Pull SPDX updates from Greg KH:
"Here is a "big" set of SPDX-like patches for 7.2-rc1. It is the
addition of the ability for the kernel build process to generate a
Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) in the SPDX format, that matches up
exactly with just the files that are actually built for the specific
kernel image generated.
To generate a sbom, after the kernel has been built, just do:
make sbom
and marvel at the JSON file that is generated...
This is needed by users for environments in which a SBOM is required
(medical, automotive, anything shipped in the EU, etc.) and cuts down
by a massive size the "naive" SBOM solution that many vendors have
done by just including _all_ of the kernel files in the resulting
document.
This result is still a giant JSON file, that I am told parses
properly, so we just have to trust that it is properly inclusive as
attempting to parse that thing by hand is impossible.
The scripts here are self-contained python scripts, no additional
libraries or tools to create the SBOM are needed, which is important
for many build systems. Overall it's just a bit over 4000 lines of
"simple" python code, the most complex part is the regex matching
lines, but those are nothing compared to what we maintain in
scripts/checkpatch.pl today...
The various parts where the tool touches the kbuild subsystem have
been acked by the kbuild maintainer, so all should be good here.
All of these patches have been in linux-next for weeks with no
reported problems"

Due to a rustc bug, the -Cforce-frame-pointers=y flag only emits the
frame-pointer annotation for functions, but not for the module. This
means that functions generated by the LLVM backend such as
'asan.module_ctor' do not receive the frame-pointer annotation.
This is likely to lead to broken backtraces and may also cause issues
with ftrace if these features are used with functions generated by the
LLVM backend.
Thus, use -Zllvm_module_flag to work around this rustc bug if using a
rustc without the fix.

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"This one is big due to the vendoring of the `zerocopy` library, which
allows us to replace a bunch of `unsafe` code dealing with conversions
between byte sequences and other types with safe alternatives. More
details on that below (and in its merge commit).
Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Introduce support for the 'zerocopy' library [1][2]:
Fast, safe, compile error. Pick two.
Zerocopy makes zero-cost memory manipulation effortless. We write
`unsafe` so you don't have to.
It essentially provides derivable traits (e.g. 'FromBytes') and
macros (e.g. 'transmute!') for safely converting between byte
sequences and other types. Having such support allows us to remove
some 'unsafe' code.
It is among the most downloaded Rust crates and it is also used by
the Rust compiler itself.
It is licensed under "BSD-2-Clause OR Apache-2.0 OR MIT".
The crates are imported essentially as-is (only +2/-3 lines needed
to be adapted), plus SPDX identifiers. Upstream has since added the
SPDX identifiers as well as one of the tweaks at my request, thus
reducing our future diffs on updates -- I keep the details in one
of our usual live lists [3].
In total, it is about ~39k lines added, ~32k without counting
'benches/' which are just for documentation purposes.
The series includes a few Kbuild and rust-analyzer improvements and
an example patch using it in Nova, removing one 'unsafe impl'.
I checked that the codegen of an isolated example function (similar
to the Nova patch on top) is essentially identical. It also turns
out that (for that particular case) the 'zerocopy' version, even
with 'debug-assertions' enabled, has no remaining panics, unlike a
few in the current code (since the compiler can prove the remaining
'ub_checks' statically).
So their "fast, safe" does indeed check out -- at least in that
case.
- Support AutoFDO. This allows Rust code to be profiled and optimized
based on the profile. Tested with Rust Binder: ~13% slower without
AutoFDO in the binderAddInts benchmark (using an app-launch
benchmark for the profile).
- Support Software Tag-Based KASAN.
In addition, fix KASAN Kconfig by requiring Clang.
- Add Kconfig options for each existing Rust KUnit test suite, such
as 'CONFIG_RUST_BITMAP_KUNIT_TEST'.
They are placed within a new menu, 'CONFIG_RUST_KUNIT_TESTS', in
the new 'rust/kernel/Kconfig.test' file.
- Support the upcoming Rust 1.98.0 release (expected 2026-08-20):
lint cleanups and an unstable flag rename.
- Disable 'rustdoc' documentation inlining for all prelude items,
which bloats the generated documentation.
- Ignore (in Git) and clean (in Kbuild) the (rarely) 'rustc'-generated
'*.long-type-*.txt' files.
'kernel' crate:
- Add new 'bitfield' module with the 'bitfield!' macro (extracted
from the existing 'register!' one), which declares integer types
that are split into distinct bit fields of arbitrary length.
Each field is a 'Bounded' of the appropriate bit width (ensuring
values are properly validated and avoiding implicit data loss) and
gets several generated getters and setters (infallible, 'const' and
fallible) as well as associated constants ('_MASK', '_SHIFT' and
'_RANGE'). It also supports fields that can be converted from/to
custom types, either fallibly ('?=>') or infallibly ('=>').
For instance:
bitfield! {
struct Rgb(u16) {
15:11 blue;
10:5 green;
4:0 red;
}
}
// Compile-time checks.
let color = Rgb::zeroed().with_const_green::<0x1f>();
assert_eq!(color.green(), 0x1f);
assert_eq!(color.into_raw(), 0x1f << Rgb::GREEN_SHIFT);
Add as well documentation and a test suite for it, as usual; and
update the 'register!' macro to use it.
It will be maintained by Alexandre Courbot (with Yury Norov as
reviewer) under a new 'MAINTAINERS' entry: 'RUST [BITFIELD]'.
- 'ptr' module: rework index projection syntax into keyworded syntax
and introduce panicking variant.
The keyword syntax ('build:', 'try:', 'panic:') is more explicit
and paves the way of perhaps adding more flavors in the future,
e.g. an 'unsafe' index projection.
For instance, projections now look like this:
fn f(p: *const [u8; 32]) -> Result {
// Ok, within bounds, checked at build time.
project!(p, [build: 1]);
// Build error.
project!(p, [build: 128]);
// `OutOfBound` runtime error (convertible to `ERANGE`).
project!(p, [try: 128]);
// Runtime panic.
project!(p, [panic: 128]);
Ok(())
}
Update as well the users, which now look like e.g.
// Pointer to the first entry of the GSP message queue.
let data = project!(self.0.as_ptr(), .gspq.msgq.data[build: 0]);
- 'build_assert' module: make the module the home of its macros
instead of rendering them twice.
- 'sync' module: add 'UniqueArc::as_ptr()' associated function.
- 'alloc' module:
- Fix the 'Vec::reserve()' doctest to properly account for the
existing vector length in the capacity assertion.
- Fix an incorrect operator in the 'Vec::extend_with()' 'SAFETY'
comment; add a doc test demonstrating basic usage and the
zero-length case.
- Clean imports across several modules to follow the "kernel
vertical" import style in order to minimize conflicts.
'pin-init' crate:
- User visible changes:
- Do not generate 'non_snake_case' warnings for identifiers that
are syntactically just users of a field name. This would allow
all '#[allow(non_snake_case)]' in nova-core to be removed,
which Gary will send to the nova tree next cycle.
- Filter non-cfg attributes out properly in derived structs. This
improves pin-init compatibility with other derive macros.
- Insert projection types' where clause properly.
- Other changes:
- Bump MSRV to 1.82, plus associated cleanups.
- Overhaul how init slots are projected. The new approach is
easier to justify with safety comments.
- Mark more functions as inline, which should help mitigate the
super-long symbol name issue due to lack of inlining.
rust-analyzer:
- Support '--envs' for passing env vars for crates like 'zerocopy'.
'MAINTAINERS':
- Add the following reviewers to the 'RUST' entry:
- Daniel Almeida
- Tamir Duberstein
- Alexandre Courbot
- Onur Özkan
They have been involved in the Rust for Linux project for about 7
collective years and bring expertise across several domains, which
will be very useful to have around in the future.
Thanks everyone for stepping up!

Currently, host programs are linked with HOSTCC using the toolchain's
default linker. This can result in confusing behavior when using the
LLVM Kbuild variable (which states that the user would like to build
with the LLVM toolchain instead of the GNU one), as clang's default
linker is ld for most platforms, not ld.lld. The documentation mentions
HOSTLD=ld.lld is set but this variable is not used by Kbuild proper,
only within some tools/ projects. Kbuild provides the HOSTLDFLAGS
variable, which allow users to provide the '-fuse-ld' or '--ld-path'
flags to customize what linker is used, but this is not super obvious to
folks not familiar with Kbuild.
If the user has not customized the linker already using one of these
flags, default to ld.lld when using the LLVM variable, which is more in
line with user expectations when using that variable.

The exclusion file lists one symbol per line; blank lines and lines
starting with '#' are ignored.
The checker also warns about uppercase N/Y/M used as tristate literal
values following the same logic as checkpatch.
This new static checker is the script used for [1] with a few
improvements to avoid some false positives.

When rustc prints an error containing a long type that doesn't fit
in a line, it will write the whole thing in a .txt file -- see commit

details.
These files are purely compiler artifacts and are not created

Add distributed ThinLTO build support for the Linux kernel.
This new mode offers several advantages: (1) Increased
flexibility in handling user-specified build options.
(2) Improved user-friendliness for developers. (3) Greater
convenience for integrating with objtool and livepatch.
Note that "distributed" in this context refers to a term
that differentiates in-process ThinLTO builds by invoking
backend compilation through the linker, not necessarily
building in distributed environments.
Distributed ThinLTO is enabled via the
`CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN_DIST` Kconfig option. For example:
> make LLVM=1 defconfig
> scripts/config -e LTO_CLANG_THIN_DIST
> make LLVM=1 oldconfig
> make LLVM=1 vmlinux -j <..>
The build flow proceeds in four stages:

GCC's GCOV instrumentation can merge global branch counters with loop
induction variables as an optimization. In inflate_fast(), the inner copy
loops get transformed so that the GCOV counter value is loaded multiple
times to compute the loop base address, start index, and end bound. Since
GCOV counters are global (not per-CPU), concurrent execution on different
CPUs causes the counter to change between loads, producing inconsistent
values and out-of-bounds memory writes.
The crash manifests during IPComp (IP Payload Compression) processing when
inflate_fast() runs concurrently on multiple CPUs:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffd0a3c0902ffa
RIP: inflate_fast+1431
Call Trace:
zlib_inflate
__deflate_decompress
crypto_comp_decompress
ipcomp_decompress [xfrm_ipcomp]
ipcomp_input [xfrm_ipcomp]
xfrm_input
At the crash point, the compiler generated three loads from the same
global GCOV counter (__gcov0.inflate_fast+216) to compute base, start, and
end for an indexed loop. Another CPU modified the counter between loads,
making the values inconsistent - the write went 3.4 MB past a 65 KB
buffer.
Add -fprofile-update=prefer-atomic to CFLAGS_GCOV at the global level in
the top-level Makefile, guarded by a try-run compile test. The test
compiles a minimal program with and without -fprofile-update=prefer-atomic
using the full KBUILD_CFLAGS, then compares undefined symbols in the
resulting object files. If prefer-atomic introduces new undefined
references (such as __atomic_fetch_add_8 on i386 or __aarch64_ldadd8_relax
on arm64 with outline-atomics), the flag is not added -- the kernel does
not link against libatomic.
On architectures where GCC inlines 64-bit atomic counter updates (x86_64,
s390, ...) the test passes and the flag is enabled, preventing the
compiler from merging counters with loop induction variables and fixing
the observed concurrent-access crash.
On architectures where the flag would introduce libatomic dependencies, it
is silently omitted and behaviour is no worse than before this patch.
Move the CFLAGS_GCOV block from its original position (before the arch
Makefile include) to after the core KBUILD_CFLAGS assignments but before
the scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins include. This placement ensures the
try-run test sees arch-specific flags (-m32, -march=,
-mno-outline-atomics) while avoiding GCC plugin flags (-fplugin=) that
would break the test on clean builds when plugin shared objects do not yet
exist.

The Makefile version of rustc-option currently checks whether the option
exists for the host target instead of the target actually being compiled
for. It was done this way in commit 46e24a545c ("rust: kasan/kbuild:
fix missing flags on first build") to avoid a circular dependency on
target.json. However, because of this, rustc-option currently does not
function when cross-compiling from x86_64 to aarch64 if
CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK is enabled. This is because KBUILD_RUSTFLAGS
contains -Zfixed-x18 under this configuration. Since that flag does not
exist on the host target, rustc-option runs into a compilation failure
every time, leading to all flags being rejected as unsupported.
To fix this, update rustc-option to pass a --target parameter so that
the host target is not used. For targets using target.json, use a
built-in target that is as close as possible to the target created with
target.json to avoid the circular dependency on target.json.
One scenario where this causes a boot failure:
* Cross-compiled from x86_64 to aarch64.
* With CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK=y
* With CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS=y
* With CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=n
Then the resulting kernel image will fail to boot when it first calls
into Rust code with a crash along the lines of "Unable to handle kernel
paging request at virtual address 0ffffffc08541796". This is because the
call threshold is not specified, so rustc will inline kasan operations,
but the kasan shadow offset is not specified, which leads to the inlined
kasan instructions being incorrect.
Note that the -Zsanitizer=kernel-hwaddress parameter itself does not
lead to a rustc-option failure despite being aarch64-specific because
RUSTFLAGS_KASAN has not yet been added to KBUILD_RUSTFLAGS when
rustc-option is evaluated by the kasan Makefile.

Rework the general infrastructure around RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES into more
flexible KMALLOC_PARTITION_CACHES, with the former being a partitioning
mode of the latter.
Introduce a new mode, KMALLOC_PARTITION_TYPED, which leverages a feature
available in Clang 22 and later, called "allocation tokens" via
__builtin_infer_alloc_token() [1]. Unlike KMALLOC_PARTITION_RANDOM
(formerly RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES), this mode deterministically assigns a
slab cache to an allocation of type T, regardless of allocation site.
The builtin __builtin_infer_alloc_token(<malloc-args>, ...) instructs
the compiler to infer an allocation type from arguments commonly passed
to memory-allocating functions and returns a type-derived token ID. The
implementation passes kmalloc-args to the builtin: the compiler performs
best-effort type inference, and then recognizes common patterns such as
`kmalloc(sizeof(T), ...)`, `kmalloc(sizeof(T) * n, ...)`, but also
`(T *)kmalloc(...)`. Where the compiler fails to infer a type the
fallback token (default: 0) is chosen.
Note: kmalloc_obj(..) APIs fix the pattern how size and result type are
expressed, and therefore ensures there's not much drift in which
patterns the compiler needs to recognize. Specifically, kmalloc_obj()
and friends expand to `(TYPE *)KMALLOC(__obj_size, GFP)`, which the
compiler recognizes via the cast to TYPE*.
Clang's default token ID calculation is described as [1]:
typehashpointersplit: This mode assigns a token ID based on the hash
of the allocated type's name, where the top half ID-space is reserved
for types that contain pointers and the bottom half for types that do
not contain pointers.
Separating pointer-containing objects from pointerless objects and data
allocations can help mitigate certain classes of memory corruption
exploits [2]: attackers who gains a buffer overflow on a primitive
buffer cannot use it to directly corrupt pointers or other critical
metadata in an object residing in a different, isolated heap region.
It is important to note that heap isolation strategies offer a
best-effort approach, and do not provide a 100% security guarantee,
albeit achievable at relatively low performance cost. Note that this
also does not prevent cross-cache attacks: while waiting for future
features like SLAB_VIRTUAL [3] to provide physical page isolation, this
feature should be deployed alongside SHUFFLE_PAGE_ALLOCATOR and
init_on_free=1 to mitigate cross-cache attacks and page-reuse attacks as
much as possible today.
With all that, my kernel (x86 defconfig) shows me a histogram of slab
cache object distribution per /proc/slabinfo (after boot):
<slab cache> <objs> <hist>
kmalloc-part-15 1465 ++++++++++++++
kmalloc-part-14 2988 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
kmalloc-part-13 1656 ++++++++++++++++
kmalloc-part-12 1045 ++++++++++
kmalloc-part-11 1697 ++++++++++++++++
kmalloc-part-10 1489 ++++++++++++++
kmalloc-part-09 965 +++++++++
kmalloc-part-08 710 +++++++
kmalloc-part-07 100 +
kmalloc-part-06 217 ++
kmalloc-part-05 105 +
kmalloc-part-04 4047 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
kmalloc-part-03 183 +
kmalloc-part-02 283 ++
kmalloc-part-01 316 +++
kmalloc 1422 ++++++++++++++
The above /proc/slabinfo snapshot shows me there are 6673 allocated
objects (slabs 00 - 07) that the compiler claims contain no pointers or
it was unable to infer the type of, and 12015 objects that contain
pointers (slabs 08 - 15). On a whole, this looks relatively sane.
Additionally, when I compile my kernel with -Rpass=alloc-token, which
provides diagnostics where (after dead-code elimination) type inference
failed, I see 186 allocation sites where the compiler failed to identify
a type (down from 966 when I sent the RFC [4]). Some initial review
confirms these are mostly variable sized buffers, but also include
structs with trailing flexible length arrays.

The fixdep hostprog may be built multiple times during a single build.
Once during the configuration phase and later during the regular phase.
As only the regular build phase respects CONFIG_WERROR / W=e, the
compiler flags might change between the phases, leading to rebuilds.
Example, the rebuilds will happen twice on each invocation of the build:
$ make allyesconfig prepare

# No change to .config
#

scripts/Makefile.warn is evaluated to stop CONFIG_WERROR / W=e

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Bump the minimum Rust version to 1.85.0 (and 'bindgen' to 0.71.1).
As proposed in LPC 2025 and the Maintainers Summit [1], we are
going to follow Debian Stable's Rust versions as our minimum
versions.
Debian Trixie was released on 2025-08-09 with a Rust 1.85.0 and
'bindgen' 0.71.1 toolchain, which is a fair amount of time for e.g.
kernel developers to upgrade.
Other major distributions support a Rust version that is high
enough as well, including:
+ Arch Linux.
+ Fedora Linux.
+ Gentoo Linux.
+ Nix.
+ openSUSE Slowroll and openSUSE Tumbleweed.
+ Ubuntu 25.10 and 26.04 LTS. In addition, 24.04 LTS using
their versioned packages.
The merged patch series comes with the associated cleanups and
simplifications treewide that can be performed thanks to both
bumps, as well as documentation updates.
In addition, start using 'bindgen''s '--with-attribute-custom-enum'
feature to set the 'cfi_encoding' attribute for the 'lru_status'
enum used in Binder.
Link: https://lwn.net/Articles/1050174/ [1]
- Add experimental Kconfig option ('CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS') that
inlines C helpers into Rust.
Essentially, it performs a step similar to LTO, but just for the
helpers, i.e. very local and fast.
It relies on 'llvm-link' and its '--internalize' flag, and requires
a compatible LLVM between Clang and 'rustc' (i.e. same major
version, 'CONFIG_RUSTC_CLANG_LLVM_COMPATIBLE'). It is only enabled
for two architectures for now.
The result is a measurable speedup in different workloads that
different users have tested. For instance, for the null block
driver, it amounts to a 2%.
- Support global per-version flags.
While we already have per-version flags in many places, we didn't
have a place to set global ones that depend on the compiler
version, i.e. in 'rust_common_flags', which sometimes is needed to
e.g. tweak the lints set per version.
Use that to allow the 'clippy::precedence' lint for Rust < 1.86.0,
since it had a change in behavior.
- Support overriding the crate name and apply it to Rust Binder,
which wanted the module to be called 'rust_binder'.
- Add the remaining '__rust_helper' annotations (started in the
previous cycle).
'kernel' crate:
- Introduce the 'const_assert!' macro: a more powerful version of
'static_assert!' that can refer to generics inside functions or
implementation bodies, e.g.:
fn f<const N: usize>() {
const_assert!(N > 1);
}
fn g<T>() {
const_assert!(size_of::<T>() > 0, "T cannot be ZST");
}
In addition, reorganize our set of build-time assertion macros
('{build,const,static_assert}!') to live in the 'build_assert'
module.
Finally, improve the docs as well to clarify how these are
different from one another and how to pick the right one to use,
and their equivalence (if any) to the existing C ones for extra
clarity.
- 'sizes' module: add 'SizeConstants' trait.
This gives us typed 'SZ_*' constants (avoiding casts) for use in
device address spaces where the address width depends on the
hardware (e.g. 32-bit MMIO windows, 64-bit GPU framebuffers, etc.),
e.g.:
let gpu_heap = 14 * u64::SZ_1M;
let mmio_window = u32::SZ_16M;
- 'clk' module: implement 'Send' and 'Sync' for 'Clk' and thus
simplify the users in Tyr and PWM.
- 'ptr' module: add 'const_align_up'.
- 'str' module: improve the documentation of the 'c_str!' macro to
explain that one should only use it for non-literal cases (for the
other case we instead use C string literals, e.g. 'c"abc"').
- Disallow the use of 'CStr::{as_ptr,from_ptr}' and clean one such
use in the 'task' module.
- 'sync' module: finish the move of 'ARef' and 'AlwaysRefCounted'
outside of the 'types' module, i.e. update the last remaining
instances and finally remove the re-exports.
- 'error' module: clarify that 'from_err_ptr' can return 'Ok(NULL)',
including runtime-tested examples.
The intention is to hopefully prevent UB that assumes the result of
the function is not 'NULL' if successful. This originated from a
case of UB I noticed in 'regulator' that created a 'NonNull' on it.
Timekeeping:
- Expand the example section in the 'HrTimer' documentation.
- Mark the 'ClockSource' trait as unsafe to ensure valid values for
'ktime_get()'.
- Add 'Delta::from_nanos()'.
'pin-init' crate:
- Replace the 'Zeroable' impls for 'Option<NonZero*>' with impls of
'ZeroableOption' for 'NonZero*'.
- Improve feature gate handling for unstable features.
- Declutter the documentation of implementations of 'Zeroable' for
tuples.
- Replace uses of 'addr_of[_mut]!' with '&raw [mut]'.
rust-analyzer:
- Add type annotations to 'generate_rust_analyzer.py'.
- Add support for scripts written in Rust ('generate_rust_target.rs',
'rustdoc_test_builder.rs', 'rustdoc_test_gen.rs').
- Refactor 'generate_rust_analyzer.py' to explicitly identify host
and target crates, improve readability, and reduce duplication.

This is a back merge since the pull request has a newer base -- we will
avoid that in the future.

The Clippy `precedence` lint was extended in Rust 1.85.0 to include
bitmasking and shift operations [1]. However, because it generated
many hits, in Rust 1.86.0 it was split into a new `precedence_bits`
lint which is not enabled by default [2].
In other words, only Rust 1.85 has a different behavior. For instance,
it reports:

While so far we try our best to keep all versions Clippy-clean, the
minimum (which is now Rust 1.85.0 after the bump) and the latest stable
are the most important ones; and this may be considered a "false positive"
with respect to the behavior in other versions.
Thus allow this lint for this version using the per-version flags
mechanism introduced in the previous commit.

`clippy::incompatible_msrv` is not buying us much, and we discussed
allowing it several times in the past.
For instance, there was recently another patch sent to `allow` it where
needed [1]. While that particular case would not be needed after the
minimum version bump to 1.85.0, it is simpler to just allow it to prevent
future instances.
[ In addition, the lint fired without taking into account the features
that have been enabled in a crate [2]. While this was improved in Rust
1.90.0 [3], it would still fire in a case like this patch. ]
Thus do so, and remove the last instance of locally allowing it we have
in the tree (except the one in the vendored `proc_macro2` crate).
Note that we still keep the `msrv` config option in `clippy.toml` since
that affects other lints as well.
