platform/x86: lg-laptop: Fix WMAB call in fan_mode_store()

2025-09-25T09:21:43Z

When WMAB is called to set the fan mode, the new mode is read from either bits 0-1 or bits 4-5 (depending on the value of some other EC register). Thus when WMAB is called with bits 4-5 zeroed and called again with bits 0-1 zeroed, the second call undoes the effect of the first call. This causes writes to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/fan_mode to have no effect (and causes reads to always report a status of zero). Fix this by calling WMAB once, with the mode set in bits 0,1 and 4,5. When the fan mode is returned from WMAB it always has this form, so there is no need to preserve the other bits. As a bonus, the driver now supports the "Performance" fan mode seen in the LG-provided Windows control app, which provides less aggressive CPU throttling but louder fan noise and shorter battery life. Also, correct the documentation to reflect that 0 corresponds to the default mode (what the Windows app calls "Optimal") and 1 corresponds to the silent mode.

doc/netlink: Fix typos in operation attributes

2025-09-16T23:30:06Z

I'm trying to generate Rust bindings for netlink using the yaml spec. It looks like there's a typo in conntrack spec: attribute set conntrack-attrs defines attributes "counters-{orig,reply}" (plural), while get operation references "counter-{orig,reply}" (singular). The latter should be fixed, as it denotes multiple counters (packet and byte). The corresonding C define is CTA_COUNTERS_ORIG. Also, dump request references "nfgen-family" attribute, which neither exists in conntrack-attrs attrset nor ctattr_type enum. There's member of nfgenmsg struct with the same name, which is where family value is actually taken from. > static int ctnetlink_dump_exp_ct(struct net *net, struct sock *ctnl, > struct sk_buff *skb, > const struct nlmsghdr *nlh, > const struct nlattr * const cda[], > struct netlink_ext_ack *extack) > { > int err; > struct nfgenmsg *nfmsg = nlmsg_data(nlh); > u_int8_t u3 = nfmsg->nfgen_family; ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Signed-off-by: Remy D.

mptcp: pm: nl: announce deny-join-id0 flag

2025-09-16T01:12:05Z

During the connection establishment, a peer can tell the other one that it cannot establish new subflows to the initial IP address and port by setting the 'C' flag [1]. Doing so makes sense when the sender is behind a strict NAT, operating behind a legacy Layer 4 load balancer, or using anycast IP address for example. When this 'C' flag is set, the path-managers must then not try to establish new subflows to the other peer's initial IP address and port. The in-kernel PM has access to this info, but the userspace PM didn't. The RFC8684 [1] is strict about that: (...) therefore the receiver MUST NOT try to open any additional subflows toward this address and port. So it is important to tell the userspace about that as it is responsible for the respect of this flag. When a new connection is created and established, the Netlink events now contain the existing but not currently used 'flags' attribute. When MPTCP_PM_EV_FLAG_DENY_JOIN_ID0 is set, it means no other subflows to the initial IP address and port -- info that are also part of the event -- can be established.
