2025-09-28checkpatch: suppress strscpy warnings for userspace toolsSuchit Karunakaran
The checkpatch.pl script currently warns against the use of strcpy, strlcpy, and strncpy, recommending strscpy as a safer alternative. However, these warnings are also triggered for code under tools/ and scripts/, which are userspace utilities where strscpy is not available. This patch suppresses these warnings for files in tools/ and scripts/.

Add a new Coccinelle script to identify places where PTR_ERR() is used in print functions and suggest using the %pe format specifier instead. For printing error pointers (i.e., a pointer for which IS_ERR() is true) %pe will print a symbolic error name (e.g,. -EINVAL), opposed to the raw errno (e.g,. -22) produced by PTR_ERR(). It also makes the code cleaner by saving a redundant call to PTR_ERR(). The script supports context, report, and org modes.

2025-09-24kconfig: Add transitional symbol attribute for migration supportKees Cook
During kernel option migrations (e.g. CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI), existing .config files need to maintain backward compatibility while preventing deprecated options from appearing in newly generated configurations. This is challenging with existing Kconfig mechanisms because: 1. Simply removing old options breaks existing .config files. 2. Manually listing an option as "deprecated" leaves it needlessly visible and still writes them to new .config files. 3. Using any method to remove visibility (.e.g no 'prompt', 'if n', etc) prevents the option from being processed at all. Add a "transitional" attribute that creates symbols which are: - Processed during configuration (can influence other symbols' defaults) - Hidden from user menus (no prompts appear) - Omitted from newly written .config files (gets migrated) - Restricted to only having help sections (no defaults, selects, etc) making it truly just a "prior value pass-through" option. The transitional syntax requires a type argument and prevents type redefinition: config NEW_OPTION bool "New option" default OLD_OPTION config OLD_OPTION bool transitional help Transitional config for OLD_OPTION migration. This allows seamless migration: olddefconfig processes existing CONFIG_OLD_OPTION=y settings to enable CONFIG_NEW_OPTION=y, while CONFIG_OLD_OPTION is omitted from newly generated .config files. Added positive and negative testing via "testconfig" make target.

2025-09-24Merge patch series "Add generated modalias to modules.builtin.modinfo"Nathan Chancellor
Alexey Gladkov says: The modules.builtin.modinfo file is used by userspace (kmod to be specific) to get information about builtin modules. Among other information about the module, information about module aliases is stored. This is very important to determine that a particular modalias will be handled by a module that is inside the kernel. There are several mechanisms for creating modalias for modules: The first is to explicitly specify the MODULE_ALIAS of the macro. In this case, the aliases go into the '.modinfo' section of the module if it is compiled separately or into vmlinux.o if it is builtin into the kernel. The second is the use of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE followed by the use of the modpost utility. In this case, vmlinux.o no longer has this information and does not get it into modules.builtin.modinfo. For example: $ modinfo pci:v00008086d0000A36Dsv00001043sd00008694bc0Csc03i30 modinfo: ERROR: Module pci:v00008086d0000A36Dsv00001043sd00008694bc0Csc03i30 not found. $ modinfo xhci_pci name: xhci_pci filename: (builtin) license: GPL file: drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci description: xHCI PCI Host Controller Driver The builtin module is missing alias "pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc0Csc03i30*" which will be generated by modpost if the module is built separately. To fix this it is necessary to add the generated by modpost modalias to modules.builtin.modinfo. Fortunately modpost already generates .vmlinux.export.c for exported symbols. It is possible to add `.modinfo` for builtin modules and modify the build system so that `.modinfo` section is extracted from the intermediate vmlinux after modpost is executed.

2025-09-24modpost: Create modalias for builtin modulesAlexey Gladkov
For some modules, modalias is generated using the modpost utility and the section is added to the module file. When a module is added inside vmlinux, modpost does not generate modalias for such modules and the information is lost. As a result kmod (which uses modules.builtin.modinfo in userspace) cannot determine that modalias is handled by a builtin kernel module. $ cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/modalias pci:v00008086d0000A36Dsv00001043sd00008694bc0Csc03i30 $ modinfo xhci_pci name: xhci_pci filename: (builtin) license: GPL file: drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci description: xHCI PCI Host Controller Driver Missing modalias "pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc0Csc03i30*" which will be generated by modpost if the module is built separately. To fix this it is necessary to generate the same modalias for vmlinux as for the individual modules. Fortunately '.vmlinux.export.o' is already generated from which '.modinfo' can be extracted in the same way as for vmlinux.o.

A few patches slightly improving the output generated by decode_stacktrace.sh. This patch (of 3): Lines having a symbol to decode might not always have info after this symbol. It means ${info_str} might not be set, but it will always be printed after a space, causing trailing whitespaces. That's a detail, but when the output is opened with an editor marking these trailing whitespaces, that's a bit disturbing. It is easy to remove them by printing this variable with a space only if it is set. While at it, do the same with ${module} and print everything in one line.

2025-09-18scripts/jobserver-exec: move the code to a classMauro Carvalho Chehab
Convert the code inside jobserver-exec to a class and properly document it. Using a class allows reusing the jobserver logic on other scripts. While the main code remains unchanged, being compatible with Python 2.6 and 3.0+, its coding style now follows a more modern standard, having tabs replaced by a 4-spaces indent, passing autopep8, black and pylint. The code allows using a pythonic way to enter/exit a python code, e.g. it now supports: with JobserverExec() as jobserver: jobserver.run(sys.argv[1:]) With the new code, the __exit__() function should ensure that the jobserver slot will be closed at the end, even if something bad happens somewhere.

2025-09-18docs: kdoc: a few more dump_typedef() tweaksJonathan Corbet
Merge "typedef" into the typedef_type pattern rather than repeating it later, and add some comments. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: remove redundant comment stripping in dump_typedef()Jonathan Corbet
By the time we get here, comments have long since been stripped out; there is no need to do it again. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: remove some dead code in dump_typedef()Jonathan Corbet
The regex in this block of code makes no sense, and a quick test shows that it never matches anything; simply delete the code. No output changes. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: final dump_function() cleanupsJonathan Corbet
Add some more comments to dump_function(), add some comments, and trim out an unneeded duplicate output_declaration() call. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: consolidate some of the macro-processing logicJonathan Corbet
The logic to handle macros is split in dump_function(); bring it all together into a single place and add a comment saying what's going on. Remove the unneeded is_define_proto variable, and tighten up the code a bit. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: Simplify the dump_function() prototype regexesJonathan Corbet
The regexes for the parsing of function prototypes were more complicated than they needed to be and difficult to understand -- at least, I spent a fair amount of time bashing my head against them. Simplify them, and add some documentation comments as well. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: remove a useless empty capture groupJonathan Corbet
The is_define_proto case in dump_function() uses a regex with an empty capture group - () - that has no use; just take it out. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: remove a couple of spurious regex charactersJonathan Corbet
The "name" regex in dump_function() includes both the tilde and colon characters, but neither has any place in function prototypes. Remove the characters, after which the regex simplifies to "\w+" No output changes. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18doc: kdoc: unify transform handlingJonathan Corbet
Both functions and structs are passed through a set of regex-based transforms, but the two were structured differently, despite being the same thing. Create a utility function to apply transformations and use it in both cases. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: move the function transform patterns out of dump_function()Jonathan Corbet
Move these definitions to file level, where they are executed once, and don't clutter the function itself. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: remove a single-use variableJonathan Corbet
struct_attribute is only used once, so just put its value there directly and drop the name. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: tighten up the push_parameter() no-type caseJonathan Corbet
The handling of untyped parameters involved a number of redundant tests; restructure the code to remove them and be more compact. No output changes. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2025-09-18docs: kdoc: trim __cacheline_group_* with the other annotationsJonathan Corbet
The special case for __cacheline_group_begin/end() can be handled by just adding another pattern to the struct_prefixes, eliminating the need for a special case in push_parameter(). One change is that these annotations no longer appear in the rendered output, just like all the other annotations that we clean out. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

In order to support LKMM atomics in Rust, add rust_helper_* for atomic APIs. These helpers ensure the implementation of LKMM atomics in Rust is the same as in C. This could save the maintenance burden of having two similar atomic implementations in asm.
