While attempting to build a Debian packages with CC="ccache gcc", I
saw the following error as builddeb builds linux-headers-$KERNELVERSION:
make HOSTCC=ccache gcc VPATH= srcroot=. -f ./scripts/Makefile.build obj=debian/linux-headers-6.14.0-rc1/usr/src/linux-headers-6.14.0-rc1/scripts
make[6]: *** No rule to make target 'gcc'. Stop.
Upon investigation, it seems that one instance of $(CC) variable reference
in ./scripts/package/install-extmod-build was missing quotation marks,
causing the above error.
Add the missing quotation marks around $(CC) to fix build.

Linus observed that the symbol_request(utf8_data_table) call fails when
CONFIG_UNICODE=y and CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y.
symbol_get() relies on the symbol data being present in the ksymtab for
symbol lookups. However, EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(utf8_data_table) is dropped
due to CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS, as no module references it in this case.
Probably, this has been broken since commit dbacb0ef67 ("kconfig option
for TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS").
This commit addresses the issue by leveraging modpost. Symbol names
passed to symbol_get() are recorded in the special .no_trim_symbol
section, which is then parsed by modpost to forcibly keep such symbols.
The .no_trim_symbol section is discarded by the linker scripts, so there
is no impact on the size of the final vmlinux or modules.
This commit cannot resolve the issue for direct calls to __symbol_get()
because the symbol name is not known at compile-time.
Although symbol_get() may eventually be deprecated, this workaround
should be good enough meanwhile.

Clang's -Wformat-overflow and -Wformat-truncation have chosen to check
'%p' unlike GCC but it does not know about the kernel's pointer
extensions in lib/vsprintf.c, so the developers split that part of the
warning out for the kernel to disable because there will always be false
positives.
Commit 908dd50827 ("kbuild: enable -Wformat-truncation on clang") did
disabled these warnings but only in a block that would be called when
W=1 was not passed, so they would appear with W=1. Move the disabling of
the non-kprintf warnings to a block that always runs so that they are
never seen, regardless of warning level.

Due to the fact that runtime const ELF sections are named without a
leading period or double underscore, the RSTRIP logic that removes the
static RELA sections from vmlinux fails to identify them. This results
in a situation like below, where some sections that were supposed to get
removed are left behind.

So tweak the match expression to strip all sections starting with .rel.
While at it, consolidate the logic used by RISC-V, s390 and x86 into a
single shared Makefile library command.

GCC 15 introduces a regression in "= { 0 }" style initialization of
unions that Linux has depended on for eliminating uninitialized variable
contents. GCC does not seem likely to fix it[1], instead suggesting[2]
that affected projects start using -fzero-init-padding-bits=unions.
To avoid future surprises beyond just the current situation with unions,
enable -fzero-init-padding-bits=all when available (GCC 15+). This will
correctly zero padding bits in unions and structs that might have been
left uninitialized, and will make sure there is no immediate regression
in union initializations. As seen in the stackinit KUnit selftest union
cases, which were passing before, were failing under GCC 15:
not ok 18 test_small_start_old_zero
ok 29 test_small_start_dynamic_partial # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 63
ok 32 test_small_start_assigned_dynamic_partial # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 63
ok 67 test_small_start_static_partial # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 63
ok 70 test_small_start_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 56
ok 73 test_small_start_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 56
ok 82 test_small_start_assigned_static_partial # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 63
ok 85 test_small_start_assigned_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 56
ok 88 test_small_start_assigned_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 56
The above all now pass again with -fzero-init-padding-bits=all added.
This also fixes the following cases for struct initialization that had
been XFAIL until now because there was no compiler support beyond the
larger "-ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero" option:
ok 38 test_small_hole_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 3
ok 39 test_big_hole_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 124
ok 40 test_trailing_hole_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 7
ok 42 test_small_hole_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 3
ok 43 test_big_hole_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 124
ok 44 test_trailing_hole_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 7
ok 58 test_small_hole_assigned_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 3
ok 59 test_big_hole_assigned_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 124
ok 60 test_trailing_hole_assigned_static_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 7
ok 62 test_small_hole_assigned_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 3
ok 63 test_big_hole_assigned_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 124
ok 64 test_trailing_hole_assigned_dynamic_all # SKIP XFAIL uninit bytes: 7
All of the above now pass when built under GCC 15. Tests can be seen
with:
./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run stackinit --arch=x86_64 \
--make_option CC=gcc-15
Clang continues to fully initialize these kinds of variables[3] without
additional flags.

Most 'make *config' commands use .config as the base configuration file.
When .config does not exist, Kconfig tries to load a file listed in
KCONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST instead.
However, since commit b75b0a819a ("kconfig: change defconfig_list
option to environment variable"), warning messages have displayed an
incorrect file name in such cases.
Below is a demonstration using Debian Trixie. While loading
/boot/config-6.12.9-amd64, the warning messages incorrectly show .config
as the file name.
With this commit, the correct file name is displayed in warnings.

A longstanding issue with genksyms is that it has hidden syntax errors.
For example, genksyms fails to parse the following valid code:
int x, __attribute__((__section__(".init.data")))y;
Here, only 'y' is annotated by the attribute, although I am not aware
of actual uses of this pattern in the kernel tree.
When a syntax error occurs, yyerror() is called. However,
error_with_pos() is a no-op unless the -w option is provided.
You can observe syntax errors by manually passing the -w option.
