Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

"Here are a number of USB driver fixes for 5.7-rc3.
Nothing huge, just the usual collection of:

A few of the gadget driver fixes show up twice here as they were

SMB2_open_init() expects a pre-initialised lease_key when opening a
file with a lease, so set pfid->lease_key prior to calling it in
open_shroot().
This issue was observed when performing some DFS failover tests and
the lease key was never randomly generated.

This patch is basically fixing the lookup of tcons (DFS specific) during
reconnect (smb2pdu.c:__smb2_reconnect) to update their prefix paths.
Previously, we relied on the TCP_Server_Info pointer
(misc.c:tcp_super_cb) to determine which tcon to update the prefix path
We could not rely on TCP server pointer to determine which super block
to update the prefix path when reconnecting tcons since it might map
to different tcons that share same TCP connection.
Instead, walk through all cifs super blocks and compare their DFS full
paths with the tcon being updated to.

If there is a lot(more then 16) of virtio-console devices
or virtio_console module is reloaded
- buffers 'vtermnos' and 'cons_ops' are overflowed.
In older kernels it overruns spinlock which leads to kernel freezing:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1786239
To reproduce the issue, you can try simple script that
loads/unloads module. Something like this:
while [ 1 ]
do
modprobe virtio_console
sleep 2
modprobe -r virtio_console
sleep 2
done

Cyril Roelandt reports that his JMicron JMS566 USB-SATA bridge fails
to handle WRITE commands with the FUA bit set, even though it claims
to support FUA. (Oddly enough, a later version of the same bridge,
version 2.03 as opposed to 1.14, doesn't claim to support FUA. Also
oddly, the bridge _does_ support FUA when using the UAS transport
instead of the Bulk-Only transport -- but this device was blacklisted
for uas in commit bc3bdb12bbb3 ("usb-storage: Disable UAS on JMicron
SATA enclosure") for apparently unrelated reasons.)
This patch adds a usb-storage unusual_devs entry with the BROKEN_FUA
flag. This allows the bridge to work properly with usb-storage.

This disables tcon re-use for DFS shares.
tcon->dfs_path stores the path that the tcon should connect to when
doing failing over.
If that tcon is used multiple times e.g. 2 mounts using it with
different prefixpath, each will need a different dfs_path but there is
only one tcon. The other solution would be to split the tcon in 2
tcons during failover but that is much harder.
tcons could not be shared with DFS in cifs.ko because in a
DFS namespace like:
//domain/dfsroot -> /serverA/dfsroot, /serverB/dfsroot
//serverA/dfsroot/link -> /serverA/target1/aa/bb
//serverA/dfsroot/link2 -> /serverA/target1/cc/dd
you can see that link and link2 are two DFS links that both resolve to
the same target share (/serverA/target1), so cifs.ko will only contain a
single tcon for both link and link2.
The problem with that is, if we (auto)mount "link" and "link2", cifs.ko
will only contain a single tcon for both DFS links so we couldn't
perform failover or refresh the DFS cache for both links because
tcon->dfs_path was set to either "link" or "link2", but not both --
which is wrong.

Currently, if tcs_cmd_gen is called with commit=false, then
tcs_cmd::wait is left uninitialized. Since the tcs_cmd structures passed
to this function aren't zero-initialized, then we're left with random
wait values. This results in waiting for completion for more commands
than is necessary, depending on what's on the stack at the time.
Removing the unnecessary if-condition fixes this, but add an explicit
memset of the tcs_cmd structure as well to ensure predictable behavior
if more tcs_cmd members are added in the future.

init_r_port can access pc104 array out of bounds. pc104 is a 2D array
defined to have 4 members. Each member has 8 submembers.
* we can have more than 4 (PCI) boards, i.e. [board] can be OOB
* line is not modulo-ed by anything, so the first line on the second
board can be 4, on the 3rd 12 or alike (depending on previously
registered boards). It's zero only on the first line of the first
board. So even [line] can be OOB, quite soon (with the 2nd registered
board already).
This code is broken for ages, so just avoid the OOB accesses and don't
try to fix it as we would need to find out the correct line number. Use
the default: RS232, if we are out.
Generally, if anyone needs to set the interface types, a module parameter
is past the last thing that should be used for this purpose. The
parameters' description says it's for ISA cards anyway.
