2026-06-04accel/ethosu: fix OOB write in ethosu_gem_cmdstream_copy_and_validate()Muhammad Bilal
The command stream parsing loop increments the index variable a second time when a 64-bit command word is encountered (bit 14 set), but does not re-check the loop bound before writing the second word: for (i = 0; i < size / 4; i++) { bocmds[i] = cmds[0]; if (cmd & 0x4000) { i++; bocmds[i] = cmds[1]; /* unchecked */ } } The buffer bocmds is backed by a DMA allocation of exactly size bytes from drm_gem_dma_create(ddev, size), giving valid indices [0, size/4-1]. When i == size/4 - 1 on entry to an iteration and bit 14 of cmds[0] is set, bocmds[size/4-1] is written in bounds, i is then incremented to size/4, and bocmds[size/4] writes four bytes past the end of the allocation. Userspace controls both the buffer contents and the size argument via the ioctl, making this a userspace-triggerable heap out-of-bounds write. Fix by checking the incremented index against the buffer bound before the second write and returning -EINVAL if the buffer is too small to contain the extended command.

2026-06-04accel/ethosu: reject DMA commands with uninitialized lengthMuhammad Bilal
cmd_state_init() initializes the command state with memset(0xff), leaving dma->len at U64_MAX to signal missing setup. The only setter is NPU_SET_DMA0_LEN; if userspace omits this command and issues NPU_OP_DMA_START, dma->len remains U64_MAX. In dma_length(), a positive stride added to U64_MAX wraps to a small value. With size0 == 1, check_mul_overflow() does not trigger and dma_length() returns 0 instead of U64_MAX. The caller's U64_MAX check then passes, region_size[] stays 0, and the bounds check in ethosu_job.c is bypassed, allowing hardware to execute DMA with stale physical addresses. Fix by checking for U64_MAX at the start of dma_length() before any arithmetic, consistent with the sentinel value used throughout the driver to detect uninitialized fields.

2026-06-04accel/ethosu: fix arithmetic issues in dma_length()Muhammad Bilal
dma_length() derives DMA region usage from command stream values and updates region_size[]: len = ((len + stride[0]) * size0 + stride[1]) * size1 region_size[region] = max(..., len + dma->offset) Several arithmetic issues can corrupt the derived region size: - signed stride values may underflow when added to len - intermediate multiplications may overflow - len + dma->offset may overflow during region_size updates - dma_length() error returns were not validated by the caller region_size[] is later used by ethosu_job.c to validate command stream accesses against GEM buffer sizes. Arithmetic wraparound can therefore under-report region usage and bypass the bounds validation. Fix by validating signed additions, using overflow helpers for multiplications and offset updates, and propagating dma_length() failures to the caller.

2026-06-04accel/ethosu: fix wrong weight index in NPU_SET_SCALE1_LENGTH on U85Muhammad Bilal
On non-U65 hardware (e.g. U85), opcode 0x4093 is NPU_SET_WEIGHT2_LENGTH. The BASE handler for the same opcode correctly assigns to st.weight[2].base, but the LENGTH handler mistakenly assigns cmds[1] to st.weight[1].length instead of st.weight[2].length. This leaves weight[2].length at its initialised sentinel value of 0xffffffff and corrupts weight[1].length with the user-supplied value, breaking the software bounds-check state for both weight buffers on U85. Fix the index to match the BASE handler.

2026-06-04accel/ethosu: reject NPU_OP_RESIZE commands from userspaceMuhammad Bilal
NPU_OP_RESIZE is a U85-only command that the driver does not yet implement. The existing WARN_ON(1) placeholder fires unconditionally whenever userspace submits this command via DRM_IOCTL_ETHOSU_GEM_CREATE, causing unbounded kernel log spam. If panic_on_warn is set the kernel panics, giving any unprivileged user with access to the DRM device a trivial denial-of-service primitive. Replace the WARN_ON(1) with an explicit -EINVAL return so the ioctl rejects the command before it reaches hardware.

2026-06-04accel/ethosu: fix IFM region index out-of-bounds in command stream parserMuhammad Bilal
NPU_SET_IFM_REGION extracts the region index with param & 0x7f, giving a maximum value of 127. However region_size[] and output_region[] in struct ethosu_validated_cmdstream_info are both sized to NPU_BASEP_REGION_MAX (8), giving valid indices [0..7]. Every other region assignment in the same switch uses param & 0x7: NPU_SET_OFM_REGION: st.ofm.region = param & 0x7; NPU_SET_IFM2_REGION: st.ifm2.region = param & 0x7; NPU_SET_WEIGHT_REGION: st.weight[0].region = param & 0x7; NPU_SET_SCALE_REGION: st.scale[0].region = param & 0x7; The 0x7f mask on IFM is inconsistent and appears to be a typo. feat_matrix_length() and calc_sizes() use the region index directly as an array subscript into the kzalloc'd info struct: info->region_size[fm->region] = max(...); A userspace caller supplying NPU_SET_IFM_REGION with param > 7 causes a write up to 127*8 = 1016 bytes past the start of region_size[], corrupting adjacent kernel heap data. Fix by applying the same & 0x7 mask used by all other region assignments.

If the command stream has larger padding sizes than the IFM and OFM diminsions, then the calculations will underflow to a negative value. The result is a very large region bounds which is caught on submit, but it's better to catch it earlier. Current mesa ethosu driver has a signedness bug which resulted in padding of 127 (the max) and triggers this issue.

2026-02-21Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL argumentsLinus Torvalds
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2025-10-24accel: Add Arm Ethos-U NPU driverRob Herring (Arm)
Add a driver for Arm Ethos-U65/U85 NPUs. The Ethos-U NPU has a relatively simple interface with single command stream to describe buffers, operation settings, and network operations. It supports up to 8 memory regions (though no h/w bounds on a region). The Ethos NPUs are designed to use an SRAM for scratch memory. Region 2 is reserved for SRAM (like the downstream driver stack and compiler). Userspace doesn't need access to the SRAM. The h/w has no MMU nor external IOMMU and is a DMA engine which can read and write anywhere in memory without h/w bounds checks. The user submitted command streams must be validated against the bounds of the GEM BOs. This is similar to the VC4 design which validates shaders. The job submit is based on the rocket driver for the Rockchip NPU utilizing the GPU scheduler. It is simpler as there's only 1 core rather than 3. Tested on i.MX93 platform (U65) and FVP (U85) with Mesa Teflon support.
