kbuild: generate offset range data for builtin modules
Create file module.builtin.ranges that can be used to find where
built-in modules are located by their addresses. This will be useful for
tracing tools to find what functions are for various built-in modules.
The offset range data for builtin modules is generated using:
- modules.builtin: associates object files with module names
- vmlinux.map: provides load order of sections and offset of first member
per section
- vmlinux.o.map: provides offset of object file content per section
- .*.cmd: build cmd file with KBUILD_MODFILE
The generated data will look like:
.text 00000000-00000000 = _text
.text 0000baf0-0000cb10 amd_uncore
.text 0009bd10-0009c8e0 iosf_mbi
...
.text 00b9f080-00ba011a intel_skl_int3472_discrete
.text 00ba0120-00ba03c0 intel_skl_int3472_discrete intel_skl_int3472_tps68470
.text 00ba03c0-00ba08d6 intel_skl_int3472_tps68470
...
.data 00000000-00000000 = _sdata
.data 0000f020-0000f680 amd_uncore
For each ELF section, it lists the offset of the first symbol. This can
be used to determine the base address of the section at runtime.
Next, it lists (in strict ascending order) offset ranges in that section
that cover the symbols of one or more builtin modules. Multiple ranges
can apply to a single module, and ranges can be shared between modules.
The CONFIG_BUILTIN_MODULE_RANGES option controls whether offset range data
is generated for kernel modules that are built into the kernel image.
How it works:
1. The modules.builtin file is parsed to obtain a list of built-in
module names and their associated object names (the .ko file that
the module would be in if it were a loadable module, hereafter
referred to as <kmodfile>). This object name can be used to
identify objects in the kernel compile because any C or assembler
code that ends up into a built-in module will have the option
-DKBUILD_MODFILE=<kmodfile> present in its build command, and those
can be found in the .<obj>.cmd file in the kernel build tree.
If an object is part of multiple modules, they will all be listed
in the KBUILD_MODFILE option argument.
This allows us to conclusively determine whether an object in the
kernel build belong to any modules, and which.
2. The vmlinux.map is parsed next to determine the base address of each
top level section so that all addresses into the section can be
turned into offsets. This makes it possible to handle sections
getting loaded at different addresses at system boot.
We also determine an 'anchor' symbol at the beginning of each
section to make it possible to calculate the true base address of
a section at runtime (i.e. symbol address - symbol offset).
We collect start addresses of sections that are included in the top
level section. This is used when vmlinux is linked using vmlinux.o,
because in that case, we need to look at the vmlinux.o linker map to
know what object a symbol is found in.
And finally, we process each symbol that is listed in vmlinux.map
(or vmlinux.o.map) based on the following structure:
vmlinux linked from vmlinux.a:
vmlinux.map:
<top level section>
<included section> -- might be same as top level section)
<object> -- built-in association known
<symbol> -- belongs to module(s) object belongs to
...
vmlinux linked from vmlinux.o:
vmlinux.map:
<top level section>
<included section> -- might be same as top level section)
vmlinux.o -- need to use vmlinux.o.map
<symbol> -- ignored
...
vmlinux.o.map:
<section>
<object> -- built-in association known
<symbol> -- belongs to module(s) object belongs to
...
3. As sections, objects, and symbols are processed, offset ranges are
constructed in a straight-forward way:
- If the symbol belongs to one or more built-in modules:
- If we were working on the same module(s), extend the range
to include this object
- If we were working on another module(s), close that range,
and start the new one
- If the symbol does not belong to any built-in modules:
- If we were working on a module(s) range, close that range

Rust changes for v6.11
The highlight is the establishment of a minimum version for the Rust toolchain, including 'rustc' (and bundled tools) and 'bindgen'. The initial minimum will be the pinned version we currently have, i.e. we are just widening the allowed versions. That covers 3 stable Rust releases: 1.78.0, 1.79.0, 1.80.0 (getting released tomorrow), plus beta, plus nightly. This should already be enough for kernel developers in distributions that provide recent Rust compiler versions routinely, such as Arch Linux, Debian Unstable (outside the freeze period), Fedora Linux, Gentoo Linux (especially the testing channel), Nix (unstable) and openSUSE Slowroll and Tumbleweed. In addition, the kernel is now being built-tested by Rust's pre-merge CI. That is, every change that is attempting to land into the Rust compiler is tested against the kernel, and it is merged only if it passes. Similarly, the bindgen tool has agreed to build the kernel in their CI too. Thus, with the pre-merge CI in place, both projects hope to avoid unintentional changes to Rust that break the kernel. This means that, in general, apart from intentional changes on their side (that we will need to workaround conditionally on our side), the upcoming Rust compiler versions should generally work. In addition, the Rust project has proposed getting the kernel into stable Rust (at least solving the main blockers) as one of its three flagship goals for 2024H2 [1]. I would like to thank Niko, Sid, Emilio et al. for their help promoting the collaboration between Rust and the kernel. [1] https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-project-goals/2024h2/index.html#flagship-goals Toolchain and infrastructure: - Support several Rust toolchain versions. - Support several bindgen versions. - Remove 'cargo' requirement and simplify 'rusttest', thanks to 'alloc' having been dropped last cycle. - Provide proper error reporting for the 'rust-analyzer' target.

kbuild: raise the minimum GNU Make requirement to 4.0
RHEL/CentOS 7, popular distributions that install GNU Make 3.82, reached EOM/EOL on June 30, 2024. While you may get extended support, it is a good time to raise the minimum GNU Make version. The new requirement, GNU Make 4.0, was released in October, 2013. I did not touch the Makefiles under tools/ because I do not know the requirements for building tools. I do not find any GNU Make version checks under tools/. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> |

docs: rust: quick-start: add section on Linux distributions
Now that we are starting to support several Rust compiler and `bindgen` versions, there is a good chance some Linux distributions work out of the box. Thus, provide some instructions on how to set the toolchain up for a few major Linux distributions. This simplifies the setup users need to build the kernel. In addition, add an introduction to the document so that it is easier to understand its structure and move the LLVM+Rust kernel.org toolchains paragraph there (removing "depending on the Linux version"). We may want to reorganize the document or split it in the future, but I wanted to focus this commit on the new information added about each particular distribution. Finally, remove the `rustup`'s components mention in `changes.rst` since users do not need it if they install the toolchain via the distributions (and anyway it was too detailed for that main document).

rust: start supporting several compiler versions
It is time to start supporting several Rust compiler versions and thus establish a minimum Rust version. We may still want to upgrade the minimum sometimes in the beginning since there may be important features coming into the language that improve how we write code (e.g. field projections), which may or may not make sense to support conditionally. We will start with a window of two stable releases, and widen it over time. Thus this patch does not move the current minimum (1.78.0), but instead adds support for the recently released 1.79.0. This should already be enough for kernel developers in distributions that provide recent Rust compiler versions routinely, such as Arch Linux, Debian Unstable (outside the freeze period), Fedora Linux, Gentoo Linux (especially the testing channel), Nix (unstable) and openSUSE Tumbleweed. See the documentation patch about it later in this series. In addition, Rust for Linux is now being built-tested in Rust's pre-merge CI [1]. That is, every change that is attempting to land into the Rust compiler is tested against the kernel, and it is merged only if it passes -- thanks to the Rust project for that! Thus, with the pre-merge CI in place, both projects hope to avoid unintentional changes to Rust that break the kernel. This means that, in general, apart from intentional changes on their side (that we will need to workaround conditionally on our side), the upcoming Rust compiler versions should generally work. For instance, currently, the beta (1.80.0) and nightly (1.81.0) branches work as well. Of course, the Rust for Linux CI job in the Rust toolchain may still need to be temporarily disabled for different reasons, but the intention is to help bring Rust for Linux into stable Rust.

arm64: boot: Support Flat Image Tree
Add a script which produces a Flat Image Tree (FIT), a single file containing the built kernel and associated devicetree files. Compression defaults to gzip which gives a good balance of size and performance. The files compress from about 86MB to 24MB using this approach. The FIT can be used by bootloaders which support it, such as U-Boot and Linuxboot. It permits automatic selection of the correct devicetree, matching the compatible string of the running board with the closest compatible string in the FIT. There is no need for filenames or other workarounds. Add a 'make image.fit' build target for arm64, as well. The FIT can be examined using 'dumpimage -l'. This uses the 'dtbs-list' file but processes only .dtb files, ignoring the overlay .dtbo files. This features requires pylibfdt (use 'pip install libfdt'). It also requires compression utilities for the algorithm being used. Supported compression options are the same as the Image.xxx files. Use FIT_COMPRESSION to select an algorithm other than gzip. While FIT supports a ramdisk / initrd, no attempt is made to support this here, since it must be built separately from the Linux build.

kbuild: raise the minimum supported version of LLVM to 13.0.1
Patch series "Bump the minimum supported version of LLVM to 13.0.1".
This series bumps the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the
kernel to 13.0.1. The first patch does the bump and all subsequent
patches clean up all the various workarounds and checks for earlier
versions.
Quoting the first patch's commit message for those that were only on CC
for the clean ups:
When __builtin_mul_overflow() has arguments that differ in terms of
signedness and width, LLVM may generate a libcall to __muloti4 because
it performs the checks in terms of 65-bit multiplication. This issue
becomes harder to hit (but still possible) after LLVM 12.0.0, which
includes a special case for matching widths but different signs.
To gain access to this special case, which the kernel can take advantage
of when calls to __muloti4 appear, bump the minimum supported version of
LLVM for building the kernel to 13.0.1. 13.0.1 was chosen because there
is minimal impact to distribution support while allowing a few more
workarounds to be dropped in the kernel source than if 12.0.0 were
chosen. Looking at container images of up to date distribution versions:
archlinux:latest clang version 16.0.6
debian:oldoldstable-slim clang version 7.0.1-8+deb10u2 (tags/RELEASE_701/final)
debian:oldstable-slim Debian clang version 11.0.1-2
debian:stable-slim Debian clang version 14.0.6
debian:testing-slim Debian clang version 16.0.6 (19)
debian:unstable-slim Debian clang version 16.0.6 (19)
fedora:38 clang version 16.0.6 (Fedora 16.0.6-3.fc38)
fedora:latest clang version 17.0.6 (Fedora 17.0.6-1.fc39)
fedora:rawhide clang version 17.0.6 (Fedora 17.0.6-1.fc40)
opensuse/leap:latest clang version 15.0.7
opensuse/tumbleweed:latest clang version 17.0.6
ubuntu:focal clang version 10.0.0-4ubuntu1
ubuntu:latest Ubuntu clang version 14.0.0-1ubuntu1.1
ubuntu:rolling Ubuntu clang version 16.0.6 (15)
ubuntu:devel Ubuntu clang version 17.0.6 (3)
The only distribution that gets left behind is Debian Bullseye, as the
default version is 11.0.1; other distributions either have a newer
version than 13.0.1 or one older than the current minimum of 11.0.0.
Debian has easy access to more recent LLVM versions through
apt.llvm.org, so this is not as much of a concern. There are also the
kernel.org LLVM toolchains, which should work with distributions with
glibc 2.28 and newer.
Another benefit of slimming up the number of supported versions of LLVM
for building the kernel is reducing the build capacity needed to support
a matrix that builds with each supported version, which allows a matrix
to reallocate the freed up build capacity towards something else, such
as more configuration combinations.
This passes my build matrix with all supported versions.
This is based on Andrew's mm-nonmm-unstable to avoid trivial conflicts
with my series to update the LLVM links across the repository [1] but I
can easily rebase it to linux-kbuild if Masahiro would rather these
patches go through there (and defer the conflict resolution to the merge
window).

Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including:
- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following a
warning that was added in 6.2.
- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to, hopefully,
make it more useful.
- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly with
__counted_by annotations.
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent
structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the delightful
consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs build. A sustained
effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has addressed almost all of those,
bringing the documentation back into sync with the code. The fixes are
going through the appropriate maintainer trees.
- Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic links
to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations easy to
access.
- Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese.
...plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes.

Docs: remove mentions of fdformat from util-linux
Since util-linux commit 13b26e3c36d1
("fdformat: remove command from default build")
the fdformat tool is not built anymore by default.
As a result it is not packaged anymore by distributions and therefore
not usable by users.
Instead mention the "mount" command as more likely to be present
alternative.
Also drop the reference to fdformat from the list of features of new
versions of util-linux.

This was fixed in bindgen 0.62.0. Therefore, upgrade bindgen to
a more recent version, 0.65.1, to support LLVM 16.
Since bindgen 0.58.0 changed the `--{white,black}list-*` flags to
`--{allow,block}list-*` [3], update them on our side too.
In addition, bindgen 0.61.0 moved its CLI utility into a binary crate
called `bindgen-cli` [4]. Thus update the installation command in the
Quick Start guide.
Moreover, bindgen 0.61.0 changed the default functionality to bind
`size_t` to `usize` [5] and added the `--no-size_t-is-usize` flag
to not bind `size_t` as `usize`. Then bindgen 0.65.0 removed
the `--size_t-is-usize` flag [6]. Thus stop passing the flag to bindgen.
Finally, bindgen 0.61.0 added support for the `noreturn` attribute (in
its different forms) [7]. Thus remove the infinite loop in our Rust
panic handler after calling `BUG()`, since bindgen now correctly
generates a `BUG()` binding that returns `!` instead of `()`.

rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2
This is the first upgrade to the Rust toolchain since the initial Rust
merge, from 1.62.0 to 1.68.2 (i.e. the latest).
# Context
The kernel currently supports only a single Rust version [1] (rather
than a minimum) given our usage of some "unstable" Rust features [2]
which do not promise backwards compatibility.
The goal is to reach a point where we can declare a minimum version for
the toolchain. For instance, by waiting for some of the features to be
stabilized. Therefore, the first minimum Rust version that the kernel
will support is "in the future".
# Upgrade policy
Given we will eventually need to reach that minimum version, it would be
ideal to upgrade the compiler from time to time to be as close as
possible to that goal and find any issues sooner. In the extreme, we
could upgrade as soon as a new Rust release is out. Of course, upgrading
so often is in stark contrast to what one normally would need for GCC
and LLVM, especially given the release schedule: 6 weeks for Rust vs.
half a year for LLVM and a year for GCC.
Having said that, there is no particular advantage to updating slowly
either: kernel developers in "stable" distributions are unlikely to be
able to use their distribution-provided Rust toolchain for the kernel
anyway [3]. Instead, by routinely upgrading to the latest instead,
kernel developers using Linux distributions that track the latest Rust
release may be able to use those rather than Rust-provided ones,
especially if their package manager allows to pin / hold back /
downgrade the version for some days during windows where the version may
not match. For instance, Arch, Fedora, Gentoo and openSUSE all provide
and track the latest version of Rust as they get released every 6 weeks.
Then, when the minimum version is reached, we will stop upgrading and
decide how wide the window of support will be. For instance, a year of
Rust versions. We will probably want to start small, and then widen it
over time, just like the kernel did originally for LLVM, see commit

This applies to both the shared infrastructure at `rust/` as well as any other Rust module (e.g. drivers) written across the kernel. However, these documents contain general information that does not fit particularly well in the source code, like the Quick Start guide.

scripts/check-local-export: avoid 'wait $!' for process substitution
Bash 4.4, released in 2016, supports 'wait $!' to check the exit status
of a process substitution, but it seems too new.
Some people using older bash versions (on CentOS 7, Ubuntu 16.04, etc.)
reported an error like this:
./scripts/check-local-export: line 54: wait: pid 17328 is not a child of this shell
I used the process substitution to avoid a pipeline, which executes each
command in a subshell. If the while-loop is executed in the subshell
context, variable changes within are lost after the subshell terminates.
Fortunately, Bash 4.2, released in 2011, supports the 'lastpipe' option,
which makes the last element of a pipeline run in the current shell process.
Switch to the pipeline with 'lastpipe' solution, and also set 'pipefail'
to catch errors from ${NM}.
Add the bash requirement to Documentation/process/changes.rst.
Fixes:

Documentation: Raise the minimum supported version of LLVM to 11.0.0
LLVM versions prior to 11.0.0 have a harder time with dead code elimination, which can cause issues with commonly used expressions such as BUILD_BUG_ON and the bitmask functions/macros in bitfield.h (see the first two issues links below). Whenever there is an issue within LLVM that has been resolved in a later release, the only course of action is to gate the problematic configuration or source code on the toolchain verson or raise the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel, as LLVM has a limited support lifetime compared to GCC. GCC major releases will typically see a few point releases across a two year period on average whereas LLVM major releases are only supported until the next major release and will only see one or two point releases within that timeframe. For example, GCC 8.1 was released in May 2018 and GCC 8.5 was released in May 2021, whereas LLVM 12.0.0 was released in April 2021 and its only point release, 12.0.1, was released in July 2021, giving a minimal window for fixes to be backported. To resolve these build errors around improper dead code elimination, raise the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel to 11.0.0. Doing so is a more proper solution than mucking around with core kernel macros that have always worked with GCC or disabling drivers for using these macros in a proper manner. This type of issue may continue to crop up and require patching, which creates more debt for bumping the minimum supported version in the future. This should have a minimal impact to distributions. Using a script to pull several different Docker images and check the output of 'clang --version': archlinux:latest: clang version 13.0.0 debian:oldoldstable-slim: clang version 3.8.1-24 (tags/RELEASE_381/final) debian:oldstable-slim: clang version 7.0.1-8+deb10u2 (tags/RELEASE_701/final) debian:stable-slim: Debian clang version 11.0.1-2 debian:testing-slim: Debian clang version 11.1.0-4 debian:unstable-slim: Debian clang version 11.1.0-4 fedora:34: clang version 12.0.1 (Fedora 12.0.1-1.fc34) fedora:latest: clang version 13.0.0 (Fedora 13.0.0-3.fc35) fedora:rawhide: clang version 13.0.0 (Fedora 13.0.0-5.fc36) opensuse/leap:15.2: clang version 9.0.1 opensuse/leap:latest: clang version 11.0.1 opensuse/tumbleweed:latest: clang version 13.0.0 ubuntu:bionic: clang version 6.0.0-1ubuntu2 (tags/RELEASE_600/final) ubuntu:latest: clang version 10.0.0-4ubuntu1 ubuntu:hirsute: Ubuntu clang version 12.0.0-3ubuntu1~21.04.2 ubuntu:rolling: Ubuntu clang version 13.0.0-2 ubuntu:devel: Ubuntu clang version 13.0.0-9 In every case, the distribution's version of clang is either older than the current minimum supported version of LLVM 10.0.1 or equal to or greater than the proposed 11.0.0 so nothing should change. Another benefit of this change is LLVM=1 works better with arm64 and x86_64 since commit |

Documentation: add minimum clang/llvm version
Based on a vote at the LLVM BoF at Plumbers 2020, we decided to start small, supporting just one formal upstream release of LLVM for now. We can probably widen the support window of supported versions over time. Also, note that LLVM's release process is different than GCC's. GCC tends to have 1 major release per year while releasing minor updates to the past 3 major versions. LLVM tends to support one major release and one minor release every six months.

It's been a busy cycle for documentation - hopefully the busiest for a
while to come. Changes include:
- Some new Chinese translations
- Progress on the battle against double words words and non-HTTPS URLs
- Some block-mq documentation
- More RST conversions from Mauro. At this point, that task is
essentially complete, so we shouldn't see this kind of churn again for a
while. Unless we decide to switch to asciidoc or something...:)
- Lots of typo fixes, warning fixes, and more.

Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: Documentation/process
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.
Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
If not .svg:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
