git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ojeda/linux Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "Toolchain and infrastructure: - Add support for 'syn'. Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a syntax tree of Rust source code. Currently this library is geared toward use in Rust procedural macros, but contains some APIs that may be useful more generally. 'syn' allows us to greatly simplify writing complex macros such as 'pin-init' (Benno has already prepared the 'syn'-based version). We will use it in the 'macros' crate too. 'syn' is the most downloaded Rust crate (according to crates.io), and it is also used by the Rust compiler itself. While the amount of code is substantial, there should not be many updates needed for these crates, and even if there are, they should not be too big, e.g. +7k -3k lines across the 3 crates in the last year. 'syn' requires two smaller dependencies: 'quote' and 'proc-macro2'. I only modified their code to remove a third dependency ('unicode-ident') and to add the SPDX identifiers. The code can be easily verified to exactly match upstream with the provided scripts. They are all licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", like the other vendored 'alloc' crate we had for a while. Please see the merge commit with the cover letter for more context. - Allow 'unreachable_pub' and 'clippy::disallowed_names' for doctests. Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to do things like show public items and use names such as 'foo'. Nevertheless, we still try to keep examples as close to real code as possible (this is part of why running Clippy on doctests is important for us, e.g. for safety comments, which userspace Rust does not support yet but we are stricter). 'kernel' crate: - Replace our custom 'CStr' type with 'core::ffi::CStr'. Using the standard library type reduces our custom code footprint, and we retain needed custom functionality through an extension trait and a new 'fmt!' macro which replaces the previous 'core' import. This started in 6.17 and continued in 6.18, and we finally land the replacement now. This required quite some stamina from Tamir, who split the changes in steps to prepare for the flag day change here. - Replace 'kernel::c_str!' with C string literals. C string literals were added in Rust 1.77, which produce '&CStr's (the 'core' one), so now we can write: c"hi" instead of: c_str!("hi") - Add 'num' module for numerical features. It includes the 'Integer' trait, implemented for all primitive integer types. It also includes the 'Bounded' integer wrapping type: an integer value that requires only the 'N' least significant bits of the wrapped type to be encoded: // An unsigned 8-bit integer, of which only the 4 LSBs are used. let v = Bounded::<u8, 4>::new::<15>(); assert_eq!(v.get(), 15); 'Bounded' is useful to e.g. enforce guarantees when working with bitfields that have an arbitrary number of bits. Values can also be constructed from simple non-constant expressions or, for more complex ones, validated at runtime. 'Bounded' also comes with comparison and arithmetic operations (with both their backing type and other 'Bounded's with a compatible backing type), casts to change the backing type, extending/shrinking and infallible/fallible conversions from/to primitives as applicable. - 'rbtree' module: add immutable cursor ('Cursor'). It enables to use just an immutable tree reference where appropriate. The existing fully-featured mutable cursor is renamed to 'CursorMut'. kallsyms: - Fix wrong "big" kernel symbol type read from procfs. 'pin-init' crate: - A couple minor fixes (Benno asked me to pick these patches up for him this cycle). Documentation: - Quick Start guide: add Debian 13 (Trixie). Debian Stable is now able to build Linux, since Debian 13 (released 2025-08-09) packages Rust 1.85.0, which is recent enough. We are planning to propose that the minimum supported Rust version in Linux follows Debian Stable releases, with Debian 13 being the first one we upgrade to, i.e. Rust 1.85. MAINTAINERS: - Add entry for the new 'num' module. - Remove Alex as Rust maintainer: he hasn't had the time to contribute for a few years now, so it is a no-op change in practice. And a few other cleanups and improvements" * tag 'rust-6.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ojeda/linux: (53 commits) rust: macros: support `proc-macro2`, `quote` and `syn` rust: syn: enable support in kbuild rust: syn: add `README.md` rust: syn: remove `unicode-ident` dependency rust: syn: add SPDX License Identifiers rust: syn: import crate rust: quote: enable support in kbuild rust: quote: add `README.md` rust: quote: add SPDX License Identifiers rust: quote: import crate rust: proc-macro2: enable support in kbuild rust: proc-macro2: add `README.md` rust: proc-macro2: remove `unicode_ident` dependency rust: proc-macro2: add SPDX License Identifiers rust: proc-macro2: import crate rust: kbuild: support using libraries in `rustc_procmacro` rust: kbuild: support skipping flags in `rustc_test_library` rust: kbuild: add proc macro library support rust: kbuild: simplify `--cfg` handling rust: kbuild: introduce `core-flags` and `core-skip_flags` ...

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "This has been another busy cycle for documentation, with a lot of build-system thrashing. That work should slow down from here on out. - The various scripts and tools for documentation were spread out in several directories; now they are (almost) all coalesced under tools/docs/. The holdout is the kernel-doc script, which cannot be easily moved without some further thought. - As the amount of Python code increases, we are accumulating modules that are imported by multiple programs. These modules have been pulled together under tools/lib/python/ -- at least, for documentation-related programs. There is other Python code in the tree that might eventually want to move toward this organization. - The Perl kernel-doc.pl script has been removed. It is no longer used by default, and nobody has missed it, least of all anybody who actually had to look at it. - The docs build was controlled by a complex mess of makefilese that few dared to touch. Mauro has moved that logic into a new program (tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper) that, with any luck at all, will be far easier to understand and maintain. - The get_feat.pl program, used to access information under Documentation/features/, has been rewritten in Python, bringing an end to the use of Perl in the docs subsystem. - The top-level README file has been reorganized into a more reader-friendly presentation. - A lot of Chinese translation additions - Typo fixes and documentation updates as usual" * tag 'docs-6.19' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (164 commits) docs: makefile: move rustdoc check to the build wrapper README: restructure with role-based documentation and guidelines docs: kdoc: various fixes for grammar, spelling, punctuation docs: kdoc_parser: use '@' for Excess enum value docs: submitting-patches: Clarify that removal of Acks needs explanation too docs: kdoc_parser: add data/function attributes to ignore docs: MAINTAINERS: update Mauro's files/paths docs/zh_CN: Add wd719x.rst translation docs/zh_CN: Add libsas.rst translation get_feat.pl: remove it, as it got replaced by get_feat.py Documentation/sphinx/kernel_feat.py: use class directly tools/docs/get_feat.py: convert get_feat.pl to Python Documentation/admin-guide: fix typo and comment in cscope example docs/zh_CN: Add data-integrity.rst translation docs/zh_CN: Add blk-mq.rst translation docs/zh_CN: Add block/index.rst translation docs/zh_CN: Update the Chinese translation of kbuild.rst docs: bring some order to our Python module hierarchy docs: Move the python libraries to tools/lib/python Documentation/kernel-parameters: Move the kernel build options ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers: "This is the main crypto library pull request for 6.19. It includes: - Add SHA-3 support to lib/crypto/, including support for both the hash functions and the extendable-output functions. Reimplement the existing SHA-3 crypto_shash support on top of the library. This is motivated mainly by the upcoming support for the ML-DSA signature algorithm, which needs the SHAKE128 and SHAKE256 functions. But even on its own it's a useful cleanup. This also fixes the longstanding issue where the architecture-optimized SHA-3 code was disabled by default. - Add BLAKE2b support to lib/crypto/, and reimplement the existing BLAKE2b crypto_shash support on top of the library. This is motivated mainly by btrfs, which supports BLAKE2b checksums. With this change, all btrfs checksum algorithms now have library APIs. btrfs is planned to start just using the library directly. This refactor also improves consistency between the BLAKE2b code and BLAKE2s code. And as usual, it also fixes the issue where the architecture-optimized BLAKE2b code was disabled by default. - Add POLYVAL support to lib/crypto/, replacing the existing POLYVAL support in crypto_shash. Reimplement HCTR2 on top of the library. This simplifies the code and improves HCTR2 performance. As usual, it also makes the architecture-optimized code be enabled by default. The generic implementation of POLYVAL is greatly improved as well. - Clean up the BLAKE2s code - Add FIPS self-tests for SHA-1, SHA-2, and SHA-3" * tag 'libcrypto-updates-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux: (37 commits) fscrypt: Drop obsolete recommendation to enable optimized POLYVAL crypto: polyval - Remove the polyval crypto_shash crypto: hctr2 - Convert to use POLYVAL library lib/crypto: x86/polyval: Migrate optimized code into library lib/crypto: arm64/polyval: Migrate optimized code into library lib/crypto: polyval: Add POLYVAL library crypto: polyval - Rename conflicting functions lib/crypto: x86/blake2s: Use vpternlogd for 3-input XORs lib/crypto: x86/blake2s: Avoid writing back unchanged 'f' value lib/crypto: x86/blake2s: Improve readability lib/crypto: x86/blake2s: Use local labels for data lib/crypto: x86/blake2s: Drop check for nblocks == 0 lib/crypto: x86/blake2s: Fix 32-bit arg treated as 64-bit lib/crypto: arm, arm64: Drop filenames from file comments lib/crypto: arm/blake2s: Fix some comments crypto: s390/sha3 - Remove superseded SHA-3 code crypto: sha3 - Reimplement using library API crypto: jitterentropy - Use default sha3 implementation lib/crypto: s390/sha3: Add optimized one-shot SHA-3 digest functions lib/crypto: sha3: Support arch overrides of one-shot digest functions ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar: - klp-build livepatch module generation (Josh Poimboeuf) Introduce new objtool features and a klp-build script to generate livepatch modules using a source .patch as input. This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to generate livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a complete rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of maintaining kpatch. Key improvements compared to kpatch-build: - Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow graph analysis to help detect changed functions. - Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar. - Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code. - Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft. - Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc inclusion and special section extraction. - Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script which injects #line directives into the source .patch to preserve the original line numbers at compile time. - Disassemble code with libopcodes instead of running objdump (Alexandre Chartre) - Disassemble support (-d option to objtool) by Alexandre Chartre, which supports the decoding of various Linux kernel code generation specials such as alternatives: 17ef: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x62f mov 0x34(%r9),%edx 17f3: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x633 | <alternative.17f3> | X86_FEATURE_POPCNT 17f3: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x633 | call 0x17f8 <__sw_hweight64> | popcnt %rdi,%rax 17f8: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x638 cmp %eax,%edx ... jump table alternatives: 1895: sched_use_asym_prio+0x5 test $0x8,%ch 1898: sched_use_asym_prio+0x8 je 0x18a9 <sched_use_asym_prio+0x19> 189a: sched_use_asym_prio+0xa | <jump_table.189a> | JUMP 189a: sched_use_asym_prio+0xa | jmp 0x18ae <sched_use_asym_prio+0x1e> | nop2 189c: sched_use_asym_prio+0xc mov $0x1,%eax 18a1: sched_use_asym_prio+0x11 and $0x80,%ecx ... exception table alternatives: native_read_msr: 5b80: native_read_msr+0x0 mov %edi,%ecx 5b82: native_read_msr+0x2 | <ex_table.5b82> | EXCEPTION 5b82: native_read_msr+0x2 | rdmsr | resume at 0x5b84 <native_read_msr+0x4> 5b84: native_read_msr+0x4 shl $0x20,%rdx .... x86 feature flag decoding (also see the X86_FEATURE_POPCNT example in sched_balance_find_dst_group() above): 2faaf: start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x1f jne 0x2fba4 <start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x114> 2fab5: start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x25 | <alternative.2fab5> | X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS | X86_BUG_NULL_SEG 2fab5: start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x25 | jmp 0x2faba <.altinstr_aux+0x2f4> | jmp 0x4b0 <start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x3f> | nop5 2faba: start_thread_common.constprop.0+0x2a mov $0x2b,%eax ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull namespace updates from Christian Brauner: "This contains substantial namespace infrastructure changes including a new system call, active reference counting, and extensive header cleanups. The branch depends on the shared kbuild branch for -fms-extensions support. Features: - listns() system call Add a new listns() system call that allows userspace to iterate through namespaces in the system. This provides a programmatic interface to discover and inspect namespaces, addressing longstanding limitations: Currently, there is no direct way for userspace to enumerate namespaces. Applications must resort to scanning /proc/*/ns/ across all processes, which is: - Inefficient - requires iterating over all processes - Incomplete - misses namespaces not attached to any running process but kept alive by file descriptors, bind mounts, or parent references - Permission-heavy - requires access to /proc for many processes - No ordering or ownership information - No filtering per namespace type The listns() system call solves these problems: ssize_t listns(const struct ns_id_req *req, u64 *ns_ids, size_t nr_ns_ids, unsigned int flags); struct ns_id_req { __u32 size; __u32 spare; __u64 ns_id; struct /* listns */ { __u32 ns_type; __u32 spare2; __u64 user_ns_id; }; }; Features include: - Pagination support for large namespace sets - Filtering by namespace type (MNT_NS, NET_NS, USER_NS, etc.) - Filtering by owning user namespace - Permission checks respecting namespace isolation - Active Reference Counting Introduce an active reference count that tracks namespace visibility to userspace. A namespace is visible in the following cases: - The namespace is in use by a task - The namespace is persisted through a VFS object (namespace file descriptor or bind-mount) - The namespace is a hierarchical type and is the parent of child namespaces The active reference count does not regulate lifetime (that's still done by the normal reference count) - it only regulates visibility to namespace file handles and listns(). This prevents resurrection of namespaces that are pinned only for internal kernel reasons (e.g., user namespaces held by file->f_cred, lazy TLB references on idle CPUs, etc.) which should not be accessible via (1)-(3). - Unified Namespace Tree Introduce a unified tree structure for all namespaces with: - Fixed IDs assigned to initial namespaces - Lookup based solely on inode number - Maintained list of owned namespaces per user namespace - Simplified rbtree comparison helpers Cleanups - Header Reorganization: - Move namespace types into separate header (ns_common_types.h) - Decouple nstree from ns_common header - Move nstree types into separate header - Switch to new ns_tree_{node,root} structures with helper functions - Use guards for ns_tree_lock - Initial Namespace Reference Count Optimization - Make all reference counts on initial namespaces a nop to avoid pointless cacheline ping-pong for namespaces that can never go away - Drop custom reference count initialization for initial namespaces - Add NS_COMMON_INIT() macro and use it for all namespaces - pid: rely on common reference count behavior - Miscellaneous Cleanups - Rename exit_task_namespaces() to exit_nsproxy_namespaces() - Rename is_initial_namespace() and make argument const - Use boolean to indicate anonymous mount namespace - Simplify owner list iteration in nstree - nsfs: raise SB_I_NODEV, SB_I_NOEXEC, and DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly - nsfs: use inode_just_drop() - pidfs: raise DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly - pidfs: simplify PIDFD_GET__NAMESPACE ioctls - libfs: allow to specify s_d_flags - cgroup: add cgroup namespace to tree after owner is set - nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces() Fixes: - setns(pidfd, ...) race condition Fix a subtle race when using pidfds with setns(). When the target task exits after prepare_nsset() but before commit_nsset(), the namespace's active reference count might have been dropped. If setns() then installs the namespaces, it would bump the active reference count from zero without taking the required reference on the owner namespace, leading to underflow when later decremented. The fix resurrects the ownership chain if necessary - if the caller succeeded in grabbing passive references, the setns() should succeed even if the target task exits or gets reaped. - Return EFAULT on put_user() error instead of success - Make sure references are dropped outside of RCU lock (some namespaces like mount namespace sleep when putting the last reference) - Don't skip active reference count initialization for network namespace - Add asserts for active refcount underflow - Add asserts for initial namespace reference counts (both passive and active) - ipc: enable is_ns_init_id() assertions - Fix kernel-doc comments for internal nstree functions - Selftests - 15 active reference count tests - 9 listns() functionality tests - 7 listns() permission tests - 12 inactive namespace resurrection tests - 3 threaded active reference count tests - commit_creds() active reference tests - Pagination and stress tests - EFAULT handling test - nsid tests fixes" * tag 'namespace-6.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (103 commits) pidfs: simplify PIDFD_GET_<type>_NAMESPACE ioctls nstree: fix kernel-doc comments for internal functions nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces() selftests/namespaces: fix nsid tests ns: drop custom reference count initialization for initial namespaces pid: rely on common reference count behavior ns: add asserts for initial namespace active reference counts ns: add asserts for initial namespace reference counts ns: make all reference counts on initial namespace a nop ipc: enable is_ns_init_id() assertions fs: use boolean to indicate anonymous mount namespace ns: rename is_initial_namespace() ns: make is_initial_namespace() argument const nstree: use guards for ns_tree_lock nstree: simplify owner list iteration nstree: switch to new structures nstree: add helper to operate on struct ns_tree_{node,root} nstree: move nstree types into separate header nstree: decouple from ns_common header ns: move namespace types into separate header ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner: "Features: - Cheaper MAY_EXEC handling for path lookup. This elides MAY_WRITE permission checks during path lookup and adds the IOP_FASTPERM_MAY_EXEC flag so filesystems like btrfs can avoid expensive permission work. - Hide dentry_cache behind runtime const machinery. - Add German Maglione as virtiofs co-maintainer. Cleanups: - Tidy up and inline step_into() and walk_component() for improved code generation. - Re-enable IOCB_NOWAIT writes to files. This refactors file timestamp update logic, fixing a layering bypass in btrfs when updating timestamps on device files and improving FMODE_NOCMTIME handling in VFS now that nfsd started using it. - Path lookup optimizations extracting slowpaths into dedicated routines and adding branch prediction hints for mntput_no_expire(), fd_install(), lookup_slow(), and various other hot paths. - Enable clang's -fms-extensions flag, requiring a JFS rename to avoid conflicts. - Remove spurious exports in fs/file_attr.c. - Stop duplicating union pipe_index declaration.

2025-11-11gendwarfksyms: Skip files with no exportsSami Tolvanen3-3/+6
Starting with Rust 1.91.0 (released 2025-10-30), in upstream commit ab91a63d403b ("Ignore intrinsic calls in cross-crate-inlining cost model") [1][2], `bindings.o` stops containing DWARF debug information because the `Default` implementations contained `write_bytes()` calls which are now ignored in that cost model (note that `CLIPPY=1` does not reproduce it). This means `gendwarfksyms` complains: RUSTC L rust/bindings.o error: gendwarfksyms: process_module: dwarf_get_units failed: no debugging information? There are several alternatives that would work here: conditionally skipping in the cases needed (but that is subtle and brittle), forcing DWARF generation with e.g. a dummy `static` (ugly and we may need to do it in several crates), skipping the call to the tool in the Kbuild command when there are no exports (fine) or teaching the tool to do so itself (simple and clean). Thus do the last one: don't attempt to process files if we have no symbol versions to calculate.

Support for parsing PC source info in stacktraces (e.g. '(P)') was added in commit 2bff77c665ed ("scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: fix decoding of lines with an additional info").

2025-11-08kbuild: Use objtree for module signing key pathMikhail Malyshev1-1/+1
When building out-of-tree modules with CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE=y, module signing fails because the private key path uses $(srctree) while the public key path uses $(objtree). Since signing keys are generated in the build directory during kernel compilation, both paths should use $(objtree) for consistency. This causes SSL errors like: SSL error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory sign-file: /kernel-src/certs/signing_key.pem The issue occurs because: - sig-key uses: $(srctree)/certs/signing_key.pem (source tree) - cmd_sign uses: $(objtree)/certs/signing_key.x509 (build tree) But both keys are generated in $(objtree) during the build. This complements commit 25ff08aa43e37 ("kbuild: Fix signing issue for external modules") which fixed the scripts path and public key path, but missed the private key path inconsistency. Fixes out-of-tree module signing for configurations with separate source and build directories (e.g., O=/kernel-out).

After commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot Authenticode EDK2 compat"), running modules_install with certain versions of kmod (such as 29.1 in Ubuntu Jammy) in certain configurations may fail with: depmod: ERROR: kmod_builtin_iter_next: unexpected string without modname prefix The additional padding bytes to ensure .modinfo is aligned within vmlinux.unstripped are unexpected by kmod, as this section has always just been null-terminated strings. Strip the trailing padding bytes from modules.builtin.modinfo after it has been extracted from vmlinux.unstripped to restore the format that kmod expects while keeping .modinfo aligned within vmlinux.unstripped to avoid regressing the Authenticode calculation fix for EDK2.

2025-11-05kernel-doc: Issue warnings that were silently discardedAndy Shevchenko1-0/+7
When kernel-doc parses the sections for the documentation some errors may occur. In many cases the warning is simply stored to the current "entry" object. However, in the most of such cases this object gets discarded and there is no way for the output engine to even know about that. To avoid that, check if the "entry" is going to be discarded and if there warnings have been collected, issue them to the current logger as is and then flush the "entry". This fixes the problem that original Perl implementation doesn't have. As of Linux kernel v6.18-rc4 the reproducer can be: $ scripts/kernel-doc -v -none -Wall include/linux/util_macros.h ...

2025-11-03Merge branch 'tools-final2' into docs-mwJonathan Corbet7-4421/+0
Our documentation-related tools are spread out over various directories; several are buried in the scripts/ dumping ground. That makes them harder to discover and harder to maintain. Recent work has started accumulating our documentation-related tools in /tools/docs. This series nearly completes that task, moving most of the rest of our various utilities there, hopefully fixing up all of the relevant references in the process. The one exception is scripts/kernel-doc; that move turned up some other problems, so I have dropped it until those are ironed out. At the end, rather than move the old, Perl kernel-doc, I simply removed it.

Unfortunately, the definition within the KernelEntry class takes only a message parameter and not a line number. The intended message is passed as the warning! Pass the filename to the KernelEntry class, and use this to build the log message in the same way as the KernelDoc class does. To avoid future errors, mark the warning parameter for both emit_msg definitions as a keyword-only argument. This will prevent accidentally passing a string as the warning parameter in the future.

2025-10-29lib/crypto: Add FIPS self-tests for SHA-1 and SHA-2Eric Biggers1-0/+32
Add FIPS cryptographic algorithm self-tests for all SHA-1 and SHA-2 algorithms. Following the "Implementation Guidance for FIPS 140-3" document, to achieve this it's sufficient to just test a single test vector for each of HMAC-SHA1, HMAC-SHA256, and HMAC-SHA512. Just run these tests in the initcalls, following the example of e.g. crypto/kdf_sp800108.c. Note that this should meet the FIPS self-test requirement even in the built-in case, given that the initcalls run before userspace, storage, network, etc. are accessible. This does not fix a regression, seeing as lib/ has had SHA-1 support since 2005 and SHA-256 support since 2018. Neither ever had FIPS self-tests. Moreover, fips=1 support has always been an unfinished feature upstream. However, with lib/ now being used more widely, it's now seeing more scrutiny and people seem to want these now [1][2].

2025-10-29Kbuild: enable -fms-extensionsRasmus Villemoes1-1/+3
Once in a while, it turns out that enabling -fms-extensions could allow some slightly prettier code. But every time it has come up, the code that had to be used instead has been deemed "not too awful" and not worth introducing another compiler flag for. That's probably true for each individual case, but then it's somewhat of a chicken/egg situation. If we just "bite the bullet" as Linus says and enable it once and for all, it is available whenever a use case turns up, and no individual case has to justify it. A lore.kernel.org search provides these examples: - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/200706301813.58435.agruen@suse.de/ - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180419152817.GD25406@bombadil.infradead.org/ - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/170622208395.21664.2510213291504081000@noble.neil.brown.name/ - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/87h6475w9q.fsf@prevas.dk/ - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHk-=wjeZwww6Zswn6F_iZTpUihTSNKYppLqj36iQDDhfntuEw@mail.gmail.com/ Undoubtedly, there are more places in the code where this could also be used but where -fms-extensions just didn't come up in any discussion.

The 'old' argument in atomic_try_cmpxchg() and related functions is a pointer to a normal non-atomic integer number, which does not require to be naturally aligned, unlike the atomic_t/atomic64_t types themselves. In order to add an alignment check with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC into the normal instrument_atomic_read_write() helper, change this check to use the non-atomic instrument_read_write(), the same way that was done earlier for try_cmpxchg() in commit ec570320b09f ("locking/atomic: Correct (cmp)xchg() instrumentation"). This prevents warnings on m68k calling the 32-bit atomic_try_cmpxchg() with 16-bit aligned arguments as well as several more architectures including x86-32 when calling atomic64_try_cmpxchg() with 32-bit aligned u64 arguments.

Quoth Mauro: This series should probably be called: "Move the trick-or-treat build hacks accumulated over time into a single place and document them." as this reflects its main goal. As such: - it places the jobserver logic on a library; - it removes sphinx/parallel-wrapper.sh; - the code now properly implements a jobserver-aware logic to do the parallelism when called via GNU make, failing back to "-j" when there's no jobserver; - converts check-variable-fonts.sh to Python and uses it via function call; - drops an extra script to generate man pages, adding a makefile target for it; - ensures that return code is 0 when PDF successfully builds; - about half of the script is comments and documentation. I tried to do my best to document all tricks that are inside the script. This way, the docs build steps is now documented. It should be noticed that it is out of the scope of this series to change the implementation. Surely the process can be improved, but first let's consolidate and document everything on a single place. Such script was written in a way that it can be called either directly or via a Makefile. Running outside Makefile is interesting specially when debug is needed. The command line interface replaces the need of having lots of env vars before calling sphinx-build: $ ./tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper --help usage: sphinx-build-wrapper [-h] [--sphinxdirs SPHINXDIRS [SPHINXDIRS ...]] [--conf CONF] [--builddir BUILDDIR] [--theme THEME] [--css CSS] [--paper {,a4,letter}] [-v] [-j JOBS] [-i] [-V [VENV]] {cleandocs,linkcheckdocs,htmldocs,epubdocs,texinfodocs,infodocs,mandocs,latexdocs,pdfdocs,xmldocs} Kernel documentation builder positional arguments: {cleandocs,linkcheckdocs,htmldocs,epubdocs,texinfodocs,infodocs,mandocs,latexdocs,pdfdocs,xmldocs} Documentation target to build options: -h, --help show this help message and exit --sphinxdirs SPHINXDIRS [SPHINXDIRS ...] Specific directories to build --conf CONF Sphinx configuration file --builddir BUILDDIR Sphinx configuration file --theme THEME Sphinx theme to use --css CSS Custom CSS file for HTML/EPUB --paper {,a4,letter} Paper size for LaTeX/PDF output -v, --verbose place build in verbose mode -j, --jobs JOBS Sets number of jobs to use with sphinx-build -i, --interactive Change latex default to run in interactive mode -V, --venv [VENV] If used, run Sphinx from a venv dir (default dir: sphinx_latest) the only mandatory argument is the target, which is identical with "make" targets. The call inside Makefile doesn't use the last four arguments. They're there to help identifying problems at the build: -v makes the output verbose; -j helps to test parallelism; -i runs latexmk in interactive mode, allowing to debug PDF build issues; -V is useful when testing it with different venvs. When used with GNU make (or some other make which implements jobserver), a call like: make -j <targets> htmldocs will make the wrapper to automatically use POSIX jobserver to claim the number of available job slots, calling sphinx-build with a "-j" parameter reflecting it. ON such case, the default can be overriden via SPHINXDIRS argument. Visiable changes when compared with the old behavior: When V=0, the only visible difference is that: - pdfdocs target now returns 0 on success, 1 on failures. This addresses an issue over the current process where we it always return success even on failures; - it will now print the name of PDF files that failed to build, if any. In verbose mode, sphinx-build-wrapper and sphinx-build command lines are now displayed.

2025-10-14livepatch/klp-build: Introduce fix-patch-lines script to avoid __LINE__ diff ↵Josh Poimboeuf1-0/+79
noise The __LINE__ macro creates challenges for binary diffing. When a .patch file adds or removes lines, it shifts the line numbers for all code below it. This can cause the code generation of functions using __LINE__ to change due to the line number constant being embedded in a MOV instruction, despite there being no semantic difference. Avoid such false positives by adding a fix-patch-lines script which can be used to insert a #line directive in each patch hunk affecting the line numbering. This script will be used by klp-build, which will be introduced in a subsequent patch.

2025-10-14objtool/klp: Introduce klp diff subcommand for diffing object filesJosh Poimboeuf1-1/+9
Add a new klp diff subcommand which performs a binary diff between two object files and extracts changed functions into a new object which can then be linked into a livepatch module. This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch [1] project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to generate livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a complete rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of maintaining kpatch. Key improvements compared to kpatch-build: - Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow graph analysis to help detect changed functions. - Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar. - Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code. - Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft. - Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc inclusion and special section extraction. - Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script (coming in a later patch) which injects #line directives into the source .patch to preserve the original line numbers at compile time. Note the end result of this subcommand is not yet functionally complete. Livepatch needs some ELF magic which linkers don't like: - Two relocation sections (.rela*, .klp.rela*) for the same text section. - Use of SHN_LIVEPATCH to mark livepatch symbols. Unfortunately linkers tend to mangle such things. To work around that, klp diff generates a linker-compliant intermediate binary which encodes the relevant KLP section/reloc/symbol metadata. After module linking, a klp post-link step (coming soon) will clean up the mess and convert the linked .ko into a fully compliant livepatch module. Note this subcommand requires the diffed binaries to have been compiled with -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections, and processed with 'objtool --checksum'. Those constraints will be handled by a klp-build script introduced in a later patch. Without '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections', reliable object diffing would be infeasible due to toolchain limitations: - For intra-file+intra-section references, the compiler might occasionally generated hard-coded instruction offsets instead of relocations. - Section-symbol-based references can be ambiguous: - Overlapping or zero-length symbols create ambiguity as to which symbol is being referenced. - A reference to the end of a symbol (e.g., checking array bounds) can be misinterpreted as a reference to the next symbol, or vice versa. A potential future alternative to '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections' would be to introduce a toolchain option that forces symbol-based (non-section) relocations.

In preparation for the objtool klp diff subcommand, remove the arbitrary 'kmod_' prefix from __KBUILD_MODNAME and instead add it explicitly in the __initcall_id() macro. This change supports the standardization of "unique" symbol naming by ensuring the non-unique portion of the name comes before the unique part. That will enable objtool to properly correlate symbols across builds.

2025-10-14vmlinux.lds: Unify TEXT_MAIN, DATA_MAIN, and related macrosJosh Poimboeuf1-7/+5
TEXT_MAIN, DATA_MAIN and friends are defined differently depending on whether certain config options enable -ffunction-sections and/or -fdata-sections. There's no technical reason for that beyond voodoo coding. Keeping the separate implementations adds unnecessary complexity, fragments the logic, and increases the risk of subtle bugs. Unify the macros by using the same input section patterns across all configs. This is a prerequisite for the upcoming livepatch klp-build tooling which will manually enable -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections via KCFLAGS.

2025-10-14scripts/faddr2line: Fix "Argument list too long" errorPankaj Raghav1-4/+9
The run_readelf() function reads the entire output of readelf into a single shell variable. For large object files with extensive debug information, the size of this variable can exceed the system's command-line argument length limit. When this variable is subsequently passed to sed via `echo "${out}"`, it triggers an "Argument list too long" error, causing the script to fail. Fix this by redirecting the output of readelf to a temporary file instead of a variable. The sed commands are then modified to read from this file, avoiding the argument length limitation entirely.

This section appears to come from GCC for including additional information about global variables that may be protected by KASAN. There appears to be no way to opt out of the generation of these symbols through either a flag or attribute. Attempting to remove '.LASANLOC*' with '--strip-symbol' results in the same error as above because these symbols may refer to (thus have relocation between) each other. Avoid this build breakage by switching to '--strip-unneeded-symbol' for removing __mod_device_table__ symbols, as it will only remove the symbol when there is no relocation pointing to it. While this may result in a little more bloat in the symbol table in certain configurations, it is not as bad as outright build failures.

2025-10-10kbuild: Add '.rel.*' strip pattern for vmlinuxNathan Chancellor1-0/+3
Prior to binutils commit c12d9fa2afe ("Support objcopy --remove-section=.relaFOO") [1] in 2.32, stripping relocation sections required the trailing period (i.e., '.rel.*') to work properly. After commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in vmlinux.unstripped"), there is an error with binutils 2.31.1 or earlier because these sections are not properly removed: s390-linux-objcopy: st6tO8Ev: symbol `.modinfo' required but not present s390-linux-objcopy:st6tO8Ev: no symbols Add the old pattern to resolve this issue (along with a comment to allow cleaning this when binutils 2.32 or newer is the minimum supported version). While the aforementioned kbuild change exposes this, the pattern was originally changed by commit 71d815bf5dfd ("kbuild: Strip runtime const RELA sections correctly"), where it would still be incorrect with binutils older than 2.32.

2025-10-07scripts/Makefile.extrawarn: Respect CONFIG_WERROR / W=e for hostprogsNathan Chancellor1-3/+5
Commit 27758d8c2583 ("kbuild: enable -Werror for hostprogs") unconditionally enabled -Werror for the compiler, assembler, and linker when building the host programs, as the build footprint of the host programs is small (thus risk of build failures from warnings are low) and that stage of the build may not have Kconfig values (thus CONFIG_WERROR could not be used as a precondition). While turning warnings into errors unconditionally happens in a few places within the kernel, it can be disruptive to people who may be building with newer compilers, such as while doing a bisect. While it is possible to avoid this behavior by passing HOSTCFLAGS=-w or HOSTCFLAGS=-Wno-error, it may not be the most intuitive for regular users not intimately familiar with Kbuild. Avoid being disruptive to the entire build by depending on the explicit opt-in of CONFIG_WERROR or W=e to enable -Werror and the like while building the host programs. While this means there is a small portion of the build that does not have -Werror enabled (namely scripts/kconfig/* and scripts/basic/fixdep), it is better than not having it altogether.

2025-10-07kconfig: Avoid prompting for transitional symbolsKees Cook6-1/+61
The "transitional" symbol keyword, while working with the "olddefconfig" target, was prompting during "oldconfig". This occurred because these symbols were not being marked as user-defined when they received values from transitional symbols that had user values. The "olddefconfig" target explicitly doesn't prompt for anything, so this deficiency wasn't noticed. The issue manifested when a symbol's value came from a transitional symbol's user value but the receiving symbol wasn't marked with SYMBOL_DEF_USER. Thus the "oldconfig" logic would then prompt for these symbols unnecessarily. Check after value calculation whether a symbol without a user value gets its value from a single transitional symbol that does have a user value. In such cases, mark the receiving symbol as user-defined to prevent prompting. Update regression tests to verify that symbols with transitional defaults are not prompted in "oldconfig", except when conditional defaults evaluate to 'no' and should legitimately be prompted. Build tested with "make testconfig".

Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on such HW - Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to better fit modern link speeds - Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded synchronize_rcu() on delete - Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of magnitude faster on large switches - Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios - Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets - Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting recent TCP autotuning changes - Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is administratively down - Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per connection and simplify common MPTCP setups - Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races - A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR, reducing code duplication - Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an XDP buffer Things we sprinkled into general kernel code: - Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated YAML parser Driver API: - Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue selection - Introduce API for fetching the DMA device for a given queue, allowing TCP zerocopy RX on more H/W setups - Make XDP helpers compatible with unreadable memory, allowing more easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs datapath - Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide the number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity in RX ring queries and RSS configuration - Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause - Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average, controlling the average smoothing factor Device drivers: - Add a new Huawei driver for 3rd gen NIC (hinic3) - Add a new SpacemiT driver for K1 ethernet MAC - Add a generic abstraction for shared memory communication devices (dibps) - Ethernet high-speed NICs: -

For printing error pointers (i.e., a pointer for which IS_ERR() is true) %pe will print a symbolic error name (e.g,. -EINVAL), opposed to the raw errno (e.g,. -22) produced by PTR_ERR(). It also makes the code cleaner by saving a redundant call to PTR_ERR(). The script supports context, report, and org modes.

2025-09-24kconfig: Add transitional symbol attribute for migration supportKees Cook11-1/+274
During kernel option migrations (e.g. CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI), existing .config files need to maintain backward compatibility while preventing deprecated options from appearing in newly generated configurations. This is challenging with existing Kconfig mechanisms because: 1. Simply removing old options breaks existing .config files. 2. Manually listing an option as "deprecated" leaves it needlessly visible and still writes them to new .config files. 3. Using any method to remove visibility (.e.g no 'prompt', 'if n', etc) prevents the option from being processed at all. Add a "transitional" attribute that creates symbols which are: - Processed during configuration (can influence other symbols' defaults) - Hidden from user menus (no prompts appear) - Omitted from newly written .config files (gets migrated) - Restricted to only having help sections (no defaults, selects, etc) making it truly just a "prior value pass-through" option. The transitional syntax requires a type argument and prevents type redefinition: config NEW_OPTION bool "New option" default OLD_OPTION config OLD_OPTION bool transitional help Transitional config for OLD_OPTION migration. This allows seamless migration: olddefconfig processes existing CONFIG_OLD_OPTION=y settings to enable CONFIG_NEW_OPTION=y, while CONFIG_OLD_OPTION is omitted from newly generated .config files. Added positive and negative testing via "testconfig" make target.

2025-09-24Merge patch series "Add generated modalias to modules.builtin.modinfo"Nathan Chancellor7-60/+107
Alexey Gladkov says: The modules.builtin.modinfo file is used by userspace (kmod to be specific) to get information about builtin modules. Among other information about the module, information about module aliases is stored. This is very important to determine that a particular modalias will be handled by a module that is inside the kernel. There are several mechanisms for creating modalias for modules: The first is to explicitly specify the MODULE_ALIAS of the macro. In this case, the aliases go into the '.modinfo' section of the module if it is compiled separately or into vmlinux.o if it is builtin into the kernel. The second is the use of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE followed by the use of the modpost utility. In this case, vmlinux.o no longer has this information and does not get it into modules.builtin.modinfo. For example: $ modinfo pci:v00008086d0000A36Dsv00001043sd00008694bc0Csc03i30 modinfo: ERROR: Module pci:v00008086d0000A36Dsv00001043sd00008694bc0Csc03i30 not found. $ modinfo xhci_pci name: xhci_pci filename: (builtin) license: GPL file: drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci description: xHCI PCI Host Controller Driver The builtin module is missing alias "pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc0Csc03i30*" which will be generated by modpost if the module is built separately. To fix this it is necessary to add the generated by modpost modalias to modules.builtin.modinfo. Fortunately modpost already generates .vmlinux.export.c for exported symbols. It is possible to add `.modinfo` for builtin modules and modify the build system so that `.modinfo` section is extracted from the intermediate vmlinux after modpost is executed.

2025-09-24modpost: Create modalias for builtin modulesAlexey Gladkov5-2/+41
For some modules, modalias is generated using the modpost utility and the section is added to the module file. When a module is added inside vmlinux, modpost does not generate modalias for such modules and the information is lost. As a result kmod (which uses modules.builtin.modinfo in userspace) cannot determine that modalias is handled by a builtin kernel module. $ cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/modalias pci:v00008086d0000A36Dsv00001043sd00008694bc0Csc03i30 $ modinfo xhci_pci name: xhci_pci filename: (builtin) license: GPL file: drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci description: xHCI PCI Host Controller Driver Missing modalias "pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc0Csc03i30*" which will be generated by modpost if the module is built separately. To fix this it is necessary to generate the same modalias for vmlinux as for the individual modules. Fortunately '.vmlinux.export.o' is already generated from which '.modinfo' can be extracted in the same way as for vmlinux.o.

With lines having a symbol to decode, the script was only trying to preserve the alignment for the timestamps, but not the rest, nor when the caller was set (CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER=y).

To always preserve spaces, they need to be recorded along the words. That is what is now done with the new 'spaces' array. Some notes: - 'extglob' is needed only for this operation, and that's why it is set in a dedicated subshell. - 'read' is used with '-r' not to treat a <backslash> character in any special way, e.g. when followed by a space. - When a word is removed from the 'words' array, the corresponding space needs to be removed from the 'spaces' array as well.

A few patches slightly improving the output generated by decode_stacktrace.sh. This patch (of 3): Lines having a symbol to decode might not always have info after this symbol. It means ${info_str} might not be set, but it will always be printed after a space, causing trailing whitespaces. That's a detail, but when the output is opened with an editor marking these trailing whitespaces, that's a bit disturbing. It is easy to remove them by printing this variable with a space only if it is set. While at it, do the same with ${module} and print everything in one line.

2025-08-28uapi: wrap compiler_types.h in an ifdef instead of the implicit stripJakub Kicinski1-1/+1
The uAPI stddef header includes compiler_types.h, a kernel-only header, to make sure that kernel definitions of annotations like __counted_by() take precedence. There is a hack in scripts/headers_install.sh which strips includes of compiler.h and compiler_types.h when installing uAPI headers. While explicit handling makes sense for compiler.h, which is included all over the uAPI, compiler_types.h is only included by stddef.h (within the uAPI, obviously it's included in kernel code a lot). Remove the stripping from scripts/headers_install.sh and wrap the include of compiler_types.h in #ifdef __KERNEL__ instead. This should be equivalent functionally, but is easier to understand to a casual reader of the code. It also makes it easier to work with kernel headers directly from under tools/ Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <horms@kernel.org> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250825201828.2370083-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
2025-08-27kasan: fix GCC mem-intrinsic prefix with sw tagsAda Couprie Diaz1-4/+8
GCC doesn't support "hwasan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix", only "asan-kernel-mem-intrinsic-prefix"[0], while LLVM supports both. This is already taken into account when checking "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX", but not in the KASAN Makefile adding those parameters when "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" is enabled. Replace the version check with "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX", which already validates that mem-intrinsic prefix parameter can be used, and choose the correct name depending on compiler. GCC 13 and above trigger "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX" which prevents `mem{cpy,move,set}()` being redefined in "mm/kasan/shadow.c" since commit 36be5cba99f6 ("kasan: treat meminstrinsic as builtins in uninstrumented files"), as we expect the compiler to prefix those calls with `__(hw)asan_` instead. But as the option passed to GCC has been incorrect, the compiler has not been emitting those prefixes, effectively never calling the instrumented versions of `mem{cpy,move,set}()` with "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" enabled. If "CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCES" is enabled, this issue would be mitigated as it redefines `mem{cpy,move,set}()` and properly aliases the `__underlying_mem*()` that will be called to the instrumented versions.

2025-08-18kconfig: qconf/xconfig: show the OptionsMode radio button setting at startupRandy Dunlap1-0/+13
When qconf (xconfig) exits, it saves the current Option settings for Show Name, Show Debug Info, and Show {Normal|All|Prompt} Options. When it is next run, it loads these Option settings from its config file. It correctly shows the flag settings for Show Name and Show Debug Info, but it does not show which of the 3 Show...Options is set. This can lead to confusing output, e.g., if the user thinks that xconfig is in Show All Options mode but kconfig options which have an unmet dependency are still being listed. Add code to show the radio button for the current Show...Options mode during startup so that it will reflect the current config setting.

Mauro says: that's the second version of the patch series which converts sphinx-pre-install to Python. The core patches are basically the same as on v1, but it has lots of fixes over the original script after testing sphinx-install on 22 distros. Please notice that I have a separate patch series addressing issues that are specific to PDF generation.

2025-08-13scripts: sphinx-pre-install: some adjustments related to venvMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+16
While nothing was really needed for virtualenv to work on most distros, we had an issue with OpenMandriva. While checking for it, it was noticed that there was no check if python-virtualenv was installed. This didn't solve the issues we faced there: at least with the half-broken OpenMandriva Lx 4.0 docker container we used, ensurepip was not available anywhere, causing venv to fail. Add a distro-specific note about that. Note: at least at the time we did our tests, OpenMandriva Lx 4.0 docker was shipped with wrong dnf repositories. Also, there was no repos available for it anymore. So, we had to do some hacks to upgrade to 4.3 before being able to run any tests.

This program is somewhat complex. Add some docstring documentation, explaining what each function and class is supposed to do. Most of the focus here were to describe the ancillary functions used to detect dependency needs. The main SphinxDependencyChecker still requires a lot of care, and probably need to be reorganized to clearly split the 4 types of output it produces: - Need to upgrade Python binary; - System install needs; - Virtual env install needs; - Python install needs via system packages, to run Sphinx natively. Yet, for now, I'm happy of having it a lot better documented than its Perl version. - While here, rename a parameter to have its usage better documented. No functional changes.

2025-08-13scripts: sphinx-pre-install: improve Gentoo package deps logicMauro Carvalho Chehab1-11/+77
It took me a lot of time, but I guess understand now what it takes to install a package on Gentoo. Handling dependencies is a nightmare, as Gentoo refuses to emerge some packages if there's no package.use file describing them. To make it worse, compilation flags shall also be present there for some packages. If USE is not perfect, error/warning messages like those are shown: gnome-base/librsvg dev-texlive/texlive-xetex media-fonts/dejavu dev-python/pyyaml ... !!! The following binary packages have been ignored due to non matching USE: =media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf -python_single_target_python3_13 qt6 svg =media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf python_single_target_python3_12 -python_single_target_python3_13 qt6 svg =media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf qt6 svg =media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf -python_single_target_python3_10 qt6 svg =media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf -python_single_target_python3_10 python_single_target_python3_12 -python_single_target_python3_13 qt6 svg =media-fonts/noto-cjk-20190416 X =app-text/texlive-core-2024-r1 X cjk -xetex =app-text/texlive-core-2024-r1 X -xetex =app-text/texlive-core-2024-r1 -xetex =dev-libs/zziplib-0.13.79-r1 sdl If emerge is allowed, it will simply ignore the above packages, creating an incomplete installation, which will later fail when one tries to build docs with images or build PDFs. After the fix, command line commands to produce the needed USE chain will be emitted, if they don't exist yet. sudo su -c 'echo "media-gfx/graphviz" > /etc/portage/package.use/graphviz' sudo su -c 'echo "media-gfx/imagemagick" > /etc/portage/package.use/imagemagick' sudo su -c 'echo "media-libs/harfbuzz icu" > /etc/portage/package.use/media-libs' sudo su -c 'echo "media-fonts/noto-cjk" > /etc/portage/package.use/media-fonts' sudo su -c 'echo "app-text/texlive-core xetex" > /etc/portage/package.use/texlive' sudo su -c 'echo "dev-libs/zziplib sdl" > /etc/portage/package.use/zziblib' The new logic tries to be smart enough to detect for missing files and missing arguments. Yet, as Gentoo seems to require users to manage those package.use files by hand, the logic isn't perfect: users may still need to verify for conflicts on different use files.
