Commit 719e1f561a ("ACPI: Execute platform _OSC also with query bit
clear") makes acpi_bus_osc_negotiate_platform_control() not only query
the platforms capabilities but it also commits the result back to the
firmware to report which capabilities are supported by the OS back to
the firmware
On certain systems the BIOS loads SSDT tables dynamically based on the
capabilities the OS claims to support. However, on these systems the
_OSC actually clears some of the bits (under certain conditions) so what
happens is that now when we call the _OSC twice the second time we pass
the cleared values and that results errors like below to appear on the
system log:
ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [\_PR.PR00._CPC], AE_NOT_FOUND (20210105/psargs-330)
ACPI Error: Aborting method \_PR.PR01._CPC due to previous error (AE_NOT_FOUND) (20210105/psparse-529)
In addition the ACPI 6.4 spec says following [1]:
If the OS declares support of a feature in the Support Field in one
call to _OSC, then it must preserve the set state of that bit
(declaring support for that feature) in all subsequent calls.
Based on the above we can fix the issue by passing the same set of
capabilities to the platform wide _OSC in both calls regardless of the
query flag.
While there drop the context.ret.length checks which were wrong to begin
with (as the length is number of bytes not elements). This is already
checked in acpi_run_osc() that also returns an error in that case.
Includes fixes by Hans de Goede.

Commit 95722237cb ("ACPI: sleep: Put the FACS table after using it")
puts the FACS table during initialization.
But the hardware signature bits in the FACS table need to be accessed,
after every hibernation, to compare with the original hardware
signature.
So there is no reason to release the FACS table mapping after
initialization.
This reverts commit 95722237cb.
An alternative solution is to use acpi_gbl_FACS variable instead, which
is mapped by the ACPICA core and never released.

Commit 7e4fdeafa6 ("ACPI: power: Turn off unused power resources
unconditionally") dropped the power resource state check from
acpi_turn_off_unused_power_resources(), because according to the
ACPI specification (e.g. ACPI 6.4, Section 7.2.2) the OS "may run
the _OFF method repeatedly, even if the resource is already off".
However, it turns out that some systems do not follow the
specification in this particular respect and that commit introduced
boot issues on them, so refine acpi_turn_off_unused_power_resources()
to only turn off power resources without any users after device
enumeration and restore its previous behavior in the system-wide
resume path.

ACPI 6.4 introduced the "SpaLocationCookie" to the NFIT "System Physical
Address (SPA) Range Structure". The presence of that new field is
indicated by the ACPI_NFIT_LOCATION_COOKIE_VALID flag. Pre-ACPI-6.4
firmware implementations omit the flag and maintain the original size of
the structure.
Update the implementation to check that flag to determine the size
rather than the ACPI 6.4 compliant definition of 'struct
acpi_nfit_system_address' from the Linux ACPICA definitions.
Update the test infrastructure for the new expectations as well, i.e.
continue to emulate the ACPI 6.3 definition of that structure.
Without this fix the kernel fails to validate 'SPA' structures and this
leads to a crash in nfit_get_smbios_id() since that routine assumes that
SPAs are valid if it finds valid SMBIOS tables.
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffffffffa8

Including:
- Big cleanup of almost unsused parts of the IOMMU API by

driver.
- New IOMMU driver for Unisoc SOCs
- ARM SMMU Updates from Will:
- SMMUv3: Drop vestigial PREFETCH_ADDR support
- SMMUv3: Elide TLB sync logic for empty gather
- SMMUv3: Fix "Service Failure Mode" handling
- SMMUv2: New Qualcomm compatible string
- Removal of the AMD IOMMU performance counter writeable check
on AMD. It caused long boot delays on some machines and is
only needed to work around an errata on some older (possibly
pre-production) chips. If someone is still hit by this
hardware issue anyway the performance counters will just
return 0.
- Support for targeted invalidations in the AMD IOMMU driver.
Before that the driver only invalidated a single 4k page or the
whole IO/TLB for an address space. This has been extended now
and is mostly useful for emulated AMD IOMMUs.
- Several fixes for the Shared Virtual Memory support in the
Intel VT-d driver
- Mediatek drivers can now be built as modules
- Re-introduction of the forcedac boot option which got lost
when converting the Intel VT-d driver to the common dma-iommu
implementation.
- Extension of the IOMMU device registration interface and
support iommu_ops to be const again when drivers are built as
modules.

Merge tag 'iommu-updates-v5.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu
Pull iommu updates from Joerg Roedel:
- Big cleanup of almost unsused parts of the IOMMU API by Christoph
Hellwig. This mostly affects the Freescale PAMU driver.
- New IOMMU driver for Unisoc SOCs
- ARM SMMU Updates from Will:
- Drop vestigial PREFETCH_ADDR support (SMMUv3)
- Elide TLB sync logic for empty gather (SMMUv3)
- Fix "Service Failure Mode" handling (SMMUv3)
- New Qualcomm compatible string (SMMUv2)
- Removal of the AMD IOMMU performance counter writeable check on AMD.
It caused long boot delays on some machines and is only needed to
work around an errata on some older (possibly pre-production) chips.
If someone is still hit by this hardware issue anyway the performance
counters will just return 0.
- Support for targeted invalidations in the AMD IOMMU driver. Before
that the driver only invalidated a single 4k page or the whole IO/TLB
for an address space. This has been extended now and is mostly useful
for emulated AMD IOMMUs.
- Several fixes for the Shared Virtual Memory support in the Intel VT-d
driver
- Mediatek drivers can now be built as modules
- Re-introduction of the forcedac boot option which got lost when
converting the Intel VT-d driver to the common dma-iommu
implementation.
- Extension of the IOMMU device registration interface and support
iommu_ops to be const again when drivers are built as modules.

Merge tag 'cfi-v5.13-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux
Pull CFI on arm64 support from Kees Cook:
"This builds on last cycle's LTO work, and allows the arm64 kernels to
be built with Clang's Control Flow Integrity feature. This feature has
happily lived in Android kernels for almost 3 years[1], so I'm excited
to have it ready for upstream.
The wide diffstat is mainly due to the treewide fixing of mismatched
list_sort prototypes. Other things in core kernel are to address
various CFI corner cases. The largest code portion is the CFI runtime
implementation itself (which will be shared by all architectures
implementing support for CFI). The arm64 pieces are Acked by arm64
maintainers rather than coming through the arm64 tree since carrying
this tree over there was going to be awkward.
CFI support for x86 is still under development, but is pretty close.
There are a handful of corner cases on x86 that need some improvements
to Clang and objtool, but otherwise works well.

When using ACPI on arm64, which implies the GIC IRQ model, no
table should ever provide a GSI number in the range [0:15],
as these are reserved for IPIs.
However, drivers tend to call acpi_unregister_gsi() with any
random GSI number provided by half baked tables, which results
in an exploding kernel when its IPIs have been unconfigured.
In order to catch this, check for the silly case early, warn
that something is going wrong and avoid the above disaster.

When failing the driver probe because of invalid firmware properties,
the GTDT driver unmaps the interrupt that it mapped earlier.
However, it never checks whether the mapping of the interrupt actially
succeeded. Even more, should the firmware report an illegal interrupt
number that overlaps with the GIC SGI range, this can result in an
IPI being unmapped, and subsequent fireworks (as reported by Dann
Frazier).
Rework the driver to have a slightly saner behaviour and actually
check whether the interrupt has been mapped before unmapping things.

The PCIe controller in Tegra194 SoC is not ECAM-compliant. With the
current hardware design, ECAM can be enabled only for one controller (the
C5 controller) with bus numbers starting from 160 instead of 0. A different
approach is taken to avoid this abnormal way of enabling ECAM for just one
controller but to enable configuration space access for all the other
controllers. In this approach, ops are added through MCFG quirk mechanism
which access the configuration spaces by dynamically programming iATU
(internal AddressTranslation Unit) to generate respective configuration
accesses just like the way it is done in DesignWare core sub-system.
This issue is specific to Tegra194 and it would be fixed in the future
generations of Tegra SoCs.

list_sort() internally casts the comparison function passed to it
to a different type with constant struct list_head pointers, and
uses this pointer to call the functions, which trips indirect call
Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) checking.
Instead of removing the consts, this change defines the
list_cmp_func_t type and changes the comparison function types of
all list_sort() callers to use const pointers, thus avoiding type
mismatches.

All of the CPPC sysfs show functions are called via indirect call in
kobj_attr_show(), where they should be of type
ssize_t (*show)(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobj_attribute *attr, char *buf);
because that is the type of the ->show() member in
'struct kobj_attribute' but they are actually of type
ssize_t (*show)(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr, char *buf);
because of the ->show() member in 'struct cppc_attr', resulting in a
Control Flow Integrity violation [1].

As far as I can tell, the only difference between 'struct cppc_attr'
and 'struct kobj_attribute' aside from the type of the attr parameter
is the type of the count parameter in the ->store() member (ssize_t vs.
size_t), which does not actually matter because all of these nodes are
read-only.
Eliminate 'struct cppc_attr' in favor of 'struct kobj_attribute' to fix

Starting with Windows 8, Windows no longer uses the ACPI-video interface
for backlight control by default. Instead backlight control is left up
to the GPU drivers and these are typically directly accessing the GPU
for this instead of going through ACPI.
This means that the ACPI video interface is no longer being tested by
many vendors, which leads to false-positive /sys/class/backlight entries
on devices which don't have a backlight at all such as desktops or
top-set boxes. These false-positives causes desktop environments to show
a non functional brightness slider in various places.
Checking the LCD flag greatly reduces the amount of false-positives,
so commit 5928c28152 ("ACPI / video: Default lcd_only to true on
Win8-ready and newer machines") enabled the checking of this flag
by default on all win8 BIOS-es. But this let to regressions on some
models, so the check was made stricter adding a DMI chassis-type check
to only enable the LCD flag checking on desktop/server chassis.
Unfortunately the chassis-type reported in the DMI strings is not always
reliable. One class of devices where this is a problem is Intel Bay Trail-T
based top-set boxes / mini PCs / HDMI sticks. These are based on reference
designs which were targetets and the reference design BIOS code
is often used without changing the chassis-type to something more
appropriate.
There are many, many Bay Trail-T based devices affected by this, so DMI
quirking our way out of this is a bad idea. This patch takes a different
approach, Bay Trail-T (unlike regular Bay Trail) is an ACPI-reduced-hw
platform and ACPI-reduced-hw platforms generally don't have
an embedded-controller and thus will use a native (GPU specific) backlight
interface. This patch enables Checking the LCD flag by default on
ACPI-reduced-hw platforms with a win8 BIOS independent of the reported
chassis-type, fixing the false positive /sys/class/backlight entries
on these devices.
Note in hindsight I should have never added the DMI chassis-type check
when the enabling of LCD flag checking on Windows 8 BIOS-es let to some
regressions. Instead I should have added DMI quirks for the (presumably
few) models where the LCD flag check let to issues. But I'm afraid that
it is too late to change this now, changing this now will likely lead to
a bunch of regressions.
This patch was tested on a Mele PCG03 mini PC.
