Investigation revealed that the inode has both flags set:
DEBUG: inode 15 - flag=1, i_inline_off=164, has_inline=1, extents_flag=1
This is an invalid combination since an inode should have either:
- INLINE_DATA: data stored directly in the inode
- EXTENTS: data stored in extent-mapped blocks
Having both flags causes ext4_has_inline_data() to return true, skipping
extent tree validation in __ext4_iget(). The unvalidated out-of-order
extents then trigger a BUG_ON in ext4_es_cache_extent() due to integer
underflow when calculating hole sizes.
Fix this by detecting this invalid flag combination early in ext4_iget()
and rejecting the corrupted inode.

ext4: wait for ongoing I/O to complete before freeing blocks
When freeing metadata blocks in nojournal mode, ext4_forget() calls
bforget() to clear the dirty flag on the buffer_head and remvoe
associated mappings. This is acceptable if the metadata has not yet
begun to be written back. However, if the write-back has already started
but is not yet completed, ext4_forget() will have no effect.
Subsequently, ext4_mb_clear_bb() will immediately return the block to
the mb allocator. This block can then be reallocated immediately,
potentially causing an data corruption issue.
Fix this by clearing the buffer's dirty flag and waiting for the ongoing
I/O to complete, ensuring that no further writes to stale data will
occur.

jbd2: ensure that all ongoing I/O complete before freeing blocks
When releasing file system metadata blocks in jbd2_journal_forget(), if
this buffer has not yet been checkpointed, it may have already been
written back, currently be in the process of being written back, or has
not yet written back. jbd2_journal_forget() calls
jbd2_journal_try_remove_checkpoint() to check the buffer's status and
add it to the current transaction if it has not been written back. This
buffer can only be reallocated after the transaction is committed.
jbd2_journal_try_remove_checkpoint() attempts to lock the buffer and
check its dirty status while holding the buffer lock. If the buffer has
already been written back, everything proceeds normally. However, there
are two issues. First, the function returns immediately if the buffer is
locked by the write-back process. It does not wait for the write-back to
complete. Consequently, until the current transaction is committed and
the block is reallocated, there is no guarantee that the I/O will
complete. This means that ongoing I/O could write stale metadata to the
newly allocated block, potentially corrupting data. Second, the function
unlocks the buffer as soon as it detects that the buffer is still dirty.
If a concurrent write-back occurs immediately after this unlocking and
before clear_buffer_dirty() is called in jbd2_journal_forget(), data
corruption can theoretically still occur.
Although these two issues are unlikely to occur in practice since the
undergoing metadata writeback I/O does not take this long to complete,
it's better to explicitly ensure that all ongoing I/O operations are
completed.

When orphan file feature is enabled, inode can be tracked as orphan

mostly minor, the worst that can happen is that we track an inode as

ext4: guard against EA inode refcount underflow in xattr update
syzkaller found a path where ext4_xattr_inode_update_ref() reads an EA

triggering errors like:
EXT4-fs error: EA inode <n> ref underflow: ref_count=-1 ref_change=-1
EXT4-fs warning: ea_inode dec ref err=-117
Make the invariant explicit: if the current refcount is non-positive,
treat this as on-disk corruption, emit ext4_error_inode(), and fail the
operation with -EFSCORRUPTED instead of updating the refcount. Delete the
WARN_ONCE() as negative refcounts are now impossible; keep error reporting

unchanged(in the ext4_update_disksize_before_punch function, the
condition offset + len < size is met). Then ext4_page_mkwrite sees
ext4_nonda_switch return 1 and takes the nodioread_nolock path, the

run into this. It should be noted that replacing ext4_punch_hole with

build configuration, which had only EXT3 support but not EXT4 support
enabled, the three config options EXT3_{FS,FS_POSIX_ACL,FS_SECURITY} were
kept, instead of immediately removing them. The three options just enable
the corresponding EXT4 counterparts when configs from older kernel versions

from those kernel build configurations would then continue to have EXT4

Given that the kernel build configuration has no backwards-compatibility

kselftest/arm64: Don't open code SVE_PT_SIZE() in fp-ptrace
In fp-trace when allocating a buffer to write SVE register data we open
code the addition of the header size to the VL depeendent register data
size, which lead to an underallocation bug when we cut'n'pasted the code
for FPSIMD format writes. Use the SVE_PT_SIZE() macro that the kernel
UAPI provides for this.

hardening: Require clang 20.1.0 for __counted_by
After an innocuous change in -next that modified a structure that
contains __counted_by, clang-19 start crashing when building certain

descriptive failure is:
clang: clang/lib/AST/RecordLayoutBuilder.cpp:3335: const ASTRecordLayout &clang::ASTContext::getASTRecordLayout(const RecordDecl *) const: Assertion `D && "Cannot get layout of forward declarations!"' failed.
According to a reverse bisect, a tangential change to the LLVM IR

resolves this problem. Bump the version of clang that enables
CONFIG_CC_HAS_COUNTED_BY to 20.1.0 to ensure that this issue cannot be

KVM: arm64: nv: Fix ATS12 handling of single-stage translation
Volodymyr reports that using a Xen DomU as a nested guest (where
HCR_EL2.E2H == 0), ATS12 results in a translation that stops at
the L2's S1, which isn't something you'd normally expects.
Comparing the code against the spec proves to be illuminating,
and suggests that the author of such code must have been tired,
cross-eyed, drunk, or maybe all of the above.
The gist of it is that, apart from HCR_EL2.VM or HCR_EL2.DC being
0, only the use of the EL2&0 translation regime limits the walk
to S1 only, and that we must finish the S2 walk in any other case.
Which solves the above issue, as E2H==0 indicates that ATS12 walks
the EL1&0 translation regime.
Volodymyr reports (again!) that under some circumstances (E2H==0,
walking S1 PTs), PAR_EL1 doesn't report the value of the latest
walk in the CPU register, but that instead the value is written to
the backing store.
Further investigation indicates that the root cause of this is
that a group of registers (PAR_EL1, TPIDR*_EL{0,1}, the *32_EL2 dregs)
should always be considered as "on CPU", as they are not remapped
between EL1 and EL2.
We fail to treat them accordingly, and end-up considering that
the register (PAR_EL1 in this example) should be written to memory
instead of in the register.
While it would be possible to quickly work around it, it is obvious
that the way we track these things at the moment is pretty horrible,
and could do with some improvement.
Revamp the whole thing by:
- defining a location for a register (memory, cpu), potentially
depending on the state of the vcpu
- define a transformation for this register (mapped register, potential
translation, special register needing some particular attention)
- convey this information in a structure that can be easily passed
around
As a result, the accessors themselves become much simpler, as the
state is explicit instead of being driven by hard-to-understand
conventions.
We get rid of the "pure EL2 register" notion, which wasn't very
useful, and add sanitisation of the values by applying the RESx
masks as required, something that was missing so far.
And of course, we add the missing registers to the list, with the
indication that they are always loaded.

Add a new command line option --no_ublk_fixed_fd that excludes the ublk

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 135 at drivers/block/ublk_drv.c:1933 ublk_ch_release+0x423/0x4b0 [ublk_drv]
This happens when the daemon is abruptly killed:
- some references may still be held, because registering IO buffer
doesn't grab ublk char device reference
OR
- io->task_registered_buffers won't be cleared because io buffer is
released from non-daemon context
For zero-copy and auto buffer register modes, I/O reference crosses
syscalls, so IO reference may not be dropped naturally when ublk server is
killed abruptly. However, when releasing io_uring context, it is guaranteed
that the reference is dropped finally, see io_sqe_buffers_unregister() from
io_ring_ctx_free().
Fix this by adding ublk_drain_io_references() that:
- Waits for active I/O references dropped in async way by scheduling
work function, for avoiding ublk dev and io_uring file's release
dependency
- Reinitializes io->ref and io->task_registered_buffers to clean state
This ensures the reference count state is clean when ublk_queue_reinit()
is called, preventing the warning and potential use-after-free.

io_uring/kbuf: always use READ_ONCE() to read ring provided buffer lengths
Since the buffers are mapped from userspace, it is prudent to use
READ_ONCE() to read the value into a local variable, and use that for
any other actions taken. Having a stable read of the buffer length
avoids worrying about it changing after checking, or being read multiple
times.
Similarly, the buffer may well change in between it being picked and
being committed. Ensure the looping for incremental ring buffer commit
stops if it hits a zero sized buffer, as no further progress can be made
at that point.

Locking fixes for fbnic driver
Address a few locking issues that were reported on the fbnic driver.
Specifically in one case we were seeing locking leaks due to us not
releasing the locks in certain exception paths. In another case we were
using phylink_resume outside of a section in which we held the RTNL mutex
and as a result we were throwing an assert.
====================
A bit of digging showed that we were invoking the phylink_resume as a part
of the fbnic_up path when we were enabling the service task while not
holding the RTNL lock. We should be enabling this sooner as a part of the
ndo_open path and then just letting the service task come online later.
This will help to enforce the correct locking and brings the phylink
interface online at the same time as the network interface, instead of at a
later time.
I tested this on QEMU to verify this was working by putting the system to
sleep using "echo mem > /sys/power/state" to put the system to sleep in the

fs/smb: Fix inconsistent refcnt update
A possible inconsistent update of refcount was identified in `smb2_compound_op`.
Such inconsistent update could lead to possible resource leaks.
Why it is a possible bug:
1. In the comment section of the function, it clearly states that the
reference to `cfile` should be dropped after calling this function.
2. Every control flow path would check and drop the reference to
`cfile`, except the patched one.
3. Existing callers would not handle refcount update of `cfile` if
-ENOMEM is returned.
To fix the bug, an extra goto label "out" is added, to make sure that the
cleanup logic would always be respected. As the problem is caused by the
allocation failure of `vars`, the cleanup logic between label "finished"
and "out" can be safely ignored. According to the definition of function
`is_replayable_error`, the error code of "-ENOMEM" is not recoverable.
Therefore, the replay logic also gets ignored.

Introduce refcount_t for reference counting of rose_neigh

follows:
1. Refactor rose_remove_neigh() to separate removal and freeing operations
2. Convert 'use' field to refcount_t for appropriate reference counting
3. Include references from rose_node to 'use' field

x86/cpu/topology: Use initial APIC ID from XTOPOLOGY leaf on AMD/HYGON
Prior to the topology parsing rewrite and the switchover to the new parsing
logic for AMD processors in
c749ce393b8f ("x86/cpu: Use common topology code for AMD"),
the initial_apicid on these platforms was:
- First initialized to the LocalApicId from CPUID leaf 0x1 EBX[31:24].
- Then overwritten by the ExtendedLocalApicId in CPUID leaf 0xb
EDX[31:0] on processors that supported topoext.
With the new parsing flow introduced in
f7fb3b2dd92c ("x86/cpu: Provide an AMD/HYGON specific topology parser"),
parse_8000_001e() now unconditionally overwrites the initial_apicid already
parsed during cpu_parse_topology_ext().
Although this has not been a problem on baremetal platforms, on virtualized AMD
guests that feature more than 255 cores, QEMU zeros out the CPUID leaf
0x8000001e on CPUs with CoreID > 255 to prevent collision of these IDs in
EBX[7:0] which can only represent a maximum of 255 cores [1].
This results in the following FW_BUG being logged when booting a guest
with more than 255 cores:

Enumeration leaf 0xb (Fn0000_000B_EDX[31:0])(which was later superseded by the
extended leaf 0x80000026) provides the full x2APIC ID under all circumstances
unlike the one reported by CPUID leaf 0x8000001e EAX which depends on the mode
in which APIC is configured.
Rely on the APIC ID parsed during cpu_parse_topology_ext() from CPUID leaf
0x80000026 or 0xb and only use the APIC ID from leaf 0x8000001e if
cpu_parse_topology_ext() failed (has_topoext is false).
On platforms that support the 0xb leaf (Zen2 or later, AMD guests on
QEMU) or the extended leaf 0x80000026 (Zen4 or later), the
initial_apicid is now set to the value parsed from EDX[31:0].
On older AMD/Hygon platforms that do not support the 0xb leaf but support the
TOPOEXT extension (families 0x15, 0x16, 0x17[Zen1], and Hygon), retain current
behavior where the initial_apicid is set using the 0x8000001e leaf.

The hv_netvsc driver currently enables NAPI after opening the primary and

receive queue may remain permanently stuck until another interrupt happens

Fix this by enabling NAPI and registering it with the RX/TX queues before
