PR: qualcomm-linux/kernel #590 — 2 commits: FROMLIST: dt-bindings: iommu: arm,smmu: Document optional interconnects property + FROMLIST: iommu/arm-smmu: Add interconnect bandwidth voting support
Upstream commit: ❌ No Link: tag found in either commit
Verdict: ❌ FAIL

Step 1 — Lore Link Check

Both commits carry the FROMLIST: prefix, which requires a Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/<message-id> tag. Neither commit contains one. Network access is unavailable in this environment, so lore.kernel.org cannot be queried to locate the postings independently.

Commit 1 (51541a78a199): FROMLIST: dt-bindings: iommu: arm,smmu: Document optional interconnects property — no Link tag

Commit 2 (f0764e9f6b25): FROMLIST: iommu/arm-smmu: Add interconnect bandwidth voting support — no Link tag

Because no lore URL is present, Steps 2, 5, 7, 8, 9 (diff comparison against upstream) cannot be performed.

File Status Notes

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iommu/arm,smmu.yaml ⚠️ REVIEW Cannot compare to lore (no Link tag). Content self-consistent: adds interconnects with maxItems: 1 and description.

drivers/iommu/arm/arm-smmu/arm-smmu.c ⚠️ REVIEW Cannot compare to lore. Logic coherent: icc_get/icc_enable/icc_disable helpers added; called in probe, runtime_resume, runtime_suspend. See issue #3 below.

drivers/iommu/arm/arm-smmu/arm-smmu.h ⚠️ REVIEW Cannot compare to lore. Adds #include <linux/interconnect.h> and icc_path field to arm_smmu_device — correct.

Issues
Missing Link: tag — Commit 1 (51541a78a199): FROMLIST: commits must include Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/<message-id>. Without it the patch cannot be traced to its upstream origin and check-patch-compliance CI fails.

Missing Link: tag — Commit 2 (f0764e9f6b25): Same as issue Create qualcomm-linux-organization-repolinter.yml #1.
ICC vote leaked on probe error path — Commit 2: In arm_smmu_device_probe, arm_smmu_icc_enable() is called before arm_smmu_device_cfg_probe(). If arm_smmu_device_cfg_probe() (or any subsequent step) returns an error, the function returns without calling arm_smmu_icc_disable(), leaving the interconnect bandwidth vote active. All error-return paths after arm_smmu_icc_enable() in probe should call arm_smmu_icc_disable() before returning.
 err = arm_smmu_device_cfg_probe(smmu);
-	if (err)
-		return err;
+	if (err) {
+		arm_smmu_icc_disable(smmu);
+		return err;
+	}
(And similarly for any further error returns in the probe function after this point.)
Verdict

Do not merge. Both commits must be amended to add a Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/<message-id> tag pointing to the mailing-list posting before this PR can be validated or merged. Additionally, the ICC vote leak on probe error paths in Commit 2 should be fixed. Recommended actions:

Post (or confirm posting of) both patches to linux-iommu@lists.linux.dev and devicetree@vger.kernel.org.

Obtain the lore message-ID for each patch and amend each commit to add the Link: line.

Fix the missing arm_smmu_icc_disable() call on all error-return paths in arm_smmu_device_probe() after arm_smmu_icc_enable() is called.

Force-push and re-run CI.

##[error]Process completed with exit code 1.
Fix: Add a Link: trailer to each commit pointing to the upstream lore.kernel.org thread. Find the correct lore URL for each patch (e.g. via b4 search or the mailing list archive), then amend both commits:
# For commit 1 (dt-bindings patch):
git rebase -i 6964936c9bfc
# mark 51541a78a199 as 'edit'
git commit --amend
# Add to commit body:

1 blocker to fix before merge: add Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/<message-id> to both FROMLIST: commits (51541a78a199 and f0764e9f6b25). All other checkers pass or are not applicable.

…ts property Some SoC implementations require a bandwidth vote on an interconnect path before the SMMU register space is accessible. Add the optional 'interconnects' property to the binding to allow platform DT nodes to describe this path. The arm-smmu driver uses these properties to vote for bandwidth before accessing any SMMU registers and releases the vote on runtime suspend. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260516-smmu_interconnect_addition-v1-1-f889d933f5c1@oss.qualcomm.com/ Signed-off-by: Bibek Kumar Patro <bibek.patro@oss.qualcomm.com>

On some SoCs the SMMU registers require an active interconnect bandwidth vote to be accessible. While other clients typically satisfy this requirement implicitly, certain corner cases (e.g. during sleep/wakeup transitions) can leave the SMMU without a vote, causing intermittent register access failures. Add support for an optional interconnect path to the arm-smmu driver and vote for bandwidth while the SMMU is active. The path is acquired from DT if present and ignored otherwise. The bandwidth vote is enabled before accessing SMMU registers during probe and runtime resume, and released during runtime suspend and on error paths. Generally, from an architectural perspective, GEM_NOC and DDR are expected to have an active vote whenever the adreno_smmu block is powered on. In most common use cases, this requirement is implicitly satisfied because other GPU-related clients (for example, the GMU device) already hold a GEM_NOC vote when adreno_smmu is enabled. However, there are certain corner cases, such as during sleep/wakeup transitions, where the GEM_NOC vote can be removed before adreno_smmu is powered down. If adreno_smmu is then accessed while the interconnect vote is missing, it can lead to the observed failures. Because of the precise ordering involved, this scenario is difficult to reproduce consistently. (also GDSC is involved in adreno usecases can have an independent vote) Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260516-smmu_interconnect_addition-v1-2-f889d933f5c1@oss.qualcomm.com/ Signed-off-by: Bibek Kumar Patro <bibek.patro@oss.qualcomm.com>
