Merge tag 'rust-7.2' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ojeda/linux
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!
And some other fixes, cleanups and improvements"

modpost: Add __llvm_covfun and __llvm_covmap to section_white_list
Modpost emits hundreds of warnings when using Clang to build for ARCH=um
and CONFIG_GCOV=y. e.g.:
vmlinux (__llvm_covfun): unexpected non-allocatable section.
Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file?
Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains
section definitions for use in .S files.
For example, when we use LLVM for a kunit user mode build with coverage:
python3 tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py build --make_options LLVM=1 \
--kunitconfig=tools/testing/kunit/configs/default.config \
--kunitconfig=tools/testing/kunit/configs/coverage_uml.config
The behaviour occurs when building the kernel for ARCH=um with code
coverage enabled. The warnings come from modpost's check_sec_ref
function, which ensures no sections reference others that will be
discarded. covfun and covmap sections must reference __init and __exit
sections to collect coverage data, triggering the modpost warning.
To suppress these warnings, these section names have been added to
modpost's whitelist. This is unlikely to suppress legitimate warnings as
Clang will only insert these sections when building with coverage, and
can be assumed to manage these references safely.

kconfig: Fix repeated include selftest expectation
The err_repeated_inc test was added with an expected stderr fixture
that does not match the diagnostic printed by kconfig.
Running "make testconfig" currently fails in that test even though the
parser reports the duplicated include correctly:
[stderr]
Kconfig.inc1:4: error: repeated inclusion of Kconfig.inc3
Kconfig.inc2:3: note: location of first inclusion of Kconfig.inc3
The fixture expects "Repeated" and "Location" with capital letters, but
the diagnostic emitted by scripts/kconfig/util.c uses lowercase words.
Update the fixture to match the real message.

kconfig: add kconfig-sym-check static checker
Add 'make kconfig-sym-check', a static checker that finds Kconfig symbols referenced in expressions (select, depends on, default, etc.) but never defined via config/menuconfig anywhere in the tree. New dangling symbols are reported as errors (exit 1) unless they are listed in an exclusion file, e.g. KCONFIG_SYM_CHECK_EXCLUDES=sym-check-excludes make kconfig-sym-check 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.

rust: x86: support Rust >= 1.98.0 target spec
Starting with Rust 1.98.0 (expected 2026-08-20), the target spec will not

which is an alias. Otherwise, one gets:

Thus conditionally use one or the other depending on the version.
The alias has existed since Rust 1.95.0 (released 2026-04-16) [2], but
use the newer version instead to avoid changing how the build works for
existing compilers, at least until more testing takes place.

kbuild: distributed build support for Clang ThinLTO
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:
1. Perform FE compilation, mirroring the in-process ThinLTO mode.
2. Thin-link the generated IR files and object files.
3. Find all IR files and perform BE compilation, using the flags
stored in the .*.o.cmd files.
4. Link the BE results to generate the final vmlinux.o.
NOTE: This patch currently implements the build for the main kernel
image (vmlinux) only. Kernel module support is planned for a
subsequent patch.
Tested on the following arch: x86, arm64, loongarch, and
riscv.

scripts: modpost: detect and report truncated buf_printf() output
buf_printf() uses a fixed-size stack buffer. vsnprintf() returns the number of bytes that *would* have been written to that buffer, which can be larger than the size of said buffer if the formatted string is too long. The problem is that whenever this happens buf_printf() currently passes this length, unchecked, to buf_write(), which silently reads past the stack buffer and copies invalid data into the output buffer. Fix this by detecting vsnprintf() failures and truncations before appending to the output buffer, and report a fatal error instead of producing corrupt symbol names.

run-clang-tools: run multiprocessing.Pool as context manager
`multiprocessing.pool.Pool()` should be used as a context manager so Python can free its internal resources and do a proper cleanup.[1] While at it move the code to read the `compiler_commands.json` so the opened file can be closed before the sub-processes are fork()ed.

kbuild: Bump minimum version of LLVM for building the kernel to 17.0.1
The current minimum version of LLVM for building the kernel is 15.0.0. However, there are two deficiencies compared to GCC that were fixed in LLVM 17 that are starting to become more noticeable. The first was a bug in LLVM's scope checker [1], where all labels in a function were validated as potential targets of an asm goto statement, even if they were not listed in the asm goto statement as targets. This becomes particularly problematic when the cleanup attribute is used, as asm goto(... : label_a); ... label_a: ... int var __free(foo); asm goto(... : label_b); ... label_b: ... will trigger an error since the scope checker will complain that the cleanup variable would be skipped when jumping from the first asm goto to label_b (which obviously cannot happen). This issue was the catalyst for commit |

rust: kasan: add support for Software Tag-Based KASAN
This adds support for Software Tag-Based KASAN (KASAN_SW_TAGS) when CONFIG_RUST is enabled. This requires that rustc includes support for the kernel-hwaddress sanitizer, which is available since 1.96.0 [1]. Unlike with clang, we need to pass -Zsanitizer-recover in addition to -Zsanitizer because the option is not implied automatically. The kasan makefile uses different names for the flags depending on whether CC is clang or gcc, but as we require that CC is clang when using KASAN, we do not need to try to handle mixed gcc/llvm builds when Rust is enabled.

kbuild: rust: add AutoFDO support
This patch enables AutoFDO build support for Rust code within the Linux kernel. This allows Rust code to be profiled and optimized based on the profile. The RUSTFLAGS variable was suffixed with *_AUTOFDO_CLANG to match the naming of the config option, which is called CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG. This implementation has been verified in Android, first by inspecting the object files and confirming that they look correct. After that, it was verified as below: 1. Running the binderAddInts benchmark [1] with Rust Binder built as rust_binder.ko module, using a Pixel 9 Pro. 2. Collecting a profile on a Pixel 10 Pro XL using the app-launch benchmark, which starts different apps many times, on a device with Rust Binder as a built-in kernel module. (C Binder was not present on the device.) 3. Using the collected profile, run the binderAddInts benchmark again with Rust Binder built both as a rust_binder.ko module, and as a built-in kernel module. 4. In both cases, Rust Binder without AutoFDO was approximately 13% slower than the AutoFDO optimized version. Built-in vs .ko did not make a measurable performance difference. All of the above was verified in conjunction with my helpers inlining series [2], which confirmed that this worked correctly for helpers too once [3] was fixed in the helpers inlining series.

checkpatch: Undeprecate rcu_read_lock_trace() and rcu_read_unlock_trace()
It turns out that there are BPF use cases that rely on nesting RCU Tasks Trace readers. These use cases are well-served by the old rcu_read_lock_trace() and rcu_read_unlock_trace() functions that maintain a nesting counter in the task_struct structure. But these use cases incur a performance penalty when using the shiny new rcu_read_lock_tasks_trace() and rcu_read_unlock_tasks_trace() functions, which nest in the same way that SRCU does. This means that rcu_read_lock_trace() and rcu_read_unlock_trace() will be with us for some time. Therefore, remove the checkpatch.pl deprecation. Also, the rcu_read_lock_tasks_trace() and rcu_read_unlock_tasks_trace() functions are intended for use only by BPF. Therefore, add them to the list of functions that checkpatch complains about outside of BPF (and of course, RCU). Reported-by: Puranjay Mohan <puranjay@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

kbuild: pacman-pkg: make "rc" releases adhere to pacman versioning scheme
The package versioning scheme does not enable smooth upgrades from "rc"
releases to the corresponding stable releases (e.g. 7.0.0-rc7 -> 7.0.0)
because pacman considers that a downgrade due to the underscore in
pkgver (e.g. 7.0.0_rc7), see e.g. vercmp(8) for an explanation of the
package version comparison used by pacman. Package versions which are
derived from said releases (e.g. built from git revisions) are
similarly affected. Fix this by modifying pkgver in order to remove the
hyphen from kernel versions containing "-rcN", where N is a
non-negative integer.

modpost: prevent stack buffer overflow in do_input_entry() and do_dmi_entry()
Several functions in scripts/mod/file2alias.c build the module alias
string by repeatedly appending into a fixed-size on-stack buffer:
char alias[256] = {};
...
sprintf(alias + strlen(alias), "%X,*", i);
This pattern is unbounded and silently corrupts the stack when the
formatted output exceeds the destination size. Two functions in this
file are realistically reachable with input that overflows their
buffer:
1. do_input_entry() appends across nine bitmap classes
(evbit/keybit/relbit/absbit/mscbit/ledbit/sndbit/ffbit/swbit). The
keybit case alone scans bits from INPUT_DEVICE_ID_KEY_MIN_INTERESTING
(0x71) to INPUT_DEVICE_ID_KEY_MAX (0x2ff), 655 iterations; if a
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(input, ...) populates keybit[] densely, the
emission reaches ~3132 bytes — overflowing the 256-byte buffer by
about 12x. include/linux/mod_devicetable.h declares storage for the
full bit range ("keybit[INPUT_DEVICE_ID_KEY_MAX / BITS_PER_LONG + 1]"),
so the worst case is reachable per the ABI.
2. do_dmi_entry() emits one ":<prefix>*<filtered_substr>*" segment per
matched DMI field, up to 4 matches per dmi_system_id. Each substr
is sized as char[79] in struct dmi_strmatch (mod_devicetable.h:584),
and dmi_ascii_filter() copies it verbatim into the alias buffer
without bounds. Worst case: 4 × (1 + 3 + 1 + 79 + 1) = 336 bytes
into alias[256], an 80-byte overflow.
No driver in the current tree triggers either case — every in-tree
INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_KEYBIT user populates keybit[] very sparsely
(1-3 bits), and no in-tree dmi_system_id has four maximally-long
matches. The concern is defense-in-depth: both unbounded sprintf
chains are silent stack-corruption primitives in a host build tool,
and the buffer sizes have not been revisited since the corresponding
code was first introduced.
The other do_*_entry() handlers in this file (do_usb_entry,
do_cpu_entry, do_typec_entry, ...) were audited and are bounded by
their input field sizes (uint16 IDs, fixed-length keys); their alias
buffers do not need this treatment.
Reproduced under AddressSanitizer with a stand-alone harness mirroring
do_input on a fully-populated keybit:
==18319==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: stack-buffer-overflow
WRITE of size 2 at offset 288 in frame [32, 288) 'alias'
#6 do_input poc.c:44
Stack-canary build:
Abort trap: 6 (strlen(alias)=3134, cap was 256-1)
Add a small alias_append() helper around vsnprintf with a remaining-
space check and call fatal() on overflow, matching the modpost style
for unrecoverable build conditions. do_input() takes the buffer size
as a new parameter; do_input_entry() and do_dmi_entry() pass
sizeof(alias) at every call site. dmi_ascii_filter() takes the
remaining buffer size as well and aborts on truncation. This bounds
every write into the on-stack buffers and turns the latent overflow
into a clean build error if it is ever reached.

kconfig: fix potential NULL pointer dereference in conf_askvalue
In conf_askvalue(), the 'def' argument (retrieved via sym_get_string_value)
can be NULL. While current call sites ensure that 'def' is valid,
calling printf("%s\n", def) is technically undefined behavior and could
lead to a segmentation fault on certain libc implementations if the
function were called with a NULL pointer in the future.
Improve the robustness of conf_askvalue() by providing an empty string
as a fallback.
Additionally, remove the redundant re-initialization of the 'line'
buffer inside the !sym_is_changeable(sym) block, as it is already
properly initialized at the function entry.

and not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations
sitting in include/asm-generic and the arch implementations
sitting in an asm/ header in theory. The latter doesn't work for
many cases, so architectures often build the code directly into
the core kernel, or create another module for the architecture
code.
Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric
Biggers has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After
that it changes to better calling conventions that allow for

For example, the forward declaration `struct regmap_access_table;` in a header file currently generates a warning recommending that it is generally declared as const; however, this would apply a useless type qualifier in the empty declaration `const struct regmap_access_table;`, and subsequently generate compiler warnings.

- Welcome new BPF maintainers: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Eduard
Zingerman while Martin KaFai Lau reduced his load to Reviwer.
- Lots of fixes everywhere from many first time contributors. Thank you
All.
- Diff stat is dominated by mechanical split of verifier.c into
multiple components:
- backtrack.c: backtracking logic and jump history
- states.c: state equivalence
- cfg.c: control flow graph, postorder, strongly connected
components
- liveness.c: register and stack liveness
- fixups.c: post-verification passes: instruction patching, dead
code removal, bpf_loop inlining, finalize fastcall
8k line were moved. verifier.c still stands at 20k lines.
Further refactoring is planned for the next release.
- Replace dynamic stack liveness with static stack liveness based on
data flow analysis.
This improved the verification time by 2x for some programs and
equally reduced memory consumption. New logic is in liveness.c and
supported by constant folding in const_fold.c (Eduard Zingerman,
Alexei Starovoitov)

Pull module updates from Sami Tolvanen:
"Kernel symbol flags:
- Replace the separate *_gpl symbol sections (__ksymtab_gpl and
__kcrctab_gpl) with a unified symbol table and a new __kflagstab
section.
This section stores symbol flags, such as the GPL-only flag, as an
8-bit bitset for each exported symbol. This is a cleanup that
simplifies symbol lookup in the module loader by avoiding table
fragmentation and will allow a cleaner way to add more flags later
if needed.
Module signature UAPI:
- Move struct module_signature to the UAPI headers to allow reuse by
tools outside the kernel proper, such as kmod and
scripts/sign-file.
This also renames a few constants for clarity and drops unused
signature types as preparation for hash-based module integrity
checking work that's in progress.
Sysfs:
- Add a /sys/module/<module>/import_ns sysfs attribute to show the
symbol namespaces imported by loaded modules.
This makes it easier to verify driver API access at runtime on
systems that care about such things (e.g. Android).
Cleanups and fixes:
- Force sh_addr to 0 for all sections in module.lds. This prevents
non-zero section addresses when linking modules with 'ld.bfd -r',
which confused elfutils.
- Fix a memory leak of charp module parameters on module unload when
the kernel is configured with CONFIG_SYSFS=n.
- Override the -EEXIST error code returned by module_init() to
userspace. This prevents confusion with the errno reserved by the
module loader to indicate that a module is already loaded.
- Simplify the warning message and drop the stack dump on positive
returns from module_init().
- Drop unnecessary extern keywords from function declarations and
synchronize parse_args() arguments with their implementation"

Merge tag 'timers-core-2026-04-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- A rework of the hrtimer subsystem to reduce the overhead for
frequently armed timers, especially the hrtick scheduler timer:
- Better timer locality decision
- Simplification of the evaluation of the first expiry time by
keeping track of the neighbor timers in the RB-tree by providing
a RB-tree variant with neighbor links. That avoids walking the
RB-tree on removal to find the next expiry time, but even more
important allows to quickly evaluate whether a timer which is
rearmed changes the position in the RB-tree with the modified
expiry time or not. If not, the dequeue/enqueue sequence which
both can end up in rebalancing can be completely avoided.
- Deferred reprogramming of the underlying clock event device. This
optimizes for the situation where a hrtimer callback sets the
need resched bit. In that case the code attempts to defer the
re-programming of the clock event device up to the point where
the scheduler has picked the next task and has the next hrtick
timer armed. In case that there is no immediate reschedule or
soft interrupts have to be handled before reaching the reschedule
point in the interrupt entry code the clock event is reprogrammed
in one of those code paths to prevent that the timer becomes
stale.
- Support for clocksource coupled clockevents
The TSC deadline timer is coupled to the TSC. The next event is
programmed in TSC time. Currently this is done by converting the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC based expiry value into a relative timeout,
converting it into TSC ticks, reading the TSC adding the delta
ticks and writing the deadline MSR.
As the timekeeping core has the conversion factors for the TSC
already, the whole back and forth conversion can be completely
avoided. The timekeeping core calculates the reverse conversion
factors from nanoseconds to TSC ticks and utilizes the base
timestamps of TSC and CLOCK_MONOTONIC which are updated once per
tick. This allows a direct conversion into the TSC deadline value
without reading the time and as a bonus keeps the deadline
conversion in sync with the TSC conversion factors, which are
updated by adjtimex() on systems with NTP/PTP enabled.
- Allow inlining of the clocksource read and clockevent write
functions when they are tiny enough, e.g. on x86 RDTSC and WRMSR.
With all those enhancements in place a hrtick enabled scheduler
provides the same performance as without hrtick. But also other
hrtimer users obviously benefit from these optimizations.
- Robustness improvements and cleanups of historical sins in the
hrtimer and timekeeping code.
- Rewrite of the clocksource watchdog.
The clocksource watchdog code has over time reached the state of an
impenetrable maze of duct tape and staples. The original design,
which was made in the context of systems far smaller than today, is
based on the assumption that the to be monitored clocksource (TSC)
can be trivially compared against a known to be stable clocksource
(HPET/ACPI-PM timer).
Over the years this rather naive approach turned out to have major
flaws. Long delays between the watchdog invocations can cause wrap
arounds of the reference clocksource. The access to the reference
clocksource degrades on large multi-sockets systems dure to
interconnect congestion. This has been addressed with various
heuristics which degraded the accuracy of the watchdog to the point
that it fails to detect actual TSC problems on older hardware which
exposes slow inter CPU drifts due to firmware manipulating the TSC to
hide SMI time.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Restricting the validation against the reference clocksource to
the boot CPU which is usually closest to the legacy block which
contains the reference clocksource (HPET/ACPI-PM).
- Do a round robin validation betwen the boot CPU and the other
CPUs based only on the TSC with an algorithm similar to the TSC
synchronization code during CPU hotplug.
- Being more leniant versus remote timeouts
- The usual tiny fixes, cleanups and enhancements all over the place
