Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around: - 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.

This reverts commit dbdffaf50ff9cee3259a7cef8a7bd9e0f0ba9f13. --remap-path-prefix breaks the ability of debuggers to find the source file corresponding to object files.

2025-04-30kbuild: Properly disable -Wunterminated-string-initialization for clangNathan Chancellor1-7/+0
Clang and GCC have different behaviors around disabling warnings included in -Wall and -Wextra and the order in which flags are specified, which is exposed by clang's new support for -Wunterminated-string-initialization. $ cat test.c const char foo[3] = "FOO"; const char bar[3] __attribute__((__nonstring__)) = "BAR"; $ clang -fsyntax-only -Wextra test.c test.c:1:21: warning: initializer-string for character array is too long, array size is 3 but initializer has size 4 (including the null terminating character); did you mean to use the 'nonstring' attribute?

2025-04-23Fix mis-uses of 'cc-option' for warning disablementLinus Torvalds1-2/+2
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.

2025-04-20gcc-15: disable '-Wunterminated-string-initialization' entirely for nowLinus Torvalds1-2/+2
I had left the warning around but as a non-fatal error to get my gcc-15 builds going, but fixed up some of the most annoying warning cases so that it wouldn't be *too* verbose. Because I like the _concept_ of the warning, even if I detested the implementation to shut it up. It turns out the implementation to shut it up is even more broken than I thought, and my "shut up most of the warnings" patch just caused fatal errors on gcc-14 instead. I had tested with clang, but when I upgrade my development environment, I try to do it on all machines because I hate having different systems to maintain, and hadn't realized that gcc-14 now had issues. The ACPI case is literally why I wanted to have a *type* that doesn't trigger the warning (see commit d5d45a7f2619: "gcc-15: make 'unterminated string initialization' just a warning"), instead of marking individual places as "__nonstring". But gcc-14 doesn't like that __nonstring location that shut gcc-15 up, because it's on an array of char arrays, not on one single array: drivers/acpi/tables.c:399:1: error: 'nonstring' attribute ignored on objects of type 'const char[][4]' [-Werror=attributes] 399 | static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __initconst __nonstring = { | ^~~~~~ and my attempts to nest it properly with a type had failed, because of how gcc doesn't like marking the types as having attributes, only symbols. There may be some trick to it, but I was already annoyed by the bad attribute design, now I'm just entirely fed up with it. I wish gcc had a proper way to say "this type is a *byte* array, not a string". The obvious thing would be to distinguish between "char []" and an explicitly signed "unsigned char []" (as opposed to an implicitly unsigned char, which is typically an architecture-specific default, but for the kernel is universal thanks to '-funsigned-char'). But any "we can typedef a 8-bit type to not become a string just because it's an array" model would be fine. But "__attribute__((nonstring))" is sadly not that sane model.

2025-04-20gcc-15: make 'unterminated string initialization' just a warningLinus Torvalds1-0/+3
gcc-15 enabling -Wunterminated-string-initialization in -Wextra by default was done with the best intentions, but the warning is still quite broken. What annoys me about the warning is that this is a very traditional AND CORRECT way to initialize fixed byte arrays in C: unsigned char hex[16] = "0123456789abcdef"; and we use this all over the kernel. And the warning is fine, but gcc developers apparently never made a reasonable way to disable it. As is (sadly) tradition with these things. Yes, there's "__attribute__((nonstring))", and we have a macro to make that absolutely disgusting syntax more palatable (ie the kernel syntax for that monstrosity is just "__nonstring"). But that attribute is misdesigned. What you'd typically want to do is tell the compiler that you are using a type that isn't a string but a byte array, but that doesn't work at all: warning: ‘nonstring’ attribute does not apply to types [-Wattributes] and because of this fundamental mis-design, you then have to mark each instance of that pattern. This is particularly noticeable in our ACPI code, because ACPI has this notion of a 4-byte "type name" that gets used all over, and is exactly this kind of byte array. This is a sad oversight, because the warning is useful, but really would be so much better if gcc had also given a sane way to indicate that we really just want a byte array type at a type level, not the broken "each and every array definition" level. So now instead of creating a nice "ACPI name" type using something like typedef char acpi_name_t[4] __nonstring; we have to do things like char name[ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __nonstring; in every place that uses this concept and then happens to have the typical initializers. This is annoying me mainly because I think the warning _is_ a good warning, which is why I'm not just turning it off in disgust. But it is hampered by this bad implementation detail. [ And obviously I'm doing this now because system upgrades for me are something that happen in the middle of the release cycle: don't do it before or during travel, or just before or during the busy merge window period. ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2025-04-14rust: disable `clippy::needless_continue`Miguel Ojeda1-1/+0
Starting with Rust 1.86.0, Clippy's `needless_continue` lint complains about the last statement of a loop [1], including cases like: while ... { match ... { ... if ... => { ... return ...; } _ => continue, } } as well as nested `match`es in a loop. One solution is changing `continue` for `()` [2], but arguably using `continue` shows the intent better when it is alone in an arm like that. Moreover, I am not sure we want to force people to try to find other ways to write the code either, in cases when that applies. In addition, the help text does not really apply in the new cases the lint has introduced, e.g. here one cannot simply "drop" the expression: warning: this `continue` expression is redundant --> rust/macros/helpers.rs:85:18 | 85 | _ => continue, | ^^^^^^^^ | = help: consider dropping the `continue` expression = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#needless_continue = note: requested on the command line with `-W clippy::needless-continue` The examples in the documentation do not show a case like this, either, so the second "help" line does not help. In addition, locally disabling the lint is not possible with `expect`, since the behavior differs across versions. Using `allow` would be possible, but, even then, an extra line just for this is a bit too much, especially if there are other ways to satisfy the lint. Finally, the lint is still in the "pedantic" category and disabled by default by Clippy. Thus disable the lint, at least for the time being. Feedback was submitted to upstream Clippy, in case this can be improved or perhaps the lint split into several [3].

2025-04-08kbuild: Add '-fno-builtin-wcslen'Nathan Chancellor1-0/+3
A recent optimization change in LLVM [1] aims to transform certain loop idioms into calls to strlen() or wcslen(). This change transforms the first while loop in UniStrcat() into a call to wcslen(), breaking the build when UniStrcat() gets inlined into alloc_path_with_tree_prefix(): ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: wcslen >>> referenced by nls_ucs2_utils.h:54 (fs/smb/client/../../nls/nls_ucs2_utils.h:54) >>> vmlinux.o:(alloc_path_with_tree_prefix) >>> referenced by nls_ucs2_utils.h:54 (fs/smb/client/../../nls/nls_ucs2_utils.h:54) >>> vmlinux.o:(alloc_path_with_tree_prefix) Disable this optimization with '-fno-builtin-wcslen', which prevents the compiler from assuming that wcslen() is available in the kernel's C library. [ More to the point - it's not that we couldn't implement wcslen(), it's that this isn't an optimization at all in the context of the kernel. Replacing a simple inlined loop with a function call to the same loop is just stupid and pointless if you don't have long strings and fancy libraries with vectorization support etc. For the regular 'strlen()' cases, we want the compiler to do this in order to handle the trivial case of constant strings. And we do have optimized versions of 'strlen()' on some architectures. But for wcslen? Just no. - Linus ] Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/9694844d7e36fd5e01011ab56b64f27b867aa72d [1] Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2025-03-17kbuild: Create intermediate vmlinux build with relocations preservedArd Biesheuvel1-1/+1
The imperative paradigm used to build vmlinux, extract some info from it or perform some checks on it, and subsequently modify it again goes against the declarative paradigm that is usually employed for defining make rules. In particular, the Makefile.postlink files that consume their input via an output rule result in some dodgy logic in the decompressor makefiles for RISC-V and x86, given that the vmlinux.relocs input file needed to generate the arch-specific relocation tables may not exist or be out of date, but cannot be constructed using the ordinary Make dependency based rules, because the info needs to be extracted while vmlinux is in its ephemeral, non-stripped form. So instead, for architectures that require the static relocations that are emitted into vmlinux when passing --emit-relocs to the linker, and are subsequently stripped out again, introduce an intermediate vmlinux target called vmlinux.unstripped, and organize the reset of the build logic accordingly: - vmlinux.unstripped is created only once, and not updated again - build rules under arch/*/boot can depend on vmlinux.unstripped without running the risk of the data disappearing or being out of date - the final vmlinux generated by the build is not bloated with static relocations that are never needed again after the build completes.

2025-03-17kbuild: Introduce Kconfig symbol for linking vmlinux with relocationsArd Biesheuvel1-0/+4
Some architectures build vmlinux with static relocations preserved, but strip them again from the final vmlinux image. Arch specific tools consume these static relocations in order to construct relocation tables for KASLR. The fact that vmlinux is created, consumed and subsequently updated goes against the typical, declarative paradigm used by Make, which is based on rules and dependencies. So as a first step towards cleaning this up, introduce a Kconfig symbol to declare that the arch wants to consume the static relocations emitted into vmlinux. This will be wired up further in subsequent patches. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

2025-03-05kbuild: userprogs: use correct lld when linking through clangThomas Weißschuh1-0/+5
The userprog infrastructure links objects files through $(CC). Either explicitly by manually calling $(CC) on multiple object files or implicitly by directly compiling a source file to an executable. The documentation at Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst indicates that ld.lld would be used for linking if LLVM=1 is specified. However clang instead will use either a globally installed cross linker from $PATH called ${target}-ld or fall back to the system linker, which probably does not support crosslinking. For the normal kernel build this is not an issue because the linker is always executed directly, without the compiler being involved. Explicitly pass --ld-path to clang so $(LD) is respected. As clang 13.0.1 is required to build the kernel, this option is available.

2025-02-26x86/ibt: Implement FineIBT-BHI mitigationPeter Zijlstra1-0/+3
While WAIT_FOR_ENDBR is specified to be a full speculation stop; it has been shown that some implementations are 'leaky' to such an extend that speculation can escape even the FineIBT preamble. To deal with this, add additional hardening to the FineIBT preamble. Notably, using a new LLVM feature: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/e223485c9b38a5579991b8cebb6a200153eee245 which encodes the number of arguments in the kCFI preamble's register. Using this register<->arity mapping, have the FineIBT preamble CALL into a stub clobbering the relevant argument registers in the speculative case. Scott sayeth thusly: Microarchitectural attacks such as Branch History Injection (BHI) and Intra-mode Branch Target Injection (IMBTI) [1] can cause an indirect call to mispredict to an adversary-influenced target within the same hardware domain (e.g., within the kernel). Instructions at the mispredicted target may execute speculatively and potentially expose kernel data (e.g., to a user-mode adversary) through a microarchitectural covert channel such as CPU cache state. CET-IBT [2] is a coarse-grained control-flow integrity (CFI) ISA extension that enforces that each indirect call (or indirect jump) must land on an ENDBR (end branch) instruction, even speculatively*. FineIBT is a software technique that refines CET-IBT by associating each function type with a 32-bit hash and enforcing (at the callee) that the hash of the caller's function pointer type matches the hash of the callee's function type. However, recent research [3] has demonstrated that the conditional branch that enforces FineIBT's hash check can be coerced to mispredict, potentially allowing an adversary to speculatively bypass the hash check: __cfi_foo: ENDBR64 SUB R10d, 0x01234567 JZ foo # Even if the hash check fails and ZF=0, this branch could still mispredict as taken UD2 foo: ... The techniques demonstrated in [3] require the attacker to be able to control the contents of at least one live register at the mispredicted target. Therefore, this patch set introduces a sequence of CMOV instructions at each indirect-callable target that poisons every live register with data that the attacker cannot control whenever the FineIBT hash check fails, thus mitigating any potential attack. The security provided by this scheme has been discussed in detail on an earlier thread [4].

[1] MAKEFLAGS puts all single-letter options into the first word, and that word will be empty if no single-letter options were given. [2] However, this breaks if MAKEFLAGS=<value> is given on the command line. The tools/ and tools/% targets set MAKEFLAGS=<value> on the command line, which breaks the following code in tools/scripts/Makefile.include: short-opts := $(firstword -$(MAKEFLAGS)) If MAKEFLAGS really needs modification, it should be done through the environment variable, as follows: MAKEFLAGS=<value> $(MAKE) ... That said, I question whether modifying MAKEFLAGS is necessary here. The only flag we might want to exclude is --no-print-directory, as the tools build system changes the working directory. However, people might find the "Entering/Leaving directory" logs annoying. I simply removed the offending MAKEFLAGS=<value>.

Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "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.
