The other changes are all for devicetree files: - Multiple Marvell Armada SoCs need changes to fix PCIe, audio and SATA - A socfpga board fails to probe the ethernet phy - The two temperature sensors on i.MX8MP are swapped - Allwinner devicetree files cause build-time warnings - Two Rockchip based boards need corrections for headphone detection and SPI flash" * tag 'soc-fixes-6.17-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc: MAINTAINERS: remove Alyssa Rosenzweig firmware: tegra: Do not warn on missing memory-region property arm64: dts: marvell: cn9132-clearfog: fix multi-lane pci x2 and x4 ports arm64: dts: marvell: cn9132-clearfog: disable eMMC high-speed modes arm64: dts: marvell: cn913x-solidrun: fix sata ports status ARM: dts: kirkwood: Fix sound DAI cells for OpenRD clients arm64: dts: imx8mp: Correct thermal sensor index ARM: imx: Kconfig: Adjust select after renamed config option firmware: imx: Add stub functions for SCMI CPU API firmware: imx: Add stub functions for SCMI LMM API firmware: imx: Add stub functions for SCMI MISC API riscv: dts: allwinner: rename devterm i2c-gpio node to comply with binding arm64: dts: rockchip: Fix the headphone detection on the orangepi 5 arm64: dts: rockchip: Add vcc supply for SPI Flash on NanoPC-T6 ARM: dts: socfpga: sodia: Fix mdio bus probe and PHY address reset: eyeq: fix OF node leak ARM64: dts: mcbin: fix SATA ports on Macchiatobin ARM: dts: armada-370-db: Fix stereo audio input routing on Armada 370 ARM: dts: allwinner: Minor whitespace cleanup

firmware: tegra: Do not warn on missing memory-region property

2025-09-15T16:28:09Z

The IPC shared memory can reside in system memory or SRAM. In the latter case the memory-region property is expected not to be present, so do not warn about it.

efi: stmm: Drop unneeded null pointer check

2025-08-26T12:49:42Z

The API documenation of setup_mm_hdr does not mention that dptr can be NULL, this is a local function, and no caller passes NULL. So drop the unneeded check. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka Reviewed-by: Ilias Apalodimas Acked-by: Sumit Garg Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel

efi: stmm: Drop unused EFI error from setup_mm_hdr arguments

2025-08-26T12:49:42Z

No caller ever evaluates what we return in 'ret'. They only use the return code of the function. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka Reviewed-by: Ilias Apalodimas Acked-by: Sumit Garg Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel

efi: stmm: Do not return EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES on internal errors

2025-08-26T12:49:42Z

When we are low on memory or when the internal API is violated, we cannot return EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES. According to the UEFI standard, that error code is either related to persistent storage used for the variable or even not foreseen as possible error (GetVariable e.g.). Use the not fully accurate but compliant error code EFI_DEVICE_ERROR in those cases. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka Reviewed-by: Ilias Apalodimas Acked-by: Sumit Garg Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel

efi: stmm: Fix incorrect buffer allocation method

2025-08-26T12:47:53Z

The communication buffer allocated by setup_mm_hdr() is later on passed to tee_shm_register_kernel_buf(). The latter expects those buffers to be contiguous pages, but setup_mm_hdr() just uses kmalloc(). That can cause various corruptions or BUGs, specifically since commit 9aec2fb0fd5e ("slab: allocate frozen pages"), though it was broken before as well. Fix this by using alloc_pages_exact() instead of kmalloc().

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas: "A quick summary: perf support for Branch Record Buffer Extensions (BRBE), typical PMU hardware updates, small additions to MTE for store-only tag checking and exposing non-address bits to signal handlers, HAVE_LIVEPATCH enabled on arm64, VMAP_STACK forced on. There is also a TLBI optimisation on hardware that does not require break-before-make when changing the user PTEs between contiguous and non-contiguous. More details: Perf and PMU updates: - Add support for new (v3) Hisilicon SLLC and DDRC PMUs - Add support for Arm-NI PMU integrations that share interrupts between clock domains within a given instance - Allow SPE to be configured with a lower sample period than the minimum recommendation advertised by PMSIDR_EL1.Interval - Add suppport for Arm's "Branch Record Buffer Extension" (BRBE) - Adjust the perf watchdog period according to cpu frequency changes - Minor driver fixes and cleanups Hardware features: - Support for MTE store-only checking (FEAT_MTE_STORE_ONLY) - Support for reporting the non-address bits during a synchronous MTE tag check fault (FEAT_MTE_TAGGED_FAR) - Optimise the TLBI when folding/unfolding contiguous PTEs on hardware with FEAT_BBM (break-before-make) level 2 and no TLB conflict aborts Software features: - Enable HAVE_LIVEPATCH after implementing arch_stack_walk_reliable() and using the text-poke API for late module relocations - Force VMAP_STACK always on and change arm64_efi_rt_init() to use arch_alloc_vmap_stack() in order to avoid KASAN false positives ACPI: - Improve SPCR handling and messaging on systems lacking an SPCR table Debug: - Simplify the debug exception entry path - Drop redundant DBG_MDSCR_* macros Kselftests: - Cleanups and improvements for SME, SVE and FPSIMD tests Miscellaneous: - Optimise loop to reduce redundant operations in contpte_ptep_get() - Remove ISB when resetting POR_EL0 during signal handling - Mark the kernel as tainted on SEA and SError panic - Remove redundant gcs_free() call" * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (93 commits) arm64/gcs: task_gcs_el0_enable() should use passed task arm64: Kconfig: Keep selects somewhat alphabetically ordered arm64: signal: Remove ISB when resetting POR_EL0 kselftest/arm64: Handle attempts to disable SM on SME only systems kselftest/arm64: Fix SVE write data generation for SME only systems kselftest/arm64: Test SME on SME only systems in fp-ptrace kselftest/arm64: Test FPSIMD format data writes via NT_ARM_SVE in fp-ptrace kselftest/arm64: Allow sve-ptrace to run on SME only systems arm64/mm: Drop redundant addr increment in set_huge_pte_at() kselftest/arm4: Provide local defines for AT_HWCAP3 arm64: Mark kernel as tainted on SAE and SError panic arm64/gcs: Don't call gcs_free() when releasing task_struct drivers/perf: hisi: Support PMUs with no interrupt drivers/perf: hisi: Relax the event number check of v2 PMUs drivers/perf: hisi: Add support for HiSilicon SLLC v3 PMU driver drivers/perf: hisi: Use ACPI driver_data to retrieve SLLC PMU information drivers/perf: hisi: Add support for HiSilicon DDRC v3 PMU driver drivers/perf: hisi: Simplify the probe process for each DDRC version perf/arm-ni: Support sharing IRQs within an NI instance perf/arm-ni: Consolidate CPU affinity handling ...
