Pull SoC devicetree updates from Arnd Bergmann: "There are two new mystery SoCs with very little public information about them so far, Qualcomm's Cortex-A78C based "Shikra" and Altera's Cortex-A720 based Agilex72 SOCFPGA. We have also gained support for a couple of SoCs from the 2023/2024 timeframe that have been in the making for a while: - The Apple platform gains support for M3 Pro, Max and Ultra SoC, following the basic M3 support from 7.2. - Samsung Exynos 1580 is a high-end mobile phone SoC from 2024 - Canaan K230 is a RISC-V based 64-bit AI SoC, based on the earlier K210 chip - Sophgo SG2000 is a mixed Arm/RISC-V chip that was already supported using the Arm core but is now also added for RISC-V along with several other variants of the cv18xx series In terms of newly added machines we have reference platforms for all the chips above, plus - Only four 32-bit Arm boards: two older phones and two older industrial/embedded boards; using Allwinner, Qualcomm and Rockchip SoCs - Three laptops und three phones using Qualcomm SoCs - Ten 64-bit Rockchips based single-board computers, along with one NAS box and a game console. - Seven industrial/embedded boards and modules using NXP i.MX8/9 SoCs. - A Lenovo desktop box based on NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX - A few more single-board computers based on Allwinnner A133, Spacemit K1 and TI AM62. As usual, there is a constant stream of minor cleanups and fixes towards addressing the 'dt-check-style --mode strict' warnings, and everyone is expected to address those warnings for new submissions now" * tag 'soc-dt-7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc: (864 commits) Revert "riscv: dts: spacemit: k3: add i2s0-i2s5 nodes" Documentation/process: maintainer-soc: Mention expectation about dt-check-style ARM: dts: helios4: add SATA regulator supplies ARM: dts: helios4: add vcc-supply to GPIO expander ARM: dts: helios4: add vcc-supply to EEPROM arm64: dts: turris-mox: fix usb3 phys arm64: dts: ti: Correct white-space style arm64: dts: ti: k3-am64: Fix MDIO clock reference for ICSSG0 node arm64: dts: qcom: talos-evk: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: sa8155p-adp: Fix swapped USB and UFS QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: eliza-mtp: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: lemans: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: glymur: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: kaanapali: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: sar2130p: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: sm8750: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: sm8650: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: purwa: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: hamoa: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies arm64: dts: qcom: sc8180x: Fix swapped USB QMP PHY vdda-phy/vdda-pll supplies ...

Documentation/process: maintainer-soc: Mention expectation about dt-check-style

2026-08-10T09:25:09+00:00

Any new DTS code should pass dt-check-style 'relaxed' mode without warnings and should have addressed most of applicable 'strict' mode ones.

docs: dt: maintainer: Add Devicetree and OF maintainer profile document

2026-08-07T14:38:47+00:00

Document how Devicetree and Open Firmware maintainers handle their subsystem, especially focusing on two caveats: Devicetree subsystem handles patches with a minor difference comparing to other subsystems: while DT maintainers pick up OF code, they only provide review of DT bindings without applying these. All three DT bindings maintainers rely currently on Patchwork and due to enormous amount of emails per day, regardless how much DT maintainers try, they cannot read all the emails.

docs, resolve_btfids: Document kfunc BTF annotation emission

resolve_btfids now emits the bpf_kfunc and bpf_fastcall BTF decl tags and the arena address_space(1) type attribute for kfuncs, which were previously produced by pahole. Reflect this in the in-tree comments and documentation.

docs: security-bugs: clarify some mandatory steps for AI reports

2026-08-04T14:24:50+00:00

The security team is still seeing a lot of reports lacking a full patch and showing missing contents and formatting issues. Since AI assistants tend to be better than humans at following instructions, let's defer to coding-assistants.rst to follow mandatory steps, and insist on the plain text format, as well as asking for recipient addresses and an e-mail client setup hint to be mentioned early in the report for the reporter. Also add a link to https://github.com/masoncl/kres.git which contains way more advanced and detailed steps for those willing to go further. Tested with Opus-5 and Qwen3.6-27B-Architect-Polaris2-Fable-B-F451, both of which proceeded according to instructions.
