commit 936599ca514973d44a766b7376c6bbdc96b6a8cc upstream.
The userprogs infrastructure does not expect clang being used with GNU ld
and in that case uses /usr/bin/ld for linking, not the configured $(LD).
This fallback is problematic as it will break when cross-compiling.
Mixing clang and GNU ld is used for example when building for SPARC64,
as ld.lld is not sufficient; see Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst.
Relax the check around --ld-path so it gets used for all linkers.

commit 4f79eaa2ceac86a0e0f304b0bab556cca5bf4f30 upstream.
Clang and GCC have different behaviors around disabling warnings
included in -Wall and -Wextra and the order in which flags are
specified, which is exposed by clang's new support for
-Wunterminated-string-initialization.
$ cat test.c
const char foo[3] = "FOO";
const char bar[3] __attribute__((__nonstring__)) = "BAR";
$ clang -fsyntax-only -Wextra test.c
test.c:1:21: warning: initializer-string for character array is too long, array size is 3 but initializer has size 4 (including the null terminating character); did you mean to use the 'nonstring' attribute? [-Wunterminated-string-initialization]
1 | const char foo[3] = "FOO";
| ^~~~~
$ clang -fsyntax-only -Wextra -Wno-unterminated-string-initialization test.c
$ clang -fsyntax-only -Wno-unterminated-string-initialization -Wextra test.c
test.c:1:21: warning: initializer-string for character array is too long, array size is 3 but initializer has size 4 (including the null terminating character); did you mean to use the 'nonstring' attribute? [-Wunterminated-string-initialization]
1 | const char foo[3] = "FOO";
| ^~~~~
$ gcc -fsyntax-only -Wextra test.c
test.c:1:21: warning: initializer-string for array of ‘char’ truncates NUL terminator but destination lacks ‘nonstring’ attribute (4 chars into 3 available) [-Wunterminated-string-initialization]
1 | const char foo[3] = "FOO";
| ^~~~~
$ gcc -fsyntax-only -Wextra -Wno-unterminated-string-initialization test.c
$ gcc -fsyntax-only -Wno-unterminated-string-initialization -Wextra test.c
Move -Wextra up right below -Wall in Makefile.extrawarn to ensure these
flags are at the beginning of the warning options list. Move the couple
of warning options that have been added to the main Makefile since
commit e88ca24319e4 ("kbuild: consolidate warning flags in
scripts/Makefile.extrawarn") to scripts/Makefile.extrawarn after -Wall /
-Wextra to ensure they get properly disabled for all compilers.

commit a79be02bba5c31f967885c7f3bf3a756d77d11d9 upstream.
This was triggered by one of my mis-uses causing odd build warnings on
sparc in linux-next, but while figuring out why the "obviously correct"
use of cc-option caused such odd breakage, I found eight other cases of
the same thing in the tree.
The root cause is that 'cc-option' doesn't work for checking negative
warning options (ie things like '-Wno-stringop-overflow') because gcc
will silently accept options it doesn't recognize, and so 'cc-option'
ends up thinking they are perfectly fine.
And it all works, until you have a situation where _another_ warning is
emitted. At that point the compiler will go "Hmm, maybe the user
intended to disable this warning but used that wrong option that I
didn't recognize", and generate a warning for the unrecognized negative
option.
Which explains why we have several cases of this in the tree: the
'cc-option' test really doesn't work for this situation, but most of the
time it simply doesn't matter that ity doesn't work.
The reason my recently added case caused problems on sparc was pointed
out by Thomas Weißschuh: the sparc build had a previous explicit warning
that then triggered the new one.
I think the best fix for this would be to make 'cc-option' a bit smarter
about this sitation, possibly by adding an intentional warning to the
test case that then triggers the unrecognized option warning reliably.
But the short-term fix is to replace 'cc-option' with an existing helper
designed for this exact case: 'cc-disable-warning', which picks the
negative warning but uses the positive form for testing the compiler
support.

commit 9d7a0577c9db35c4cc52db90bc415ea248446472 upstream.
From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
I had left the warning around but as a non-fatal error to get my gcc-15
builds going, but fixed up some of the most annoying warning cases so
that it wouldn't be *too* verbose.
Because I like the _concept_ of the warning, even if I detested the
implementation to shut it up.
It turns out the implementation to shut it up is even more broken than I
thought, and my "shut up most of the warnings" patch just caused fatal
errors on gcc-14 instead.
I had tested with clang, but when I upgrade my development environment,
I try to do it on all machines because I hate having different systems
to maintain, and hadn't realized that gcc-14 now had issues.
The ACPI case is literally why I wanted to have a *type* that doesn't
trigger the warning (see commit d5d45a7f2619: "gcc-15: make
'unterminated string initialization' just a warning"), instead of
marking individual places as "__nonstring".
But gcc-14 doesn't like that __nonstring location that shut gcc-15 up,
because it's on an array of char arrays, not on one single array:
drivers/acpi/tables.c:399:1: error: 'nonstring' attribute ignored on objects of type 'const char[][4]' [-Werror=attributes]
399 | static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __initconst __nonstring = {
| ^~~~~~
and my attempts to nest it properly with a type had failed, because of
how gcc doesn't like marking the types as having attributes, only
symbols.
There may be some trick to it, but I was already annoyed by the bad
attribute design, now I'm just entirely fed up with it.
I wish gcc had a proper way to say "this type is a *byte* array, not a
string".
The obvious thing would be to distinguish between "char []" and an
explicitly signed "unsigned char []" (as opposed to an implicitly
unsigned char, which is typically an architecture-specific default, but
for the kernel is universal thanks to '-funsigned-char').
But any "we can typedef a 8-bit type to not become a string just because
it's an array" model would be fine.
But "__attribute__((nonstring))" is sadly not that sane model.

commit d5d45a7f26194460964eb5677a9226697f7b7fdd upstream.
gcc-15 enabling -Wunterminated-string-initialization in -Wextra by
default was done with the best intentions, but the warning is still
quite broken.
What annoys me about the warning is that this is a very traditional AND
CORRECT way to initialize fixed byte arrays in C:
unsigned char hex[16] = "0123456789abcdef";
and we use this all over the kernel. And the warning is fine, but gcc
developers apparently never made a reasonable way to disable it. As is
(sadly) tradition with these things.
Yes, there's "__attribute__((nonstring))", and we have a macro to make
that absolutely disgusting syntax more palatable (ie the kernel syntax
for that monstrosity is just "__nonstring").
But that attribute is misdesigned. What you'd typically want to do is
tell the compiler that you are using a type that isn't a string but a
byte array, but that doesn't work at all:
warning: ‘nonstring’ attribute does not apply to types [-Wattributes]
and because of this fundamental mis-design, you then have to mark each
instance of that pattern.
This is particularly noticeable in our ACPI code, because ACPI has this
notion of a 4-byte "type name" that gets used all over, and is exactly
this kind of byte array.
This is a sad oversight, because the warning is useful, but really would
be so much better if gcc had also given a sane way to indicate that we
really just want a byte array type at a type level, not the broken "each
and every array definition" level.
So now instead of creating a nice "ACPI name" type using something like
typedef char acpi_name_t[4] __nonstring;
we have to do things like
char name[ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __nonstring;
in every place that uses this concept and then happens to have the
typical initializers.
This is annoying me mainly because I think the warning _is_ a good
warning, which is why I'm not just turning it off in disgust. But it is
hampered by this bad implementation detail.
[ And obviously I'm doing this now because system upgrades for me are
something that happen in the middle of the release cycle: don't do it
before or during travel, or just before or during the busy merge
window period. ]

commit 84ffc79bfbf70c779e60218563f2f3ad45288671 upstream.
A recent optimization change in LLVM [1] aims to transform certain loop
idioms into calls to strlen() or wcslen(). This change transforms the
first while loop in UniStrcat() into a call to wcslen(), breaking the
build when UniStrcat() gets inlined into alloc_path_with_tree_prefix():
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: wcslen
>>> referenced by nls_ucs2_utils.h:54 (fs/smb/client/../../nls/nls_ucs2_utils.h:54)
>>> vmlinux.o:(alloc_path_with_tree_prefix)
>>> referenced by nls_ucs2_utils.h:54 (fs/smb/client/../../nls/nls_ucs2_utils.h:54)
>>> vmlinux.o:(alloc_path_with_tree_prefix)
Disable this optimization with '-fno-builtin-wcslen', which prevents the
compiler from assuming that wcslen() is available in the kernel's C
library.
[ More to the point - it's not that we couldn't implement wcslen(), it's
that this isn't an optimization at all in the context of the kernel.
Replacing a simple inlined loop with a function call to the same loop
is just stupid and pointless if you don't have long strings and fancy
libraries with vectorization support etc.
For the regular 'strlen()' cases, we want the compiler to do this in
order to handle the trivial case of constant strings. And we do have
optimized versions of 'strlen()' on some architectures. But for
wcslen? Just no. - Linus ]

commit 0866ee8e50f017731b80891294c0edd0f5fcd0a9 upstream.
Starting with Rust 1.86.0, Clippy's `needless_continue` lint complains
about the last statement of a loop [1], including cases like:
while ... {
match ... {
... if ... => {
...
return ...;
}
_ => continue,
}
}
as well as nested `match`es in a loop.
One solution is changing `continue` for `()` [2], but arguably using
`continue` shows the intent better when it is alone in an arm like that.
Moreover, I am not sure we want to force people to try to find other
ways to write the code either, in cases when that applies.
In addition, the help text does not really apply in the new cases the
lint has introduced, e.g. here one cannot simply "drop" the expression:
warning: this `continue` expression is redundant
--> rust/macros/helpers.rs:85:18
|
85 | _ => continue,
| ^^^^^^^^
|
= help: consider dropping the `continue` expression
= help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#needless_continue
= note: requested on the command line with `-W clippy::needless-continue`
The examples in the documentation do not show a case like this, either,
so the second "help" line does not help.
In addition, locally disabling the lint is not possible with `expect`,
since the behavior differs across versions. Using `allow` would be
possible, but, even then, an extra line just for this is a bit too much,
especially if there are other ways to satisfy the lint.
Finally, the lint is still in the "pedantic" category and disabled by
default by Clippy.
Thus disable the lint, at least for the time being.
Feedback was submitted to upstream Clippy, in case this can be improved
or perhaps the lint split into several [3].

commit dfc1b168a8c4b376fa222b27b97c2c4ad4b786e1 upstream.
The userprog infrastructure links objects files through $(CC).
Either explicitly by manually calling $(CC) on multiple object files or
implicitly by directly compiling a source file to an executable.
The documentation at Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst indicates that ld.lld
would be used for linking if LLVM=1 is specified.
However clang instead will use either a globally installed cross linker
from $PATH called ${target}-ld or fall back to the system linker, which
probably does not support crosslinking.
For the normal kernel build this is not an issue because the linker is
always executed directly, without the compiler being involved.
Explicitly pass --ld-path to clang so $(LD) is respected.
As clang 13.0.1 is required to build the kernel, this option is available.
Fixes: 7f3a59db274c ("kbuild: add infrastructure to build userspace programs")

commit 8577c9dca799bd74377f7c30015d8cdc53a53ca2 upstream.
Back when we used Rust 1.60.0 (before Rust was merged in the kernel),
we added `-Wclippy::dbg_macro` to the compilation flags. This worked
great with our custom `dbg!` macro (vendored from `std`, but slightly
modified to use the kernel printing facilities).
However, in the very next version, 1.61.0, it stopped working [1] since
the lint started to use a Rust diagnostic item rather than a path to find
the `dbg!` macro [1]. This behavior remains until the current nightly
(1.83.0).
Therefore, currently, the `dbg_macro` is not doing anything, which
explains why we can invoke `dbg!` in samples/rust/rust_print.rs`, as well
as why changing the `#[allow()]`s to `#[expect()]`s in `std_vendor.rs`
doctests does not work since they are not fulfilled.
One possible workaround is using `rustc_attrs` like the standard library
does. However, this is intended to be internal, and we just started
supporting several Rust compiler versions, so it is best to avoid it.
Therefore, instead, use `disallowed_macros`. It is a stable lint and
is more flexible (in that we can provide different macros), although
its diagnostic message(s) are not as nice as the specialized one (yet),
and does not allow to set different lint levels per macro/path [2].
In turn, this requires allowing the (intentional) `dbg!` use in the
sample, as one would have expected.
Finally, in a single case, the `allow` is fixed to be an inner attribute,
since otherwise it was not being applied.

commit 7d56786edcbdf58b6367fd7f01d5861214ad1c95 upstream.
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.

commit bef83245f5ed434932aaf07f890142b576dc5d85 upstream.
In Rust 1.71.0, `rustdoc` added the `unescaped_backticks` lint, which
detects what are typically typos in Markdown formatting regarding inline
code [1], e.g. from the Rust standard library:
/// ... to `deref`/`deref_mut`` must ...
/// ... use [`from_mut`]`. Specifically, ...
It does not seem to have almost any false positives, from the experience
of enabling it in the Rust standard library [2], which will be checked
starting with Rust 1.82.0. The maintainers also confirmed it is ready
to be used.
Thus enable it.
