kbuild: distributed build support for Clang ThinLTO
Add distributed ThinLTO build support for the Linux kernel.
This new mode offers several advantages: (1) Increased
flexibility in handling user-specified build options.
(2) Improved user-friendliness for developers. (3) Greater
convenience for integrating with objtool and livepatch.

Note that "distributed" in this context refers to a term
that differentiates in-process ThinLTO builds by invoking
backend compilation through the linker, not necessarily
building in distributed environments.

Distributed ThinLTO is enabled via the
`CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN_DIST` Kconfig option. For example:
 > make LLVM=1 defconfig
 > scripts/config -e LTO_CLANG_THIN_DIST
 > make LLVM=1 oldconfig
 > make LLVM=1 vmlinux -j <..>

The build flow proceeds in four stages:
  1. Perform FE compilation, mirroring the in-process ThinLTO mode.
  2. Thin-link the generated IR files and object files.
  3. Find all IR files and perform BE compilation, using the flags
    stored in the .*.o.cmd files.
  4. Link the BE results to generate the final vmlinux.o.

NOTE: This patch currently implements the build for the main kernel
image (vmlinux) only. Kernel module support is planned for a
subsequent patch.

Tested on the following arch: x86, arm64, loongarch, and
riscv.

56cb9b7d96 gcov: use atomic counter updates to fix concurrent access crashes
GCC's GCOV instrumentation can merge global branch counters with loop
induction variables as an optimization.  In inflate_fast(), the inner copy
loops get transformed so that the GCOV counter value is loaded multiple
times to compute the loop base address, start index, and end bound.  Since
GCOV counters are global (not per-CPU), concurrent execution on different
CPUs causes the counter to change between loads, producing inconsistent
values and out-of-bounds memory writes.

The crash manifests during IPComp (IP Payload Compression) processing when
inflate_fast() runs concurrently on multiple CPUs:

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffd0a3c0902ffa
  RIP: inflate_fast+1431
  Call Trace:
   zlib_inflate
   __deflate_decompress
   crypto_comp_decompress
   ipcomp_decompress [xfrm_ipcomp]
   ipcomp_input [xfrm_ipcomp]
   xfrm_input

At the crash point, the compiler generated three loads from the same
global GCOV counter (__gcov0.inflate_fast+216) to compute base, start, and
end for an indexed loop.  Another CPU modified the counter between loads,
making the values inconsistent - the write went 3.4 MB past a 65 KB
buffer.

Add -fprofile-update=prefer-atomic to CFLAGS_GCOV at the global level in
the top-level Makefile, guarded by a try-run compile test.  The test
compiles a minimal program with and without -fprofile-update=prefer-atomic
using the full KBUILD_CFLAGS, then compares undefined symbols in the
resulting object files.  If prefer-atomic introduces new undefined
references (such as __atomic_fetch_add_8 on i386 or __aarch64_ldadd8_relax
on arm64 with outline-atomics), the flag is not added -- the kernel does
not link against libatomic.

On architectures where GCC inlines 64-bit atomic counter updates (x86_64,
s390, ...) the test passes and the flag is enabled, preventing the
compiler from merging counters with loop induction variables and fixing
the observed concurrent-access crash.

On architectures where the flag would introduce libatomic dependencies, it
is silently omitted and behaviour is no worse than before this patch.

Move the CFLAGS_GCOV block from its original position (before the arch
Makefile include) to after the core KBUILD_CFLAGS assignments but before
the scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins include.  This placement ensures the
try-run test sees arch-specific flags (-m32, -march=,
-mno-outline-atomics) while avoiding GCC plugin flags (-fplugin=) that
would break the test on clean builds when plugin shared objects do not yet
exist.

4a44b17406 rust: kasan/kbuild: fix rustc-option when cross-compiling
The Makefile version of rustc-option currently checks whether the option
exists for the host target instead of the target actually being compiled
for. It was done this way in commit 46e24a545c ("rust: kasan/kbuild:
fix missing flags on first build") to avoid a circular dependency on
target.json. However, because of this, rustc-option currently does not
function when cross-compiling from x86_64 to aarch64 if
CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK is enabled. This is because KBUILD_RUSTFLAGS
contains -Zfixed-x18 under this configuration. Since that flag does not
exist on the host target, rustc-option runs into a compilation failure
every time, leading to all flags being rejected as unsupported.

To fix this, update rustc-option to pass a --target parameter so that
the host target is not used. For targets using target.json, use a
built-in target that is as close as possible to the target created with
target.json to avoid the circular dependency on target.json.

One scenario where this causes a boot failure:
* Cross-compiled from x86_64 to aarch64.
* With CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK=y
* With CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS=y
* With CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=n
Then the resulting kernel image will fail to boot when it first calls
into Rust code with a crash along the lines of "Unable to handle kernel
paging request at virtual address 0ffffffc08541796". This is because the
call threshold is not specified, so rustc will inline kasan operations,
but the kasan shadow offset is not specified, which leads to the inlined
kasan instructions being incorrect.

Note that the -Zsanitizer=kernel-hwaddress parameter itself does not
lead to a rustc-option failure despite being aarch64-specific because
RUSTFLAGS_KASAN has not yet been added to KBUILD_RUSTFLAGS when
rustc-option is evaluated by the kasan Makefile.

feb662d916 slab: support for compiler-assisted type-based slab cache partitioning
Rework the general infrastructure around RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES into more
flexible KMALLOC_PARTITION_CACHES, with the former being a partitioning
mode of the latter.

Introduce a new mode, KMALLOC_PARTITION_TYPED, which leverages a feature
available in Clang 22 and later, called "allocation tokens" via
__builtin_infer_alloc_token() [1]. Unlike KMALLOC_PARTITION_RANDOM
(formerly RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES), this mode deterministically assigns a
slab cache to an allocation of type T, regardless of allocation site.

The builtin __builtin_infer_alloc_token(<malloc-args>, ...) instructs
the compiler to infer an allocation type from arguments commonly passed
to memory-allocating functions and returns a type-derived token ID. The
implementation passes kmalloc-args to the builtin: the compiler performs
best-effort type inference, and then recognizes common patterns such as
`kmalloc(sizeof(T), ...)`, `kmalloc(sizeof(T) * n, ...)`, but also
`(T *)kmalloc(...)`. Where the compiler fails to infer a type the
fallback token (default: 0) is chosen.

Note: kmalloc_obj(..) APIs fix the pattern how size and result type are
expressed, and therefore ensures there's not much drift in which
patterns the compiler needs to recognize. Specifically, kmalloc_obj()
and friends expand to `(TYPE *)KMALLOC(__obj_size, GFP)`, which the
compiler recognizes via the cast to TYPE*.

Clang's default token ID calculation is described as [1]:

   typehashpointersplit: This mode assigns a token ID based on the hash
   of the allocated type's name, where the top half ID-space is reserved
   for types that contain pointers and the bottom half for types that do
   not contain pointers.

Separating pointer-containing objects from pointerless objects and data
allocations can help mitigate certain classes of memory corruption
exploits [2]: attackers who gains a buffer overflow on a primitive
buffer cannot use it to directly corrupt pointers or other critical
metadata in an object residing in a different, isolated heap region.

It is important to note that heap isolation strategies offer a
best-effort approach, and do not provide a 100% security guarantee,
albeit achievable at relatively low performance cost. Note that this
also does not prevent cross-cache attacks: while waiting for future
features like SLAB_VIRTUAL [3] to provide physical page isolation, this
feature should be deployed alongside SHUFFLE_PAGE_ALLOCATOR and
init_on_free=1 to mitigate cross-cache attacks and page-reuse attacks as
much as possible today.

With all that, my kernel (x86 defconfig) shows me a histogram of slab
cache object distribution per /proc/slabinfo (after boot):

  <slab cache>      <objs> <hist>
  kmalloc-part-15    1465  ++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-14    2988  +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-13    1656  ++++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-12    1045  ++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-11    1697  ++++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-10    1489  ++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-09     965  +++++++++
  kmalloc-part-08     710  +++++++
  kmalloc-part-07     100  +
  kmalloc-part-06     217  ++
  kmalloc-part-05     105  +
  kmalloc-part-04    4047  ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  kmalloc-part-03     183  +
  kmalloc-part-02     283  ++
  kmalloc-part-01     316  +++
  kmalloc            1422  ++++++++++++++

The above /proc/slabinfo snapshot shows me there are 6673 allocated
objects (slabs 00 - 07) that the compiler claims contain no pointers or
it was unable to infer the type of, and 12015 objects that contain
pointers (slabs 08 - 15). On a whole, this looks relatively sane.

Additionally, when I compile my kernel with -Rpass=alloc-token, which
provides diagnostics where (after dead-code elimination) type inference
failed, I see 186 allocation sites where the compiler failed to identify
a type (down from 966 when I sent the RFC [4]). Some initial review
confirms these are mostly variable sized buffers, but also include
structs with trailing flexible length arrays.

The lint does not have much upside -- when the suggestion may be a good
one, it would still read fine when nested anyway. And it is the kind of
lint that may easily bias people to just apply the suggestion instead
of allowing it.

[ In addition, as Gary points out [3], the suggestion is also wrong [4] and

   actual cross-compile builds

 - Never respect CONFIG_WERROR / W=e to fixdep

kbuild: Never respect CONFIG_WERROR / W=e to fixdep
The fixdep hostprog may be built multiple times during a single build.
Once during the configuration phase and later during the regular phase.
As only the regular build phase respects CONFIG_WERROR / W=e, the
compiler flags might change between the phases, leading to rebuilds.

Example, the rebuilds will happen twice on each invocation of the build:

  $ make allyesconfig prepare
  make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/deleteme'
    HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
  #
  # No change to .config
  #
    HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
    DESCEND objtool
    INSTALL libsubcmd_headers
  make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/deleteme'

Fix the compilation flags used for scripts/basic/ before
scripts/Makefile.warn is evaluated to stop CONFIG_WERROR / W=e
influencing the fixdep build to avoid the spurious rebuilds.

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.

Merge tag 'rust-timekeeping-for-v7.1' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux into rust-next

Pull timekeeping updates from Andreas Hindborg:

 - 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()'.

This is a back merge since the pull request has a newer base -- we will
avoid that in the future.

And, given it is a back merge, it happens to resolve the "subtle" conflict
around '--remap-path-{prefix,scope}' that I discussed in linux-next [1],
plus a few other common conflicts. The result matches what we did for
next-20260407.

The actual diffstat (i.e. using a temporary merge of upstream first) is:

kbuild: expand inlining hints with -fdiagnostics-show-inlining-chain
Clang recently added -fdiagnostics-show-inlining-chain [1] to improve
the visibility of inlining chains in diagnostics. This is particularly
useful for CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE where detections can happen deep in
inlined functions.

Add this flag to KBUILD_CFLAGS under a cc-option so it is enabled if the
compiler supports it. Note that GCC does not have an equivalent flag as
it supports a similar diagnostic structure unconditionally.

2e2f8b5a06 rust: kbuild: allow clippy::precedence for Rust < 1.86.0
The Clippy `precedence` lint was extended in Rust 1.85.0 to include
bitmasking and shift operations [1]. However, because it generated
many hits, in Rust 1.86.0 it was split into a new `precedence_bits`
lint which is not enabled by default [2].

In other words, only Rust 1.85 has a different behavior. For instance,
it reports:

    warning: operator precedence can trip the unwary

    17 +             << FLUSH_SYSMEM_ADDR_SHIFT_HI)
       |

While so far we try our best to keep all versions Clippy-clean, the
minimum (which is now Rust 1.85.0 after the bump) and the latest stable
are the most important ones; and this may be considered a "false positive"
with respect to the behavior in other versions.

Thus allow this lint for this version using the per-version flags
mechanism introduced in the previous commit.

b2aa1535ec rust: kbuild: support global per-version flags
Sometimes it is useful to gate global Rust flags per compiler version.
For instance, we may want to disable a lint that has false positives in
a single version [1].

We already had helpers like `rustc-min-version` for that, which we use
elsewhere, but we cannot currently use them for `rust_common_flags`,
which contains the global flags for all Rust code (kernel and host),
because `rustc-min-version` depends on `CONFIG_RUSTC_VERSION`, which
does not exist when `rust_common_flags` is defined.

Thus, to support that, introduce `rust_common_flags_per_version`,
defined after the `include/config/auto.conf` inclusion (where
`CONFIG_RUSTC_VERSION` becomes available), and append it to
`rust_common_flags`, `KBUILD_HOSTRUSTFLAGS` and `KBUILD_RUSTFLAGS`.

In addition, move the expansion of `HOSTRUSTFLAGS` to the same place,
so that users can also override per-version flags [2].

7ed188605e rust: allow globally clippy::incompatible_msrv
`clippy::incompatible_msrv` is not buying us much, and we discussed
allowing it several times in the past.

For instance, there was recently another patch sent to `allow` it where
needed [1]. While that particular case would not be needed after the
minimum version bump to 1.85.0, it is simpler to just allow it to prevent
future instances.

[ In addition, the lint fired without taking into account the features
  that have been enabled in a crate [2]. While this was improved in Rust
  1.90.0 [3], it would still fire in a case like this patch. ]

Thus do so, and remove the last instance of locally allowing it we have
in the tree (except the one in the vendored `proc_macro2` crate).

Note that we still keep the `msrv` config option in `clippy.toml` since
that affects other lints as well.

    198 +         t => panic!("Unsupported parameter type {t}"),
        |

The reason it only triggers in that version is that the lint was moved
from `pedantic` to `style` in Rust 1.88.0 and then back to `pedantic`
in Rust 1.89.0 [2][3].

In the first case, the suggestion is fair and a pure simplification, thus
we will clean it up separately.

To keep the behavior the same across all versions, and since the lint
does not work for all macros (e.g. custom ones like `pr_info!`), disable
it globally.

3a2486cc1d kbuild: rust: provide an option to inline C helpers into Rust
A new experimental Kconfig option, `RUST_INLINE_HELPERS` is added to
allow C helpers (which were created to allow Rust to call into
inline/macro C functions without having to re-implement the logic in
Rust) to be inlined into Rust crates without performing global LTO.

If the option is enabled, the following is performed:
* For helpers, instead of compiling them to an object file to be linked
  into vmlinux, they're compiled to LLVM IR bitcode. Two versions are
  generated: one for built-in code (`helpers.bc`) and one for modules
  (`helpers_module.bc`, with -DMODULE defined). This ensures that C
  macros/inlines that behave differently for modules (e.g. static calls)
  function correctly when inlined.
* When a Rust crate or object is compiled, instead of generating an
  object file, LLVM bitcode is generated.
* llvm-link is invoked with --internalize to combine the helper bitcode
  with the crate bitcode. This step is similar to LTO, but this is much
  faster since it only needs to inline the helpers.
* clang is invoked to turn the combined bitcode into a final object file.
* Since clang may produce LLVM bitcode when LTO is enabled, and objtool
  requires ELF input, $(cmd_ld_single) is invoked to ensure the object
  is converted to ELF before objtool runs.

The --internalize flag tells llvm-link to treat all symbols in
helpers.bc using `internal` linkage [1]. This matches the behavior of
`clang` on `static inline` functions, and avoids exporting the symbol
from the object file.

To ensure that RUST_INLINE_HELPERS is not incompatible with BTF, we pass
the -g0 flag when building helpers. See commit 5daa0c35a1 ("rust:
Disallow BTF generation with Rust + LTO") for details.

We have an intended triple mismatch of `aarch64-unknown-none` vs
`aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`, so we pass --suppress-warnings to llvm-link
to suppress it.

I considered adding some sort of check that KBUILD_MODNAME is not
present in helpers_module.bc, but this is actually not so easy to carry
out because .bc files store strings in a weird binary format, so you
cannot just grep it for a string to check whether it ended up using
KBUILD_MODNAME anywhere.

[ Andreas writes:

    For the rnull driver, enabling helper inlining with this patch
    gives an average speedup of 2% over the set of 120 workloads that
    we publish on [2].

    Link: https://rust-for-linux.com/null-block-driver [2]

  This series also uncovered a pre-existing UB instance thanks to an
  `objtool` warning which I noticed while testing the series (details
  in the mailing list).

[ Some changes, apart from the rebase:

  - Added "(EXPERIMENTAL)" to Kconfig as the commit mentions.

  - Added `depends on ARM64 || X86_64` and `!UML` for now, since this is
    experimental, other architectures may require other changes (e.g.
    the issues I mentioned in the mailing list for ARM and UML) and they
    are not really tested so far. So let arch maintainers pick this up
    if they think it is worth it.

  - Gated the `cmd_ld_single` step also into the new mode, which also
    means that any possible future `objcopy` step is done after the
    translation, as expected.

  - Added `.gitignore` for `.bc` with exception for existing script.

  - Added `part-of-*` for helpers bitcode files as discussed, and
    dropped `$(if $(filter %_module.bc,$@),-DMODULE)` since `-DMODULE`
    is already there (would be duplicated otherwise).

  - Moved `LLVM_LINK` to keep binutils list alphabetized.

  - Fixed typo in title.

  - Dropped second `cmd_ld_single` commit message paragraph.

kbuild: reduce output spam when building out of tree
The execution of $(call cmd,makefile) will print 'GEN Makefile' on each
build, even if the Makefile is not effectively changed.

Use a filechk command instead, so a message is only printed on changes.

The Makefile is now created even if the build is aborted due to an
unclean working tree. That should not make a difference in practice.

kbuild: Reduce the number of compiler-generated suffixes for clang thin-lto build
The current clang thin-lto build often produces lots of symbols with
suffix. The following is a partial list of such function call symbols:
    ...
    ethnl_module_fw_flash_ntf.llvm.7631589765585346066
    __nf_conntrack_alloc.llvm.6438426151906658917
    tcp_can_early_drop.llvm.11937612064648250727
    tcp_print_conntrack.llvm.11937612064648250727
    ...

In my particular build with current bpf-next, the number of '*.llvm.<hash>'
function calls is 1212. As the side effect of cross-file inlining,
some static variables may be promoted with '*.llvm.<hash>' as well.
In my same setup, the number of variables with such suffixes is 9.

Such symbols make kernel live patching difficult since
  - a minor code change will change the hash and then the '*.llvm.<hash>'
    symbol becomes another one with a different hash. Sometimes, maybe
    the suffix is gone.
  - a previous source-level symbol may become a one with suffix after live
    patching code.

In [1], Song Liu suggested to reduce the number of '*.llvm.<hash>' functions
to make live patch easier. In respond of this, I implemented this
in llvm ([2]). The same thin-lto build with [2] only has two symbols with
suffix:
    m_stop.llvm.14460341347352036579
    m_next.llvm.14460341347352036579
This should make live patch much easier.

To support suffix symbol reduction, two lld flags are necessary to enable
this feature in kernel:
    - Flag '--lto-whole-program-visibility' is needed as it ensures that all
      non-assembly files are available in the same thin-lto lld, which is true
      for kernel.
    - Flag '-mllvm -always-rename-promoted-locals=false' is needed to enable
      suffix reduction. Currently in llvm [1], only process mode is supported.
      There is another distributed mode (across different processes or even
      different machines) which is not supported yet ([2]). The kernel uses
      process mode so it should work.

The assembly files may have some global functions/data which may potentially
conflict with thin-lto global symbols after the above two flags. But such assembly
global symbols are limited and tend to be uniquely named for its context.
Hence the conflict with globals in non-assembly codes is rare. If indeed the
conflict happens, we can rename either of them to avoid conflicts.

Nathan Chancellor suggested the following under thin-lto:
  KBUILD_LDFLAGS += $(call ld-option,--lto-whole-program-visibility -mllvm -always-rename-promoted-locals=false)
The '-mllvm -always-rename-promoted-locals=false' flag is only available for llvm23.
So for llvm22 or earlier, the above KBUILD_LDFLAGS will ignore those two flags.
For llvm23 and later, two flags will be added to KBUILD_LDFLAGS.

592c61f3bf rust: kbuild: allow unused_features
Starting with the upcoming Rust 1.96.0 (to be released 2026-05-28),
`rustc` introduces the new lint `unused_features` [1], which warns [2]:

    warning: feature `used_with_arg` is declared but not used
     --> <crate attribute>:1:93
      |
    1 | #![feature(asm_const,asm_goto,arbitrary_self_types,lint_reasons,offset_of_nested,raw_ref_op,used_with_arg)]
      |                                                                                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
      |
      = note: `#[warn(unused_features)]` (part of `#[warn(unused)]`) on by default

The original goal of using `-Zcrate-attr` automatically was that there
is a consistent set of features enabled and managed globally for all
Rust kernel code (modulo exceptions like the `rust/` crated).

While we could require crates to enable features manually (even if we
still keep the `-Zallow-features=` list, i.e. removing the `-Zcrate-attr`
list), it is not really worth making all developers worry about it just
for a new lint.

The features are expected to eventually become stable anyway (most already
did), and thus having to remove features in every file that may use them
is not worth it either.

Thus just allow the new lint globally.

The lint actually existed for a long time, which is why `rustc` does
not complain about an unknown lint in the stable versions we support,
but it was "disabled" years ago [3], and now it was made to work again.

For extra context, the new implementation of the lint has already been
improved to avoid linting about features that became stable thanks to
Benno's report and the ensuing discussion [4] [5], but while that helps,
it is still the case that we may have features enabled that are not used
for one reason or another in a particular crate.

kbuild: Use '-fms-anonymous-structs' if it is available
Clang recently added '-fms-anonymous-structs' [1] to specifically enable
the Microsoft tagged anonymous structure / union extension, for which
the kernel added '-fms-extensions' in commit c4781dc3d1 ("Kbuild:
enable -fms-extensions"). Switch to this more narrow option if it is
available, which would have helped avoid the issue addressed by
commit a6773e6932 ("jfs: Rename _inline to avoid conflict with clang's
'-fms-extensions'"). GCC has talked about adding a similar flag [2] as
well but potentially naming it differently.

Move the selection of the flag to Kconfig to make it easier to use
cc-option (as CC_FLAGS_DIALECT may be used in arch Makefiles, which may
be too early for cc-option in Kbuild) and customize based on compiler
flag names.

kbuild: Consolidate C dialect options
Introduce CC_FLAGS_DIALECT to make it easier to update the various
places in the tree that rely on the GNU C standard and Microsoft
extensions flags atomically. All remaining uses of '-std=gnu11' and
'-fms-extensions' are in the tools directory (which has its own build
system) and other standalone Makefiles. This will allow the kernel to
use a narrower option to enable the Microsoft anonymous tagged structure
extension in a simpler manner. Place the CC_FLAGS_DIALECT block after
the configuration include (so that a future change can move the
selection of the flag to Kconfig) but before the
arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile include (so that CC_FLAGS_DIALECT is available
for use in those Makefiles).

dda135077e rust: build: remap path to avoid absolute path
When building with an out directory (O=), absolute paths can end up in the
file name in `#[track_caller]` or the panic message. This is not desirable
as this leaks the exact path being used to build the kernel and means that
the same location can appear in two forms (relative or absolute).

This is reported by Asahi [1] and is being workaround in [2] previously to
force everything to be absolute path. Using absolute path for everything
solves the inconsistency, however it does not address the reproducibility
issue. So, fix this by remap all absolute paths to srctree to relative path
instead.

This is previously attempted in commit dbdffaf50f ("kbuild, rust: use
-fremap-path-prefix to make paths relative") but that was reverted as
remapping debug info causes some tool (e.g. objdump) to be unable to find
sources. Therefore, use `--remap-path-scope` to only remap macros but leave
debuginfo untouched. `--remap-path-scope` is only stable in Rust 1.95, so
use `rustc-option` to detect its presence. This feature has been available
as  `-Zremap-path-scope` for all versions that we support; however due to
bugs in the Rust compiler, it does not work reliably until 1.94. I opted to
not enable it for 1.94 as it's just a single version that we missed.

This change can be validated by building a kernel with O=, strip debug info
on vmlinux, and then check if the absolute path exists in `strings
vmlinux`, e.g. `strings vmlinux |grep \/home`.

kbuild: Leave objtool binary around with 'make clean'
The difference between 'make clean' and 'make mrproper' is documented in
'make help' as:

  clean     - Remove most generated files but keep the config and
              enough build support to build external modules
  mrproper  - Remove all generated files + config + various backup files

After commit 68b4fe32d7 ("kbuild: Add objtool to top-level clean
target"), running 'make clean' then attempting to build an external
module with the resulting build directory fails with

  $ make ARCH=x86_64 O=build clean

  $ make -C build M=... MO=...
  ...
  /bin/sh: line 1: .../build/tools/objtool/objtool: No such file or directory

as 'make clean' removes the objtool binary.

Split the objtool clean target into mrproper and clean like Kbuild does
and remove all generated artifacts with 'make clean' except for the
objtool binary, which is removed with 'make mrproper'. To avoid a small
race when running the objtool clean target through both objtool_mrproper
and objtool_clean when running 'make mrproper', modify objtool's clean
up find command to avoid using find's '-delete' command by piping the
files into 'xargs rm -f' like the rest of Kbuild does.

f1c538ca81 Updates for the VDSO subsystem:
- Provide the missing 64-bit variant of clock_getres()
 
     This allows the extension of CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and
     finally the removal of 32-bit time types from the kernel and UAPI.
 
   - Remove the useless and broken getcpu_cache from the VDSO
 
     The intention was to provide a trivial way to retrieve the CPU number from
     the VDSO, but as the VDSO data is per process there is no way to make it
     work.
 
   - Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy()
 
     The packed struct violates strict aliasing rules which requires to pass
     -fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler. As this are scalar values
     __builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores
 
   - Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof()
 
     The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when __beNN
     types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a special
     'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate the Generic
     in __unqual_scalar_typeof().
 
     Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the problem,
     but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity check to sparse
     builds, which validates that sparse is available and capable of handling it.
 
   - Force inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common()
 
     Compilers sometimes un-inline agressively, which results in function call
     overhead and problems with automatic stack variable initialization.
 
     Interestingly enough the force inlining results in smaller code than the
     un-inlined variant produced by GCC when optimizing for size.

0923fd0419 Locking updates for v6.20:
Lock debugging:
 
  - Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context
    checking, using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context
    analysis features. (Marco Elver)
 
    We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
    removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context
    tracking Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which
    are false positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of
    false positive context tracking Sparse warnings grows to
    over 5,200... On the plus side of the balance actual locking
    bugs found by Sparse context analysis is also rather ... sparse:
    I found only 3 such commits in the last 3 years. So the
    rate of false positives and the maintenance overhead is
    rather high and there appears to be no active policy in
    place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move the
    annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.
 
    Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive
    in trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has
    a different model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by
    subsystem, which results in zero warnings on all relevant
    kernel builds (as far as our testing managed to cover it).
    Which allowed us to enable it by default, similar to other
    compiler warnings, with the expectation that there are no
    warnings going forward. This enforces a zero-warnings baseline
    on clang-22+ builds. (Which are still limited in distribution,
    admittedly.)
 
    Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
    zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more
    subsystems and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking
    can be enabled for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y
    (default disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.
 
    ( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
      if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
      relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )
 
 Rust integration updates: (Alice Ryhl, Fujita Tomonori, Boqun Feng)
 
   - Add support for Atomic<i8/i16/bool> and replace most Rust native
     AtomicBool usages with Atomic<bool>

   - Add missing Send and Sync trait implementation for SetOnce
 
   - Make ARef Unpin as it is supposed to be
 
   - Add __rust_helper to a few Rust helpers as a preparation for
     helper LTO
 
   - Inline various lock related functions to avoid additional
     function calls.

a44bfed9df kbuild: rust: clean libpin_init_internal in mrproper
When I enabled Rust compilation, I wanted to clean up its output, so I
used make mrproper. However, I was still able to find that
libpin_init_internal.so in the rust directory was not deleted, while
all other corresponding outputs were cleared.

Thus add it to the `MRPROPER_FILES` list.

kbuild: Reject unexpected values for LLVM=
The LLVM argument is documented to accept one of three forms:
* a literal '1' to use the default 'clang',
* a toolchain prefix path, ending in a trailing '/',
* a version suffix.

All other values are silently treated as '1'. If for example
the user accidentally forgets the trailing '/' of a toolchain prefix,
kbuild will unexpectedly and silently fall back to the system toolchain.

Instead report an error if the user specified an invalid value for LLVM.

fd69b2f7d5 compiler: Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof()
The recent changes to get_unaligned() resulted in a new sparse warning:

   net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: sparse: incorrect type in argument 1 (different modifiers) @@     expected void * @@     got restricted __be64 const * @@
   net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse:     expected void *
   net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse:     got restricted __be64 const *

The updated get_unaligned_t() uses __unqual_scalar_typeof() to get an
unqualified type. This works correctly for the compilers, but fails for
sparse when the data type is __be64 (or any other __beNN variant).

On sparse runs (C=[12]) __beNN types are annotated with
__attribute__((bitwise)).

That annotation allows sparse to detect incompatible operations on __beNN
variables, but it also prevents sparse from evaluating the _Generic() in
__unqual_scalar_typeof() and map __beNN to a unqualified scalar type, so it
ends up with the default, i.e. the original qualified type of a 'const
__beNN' pointer. That then ends up as the first pointer argument to
builtin_memcpy(), which obviously causes the above sparse warnings.

The sparse git tree supports typeof_unqual() now, which allows to use it
instead of the _Generic() based __unqual_scalar_typeof(). With that sparse
correctly evaluates the unqualified type and keeps the __beNN logic intact.

The downside is that this requires a top of tree sparse build and an old
sparse version will emit a metric ton of incomprehensible error messages
before it dies with a segfault.

Therefore implement a sanity check which validates that the checker is
available and capable of handling typeof_unqual(). Emit a warning if not so
the user can take informed action.

[ tglx: Move the evaluation of USE_TYPEOF_UNQUAL to compiler_types.h so it is
  	set before use and implement the sanity checker ]

150a04d817 compiler_types.h: Attributes: Add __counted_by_ptr macro
Introduce __counted_by_ptr(), which works like __counted_by(), but for
pointer struct members.

struct foo {
	int a, b, c;
	char *buffer __counted_by_ptr(bytes);
	short nr_bars;
	struct bar *bars __counted_by_ptr(nr_bars);
	size_t bytes;
};

Because "counted_by" can only be applied to pointer members in very
recent compiler versions, its application ends up needing to be distinct
from flexibe array "counted_by" annotations, hence a separate macro.

This is a reworking of Kees' previous patch [1].

3269701cb2 compiler-context-analysis: Add infrastructure for Context Analysis with Clang
Context Analysis is a language extension, which enables statically
checking that required contexts are active (or inactive), by acquiring
and releasing user-definable "context locks". An obvious application is
lock-safety checking for the kernel's various synchronization primitives
(each of which represents a "context lock"), and checking that locking
rules are not violated.

Clang originally called the feature "Thread Safety Analysis" [1]. This
was later changed and the feature became more flexible, gaining the
ability to define custom "capabilities". Its foundations can be found in
"Capability Systems" [2], used to specify the permissibility of
operations to depend on some "capability" being held (or not held).

Because the feature is not just able to express "capabilities" related
to synchronization primitives, and "capability" is already overloaded in
the kernel, the naming chosen for the kernel departs from Clang's
"Thread Safety" and "capability" nomenclature; we refer to the feature
as "Context Analysis" to avoid confusion. The internal implementation
still makes references to Clang's terminology in a few places, such as
`-Wthread-safety` being the warning option that also still appears in
diagnostic messages.

 [1] https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ThreadSafetyAnalysis.html
 [2] https://www.cs.cornell.edu/talc/papers/capabilities.pdf

See more details in the kernel-doc documentation added in this and
subsequent changes.

Clang version 22+ is required.

kbuild: Add top-level target for building gen_init_cpio
Add a top-level target for building gen_init_cpio to prevent re-entering
kbuild for 'modules-cpio-pkg'.

The recently introduced target 'modules-cpio-pkg' depends on
gen_init_cpio but there is no simple way to add this dependency as a
prerequisite that can be built in parallel to other recipes.

Introducing the top-level target, enables fixing this and also prepares
a possible move of gen_init_cpio from usr/ to scripts/.

90e5b38a26 kbuild: Sync kconfig when PAHOLE_VERSION changes
This patch implements kconfig re-sync when the pahole version changes
between builds, similar to how it happens for compiler version change
via CC_VERSION_TEXT.

Define PAHOLE_VERSION in the top-level Makefile and export it for
config builds. Set CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION default to the exported
variable.

Kconfig records the PAHOLE_VERSION value in
include/config/auto.conf.cmd [1].

The Makefile includes auto.conf.cmd, so if PAHOLE_VERSION changes
between builds, make detects a dependency change and triggers
syncconfig to update the kconfig [2].

For external module builds, add a warning message in the prepare
target, similar to the existing compiler version mismatch warning.

Note that if pahole is not installed or available, PAHOLE_VERSION is
set to 0 by pahole-version.sh, so the (un)installation of pahole is
treated as a version change.

See previous discussions for context [3].

400fbf4b58 dt-bindings: kbuild: Support single binding targets
Running the full 'make dt_binding_check' is slow. A shortcut is to set
DT_SCHEMA_FILES env variable to a substring of DT schema files to test.
It both limits which examples are validated and which schemas are used
to validate the examples. This is a problem because errors from other
schemas are missed. What makes validation slow is checking all examples,
so we really just need a way to test a single example.

Add a %.yaml target to validate the schema and validate the example:

make example-schema.yaml

The behavior for 'make dt_binding_check DT_SCHEMA_FILES=example-schema'
is unchanged. Really it should mirror dtbs_check and validate all the
examples with a subset of schemas, but there are lots of users of
expecting the existing behavior.

784faa8eca Rust changes for v6.19
Toolchain and infrastructure:
 
  - Add support for 'syn'.
 
      Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a
      syntax tree of Rust source code.
 
      Currently this library is geared toward use in Rust procedural
      macros, but contains some APIs that may be useful more generally.
 
    'syn' allows us to greatly simplify writing complex macros such as
    'pin-init' (Benno has already prepared the 'syn'-based version). We
    will use it in the 'macros' crate too.
 
    'syn' is the most downloaded Rust crate (according to crates.io), and
    it is also used by the Rust compiler itself. While the amount of code
    is substantial, there should not be many updates needed for these
    crates, and even if there are, they should not be too big, e.g. +7k
    -3k lines across the 3 crates in the last year.
 
    'syn' requires two smaller dependencies: 'quote' and 'proc-macro2'.
    I only modified their code to remove a third dependency
    ('unicode-ident') and to add the SPDX identifiers. The code can be
    easily verified to exactly match upstream with the provided scripts.
 
    They are all licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", like the other
    vendored 'alloc' crate we had for a while.
 
    Please see the merge commit with the cover letter for more context.
 
  - Allow 'unreachable_pub' and 'clippy::disallowed_names' for doctests.
 
    Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to do things like show public items
    and use names such as 'foo'.
 
    Nevertheless, we still try to keep examples as close to real code as
    possible (this is part of why running Clippy on doctests is important
    for us, e.g. for safety comments, which userspace Rust does not
    support yet but we are stricter).
 
 'kernel' crate:
 
  - Replace our custom 'CStr' type with 'core::ffi::CStr'.
 
    Using the standard library type reduces our custom code footprint,
    and we retain needed custom functionality through an extension trait
    and a new 'fmt!' macro which replaces the previous 'core' import.
 
    This started in 6.17 and continued in 6.18, and we finally land the
    replacement now. This required quite some stamina from Tamir, who
    split the changes in steps to prepare for the flag day change here.
 
  - Replace 'kernel::c_str!' with C string literals.
 
    C string literals were added in Rust 1.77, which produce '&CStr's
    (the 'core' one), so now we can write:
 
        c"hi"
 
    instead of:
 
        c_str!("hi")
 
  - Add 'num' module for numerical features.
 
    It includes the 'Integer' trait, implemented for all primitive
    integer types.
 
    It also includes the 'Bounded' integer wrapping type: an integer
    value that requires only the 'N' less significant bits of the wrapped
    type to be encoded:
 
        // An unsigned 8-bit integer, of which only the 4 LSBs are used.
        let v = Bounded::<u8, 4>:🆕:<15>();
        assert_eq!(v.get(), 15);
 
    'Bounded' is useful to e.g. enforce guarantees when working with
    bitfields that have an arbitrary number of bits.
 
    Values can be constructed from simple non-constant expressions or,
    for more complex ones, validated at runtime.
 
    'Bounded' also comes with comparison and arithmetic operations (with
    both their backing type and other 'Bounded's with a compatible
    backing type), casts to change the backing type, extending/shrinking
    and infallible/fallible conversions from/to primitives as applicable.
 
  - 'rbtree' module: add immutable cursor ('Cursor').
 
    It enables to use just an immutable tree reference where appropriate.
    The existing fully-featured mutable cursor is renamed to 'CursorMut'.
 
 kallsyms:
 
  - Fix wrong "big" kernel symbol type read from procfs.
 
 'pin-init' crate:
 
  - A couple minor fixes (Benno asked me to pick these patches up for
    him this cycle).
 
 Documentation:
 
  - Quick Start guide: add Debian 13 (Trixie).
 
    Debian Stable is now able to build Linux, since Debian 13 (released
    2025-08-09) packages Rust 1.85.0, which is recent enough.
 
    We are planning to propose that the minimum supported Rust version in
    Linux follows Debian Stable releases, with Debian 13 being the first
    one we upgrade to, i.e. Rust 1.85.
 
 MAINTAINERS:
 
  - Add entry for the new 'num' module.
 
  - Remove Alex as Rust maintainer: he hasn't had the time to contribute
    for a few years now, so it is a no-op change in practice.
 
 And a few other cleanups and improvements.

     'syn' allows us to greatly simplify writing complex macros such as
     'pin-init' (Benno has already prepared the 'syn'-based version). We
     will use it in the 'macros' crate too.

     'syn' is the most downloaded Rust crate (according to crates.io),
     and it is also used by the Rust compiler itself. While the amount
     of code is substantial, there should not be many updates needed for
     these crates, and even if there are, they should not be too big,
     e.g. +7k -3k lines across the 3 crates in the last year.

     'syn' requires two smaller dependencies: 'quote' and 'proc-macro2'.
     I only modified their code to remove a third dependency
     ('unicode-ident') and to add the SPDX identifiers. The code can be
     easily verified to exactly match upstream with the provided
     scripts.

     They are all licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", like the other
     vendored 'alloc' crate we had for a while.

     Please see the merge commit with the cover letter for more context.

   - Allow 'unreachable_pub' and 'clippy::disallowed_names' for
     doctests.

     Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to do things like show public
     items and use names such as 'foo'.

     Nevertheless, we still try to keep examples as close to real code
     as possible (this is part of why running Clippy on doctests is
     important for us, e.g. for safety comments, which userspace Rust
     does not support yet but we are stricter).

  'kernel' crate:

   - Replace our custom 'CStr' type with 'core::ffi::CStr'.

     Using the standard library type reduces our custom code footprint,
     and we retain needed custom functionality through an extension
     trait and a new 'fmt!' macro which replaces the previous 'core'
     import.

     This started in 6.17 and continued in 6.18, and we finally land the
     replacement now. This required quite some stamina from Tamir, who
     split the changes in steps to prepare for the flag day change here.

   - Replace 'kernel::c_str!' with C string literals.

     C string literals were added in Rust 1.77, which produce '&CStr's
     (the 'core' one), so now we can write:

         c"hi"

     instead of:

         c_str!("hi")

   - Add 'num' module for numerical features.

     It includes the 'Integer' trait, implemented for all primitive
     integer types.

     It also includes the 'Bounded' integer wrapping type: an integer
     value that requires only the 'N' least significant bits of the
     wrapped type to be encoded:

         // An unsigned 8-bit integer, of which only the 4 LSBs are used.
         let v = Bounded::<u8, 4>:🆕:<15>();
         assert_eq!(v.get(), 15);

     'Bounded' is useful to e.g. enforce guarantees when working with
     bitfields that have an arbitrary number of bits.

     Values can also be constructed from simple non-constant expressions
     or, for more complex ones, validated at runtime.

     'Bounded' also comes with comparison and arithmetic operations
     (with both their backing type and other 'Bounded's with a
     compatible backing type), casts to change the backing type,
     extending/shrinking and infallible/fallible conversions from/to
     primitives as applicable.

   - 'rbtree' module: add immutable cursor ('Cursor').

     It enables to use just an immutable tree reference where
     appropriate. The existing fully-featured mutable cursor is renamed
     to 'CursorMut'.

  kallsyms:

   - Fix wrong "big" kernel symbol type read from procfs.

  'pin-init' crate:

   - A couple minor fixes (Benno asked me to pick these patches up for
     him this cycle).

  Documentation:

   - Quick Start guide: add Debian 13 (Trixie).

     Debian Stable is now able to build Linux, since Debian 13 (released
     2025-08-09) packages Rust 1.85.0, which is recent enough.

     We are planning to propose that the minimum supported Rust version
     in Linux follows Debian Stable releases, with Debian 13 being the
     first one we upgrade to, i.e. Rust 1.85.

  MAINTAINERS:

   - Add entry for the new 'num' module.

   - Remove Alex as Rust maintainer: he hasn't had the time to
     contribute for a few years now, so it is a no-op change in
     practice.

  And a few other cleanups and improvements"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Features:

   - Cheaper MAY_EXEC handling for path lookup. This elides MAY_WRITE
     permission checks during path lookup and adds the
     IOP_FASTPERM_MAY_EXEC flag so filesystems like btrfs can avoid
     expensive permission work.

   - Hide dentry_cache behind runtime const machinery.

   - Add German Maglione as virtiofs co-maintainer.

  Cleanups:

   - Tidy up and inline step_into() and walk_component() for improved
     code generation.

   - Re-enable IOCB_NOWAIT writes to files. This refactors file
     timestamp update logic, fixing a layering bypass in btrfs when
     updating timestamps on device files and improving FMODE_NOCMTIME
     handling in VFS now that nfsd started using it.

   - Path lookup optimizations extracting slowpaths into dedicated
     routines and adding branch prediction hints for mntput_no_expire(),
     fd_install(), lookup_slow(), and various other hot paths.

   - Enable clang's -fms-extensions flag, requiring a JFS rename to
     avoid conflicts.

   - Remove spurious exports in fs/file_attr.c.

   - Stop duplicating union pipe_index declaration. This depends on the
     shared kbuild branch that brings in -fms-extensions support which
     is merged into this branch.

   - Use MD5 library instead of crypto_shash in ecryptfs.

   - Use largest_zero_folio() in iomap_dio_zero().

   - Replace simple_strtol/strtoul with kstrtoint/kstrtouint in init and
     initrd code.

   - Various typo fixes.

  Fixes:

   - Fix emergency sync for btrfs. Btrfs requires an explicit sync_fs()
     call with wait == 1 to commit super blocks. The emergency sync path
     never passed this, leaving btrfs data uncommitted during emergency
     sync.

   - Use local kmap in watch_queue's post_one_notification().

   - Add hint prints in sb_set_blocksize() for LBS dependency on THP"

7454048db2 kbuild: Enable GCC diagnostic context for value-tracking warnings
Enable GCC 16's coming "-fdiagnostics-show-context=N" option[1] to
provide enhanced diagnostic information for value-tracking warnings,
which displays the control flow chain leading to the diagnostic. This
covers our existing use of -Wrestrict and -Wstringop-overread, and
gets us closer to enabling -Warray-bounds, -Wstringop-overflow, and
-Wstringop-truncation, so we can track the rationale for the warning,
letting us more quickly identify actual issues vs what have looked in
the past like false positives. Fixes based on this work have already
been landing, e.g.:

  4a6f18f286 ("net/mlx4_core: Avoid impossible mlx4_db_alloc() order value")
  8a39f1c870 ("ovl: Check for NULL d_inode() in ovl_dentry_upper()")
  e5f7e4e0a4 ("drm/amdgpu/atom: Work around vbios NULL offset false positive")

The context depth ("=N") provides the immediate decision path that led
to the problematic code location, showing conditional checks and branch
decisions that caused the warning. This will help us understand why
GCC's value-tracking analysis triggered the warning and makes it easier
to determine whether warnings are legitimate issues or false positives.

For example, an array bounds warning will now show the conditional
statements (like "if (i >= 4)") that established the out-of-bounds access
range, directly connecting the control flow to the warning location.
This is particularly valuable when GCC's interprocedural analysis can
generate warnings that are difficult to understand without seeing the
inferred control flow.

While my testing has shown that "=1" reports enough for finding
the origin of most bounds issues, I have used "=2" here just to be
conservative. Build time measurements with this option off, =1, and =2
are all with noise of each other, so there seems to be no harm in "turning
it up". If we need to, we can make this value configurable in the future.

`proc_macro_byte_character` and `proc_macro_c_str_literals` were
stabilized in Rust 1.79.0 [1] and were implemented earlier than our
minimum Rust version (1.78) [2][3]. Thus just enable them instead of using
the `cfg` that `proc-macro2` uses to emulate them in older compilers.

In addition, skip formatting for this vendored crate and take the chance
to add a comment mentioning this.

kbuild: allow architectures to override CC_CAN_LINK
The generic test for CC_CAN_LINK assumes that all architectures use -m32
and -m64 to switch between 32-bit and 64-bit compilation. This is overly
simplistic. Architectures may use other flags (-mabi, -m31, etc.) or may
also require byte order handling (-mlittle-endian, -EL). Expressing all
of the different possibilities will be very complicated and brittle.
Instead allow architectures to supply their own logic which will be
easy to understand and evolve.

Both the boolean ARCH_HAS_CC_CAN_LINK and the string ARCH_USERFLAGS need
to be implemented as kconfig does not allow the reuse of string options.

Kbuild: enable -fms-extensions
Once in a while, it turns out that enabling -fms-extensions could
allow some slightly prettier code. But every time it has come up, the
code that had to be used instead has been deemed "not too awful" and
not worth introducing another compiler flag for.

That's probably true for each individual case, but then it's somewhat
of a chicken/egg situation.

If we just "bite the bullet" as Linus says and enable it once and for
all, it is available whenever a use case turns up, and no individual
case has to justify it.

A lore.kernel.org search provides these examples:

- https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/200706301813.58435.agruen@suse.de/
- https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180419152817.GD25406@bombadil.infradead.org/
- https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/170622208395.21664.2510213291504081000@noble.neil.brown.name/

- https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHk-=wjeZwww6Zswn6F_iZTpUihTSNKYppLqj36iQDDhfntuEw@mail.gmail.com/

Undoubtedly, there are more places in the code where this could also
be used but where -fms-extensions just didn't come up in any
discussion.
