit bd3884a204c3b507e6baa9a4091aa927f9af5404 upstream.
    
    Similar to commit 870611e4877e ("rbd: get snapshot context after
    exclusive lock is ensured to be held"), move the "beyond EOD" check
    into the image request state machine so that it's performed after
    exclusive lock is ensured to be held.  This avoids various race

        rbd_assert(objno < rbd_dev->object_map_size);
    
    can be triggered if a close-to-EOD read gets queued right before the
    shrink is initiated and the EOD check is performed against an outdated
    mapping_size.  After the resize is done on the server side and exclusive
    lock is (re)acquired bringing along the new (now shrunk) object map, the
    read starts going through the state machine and rbd_obj_may_exist() gets
    invoked on an object that is out of bounds of rbd_dev->object_map array.

ring-buffer: Avoid softlockup in ring_buffer_resize() during memory free [+ + +]

    ring-buffer: Avoid softlockup in ring_buffer_resize() during memory free
    
    [ Upstream commit 6435ffd6c7fcba330dfa91c58dc30aed2df3d0bf ]
    
    When user resize all trace ring buffer through file 'buffer_size_kb',
    then in ring_buffer_resize(), kernel allocates buffer pages for each
    cpu in a loop.
    
    If the kernel preemption model is PREEMPT_NONE and there are many cpus
    and there are many buffer pages to be freed, it may not give up cpu
    for a long time and finally cause a softlockup.
    
    To avoid it, call cond_resched() after each cpu buffer free as Commit
    f6bd2c92488c ("ring-buffer: Avoid softlockup in ring_buffer_resize()")
    does.
    
    Detailed call trace as follow:

    scsi: target: iscsi: Fix use-after-free in iscsit_dec_conn_usage_count()
    
    [ Upstream commit 9411a89e9e7135cc459178fa77a3f1d6191ae903 ]
    
    In iscsit_dec_conn_usage_count(), the function calls complete() while
    holding the conn->conn_usage_lock. As soon as complete() is invoked, the
    waiter (such as iscsit_close_connection()) may wake up and proceed to free
    the iscsit_conn structure.
    
    If the waiter frees the memory before the current thread reaches
    spin_unlock_bh(), it results in a KASAN slab-use-after-free as the function
    attempts to release a lock within the already-freed connection structure.
    
    Fix this by releasing the spinlock before calling complete().

    [ Upstream commit 84dc6037390b8607c5551047d3970336cb51ba9a ]
    
    In iscsit_dec_session_usage_count(), the function calls complete() while
    holding the sess->session_usage_lock. Similar to the connection usage count
    logic, the waiter signaled by complete() (e.g., in the session release
    path) may wake up and free the iscsit_session structure immediately.
    
    This creates a race condition where the current thread may attempt to
    execute spin_unlock_bh() on a session structure that has already been
    deallocated, resulting in a KASAN slab-use-after-free.
    
    To resolve this, release the session_usage_lock before calling complete()
    to ensure all dereferences of the sess pointer are finished before the
    waiter is allowed to proceed with deallocation.

tracing: Fix ftrace event field alignments [+ + +]
Author: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Feb 7 14:14:41 2026 -0500

    tracing: Fix ftrace event field alignments
    
    [ Upstream commit 033c55fe2e326bea022c3cc5178ecf3e0e459b82 ]
    
    The fields of ftrace specific events (events used to save ftrace internal
    events like function traces and trace_printk) are generated similarly to
    how normal trace event fields are generated. That is, the fields are added
    to a trace_events_fields array that saves the name, offset, size,
    alignment and signness of the field. It is used to produce the output in
    the format file in tracefs so that tooling knows how to parse the binary
    data of the trace events.
    
    The issue is that some of the ftrace event structures are packed. The
    function graph exit event structures are one of them. The 64 bit calltime
    and rettime fields end up 4 byte aligned, but the algorithm to show to
    userspace shows them as 8 byte aligned.
    
    The macros that create the ftrace events has one for embedded structure
    fields. There's two macros for theses fields:
    
      __field_desc() and __field_packed()
    
    The difference of the latter macro is that it treats the field as packed.
    
    Rename that field to __field_desc_packed() and create replace the
    __field_packed() to be a normal field that is packed and have the calltime
    and rettime use those.
    
    This showed up on 32bit architectures for function graph time fields. It
    had:
    
     ~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/funcgraph_exit/format
    [..]
            field:unsigned long func;       offset:8;       size:4; signed:0;
            field:unsigned int depth;       offset:12;      size:4; signed:0;
            field:unsigned int overrun;     offset:16;      size:4; signed:0;
            field:unsigned long long calltime;      offset:24;      size:8; signed:0;
            field:unsigned long long rettime;       offset:32;      size:8; signed:0;
    
    Notice that overrun is at offset 16 with size 4, where in the structure
    calltime is at offset 20 (16 + 4), but it shows the offset at 24. That's
    because it used the alignment of unsigned long long when used as a
    declaration and not as a member of a structure where it would be aligned
    by word size (in this case 4).
    
    By using the proper structure alignment, the format has it at the correct
    offset:
    
     ~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/funcgraph_exit/format
    [..]
            field:unsigned long func;       offset:8;       size:4; signed:0;
            field:unsigned int depth;       offset:12;      size:4; signed:0;
            field:unsigned int overrun;     offset:16;      size:4; signed:0;
            field:unsigned long long calltime;      offset:20;      size:8; signed:0;
            field:unsigned long long rettime;       offset:28;      size:8; signed:0;

wifi: cfg80211: Fix bitrate calculation overflow for HE rates [+ + +]

    wifi: cfg80211: Fix bitrate calculation overflow for HE rates
    
    [ Upstream commit a3034bf0746d88a00cceda9541534a5721445a24 ]
    
    An integer overflow occurs in cfg80211_calculate_bitrate_he() when
    calculating bitrates for high throughput HE configurations.
    For example, with 160 MHz bandwidth, HE-MCS 13, HE-NSS 4, and HE-GI 0,
    the multiplication (result * rate->nss) overflows the 32-bit 'result'
    variable before division by 8, leading to significantly underestimated
    bitrate values.
    
    The overflow occurs because the NSS multiplication operates on a 32-bit
    integer that cannot accommodate intermediate values exceeding
    4,294,967,295. When overflow happens, the value wraps around, producing
    incorrect bitrates for high MCS and NSS combinations.
    
    Fix this by utilizing the 64-bit 'tmp' variable for the NSS
    multiplication and subsequent divisions via do_div(). This approach
    preserves full precision throughout the entire calculation, with the
    final value assigned to 'result' only after completing all operations.

    [ Upstream commit a203dbeeca15a9b924f0d51f510921f4bae96801 ]
    
    In __sta_info_destroy_part2(), station statistics are requested after the
    IEEE80211_STA_NONE -> IEEE80211_STA_NOTEXIST transition. This is
    problematic because the driver may be unable to handle the request due to
    the STA being in the NOTEXIST state (i.e. if the driver destroys the
    underlying data when transitioning to NOTEXIST).
    
    Move the statistics collection to before the state transition to avoid
    this issue.

    [ Upstream commit 3f3d8ff31496874a69b131866f62474eb24ed20a ]
    
    In reconfig, in case the driver asks to disconnect during the reconfig,
    all the keys of the interface are marked as tainted.
    Then ieee80211_reenable_keys will loop over all the interface keys, and
    for each one it will
    a) increment crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt
    b) call ieee80211_key_enable_hw_accel, which in turn will detect that
    this key is tainted, so it will mark it as "not in hardware", which is
    paired with crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt incrementation, so we get two
    incrementations for each tainted key.
    Then we get a warning in ieee80211_free_keys.
    
    To fix it, don't increment the count in ieee80211_reenable_keys for
    tainted keys
