Merge tag 'rust-7.2' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ojeda/linux
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"

kbuild: distributed build support for Clang ThinLTO
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.

kbuild: rust: add AutoFDO support
This patch enables AutoFDO build support for Rust code within the Linux kernel. This allows Rust code to be profiled and optimized based on the profile. The RUSTFLAGS variable was suffixed with *_AUTOFDO_CLANG to match the naming of the config option, which is called CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG. This implementation has been verified in Android, first by inspecting the object files and confirming that they look correct. After that, it was verified as below: 1. Running the binderAddInts benchmark [1] with Rust Binder built as rust_binder.ko module, using a Pixel 9 Pro. 2. Collecting a profile on a Pixel 10 Pro XL using the app-launch benchmark, which starts different apps many times, on a device with Rust Binder as a built-in kernel module. (C Binder was not present on the device.) 3. Using the collected profile, run the binderAddInts benchmark again with Rust Binder built both as a rust_binder.ko module, and as a built-in kernel module. 4. In both cases, Rust Binder without AutoFDO was approximately 13% slower than the AutoFDO optimized version. Built-in vs .ko did not make a measurable performance difference. All of the above was verified in conjunction with my helpers inlining series [2], which confirmed that this worked correctly for helpers too once [3] was fixed in the helpers inlining series.

objtool: Grow __cfi_* prefix symbols for all CFI+CALL_PADDING
For all CONFIG_CFI+CONFIG_CALL_PADDING configs, for C functions, the __cfi_ symbols only cover the 5-byte kCFI type hash. After that there also N bytes of NOP padding between the hash and the function entry which aren't associated with any symbol. The NOPs can be replaced with actual code at runtime. Without a symbol, unwinders and tooling have no way of knowing where those bytes belong. Grow the existing __cfi_* symbols to fill that gap. Note that assembly functions with SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START() aren't affected by this issue, their __cfi_ symbols also cover the padding. Also, CONFIG_PREFIX_SYMBOLS has no reason to exist: CONFIG_CALL_PADDING is what causes the compiler to emit NOP padding before function entry (via -fpatchable-function-entry), so it's the right condition for creating prefix symbols. Remove CONFIG_PREFIX_SYMBOLS, as it's no longer needed. Simplify the LONGEST_SYM_KUNIT_TEST dependency accordingly. Rework objtool's arguments a bit to handle the variety of prefix/cfi-related cases.

compiler-context-analysis: Add infrastructure for Context Analysis with Clang
Context Analysis is a language extension, which enables statically checking that required contexts are active (or inactive), by acquiring and releasing user-definable "context locks". An obvious application is lock-safety checking for the kernel's various synchronization primitives (each of which represents a "context lock"), and checking that locking rules are not violated. Clang originally called the feature "Thread Safety Analysis" [1]. This was later changed and the feature became more flexible, gaining the ability to define custom "capabilities". Its foundations can be found in "Capability Systems" [2], used to specify the permissibility of operations to depend on some "capability" being held (or not held). Because the feature is not just able to express "capabilities" related to synchronization primitives, and "capability" is already overloaded in the kernel, the naming chosen for the kernel departs from Clang's "Thread Safety" and "capability" nomenclature; we refer to the feature as "Context Analysis" to avoid confusion. The internal implementation still makes references to Clang's terminology in a few places, such as `-Wthread-safety` being the warning option that also still appears in diagnostic messages. [1] https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ThreadSafetyAnalysis.html [2] https://www.cs.cornell.edu/talc/papers/capabilities.pdf See more details in the kernel-doc documentation added in this and subsequent changes.

livepatch/klp-build: Introduce klp-build script for generating livepatch modules
Add a klp-build script which automates the generation of a livepatch
module from a source .patch file by performing the following steps:
- Builds an original kernel with -function-sections and
-fdata-sections, plus objtool function checksumming.
- Applies the .patch file and rebuilds the kernel using the same
options.
- Runs 'objtool klp diff' to detect changed functions and generate
intermediate binary diff objects.
- Builds a kernel module which links the diff objects with some
livepatch module init code (scripts/livepatch/init.c).
- Finalizes the livepatch module (aka work around linker wreckage)
using 'objtool klp post-link'.

kcov: rust: add flags for KCOV with Rust
Rust code is currently not instrumented properly when KCOV is enabled. Thus, add the relevant flags to perform instrumentation correctly. This is necessary for efficient fuzzing of Rust code. The sanitizer-coverage features of LLVM have existed for long enough that they are available on any LLVM version supported by rustc, so we do not need any Kconfig feature detection. The coverage level is set to 3, as that is the level needed by trace-pc. We do not instrument `core` since when we fuzz the kernel, we are looking for bugs in the kernel, not the Rust stdlib.

kbuild: move kbuild syntax processing to scripts/Makefile.build
scripts/Makefile.lib is included by the following Makefiles: scripts/Makefile.build scripts/Makefile.modfinal scripts/Makefile.package scripts/Makefile.vmlinux scripts/Makefile.vmlinux_o However, the last four do not need to process Kbuild syntax such as obj-*, lib-*, subdir-*, etc. Move the relevant code to scripts/Makefile.build.

gcc-plugins: Force full rebuild when plugins change
There was no dependency between the plugins changing and the rest of the kernel being built. This could cause strange behaviors as instrumentation could vary between targets depending on when they were built. Generate a new header file, gcc-plugins.h, any time the GCC plugins change. Include the header file in compiler-version.h when its associated feature name, GCC_PLUGINS, is defined. This will be picked up by fixdep and force rebuilds where needed. Add a generic "touch" kbuild command, which will be used again in a following patch. Add a "normalize_path" string helper to make the "TOUCH" output less ugly.

objtool: Reduce CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR verbosity
Remove the following from CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR: * backtrace * "upgraded warnings to errors" message * cmdline args This makes the default output less cluttered and makes it easier to spot the actual warnings. Note the above options are still are available with --verbose or OBJTOOL_VERBOSE=1. Also, do the cmdline arg printing on all warnings, regardless of werror.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar: - The biggest change is the new option to automatically fail the build on objtool warnings: CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR. While there are no currently known unfixed false positives left, such an expansion in the severity of objtool warnings inevitably creates a risk of build failures, so it's disabled by default and depends on !COMPILE_TEST, so it shouldn't be enabled on allyesconfig/allmodconfig builds and won't be forced on people who just accept build-time defaults in 'make oldconfig'. While the option is strongly recommended, only people who enable it explicitly should see it.

objtool: Add CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR
Objtool warnings can be indicative of crashes, broken live patching, or even boot failures. Ignoring them is not recommended. Add CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR to upgrade objtool warnings to errors by enabling the objtool --Werror option. Also set --backtrace to print the branches leading up to the warning, which can help considerably when debugging certain warnings. To avoid breaking bots too badly for now, make it the default for real world builds only (!COMPILE_TEST).

kbuild: Create intermediate vmlinux build with relocations preserved
The imperative paradigm used to build vmlinux, extract some info from it or perform some checks on it, and subsequently modify it again goes against the declarative paradigm that is usually employed for defining make rules. In particular, the Makefile.postlink files that consume their input via an output rule result in some dodgy logic in the decompressor makefiles for RISC-V and x86, given that the vmlinux.relocs input file needed to generate the arch-specific relocation tables may not exist or be out of date, but cannot be constructed using the ordinary Make dependency based rules, because the info needs to be extracted while vmlinux is in its ephemeral, non-stripped form. So instead, for architectures that require the static relocations that are emitted into vmlinux when passing --emit-relocs to the linker, and are subsequently stripped out again, introduce an intermediate vmlinux target called vmlinux.unstripped, and organize the reset of the build logic accordingly: - vmlinux.unstripped is created only once, and not updated again - build rules under arch/*/boot can depend on vmlinux.unstripped without running the risk of the data disappearing or being out of date - the final vmlinux generated by the build is not bloated with static relocations that are never needed again after the build completes.
