Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
"Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including:
- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following
a warning that was added in 6.2
- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to,
hopefully, make it more useful
- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly
with __counted_by annotations
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent
structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the
delightful consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs
build. A sustained effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has
addressed almost all of those, bringing the documentation back into
sync with the code. The fixes are going through the appropriate
maintainer trees
- Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic
links to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations
easy to access
- Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese
... plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes"

"Another routine one in terms of features. In terms of lines, this time
the 'alloc' version upgrade is less prominent, given that it was
fairly small (and we did not have two upgrades)
Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Upgrade to Rust 1.74.1
The patch release includes a fix for an ICE that the Apple AGX GPU
driver was hitting
- Support 'srctree'-relative links in Rust code documentation
- Automate part of the manual constants handling (i.e. the ones not
recognised by 'bindgen')
- Suppress searching builtin sysroot to avoid confusion with
installed sysroots, needed for the to-be-merged arm64 support which
uses a builtin target
- Ignore '__preserve_most' functions for 'bindgen'
- Reduce header inclusion bloat in exports
'kernel' crate:
- Implement 'Debug' for 'CString'
- Make 'CondVar::wait()' an uninterruptible wait
'macros' crate:
- Update 'paste!' to accept string literals

Documentation:
- Add testing section (KUnit and 'rusttest' target)
- Remove 'CC=clang' mentions

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)
Misc:
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
which we have specs
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool
Driver API:
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write

While the script correctly extracts UTF-8 encoded names from the
MAINTAINERS file, the regular expressions damage my name when parsing
from .yaml files. Fix this by replacing the Latin-1-compatible regular
expressions with the unicode property matcher \p{L}, which matches on
any letter according to the Unicode General Category of letters.
The proposed solution only works if the script uses proper string
encoding from the outset, so instruct Perl to unconditionally open all
files with UTF-8 encoding. This should be safe, as the entire source
tree is either UTF-8 or ASCII encoded anyway. See [1] for a detailed
analysis.
Furthermore, to prevent the \w expression from matching non-ASCII when
checking for whether a name should be escaped with quotes, add the /a
flag to the regular expression. The escaping logic was duplicated in
two places, so it has been factored out into its own function.
The original issue was also identified on the tools mailing list [2].
This should solve the observed side effects there as well.

When the kernel log is acquired over a serial cable it is not uncommon for
the log to contain carriage return characters, in addition to the expected
line feeds.
When this output is feed into decode_stacktrace.sh, handle_line() fails to
strip the trailing ']' off the module name, which results in find_module()
not being able to find the referred to kernel module. This is reported to
the user as:
WARNING! Modules path isn't set, but is needed to parse this symbol
The solution is to reconfigure the serial port, or to strip the carriage
returns from the log, but this isn't obvious from the error reported by
the script.
Instead, make decode_stacktrace.sh more user friendly by stripping the
trailing carriage return.

According to Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst, checkstack does
not point out problems explicitly, but any one function that uses more
than 512 bytes on the stack is a candidate for change, hence it is better
to omit any stack frame sizes smaller than 512 bytes, just change
min_stack to 512 by default.

For some unknown reason the regular expression for checkstack only matches
three digit numbers starting with the number "3", or any higher number.
Which means that it skips any stack sizes smaller than 304 bytes. This
makes the checkstack script a bit less useful than it could be.
Change the script to match any number. To be filtered out stack sizes can
be configured with the min_stack variable, which omits any stack frame
sizes smaller than 100 bytes by default.
This is similar with commit aab1f809d7 ("scripts/checkstack.pl: match
all stack sizes for s390").

gen_compile_commands.py: fix path resolve with symlinks in it
MAINTAINERS: Add scripts/clang-tools to Kbuild section
linux/export: Fix alignment for 64-bit ksymtab entries
When a path contains relative symbolic links, os.path.abspath() might
not follow the symlinks and instead return the absolute path with just
the relative paths resolved, resulting in an incorrect path.
1. Say "drivers/hdf/" has some symlinks:
# ls -l drivers/hdf/

drwxrwxr-x 2 ... 4096 ... evdev
lrwxrwxrwx 1 ... 44 ... framework -> ../../../../../../drivers/hdf_core/framework

-rw-r--r-- 1 ... 74 ... Makefile
drwxrwxr-x 3 ... 4096 ... wifi
2. One .cmd file records that:
# head -1 ./framework/core/manager/src/.devmgr_service.o.cmd

/path/to/src/drivers/hdf/khdf/manager/../../../../framework/core/manager/src/devmgr_service.c

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.73.0 to 1.74.1
(i.e. the latest) [1].
See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").
# Unstable features
No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized.
Therefore, the only unstable features allowed to be used outside the
`kernel` crate are still `new_uninit,offset_of`, though other code to
be upstreamed may increase the list (e.g. `offset_of` was added recently).
Please see [3] for details.
# Other improvements
Rust 1.74.0 allows to use `#[repr(Rust)]` explicitly [4], which can be
useful to be explicit about particular cases that would normally use
e.g. the C representation, such as silencing lints like the upcoming
additions we requested [5] to the `no_mangle_with_rust_abi` Clippy lint
(which in turn triggered the `#[repr(Rust)]` addition).
Rust 1.74.0 includes a fix for one of the false negative cases we reported
in Clippy's `disallowed_macros` lint [6] that we would like to use in
the future.
Rust 1.74.1 fixes an ICE that the Apple AGX GPU driver was hitting [7].
# Required changes
For this upgrade, no changes were required (i.e. on our side).
# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing
The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded
at once.
There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates
needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer
infallible APIs coming from upstream.
Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative
approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and
the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only,
especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match
the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream.
Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in
the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot
potentially unintended changes to our additions.
To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following
to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream
Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after
applying this patch:
# Get the difference with respect to the old version.
git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
cut -d/ -f3- |
grep -Fv README.md |
xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch
git -C linux restore rust/alloc
# Apply this patch.
git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch
# Get the difference with respect to the new version.
git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
cut -d/ -f3- |
grep -Fv README.md |
xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch
git -C linux restore rust/alloc
Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first
approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second
approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

kernel-doc appeared to ignore __counted_by, but appearances can be
deceiving; it caused member names to not be recognized, which manifested as
a number of spurious "Excess struct member" warnings. Filter that
attribute out and reduce the warning onslaught slightly.
Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
The warning for Excess struct or union member description was
removed when the $nested parameter of check_sections() was removed.
This causes some kernel-doc notation warnings to be missed.
Recently the kernel test robot somehow reported an Excess member. The
code in kernel-doc has not issued that warning since kernel v4.16, so I
don't know how the robot did it. (See the Link for the report.)
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/fw/dbg.c:86: warning: Excess struct/union/enum/typedef member 'trans_len' description in 'iwl_fw_dump_ptrs'
I patched that warning away even though I could not reproduce the
warning from kernel-doc. The warning should be issued for extraneous
struct member or union member description, so restore it.

Commit 31abfdda65 (docs: Deprecate use of Sphinx < 2.4.x) in 6.2 added a
warning that support for older versions of Sphinx would be going away.
There have been no complaints, so the time has come. Raise the minimum
Sphinx version to 2.4.4 and clean out some compatibility code that we no
longer need.

Add some warnings for using ethtool_sprintf() where a simple
ethtool_puts() would suffice.
The two cases are:
1) Use ethtool_sprintf() with just two arguments:
| ethtool_sprintf(&data, driver[i].name);
or
2) Use ethtool_sprintf() with a standalone "%s" fmt string:
| ethtool_sprintf(&data, "%s", driver[i].name);
The former may cause -Wformat-security warnings while the latter is just
not preferred. Both are safely in the category of warnings, not errors.

All addresses printed by checkstack have an extra incorrect 0 appended at
the end.
This was introduced with commit 677f1410e0 ("scripts/checkstack.pl: don't
display $dre as different entity"): since then the address is taken from
the line which contains the function name, instead of the line which
contains stack consumption. E.g. on s390:
0000000000100a30 <do_one_initcall>:
...
100a44: e3 f0 ff 70 ff 71 lay %r15,-144(%r15)
So the used regex which matches spaces and hexadecimal numbers to extract
an address now matches a different substring. Subsequently replacing spaces
with 0 appends a zero at the and, instead of replacing leading spaces.
Fix this by using the proper regex, and simplify the code a bit.

Set up build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes of
organized structs.
Warning includes:
1) whether all variables are still in the same cache group
2) whether all the cache groups have the sum of the members size (in the
maximum condition, including all members defined in configs)
The __cache_group* variables are ignored in kernel-doc check in the
various header files they appear in to enforce the cache groups.

For some unknown reason the regular expression for checkstack only matches
three digit numbers starting with the number "3", or any higher
number. Which means that it skips any stack sizes smaller than 304
bytes. This makes the checkstack script a bit less useful than it could be.
Change the script to match any number. To be filtered out stack sizes
can be configured with the min_stack variable, which omits any stack
frame sizes smaller than 100 bytes by default.
