Most processes do not use Rust Binder with epoll, so avoid paying the
synchronize_rcu() cost in drop for those that don't need it. For those
that do, we also manage to replace synchronize_rcu() with kfree_rcu(),
though we introduce an extra allocation.
In case the last ref to an Arc<Thread> is dropped outside of
deferred_release(), this also ensures that synchronize_rcu() is not
called in destructor of Arc<Thread> in other places. Theoretically that
could lead to jank by making other syscalls slow, which would be
problematic.

The Android Binder driver supports a netlink API that reports
transaction *failures* to a userspace daemon. This allows devices to
monitor processes with many failed transactions so that it can e.g. kill
misbehaving apps.
One very important thing that this monitors is when many oneway messages
are sent to a frozen process, so there is special handling to ensure
this scenario is surfaced over netlink.

This adds dynamic debug logs for:
- Releasing active transactions during thread stack unwinding.
- Discarded transaction error codes when a thread exits.
- Undelivered transaction acknowledgments (TRANSACTION_COMPLETE)
upon thread exit.
- Undelivered process death and freeze notifications when processes
exit or die.
- Undelivered transactions canceled due to target process death.
We now store the process PID in `ThreadError`, `DeliverCode`, and
`FreezeMessage` to ensure the correct PID is logged on cancellation.
This is necessary because `cancel()` runs from background `kworkers`,
which would otherwise print the wrong PID.

Implement a dynamic debug logging mask (`debug_mask`) for the
`rust_binder` module to allow dynamic runtime configuration of log
levels. This enables parity with the legacy C driver's debug mask.
Since the Rust `module!` macro in the current kernel build does not
yet support declaring module parameters directly in Rust, we define
the `debug_mask` variable in Rust as an `Atomic<u32>` exported via
FFI using `#[no_mangle]`, and link to it as `extern` in a C companion
file to expose it to the kernel runtime.
To verify the setup, instrument process lifecycle events (open, flush,
and release) in `process.rs` under the new `BINDER_DEBUG_OPEN_CLOSE`
logging mask. These entry-point events are chosen for initial validation
because they represent the start of the Binder lifecycle and occur
at low frequency, allowing simple runtime verification of the dynamic
toggle without log noise.

Unfortunately the current use of a mutex for this lock leads to priority
inversion. Traces have been observed where a process is trying to obtain
this mutex for 22ms, but it's unable to do so because the thread holding
the lock is scheduled out. Since this occurred on a UI thread, that is
an extremely long delay.

The insert_or_update_handle() function currently has two places where it
drops objects under the node_refs lock. In preparation for changing
node_refs into a spinlock, update the code to either entirely remove the
codepath or drop the node_refs lock first before running the destructor.
This also has the side-benefit that we avoid traversing the by_node
rbtree twice. Currently it's first traversed to see if the new node is
present, and then traversed again to insert it. By saving the
VacantEntry from the first lookup, we can perform the insertion without
traversing the tree again.

In preparation for changing the node_refs lock to a spinlock, move the
cleanup of NodeRefInfo in update_ref() so that it occurs without the
node_refs lock held. This avoids dropping an Arc<Node> with the lock
held. Furthermore, the NodeDeath field is kept in the NodeRefInfo to be
dropped outside the lock as well.
The removal from the rbtree is updated to use remove_node(), which keeps
the rbtree node allocation until after node_refs is unlocked as well.
This is not strictly necessary as it just moves a kfree() outside the
lock, but there's no reason to invoke the kfree() under the lock if we
can easily avoid it, so avoid it.

Generally userspace is supposed to explicitly clear freeze listeners
before they drop the refcount on the node ref to zero, but there's
nothing forcing that. Currently, in this scenario the freeze listener
remains in the freeze_listeners rbtree and in the remote node's freeze
listener list, even though the ref for which the listener is registered
is gone. This could potentially lead to a memory leak due to a refcount
cycle. Thus, remove the freeze listener in this scenario.

Before Rust 1.29.0, Clippy introduced the `cast_lossless` lint [1]:
> Rust's `as` keyword will perform many kinds of conversions, including
> silently lossy conversions. Conversion functions such as `i32::from`
> will only perform lossless conversions. Using the conversion functions
> prevents conversions from becoming silently lossy if the input types
> ever change, and makes it clear for people reading the code that the
> conversion is lossless.
While this does not eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such
conversions easier to scrutinize. It also has the slight benefit of
removing a degree of freedom on which to bikeshed. Thus apply the
changes and enable the lint in the Binder Rust driver -- no functional
change intended.

In Rust 1.63.0, Clippy introduced the `as_underscore` lint [1]:
> The conversion might include lossy conversion or a dangerous cast that
> might go undetected due to the type being inferred.
>
> The lint is allowed by default as using `_` is less wordy than always
> specifying the type.
Always specifying the type is especially helpful in function call
contexts where the inferred type may change at a distance. Specifying
the type also allows Clippy to spot more cases of `useless_conversion`.
Several inferred conversions from `binder_uintptr_t` to the driver's
internal `u64` node identifiers are identity conversions. Although the
UAPI header retains `BINDER_IPC_32BIT` for userspace building against
older kernels, commit 1190b4e38f ("ANDROID: binder: remove 32-bit
binder interface.") removed kernel support for selecting that protocol.
Rust Binder therefore uses the 64-bit Binder protocol on every supported
architecture.
While this does not eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such
conversions easier to scrutinize. It also has the slight benefit of
removing a degree of freedom on which to bikeshed. Thus apply the
changes and enable the lint in the Binder Rust driver -- no functional

Rust binder resolved handle 0 to the context manager node, but it does not
reject the case where the caller owns the same node.
The C binder driver rejects transactions from the context-manager process
to handle 0 after resolving the target node. Match that behavior in Rust
Binder by rejecting handle 0 transactions when the resolved context-manager
node is owned by the calling process.
This applies to both synchronous and oneway transactions because both paths
resolve the target through Process::get_transaction_node().

Allocation's Drop walks the offsets array (binder_size_t = u64 entries),
cleaning up the objects, but it used usize instead of u64 for both the
stride and the per-entry read.
On 64-bit kernels (usize == u64) this is harmless, but on 32-bit kernels
it walks the 8-byte entries in 4-byte steps, iterating an N-entry array
2N times, and reads the always-zero high word as offset 0, cleaning up
the object at offset 0 N extra times. As a result the referenced node or
handle ends up with a lower reference count than it actually has (a
refcount over-decrement), and binder's reference accounting is corrupted;
for example, the owner can be notified of a strong reference release
(BR_RELEASE) even though references still remain.
Change the stride to u64, and read each entry as a u64, narrowing it to
usize with try_into().
On 32-bit ARM, when this over-decrement would drive a count below zero,
the driver's existing refcount guard refuses it and fires:
rust_binder: Failure: refcount underflow!

When a thread exits, binder_thread_release() walks its transaction stack
to clear the t->from and t->to_proc that correspond with the exiting

of these transactions. And if one of them has no associated t->to_proc,
the t->to_proc->inner_lock will not be acquired.

binder_transaction() bounds the scatter-gather buffer area with
sg_buf_end_offset and subtracts the aligned LSM context size because
the secctx is written at the tail of that area. The subtraction reads
lsmctx.len, but that field has already been cleared by the time the
line runs:
security_secid_to_secctx(secid, &lsmctx) /* lsmctx.len set */
lsmctx_aligned_size = ALIGN(lsmctx.len, sizeof(u64))
extra_buffers_size += lsmctx_aligned_size
...
security_release_secctx(&lsmctx) /* memset zeroes len */
...
sg_buf_end_offset = sg_buf_offset + extra_buffers_size
- ALIGN(lsmctx.len, sizeof(u64)) /* ALIGN(0,8) */
security_release_secctx() does memset(cp, 0, sizeof(*cp)), so lsmctx.len
reads back as 0 and the subtraction contributes nothing, leaving
sg_buf_end_offset too large by the aligned secctx size on every
transaction to a txn_security_ctx node.
Each BINDER_TYPE_PTR object then derives buf_left = sg_buf_end_offset -
sg_buf_offset as the sole upper bound on its copy, so the inflated end
offset lets the copy run into the bytes that already hold the secctx.
The aligned size must therefore be cached before release rather than
re-read from the now-cleared field. Fix by caching it in
lsmctx_aligned_size at function scope when it is first computed and
subtracting lsmctx_aligned_size instead of re-reading lsmctx.len after
release. Reuse the same value for the earlier buf_offset computation.

In 6c37bebd8c, we switched to looping over the list and dropping each
individual node, ostensibly without the lock held in the loop body.
If the kernel were using Rust Edition 2024, the comment would be
accurate, and the lock would not be held across the drop. However, the
kernel is currently using 2021, so tail expression lifetime extension
results in the lock being held across the drop. Explicitly binding the
expression result to a variable makes the lockguard no longer part of a
tail expression, causing the lock to be dropped before entering the loop
body.
This was detected via `CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING` identifying an invalid wait

When an outdated transaction is removed from `oneway_todo` due to
`TF_UPDATE_TXN`, its `Allocation` is dropped. The current implementation
of `Allocation::drop` calls `pending_oneway_finished()`, assuming the
transaction was executed. This leads to premature execution of the next
queued one-way transaction.
Fix this by taking the `oneway_node` from the `Allocation` of the
outdated transaction before it is dropped. This prevents
`Allocation::drop` from signaling completion.
We do not call `take_oneway_node()` from `Transaction::cancel` because
it's actually correct to call `pending_oneway_finished()` on cancel if
the transaction did not come from `oneway_todo`. This ensures that if
`BINDER_THREAD_EXIT` is invoked and cancels a oneway transaction, then
the next transaction is taken from `oneway_todo`.
This bug does not lead to any issues in the kernel, but may lead to
Binder delivering transactions to userspace earlier than userspace
expected to receive them.

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Bump the minimum Rust version to 1.85.0 (and 'bindgen' to 0.71.1).
As proposed in LPC 2025 and the Maintainers Summit [1], we are
going to follow Debian Stable's Rust versions as our minimum
versions.
Debian Trixie was released on 2025-08-09 with a Rust 1.85.0 and
'bindgen' 0.71.1 toolchain, which is a fair amount of time for e.g.
kernel developers to upgrade.
Other major distributions support a Rust version that is high
enough as well, including:
+ Arch Linux.
+ Fedora Linux.
+ Gentoo Linux.
+ Nix.
+ openSUSE Slowroll and openSUSE Tumbleweed.
+ Ubuntu 25.10 and 26.04 LTS. In addition, 24.04 LTS using
their versioned packages.
The merged patch series comes with the associated cleanups and
simplifications treewide that can be performed thanks to both
bumps, as well as documentation updates.
In addition, start using 'bindgen''s '--with-attribute-custom-enum'
feature to set the 'cfi_encoding' attribute for the 'lru_status'
enum used in Binder.
Link: https://lwn.net/Articles/1050174/ [1]
- Add experimental Kconfig option ('CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS') that
inlines C helpers into Rust.
Essentially, it performs a step similar to LTO, but just for the
helpers, i.e. very local and fast.
It relies on 'llvm-link' and its '--internalize' flag, and requires
a compatible LLVM between Clang and 'rustc' (i.e. same major
version, 'CONFIG_RUSTC_CLANG_LLVM_COMPATIBLE'). It is only enabled
for two architectures for now.
The result is a measurable speedup in different workloads that
different users have tested. For instance, for the null block
driver, it amounts to a 2%.
- Support global per-version flags.
While we already have per-version flags in many places, we didn't
have a place to set global ones that depend on the compiler
version, i.e. in 'rust_common_flags', which sometimes is needed to
e.g. tweak the lints set per version.
Use that to allow the 'clippy::precedence' lint for Rust < 1.86.0,
since it had a change in behavior.
- Support overriding the crate name and apply it to Rust Binder,
which wanted the module to be called 'rust_binder'.
- Add the remaining '__rust_helper' annotations (started in the
previous cycle).
'kernel' crate:
- Introduce the 'const_assert!' macro: a more powerful version of
'static_assert!' that can refer to generics inside functions or
implementation bodies, e.g.:
fn f<const N: usize>() {
const_assert!(N > 1);
}
fn g<T>() {
const_assert!(size_of::<T>() > 0, "T cannot be ZST");
}
In addition, reorganize our set of build-time assertion macros
('{build,const,static_assert}!') to live in the 'build_assert'
module.
Finally, improve the docs as well to clarify how these are
different from one another and how to pick the right one to use,
and their equivalence (if any) to the existing C ones for extra
clarity.
- 'sizes' module: add 'SizeConstants' trait.
This gives us typed 'SZ_*' constants (avoiding casts) for use in
device address spaces where the address width depends on the
hardware (e.g. 32-bit MMIO windows, 64-bit GPU framebuffers, etc.),
e.g.:
let gpu_heap = 14 * u64::SZ_1M;
let mmio_window = u32::SZ_16M;
- 'clk' module: implement 'Send' and 'Sync' for 'Clk' and thus
simplify the users in Tyr and PWM.
- 'ptr' module: add 'const_align_up'.
- 'str' module: improve the documentation of the 'c_str!' macro to
explain that one should only use it for non-literal cases (for the
other case we instead use C string literals, e.g. 'c"abc"').
- Disallow the use of 'CStr::{as_ptr,from_ptr}' and clean one such
use in the 'task' module.
- 'sync' module: finish the move of 'ARef' and 'AlwaysRefCounted'
outside of the 'types' module, i.e. update the last remaining
instances and finally remove the re-exports.
- 'error' module: clarify that 'from_err_ptr' can return 'Ok(NULL)',
including runtime-tested examples.
The intention is to hopefully prevent UB that assumes the result of
the function is not 'NULL' if successful. This originated from a
case of UB I noticed in 'regulator' that created a 'NonNull' on it.
Timekeeping:
- Expand the example section in the 'HrTimer' documentation.
- Mark the 'ClockSource' trait as unsafe to ensure valid values for
'ktime_get()'.
- Add 'Delta::from_nanos()'.
'pin-init' crate:
- Replace the 'Zeroable' impls for 'Option<NonZero*>' with impls of
'ZeroableOption' for 'NonZero*'.
- Improve feature gate handling for unstable features.
- Declutter the documentation of implementations of 'Zeroable' for
tuples.
- Replace uses of 'addr_of[_mut]!' with '&raw [mut]'.
rust-analyzer:
- Add type annotations to 'generate_rust_analyzer.py'.
- Add support for scripts written in Rust ('generate_rust_target.rs',
'rustdoc_test_builder.rs', 'rustdoc_test_gen.rs').
- Refactor 'generate_rust_analyzer.py' to explicitly identify host
and target crates, improve readability, and reduce duplication.
And some other fixes, cleanups and improvements"

Pull timekeeping updates from Andreas Hindborg:
- Expand the example section in the 'HrTimer' documentation.
- Mark the 'ClockSource' trait as unsafe to ensure valid values for
'ktime_get()'.
- Add 'Delta::from_nanos()'.
This is a back merge since the pull request has a newer base -- we will
avoid that in the future.
And, given it is a back merge, it happens to resolve the "subtle" conflict
around '--remap-path-{prefix,scope}' that I discussed in linux-next [1],
plus a few other common conflicts. The result matches what we did for
next-20260407.

rust/time: Add Delta::from_nanos()
By default bindgen will convert 'enum lru_status' into a typedef for an
integer. For the most part, an integer of the same size as the enum
results in the correct ABI, but in the specific case of CFI, that is not
the case. The CFI encoding is supposed to be the same as a struct called
'lru_status' rather than the name of the underlying native integer type.
To fix this, tell bindgen to generate a newtype and set the CFI type
explicitly. Note that we need to set the CFI attribute explicitly as
bindgen is using repr(transparent), which is otherwise identical to the
inner type for ABI purposes.
This allows us to remove the page range helper C function in Binder
without risking a CFI failure when list_lru_walk calls the provided
function pointer.
The --with-attribute-custom-enum argument requires bindgen v0.71 or
greater.
[ In particular, the feature was added in 0.71.0 [1][2].
In addition, `feature(cfi_encoding)` has been available since
Rust 1.71.0 [3].

My testing procedure was to add this to the android17-6.18 branch and
verify that rust_shrink_free_page is successfully called without crash,
and verify that it does in fact crash when the cfi_encoding is set to
other values. Note that I couldn't test this on android16-6.12 as that
branch uses a bindgen version that is too old.
