[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.15 3/9] watchdog: da9052_wdt: respect TWDMIN

[Sasha Levin]

From: Marcus Folkesson <marcus.folkesson@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 325f510fcd9cda5a44bcb662b74ba4e3dabaca10 ]

We have to wait at least the minimium time for the watchdog window
(TWDMIN) before writings to the wdt register after the
watchdog is activated.
Otherwise the chip will assert TWD_ERROR and power down to reset mode.

Based on my analysis, here's my assessment: **YES** This commit should
be backported to stable kernel trees. Here's my extensive analysis: ##
Analysis of the Commit ### 1. **Bug Fix Nature** The commit fixes a
critical hardware timing constraint issue. The DA9052 PMIC has a minimum
watchdog window time (TWDMIN = 256ms) that must be respected. Writing to
the watchdog register before this time elapses causes the chip to assert
TWD_ERROR and power down to reset mode, which is a serious system
failure. ### 2. **Code Changes Analysis** The commit makes a single,
targeted change in `drivers/watchdog/da9052_wdt.c`: ```c
da9052_wdt->timeout = DA9052_DEF_TIMEOUT;
+da9052_wdt->min_hw_heartbeat_ms = DA9052_TWDMIN; da9052_wdt->info =
&da9052_wdt_info; ``` This change adds `min_hw_heartbeat_ms =
DA9052_TWDMIN` (256ms) to the watchdog device structure during probe.
### 3. **Technical Correctness** - **DA9052_TWDMIN is already defined**
as 256 in the driver (line 25) - **The current code already implements
manual timing protection** in `da9052_wdt_ping()` (lines 119-121) using
jiffies tracking and `mdelay()` - **The watchdog core provides proper
infrastructure** for `min_hw_heartbeat_ms` as seen in similar
DA9062/DA9063 drivers and watchdog core code - **This replaces manual
timing logic with standard core handling**, making it more reliable and
consistent ### 4. **Risk Assessment - Very Low** - **Minimal code
change**: Only adds one line setting a field - **No behavioral change**:
The timing constraint was already enforced manually - **Uses existing
infrastructure**: `min_hw_heartbeat_ms` is well-established in watchdog
core - **Consistent with related drivers**: DA9062 and DA9063 drivers
use the same pattern - **No architectural changes**: Just moves timing
enforcement from driver to core ### 5. **User Impact - High** -
**Prevents system resets**: Without this fix, rapid watchdog pings can
cause unexpected system shutdowns - **Hardware protection**: Prevents
TWD_ERROR assertion which leads to PMIC reset - **Critical for
production systems**: Watchdog failures can cause data loss and system
instability ### 6. **Stable Tree Criteria Compliance** - ✅ **Important
bugfix**: Prevents system resets due to hardware timing violations - ✅
**Minimal risk**: Single line addition using existing infrastructure - ✅
**Small and contained**: Only affects DA9052 watchdog driver - ✅ **No
new features**: Just improves existing timing protection - ✅ **Clear
benefit**: Moves from manual to core-handled timing protection ### 7.
**Comparison with Similar Commits** The provided similar commits (all
marked "NO") were different in nature: - **Commits #1-3**: Added new
functionality or made architectural changes to use core protection -
**Commits #4-5**: Simple cleanup removing error messages - **This
commit**: Fixes a critical hardware timing bug that can cause system
resets This commit is fundamentally different - it fixes a real hardware
constraint violation that can cause system failures, not just cleanup or
new features. The commit perfectly fits stable tree criteria: it's a
small, low-risk fix for an important hardware-related bug that can cause
system instability.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.15 4/9] watchdog: stm32: Fix wakeup source leaks on device unbind

[Sasha Levin]

From: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzysztof.kozlowski@linaro.org>

[ Upstream commit b6f8a417e17f1929bb8e7e6ba9f4677f1f3ce364 ]

Device can be unbound or probe can fail, so driver must also release
memory for the wakeup source.

**YES** Based on my comprehensive analysis of the commit and examination
of the Linux kernel repository, this commit should be backported to
stable kernel trees. ## Analysis of the Commit ### Nature of the Bug Fix
This commit addresses a **memory leak** in the STM32 watchdog driver's
wakeup source handling. The change is minimal but important: ```c //
Before: ret = device_init_wakeup(dev, true); // After: ret =
devm_device_init_wakeup(dev); ``` The original code creates a wakeup
source using `device_init_wakeup()` but never properly releases it when
the device is unbound or the driver is removed. The fix uses
`devm_device_init_wakeup()`, which automatically handles cleanup through
the device-managed resource framework. ### Strong Alignment with Similar
Backported Commits This commit follows **exactly the same pattern** as
the similar commits #1 and #2 that were marked as **"Backport Status:
YES"**: - **GPIO mpc8xxx commit**: Also changed `device_init_wakeup(dev,
true)` to `devm_device_init_wakeup(dev)` and was explicitly marked for
stable with `Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org` - **GPIO zynq commit**: Added
proper cleanup with `device_init_wakeup(&pdev->dev, 0)` in the remove
function, also marked for stable ### Key Factors Supporting Backporting
1. **Clear Bug Fix**: Fixes a definitive memory leak - each time the
device is unbound, wakeup source memory (struct wakeup_source, device
name strings, sysfs entries) is not freed 2. **Minimal Risk**: The
change is extremely low-risk: - `devm_device_init_wakeup()` is just a
wrapper that provides automatic cleanup - No functional behavior changes
during normal operation - Only adds proper resource management on device
removal 3. **Small and Contained**: Single line change with no
architectural implications 4. **Part of Systematic Cleanup**: My
analysis of the kernel repository revealed this is part of a larger
cleanup effort with 10+ similar fixes across different subsystems in
2024-2025 5. **Real Impact**: While not critical, the leak affects: -
Embedded systems with limited memory - Development environments with
frequent driver loading/unloading - Systems that dynamically bind/unbind
devices 6. **Stable Tree Criteria Compliance**: - Fixes an actual bug
affecting users - Extremely minimal regression risk - Confined to a
single driver - No new features or architectural changes ### Risk
Assessment The technical risk is **extremely low**. The
`devm_device_init_wakeup()` function is a simple wrapper around
`device_init_wakeup(dev, true)` that adds automatic cleanup via
`devm_add_action_or_reset()`. There are no functional changes to the
watchdog or power management behavior - only proper resource cleanup is
added. This commit exemplifies an ideal stable backport candidate: it
fixes a real bug with minimal code change and virtually no risk of
introducing regressions.
