Pull driver core updates from Danilo Krummrich:
"debugfs:
- Fix NULL pointer dereference in debugfs_create_str()
- Fix misplaced EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for debugfs_create_str()
- Fix soundwire debugfs NULL pointer dereference from uninitialized
firmware_file
device property:
- Make fwnode flags modifications thread safe; widen the field to
unsigned long and use set_bit() / clear_bit() based accessors
- Document how to check for the property presence
devres:
- Separate struct devres_node from its "subclasses" (struct devres,
struct devres_group); give struct devres_node its own release and
free callbacks for per-type dispatch
- Introduce struct devres_action for devres actions, avoiding the
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN alignment overhead of struct devres
- Export struct devres_node and its init/add/remove/dbginfo
primitives for use by Rust Devres<T>
- Fix missing node debug info in devm_krealloc()
- Use guard(spinlock_irqsave) where applicable; consolidate unlock
paths in devres_release_group()
driver_override:
- Convert PCI, WMI, vdpa, s390/cio, s390/ap, and fsl-mc to the
generic driver_override infrastructure, replacing per-bus
driver_override strings, sysfs attributes, and match logic; fixes a
potential UAF from unsynchronized access to driver_override in bus
match() callbacks
- Simplify __device_set_driver_override() logic
kernfs:
- Send IN_DELETE_SELF and IN_IGNORED inotify events on kernfs file
and directory removal
- Add corresponding selftests for memcg
platform:
- Allow attaching software nodes when creating platform devices via a
new 'swnode' field in struct platform_device_info
- Add kerneldoc for struct platform_device_info
software node:
- Move software node initialization from postcore_initcall() to
driver_init(), making it available early in the boot process
- Move kernel_kobj initialization (ksysfs_init) earlier to support
the above
- Remove software_node_exit(); dead code in a built-in unit
SoC:
- Introduce of_machine_read_compatible() and of_machine_read_model()
OF helpers and export soc_attr_read_machine() to replace direct
accesses to of_root from SoC drivers; also enables
CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST coverage for these drivers
sysfs:
- Constify attribute group array pointers to
'const struct attribute_group *const *' in sysfs functions,
device_add_groups() / device_remove_groups(), and struct class
Rust:
- Devres:
- Embed struct devres_node directly in Devres<T> instead of going
through devm_add_action(), avoiding the extra allocation and the
unnecessary ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN alignment
- I/O:
- Turn IoCapable from a marker trait into a functional trait
carrying the raw I/O accessor implementation (io_read /
io_write), providing working defaults for the per-type Io
methods
- Add RelaxedMmio wrapper type, making relaxed accessors usable in
code generic over the Io trait
- Remove overloaded per-type Io methods and per-backend macros
from Mmio and PCI ConfigSpace
- I/O (Register):
- Add IoLoc trait and generic read/write/update methods to the Io
trait, making I/O operations parameterizable by typed locations
- Add register! macro for defining hardware register types with
typed bitfield accessors backed by Bounded values; supports
direct, relative, and array register addressing
- Add write_reg() / try_write_reg() and LocatedRegister trait
- Update PCI sample driver to demonstrate the register! macro
Example:
```
register! {
/// UART control register.
CTRL(u32) @ 0x18 {
/// Receiver enable.
19:19 rx_enable => bool;
/// Parity configuration.
14:13 parity ?=> Parity;
}
/// FIFO watermark and counter register.
WATER(u32) @ 0x2c {
/// Number of datawords in the receive FIFO.
26:24 rx_count;
/// RX interrupt threshold.
17:16 rx_water;
}
}
impl WATER {
fn rx_above_watermark(&self) -> bool {
self.rx_count() > self.rx_water()
}
}
fn init(bar: &pci::Bar<BAR0_SIZE>) {
let water = WATER::zeroed()
.with_const_rx_water::<1>(); // > 3 would not compile
bar.write_reg(water);
let ctrl = CTRL::zeroed()
.with_parity(Parity::Even)
.with_rx_enable(true);
bar.write_reg(ctrl);
}
fn handle_rx(bar: &pci::Bar<BAR0_SIZE>) {
if bar.read(WATER).rx_above_watermark() {
// drain the FIFO
}
}
fn set_parity(bar: &pci::Bar<BAR0_SIZE>, parity: Parity) {
bar.update(CTRL, |r| r.with_parity(parity));
}
```
- IRQ:
- Move 'static bounds from where clauses to trait declarations for
IRQ handler traits
- Misc:
- Enable the generic_arg_infer Rust feature
- Extend Bounded with shift operations, single-bit bool
conversion, and const get()
Misc:
- Make deferred_probe_timeout default a Kconfig option
- Drop auxiliary_dev_pm_ops; the PM core falls back to driver PM
callbacks when no bus type PM ops are set
- Add conditional guard support for device_lock()
- Add ksysfs.c to the DRIVER CORE MAINTAINERS entry
- Fix kernel-doc warnings in base.h
- Fix stale reference to memory_block_add_nid() in documentation"

kernfs has historically used const void * to pass around namespace tags
used for directory-level namespace filtering. The only current user of
this is sysfs network namespace tagging where struct net pointers are
cast to void *.
Replace all const void * namespace parameters with const struct
ns_common * throughout the kernfs, sysfs, and kobject namespace layers.
This includes the kobj_ns_type_operations callbacks, kobject_namespace(),
and all sysfs/kernfs APIs that accept or return namespace tags.
Passing struct ns_common is needed because various codepaths require
access to the underlying namespace. A struct ns_common can always be
converted back to the concrete namespace type (e.g., struct net) via
container_of() or to_ns_common() in the reverse direction.
This is a preparatory change for switching to ns_id-based directory
iteration to prevent a KASLR pointer leak through the current use of
raw namespace pointers as hash seeds and comparison keys.

There are several for_each APIs which has parameter with type below:
int (*fn)(struct device *dev, void *data)
They iterate over various device lists and call @fn() for each device
with caller provided data @*data, and they usually need to modify @*data.
Give the type an dedicated typedef with advantages shown below:
typedef int (*device_iter_t)(struct device *dev, void *data)
- Shorter API declarations and definitions
- Prevent further for_each APIs from using bad parameter type
So introduce device_iter_t and apply it to various existing APIs below:
bus_for_each_dev()
(class|driver)_for_each_device()
device_for_each_child(_reverse|_reverse_from)().

There are several drivers/base APIs for finding a specific device, and
they currently use the following good type for the @match parameter:
int (*match)(struct device *dev, const void *data)
Since these operations do not modify the caller-provided @*data, this
type is worthy of a dedicated typedef:
typedef int (*device_match_t)(struct device *dev, const void *data)
Advantages of using device_match_t:
- Shorter API declarations and definitions
- Prevent further APIs from using a bad type for @match
So introduce device_match_t and apply it to the existing
(bus|class|driver|auxiliary)_find_device() APIs.

The struct class callback, class_release(), is only called in 2 places,
the pcmcia cardservices code, and in the class driver core code. Both
places it is safe to mark the structure as a const *, to allow us to
in the future mark all struct class usages as constant and move into
read-only memory.

Some classes (i.e. gpio), want to know if they have been registered or
not, and poke around in the class's internal structures to try to figure
this out. Because this is not really a good idea, provide a function
for classes to call to try to figure this out.
Note, this is racy as the state of the class could change at any moment
in time after the call is made, but as usually a class only wants to
know if it has been registered yet or not, it should be fairly safe to
use, and is just as safe as the previous "poke at the class internals"
check was.
Move the gpiolib code to use this function as proof that it works
properly.

In commit 37e98d9bed ("driver core: bus: move lock_class_key into
dynamic structure"), we moved the lock_class_key into the internal
structure shared by busses and classes, but only used it for buses.
Move the class code to use this structure as it is already present and
being allocated, instead of the statically allocated on-the-stack
variable that class_create() was using as part of a macro wrapper around
the core function call.

There's no need to manually have to set the module owner of a class, the
compiler should do it automatically for you, so add a module * to the
__class_register() function and allow it to set the module owner
automatically.
This will let us move the module pointer out of struct class eventually,
as it should not be embedded in there if we wish for it to be a
read-only structure eventually.
And, funny story, this module pointer isn't even being used for
anything, so while we will keep it around for now, it's not like it even
matters.

The callbacks in struct class namespace() and get_ownership() do not
modify the struct device passed to them, so mark the pointer as constant
and fix up all callbacks in the kernel to have the correct function
signature.
This helps make it more obvious what calls and callbacks do, and do not,
modify structures passed to them.
