The return value of that function is boolean and tells the caller whether
to permit the syscall processing or not.

Rename the function so the purpose is clear and make the return type bool.

<title>seccomp, treewide: Rename and convert __secure_computing() to return boolean</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7ba2ba74713c83408cc942b60dd869ab2c34c84f</id>
<content type='text'>
The return value of __secure_computing() currently uses 0 to indicate
that a system call should be allowed, and -1 to indicate that it should
be blocked/killed. This 0/-1 pattern is non-intuitive for a security
check function and makes the control flow at the call sites less readable.

Furthermore, any potential future changes to these return values would
require a high-risk, error-prone audit of all its users across different
architectures.

Sanitize this logic by converting the return type of __secure_computing()
to a proper boolean, where 'true' explicitly means 'allow' and 'false'
means 'fail/deny'.

Update all the two dozen or so call sites across the tree to align with
this new boolean semantic. No functional changes are intended, as the
callers still return -1 to the lower-level assembly entry code upon
seccomp denial.

Rename the function to __seccomp_permit_syscall() so that the purpose is
entirely clear.

[ tglx: Rename the function ]

<content type='text'>
Replace legacy gpio_request() calls used to configure function pins
(SCIF0 TXD/RXD and LAN9118 IRQ) with software nodes describing GPIO
hogs. These hogs are attached to the PFC gpiochip node, allowing the
GPIO subsystem to automatically configure these pins when the driver is
registered.

With commit e5d527be7e69 ("gpio: swnode: don't use the swnode's name as
the key for GPIO lookup") gpiolib requires that firmware nodes from the
GPIO references to match firmware node in gpiochip structure.

Define a software node for the pfc gpiochip so that it can be referenced
by boards using static device properties.

   Remove some noise from the MM selftests build

 - "mm: Free contiguous order-0 pages efficiently" (Ryan Roberts)

   Speed up the freeing of a batch of 0-order pages by first scanning
   them for coalescing opportunities. This is applicable to vfree() and
   to the releasing of frozen pages

 - "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS failed region quota charge ratio"
   (SeongJae Park)

   Address a DAMOS usability issue: The DAMOS quota often exhausts
   prematurely because it charges for all memory attempted, causing slow
   and inconsistent performance when actions fail on unreclaimable
   memory.

   To fix this, a new feature lets users set a smaller, flexible quota
   charge ratio (via a numerator and denominator) for failed regions.
   Since failed actions cause less overhead, reducing their quota cost
   ensures more predictable and efficient DAMOS processing

 - "selftests/cgroup: improve zswap tests robustness and support large
   page sizes" (Li Wang)

   Simplify deployment on diverse hardware like NUMA systems by updating
   DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT to automatically monitor the
   physical address range covering all System RAM areas by default,
   replacing the overly restrictive behavior that only targeted the

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack
     continues. In this chapter:
       - don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
       - don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
       - prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal

   - Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
     It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
     names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.

   - Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even
     tho user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the
     OOO programming model results in repeating the dump for each
     netdev. Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.

   - Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
     down), another O(n^2) -&gt; O(n) improvement.

   - Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on
     retransmit timeout.

   - Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.

   - Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.

   - Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.

   - Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
     to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
     because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 &gt;
     40).

   - Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
     Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
     deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).

   - Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
     tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).

   - Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.

   - Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).

   - Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).

   - Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).

   - Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
     migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.

     The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
     migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot
     express reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors.

     The new interface identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports
     reqid changes, address family changes, encap removal, and uses an
     atomic create+install flow under x-&gt;lock to prevent SN/IV reuse
     during AEAD SA migration.

   - Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.

   - Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.

  Cross-tree stuff:

   - Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
     Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto
     API users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into
     reference-counted objects.

   - Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the
     global crypto API as obsolete and insecure.

  Wireless:

   - Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with
     lower capability than AP.

   - Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).

   - More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
     schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)

   - Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
     (e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).

   - Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.

  Netfilter:

   - Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unnecessary
     lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
     namespaces.

   - Various safety improvements, both in packet parsing and object
     lifetimes. Notably add refcounts to conntrack timeout policy.

  Deletions:

   - Remove TLS + sockmap integration. TLS wants to pin user pages to
     avoid a copy, and sockmap wants to write to the input stream. More
     work on this integration is clearly needed, and we can't find any
     users (original author admitted that they never deployed it).

   - Remove support for TLS offload with TCP Offload Engine (the far
     more common opportunistic offload is retained). The locking looks
     unfixable (driver sleeps under TCP spin locks) and people from the
     vendor that added this are AWOL.

   - Remove more ATM code, trying to leave behind only what PPPoATM
     needs, AAL5 and br2684 with permanent circuits.

   - Remove AppleTalk. Let it join hamradio in our out of tree protocol
     graveyard, I mean, repository.

   - Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit
     kernel) interface in user namespaces. To be deleted completely,
     soon.

   - Remove 5/10 MHz support from cfg80211/mac80211.

  Drivers:

   - Software:
       - Support DEVMEM/DMABUF Tx over NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA devices (netkit)
       - bonding: add knob to strictly follow 802.3ad for link state

   - New drivers:
       - Alibaba Elastic Ethernet Adaptor (cloud vNIC).
       - NXP NETC switch within i.MX94.

   - DPLL:
       - Add operational state to pins (implement in zl3073x).
       - Add generic DPLL type, for daisy-chaining DPLLs (implement in ice).

   - Ethernet high-speed NICs:
       - Huawei (hinic3):
           - enhance tc flow offload support with queue selection,
             tunnels

           - avoid over-copying payload to the skb's linear part (up to
             60% win for LRO on slow CPUs like ARM64 V2)
           - expose more per-queue stats over the standard API
           - support additional, unprivileged PFs in the DPU
             configuration
           - support Socket Direct (multi-PF) with switchdev offloads
           - add a pool / frag allocator for DMA mapped buffers for
             control objects, save memory on systems with 64kB page size
           - take advantage of the ability to dynamically change RSS
             table size, even when table is configured by the user
           - increase the max RSS table size for even traffic
             distribution
