The Linux console's VT102 implementation already consumes OSC
("Operating System Command") sequences, probably because that's how
palette changes are transmitted.
In addition to OSC, there are three other major clases of ANSI control
strings: APC ("Application Program Command"), PM ("Privacy Message"),
and DCS ("Device Control String"). They are handled similarly to OSC in
terms of termination.
Source: vt100.net
Add three new enumerated states, one for each of these types. All three
are handled the same way right now--they simply consume input until
terminated. I hope to expand upon this firmament in the future. Add
new predicate ansi_control_string(), returning true for any of these
states. Replace explicit checks against ESosc with calls to this
function. Transition to these states appropriately from the escape
initiation (ESesc) state.
This was motivated by the following Notcurses bugs:
https://github.com/dankamongmen/notcurses/issues/2050
https://github.com/dankamongmen/notcurses/issues/1828
https://github.com/dankamongmen/notcurses/issues/2069
where standard VT sequences are not consumed by the Linux console. It's
not necessary that the Linux console *support* these sequences, but it
ought *consume* these well-specified classes of sequences.
Tested by sending a variety of escape sequences to the console, and
verifying that they still worked, or were now properly consumed.
Verified that the escapes were properly terminated at a generic level.
Verified that the Notcurses tools continued to show expected output on
the Linux console, except now without escape bleedthrough.

This just does the "if the architecture does efficient unaligned
handling, start the memcmp using 'unsigned long' accesses", since
Nikolay Borisov found a load that cares.
This is basically the minimal patch, and limited to architectures that
are known to not have slow unaligned handling. We've had the stupid
byte-at-a-time version forever, and nobody has ever even noticed before,
so let's keep the fix minimal.
A potential further improvement would be to align one of the sources in
order to at least minimize unaligned cases, but the only real case of
bigger memcmp() users seems to be the FIDEDUPERANGE ioctl(). As David
Sterba says, the dedupe ioctl is typically called on ranges spanning
many pages so the common case will all be page-aligned anyway.
All the relevant architectures select HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS,
so I'm not going to worry about the combination of a very rare use-case
and a rare architecture until somebody actually hits it. Particularly
since Nikolay also tested the more complex patch with extra alignment
handling code, and it only added overhead.

When new work is added, io_wqe_enqueue() checks if we need to wake or
create a new worker. But that check is done outside the lock that
otherwise synchronizes us with a worker going to sleep, so we can end
up in the following situation:
CPU0 CPU1
lock
insert work
unlock
atomic_read(nr_running) != 0
lock
atomic_dec(nr_running)
no wakeup needed
Hold the wqe lock around the "need to wakeup" check. Then we can also get
rid of the temporary work_flags variable, as we know the work will remain
valid as long as we hold the lock.

For the two places where new workers are created, we diligently check if
we are allowed to create a new worker. If we're currently at the limit
of how many workers of a given type we can have, then we don't create
any new ones.
If you have a mixed workload with various types of bound and unbounded
work, then it can happen that a worker finishes one type of work and
is then transitioned to the other type. For this case, we don't check
if we are actually allowed to do so. This can cause io-wq to temporarily
exceed the allowed number of workers for a given type.
When retrieving work, check that the types match. If they don't, check
if we are allowed to transition to the other type. If not, then don't
handle the new work.

These checks are still not strict enough. The main problem is that if
"cb->type == QRTR_TYPE_NEW_SERVER" is true then "len - hdrlen" is
guaranteed to be 4 but we need to be at least 16 bytes. In fact, we
can reject everything smaller than sizeof(*pkt) which is 20 bytes.
Also I don't like the ALIGN(size, 4). It's better to just insist that

Even after commit 6457378fe796 ("ipv4: use siphash instead of Jenkins in
fnhe_hashfun()"), an attacker can still use brute force to learn
some secrets from a victim linux host.
One way to defeat these attacks is to make the max depth of the hash
table bucket a random value.
Before this patch, each bucket of the hash table used to store exceptions
could contain 6 items under attack.
After the patch, each bucket would contains a random number of items,
between 6 and 10. The attacker can no longer infer secrets.
This is slightly increasing memory size used by the hash table,
by 50% in average, we do not expect this to be a problem.
This patch is more complex than the prior one (IPv6 equivalent),
because IPv4 was reusing the oldest entry.
Since we need to be able to evict more than one entry per
update_or_create_fnhe() call, I had to replace
fnhe_oldest() with fnhe_remove_oldest().
Also note that we will queue extra kfree_rcu() calls under stress,
which hopefully wont be a too big issue.

Today blkfront will trust the backend to send only sane response data.
In order to avoid privilege escalations or crashes in case of malicious
backends verify the data to be within expected limits. Especially make
sure that the response always references an outstanding request.
Introduce a new state of the ring BLKIF_STATE_ERROR which will be
switched to in case an inconsistency is being detected. Recovering from
this state is possible only via removing and adding the virtual device
again (e.g. via a suspend/resume cycle).
Make all warning messages issued due to valid error responses rate

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next:

2) Missing counters and timestamp in nfnetlink_queue and _log conntrack

3) Missing error check for xt_register_template() in iptables mangle,

4) Add netfilter hooks for the SRv6 lightweigh tunnel driver, from
Ryoga Sato. The hooks are enabled via nf_hooks_lwtunnel sysctl
to make sure existing netfilter rulesets do not break. There is

Xen PV guests are specifying the highest used PFN via the max_pfn
field in shared_info. This value is used by the Xen tools when saving
or migrating the guest.
Unfortunately this field is misnamed, as in reality it is specifying
the number of pages (including any memory holes) of the guest, so it
is the highest used PFN + 1. Renaming isn't possible, as this is a
public Xen hypervisor interface which needs to be kept stable.
The kernel will set the value correctly initially at boot time, but
when adding more pages (e.g. due to memory hotplug or ballooning) a
real PFN number is stored in max_pfn. This is done when expanding the
p2m array, and the PFN stored there is even possibly wrong, as it
should be the last possible PFN of the just added P2M frame, and not
one which led to the P2M expansion.
Fix that by setting shared_info->max_pfn to the last possible PFN + 1.

The driver is being passed interrupts, then looking up the
same interrupts as GPIOs a second time to convert them into
interrupts and set properties on them.
This is pointless: the GPIO and irqchip APIs of a GPIO chip
are orthogonal. Just request the interrupts and be done
with it, drop reliance on any GPIO functions or definitions.
Use devres-managed functions and add a small devress quirk
to unregister the clock as well and we can rely on devres
to handle all the resources and cut down a bunch of
boilerplate in the process.

After the recent ixp4xx cleanups, the ptp driver has gained a
build failure in some configurations:
drivers/net/ethernet/xscale/ptp_ixp46x.c: In function 'ptp_ixp_init':
drivers/net/ethernet/xscale/ptp_ixp46x.c:290:51: error: 'IXP4XX_TIMESYNC_BASE_VIRT' undeclared (first use in this function)
Avoid the last bit of hardcoded constants from platform headers
by turning the ptp driver bit into a platform driver and passing
the IRQ and MMIO address as resources.
This is a bit tricky:
- The interface between the two drivers is now the new
ixp46x_ptp_find() function, replacing the global
ixp46x_phc_index variable. The call is done as late
as possible, in hwtstamp_set(), to ensure that the
ptp device is fully probed.
- As the ptp driver is now called by the network driver, the
link dependency is reversed, which in turn requires a small
Makefile hack
- The GPIO number is still left hardcoded. This is clearly not
great, but it can be addressed later. Note that commit 98ac0cc270b7
("ARM: ixp4xx: Convert to MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER") changed the
IRQ number to something meaningless. Passing the correct IRQ
in a resource fixes this.
- When the PTP driver is disabled, ethtool .get_ts_info()
now correctly lists only software timestamping regardless
of the hardware.

====================
bnxt_en: Implement new driver APIs to send FW messages
The current driver APIs to send messages to the firmware allow only one
outstanding message in flight. There is only one buffer for the firmware
response for each firmware channel. To send a firmware message, all
callers must take a mutex and it is released after the firmware response
has been read. This scheme does not allow multiple firmware messages
in flight. Firmware may take a long time to respond to some messages
(e.g. NVRAM related ones) and this causes the mutex to be held for
a long time, blocking other callers.
This patchset intoduces the new driver APIs to address the above
shortcomings. The new APIs are compatible with new and old firmware.
But the new deferred firmware response mechanism will require newer
firmware in order to allow multiple outstanding firmware commands.
All callers are updated to use the new APIs.

completion and reduce the scope of the hwrm_cmd_lock mutex so that it
protects only the request mailbox. The mailbox is free to use for one
or more concurrent commands after receiving deferred response events.
For uniformity and completeness, use the same pending list for
collecting completions for commands that respond via a completion ring.
These commands are only used for freeing rings and for IRQ test and
we only support one such command in flight.
Note deferred responses are also only supported on the main channel.
The secondary channel (KONG) does not support deferred responses.

There are no longer any callers relying on the old API.
