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.
And some other fixes, cleanups and improvements"

This is a back merge since the pull request has a newer base -- we will
avoid that in the future.
And, given it is a back merge, it happens to resolve the "subtle" conflict
around '--remap-path-{prefix,scope}' that I discussed in linux-next [1],
plus a few other common conflicts. The result matches what we did for
next-20260407.

By default bindgen will convert 'enum lru_status' into a typedef for an
integer. For the most part, an integer of the same size as the enum
results in the correct ABI, but in the specific case of CFI, that is not
the case. The CFI encoding is supposed to be the same as a struct called
'lru_status' rather than the name of the underlying native integer type.
To fix this, tell bindgen to generate a newtype and set the CFI type
explicitly. Note that we need to set the CFI attribute explicitly as
bindgen is using repr(transparent), which is otherwise identical to the
inner type for ABI purposes.
This allows us to remove the page range helper C function in Binder
without risking a CFI failure when list_lru_walk calls the provided
function pointer.
The --with-attribute-custom-enum argument requires bindgen v0.71 or
greater.
[ In particular, the feature was added in 0.71.0 [1][2].
In addition, `feature(cfi_encoding)` has been available since
Rust 1.71.0 [3].

My testing procedure was to add this to the android17-6.18 branch and
verify that rust_shrink_free_page is successfully called without crash,
and verify that it does in fact crash when the cfi_encoding is set to
other values. Note that I couldn't test this on android16-6.12 as that
branch uses a bindgen version that is too old.

This list gets populated once the transaction is delivered to the target
process, at which point it's not touched again except in BC_FREE_BUFFER
and process exit, so if the list has been populated then this code
should not run in the context of the wrong userspace process.
However, why tempt fate? The function itself can run in the context of
both the sender and receiver, and if someone can engineer a scenario
where it runs in the sender and this list is non-empty (or future Rust
Binder changes make such a scenario possible), then that'd be a problem
because we'd be closing random unrelated fds in the wrong process.
Note that on process exit, the == comparison may actually fail because
it's called from a kthread. The fd closing code is a no-op on kthreads,
so there is no actual behavior different though.

Rust Binder exposes information about transactions that are sent in
various ways: printing to the kernel log, tracepoints, files in
binderfs, and the upcoming netlink support. Currently all these
mechanisms use disparate ways of obtaining the same information, so
let's introduce a single Info struct that collects all the required
information in a single place, so that all of these different mechanisms
can operate in a more uniform way.
For now, the new info struct is only used to replace a few things:
* The BinderTransactionDataSg struct that is passed as an argument to
several methods is removed as the information is moved into the new
info struct and passed down that way.
* The oneway spam detection fields on Transaction and Allocation can be
removed, as the information can be returned to the caller via the
mutable info struct instead.
But several other uses of the info struct are planned in follow-up
patches.

When declaring an immutable global variable in Rust, the compiler checks
that it looks thread safe, because it is generally safe to access said
global variable. When using C bindings types for these globals, we don't
really want this check, because it is conservative and assumes pointers
are not thread safe.
In the case of BINDER_VM_OPS, this is a challenge when combined with the
patch 'userfaultfd: introduce vm_uffd_ops' [1], which introduces a
pointer field to vm_operations_struct. It previously only held function
pointers, which are considered thread safe.
Rust Binder should not be assuming that vm_operations_struct contains no
pointer fields, so to fix this, use AssertSync (which Rust Binder has
already declared for another similar global of type struct
file_operations with the same problem). This ensures that even if
another commit adds a pointer field to vm_operations_struct, this does
not cause problems.

When a process is deregistered from the binder context, the all_procs
vector may have significant unused capacity. Add logic to shrink the
vector using a conservative strategy that prevents shrink-then-regrow
oscillation.
The shrinking strategy triggers when length drops below 1/4 of capacity,
and shrinks to twice the current length rather than to the exact length.
This provides hysteresis to avoid repeated reallocations when the process
count fluctuates.
The shrink operation uses GFP_KERNEL and is allowed to fail gracefully
since it is purely an optimization. The vector remains valid and
functional even if shrinking fails.

Currently ps -A shows processes waiting on schedule() in functions with
names such as do_epoll_wait, wait_woken, and the impeccably named
_RNvMs2_NtCs8QPsHWIn21X_16rust_binder_main6threadNtB5_6Thread8get_work.
To improve how ps output looks, give explicit non-mangled names to the
functions where Rust Binder calls schedule(), since these are the most
likely places to show up on ps output.
The name of rust_binder_waitlcl is truncated instead of using _local
suffix because rust_binder_wait_local is sufficiently long that ps shows
unaligned output.
This is intended to be a temporary workaround until we find a better
solution. Adding #[export_name] to every Rust function that calls
schedule() is not a great long-term solution.

Consider the following sequence of events on a death listener:
1. The remote process dies and sends a BR_DEAD_BINDER message.
2. The local process invokes the BC_CLEAR_DEATH_NOTIFICATION command.
3. The local process then invokes the BC_DEAD_BINDER_DONE.
Then, the kernel will reply to the BC_DEAD_BINDER_DONE command with a
BR_CLEAR_DEATH_NOTIFICATION_DONE reply using push_work_if_looper().
However, this can result in a deadlock if the current thread is not a
looper. This is because dead_binder_done() still holds the proc lock
during set_notification_done(), which called push_work_if_looper().
Normally, push_work_if_looper() takes the thread lock, which is fine to
take under the proc lock. But if the current thread is not a looper,
then it falls back to delivering the reply to the process work queue,
which involves taking the proc lock. Since the proc lock is already
held, this is a deadlock.
Fix this by releasing the proc lock during set_notification_done(). It
was not intentional that it was held during that function to begin with.
I don't think this ever happens in Android because BC_DEAD_BINDER_DONE
is only invoked in response to BR_DEAD_BINDER messages, and the kernel
always delivers BR_DEAD_BINDER to a looper. So there's no scenario where
Android userspace will call BC_DEAD_BINDER_DONE on a non-looper thread.

When sending a transaction, its offsets array is first copied into the
target proc's vma, and then the values are read back from there. This is
normally fine because the vma is a read-only mapping, so the target
process cannot change the value under us.
However, if the target process somehow gains the ability to write to its
own vma, it could change the offset before it's read back, causing the
kernel to misinterpret what the sender meant. If the sender happens to
send a payload with a specific shape, this could in the worst case lead
to the receiver being able to privilege escalate into the sender.
The intent is that gaining the ability to change the read-only vma of
your own process should not be exploitable, so remove this TOCTOU read
even though it's unexploitable without another Binder bug.

When installing missing pages (or zapping them), Rust Binder will look
up the vma in the mm by address, and then call vm_insert_page (or
zap_page_range_single). However, if the vma is closed and replaced with
a different vma at the same address, this can lead to Rust Binder
installing pages into the wrong vma.
By installing the page into a writable vma, it becomes possible to write
to your own binder pages, which are normally read-only. Although you're
not supposed to be able to write to those pages, the intent behind the
design of Rust Binder is that even if you get that ability, it should not
lead to anything bad. Unfortunately, due to another bug, that is not the
case.
To fix this, store a pointer in vm_private_data and check that the vma
returned by vma_lookup() has the right vm_ops and vm_private_data before
trying to use the vma. This should ensure that Rust Binder will refuse
to interact with any other VMA. The plan is to introduce more vma
abstractions to avoid this unsafe access to vm_ops and vm_private_data,
but for now let's start with the simplest possible fix.
C Binder performs the same check in a slightly different way: it
provides a vm_ops->close that sets a boolean to true, then checks that
boolean after calling vma_lookup(), but this is more fragile
than the solution in this patch. (We probably still want to do both, but
the vm_ops->close callback will be added later as part of the follow-up
vma API changes.)
It's still possible to remap the vma so that pages appear in the right
vma, but at the wrong offset, but this is a separate issue and will be
fixed when Rust Binder gets a vm_ops->close callback.

The spam detection logic in TreeRange was executed before the current
request was inserted into the tree. So the new request was not being
factored in the spam calculation. Fix this by moving the logic after
the new range has been inserted.
Also, the detection logic for ArrayRange was missing altogether which
meant large spamming transactions could get away without being detected.
Fix this by implementing an equivalent low_oneway_space() in ArrayRange.
Note that I looked into centralizing this logic in RangeAllocator but
iterating through 'state' and 'size' got a bit too complicated (for me)
and I abandoned this effort.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Lock debugging:
- Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context checking,
using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context analysis features
(Marco Elver)
We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context tracking
Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which are false
positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of false positive
context tracking Sparse warnings grows to over 5,200... On the plus
side of the balance actual locking bugs found by Sparse context
analysis is also rather ... sparse: I found only 3 such commits in
the last 3 years. So the rate of false positives and the
maintenance overhead is rather high and there appears to be no
active policy in place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move
the annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.
Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive in
trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has a different
model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by subsystem, which
results in zero warnings on all relevant kernel builds (as far as
our testing managed to cover it). Which allowed us to enable it by
default, similar to other compiler warnings, with the expectation
that there are no warnings going forward. This enforces a
zero-warnings baseline on clang-22+ builds (Which are still limited
in distribution, admittedly)
Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more subsystems
and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking can be enabled
for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y (default
disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.
( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )

Oneway transactions sent to frozen targets via binder_proc_transaction()
return a BR_TRANSACTION_PENDING_FROZEN error but they are still treated
as successful since the target is expected to thaw at some point. It is
then not safe to access 't' after BR_TRANSACTION_PENDING_FROZEN errors
as the transaction could have been consumed by the now thawed target.
This is the case for binder_netlink_report() which derreferences 't'
after a pending frozen error, as pointed out by the following KASAN

Fix a bug where an empty FDA (fd array) object with 0 fds would cause an
out-of-bounds error. The previous implementation used `skip == 0` to
mean "this is a pointer fixup", but 0 is also the correct skip length
for an empty FDA. If the FDA is at the end of the buffer, then this
results in an attempt to write 8-bytes out of bounds. This is caught and
results in an EINVAL error being returned to userspace.
The pattern of using `skip == 0` as a special value originates from the
C-implementation of Binder. As part of fixing this bug, this pattern is
replaced with a Rust enum.
I considered the alternate option of not pushing a fixup when the length
is zero, but I think it's cleaner to just get rid of the zero-is-special
stuff.
The root cause of this bug was diagnosed by Gemini CLI on first try. I
used the following prompt:
> There appears to be a bug in @drivers/android/binder/thread.rs where
> the Fixups oob bug is triggered with 316 304 316 324. This implies
