firmware_loader: make RUST_FW_LOADER_ABSTRACTIONS select FW_LOADER

2025-12-18T13:03:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9906efa545d1d2cf25a614eeb219d3f8d5a302cd ] The use of firmware_loader is an implementation detail of drivers rather than a dependency. FW_LOADER is typically selected rather than depended on; the Rust abstractions should do the same thing.

sysfs: treewide: switch back to attribute_group::bin_attrs

The normal bin_attrs field can now handle const pointers. This makes the _new variant unnecessary. Switch all users back. Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250530-sysfs-const-bin_attr-final-v3-4-724bfcf05b99@weissschuh.net Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Move the helper from the firmware specific code to a header so we can reuse it for coredump sockets. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250612-work-coredump-massage-v1-5-315c0c34ba94@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner

firmware_loader: use SHA-256 library API instead of crypto_shash API

2025-04-30T19:55:54+00:00

This user of SHA-256 does not support any other algorithm, so the crypto_shash abstraction provides no value. Just use the SHA-256 library API instead, which is much simpler and easier to use. Also take advantage of printk's built-in hex conversion using %*phN.

Merge tag 'constfy-sysctl-6.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl

2025-01-29T18:35:40+00:00

Pull sysctl table constification from Joel Granados: "All ctl_table declared outside of functions and that remain unmodified after initialization are const qualified. This prevents unintended modifications to proc_handler function pointers by placing them in the .rodata section. This is a continuation of the tree-wide effort started a few releases ago with the constification of the ctl_table struct arguments in the sysctl API done in 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers")" * tag 'constfy-sysctl-6.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl: treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable

treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable

2025-01-28T12:48:37+00:00

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls, loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net, drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function. Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata. This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the proc_handlers. Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command: Spatch: virtual patch @ depends on !(file in "net") disable optional_qualifier @ identifier table_name != { watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, iwcm_ctl_table, ucma_ctl_table, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls, loadpin_sysctl_table }; @@ + const struct ctl_table table_name [] = { ... }; sed: sed --in-place \ -e "s/struct ctl_table .table = &uts_kern/const struct ctl_table *table = \&uts_kern/" \ kernel/utsname_sysctl.c Reviewed-by: Song Liu Acked-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) # for kernel/trace/ Reviewed-by: Martin K.

firmware_loader: Constify 'struct bin_attribute'

2025-01-10T09:15:11+00:00

The sysfs core now allows instances of 'struct bin_attribute' to be moved into read-only memory. Make use of that to protect them against accidental or malicious modifications.

module: Convert symbol namespace to string literal

Clean up the existing export namespace code along the same lines of commit 33def8498fdd ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of __section(foo) to __section("foo")") and for the same reason, it is not desired for the namespace argument to be a macro expansion itself.
