The AI-generated review reported a potential DMA use-after-free issue
[1]. If netc_xmit_ntmp_cmd() times out and returns an error, the pending
command is not explicitly aborted, while ntmp_free_data_mem()
unconditionally frees the DMA buffer. If the buffer has already been
reallocated elsewhere, this may lead to silent memory corruption. Because
the hardware eventually processes the pending command and perform a DMA
write of the response to the physical address of the freed buffer.
To resolve this issue, this patch does the following modifications:
1. Convert cbdr->ring_lock from a spinlock to a mutex
The lock was originally a spinlock in case NTMP operations might be
invoked from atomic context. After downstream support for all NTMP
tables, no such usage has materialized. A mutex lock is now required
because the driver now needs to reclaim used BDs and release associated
DMA memory within the lock's context, while dma_free_coherent() might
sleep.
2. Introduce software command BD (struct netc_swcbd)
The hardware write-back overwrites the addr and len fields of the BD,
so the driver cannot rely on the hardware BD to free the associated DMA
memory. The driver now maintains a software shadow BD storing the DMA
buffer pointer, DMA address, and size. And netc_xmit_ntmp_cmd() only
reclaims older BDs when the number of used BDs reaches
NETC_CBDR_CLEAN_WORK (16). The software BD enables correct DMA memory
release. With this, struct ntmp_dma_buf and ntmp_free_data_mem() are no
longer needed and are removed.
3. Require callers to hold ring_lock across netc_xmit_ntmp_cmd()
netc_xmit_ntmp_cmd() releases the ring_lock before the caller finishes
consuming the response. At this point, if a concurrent thread submits
a new command, it may trigger ntmp_clean_cbdr() and free the DMA buffer
while it is still in use. Move ring_lock ownership to the caller to
ensure the response buffer cannot be reclaimed prematurely. So the
helpers ntmp_select_and_lock_cbdr() and ntmp_unlock_cbdr() are added.
These changes eliminate the DMA use-after-free condition and ensure safe
and consistent BD reclamation and DMA buffer lifecycle management.

Some NETC functionality is controlled using control messages sent to the
hardware using BD ring interface with 32B descriptor similar to transmit
BD ring used on ENETC. This BD ring interface is referred to as command
BD ring. It is used to configure functionality where the underlying
resources may be shared between different entities or being too large to
configure using direct registers. Therefore, a messaging protocol called
NETC Table Management Protocol (NTMP) is provided for exchanging
configuration and management information between the software and the
hardware using the command BD ring interface.
For the management protocol of LS1028A has been retroactively named NTMP
1.0, and its implementation is in enetc_cbdr.c and enetc_qos.c. However,
NTMP of i.MX95 has been upgraded to version 2.0, which is incompatible
with LS1028A, because the message formats have been changed. Therefore,
add the netc-lib driver to support NTMP 2.0 to operate various tables.
Note that, only MAC address filter table and RSS table are supported at
the moment. More tables will be supported in subsequent patches.
It is worth mentioning that the purpose of the netc-lib driver is to
provide some NTMP-based generic interfaces for ENETC and NETC Switch
drivers. Currently, it only supports the configurations of some tables.
Interfaces such as tc flower and debugfs will be added in the future.

The netc-blk-ctrl driver is used to configure Integrated Endpoint
Register Block (IERB) and Privileged Register Block (PRB) of NETC.
For i.MX platforms, it is also used to configure the NETCMIX block.
The IERB contains registers that are used for pre-boot initialization,
debug, and non-customer configuration. The PRB controls global reset
and global error handling for NETC. The NETCMIX block is mainly used
to set MII protocol and PCS protocol of the links, it also contains
settings for some other functions.
Note the IERB configuration registers can only be written after being
unlocked by PRB, otherwise, all write operations are inhibited. A warm
reset is performed when the IERB is unlocked, and it results in an FLR
to all NETC devices. Therefore, all NETC device drivers must be probed
or initialized after the warm reset is finished.

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be
changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one
step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct
device_driver in read-only memory.
Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified
to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of()
calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *.
For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in
the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at
this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.)
That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their
struct device * in read-only-memory.

The value returned by an fsl-mc driver's remove function is mostly
ignored. (Only an error message is printed if the value is non-zero
and then device removal continues unconditionally.)
So change the prototype of the remove function to return no value. This
way driver authors are not tempted to assume that passing an error to
the upper layer is a good idea. All drivers are adapted accordingly.
There is no intended change of behaviour, all callbacks were prepared to
return 0 before.

1588 driver loses about 1us in adjtime operation at PTP slave
This is because adjtime operation uses a slow non-atomic tmr_cnt_read()
followed by tmr_cnt_write() operation.
In the above sequence, since the timer counter operation keeps
incrementing, it leads to latency. The tmr_offset register
(which is added to TMR_CNT_H/L register giving the current time)
must be programmed with the delta nanoseconds.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the set of driver core changes for 5.19-rc1.
Lots of tiny driver core changes and cleanups happened this cycle, but
the two major things are:
- firmware_loader reorganization and additions including the ability
to have XZ compressed firmware images and the ability for userspace
to initiate the firmware load when it needs to, instead of being
always initiated by the kernel. FPGA devices specifically want this
ability to have their firmware changed over the lifetime of the
system boot, and this allows them to work without having to come up
with yet-another-custom-uapi interface for loading firmware for
them.
- physical location support added to sysfs so that devices that know
this information, can tell userspace where they are located in a
common way. Some ACPI devices already support this today, and more
bus types should support this in the future.
Smaller changes include:
- driver_override api cleanups and fixes
- error path cleanups and fixes
- get_abi script fixes
- deferred probe timeout changes.
It's that last change that I'm the most worried about. It has been
reported to cause boot problems for a number of systems, and I have a
tested patch series that resolves this issue. But I didn't get it
merged into my tree before 5.18-final came out, so it has not gotten
any linux-next testing.
I'll send the fixup patches (there are 2) as a follow-on series to this
pull request.
All have been tested in linux-next for weeks, with no reported issues
other than the above-mentioned boot time-outs"

The devices on platform/amba/fsl-mc/PCI buses could be bound to drivers
with the device DMA managed by kernel drivers or user-space applications.
Unfortunately, multiple devices may be placed in the same IOMMU group
because they cannot be isolated from each other. The DMA on these devices
must either be entirely under kernel control or userspace control, never
a mixture. Otherwise the driver integrity is not guaranteed because they
could access each other through the peer-to-peer accesses which by-pass
the IOMMU protection.
This checks and sets the default DMA mode during driver binding, and
cleanups during driver unbinding. In the default mode, the device DMA is
managed by the device driver which handles DMA operations through the
kernel DMA APIs (see Documentation/core-api/dma-api.rst).
For cases where the devices are assigned for userspace control through the
userspace driver framework(i.e. VFIO), the drivers(for example, vfio_pci/
vfio_platfrom etc.) may set a new flag (driver_managed_dma) to skip this
default setting in the assumption that the drivers know what they are
doing with the device DMA.
Calling iommu_device_use_default_domain() before {of,acpi}_dma_configure
is currently a problem. As things stand, the IOMMU driver ignored the
initial iommu_probe_device() call when the device was added, since at
that point it had no fwspec yet. In this situation,
{of,acpi}_iommu_configure() are retriggering iommu_probe_device() after
the IOMMU driver has seen the firmware data via .of_xlate to learn that
it actually responsible for the given device. As the result, before
that gets fixed, iommu_use_default_domain() goes at the end, and calls
arch_teardown_dma_ops() if it fails.
