ALSA: hda/hdmi: Fix breakage at probing nvhdmi-mcp driver
After restructuring and splitting the HDMI codec driver code, each
HDMI codec driver contains the own build_controls and build_pcms ops.
A copy-n-paste error put the wrong entries for nvhdmi-mcp driver; both
build_controls and build_pcms are swapped. Unfortunately both
callbacks have the very same form, and the compiler didn't complain
it, either. This resulted in a NULL dereference because the PCM
instance hasn't been initialized at calling the build_controls
callback.
Fix it by passing the proper entries. |

net: ethernet: ti: netcp: Standardize knav_dma_open_channel to return NULL on error
Make knav_dma_open_channel consistently return NULL on error instead
of ERR_PTR. Currently the header include/linux/soc/ti/knav_dma.h
returns NULL when the driver is disabled, but the driver
implementation does not even return NULL or ERR_PTR on failure,
causing inconsistency in the users. This results in a crash in
netcp_free_navigator_resources as followed (trimmed):

Standardize the error handling by making the function return NULL on
all error conditions. The API is used in just the netcp_core.c so the
impact is limited.
Note, this change, in effect reverts commit 5b6cb43b4d62 ("net:
ethernet: ti: netcp_core: return error while dma channel open issue"),
but provides a less error prone implementation. |

LoongArch: BPF: Disable trampoline for kernel module function trace
The current LoongArch BPF trampoline implementation is incompatible
with tracing functions in kernel modules. This causes several severe
and user-visible problems:
* The `bpf_selftests/module_attach` test fails consistently.
* Kernel lockup when a BPF program is attached to a module function [1].
* Critical kernel modules like WireGuard experience traffic disruption
when their functions are traced with fentry [2].
Given the severity and the potential for other unknown side-effects, it
is safest to disable the feature entirely for now. This patch prevents
the BPF subsystem from allowing trampoline attachments to kernel module
functions on LoongArch.
This is a temporary mitigation until the core issues in the trampoline
code for kernel module handling can be identified and fixed.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: pegasus-notetaker - fix potential out-of-bounds access
In the pegasus_notetaker driver, the pegasus_probe() function allocates
the URB transfer buffer using the wMaxPacketSize value from
the endpoint descriptor. An attacker can use a malicious USB descriptor
to force the allocation of a very small buffer.
Subsequently, if the device sends an interrupt packet with a specific
pattern (e.g., where the first byte is 0x80 or 0x42),
the pegasus_parse_packet() function parses the packet without checking
the allocated buffer size. This leads to an out-of-bounds memory access. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: Fix proto fallback detection with BPF
The sockmap feature allows bpf syscall from userspace, or based
on bpf sockops, replacing the sk_prot of sockets during protocol stack
processing with sockmap's custom read/write interfaces.
'''
tcp_rcv_state_process()
syn_recv_sock()/subflow_syn_recv_sock()
tcp_init_transfer(BPF_SOCK_OPS_PASSIVE_ESTABLISHED_CB)
bpf_skops_established <== sockops
bpf_sock_map_update(sk) <== call bpf helper
tcp_bpf_update_proto() <== update sk_prot
'''
When the server has MPTCP enabled but the client sends a TCP SYN
without MPTCP, subflow_syn_recv_sock() performs a fallback on the
subflow, replacing the subflow sk's sk_prot with the native sk_prot.
'''
subflow_syn_recv_sock()
subflow_ulp_fallback()
subflow_drop_ctx()
mptcp_subflow_ops_undo_override()
'''
Then, this subflow can be normally used by sockmap, which replaces the
native sk_prot with sockmap's custom sk_prot. The issue occurs when the
user executes accept::mptcp_stream_accept::mptcp_fallback_tcp_ops().
Here, it uses sk->sk_prot to compare with the native sk_prot, but this
is incorrect when sockmap is used, as we may incorrectly set
sk->sk_socket->ops.
This fix uses the more generic sk_family for the comparison instead.
Additionally, this also prevents a WARNING from occurring:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/plane: Fix create_in_format_blob() return value
create_in_format_blob() is either supposed to return a valid
pointer or an error, but never NULL. The caller will dereference
the blob when it is not an error, and thus will oops if NULL
returned. Return proper error values in the failure cases. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: fix nullptr err of vm_handle_moved
If a amdgpu_bo_va is fpriv->prt_va, the bo of this one is always NULL.
So, such kind of amdgpu_bo_va should be updated separately before
amdgpu_vm_handle_moved. |

gpu: host1x: Fix race in syncpt alloc/free
Fix race condition between host1x_syncpt_alloc()
and host1x_syncpt_put() by using kref_put_mutex()
instead of kref_put() + manual mutex locking.
This ensures no thread can acquire the
syncpt_mutex after the refcount drops to zero
but before syncpt_release acquires it.
This prevents races where syncpoints could
be allocated while still being cleaned up
from a previous release.
Remove explicit mutex locking in syncpt_release
as kref_put_mutex() handles this atomically. |

isdn: mISDN: hfcsusb: fix memory leak in hfcsusb_probe()
In hfcsusb_probe(), the memory allocated for ctrl_urb gets leaked when

net/mlx5: Fix IPsec cleanup over MPV device

notifier, among those events are IPsec MPV events from IB to core.
So before disabling those blocking events, make sure to also unregister
the devcom device and mark all this device operations as complete,
in order to prevent the other device from using invalid netdev
during future devcom events which could cause the trace below.

net: core: prevent NULL deref in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower()
The ethtool tsconfig Netlink path can trigger a null pointer
dereference. A call chain such as:
tsconfig_prepare_data() ->
dev_get_hwtstamp_phylib() ->
vlan_hwtstamp_get() ->
generic_hwtstamp_get_lower() ->
generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower()
results in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() being called with
kernel_cfg->ifr as NULL.
The generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() function does not expect
a NULL ifr and dereferences it, leading to a system crash.
Fix this by adding a NULL check for kernel_cfg->ifr in
generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower(). If ifr is NULL, return -EINVAL. |

After calling regulator_resolve_supply(), the 'rdev->supply' is set
by set_supply(), after this set, in the error path, the resources
need be released, so call regulator_put() to avoid the leaks. |

dmaengine: qcom-adm: fix wrong calling convention for prep_slave_sg
The calling convention for pre_slave_sg is to return NULL on error and
provide an error log to the system. Qcom-adm instead provide error
pointer when an error occur. This indirectly cause kernel panic for
example for the nandc driver that checks only if the pointer returned by
device_prep_slave_sg is not NULL. Returning an error pointer makes nandc
think the device_prep_slave_sg function correctly completed and makes
the kernel panics later in the code.
While nandc is the one that makes the kernel crash, it was pointed out
that the real problem is qcom-adm not following calling convention for
that function.
To fix this, drop returning error pointer and return NULL with an error
log. |

x86/apic: Don't disable x2APIC if locked
The APIC supports two modes, legacy APIC (or xAPIC), and Extended APIC
(or x2APIC). X2APIC mode is mostly compatible with legacy APIC, but
it disables the memory-mapped APIC interface in favor of one that uses
MSRs. The APIC mode is controlled by the EXT bit in the APIC MSR.
The MMIO/xAPIC interface has some problems, most notably the APIC LEAK
[1]. This bug allows an attacker to use the APIC MMIO interface to
extract data from the SGX enclave.
Introduce support for a new feature that will allow the BIOS to lock
the APIC in x2APIC mode. If the APIC is locked in x2APIC mode and the
kernel tries to disable the APIC or revert to legacy APIC mode a GP
fault will occur.
Introduce support for a new MSR (IA32_XAPIC_DISABLE_STATUS) and handle
the new locked mode when the LEGACY_XAPIC_DISABLED bit is set by
preventing the kernel from trying to disable the x2APIC.
On platforms with the IA32_XAPIC_DISABLE_STATUS MSR, if SGX or TDX are
enabled the LEGACY_XAPIC_DISABLED will be set by the BIOS. If
legacy APIC is required, then it SGX and TDX need to be disabled in the
BIOS.

drm/amdgpu: fix pci device refcount leak
As comment of pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() says, it returns
a pci device with refcount increment, when finish using it,
the caller must decrement the reference count by calling
pci_dev_put().
So before returning from amdgpu_device_resume|suspend_display_audio(),
pci_dev_put() is called to avoid refcount leak. |
