Pull char / misc driver updates from Greg KH: "Here is the "big" set of char/misc and other driver subsystem changes for 6.12-rc1. Lots of changes in here, primarily dominated by the usual IIO driver updates and additions, but there are also small driver subsystem updates all over the place. Included in here are: - lots and lots of new IIO drivers and updates to existing ones - interconnect subsystem updates and new drivers - nvmem subsystem updates and new drivers - mhi driver updates - power supply subsystem updates - kobj_type const work for many different small subsystems - comedi driver fix - coresight subsystem and driver updates - fpga subsystem improvements - slimbus fixups - binder new feature addition for "frozen" notifications - lots and lots of other small driver updates and cleanups All of these have been in linux-next for a long time with no reported problems" * tag 'char-misc-6.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc: (354 commits) greybus: gb-beagleplay: Add firmware upload API arm64: dts: ti: k3-am625-beagleplay: Add bootloader-backdoor-gpios to cc1352p7 dt-bindings: net: ti,cc1352p7: Add bootloader-backdoor-gpios MAINTAINERS: Update path for U-Boot environment variables YAML nvmem: layouts: add U-Boot env layout comedi: ni_routing: tools: Check when the file could not be opened ocxl: Remove the unused declarations in headr file hpet: Fix the wrong format specifier uio: Constify struct kobj_type cxl: Constify struct kobj_type binder: modify the comment for binder_proc_unlock iio: adc: axp20x_adc: add support for AXP717 ADC dt-bindings: iio: adc: Add AXP717 compatible iio: adc: axp20x_adc: Add adc_en1 and adc_en2 to axp_data w1: ds2482: Drop explicit initialization of struct i2c_device_id::driver_data to 0 tools: iio: rm .*.cmd when make clean iio: adc: standardize on formatting for id match tables iio: proximity: aw96103: Add support for aw96103/aw96105 proximity sensor bus: mhi: host: pci_generic: Enable EDL trigger for Foxconn modems bus: mhi: host: pci_generic: Update EDL firmware path for Foxconn modems ...

kbuild: compile constant module information only once

2024-09-07T08:24:08+00:00

Various information about modules is compiled into the info sections. For that a dedicated .mod.c file is generated by modpost for each module and then linked into the module. However most of the information in the .mod.c is the same for all modules, internal and external. Split the shared information into a dedicated source file that is compiled once and then linked into all modules. This avoids frequent rebuilds for all .mod.c files when using CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO because the local version ends up in .mod.c through UTS_RELEASE and VERMAGIC_STRING. The modules are still relinked in this case. The code is also easier to maintain as it's now in a proper source file instead of an inline string literal.

slimbus: generate MODULE_ALIAS() from MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE()

2024-09-03T10:10:39+00:00

Commit 9e663f4811c6 ("slimbus: core: add support to uevent") added the MODALIAS=slim:* uevent variable, but modpost does not generate the corresponding MODULE_ALIAS(). To support automatic module loading, slimbus drivers still need to manually add MODULE_ALIAS("slim:::*"), as seen in sound/soc/codecs/wcd9335.c. To automate this, make modpost generate the proper MODULE_ALIAS() from MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(slim, ).

modpost: simplify modpost_log()

modpost: improve the section mismatch warning format

2024-09-01T11:34:49+00:00

This commit improves the section mismatch warning format when there is no suitable symbol name to print. The section mismatch warning prints the reference source in the form of + and the reference destination in the form of . However, there are some corner cases where becomes "(unknown)", as reported in commit 23dfd914d2bf ("modpost: fix null pointer dereference"). In such cases, it is better to print the symbol address.

modpost: replace the use of NOFAIL() with xmalloc() etc.

modpost: detect endianness on run-time

2024-09-01T11:33:32+00:00

Endianness is currently detected on compile-time, but we can defer this until run-time. This change avoids re-executing scripts/mod/mk_elfconfig even if modpost in the linux-headers package needs to be rebuilt for a foreign architecture. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier
