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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The module paths recorded in Module.symvers are no longer globally unique
when they are passed via KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS for building other external
modules, which may result in false-positive "exported twice" errors.
Such errors should not occur because external modules should be able to
override in-tree modules.
To address this, record the dump file path in struct module and check it
when searching for a module.

Stop installing Debian maintainer scripts when building a

Debian maintainer scripts are used for e.g. requesting rebuilds of
initrd, rebuilding DKMS modules and updating of grub configuration. As
all of this is not relevant for UML but also may lead to failures while
processing the kernel hooks, do no more install maintainer scripts for

EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() mass change"
* tag 'docs-6.13-fix' of git://git.lwn.net/linux:
scripts/kernel-doc: Get -export option working again
This is new API which caters to the following requirements:
- Pack or unpack a large number of fields to/from a buffer with a small
code footprint. The current alternative is to open-code a large number
of calls to pack() and unpack(), or to use packing() to reduce that
number to half. But packing() is not const-correct.
- Use unpacked numbers stored in variables smaller than u64. This
reduces the rodata footprint of the stored field arrays.
- Perform error checking at compile time, rather than runtime, and return
void from the API functions. Because the C preprocessor can't generate
variable length code (loops), this is a bit tricky to do with macros.
To handle this, implement macros which sanity check the packed field
definitions based on their size. Finally, a single macro with a chain of
__builtin_choose_expr() is used to select the appropriate macros. We
enforce the use of ascending or descending order to avoid O(N^2) scaling
when checking for overlap. Note that the macros are written with care to
ensure that the compilers can correctly evaluate the resulting code at
compile time. In particular, care was taken with avoiding too many nested
statement expressions. Nested statement expressions trip up some
compilers, especially when passing down variables created in previous
statement expressions.
There are two key design choices intended to keep the overall macro code
size small. First, the definition of each CHECK_PACKED_FIELDS_N macro is
implemented recursively, by calling the N-1 macro. This avoids needing
the code to repeat multiple times.
Second, the CHECK_PACKED_FIELD macro enforces that the fields in the
array are sorted in order. This allows checking for overlap only with
neighboring fields, rather than the general overlap case where each field
would need to be checked against other fields.
The overlap checks use the first two fields to determine the order of the
remaining fields, thus allowing either ascending or descending order.
This enables drivers the flexibility to keep the fields ordered in which
ever order most naturally fits their hardware design and its associated
documentation.
The CHECK_PACKED_FIELDS macro is directly called from within pack_fields
and unpack_fields, ensuring that all drivers using the API receive the
benefits of the compile-time checks. Users do not need to directly call
any of the macros directly.
The CHECK_PACKED_FIELDS and its helper macros CHECK_PACKED_FIELDS_(0..50)
are generated using a simple C program in scripts/gen_packed_field_checks.c
This program can be compiled on demand and executed to generate the
macro code in include/linux/packing.h. This will aid in the event that a
driver needs more than 50 fields. The generator can be updated with a new
size, and used to update the packing.h header file. In practice, the ice
driver will need to support 27 fields, and the sja1105 driver will need
to support 0 fields. This on-demand generation avoids the need to modify
Kbuild. We do not anticipate the maximum number of fields to grow very
often.
- Reduced rodata footprint for the storage of the packed field arrays.
To that end, we have struct packed_field_u8 and packed_field_u16, which
define the fields with the associated type. More can be added as
needed (unlikely for now). On these types, the same generic pack_fields()
and unpack_fields() API can be used, thanks to the new C11 _Generic()
selection feature, which can call pack_fields_u8() or pack_fields_16(),
depending on the type of the "fields" array - a simplistic form of
polymorphism. It is evaluated at compile time which function will actually
be called.
Over time, packing() is expected to be completely replaced either with
pack() or with pack_fields().

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

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