When conf_read_simple() is called with S_DEF_AUTO, it is meant to read
previous symbol values from include/config/auto.conf to determine which
include/config/* files should be touched.
This process should not modify the current symbol status in any way.
However, conf_touch_deps() currently invalidates all symbol values and
recalculates them, which is totally unneeded.

Commit 8c4555ccc5 ("scripts: add `generate_rust_analyzer.py`")
specified OBJTREE for the bindings crate, and `source.include_dirs` for
the kernel crate, likely in an attempt to support out-of-source builds
for those crates where the generated files reside in `objtree` rather
than `srctree`. This was insufficient because both bits of configuration
are required for each crate; the result is that rust-analyzer is unable
to resolve generated files for either crate in an out-of-source build.
[ Originally we were not using `OBJTREE` in the `kernel` crate, but
we did pass the variable anyway, so conceptually it could have been
there since then.
Regarding `include_dirs`, it started in `kernel` before being in
mainline because we included the bindings directly there (i.e.
there was no `bindings` crate). However, when that crate got
created, we moved the `OBJTREE` there but not the `include_dirs`.
Nowadays, though, we happen to need the `include_dirs` also in
the `kernel` crate for `generated_arch_static_branch_asm.rs` which
was not there back then -- Tamir confirms it is indeed required
for that reason. - Miguel ]

Add a "template" crc-clmul-template.h that can generate RISC-V Zbc
optimized CRC functions. Each generated CRC function is parameterized
by CRC length and bit order, and it accepts a pointer to the constants
struct required for the specific CRC polynomial desired. Update
gen-crc-consts.py to support generating the needed constants structs.
This makes it possible to easily wire up a Zbc optimized implementation
of almost any CRC.
The design generally follows what I did for x86, but it is simplified by
using RISC-V's scalar carryless multiplication Zbc, which has no
equivalent on x86. RISC-V's clmulr instruction is also helpful. A
potential switch to Zvbc (or support for Zvbc alongside Zbc) is left for
future work. For long messages Zvbc should be fastest, but it would
need to be shown to be worthwhile over just using Zbc which is
significantly more convenient to use, especially in the kernel context.
Compared to the existing Zbc-optimized CRC32 code and the earlier
proposed Zbc-optimized CRC-T10DIF code
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250211071101.181652-1-zhihang.shao.iscas@gmail.com),
this submission deduplicates the code among CRC variants and is
significantly more optimized. It uses "folding" to take better
advantage of instruction-level parallelism (to a more limited extent
than x86 for now, but it could be extended to more), it reworks the
Barrett reduction to eliminate unnecessary instructions, and it
documents all the math used and makes all the constants reproducible.

ARM 64 uses -fpatchable-function-entry=4,2 which adds padding before the
function and the addresses in the mcount_loc point there instead of the
function entry that is returned by nm. In order to find a function from nm
to make sure it's not an unused weak function, the entries in the
mcount_loc section needs to match the entries from nm. Since it can be an
instruction before the entry, add a before_func variable that ARM 64 can
set to 8, and if the mcount_loc entry is within 8 bytes of the nm function
entry, then it will be considered a match.

When ARM 64 is compiled with gcc, the mcount_loc section will be filled
with zeros and the addresses will be located in the Elf_Rela sections. To
sort the mcount_loc section, the addresses from the Elf_Rela need to be
placed into an array and that is sorted.
But when ARM 64 is compiled with clang, it does it the same way as other
architectures and leaves the addresses as is in the mcount_loc section.
To handle both cases, ARM 64 will first try to sort the Elf_Rela section,
and if it doesn't find any functions, it will then fall back to the
sorting of the addresses in the mcount_loc section itself.

When a function is annotated as "weak" and is overridden, the code is not
removed. If it is traced, the fentry/mcount location in the weak function
will be referenced by the "__mcount_loc" section. This will then be added
to the available_filter_functions list. Since only the address of the
functions are listed, to find the name to show, a search of kallsyms is
used.
Since kallsyms will return the function by simply finding the function
that the address is after but before the next function, an address of a
weak function will show up as the function before it. This is because
kallsyms does not save names of weak functions. This has caused issues in
the past, as now the traced weak function will be listed in
available_filter_functions with the name of the function before it.
At best, this will cause the previous function's name to be listed twice.
At worse, if the previous function was marked notrace, it will now show up
as a function that can be traced. Note that it only shows up that it can
be traced but will not be if enabled, which causes confusion.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220412094923.0abe90955e5db486b7bca279@kernel.org/
The commit b39181f7c6 ("ftrace: Add FTRACE_MCOUNT_MAX_OFFSET to avoid
adding weak function") was a workaround to this by checking the function
address before printing its name. If the address was too far from the
function given by the name then instead of printing the name it would
print: __ftrace_invalid_address___<invalid-offset>
The real issue is that these invalid addresses are listed in the ftrace
table look up which available_filter_functions is derived from. A place
holder must be listed in that file because set_ftrace_filter may take a
series of indexes into that file instead of names to be able to do O(1)
lookups to enable filtering (many tools use this method).
Even if kallsyms saved the size of the function, it does not remove the
need of having these place holders. The real solution is to not add a weak
function into the ftrace table in the first place.
To solve this, the sorttable.c code that sorts the mcount regions during
the build is modified to take a "nm -S vmlinux" input, sort it, and any
function listed in the mcount_loc section that is not within a boundary of
the function list given by nm is considered a weak function and is zeroed
out.
Note, this does not mean they will remain zero when booting as KASLR
will still shift those addresses. To handle this, the entries in the
mcount_loc section will be ignored if they are zero or match the
kaslr_offset() value.

The sorting of the mcount_loc section is done directly to the section for
x86 and arm32 but it uses a separate array for arm64 as arm64 has the
values for the mcount_loc stored in the rela sections of the vmlinux ELF
file.
In order to use the same code to remove weak functions, always use a
separate array to do the sorting. This requires splitting up the filling
of the array into one function and the placing the contents of the array
back into the rela sections or into the mcount_loc section into a separate
file.

The mcount_loc sorting for when the values are stored in the Elf_Rela
entries uses the compare_extable() function to do the compares in the
qsort(). That function does handle byte swapping if the machine being
compiled for is a different endian than the host machine. But the
sort_relocs() function sorts an array that pulled in the values from the
Elf_Rela section and has already done the swapping.
Create two new compare functions that will sort the direct values. One
will sort 32 bit values and the other will sort the 64 bit value. One of
these will be assigned to a compare_values function pointer and that will
be used for sorting the Elf_Rela mcount values.

The mcount_loc section holds the addresses of the functions that get
patched by ftrace when enabling function callbacks. It can contain tens of
thousands of entries. These addresses must be sorted. If they are not
sorted at compile time, they are sorted at boot. Sorting at boot does take
some time and does have a small impact on boot performance.
x86 and arm32 have the addresses in the mcount_loc section of the ELF
file. But for arm64, the section just contains zeros. The .rela.dyn
Elf_Rela section holds the addresses and they get patched at boot during
the relocation phase.
In order to sort these addresses, the Elf_Rela needs to be updated instead
of the location in the binary that holds the mcount_loc section. Have the
sorttable code, allocate an array to hold the functions, load the
addresses from the Elf_Rela entries, sort them, then put them back in
order into the Elf_rela entries so that they will be sorted at boot up
without having to sort them during boot up.

Stack protector support on 64-bit currently requires that the percpu
section is linked at absolute address 0, because older compilers fixed
the location of the canary value relative to the GS segment base.
GCC 8.1 introduced options to change where the canary value is located,
allowing it to be configured as a standard per-CPU variable. This has
already been done for 32-bit. Doing the same for 64-bit will enable
removing the code needed to support zero-based percpu.

Since commit 5f73e7d038 ("kbuild: refactor cross-compiling
linux-headers package"), the linux-headers Debian package fails to
build when $(CC) cannot build userspace applications, for example,
when using toolchains installed by the 0day bot.
The host programs in the linux-headers package should be rebuilt using
the disto's cross-compiler, ${DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE}-gcc instead of $(CC).
Hence, the variable 'CC' must be expanded in this shell script instead
of in the top-level Makefile.
Commit f354fc88a7 ("kbuild: install-extmod-build: add missing
quotation marks for CC variable") was not a correct fix because
CC="ccache gcc" should be unrelated when rebuilding userspace tools.

Kernel-doc has an obscure logic that uses an external file
to map files via a .tmp_filelist.txt file stored at the current

as it was added on Kernel v2.4.5.5, with the following description:
# 26/05/2001 - Support for separate source and object trees.
# Return error code.

Support for separate source and object trees is now done on a different

There's no logic to create such file, so it sounds to me that this is
just dead code.

The undefined logic is complex and has lots of magic on it.
Implement it, using the same algorithm we have at get_abi.pl. Yet,
some tweaks to optimize performance and to make the code simpler
were added here:
- at the perl version, the tree graph had loops, so we had to
use BFS to traverse it. On this version, the graph is a tree,
so, it simplifies the what group for sysfs aliases;
- the logic which splits regular expressions into subgroups
was re-written to make it faster;
- it may optionally use multiple processes to search for symbol
matches;
- it has some additional debug levels.

Now that all ABI files are handled together, we can add a feature
at automarkup for it to generate cross-references for ABI symbols.
The cross-reference logic can produce references for all existing
files, except for README (as this is not parsed).
For symbols, they need to be an exact match of what it is
described at the docs, which is not always true due to wildcards.
If symbols at /sys /proc and /config are identical, a cross-reference
will be used.

The get_abi.pl script is requiring some care, but it seems that
the number of changes on it since when I originally wrote it
was not too high.
Maintaining perl scripts without using classes requires a higher
efforted than on python, due to global variables management.
Also, it sounds easier to find python developer those days than
perl ones.
As a plus, using a Python class to handle ABI allows a better
integration with Sphinx extensions, allowing, for instance,
to let automarkup to generate cross-references for ABI
symbols.
With that in mind, rewrite the core of get_abi.pl in Python,
using classes, to help producing documentation. This will
allow a better integration in the future with the Sphinx
ABI extension.
The algorithms used there are the same as the ones in Perl,
with a couple of cleanups to remove redundant variables and
to help with cross-reference generation. While doing that,
remove some code that were important in the past, where
ABI files weren't using ReST format.
Some minor improvements were added like using a fixed seed
when generating ABI keys for duplicated names, making its
results reproductible.
The end script is a little bit faster than the original one
(tested on a machine with ssd disks). That's probably because
we're now using only pre-compiled regular expressions, and it
is using string replacement methods instead of regex where
possible.
The new version is a little bit more conservative when
converting text to cross-references to avoid adding them into
literal blocks.
To ensure that the ReST output is parsing all variables
and files properly, the end result was compared using diff
with the one produced by the perl script and showed no regressions.
There are minor improvements at the results, as it now
properly groups What on some special cases. It also better
escape some XREF names.

Add a Python script that generates constants for computing the given CRC
variant(s) using x86's pclmulqdq or vpclmulqdq instructions.
This is specifically tuned for x86's crc-pclmul-template.S. However,
other architectures with a 64x64 => 128-bit carryless multiplication
instruction should be able to use the generated constants too. (Some
tweaks may be warranted based on the exact instructions available on
each arch, so the script may grow an arch argument in the future.)
The script also supports generating the tables needed for table-based
CRC computation. Thus, it can also be used to reproduce the tables like
t10_dif_crc_table[] and crc16_table[] that are currently hardcoded in
the source with no generation script explicitly documented.
Python is used rather than C since it enables implementing the CRC math
in the simplest way possible, using arbitrary precision integers. The
outputs of this script are intended to be checked into the repo, so
Python will continue to not be required to build the kernel, and the
script has been optimized for simplicity rather than performance.

Move -Wenum-{compare-conditional,enum-conversion} into W=1") because
there were numerous instances that would break builds with -Werror.
Unfortunately, this is not a full solution, as more and more developers,
subsystems, and distributors are building with W=1 as well, so they
continue to see the numerous instances of this warning.
Since the move to W=1, there have not been many new instances that have
appeared through various build reports and the ones that have appeared
seem to be following similar existing patterns, suggesting that most
instances of this warning will not be real issues. The only alternatives
for silencing this warning are adding casts (which is generally seen as
an ugly practice) or refactoring the enums to macro defines or a unified
enum (which may be undesirable because of type safety in other parts of
the code).
Move the warning to W=2, where warnings that occur frequently but may be

Linus observed that the symbol_request(utf8_data_table) call fails when
CONFIG_UNICODE=y and CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y.
symbol_get() relies on the symbol data being present in the ksymtab for
symbol lookups. However, EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(utf8_data_table) is dropped
due to CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS, as no module references it in this case.
Probably, this has been broken since commit dbacb0ef67 ("kconfig option
for TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS").
This commit addresses the issue by leveraging modpost. Symbol names
passed to symbol_get() are recorded in the special .no_trim_symbol
section, which is then parsed by modpost to forcibly keep such symbols.
The .no_trim_symbol section is discarded by the linker scripts, so there
is no impact on the size of the final vmlinux or modules.
This commit cannot resolve the issue for direct calls to __symbol_get()
because the symbol name is not known at compile-time.
Although symbol_get() may eventually be deprecated, this workaround
should be good enough meanwhile.

Clang's -Wformat-overflow and -Wformat-truncation have chosen to check
'%p' unlike GCC but it does not know about the kernel's pointer
extensions in lib/vsprintf.c, so the developers split that part of the
warning out for the kernel to disable because there will always be false
positives.
Commit 908dd50827 ("kbuild: enable -Wformat-truncation on clang") did
disabled these warnings but only in a block that would be called when
W=1 was not passed, so they would appear with W=1. Move the disabling of
the non-kprintf warnings to a block that always runs so that they are
never seen, regardless of warning level.

optimizations when CONFIG_OBJTOOL is disabled (e.g., for ARCH=arm64).
This is because every LLVM bitcode file is immediately converted to
ELF format before the object files are linked together.
This commit fixes the breakage.

Due to the fact that runtime const ELF sections are named without a
leading period or double underscore, the RSTRIP logic that removes the
static RELA sections from vmlinux fails to identify them. This results
in a situation like below, where some sections that were supposed to get
removed are left behind.
[Nr] Name Type Address Off Size ES Flg Lk Inf Al
[58] runtime_shift_d_hash_shift PROGBITS ffffffff83500f50 2900f50 000014 00 A 0 0 1

So tweak the match expression to strip all sections starting with .rel.
While at it, consolidate the logic used by RISC-V, s390 and x86 into a
single shared Makefile library command.

GCC 15 introduces a regression in "= { 0 }" style initialization of
unions that Linux has depended on for eliminating uninitialized variable
contents. GCC does not seem likely to fix it[1], instead suggesting[2]
that affected projects start using -fzero-init-padding-bits=unions.
To avoid future surprises beyond just the current situation with unions,
enable -fzero-init-padding-bits=all when available (GCC 15+). This will
correctly zero padding bits in unions and structs that might have been
left uninitialized, and will make sure there is no immediate regression
in union initializations. As seen in the stackinit KUnit selftest union
cases, which were passing before, were failing under GCC 15:
not ok 18 test_small_start_old_zero
ok 29 test_small_start_dynamic_partial # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 63
ok 32 test_small_start_assigned_dynamic_partial # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 63
ok 67 test_small_start_static_partial # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 63
ok 70 test_small_start_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 56
ok 73 test_small_start_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 56
ok 82 test_small_start_assigned_static_partial # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 63
ok 85 test_small_start_assigned_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 56
ok 88 test_small_start_assigned_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 56
The above all now pass again with -fzero-init-padding-bits=all added.
This also fixes the following cases for struct initialization that had
been XFAIL until now because there was no compiler support beyond the
larger "-ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero" option:
ok 38 test_small_hole_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 3
ok 39 test_big_hole_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 124
ok 40 test_trailing_hole_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 7
ok 42 test_small_hole_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 3
ok 43 test_big_hole_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 124
ok 44 test_trailing_hole_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 7
ok 58 test_small_hole_assigned_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 3
ok 59 test_big_hole_assigned_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 124
ok 60 test_trailing_hole_assigned_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 7
ok 62 test_small_hole_assigned_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 3
ok 63 test_big_hole_assigned_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 124
ok 64 test_trailing_hole_assigned_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 7
All of the above now pass when built under GCC 15. Tests can be seen
with:
./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run stackinit --arch=x86_64 \
--make_option CC=gcc-15
Clang continues to fully initialize these kinds of variables[3] without
additional flags.

Most 'make *config' commands use .config as the base configuration file.
When .config does not exist, Kconfig tries to load a file listed in
KCONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST instead.
However, since commit b75b0a819a ("kconfig: change defconfig_list
option to environment variable"), warning messages have displayed an
incorrect file name in such cases.
Below is a demonstration using Debian Trixie. While loading
/boot/config-6.12.9-amd64, the warning messages incorrectly show .config
as the file name.
With this commit, the correct file name is displayed in warnings.

A longstanding issue with genksyms is that it has hidden syntax errors.
For example, genksyms fails to parse the following valid code:
int x, __attribute__((__section__(".init.data")))y;
Here, only 'y' is annotated by the attribute, although I am not aware
of actual uses of this pattern in the kernel tree.
When a syntax error occurs, yyerror() is called. However,
error_with_pos() is a no-op unless the -w option is provided.
You can observe syntax errors by manually passing the -w option.
$ echo 'int x, __attribute__((__section__(".init.data")))y;' | scripts/genksyms/genksyms -w
<stdin>:1: syntax error
This commit allows attributes to be placed between a comma and
init_declarator.

The syntax error occurs because genksyms does not recognize the

The deprecated_apis map was created in [1] so checkpatch would flag
deprecated RCU APIs. These deprecated APIs have since been removed from
the kernel. This patch removes them from this map so checkpatch doesn't
waste time looking for them, and so readers of checkpatch looking for
deprecated APIs don't waste time searching for them.

- Teach verifier to recognize that array lookup with constant
in-range index will always succeed (Daniel Xu)
- Cleanup migrate disable scope in BPF maps (Hou Tao)
- Fix bpf_timer destroy path in PREEMPT_RT (Hou Tao)
- Always use bpf_mem_alloc in bpf_local_storage in PREEMPT_RT (Martin

- Remove excessive 'may_goto +0' instructions in the verifier that
LLVM leaves when unrolls the loops (Yonghong Song)
- Remove unhelpful bpf_probe_write_user() warning message (Marco
Elver)
- Add fd_array_cnt attribute for prog_load command (Anton Protopopov)

Core
----
- More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention,
including preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock,
replacing RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related
net device data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such
lock.
- Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge and
more specific TCP coverage.
- Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.
- Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
redirection based on such header field.
Netfilter
---------
- Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
netdev basechains without devices.
- Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
reset and re-open events.
- Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on
each restart.
Protocols
---------
- A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
several helpers into the core
- Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
inet peers handling.
- Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
address changes.
- Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.
- Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets,
to avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
lifetime is very short.
- Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel
TLS (for TLS 1.3 only).
- Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.
- Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.
- Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.
Driver API
----------
- Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
ethtool.
- Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.
- Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W implementation.
- Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.
- Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
implementation.
- Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.
- Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
interfaces.
Tests and tooling
-----------------
- Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
separately from the kernel.
- Increase TCP selftest coverage importing several packetdrill
test-cases.
- Regenerate the ethtool uapi header from the YNL spec,
to ease maintenance and future development.
- Add YNL support for decoding the link types used in net
self-tests, allowing a single build to run both net and
drivers/net.

Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Finish the move to custom FFI integer types started in the previous
cycle and finally map 'long' to 'isize' and 'char' to 'u8'. Do a few
cleanups on top thanks to that.
- Start to use 'derive(CoercePointee)' on Rust >= 1.84.0.
This is a major milestone on the path to build the kernel using only
stable Rust features. In particular, previously we were using the
unstable features 'coerce_unsized', 'dispatch_from_dyn' and 'unsize',
and now we will use the new 'derive_coerce_pointee' one, which is on
track to stabilization. This new feature is a macro that essentially
expands into code that internally uses the unstable features that we
were using before, without having to expose those.
With it, stable Rust users, including the kernel, will be able to
build custom smart pointers that work with trait objects, e.g.:
fn f(p: &Arc<dyn Display>) {
pr_info!("{p}\n");
}
let a: Arc<dyn Display> = Arc::new(42i32, GFP_KERNEL)?;
let b: Arc<dyn Display> = Arc::new("hello there", GFP_KERNEL)?;
f(&a); // Prints "42".
f(&b); // Prints "hello there".
Together with the 'arbitrary_self_types' feature that we started
using in the previous cycle, using our custom smart pointers like
'Arc' will eventually only rely in stable Rust.
- Introduce 'PROCMACROLDFLAGS' environment variable to allow to link
Rust proc macros using different flags than those used for linking
Rust host programs (e.g. when 'rustc' uses a different C library
than the host programs' one), which Android needs.
- Help kernel builds under macOS with Rust enabled by accomodating
other naming conventions for dynamic libraries (i.e. '.so' vs.
'.dylib') which are used for Rust procedural macros. The actual
support for macOS (i.e. the rest of the pieces needed) is provided
out-of-tree by others, following the policy used for other parts of
the kernel by Kbuild.
- Run Clippy for 'rusttest' code too and clean the bits it spotted.
- Provide Clippy with the minimum supported Rust version to improve
the suggestions it gives.
- Document 'bindgen' 0.71.0 regression.
'kernel' crate:
- 'build_error!': move users of the hidden function to the documented
macro, prevent such uses in the future by moving the function
elsewhere and add the macro to the prelude.
- 'types' module: add improved version of 'ForeignOwnable::borrow_mut'
(which was removed in the past since it was problematic); change
'ForeignOwnable' pointer type to '*mut'.
- 'alloc' module: implement 'Display' for 'Box' and align the 'Debug'
implementation to it; add example (doctest) for 'ArrayLayout::new()'.
- 'sync' module: document 'PhantomData' in 'Arc'; use
'NonNull::new_unchecked' in 'ForeignOwnable for Arc' impl.
- 'uaccess' module: accept 'Vec's with different allocators in
'UserSliceReader::read_all'.
- 'workqueue' module: enable run-testing a couple more doctests.
- 'error' module: simplify 'from_errno()'.
- 'block' module: fix formatting in code documentation (a lint to catch
these is being implemented).
- Avoid 'unwrap()'s in doctests, which also improves the examples by
showing how kernel code is supposed to be written.
- Avoid 'as' casts with 'cast{,_mut}' calls which are a bit safer.
And a few other cleanups.

The sorttable.c was a copy from recordmcount.c which is very hard to
maintain. That's because it uses macro helpers and places the code in a
header file sorttable.h to handle both the 64 bit and 32 bit version of
the Elf structures. It also uses _r()/r()/r2() wrappers around accessing
the data which will read the 64 bit or 32 bit version of the data as well
as handle endianess. If the wrong wrapper is used, an invalid value will
result, and this has been a cause for bugs in the past. In fact the new
ORC code doesn't even use it. That's fine because ORC is only for 64 bit
x86 which is the default parsing.
Instead of having a bunch of macros defined and then include the code
twice from a header, the Elf structures are each wrapped in a union. The
union holds the 64 bit and 32 bit version of the needed structure. Then
a structure of function pointers is used, along with helper macros
to access the ELF types appropriately for their byte size and endianess.
How to reference the data fields is moved from the code that implements
the sorting to the helper functions where all accesses to a field will
use he same helper function. As long as the helper functions access
the fields correctly, the code will also access the fields. This is
an improvement over having to code implementing the sorting having to
make sure it always uses the right accessor function when reading an
ELF field.
This is a clean up only, the functionality of the scripts/sorttable.c
does not change.

A longstanding issue with genksyms is that it has hidden syntax errors.
When a syntax error occurs, yyerror() is called. However,
error_with_pos() is a no-op unless the -w option is provided.
You can observe syntax errors by manually passing the -w option.
For example, with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y on v6.13-rc1:
$ make -s KCFLAGS=-D__GENKSYMS__ arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.i
$ cat arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.i | scripts/genksyms/genksyms -w
[ snip ]
./arch/x86/include/asm/svm.h:122: syntax error
The syntax error occurs in the following code in arch/x86/include/asm/svm.h:
struct __attribute__ ((__packed__)) vmcb_control_area {
[ snip ]
};
The issue arises from __attribute__ immediately after the 'struct'
keyword.
This commit allows the 'struct' keyword to be followed by attributes.
The lexer must be adjusted because dont_want_brace_phase should not be
decremented while processing attributes.

To avoid conflicts, I tweaked the rule for decl_specifier_seq. Due to
this change, a standalone attribute cannot become decl_specifier_seq.
Otherwise, I do not know how to resolve the conflicts.
The following code, which was previously accepted by genksyms, will now
result in a syntax error:
void my_func(__attribute__((unused))x);
I do not think it is a big deal because GCC also fails to parse it.
$ echo 'void my_func(__attribute__((unused))x);' | gcc -c -x c -

I believe the missing action here is a bug.
For rules with no explicit action, the following default is used:
{ $$ = $1; }
However, in this case, $1 is the value of attribute_opt itself. As a
result, the value of attribute_opt is always NULL.
The following test code demonstrates inconsistent behavior.
int x __attribute__((__aligned__(4)));
int y __attribute__((__aligned__(4))) = 0;
The attribute is recorded only when followed by an initializer.
This commit adds the correct action to propagate the value of the
ATTRIBUTE_PHRASE token.
With this change, the attribute in the example above is consistently
recorded for both 'x' and 'y'.
[Before]
$ cat <<EOF | scripts/genksyms/genksyms -d
int x __attribute__((__aligned__(4)));
int y __attribute__((__aligned__(4))) = 0;

Similar to the previous commit, this change makes the parser logic a
little more accurate.
Currently, genksyms accepts the following invalid code:
struct foo {
int (*callback)(int)(int)(int);
};
A direct-declarator should not recursively absorb multiple
( parameter-type-list ) constructs.
In the example above, (*callback) should be followed by at most one
(int).

While there is no more grammatical ambiguity in genksyms, the parser
logic is still inaccurate.
For example, genksyms accepts the following invalid C code:
void my_func(int ()(int));
This should result in a syntax error because () cannot be reduced to
<direct-abstract-declarator>.
( <abstract-declarator> ) can be reduced, but <abstract-declarator>
must not be empty in the following grammar from K&R [1]:
<direct-abstract-declarator> ::= ( <abstract-declarator> )
| {<direct-abstract-declarator>}? [ {<constant-expression>}? ]
| {<direct-abstract-declarator>}? ( {<parameter-type-list>}? )
Furthermore, genksyms accepts the following weird code:
void my_func(int (*callback)(int)(int)(int));
The parser allows <direct-abstract-declarator> to recursively absorb
multiple ( {<parameter-type-list>}? ), but this behavior is incorrect.
In the example above, (*callback) should be followed by at most one
(int).

The genksyms parser has ambiguities in its grammar, which are currently
suppressed by a workaround in scripts/genksyms/Makefile.
Building genksyms with W=1 generates the following warnings:
YACC scripts/genksyms/parse.tab.[ch]
scripts/genksyms/parse.y: warning: 3 shift/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-sr]
scripts/genksyms/parse.y: note: rerun with option '-Wcounterexamples' to generate conflict counterexamples
The ambiguity arises when decl_specifier_seq is followed by '(' because
the following two interpretations are possible:
- decl_specifier_seq direct_abstract_declarator '(' parameter_declaration_clause ')'
- decl_specifier_seq '(' abstract_declarator ')'
This issue occurs because the current parser allows an empty string to
be reduced to direct_abstract_declarator, which is incorrect.
K&R [1] explains the correct grammar:
<parameter-declaration> ::= {<declaration-specifier>}+ <declarator>
| {<declaration-specifier>}+ <abstract-declarator>
| {<declaration-specifier>}+
<abstract-declarator> ::= <pointer>
| <pointer> <direct-abstract-declarator>
| <direct-abstract-declarator>
<direct-abstract-declarator> ::= ( <abstract-declarator> )
| {<direct-abstract-declarator>}? [ {<constant-expression>}? ]
| {<direct-abstract-declarator>}? ( {<parameter-type-list>}? )
This commit resolves all remaining conflicts.
We need to consider the difference between the following two examples:
[Example 1] ( <abstract-declarator> ) can become <direct-abstract-declarator>
void my_func(int (foo));
... is equivalent to:
void my_func(int foo);
[Example 2] ( <parameter-type-list> ) can become <direct-abstract-declarator>
typedef int foo;
void my_func(int (foo));
... is equivalent to:
void my_func(int (*callback)(int));
Please note that the function declaration is identical in both examples,
but the preceding typedef creates the distinction. I introduced a new
term, open_paren, to enable the type lookup immediately after the '('
token. Without this, we cannot distinguish between [Example 1] and
[Example 2].

scripts/genksyms/parse.y: note: rerun with option '-Wcounterexamples' to generate conflict counterexamples
The comment in the parser describes the current problem:
/* This wasn't really a typedef name but an identifier that
shadows one. */
Consider the following simple C code:
typedef int foo;
void my_func(foo foo) {}
In the function parameter list (foo foo), the first 'foo' is a type
specifier (typedef'ed as 'int'), while the second 'foo' is an identifier.
However, the lexer cannot distinguish between the two. Since 'foo' is
already typedef'ed, the lexer returns TYPE for both instances, instead
of returning IDENT for the second one.
To support shadowed identifiers, TYPE can be reduced to either a
simple_type_specifier or a direct_abstract_declarator, which creates
a grammatical ambiguity.
Without analyzing the grammar context, it is very difficult to resolve
this correctly.
This commit introduces a flag, dont_want_type_specifier, which allows
the parser to inform the lexer whether an identifier is expected. When
dont_want_type_specifier is true, the type lookup is suppressed, and
the lexer returns IDENT regardless of any preceding typedef.
After this commit, only 3 shift/reduce conflicts will remain.

Since commit bdf8eafbf7 ("arm64: stacktrace: report source of unwind
data") a stack trace line can contain an additional info field that was not
present before, in the form of one or more letters in parentheses. E.g.:
[ 504.517915] led_sysfs_enable+0x54/0x80 (P)
^^^
When this is present, decode_stacktrace decodes the line incorrectly:
[ 504.517915] led_sysfs_enable+0x54/0x80 P
Extend parsing to decode it correctly:
[ 504.517915] led_sysfs_enable (drivers/leds/led-core.c:455 (discriminator 7)) (P)
The regex to match such lines assumes the info can be extended in the
future to other uppercase characters, and will need to be extended in case
other characters will be used. Using a much more generic regex might incur
in false positives, so this looked like a good tradeoff.

The compiler may choose not to emit type information in DWARF for
external symbols. Clang, for example, does this for symbols not
defined in the current TU.
To provide a way to work around this issue, add support for
__gendwarfksyms_ptr_<symbol> pointers that force the compiler to emit
the necessary type information in DWARF also for the missing symbols.
Example usage:
#define GENDWARFKSYMS_PTR(sym) \
static typeof(sym) *__gendwarfksyms_ptr_##sym __used \
__section(".discard.gendwarfksyms") = &sym;
extern int external_symbol(void);
GENDWARFKSYMS_PTR(external_symbol);

Distributions that want to maintain a stable kABI need the ability
to make ABI compatible changes to kernel data structures without
affecting symbol versions, either because of LTS updates or backports.
With genksyms, developers would typically hide these changes from
version calculation with #ifndef __GENKSYMS__, which would result
in the symbol version not changing even though the actual type has
changed. When we process precompiled object files, this isn't an
option.
Change union processing to recognize field name prefixes that allow
the user to ignore the union completely during symbol versioning with
a __kabi_ignored prefix in a field name, or to replace the type of a
placeholder field using a __kabi_reserved field name prefix.
For example, assume we want to add a new field to an existing
alignment hole in a data structure, and ignore the new field when
calculating symbol versions:
struct struct1 {
int a;
/* a 4-byte alignment hole */
unsigned long b;
};
To add `int n` to the alignment hole, we can add a union that includes
a __kabi_ignored field that causes gendwarfksyms to ignore the entire
union:
struct struct1 {
int a;
union {
char __kabi_ignored_0;
int n;
};
unsigned long b;
};
With --stable, both structs produce the same symbol version.
Alternatively, when a distribution expects future modification to a
data structure, they can explicitly add reserved fields:
struct struct2 {
long a;
long __kabi_reserved_0; /* reserved for future use */
};
To take the field into use, we can again replace it with a union, with
one of the fields keeping the __kabi_reserved name prefix to indicate
the original type:
struct struct2 {
long a;
union {
long __kabi_reserved_0;
struct {
int b;
int v;
};
};
Here gendwarfksyms --stable replaces the union with the type of the
placeholder field when calculating versions.

To support this use case, add a --stable command line flag that
gates kABI stability features that are not needed in mainline
kernels, but can be useful for distributions, and add support for
kABI rules, which can be used to restrict gendwarfksyms output.
The rules are specified as a set of null-terminated strings stored
in the .discard.gendwarfksyms.kabi_rules section. Each rule consists
of four strings as follows:
"version\0type\0target\0value"
The version string ensures the structure can be changed in a
backwards compatible way. The type string indicates the type of the
rule, and target and value strings contain rule-specific data.
Initially support two simple rules:
1. Declaration-only types
A type declaration can change into a full definition when
additional includes are pulled in to the TU, which changes the
versions of any symbol that references the type. Add support
for defining declaration-only types whose definition is not
expanded during versioning.
2. Ignored enumerators
It's possible to add new enum fields without changing the ABI,
but as the fields are included in symbol versioning, this would
change the versions. Add support for ignoring specific fields.
3. Overridden enumerator values
Add support for overriding enumerator values when calculating
versions. This may be needed when the last field of the enum
is used as a sentinel and new fields must be added before it.
Add examples for using the rules under the examples/ directory.

Currently, 'unsigned long' is used for intermediate variables when
calculating CRCs.
The size of 'long' differs depending on the architecture: it is 32 bits
on 32-bit architectures and 64 bits on 64-bit architectures.
The CRC values generated by genksyms represent the compatibility of
exported symbols. Therefore, reproducibility is important. In other
words, we need to ensure that the output is the same when the kernel
source is identical, regardless of whether genksyms is running on a
32-bit or 64-bit build machine.
Fortunately, the output from genksyms is not affected by the build
machine's architecture because only the lower 32 bits of the
'unsigned long' variables are used.
To make it even clearer that the CRC calculation is independent of
the build machine's architecture, this commit explicitly uses the
fixed-width type, uint32_t.

When a symbol that is already registered is read again from *.symref

#include <linux/export.h>
void foo(void);
void foo(void) {}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
$ cat foo.symref
foo void foo ( void )
foo void foo ( void )
When a symbol is removed from the hash table, it must be freed along
with its ->name and ->defn members. However, sym->name cannot be freed
because it is sometimes shared with node->string, but not always. If
sym->name and node->string share the same memory, free(sym->name) could
lead to a double-free bug.
To resolve this issue, always assign a strdup'ed string to sym->name.

When a symbol that is already registered is added again, __add_symbol()
returns without freeing the symbol definition, making it unreachable.
The following test cases demonstrate different memory leak points.
[Test Case 1]
Forward declaration with exactly the same definition
$ cat foo.c
#include <linux/export.h>
void foo(void);
void foo(void) {}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
[Test Case 2]
Forward declaration with a different definition (e.g. attribute)
$ cat foo.c
#include <linux/export.h>
void foo(void);
__attribute__((__section__(".ref.text"))) void foo(void) {}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
[Test Case 3]
Preserving an overridden symbol (compile with KBUILD_PRESERVE=1)
$ cat foo.c
#include <linux/export.h>
void foo(void);
void foo(void) { }
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
$ cat foo.symref
override foo void foo ( int )
The memory leaks in Test Case 1 and 2 have existed since the introduction
of genksyms into the kernel tree. [1]
The memory leak in Test Case 3 was introduced by commit 5dae9a550a
("genksyms: allow to ignore symbol checksum changes").
When multiple init_declarators are reduced to an init_declarator_list,
the decl_spec must be duplicated. Otherwise, the following Test Case 4
would result in a double-free bug.
[Test Case 4]
$ cat foo.c
#include <linux/export.h>
extern int foo, bar;
int foo, bar;
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
In this case, 'foo' and 'bar' share the same decl_spec, 'int'. It must
be unshared before being passed to add_symbol().

The linux-image package currently includes empty hook directories
(/etc/kernel/{pre,post}{inst,rm}.d/ by default).
These directories were perhaps intended as a fail-safe in case no
hook scripts exist there.
However, they are really unnecessary because the run-parts command is
already guarded by the following check:
test -d ${debhookdir}/${script}.d && run-parts ...
The only difference is that the run-parts command either runs for empty
directories (resulting in a no-op) or is skipped entirely.
The maintainer scripts will succeed without these dummy directories.
The linux-image packages from the Debian kernel do not contain
/etc/kernel/*.d/, either.

Because the `macros` crate exposes procedural macros, it must be
compiled as a dynamic library (so it can be loaded by the compiler at
compile-time).
Before this change the resulting artifact was always named
`libmacros.so`, which works on hosts where this matches the naming
convention for dynamic libraries. However the proper name on macOS would
be `libmacros.dylib`.
This turns out to matter even when the dependency is passed with a path
(`--extern macros=path/to/libmacros.so` rather than `--extern macros`)
because rustc uses the file name to infer the type of the library (see
link). This is because there's no way to specify both the path to and
the type of the external library via CLI flags. The compiler could
speculatively parse the file to determine its type, but it does not do
so today.
This means that libraries that match neither rustc's naming convention
for static libraries nor the platform's naming convention for dynamic
libraries are *rejected*.
The only solution I've found is to follow the host platform's naming
convention. This patch does that by querying the compiler to determine
the appropriate name for the artifact. This allows the kernel to build
with CONFIG_RUST=y on macOS.

file_start = popen(" grep start_mcount System.map | awk '{print $1}' ", "r");
and
file_stop = popen(" grep stop_mcount System.map | awk '{print $1}' ", "r");
Those values are stored in the Elf symbol table. Use that to capture those
values. Using the symbol table is more efficient and more robust. The
above could fail if another variable had "start_mcount" or "stop_mcount"
as part of its name.

Instead of having the main code live in a header file and included twice
with MACROs that define the Elf structures for 64 bit or 32 bit, move the
code in the C file now that the Elf structures are defined in a union that
has both. All accesses to the Elf structure fields are done through helper
function pointers. If the file being parsed if for a 64 bit architecture,
all the helper functions point to the 64 bit versions to retrieve the Elf
fields. The same is true if the architecture is 32 bit, where the function
pointers will point to the 32 bit helper functions.
Note, when the value of a field can be either 32 bit or 64 bit, a 64 bit
is always returned, as it works for the 32 bit code as well.
This makes the code easier to read and maintain, and it now all exists in
sorttable.c and sorttable.h may be removed.

The mcount sorting defines uint_t to uint64_t on 64bit architectures and
uint32_t on 32bit architectures. It can work with just using uint64_t as
that will hold the values of both, and they are not used to point into the
ELF file.
sizeof(uint_t) is used for defining the size of the mcount_loc section.
Instead of using a type, define long_size and use that instead. This will
allow the header code to be moved into the C file as generic functions and
not need to include sorttable.h twice, once for 64bit and once for 32bit.

In order to remove the double #include of sorttable.h for 64 and 32 bit
to create duplicate functions, add helper functions for Elf_Sym. This
will create a function pointer for each helper that will get assigned to
the appropriate function to handle either the 64bit or 32bit version.
This also removes the last references of etype and _r() macros from the
sorttable.h file as their references are now just defined in the
appropriate architecture version of the helper functions. All read
functions now exist in the helper functions which makes it easier to
maintain, as the helper functions define the necessary architecture sizes.

Instead of having the compare_extable() part of the sorttable.h header
where it get's defined twice, since it is a very simple function, just
define it twice in sorttable.c, and then it can use the proper read
functions for the word size and endianess and the Elf_Addr macro can be
removed from sorttable.h.
Also add a micro optimization. Instead of:
if (a < b)
return -1;
if (a > b)
return 1;
return 0;
That can be shorten to:
if (a < b)
return -1;

The ORC code reads the section information directly from the file. This
currently works because the default read function is for 64bit little
endian machines. But if for some reason that ever changes, this will
break. Instead of having a surprise breakage, use the _r() functions that
will read the values from the file properly.

The orc_sort_cmp() function, used with qsort(), previously violated the
symmetry and transitivity rules required by the C standard. Specifically,
when both entries are ORC_TYPE_UNDEFINED, it could result in both a < b
and b < a, which breaks the required symmetry and transitivity. This can
lead to undefined behavior and incorrect sorting results, potentially
causing memory corruption in glibc implementations [1].
Symmetry: If x < y, then y > x.
Transitivity: If x < y and y < z, then x < z.
Fix the comparison logic to return 0 when both entries are
ORC_TYPE_UNDEFINED, ensuring compliance with qsort() requirements.

The guidelines for git commit ID abbreviation are inconsistent: some
places state to use 12 characters exactly, while other places recommend
12 characters or more. The same issue is present in the checkpatch.pl
script.
E.g. Documentation/dev-tools/checkpatch.rst says:
**GIT_COMMIT_ID**
The proper way to reference a commit id is:
commit <12+ chars of sha1> ("<title line>")
However, scripts/checkpatch.pl has two different checks: one warning
check accepting 12 characters exactly:
# Check Fixes: styles is correct
Please use correct Fixes: style 'Fixes: <12 chars of sha1> (\"<title line>\")'
and a second error check accepting 12-40 characters:
# Check for git id commit length and improperly formed commit descriptions
# A correctly formed commit description is:
# commit <SHA-1 hash length 12+ chars> ("Complete commit subject")
Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of sha1>
Hence patches containing commit IDs with more than 12 characters are
flagged by checkpatch, and sometimes rejected by maintainers or
reviewers. This is becoming more important with the growth of the
repository, as git may decide to use more characters in case of local
conflicts.
Fix this by settling on at least 12 characters, in both the
documentation and in the checkpatch.pl script.

The problem is the regex for the identifier, which is a greedy /.*/ that
matches everything up to the last - or : (i.e. $decl_end). Fix it by
tightening up this regex and not matching those characters as part of the
identifier.

With the latest binutils, modpost fails with a bus error on some
architectures such as ARM and sparc64.
Since binutils commit 1f1b5e506bf0 ("bfd/ELF: restrict file alignment
for object files"), the byte offset to each section (sh_offset) in
relocatable ELF is no longer guaranteed to be aligned.
modpost parses MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() data structures, which are usually
located in the .rodata section. If it is not properly aligned, unaligned
access errors may occur.
To address the issue, this commit imports the get_unaligned() helper
from include/linux/unaligned.h.
The get_unaligned_native() helper caters to the endianness in addition
to handling the unaligned access.
I slightly refactored do_pcmcia_entry() and do_input() to avoid writing
back to an unaligned address. (We would need the put_unaligned() helper
to do that.)
The addend_*_rel() functions need similar adjustments because the .text
sections are not aligned either.
It seems that the .symtab, .rel.* and .rela.* sections are still aligned.
Keep normal pointer access for these sections to avoid unnecessary
performance costs.

scripts/kernel-doc: Get -export option working again
This is new API which caters to the following requirements:
- Pack or unpack a large number of fields to/from a buffer with a small
code footprint. The current alternative is to open-code a large number
of calls to pack() and unpack(), or to use packing() to reduce that
number to half. But packing() is not const-correct.
- Use unpacked numbers stored in variables smaller than u64. This
reduces the rodata footprint of the stored field arrays.
- Perform error checking at compile time, rather than runtime, and return
void from the API functions. Because the C preprocessor can't generate
variable length code (loops), this is a bit tricky to do with macros.
To handle this, implement macros which sanity check the packed field
definitions based on their size. Finally, a single macro with a chain of
__builtin_choose_expr() is used to select the appropriate macros. We
enforce the use of ascending or descending order to avoid O(N^2) scaling
when checking for overlap. Note that the macros are written with care to
ensure that the compilers can correctly evaluate the resulting code at
compile time. In particular, care was taken with avoiding too many nested
statement expressions. Nested statement expressions trip up some
compilers, especially when passing down variables created in previous
statement expressions.
There are two key design choices intended to keep the overall macro code
size small. First, the definition of each CHECK_PACKED_FIELDS_N macro is
implemented recursively, by calling the N-1 macro. This avoids needing
the code to repeat multiple times.
Second, the CHECK_PACKED_FIELD macro enforces that the fields in the
array are sorted in order. This allows checking for overlap only with
neighboring fields, rather than the general overlap case where each field
would need to be checked against other fields.
The overlap checks use the first two fields to determine the order of the
remaining fields, thus allowing either ascending or descending order.
This enables drivers the flexibility to keep the fields ordered in which
ever order most naturally fits their hardware design and its associated
documentation.
The CHECK_PACKED_FIELDS macro is directly called from within pack_fields
and unpack_fields, ensuring that all drivers using the API receive the
benefits of the compile-time checks. Users do not need to directly call
any of the macros directly.
The CHECK_PACKED_FIELDS and its helper macros CHECK_PACKED_FIELDS_(0..50)
are generated using a simple C program in scripts/gen_packed_field_checks.c
This program can be compiled on demand and executed to generate the
macro code in include/linux/packing.h. This will aid in the event that a
driver needs more than 50 fields. The generator can be updated with a new
size, and used to update the packing.h header file. In practice, the ice
driver will need to support 27 fields, and the sja1105 driver will need
to support 0 fields. This on-demand generation avoids the need to modify
Kbuild. We do not anticipate the maximum number of fields to grow very
often.
- Reduced rodata footprint for the storage of the packed field arrays.
To that end, we have struct packed_field_u8 and packed_field_u16, which
define the fields with the associated type. More can be added as
needed (unlikely for now). On these types, the same generic pack_fields()
and unpack_fields() API can be used, thanks to the new C11 _Generic()
selection feature, which can call pack_fields_u8() or pack_fields_16(),
depending on the type of the "fields" array - a simplistic form of
polymorphism. It is evaluated at compile time which function will actually
be called.
Over time, packing() is expected to be completely replaced either with
pack() or with pack_fields().

Since commit cdd30ebb1b ("module: Convert symbol namespace to string
literal"), exported symbols marked by EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(_GPL) are
ignored by "kernel-doc -export" in fresh build of "make htmldocs".
This is because regex in the perl script for those markers fails to
match the new signatures:
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(symbol, "ns");
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(symbol, "ns");
Update the regex so that it matches quoted string.
Note: Escape sequence of \w is good for C identifiers, but can be
too strict for quoted strings. Instead, use \S, which matches any
non-whitespace character, for compatibility with possible extension
of namespace convention in the future [1].

Since commit 0043ecea23 ("vmlinux.lds.h: Adjust symbol ordering in
text output section"), the exception table in arch/openrisc/kernel/head.S
is no longer positioned at the very beginning of the kernel image, which
causes a boot failure.
Currently, the exception table resides in the regular .text section.
Previously, it was placed at the head by relying on the linker receiving
arch/openrisc/kernel/head.o as the first object. However, this behavior
has changed because sections like .text.{asan,unknown,unlikely,hot} now
precede the regular .text section.
The .head.text section is intended for entry points requiring special
placement. However, in OpenRISC, this section has been misused: instead
of the entry points, it contains boot code meant to be discarded after
booting. This feature is typically handled by the .init.text section.
This commit addresses the issue by replacing the current __HEAD marker
with __INIT and re-annotating the entry points with __HEAD. Additionally,
it adds __REF to entry.S to suppress the following modpost warning:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: _tng_kernel_start+0x70 (section: .text) -> _start (section: .init.text)

The first error message in device_id_check() is obscure and can be
misleading because the cause of the error is unlikely to be found in
the struct definition in mod_devicetable.h.
This type of error occurs when an array is passed to an incorrect type
of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE().
[Example 1]
static const struct acpi_device_id foo_ids[] = {
{ "FOO" },
{ /* sentinel */ },
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, foo_ids);
Currently, modpost outputs a meaningless suggestion:
ERROR: modpost: ...: sizeof(struct of_device_id)=200 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_device_table__of__<identifier>=64.
Fix definition of struct of_device_id in mod_devicetable.h
The root cause here is that MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, ...) is used instead
of the correct MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, ...).
This commit provides a more intuitive error message:
ERROR: modpost: ...: type mismatch between foo_ids[] and MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, ...)
The second error message, related to a missing terminator, is too
verbose.
[Example 2]
static const struct acpi_device_id foo_ids[] = {
{ "FOO" },
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, foo_ids);
The current error message is overly long, and does not pinpoint the
incorrect array:
...: struct acpi_device_id is 32 bytes. The last of 1 is:
0x46 0x4f 0x4f 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
ERROR: modpost: ...: struct acpi_device_id is not terminated with a NULL entry!
This commit changes it to a more concise error message, sufficient to
identify the incorrect array:
ERROR: modpost: ...: foo_ids[] is not terminated with a NULL entry
Lastly, this commit squashes device_id_check() into do_table() and
changes fatal() into error(), allowing modpost to continue processing
other modules.

MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(pnp_card, ...) may have duplicated IDs. For
instance, snd_ad1816a_pnpids[] in sound/isa/ad1816a/ad1816a.c includes
multiple occurrences of the "ADS7180" string within its .devs fields.
Currently, do_pnp_card_entries() handles deduplication on its own, but
this logic should be moved to a common helper function, as drivers in
other subsystems might also have similar duplication issues.
For example, drivers/media/i2c/s5c73m3/s5c73m3.mod.c contains duplicated
MODULE_ALIAS() entries because both s5c73m3-core.c and s5c73m3-spi.c
define the same compatible string.
This commit eliminates redundant MODULE_ALIAS() entries across all
drivers.
[Before]
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/media/i2c/s5c73m3/s5c73m3.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("i2c:S5C73M3");
MODULE_ALIAS("of:N*T*Csamsung,s5c73m3");

The generic ->do_entry() handler is currently limited to returning
a single alias string.
However, this is not flexible enough for several subsystems, which
currently require their own implementations:
- do_usb_table()
- do_of_table()
- do_pnp_device_entry()
- do_pnp_card_entries()
This commit introduces a helper function so that these special cases can
add multiple MODULE_ALIAS() and then migrate to the generic framework.

This function contains multiple bugs after the following commits:
- ac55182899 ("modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard")
- 6543becf26 ("mod/file2alias: make modalias generation safe for cross compiling")
Commit ac55182899 inserted the following code to do_eisa_entry():
else
strcat(alias, "*");
This is incorrect because 'alias' is uninitialized. If it is not
NULL-terminated, strcat() could cause a buffer overrun.
Even if 'alias' happens to be zero-filled, it would output:
MODULE_ALIAS("*");
This would match anything. As a result, the module could be loaded by
any unrelated uevent from an unrelated subsystem.
Commit ac55182899 introduced another bug.
Prior to that commit, the conditional check was:
if (eisa->sig[0])
This checked if the first character of eisa_device_id::sig was not '\0'.
However, commit ac55182899 changed it as follows:
if (sig[0])
sig[0] is NOT the first character of the eisa_device_id::sig. The
type of 'sig' is 'char (*)[8]', meaning that the type of 'sig[0]' is
'char [8]' instead of 'char'. 'sig[0]' and 'symval' refer to the same
address, which never becomes NULL.
The correct conversion would have been:
if ((*sig)[0])
However, this if-conditional was meaningless because the earlier change
in commit ac551828993e was incorrect.
This commit removes the entire incorrect code, which should never have
been executed.

Contrary to expectations, passing a single candidate tag to "git
describe" is slower than not passing any --match options.
$ time git describe --debug
...
traversed 10619 commits
...
v6.12-rc5-63-g0fc810ae3ae1
real 0m0.169s
$ time git describe --match=v6.12-rc5 --debug
...
traversed 1310024 commits
v6.12-rc5-63-g0fc810ae3ae1
real 0m1.281s
In fact, the --debug output shows that git traverses all or most of
history. For some repositories and/or git versions, those 1.3s are
actually 10-15 seconds.
This has been acknowledged as a performance bug in git [1], and a fix
is on its way [2]. However, no solution is yet in git.git, and even
when one lands, it will take quite a while before it finds its way to
a release and for $random_kernel_developer to pick that up.
So rewrite the logic to use plumbing commands. For each of the
candidate values of $tag, we ask: (1) is $tag even an annotated
tag? (2) Is it eligible to describe HEAD, i.e. an ancestor of
HEAD? (3) If so, how many commits are in $tag..HEAD?
I have tested that this produces the same output as the current script
for ~700 random commits between v6.9..v6.10. For those 700 commits,
and in my git repo, the 'make -s kernelrelease' command is on average
~4 times faster with this patch applied (geometric mean of ratios).
For the commit mentioned in Josh's original report [3], the
time-consuming part of setlocalversion goes from

Replace lz4c with lz4 for kernel image compression.
Although lz4 and lz4c are functionally similar, lz4c has been deprecated
upstream since 2018. Since as early as Ubuntu 16.04 and Fedora 25, lz4
and lz4c have been packaged together, making it safe to update the
requirement from lz4c to lz4.
Consequently, some distributions and build systems, such as OpenEmbedded,
have fully transitioned to using lz4. OpenEmbedded core adopted this
change in commit fe167e082cbd ("bitbake.conf: require lz4 instead of
lz4c"), causing compatibility issues when building the mainline kernel
in the latest OpenEmbedded environment, as seen in the errors below.
This change also updates the LZ4 compression commands to make it backward
compatible by replacing stdin and stdout with the '-' option, due to some
unclear reason, the stdout keyword does not work for lz4 and '-' works for
both. In addition, this modifies the legacy '-c1' with '-9' which is also
compatible with both. This fixes the mainline kernel build failures with
the latest master OpenEmbedded builds associated with the mentioned
compatibility issues.

Currently, Kbuild always operates in the output directory of the kernel,
even when building external modules. This increases the risk of external
module Makefiles attempting to write to the kernel directory.
This commit switches the working directory to the external module
directory, allowing the removal of the $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/ prefix from
some build artifacts.
The command for building external modules maintains backward
compatibility, but Makefiles that rely on working in the kernel
directory may break. In such cases, $(objtree) and $(srctree) should
be used to refer to the output and source directories of the kernel.
The appearance of the build log will change as follows:

really the biggest highlight for Linux kernel modules in this release. With
it we share huge pages for modules, starting off with x86. Expect to see that

* Matthew Maurer and Sami Tolvanen have been tag teaming to help
get us closer to a modversions for Rust. In this cycle we take in
quite a lot of the refactoring for ELF validation. I expect modversions
for Rust will be merged by v6.14 as that code is mostly ready now.
* Adds a new modules selftests: kallsyms which helps us tests find_symbol()
and the limits of kallsyms on Linux today.
* We have a realtime mailing list to kernel-ci testing for modules now
which relies and combines patchwork, kpd and kdevops:
- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-modules/list/
- https://github.com/linux-kdevops/kdevops/blob/main/docs/kernel-ci/README.md

- https://github.com/linux-kdevops/kdevops/blob/main/docs/kernel-ci/linux-modules-kdevops-ci.md
If you want to help avoid Linux kernel modules regressions, now its simple,
just add a new Linux modules sefltests under tools/testing/selftests/module/
That is it. All new selftests will be used and leveraged automatically by

Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain:
- The whole caching of module code into huge pages by Mike Rapoport is
going in through Andrew Morton's tree due to some other code
dependencies. That's really the biggest highlight for Linux kernel
modules in this release. With it we share huge pages for modules,
starting off with x86. Expect to see that soon through Andrew!
- Helge Deller addressed some lingering low hanging fruit alignment
enhancements by. It is worth pointing out that from his old patch
series I dropped his vmlinux.lds.h change at Masahiro's request as he
would prefer this to be specified in asm code [0].

- Matthew Maurer and Sami Tolvanen have been tag teaming to help get us
closer to a modversions for Rust. In this cycle we take in quite a
lot of the refactoring for ELF validation. I expect modversions for
Rust will be merged by v6.14 as that code is mostly ready now.
- Adds a new modules selftests: kallsyms which helps us tests
find_symbol() and the limits of kallsyms on Linux today.
- We have a realtime mailing list to kernel-ci testing for modules now
which relies and combines patchwork, kpd and kdevops:

If you want to help avoid Linux kernel modules regressions, now its
simple, just add a new Linux modules sefltests under
tools/testing/selftests/module/ That is it. All new selftests will be
used and leveraged automatically by the CI.

Kernels built without CONFIG_MODULES might still want to create -dbg deb
packages but install_linux_image_dbg() assumes modules.order always
exists. This obviously isn't true if no modules were built, so we should
skip reading modules.order in that case.

Add the build support for using Clang's Propeller optimizer. Like
AutoFDO, Propeller uses hardware sampling to gather information
about the frequency of execution of different code paths within a
binary. This information is then used to guide the compiler's
optimization decisions, resulting in a more efficient binary.
The support requires a Clang compiler LLVM 19 or later, and the
create_llvm_prof tool
(https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1). This
commit is limited to x86 platforms that support PMU features
like LBR on Intel machines and AMD Zen3 BRS.
Here is an example workflow for building an AutoFDO+Propeller
optimized kernel:
1) Build the kernel on the host machine, with AutoFDO and Propeller
build config
CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=y
CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG=y
then
$ make LLVM=1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=<autofdo_profile>
“<autofdo_profile>” is the profile collected when doing a non-Propeller
AutoFDO build. This step builds a kernel that has the same optimization
level as AutoFDO, plus a metadata section that records basic block
information. This kernel image runs as fast as an AutoFDO optimized
kernel.
2) Install the kernel on test/production machines.
3) Run the load tests. The '-c' option in perf specifies the sample
event period. We suggest using a suitable prime number,
like 500009, for this purpose.
For Intel platforms:
$ perf record -e BR_INST_RETIRED.NEAR_TAKEN:k -a -N -b -c <count> \
-o <perf_file> -- <loadtest>
For AMD platforms:
The supported system are: Zen3 with BRS, or Zen4 with amd_lbr_v2
# To see if Zen3 support LBR:
$ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep " brs"
# To see if Zen4 support LBR:
$ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep amd_lbr_v2
# If the result is yes, then collect the profile using:
$ perf record --pfm-events RETIRED_TAKEN_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS:k -a \
-N -b -c <count> -o <perf_file> -- <loadtest>
4) (Optional) Download the raw perf file to the host machine.
5) Generate Propeller profile:
$ create_llvm_prof --binary=<vmlinux> --profile=<perf_file> \
--format=propeller --propeller_output_module_name \
--out=<propeller_profile_prefix>_cc_profile.txt \
--propeller_symorder=<propeller_profile_prefix>_ld_profile.txt
“create_llvm_prof” is the profile conversion tool, and a prebuilt
binary for linux can be found on
https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1 (can also build
from source).
"<propeller_profile_prefix>" can be something like
"/home/user/dir/any_string".
This command generates a pair of Propeller profiles:
"<propeller_profile_prefix>_cc_profile.txt" and
"<propeller_profile_prefix>_ld_profile.txt".
6) Rebuild the kernel using the AutoFDO and Propeller profile files.
CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=y
CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG=y
and
$ make LLVM=1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=<autofdo_profile> \
CLANG_PROPELLER_PROFILE_PREFIX=<propeller_profile_prefix>

Enable the machine function split optimization for AutoFDO in Clang.
Machine function split (MFS) is a pass in the Clang compiler that
splits a function into hot and cold parts. The linker groups all
cold blocks across functions together. This decreases hot code
fragmentation and improves iCache and iTLB utilization.
MFS requires a profile so this is enabled only for the AutoFDO builds.

Enable -ffunction-sections by default for the AutoFDO build.
With -ffunction-sections, the compiler places each function in its own
section named .text.function_name instead of placing all functions in
the .text section. In the AutoFDO build, this allows the linker to
utilize profile information to reorganize functions for improved
utilization of iCache and iTLB.

Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Enable a series of lints, including safety-related ones, e.g. the
compiler will now warn about missing safety comments, as well as
unnecessary ones. How safety documentation is organized is a frequent
source of review comments, thus having the compiler guide new
developers on where they are expected (and where not) is very nice.
- Start using '#[expect]': an interesting feature in Rust (stabilized
in 1.81.0) that makes the compiler warn if an expected warning was
_not_ emitted. This is useful to avoid forgetting cleaning up locally
ignored diagnostics ('#[allow]'s).
- Introduce '.clippy.toml' configuration file for Clippy, the Rust
linter, which will allow us to tweak its behaviour. For instance, our
first use cases are declaring a disallowed macro and, more
importantly, enabling the checking of private items.
- Lints-related fixes and cleanups related to the items above.
- Migrate from 'receiver_trait' to 'arbitrary_self_types': to get the
kernel into stable Rust, one of the major pieces of the puzzle is the
support to write custom types that can be used as 'self', i.e. as
receivers, since the kernel needs to write types such as 'Arc' that
common userspace Rust would not. 'arbitrary_self_types' has been
accepted to become stable, and this is one of the steps required to
get there.
- Remove usage of the 'new_uninit' unstable feature.
- Use custom C FFI types. Includes a new 'ffi' crate to contain our
custom mapping, instead of using the standard library 'core::ffi'
one. The actual remapping will be introduced in a later cycle.
- Map '__kernel_{size_t,ssize_t,ptrdiff_t}' to 'usize'/'isize' instead
of 32/64-bit integers.
- Fix 'size_t' in bindgen generated prototypes of C builtins.
- Warn on bindgen < 0.69.5 and libclang >= 19.1 due to a double issue
in the projects, which we managed to trigger with the upcoming
tracepoint support. It includes a build test since some distributions
backported the fix (e.g. Debian -- thanks!). All major distributions
we list should be now OK except Ubuntu non-LTS.
'macros' crate:
- Adapt the build system to be able run the doctests there too; and
clean up and enable the corresponding doctests.
'kernel' crate:
- Add 'alloc' module with generic kernel allocator support and remove
the dependency on the Rust standard library 'alloc' and the extension
traits we used to provide fallible methods with flags.
Add the 'Allocator' trait and its implementations '{K,V,KV}malloc'.
Add the 'Box' type (a heap allocation for a single value of type 'T'
that is also generic over an allocator and considers the kernel's GFP
flags) and its shorthand aliases '{K,V,KV}Box'. Add 'ArrayLayout'
type. Add 'Vec' (a contiguous growable array type) and its shorthand
aliases '{K,V,KV}Vec', including iterator support.
For instance, now we may write code such as:
let mut v = KVec::new();
v.push(1, GFP_KERNEL)?;
assert_eq!(&v, &[1]);
Treewide, move as well old users to these new types.
- 'sync' module: add global lock support, including the
'GlobalLockBackend' trait; the 'Global{Lock,Guard,LockedBy}' types
and the 'global_lock!' macro. Add the 'Lock::try_lock' method.
- 'error' module: optimize 'Error' type to use 'NonZeroI32' and make
conversion functions public.
- 'page' module: add 'page_align' function.
- Add 'transmute' module with the existing 'FromBytes' and 'AsBytes'
traits.
- 'block::mq::request' module: improve rendered documentation.
- 'types' module: extend 'Opaque' type documentation and add simple
examples for the 'Either' types.
drm/panic:
- Clean up a series of Clippy warnings.
Documentation:
- Add coding guidelines for lints and the '#[expect]' feature.
- Add Ubuntu to the list of distributions in the Quick Start guide.

series which clean up the implementation:
- "refine mas_mab_cp()"
- "Reduce the space to be cleared for maple_big_node"
- "maple_tree: simplify mas_push_node()"
- "Following cleanup after introduce mas_wr_store_type()"
- "refine storing null"
- The series "selftests/mm: hugetlb_fault_after_madv improvements" from
David Hildenbrand fixes this selftest for s390.
- The series "introduce pte_offset_map_{ro|rw}_nolock()" from Qi Zheng
implements some rationaizations and cleanups in the page mapping code.
- The series "mm: optimize shadow entries removal" from Shakeel Butt
optimizes the file truncation code by speeding up the handling of shadow
entries.
- The series "Remove PageKsm()" from Matthew Wilcox completes the
migration of this flag over to being a folio-based flag.

Oscar Salvador implements a bunch of consolidations and cleanups in the
hugetlb code.
- The series "Do not shatter hugezeropage on wp-fault" from Dev Jain
takes away the wp-fault time practice of turning a huge zero page into
small pages. Instead we replace the whole thing with a THP. More
consistent cleaner and potentiall saves a large number of pagefaults.

* sysctl ctl_table constification
Constifying ctl_table structs prevents the modification of proc_handler
function pointers. All ctl_table struct arguments are const qualified in the
sysctl API in such a way that the ctl_table arrays being defined elsewhere
and passed through sysctl can be constified one-by-one. We kick the
constification off by qualifying user_table in kernel/ucount.c and expect all
the ctl_tables to be constified in the coming releases.
* Misc fixes
Adjust comments in two places to better reflect the code. Remove superfluous
dput calls. Remove Luis from sysctl maintainership. Replace comments about
holding a lock with calls to lockdep_assert_held.
* Testing
All these went through 0-day and they have all been in linux-next for at
least 1 month (since Oct-24). I also rand these through the sysctl selftest
for x86_64.
