f9569c6ce4 SPDX change for 7.1-rc1
Here is a single SPDX-like change for 7.1-rc1.  It explicitly allows the
 use of SPDX-FileCopyrightText which has been used already in many files.
 At the same time, update checkpatch to catch any "non allowed" spdx
 identifiers as we don't want to go overboard here.
 
 This has been in linux-next for a long time with no reported problems.

e728258deb Including fixes from Netfilter.
Steady stream of fixes. Last two weeks feel comparable to the two
 weeks before the merge window. Lots of AI-aided bug discovery.
 A newer big source is Sashiko/Gemini (Roman Gushchin's system),
 which points out issues in existing code during patch review
 (maybe 25% of fixes here likely originating from Sashiko).
 Nice thing is these are often fixed by the respective maintainers,
 not drive-bys.
 
 Current release - new code bugs:
 
  - kconfig: MDIO_PIC64HPSC should depend on ARCH_MICROCHIP
 
 Previous releases - regressions:
 
  - add async ndo_set_rx_mode and switch drivers which we promised
    to be called under the per-netdev mutex to it
 
  - dsa: remove duplicate netdev_lock_ops() for conduit ethtool ops
 
  - hv_sock: report EOF instead of -EIO for FIN
 
  - vsock/virtio: fix MSG_PEEK calculation on bytes to copy
 
 Previous releases - always broken:
 
  - ipv6: fix possible UAF in icmpv6_rcv()
 
  - icmp: validate reply type before using icmp_pointers
 
  - af_unix: drop all SCM attributes for SOCKMAP
 
  - netfilter: fix a number of bugs in the osf (OS fingerprinting)
 
  - eth: intel: fix timestamp interrupt configuration for E825C
 
 Misc:

Documentation/process: maintainer-soc: Document purpose of defconfigs
Common mistake in commit messages of patches on mailing list adding
CONFIG options to arm/multi_v7 or arm64/defconfig is saying what that
patch is doing, e.g. "Enable driver foo".  That is obvious from the diff
part, thus explaining it does not bring any value.  What brings value is
to understand why "driver foo" should be in a shared, upstream
defconfig, especially considering that distros have their own defconfigs
and we do not care about non-upstream trees.

It is obvious that one can ask DT maintainers of something, just like
one can ask anyone, so just drop the sentence.  Concise documents with

91a4855d6c Networking changes for 7.1.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Support HW queue leasing, allowing containers to be granted access
    to HW queues for zero-copy operations and AF_XDP.
 
  - Number of code moves to help the compiler with inlining.
    Avoid output arguments for returning drop reason where possible.
 
  - Rework drop handling within qdiscs to include more metadata
    about the reason and dropping qdisc in the tracepoints.
 
  - Remove the rtnl_lock use from IP Multicast Routing.
 
  - Pack size information into the Rx Flow Steering table pointer
    itself. This allows making the table itself a flat array of u32s,
    thus making the table allocation size a power of two.
 
  - Report TCP delayed ack timer information via socket diag.
 
  - Add ip_local_port_step_width sysctl to allow distributing the randomly
    selected ports more evenly throughout the allowed space.
 
  - Add support for per-route tunsrc in IPv6 segment routing.
 
  - Start work of switching sockopt handling to iov_iter.
 
  - Improve dynamic recvbuf sizing in MPTCP, limit burstiness and avoid
    buffer size drifting up.
 
  - Support MSG_EOR in MPTCP.
 
  - Add stp_mode attribute to the bridge driver for STP mode selection.
    This addresses concerns about call_usermodehelper() usage.
 
  - Remove UDP-Lite support (as announced in 2023).
 
  - Remove support for building IPv6 as a module.
    Remove the now unnecessary function calling indirection.
 
 Cross-tree stuff
 ----------------
 
  - Move Michael MIC code from generic crypto into wireless,
    it's considered insecure but some WiFi networks still need it.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Switch nft_fib_ipv6 module to no longer need temporary dst_entry
    object allocations by using fib6_lookup() + RCU.
    Florian W reports this gets us ~13% higher packet rate.
 
  - Convert IPVS's global __ip_vs_mutex to per-net service_mutex and
    switch the service tables to be per-net. Convert some code that
    walks the service lists to use RCU instead of the service_mutex.
 
  - Add more opinionated input validation to lower security exposure.
 
  - Make IPVS hash tables to be per-netns and resizable.
 
 Wireless
 --------
 
  - Finished assoc frame encryption/EPPKE/802.1X-over-auth.
 
  - Radar detection improvements.
 
  - Add 6 GHz incumbent signal detection APIs.
 
  - Multi-link support for FILS, probe response templates and
    client probing.
 
  - New APIs and mac80211 support for NAN (Neighbor Aware Networking,
    aka Wi-Fi Aware) so less work must be in firmware.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Add numerical ID for devlink instances (to avoid having to create
    fake bus/device pairs just to have an ID). Support shared devlink
    instances which span multiple PFs.
 
  - Add standard counters for reporting pause storm events
    (implement in mlx5 and fbnic).
 
  - Add configuration API for completion writeback buffering
    (implement in mana).
 
  - Support driver-initiated change of RSS context sizes.
 
  - Support DPLL monitoring input frequency (implement in zl3073x).
 
  - Support per-port resources in devlink (implement in mlx5).
 
 Misc
 ----
 
  - Expand the YAML spec for Netfilter.

26ff969926 Rust changes for v7.1
Toolchain and infrastructure:
 
  - Bump the minimum Rust version to 1.85.0 (and 'bindgen' to 0.71.1).
 
    As proposed in LPC 2025 and the Maintainers Summit [1], we are going
    to follow Debian Stable's Rust versions as our minimum versions.
 
    Debian Trixie was released on 2025-08-09 with a Rust 1.85.0 and
    'bindgen' 0.71.1 toolchain, which is a fair amount of time for e.g.
    kernel developers to upgrade.
 
    Other major distributions support a Rust version that is high enough
    as well, including:
 
      + Arch Linux.
      + Fedora Linux.
      + Gentoo Linux.
      + Nix.
      + openSUSE Slowroll and openSUSE Tumbleweed.
      + Ubuntu 25.10 and 26.04 LTS. In addition, 24.04 LTS using
        their versioned packages.
 
    The merged patch series comes with the associated cleanups and
    simplifications treewide that can be performed thanks to both bumps,
    as well as documentation updates.
 
    In addition, start using 'bindgen''s '--with-attribute-custom-enum'
    feature to set the 'cfi_encoding' attribute for the 'lru_status' enum
    used in Binder.
 
    Link: https://lwn.net/Articles/1050174/ [1]
 
  - Add experimental Kconfig option ('CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS') that
    inlines C helpers into Rust.
 
    Essentially, it performs a step similar to LTO, but just for the
    helpers, i.e. very local and fast.
 
    It relies on 'llvm-link' and its '--internalize' flag, and requires
    a compatible LLVM between Clang and 'rustc' (i.e. same major version,
    'CONFIG_RUSTC_CLANG_LLVM_COMPATIBLE'). It is only enabled for two
    architectures for now.
 
    The result is a measurable speedup in different workloads that
    different users have tested. For instance, for the null block driver,
    it amounts to a 2%.
 
  - Support global per-version flags.
 
    While we already have per-version flags in many places, we didn't
    have a place to set global ones that depend on the compiler version,
    i.e. in 'rust_common_flags', which sometimes is needed to e.g. tweak
    the lints set per version.
 
    Use that to allow the 'clippy::precedence' lint for Rust < 1.86.0,
    since it had a change in behavior.
 
  - Support overriding the crate name and apply it to Rust Binder, which
    wanted the module to be called 'rust_binder'.
 
  - Add the remaining '__rust_helper' annotations (started in the
    previous cycle).
 
 'kernel' crate:
 
  - Introduce the 'const_assert!' macro: a more powerful version of
    'static_assert!' that can refer to generics inside functions or
    implementation bodies, e.g.:
 
        fn f<const N: usize>() {
            const_assert!(N > 1);
        }
 
        fn g<T>() {
            const_assert!(size_of::<T>() > 0, "T cannot be ZST");
        }
 
    In addition, reorganize our set of build-time assertion macros
    ('{build,const,static_assert}!') to live in the 'build_assert'
    module.
 
    Finally, improve the docs as well to clarify how these are different
    from one another and how to pick the right one to use, and their
    equivalence (if any) to the existing C ones for extra clarity.
 
  - 'sizes' module: add 'SizeConstants' trait.
 
    This gives us typed 'SZ_*' constants (avoiding casts) for use in
    device address spaces where the address width depends on the hardware
    (e.g. 32-bit MMIO windows, 64-bit GPU framebuffers, etc.), e.g.:
 
        let gpu_heap = 14 * u64::SZ_1M;
        let mmio_window = u32::SZ_16M;
 
  - 'clk' module: implement 'Send' and 'Sync' for 'Clk' and thus simplify
    the users in Tyr and PWM.
 
  - 'ptr' module: add 'const_align_up'.
 
  - 'str' module: improve the documentation of the 'c_str!' macro to
    explain that one should only use it for non-literal cases (for the
    other case we instead use C string literals, e.g. 'c"abc"').
 
  - Disallow the use of 'CStr::{as_ptr,from_ptr}' and clean one such use
    in the 'task' module.
 
  - 'sync' module: finish the move of 'ARef' and 'AlwaysRefCounted'
    outside of the 'types' module, i.e. update the last remaining
    instances and finally remove the re-exports.
 
  - 'error' module: clarify that 'from_err_ptr' can return 'Ok(NULL)',
    including runtime-tested examples.
 
    The intention is to hopefully prevent UB that assumes the result of
    the function is not 'NULL' if successful. This originated from a case
    of UB I noticed in 'regulator' that created a 'NonNull' on it.
 
 Timekeeping:
 
  - Expand the example section in the 'HrTimer' documentation.
 
  - Mark the 'ClockSource' trait as unsafe to ensure valid values for
    'ktime_get()'.
 
  - Add 'Delta::from_nanos()'.
 
 'pin-init' crate:
 
  - Replace the 'Zeroable' impls for 'Option<NonZero*>' with impls of
    'ZeroableOption' for 'NonZero*'.
 
  - Improve feature gate handling for unstable features.
 
  - Declutter the documentation of implementations of 'Zeroable' for
    tuples.
 
  - Replace uses of 'addr_of[_mut]!' with '&raw [mut]'.
 
 rust-analyzer:
 
  - Add type annotations to 'generate_rust_analyzer.py'.
 
  - Add support for scripts written in Rust ('generate_rust_target.rs',
    'rustdoc_test_builder.rs', 'rustdoc_test_gen.rs').
 
  - Refactor 'generate_rust_analyzer.py' to explicitly identify host and
    target crates, improve readability, and reduce duplication.
 
 And some other fixes, cleanups and improvements.

c3a00a3f31 rust: bump bindgen minimum supported version to 0.71.1 (Debian Trixie)
As proposed in the past in e.g. LPC 2025 and the Maintainers Summit [1],
we are going to follow Debian Stable's `bindgen` versions as our minimum
supported version.

Debian Trixie was released with `bindgen` 0.71.1, which it still uses
to this day [2].

Debian Trixie's release happened on 2025-08-09 [3], which means that a
fair amount of time has passed since its release for kernel developers
to upgrade.

Thus bump the minimum to the new version.

Then, in later commits, clean up most of the workarounds and other bits
that this upgrade of the minimum allows us.

Ubuntu 25.10 also has a recent enough `bindgen` [4] (even the already
unsupported Ubuntu 25.04 had it), and they also provide versioned packages
with `bindgen` 0.71.1 back to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS [5].

f32fb9c58a rust: bump Rust minimum supported version to 1.85.0 (Debian Trixie)
As proposed in the past in e.g. LPC 2025 and the Maintainers Summit [1],
we are going to follow Debian Stable's Rust versions as our minimum
supported version.

Debian Trixie was released with a Rust 1.85.0 toolchain [2], which it
still uses to this day [3] (i.e. no update to Rust 1.85.1).

Debian Trixie's release happened on 2025-08-09 [4], which means that a
fair amount of time has passed since its release for kernel developers
to upgrade.

Thus bump the minimum to the new version.

Then, in later commits, clean up most of the workarounds and other bits
that this upgrade of the minimum allows us.

pin-init was left as-is since the patches come from upstream. And the
vendored crates are unmodified, since we do not want to change those.

Note that the minimum LLVM major version for Rust 1.85.0 is LLVM 18 (the
Rust upstream binaries use LLVM 19.1.7), thus e.g. `RUSTC_LLVM_VERSION`
tests can also be updated, but there are no suitable ones to simplify.

Ubuntu 25.10 also has a recent enough Rust toolchain [5], and they also
provide versioned packages with a Rust 1.85.1 toolchain even back to
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS [6].

f387e2e2b9 Documentation: fix two typos in latest update to the security report howto
In previous patch "Documentation: clarify the mandatory and desirable
info for security reports" I left two typos that I didn't detect in local
checks. One is "get_maintainers.pl" (no 's' in the script name), and the
other one is a missing closing quote after "Reported-by", which didn't
have effect here but I don't know if it can break rendering elsewhere
(e.g. on the public HTML page). Better fix it before it gets merged.

496fa1befb Documentation: clarify the mandatory and desirable info for security reports
A significant part of the effort of the security team consists in begging
reporters for patch proposals, or asking them to provide them in regular
format, and most of the time they're willing to provide this, they just
didn't know that it would help. So let's add a section detailing the
required and desirable contents in a security report to help reporters
write more actionable reports which do not require round trips.

a72b832a48 Documentation: explain how to find maintainers addresses for security reports
These days, 80% of the work done by the security team consists in
locating the affected subsystem in a report, running get_maintainers on
it, forwarding the report to these persons and responding to the reporter
with them in Cc. This is a huge and unneeded overhead that we must try to
lower for a better overall efficiency. This patch adds a complete section
explaining how to figure the list of recipients to send the report to.

d20e945e9f docs: handling-regressions: add, trim, and sort quotes from Linus
Add additional quotes from Linus while trimming the existing ones and
sorting them all into categories. That makes it easier for new
developers and maintainers to look up how Linus expects certain
situations wrt regressions to be handled. The earlier sections in the
document already explain this, but those parts are often questioned --
or not considered authoritative at all and plainly ignored. Having it
straight from the horse's mouth helps get everyone on the same page,
even if that makes the document quite a bit longer (the raw line count
of this section doubles, but the number of characters increases by
nearly 50%). In return, this covers a lot more aspects and, due to the
sub-headings, is easier to navigate.

In contrast to the more neutral description in the early sections of the
document, this also provides a better insight into how serious Linus is
about the "no regressions" rule and how he wants it to be interpreted in
practice; this makes it easier for new developers and maintainers to
understand things and prevent run-ins with higher-level maintainers.

Linus Torvalds
a9aabb3b83 Rust changes for v6.20 / v7.0
Toolchain and infrastructure:
 
  - Add '__rust_helper' annotation to the C helpers.
 
    This is needed to inline these helpers into Rust code.
 
  - Remove imports available via the prelude, treewide.
 
    This was possible thanks to a new lint in Klint that Gary has
    implemented -- more Klint-related changes, including initial upstream
    support, are coming.
 
  - Deduplicate pin-init flags.
 
 'kernel' crate:
 
  - Add support for calling a function exactly once with the new
    'do_once_lite!' macro (and 'OnceLite' type).
 
    Based on this, add 'pr_*_once!' macros to print only once.
 
  - Add 'impl_flags!' macro for defining common bitflags operations:
 
        impl_flags!(
            /// Represents multiple permissions.
            #[derive(Debug, Clone, Default, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
            pub struct Permissions(u32);
 
            /// Represents a single permission.
            #[derive(Debug, Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
            pub enum Permission {
                /// Read permission.
                Read = 1 << 0,
 
                /// Write permission.
                Write = 1 << 1,
 
                /// Execute permission.
                Execute = 1 << 2,
            }
        );
 
        let mut f: Permissions = Permission::Read | Permission::Write;
        assert!(f.contains(Permission::Read));
        assert!(!f.contains(Permission::Execute));
 
        f |= Permission::Execute;
        assert!(f.contains(Permission::Execute));
 
        let f2: Permissions = Permission::Write | Permission::Execute;
        assert!((f ^ f2).contains(Permission::Read));
        assert!(!(f ^ f2).contains(Permission::Write));
 
  - 'bug' module: support 'CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE_DETAILED' in the
    'warn_on!' macro in order to show the evaluated condition alongside
    the file path:
 
         ------------[ cut here ]------------
         WARNING: [val == 1] linux/samples/rust/rust_minimal.rs:27 at ...
         Modules linked in: rust_minimal(+)
 
  - Add safety module with 'unsafe_precondition_assert!' macro, currently
    a wrapper for 'debug_assert!', intended to mark the validation of
    safety preconditions where possible:
 
        /// # Safety
        ///
        /// The caller must ensure that `index` is less than `N`.
        unsafe fn set_unchecked(&mut self, index: usize, value: T) {
            unsafe_precondition_assert!(
                index < N,
                "set_unchecked() requires index ({index}) < N ({N})"
            );
 
            ...
        }
 
  - Add instructions to 'build_assert!' documentation requesting to
    always inline functions when used with function arguments.
 
  - 'ptr' module: replace 'build_assert!' with a 'const' one.
 
  - 'rbtree' module: reduce unsafe blocks on pointer derefs.
 
  - 'transmute' module: implement 'FromBytes' and 'AsBytes' for
    inhabited ZSTs, and use it in Nova.
 
  - More treewide replacements of 'c_str!' with C string literals.
 
 'macros' crate:
 
  - Rewrite most procedural macros ('module!', 'concat_idents!',
    '#[export]', '#[vtable]', '#[kunit_tests]') to use the 'syn' parsing
    library which we introduced last cycle, with better diagnostics.
 
    This also allows to support '#[cfg]' properly in the '#[vtable]'
    macro, to support arbitrary types in 'module!' macro (not just an
    identifier) and to remove several custom parsing helpers we had.
 
  - Use 'quote!' from the recently vendored 'quote' library and remove
    our custom one.
 
    The vendored one also allows us to avoid quoting '"' and '{}' inside
    the template anymore and editors can now highlight it. In addition,
    it improves robustness as it eliminates the need for string quoting
    and escaping.
 
  - Use 'pin_init::zeroed()' to simplify KUnit code.
 
 'pin-init' crate:
 
  - Rewrite all procedural macros ('[pin_]init!', '#[pin_data]',
    '#[pinned_drop]', 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)') to use the 'syn' parsing
    library which we introduced last cycle, with better diagnostics.
 
  - Implement 'InPlaceWrite' for '&'static mut MaybeUninit<T>'. This
    enables users to use external allocation mechanisms such as
    'static_cell'.
 
  - Support tuple structs in 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)'.
 
  - Support attributes on fields in '[pin_]init!' (such as
    '#[cfg(...)]').
 
  - Add a '#[default_error(<type>)]' attribute to '[pin_]init!' to
    override the default error (when no '? Error' is specified).
 
  - Support packed structs in '[pin_]init!' with
    '#[disable_initialized_field_access]'.
 
  - Remove 'try_[pin_]init!' in favor of merging their feature
    with '[pin_]init!'. Update the kernel's own 'try_[pin_]init!'
    macros to use the 'default_error' attribute.
 
  - Correct 'T: Sized' bounds to 'T: ?Sized' in the generated
    'PinnedDrop' check by '#[pin_data]'.
 
 Documentation:
 
  - Conclude the Rust experiment.
 
 MAINTAINERS:
 
  - Add "RUST [RUST-ANALYZER]" entry for the rust-analyzer support. Tamir
    and Jesung will take care of it. They have both been active around it
    for a while. The new tree will flow through the Rust one.
 
  - Add Gary as maintainer for "RUST [PIN-INIT]".
 
  - Update Boqun and Tamir emails to their kernel.org accounts.
 
 And a few other cleanups and improvements.

   - Add instructions to 'build_assert!' documentation requesting to
     always inline functions when used with function arguments

   - 'ptr' module: replace 'build_assert!' with a 'const' one

   - 'rbtree' module: reduce unsafe blocks on pointer derefs

   - 'transmute' module: implement 'FromBytes' and 'AsBytes' for
     inhabited ZSTs, and use it in Nova

   - More treewide replacements of 'c_str!' with C string literals

  'macros' crate:

   - Rewrite most procedural macros ('module!', 'concat_idents!',
     '#[export]', '#[vtable]', '#[kunit_tests]') to use the 'syn'
     parsing library which we introduced last cycle, with better
     diagnostics

     This also allows to support '#[cfg]' properly in the '#[vtable]'
     macro, to support arbitrary types in 'module!' macro (not just an
     identifier) and to remove several custom parsing helpers we had

   - Use 'quote!' from the recently vendored 'quote' library and remove
     our custom one

     The vendored one also allows us to avoid quoting '"' and '{}'
     inside the template anymore and editors can now highlight it. In
     addition, it improves robustness as it eliminates the need for
     string quoting and escaping

   - Use 'pin_init::zeroed()' to simplify KUnit code

  'pin-init' crate:

   - Rewrite all procedural macros ('[pin_]init!', '#[pin_data]',
     '#[pinned_drop]', 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)') to use the 'syn'
     parsing library which we introduced last cycle, with better
     diagnostics

   - Implement 'InPlaceWrite' for '&'static mut MaybeUninit<T>'. This
     enables users to use external allocation mechanisms such as
     'static_cell'

   - Support tuple structs in 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)'

   - Support attributes on fields in '[pin_]init!' (such as
     '#[cfg(...)]')

   - Add a '#[default_error(<type>)]' attribute to '[pin_]init!' to
     override the default error (when no '? Error' is specified)

   - Support packed structs in '[pin_]init!' with
     '#[disable_initialized_field_access]'

   - Remove 'try_[pin_]init!' in favor of merging their feature with
     '[pin_]init!'. Update the kernel's own 'try_[pin_]init!' macros to
     use the 'default_error' attribute

   - Correct 'T: Sized' bounds to 'T: ?Sized' in the generated
     'PinnedDrop' check by '#[pin_data]'

  Documentation:

   - Conclude the Rust experiment

  MAINTAINERS:

   - Add "RUST [RUST-ANALYZER]" entry for the rust-analyzer support.
     Tamir and Jesung will take care of it. They have both been active
     around it for a while. The new tree will flow through the Rust one

   - Add Gary as maintainer for "RUST [PIN-INIT]"

   - Update Boqun and Tamir emails to their kernel.org accounts

Merge tag 'kmalloc_obj-v7.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

Pull kmalloc_obj updates from Kees Cook:
 "Introduce the kmalloc_obj* family of APIs for switching to type-based
  kmalloc allocations, away from purely size-based allocations.
  Discussed on lkml, with you, and at Linux Plumbers. It's been in -next
  for the entire dev cycle.

  Before the merge window closes, I'd like to send the treewide
  change (generated from the Coccinelle script included here), which
  mechanically converts almost 20k callsites from kmalloc* to
  kmalloc_obj*:

   8007 files changed, 19980 insertions(+), 20838 deletions(-)

  This change needed fixes for mismatched types (since now the return
  type from allocations is a pointer to the requested type, not "void
  *"), and I've been fixing these over the last 4 releases.

  These fixes have mostly been trivial mismatches with const qualifiers
  or accidentally identical sizes (e.g. same object size: "struct kvec"
  vs "struct iovec", or differing pointers to pointers), but I did catch
  one case of too-small allocation.

  Summary:

   - Introduce kmalloc_obj*() family of type-based allocator APIs

   - checkpatch: Suggest kmalloc_obj family for sizeof allocations

   - coccinelle: Add kmalloc_objs conversion script"

a592a36e49 Documentation: use a source-read extension for the index link boilerplate
The root document usually has a special :ref:`genindex` link to the
generated index. This is also the case for Documentation/index.rst. The
other index.rst files deeper in the directory hierarchy usually don't.

For SPHINXDIRS builds, the root document isn't Documentation/index.rst,
but some other index.rst in the hierarchy. Currently they have a
".. only::" block to add the index link when doing SPHINXDIRS html
builds.

This is obviously very tedious and repetitive. The link is also added to
all index.rst files in the hierarchy for SPHINXDIRS builds, not just the
root document.

Put the boilerplate in a sphinx-includes/subproject-index.rst file, and
include it at the end of the root document for subproject builds in an
ad-hoc source-read extension defined in conf.py.

For now, keep having the boilerplate in translations, because this
approach currently doesn't cover translated index link headers.

a66437c279 Documentation: Provide guidelines for tool-generated content
In the last few years, the capabilities of coding tools have exploded.
As those capabilities have expanded, contributors and maintainers have
more and more questions about how and when to apply those
capabilities.

Add new Documentation to guide contributors on how to best use kernel
development tools, new and old.

Note, though, there are fundamentally no new or unique rules in this
new document. It clarifies expectations that the kernel community has
had for many years. For example, researchers are already asked to
disclose the tools they use to find issues by
Documentation/process/researcher-guidelines.rst. This new document
just reiterates existing best practices for development tooling.

In short: Please show your work and make sure your contribution is
easy to review.

Changes from v5:
 * Add more review tags
 * Add a blurb to the "special" asks bullet to mention that extra
   testing may be requested.
 * Reword the closing paragraph of "Out of Scope" section for clarity
 * Remove an "AI" and make small wording tweak (Jon)

Changes from v4:
 * Modest tweaking and rewording to strengthen language
 * Add a section to help alleviate concerns that the document would
   not enable maintainers to act forcefully enough in the face of
   high-volume low-quality contributions (aka. AI slop).
   This is very close to some text that Lorenzo posted. I just
   made some very minor wording tweaks and spelling fixes.
 * Note: v4 mistakenly had "v3" in the subject

Changes from v3:
 * Wording/formatting tweaks (Randy)

Changes from v2:
 * Mention testing (Shuah)
 * Remove "very", rename LLM => coding assistant (Dan)
 * More formatting sprucing up and minor typos (Miguel)
 * Make changelog and text less flashy (Christian)
 * Tone down critical=>helpful (Neil)

Changes from v1:
 * Rename to generated-content.rst and add to documentation index.
   (Jon)
 * Rework subject to align with the new filename
 * Replace commercial names with generic ones. (Jon)
 * Be consistent about punctuation at the end of bullets for whole
   sentences. (Miguel)
 * Formatting sprucing up and minor typos (Miguel)

This document was a collaborative effort from all the members of
the TAB. I just reformatted it into .rst and wrote the changelog.

9fa7153c31 rust: conclude the Rust experiment
The Rust support was merged in v6.1 into mainline in order to help
determine whether Rust as a language was suitable for the kernel,
i.e. worth the tradeoffs, technically, procedurally and socially.

At the 2025 Linux Kernel Maintainers Summit, the experiment has just
been deemed concluded [1].

Thus remove the section -- it was not fully true already anyway, since
there are already uses of Rust in production out there, some well-known
Linux distributions enable it and it is already in millions of devices
via Android.

Obviously, this does not mean that everything works for every kernel
configuration, architecture, toolchain etc., or that there won't be
new issues. There is still a ton of work to do in all areas, from the
kernel to upstream Rust, GCC and other projects. And, in fact, certain
combinations (such as the mixed GCC+LLVM builds and the upcoming GCC
support) are still quite experimental but getting there.

But the experiment is done, i.e. Rust is here to stay.

I hope this signals commitment from the kernel to companies and other
entities to invest more into it, e.g. into giving time to their kernel
developers to train themselves in Rust.

Thanks to the many kernel maintainers that gave the project their
support and patience throughout these years, and to the many other
developers, whether in the kernel or in other projects, that have
made this possible. I had a long list of 173 names in the credits of
the original pull that merged the support into the kernel [2], and now
such a list would be way longer, so I will not even try to compose one,
but again, thanks a lot, everybody.

ff77379468 docs: netdev: refine 15-patch limit
The 15 patch limit is intended by the maintainers to cover
all outstanding patches on the mailing list on a per-tree basis.
Not just those in a single patchset. Document this practice accordingly.

e5b1c0fa4f Documentation: Remove :manpage: from non-existing man pages
Removing :manpage: from non-existing man pages (xyzzy(2), xyzzyat(2),
fxyzzy(3) in adding-syscalls.rst, including translations) prevent
adding link to nonexisting man pages when using manpages_url in next
commit.

While at it, add also missing '(2)' in sp_SP translation.
