There are commas used as statement terminations that should typically have
used semicolons instead. Only direct assignments or use of a single
function or value on a single line are detected by this test.
e.g.:
foo = bar(), /* typical use is semicolon not comma */
bar = baz();
Add an imperfect test to detect these comma uses.
No false positives were found in testing, but many types of false
negatives are possible.
e.g.:
foo = bar() + 1, /* comma use, but not direct assignment */
bar = baz();

Kconfig allows to customize the CONFIG_ prefix via the $CONFIG_
environment variable. Out-of-tree projects may therefore use Kconfig with
a different prefix, or they may use a custom configuration tool which does
not use the CONFIG_ prefix at all. Such projects may still want to adhere
to the Linux kernel coding style and run checkpatch.pl.
One example is OP-TEE [1] which does not use Kconfig but does have
configuration options prefixed with CFG_. It also mostly follows the
kernel coding style and therefore being able to use checkpatch is quite
valuable.
To make this possible, add the --kconfig-prefix command line option.

Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit stack
traversal in common container configs and improving TCP back-pressure.
Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain.
Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user space.
(Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to declared
policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies (min/max length
and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular commands.
This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead of kernel
version parsing or trial and error).
Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge.
Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces.
Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK
packets of TCPv6.
In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data

objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications
and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting
to a blocking notifier.
Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs,
opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific
TCP option use.
Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life
of TCP CC implemented in BPF.
Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them
early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the
user space infra we have.
Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing.
Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'.
Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls.

syscall.
Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying
overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update;
report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware
activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact
reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not).
Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard
counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space.
Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update
in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw,

While iterating over child nodes with the for_each functions, if
control is transferred from the middle of the loop, as in the case
of a break or return or goto, there is no decrement in the
reference counter thus ultimately resulting in a memory leak.
Add this script to detect potential memory leaks caused by
the absence of of_node_put() before break, goto, or, return
statements which transfer control outside the loop.

Address several issues related to pointing to the wrong line
number:
1) ensure that line numbers will always be initialized
When section is the default (Description), the line number
is not initializing, producing this:
$ ./scripts/kernel-doc --enable-lineno ./drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-mem2mem.c|less
**Description**
#define LINENO 0
In case of streamoff or release called on any context,
1] If the context is currently running, then abort job will be called
2] If the context is queued, then the context will be removed from
the job_queue
Which is not right. Ensure that the line number will always
be there. After applied, the result now points to the right location:
**Description**
#define LINENO 410
In case of streamoff or release called on any context,
1] If the context is currently running, then abort job will be called
2] If the context is queued, then the context will be removed from
the job_queue
2) The line numbers for function prototypes are always + 1,
because it is taken at the line after handling the prototype.
Change the logic to point to the next line after the /** */
block;
3) The "DOC:" line number should point to the same line as this
markup is found, and not to the next one.
Probably part of the issues were due to a but that was causing
the line number offset to be incremented by one, if --export
were used.

When kernel-doc is called via kerneldoc.py, there's no need to
auto-detect the Sphinx version, as the Sphinx module already
knows it. So, add an optional parameter to allow changing the
Sphinx dialect.
As kernel-doc can also be manually called, keep the auto-detection
logic if the parameter was not specified. On such case, emit
a warning if sphinx-build can't be found at PATH.
I ended using a suggestion from Joe for using a more readable
regex, instead of using a complex one with a hidden group like:
m/^(\d+)\.(\d+)(?:\.?(\d+)?)/

While kernel-doc needs to parse parameters in order to
identify its name, it shouldn't be touching the type,
as parsing it is very difficult, and errors happen.
One current error is when parsing this parameter:
const u32 (*tab)[256]
Found at ./lib/crc32.c, on this function:
u32 __pure crc32_be_generic (u32 crc, unsigned char const *p, size_t len, const u32 (*tab)[256], u32 polynomial);
The current logic mangles it, producing this output:
const u32 ( *tab
That's something that it is not recognizeable.
So, instead, let's push the argument as-is, and use it
when printing the function prototype and when describing
each argument.

Right now, the build system doesn't use -nofunction, as
it is pretty much useless, because it doesn't consider
the other output modes (extern, internal), working only
with all.
Also, it is limited to exclude functions.

This is happening with perl version 5.30.3, but I'm not
so sure if this is a perl bug, or if this is due to something
else.
In any case, fixing it is easy. Basically, when "-internal"
parameter is used, the process_export_file() function opens the
handle "IN". This makes the line number to be incremented, as the
handler for the main open is also "IN".
Fix the problem by using a different handler for the
main open().

Unfortunately, Sphinx 3.x parser for c functions is too pedantic:
https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/8241
While it could be relaxed with some configurations, there are
several corner cases that it would make it hard to maintain,
and will require teaching conf.py about several macros.
So, let's instead use the :c:macro notation. This will
produce an output that it is not as nice as currently, but it
should still be acceptable, and will provide cross-references,
removing thousands of warnings when building with newer
versions of Sphinx.

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
"A decent number of SELinux patches for v5.10, twenty two in total. The
highlights are listed below, but all of the patches pass our test
suite and merge cleanly.
- A number of changes to how the SELinux policy is loaded and managed
inside the kernel with the goal of improving the atomicity of a
SELinux policy load operation.
These changes account for the bulk of the diffstat as well as the
patch count. A special thanks to everyone who contributed patches
and fixes for this work.
- Convert the SELinux policy read-write lock to RCU.
- A tracepoint was added for audited SELinux access control events;
this should help provide a more unified backtrace across kernel and
userspace.
- Allow the removal of security.selinux xattrs when a SELinux policy
is not loaded.
- Enable policy capabilities in SELinux policies created with the
scripts/selinux/mdp tool.
- Provide some "no sooner than" dates for the SELinux checkreqprot
sysfs deprecation"

Merge tag 'printk-for-5.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
"The big new thing is the fully lockless ringbuffer implementation,
including the support for continuous lines. It will allow to store and
read messages in any situation wihtout the risk of deadlocks and
without the need of temporary per-CPU buffers.
The access is still serialized by logbuf_lock. It synchronizes few
more operations, for example, temporary buffer for formatting the
message, syslog and kmsg_dump operations. The lock removal is being
discussed and should be ready for the next release.
The continuous lines are handled exactly the same way as before to
avoid regressions in user space. It means that they are appended to
the last message when the caller is the same. Only the last message
can be extended.
The data ring includes plain text of the messages. Except for an
integer at the beginning of each message that points back to the
descriptor ring with other metadata.
The dictionary has to stay. journalctl uses it to filter the log. It
allows to show messages related to a given device. The dictionary
values are stored in the descriptor ring with the other metadata.
This is the first part of the printk rework as discussed at Plumbers
2019, see https://lore.kernel.org/r/87k1acz5rx.fsf@linutronix.de. The
next big step will be handling consoles by kthreads during the normal
system operation. It will require special handling of situations when
the kthreads could not get scheduled, for example, early boot,
suspend, panic.
Other changes:
- Add John Ogness as a reviewer for printk subsystem. He is author of
the rework and is familiar with the code and history.
- Fix locking in serial8250_do_startup() to prevent lockdep report.
- Few code cleanups"

Currently, Coccinelle uses at most one thread per core by default in

Modify coccicheck to use all available threads in machines with

While fetching the number of threads per core with lscpu,
the [:digit:] set is used for translation of digits from 0-9.
However, using [:digit:] instead of "[:digit:]" does not seem
to work uniformly for some shell types and configurations
(such as zsh).
Therefore, modify coccicheck to use double quotes around the
[:digit:] set for uniformity and better portability.

namespace.pl is intended to help locate symbols which are defined but
are not used externally. The goal is to avoid bloat of the namespace in
the resulting kernel image.
The script relies on object data, and only finds unused symbols for the
configuration used to generate that object data. This results in a lot
of false positive warnings such as symbols only used by a single
architecture, or symbols which are used externally only under certain
configurations.
Running namespace.pl using allyesconfig, allmodconfig, and
x86_64_defconfig yields the following results:
* allmodconfig
* 11122 unique symbol names with no external reference
* 1194 symbols listed as multiply defined
* 214 symbols it can't resolve
* allyesconfig
* 10997 unique symbol names with no external reference
* 1194 symbols listed as multiply defined
* 214 symbols it can't resolve
* x86_64_defconfig
* 5757 unique symbol names with no external reference
* 528 symbols listed as multiply defined
* 154 symbols it can't resolve
The script also has no way to easily limit the scope of the checks to
a given subset of the kernel, such as only checking for symbols defined
within a module or subsystem.
Discussion on public mailing lists seems to indicate that many view the
tool output as suspect or not very useful (see discussions at [1] and
[2] for further context).
As described by Masahiro Yamada at [2], namespace.pl provides 3 types of
checks: listing multiply defined symbols, resolving external symbols,
and warnings about symbols with no reference.
The first category of issues is easily caught by the linker as any set
of multiply defined symbols should fail to link. The second category of
issues is also caught by linking, as undefined symbols would cause
issues. Even with modules, these types of issues where a module relies
on an external symbol are caught by modpost.
The remaining category of issues reported is the list of symbols with no
external reference, and is the primary motivation of this script.
However, it ought to be clear from the above examples that the output is
difficult to sort through. Even allyesconfig has ~10000 entries.
The current submit-checklist indicates that patches ought to go through
namespacecheck and fix any new issues arising. But that itself presents
problems. As described at [1], many cases of reports are due to
configuration where a function is used externally by some configuration
settings. Prominent maintainers appear to dislike changes modify code
such that symbols become static based on CONFIG_* flags ([3], and [4])
One possible solution is to adjust the advice and indicate that we only
care about the output of namespacecheck on allyesconfig or allmodconfig
builds...
However, given the discussion at [2], I suspect that few people are
actively using this tool. It doesn't have a maintainer in the
MAINTAINERS flie, and it produces so many warnings for unused symbols
that it is difficult to use effectively. Thus, I propose we simply
remove it.

These have been required by the Debian policy for a while, even though
the tooling can detect and workaround their omission, but are a hard
requirement when using rootless builds.
[masahiro:
The following Debian policy is particularly important for rootless builds:
"Both binary-* targets should depend on the build target, or on the
appropriate build-arch or build-indep target, so that the package is
built if it has not been already."

This makes it possible to build the Debian packages without requiring
(pseudo-)root privileges, when the build drivers support this mode
of operation.

We should not be encoding the timestamp, otherwise we end up generating

Currently, the build log shows KSYM + object name.
Precisely speaking, kallsyms generates a .S file and then the compiler
compiles it into a .o file. Split the build log into two.
[Before]
GEN modules.builtin
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1
KSYM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2
KSYM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.o
LD vmlinux
[After]
GEN modules.builtin
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.o
LD vmlinux

Pull KCSAN updates for v5.10 from Paul E. McKenney:
- Improve kernel messages.
- Be more permissive with bitops races under KCSAN_ASSUME_PLAIN_WRITES_ATOMIC=y.
- Optimize debugfs stat counters.
- Introduce the instrument_*read_write() annotations, to provide a
finer description of certain ops - using KCSAN's compound instrumentation.
Use them for atomic RNW and bitops, where appropriate.
Doing this might find new races.
(Depends on the compiler having tsan-compound-read-before-write=1 support.)
- Support atomic built-ins, which will help certain architectures, such as s390.
- Misc enhancements and smaller fixes.

Rejecting non-native endian BTF overlapped with the addition
of support for it.
The rest were more simple overlapping changes, except the
renesas ravb binding update, which had to follow a file
move as well as a YAML conversion.

One-element and zero-length arrays are deprecated [1]. Kernel
code should always use "flexible array members" instead, except
for existing uapi definitions.
The script warns about one-element and zero-length arrays in structs.

one-element arrays")

Commit cc9539e7884c ("media: docs: use the new SPDX header for GFDL-1.1 on
*.svg files") adds SPDX-License-Identifiers enclosed in XML comments,
i.e., <!-- ... -->, for svg files.
Unfortunately, ./scripts/spdxcheck.py does not handle
SPDX-License-Identifiers in XML comments, so it simply fails on checking
these files with 'Invalid License ID: --'.
Strip the XML comment ending simply by copying how it was done for comments
in C. With that, ./scripts/spdxcheck.py handles the svg files properly.
