      platform/surface: aggregator: Add trace points · 0d21bb85
      Maximilian Luz authored
      Add trace points to the Surface Aggregator subsystem core. These trace
      points can be used to track packets, requests, and allocations. They are
      further intended for debugging and testing/validation, specifically in
      combination with the error injection capabilities introduced in the
      subsequent commit.

      platform/surface: aggregator: Add event item allocation caching · 3a7081f6
      Maximilian Luz authored
      Event items are used for completing Surface Aggregator EC events, i.e.
      placing event command data and payload on a workqueue for later
      processing to avoid doing said processing directly on the receiver
      thread. This means that event items are allocated for each incoming
      event, regardless of that event being transmitted via sequenced or
      unsequenced packets.
      
      On the Surface Book 3 and Surface Laptop 3, touchpad HID input events
      (unsequenced), can constitute a larger amount of traffic, and therefore
      allocation of event items. This warrants caching event items to reduce
      memory fragmentation. The size of the cached objects is specifically
      tuned to accommodate keyboard and touchpad input events and their
      payloads on those devices. As a result, this effectively also covers
      most other event types. In case of a larger event payload, event item
      allocation will fall back to kzalloc().

      platform/surface: aggregator: Add control packet allocation caching · 44b84ee7
      Maximilian Luz authored
      Surface Serial Hub communication is, in its core, packet based. Each
      sequenced packet requires to be acknowledged, via an ACK-type control
      packet. In case invalid data has been received by the driver, a NAK-type
      (not-acknowledge/negative acknowledge) control packet is sent,
      triggering retransmission.
      
      Control packets are therefore a core communication primitive and used
      frequently enough (with every sequenced packet transmission sent by the
      embedded controller, including events and request responses) that it may
      warrant caching their allocations to reduce possible memory
      fragmentation.

      platform/surface: Add Surface Aggregator subsystem · c167b9c7
      Maximilian Luz authored
      Add Surface System Aggregator Module core and Surface Serial Hub driver,
      required for the embedded controller found on Microsoft Surface devices.
      
      The Surface System Aggregator Module (SSAM, SAM or Surface Aggregator)
      is an embedded controller (EC) found on 4th and later generation
      Microsoft Surface devices, with the exception of the Surface Go series.
      This EC provides various functionality, depending on the device in
      question. This can include battery status and thermal reporting (5th and
      later generations), but also HID keyboard (6th+) and touchpad input
      (7th+) on Surface Laptop and Surface Book 3 series devices.
      
      This patch provides the basic necessities for communication with the SAM
      EC on 5th and later generation devices. On these devices, the EC
      provides an interface that acts as serial device, called the Surface
      Serial Hub (SSH). 4th generation devices, on which the EC interface is
      provided via an HID-over-I2C device, are not supported by this patch.
      
      Specifically, this patch adds a driver for the SSH device (device HID
      MSHW0084 in ACPI), as well as a controller structure and associated API.
      This represents the functional core of the Surface Aggregator kernel
      subsystem, introduced with this patch, and will be expanded upon in
      subsequent commits.
      
      The SSH driver acts as the main attachment point for this subsystem and
      sets-up and manages the controller structure. The controller in turn
      provides a basic communication interface, allowing to send requests from
      host to EC and receiving the corresponding responses, as well as
      managing and receiving events, sent from EC to host. It is structured
      into multiple layers, with the top layer presenting the API used by
      other kernel drivers and the lower layers modeled after the serial
      protocol used for communication.
      
      Said other drivers are then responsible for providing the (Surface model
      specific) functionality accessible through the EC (e.g. battery status
      reporting, thermal information, ...) via said controller structure and
      API, and will be added in future commits.

      drm/amd/display: avoid uninitialized variable warning · 61d79136
      Linus Torvalds authored
      clang (quite rightly) complains fairly loudly about the newly added
      mpc1_get_mpc_out_mux() function returning an uninitialized value if the
      'opp_id' checks don't pass.
      
      This may not happen in practice, but the code really shouldn't return
      garbage if the sanity checks don't pass.
      
      So just initialize 'val' to zero to avoid the issue.

      genirq: Fix export of irq_to_desc() for powerpc KVM · 11cc92eb
      Michael Ellerman authored
      Commit 64a1b95b ("genirq: Restrict export of irq_to_desc()") removed
      the export of irq_to_desc() unless powerpc KVM is being built, because
      there is still a use of irq_to_desc() in modular code there.
      
      However it used:
      
        #ifdef CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV
      
      Which doesn't work when that symbol is =m, leading to a build failure:
      
        ERROR: modpost: "irq_to_desc" [arch/powerpc/kvm/kvm-hv.ko] undefined!
      
      Fix it by checking for the definedness of the correct symbol which is
      CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV_MODULE.
