Merge tag 'for-7.1/block-20260411' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:

- Add shared memory zero-copy I/O support for ublk, bypassing per-I/O
copies between kernel and userspace by matching registered buffer
PFNs at I/O time. Includes selftests.

- Refactor bio integrity to support filesystem initiated integrity
operations and arbitrary buffer alignment.

- Clean up bio allocation, splitting bio_alloc_bioset() into clear fast
and slow paths. Add bio_await() and bio_submit_or_kill() helpers,
unify synchronous bi_end_io callbacks.

- Fix zone write plug refcount handling and plug removal races. Add
support for serializing zone writes at QD=1 for rotational zoned
devices, yielding significant throughput improvements.

- Add SED-OPAL ioctls for Single User Mode management and a STACK_RESET
command.

- Add io_uring passthrough (uring_cmd) support to the BSG layer.

- Replace pp_buf in partition scanning with struct seq_buf.

- zloop improvements and cleanups.

- drbd genl cleanup, switching to pre_doit/post_doit.

- NVMe pull request via Keith:
- Fabrics authentication updates
- Enhanced block queue limits support
- Workqueue usage updates
- A new write zeroes device quirk
- Tagset cleanup fix for loop device

- MD pull requests via Yu Kuai:
- Fix raid5 soft lockup in retry_aligned_read()
- Fix raid10 deadlock with check operation and nowait requests
- Fix raid1 overlapping writes on writemostly disks
- Fix sysfs deadlock on array_state=clear
- Proactive RAID-5 parity building with llbitmap, with
write_zeroes_unmap optimization for initial sync
- Fix llbitmap barrier ordering, rdev skipping, and bitmap_ops
version mismatch fallback
- Fix bcache use-after-free and uninitialized closure
- Validate raid5 journal metadata payload size

selftests/ublk: add UBLK_F_SHMEM_ZC support for loop target

Add loop_queue_shmem_zc_io() which handles I/O requests marked with
UBLK_IO_F_SHMEM_ZC. When the kernel sets this flag, the request data
lives in a registered shared memory buffer — decode index + offset
from iod->addr and use the server's mmap as the I/O buffer.

The dispatch check in loop_queue_tgt_rw_io() routes SHMEM_ZC requests
to this new function, bypassing the normal buffer registration path.

Merge tag 'for-7.0/block-20260206' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:

- Support for batch request processing for ublk, improving the
efficiency of the kernel/ublk server communication. This can yield
nice 7-12% performance improvements

- Support for integrity data for ublk

- Various other ublk improvements and additions, including a ton of
selftests additions and updated

- Move the handling of blk-crypto software fallback from below the
block layer to above it. This reduces the complexity of dealing with
bio splitting

- Series fixing a number of potential deadlocks in blk-mq related to
the queue usage counter and writeback throttling and rq-qos debugfs
handling

- Add an async_depth queue attribute, to resolve a performance
regression that's been around for a qhilw related to the scheduler
depth handling

- Only use task_work for IOPOLL completions on NVMe, if it is necessary
to do so. An earlier fix for an issue resulted in all these
completions being punted to task_work, to guarantee that completions
were only run for a given io_uring ring when it was local to that
ring. With the new changes, we can detect if it's necessary to use
task_work or not, and avoid it if possible.

- rnbd fixes:
- Fix refcount underflow in device unmap path
- Handle PREFLUSH and NOUNMAP flags properly in protocol
- Fix server-side bi_size for special IOs
- Zero response buffer before use
- Fix trace format for flags
- Add .release to rnbd_dev_ktype

- MD pull requests via Yu Kuai
- Fix raid5_run() to return error when log_init() fails
- Fix IO hang with degraded array with llbitmap
- Fix percpu_ref not resurrected on suspend timeout in llbitmap
- Fix GPF in write_page caused by resize race
- Fix NULL pointer dereference in process_metadata_update
- Fix hang when stopping arrays with metadata through dm-raid
- Fix any_working flag handling in raid10_sync_request
- Refactor sync/recovery code path, improve error handling for
badblocks, and remove unused recovery_disabled field
- Consolidate mddev boolean fields into mddev_flags
- Use mempool to allocate stripe_request_ctx and make sure
max_sectors is not less than io_opt in raid5
- Fix return value of mddev_trylock
- Fix memory leak in raid1_run()
- Add Li Nan as mdraid reviewer

- Move phys_vec definitions to the kernel types, mostly in preparation
for some VFIO and RDMA changes

- Improve the speed for secure erase for some devices

- Various little rust updates

spi: Octal DTR support

This series adds support for 8D-8D-8D in SPI NAND, which can already be
leveraged without any SPI changes as controllers already have this
support for some SPI NOR devices.

Among the few spi-mem patches, they are needed for building the SPI NAND
changes (especially the ODTR introduction at the end) and therefore an
immutable tag will be needed for merging in the MTD tree (unless all the
series goes through MTD directly ofc).

selftests: ublk: add integrity data support to loop target

To perform and end-to-end test of integrity information through a ublk
device, we need to actually store it somewhere and retrieve it. Add this
support to kublk's loop target. It uses a second backing file for the
integrity data corresponding to the data stored in the first file.
The integrity file is initialized with byte 0xFF, which ensures the app
and reference tags are set to the "escape" pattern to disable the
bio-integrity-auto guard and reftag checks until the blocks are written.
The integrity file is opened without O_DIRECT since it will be accessed
at sub-block granularity. Each incoming read/write results in a pair of
reads/writes, one to the data file, and one to the integrity file. If
either backing I/O fails, the error is propagated to the ublk request.
If both backing I/Os read/write some bytes, the ublk request is
completed with the smaller of the number of blocks accessed by each I/O.

selftests: ublk: support non-O_DIRECT backing files

A subsequent commit will add support for using a backing file to store
integrity data. Since integrity data is accessed in intervals of
metadata_size, which may be much smaller than a logical block on the
backing device, direct I/O cannot be used. Add an argument to
backing_file_tgt_init() to specify the number of files to open for
direct I/O. The remaining files will use buffered I/O. For now, continue
to request direct I/O for all the files.

regulator: core: allow regulator_register() with

Merge series from André Draszik <andre.draszik@linaro.org>:

With these attached patches it becomes possible again to support
hardware designs with multiple PMICs where individual rails of each act
as required supplies for rails of the other (due to the latter being
e.g. always-on), and vice-versa.

Google Pixel 6 and 6 Pro (oriole and raven) are examples of such
designs.

Rather than returning -EPORBE_DEFER in regulator_register() when
set_machine_constraints() fails with -EPROBE_DEFER (due to missing
required supplies), we still allow rail registration and try to
reresolve supplies each time a new rail gets registered.

This is implemented using a bus (regulator bus), which allows the core
to reresolve supplies for regulators that still need them whenever new
regulators (i.e. devices) are added.

Using a bus also solves existing problems around late resolution of
supplies as mentioned in the commit message introducing that bus.

The series starts with a few bug fixes and the last two commits
implement the changes mentioned above, but do depend on the bug fixes.
