A regression was reported to me recently whereby /dev/fb0 had disappeared
from a PowerBook G3 Series "Wallstreet". The problem shows up when the
"video=ofonly" parameter is passed to the kernel, which is what the
bootloader does when "no video driver" is selected. The cause of the
problem is the "offb" string comparison, which got mangled when it got
refactored. Fix it.

Add bounds checking to prevent writes past framebuffer boundaries when
rendering text near screen edges. Return early if the Y position is off-screen
and clip image height to screen boundary. Break from the rendering loop if the
X position is off-screen. When clipping image width to fit the screen, update
the character count to match the clipped width to prevent buffer size
mismatches.
Without the character count update, bit_putcs_aligned and bit_putcs_unaligned
receive mismatched parameters where the buffer is allocated for the clipped
width but cnt reflects the original larger count, causing out-of-bounds writes.

Fix integer overflow vulnerabilities in fbcon_do_set_font() where font
size calculations could overflow when handling user-controlled font
parameters.
The vulnerabilities occur when:
1. CALC_FONTSZ(h, pitch, charcount) performs h * pith * charcount
multiplication with user-controlled values that can overflow.
2. FONT_EXTRA_WORDS * sizeof(int) + size addition can also overflow
3. This results in smaller allocations than expected, leading to buffer
overflows during font data copying.
Add explicit overflow checking using check_mul_overflow() and
check_add_overflow() kernel helpers to safety validate all size
calculations before allocation.

fbcon_set_bitops() for unrotated displays.

Depending on rotation settings, fbcon sets different callback
functions in struct fbcon_par from within fbcon_set_bitops(). Declare
the callback functions in the new type struct fbcon_bitops. Then
only replace the single bitops pointer in struct fbcon_par.
Keeping callbacks in constant instances of struct fbcon_bitops
makes it harder to exploit the callbacks. Also makes the code slightly
easier to maintain.
For tile-based consoles, there's a separate instance of the bitops

callbacks will be removed from struct fbcon_ops, rename the data type
to struct fbcon_par. Also rename the variables from ops to par.
The _par postfix ("private access registers") is used throughout the
fbdev subsystem for per-driver state. The fbcon pointer within struct
fb_info is also named fbcon_par. Hence, the new naming fits existing
practice.

fbdev: Fix vmalloc out-of-bounds write in fast_imageblit
This issue triggers when a userspace program does an ioctl
FBIOPUT_CON2FBMAP by passing console number and frame buffer number.
Ideally this maps console to frame buffer and updates the screen if
console is visible.
As part of mapping it has to do resize of console according to frame
buffer info. if this resize fails and returns from vc_do_resize() and
continues further. At this point console and new frame buffer are mapped
and sets display vars. Despite failure still it continue to proceed
updating the screen at later stages where vc_data is related to previous
frame buffer and frame buffer info and display vars are mapped to new
frame buffer and eventully leading to out-of-bounds write in
fast_imageblit(). This bheviour is excepted only when fg_console is
equal to requested console which is a visible console and updates screen
with invalid struct references in fbcon_putcs().

The reason is that fb_info->var is being modified in fb_set_var(), and
then fb_videomode_to_var() is called. If it fails to add the mode to
fb_info->modelist, fb_set_var() returns error, but does not restore the
old value of fb_info->var. Restore fb_info->var on failure the same way
it is done earlier in the function.

Even though fbcon_init() checks beforehand if fb_match_mode() in
var_to_display() fails, it can not prevent the panic because fbcon_init()
does not return error code. Considering this and the comment in the code
about fb_match_mode() returning NULL - "This should not happen" - it is
better to prevent registering the fb_info if its mode was not set
successfully. Also move fb_add_videomode() closer to the beginning of
do_register_framebuffer() to avoid having to do the cleanup on fail.

In fb_find_mode_cvt(), iff mode->refresh somehow happens to be 0x80000000,
cvt.f_refresh will become 0 when multiplying it by 2 due to overflow. It's
then passed to fb_cvt_hperiod(), where it's used as a divider -- division
by 0 will result in kernel oops. Add a sanity check for cvt.f_refresh to
avoid such overflow...

The event FB_EVENT_BLANK sends the new blank state in the event's
data field. Also send the old state. It's an additional field in the
data array; existing receivers won't notice the difference.
The backlight subsystem currently tracks blank state per display per
backlight. That is not optimal as it ties backlight code to fbdev. A
subsystem should not track internal state of another subsystem. With
both, new and old, blank state in FB_EVENT_BLANK, the backlight code
will not require its own state tracker any longer.

Store the display's blank status in struct fb_info.blank and track
it in fb_blank(). As an extra, the status is now available from the
sysfs blank attribute.
Support for blanking is optional. Therefore framebuffer_alloc()
initializes the state to FB_BLANK_UNBLANK (i.e., the display is
on). If the fb_blank callback has been set, register_framebuffer()
sets the state to FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN. On the first modeset, the
call to fb_blank() will update it to _UNBLANK. This is important,
as listeners to FB_EVENT_BLANK will now see the display being
switched on.

Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
reported. In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect.
- The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong
implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then
using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed.
- The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry
Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been
deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from
Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No
runtime effects are anticipated.
- The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations
from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in
the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
- The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code"
from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
noticed when working on the swap code.
- The 2 patch series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible
output.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and
schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
handling of large folios.
- The 3 patch series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless
damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the
accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
- The 3 patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from
Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io
and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is
preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields.
- The 4 patch series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS
filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering
by huge page sizes.
- The 4 patch series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem
mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
file-backed mappings.
- The 4 patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for
pte-mapped large folios.
- The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from
Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
microbenchmark.
- The 5 patch series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation
fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the
DAMON docs.
- The 27 patch series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from
Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed
when using CMA on large machines.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped
pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the
page's mapped/unmapped status.
- The 19 patch series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey
Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression
operations preemptibly.
- The 12 patch series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run
them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which
Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests.
- The 2 patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap"
from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
- The 7 patch series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't
being effective.
- The 5 patch series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
code.
- The 5 patch series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman
Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the
GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic.
- The 8 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from
SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.
- The 5 patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some
issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did
this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
vmalloc.
- The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code
easier to follow.
- The 3 patch series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from
Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase
which we accidentally added late last year.
- The 3 patch series "Add a command line option that enables control of
how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas
Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly
reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
initialization.
- The 3 patch series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages()
for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
balancing code.
- The 9 patch series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters
useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow
and reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the
documention is updated accordingly.
- The 5 patch series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry
Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits
the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.
- The 6 patch series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang
does as it claims.
- The 20 patch series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts"
from Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount
handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case

The original version duplicated more or less the same algorithms for
both system and i/o memory.
In this version the drawing algorithms (copy/fill/blit) are separate
from the memory access (system and i/o). The two parts are getting
combined in the loadable module sources. This also makes it more robust
against wrong memory access type or alignment mistakes as there's no
direct pointer access or arithmetic in the algorithm sources anymore.
Due to liberal use of inlining the compiled result is a single function
in all 6 cases, without unnecessary function calls. Unlike earlier the
use of macros could be minimized as apparently both gcc and clang is
capable now to do the same with inline functions just as well.
What wasn't quite the same in the two variants is the support for pixel
order reversing. This version is capable to do that for both system and
I/O memory, and not only for the latter. As demand for low bits per
pixel modes isn't high there's a configuration option to enable this
separately for the CFB and SYS modules.
The pixel reversing algorithm is different than earlier and was designed
so that it can take advantage of bit order reversing instructions on
architectures which have them. And even for higher bits per pixel modes
like four bpp.
One of the shortcomings of the earlier version was the incomplete
support for foreign endian framebuffers. Now all three drawing
algorithms produce correct output on both endians with native and
foreign framebuffers. This is one of the important differences even if
otherwise the algorithms don't look too different than before.
All three routines work now with aligned native word accesses. As a
consequence blitting isn't limited to 32 bits on 64 bit architectures as
it was before.
The old routines silently assumed that rows are a multiple of the word
size. Due to how the new routines function this isn't a requirement any
more and access will be done aligned regardless. However if the
framebuffer is configured like that then some of the fast paths won't be
available.
As this code is supposed to be running on all supported architectures it
wasn't optimized for a particular one. That doesn't mean I haven't
looked at the disassembly. That's where I noticed that it isn't a good
idea to use the fallback bitreversing code for example.
The low bits per pixel modes should be faster than before as the new
routines can blit 4 pixels at a time.
On the higher bits per pixel modes I retained the specialized aligned
routines so it should be more or less the same, except on 64 bit
architectures. There the blitting word size is double now which means 32
BPP isn't done a single pixel a time now.
The code was tested on x86, amd64, mips32 and mips64. The latter two in
big endian configuration. Originally thought I can get away with the
first two, but with such bit twisting code byte ordering is tricky and
not really possible to get right without actually verifying it.
While writing such routines isn't rocket science a lot of time was spent
on making sure that pixel ordering, foreign byte order, various bits per
pixels, cpu endianness and word size will give the expected result in
all sorts of combinations without making it overly complicated or full
with special cases.

The erase colour calculation for fbcon clearing should use get_color instead
of attr_col_ec, like everything else. The latter is similar but is not correct.
For example it's missing the depth dependent remapping and doesn't care about
blanking.
The problem can be reproduced by setting up the background colour to grey
(vt.color=0x70) and having an fbcon console set to 2bpp (4 shades of gray).
Now the background attribute should be 1 (dark gray) on the console.
If the screen is scrolled when pressing enter in a shell prompt at the bottom
line then the new line is cleared using colour 7 instead of 1. That's not
something fillrect likes (at 2bbp it expect 0-3) so the result is interesting.
This patch switches to get_color with vc_video_erase_char to determine the
erase colour from attr_col_ec. That makes the latter function redundant as
no other users were left.
Use correct erase colour for clearing in fbcon

I was wondering why there's garbage at the bottom of the screen when
tile blitting is used with an odd mode like 1080, 600 or 200. Sure there's
only space for half a tile but the same area is clean when the buffer
is bitmap.
Then later I found that it's supposed to be cleaned but that's not
implemented. So I took what's in bitblit and adapted it for tileblit.
This implementation was tested for both the horizontal and vertical case,
and now does the same as what's done for bitmap buffers.
If anyone is interested to reproduce the problem then I could bet that'd
be on a S3 or Ark. Just set up a mode with an odd line count and make
sure that the virtual size covers the complete tile at the bottom. E.g.
for 600 lines that's 608 virtual lines for a 16 tall tile. Then the
bottom area should be cleaned.
For the right side it's more difficult as there the drivers won't let an
odd size happen, unless the code is modified. But once it reports back a
few pixel columns short then fbcon won't use the last column. With the
patch that column is now clean.
Btw. the virtual size should be rounded up by the driver for both axes
(not only the horizontal) so that it's dividable by the tile size.
That's a driver bug but correcting it is not in scope for this patch.

With the introduction of mapping_wrprotect_range() there is no need to use
folio_mkclean() in order to write-protect mappings of frame buffer pages,
and therefore no need to inappropriately set kernel-allocated page->index,
mapping fields to permit this operation.
Instead, store the pointer to the page cache object for the mapped driver
in the fb_deferred_io object, and use the already stored page offset from
the pageref object to look up mappings in order to write-protect them.
This is justified, as for the page objects to store a mapping pointer at
the point of assignment of pages, they must all reference the same
underlying address_space object. Since the life time of the pagerefs is
also the lifetime of the fb_deferred_io object, storing the pointer here
makes sense.
This eliminates the need for all of the logic around setting and
maintaining page->index,mapping which we remove.
This eliminates the use of folio_mkclean() entirely but otherwise should
have no functional change.
