Johan Alvarado says: ==================== net: dsa: realtek: rtl8365mb: add SGMII/HSGMII support for RTL8367S The RTL8367S is a 5+2 port switch from the same family as the RTL8365MB-VC already supported by this driver. Its chip info table entry declares SGMII and HSGMII on external interface 1, but the driver so far only implements RGMII, leaving boards that wire the switch to the CPU over the SerDes without a working CPU port. This series implements both modes. The configuration sequence and the SerDes tuning parameters are derived from the GPL-licensed Realtek rtl8367c vendor driver, as distributed in the Mercusys MR80X GPL code drop, and cross-checked against the real register sequence captured at runtime by chainloading a custom U-Boot ahead of the stock firmware and logging the live SerDes accesses on hardware. The vendor driver brings up the SerDes by loading firmware into the switch's embedded DW8051 microcontroller. Analysis of that firmware (by Luiz Angelo Daros de Luca) showed it only performs a SerDes data-path reset right after the SerDes reset is deasserted, and then runs a link-polling loop that writes the external interface force registers -- duplicating, and racing with, the link management phylink already performs. This series therefore keeps the DW8051 disabled and performs the one necessary action (the data-path reset via the SerDes BMCR register) directly in the driver, avoiding both the race and a dependency on a redistributable firmware blob. The SerDes is modelled as a phylink PCS: mac_select_pcs() hands the SerDes interfaces to a phylink_pcs whose pcs_config()/pcs_link_up() ops own the SerDes register sequence, keeping it out of the MAC operations. In-band autonegotiation is not implemented; the link is forced (fixed-link or conventional PHY), as for RGMII, and the PCS reports this to phylink through pcs_inband_caps(). Patch 1 adds the SerDes indirect access helpers, the PCS and SGMII (1 Gbps) support. Patch 2 extends the PCS to HSGMII (2.5 Gbps), which phylink represents as 2500base-x. Tested on a Mercusys MR80X v2.20 (RTL8367S wired to the SoC over the SerDes), in both SGMII and HSGMII modes with a fixed-link device tree description: link bring-up verified across cold boots, warm reboots, module reloads and link down/up cycles, with sustained traffic and no CRC/symbol errors. The SerDes pause enables were verified by driving congestion toward a 100M user port and observing pause frame emission on the CPU port (dot3OutPauseFrames) toggle with the SDS_MISC TXFC/RXFC bits. The port 6 rate limiters were verified to be live by lowering them to 100 Mbps at runtime and observing iperf3 throughput across the CPU port clamp accordingly in each direction, recovering once the maximum was restored. The HSGMII link is confirmed running at 2.5G at the register level (SoC uniphy mode and gmac clocks); per-direction throughput could not be pushed past ~1 Gbps on this board because the SoC side is driven by the IPQ5018 SSDK and the user-facing PHY is 1G, so full 2.5G line-rate throughput remains unverified on my hardware. Independently, >1 Gbps aggregate HSGMII throughput (~2 Gbps with multiple clients) has been observed on an RTL8367S-based Mercusys MR85X running an OpenWrt backport of this series with the rate limiters raised (see patch 2). The RTL8367SB also declares SGMII and HSGMII in its chip info entry and therefore gains both modes as well. The vendor driver drives the two chips through the same code path, keyed only on the chip option register (both report chip id 0x6367), so this is expected to work there too, but I have no RTL8367SB hardware to confirm it. ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260711-rtl8367s-sgmii-v6-0-88f7944ddca7@c127.dev Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
2026-07-22net: dsa: realtek: rtl8365mb: add HSGMII support for RTL8367SJohan Alvarado
In addition to SGMII, the RTL8367S SerDes also supports HSGMII, which carries 2.5 Gbps with the same signaling as SGMII at 2.5x clock rate. The chip info table already declares HSGMII as a supported interface mode for external interface 1. Extend the SerDes PCS to handle HSGMII, which phylink represents as 2500base-x: - Select the HSGMII SerDes tuning parameters and external interface mode, and mux the SerDes to MAC8 in HSGMII mode, from pcs_config() according to the interface. The parameters are again lifted from the GPL-licensed Realtek rtl8367c vendor driver, and again only cover the tuning variant for a non-zero chip option, so the mode is gated on the option probed at setup. - Advertise 2500base-x and MAC_2500FD on ports whose external interface supports HSGMII. - Accept SPEED_2500 in the forced link configuration. The MAC speed field has no 2.5 Gbps value: the rate is determined by the HSGMII SerDes configuration, and the vendor driver programs the 1 Gbps value here, so do the same. - Raise the port 6 ingress and egress rate limiters to their maximum at setup time, as the vendor switch init does unconditionally for the whole chip family. The chip resets them to 0x1FFFF (~1.048 Gbps in units of 8 Kbps), which caps the aggregate HSGMII throughput at roughly 1 Gbps. The vendor documentation describes the reset default as disabling the limiter, but the cap is real: on an RTL8367S-based Mercusys MR85X running an OpenWrt backport of this series, several clients on 1 Gbps user ports were limited to about 1.02 Gbps combined across the HSGMII CPU port until these limiters were raised, after which throughput reached about 2 Gbps [1]. The related HSGMII scheduler line rate (LINE_RATE_HSG_H) is already set to its maximum by the common init jam table. Tested on a Mercusys MR80X v2.20, where the RTL8367S is connected to the SoC over HSGMII.

2026-07-22net: dsa: realtek: rtl8365mb: add SGMII support for RTL8367SJohan Alvarado
The RTL8367S can mux its embedded SerDes to external interface 1, which is typically used to connect the switch to a CPU port. The chip info table already declares SGMII as a supported interface mode for this chip, but the driver only implements RGMII so far. Implement SGMII support as a phylink PCS, with the configuration sequence derived from the GPL-licensed Realtek rtl8367c vendor driver as distributed in the Mercusys MR80X GPL code drop: - Add accessors for the SerDes indirect access registers (SDS_INDACS), through which the SerDes internal registers are reached. - Register a phylink_pcs for the SerDes, selected from mac_select_pcs for the SGMII interface, so the SerDes handling lives in the PCS operations rather than in the MAC operations. - Probe the SerDes tuning variant from the chip option register once at setup. The vendor driver keeps two sets of SerDes tuning parameters and selects between them based on this option; only the variant for a non-zero option (which all RTL8367S parts seen so far report) has been validated on hardware, so the SerDes interface modes are only advertised in that case. An unsupported variant thus fails at phylink validation time instead of at link configuration time. - Keep the embedded DW8051 microcontroller in reset and disabled. The vendor driver loads firmware into it to manage the SerDes link, but analysis of that firmware shows it only duplicates the link management phylink already performs: it polls the port status and writes the external interface force registers behind the driver's back. - Clear the line rate bypass bit for the external interface, tune the SerDes with the vendor-prescribed parameters, mux the SerDes to MAC8 in SGMII mode and only then take the SerDes out of reset, as the vendor driver does. - After deasserting the SerDes reset, reset the SerDes data path via the SerDes BMCR register to flush the FIFOs and resync the PLL. This mirrors what the vendor firmware does right after deasserting the SerDes reset, and ensures a clean link state from cold boot. - Force the SGMII link parameters (link, speed, duplex) in the SDS_MISC register from pcs_link_up(). SGMII in-band autonegotiation is not implemented, so only fixed-link and conventional PHY setups are supported, just like RGMII. This is reported to phylink through pcs_inband_caps() returning LINK_INBAND_DISABLE, so phylink never selects an in-band-enabled negotiation mode for this PCS. - Program the SerDes pause enables in SDS_MISC from the resolved pause modes when forcing the MAC external interface in mac_link_up, as the vendor driver does, rather than leaving whatever state the boot firmware left there. Flow control testing shows these bits, not the MAC force pause bits, gate pause on the SerDes external interface. This is done in the MAC layer because pcs_link_up() carries no pause information. - Implement pcs_get_state() by reading the link status from the SerDes, with the forced speed and duplex read back from SDS_MISC. Although the supported fixed-link and conventional PHY setups do not use it, the PCS owns the SerDes link state, and phylink consults pcs_get_state() to track the physical link when operating in in-band mode with autonegotiation disabled. The SerDes has no link interrupt wired up, so the PCS sets its poll flag. Tested on a Mercusys MR80X v2.20, where the RTL8367S is connected to the SoC over SGMII.

2026-07-22jbd2: bound shrinker scans by examined checkpoint buffersMax Kellermann
The jbd2 shrinker currently accounts only checkpoint buffers that it successfully releases against nr_to_scan. Busy buffers therefore do not consume the scan budget. If a checkpoint transaction contains mostly busy buffers, the shrinker can scan its entire checkpoint list while holding journal->j_list_lock. Large checkpoint lists can result in excessive lock hold times and leave other CPUs spinning on j_list_lock, causing soft lockups or RCU stalls. Pass nr_to_scan into journal_shrink_one_cp_list() and decrement it for every buffer examined, including busy buffers. Pass NULL from checkpoint cleanup paths so their existing full-list behavior is preserved. This restores the scan-budget semantics that existed before journal_shrink_one_cp_list() was changed to always scan a complete checkpoint list.

2026-07-22jbd2: check need_resched() when skipping busy checkpoint buffersMax Kellermann
journal_shrink_one_cp_list() skips busy checkpoint buffers when called with JBD2_SHRINK_BUSY_SKIP. The continue statement on this path also skips the need_resched() check at the end of the loop body. Consequently, when a checkpoint list contains mostly busy buffers, the shrinker can walk the entire list while holding journal->j_list_lock, even when a reschedule has been requested. Large checkpoint lists under memory pressure can therefore cause long lock hold times and leave other CPUs spinning on j_list_lock, resulting in soft lockups or RCU stalls. Route the busy-buffer path through the need_resched() check so that the shrinker can release j_list_lock and reschedule promptly, restoring parity with the clean-buffer path, which already checks need_resched(). This does not change which checkpoint buffers are eligible for removal.

Add a helper that drops an inode reference only if the caller does not hold the last one. Returns true if the reference was dropped, false otherwise. This is useful for filesystems that need to release inode references in contexts where triggering final iput (and thus eviction) would be unsafe due to lock ordering constraints. The caller can check the return value and defer the final iput to a safe context. Unlike iput_not_last() which BUG_ON's if called with the last ref, this variant is designed to be called speculatively.

Now that ext4_put_ea_inode() handles deferred iput safely for all cases (using iput_if_not_last + embedded llist_node), the ea_inode_array mechanism for batching deferred iputs is redundant.

Convert all iput() calls on EA inodes in xattr code paths to use ext4_put_ea_inode().

Converted sites: - ext4_xattr_inode_get() read path - ext4_xattr_inode_inc_ref_all() main loop and cleanup path - ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all() error paths - ext4_xattr_inode_create() error path - ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find() mismatch path - ext4_xattr_inode_lookup_create() out_err - ext4_xattr_set_entry() old_ea_inode - ext4_xattr_block_set() new block path, cleanup, and tmp_inode - ext4_xattr_ibody_set() error and success paths - ext4_xattr_delete_inode() quota loop For most of these, iput_if_not_last() will succeed (the EA inode has other references) making the overhead a single atomic operation.

2026-07-22ext4: introduce ext4_put_ea_inode() for safe deferred iputYun Zhou
Calling iput() on EA inodes while holding xattr_sem or a jbd2 handle can trigger write_inode_now() -> ext4_writepages() -> s_writepages_rwsem, creating a lock ordering issue during mount (!SB_ACTIVE). Add ext4_put_ea_inode() which uses iput_if_not_last() as a fast path. If this is not the last reference, it is dropped immediately. If this is the last reference, the inode is linked onto a per-sb lock-free llist via i_ea_iput_node (embedded in ext4_inode_info, sharing space with the unused xattr_sem of EA inodes via a union) and a delayed worker (1 jiffie) performs the final iput() in a clean context. This avoids per-iput memory allocation. Flush points ensure all pending EA inode evictions complete before dependent resources become unavailable: - ext4_put_super / failed_mount9: before quota shutdown - failed_mount_wq: before freeing xattr caches - failed_mount3a: before freeing shrinker (journal replay case) - ext4_sync_fs: before remount-ro, freeze, or sync completes Initialization is placed before journal loading since fast commit replay may trigger evictions that call ext4_put_ea_inode(). Also moves init_rwsem(xattr_sem) from init_once to ext4_alloc_inode to handle slab object reuse after the union field has been overwritten.

2026-07-22ext4: check dir entry fits before reading the hash trailer in ext4_search_dir()Xiang Mei
For casefolded encrypted directories ext4 stores an 8-byte hash trailer after the name (EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES()), at an offset derived from de->name_len. On the sb_no_casefold_compat_fallback() path ext4_match() reads that trailer, but ext4_search_dir()'s by-hand pre-check only tests de->name + de->name_len <= dlimit, which proves the name fits, not the rounded trailer. A crafted entry whose name ends at the block boundary passes the check while EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES(de) lands past the block end, so ext4_match() reads out of bounds on an ordinary lookup. KASAN reports it as a use-after-free when the page after the directory block holds a freed object: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ext4_match (fs/ext4/namei.c:1435) Read of size 4 at addr ffff888010458000 by task exploit Call Trace: ext4_match (fs/ext4/namei.c:1435) ext4_search_dir (fs/ext4/namei.c:1470) __ext4_find_entry (fs/ext4/namei.c:1268 fs/ext4/namei.c:1632) ext4_lookup (fs/ext4/namei.c:1703 fs/ext4/namei.c:1769) ... filename_lookup (fs/namei.c:2842) vfs_statx (fs/stat.c:353) __do_sys_newfstatat (fs/stat.c:538) do_syscall_64 (arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94) entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:121) Require, for hash-in-dirent directories, that the whole entry including the rounded trailer fits before calling ext4_match().

However, ext4_fc_replay_add_range() and ext4_fc_replay_del_range() currently return 0 from their common exit paths even after internal failures. This hides errors from ext4_fc_record_modified_inode(), ext4_map_blocks(), ext4_find_extent(), ext4_ext_insert_extent(), ext4_ext_replay_update_ex(), and ext4_ext_remove_space(). As a result, a failed ADD_RANGE or DEL_RANGE replay can be treated as successful and the replay code may continue with subsequent fast commit tags. This is particularly problematic for DEL_RANGE because it may already have marked blocks as free before ext4_ext_remove_space() fails. If the error is swallowed, replay may continue from a partially applied range operation. Return the saved error from the common exit paths and make the ERR_PTR() cases in ADD_RANGE store PTR_ERR() before jumping to out.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: fix survey indexing across bandsMatthew Leach
When running 'iw dev wlan0 survey dump' the values for the channel busy time have the same sequence across bands. This is caused by indexing into the ath12k survey array using a band-local index rather than the global index passed by mac80211. This results in surveys for 5 GHz and 6 GHz channels returning values from 2.4 GHz slots, making the survey unusable on those bands. Further, there are redundant survey slots for multi-radio/single-phy instances. Fix by moving the survey data into ath12k_hw so multiple radios under a single wiphy share one table, and index into it using the global mac80211 index. A new spinlock in ath12k_hw serialises access to the survey array, which is now shared across all radios under a single hw.

Currently, the station always follows the listen interval regardless of the DTIM value. The DTIM function does not work as expected. The default value of the listen interval is 5 so that the STA wakes up every 500ms when power save is on. This can cause a data transmission delay. Set the DTIM policy to DTIM stick mode so that the station follows the AP DTIM interval rather than the listen interval, which is set in the peer assoc command. DTIM stick mode is preferable per the firmware team's request.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: allocate HOST_DDR and BDF regions after Q6 RO regionAaradhana Sahu
Currently, the Q6 region contains a read-only firmware region along with the BDF_MEM_REGION_TYPE and HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE memory areas. The firmware expects these writable memory regions to be assigned after the Q6 read-only section. However, the ath12k driver currently allocates the HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE starting from the base of the Q6 region, which includes the read-only firmware area. As a result, the allocated memory regions overlap with the read-only section, causing the firmware to assert during QMI memory allocation. The Q6 memory region layout is as follows: Q6 Reserved Memory +--------------------------------------+ | | | Read-only Firmware Region | | (Q6 RO Region) | | | +--------------------------------------+ <--- bdf_addr_offset | Writable Memory Region | | (BDF + HOST_DDR allocations) | | | +--------------------------------------+ Fix this by allocating the required memory regions only after the end of the read-only region in the Q6 address space. The bdf_addr_offset parameter indicates where the writable region starts. Both HOST_DDR and BDF regions are allocated sequentially after this offset, with each region placed immediately after the previous one to avoid gaps and overlaps.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: Set congestion control max MSDU countThiraviyam Mariyappan
Currently when running 128 clients UDP DL test in 5 GHz HE80 (NSS 2x2), firmware uses the default max MSDU count (16K MSDUs). This lower limit causes the firmware to compute a smaller TQM drop threshold, aggregate packets at a reduced rate, and results in increased packet drops with TQM drop threshold as the completion reason. To fix this issue, set WMI_PDEV_PARAM_SET_CONG_CTRL_MAX_MSDUS to the TX descriptor count using ath12k_wmi_pdev_set_param(). This increases the TQM drop threshold, reduces drop events, and improves throughput from ~722 Mbps to ~1060 Mbps with 1200 Mbps ingress. Add a new HW capability flag (supports_cong_ctrl_max_msdus) and enable the WMI parameter only on supported platforms.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: update IPQ5332 BDF address offsetAaradhana Sahu
In the ath12k driver, the BDF_MEM_REGION_TYPE address is derived by adding a fixed bdf_addr_offset to the WCSS Q6 region base address. The current offset (0xC00000) works only when the Q6 region contains the IPQ5332 ucode alone. On some IPQ5332 platform variants, additional devices share the same WCSS Q6 processor and place their firmware ucode in the same Q6 region. This results in multiple ucode sections within the region, and the existing offset can cause the BDF memory region to overlap with firmware read-only sections, which can lead to firmware crash and driver boot failure. Increase the bdf_addr_offset to 0x1A00000, determined by analyzing firmware memory maps across all known IPQ5332 platform variants. This value represents the upper bound of the largest combined firmware and ensures all IPQ5332 variants can allocate the BDF region safely without overlapping firmware regions.

2026-07-22wifi: ath12k: fix ML-STA authentication timeout on QCC2072Miaoqing Pan
QCC2072 firmware interprets the MLO_LINK_ADD and MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE flags to control the link state during MLO vdev start. MLO_LINK_ADD indicates that a link is being added, while MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE specifies that the link should become active during the start. When an association link is added without setting MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE, the firmware may transition the link into a suspended state. In this case, authentication frames transmitted by the host can be dropped, leading to repeated authentication retries and eventual timeout, for example: wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 1/3) wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 2/3) wlp1s0: send auth to <AP> (try 3/3) wlp1s0: authentication with <AP> timed out Avoid triggering this behavior by setting the MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE flag when MLO_ASSOC_LINK is set, which tells the firmware that the current vdev must not enter suspend mode Note that this change relies on firmware behavior observed on the QCC2072 platform. The firmware on WCN7850 and QCN9274 does not use the MLO_START_AS_ACTIVE flag, so this change is effectively a no-op on those platforms Tested-on: QCC2072 hw1.0 PCI WLAN.COL.1.0.c2-00068-QCACOLSWPL_V1_TO_SILICONZ-1 Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.1.c5-00302-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-1.115823.3 Fixes: d8e1f4a19310 ("wifi: ath12k: enable QCC2072 support") Signed-off-by: Miaoqing Pan <miaoqing.pan@oss.qualcomm.com> Reviewed-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanthakumar.thiagarajan@oss.qualcomm.com> Reviewed-by: Baochen Qiang <baochen.qiang@oss.qualcomm.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260704073000.3300099-1-miaoqing.pan@oss.qualcomm.com Signed-off-by: Jeff Johnson <jeff.johnson@oss.qualcomm.com>

2026-07-22wifi: ath10k: trigger hardware recovery upon rx failuresManikanta Pubbisetty
When an error occurs during RX packet processing (e.g., MSDU done failure), the driver sets rx_confused and drops all subsequent RX packets until a Wi-Fi ON/OFF cycle clears the flag. This can leave the device in a bad state where it cannot process RX data traffic. Instead of leaving the device in such a state, trigger hardware recovery so that such an error state can be reset and the device can function again normally.

Currently, IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_ENCAP_4ADDR is set when IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_ENCAP_ENABLED is present in vif->offload_flags at the beginning of ath12k_mac_update_vif_offload(). However, if the WMI vdev set_param for tx_encap_type fails, IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_ENCAP_ENABLED is cleared but IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_ENCAP_4ADDR remains set, leaving the flags in an inconsistent state. Fix this by setting IEEE80211_OFFLOAD_ENCAP_4ADDR only after the tx_encap_type has been configured via the WMI vdev set parameter. Compile tested only.
