We will be needing these routines to find Display Port adapters as well
so modify them to take port type as the second parameter.

The only way to expand Thunderbolt topology is through the NULL adapter
ports (typically ports 1, 2, 3 and 4). There is no point handling
Thunderbolt hotplug events on any other port.
Add a helper function (tb_port_is_null()) that can be used to determine
if the port is NULL port, and use it in software connection manager code
when hotplug event is handled.

Currently the software connection manager (tb.c) has only supported
creating a single PCIe tunnel, no PCIe device daisy chaining has been
supported so far. This updates the software connection manager so that
it now can create PCIe tunnels for full chain of six devices.
Because PCIe allows DMA and opens possibility for DMA attacks we change
security level to "user" meaning that PCIe tunneling requires that the
userspace authorizes the devices first. This makes it possible to block
PCIe tunneling completely while still allowing other types of tunnels to
be automatically created.

In Apple Macs the boot firmware (EFI) connects all devices automatically
when the system is started, before it hands over to the OS. Instead of
ignoring we discover all those PCIe tunnels and record them using our
internal structures, just like we do when a device is connected after
the OS is already up.
By doing this we can properly tear down tunnels when devices are
disconnected. Also this allows us to resume the existing tunnels after
system suspend/resume cycle.

State of the connected devices and tunnel configuration is not known
during resume. For example some paths may not be complete anymore if the
user has unplugged the related devices. So instead of marking all paths
as inactive we go ahead and deactivate them explicitly before we restart
them.

Now that we can allocate hop IDs per port on a path, we can take
advantage of this and create tunnels covering longer paths than just
between two adjacent switches. PCIe actually does not need this as it
is typically a daisy chain between two adjacent switches but this way we
do not need to hard-code creation of the tunnel.
While there add name to struct tb_path to make debugging easier, and
update kernel-doc comments.

Currently the driver only assigns remote port for the primary port if in
case of dual link. This makes things such as walking from one port to
another more complex than necessary because the code needs to change
from secondary to primary port if the path that is established is
created using secondary links.
In order to always assign both remote pointers we need to prevent the
scanning code from following the secondary link. Failing to do that
might cause problems as the same switch may be enumerated twice (or
removed in case of unplug). Handle that properly by introducing a new
function tb_port_has_remote() that returns true only for the primary
port. We also update tb_is_upstream_port() to support both dual link
ports, make it take const port pointer and move it below
tb_upstream_port() to keep similar functions close.

Each port has a separate path configuration space that is used for
finding the next hop (switch) in the path. HopID is an index to this
configuration space. HopIDs 0 - 7 are reserved by the protocol.
In order to get next available HopID for each direction we provide two
pairs of helper functions that can be used to allocate and release
HopIDs for a given port.
While there remove obsolete TODO comment.

To be able to tunnel non-PCIe traffic, separate tunnel functionality
into generic and PCIe specific parts. Rename struct tb_pci_tunnel to
tb_tunnel, and make it hold an array of paths instead of just two.
Update all the tunneling functions to take this structure as parameter.
We also move tb_pci_port_active() to switch.c (and rename it) where we
will be keeping all port and switch related functions.

We need to wait until all buffers have been drained before the path can

switch_lock was introduced because it allowed serialization of device
authorization requests from userspace without need to take the big
domain lock (tb->lock). This was fine because device authorization with
ICM is just one command that is sent to the firmware. Now that we start
to handle all tunneling in the driver switch_lock is not enough because
we need to walk over the topology to establish paths.
For this reason drop switch_lock from the driver completely in favour of
big domain lock.
There is one complication, though. If userspace is waiting for the lock
in tb_switch_set_authorized(), it keeps the device_del() from removing
the sysfs attribute because it waits for active users to release the
attribute first which leads into following splat:
INFO: task kworker/u8:3:73 blocked for more than 61 seconds.

The XDomain protocol messages may start as soon as Thunderbolt control
channel is started. This means that if the other host starts sending
ThunderboltIP packets early enough they will be passed to the network
driver which then gets confused because its resume hook is not called

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of
the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include". We don't
need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice.
Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid
this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be
recursively expanded.
On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build.
Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really
old) commit e8f5bdb02ce0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering").
It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch
the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid
directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because
someone else (out of tree?) was setting it. I presume later since if
the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would
have just removed the ":".

The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device
structure, we should release that reference.
The implementation of this semantic code search is:
In a function, for a local variable returned by calling
of_find_device_by_node(),
a, if it is released by a function such as
put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use,
it is considered that there is no reference leak;
b, if it is passed back to the caller via
dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the
reference will be released in other functions, and the current function
also considers that there is no reference leak;
c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the
reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the
corresponding error message.
By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks,
such as:
commit 11907e9d3533 ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in
fsl_asoc_card_probe")
commit a12085d13997 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak")
commit 11493f26856a ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak")
There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code.
Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also
have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to
further check the reference leak.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/
as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
the processes they refer to.
With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct
pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.
With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
quite handy.
There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
the future once they are needed.
This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
a pidfd.
Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:

Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams:
"New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other
"reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to
the core-mm as "System RAM".
Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile
memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance
differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use
typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory
allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration
model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System
RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign
it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a
generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special
purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be
used to restore the memory assignment.
One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps
data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable
NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents
at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced
requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution /
administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that
lack security capable NVDIMMs.
Summary:
- Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and
include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI.
- Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range
- Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax
address-range to the core-mm.
- Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the
newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis"
NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because
we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about
accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks
inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some
(not described) circumstances.
And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular
RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily
get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for
the user space tooling.
Quoting Dan from another email:
"The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for
and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling
for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime
notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from
background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the
kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile
case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2.
I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by
tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM
making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in
the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's
possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active
application coordination"
