Networking changes for 6.17.
Core & protocols
----------------
- Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing.
- Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container).
- Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX.
- Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK.
- Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP.
- Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface.
- Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB.
- Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users.
- Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque.
- Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly once.
- Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code.
- Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel NAPI
thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread would stick
around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization.
- Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets.
- Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing.
- MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling.
- Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink.
- Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed.
- Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries.
- Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM.
- Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister netconsole's
console when all net targets are removed. Code refactoring.
Add a number of selftests.
- Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
should be used for an inbound SA lookup.
- Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS.
- Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links.
- Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch.
- Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack.
- Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer.
- Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT.
Driver API
----------
- Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink.
- Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing fields.
- Add support for power budget evaluation strategy in PSE /
Power-over-Ethernet. Generate Netlink events for overcurrent etc.
- Support DPLL phase offset monitoring across all device inputs.
Support providing clock reference and SYNC over separate DPLL
inputs.
- Support traffic classes in devlink rate API for bandwidth management.
- Remove rtnl_lock dependency from UDP tunnel port configuration.

checkpatch: check for comment explaining rgmii(|-rxid|-txid) PHY modes
Historically, the RGMII PHY modes specified in Device Trees have been used inconsistently, often referring to the usage of delays on the PHY side rather than describing the board; many drivers still implement this incorrectly. Require a comment in Devices Trees using these modes (usually mentioning that the delay is realized on the PCB), so we can avoid adding more incorrect uses (or will at least notice which drivers still need to be fixed).

Documentation: kunit: improve example on testing static functions
The documentation on testing static functions using the KUnit macros VISIBLE_IF_KUNIT and EXPORT_SYMBOL_IF_KUNIT is lacking clarity and missing key steps in the example. This has caused bugs and confusion among developers. Improve wording of description and add missing steps to the example. This entails adding the "#include <kunit/visibility.h>" line and the "MODULE_IMPORT_NS(EXPORTED_FOR_KUNIT_TESTING);" line. Both of which were missing from the original example and key to exposing static functions.

kunit: tool: Implement listing of available architectures
To implement custom scripting around kunit.py it is useful to get a list of available architectures. While it is possible to manually inspect tools/testing/kunit/qemu_configs/, this is annoying to implement and introduces a dependency on a kunit.py implementation detail. Introduce 'kunit.py run --arch help' which lists all known architectures in an easy to parse list. This is equivalent on how QEMU implements listing of possible argument values.

It has been a reasonably busy cycle for docs...
- Significant changes throughout the tree to bring Python code up to
current standards and raise the minimum Python required to 3.9. Much of
this is preparatory to replacing the ancient Perl scripts/kernel-doc
horror with a slightly less horrifying Python implementation, expected
for 6.16.
- Update the minimum Sphinx required to 3.4.3, allowing us to remove a
bunch of older compatibility code.
- Rework and improve the generation of the ABI documentation.
(All of the above done by Mauro)
- Lots of translation updates. Alex Shi and Yanteng Si are taking on
responsibility for the Chinese translations going forward; that work will
still get to you via docs-next
- Try to standardize the format for indicating a developer's affiliation in
commit tags.
- Clarify the TAB's role in CoC enforcement actions.
- Try to spell out the rules for when a commit tag can name another
developer without their explicit permission.
Plus lots of other typo fixes and updates.

Merge tag 'docs-6.15' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It has been a reasonably busy cycle for docs...
- Significant changes throughout the tree to bring Python code up to
current standards and raise the minimum Python required to 3.9
Much of this is preparatory to replacing the ancient Perl
scripts/kernel-doc horror with a slightly less horrifying Python
implementation, expected for 6.16
- Update the minimum Sphinx required to 3.4.3, allowing us to remove
a bunch of older compatibility code
- Rework and improve the generation of the ABI documentation
(All of the above done by Mauro)
- Lots of translation updates. Alex Shi and Yanteng Si are taking on
responsibility for the Chinese translations going forward; that
work will still get to you via docs-next
- Try to standardize the format for indicating a developer's
affiliation in commit tags
- Clarify the TAB's role in CoC enforcement actions
- Try to spell out the rules for when a commit tag can name another
developer without their explicit permission
Plus lots of other typo fixes and updates"

kbuild: change working directory to external module directory with M=
Currently, Kbuild always operates in the output directory of the kernel,
even when building external modules. This increases the risk of external
module Makefiles attempting to write to the kernel directory.
This commit switches the working directory to the external module
directory, allowing the removal of the $(KBUILD_EXTMOD)/ prefix from
some build artifacts.
The command for building external modules maintains backward
compatibility, but Makefiles that rely on working in the kernel
directory may break. In such cases, $(objtree) and $(srctree) should
be used to refer to the output and source directories of the kernel.
The appearance of the build log will change as follows:
[Before]
$ make -C /path/to/my/linux M=/path/to/my/externel/module
make: Entering directory '/path/to/my/linux'
CC [M] /path/to/my/externel/module/helloworld.o
MODPOST /path/to/my/externel/module/Module.symvers
CC [M] /path/to/my/externel/module/helloworld.mod.o
CC [M] /path/to/my/externel/module/.module-common.o
LD [M] /path/to/my/externel/module/helloworld.ko
make: Leaving directory '/path/to/my/linux'
[After]
$ make -C /path/to/my/linux M=/path/to/my/externel/module
make: Entering directory '/path/to/my/linux'
make[1]: Entering directory '/path/to/my/externel/module'
CC [M] helloworld.o
MODPOST Module.symvers
CC [M] helloworld.mod.o
CC [M] .module-common.o
LD [M] helloworld.ko
make[1]: Leaving directory '/path/to/my/externel/module'
make: Leaving directory '/path/to/my/linux'
Printing "Entering directory" twice is cumbersome. This will be
addressed later.

kbuild: Add Propeller configuration for kernel build
Add the build support for using Clang's Propeller optimizer. Like AutoFDO, Propeller uses hardware sampling to gather information about the frequency of execution of different code paths within a binary. This information is then used to guide the compiler's optimization decisions, resulting in a more efficient binary. The support requires a Clang compiler LLVM 19 or later, and the create_llvm_prof tool (https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1). This commit is limited to x86 platforms that support PMU features like LBR on Intel machines and AMD Zen3 BRS. Here is an example workflow for building an AutoFDO+Propeller optimized kernel: 1) Build the kernel on the host machine, with AutoFDO and Propeller build config CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=y CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG=y then $ make LLVM=1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=<autofdo_profile> “<autofdo_profile>” is the profile collected when doing a non-Propeller AutoFDO build. This step builds a kernel that has the same optimization level as AutoFDO, plus a metadata section that records basic block information. This kernel image runs as fast as an AutoFDO optimized kernel. 2) Install the kernel on test/production machines. 3) Run the load tests. The '-c' option in perf specifies the sample event period. We suggest using a suitable prime number, like 500009, for this purpose. For Intel platforms: $ perf record -e BR_INST_RETIRED.NEAR_TAKEN:k -a -N -b -c <count> \ -o <perf_file> -- <loadtest> For AMD platforms: The supported system are: Zen3 with BRS, or Zen4 with amd_lbr_v2 # To see if Zen3 support LBR: $ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep " brs" # To see if Zen4 support LBR: $ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep amd_lbr_v2 # If the result is yes, then collect the profile using: $ perf record --pfm-events RETIRED_TAKEN_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS:k -a \ -N -b -c <count> -o <perf_file> -- <loadtest> 4) (Optional) Download the raw perf file to the host machine. 5) Generate Propeller profile: $ create_llvm_prof --binary=<vmlinux> --profile=<perf_file> \ --format=propeller --propeller_output_module_name \ --out=<propeller_profile_prefix>_cc_profile.txt \ --propeller_symorder=<propeller_profile_prefix>_ld_profile.txt “create_llvm_prof” is the profile conversion tool, and a prebuilt binary for linux can be found on https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1 (can also build from source). "<propeller_profile_prefix>" can be something like "/home/user/dir/any_string". This command generates a pair of Propeller profiles: "<propeller_profile_prefix>_cc_profile.txt" and "<propeller_profile_prefix>_ld_profile.txt". 6) Rebuild the kernel using the AutoFDO and Propeller profile files. CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=y CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG=y and $ make LLVM=1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=<autofdo_profile> \ CLANG_PROPELLER_PROFILE_PREFIX=<propeller_profile_prefix> Co-developed-by: Han Shen <shenhan@google.com> Signed-off-by: Han Shen <shenhan@google.com> Signed-off-by: Rong Xu <xur@google.com> Suggested-by: Sriraman Tallam <tmsriram@google.com> Suggested-by: Krzysztof Pszeniczny <kpszeniczny@google.com> Suggested-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Tested-by: Yonghong Song <yonghong.song@linux.dev> Tested-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> |

usefulness and contained entries ("parse.*") that would actively mask
actual source change.

kbuild: Add AutoFDO support for Clang build
Add the build support for using Clang's AutoFDO. Building the kernel
with AutoFDO does not reduce the optimization level from the
compiler. AutoFDO uses hardware sampling to gather information about
the frequency of execution of different code paths within a binary.
This information is then used to guide the compiler's optimization
decisions, resulting in a more efficient binary. Experiments
showed that the kernel can improve up to 10% in latency.
The support requires a Clang compiler after LLVM 17. This submission
is limited to x86 platforms that support PMU features like LBR on
Intel machines and AMD Zen3 BRS. Support for SPE on ARM 1,
and BRBE on ARM 1 is part of planned future work.
Here is an example workflow for AutoFDO kernel:
1) Build the kernel on the host machine with LLVM enabled, for example,
$ make menuconfig LLVM=1
Turn on AutoFDO build config:
CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=y
With a configuration that has LLVM enabled, use the following
command:
scripts/config -e AUTOFDO_CLANG
After getting the config, build with
$ make LLVM=1
2) Install the kernel on the test machine.
3) Run the load tests. The '-c' option in perf specifies the sample
event period. We suggest using a suitable prime number,
like 500009, for this purpose.
For Intel platforms:
$ perf record -e BR_INST_RETIRED.NEAR_TAKEN:k -a -N -b -c <count> \
-o <perf_file> -- <loadtest>
For AMD platforms:
The supported system are: Zen3 with BRS, or Zen4 with amd_lbr_v2
For Zen3:
$ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep " brs"
For Zen4:
$ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep amd_lbr_v2
$ perf record --pfm-events RETIRED_TAKEN_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS:k -a \
-N -b -c <count> -o <perf_file> -- <loadtest>
4) (Optional) Download the raw perf file to the host machine.
5) To generate an AutoFDO profile, two offline tools are available:
create_llvm_prof and llvm_profgen. The create_llvm_prof tool is part
of the AutoFDO project and can be found on GitHub
(https://github.com/google/autofdo), version v0.30.1 or later. The
llvm_profgen tool is included in the LLVM compiler itself. It's
important to note that the version of llvm_profgen doesn't need to
match the version of Clang. It needs to be the LLVM 19 release or
later, or from the LLVM trunk.
$ llvm-profgen --kernel --binary=<vmlinux> --perfdata=<perf_file> \
-o <profile_file>
or
$ create_llvm_prof --binary=<vmlinux> --profile=<perf_file> \
--format=extbinary --out=<profile_file>
Note that multiple AutoFDO profile files can be merged into one via:
$ llvm-profdata merge -o <profile_file> <profile_1> ... <profile_n>
6) Rebuild the kernel using the AutoFDO profile file with the same config
as step 1, (Note CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG needs to be enabled):
$ make LLVM=1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=<profile_file>

The core clk framework is left largely untouched this time around except for
support for the newly ratified DT property 'assigned-clock-rates-u64'. I'm much
more excited about the support for loading DT overlays from KUnit tests so that
we can test how the clk framework parses DT nodes during clk registration. The
clk framework has some places that are highly DeviceTree dependent so this
charts the path to extend the KUnit tests to cover even more framework code in
the future. I've got some more tests on the list that use the DT overlay
support, but they uncovered issues with clk unregistration that I'm still
working on fixing.
Outside the core, the clk driver update pile is dominated by Qualcomm and
Renesas SoCs, making it fairly usual. Looking closer, there are fixes for
things all over the place, like adding missing clk frequencies or moving
defines for the number of clks out of DT binding headers into the drivers.
There are even conversions of DT bindings to YAML and migration away from
strings to describe clk topology. Overall it doesn't look unusual so I expect
the new drivers to be where we'll have fixes in the coming weeks.

ALong with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series in
this pull request are:
"Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds
consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation
functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification.
"Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes - mode
code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications.
"mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No functional
changes - code cleanups only.
"Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a little
cleanup.
"mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and
simplifications and .text shrinkage.
"Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel Butt. This
is a feature, it adds new feilds to /proc/vmstat such as
$ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
kstack_1k 3
kstack_2k 188
kstack_4k 11391
kstack_8k 243
kstack_16k 0
which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at all
used 16k. Useful for some system tuning things, but partivularly useful
for "the dynamic kernel stack project".
"kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel Tikhomirov.
Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory.
"mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin. "3
independent small optimizations of page counters".
"mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications" from David
Hildenbrand. Improves PTE/PMD splitlock detection, makes powerpc/8xx work
correctly by design rather than by accident.
"mm: remove arch_make_page_accessible()" from David Hildenbrand. Some
folio conversions which make arch_make_page_accessible() unneeded.
"mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers" fro David Finkel.
Cleans up and fixes our handling of the resetting of the cgroup/process
peak-memory-use detector.
"Make core VMA operations internal and testable" from Lorenzo Stoakes.
Rationalizaion and encapsulation of the VMA manipulation APIs. With a
view to better enable testing of the VMA functions, even from a
userspace-only harness.
"mm: zswap: fixes for global shrinker" from Takero Funaki. Fix issues in
the zswap global shrinker, resulting in improved performance.
"mm: print the promo watermark in zoneinfo" from Kaiyang Zhao. Fill in
some missing info in /proc/zoneinfo.
"mm: replace follow_page() by folio_walk" from David Hildenbrand. Code
cleanups and rationalizations (conversion to folio_walk()) resulting in
the removal of follow_page().
"improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme" from Nhat Pham. Some
tuning to improve zswap's dynamic shrinker. Significant reductions in
swapin and improvements in performance are shown.
"mm: Fix several issues with unaccepted memory" from Kirill Shutemov.
Improvements to the new unaccepted memory feature,
"mm/mprotect: Fix dax puds" from Peter Xu. Implements mprotect on DAX
PUDs. This was missing, although nobody seems to have notied yet.
"Introduce a store type enum for the Maple tree" from Sidhartha Kumar.
Cleanups and modest performance improvements for the maple tree library
code.
"memcg: further decouple v1 code from v2" from Shakeel Butt. Move more
cgroup v1 remnants away from the v2 memcg code.
"memcg: initiate deprecation of v1 features" from Shakeel Butt. Adds
various warnings telling users that memcg v1 features are deprecated.

"Simplify the page flags a little" from Matthew Wilcox. Many legacy page
flags are now folio flags, so the page-based flags and their
accessors/mutators can be removed.
"mm: store zero pages to be swapped out in a bitmap" from Usama Arif. An
optimization which permits us to avoid writing/reading zero-filled zswap
pages to backing store.

kfence: introduce burst mode
Introduce burst mode, which can be configured with kfence.burst=$count, where the burst count denotes the additional successive slab allocations to be allocated through KFENCE for each sample interval. The idea is that this can give developers an additional knob to make KFENCE more aggressive when debugging specific issues of systems where either rebooting or recompiling the kernel with KASAN is not possible. Experiment: To assess the effectiveness of the new option, we randomly picked a recent out-of-bounds [1] and use-after-free bug [2], each with a reproducer provided by syzbot, that initially detected these bugs with KASAN. We then tried to reproduce the bugs with KFENCE below. [1] Fixed by: |

clk: Add test managed clk provider/consumer APIs
Unit tests are more ergonomic and simpler to understand if they don't have to hoist a bunch of code into the test harness init and exit functions. Add some test managed wrappers for the clk APIs so that clk unit tests can write more code in the actual test and less code in the harness. Only add APIs that are used for now. More wrappers can be added in the future as necessary.

platform: Add test managed platform_device/driver APIs
Introduce KUnit resource wrappers around platform_driver_register(), platform_device_alloc(), and platform_device_add() so that test authors can register platform drivers/devices from their tests and have the drivers/devices automatically be unregistered when the test is done. This makes test setup code simpler when a platform driver or platform device is needed. Add a few test cases at the same time to make sure the APIs work as intended.

of: Add test managed wrappers for of_overlay_apply()/of_node_put()
Add test managed wrappers for of_overlay_apply() that automatically
removes the overlay when the test is finished. This API is intended for
use by KUnit tests that test code which relies on 'struct device_node's
and of_*() APIs.
KUnit tests will call of_overlay_apply_kunit() to load an overlay that's
been built into the kernel image. When the test is complete, the overlay
will be removed.
This has a few benefits:
1) It keeps the tests hermetic because the overlay is removed when the
test is complete. Tests won't even be aware that an overlay was
loaded in another test.
2) The overlay code can live right next to the unit test that loads it.
The overlay and the unit test can be compiled into one kernel module
if desired.
3) We can test different device tree configurations by loading
different overlays. The overlays can be written for a specific test,
and there can be many of them loaded per-test without needing to jam
all possible combinations into one DTB.
4) It also allows KUnit to test device tree dependent code on any
architecture, not just UML. This allows KUnit tests to test
architecture specific device tree code.
There are some potential pitfalls though. Test authors need to be
careful to not overwrite properties in the live tree. The easiest way to
do this is to add and remove nodes with a 'kunit-' prefix, almost
guaranteeing that the same node won't be present in the tree loaded at
boot.

- 875fa64577da ("mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: fix race with speculative PFN

Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch. - In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code. These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels. - Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My bad. - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to folio_alloc_mpol()" - Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series "Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of cgroup writeback" - Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index". - In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing. - Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is "Restructure va_high_addr_switch". - The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to simplify code". - Jane Chu has improved the handling of our fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection". - Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything.

By default this is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic improvements in pagefault latency are realized. - David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to fs/proc/internal.h". - David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series "mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually". - Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series "cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"". - Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers and utilize them". - Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly common circumstances.

If so, email me! - Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".

around, mostly more of the usual:
- More Spanish, Italian, and Chinese translations
- A new script, scripts/checktransupdate.py, can be used to see which
commits have touched an (English) document since a given translation was
last updated.
- A couple of "best practices" suggestions (on Link: tags and off-list
discussions) that were not entirely at consensus level, but I concluded
they were close enough to accept.
- Some nice cleanups removing documentation for kernel parameters that have

kmsan: allow disabling KMSAN checks for the current task
Like for KASAN, it's useful to temporarily disable KMSAN checks around, e.g., redzone accesses. Introduce kmsan_disable_current() and kmsan_enable_current(), which are similar to their KASAN counterparts. Make them reentrant in order to handle memory allocations in interrupt context. Repurpose the allow_reporting field for this.

kcsan: Introduce __data_racy type qualifier
This commit adds a __data_racy type qualifier that enables kernel developers to inform KCSAN that a given variable is a shared variable without needing to mark each and every access. This allows pre-KCSAN code to be correctly (if approximately) instrumented withh very little effort, and also provides people reading the code a clear indication that the variable is in fact shared. In addition, it permits incremental transition to per-access KCSAN marking, so that (for example) a given subsystem can be transitioned one variable at a time, while avoiding large numbers of KCSAN warnings during this transition. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEbK7UrM+RBIrCoViJnr8S83LZ+4wFAmY+i+cTHHBhdWxtY2tA a2VybmVsLm9yZwAKCRCevxLzctn7jJQ1D/9eOBNKefU7duZgAOzUizPdxRvxKzPx UENz6DU/xXB+jcaWiRvdWyFgIFnUS/TaZcwtthXh4bV1I754dRFy8X9+/uHd8AVY MUwRkhY3Nie/MgkvLrEmMsfWn9zSUp0Pwq4dwFdhvb0aosFSn7PgtSrE62+RafpZ k1abEUa62MfSLJjJ7C8ThYk9broAgz37drloAStAr4PvrCM4JaoeChkStaAK80z1 qq3EblLtXlzKcW1UNkvsbTxcnv+quLsI4EHKSnN3O8l47/F/k52ENz5Qp1pYTOLk kO3IZjqFqnIH6Re5eHPA05cwQssJFvsB8gfB+g+kc2uOK/z7wwg0/gqf9SZyaosw ABoaxflfNE/mTzKVgob3wqGyhlsAE/R2k02yoMad4X78ATOi9RpjdH6xC4OOXYfV 4P8g2hGAHNR8UgYosXFx+YCu2ktGYyfsqTicMaaaECUfxFeJjJ1QqgwHYHADDDv/ x8UxggAco1jul+6fikPGnjDgBN5IJOwS26NEUguqAFqYMTF8OO/x6ag6cqG5nk3a b41GF4HEfoQtJduuOv8jVntyTRU7zbpH+AVuinQ1V34kpYp5fE75p30P4UUjMegA JaAoOeD9aebEUHHlujomaV/QKSHobYLmYp/ARe2QZjp7aiELcjvV/ThOdwRxGEZg Zl4qRaGc9YO/Ag== =f1gr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'kcsan.2024.05.10a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu Pull kcsan update from Paul McKenney: "Introduce __data_racy type qualifier This adds a __data_racy type qualifier that enables kernel developers to inform KCSAN that a given variable is a shared variable without needing to mark each and every access.

scripts: checkpatch: check unused parameters for function-like macro
If function-like macros do not utilize a parameter, it might result in a
build warning. In our coding style guidelines, we advocate for utilizing
static inline functions to replace such macros. This patch verifies
compliance with the new rule.
For a macro such as the one below,
#define test(a) do { } while (0)
The test result is as follows.
WARNING: Argument 'a' is not used in function-like macro
#21: FILE: mm/init-mm.c:20:
+#define test(a) do { } while (0)
total: 0 errors, 1 warnings, 8 lines checked

kcsan, compiler_types: Introduce __data_racy type qualifier
Based on the discussion at [1], it would be helpful to mark certain
variables as explicitly "data racy", which would result in KCSAN not
reporting data races involving any accesses on such variables. To do
that, introduce the __data_racy type qualifier:
struct foo {
...
int __data_racy bar;
...
};
In KCSAN-kernels, __data_racy turns into volatile, which KCSAN already
treats specially by considering them "marked". In non-KCSAN kernels the
type qualifier turns into no-op.
The generated code between KCSAN-instrumented kernels and non-KCSAN
kernels is already huge (inserted calls into runtime for every memory
access), so the extra generated code (if any) due to volatile for few
such __data_racy variables are unlikely to have measurable impact on
performance.
