Add a new flag that indicates that this control is a dynamically sized
array. Also document this flag.
Currently dynamically sized arrays are limited to one dimensional arrays,
but that might change in the future if there is a need for it.
The initial use-case of dynamic arrays are stateless codecs. A frame
can be divided in many slices, so you want to provide an array containing
slice information for each slice. Typically the number of slices is small,
but the standard allow for hundreds or thousands of slices. Dynamic arrays
are a good solution since sizing the array for the worst case would waste
substantial amounts of memory.

ASoC: Updates for v5.20
This is a big release thus far and there will probably be more changes
to come, it's a combination of a larger than usual crop of new drivers
and some subsysetm wide cleanups from Charles rather than anything
structural. The SOF and Intel DSP code both also continue to be very
actively developed.
- Restructing of the set_fmt() callbacks to be specified in terms of
the device rather than with semantics depending on if the device is
supposed to be a CODEC or SoC, making things clearer in situations
like CODEC to CODEC links.
- Clean up of the way we flag which DAI naming scheme we use to reflect
the progress that's been made modernising things.
- Merge of more of the Intel AVS driver stack, including some board
integrations.
- New version 4 mechanism for communication with SOF DSPs.
- Suppoort for dynamically selecting the PLL to use at runtime on i.MX
platforms.
- Improvements for CODEC to CODEC support in the generic cards.
- Support for AMD Jadeite and various machines, Intel MetorLake DSPs,
Mediatek MT8186 DSPs and MT6366, nVidia Tegra MDDRC, OPE and PEQ, NXP
TFA9890, Qualcomm SDM845, WCD9335 and WAS883x, and Texas Instruments
TAS2780.
The helper functions that test validity of colorspace-related fields
use the last value of the corresponding enums. This isn't very
future-proof, as there's a high chance someone adding a new value may
forget to update the helpers. Add new "LAST" entries to the enumerations
to improve this, and keep them private to the kernel.

This is the driver part of userspace block driver(ublk driver), the other
part is userspace daemon part(ublksrv)[1].
The two parts communicate by io_uring's IORING_OP_URING_CMD with one
shared cmd buffer for storing io command, and the buffer is read only for
ublksrv, each io command is indexed by io request tag directly, and is
written by ublk driver.
For example, when one READ io request is submitted to ublk block driver,
ublk driver stores the io command into cmd buffer first, then completes
one IORING_OP_URING_CMD for notifying ublksrv, and the URING_CMD is issued
to ublk driver beforehand by ublksrv for getting notification of any new
io request, and each URING_CMD is associated with one io request by tag.
After ublksrv gets the io command, it translates and handles the ublk io
request, such as, for the ublk-loop target, ublksrv translates the request
into same request on another file or disk, like the kernel loop block
driver. In ublksrv's implementation, the io is still handled by io_uring,
and share same ring with IORING_OP_URING_CMD command. When the target io
request is done, the same IORING_OP_URING_CMD is issued to ublk driver for
both committing io request result and getting future notification of new
io request.
Another thing done by ublk driver is to copy data between kernel io
request and ublksrv's io buffer:
1) before ubsrv handles WRITE request, copy the request's data into
ublksrv's userspace io buffer, so that ublksrv can handle the write
request
2) after ubsrv handles READ request, copy ublksrv's userspace io buffer
into this READ request, then ublk driver can complete the READ request
Zero copy may be switched if mm is ready to support it.
ublk driver doesn't handle any logic of the specific user space driver,
so it is small/simple enough.

Some of the statistics values exported by KVM are always only 0 or 1.
It can be useful to export this fact to userspace so that it can track
them specially (for example by polling the value every now and then to
compute a % of time spent in a specific state).
Therefore, add "boolean value" as a new "unit". While it is not exactly
a unit, it walks and quacks like one. In particular, using the type
would be wrong because boolean values could be instantaneous or peak
values (e.g. "is the rmap allocated?") or even two-bucket histograms
(e.g. "number of posted vs. non-posted interrupt injections").

Today, the resolution of size axes is not documented. As a result, it's
not clear what the canonical interpretation of this value should be. On
Android, there is a need to calculate the size of the touch ellipse in
physical units (millimeters).
After reviewing linux source, it turned out that most of the existing
usages are already interpreting this value as "units/mm". This
documentation will make it explicit. This will help device
implementations with correctly following the linux specs, and will
ensure that the devices will work on Android without needing further

io_uring: explicit sqe padding for ioctl commands
Extend LoadPin to allow loading of kernel files from trusted dm-verity [1]
devices.
This change adds the concept of trusted verity devices to LoadPin. LoadPin
maintains a list of root digests of verity devices it considers trusted.
Userspace can populate this list through an ioctl on the new LoadPin
securityfs entry 'dm-verity'. The ioctl receives a file descriptor of
a file with verity digests as parameter. Verity reads the digests from
this file after confirming that the file is located on the pinned root.
The digest file must contain one digest per line. The list of trusted
digests can only be set up once, which is typically done at boot time.
When a kernel file is read LoadPin first checks (as usual) whether the file
is located on the pinned root, if so the file can be loaded. Otherwise, if
the verity extension is enabled, LoadPin determines whether the file is
located on a verity backed device and whether the root digest of that
device is in the list of trusted digests. The file can be loaded if the
verity device has a trusted root digest.
Background:
As of now LoadPin restricts loading of kernel files to a single pinned
filesystem, typically the rootfs. This works for many systems, however it
can result in a bloated rootfs (and OTA updates) on platforms where
multiple boards with different hardware configurations use the same rootfs
image. Especially when 'optional' files are large it may be preferable to
download/install them only when they are actually needed by a given board.
Chrome OS uses Downloadable Content (DLC) [2] to deploy certain 'packages'
at runtime. As an example a DLC package could contain firmware for a
peripheral that is not present on all boards. DLCs use dm-verity to verify
the integrity of the DLC content.

Commit 13bbbfbea7 ("bpf: Add bpf_dynptr_read and bpf_dynptr_write")
added the bpf_dynptr_write() and bpf_dynptr_read() APIs.
However, it will be needed for some dynptr types to pass in flags as
well (e.g. when writing to a skb, the user may like to invalidate the
hash or recompute the checksum).
This patch adds a "u64 flags" arg to the bpf_dynptr_read() and
bpf_dynptr_write() APIs before their UAPI signature freezes where
we then cannot change them anymore with a 5.19.x released kernel.
