2025-08-06kheaders: make it possible to override TARMichał Górny1-1/+2
Commit 86cdd2fdc4e3 ("kheaders: make headers archive reproducible") introduced a number of options specific to GNU tar to the `tar` invocation in `gen_kheaders.sh` script. This causes the script to fail to work on systems where `tar` is not GNU tar. This can occur e.g. on recent Gentoo Linux installations that support using bsdtar from libarchive instead. Add a `TAR` make variable to make it possible to override the tar executable used, e.g. by specifying: make TAR=gtar Link: https://bugs.gentoo.org/884061 Reported-by: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> Tested-by: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> Co-developed-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
2025-08-06kbuild: userprogs: use correct linker when mixing clang and GNU ldThomas Weißschuh1-1/+1
The userprogs infrastructure does not expect clang being used with GNU ld and in that case uses /usr/bin/ld for linking, not the configured $(LD). This fallback is problematic as it will break when cross-compiling. Mixing clang and GNU ld is used for example when building for SPARC64, as ld.lld is not sufficient; see Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst. Relax the check around --ld-path so it gets used for all linkers.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ojeda/linux Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "Toolchain and infrastructure: - Enable a set of Clippy lints: 'ptr_as_ptr', 'ptr_cast_constness', 'as_ptr_cast_mut', 'as_underscore', 'cast_lossless' and 'ref_as_ptr' These are intended to avoid type casts with the 'as' operator, which are quite powerful, into restricted variants that are less powerful and thus should help to avoid mistakes - Remove the 'author' key now that most instances were moved to the plural one in the previous cycle 'kernel' crate: - New 'bug' module: add 'warn_on!' macro which reuses the existing 'BUG'/'WARN' infrastructure, i.e. it respects the usual sysctls and kernel parameters: warn_on!(value == 42); To avoid duplicating the assembly code, the same strategy is followed as for the static branch code in order to share the assembly between both C and Rust This required a few rearrangements on C arch headers -- the existing C macros should still generate the same outputs, thus no functional change expected there - 'workqueue' module: add delayed work items, including a 'DelayedWork' struct, a 'impl_has_delayed_work!' macro and an 'enqueue_delayed' method, e.g.: /// Enqueue the struct for execution on the system workqueue, /// where its value will be printed 42 jiffies later. fn print_later(value: Arc<MyStruct>) { let _ = workqueue::system().enqueue_delayed(value, 42); } - New 'bits' module: add support for 'bit' and 'genmask' functions, with runtime- and compile-time variants, e.g.: static_assert!(0b00010000 == bit_u8(4)); static_assert!(0b00011110 == genmask_u8(1..=4)); assert!(checked_bit_u32(u32::BITS).is_none()); - 'uaccess' module: add 'UserSliceReader::strcpy_into_buf', which reads NUL-terminated strings from userspace into a '&CStr' Introduce 'UserPtr' newtype, similar in purpose to '__user' in C, to minimize mistakes handling userspace pointers, including mixing them up with integers and leaking them via the 'Debug' trait. Add it to the prelude, too - Start preparations for the replacement of our custom 'CStr' type with the analogous type in the 'core' standard library. This will take place across several cycles to make it easier. For this one, it includes a new 'fmt' module, using upstream method names and some other cleanups Replace 'fmt!' with a re-export, which helps Clippy lint properly, and clean up the found 'uninlined-format-args' instances - 'dma' module: - Clarify wording and be consistent in 'coherent' nomenclature - Convert the 'read!()' and 'write!()' macros to return a 'Result' - Add 'as_slice()', 'write()' methods in 'CoherentAllocation' - Expose 'count()' and 'size()' in 'CoherentAllocation' and add the corresponding type invariants - Implement 'CoherentAllocation::dma_handle_with_offset()' - 'time' module: - Make 'Instant' generic over clock source. This allows the compiler to assert that arithmetic expressions involving the 'Instant' use 'Instants' based on the same clock source - Make 'HrTimer' generic over the timer mode. 'HrTimer' timers take a 'Duration' or an 'Instant' when setting the expiry time, depending on the timer mode. With this change, the compiler can check the type matches the timer mode - Add an abstraction for 'fsleep'. 'fsleep' is a flexible sleep function that will select an appropriate sleep method depending on the requested sleep time - Avoid 64-bit divisions on 32-bit hardware when calculating timestamps - Seal the 'HrTimerMode' trait. This prevents users of the 'HrTimerMode' from implementing the trait on their own types - Pass the correct timer mode ID to 'hrtimer_start_range_ns()' - 'list' module: remove 'OFFSET' constants, allowing to remove pointer arithmetic; now 'impl_list_item!' invokes 'impl_has_list_links!' or 'impl_has_list_links_self_ptr!'. Other simplifications too - 'types' module: remove 'ForeignOwnable::PointedTo' in favor of a constant, which avoids exposing the type of the opaque pointer, and require 'into_foreign' to return non-null Remove the 'Either<L, R>' type as well. It is unused, and we want to encourage the use of custom enums for concrete use cases - 'sync' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Arc' types to allow them to be used in generic APIs - 'alloc' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Box<T, A>'; and 'Borrow', 'BorrowMut' and 'Default' for 'Vec<T, A>' - 'Opaque' type: add 'cast_from' method to perform a restricted cast that cannot change the inner type and use it in callers of 'container_of!'. Rename 'raw_get' to 'cast_into' to match it - 'rbtree' module: add 'is_empty' method - 'sync' module: new 'aref' submodule to hold 'AlwaysRefCounted' and 'ARef', which are moved from the too general 'types' module which we want to reduce or eventually remove. Also fix a safety comment in 'static_lock_class' 'pin-init' crate: - Add 'impl<T, E> [Pin]Init<T, E> for Result<T, E>', so results are now (pin-)initializers - Add 'Zeroable::init_zeroed()' that delegates to 'init_zeroed()' - New 'zeroed()', a safe version of 'mem::zeroed()' and also provide it via 'Zeroable::zeroed()' - Implement 'Zeroable' for 'Option<&T>', 'Option<&mut T>' and for 'Option<[unsafe] [extern "abi"] fn(...args...) -> ret>' for '"Rust"' and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20 arguments - Changed blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl<T, E> [Pin]Init<T, E> for T' to 'impl<T> [Pin]Init<T> for T' - Renamed 'zeroed()' to 'init_zeroed()' - Upstream dev news: improve CI more to deny warnings, use '--all-targets'.

2025-06-23rust: enable `clippy::as_underscore` lintTamir Duberstein1-0/+1
In Rust 1.63.0, Clippy introduced the `as_underscore` lint [1]: > The conversion might include lossy conversion or a dangerous cast that > might go undetected due to the type being inferred. > > The lint is allowed by default as using `_` is less wordy than always > specifying the type. Always specifying the type is especially helpful in function call contexts where the inferred type may change at a distance. Specifying the type also allows Clippy to spot more cases of `useless_conversion`. The primary downside is the need to specify the type in trivial getters. There are 4 such functions: 3 have become slightly less ergonomic, 1 was revealed to be a `useless_conversion`. While this doesn't eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such conversions easier to scrutinize. It also has the slight benefit of removing a degree of freedom on which to bikeshed.

KBUILD_BUILTIN is set to 1 unless you are building only modules. KBUILD_MODULES is set to 1 when you are building only modules (a typical use case is "make modules"). It is more useful to set them to 'y' instead, so we can do something like: always-$(KBUILD_BUILTIN) += vmlinux.lds This works equivalently to: extra-y += vmlinux.lds This allows us to deprecate extra-y. extra-y and always-y are quite similar, and we do not need both.

Since commit 7273ad2b08f8 ("kbuild: link lib-y objects to vmlinux forcibly when CONFIG_MODULES=y"), all objects from lib-y have been forcibly linked to vmlinux when CONFIG_MODULES=y. To simplify future changes, this commit makes all objects from lib-y be linked regardless of the CONFIG_MODULES setting. Most use cases (CONFIG_MODULES=y) are not affected by this change. The vmlinux size with ARCH=arm allnoconfig, where CONFIG_MODULES=n, increases as follows: text data bss dec hex filename 1368644 835104 206288 2410036 24c634 vmlinux.before 1379440 837064 206288 2422792 24f808 vmlinux.after We no longer benefit from using static libraries, but the impact is mitigated by supporting CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION.

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.

2025-04-21gcc-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>
