- The most significant change is the replacement of the old kernel-doc
script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that predates the Git era)
with a Python reimplementation. That, too, is a horrifying collection of
regexes, but in a much cleaner and more maintainable structure that
integrates far better with the Sphinx build system.
This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the small
number of problems that turned up have been addressed, seemingly to
everybody's satisfaction. The Perl kernel-doc script remains in tree (as
scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a command-line option if need
be. Unless some reason to keep it around materializes, it will probably
go away in 6.17.
Credit goes to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for doing all this work.

- A handful of Chinese translations
- The usual collection of typo fixes, general updates, etc.

Boot code changes:
- A large series of changes to reorganize the x86 boot code into a better isolated
and easier to maintain base of PIC early startup code in arch/x86/boot/startup/,
by Ard Biesheuvel.
Motivation & background:
| Since commit
|
| c88d71508e ("x86/boot/64: Rewrite startup_64() in C")
|
| dated Jun 6 2017, we have been using C code on the boot path in a way
| that is not supported by the toolchain, i.e., to execute non-PIC C
| code from a mapping of memory that is different from the one provided
| to the linker. It should have been obvious at the time that this was a
| bad idea, given the need to sprinkle fixup_pointer() calls left and
| right to manipulate global variables (including non-pointer variables)
| without crashing.
|
| This C startup code has been expanding, and in particular, the SEV-SNP
| startup code has been expanding over the past couple of years, and
| grown many of these warts, where the C code needs to use special
| annotations or helpers to access global objects.

...
* New features:
- Add large stage-2 mapping support for non-protected pKVM guests,
clawing back some performance.
- Add UBSAN support to the standalone EL2 object used in nVHE/hVHE and
protected modes.
- Enable nested virtualisation support on systems that support it
(yes, it has been a long time coming), though it is disabled by
default.
* Improvements, fixes and cleanups:
- Large rework of the way KVM tracks architecture features and links
them with the effects of control bits. This ensures correctness of
emulation (the data is automatically extracted from the published
JSON files), and helps dealing with the evolution of the
architecture.
- Significant changes to the way pKVM tracks ownership of pages,
avoiding page table walks by storing the state in the hypervisor's
vmemmap. This in turn enables the THP support described above.
- New selftest checking the pKVM ownership transition rules
- Fixes for FEAT_MTE_ASYNC being accidentally advertised to guests
even if the host didn't have it.
- Fixes for the address translation emulation, which happened to be
rather buggy in some specific contexts.
- Fixes for the PMU emulation in NV contexts, decoupling PMCR_EL0.N
from the number of counters exposed to a guest and addressing a
number of issues in the process.
- Add a new selftest for the SVE host state being corrupted by a
guest.
- Keep HCR_EL2.xMO set at all times for systems running with the
kernel at EL2, ensuring that the window for interrupts is slightly
bigger, and avoiding a pretty bad erratum on the AmpereOne HW.
- Add workaround for AmpereOne's erratum AC04_CPU_23, which suffers
from a pretty bad case of TLB corruption unless accesses to HCR_EL2
are heavily synchronised.
- Add a per-VM, per-ITS debugfs entry to dump the state of the ITS
tables in a human-friendly fashion.
- and the usual random cleanups.

Merge tag 'kvmarm-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvmarm/kvmarm into HEAD
KVM/arm64 updates for 6.16
* New features:
- Add large stage-2 mapping support for non-protected pKVM guests,
clawing back some performance.
- Add UBSAN support to the standalone EL2 object used in nVHE/hVHE and
protected modes.
- Enable nested virtualisation support on systems that support it
(yes, it has been a long time coming), though it is disabled by
default.
* Improvements, fixes and cleanups:
- Large rework of the way KVM tracks architecture features and links
them with the effects of control bits. This ensures correctness of
emulation (the data is automatically extracted from the published
JSON files), and helps dealing with the evolution of the
architecture.
- Significant changes to the way pKVM tracks ownership of pages,
avoiding page table walks by storing the state in the hypervisor's
vmemmap. This in turn enables the THP support described above.
- New selftest checking the pKVM ownership transition rules
- Fixes for FEAT_MTE_ASYNC being accidentally advertised to guests
even if the host didn't have it.
- Fixes for the address translation emulation, which happened to be
rather buggy in some specific contexts.
- Fixes for the PMU emulation in NV contexts, decoupling PMCR_EL0.N
from the number of counters exposed to a guest and addressing a
number of issues in the process.
- Add a new selftest for the SVE host state being corrupted by a
guest.
- Keep HCR_EL2.xMO set at all times for systems running with the
kernel at EL2, ensuring that the window for interrupts is slightly
bigger, and avoiding a pretty bad erratum on the AmpereOne HW.
- Add workaround for AmpereOne's erratum AC04_CPU_23, which suffers
from a pretty bad case of TLB corruption unless accesses to HCR_EL2
are heavily synchronised.
- Add a per-VM, per-ITS debugfs entry to dump the state of the ITS
tables in a human-friendly fashion.
- and the usual random cleanups.
Rust 1.87 (released on 2025-05-15) compiles core library with edition
2024 instead of 2021 [1]. Ensure that the edition matches libcore's
expectation to avoid potential breakage.
[ J3m3 reported in Zulip [2] that the `rust-analyzer` target was
broken after this patch -- indeed, we need to avoid `core-cfgs`
since those are passed to the `rust-analyzer` target.
So, instead, I tweaked the patch to create a new `core-edition`
variable and explicitly mention the `--edition` flag instead of
reusing `core-cfg`s.
In addition, pass a new argument using this new variable to
`generate_rust_analyzer.py` so that we set the right edition there.
By the way, for future reference: the `filter-out` change is needed
for Rust < 1.87, since otherwise we would skip the `--edition=2021`
we just added, ending up with no edition flag, and thus the compiler
would default to the 2015 one.

Explicitly adding MODULE_IMPORT_NS("module:...") is not allowed.
Currently, this is only checked at run time. That is, when such a
module is loaded, an error message like the following is shown:
foo: module tries to import module namespace: module:bar
Obviously, checking this at compile time improves usability.
In such a case, modpost will report the following error at compile time:

In rare situations where distributions must make significant
changes to otherwise opaque data structures that have
inadvertently been included in the published ABI, keeping
symbol versions stable using the existing kABI macros can
become tedious.
For example, Android decided to switch to a newer io_uring
implementation in the 5.10 GKI kernel "to resolve a huge number
of potential, and known, problems with the codebase," requiring
"horrible hacks" with genksyms:
"A number of the io_uring structures get used in other core
kernel structures, only as "opaque" pointers, so there is
not any real ABI breakage. But, due to the visibility of
the structures going away, the CRC values of many scheduler
variables and functions were changed."
-- https://r.android.com/2425293
While these specific changes probably could have been hidden
from gendwarfksyms using the existing kABI macros, this may not
always be the case.
Add a last resort kABI rule that allows distribution
maintainers to fully override a type string for a symbol or a
type. Also add a more informative error message in case we find
a non-existent type references when calculating versions.

A data structure can be partially opaque to modules if its
allocation is handled by the core kernel, and modules only need
to access some of its members. In this situation, it's possible
to append new members to the structure without breaking the ABI,
as long as the layout for the original members remains unchanged.
For example, consider the following struct:
struct s {
unsigned long a;
void *p;
};
gendwarfksyms --stable --dump-dies produces the following type
expansion:
variable structure_type s {
member base_type long unsigned int byte_size(8) encoding(7) a
data_member_location(0) ,
member pointer_type {
base_type void
} byte_size(8) p data_member_location(8)
} byte_size(16)
To append new members, we can use the KABI_IGNORE() macro to
hide them from gendwarfksyms --stable:
struct s {
/* old members with unchanged layout */
unsigned long a;
void *p;
/* new members not accessed by modules */
KABI_IGNORE(0, unsigned long n);
};
However, we can't hide the fact that adding new members changes
the struct size, as seen in the updated type string:
variable structure_type s {
member base_type long unsigned int byte_size(8) encoding(7) a
data_member_location(0) ,
member pointer_type {
base_type void
} byte_size(8) p data_member_location(8)
} byte_size(24)
In order to support this use case, add a kABI rule that makes it
possible to override the byte_size attribute for types:
/*
* struct s allocation is handled by the kernel, so
* appending new members without changing the original
* layout won't break the ABI.
*/
KABI_BYTE_SIZE(s, 16);
This results in a type string that's unchanged from the original
and therefore, won't change versions for symbols that reference
the changed structure.

Macros and auto-generated code should use absolute paths, `::core::...`
and `::kernel::...`, for core and kernel references.
This prevents issues where user-defined modules named `core` or `kernel`
could be picked up instead of the `core` or `kernel` crates.
Thus clean some references up.

Using lx-symbols during s390 early boot fails with:
Error occurred in Python: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xcb in position 0: invalid continuation byte
The reason is that s390 decompressor's startup_kernel() does not create
vmcoreinfo note, and sets vmcore_info to kernel's physical base. This
confuses get_vmcore_s390().
Fix by handling this special case. Extract vm_layout.kaslr_offset from
the kernel image in physical memory, which is placed there by the
decompressor using the __bootdata_preserved mechanism, and generate a
synthetic vmcoreinfo note from it.

Patch series "scripts/gdb/symbols: determine KASLR offset on s390 during
early boot".
I noticed that debugging s390 early boot using the support I introduced in
commit 28939c3e99 ("scripts/gdb/symbols: determine KASLR offset on
s390") does not work.
The reason is that decompressor does not provide the vmcoreinfo note, so
KASLR offset needs to be extracted in a different way, which this series
implements. Patches 1-2 are trivial refactorings, and patch 3 is the
implementation.
This patch (of 3):
Move the code that determines the current vmlinux file into a separate
function. It will be useful later in order to analyze the kernel image in
physical memory during s390 early boot.

Silencing the instances from typecheck.h is difficult because '= {}' is
not available in older but supported compilers and '= {0}' would cause
warnings about a literal 0 being treated as NULL. While it might be
possible to come up with a local hack to silence the warning for
clang-21+, it may not be worth it since -Wuninitialized will still
trigger if an uninitialized const variable is actually used.
In all audited cases of the "field" variant of the warning, the members
are either not used in the particular call path, modified through other
means such as memset() / memcpy() because the containing object is not
const, or are within a union with other non-const members.
Since this warning does not appear to have a high signal to noise ratio,
just disable it.

Patch series "scripts/gdb: Fixes related to lx_per_cpu()".
These patches (1) fix kgdb detection on systems featuring a single CPU and
(2) update the documentation to reflect the current usage of lx_per_cpu()
and update an outdated example of its usage.
This patch (of 2):
When requested the list of threads via qfThreadInfo, gdb_cmd_query in
kernel/debug/gdbstub.c first returns "shadow" threads for CPUs followed by
the actual tasks in the system. Extended qThreadExtraInfo queries yield
"shadowCPU%d" as the name for the CPU core threads.
This behavior is used by get_gdbserver_type() to probe for KGDB by
matching the name for the thread 2 against "shadowCPU". This breaks down
on single-core systems, where thread 2 is the first nonshadow thread.
Request the name for thread 1 instead.
As GDB assigns thread IDs in the order of their appearance, it is safe to

We track the details of which Rust features we use at our usual "live
list" [1] (and its sub-lists), but in light of a discussion in the LWN
article [2], it would help to clarify it in the source code.
In particular, we are very close to rely only on stable Rust language-wise
-- essentially only two language features remain (including the `kernel`
crate).
Thus add some details in both the feature list of the `kernel` crate as
well as the list of allowed features.
This does not over every single feature, and there are quite a few
non-language features that we use too. To have the full picture, please
refer to [1].

[ Improved comments with suggestions from the list. - Miguel ]
Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
When building the randomized replacement tree of struct members, the
randstruct GCC plugin would insert, as the first member, a 0-sized void
member. This appears as though it was done to catch non-designated
("unnamed") static initializers, which wouldn't be stable since they
depend on the original struct layout order.
This was accomplished by having the side-effect of the "void member"
tripping an assert in GCC internals (count_type_elements) if the member
list ever needed to be counted (e.g. for figuring out the order of members
during a non-designated initialization), which would catch impossible type
(void) in the struct:
security/landlock/fs.c: In function ‘hook_file_ioctl_common’:
security/landlock/fs.c:1745:61: internal compiler error: in count_type_elements, at expr.cc:7075
1745 | .u.op = &(struct lsm_ioctlop_audit) {
| ^
static HOST_WIDE_INT
count_type_elements (const_tree type, bool for_ctor_p)
{
switch (TREE_CODE (type))
...
case VOID_TYPE:
default:
gcc_unreachable ();
}
}
However this is a redundant safety measure since randstruct uses the
__designated_initializer attribute both internally and within the
__randomized_layout attribute macro so that this would be enforced
by the compiler directly even when randstruct was not enabled (via
-Wdesignated-init).
A recent change in Landlock ended up tripping the same member counting
routine when using a full-struct copy initializer as part of an anonymous
initializer. This, however, is a false positive as the initializer is
copying between identical structs (and hence identical layouts). The
"path" member is "struct path", a randomized struct, and is being copied
to from another "struct path", the "f_path" member:
landlock_log_denial(landlock_cred(file->f_cred), &(struct landlock_request) {
.type = LANDLOCK_REQUEST_FS_ACCESS,
.audit = {
.type = LSM_AUDIT_DATA_IOCTL_OP,
.u.op = &(struct lsm_ioctlop_audit) {
.path = file->f_path,
.cmd = cmd,
},
},
...
As can be seen with the coming randstruct KUnit test, there appears to
be no behavioral problems with this kind of initialization when the void
member is removed from the randstruct GCC plugin, so remove it.

Variable Length Arrays (VLAs) on the stack must not be used in the kernel.
Function parameter VLAs[1] should be usable, but -Wvla will warn for
those. For example, this will produce a warning but it is not using a
stack VLA:
int something(size_t n, int array[n]) { ...
Clang has no way yet to distinguish between the VLA types[2], so
depend on GCC for now to keep stack VLAs out of the tree by using GCC's
-Wvla-larger-than=N option (though GCC may split -Wvla similarly[3] to
how Clang is planning to).
While GCC 8+ supports -Wvla-larger-than, only 9+ supports ...=0[4],
so use -Wvla-larger-than=1. Adjust mm/kasan/Makefile to remove it from
CFLAGS (GCC <9 appears unable to disable the warning correctly[5]).
The VLA usage in lib/test_ubsan.c was removed in commit 9d7ca61b13
("lib/test_ubsan.c: VLA no longer used in kernel") so the lib/Makefile
disabling of VLA checking can be entirely removed.

Commit a3e8fe814a ("x86/build: Raise the minimum GCC version to 8.1")
raised the minimum compiler version as enforced by Kbuild to gcc-8.1
and clang-15 for x86.
This is actually the same gcc version that has been discussed as the
minimum for all architectures several times in the past, with little
objection. A previous concern was the kernel for SLE15-SP7 needing to
be built with gcc-7. As this ended up still using linux-6.4 and there
is no plan for an SP8, this is no longer a problem.
Change it for all architectures and adjust the documentation accordingly.
A few version checks can be removed in the process. The binutils
version 2.30 is the lowest version used in combination with gcc-8 on
common distros, so use that as the corresponding minimum.

This was triggered by one of my mis-uses causing odd build warnings on
sparc in linux-next, but while figuring out why the "obviously correct"
use of cc-option caused such odd breakage, I found eight other cases of
the same thing in the tree.
The root cause is that 'cc-option' doesn't work for checking negative
warning options (ie things like '-Wno-stringop-overflow') because gcc
will silently accept options it doesn't recognize, and so 'cc-option'
ends up thinking they are perfectly fine.
And it all works, until you have a situation where _another_ warning is
emitted. At that point the compiler will go "Hmm, maybe the user
intended to disable this warning but used that wrong option that I
didn't recognize", and generate a warning for the unrecognized negative
option.
Which explains why we have several cases of this in the tree: the
'cc-option' test really doesn't work for this situation, but most of the
time it simply doesn't matter that ity doesn't work.
The reason my recently added case caused problems on sparc was pointed
out by Thomas Weißschuh: the sparc build had a previous explicit warning
that then triggered the new one.
I think the best fix for this would be to make 'cc-option' a bit smarter
about this sitation, possibly by adding an intentional warning to the
test case that then triggers the unrecognized option warning reliably.
But the short-term fix is to replace 'cc-option' with an existing helper
designed for this exact case: 'cc-disable-warning', which picks the
negative warning but uses the positive form for testing the compiler
support.

%p4ch Host byte order

allow printing LSByte-first FourCCs stored in host endian order
(other than the hex form being in character order, not the integer
value).

Introduce git-resolve.sh, a tool that resolves short git commit IDs to their
full SHA-1 hash. This is particularly useful for navigating references in commit
messages and verifying Fixes tags.
When faced with ambiguous commit IDs or imprecise references in messages,
this tool can help by resolving commit hashes based on not just the ID
itself but also the commit subject, making it more robust than standard
git rev-parse.
This is especially valuable for maintainers who need to verify Fixes tags
or cross-reference commits. Unlike proposals to add dates to Fixes tags
(which would break existing tooling), this script provides a way to
disambiguate commits without changing the established tag format.
The script includes several features:
- Resolves short commit IDs to full SHA-1 hashes
- Uses commit subjects to disambiguate between multiple potential matches
- Supports wildcard patterns in subjects with ellipsis (...)
- Provides a force mode to attempt resolution by subject when ID lookup fails
- Includes comprehensive self-tests

GNU Make 4.3 changed the behavior of `#` inside commands in commit
c6966b323811 ("[SV 20513] Un-escaped # are not comments in function
invocations"):
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
thus a call such as:
foo := $(shell echo '#')
is legal. Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
foo := $(shell echo '\#')
Now this latter will resolve to "\#". If you want to write makefiles
portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
H := \#
foo := $(shell echo '$H')
This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.
Unlike other commits in the kernel about this issue, such as commit
633174a704 ("lib/raid6/test/Makefile: Use $(pound) instead of \#
for Make 4.3"), that fixed the issue for newer GNU Makes, in our case
it was the opposite, i.e. we need to fix it for the older ones: someone
building with e.g. 4.2.1 gets the following error:
scripts/Makefile.compiler:81: *** unterminated call to function 'call': missing ')'. Stop.
Thus use the existing variable to fix it.

If KASAN is enabled, and one runs in a clean repository e.g.:
make LLVM=1 prepare
make LLVM=1 prepare
Then the Rust code gets rebuilt, which should not happen.
The reason is some of the LLVM KASAN `rustc` flags are added in the
second run:
-Cllvm-args=-asan-instrumentation-with-call-threshold=10000
-Cllvm-args=-asan-stack=0
-Cllvm-args=-asan-globals=1
-Cllvm-args=-asan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix=1
Further runs do not rebuild Rust because the flags do not change anymore.
Rebuilding like that in the second run is bad, even if this just happens
with KASAN enabled, but missing flags in the first one is even worse.
The root issue is that we pass, for some architectures and for the moment,
a generated `target.json` file. That file is not ready by the time `rustc`
gets called for the flag test, and thus the flag test fails just because
the file is not available, e.g.:
$ ... --target=./scripts/target.json ... -Cllvm-args=...
error: target file "./scripts/target.json" does not exist
There are a few approaches we could take here to solve this. For instance,
we could ensure that every time that the config is rebuilt, we regenerate
the file and recompute the flags. Or we could use the LLVM version to
check for these flags, instead of testing the flag (which may have other
advantages, such as allowing us to detect renames on the LLVM side).
However, it may be easier than that: `rustc` is aware of the `-Cllvm-args`
regardless of the `--target` (e.g. I checked that the list printed
is the same, plus that I can check for these flags even if I pass
a completely unrelated target), and thus we can just eliminate the
dependency completely.
Thus filter out the target.
This does mean that `rustc-option` cannot be used to test a flag that
requires the right target, but we don't have other users yet, it is a
minimal change and we want to get rid of custom targets in the future.
We could only filter in the case `target.json` is used, to make it work
in more cases, but then it would be harder to notice that it may not
work in a couple architectures.

DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd ("MAINTAINERS: dccp:
move Gerrit Renker to CREDITS"), which noted that the last maintainer
had been inactive for five years.
In recent years, it has become a playground for syzbot, and most changes
to DCCP have been odd bug fixes triggered by syzbot. Apart from that,
the only changes have been driven by treewide or networking API updates
or adjustments related to TCP.
Thus, in 2023, we announced we would remove DCCP in 2025 via commit
b144fcaf46 ("dccp: Print deprecation notice.").
Since then, only one individual has contacted the netdev mailing list. [0]
There is ongoing research for Multipath DCCP. The repository is hosted
on GitHub [1], and development is not taking place through the upstream
community. While the repository is published under the GPLv2 license,
the scheduling part remains proprietary, with a LICENSE file [2] stating:
"This is not Open Source software."
The researcher mentioned a plan to address the licensing issue, upstream
the patches, and step up as a maintainer, but there has been no further
communication since then.
Maintaining DCCP for a decade without any real users has become a burden.
Therefore, it's time to remove it.
Removing DCCP will also provide significant benefits to TCP. It allows
us to freely reorganize the layout of struct inet_connection_sock, which
is currently shared with DCCP, and optimize it to reduce the number of
cachelines accessed in the TCP fast path.
Note that we keep DCCP netfilter modules as requested. [3]

Maintaining kernel-doc has been a challenge, as there aren't many
perl developers among maintainers. Also, the logic there is too
complex. Having lots of global variables and using pure functions
doesn't help.
Rewrite the script in Python, placing most global variables
inside classes. This should help maintaining the script in long
term.
It also allows a better integration with kernel-doc Sphinx
extension in the future.
I opted to keep this version as close as possible to what we
have already in Perl. There are some differences though:
1. There is one regular expression that required a rewrite:
/\bSTRUCT_GROUP(\(((?:(?>[^)(]+)|(?1))*)\))[^;]*;/
As this one uses two features that aren't available by the native
Python regular expression module (re):
- recursive patterns: ?1
- atomic grouping (?>...)
Rewrite it to use a much simpler regular expression:
/\bSTRUCT_GROUP\(([^\)]+)\)[^;]*;/
Extra care should be taken when validating this script, as such
replacement might cause some regressions.
2. The filters are now applied only during output generation.
In particular, "nosymbol" argument is only handled there.
It means that, if the same file is processed twice for
different symbols, the warnings will be duplicated.
I opted to use this behavior as it allows the Sphinx extension
to read the file(s) only once, and apply the filtering only
when producing the ReST output. This hopefully will help
to speed up doc generation
3. This version can handle multiple files and multiple directories.
So, if one just wants to produce a big output with everything
inside a file, this could be done with
$ time ./scripts/kernel-doc.py -man . 2>/dev/null >new
real 0m54.592s
user 0m53.345s
sys 0m0.997s
4. I tried to replicate as much as possible the same arguments
from kernel-doc, with about the same behavior, for the
command line parameters starting with a single dash (-parameter).
I also added one letter aliases for each parameter, and a
--parameter (sometimes with a better name).
5. There are some sutile nuances between how Perl handles
certain regular expressions. In special, the qr operatior,
which compiles a regular expression also works as a
non-capturing group. It means that some regexes like
this one:
my $type1 = qr{[\w\s]+};
needs to be mapped as:
type1 = r'(?:[\w\s]+)?'

... and don't error out so hard on missing module descriptions.
Before commit 6c6c1fc09d ("modpost: require a MODULE_DESCRIPTION()")
we used to warn about missing module descriptions, but only when
building with extra warnigns (ie 'W=1').
After that commit the warning became an unconditional hard error.
And it turns out not all modules have been converted despite the claims
to the contrary. As reported by Damian Tometzki, the slub KUnit test
didn't have a module description, and apparently nobody ever really
noticed.
The reason nobody noticed seems to be that the slub KUnit tests get
disabled by SLUB_TINY, which also ends up disabling a lot of other code,
both in tests and in slub itself. And so anybody doing full build tests
didn't actually see this failre.
So let's disable SLUB_TINY for build-only tests, since it clearly ends
up limiting build coverage. Also turn the missing module descriptions
error back into a warning, but let's keep it around for non-'W=1'
builds.

The rpm-pkg make target currently suffers from a few issues related to
debuginfo:
1. debuginfo for things built into the kernel (vmlinux) is not available
in any RPM produced by make rpm-pkg. This makes using tools like
systemtap against a make rpm-pkg kernel impossible.
2. debug source for the kernel is not available. This means that
commands like 'disas /s' in gdb, which display source intermixed with
assembly, can only print file names/line numbers which then must be
painstakingly resolved to actual source in a separate editor.
3. debuginfo for modules is available, but it remains bundled with the
.ko files that contain module code, in the main kernel RPM. This is a
waste of space for users who do not need to debug the kernel (i.e.
most users).
Address all of these issues by additionally building a debuginfo RPM
when the kernel configuration allows for it, in line with standard
patterns followed by RPM distributors. With these changes:
1. systemtap now works (when these changes are backported to 6.11, since
systemtap lags a bit behind in compatibility), as verified by the
following simple test script:
# stap -e 'probe kernel.function("do_sys_open").call { printf("%s\n", $$parms); }'
dfd=0xffffffffffffff9c filename=0x7fe18800b160 flags=0x88800 mode=0x0
...
2. disas /s works correctly in gdb, with source and disassembly
interspersed:
# gdb vmlinux --batch -ex 'disas /s blk_op_str'
Dump of assembler code for function blk_op_str:
block/blk-core.c:
125 {
0xffffffff814c8740 <+0>: endbr64
127
128 if (op < ARRAY_SIZE(blk_op_name) && blk_op_name[op])
0xffffffff814c8744 <+4>: mov $0xffffffff824a7378,%rax
0xffffffff814c874b <+11>: cmp $0x23,%edi
0xffffffff814c874e <+14>: ja 0xffffffff814c8768 <blk_op_str+40>
0xffffffff814c8750 <+16>: mov %edi,%edi
126 const char *op_str = "UNKNOWN";
0xffffffff814c8752 <+18>: mov $0xffffffff824a7378,%rdx
127
128 if (op < ARRAY_SIZE(blk_op_name) && blk_op_name[op])
0xffffffff814c8759 <+25>: mov -0x7dfa0160(,%rdi,8),%rax
126 const char *op_str = "UNKNOWN";
0xffffffff814c8761 <+33>: test %rax,%rax
0xffffffff814c8764 <+36>: cmove %rdx,%rax
129 op_str = blk_op_name[op];
130
131 return op_str;
132 }
0xffffffff814c8768 <+40>: jmp 0xffffffff81d01360 <__x86_return_thunk>
End of assembler dump.
3. The size of the main kernel package goes down substantially,
especially if many modules are built (quite typical). Here is a
comparison of installed size of the kernel package (configured with
allmodconfig, dwarf4 debuginfo, and module compression turned off)
before and after this patch:
# rpm -qi kernel-6.13* | grep -E '^(Version|Size)'
Version : 6.13.0postpatch+
Size : 1382874089
Version : 6.13.0prepatch+
Size : 17870795887
This is a ~92% size reduction.
Note that a debuginfo package can only be produced if the following
configs are set:
- CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
- CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS=n
- CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT=n
The first of these is obvious - we can't produce debuginfo if the build
does not generate it. The second two requirements can in principle be
removed, but doing so is difficult with the current approach, which uses
a generic rpmbuild script find-debuginfo.sh that processes all packaged
executables. If we want to remove those requirements the best path
forward is likely to add some debuginfo extraction/installation logic to
the modules_install target (controllable by flags). That way, it's
easier to operate on modules before they're compressed, and the logic
can be reused by all packaging targets.

The scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh script requires an existing
$INITFILE (or the $1 argument) as a base file for merging Kconfig
fragments. However, an empty $INITFILE can serve as an initial starting
point, later referenced by the KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG Makefile variable
if -m is not used. This variable can point to any configuration file
containing preset config symbols (the merged output) as stated in
Documentation/kbuild/kconfig.rst. When -m is used $INITFILE will
contain just the merge output requiring the user to run make (i.e.
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=<$INITFILE> make <allnoconfig/alldefconfig> or make
olddefconfig).
Instead of failing when `$INITFILE` is missing, create an empty file and
use it as the starting point for merges.

- Fix build error when CONFIG_PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS is not enabled
The tracing of arguments in the function tracer depends on some
functions that are only defined when PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS is enabled.
In fact, PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS also depends on all the same configs
as the function argument tracing requires. Just have the function
argument tracing depend on PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS.
- Free module_delta for persistent ring buffer instance
When an instance holds the persistent ring buffer, it allocates
a helper array to hold the deltas between where modules are loaded
on the last boot and the current boot. This array needs to be freed
when the instance is freed.
- Add cond_resched() to loop in ftrace_graph_set_hash()
The hash functions in ftrace loop over every function that can be
enabled by ftrace. This can be 50,000 functions or more. This
loop is known to trigger soft lockup warnings and requires a
cond_resched(). The loop in ftrace_graph_set_hash() was missing it.
- Fix the event format verifier to include "%*p.." arguments
To prevent events from dereferencing stale pointers that can
happen if a trace event uses a dereferece pointer to something
that was not copied into the ring buffer and can be freed by the
time the trace is read, a verifier is called. At boot or module
load, the verifier scans the print format string for pointers
that can be dereferenced and it checks the arguments to make sure
they do not contain something that can be freed. The "%*p" was
not handled, which would add another argument and cause the verifier
to not only not verify this pointer, but it will look at the wrong
argument for every pointer after that.
- Fix mcount sorttable building for different endian type target
When modifying the ELF file to sort the mcount_loc table in the
sorttable.c code, the endianess of the file and the host is used
to determine if the bytes need to be swapped when calculations are
done. A change was made to the sorting of the mcount_loc that read
the values from the ELF file into an array and the swap happened
on the filling of the array. But one of the calculations of the
array still did the swap when it did not need to. This caused building
on a little endian machine for a big endian target to not find
the mcount function in the 'nm' table and it zeroed it out, causing
there to be no functions available to trace.
- Add goto out_unlock jump to rv_register_monitor() on error path
One of the error paths in rv_register_monitor() just returned the
error when it should have jumped to the out_unlock label to release
the mutex.

Kernel cross-compilation with BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT produces zeroed
mcount values if the build-host endianness does not match the ELF
file endianness.
The mcount values array is converted from ELF file
endianness to build-host endianness during initialization in
fill_relocs()/fill_addrs(). Avoid extra conversion of these values during
weak-function zeroing; otherwise, they do not match nm-parsed addresses
and all mcount values are zeroed out.

Similar to GCOV, KCOV can leave behind dead code and undefined behavior.
Warnings related to those should be ignored.
The previous commit:
6b023c7842 ("objtool: Silence more KCOV warnings")
... only did so for CONFIG_CGOV_KERNEL. Also do it for CONFIG_KCOV, but
for real this time.
Fixes the following warning:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: synaptics_report_mt_data: unexpected end of section .text.synaptics_report_mt_data

Because of different crate names ("pin-init" and "pin_init") passed to
"append_crate" and "append_crate_with_generated", the script fails with
"KeyError: 'pin-init'".
To overcome the issue, pass the same name to both functions.

Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Extract the 'pin-init' API from the 'kernel' crate and make it into
a standalone crate.
In order to do this, the contents are rearranged so that they can
easily be kept in sync with the version maintained out-of-tree that
other projects have started to use too (or plan to, like QEMU).
This will reduce the maintenance burden for Benno, who will now have
his own sub-tree, and will simplify future expected changes like the
move to use 'syn' to simplify the implementation.
- Add '#[test]'-like support based on KUnit.
We already had doctests support based on KUnit, which takes the
examples in our Rust documentation and runs them under KUnit.
Now, we are adding the beginning of the support for "normal" tests,
similar to those the '#[test]' tests in userspace Rust. For instance:
#[kunit_tests(my_suite)]
mod tests {
#[test]
fn my_test() {
assert_eq!(1 + 1, 2);
}
}
Unlike with doctests, the 'assert*!'s do not map to the KUnit
assertion APIs yet.
- Check Rust signatures at compile time for functions called from C by
name.
In particular, introduce a new '#[export]' macro that can be placed
in the Rust function definition. It will ensure that the function
declaration on the C side matches the signature on the Rust function:
#[export]
pub unsafe extern "C" fn my_function(a: u8, b: i32) -> usize {
// ...
}
The macro essentially forces the compiler to compare the types of
the actual Rust function and the 'bindgen'-processed C signature.
These cases are rare so far. In the future, we may consider
introducing another tool, 'cbindgen', to generate C headers
automatically. Even then, having these functions explicitly marked
may be a good idea anyway.
- Enable the 'raw_ref_op' Rust feature: it is already stable, and
allows us to use the new '&raw' syntax, avoiding a couple macros.
After everyone has migrated, we will disallow the macros.
- Pass the correct target to 'bindgen' on Usermode Linux.
- Fix 'rusttest' build in macOS.
'kernel' crate:
- New 'hrtimer' module: add support for setting up intrusive timers
without allocating when starting the timer. Add support for
'Pin<Box<_>>', 'Arc<_>', 'Pin<&_>' and 'Pin<&mut _>' as pointer types
for use with timer callbacks. Add support for setting clock source
and timer mode.
- New 'dma' module: add a simple DMA coherent allocator abstraction and
a test sample driver.
- 'list' module: make the linked list 'Cursor' point between elements,
rather than at an element, which is more convenient to us and allows
for cursors to empty lists; and document it with examples of how to
perform common operations with the provided methods.
- 'str' module: implement a few traits for 'BStr' as well as the
'strip_prefix()' method.
- 'sync' module: add 'Arc::as_ptr'.
- 'alloc' module: add 'Box::into_pin'.
- 'error' module: extend the 'Result' documentation, including a few
examples on different ways of handling errors, a warning about using
methods that may panic, and links to external documentation.
'macros' crate:
- 'module' macro: add the 'authors' key to support multiple authors.
The original key will be kept until everyone has migrated.
Documentation:
- Add error handling sections.
MAINTAINERS:
- Add Danilo Krummrich as reviewer of the Rust "subsystem".
- Add 'RUST [PIN-INIT]' entry with Benno Lossin as maintainer. It has
its own sub-tree.
- Add sub-tree for 'RUST [ALLOC]'.
- Add 'DMA MAPPING HELPERS DEVICE DRIVER API [RUST]' entry with Abdiel
Janulgue as primary maintainer. It will go through the sub-tree of
the 'RUST [ALLOC]' entry.
- Add 'HIGH-RESOLUTION TIMERS [RUST]' entry with Andreas Hindborg as
maintainer. It has its own sub-tree.
And a few other cleanups and improvements.

- Add option traceoff_after_boot
In order to debug kernel boot, it sometimes is helpful to enable tracing
via the kernel command line. Unfortunately, by the time the login prompt
appears, the trace is overwritten by the init process and other user space
start up applications. Adding a "traceoff_after_boot" will disable tracing
when the kernel passes control to init which will allow developers to be
able to see the traces that occurred during boot.
- Clean up the mmflags macros that display the GFP flags in trace events
The macros to print the GFP flags for trace events had a bit of
duplication. The code was restructured to remove duplication and in the
process it also adds some flags that were missed before.
- Removed some dead code and scripts/draw_functrace.py
draw_functrace.py hasn't worked in years and as nobody complained
about it, remove it.
- Constify struct event_trigger_ops
The event_trigger_ops is just a structure that has function pointers that
are assigned when the variables are created. These variables should all be
constants.
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

- Removed some dead code and scripts/draw_functrace.py
draw_functrace.py hasn't worked in years and as nobody complained
about it, remove it.
- Constify struct event_trigger_ops
The event_trigger_ops is just a structure that has function pointers
that are assigned when the variables are created. These variables
should all be constants.
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

- Implement arm64 build time sorting of the mcount location table
When gcc is used to build arm64, the mcount_loc section is all zeros in
the vmlinux elf file. The addresses are stored in the Elf_Rela location.
To sort at build time, an array is allocated and the addresses are added
to it via the content of the mcount_loc section as well as he Elf_Rela
data. After sorting, the information is put back into the Elf_Rela which
now has the section sorted.
- Make sorting of mcount location table for arm64 work with clang as well
When clang is used, the mcount_loc section contains the addresses, unlike
the gcc build. An array is still created and the sorting works for both
methods.
- Remove weak functions from the mcount_loc section
Have the sorttable code pass in the data of functions defined via nm -S
which shows the functions as well as their sizes. Using this information
the sorttable code can determine if a function in the mcount_loc section
was weak and overridden. If the function is not found, it is set to be
zero. On boot, when the mcount_loc section is read and the ftrace table is
created, if the address in the mcount_loc is not in the kernel core text
then it is removed and not added to the ftrace_filter_functions (the
functions that can be attached by ftrace callbacks).
- Update and fix the reporting of how much data is used for ftrace functions
On boot, a report of how many pages were used by the ftrace table as well
as how they were grouped (the table holds a list of sections that are
groups of pages that were able to be allocated). The removing of the weak
functions required the accounting to be updated.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
(IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls).
- Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.
- Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked)
in BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.
- Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
Rx via io_uring.
- Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.
- Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream performance
up to 2x.
- Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching
for an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock.
Bring an additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.
- Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.
- Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
ping flood.
- Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.
- Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
identify network namespaces and their roles.
There are up to 4 namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns
pointer arguments, interpreted differently based on context.
- Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.
- Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout
in TCP.
- Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.
- Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.
- Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP
sockets.
- Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin users.
- Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack.
- Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols
which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a module.
- Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar
to normal bridging.
- Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels.
- netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name
to messages as metadata

This commit allows building ARMv7 kernels with Rust support.
The rust core library expects some __eabi_... functions
that are not implemented in the kernel.
Those functions are some float operations and __aeabi_uldivmod.
For now those are implemented with define_panicking_intrinsics!.
This is based on the code by Sven Van Asbroeck from the original
rust branch and inspired by the AArch version by Jamie Cunliffe.
I have tested the rust samples and a custom simple MMIO module
on hardware (De1SoC FPGA + Arm A9 CPU).

Another set of improvements to the kernel's CRC (cyclic redundancy
check) code:
- Rework the CRC64 library functions to be directly optimized, like what
I did last cycle for the CRC32 and CRC-T10DIF library functions.
- Rewrite the x86 PCLMULQDQ-optimized CRC code, and add VPCLMULQDQ
support and acceleration for crc64_be and crc64_nvme.
- Rewrite the riscv Zbc-optimized CRC code, and add acceleration for
crc_t10dif, crc64_be, and crc64_nvme.
- Remove crc_t10dif and crc64_rocksoft from the crypto API, since they
are no longer needed there.
- Rename crc64_rocksoft to crc64_nvme, as the old name was incorrect.
- Add kunit test cases for crc64_nvme and crc7.
- Eliminate redundant functions for calculating the Castagnoli CRC32,
settling on just crc32c().
- Remove unnecessary prompts from some of the CRC kconfig options.
- Further optimize the x86 crc32c code.

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
- Add additional SELinux access controls for kernel file reads/loads
The SELinux kernel file read/load access controls were never updated
beyond the initial kernel module support, this pull request adds
support for firmware, kexec, policies, and x.509 certificates.
- Add support for wildcards in network interface names
There are a number of userspace tools which auto-generate network
interface names using some pattern of <XXXX>-<NN> where <XXXX> is a
fixed string, e.g. "podman", and <NN> is a increasing counter.
Supporting wildcards in the SELinux policy for network interfaces
simplifies the policy associted with these interfaces.
- Fix a potential problem in the kernel read file SELinux code
SELinux should always check the file label in the
security_kernel_read_file() LSM hook, regardless of if the file is
being read in chunks. Unfortunately, the existing code only
considered the file label on the first chunk; this pull request fixes
this problem.
There is more detail in the individual commit, but thankfully the
existing code didn't expose a bug due to multi-stage reads only
taking place in one driver, and that driver loading a file type that
isn't targeted by the SELinux policy.
- Fix the subshell error handling in the example policy loader
Minor fix to SELinux example policy loader in scripts/selinux due to
an undesired interaction with subshells and errexit.
* tag 'selinux-pr-20250323' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux:
selinux: get netif_wildcard policycap from policy instead of cache
selinux: support wildcard network interface names
selinux: Chain up tool resolving errors in install_policy.sh
selinux: add permission checks for loading other kinds of kernel files
selinux: always check the file label in selinux_kernel_read_file()
selinux: fix spelling error
For (!X86_KERNEL_IBT && !LTO_CLANG && NOINSTR_VALIDATION), objtool runs
on both translation units and vmlinux.o. The vmlinux.o run only does
noinstr/noret validation. In that case --no-unreachable has no effect.
Remove it.
Note that for ((X86_KERNEL_IBT || LTO_CLANG) && KCOV), --no-unreachable
still gets set in objtool-args-y by scripts/Makefile.lib.

Remove the following from CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR:
* backtrace
* "upgraded warnings to errors" message
* cmdline args
This makes the default output less cluttered and makes it easier to spot
the actual warnings. Note the above options are still are available
with --verbose or OBJTOOL_VERBOSE=1.
Also, do the cmdline arg printing on all warnings, regardless of werror.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- Mount notifications
The day has come where we finally provide a new api to listen for
mount topology changes outside of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo. A mount
namespace file descriptor can be supplied and registered with
fanotify to listen for mount topology changes.
Currently notifications for mount, umount and moving mounts are
generated. The generated notification record contains the unique
mount id of the mount.
The listmount() and statmount() api can be used to query detailed
information about the mount using the received unique mount id.
This allows userspace to figure out exactly how the mount topology
changed without having to generating diffs of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
in userspace.
- Support O_PATH file descriptors with FSCONFIG_SET_FD in the new mount
api
- Support detached mounts in overlayfs
Since last cycle we support specifying overlayfs layers via file
descriptors. However, we don't allow detached mounts which means
userspace cannot user file descriptors received via
open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE) and fsmount() directly. They have to
attach them to a mount namespace via move_mount() first.
This is cumbersome and means they have to undo mounts via umount().
Allow them to directly use detached mounts.
- Allow to retrieve idmappings with statmount
Currently it isn't possible to figure out what idmapping has been
attached to an idmapped mount. Add an extension to statmount() which
allows to read the idmapping from the mount.
- Allow creating idmapped mounts from mounts that are already idmapped
So far it isn't possible to allow the creation of idmapped mounts
from already idmapped mounts as this has significant lifetime
implications. Make the creation of idmapped mounts atomic by allow to
pass struct mount_attr together with the open_tree_attr() system call
allowing to solve these issues without complicating VFS lookup in any
way.
The system call has in general the benefit that creating a detached
mount and applying mount attributes to it becomes an atomic operation
for userspace.
- Add a way to query statmount() for supported options
Allow userspace to query which mount information can be retrieved
through statmount().
- Allow superblock owners to force unmount

Since Rust 1.82.0 the `raw_ref_op` feature is stable [1].
By enabling this feature we can use `&raw const place` and
`&raw mut place` instead of using `addr_of!(place)` and
`addr_of_mut!(place)` macros.
Allowing us to reduce macro complexity, and improve consistency
with existing reference syntax as `&raw const`, `&raw mut` are
similar to `&`, `&mut` making it fit more naturally with other
existing code.

The double slashes ('//') between 'usr' and 'lib' are somewhat ugly.
Let's hardcode the module installation path because the package contents

scripts/packages/{builddeb,kernel.spec} also hardcode the module
installation path.
With this change, the log will look better, as follows:

In ThinPro, we use the convention <upstream_ver>+hp<patchlevel> for
the kernel package. This does not have a dash in the name or version.
This is built by editing ".version" before a build, and setting
EXTRAVERSION="+hp" and KDEB_PKGVERSION make variables:
echo 68 > .version
make -j<n> EXTRAVERSION="+hp" bindeb-pkg KDEB_PKGVERSION=6.12.2+hp69
.deb name: linux-image-6.12.2+hp_6.12.2+hp69_amd64.deb
Since commit 7d4f07d5cb ("kbuild: deb-pkg: squash
scripts/package/deb-build-option to debian/rules"), this no longer
works. The deb build logic changed, even though, the commit message
implies that the logic should be unmodified.
Before, KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION was not set if the KDEB_PKGVERSION did
not contain a dash. After the change KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION is always
set to KDEB_PKGVERSION. Since this determines UTS_VERSION, the uname
output to look off:
(now) uname -a: version 6.12.2+hp ... #6.12.2+hp69
(expected) uname -a: version 6.12.2+hp ... #69
Update the debian/rules logic to restore the original behavior.

'man dpkg-deb' describes as follows:
DPKG_DEB_COMPRESSOR_TYPE
Sets the compressor type to use (since dpkg 1.21.10).
The -Z option overrides this value.
When commit 1a7f0a34ea ("builddeb: allow selection of .deb compressor")
was applied, dpkg-deb did not support this environment variable.
Later, dpkg commit c10aeffc6d71 ("dpkg-deb: Add support for
DPKG_DEB_COMPRESSOR_TYPE/LEVEL") introduced support for
DPKG_DEB_COMPRESSOR_TYPE, which provides the same functionality as
KDEB_COMPRESS.
KDEB_COMPRESS is still useful for users of older dpkg versions, but I
would like to remove this redundant functionality in the future.
This commit adds comments to notify users of the planned removal and to
encourage migration to DPKG_DEB_COMPRESSOR_TYPE where possible.

When loading symbols from kernel modules we used to iterate
from 0 to module_sect_attrs::nsections, in order to
retrieve their name and address.
However module_sect_attrs::nsections has been removed from
the struct by a previous commit.
Re-arrange the iteration by accessing all items in
module_sect_attrs::grp::bin_attrs[] until NULL is found
(it's a NULL terminated array).
At the same time the symbol address cannot be extracted
from module_sect_attrs::attrs[]::address anymore because
it has also been deleted. Fetch it from
module_sect_attrs::grp::bin_attrs[]::private as described
in 4b2c11e4aa.

Objtool warnings can be indicative of crashes, broken live patching, or
even boot failures. Ignoring them is not recommended.
Add CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR to upgrade objtool warnings to errors by
enabling the objtool --Werror option. Also set --backtrace to print the
branches leading up to the warning, which can help considerably when
debugging certain warnings.

Patch series "Converge on using secs_to_jiffies() part two", v3.
This is the second series that converts users of msecs_to_jiffies() that
either use the multiply pattern of either of:
- msecs_to_jiffies(N*1000) or
- msecs_to_jiffies(N*MSEC_PER_SEC)
where N is a constant or an expression, to avoid the multiplication.
The conversion is made with Coccinelle with the secs_to_jiffies() script
in scripts/coccinelle/misc. Attention is paid to what the best change can
be rather than restricting to what the tool provides.
This patch (of 16):
Teach the script to suggest conversions for timeout patterns where the
arguments to msecs_to_jiffies() are expressions as well.

We currently have $lx_per_cpu() which works fine for stuff that kernel
code would access via per_cpu(). But this doesn't work for stuff that
kernel code accesses via per_cpu_ptr():
(gdb) p $lx_per_cpu(node_data[1].node_zones[2]->per_cpu_pageset)
Cannot access memory at address 0xffff11105fbd6c28
This is because we take the address of the pointer and use that as the
offset, instead of using the stored value.
Add a GDB version that mirrors the kernel API, which uses the pointer
value.
To be consistent with per_cpu_ptr(), we need to return the pointer value
instead of dereferencing it for the user. Therefore, move the existing

After introducing the --substatus option, we can stop adjusting the
reported maintainer role by the subsystem's status.
For compatibility with the --git-chief-penguins option, keep the "chief
penguin" role.

Patch series "get_maintainer: report subsystem status separately", v2.
The subsystem status (S: field) can inform a patch submitter if the
subsystem is well maintained or e.g. maintainers are missing. In
get_maintainer, it is currently reported with --role(stats) by adjusting
the maintainer role for any status different from Maintained. This has
two downsides:
- if a subsystem has only reviewers or mailing lists and no maintainers,
the status is not reported. For example Orphan subsystems typically
have no maintainers so there's nobody to report as orphan minder.
- the Supported status means that someone is paid for maintaining, but
it is reported as "supporter" for all the maintainers, which can be
incorrect (only some of them may be paid). People (including myself)
have been also confused about what "supporter" means.
The second point has been brought up in 2022 and the discussion in the end
resulted in adjusting documentation only [1]. I however agree with Ted's
points that it's misleading to take the subsystem status and apply it to
all maintainers [2].
The attempt to modify get_maintainer output was retracted after Joe
objected that the status becomes not reported at all [3]. This series
addresses that concern by reporting the status (unless it's the most
common Maintained one) on separate lines that follow the reported emails,
using a new --substatus parameter. Care is taken to reduce the noise to
minimum by not reporting the most common Maintained status, by default
require no opt-in that would need the users to discover the new parameter,
and at the same time not to break existing git --cc-cmd usage.

This patch (of 2):
The subsystem status is currently reported with --role(stats) by adjusting
the maintainer role for any status different from Maintained. This has
two downsides:
- if a subsystem has only reviewers or mailing lists and no maintainers,
the status is not reported (i.e. typically, Orphan subsystems have no
maintainers)
- the Supported status means that someone is paid for maintaining, but
it is reported as "supporter" for all the maintainers, which can be
incorrect. People have been also confused about what "supporter"
means.
This patch introduces a new --substatus option and functionality aimed to
report the subsystem status separately, without adjusting the reported
maintainer role. After the e-mails are output, the status of subsystems
will follow, for example:
...
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list:LIBRARY CODE)
LIBRARY CODE status: Supported
In order to allow replacing the role rewriting seamlessly, the new
option works as follows:
- it is automatically enabled when --email and --role are enabled
(the defaults include --email and --rolestats which implies --role)
- usages with --norolestats e.g. for git's --cc-cmd will thus need no
adjustments
- the most common Maintained status is not reported at all, to reduce
unnecessary noise
- THE REST catch-all section (contains lkml) status is not reported
- the existing --subsystem and --status options are unaffected so their
users will need no adjustments
