Pull Kbuild fixes from Nathan Chancellor:
- Move probing of '-mfentry' back into Makefile instead of Kconfig
because it does not interact well with toolchains that support
multiple bit widths
- Add a big comment in scripts/Kconfig.toolchain of two pitfalls when
moving cc-option checks from Kbuild to Kconfig

Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "ocfs2: exit recovery thread on mount error path" (Joseph Qi):
Stop OCFS2 recovery before freeing failed-mount state and replay
slots, closing use-after-free and double-free races. Defer
suballocator reclaim to break a transaction-lock deadlock with
dismount.
- "ocfs2: validate suballoc slot and bit of metadata blocks" (Joseph
Qi):
Validate OCFS2 metadata suballocator slots, bits and directory index
block locations. Reject corrupt metadata with filesystem errors
instead of BUGs or out-of-bounds accesses.
- "ocfs2: deal with legacy signed name hash values" (Joseph Qi):
Restore OCFS2 lookups for non-ASCII names stored with legacy signed
hashes. Use stored xattr hashes during bucket splits to avoid
duplicate entries and spurious ENOSPC failures.
- "ocfs2: stabilize dentry names in file and setattr traces" (Cen
Zhang):
Snapshot OCFS2 names during file and setattr tracing to prevent
rename races using freed storage or mismatched names and lengths.
Preserve trace formats and the locked release open-count sample.
- "panic: fix panic_force_cpu= redirect races and NMI bypass" (Bradley
Morgan):
Fix panic_force_cpu races and NMI redirection so crash-kernel CPU
selection is honored. Preserve variable arguments on failed redirects
and use a static message buffer.
- "fat: allocate multiple clusters in fallocate" (Matheus Alves de
Almeida):
Allocate FAT clusters in batches for FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE and batch
FAT updates. This removes repeated single-cluster allocation
overhead, particularly on synchronous mounts.
- "scripts/gdb: fix radix tree lookup and stack depot diagnostic"
(Ting-Han Hou):
Fix GDB radix-tree lookup and its handling of XArray sibling, retry
and zero entries. Also repair the stack-depot diagnostic for an
out-of-range pool index.
- "hung_task: Improve warning budget handling and task reporting"
(Aaron Tomlin):
Reset the hung-task warning budget after recovery so later hangs
remain visible. Keep the configured limit intact and emit one summary
per scan when detailed reports exhaust the budget.
- "bootconfig: Reject unexpected data after null character and
cleanups" (Masami Hiramatsu):
Reject bootconfig data after an embedded null while accepting
trailing padding. Validate the full input in the userspace tool, and
retain internal tree sanity checks there rather than in the kernel.
- "kbuild: GCOV cleanups following the prefer-atomic fix" (Konstantin
Khorenko):
Use the actual GCOV build flags in the prefer-atomic compiler probe.
Move flag setup into scripts/Makefile.gcov and skip the probe when
GCOV is disabled.
- "ocfs2: xattr bucket validation fixes" (Joseph Qi):
Accept valid OCFS2 xattr buckets spanning 512-byte blocks, avoiding
false read-only remounts. Reject misaligned buckets and return errors
instead of panicking on corrupt defrag metadata.
- "ocfs2: fix metadata reservation for xattr value trees" (Joseph Qi):
Reserve enough OCFS2 metadata for new and relocated xattr value
trees. Fix shortfalls which could cause ENOSPC, dropped entries and
leaked clusters on fragmented filesystems; remove duplicate
reservations.
- "Introduce arch_do_panic" (Mete Durlu):
Add arch_do_panic() and move s390 and sparc handling out of generic
panic code. The architecture-specific actions now follow the
end-of-panic marker.
- "checkpatch: userspace improvements" (Petr Vorel):
Improve checkpatch's userspace detection and suppress kernel-only
checks. Recognize standard inttypes macros and add explicit
--userspace and --no-userspace overrides.
- "ocfs2: validate dr_fs_generation of dir index root blocks" (Joseph
Qi):
Check OCFS2 directory index generations and leaf block numbers.
Reject stale or misplaced blocks instead of using metadata left by a
previously formatted filesystem.
- "selftests/membarrier: Skip an unregistered memory barrier test on
Musl" (Chris Gellermann):
Skip the unregistered membarrier test when libc has already
registered the command. Musl does this during thread creation,
causing false failures in the multithreaded test.
- "init: fix array boundary bugs in boot parameter parsing"
(Wilson Felipe Pereira):
Fix boot argument boundary cases which leave stale arguments in
init's command line or panic when replacing the final environment
variable. Clear the last slot and check duplicates before the limit.
Summary of the 87 singletons in this merge:
The OCFS2 singletons fix deadlocks between xattr updates and inline
truncation, and during inode reclaim. Corrupt quota and extent
metadata could also crash the kernel or corrupt memory; these paths
now check the layout before using it. Other fixes close use-after-free
and publication races around cluster reconfiguration, node failure,
quota remount errors and shared refcount trees. New files now retain
security labels from all stacked LSMs instead of silently dropping all
but one. Valid xattr insertions also stop tripping FORTIFY on builds
with counted arrays.
Elsewhere, a lost wakeup could leave hardware-monitoring reads stuck
in unkillable sleep and block further I2C traffic. That is fixed, as
are kernel memory leaks in POSIX message-queue notifications and tmpfs
casefold setup which could grow until memory is exhausted. A driver
removal race which could crash the kernel is fixed too. The
hibernation command through reboot() also stops taking the same mutex
twice, avoiding a deadlock before suspension.
On the boot side, bzip2 decoding now accepts valid full blocks emitted
by lbzip2, fixing failures to boot those compressed kernels. Malformed
bzip2 streams can no longer overflow the decode buffer, and LZ4
initrds are checked before the decoder can read past their end. FAT
rejects geometry which overflows the data-area calculation on 32-bit
systems, and rolls back entries when inode setup fails, preventing
failed creations from reappearing after remount. The x86 XOR and RAID6
AVX paths also avoid imposing a slowdown on subsequent SSE code.

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
"Major changes:
- Introduce scalar evolution (SCEV) analysis in the verifier.
It infers how registers and stack slots change in a loop and lets
the verifier check bounded loops with induction variables as ranges
instead of walking every iteration. The number of processed insns
drops ten fold in programs with loops (Eduard Zingerman)
- Add 'callx' instruction: indirect call of a static BPF subprogram.
The address is taken with ld_imm64 or loaded from read-only data.
Supported by x86-64, arm64 and riscv64 JITs (Alexei Starovoitov, Pu
Lehui)
- Add unwind_goto and unwind_exit instructions, so that Rust panic or
C++ exception can run destructors of every frame it passes through.
The normal path is free of unwind code. Supported by x86-64 and
arm64 JITs (Alexei Starovoitov)
- Support programs compiled by rust-bpf: treat load and store through
a number as arena access with BPF_F_ARENA_SCALAR, accept rust names
in BTF (Alexei Starovoitov)
- Raise BPF program stack size from 512 bytes to 2 KiB on x86-64 and
arm64 (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)
- Support struct, union and __int128 up to 16 bytes passed and
returned by value in BPF subprograms and kfuncs, and fix x86-64 and
arm64 trampolines for such arguments (Yonghong Song)
- Introduce a common way to attach struct_ops to a cgroup via
bpf_link. bpf_tcp_ops is the first user and mirrors TCP sock_ops
callbacks (Martin KaFai Lau, Amery Hung)
- Describe inlined functions in BTF. New kinds tell where the inline
sites are and how to fetch the arguments there.
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF_INLINE keeps it apart from the main BTF in
.BTF.inline section or in btf_vmlinux_inline.ko (Alan Maguire)
- Fix many memory safety, lifetime and locking bugs in BPF core,
verifier, iterators, local storage, dynptr, devmap, cpumap and
seg6local (Josef Bacik, Alexei Starovoitov)
- Diff stat is dominated by selftests and by removal of
lib/test_bpf.c. Its 16k lines of instruction tests were converted
to BPF selftests that BPF CI runs on every architecture it covers
(Daniel Borkmann)
Other features and fixes:
- Add KASAN checks to memory accesses of JITed programs on x86-64
(Alexis Lothoré)
- Complete unification of helper, kfunc and subprog argument checks
in the verifier (Amery Hung)
- Add bpf_copy_from_user_mm[_str]() kfuncs (Anastasios Papagiannis)
- Various features and fixes (Daniel Borkmann):
- Add .bpf keyring for program signature verification, modelled
after dm-verity keyring, and support ML-DSA in signing tools
- Emit shorter and faster code in x86-64 JIT for patterns that
LLVM generates
- Fix various issues in gotox handling
- Let BPF LSM set xattrs at inode creation with bpf_inode_init_xattr()
(David Windsor, Daniel Borkmann)
- Use sleepable page allocation in sleepable arena paths. Fix races
between arena free, allocation and user page fault (Emil Tsalapatis)
- Switch BPF crypto from lskcipher to AES-CBC and AES-ECB libraries
(Eric Biggers)
- Add bpf_proactive_reclaim() kfunc (Hui Zhu)
- Render decl_tags in libbpf btf_dump and add tests for bpftool C
dump (Ihor Solodrai)
- Speed up tracing_multi attach on x86 (Jiri Olsa)
- Various features and fixes (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi):
- Add BPF_PROG_STREAM_OPEN command to read BPF streams through a
file descriptor with poll support
- Let kernel structs publish arena pointers with __arena type tag
- Fix __uninit kfunc output buffers and fastcall rewrite with
indirect stack accesses
- Refuse CO-RE relocations for signed programs
- Add enqueue_rcvq and dequeue_rcvq hooks to bpf_tcp_ops to adjust
sk_rcvlowat and avoid unnecessary wakeups (Kuniyuki Iwashima)
- Add bpf_ksock_sendto() kfunc and allow ksock connect and send from
bpf_wq (Mahe Tardy)
- Fix racy plt target update in arm64 bpf_arch_text_poke()
(Matthew Wood)
- Restructure BPF selftests Makefile as a layered build
(Mykola Lysenko)

div/mod to parisc JITs (Nicholas Dudar, Johan Almbladh)
- Fix stack overflow in build ID parser on 32-bit (Nickolai
Zeldovich)
- Add stack arguments, signed arena loads and gotox to riscv64 JIT.
Pu Lehui is now co-maintainer of riscv BPF JITs (Pu Lehui, Chen
Pei, Feng Jiang)
- Add bpf_call_rcu() and bpf_call_rcu_tasks_trace() kfuncs. Support
fetching and/or/xor atomics in arena on x86-64 (Puranjay Mohan)
- Fix flaky selftests, selftests with clang 23 and bpf-gcc
(Qiliang Yuan, KaFai Wan, Vineet Gupta)
- Fix builds broken by fatal resolve_btfids warnings, BTF generation
on ARC, and define arch_cmpxchg_local() on arc, hexagon and
openrisc (Sasha Levin)
- Reduce memory use of hash maps by up to 50% per element
(T.J. Mercier)
- Mark pointer fields of sched_ext ops arguments as trusted (Tejun
Heo)
- Remove legacy bpf_asm, bpf_dbg and bpf_jit_disasm tools (Xia Yan)
- Fix index overflow in queue and stack maps, arena range tree after
allocation failure, tail call loop after freplace detach, lost
signal in bpf_send_signal() (Yuan Chen)

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Update vendored 'zerocopy' crate to v0.8.62 (released 2026-10-08).
This update advances 8 releases, with 3 of them carrying most of
the changes. It contains new features as well as fixes. However,
almost nothing has changed that requires updates on our side (a
move of our non-ASCII change and the addition of an SPDX license
identifier).
- Generate Rust KUnit test suites for doctests reusing the
'#[kunit_tests]' and '#[test]' attributes instead of C FFI
functions, which allows to remove the generated C glue file.
Relatedly, simplify 'kunit_assert!' by using 'file!()' and
'line!()' inside (which doctests override as needed), which allows
to remove the 'file' helper and 'CONFIG_RUSTC_HAS_SPAN_FILE'.
- Trim the function names in doctests generated by 'rustdoc' < 1.95.0
when building with 'O=', which were not reproducible.
- Fix the 'VM_MAYSHARE' value in the generated bindings and its
blocklist entry, due to typos.
- Build 'core' with '--cfg no_io_statics' to ensure 'core' does not
introduce any use of 'core::sync::atomic' into the kernel image
since upstream Rust is moving 'std::io::Error' into 'core', which
uses a global atomic pointer.
Upstream Rust merged a PR to add a test checking that builds of
'core' are warning-free with that 'cfg' enabled.
- Enable the unstable 'proc_macro_span' feature in 'proc-macro2',
which provides 'Span::join' and thus improves the quality of the
diagnostics of all our procedural macros, notably 'pin-init'. This
is only used for producing diagnostics, thus there is no hard
reliance on the feature.
- Globally allow 'clippy::comparison_chain', since its suggestions
are not always ideal and upstream downgraded it to 'pedantic' too.
'kernel' crate:
- New 'mem' module: add the 'Align<N>' zero-sized type so that
alignment can be specified via const generics ('repr(align(...))'
only works with integer literals), e.g.:
const N: usize = 128;
struct S {
_align: Align<N>,
}
assert_eq!(align_of::<S>(), N);
- New 'ratelimit' module: add the 'Ratelimit' abstraction for 'struct
ratelimit_state' and, based on it, the 'pr_*_ratelimited!' printing
macros, which can be used for printing that may be triggered by
userspace.
In addition, convert Rust Binder to use them.
- 'sync' module: to construct a global 'struct ratelimit_state', add
a 'const' constructor for 'raw_spinlock_t'.
In addition, move the lockdep types into a new 'sync::lockdep'
submodule, since there were starting to be too many of them.
- 'num' module: add the 'cv!' macro to create constant values ("cv")
from an integer constant expression, with validity checked at
compile time, inferring the target type from the context. It works
for any type that implements the new 'FromConst' trait, e.g.:
let a: Alignment = cv!(4096);
let b: Bounded<u32, 4> = cv!(15);
// Any integer constant expression works, not only literals.
let m: NonZero<usize> = cv!(usize::MAX);
// Checked narrowing, including in `const` items.
const SMALL: u8 = cv!(200u32);
// The target type can be given explicitly.
let e = cv!(200u32 => u8);
// With an explicit primitive target, the expression can use
// generic parameters.
const fn as_u64<const KEY: u16>() -> u64 {
cv!(KEY => u64)
}
This avoids the verbose turbofish syntax which disincentivized
using these types at interface boundaries (e.g.
'Alignment::new::<8>()').
- 'alloc' module:
- Allow different error types in 'KBox::pin_slice()', enabling use
of infallible initializers.
- Add 'NumaNode::id()' accessor to retrieve the underlying NUMA
node identifier.
- 'time' module:
- Add 'Delta::to_jiffies_timeout()' for use in timeout arguments.
- Add 'Delta::as_jiffies_unsigned()'.
- Make 'Delta::ZERO' generic over the time unit.
- Warn and assert when passing out-of-range inputs to 'fsleep' and
'udelay'.
- Rename 'ClockSource' to 'ClockId' to better align with naming
conventions in C kernel.
- Make 'CONFIG_HZ' value available as 'bindings::HZ'.
- Add implementation detail documentation for 'HrTimer'.
- 'bitmap' module:
- Add contiguous area operations ('next_zero_area{,_off}', 'set'
and 'clear'), with extra checks compared to the underlying C
code, plus additional ones under 'CONFIG_RUST_BITMAP_HARDENED'.
It includes tests demonstrating the edge cases.
- Restrict bitmap length to at most 'i32::MAX', matching
'BitmapVec::MAX_LEN' and simplifying a few things. This also
fixes 'u32' casts truncating in 'copy_and_extend', which could
otherwise lead to OOB writes.
- 'bug' module:
- Fix 'warn_on!' on UML which called 'warn_slowpath_fmt()' with
the wrong arguments; and fix its '// SAFETY:' comment too.
- Add a KUnit test for 'warn_on!'.
- 'id_pool' module: add contiguous ID reservation via the new
'reserve_ids' and 'release_ids' methods, built on top of the new
bitmap area operations.
- 'sizes' module: add the sub-1K size constants ('SZ_1' to 'SZ_512')
and implement 'SizeConstants' for 'Alignment', so that one can
write e.g. 'Alignment::SZ_8'.
'macros' crate:
- Add '#[optional]' attribute for optional methods in '#[vtable]' to
replace the 'build_error!(VTABLE_DEFAULT_ERROR)' boilerplate, e.g.:
#[vtable]
pub trait Operations: Sized {
#[optional]
fn f(&self) -> Result;
}
In addition, apply it to miscdevice and hide generated 'HAS_'
constants for required methods.
- Allow non-ASCII characters in the 'authors' field of the 'module!'
macro, which was unintentionally restricted when multiple authors
support was introduced.
'pin-init' crate:
[ Extra context from Gary's pull request:
"This is a cycle packed with feature updates. Two of the most
anticipated features, tuple struct support and safe self
reference creation, has been included in this pull request.
Safe self reference is a big one and is pushed a bit late in the
cycle. The initial plan was to include a minimum subset for this
cycle because I was worried about potential soundness issues;
however during Plumbers it was agreed that the features should be
upstreamed at once. This is because the initial users (Nova,
JobQueue) would all need the advanced features, so it is better
to ensure that the feature get put into use for real, and it can
iterate with users, rather than being fully designed on paper.
The existing safety checks are already very comprehensive, and
Benno and I are confident that if new ones are discovered, it
wouldn't affect the overall design.
That said, the the usage of the advanced features (invariance,
existential lifetime) shall be limited to the pre-agreed users
only, so even in case where the feature needs to be reworked, the
blast radius is limited.
Another theme in this cycle is to improve the developer
experience when things are used wrongly. A lot of work has been
done to use proper spans from user-provided tokens so error
message point to things that cause them. Many common misuse
scenarios also gain additional custom diagnostics." ]
- User visible changes:
- Support tuple structs.
- Allow safe creation of self references.
- Vastly improve diagnostics for common misuse scenarios.
- Other changes:
- Use 'mixed_site' hygiene consistently.
'MAINTAINERS':
- Add 'RUST [BUG]' entry for the Rust 'bug' module (i.e. 'warn_on!'),
which will be maintained by FUJITA Tomonori -- thank you!
- Add Alice Ryhl as co-maintainer for 'Rust [ALLOC]'.
And some other fixes, cleanups and improvements.

Unlike cc-option in Kbuild, cc-option in Kconfig does not test options
with either bit ('-m32' / '-m64') or endianness ('-mbig-endian' /
'-mlittle-endian') flags because which flag to use may depend on the
result of the configuration stage. This difference changes the result of
testing for '-mfentry' support when using the kernel.org s390 cross
compiler, which is configured for 32-bit by default.
$ s390-linux-gcc -mfentry -o /dev/null -x c -c /dev/null
cc1: error: '-mfentry' is supported only for 64-bit CPUs
arch/s390/Makefile sets '-m64' in KBUILD_CPPFLAGS early, so '-mfentry'
support was properly tested before the move to Kconfig.
$ s390-linux-gcc -m64 -mfentry -o /dev/null -x c -c /dev/null
Ricardo reported another issue with moving this check from Kbuild to
Kconfig, as '-mfentry' is not supported for x86_32 without '-fno-pic',
which affects GCC builds that are configured with PIE enabled by
default. arch/x86/Makefile adds '-fno-pic' to KBUILD_CFLAGS, so this
works properly in Kbuild.
Move the '-mfentry' check back into Kbuild to avoid adding additional
complexity to the Kconfig entry.

KASAN/KCOV/UBSAN makefiles do
* keep the include before scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins: the try-run

CFLAGS_GCOV is no longer defined when CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL is off:

Patch series "kbuild: GCOV cleanups following the prefer-atomic fix".
Two cleanups Peter Oberparleiter suggested while reviewing commit
56cb9b7d96b2 ("gcov: use atomic counter updates to fix concurrent access
crashes"):
https://lore.kernel.org/e1b6e768-51af-468b-a729-0ed3fceef2f1@linux.ibm.com
Patch 1 makes the prefer-atomic try-run test reuse $(CFLAGS_GCOV) instead
of spelling the flags out again, so the test compiles with the exact GCOV
flags, -fno-tree-loop-im included.
Patch 2 moves the CFLAGS_GCOV block into scripts/Makefile.gcov, included
via include-$(CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL) like the other instrumentation
makefiles. The try-run also stops running on builds without GCOV.
This patch (of 2):
Reference $(CFLAGS_GCOV) in the try-run test introduced by
commit 56cb9b7d96b2 ("gcov: use atomic counter updates to fix
concurrent access crashes"), otherwise it can miss potential future
changes in the list of flags used for GCOV profiling like it misses
-fno-tree-loop-im at the moment.
The outcome of the test is unchanged: -fno-tree-loop-im does not affect
the undefined symbols the test compares.

Pull pin-init updates from Gary Guo:
"User visible changes:
- Support tuple structs.
- Allow safe creation of self references.
- Vastly improve diagnostics for common misuse scenarios.
Other changes:
- Use 'mixed_site' hygiene consistently."
Extra context from Gary's pull request:
"This is a cycle packed with feature updates. Two of the most anticipated
features, tuple struct support and safe self reference creation, has been
included in this pull request.
Safe self reference is a big one and is pushed a bit late in the cycle. The
initial plan was to include a minimum subset for this cycle because I was
worried about potential soundness issues; however during Plumbers it was agreed
that the features should be upstreamed at once. This is because the initial
users (Nova, JobQueue) would all need the advanced features, so it is better to
ensure that the feature get put into use for real, and it can iterate with
users, rather than being fully designed on paper. The existing safety checks
are already very comprehensive, and Benno and I are confident that if new ones
are discovered, it wouldn't affect the overall design.
That said, the the usage of the advanced features (invariance, existential
lifetime) shall be limited to the pre-agreed users only, so even in case where
the feature needs to be reworked, the blast radius is limited.
Another theme in this cycle is to improve the developer experience when things
are used wrongly. A lot of work has been done to use proper spans from
user-provided tokens so error message point to things that cause them. Many
common misuse scenarios also gain additional custom diagnostics."

Expose BTF inline-location information from vmlinux .BTF.inline
sections in /sys/kernel/btf as vmlinux.inline. Embedded vmlinux
inline BTF supports read-only mmap().
Provide runtime support for a module-delivered vmlinux inline BTF
carrier. Its link record binds the carrier module name, BTF size, and
SHA-256 digest to the running kernel before its data is made available
through a lazy vmlinux.inline sysfs attribute. The carrier is handled
before ordinary module BTF registration, so its incidental .BTF data is
not exposed.
Make CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF_INLINE tristate. When configured as a
module, retain vmlinux final split inline BTF for
btf_vmlinux_inline.ko instead of embedding it in vmlinux.
Reserve .BTF.inline.link in vmlinux and extend the final
resolve_btfids patch pass to bind btf_vmlinux_inline to the raw
vmlinux.BTF.inline payload. This preserves the normal built-in
configuration while allowing the large inline BTF payload to load on
demand.
Normal module inline BTF is handled separately, after its
references have been relocated against the final module BTF.

The lint would suggest comparison chains to be converted to match on
`Ordering` instead. The suggestions do not always produce more readable
code, and also it can produce false-positive when not all ordering has a
branch.
The issue is known upstream and thus it has been downgraded from style
lints to pedantic lints, which makes it allow-by-default since Rust 1.87.0.
The current kernel MSRV is 1.85.0, and thus the lint still triggers; allow
it globally to match the updated upstream behaviour.

There have been various attempts at adding a header test or check
mechanism in the kernel build system. The header check primarily
consists of ensuring headers are self-contained, have include guards,
and, in some cases, pass kernel-doc.
The main problems have been:
- The dependency tracking creates undesirable artefacts (infamously also
known as disgusting turds) in the build directory.
- Gating the feature behind a kconfig option is complicated due to
allyesconfig builds. It's possible, but requires a verbose and
confusing negative proxy config option.
- Naming the dependency tracking files with a dot prefix or placing them
in a dot prefixed subdirectory in the build directory to hide them has
been exceedingly difficult to achieve. (In part due to some Makefiles
building files in subdirectory hierarchies.)
- The debate which headers, if any, should really be self-contained is
virtually open-ended.
Approach the problem from a slightly different angle. Add a top level
"headercheck" static analysis target which you have to explicitly run,
and where you have to explicitly state which headers to check:
$ make HEADER_CHECK="(headers|dirs)" headercheck
For example:
$ make HEADER_CHECK="include/drm drivers/gpu/drm/drm_draw_internal.h" headercheck
You can specify multiple path/to/header.h or path/to/dir, relative to
$(srctree), where path/to/dir is recursively scanned for any .h files.
Add a generic %.header-check rule in scripts/Makefile.build to support
this. Note that this rule should *not* be used in, say, driver or
subsystem makefile targets, precisely because of the problems listed
above.
While this still generates the .header-check dependency tracking
artefacts in the build directory, you will only get them as a result of
manually running 'make headercheck', not as part of the regular build.
This approach also allows anyone to check any headers in the tree, with
no makefile modification or kconfig changes required. What you do with
the results is up to you, and the header check facility does not enforce
anything like it would as part of the regular build.

tools/unittests/run.py discovers and runs the unit tests there (which
are primarily documentation tools), but nothing in the build calls it,
so the tests are only run by whoever remembers that the script is there.
Give it a target, next to the other checks that need no Sphinx. The name
ends in "docs", so it matches the "%docs" pattern already in
no-dot-config-targets and runs without a configured tree, and it sets
PYTHONPYCACHEPREFIX as the other Python targets here do, to keep
__pycache__ directories out of the source tree.

The gzip step of a kernel build is very lengthy, especially for larger
builds such as allmodconfig.
gzip itself cannot be run in parallel, however an alternative tool exists
that can, providing the same feature set as gzip itself - pigz - which
works as a drop-in replacement.
On a 128-core Threadripper, gzip -9 of a 36 MiB x86-64 vmlinux.bin takes
1.6s, and with pigz it takes 0.09s, so the performance increase is
significant.
Therefore introduce the KPGZIP build variable which specifies the
compressor to use for the kernel image and default it to pigz if available,
or KGZIP otherwise (which itself defaults to gzip).
Modules, packaging and the embedded kernel configuration (CONFIG_IKCONFIG)
continue to use KGZIP which defaults to a single-threaded gzip instance.
Module compression is run in parallel by make, so pigz offers no benefit
there, packaging sits outside the build and the embedded configuration is
too small to matter.
pigz is executed using scripts/jobserver-exec, which reserves the job slots
make has free - necessary, as otherwise pigz would just grab unbounded
CPUs.
The kernel image compression step is always performed at the end of the
build so should typically have all job slots available.
pigz always provides byte-for-byte identical output across runs regardless
of thread count, but pigz and gzip are not guaranteed to generate the same
binary output, so reproducible builds must use the same tools consistently.
Also update Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.rst to describe KPGZIP and
Documentation/process/changes.rst to list the optional pigz dependency.
While there, add entries for the other compressor programs.
Finally, update scripts/ver_linux to include the pigz version there.
Every x86 build ends with the compression of vmlinux.bin, 36MB for
defconfig and over 200MB for allmodconfig, no-op builds are unchanged.

Each kernel make invocation begins with ~30 compiler and linker runs each
of which performs duplicate probe for a number of compiler and linker
options.
This is useless work - the compiler and its version is known, so use these
to determine which options are available, once.
Using the newly introduced cc-option-str, track the result of each probe in
CC_OPT_*, LD_OPT_* variables and have Makefile's simply append the symbol.
Some care has to be taken around negative options, i.e. -Wno-xxx, as gcc
accepts an unknown -Wno- without complaint and only complains later, so
instead probe the positive form for these cases.
Use CC_HAS_* For those probes that gate a Makefile conditional rather than
a simple option, as per the established pattern for this.
This change avoids a subtle issue with ppc32 (big endian) - clang doesn't
accept -fno-stack-clash-protection on this sub-target, so keep this option
in the Makefile.
With gcc and clang, defconfig and allmodconfig, the recorded command
lines are unchanged, a build with nothing to do rebuilds nothing and W=1
continues to function correctly.
Doing this improves all builds, but has a particularly positive impact on
no-op builds (builds where nothing has changed).

A kernel build consists of more than one linking pass on vmlinux.o and
vmlinux, at minimum two, and with CONFIG_KALLSYMS and BTF enabled on x86-64
for example there are 5 such stages.
For architectures that build their own relocation tables (x86, riscv, mips,
s390), vmlinux is linked with the --emit-relocs parameter specified.
However, this is only required on the final vmlinux link.
Symbol tables of trial links preceding it don't need it because they
already check that System.map matches kallsyms symbols on each build.
GNU ld is slow at emitting relocation tables, so this results in a
reduction in build time.

When `CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS` is enabled, it is possible to hit
`objtool` warnings like:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: _R..._4cmdq12CommandToGsp4init()
falls through to next function _R..._4core5array4iter8IntoIterRShKj3_EEEBa_()
`rustc` normally emits traps for unreachable paths. However, under
`CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS=y`, `rustc` emits LLVM bitcode and Clang
performs final code generation after the helper bitcode is linked,
but Clang does not trap unreachable IR by default.
In turn, this means `objtool` follows compiler-generated impossible Rust
`enum` paths through alignment padding into the next function, resulting
in fallthrough warnings.
Thus pass the LLVM `trap-unreachable` option to the final Clang invocation
and suppress traps immediately after `noreturn` calls, which `objtool`
already recognizes as dead ends. The combination of both flags makes it
match `rustc`'s behavior.
Rust 1.85.0 (the minimum supported one) supports LLVM >= 18, and both
flags are available in LLVM 18.

In Rust doc tests, there is a dummy `__module_firmware_test_init` function
generated by the example in `module_firmware!`'s documentation, which
just returns zero. Many other documentation examples generate functions
that produce zero. LKP test robot reports [1] a `Flags::zeroed` instance;
my local reproduction has a `Bounded::new::<0>`.
LLVM's MergeFunctionsPass incorrectly merges functions with different
KCFI types, causing `__module_firmware_test_init` to be merged into
one of the zero-returning functions. As module init is invoked via an
indirect function call, KCFI is checked and this produces a KCFI failure.
I've reported this bug to upstream LLVM [2]; in the meantime, disable
function merging if CFI is enabled. No separate treatment is needed for
CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS, as Clang does not enable function merging
by default.
[ LLVM already has a pending PR:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/217665
which solves the issue. In addition, I asked upstream Rust if the
unstable `-Zmerge-functions=disabled` flag will remain around:
https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/425075-rust-for-linux/topic/.60-Zmerge-functions.3Ddisabled.60/
and it does indeed look like that will be the case. - Miguel ]

Commit 7a342e6c7735 ("kbuild: move modules.builtin(.modinfo) rules to
Makefile.vmlinux_o") moved the modules.builtin(.modinfo) rules from
link-vmlinux.sh to Makefile.vmlinux_o, and added the corresponding
targets to the top-level Makefile.
Commit 39cfd5b12160 ("kbuild: extract modules.builtin.modinfo from
vmlinux.unstripped") later moved these rules from Makefile.vmlinux_o to
Makefile.vmlinux, but left the corresponding targets in the top-level
Makefile unchanged.
These modules.builtin(.modinfo) targets in the top-level Makefile should
be moved alongside the vmlinux target, since they are now generated by
Makefile.vmlinux.
However, simply removing these trivial targets might be a better choice,
as it makes the Makefile cleaner and avoids the need to keep them in sync
across multiple files, reducing the chance of future mistakes.

Pull rust fixes from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- 'zerocopy' crates: update to v0.8.54 to fix a modpost error under
'CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y'.
There are actually two updates in the PR: the one to v0.8.52 is
fairly large and was originally not intended for a fixes PR, but the
actual fix landed in the v0.8.54 one. Thus I included both here.
The v0.8.52 update includes two things upstream added for us:
'--cfg no_fp_fmt_parse' to avoid a local workaround, and the new
'most_traits' feature.
The good news is that, after these updates, the delta with upstream
is now trivial: only an identifier prefix change and the SPDX
parentheses.
- Fix an objtool warning by adding one more 'noreturn' function for
Rust 1.99.0 (expected 2026-10-01).
- Clean up new 'semicolon_in_expressions_from_macros' lint errors for
Rust 1.99.0 (expected 2026-10-01). The lint can be allowed, but it
will be a hard error at some point in the future anyway, so clean it
up now.
- Locally allow new 'suspicious_runtime_symbol_definitions' lint for
Rust 1.98.0 (expected 2026-08-20).
- Globally allow 'clippy::unwrap_or_default' lint since it relies on
optimizations -- under 'CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y' it does not
work well.

Update output Makefile in the corresponding tree only: for out-of-source
in-tree builds update $(objtree)/Makefile, for out-of-source out-of-tree
module builds update $(KBUILD_EXTMOD_OUTPUT)/Makefile instead.
In-source builds are not affected.
Since commit c9bb03ac2c66 ("kbuild: reduce output spam when building out
of tree"), building out-of-tree kernel modules out-of-source (make M=...
MO=...) causes a rewrite of $(objtree)/Makefile with KBUILD_EXTMOD and
KBUILD_EXTMOD_OUTPUT being set. That is problematic:
* $(objtree)/ must not be changed in any way when building out-of-tree
modules as it breaks other uses of $(objtree).
* Setting KBUILD_EXTMOD and KBUILD_EXTMOD_OUTPUT in $(objtree)/Makefile
kills the tree for incremental builds that start right there
('make -C $(objtree)'); builds starting in $(srctree) reset
$(objtree)/Makefile to its original content.
Further, $(KBUILD_EXTMOD_OUTPUT)/Makefile was not generated any more at
all.
This commit restores the previous kbuild behaviour prior to commit
c9bb03ac2c66 ("kbuild: reduce output spam when building out of tree")
but leaves in-place the use of filechk for output spam reduction.

Starting with rustc 1.88, the `clippy::unwrap_or_default` lint triggers
on `rust/kernel/soc.rs` if `CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y`:
warning: use of `unwrap_or` to construct default value
--> ../rust/kernel/soc.rs:66:10
|
66 | .unwrap_or(core::ptr::null())
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: try: `unwrap_or_default()`
This is a clippy bug [1]: the lint decides whether an expression is
equivalent to `Default::default()` by inspecting the optimized MIR of
`<*const T as Default>::default` exported by `core`, so its outcome
depends on the optimization level `core` was built with. Moreover, its
suggestion ignores our MSRV of 1.85 (`Default` for `*const T` is only
stable since Rust 1.88), so we could not apply it anyway.
Disable the lint globally rather than working around this single
occurrence; it can be re-enabled conditionally using `rustc-min-version`
once clippy is fixed.

The kselftest build system may recourse back into kbuild when building
test modules. In that case kbuild needs to parse the new flags passed
from the command line, instead of using the ones inherited from the
kbuild invocation.
