Merge tag 'rust-6.13' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux

Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:

- Enable a series of lints, including safety-related ones, e.g. the
compiler will now warn about missing safety comments, as well as
unnecessary ones. How safety documentation is organized is a
frequent source of review comments, thus having the compiler guide
new developers on where they are expected (and where not) is very
nice.

- Start using '#[expect]': an interesting feature in Rust (stabilized
in 1.81.0) that makes the compiler warn if an expected warning was
_not_ emitted. This is useful to avoid forgetting cleaning up
locally ignored diagnostics ('#[allow]'s).

- Introduce '.clippy.toml' configuration file for Clippy, the Rust
linter, which will allow us to tweak its behaviour. For instance,
our first use cases are declaring a disallowed macro and, more
importantly, enabling the checking of private items.

- Lints-related fixes and cleanups related to the items above.

- Migrate from 'receiver_trait' to 'arbitrary_self_types': to get the
kernel into stable Rust, one of the major pieces of the puzzle is
the support to write custom types that can be used as 'self', i.e.
as receivers, since the kernel needs to write types such as 'Arc'
that common userspace Rust would not. 'arbitrary_self_types' has
been accepted to become stable, and this is one of the steps
required to get there.

- Remove usage of the 'new_uninit' unstable feature.

- Use custom C FFI types. Includes a new 'ffi' crate to contain our
custom mapping, instead of using the standard library 'core::ffi'
one. The actual remapping will be introduced in a later cycle.

- Map '__kernel_{size_t,ssize_t,ptrdiff_t}' to 'usize'/'isize'
instead of 32/64-bit integers.

- Fix 'size_t' in bindgen generated prototypes of C builtins.

- Warn on bindgen < 0.69.5 and libclang >= 19.1 due to a double issue
in the projects, which we managed to trigger with the upcoming
tracepoint support. It includes a build test since some
distributions backported the fix (e.g. Debian -- thanks!). All
major distributions we list should be now OK except Ubuntu non-LTS.

'macros' crate:

- Adapt the build system to be able run the doctests there too; and
clean up and enable the corresponding doctests.

'kernel' crate:

- Add 'alloc' module with generic kernel allocator support and remove
the dependency on the Rust standard library 'alloc' and the
extension traits we used to provide fallible methods with flags.

Add the 'Allocator' trait and its implementations '{K,V,KV}malloc'.
Add the 'Box' type (a heap allocation for a single value of type
'T' that is also generic over an allocator and considers the
kernel's GFP flags) and its shorthand aliases '{K,V,KV}Box'. Add
'ArrayLayout' type. Add 'Vec' (a contiguous growable array type)
and its shorthand aliases '{K,V,KV}Vec', including iterator
support.

For instance, now we may write code such as:

let mut v = KVec::new();
v.push(1, GFP_KERNEL)?;
assert_eq!(&v, &[1]);

Treewide, move as well old users to these new types.

- 'sync' module: add global lock support, including the
'GlobalLockBackend' trait; the 'Global{Lock,Guard,LockedBy}' types
and the 'global_lock!' macro. Add the 'Lock::try_lock' method.

- 'error' module: optimize 'Error' type to use 'NonZeroI32' and make
conversion functions public.

- 'page' module: add 'page_align' function.

- Add 'transmute' module with the existing 'FromBytes' and 'AsBytes'
traits.

- 'block::mq::request' module: improve rendered documentation.

- 'types' module: extend 'Opaque' type documentation and add simple
examples for the 'Either' types.

drm/panic:

- Clean up a series of Clippy warnings.

Documentation:

- Add coding guidelines for lints and the '#[expect]' feature.

- Add Ubuntu to the list of distributions in the Quick Start guide.

MAINTAINERS:

- Add Danilo Krummrich as maintainer of the new 'alloc' module.

And a few other small cleanups and fixes"

rust: introduce `.clippy.toml`

Some Clippy lints can be configured/tweaked. We will use these knobs to
our advantage in later commits.

This is done via a configuration file, `.clippy.toml` [1]. The file is
currently unstable. This may be a problem in the future, but we can adapt
as needed. In addition, we proposed adding Clippy to the Rust CI's RFL
job [2], so we should be able to catch issues pre-merge.

Thus introduce the file.

kbuild: generate offset range data for builtin modules

Create file module.builtin.ranges that can be used to find where
built-in modules are located by their addresses. This will be useful for
tracing tools to find what functions are for various built-in modules.

The offset range data for builtin modules is generated using:
- modules.builtin: associates object files with module names
- vmlinux.map: provides load order of sections and offset of first member
per section
- vmlinux.o.map: provides offset of object file content per section
- .*.cmd: build cmd file with KBUILD_MODFILE

The generated data will look like:

.text 00000000-00000000 = _text
.text 0000baf0-0000cb10 amd_uncore
.text 0009bd10-0009c8e0 iosf_mbi
...
.text 00b9f080-00ba011a intel_skl_int3472_discrete
.text 00ba0120-00ba03c0 intel_skl_int3472_discrete intel_skl_int3472_tps68470
.text 00ba03c0-00ba08d6 intel_skl_int3472_tps68470
...
.data 00000000-00000000 = _sdata
.data 0000f020-0000f680 amd_uncore

For each ELF section, it lists the offset of the first symbol. This can
be used to determine the base address of the section at runtime.

Next, it lists (in strict ascending order) offset ranges in that section
that cover the symbols of one or more builtin modules. Multiple ranges
can apply to a single module, and ranges can be shared between modules.

The CONFIG_BUILTIN_MODULE_RANGES option controls whether offset range data
is generated for kernel modules that are built into the kernel image.

How it works:

1. The modules.builtin file is parsed to obtain a list of built-in
module names and their associated object names (the .ko file that
the module would be in if it were a loadable module, hereafter
referred to as <kmodfile>). This object name can be used to
identify objects in the kernel compile because any C or assembler
code that ends up into a built-in module will have the option
-DKBUILD_MODFILE=<kmodfile> present in its build command, and those
can be found in the .<obj>.cmd file in the kernel build tree.

If an object is part of multiple modules, they will all be listed
in the KBUILD_MODFILE option argument.

This allows us to conclusively determine whether an object in the
kernel build belong to any modules, and which.

2. The vmlinux.map is parsed next to determine the base address of each
top level section so that all addresses into the section can be
turned into offsets. This makes it possible to handle sections
getting loaded at different addresses at system boot.

We also determine an 'anchor' symbol at the beginning of each
section to make it possible to calculate the true base address of
a section at runtime (i.e. symbol address - symbol offset).

We collect start addresses of sections that are included in the top
level section. This is used when vmlinux is linked using vmlinux.o,
because in that case, we need to look at the vmlinux.o linker map to
know what object a symbol is found in.

And finally, we process each symbol that is listed in vmlinux.map
(or vmlinux.o.map) based on the following structure:

vmlinux linked from vmlinux.a:

vmlinux.map:
<top level section>
<included section> -- might be same as top level section)
<object> -- built-in association known
<symbol> -- belongs to module(s) object belongs to
...

vmlinux linked from vmlinux.o:

vmlinux.map:
<top level section>
<included section> -- might be same as top level section)
vmlinux.o -- need to use vmlinux.o.map
<symbol> -- ignored
...

vmlinux.o.map:
<section>
<object> -- built-in association known
<symbol> -- belongs to module(s) object belongs to
...

3. As sections, objects, and symbols are processed, offset ranges are
constructed in a straight-forward way:

- If the symbol belongs to one or more built-in modules:
- If we were working on the same module(s), extend the range
to include this object
- If we were working on another module(s), close that range,
and start the new one
- If the symbol does not belong to any built-in modules:
- If we were working on a module(s) range, close that range

Merge tag 'net-next-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"The zero-copy changes are relatively significant, but regression risk
should be contained. The feature needs to be used to cause trouble.

Also it feels like we got an order of magnitude more semi-automated
"refactoring" chaff than usual, I wonder if it's just us.

Core & protocols:

- Support Device Memory TCP, ability to zero-copy receive TCP
payloads to a DMABUF region of memory while packet headers land
separately in normal kernel buffers, and TCP processes then as
usual.

- The ability to read the PTP PHC (Physical Hardware Clock) alongside
MONOTONIC_RAW timestamps with PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED. Previously
only CLOCK_REALTIME was supported.

- Allow matching on all bits of IP DSCP for routing decisions.
Previously we only supported on matching TOS bits in IPv4 which is
a narrower interpretation of the same header field.

- Increase the range of weights used for multi-path routing from
8 bits to 16 bits.

- Add support for IPv6 PIO p flag in the Prefix Information Option
per draft-ietf-6man-pio-pflag.

- IPv6 IOAM6 support for new tunsrc encap mode for better
performance.

- Detect destinations which blackhole MPTCP traffic and avoid
initiating MPTCP connections to them for a certain period of time,
1h by default.

- Improve IPsec control path performance by removing the inexact
policies list.

- AF_VSOCK: add support for SIOCOUTQ ioctl.

- Add enum for reasons TCP reset was sent for easier tracing.

- Add SMC ringbufs usage statistics.

Drivers:

- Handle netconsole setup failures more gracefully, don't fail
loading, retain the specified target as disabled.

- Extend bonding's IPsec offload pass thru capabilities (ESN, stats).

Filtering:

- Add TCP_BPF_SOCK_OPS_CB_FLAGS to bpf_*sockopt() to address the case
when long-lived sockets miss a chance to set additional callbacks
if a sockops program was not attached early in their lifetime.

- Support using BPF skb helpers in tracepoints.

- Conntrack Netlink: support CTA_FILTER for flush.

- Improve SCTP support in nfnetlink_queue.

- Improve performance of large nftables flush transactions.

Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

- selftests: support setting an "interpreter" for script files; make
it easy to run as separate cases tests where one "interpreter" is
fed various test descriptions (in our case packet sequences).

Driver API:
