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:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-modules/list/https://github.com/linux-kdevops/kdevops/blob/main/docs/kernel-ci/README.mdhttps://github.com/linux-kdevops/kdevops/blob/main/docs/kernel-ci/kernel-ci-kpd.mdhttps://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 the CI.

Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"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.
MAINTAINERS:
- Add Danilo Krummrich as maintainer of the new 'alloc' module.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Addition of faultable tracepoints
There's a tracepoint attached to both a system call entry and exit.
This location is known to allow page faults. The tracepoints are
called under an rcu_read_lock() which does not allow faults that can
sleep. This limits the ability of tracepoint handlers to page fault
in user space system call parameters. Now these tracepoints have been
made "faultable", allowing the callbacks to fault in user space
parameters and record them.
Note, only the infrastructure has been implemented. The consumers
(perf, ftrace, BPF) now need to have their code modified to allow
faults.
- Fix up of BPF code for the tracepoint faultable logic
- Update tracepoints to use the new static branch API
- Remove trace_*_rcuidle() variants and the SRCU protection they used
- Remove unused TRACE_EVENT_FL_FILTERED logic
- Replace strncpy() with strscpy() and memcpy()
- Use replace per_cpu_ptr(smp_processor_id()) with this_cpu_ptr()
- Fix perf events to not duplicate samples when tracing is enabled
- Replace atomic64_add_return(1, counter) with
atomic64_inc_return(counter)
- Make stack trace buffer 4K instead of PAGE_SIZE
- Remove TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_NOSUPPORT flag as it was never used
- Get the true return address for function tracer when function graph
tracer is also running.
When function_graph trace is running along with function tracer, the
parent function of the function tracer sometimes is
"return_to_handler", which is the function graph trampoline to record
the exit of the function. Use existing logic that calls into the
fgraph infrastructure to find the real return address.
- Remove (un)regfunc pointers out of tracepoint structure
- Added last minute bug fix for setting pending modules in stack
function filter.
echo "write*:mod:ext3" > /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter
Would cause a kernel NULL dereference.

This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small

for no value. This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to
the lock order of posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with
life time issues as the timer and the sigqueue have different life
time rules.
Cure this by:
- Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same
life time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of
the timer in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a
always valid container_of() now.
- Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
- Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the
signal is switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
- Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal
delivery code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they
are consistent across all situations. With that all self test
scenarios finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time
stamps by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode
attributes are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that
the VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
- Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
- Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline
functions and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper
defines.
- Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the
timer wheel granularity on different HZ values into account.
Right now the boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail
to provide the requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
- Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions
and fix up stale documentation links all over the place
- Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP
clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as
that's the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the
various user space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file
descriptor based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited.
They can't be accessed fast as they always go all the way out to
the hardware and they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.
The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2)
infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the
kernel provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc.
Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework
converts timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality
which operates on pointers to data structures instead of using
static variables.
This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality
for the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step.
- Consolidate hrtimer initialization
hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then
seperately setting the callback function for historical reasons.
That's an extra unnecessary step and makes Rust support less
straight forward than it should be.
Provide a new set of hrtimer_setup*() functions and convert the
core code and a few usage sites of the less frequently used
interfaces over.
The bulk of the htimer_init() to hrtimer_setup() conversion is
already prepared and scheduled for the next merge window.
- Drivers:
- Ensure that the global timekeeping clocksource is utilizing the
cluster 0 timer on MIPS multi-cluster systems.
Otherwise CPUs on different clusters use their cluster specific
clocksource which is not guaranteed to be synchronized with
other clusters.
- Mostly boring cleanups, fixes, improvements and code movement"

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
- Add support for netlink xperms
Some time ago we added the concept of "xperms" to the SELinux policy
so that we could write policy for individual ioctls, this builds upon
this by using extending xperms to netlink so that we can write
SELinux policy for individual netlnk message types and not rely on
the fairly coarse read/write mapping tables we currently have.
There are limitations involving generic netlink due to the
multiplexing that is done, but it's no worse that what we currently
have. As usual, more information can be found in the commit message.

When testing a `clang` upgrade with Rust Binder, Alice encountered [1] a
build failure caused by `bindgen` not translating some symbols related to
tracepoints. This was caused by commit 2e770edd8ce1 ("[libclang] Compute
the right spelling location") changing the behavior of a function exposed
by `libclang`. `bindgen` fixed the regression in commit 600f63895f73
("Use clang_getFileLocation instead of clang_getSpellingLocation").
However, the regression fix is only available in `bindgen` versions
0.69.5 or later (it was backported for 0.69.x). This means that when
older bindgen versions are used with new versions of `libclang`, `bindgen`
may do the wrong thing, which could lead to a build failure.
Alice encountered the bug with some header files related to tracepoints,
but it could also cause build failures in other circumstances. Thus,
always emit a warning when using an old `bindgen` with a new `libclang`
so that other people do not have to spend time chasing down the same
bug.
However, testing just the version is inconvenient, since distributions
do patch their packages without changing the version, so I reduced the
issue into the following piece of code that can trigger the issue:
#define F(x) int x##x
F(foo);
In particular, an unpatched `bindgen` will ignore the macro expansion
and thus not provide a declaration for the exported `int`.
Thus add a build test to `rust_is_available.sh` using the code above
(that is only triggered if the versions appear to be affected), following
what we did for the 0.66.x issue.
Moreover, I checked the status in the major distributions we have
instructions for:
- Fedora 41 was affected but is now OK, since it now ships `bindgen`
0.69.5.
Thanks Ben for the quick reply on the updates that were ongoing.
Fedora 40 and earlier are OK (older `libclang`, and they also now
carry `bindgen` 0.69.5).
- Debian Sid was affected but is now OK, since they now ship a patched
`bindgen` binary (0.66.1-7+b3). The issue was reported to Debian by
email and then as a bug report [2].
Thanks NoisyCoil and Matthias for the quick replies. NoisyCoil handled
the needed updates. Debian may upgrade to `bindgen` 0.70.x, too.
Debian Testing is OK (older `libclang` so far).
- Ubuntu non-LTS (oracular) is affected. The issue was reported to Ubuntu
by email and then as a bug report [3].
Ubuntu LTS is not affected (older `libclang` so far).
- Arch Linux, Gentoo Linux and openSUSE should be OK (newer `bindgen` is
provided). Nix as well (older `libclang` so far).
This issue was also added to our "live list" that tracks issues around
distributions [4].

Pass the value of make's -j/--jobs argument to pahole, to avoid out of
memory errors and make pahole respect the "jobs" value of make.
On systems with little memory but many cores, invoking pahole using -j
without argument potentially creates too many pahole instances,
causing an out-of-memory situation. Instead, we should pass make's
"jobs" value as an argument to pahole's -j, which is likely configured
to be (much) lower than the actual core count on such systems.
If make was invoked without -j, either via cmdline or MAKEFLAGS, then
JOBS will be simply empty, resulting in the existing behavior, as
expected.

When building a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit build host, incorrect
input MODULE_ALIAS() entries may be generated.
For example, when compiling a 64-bit kernel with CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=m
on a 64-bit build machine, you will get the correct output:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/mousedev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*110,*r*0,*1,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*r*8,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");

MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*110,*r*a*0,*1,*m*l*s*f*w*");
However, building the same kernel on a 32-bit machine results in
incorrect output:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/mousedev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*110,*130,*r*0,*1,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");

MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*110,*130,*r*a*0,*1,*20,*21,*m*l*s*f*w*");
A similar issue occurs with CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m. On a 64-bit build
machine, the output is:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/joydev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*0,*m*l*s*f*w*");

MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*2C0,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
However, on a 32-bit machine, the output is incorrect:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/joydev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*0,*20,*m*l*s*f*w*");

When building a 64-bit kernel, BITS_PER_LONG is defined as 64. However,
on a 32-bit build machine, the constant 1L is a signed 32-bit value.
Left-shifting it beyond 32 bits causes wraparound, and shifting by 31
or 63 bits makes it a negative value.
The fix in commit e0e9263271 ("[PATCH] PATCH: 1 line 2.6.18 bugfix:
modpost-64bit-fix.patch") is incorrect; it only addresses cases where
a 64-bit kernel is built on a 64-bit build machine, overlooking cases
on a 32-bit build machine.
Using 1ULL ensures a 64-bit width on both 32-bit and 64-bit machines,
avoiding the wraparound issue.

When CONFIG_SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM=m, modpost outputs incorect acpi
MODULE_ALIAS() if the endianness of the target and the build machine

the output is correct:
$ grep 'MODULE_ALIAS("acpi' drivers/ata/ahci_platform.mod.c

MODULE_ALIAS("acpi*:010601:*");
However, when building a little-endian kernel on a big-endian machine

DEF_FIELD() must be used instead of DEF_FIELD_ADDR() to correctly handle

The check 'if (cls)' was unnecessary; it never became NULL, as it was
the pointer to 'symval' plus the offset to the 'cls' field.

Since commit f79dc03fe6 ("kconfig: refactor choice value
calculation"), when EXPERT is disabled, nothing within the "if INPUT"
... "endif" block in drivers/input/Kconfig is displayed. This issue
affects all command-line interfaces and GUI frontends.
The prompt for INPUT is hidden when EXPERT is disabled. Previously,
menu_is_visible() returned true in this case; however, it now returns
false, resulting in all sub-menu entries being skipped.
Here is a simplified test case illustrating the issue:
config A
bool "A" if X
default y
config B
bool "B"
depends on A
When X is disabled, A becomes unconfigurable and is forced to y.
B should be displayed, as its dependency is met.
This commit restores the necessary code, so menu_is_visible() functions
as it did previously.

This commit adds a new profile, pkg.linux-upstream.nokernelheaders, to

$ DEB_BUILD_PROFILES=pkg.linux-upstream.nokernelheaders \
make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- bindeb-pkg
This skips the building of the linux-headers package.
Option 2: Install the necessary build dependencies
If you want to cross-compile the linux-headers package, you need to
install additional packages.
For example, on Debian, the packages necessary for cross-compiling it
to arm64 can be installed with the following commands:
# dpkg --add-architecture arm64
# apt update
# apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu libssl-dev:arm64

Since commit f1d87664b8 ("kbuild: cross-compile linux-headers package
when possible"), 'make binrpm-pkg' may attempt to cross-compile the
kernel-devel package, but it fails under certain circumstances.
For example, when CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORMAT is enabled on openSUSE
Tumbleweed, the following command fails:
$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-suse-linux- binrpm-pkg

compilation terminated.
I believe this issue is less common on Fedora because the disto's cross-
compilier cannot link user-space programs. Hence, CONFIG_CC_CAN_LINK is
unset.
On Fedora 40, the package information explains this limitation clearly:
$ dnf info gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu

Description : Cross-build GNU C compiler.
:
: Only building kernels is currently supported. Support for cross-building
: user space programs is not currently provided as that would massively multiply
: the number of packages.
Anyway, cross-compiling RPM packages is somewhat challenging.
This commit disables the kernel-devel package when cross-compiling
because I did not come up with a better solution.

On powerpc, we would like to be able to make a pass on vmlinux.o and
generate a new object file to be linked into vmlinux. Add a generic pass
in Makefile.vmlinux that architectures can use for this purpose.
Architectures need to select CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_PRE_LINK_VMLINUX and must
provide arch/<arch>/tools/Makefile with .arch.vmlinux.o target, which
will be invoked prior to the final vmlinux link step.

Some old versions of `rustc` did not report the LLVM version without
the patch version, e.g.:
$ rustc --version --verbose
rustc 1.48.0 (7eac88abb 2020-11-16)
binary: rustc
commit-hash: 7eac88abb2e57e752f3302f02be5f3ce3d7adfb4
commit-date: 2020-11-16
host: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
release: 1.48.0
LLVM version: 11.0
Which would make the new `scripts/rustc-llvm-version.sh` fail and,
in turn, the build:
$ make LLVM=1
SYNC include/config/auto.conf.cmd
./scripts/rustc-llvm-version.sh: 13: arithmetic expression: expecting primary: "10000 * 10 + 100 * 0 + "

make[1]: *** [/home/cam/linux/Makefile:780: include/config/auto.conf.cmd] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:224: __sub-make] Error 2
Since we do not need to support such binaries, we can avoid adding logic
for computing `rustc`'s LLVM version for those old binaries.
Thus, instead, just make the match stricter.
Other `rustc` binaries (even newer) did not report the LLVM version at
all, but that was fine, since it would not match "LLVM", e.g.:
$ rustc --version --verbose
rustc 1.49.0 (e1884a8e3 2020-12-29)

This reverts commit c02904f05f.
Such commit assumed that only two symbols are relevant for the symbol
size calculation. However, this can lead to an incorrect symbol size
calculation when there are mapping symbols emitted by readelf.
For instance, when feeding 'update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4', faddr2line
might need to process the following readelf lines:
784284: ffffffc0081cca30 428 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 update_irq_load_avg
87319: ffffffc0081ccb0c 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62522
87321: ffffffc0081ccbdc 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62524
87323: ffffffc0081ccbe0 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62526
87325: ffffffc0081ccbe4 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62528
87327: ffffffc0081ccbe8 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62530
87329: ffffffc0081ccbec 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62532
87331: ffffffc0081ccbf0 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62534
87332: ffffffc0081ccbf4 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62535
783403: ffffffc0081ccbf4 424 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 sched_pelt_multiplier
The symbol size of 'update_irq_load_avg' should be calculated with the
address of 'sched_pelt_multiplier', after skipping the mapping symbols
seen in between. However, the offending commit cuts the list short and
faddr2line incorrectly assumes 'update_irq_load_avg' is the last symbol
in the section, resulting in:
$ scripts/faddr2line vmlinux update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4
skipping update_irq_load_avg address at 0xffffffc0081cca4c due to size mismatch (0x1c4 != 0x3ff9a59988)
no match for update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4
After reverting the commit the issue is resolved:
$ scripts/faddr2line vmlinux update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4
update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4:
cpu_of at kernel/sched/sched.h:1109

output_function_rst() does not handle object-like macros. It presents
a trailing "()" while output_function_man() handles these macros
correctly.
Update output_function_rst() to handle object-like macros.
Don't show the "Parameters" heading if there are no parameters.
For output_function_man(), don't show the "ARGUMENTS" heading if there
are no parameters.
I have tested this quite a bit with my ad hoc test files for both ReST

The section counter tracks how many sections of kernel-doc were added.
The only real use of the counter value is to check if anything was
actually supposed to be output and give a warning is nothing is
available.
The current logic of remembering the initial value and then resetting
the value then when processing each file means that if a file has the
same number of sections as the previously processed one, a warning is
incorrectly given.

As stated at Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst, to make usage of ccache one
must set KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP=''. Setting this together with W=1
will trigger the following warning for every compiled file:
date: invalid date ‘+%s’
This comes from kernel-doc script, that produces the following command
when KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP is empty:
date -d"" +%s
That triggers the warning above. Add a space between the flag `-d` and
the string argument to fix date command and remove the warning.
