RISC-V uses -fpatchable-function-entry=8,4 when the compressed ISA is
enabled and -fpatchable-function-entry=4,2 otherwise. In both cases, the
patchable NOP area starts 8 bytes before the function symbol address.
The __mcount_loc entries therefore point at the patchable NOP area
associated with a function, while nm reports the function symbol at the
entry address used for the function range check.
After RISC-V selected HAVE_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT, sorttable started
applying that range check at build time. Without allowing entries just
before the reported function address, the mcount sorter treats valid
RISC-V ftrace callsites as invalid weak-function entries and writes
them back as zero. The resulting kernel boots with no ftrace entries,
breaking dynamic ftrace and users such as livepatch.
The failure is silent during the final link because zeroing weak-function
entries is an expected sorttable operation. At boot, those zero entries
are skipped by ftrace_process_locs(), so the only obvious symptom is that
the vmlinux ftrace table has lost valid callsites and ftrace users cannot
attach to them.
CONFIG_FTRACE_SORT_STARTUP_TEST also reports the table as sorted in this
state: it only checks that the __mcount_loc entries are in ascending
order, which a fully zeroed table trivially satisfies. The original
commit relied on this check and did not see the regression.
On an affected RISC-V QEMU boot with both CONFIG_FTRACE_SORT_STARTUP_TEST
and CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST enabled, the sort check still passes
while ftrace reports zero usable entries and the early selftests fail:
[ 0.000000] ftrace section at ffffffff8101da98 sorted properly
[ 0.000000] ftrace: allocating 0 entries in 128 pages
[ 0.054999] Testing tracer function: .. no entries found ..FAILED!
[ 0.172407] tracer: function failed selftest, disabling
[ 0.178186] Failed to init function_graph tracer, init returned -19
Handle RISC-V like arm64 for the function-range check and allow
patchable entries up to 8 bytes before the function address.
With this fix, a RISC-V QEMU smoke boot with ftrace startup tests shows
the vmlinux ftrace table is populated and dynamic ftrace still works:
[ 0.000000] ftrace: allocating 46749 entries in 184 pages
[ 0.051115] Testing tracer function: PASSED
[ 1.283782] Testing dynamic ftrace: PASSED
[ 6.275456] Testing tracer function_graph: PASSED

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"

When reading .config input, Kconfig stores user-provided values first
and then resolves the final value after applying dependencies, ranges,
and other constraints.
If the final value differs from the user input, Kconfig already tracks
that state internally, but it does not provide a focused diagnostic to
show which explicit inputs were adjusted. This is particularly confusing
for requested values that get forced down by unmet dependencies or
clamped by ranges.
Add an opt-in diagnostic controlled by KCONFIG_WARN_CHANGED_INPUT. Emit
the warnings from conf_write() and conf_write_defconfig() after value
resolution. Print the diagnostic to stderr directly, not through the
normal message callback, so it remains visible when conf is run with -s,
such as from make -s.
Keep the diagnostic out of the conf_message() formatting buffer so long
warning lists are not truncated, and mark processed symbols as written
before the SYMBOL_WRITE check so duplicate menu nodes cannot emit
duplicate warnings.
Document the new environment variable and add tests for olddefconfig,
savedefconfig, and the silent-conf path.

When building the kernel with Clang ThinLTO enabled, the compiler
can mangle static variable names by appending suffixes such as
".llvm.<hash>" to prevent naming collisions across translation units.
This name mangling breaks the section mismatch whitelisting in modpost.
modpost relies on glob patterns (e.g., "*_ops" or "*_probe") to identify
safe references between permanent data and initialization code. Because
the LTO suffix modifies the end of the symbol name, legitimately
whitelisted structures fail the match, resulting in false positive
warnings.
For example, a static pernet_operations struct triggers the following:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: \
ping_v4_net_ops.llvm.5641696707737373282 (section: .data) -> \
ping_v4_proc_init_net (section: .init.text)
Fix this by ignoring "*_ops.llvm.*" in "from" symbol names (the same
as "*_ops").

Pull NOHZ updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Fix a long standing TOCTOU in get_cpu_sleep_time_us()
- Make the CPU offline NOHZ handling more robust by disabling NOHZ on
the outgoing CPU early instead of creating unneeded state which needs
to be undone.
- Unify idle CPU time accounting instead of having two different
accounting mechanisms. These two different mechanisms are not really
independent, but the different properties can in the worst case cause
that gloabl idle time can be observed going backwards.
- Consolidate the idle/iowait time retrieval interfaces instead of
converting back and forth between them.
- Make idle interrupt time accounting more robust. The original code
assumes that interrupt time accouting is enabled and therefore stops
elapsing idle time while an interrupt is handled in NOHZ dyntick
state. That assumption is not correct as interrupt time accounting
can be disabled at compile and runtime.
- Fix an accounting error between dyntick idle time and dyntick idle
steal time. The stolen time is not accounted and therefore idle time
becomes inaccurate. The stolen time is now accounted after the fact
as there is no way to predict the steal time upfront.

"Updates for the time/timer core subsystem:
- Harden the user space controllable hrtimer interfaces further to
protect against unpriviledged DoS attempts by arming timers in the
past.
- Add per-capacity hierarchies to the timer migration code to prevent
timer migration accross different capacity domains. This code has
been disabled last minute as there is a pathological problem with
SoCs which advertise a larger number of capacity domains. The
problem is under investigation and the code won't be active before
v7.3, but that turned out to be less intrusive than a full revert
as it preserves the preparatory steps and allows people to work on
the final resolution
- Export time namespace functionality as a recent user can be built
as a module.
- Initialize the jiffies clocksource before using it. The recent
hardening against time moving backward requires that the related
members of struct clocksource have been initialized, otherwise it
clamps the readout to 0, which makes time stand sill and causes
boot delays.
- Fix a more than twenty year old PID reference count leak in an
error path of the POSIX CPU timer code.
- The usual small fixes, improvements and cleanups all over the
place"

Pull interrupt core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Rework of /proc/interrupt handling:
/proc/interrupts was subject to micro optimizations for a long time,
but most of the low hanging fruit was left on the table. This rework
addresses the major time consuming issues:
- Printing a long series of zeros one by one via a format string
instead of counting subsequent zeros and emitting a string
constant.
- Simplify and cache the conditions whether interrupts should be
printed
- Use a proper iteration over the interrupt descriptor xarray
instead of walking and testing one by one.
- Provide helper functions for the architecture code to emit the
architecture specific counters
- Convert the counter structure in x86 to an array, which
simplifies the output and add mechanisms to suppress unused
architecture interrupts, which just occupy space for nothing.
Adopt the new core mechanisms.
This adjusts the gdb scripts related to interrupt counter statistics
to work with the new mechanisms.
- Prevent a string overflow in the /proc/irq/$N/ directory name
creation code.

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"

Some WMI GUIDs found inside binary MOF files contain both
uppercase and lowercase characters. Blindly copying such
GUIDs will prevent the associated WMI driver from loading
automatically because the WMI GUID found inside WMI device ids
always contains uppercase characters.
Avoid this issue by always converting WMI GUID strings to
uppercase. Also verify that the WMI GUID string actually looks
like a valid GUID.

main() called JobserverExec().run() and discarded its return value,
then the script exited with the implicit status 0. As a result, any
Makefile that wired a build step through jobserver-exec saw the step
silently succeed even when the wrapped command had failed.
Two in-tree callers were affected:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/Makefile
cmd_chk_style runs a python checker via jobserver-exec and uses
"&& touch $@ || true" so failures leave the stamp file untouched
and the next make rerun reports them again. The swallowed exit
code made the stamp file get created even on failure, caching the
failed run and hiding the reported issues until the inputs change.
scripts/Makefile.vmlinux_o
cmd_gen_initcalls_lds runs scripts/generate_initcall_order.pl via
jobserver-exec; a perl failure was masked by the wrapper.
Return the subprocess exit code from main() and pass it to sys.exit()

Add a Python tool that checks DTS coding style on examples in YAML
binding files and on .dts/.dtsi/.dtso source files. Rules are kept in
a small declarative registry, each tagged 'relaxed' (default; must be
zero-violation on the current tree) or 'strict' (opt-in for new
submissions). Promoting a rule from strict to relaxed is a one-line
edit once the tree is clean.
Relaxed mode covers trailing whitespace, tab characters in YAML
examples, mixed tab+space indents, and missing tabs in .dts files.
Strict adds indent unit and consistency checks, blank-line placement,
sibling address ordering, "compatible" and "reg" ordering, and unused
labels.
The tool reads file paths from @argfile and parallelises across CPUs
via -j N. With no -j given it picks up $PARALLELISM (set by
scripts/jobserver-exec from the GNU make jobserver) and falls back to
os.cpu_count() otherwise. Running as one Python invocation amortises
the ruamel.yaml import across the whole tree -- ~2s on a 32-CPU host
vs ~28s sequential.

Enable building Rust code on s390 by wiring the architecture into the
kernel Rust infrastructure.
Add s390 to the Rust arch support documentation, provide the s390 Rust
target and required compiler flags, and set the bindgen target for
arch/s390. Adjust the Rust target generation and minimum rustc version
gating so the s390 setup is handled explicitly.
The Rust toolchain uses the "s390x" triple naming for the 64 bit target.
Rust support is currently incompatible with CONFIG_EXPOLINE, which
relies on compiler support for the -mindirect-branch= and
-mfunction_return= options. Therefore, select HAVE_RUST only when

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.

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.

Starting with Rust 1.98.0 (expected 2026-08-20), the target spec will not
support `x86-softfloat` anymore [1]. Instead, `softfloat` should be used,
which is an alias. Otherwise, one gets:
error: error loading target specification: rustc-abi: invalid rustc abi: 'x86-softfloat'. allowed values: 'x86-sse2', 'softfloat' at line 3 column 32
|
= help: run `rustc --print target-list` for a list of built-in targets
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.

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.

Add a --json flag to get_maintainer.pl that emits structured JSON output,
making results machine-parseable for CI systems, IDE integrations, and
AI-assisted development tools.
The JSON output includes a maintainers array with structured name, email,
and role fields, plus optional arrays for scm, status, subsystem, web, and
bug information when those flags are enabled.
Normal text output behavior is completely unchanged when --json is not
specified.

checkpatch.pl searches for .checkpatch.conf in $CWD, $HOME and
$CWD/.scripts. Allow passing a single directory via CHECKPATCH_CONFIG_DIR
environment variable (empty value is ignored). This allows to directly
use project configuration file for projects which vendored checkpatch.pl
(e.g. LTP or u-boot).
Although it'd be more convenient for user to have --conf-dir option
(instead of using environment variable), code would get ugly because
options from the configuration file needs to be read before processing
command line options with Getopt::Long.
While at it, document directories and environment variable in -h help
and HTML doc.

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.
