<title>Bluetooth: hci_core: Rework hci_dev_do_reset() to use hci_sync functions</title>

The current HCI reset function in hci_core.c duplicates most of the work
done by hci_dev_close_sync(), and doesn't handle LE, advertising or
discovery.

Instead of porting these to hci_dev_do_reset(), directly call the
close/open functions from hci_sync to reset the hdev. MGMT now notifies
when a user performs a reset.

Some controller firmwares (eg for MT7925) continuously send invalid ISO
packet, which result to "ISO unknown handle" error spam in logs.  It's
not important to show all of them to the user.

Rate limit these ISO error messages, similarly as we do for SCO.

<title>Bluetooth: hci_sync: annotate data-races around hdev-&gt;req_status</title>

__hci_cmd_sync_sk() sets hdev-&gt;req_status under hdev-&gt;req_lock:

    hdev-&gt;req_status = HCI_REQ_PEND;

However, several other functions read or write hdev-&gt;req_status without
holding any lock:

  - hci_send_cmd_sync() reads req_status in hci_cmd_work (workqueue)
  - hci_cmd_sync_complete() reads/writes from HCI event completion
  - hci_cmd_sync_cancel() / hci_cmd_sync_cancel_sync() read/write
  - hci_abort_conn() reads in connection abort path

Since __hci_cmd_sync_sk() runs on hdev-&gt;req_workqueue while
hci_send_cmd_sync() runs on hdev-&gt;workqueue, these are different
workqueues that can execute concurrently on different CPUs. The plain
C accesses constitute a data race.

Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations on all concurrent accesses
to hdev-&gt;req_status to prevent potential compiler optimizations that
could affect correctness (e.g., load fusing in the wait_event
condition or store reordering).

<title>Convert 'alloc_flex' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.

As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<title>Bluetooth: hci_core: lookup hci_conn on RX path on protocol side</title>

<id>79a2d4678ba90bdba577dc3af88cc900d6dcd5ee</id>
<content type='text'>
The hdev lock/lookup/unlock/use pattern in the packet RX path doesn't
ensure hci_conn* is not concurrently modified/deleted. This locking
appears to be leftover from before conn_hash started using RCU
commit bf4c63252490b ("Bluetooth: convert conn hash to RCU")
and not clear if it had purpose since then.

Currently, there are code paths that delete hci_conn* from elsewhere
than the ordered hdev-&gt;workqueue where the RX work runs in. E.g.
commit 5af1f84ed13a ("Bluetooth: hci_sync: Fix UAF on hci_abort_conn_sync")
introduced some of these, and there probably were a few others before
it.  It's better to do the locking so that even if these run
concurrently no UAF is possible.

Move the lookup of hci_conn and associated socket-specific conn to
protocol recv handlers, and do them within a single critical section
to cover hci_conn* usage and lookup.

syzkaller has reported a crash that appears to be this issue:

    [Task hdev-&gt;workqueue]          [Task 2]
                                    hci_disconnect_all_sync

HCI_OP_NOP means no command was actually sent so there is no point in
triggering cmd_timer which may cause a hdev-&gt;reset in the process since
it is assumed that the controller is stuck processing a command.
