[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-6.6] apparmor: shift ouid when mediating hard links in userns

[Sasha Levin]

From: Gabriel Totev <gabriel.totev@zetier.com>

[ Upstream commit c5bf96d20fd787e4909b755de4705d52f3458836 ]

When using AppArmor profiles inside an unprivileged container,
the link operation observes an unshifted ouid.
(tested with LXD and Incus)

For example, root inside container and uid 1000000 outside, with
`owner /root/link l,` profile entry for ln:

/root$ touch chain && ln chain link
==> dmesg
apparmor="DENIED" operation="link" class="file"
namespace="root//lxd-feet_<var-snap-lxd-common-lxd>" profile="linkit"
name="/root/link" pid=1655 comm="ln" requested_mask="l" denied_mask="l"
fsuid=1000000 ouid=0 [<== should be 1000000] target="/root/chain"

Fix by mapping inode uid of old_dentry in aa_path_link() rather than
using it directly, similarly to how it's mapped in __file_path_perm()
later in the file.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:

1. **Clear Bug Fix**: This fixes a real bug where AppArmor incorrectly
   reports the unshifted uid when mediating hard link operations inside
   user namespaces/containers. The commit message provides a concrete
   example showing ouid=0 instead of the expected ouid=1000000 in
   container logs.

2. **Security Impact**: This is a security-relevant bug that causes
   AppArmor policy enforcement to behave incorrectly in containerized
   environments. The owner-based AppArmor rules (like `owner /root/link
   l,`) won't work correctly because the uid comparison is done with the
   wrong (unshifted) value.

3. **Minimal and Contained Fix**: The change is small and surgical - it
   only modifies the aa_path_link() function to properly map the inode
   uid through the mount's idmapping, following the exact same pattern
   already used in __file_path_perm():
   - Uses `i_uid_into_vfsuid(mnt_idmap(target.mnt), inode)` to get the
     vfsuid
   - Converts it back with `vfsuid_into_kuid(vfsuid)` for the path_cond
     structure

4. **No New Features or Architecture Changes**: This is purely a bug fix
   that makes aa_path_link() consistent with how __file_path_perm()
   already handles uid mapping. No new functionality is added.

5. **Container/User Namespace Compatibility**: With the widespread use
   of containers (LXD, Incus, Docker with userns), this bug affects many
   production systems. The fix ensures AppArmor policies work correctly
   in these environments.

6. **Low Risk**: The change follows an established pattern in the
   codebase (from __file_path_perm) and only affects the specific case
   of hard link permission checks in user namespaces. The risk of
   regression is minimal.

7. **Clear Testing**: The commit message indicates this was tested with
   LXD and Incus containers, showing the issue is reproducible and the
   fix validated.

The code change is straightforward - replacing direct access to
`d_backing_inode(old_dentry)->i_uid` with proper idmapping-aware
conversion that respects user namespace uid shifts. This makes
aa_path_link() consistent with other AppArmor file operations that
already handle idmapped mounts correctly.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.10] md: dm-zoned-target: Initialize return variable r to avoid uninitialized use

[Sasha Levin]

From: Purva Yeshi <purvayeshi550@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 487767bff572d46f7c37ad846c4078f6d6c9cc55 ]

Fix Smatch-detected error:
drivers/md/dm-zoned-target.c:1073 dmz_iterate_devices()
error: uninitialized symbol 'r'.

Smatch detects a possible use of the uninitialized variable 'r' in
dmz_iterate_devices() because if dmz->nr_ddevs is zero, the loop is
skipped and 'r' is returned without being set, leading to undefined
behavior.

Initialize 'r' to 0 before the loop. This ensures that if there are no
devices to iterate over, the function still returns a defined value.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees. Here's my
extensive analysis:

## Analysis of the Bug

The commit fixes a genuine uninitialized variable bug in
`dmz_iterate_devices()` function in drivers/md/dm-zoned-target.c:1073.
The bug occurs when:

1. The variable `r` is declared but not initialized at line 1065
2. If `dmz->nr_ddevs` is 0, the for loop at line 1067 is never entered
3. The function returns `r` at line 1073, which contains garbage data

This is a clear programming error that can lead to undefined behavior.
The function could return any arbitrary value when there are no devices
to iterate over.

## Why This Should Be Backported

1. **Real Bug Fix**: This fixes an actual bug that can cause
   unpredictable behavior. An uninitialized return value can lead to:
   - Incorrect error handling by callers
   - Potential system instability
   - Unpredictable behavior in device mapper operations

2. **Small and Contained Fix**: The fix is minimal - just initializing
   `r` to 0. This follows the pattern used in other similar
   iterate_devices implementations like `dm-cache-target.c:3438` where
   `int r = 0;` is properly initialized.

3. **No Side Effects**: The change has no architectural impact or side
   effects. It simply ensures the function returns a defined value (0)
   when there are no devices to iterate, which is the expected behavior.

4. **Affects Users**: While the condition (nr_ddevs == 0) might be rare,
   it's still a possible configuration that could affect users of dm-
   zoned devices. The undefined behavior could manifest in various ways
   depending on what's in memory.

5. **Static Analysis Finding**: This was caught by Smatch static
   analysis, indicating it's a real code quality issue that should be
   fixed.

6. **Follows Stable Rules**: The fix is:
   - Obviously correct
   - Fixes a real bug (uninitialized variable use)
   - Minimal risk of regression
   - Small change (1 line)
   - No new features or architectural changes

## Technical Context

Looking at the code structure, `nr_ddevs` is set from `argc` in line
858, which must be at least 1 based on the check at line 835. However,
there could be error paths or future code changes that might result in
this function being called with nr_ddevs == 0, making this defensive
programming important.

The fix aligns with how other device mapper targets handle their
iterate_devices functions, where the return value is properly
initialized before use.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.4] i3c: don't fail if GETHDRCAP is unsupported

[Sasha Levin]

From: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@sang-engineering.com>

[ Upstream commit 447270cdb41b1c8c3621bb14b93a6749f942556e ]

'I3C_BCR_HDR_CAP' is still spec v1.0 and has been renamed to 'advanced
capabilities' in v1.1 onwards. The ST pressure sensor LPS22DF does not
have HDR, but has the 'advanced cap' bit set. The core still wants to
get additional information using the CCC 'GETHDRCAP' (or GETCAPS in v1.1
onwards). Not all controllers support this CCC and will notify the upper
layers about it. For instantiating the device, we can ignore this
unsupported CCC as standard communication will work. Without this patch,
the device will not be instantiated at all.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

Based on my analysis of the commit and the surrounding code, here's my
assessment:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:

1. **Fixes a real bug that prevents device instantiation**: The commit
   message clearly states that "Without this patch, the device will not
   be instantiated at all." This is a concrete functionality issue where
   legitimate I3C devices (like the ST pressure sensor LPS22DF) cannot
   be used with controllers that don't support the GETHDRCAP CCC
   command.

2. **Small and contained fix**: The change is minimal - only 2 lines
   changed:
   - Line 1441: Changed from `if (ret)` to `if (ret && ret !=
     -ENOTSUPP)`
   - This allows the function to continue when GETHDRCAP returns
     -ENOTSUPP instead of failing

3. **Clear regression prevention**: The fix prevents device
   initialization failure for hardware combinations that should work.
   The I3C spec evolved from v1.0 to v1.1, and this handles backward
   compatibility gracefully.

4. **No architectural changes**: This is a simple error handling
   adjustment that doesn't change any core functionality or introduce
   new features.

5. **Fixes interoperability issue**: The commit addresses a real-world
   hardware compatibility problem between certain I3C controllers and
   devices, which is exactly the type of bug that stable kernels should
   fix.

6. **Low risk of regression**: The change only affects the error path
   when GETHDRCAP fails with -ENOTSUPP. It doesn't change behavior for
   successful cases or other error conditions.

7. **Follows stable rules**:
   - It's obviously correct (treats unsupported CCC as non-fatal)
   - It's tiny (2-line change)
   - Fixes one specific issue
   - Fixes a real bug that prevents hardware from working

The commit allows I3C device initialization to proceed even when the
controller doesn't support the GETHDRCAP command, which is reasonable
since HDR capabilities are optional and standard I3C communication will
still work without them.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit is a clear candidate for backporting to stable kernel trees.
Here's my extensive analysis:

## Bug Analysis

The commit fixes a logic error in the error handling of four device-
mapper path selector modules. Looking at the code changes:

1. **Original buggy behavior**: When `dm_register_path_selector()` fails
   (returns r < 0), the code would:
   - Print "register failed" error message
   - **Continue to print "version X loaded" message**
   - Return the error code

2. **Fixed behavior**: When registration fails:
   - Print "register failed" error message
   - **Return immediately with the error code**
   - Skip the misleading "loaded" message

## Why This Should Be Backported

1. **Clear Bug Fix**: This is a straightforward bug fix that corrects
   misleading log messages. When module registration fails, it
   incorrectly reports success with "version X loaded".

2. **Small and Contained**: The fix is minimal - just adding an early
   return statement in four similar init functions:
   - `dm_hst_init()` in dm-ps-historical-service-time.c
   - `dm_ql_init()` in dm-ps-queue-length.c
   - `dm_rr_init()` in dm-ps-round-robin.c
   - `dm_st_init()` in dm-ps-service-time.c

3. **No Side Effects**: The change only affects error path behavior and
   logging. It doesn't introduce new functionality or change any
   successful operation paths.

4. **User-Visible Issue**: This fixes a user-visible problem where
   system logs would incorrectly indicate a module loaded successfully
   when it actually failed.

5. **Consistent Pattern**: All four files have the identical bug and
   identical fix, showing this is a systematic issue that should be
   addressed.

6. **Low Risk**: The change is trivial - adding an early return on
   error. There's virtually no risk of regression since:
   - It only changes behavior when registration already failed
   - The function already returns the error code at the end
   - This just makes it return earlier without printing the misleading
     message

7. **Affects Core Subsystem**: Device-mapper is a critical storage
   subsystem, and accurate error reporting is important for system
   administrators debugging storage issues.

The commit perfectly fits stable kernel criteria: it's a small, obvious
fix for a real bug that affects users (through misleading log messages),
with minimal risk of introducing new problems.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.10] rtc: ds1307: handle oscillator stop flag (OSF) for ds1341

[Sasha Levin]

From: Meagan Lloyd <meaganlloyd@linux.microsoft.com>

[ Upstream commit 523923cfd5d622b8f4ba893fdaf29fa6adeb8c3e ]

In using CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS, rtc_hctosys() will sync the RTC time to the
kernel time as long as rtc_read_time() succeeds. In some power loss
situations, our supercapacitor-backed DS1342 RTC comes up with either an
unpredictable future time or the default 01/01/00 from the datasheet.
The oscillator stop flag (OSF) is set in these scenarios due to the
power loss and can be used to determine the validity of the RTC data.

This change expands the oscillator stop flag (OSF) handling that has
already been implemented for some chips to the ds1341 chip (DS1341 and
DS1342 share a datasheet). This handling manages the validity of the RTC
data in .read_time and .set_time based on the OSF.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:

1. **Bug Fix**: This commit fixes a real bug where the DS1341/DS1342 RTC
   can report invalid time data after power loss without properly
   checking the oscillator stop flag (OSF). The commit message clearly
   describes the problem: "In some power loss situations, our
   supercapacitor-backed DS1342 RTC comes up with either an
   unpredictable future time or the default 01/01/00."

2. **Data Corruption Prevention**: Without this fix, systems using
   DS1341/DS1342 RTCs can have incorrect system time after power loss,
   which could lead to data corruption, incorrect timestamps, or system
   malfunction. This is particularly critical for systems using
   CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS.

3. **Minimal Risk**: The change is very small and contained - it only
   adds OSF handling for the ds1341 chip type in two switch statements
   (ds1307_get_time:282-287 and ds1307_set_time:380-383). The pattern
   exactly follows the existing OSF handling already implemented for
   ds_1338, ds_1340, and ds_1388 chips.

4. **Established Pattern**: The commit follows an established pattern in
   the driver. Looking at the code, OSF handling is already implemented
   for:
   - ds_1338: Uses DS1338_BIT_OSF in DS1307_REG_CONTROL
   - ds_1340: Uses DS1340_BIT_OSF in DS1340_REG_FLAG
   - ds_1388: Uses DS1388_BIT_OSF in DS1388_REG_FLAG
   - And now ds_1341: Uses DS1337_BIT_OSF in DS1337_REG_STATUS

5. **No New Features**: This is purely a bug fix - it doesn't add any
   new functionality, just ensures existing functionality (reading valid
   time) works correctly after power loss.

6. **Previous Similar Fixes**: The git history shows similar OSF fixes
   have been made before, such as commit f471b05f76e4 ("rtc: ds1307:
   Clear OSF flag on DS1388 when setting time"), indicating this is a
   known class of issues that needs fixing.

7. **Hardware-Specific Fix**: This only affects systems with
   DS1341/DS1342 RTCs, so there's no risk to systems using other RTC
   chips. The change is guarded by the chip type check.

The commit meets all the criteria for stable backporting: it fixes a
real bug that affects users, the fix is small and self-contained, it
doesn't introduce new features or architectural changes, and follows
established patterns in the codebase.

Hi Sasha,

Without the first patch of the series, the OSF bit will get cleared in probe, so for it to meaningfully handle an invalid RTC, we'll need to take the first patch too.

The upstream commit is 48458654659c9c2e149c211d86637f1592470da5

https://lore.kernel.org/r/1749665656-30108-2-git-send-email-meaganlloyd@linux.microsoft.com

It removes the clear of the OSF status flag in probe in the shared ds_1337, ds_1339, ds_1341, ds_3231 switch case block.

Thank you,

Meagan

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.4] i3c: add missing include to internal header

[Sasha Levin]

From: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@sang-engineering.com>

[ Upstream commit 3b661ca549b9e5bb11d0bc97ada6110aac3282d2 ]

LKP found a random config which failed to build because IO accessors
were not defined:

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:

1. **Fixes a real build failure**: The commit fixes an actual
   compilation error where `writesl` function is used without including
   the proper header (`<linux/io.h>`). This is a concrete build
   regression that prevents kernel compilation in certain
   configurations.

2. **Minimal and safe change**: The fix is extremely simple - it only
   adds a single `#include <linux/io.h>` line to the internals.h header
   file. This is a one-line change with virtually no risk of introducing
   regressions.

3. **Detected by kernel test robot**: The issue was found by the Linux
   Kernel Test Robot (LKP), indicating it affects real-world build
   configurations that are tested regularly. The error message shows:
  ```
  drivers/i3c/internals.h:35:9: error: implicit declaration of function
  'writesl'
  ```

4. **Affects core I3C infrastructure**: The internals.h header is
   included by core I3C files (master.c and device.c), so a build
   failure here can prevent the entire I3C subsystem from compiling.

5. **Recent regression**: Looking at the git history, the
   `i3c_writel_fifo()` and `i3c_readl_fifo()` functions were recently
   added in commit 733b439375b4, and are already being used by I3C
   controller drivers (dw-i3c-master.c and cdns-i3c-master.c as shown in
   commits 6e055b1fb2fc and c20d3fa70491). This missing include is a
   regression that breaks builds after these recent changes.

6. **Clear stable backport criteria**: This meets the stable kernel
   rules perfectly:
   - It fixes a real bug (build failure)
   - It's obviously correct (missing include for used functions)
   - It's a minimal change (1 line)
   - No new features or architectural changes
   - Zero risk of functional regression

The commit is a textbook example of what should be backported to stable
trees - a simple, obvious fix for a build regression with no side
effects.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees. Here's my
extensive analysis:

## Bug Analysis

The commit fixes a serious uninitialized variable bug in
`i3c_i2c_notifier_call()`. Looking at the code:

1. **The Bug**: The function declares `int ret` at line 2449 but doesn't
   initialize it. The switch statement only handles two cases
   (`BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE` and `BUS_NOTIFY_DEL_DEVICE`), leaving `ret`
   uninitialized for any other action values.

2. **When It Triggers**: Since this notifier is registered with
   `bus_register_notifier(&i2c_bus_type, &i2cdev_notifier)`, it receives
   ALL bus notification events for I2C devices, including:
   - `BUS_NOTIFY_REMOVED_DEVICE`
   - `BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER`
   - `BUS_NOTIFY_BOUND_DRIVER`
   - `BUS_NOTIFY_UNBIND_DRIVER`
   - `BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER`
   - `BUS_NOTIFY_DRIVER_NOT_BOUND`

3. **Impact**: When any of these unhandled actions occur, the function
   returns an uninitialized stack value, which could:
   - Accidentally return `NOTIFY_STOP` or `NOTIFY_BAD`, halting the
     notification chain
   - Cause unpredictable behavior in the device/driver binding process
   - Lead to intermittent, hard-to-debug failures

## Backport Criteria Analysis

1. **Fixes a real bug**: ✓ Yes - fixes an uninitialized variable that
   causes undefined behavior
2. **Small and contained**: ✓ Yes - adds only 2 lines (default case
   returning -EINVAL)
3. **No side effects**: ✓ Correct - the fix properly handles unexpected
   actions by returning an error
4. **No architectural changes**: ✓ Correct - simple bug fix, no design
   changes
5. **Critical subsystem**: ✓ Yes - affects I3C/I2C device management and
   driver binding
6. **Follows stable rules**: ✓ Yes - important bugfix with minimal risk

## Additional Context

- The bug was introduced in commit 72a4501b5d08 ("i3c: support
  dynamically added i2c devices") in January 2022
- The I3C subsystem has had other uninitialized variable fixes (e.g.,
  commit 6cbf8b38dfe3)
- This is a classic compiler warning fix that prevents real runtime
  issues
- The fix is conservative, returning -EINVAL for unexpected actions
  rather than silently ignoring them

This is exactly the type of bug that stable kernels should fix: a real
issue with unpredictable runtime consequences, fixed with a minimal,
safe change.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.4] PCI: pnv_php: Work around switches with broken presence detection

[Sasha Levin]

From: Timothy Pearson <tpearson@raptorengineering.com>

[ Upstream commit 80f9fc2362797538ebd4fd70a1dfa838cc2c2cdb ]

The Microsemi Switchtec PM8533 PFX 48xG3 [11f8:8533] PCIe switch system
was observed to incorrectly assert the Presence Detect Set bit in its
capabilities when tested on a Raptor Computing Systems Blackbird system,
resulting in the hot insert path never attempting a rescan of the bus
and any downstream devices not being re-detected.

Work around this by additionally checking whether the PCIe data link is
active or not when performing presence detection on downstream switches'
ports, similar to the pciehp_hpc.c driver.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit is suitable for backporting to stable kernel trees based on
the following analysis:

## Commit Analysis

### 1. Bug Fix Nature
The commit fixes a real hardware bug where the Microsemi Switchtec
PM8533 PFX 48xG3 PCIe switch incorrectly reports presence detection.
This causes downstream devices to not be re-detected after hot
insertion, which is a significant functional issue affecting users.

### 2. Small and Contained Fix
The patch adds only 33 lines of code:
- Adds a new helper function `pcie_check_link_active()` (11 lines)
- Modifies `pnv_php_get_adapter_state()` with a targeted workaround (13
  lines)
- The changes are confined to a single file:
  `drivers/pci/hotplug/pnv_php.c`

### 3. Clear and Minimal Side Effects
The workaround is:
- Only activated for specific hardware (downstream PCIe ports)
- Only when presence detection returns EMPTY
- Uses an additional check (link active status) as a fallback
- Similar approach already proven in pciehp_hpc.c driver

### 4. Hardware Quirk Fix
This is explicitly a hardware quirk workaround for broken hardware
(Microsemi Switchtec PM8533), which is one of the accepted categories
for stable backports according to stable kernel rules.

### 5. No Architectural Changes
The commit:
- Does not introduce new features
- Does not change any APIs or interfaces
- Does not modify core kernel infrastructure
- Simply adds a fallback detection mechanism

### 6. Tested Solution
The commit message indicates this was "observed" and tested on a Raptor
Computing Systems Blackbird system, suggesting real-world validation.

## Stable Tree Compliance

According to Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst, this patch
meets the criteria:
- Fixes a real bug that bothers people (hotplug detection failure)
- Is a hardware quirk fix (explicitly allowed)
- Is under 100 lines with context
- Is obviously correct (uses established pattern from pciehp_hpc.c)
- Has clear user impact (devices not being detected after hot insertion)

The workaround pattern of checking link active status when presence
detection fails is a well-established approach in PCIe hotplug drivers,
making this a low-risk backport candidate.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-6.1] module: Prevent silent truncation of module name in delete_module(2)

[Sasha Levin]

From: Petr Pavlu <petr.pavlu@suse.com>

[ Upstream commit a6323bd4e611567913e23df5b58f2d4e4da06789 ]

Passing a module name longer than MODULE_NAME_LEN to the delete_module
syscall results in its silent truncation. This really isn't much of
a problem in practice, but it could theoretically lead to the removal of an
incorrect module. It is more sensible to return ENAMETOOLONG or ENOENT in
such a case.

Update the syscall to return ENOENT, as documented in the delete_module(2)
man page to mean "No module by that name exists." This is appropriate
because a module with a name longer than MODULE_NAME_LEN cannot be loaded
in the first place.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

Based on my analysis, here's my assessment:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:

1. **Security Fix for Silent Truncation**: The commit fixes a security-
   relevant issue where module names longer than MODULE_NAME_LEN (56
   bytes on 64-bit systems) are silently truncated in the
   delete_module() syscall. This could theoretically lead to
   unintentionally removing the wrong module if two modules share the
   same truncated prefix.

2. **Minimal and Contained Change**: The fix is very small and localized
   - it only modifies the delete_module syscall implementation in
   kernel/module/main.c. The changes are:
   - Changes from `strncpy_from_user(name, name_user,
     MODULE_NAME_LEN-1)` to `strncpy_from_user(name, name_user,
     MODULE_NAME_LEN)`
   - Adds proper length checking: `if (len == 0 || len ==
     MODULE_NAME_LEN) return -ENOENT;`
   - Returns the correct error code (ENOENT) for oversized names

3. **Follows Stable Tree Rules**:
   - Fixes a bug that could affect users (incorrect module removal)
   - Very low risk of regression - the change only affects error
     handling for invalid input
   - No new features or architectural changes
   - Improves consistency with documented behavior (delete_module(2) man
     page)

4. **Prevents Inconsistent Behavior**: The commit message correctly
   points out that modules with names longer than MODULE_NAME_LEN cannot
   be loaded in the first place, so returning ENOENT for such names in
   delete_module makes the behavior consistent across module operations.

5. **Clear Bug Fix**: The old code would accept a 57+ character module
   name, truncate it to 56 characters, and potentially remove a
   different module. The new code properly rejects such names with
   ENOENT, preventing this dangerous silent truncation.

The change is defensive programming that prevents a potential security
issue without introducing any backward compatibility concerns, making it
an ideal candidate for stable backporting.

   it fixes a build failure with `-Werror=unused-variable`. When
   `CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR_DEBUG_ASSERTS` is disabled, the
   `AA_BUG_FMT` macro becomes just `no_printk(fmt, ##args)`, which
   doesn't evaluate the condition `X`. This causes the `sock` variable
   in `__file_sock_perm()` to be unused, triggering a compiler warning
   that becomes an error with `-Werror`.

2. **The fix is minimal and contained**: The change only modifies the
   `AA_BUG_FMT` macro definition when debug is disabled, adding
   `BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID(X)` which forces the compiler to evaluate the
   condition without generating any runtime code. This is a well-
   established pattern in the kernel (as seen in `VM_BUG_ON` and similar
   macros in `include/linux/mmdebug.h`).

3. **No functional changes or side effects**: The fix doesn't change any
   runtime behavior. `BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID(e)` is defined as
   `((void)(sizeof((__force long)(e))))` which only evaluates the
   expression at compile time to ensure it's valid, without generating
   any code.

4. **Follows established kernel patterns**: The commit message states
   "This follows the established practice," and indeed, examining other
   kernel debug macros like `VM_BUG_ON` shows they use the exact same
   pattern - using `BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID` when debug is disabled to
   ensure the condition is still evaluated by the compiler.

5. **Low risk**: This is a compile-time only change that prevents build
   failures. It cannot introduce runtime regressions since it generates
   no runtime code.

6. **Affects a security subsystem**: AppArmor is a security module, and
   build failures in security code can prevent users from building
   kernels with their desired security configuration.

The commit is a classic example of a safe, minimal fix that resolves a
real problem without introducing new risks, making it an ideal candidate
for stable backporting.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-6.6] powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device hotplug safe

[Sasha Levin]

From: Timothy Pearson <tpearson@raptorengineering.com>

[ Upstream commit 1010b4c012b0d78dfb9d3132b49aa2ef024a07a7 ]

Multiple race conditions existed between the PCIe hotplug driver and the
EEH driver, leading to a variety of kernel oopses of the same general
nature:

<pcie device unplug>
<eeh driver trigger>
<hotplug removal trigger>
<pcie tree reconfiguration>
<eeh recovery next step>
<oops in EEH driver bus iteration loop>

A second class of oops is also seen when the underlying bus disappears
during device recovery.

Refactor the EEH module to be PCI rescan and remove safe.  Also clean
up a few minor formatting / readability issues.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:

## 1. **Critical Bug Fix for Race Conditions**
The commit explicitly fixes "Multiple race conditions" between the PCIe
hotplug driver and the EEH (Enhanced Error Handling) driver that lead to
kernel oopses. These are serious kernel crashes that can cause system
instability or complete system failure.

## 2. **Clear Bug Symptoms Described**
The commit message describes two classes of kernel oopses:
- Race conditions during concurrent PCIe device unplug and EEH recovery
  operations
- Crashes when the underlying bus disappears during device recovery

These are real-world stability issues that affect system reliability.

## 3. **Focused Fix with Clear Scope**
The changes are focused on making the EEH driver "PCI rescan and remove
safe" by properly coordinating locking around critical sections. The key
changes include:

- Moving `pci_lock_rescan_remove()` calls to protect larger critical
  sections in `eeh_handle_normal_event()` and
  `eeh_handle_special_event()`
- Removing scattered lock/unlock pairs from individual functions like
  `eeh_pe_report_edev()` and `eeh_reset_device()`
- Adding proper NULL checks (e.g., checking if `edev->pdev` exists
  before dereferencing in `eeh_bridge_check_link()`)
- Adding `*result = PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT` when no device is found

## 4. **Minimal Risk of Regression**
The changes are:
- Confined to the PowerPC EEH subsystem
- Primarily involve moving existing locking to broader scopes
- Add defensive NULL checks
- Don't introduce new features or change architecture

## 5. **Follows Stable Kernel Rules**
This fix meets the stable kernel criteria:
- Fixes a real bug (kernel oopses)
- Has been tested (signed off by multiple maintainers)
- Is self-contained to a specific subsystem
- Doesn't add new features
- Has clear bug symptoms that users experience

## 6. **Critical for PowerPC Server Systems**
EEH is crucial for PowerPC server systems' reliability, especially in
environments with PCIe hotplug operations. The race conditions can lead
to unexpected downtime in production systems.

The refactoring to consolidate the locking at higher levels (in the main
event handlers) rather than scattered throughout the code makes the
locking strategy clearer and reduces the chance of deadlocks or missed
locking, which is a good defensive programming practice for stable
kernels.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-6.12] apparmor: fix x_table_lookup when stacking is not the first entry

[Sasha Levin]

From: John Johansen <john.johansen@canonical.com>

[ Upstream commit a9eb185be84e998aa9a99c7760534ccc06216705 ]

x_table_lookup currently does stacking during label_parse() if the
target specifies a stack but its only caller ensures that it will
never be used with stacking.

Refactor to slightly simplify the code in x_to_label(), this
also fixes a long standing problem where x_to_labels check on stacking
is only on the first element to the table option list, instead of
the element that is found and used.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:

## Bug Fix Analysis

### 1. **Critical Bug Fix**
This fixes a **long-standing bug** in AppArmor's domain transition
handling where stacking directives would fail when they weren't the
first entry in the transition table. The commit message explicitly
states this fixes a "long standing problem" where the stacking check was
only performed on the first element rather than the element actually
found and used.

### 2. **Security Impact**
- **Policy Bypass Risk**: The bug could cause incorrect security
  profiles to be applied during domain transitions, potentially allowing
  unauthorized access
- **Inconsistent Enforcement**: Applications might not receive the
  correct stacked security context, leading to security policy
  violations
- **Profile Selection Errors**: Wrong profiles could be selected when
  stacking is involved, compromising the intended security boundaries

### 3. **Small and Contained Fix**
The changes are:
- Limited to two functions in a single file
  (`security/apparmor/domain.c`)
- Focused on fixing the logic flow without introducing new features
- Clear refactoring that separates concerns properly

### 4. **Low Regression Risk**
- The fix simplifies the code by properly separating lookup from
  stacking logic
- Changes from `aa_label_parse()` to `aa_label_merge()` for stacking is
  the correct semantic operation
- Proper resource management with `aa_put_label(stack)` prevents memory
  leaks
- The refactored loop in `x_table_lookup()` is cleaner and easier to
  understand

### 5. **Real-World Impact**
This bug would manifest in production systems where:
- AppArmor profiles use stacking features
- The stacking directive appears after other entries in the transition
  table
- Domain transitions are critical for security isolation

### 6. **Clear Problem and Solution**
The commit clearly identifies:
- **Problem**: Stacking check only on first element, not the found
  element
- **Solution**: Proper separation of lookup and stacking logic, checking
  the actual found entry

### 7. **Maintainer Authorship**
The commit is authored by John Johansen, the AppArmor maintainer,
indicating authoritative understanding of the subsystem and the fix's
importance.

This is exactly the type of commit that stable trees should include: a
clear bug fix for a security-relevant subsystem that could cause policy
enforcement failures in production systems, with minimal code changes
and low regression risk.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-6.1] dm-table: fix checking for rq stackable devices

[Sasha Levin]

From: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 8ca719b81987be690f197e82fdb030580c0a07f3 ]

Due to the semantics of iterate_devices(), the current code allows a
request-based dm table as long as it includes one request-stackable
device. It is supposed to only allow tables where there are no
non-request-stackable devices.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

Based on my analysis of the commit and the code context, here's my
assessment:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit fixes a clear logic bug in the device mapper table
validation code that could lead to incorrect device stacking
configurations. Here's the detailed analysis:

**1. The Bug:**
The original code had inverted logic when checking if devices are
request-stackable:
- The function `device_is_rq_stackable()` returned `true` (non-zero) for
  stackable devices
- But `iterate_devices()` stops iteration on non-zero returns and
  returns that non-zero value
- The check `!ti->type->iterate_devices(ti, device_is_rq_stackable,
  NULL)` would pass if ANY device returned true (stackable), not if ALL
  devices were stackable

**2. The Fix:**
- Renamed function to `device_is_not_rq_stackable()` to clarify its
  purpose
- Inverted the return values: returns `true` for non-stackable devices
- Changed the logic check to `ti->type->iterate_devices(ti,
  device_is_not_rq_stackable, NULL)` without negation
- Now correctly fails if ANY device is not stackable

**3. Why This Should Be Backported:**

a) **Fixes a real bug**: The current code allows invalid device stacking
configurations where request-based DM tables could include non-request-
stackable devices, potentially leading to:
   - Data corruption
   - System crashes
   - I/O failures

b) **Small and contained fix**: The change is minimal (4 lines changed)
and only affects the validation logic without changing any core
functionality

c) **Clear semantics**: The fix makes the code's intent clearer by
renaming the function to match what it actually checks

d) **No architectural changes**: This is purely a bug fix that corrects
validation logic

e) **Critical subsystem**: Device mapper is a critical component used in
production environments for LVM, encryption, and other storage features

f) **Follows stable rules**: This is exactly the type of fix stable
kernels want - important bug fixes with minimal risk

The commit message clearly explains the bug: "the current code allows a
request-based dm table as long as it includes one request-stackable
device. It is supposed to only allow tables where there are no non-
request-stackable devices." This could lead to serious issues in
production systems using device mapper.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.10] PCI: pnv_php: Clean up allocated IRQs on unplug

[Sasha Levin]

From: Timothy Pearson <tpearson@raptorengineering.com>

[ Upstream commit 4668619092554e1b95c9a5ac2941ca47ba6d548a ]

When the root of a nested PCIe bridge configuration is unplugged, the
pnv_php driver leaked the allocated IRQ resources for the child bridges'
hotplug event notifications, resulting in a panic.

Fix this by walking all child buses and deallocating all its IRQ resources
before calling pci_hp_remove_devices().

Also modify the lifetime of the workqueue at struct pnv_php_slot::wq so
that it is only destroyed in pnv_php_free_slot(), instead of
pnv_php_disable_irq(). This is required since pnv_php_disable_irq() will
now be called by workers triggered by hot unplug interrupts, so the
workqueue needs to stay allocated.

The abridged kernel panic that occurs without this patch is as follows:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 687 at kernel/irq/msi.c:292 msi_device_data_release+0x6c/0x9c

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

Based on my analysis of the commit, here is my assessment:

**Backport Status: YES**

This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees for the
following reasons:

1. **Fixes a Real Bug with Kernel Panic**: The commit explicitly fixes a
   kernel panic (WARNING and crash) that occurs when unplugging nested
   PCIe bridge configurations. The panic trace shows it happens in
   `msi_device_data_release()` during hotplug operations, which is a
   serious stability issue.

2. **Clear Resource Leak Fix**: The commit addresses a specific IRQ
   resource leak where child bridge IRQ resources were not being
   properly cleaned up during hot unplug operations. This is a real bug
   that affects system stability and resource management.

3. **Small and Contained Fix**: The changes are well-contained within
   the PowerNV PHP (PCI Hotplug) driver. The modifications include:
   - Adding a new `disable_msi` parameter to `pnv_php_disable_irq()`
   - Moving workqueue destruction to `pnv_php_free_slot()`
   - Adding functions to recursively disable IRQs for child slots
   - Re-enabling IRQ on slot enable for surprise hotplug support

4. **Meets Stable Criteria**:
   - Fixes a real bug (kernel panic/crash)
   - Is obviously correct - properly cleans up resources
   - Has clear testing evidence (fixes the described panic)
   - Size is reasonable (under 100 lines of actual changes)
   - Doesn't introduce new features or architectural changes

5. **Critical for PowerNV Platform Users**: This affects IBM PowerNV
   platforms using PCIe hotplug functionality, where nested bridge
   configurations can cause system crashes without this fix.

6. **Well-Documented Problem**: The commit message provides a clear
   description of the issue, including the kernel panic trace, making it
   easy to verify the problem and solution.

The fix follows proper cleanup patterns by ensuring IRQ resources are
freed before removing devices, and properly manages the lifetime of the
workqueue to avoid use-after-free scenarios. This is exactly the type of
bug fix that stable kernels should include to maintain system stability.

Re: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.10] PCI: pnv_php: Clean up allocated IRQs on unplug

[Timothy Pearson]

While the autoselector has the right idea, in that this is critical functionality that currently induces panics on older stable kernels, this entire patch series should be backported, not just these two isolated patches.

The correct series for backport would be:

 PCI: pnv_php: Fix surprise plug detection and recovery
 powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device hotplug safe
 powerpc/eeh: Export eeh_unfreeze_pe()
 PCI: pnv_php: Work around switches with broken presence detection
 PCI: pnv_php: Clean up allocated IRQs on unplug

Backport is especially critical for Debian, so that we don't ship a broken kernel with the soon to be released Trixie version.

Thanks!
