"One of the 'small improvements all over the place' releases for us.
It's hard to draw any direct comparisons because summer vacations
disrupted our patch processing (and presumably - generation) quite a
bit.
Quick and dirty count suggests we (Paolo and I) merged a very similar
number of net (632) and net-next (648) patches. This is not telling
the full story either because 1/3 to 1/2 of the net-next patches also
*seem* like AI-driven low priority fixes, cleanups and clarifications.
We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that
we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run
reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates
some hallucinations. That said, in terms of review, the LLMs can only
do so much.
The sad truth is that our APIs (especially for rare events like PCIe
errors, timeouts etc) have always been racy, and now LLMs don't let us
ignore that. I expect our direction for the next release will be to
tweak the reviews a little bit more, but start shifting focus to
letting the LLMs take care of the busy work - managing patchwork,
automating common process complaints, editing commit messages, and
maybe applying patches which already got "reviewed-by" tags from
people we trust...

Pull bpf updates from Daniel Borkmann:
"Major changes:
- Redesign the verifier error reporting: failures now carry source
and instruction annotations along with the causal event history
that led to them, making program rejections far easier to debug and
repair (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)
- Add arena argument support to kfuncs and struct_ops through the new
__arena and __arena__nullable suffixes (Tejun Heo, Puranjay Mohan,
Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Ihor Solodrai)
- Signed BPF program loader rework to accommodate both BPF and
security community needs where the kernel runs the signature
verification at BPF_PROG_LOAD time before the LSM admission hook
(Daniel Borkmann)
- Add a set of ksock kfuncs which let BPF LSM and syscall programs
create, connect and send on UDP sockets in order to emit telemetry
data (Mahe Tardy)
- Unify helper and kfunc call argument verification and classify
kfunc arguments purely from BTF into a generated bpf_func_proto
which is computed once at add-call time (Amery Hung)
Other features and fixes:
- Enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for BPF allocations on x86 (Mike Rapoport)
- Add bidirectional VLAN support to bpf_fib_lookup() through the new
BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN and BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT flags (Avinash
Duduskar)
- Infer zext_dst from static register liveness analysis to fix 32-bit
zero-extension semantics, and remove the artificial limitations on
pointer types eligible for spilling (Eduard Zingerman)
- Inline the numeric open-coded iterator kfuncs so that bpf_for()
loops no longer pay a kfunc call on every iteration (Puranjay
Mohan)
- Add an arena-based bitmap data structure to libarena along with
serial and parallel selftests (Emil Tsalapatis)
- Teach resolve_btfids to discover kfuncs from the kernel's BTF ID
sets and to emit kfunc BTF decl tags, reducing the kernel build's
dependency on pahole features (Ihor Solodrai)
- Add BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_DECAP_* flags to bpf_skb_adjust_room() so that
tunnel decapsulation can update the GSO and encapsulation state of
the skb (Nick Hudson)
- Fix the ring buffer pending_pos walk and the available-data
accounting on 32-bit position wrap (Israel Téllez García)
- Add memory usage accounting for arena maps and fix an mmap_lock
deadlock on arena lock failure (Jiayuan Chen)
- Add tracing_multi link info support to the kernel UAPI and bpftool,
and refactor the stack map code to run with preemption disabled
(Jiri Olsa)
- Support BPF_F_EGRESS in bpf_redirect_peer() to emit the skb in the
egress direction of the target's peer device (Jordan Rife)
- Add a KF_SPINLOCK_SAFE kfunc flag so that providers, in particular
modules, can declare kfuncs safe to call under bpf_spin_lock
instead of relying on the verifier's hard-coded allowlist (Kaitao
Cheng)
- Introduce global percpu data for BPF programs with libbpf probing
and bpftool skeleton support, and stop exposing uninitialized
kernel heap memory when copying per-CPU map values (Leon Hwang)
- Add s390 JIT support for load-acquire and store-release
instructions (Maxim Khmelevskii)
- Fix a CFI mismatch in the task work callback and an arm64 KASAN
false positive after bpf_throw() (Mykyta Yatsenko)
- Reject writes through untrusted BTF pointers and bound the
rdonly/rdwr_buf_size kfunc arguments (Nicholas Dudar)
- Invalidate RCU pointers only after the final spin unlock and
account for preempt and IRQ disabled regions as overlapping RCU
protection (Ning Ding)
- Support mixing bpf2bpf calls and tail calls on RV64, add signed
operations and 32-bit atomics to the RV32 JIT, and add timed
may_goto support (Pu Lehui, Kuan-Wei Chiu, Feng Jiang)
- Fix a use-after-free on mm_struct in bpf_find_vma() for foreign
tasks and an mmap_lock leak in the irq_work path (Sanghyun Park)
- Populate mmap-able BPF array map memory lazily which makes mmap()
O(1) instead of proportional to the map size (Song Liu)
- Introduce a jit_required flag and reject programs with inlined
helpers when no JIT is available, where the interpreter would
otherwise jump into an invalid address (Tiezhu Yang)
- Fix the x86 JIT per-CPU address resolution into an extended
register where the REX prefix dropped the high destination register
bit (Vineet Gupta)
- Reject MEM_ALLOC BTF accesses past object bounds, arena frees below
the arena base, and mixed arena and ordinary atomic paths (Yiyang
Chen)
- Fix the trampoline handling of 128-bit arguments and of return
values larger than 8 bytes (Yonghong Song)
- Ensure that any fault prone load is rewritten with exception table
handling, and fix the arena load-acquire and atomic fetch handling
in the x86, arm64, riscv and s390 JITs (Daniel Borkmann)
- Many more fixes and cleanups across the verifier, arena,
trampolines, sockmap, cgroup, ring buffer, x86/arm64/riscv/s390
JITs, libbpf, bpftool, resolve_btfids and selftests"

Pull SoC devicetree updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"There are two new mystery SoCs with very little public information
about them so far, Qualcomm's Cortex-A78C based "Shikra" and Altera's
Cortex-A720 based Agilex72 SOCFPGA.
We have also gained support for a couple of SoCs from the 2023/2024
timeframe that have been in the making for a while:
- The Apple platform gains support for M3 Pro, Max and Ultra SoC,
following the basic M3 support from 7.2.
- Samsung Exynos 1580 is a high-end mobile phone SoC from 2024
- Canaan K230 is a RISC-V based 64-bit AI SoC, based on the earlier
K210 chip
- Sophgo SG2000 is a mixed Arm/RISC-V chip that was already supported
using the Arm core but is now also added for RISC-V along with
several other variants of the cv18xx series
In terms of newly added machines we have reference platforms for all
the chips above, plus
- Only four 32-bit Arm boards: two older phones and two older
industrial/embedded boards; using Allwinner, Qualcomm and Rockchip
SoCs
- Three laptops und three phones using Qualcomm SoCs
- Ten 64-bit Rockchips based single-board computers, along with one
NAS box and a game console.
- Seven industrial/embedded boards and modules using NXP i.MX8/9
SoCs.
- A Lenovo desktop box based on NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX
- A few more single-board computers based on Allwinnner A133,
Spacemit K1 and TI AM62.

The security team is still seeing a lot of reports lacking a full patch
and showing missing contents and formatting issues. Since AI assistants
tend to be better than humans at following instructions, let's defer to
coding-assistants.rst to follow mandatory steps, and insist on the plain
text format, as well as asking for recipient addresses and an e-mail
client setup hint to be mentioned early in the report for the reporter.
Also add a link to https://github.com/masoncl/kres.git which contains
way more advanced and detailed steps for those willing to go further.
Tested with Opus-5 and Qwen3.6-27B-Architect-Polaris2-Fable-B-F451, both
of which proceeded according to instructions.

Due to the increasing capabilities of available AI models, it's becoming
common to see them used to find bugs anywhere. Unfortunately the quality
of reports (especially when they're believed to be security relevant) is
still lacking a lot.
Let's add a section dedicated to bug finding, explaining the few
mandatory steps (noting commit ID, writing the fix from the session that
found the bug, building and testing, etc). This was tested both against
Qwen3.6-27B-Architect-Polaris2-Fable-B-F451 running under Hermes, and
Opus-5, and both followed the instructions to the letter, verifying
their results and checking threat-model.rst to decline the vulnerability
aspect. At least in the current form it's expected to improve the
situation a little bit.

Too often we're getting reports saying "still valid in latest mainline"
with no indication of when this was verified, making this indication
pointless. Let's clarify it and insist on having a version or commit ID,
and that the version must necessarily be for a kernel.org kernel and not
a distro one.

When originally writing the "fake USB device" entry, it was difficult
to find a suitable section for it and it ended up in "non production
use" but that doesn't fit particularly well. Actually it's very similar
to crafted filesystems, it's a matter of spec violation. Both drivers
and FS are written against a spec, and what the threat model doesn't
cover is out-of-spec use. So let's move the entry there and rename the
crafted FS entry to "Non-conforming devices and media" instead.
Overall it looks more consistent.
The spec was tested agains Qwen3.6-27B-Architect-Polaris2-Fable-B-F451,
Opus-5 and Gemini by reading the threat-model file, then reading a tens
of FS and driver fixes, and they were now all properly classified as
regular bugs, except two that Gemini and Opus rightfully classified as
vulns (Qwen didn't spot the security potential but that's out of our
scope).

Throwing an LLM (Opus 5) at a file looking for random bugs after having
read the threat model made it ignore certain bugs it found because "the
threat model said they must be ignored". When asked why, the LLM
rightfully reported the ambiguous wording used at a few places:
"is not a security bug", which can also be read as "is not a bug",
despite the rest of the document. That is particularly true when the

This change replaces "security bug" with "vulnerability" at a few places
in order to remove this identified ambiguity, and uses "bugs" instead of
issues in two such sentences to insist that what is described remains a

Commit 5903019b2a ("Documentation/SubmittingPatches: convert it to
ReST markup") made "DCO 1.1" a subsection under the section "Sign your
work - ...". However, the DCO text is meant to be referenced in the
section.
Furthermore, in HTML and PDF docs, paragraphs following the DCO:
then you just add a line saying:
Signed-off-by: [...]
[...]
as it was propagated to the maintainers and ultimately to Linus, with
the first SoB entry signalling primary authorship of a single author.
appear to belong to the DCO, rather than to "Sign your work - ..."
where it should.
In reST (and other documentation tools), once you start a subsection
under a section, there is no way to go back to the section.
Fix the section structure by making the DCO a literal block, with
indent changes made in commit 5903019b2a reverted.
While at it, fix the same issue at "Reviewer's statement of
oversight".

migrated[1] to:
- strscpy() for NUL-terminated destinations
- strscpy_pad() for NUL-terminated destinations needing zero-padding
- strtomem_pad() for non-NUL-terminated fixed-width fields
- memcpy_and_pad() for bounded copies with explicit padding
- memcpy() for known-length copies
Remove the generic implementation, its declaration, the FORTIFY_SOURCE

Commit 9edd04c418 ("docs: Raise minimum pahole version to 1.26 for
KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS kfuncs") raised the minimum required pahole version
from 1.22 to 1.26 in the requirements table and added a paragraph
explaining the failure mode for distributions still shipping pahole
v1.25 (e.g. Ubuntu 24.04 LTS).
The next day, commit ece7e57afd ("docs: changes.rst and ver_linux:
sort the lists") came through a different tree (docs vs sched_ext) and
re-flowed the table alphabetically, but its base did not include
9edd04c418. When the two commits met in mainline, the textual rewrite
of the table won and the version bump was lost. The added "Since Linux
7.0..." paragraph also disappeared.
The result is that changes.rst on master (v7.1-rc5) lists pahole 1.22
again, even though sched_ext kfuncs annotated with KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS
genuinely require v1.26 to produce a correct vmlinux BTF. Users on
distributions with pahole v1.25 hit "func_proto incompatible with
vmlinux" when loading any sched_ext BPF program (scx_simple,
scx_qmap, ...) and have no documentation pointing them at the version
gap.
Restore both changes from 9edd04c418.

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 e2ffa15b9b ("kbuild: Disable CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT on
clang < 17"). Unfortunately, this issue is reproducible with regular asm
goto in addition to asm goto with outputs, so that change was not
entirely sufficient to avoid the issue altogether. As asm goto has
effectively been required since commit a0a12c3ed0 ("asm goto:
eradicate CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO") and the usage of the cleanup attribute
continues to grow across the tree, raising the minimum to a version that
avoids this issue altogether is a better long term solution than
attempting to workaround it at every spot where it happens.
The second issue is an incompatibility with GCC 8.1+ around variables
marked with const being valid constant expressions for _Static_assert
and other macros [2]. With GCC 8.1 being the minimum supported version
since commit 118c40b7b5 ("kbuild: require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30"),
this incompatibility becomes more of a maintenance burden since only
clang-15 and clang-16 are affected by it.
Looking at the clang version of various major distributions through
Docker images, no one should be left behind as a result of this bump, as
the old ones cannot clear the current minimum of 15.0.0.

17.0.1 is chosen as the minimum instead of 17.0.0 to ensure that the
particular version of LLVM 17 has the two aforementioned bugs fixed, as
the second was fixed during the 17.0.0 release candidate phase and it
was not until LLVM 18 that LLVM adopted the scheme of x.0.0 being a
prerelease version and x.1.0 is a release version [3] to help with
scenarios such as this.

Common understanding of word "Reviewer" is: a person performing a review
work [1]. Tools are not persons, thus cannot be reviewers in this term.
Also tools cannot make statements and cannot take responsibility for the
review.
Our docs already clearly mark that "Reviewed-by" must come from a
person:
- "By offering my Reviewed-by: tag, I state that:"
Usage of first person "I" and word "state"
- "A Reviewed-by tag is *a statement of opinion* that the patch is an
appropriate modification of the kernel without any remaining serious"
Only a person can make a statement of opinion.
- "Any interested reviewer (who has done the work) can offer a
Reviewed-by"
A person can offer a tag thus above does not grant the tool
permission to offer a tag.
However this might not be enough, so let's clarify that only a person
with a known identity can state the "Reviewer's statement of oversight".

AI tools are increasingly used to assist in bug discovery. While these
tools can identify valid issues, reports that are submitted without
manual verification often lack context, contain speculative impact
assessments, or include unnecessary formatting. Such reports increase
triage effort, waste maintainers' time and may be ignored.
Reports where the reporter has verified the issue and the proposed fix
typically meet quality standards. This documentation outlines specific
requirements for length, formatting, and impact evaluation to reduce
the effort needed to deal with these reports.

The use of automated tools to find bugs in random locations of the kernel
induces a raise of security reports even if most of them should just be
reported as regular bugs. This patch is an attempt at drawing a line
between what qualifies as a security bug and what does not, hoping to
improve the situation and ease decision on the reporter's side.
It defers the enumeration to a new file, threat-model.rst, that tries
to enumerate various classes of issues that are and are not security
bugs. This should permit to more easily update this file for various
subsystem-specific rules without having to revisit the security bug
reporting guide.

With the increase of automated reports, the security team is dealing
with way more messages than really needed. The reporting process works
well with most teams so there is no need to systematically involve the
security team in reports.
Let's suggest to keep it for small lists of recipients and new reporters
only. This should continue to cover the risk of lost messages while
reducing the volume from prolific reporters.
