Neither the warning nor the help message gives any hint on the unit for
length: Could be meters, inches, bytes, characters or ... lines.
Extend the output of `--help` to name the unit "lines" and the default:
- --min-conf-desc-length=n set the min description length, if shorter, warn
+ --min-conf-desc-length=n set the minimum description length for config symbols
+ in lines, if shorter, warn (default 4)
Include the minimum number of lines as other error messages already do:
- WARNING: please write a help paragraph that fully describes the config symbol
+ WARNING: please write a help paragraph that fully describes the config symbol with at least 4 lines

The deprecated_apis map was created in [1] so checkpatch would flag
deprecated RCU APIs. These deprecated APIs have since been removed from
the kernel. This patch removes them from this map so checkpatch doesn't
waste time looking for them, and so readers of checkpatch looking for
deprecated APIs don't waste time searching for them.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"This is slightly smaller than usual, with the most interesting work
being still around RTNL scope reduction.
Core:
- More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention, including
preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock, replacing
RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related net device
data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such lock.
- Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge
and more specific TCP coverage.
- Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.
- Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
redirection based on such header field.
Netfilter:
- Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
netdev basechains without devices.
- Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
reset and re-open events.
- Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on each
restart.
Protocols:
- A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
several helpers into the core
- Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
inet peers handling.
- Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
address changes.
- Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.
- Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets, to
avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
lifetime is very short.
- Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel TLS
(for TLS 1.3 only).
- Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.
- Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.
- Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.
Driver API:
- Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
ethtool.
- Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.
- Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W
implementation.
- Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.
- Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
implementation.
- Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.
- Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
interfaces.
Tests and tooling:
- Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
separately from the kernel.
- Increase TCP selftest coverage importing several packetdrill
test-cases.
- Regenerate the ethtool uapi header from the YNL spec, to ease
maintenance and future development.
- Add YNL support for decoding the link types used in net self-tests,
allowing a single build to run both net and drivers/net.

Patch series "Update reference to include/asm-<arch>".
Despite "include/asm-<arch>" having been replaced by
"arch/<arch>/include/asm" 15 years ago, there are still several
references left.
This patch series updates the most visible ones.
This patch (of 3):
"include/asm-<arch>" was replaced by "arch/<arch>/include/asm" a long

The guidelines for git commit ID abbreviation are inconsistent: some
places state to use 12 characters exactly, while other places recommend
12 characters or more. The same issue is present in the checkpatch.pl
script.
E.g. Documentation/dev-tools/checkpatch.rst says:
**GIT_COMMIT_ID**
The proper way to reference a commit id is:
commit <12+ chars of sha1> ("<title line>")
However, scripts/checkpatch.pl has two different checks: one warning
check accepting 12 characters exactly:
# Check Fixes: styles is correct
Please use correct Fixes: style 'Fixes: <12 chars of sha1> (\"<title line>\")'
and a second error check accepting 12-40 characters:
# Check for git id commit length and improperly formed commit descriptions
# A correctly formed commit description is:
# commit <SHA-1 hash length 12+ chars> ("Complete commit subject")
Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of sha1>
Hence patches containing commit IDs with more than 12 characters are
flagged by checkpatch, and sometimes rejected by maintainers or
reviewers. This is becoming more important with the growth of the
repository, as git may decide to use more characters in case of local
conflicts.
Fix this by settling on at least 12 characters, in both the
documentation and in the checkpatch.pl script.

This check looks for common words that probably indicate a patch
is a fix. For now the regex is:
(?:(?:BUG: K.|UB)SAN: |Call Trace:|stable\@|syzkaller)/)
Why are stable patches encouraged to have a fixes tag? Some people mark
their stable patches as "# 5.10" etc. This is useful but a Fixes tag is
still a good idea. For example, the Fixes tag helps in review. It
helps people to not cherry-pick buggy patches without also
cherry-picking the fix.
Also if a bug affects the 5.7 kernel some people will round it up to
5.10+ because 5.7 is not supported on kernel.org. It's possible the Bad
Binder bug was caused by this sort of gap where companies outside of
kernel.org are supporting different kernels from kernel.org.
Should it be counted as a Fix when a patch just silences harmless
WARN_ON() stack trace. Yes. Definitely.
Is silencing compiler warnings a fix? It seems unfair to the original
authors, but we use -Werror now, and warnings break the build so let's
just add Fixes tags. I tell people that silencing static checker
warnings is not a fix but the rules on this vary by subsystem.
Is fixing a minor LTP issue (Linux Test Project) a fix? Probably? It's
hard to know what to do if the LTP test has technically always been
broken.
One clear false positive from this check is when someone updated their
debug output and included before and after Call Traces. Or when crashes
are introduced deliberately for testing. In those cases, you should
just ignore checkpatch.

For a printout to happen, all types must be set to "show". So, AND is
needed for the flags, not OR, if we want to ignore something.

If function-like macros do not utilize a parameter, it might result in a
build warning. In our coding style guidelines, we advocate for utilizing
static inline functions to replace such macros. This patch verifies
compliance with the new rule.
For a macro such as the one below,
#define test(a) do { } while (0)
The test result is as follows.
WARNING: Argument 'a' is not used in function-like macro
#21: FILE: mm/init-mm.c:20:
+#define test(a) do { } while (0)
total: 0 errors, 1 warnings, 8 lines checked

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)
Misc:
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
which we have specs
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool
Driver API:
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write

Add some warnings for using ethtool_sprintf() where a simple
ethtool_puts() would suffice.
The two cases are:
1) Use ethtool_sprintf() with just two arguments:
| ethtool_sprintf(&data, driver[i].name);
or
2) Use ethtool_sprintf() with a standalone "%s" fmt string:
| ethtool_sprintf(&data, "%s", driver[i].name);
The former may cause -Wformat-security warnings while the latter is just
not preferred. Both are safely in the category of warnings, not errors.
