In some cases it is useful to be able to pass additional flags to the
make_fit.py script. For example, since ramdisks are typically large,
passing -E to use external data can be helpful.
Add a new FIT_EXTRA_ARGS variable for this.

FIT (Flat Image Tree) allows a ramdisk to be included in each
configuration. Add support for this to the script.
This feature is not available via 'make image.fit' since the ramdisk
likely needs to be built separately anyway, e.g. using modules from
the kernel build. Future work may provide support for doing that.
Note that the uncompressed size is not correct when a ramdisk is used,
since it is too expensive to decompress the ramdisk.

The kernel is likely at least 16MB so we may as well use that as a step
size when reallocating space for the FIT in memory. Pack the FIT at the
end, so there is no wasted space.
This reduces the time to pack by an order of magnitude, or so.

Allow ML-DSA module signing to be enabled.
Note that OpenSSL's CMS_*() function suite does not, as of OpenSSL-3.6,
support the use of CMS_NOATTR with ML-DSA, so the prohibition against using
signedAttrs with module signing has to be removed. The selected digest
then applies only to the algorithm used to calculate the digest stored in
the messageDigest attribute. The OpenSSL development branch has patches
applied that fix this[1], but it appears that that will only be available
in OpenSSL-4.
[1] https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/28923
sign-file won't set CMS_NOATTR if openssl is earlier than v4, resulting in
the use of signed attributes.
The ML-DSA algorithm takes the raw data to be signed without regard to what
digest algorithm is specified in the CMS message. The CMS specified digest
algorithm is ignored unless signedAttrs are used; in such a case, only
SHA512 is permitted.

Rather than including it in install-extmod-build, just skip running

UAPI headers are not supposed to leak references to kconfig symbols.
These won't be set when building userspace. Hide the kconfig reference
behind 'if defined(__KERNEL__)', so it will be stripped by
headers_install.sh. The result for userspace will be the same, but the
exceptions in headers_install.sh can also be removed.

UAPI headers are not supposed to leak references to kconfig symbols.
They are undefined there in any case. As all actual definitions of this
header are guarded behind a kconfig symbol, for userspace the header is
always identical to its asm-generic variant.
Make the custom UAPI header a kernel-internal one, so the leaks of
kconfig symbols are fixed and userspace will instead use
asm-generic/swab.h directly.

Some special sections specify their ELF section entsize, for example:
.pushsection section, "M", @progbits, 8
The entsize (8 in this example) is needed by objtool klp-diff for
extracting individual entries.
Clang assembler versions older than 20 silently ignore the above
construct and set entsize to 0, resulting in the following error:
.discard.annotate_data: missing special section entsize or annotations
Add a klp-build check to prevent the use of Clang assembler versions
prior to 20.

Currently, cacheline group macros trigger checkpatch warnings.

WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
#267: FILE: include/net/sock.h:431:

+ __cacheline_group_end(sock_read_rx);
But these are not actually statements - the following macros
all expand to zero-length fields:
__cacheline_group_begin()
__cacheline_group_end()
__cacheline_group_begin_aligned()
__cacheline_group_end_aligned()
__dma_from_device_group_begin()

Currently, modules.builtin.modinfo is created with executable permissions
(0755). This is because after commit 39cfd5b121 ("kbuild: extract
modules.builtin.modinfo from vmlinux.unstripped"), modules.builtin.modinfo
is extracted from vmlinux.unstripped using objcopy. When extracting
sections, objcopy inherits attributes from the source ELF file.
Since modules.builtin.modinfo is a data file and not an executable,
it should have regular file permissions (0644). The executable bit
can trigger warnings in Debian's Lintian tool.
Explicitly remove the executable bit after generation.

Commit a7c699d090 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg: build a debuginfo RPM") adjusted
the __spec_install_post macro to include __os_install_post, which runs
brp-strip. This ends up stripping module signatures, breaking loading
modules with lockdown enabled.
Undo most of the changes of the aforementioned debuginfo patch and
mirror commit 16c36f8864 ("kbuild: deb-pkg: use build ID instead of

equivalent debuginfo package while avoiding touching the modules after
they have already been signed during modules_install.

Added:
- '&'static mut MaybeUninit<T>' now implements 'InPlaceWrite'. This
enables users to use external allocation mechanisms such as
'static_cell'.
- Gary Guo as a Maintainer.
Changed:
- Rewrote all proc-macros ('[pin_]init!', '#[pin_data]',
'#[pinned_drop]', 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)'), using 'syn' with better
diagnostics.
- 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)' now support tuple structs.
- '[pin_]init!' now supports attributes on fields (such as
'#[cfg(...)]').
- Add a '#[default_error(<type>)]' attribute to '[pin_]init!' to
override the default error (when no '? Error' is specified).
- Support packed struct in '[pin_]init!' with
'#[disable_initialized_field_access]'.
Removed:
- 'try_[pin_]init!' have been removed in favor of merging their feature
with '[pin_]init!'. The kernel's own 'try_[pin_]init!' macros have
been updated to use the 'default_error' attribute.
Fixed:
- Corrected 'T: Sized' bounds to 'T: ?Sized' in the generated

When building a patch to a single-file kernel module with
CONFIG_MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL enabled, the klp-build module link fails in
modpost:
Diffing objects
drivers/md/raid0.o: changed function: raid0_run
Building patch module: livepatch-0001-patch-raid0_run.ko
drivers/md/raid0.c: No such file or directory
...
The problem here is that klp-build copied drivers/md/.raid0.o.cmd to the
module build directory, but it didn't also copy over the input source
file listed in the .cmd file:
source_drivers/md/raid0.o := drivers/md/raid0.c
So modpost dies due to the missing .c file which is needed for
calculating checksums for CONFIG_MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL.
Instead of copying the original .cmd file, just create an empty one.
Modpost only requires that it exists. The original object's build
dependencies are irrelevant for the frankenobjects used by klp-build.

- Fix a crash with passing a stacktrace between synthetic events
A synthetic event is an event that combines two events into a single event
that can display fields from both events as well as the time delta that
took place between the events. It can also pass a stacktrace from the
first event so that it can be displayed by the synthetic event (this is
useful to get a stacktrace of a task scheduling out when blocked and
recording the time it was blocked for).
A synthetic event can also connect an existing synthetic event to another
event. An issue was found that if the first synthetic event had a stacktrace
as one of its fields, and that stacktrace field was passed to the new
synthetic event to be displayed, it would crash the kernel. This was due to
the stacktrace not being saved as a stacktrace but was still marked as one.
When the stacktrace was read, it would try to read an array but instead read
the integer metadata of the stacktrace and dereferenced a bad value.
Fix this by saving the stacktrace field as a stracktrace.
- Fix possible overflow in cmp_mod_entry() compare function
A binary search is used to find a module address and if the addresses are
greater than 2GB apart it could lead to truncation and cause a bad search
result. Use normal compares instead of a subtraction between addresses to
calculate the compare value.
- Fix output of entry arguments in function graph tracer
Depending on the configurations enabled, the entry can be two different
types that hold the argument array. The macro FGRAPH_ENTRY_ARGS() is used
to find the correct arguments from the given type. One location was missed
and still referenced the arguments directly via entry->args and could
produce the wrong value depending on how the kernel was configured.
- Fix memory leak in scripts/tracepoint-update build tool
If the array fails to allocate, the memory for the values needs to be
freed and was not. Free the allocated values if the array failed to
allocate.

When realloc() fails in add_string(), the function returns -1 but leaves

leaks in callers like make_trace_array() that return on error without
freeing the partially built array.
Fix this by freeing *vals and setting it to NULL when realloc() fails.

merge_config.sh shell/sed/grep loop scales poorly and is slow.
With Yocto genericarm64 kernel and around 190 config fragments
the script takes more than 20 minutes to run on a fast build machine.
Re-implementation with awk does the same job in 10 seconds.
Using awk since it is likely available in the build environments
and using perl, python etc would introduce more complex runtime
dependencies. awk is good enough and lot better than shell/sed/grep.
Output stays the same but changed execution time means that
parallel job output may be ordered differently.

When the kallsyms relative base was introduced, per-CPU variable
references on x86_64 SMP were implemented as offsets into the respective
per-CPU region, rather than offsets relative to the location of the
variable's template in the kernel image, which is how other
architectures implement it.
This required kallsyms to reason about the difference between the two,
and the sign of the value in the kallsyms_offsets[] array was used to
distinguish them. This meant that negative offsets were not permitted
for ordinary variables, and so it was crucial that the relative base was
chosen such that all offsets were positive numbers.
This is no longer needed: instead, the offsets can simply be encoded as
values in the range -/+ 2 GiB, which is precisely what PC32 relocations
provide on most architectures. So it is possible to simplify the logic,
and just use _text as the anchor directly, and let the linker calculate
the final value based on the location of the entry itself.
Some architectures (nios2, extensa) do not support place-relative
relocations at all, but these are all 32-bit and non-relocatable, and so
there is no need for place-relative relocations in the first place, and
the actual symbol values can just be stored directly.
This makes all entries in the kallsyms_offsets[] array visible as
place-relative references in the ELF metadata, which will be important
when implementing ELF-based fg-kaslr.

Provide a new syscall which has the only purpose to yield the CPU after the
kernel granted a time slice extension.
sched_yield() is not suitable for that because it unconditionally
schedules, but the end of the time slice extension is not required to
schedule when the task was already preempted. This also allows to have a
strict check for termination to catch user space invoking random syscalls

`rustfmt` is configured via the `.rustfmt.toml` file in the source tree,
and we apply `rustfmt` to the macro expanded sources generated by the
`.rsi` target.
However, under an `O=` pointing to an external folder (i.e. not just
a subdir), `rustfmt` will not find the file when checking the parent
folders. Since the edition is configured in this file, this can lead to
errors when it encounters newer syntax, e.g.
error: expected one of `!`, `.`, `::`, `;`, `?`, `where`, `{`, or an operator, found `"rust_minimal"`

A workaround is to use `RUSTFMT=n`, which is documented in the `Makefile`

One solution would be to pass `--edition`, but we want `rustfmt` to

The recent changes to get_unaligned() resulted in a new sparse warning:
net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: sparse: incorrect type in argument 1 (different modifiers) @@ expected void * @@ got restricted __be64 const * @@
net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: expected void *
net/rds/ib_cm.c:96:35: sparse: got restricted __be64 const *
The updated get_unaligned_t() uses __unqual_scalar_typeof() to get an
unqualified type. This works correctly for the compilers, but fails for
sparse when the data type is __be64 (or any other __beNN variant).
On sparse runs (C=[12]) __beNN types are annotated with
__attribute__((bitwise)).
That annotation allows sparse to detect incompatible operations on __beNN
variables, but it also prevents sparse from evaluating the _Generic() in
__unqual_scalar_typeof() and map __beNN to a unqualified scalar type, so it
ends up with the default, i.e. the original qualified type of a 'const
__beNN' pointer. That then ends up as the first pointer argument to
builtin_memcpy(), which obviously causes the above sparse warnings.
The sparse git tree supports typeof_unqual() now, which allows to use it
instead of the _Generic() based __unqual_scalar_typeof(). With that sparse
correctly evaluates the unqualified type and keeps the __beNN logic intact.
The downside is that this requires a top of tree sparse build and an old
sparse version will emit a metric ton of incomprehensible error messages
before it dies with a segfault.
Therefore implement a sanity check which validates that the checker is
available and capable of handling typeof_unqual(). Emit a warning if not so
the user can take informed action.

`syn` makes parsing Rust from proc-macros a lot simpler. `pin-init` has
not used `syn` up until now, because the we did not support it. That
changed in commit 54e3eae855 ("Merge patch series "`syn` support""),
so we can finally utilize the added ergonomics of parsing proc-macro
input with `syn`.
Previously we only had the `proc-macro` library available, whereas the
user-space version also used `proc-macro2` and `quote`. Now both are
available, so remove the workarounds.
Due to these changes, clippy emits warnings about unnecessary
`.to_string()` as `proc-macro2` provides an additional `PartialEq` impl
on `Ident`, so the warnings are fixed.

After commit 600605853f ("scripts/gen-btf.sh: Fix .btf.o generation
when compiling for RISCV"), there is an error from llvm-objcopy when
CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is enabled:
llvm-objcopy: error: '.tmp_vmlinux1.btf.o': The file was not recognized as a valid object file
Failed to generate BTF for vmlinux
KBUILD_CFLAGS includes CC_FLAGS_LTO, which makes clang emit an LLVM IR
object, rather than an ELF one as expected by llvm-objcopy.
Most areas of the kernel deal with this by filtering out CC_FLAGS_LTO
from KBUILD_CFLAGS for the particular object or directory but this is
not so easy to do in bash. Just include '-fno-lto' after KBUILD_CFLAGS
to ensure an ELF object is consistently created as the initial .o file.
Additionally, while there is no reported or discovered bug yet, the
absence of KBUILD_CPPFLAGS from this command could result in incorrect
endianness because KBUILD_CPPFLAGS typically contains '-mbig-endian' and
'-mlittle-endian' so that biendian toolchains can be used. Include it in
this ${CC} command to hopefully limit necessary changes to this command
for the foreseeable future.

Extend the "depends on" syntax to support conditional dependencies
using "depends on X if Y". While functionally equivalent to "depends
on X || (Y == n)", "depends on X if Y" is much more readable and
makes the kconfig language uniform in supporting the "if <expr>"
suffix.
This also improves readability for "optional" dependencies, which
are the subset of conditional dependencies where X is Y.
Previously such optional dependencies had to be expressed as
the counterintuitive "depends on X || !X", now this can be
represented as "depends on X if X".
The change is implemented by converting the "X if Y" syntax into the
"X || (Y == n)" syntax during "depends on" token processing.

W=2 builds are heavily polluted by the -Wtype-limits warning.
Here are some W=12 statistics on Linux v6.19-rc1 for an x86_64
defconfig (with just CONFIG_WERROR set to "n") using gcc 14.3.1:
Warning name count percent
-------------------------------------------------
-Wlogical-op 2 0.00 %
-Wmaybe-uninitialized 138 0.20 %
-Wunused-macros 869 1.24 %
-Wmissing-field-initializers 1418 2.02 %
-Wshadow 2234 3.19 %
-Wtype-limits 65378 93.35 %
-------------------------------------------------
Total 70039 100.00 %
As we can see, -Wtype-limits represents the vast majority of all
warnings. The reason behind this is that these warnings appear in
some common header files, meaning that some unique warnings are
repeated tens of thousands of times (once per header inclusion).
Add to this the fact that each warning is coupled with a dozen lines
detailing some macro expansion. The end result is that the W=2 output
is just too bloated and painful to use.
Three years ago, I proposed in [1] modifying one such header to
silence that noise. Because the code was not faulty, Linus rejected
the idea and instead suggested simply removing that warning.
At that time, I could not bring myself to send such a patch because,
despite its problems, -Wtype-limits would still catch the below bug:
unsigned int ret;
ret = check();
if (ret < 0)
error();
Meanwhile, based on another suggestion from Linus, I added a new check
to sparse [2] that would catch the above bug without the useless spam.
With this, remove gcc's -Wtype-limits. People who still want to catch
incorrect comparisons between unsigned integers and zero can now use
sparse instead.
On a side note, clang also has a -Wtype-limits warning but:
* it is not enabled in the kernel at the moment because, contrary to
gcc, clang did not include it under -Wextra.
* it does not warn if the code results from a macro expansion. So,
if activated, it would not cause as much spam as gcc does.
* -Wtype-limits is split into four sub-warnings [3] meaning that if
it were to be activated, we could select which one to keep.
So there is no present need to explicitly disable -Wtype-limits in
clang.

While we can opt in individual subsystems which add the required
annotations, such subsystems inevitably include headers from other
subsystems which may not yet have the right annotations, which then
result in false positive warnings.
Making compatible by adding annotations across all common headers
currently requires an excessive number of __no_context_analysis
annotations, or carefully analyzing non-trivial cases to add the correct
annotations. While this is desirable long-term, providing an incremental
path causes less churn and headaches for maintainers not yet interested
in dealing with such warnings.
Rather than clutter headers unnecessary and mandate all subsystem
maintainers to keep their headers working with context analysis,
suppress all -Wthread-safety warnings in headers. Explicitly opt in
headers with context-enabled primitives.
With this in place, we can start enabling the analysis on more complex
subsystems in subsequent changes.

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.

Recent changes in BTF generation [1] rely on ${OBJCOPY} command to
update .BTF_ids section data in target ELF files.
This exposed a bug in llvm-objcopy --update-section code path, that
may lead to corruption of a target ELF file. Specifically, because of
the bug st_shndx of some symbols may be (incorrectly) set to 0xffff
(SHN_XINDEX) [2][3].
While there is a pending fix for LLVM, it'll take some time before it
lands (likely in 22.x). And the kernel build must keep working with
older LLVM toolchains in the foreseeable future.
Using GNU objcopy for .BTF_ids update would work, but it would require
changes to LLVM-based build process, likely breaking existing build
environments as discussed in [2].
To work around llvm-objcopy bug, implement --patch_btfids code path in
resolve_btfids as a drop-in replacement for:
${OBJCOPY} --update-section .BTF_ids=${btf_ids} ${elf}
Which works specifically for .BTF_ids section:
${RESOLVE_BTFIDS} --patch_btfids ${btf_ids} ${elf}
This feature in resolve_btfids can be removed at some point in the
future, when llvm-objcopy with a relevant bugfix becomes common.

Before the mentioned commit, one could copy a dts file to e.g.
arch/arm64/boot/dts/ (or a new subdirectory) and then convert it to a dtb
file using:
make ARCH=arm64 foo.dtb
In this scenario, both 'dtb-y' and 'dtb-' are empty, and the inclusion of
scripts/Makefile.dtbs relies on 'targets' to contain the MAKECMDGOALS. The
value of 'targets', however, is only final later in the code.
Move the conditional include of scripts/Makefile.dtbs down to where the
value of 'targets' is final. Since Makefile.dtbs updates 'always-y' which is
used as a prerequisite in the build rule, the build rule also needs to move
down.

only with SHA-1. Since SHA-1 support for module signing has been removed,
drop the use of the OpenSSL PKCS7 API by the tool in favor of using only
the newer CMS API.
The use of the PKCS7 API is selected by the following:
#if defined(LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER) || \
OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER < 0x10000000L || \
defined(OPENSSL_NO_CMS)
#define USE_PKCS7
#endif
Looking at the individual ifdefs:
* LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER: LibreSSL added the CMS API implementation from
OpenSSL in 3.1.0, making the ifdef no longer relevant. This version was
released on April 8, 2020.
* OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER < 0x10000000L: OpenSSL 1.0.0 was released on March
29, 2010. Supporting earlier versions should no longer be necessary. The
file Documentation/process/changes.rst already states that at least
version 1.0.0 is required to build the kernel.
* OPENSSL_NO_CMS: OpenSSL can be configured with "no-cms" to disable CMS
support. In this case, sign-file will no longer be usable. The CMS API
support is now required.
In practice, since distributions now typically sign modules with SHA-2, for
which sign-file already required CMS API support, removing the USE_PKCS7
code shouldn't cause any issues.

Enhance the coccicheck script to filter *.cocci files based on the
specified MODE (e.g., report, patch). This ensures that only compatible
semantic patch files are executed, preventing errors such as:
"virtual rule report not supported"
This error occurs when a .cocci file does not define a 'virtual <MODE>'
rule, yet is executed in that mode.
For example:
make coccicheck M=drivers/hwtracing/coresight/ MODE=report
In this case, running "secs_to_jiffies.cocci" would trigger the error
because it lacks support for 'report' mode. With this change, such files
are skipped automatically, improving robustness and developer
experience.

Add a top-level target for building gen_init_cpio to prevent re-entering
kbuild for 'modules-cpio-pkg'.
The recently introduced target 'modules-cpio-pkg' depends on
gen_init_cpio but there is no simple way to add this dependency as a
prerequisite that can be built in parallel to other recipes.
Introducing the top-level target, enables fixing this and also prepares
a possible move of gen_init_cpio from usr/ to scripts/.

Replace deprecated gdk_pixbuf_new_from_xpm_data() with gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file()
and update both GTK and QT frontends to load XPM icons from separate files
in scripts/kconfig/icons/ instead of from the code.
xpm_menu_inv and xpm_void were removed and not converted into xpm files
because they are not used since commit 64285dc5c4 ("kconfig: gconf:
inline fill_row() into set_node()").
This eliminates the GTK deprecation warnings at compile time and
improves memory usage and code organization.

[nathan: Minor commit message clean ups]
Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>
Currently resolve_btfids updates .BTF_ids section of an ELF file
in-place, based on the contents of provided BTF, usually within the
same input file, and optionally a BTF base.
Change resolve_btfids behavior to enable BTF transformations as part
of its main operation. To achieve this, in-place ELF write in
resolve_btfids is replaced with generation of the following binaries:
* ${1}.BTF with .BTF section data
* ${1}.BTF_ids with .BTF_ids section data if it existed in ${1}
* ${1}.BTF.base with .BTF.base section data for out-of-tree modules
The execution of resolve_btfids and consumption of its output is
orchestrated by scripts/gen-btf.sh introduced in this patch.
The motivation for emitting binary data is that it allows simplifying
resolve_btfids implementation by delegating ELF update to the $OBJCOPY
tool [1], which is already widely used across the codebase.
There are two distinct paths for BTF generation and resolve_btfids
application in the kernel build: for vmlinux and for kernel modules.
For the vmlinux binary a .BTF section is added in a roundabout way to
ensure correct linking. The patch doesn't change this approach, only
the implementation is a little different.
Before this patch it worked as follows:
* pahole consumed .tmp_vmlinux1 [2] and added .BTF section with
llvm-objcopy [3] to it
* then everything except the .BTF section was stripped from .tmp_vmlinux1
into a .tmp_vmlinux1.bpf.o object [2], later linked into vmlinux
* resolve_btfids was executed later on vmlinux.unstripped [4],
updating it in-place
After this patch gen-btf.sh implements the following:
* pahole consumes .tmp_vmlinux1 and produces a *detached* file with
raw BTF data
* resolve_btfids consumes .tmp_vmlinux1 and detached BTF to produce
(potentially modified) .BTF, and .BTF_ids sections data
* a .tmp_vmlinux1.bpf.o object is then produced with objcopy copying
BTF output of resolve_btfids
* .BTF_ids data gets embedded into vmlinux.unstripped in
link-vmlinux.sh by objcopy --update-section
For kernel modules, creating a special .bpf.o file is not necessary,
and so embedding of sections data produced by resolve_btfids is
straightforward with objcopy.
With this patch an ELF file becomes effectively read-only within
resolve_btfids, which allows deleting elf_update() call and satellite
code (like compressed_section_fix [5]).
Endianness handling of .BTF_ids data is also changed. Previously the
"flags" part of the section was bswapped in sets_patch() [6], and then
Elf_Type was modified before elf_update() to signal to libelf that
bswap may be necessary. With this patch we explicitly bswap entire
data buffer on load and on dump.

Several symbol patterns used to be whitelisted to allow drivers to refer
to functions annotated with __devinit and __devexit, which have since
been removed.
Commit e1dc1bfe5b ("modpost: remove more symbol patterns from the
section check whitelist") removed most of these patterns but left
'*_probe' after a reported warning in an irqchip driver.
Turns out that was indeed an incorrect reference which has now been
fixed by commit 9b685058ca ("irqchip/qcom-irq-combiner: Fix section
mismatch").
A recently added clocksource driver also relies on this suffix to
suppress another valid warning, and that is being fixed separately. [1]
Note that drivers with valid reasons for suppressing the warnings can
use the __ref macros.

make[3]: *** [/work/git/test-linux.git/scripts/Makefile.modfinal:62: arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko] Error 1
The reason is that the module only uses the tracepoints defined and
exported by the main kvm module. The tracepoint-update.c code fails the
build if a tracepoint is used, but there's no tracepoints defined. But
this is acceptable in modules if the tracepoints are defined in the vmlinux
proper or another module and exported.
Do not fail to build if a tracepoint is used but no tracepoints are
defined if the code is a module. This should still never happen for the
vmlinux itself.

Merge tag 'objtool-urgent-2025-12-06' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull objtool fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"Address various objtool scalability bugs/inefficiencies exposed by
allmodconfig builds, plus improve the quality of alternatives
instructions generated code and disassembly"
* tag 'objtool-urgent-2025-12-06' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
objtool: Simplify .annotate_insn code generation output some more
objtool: Add more robust signal error handling, detect and warn about stack overflows
objtool: Remove newlines and tabs from annotation macros
objtool: Consolidate annotation macros
x86/asm: Remove ANNOTATE_DATA_SPECIAL usage
x86/alternative: Remove ANNOTATE_DATA_SPECIAL usage
objtool: Fix stack overflow in validate_branch()
If a tracepoint is defined but never used (TRACE_EVENT() created but no
trace_<tracepoint>() called), it can take up to or more than 5K of memory
each. This can add up as there are around a hundred unused tracepoints with
various configs. That is 500K of wasted memory.
Add a make build parameter of "UT=1" to have the build warn if an unused
tracepoint is detected in the build. This allows detection of unused
tracepoints to be upstream so that outreachy and the mentoring project can
have new developers look for fixing them, without having these warnings
suddenly show up when someone upgrades their kernel. When all known unused
tracepoints are removed, then the "UT=1" build parameter can be removed and
unused tracepoints will always warn. This will catch new unused tracepoints
after the current ones have been removed.
- Separate out elf functions from sorttable.c
Move out the ELF parsing functions from sorttable.c so that the tracing
tooling can use it.
- Add a tracepoint verifier tool to the build process
If "UT=1" is added to the kernel command line, any unused tracepoints will
trigger a warning at build time.
- Do not warn about unused tracepoints for tracepoints that are exported
There are sever cases where a tracepoint is created by the kernel and used
by modules. Since there's no easy way to detect if these are truly unused
since the users are in modules, if a tracepoint is exported, assume it
will eventually be used by a module. Note, there's not many exported
tracepoints so this should not be a problem to ignore them.
- Have building of modules also detect unused tracepoints
Do not only check the main vmlinux for unused tracepoints, also check
modules. If a module is defining a tracepoint it should be using it.
- Add the tracepoint-update program to the ignore file
The new tracepoint-update program needs to be ignored by git.
