Merge 7.0 Kbuild changes into kbuild-fixes
kbuild-fixes needs to be based on 6.19 to apply some fixes for
62089b8048 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg: Generate debuginfo package manually")
which landed in 6.19-rc1 but the new material of 7.0 needs fixes merged
as well.
Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>
DT core:
- Sync dtc/libfdt with upstream v1.7.2-62-ga26ef6400bd8
- Add a for_each_compatible_node_scoped() loop and convert users in
cpufreq, dmaengine, clk, cdx, powerpc and Arm
- Simplify of/platform.c with scoped loop helpers
- Add fw_devlink tracking for "mmc-pwrseq"
- Optimize fw_devlink callback code size for pinctrl-N properties
- Replace strcmp_suffix() with strends()
DT bindings:
- Support building single binding targets
- Convert google,goldfish-fb, cznic,turris-mox-rwtm, ti,prm-inst

- Provide the missing 64-bit variant of clock_getres()
This allows the extension of CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and
finally the removal of 32-bit time types from the kernel and UAPI.
- Remove the useless and broken getcpu_cache from the VDSO
The intention was to provide a trivial way to retrieve the CPU number from
the VDSO, but as the VDSO data is per process there is no way to make it
work.
- Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy()
The packed struct violates strict aliasing rules which requires to pass
-fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler. As this are scalar values
__builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores
- Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof()
The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when __beNN
types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a special
'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate the Generic
in __unqual_scalar_typeof().
Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the problem,
but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity check to sparse
builds, which validates that sparse is available and capable of handling it.
- Force inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common()
Compilers sometimes un-inline agressively, which results in function call
overhead and problems with automatic stack variable initialization.
Interestingly enough the force inlining results in smaller code than the
un-inlined variant produced by GCC when optimizing for size.

Lock debugging:
- Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context
checking, using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context
analysis features. (Marco Elver)
We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context
tracking Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which
are false positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of
false positive context tracking Sparse warnings grows to
over 5,200... On the plus side of the balance actual locking
bugs found by Sparse context analysis is also rather ... sparse:
I found only 3 such commits in the last 3 years. So the
rate of false positives and the maintenance overhead is
rather high and there appears to be no active policy in
place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move the
annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.
Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive
in trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has
a different model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by
subsystem, which results in zero warnings on all relevant
kernel builds (as far as our testing managed to cover it).
Which allowed us to enable it by default, similar to other
compiler warnings, with the expectation that there are no
warnings going forward. This enforces a zero-warnings baseline
on clang-22+ builds. (Which are still limited in distribution,
admittedly.)
Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more
subsystems and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking
can be enabled for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y
(default disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.
( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )
Rust integration updates: (Alice Ryhl, Fujita Tomonori, Boqun Feng)
- Add support for Atomic<i8/i16/bool> and replace most Rust native
AtomicBool usages with Atomic<bool>
- Clean up LockClassKey and improve its documentation
- Add missing Send and Sync trait implementation for SetOnce
- Make ARef Unpin as it is supposed to be
- Add __rust_helper to a few Rust helpers as a preparation for
helper LTO
- Inline various lock related functions to avoid additional
function calls.

The LLVM argument is documented to accept one of three forms:
* a literal '1' to use the default 'clang',
* a toolchain prefix path, ending in a trailing '/',
* a version suffix.
All other values are silently treated as '1'. If for example
the user accidentally forgets the trailing '/' of a toolchain prefix,
kbuild will unexpectedly and silently fall back to the system toolchain.
Instead report an error if the user specified an invalid value for LLVM.

The recent changes to get_unaligned() resulted in a new sparse warning:
net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: sparse: incorrect type in argument 1 (different modifiers) @@ expected void * @@ got restricted __be64 const * @@
net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: expected void *
net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: got restricted __be64 const *
The updated get_unaligned_t() uses __unqual_scalar_typeof() to get an
unqualified type. This works correctly for the compilers, but fails for
sparse when the data type is __be64 (or any other __beNN variant).
On sparse runs (C=[12]) __beNN types are annotated with
__attribute__((bitwise)).
That annotation allows sparse to detect incompatible operations on __beNN
variables, but it also prevents sparse from evaluating the _Generic() in
__unqual_scalar_typeof() and map __beNN to a unqualified scalar type, so it
ends up with the default, i.e. the original qualified type of a 'const
__beNN' pointer. That then ends up as the first pointer argument to
builtin_memcpy(), which obviously causes the above sparse warnings.
The sparse git tree supports typeof_unqual() now, which allows to use it
instead of the _Generic() based __unqual_scalar_typeof(). With that sparse
correctly evaluates the unqualified type and keeps the __beNN logic intact.
The downside is that this requires a top of tree sparse build and an old
sparse version will emit a metric ton of incomprehensible error messages
before it dies with a segfault.
Therefore implement a sanity check which validates that the checker is
available and capable of handling typeof_unqual(). Emit a warning if not so
the user can take informed action.

set before use and implement the sanity checker ]

Introduce __counted_by_ptr(), which works like __counted_by(), but for
pointer struct members.
struct foo {
int a, b, c;
char *buffer __counted_by_ptr(bytes);
short nr_bars;
struct bar *bars __counted_by_ptr(nr_bars);
size_t bytes;
};
Because "counted_by" can only be applied to pointer members in very
recent compiler versions, its application ends up needing to be distinct
from flexibe array "counted_by" annotations, hence a separate macro.
This is a reworking of Kees' previous patch [1].

Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>
Context Analysis is a language extension, which enables statically
checking that required contexts are active (or inactive), by acquiring
and releasing user-definable "context locks". An obvious application is
lock-safety checking for the kernel's various synchronization primitives
(each of which represents a "context lock"), and checking that locking
rules are not violated.
Clang originally called the feature "Thread Safety Analysis" [1]. This
was later changed and the feature became more flexible, gaining the
ability to define custom "capabilities". Its foundations can be found in
"Capability Systems" [2], used to specify the permissibility of
operations to depend on some "capability" being held (or not held).
Because the feature is not just able to express "capabilities" related
to synchronization primitives, and "capability" is already overloaded in
the kernel, the naming chosen for the kernel departs from Clang's
"Thread Safety" and "capability" nomenclature; we refer to the feature
as "Context Analysis" to avoid confusion. The internal implementation
still makes references to Clang's terminology in a few places, such as
`-Wthread-safety` being the warning option that also still appears in
diagnostic messages.
[1] https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ThreadSafetyAnalysis.html
[2] https://www.cs.cornell.edu/talc/papers/capabilities.pdf
See more details in the kernel-doc documentation added in this and
subsequent changes.

prerequisite that can be built in parallel to other recipes.
Introducing the top-level target, enables fixing this and also prepares
a possible move of gen_init_cpio from usr/ to scripts/.

This patch implements kconfig re-sync when the pahole version changes
between builds, similar to how it happens for compiler version change
via CC_VERSION_TEXT.
Define PAHOLE_VERSION in the top-level Makefile and export it for
config builds. Set CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION default to the exported
variable.
Kconfig records the PAHOLE_VERSION value in
include/config/auto.conf.cmd [1].
The Makefile includes auto.conf.cmd, so if PAHOLE_VERSION changes
between builds, make detects a dependency change and triggers
syncconfig to update the kconfig [2].
For external module builds, add a warning message in the prepare
target, similar to the existing compiler version mismatch warning.
Note that if pahole is not installed or available, PAHOLE_VERSION is
set to 0 by pahole-version.sh, so the (un)installation of pahole is
treated as a version change.
See previous discussions for context [3].

Running the full 'make dt_binding_check' is slow. A shortcut is to set
DT_SCHEMA_FILES env variable to a substring of DT schema files to test.
It both limits which examples are validated and which schemas are used
to validate the examples. This is a problem because errors from other
schemas are missed. What makes validation slow is checking all examples,
so we really just need a way to test a single example.
Add a %.yaml target to validate the schema and validate the example:
make example-schema.yaml
The behavior for 'make dt_binding_check DT_SCHEMA_FILES=example-schema'
is unchanged. Really it should mirror dtbs_check and validate all the
examples with a subset of schemas, but there are lots of users of
expecting the existing behavior.

If a tracepoint is defined but never used (TRACE_EVENT() created but no
trace_<tracepoint>() called), it can take up to or more than 5K of memory
each. This can add up as there are around a hundred unused tracepoints with
various configs. That is 500K of wasted memory.
Add a make build parameter of "UT=1" to have the build warn if an unused
tracepoint is detected in the build. This allows detection of unused
tracepoints to be upstream so that outreachy and the mentoring project can
have new developers look for fixing them, without having these warnings
suddenly show up when someone upgrades their kernel. When all known unused
tracepoints are removed, then the "UT=1" build parameter can be removed and
unused tracepoints will always warn. This will catch new unused tracepoints
after the current ones have been removed.
- Separate out elf functions from sorttable.c
Move out the ELF parsing functions from sorttable.c so that the tracing
tooling can use it.
- Add a tracepoint verifier tool to the build process
If "UT=1" is added to the kernel command line, any unused tracepoints will
trigger a warning at build time.
- Do not warn about unused tracepoints for tracepoints that are exported
There are sever cases where a tracepoint is created by the kernel and used
by modules. Since there's no easy way to detect if these are truly unused
since the users are in modules, if a tracepoint is exported, assume it
will eventually be used by a module. Note, there's not many exported
tracepoints so this should not be a problem to ignore them.

Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Add support for 'syn'.
Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a
syntax tree of Rust source code.
Currently this library is geared toward use in Rust procedural
macros, but contains some APIs that may be useful more generally.
'syn' allows us to greatly simplify writing complex macros such as
'pin-init' (Benno has already prepared the 'syn'-based version). We
will use it in the 'macros' crate too.
'syn' is the most downloaded Rust crate (according to crates.io), and
it is also used by the Rust compiler itself. While the amount of code
is substantial, there should not be many updates needed for these
crates, and even if there are, they should not be too big, e.g. +7k
-3k lines across the 3 crates in the last year.
'syn' requires two smaller dependencies: 'quote' and 'proc-macro2'.
I only modified their code to remove a third dependency
('unicode-ident') and to add the SPDX identifiers. The code can be
easily verified to exactly match upstream with the provided scripts.
They are all licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", like the other
vendored 'alloc' crate we had for a while.
Please see the merge commit with the cover letter for more context.
- Allow 'unreachable_pub' and 'clippy::disallowed_names' for doctests.
Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to do things like show public items
and use names such as 'foo'.
Nevertheless, we still try to keep examples as close to real code as
possible (this is part of why running Clippy on doctests is important
for us, e.g. for safety comments, which userspace Rust does not
support yet but we are stricter).
'kernel' crate:
- Replace our custom 'CStr' type with 'core::ffi::CStr'.
Using the standard library type reduces our custom code footprint,
and we retain needed custom functionality through an extension trait
and a new 'fmt!' macro which replaces the previous 'core' import.
This started in 6.17 and continued in 6.18, and we finally land the
replacement now. This required quite some stamina from Tamir, who
split the changes in steps to prepare for the flag day change here.
- Replace 'kernel::c_str!' with C string literals.
C string literals were added in Rust 1.77, which produce '&CStr's
(the 'core' one), so now we can write:
c"hi"
instead of:
c_str!("hi")
- Add 'num' module for numerical features.
It includes the 'Integer' trait, implemented for all primitive
integer types.
It also includes the 'Bounded' integer wrapping type: an integer
value that requires only the 'N' less significant bits of the wrapped
type to be encoded:
// An unsigned 8-bit integer, of which only the 4 LSBs are used.
let v = Bounded::<u8, 4>:🆕:<15>();
assert_eq!(v.get(), 15);
'Bounded' is useful to e.g. enforce guarantees when working with
bitfields that have an arbitrary number of bits.
Values can be constructed from simple non-constant expressions or,
for more complex ones, validated at runtime.
'Bounded' also comes with comparison and arithmetic operations (with
both their backing type and other 'Bounded's with a compatible
backing type), casts to change the backing type, extending/shrinking
and infallible/fallible conversions from/to primitives as applicable.
- 'rbtree' module: add immutable cursor ('Cursor').
It enables to use just an immutable tree reference where appropriate.
The existing fully-featured mutable cursor is renamed to 'CursorMut'.
kallsyms:
- Fix wrong "big" kernel symbol type read from procfs.
'pin-init' crate:
- A couple minor fixes (Benno asked me to pick these patches up for
him this cycle).
Documentation:
- Quick Start guide: add Debian 13 (Trixie).
Debian Stable is now able to build Linux, since Debian 13 (released
2025-08-09) packages Rust 1.85.0, which is recent enough.
We are planning to propose that the minimum supported Rust version in
Linux follows Debian Stable releases, with Debian 13 being the first
one we upgrade to, i.e. Rust 1.85.
MAINTAINERS:
- Add entry for the new 'num' module.
- Remove Alex as Rust maintainer: he hasn't had the time to contribute
for a few years now, so it is a no-op change in practice.

used by default, and nobody has missed it, least of all anybody who
actually had to look at it.
- The docs build was controlled by a complex mess of makefilese that
few dared to touch. Mauro has moved that logic into a new program
(tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper) that, with any luck at all, will
be far easier to understand and maintain.
- The get_feat.pl program, used to access information under
Documentation/features/, has been rewritten in Python, bringing an
end to the use of Perl in the docs subsystem.
- The top-level README file has been reorganized into a more
reader-friendly presentation.
- A lot of Chinese translation additions
- Typo fixes and documentation updates as usual"

Merge tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Cheaper MAY_EXEC handling for path lookup. This elides MAY_WRITE
permission checks during path lookup and adds the
IOP_FASTPERM_MAY_EXEC flag so filesystems like btrfs can avoid
expensive permission work.
- Hide dentry_cache behind runtime const machinery.
- Add German Maglione as virtiofs co-maintainer.
Cleanups:
- Tidy up and inline step_into() and walk_component() for improved
code generation.
- Re-enable IOCB_NOWAIT writes to files. This refactors file
timestamp update logic, fixing a layering bypass in btrfs when
updating timestamps on device files and improving FMODE_NOCMTIME
handling in VFS now that nfsd started using it.
- Path lookup optimizations extracting slowpaths into dedicated
routines and adding branch prediction hints for mntput_no_expire(),
fd_install(), lookup_slow(), and various other hot paths.
- Enable clang's -fms-extensions flag, requiring a JFS rename to
avoid conflicts.
- Remove spurious exports in fs/file_attr.c.
- Stop duplicating union pipe_index declaration. This depends on the
shared kbuild branch that brings in -fms-extensions support which
is merged into this branch.
- Use MD5 library instead of crypto_shash in ecryptfs.
- Use largest_zero_folio() in iomap_dio_zero().
- Replace simple_strtol/strtoul with kstrtoint/kstrtouint in init and
initrd code.
- Various typo fixes.
Fixes:
- Fix emergency sync for btrfs. Btrfs requires an explicit sync_fs()
call with wait == 1 to commit super blocks. The emergency sync path
never passed this, leaving btrfs data uncommitted during emergency
sync.
- Use local kmap in watch_queue's post_one_notification().
- Add hint prints in sb_set_blocksize() for LBS dependency on THP"

Enable GCC 16's coming "-fdiagnostics-show-context=N" option[1] to
provide enhanced diagnostic information for value-tracking warnings,
which displays the control flow chain leading to the diagnostic. This
covers our existing use of -Wrestrict and -Wstringop-overread, and
gets us closer to enabling -Warray-bounds, -Wstringop-overflow, and
-Wstringop-truncation, so we can track the rationale for the warning,
letting us more quickly identify actual issues vs what have looked in
the past like false positives. Fixes based on this work have already
been landing, e.g.:
4a6f18f286 ("net/mlx4_core: Avoid impossible mlx4_db_alloc() order value")
8a39f1c870 ("ovl: Check for NULL d_inode() in ovl_dentry_upper()")
e5f7e4e0a4 ("drm/amdgpu/atom: Work around vbios NULL offset false positive")
The context depth ("=N") provides the immediate decision path that led
to the problematic code location, showing conditional checks and branch
decisions that caused the warning. This will help us understand why
GCC's value-tracking analysis triggered the warning and makes it easier
to determine whether warnings are legitimate issues or false positives.
For example, an array bounds warning will now show the conditional
statements (like "if (i >= 4)") that established the out-of-bounds access
range, directly connecting the control flow to the warning location.
This is particularly valuable when GCC's interprocedural analysis can
generate warnings that are difficult to understand without seeing the
inferred control flow.
While my testing has shown that "=1" reports enough for finding
the origin of most bounds issues, I have used "=2" here just to be
conservative. Build time measurements with this option off, =1, and =2
are all with noise of each other, so there seems to be no harm in "turning
it up". If we need to, we can make this value configurable in the future.

With all the new files in place and ready from the new crate, enable
the support for it in the build system.
`proc_macro_byte_character` and `proc_macro_c_str_literals` were
stabilized in Rust 1.79.0 [1] and were implemented earlier than our
minimum Rust version (1.78) [2][3]. Thus just enable them instead of using
the `cfg` that `proc-macro2` uses to emulate them in older compilers.
In addition, skip formatting for this vendored crate and take the chance
to add a comment mentioning this.

The generic test for CC_CAN_LINK assumes that all architectures use -m32
and -m64 to switch between 32-bit and 64-bit compilation. This is overly
simplistic. Architectures may use other flags (-mabi, -m31, etc.) or may
also require byte order handling (-mlittle-endian, -EL). Expressing all
of the different possibilities will be very complicated and brittle.
Instead allow architectures to supply their own logic which will be
easy to understand and evolve.
Both the boolean ARCH_HAS_CC_CAN_LINK and the string ARCH_USERFLAGS need
to be implemented as kconfig does not allow the reuse of string options.
