Revert "x86/kexec: add a sanity check on previous kernel's ima kexec buffer"

2026-03-05T14:56:36Z

This reverts commit c5489d04337b47e93c0623e8145fcba3f5739efd. The commit introduces a call to ima_validate_range() in arch/x86/kernel/setup.c, but the function declaration is not available in the 6.12 stable tree, resulting in build failures due to implicit function declaration errors across multiple stable branches.

arm64: Fix sampling the "stable" virtual counter in preemptible section

2026-03-04T12:21:20Z

[ Upstream commit e5cb94ba5f96d691d8885175d4696d6ae6bc5ec9 ] Ben reports that when running with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT, using __arch_counter_get_cntvct_stable() results in well deserves warnings, as we access a per-CPU variable without preemption disabled. Fix the issue by disabling preemption on reading the counter. We can probably do a lot better by not disabling preemption on systems that do not require horrible workarounds to return a valid counter value, but this plugs the issue for the time being.

drm/i915/wakeref: clean up INTEL_WAKEREF_PUT_* flag macros

2026-03-04T12:21:20Z

[ Upstream commit 524696a19e34598c9173fdd5b32fb7e5d16a91d3 ] Commit 469c1c9eb6c9 ("kernel-doc: Issue warnings that were silently discarded") started emitting warnings for cases that were previously silently discarded. One such case is in intel_wakeref.h: Warning: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_wakeref.h:156 expecting prototype for __intel_wakeref_put(). Prototype was for INTEL_WAKEREF_PUT_ASYNC() instead Arguably kernel-doc should be able to handle this, as it's valid C, but having the flags defined between the function declarator and the body is just asking for trouble. Move the INTEL_WAKEREF_PUT_* macros away from there, making kernel-doc's life easier. While at it, reduce the unnecessary abstraction levels by removing the enum, and append _MASK to INTEL_WAKEREF_PUT_DELAY for clarity.

[ Upstream commit 6a4b50585d74fe45d3ade1e3e86ba8aae79761a5 ] The buffer used for "qp%d" was only 4 bytes, which truncates names like "qp10" to "qp1" and causes multiple queues to share the same directory. Enlarge the buffer and use sizeof() to avoid truncation.

tracing: Wake up poll waiters for hist files when removing an event

2026-03-04T12:21:20Z

[ Upstream commit 9678e53179aa7e907360f5b5b275769008a69b80 ] The event_hist_poll() function attempts to verify whether an event file is being removed, but this check may not occur or could be unnecessarily delayed. This happens because hist_poll_wakeup() is currently invoked only from event_hist_trigger() when a hist command is triggered. If the event file is being removed, no associated hist command will be triggered and a waiter will be woken up only after an unrelated hist command is triggered. Fix the issue by adding a call to hist_poll_wakeup() in remove_event_file_dir() after setting the EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED flag. This ensures that a task polling on a hist file is woken up and receives EPOLLERR.

tracing: Fix checking of freed trace_event_file for hist files

2026-03-04T12:21:20Z

[ Upstream commit f0a0da1f907e8488826d91c465f7967a56a95aca ] The event_hist_open() and event_hist_poll() functions currently retrieve a trace_event_file pointer from a file struct by invoking event_file_data(), which simply returns file->f_inode->i_private. The functions then check if the pointer is NULL to determine whether the event is still valid. This approach is flawed because i_private is assigned when an eventfs inode is allocated and remains set throughout its lifetime. Instead, the code should call event_file_file(), which checks for EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED. Using the incorrect access function may result in the code potentially opening a hist file for an event that is being removed or becoming stuck while polling on this file. Correct the access method to event_file_file() in both functions.

net: nfc: nci: Fix parameter validation for packet data

arm64: Force the use of CNTVCT_EL0 in __delay()

2026-03-04T12:21:20Z

[ Upstream commit 29cc0f3aa7c64d3b3cb9d94c0a0984ba6717bf72 ] Quentin forwards a report from Hyesoo Yu, describing an interesting problem with the use of WFxT in __delay() when a vcpu is loaded and that KVM is *not* in VHE mode (either nVHE or hVHE). In this case, CNTVOFF_EL2 is set to a non-zero value to reflect the state of the guest virtual counter. At the same time, __delay() is using get_cycles() to read the counter value, which is indirected to reading CNTPCT_EL0. The core of the issue is that WFxT is using the *virtual* counter, while the kernel is using the physical counter, and that the offset introduces a really bad discrepancy between the two. Fix this by forcing the use of CNTVCT_EL0, making __delay() consistent irrespective of the value of CNTVOFF_EL2.
