Pull rust fixes from Miguel Ojeda: - Two changes to prepare for the future Rust 1.91.0 release (expected 2025-10-30, currently in nightly): a target specification format change and a renamed, soon-to-be-stabilized 'core' function. * tag 'rust-fixes-6.17-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ojeda/linux: rust: support Rust >= 1.91.0 target spec rust: use the new name Location::file_as_c_str() in Rust >= 1.91.0

rust: support Rust >= 1.91.0 target spec

2025-08-31T21:34:34Z

Starting with Rust 1.91.0 (expected 2025-10-30), the target spec format has changed the type of the `target-pointer-width` key from string to integer [1]. Thus conditionally use one or the other depending on the version.

kasan: fix GCC mem-intrinsic prefix with sw tags

2025-08-28T05:45:43Z

GCC doesn't support "hwasan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix", only "asan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix"[0], while LLVM supports both. This is already taken into account when checking "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX", but not in the KASAN Makefile adding those parameters when "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" is enabled. Replace the version check with "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX", which already validates that mem-intrinsic prefix parameter can be used, and choose the correct name depending on compiler. GCC 13 and above trigger "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX" which prevents `mem{cpy,move,set}()` being redefined in "mm/kasan/shadow.c" since commit 36be5cba99f6 ("kasan: treat meminstrinsic as builtins in uninstrumented files"), as we expect the compiler to prefix those calls with `__(hw)asan_` instead. But as the option passed to GCC has been incorrect, the compiler has not been emitting those prefixes, effectively never calling the instrumented versions of `mem{cpy,move,set}()` with "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" enabled. If "CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCES" is enabled, this issue would be mitigated as it redefines `mem{cpy,move,set}()` and properly aliases the `__underlying_mem*()` that will be called to the instrumented versions.

kconfig: lxdialog: replace strcpy() with strncpy() in inputbox.c

2025-08-06T01:23:36Z

strcpy() performs no bounds checking and can lead to buffer overflows if the input string exceeds the destination buffer size. This patch replaces it with strncpy(), and null terminates the input string. Signed-off-by: Suchit Karunakaran Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "Toolchain and infrastructure: - Enable a set of Clippy lints: 'ptr_as_ptr', 'ptr_cast_constness', 'as_ptr_cast_mut', 'as_underscore', 'cast_lossless' and 'ref_as_ptr' These are intended to avoid type casts with the 'as' operator, which are quite powerful, into restricted variants that are less powerful and thus should help to avoid mistakes - Remove the 'author' key now that most instances were moved to the plural one in the previous cycle 'kernel' crate: - New 'bug' module: add 'warn_on!' macro which reuses the existing 'BUG'/'WARN' infrastructure, i.e. it respects the usual sysctls and kernel parameters: warn_on!(value == 42); To avoid duplicating the assembly code, the same strategy is followed as for the static branch code in order to share the assembly between both C and Rust This required a few rearrangements on C arch headers -- the existing C macros should still generate the same outputs, thus no functional change expected there - 'workqueue' module: add delayed work items, including a 'DelayedWork' struct, a 'impl_has_delayed_work!' macro and an 'enqueue_delayed' method, e.g.: /// Enqueue the struct for execution on the system workqueue, /// where its value will be printed 42 jiffies later. fn print_later(value: Arc) { let _ = workqueue::system().enqueue_delayed(value, 42); } - New 'bits' module: add support for 'bit' and 'genmask' functions, with runtime- and compile-time variants, e.g.: static_assert!(0b00010000 == bit_u8(4)); static_assert!(0b00011110 == genmask_u8(1..=4)); assert!(checked_bit_u32(u32::BITS).is_none()); - 'uaccess' module: add 'UserSliceReader::strcpy_into_buf', which reads NUL-terminated strings from userspace into a '&CStr' Introduce 'UserPtr' newtype, similar in purpose to '__user' in C, to minimize mistakes handling userspace pointers, including mixing them up with integers and leaking them via the 'Debug' trait. Add it to the prelude, too - Start preparations for the replacement of our custom 'CStr' type with the analogous type in the 'core' standard library. This will take place across several cycles to make it easier. For this one, it includes a new 'fmt' module, using upstream method names and some other cleanups Replace 'fmt!' with a re-export, which helps Clippy lint properly, and clean up the found 'uninlined-format-args' instances - 'dma' module: - Clarify wording and be consistent in 'coherent' nomenclature - Convert the 'read!()' and 'write!()' macros to return a 'Result' - Add 'as_slice()', 'write()' methods in 'CoherentAllocation' - Expose 'count()' and 'size()' in 'CoherentAllocation' and add the corresponding type invariants - Implement 'CoherentAllocation::dma_handle_with_offset()' - 'time' module: - Make 'Instant' generic over clock source. This allows the compiler to assert that arithmetic expressions involving the 'Instant' use 'Instants' based on the same clock source - Make 'HrTimer' generic over the timer mode. 'HrTimer' timers take a 'Duration' or an 'Instant' when setting the expiry time, depending on the timer mode. With this change, the compiler can check the type matches the timer mode - Add an abstraction for 'fsleep'. 'fsleep' is a flexible sleep function that will select an appropriate sleep method depending on the requested sleep time - Avoid 64-bit divisions on 32-bit hardware when calculating timestamps - Seal the 'HrTimerMode' trait. This prevents users of the 'HrTimerMode' from implementing the trait on their own types - Pass the correct timer mode ID to 'hrtimer_start_range_ns()' - 'list' module: remove 'OFFSET' constants, allowing to remove pointer arithmetic; now 'impl_list_item!' invokes 'impl_has_list_links!' or 'impl_has_list_links_self_ptr!'. Other simplifications too - 'types' module: remove 'ForeignOwnable::PointedTo' in favor of a constant, which avoids exposing the type of the opaque pointer, and require 'into_foreign' to return non-null Remove the 'Either' type as well. It is unused, and we want to encourage the use of custom enums for concrete use cases - 'sync' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Arc' types to allow them to be used in generic APIs - 'alloc' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Box'; and 'Borrow', 'BorrowMut' and 'Default' for 'Vec' - 'Opaque' type: add 'cast_from' method to perform a restricted cast that cannot change the inner type and use it in callers of 'container_of!'. Rename 'raw_get' to 'cast_into' to match it - 'rbtree' module: add 'is_empty' method - 'sync' module: new 'aref' submodule to hold 'AlwaysRefCounted' and 'ARef', which are moved from the too general 'types' module which we want to reduce or eventually remove. Also fix a safety comment in 'static_lock_class' 'pin-init' crate: - Add 'impl [Pin]Init for Result', so results are now (pin-)initializers - Add 'Zeroable::init_zeroed()' that delegates to 'init_zeroed()' - New 'zeroed()', a safe version of 'mem::zeroed()' and also provide it via 'Zeroable::zeroed()' - Implement 'Zeroable' for 'Option<&T>', 'Option<&mut T>' and for 'Option<[unsafe] [extern "abi"] fn(...args...) -> ret>' for '"Rust"' and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20 arguments - Changed blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl [Pin]Init for T' to 'impl [Pin]Init for T' - Renamed 'zeroed()' to 'init_zeroed()' - Upstream dev news: improve CI more to deny warnings, use '--all-targets'.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: "As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets. 21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up", "cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc. I never knew the MM code was so dirty. "mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes) addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent VMAs. "mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park) adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of DAMON in production environments. "stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig) is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of pointers from struct writeback_control. "drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom) contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and management code. "mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman) does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code. "Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts) implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading into order>0 folios. "selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown) provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the selftests code. "Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain) does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark. "Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox) expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page(). "mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand) addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code. These were not known to be causing any issues at this time. "mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park) provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON. "use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes) uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other types. "mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy) increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd code. "mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple) removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags. "mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park) implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON sysfs layer. "madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes) does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code. "madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka) provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort. "Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador) creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes. Previously these were lumped under the more general memory on/offline notifier. "Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan) cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice. "selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park) adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite. "Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador) fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and follows that fix with a series of cleanups. "cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport) rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA allocator. "mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand) provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code. "mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park) adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code. "mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park) does that. "mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park) also does what it claims. "mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand) cleans up the large folio PTE batching code. "mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park) facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation policy. "Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola) provides a couple of page->folio conversions. "mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso) implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the current memcg-based implementation. "mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park) replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface. "mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes) implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed reliably. "drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga) switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range(). "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park) augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a tunable to control the update interval. "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi) does what is claims. "mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand) provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe directly. "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan) addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than half in some situations. The series also introduces several new selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface. "__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan) cleans up __folio_split()! "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain) provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing with large folios. "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian) does some cleanup work in the selftests code. "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes) extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" feature. "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park) extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all possible user-requested parameters.
