Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"This was a not-too-busy cycle for documentation; highlights include:
- The beginnings of a set of translations into Spanish, headed up by
Carlos Bilbao
- More Chinese translations
- A change to the Sphinx "alabaster" theme by default for HTML
generation.
Unlike the previous default (Read the Docs), alabaster is shipped
with Sphinx by default, reducing the number of other dependencies
that need to be installed. It also (IMO) produces a cleaner and
more readable result.
- The ability to render the documentation into the texinfo format
(something Sphinx could always do, we just never wired it up until
now)
Plus the usual collection of typo fixes, build-warning fixes, and
minor updates"

Pull ARM SoC DT updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"The devicetree changes contain exactly 1000 non-merge changesets,
including a number of new arm64 SoC variants from Qualcomm and Apple,
as well as the Renesas r9a07g043f/u chip in both arm64 and riscv
variants.
While we have occasionally merged support for non-arm SoCs in the
past, this is now the normal path for riscv devicetree files.
The most notable changes, by SoC platform, are:
- The Apple T6000 (M1 Pro), T6001 (M1 Max) and T6002 (M1 Ultra) chips
now have initial support. This is particularly nice as I am typing
this on a T6002 Mac Studio with only a small number of driver
patches.
- Qualcomm MSM8996 Pro (Snapdragon 821), SM6115 (Snapdragon 662),
SM4250 (Snapdragon 460), SM6375 (Snapdragon 695), SDM670
(Snapdragon 670), MSM8976 (Snapdragon 652) and MSM8956 (Snapdragon
650) are all mobile phone chips that are closely related to others
we already support.
Adding those helps support more phones and we add several models
from Sony (Xperia 10 IV, 5 IV, X, and X compact), OnePlus (One, 3,
3T, and Nord N100), Xiaomi (Poco F1, Mi6), Huawei (Watch) and
Google (Pixel 3a).
There are also new variants of the Herobrine and Trogdor chromebook
motherboards. SA8540P is an automotive SoC used in the Qdrive-3
development platform
- Rockchips gains no new SoC variants, but a lot of new boards: three
mobile gaming systems based on RK3326 Odroid-Go/rg351 family, two
more Anbernic gaming systems based on RK3566 and a number of other
RK356x based single-board computers.
- Renesas RZ/G2UL (r9a07g043) was already supported for arm64, but as
the newly added RZ/Five is based on the same design, this now gets
reorganized in order to share most of the dts description between
the two and add the RZ/Five SMARC EVK board support.
Aside from that, there are the usual changes all over the tree:
- New boards on other platforms contain two ASpeed BMC users, two
Broadcom based Wifi routers, Zyxel NSA310S NAS, the i.MX6 based
Kobo Aura2 ebook reader, two i.MX8 based development boards, two
Uniphier Pro5 development boards, the STM32MP1 testbench board from
DHCOR, the TI K3 based BeagleBone AI-64 board, and the Mediatek
Helio X10 based Sony Xperia M5 phone.
- The Starfive JH7100 source gets reorganized in order to support the
VisionFive V1 board.
- Minor updates and cleanups for Intel SoCFPGA, Marvell PXA168, TI,
ST, NXP, Apple, Broadcom, Juno, Marvell MVEBU, at91, nuvoton,
Tegra, Mediatek, Renesas, Hisilicon, Allwinner, Samsung, ux500,
spear, ... The treewide cleanups now have a lot of fixes for cache
nodes and other binding violoations.
- Somewhat larger sets of reworks for NVIDIA Tegra, Qualcomm and
Renesas platforms, adding a lot more on-chip device support
- A rework of the way that DTB overlays are built"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"The highlights this time are support for dynamically enabling and
disabling Clang's Shadow Call Stack at boot and a long-awaited
optimisation to the way in which we handle the SVE register state on
system call entry to avoid taking unnecessary traps from userspace.
Summary:
ACPI:
- Enable FPDT support for boot-time profiling
- Fix CPU PMU probing to work better with PREEMPT_RT
- Update SMMUv3 MSI DeviceID parsing to latest IORT spec
- APMT support for probing Arm CoreSight PMU devices
CPU features:
- Advertise new SVE instructions (v2.1)
- Advertise range prefetch instruction
- Advertise CSSC ("Common Short Sequence Compression") scalar
instructions, adding things like min, max, abs, popcount
- Enable DIT (Data Independent Timing) when running in the kernel
- More conversion of system register fields over to the generated
header
CPU misfeatures:
- Workaround for Cortex-A715 erratum #2645198
Dynamic SCS:
- Support for dynamic shadow call stacks to allow switching at
runtime between Clang's SCS implementation and the CPU's pointer
authentication feature when it is supported (complete with scary
DWARF parser!)
Tracing and debug:
- Remove static ftrace in favour of, err, dynamic ftrace!
- Seperate 'struct ftrace_regs' from 'struct pt_regs' in core ftrace
and existing arch code
- Introduce and implement FTRACE_WITH_ARGS on arm64 to replace the
old FTRACE_WITH_REGS
- Extend 'crashkernel=' parameter with default value and fallback to
placement above 4G physical if initial (low) allocation fails
SVE:
- Optimisation to avoid disabling SVE unconditionally on syscall
entry and just zeroing the non-shared state on return instead
Exceptions:
- Rework of undefined instruction handling to avoid serialisation on
global lock (this includes emulation of user accesses to the ID
registers)
Perf and PMU:
- Support for TLP filters in Hisilicon's PCIe PMU device
- Support for the DDR PMU present in Amlogic Meson G12 SoCs
- Support for the terribly-named "CoreSight PMU" architecture from
Arm (and Nvidia's implementation of said architecture)
Misc:
- Tighten up our boot protocol for systems with memory above 52 bits
physical
- Const-ify static keys to satisty jump label asm constraints
- Trivial FFA driver cleanups in preparation for v1.1 support
- Export the kernel_neon_* APIs as GPL symbols
- Harden our instruction generation routines against instrumentation
- A bunch of robustness improvements to our arch-specific selftests
- Minor cleanups and fixes all over (kbuild, kprobes, kfence, PMU, ...)"

* for-next/kbuild:
arm64: remove special treatment for the link order of head.o
|
|
The `build_error` crate provides a function `build_error` which
will panic at compile-time if executed in const context and,
by default, will cause a build error if not executed at compile
time and the optimizer does not optimise away the call.
The `CONFIG_RUST_BUILD_ASSERT_ALLOW` kernel option allows to
relax the default build failure and convert it to a runtime
check. If the runtime check fails, `panic!` will be called.
Its functionality will be exposed to users as a couple macros in
the `kernel` crate in the following patch, thus some documentation
here refers to them for simplicity.

Since 2df8220cc511 ("kbuild: build init/built-in.a just once"),
generating Debian packages using 'make bindeb-pkg' results in
packages that are stuck to the same .version, leading to unexpected
behaviours (multiple packages with the same version).
That's because the mkdebian script samples the build version
before building the kernel, and forces the use of that version
number for the actual build.
Restore the previous behaviour by calling init/build-version
instead of reading the .version file. This is likely to result
in too many .version bumps, but this is what was happening before
(although the bump was affecting builds made after the current one).

Commit 1d1a0e7c5100 ("scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section
failures") can cause faddr2line to fail on ppc64le on some
distributions, while it works fine on other distributions. The failure
can be attributed to differences in the readelf output.
$ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux find_busiest_group+0x00
no match for find_busiest_group+0x00
On ppc64le, readelf adds the localentry tag before the symbol name on
some distributions, and adds the localentry tag after the symbol name on
other distributions. This problem has been discussed previously:
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20191211160133.GB4580@calabresa/
This problem can be overcome by filtering out the localentry tags in the
readelf output. Similar fixes are already present in the kernel by way
of the following commits:
1fd6cee127e2 ("libbpf: Fix VERSIONED_SYM_COUNT number parsing")
aa915931ac3e ("libbpf: Fix readelf output parsing for Fedora")

Enable asynchronous unwind table generation for both the core kernel as
well as modules, and emit the resulting .eh_frame sections as init code
so we can use the unwind directives for code patching at boot or module
load time.
This will be used by dynamic shadow call stack support, which will rely
on code patching rather than compiler codegen to emit the shadow call
stack push and pop instructions.

Before version 15.0.0 llvm's integrated assembler may silently
generate corrupted code on s390. See e.g. commit e9953b729b78
("s390/boot: workaround llvm IAS bug") for further details.
While there have been workarounds applied for all known existing
locations, there is nothing that prevents that new code with
problematic patterns will be added.
Therefore raise the minimum clang version to 15.0.0. Note that llvm
commit e547b04d5b2c ("[SystemZ] Bugfix for symbolic displacements."),
which is included in 15.0.0, fixes the broken code generation.

In the previous discussion (see the Link tag), Ard pointed out that
arm/arm64/kernel/head.o does not need any special treatment - the only
piece that must appear right at the start of the binary image is the
image header which is emitted into .head.text.
The linker script does the right thing to do. The build system does
not need to manipulate the link order of head.o.

"(1) Main menu". Then, menuconfig crashed with a segmentation fault.
The following code in search_conf()
conf(targets[i]->parent, targets[i]);
results in NULL pointer dereference because targets[i] is the rootmenu,
which does not have a parent.
Commit d05377e184fc tried to fix the issue of top-level items not having
a jump key, but adding the "Main menu" was not the right fix.
The correct fix is to show the searched item itself. This fixes another
weird behavior described in the comment block.
Fixes: d05377e184fc ("kconfig: Create links to main menu items in search")

Commit f73edc8951b2 ("kbuild: unify two modpost invocations") introduced
a typo (moudle.symvers-if-present) which results in the kernel's
Module.symvers to not be included as a prerequisite for
$(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/Module.symvers. Fix the typo to restore the intended
functionality.

DTB files can be built into the kernel by converting them to assembly
files then assembling them into object files. We extend this here
for DTB overlays with the .dtso extensions.
We change the start and end delimiting tag prefix to make it clear that
this data came from overlay files.

Currently DTB Overlays (.dtbo) are build from source files with the same
extension (.dts) as the base DTs (.dtb). This may become confusing and
even lead to wrong results. For example, a composite DTB (created from a
base DTB and a set of overlays) might have the same name as one of the
overlays that create it.
Different files should be generated from differently named sources.
.dtb <-> .dts
.dtbo <-> .dtso
We do not remove the ability to compile DTBO files from .dts files here,
only add a new rule allowing the .dtso file name. The current .dts named
overlays can be renamed with time. After all have been renamed we can
remove the other rule.

For a long time we have rejoiced that our HTML output from Sphinx is far
better than what we got from the old DocBook toolchain. But it still
leaves a lot to be desired; the following is an attempt to improve the
situation somewhat.
Sphinx has a theming mechanism for HTML rendering. Since the kernel's
adoption of Sphinx, we have been using the "Read The Docs" theme — a choice
made in a bit of a hurry to have *something* while figuring out the rest.
RTD is OK, but it is not hugely attractive, requires the installation of an
extra package, and does not observe all of the Sphinx configuration
parameters. Among other things, that makes it hard to put reasonable
contents into the left column in the HTML output.
The Alabaster theme is the default for Sphinx installations, and is bundled
with Sphinx itself. It has (IMO) nicer output and gives us the control
that we need.
So: switch to Alabaster. Additional patches adjust the documentation and
remove the RTD references from scripts/sphinx-pre-install.
The penultimate patch changes the way that kerneldoc declarations are
rendered to (IMO) improve readability. That requires some changes to
kernel-doc to output a new container block and some CSS tweaks to improve
things overall.
It should be noted that I have a long history of inflicting ugly web
designs on the net; this work is a start, but I think we could do far
better yet. It would be great if somebody who actually enjoys working with
CSS and such would help to improve what we have.
|
|
Make a few changes to cause functions documented by kerneldoc to stand out
better in the rendered documentation. Specifically, change kernel-doc to
put the description section into a ".. container::" section, then add a bit
of CSS to indent that section relative to the function prototype (or struct
or enum definition). Tweak a few other CSS parameters while in the
neighborhood to improve the formatting.

When debugging LLVM IR, it can be handy for clang to not discard value
names used for local variables and parameters. Compare the generated IR.
-fdiscard-value-names:
define i32 @core_sys_select(i32 %0, ptr %1, ptr %2, ptr %3, ptr %4) {
%6 = alloca i64
%7 = alloca %struct.poll_wqueues
%8 = alloca [64 x i32]
-fno-discard-value-names:
define i32 @core_sys_select(i32 %n, ptr %inp, ptr %outp, ptr %exp,
ptr %end_time) {
%expire.i = alloca i64
%table.i = alloca %struct.poll_wqueues
%stack_fds = alloca [64 x i32]
The rule for generating human readable LLVM IR (.ll) is only useful as a
debugging feature:
$ make LLVM=1 fs/select.ll
As Fangrui notes:
A LLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=off build of Clang defaults to
-fdiscard-value-names.
A LLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=on build of Clang defaults to
-fno-discard-value-names.
Explicitly enable -fno-discard-value-names so that the IR always contains
value names regardless of whether assertions were enabled or not.
Assertions generally are not enabled in releases of clang packaged by
distributions.

vmlinux.bz2 was added to the rpm packages in 2009 in the
fc370ecfdb37 ("kbuild: add vmlinux to kernel rpm") but seemingly hasn't
been used since.
Originally this should have been split up in a seperate debugging
package because it massively increases the size of the generated rpm's
e.g. kernel rpm built using binrpm-pkg on Fedora 36 default 5.19.8 kernel
config and localmodconfig is ~255MB with vmlinux.bz2 and only ~65MB
without it.
Make the kernel built rpms about 4x smaller by not including the unused
vmlinux.bz2 in them.

linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.
Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat

clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down

- Add ability to call selected destructive functions. Expose
crash_kexec() to allow BPF to trigger a kernel dump. Use
CAP_SYS_BOOT check on the loading process to judge permissions.
- Enable BPF to collect custom hierarchical cgroup stats efficiently
by integrating with the rstat framework.
- Support struct arguments for trampoline based programs. Only

- Introduce QUSGMII PHY mode and 1000BASE-KX interface mode.
- Validate OF (device tree) nodes for DSA shared ports; make
phylink-related properties mandatory on DSA and CPU ports.
Enforcing more uniformity should allow transitioning to phylink.
- Require that flash component name used during update matches one of
the components for which version is reported by info_get().
- Remove "weight" argument from driver-facing NAPI API as much as
possible. It's one of those magic knobs which seemed like a good
idea at the time but is too indirect to use in practice.

Pull SELinux updates from Paul Moore:
"Six SELinux patches, all are simple and easily understood, but a list
of the highlights is below:
- Use 'grep -E' instead of 'egrep' in the SELinux policy install
script.
Fun fact, this seems to be GregKH's *second* dedicated SELinux
patch since we transitioned to git (ignoring merges, the SPDX
stuff, and a trivial fs reference removal when lustre was yanked);
the first was back in 2011 when selinuxfs was placed in
/sys/fs/selinux. Oh, the memories ...
- Convert the SELinux policy boolean values to use signed integer
types throughout the SELinux kernel code.
Prior to this we were using a mix of signed and unsigned integers
which was probably okay in this particular case, but it is
definitely not a good idea in general.
- Remove a reference to the SELinux runtime disable functionality in
/etc/selinux/config as we are in the process of deprecating that.
See [1] for more background on this if you missed the previous
notes on the deprecation.
- Minor cleanups: remove unneeded variables and function parameter
constification"

Pull kernel hardening updates from Kees Cook:
"Most of the collected changes here are fixes across the tree for
various hardening features (details noted below).
The most notable new feature here is the addition of the memcpy()
overflow warning (under CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE), which is the next step
on the path to killing the common class of "trivially detectable"
buffer overflow conditions (i.e. on arrays with sizes known at compile
time) that have resulted in many exploitable vulnerabilities over the
years (e.g. BleedingTooth).
This feature is expected to still have some undiscovered false
positives. It's been in -next for a full development cycle and all the
reported false positives have been fixed in their respective trees.
All the known-bad code patterns we could find with Coccinelle are also
either fixed in their respective trees or in flight.
The commit message in commit 54d9469bc515 ("fortify: Add run-time WARN
for cross-field memcpy()") for the feature has extensive details, but
I'll repeat here that this is a warning _only_, and is not intended to
actually block overflows (yet). The many patches fixing array sizes
and struct members have been landing for several years now, and we're
finally able to turn this on to find any remaining stragglers.
Summary:
Various fixes across several hardening areas:
- loadpin: Fix verity target enforcement (Matthias Kaehlcke).
- zero-call-used-regs: Add missing clobbers in paravirt (Bill
Wendling).
- CFI: clean up sparc function pointer type mismatches (Bart Van
Assche).
- Clang: Adjust compiler flag detection for various Clang changes
(Sami Tolvanen, Kees Cook).
- fortify: Fix warnings in arch-specific code in sh, ARM, and xen.
Improvements to existing features:
- testing: improve overflow KUnit test, introduce fortify KUnit test,
add more coverage to LKDTM tests (Bart Van Assche, Kees Cook).
- overflow: Relax overflow type checking for wider utility.
New features:
- string: Introduce strtomem() and strtomem_pad() to fill a gap in
strncpy() replacement needs.
- um: Enable FORTIFY_SOURCE support.
- fortify: Enable run-time struct member memcpy() overflow warning"

"This replaces the prior support for Clang's standard Control Flow
Integrity (CFI) instrumentation, which has required a lot of special
conditions (e.g. LTO) and work-arounds.

designed for the Linux kernel, and takes advantage of architectural
features like x86's IBT. This series retains arm64 support and adds
x86 support.
GCC support is expected in the future[1], and additional "generic"

Pull Rust introductory support from Kees Cook:
"The tree has a recent base, but has fundamentally been in linux-next
for a year and a half[1]. It's been updated based on feedback from the
Kernel Maintainer's Summit, and to gain recent Reviewed-by: tags.
Miguel is the primary maintainer, with me helping where needed/wanted.
Our plan is for the tree to switch to the standard non-rebasing
practice once this initial infrastructure series lands.
The contents are the absolute minimum to get Rust code building in the
kernel, with many more interfaces[2] (and drivers - NVMe[3], 9p[4], M1
GPU[5]) on the way.
The initial support of Rust-for-Linux comes in roughly 4 areas:
- Kernel internals (kallsyms expansion for Rust symbols, %pA format)
- Kbuild infrastructure (Rust build rules and support scripts)
- Rust crates and bindings for initial minimum viable build
- Rust kernel documentation and samples
Rust support has been in linux-next for a year and a half now, and the
short log doesn't do justice to the number of people who have
contributed both to the Linux kernel side but also to the upstream
Rust side to support the kernel's needs. Thanks to these 173 people,
and many more, who have been involved in all kinds of ways:

For each memory location KernelMemorySanitizer maintains two types of
metadata:
1. The so-called shadow of that location - а byte:byte mapping describing
whether or not individual bits of memory are initialized (shadow is 0)
or not (shadow is 1).
2. The origins of that location - а 4-byte:4-byte mapping containing
4-byte IDs of the stack traces where uninitialized values were
created.
Each struct page now contains pointers to two struct pages holding KMSAN
metadata (shadow and origins) for the original struct page. Utility
routines in mm/kmsan/core.c and mm/kmsan/shadow.c handle the metadata
creation, addressing, copying and checking. mm/kmsan/report.c performs
error reporting in the cases an uninitialized value is used in a way that
leads to undefined behavior.
KMSAN compiler instrumentation is responsible for tracking the metadata
along with the kernel memory. mm/kmsan/instrumentation.c provides the
implementation for instrumentation hooks that are called from files
compiled with -fsanitize=kernel-memory.
To aid parameter passing (also done at instrumentation level), each
task_struct now contains a struct kmsan_task_state used to track the
metadata of function parameters and return values for that task.
Finally, this patch provides CONFIG_KMSAN that enables KMSAN, and declares
CFLAGS_KMSAN, which are applied to files compiled with KMSAN. The
KMSAN_SANITIZE:=n Makefile directive can be used to completely disable
KMSAN instrumentation for certain files.
Similarly, KMSAN_ENABLE_CHECKS:=n disables KMSAN checks and makes newly
created stack memory initialized.
Users can also use functions from include/linux/kmsan-checks.h to mark
certain memory regions as uninitialized or initialized (this is called
"poisoning" and "unpoisoning") or check that a particular region is
initialized.

When include/linux/export-internal.h is updated, .vmlinux.export.o
must be rebuilt, but it does not happen because its rule is hidden
behind scripts/link-vmlinux.sh.
Move it out of the shell script, so that Make can see the dependency
between vmlinux and .vmlinux.export.o.
Move the vmlinux rule to scripts/Makefile.vmlinux.

Every EXPORT_SYMBOL creates __kstrtab_* and __kstrtabns_*, which
consumes 15-20% of the kallsyms entries.
For example, on the system built from the x86_64 defconfig,
$ cat /proc/kallsyms | wc
129527 388581 5685465
$ cat /proc/kallsyms | grep __kstrtab | wc
23489 70467 1187932
We already ignore __crc_* symbols populated by EXPORT_SYMBOL, so it
should be fine to ignore __kstrtab_* and __kstrtabns_* as well.
This makes vmlinux a bit smaller.

scripts/mksysmap internally runs ${NM} (dropping some symbols).
When CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y, mksysmap creates .tmp_System.map, but it is
almost the same as the output from the ${NM} invocation in kallsyms().
It is true scripts/mksysmap drops some symbols, but scripts/kallsyms.c
ignores more anyway.
Keep the mksysmap output as *.syms, and reuse it for kallsyms and
'cmp -s'. It saves one ${NM} invocation.
