docs: *-regressions.rst: Add colon to regzbot commands
Use colon as command terminator everywhere for consistency, even though it's not strictly necessary. That way it will also match regzbot's reference documentation.

Rust changes for v6.9
Another routine one in terms of features. We got two version upgrades this time, but in terms of lines, 'alloc' changes are not very large. Toolchain and infrastructure: - Upgrade to Rust 1.76.0. This time around, due to how the kernel and Rust schedules have aligned, there are two upgrades in fact. These allow us to remove two more unstable features ('const_maybe_uninit_zeroed' and 'ptr_metadata') from the list, among other improvements. - Mark 'rustc' (and others) invocations as recursive, which fixes a new warning and prepares us for the future in case we eventually take advantage of the Make jobserver. 'kernel' crate: - Add the 'container_of!' macro. - Stop using the unstable 'ptr_metadata' feature by employing the now stable 'byte_sub' method to implement 'Arc::from_raw()'. - Add the 'time' module with a 'msecs_to_jiffies()' conversion function to begin with, to be used by Rust Binder. - Add 'notify_sync()' and 'wait_interruptible_timeout()' methods to 'CondVar', to be used by Rust Binder. - Update integer types for 'CondVar'. - Rename 'wait_list' field to 'wait_queue_head' in 'CondVar'. - Implement 'Display' and 'Debug' for 'BStr'. - Add the 'try_from_foreign()' method to the 'ForeignOwnable' trait. - Add reexports for macros so that they can be used from the right module (in addition to the root). - A series of code documentation improvements, including adding intra-doc links, consistency improvements, typo fixes...

docs: submit-checklist: structure by category
While going through the submit checklist, the list order seemed rather random, probably just by historical coincidences of always adding yet the next point someone thought of at the end of the list. Structure and order them by the category of such activity, reviewing, documenting, checking with tools, building and testing. As the diff of the reordering is large: Review code now includes previous points 1, 5 and 22. Review Kconfig includes previous 6, 7 and 8. Documenting includes previous 11, 15, 16, 17, 18 and 23. Checking with tools includes previous 5, 9 and 10. Building includes previous 2, 3, 20 and 24. Testing includes previous 12, 13, 14, 19 and 21. Previous point 4 (compile for ppc64) was merged into point 3 (build for many architectures), as it was just a further note to cross-compiling. Previous point 5 was split into one in review and one in checking to have every previous point in the right category. Point 11 was shortened, as building documentation is mentioned already in Build your code, 1d. A note that was presented visually much too aggressive in the HTML view was turned into a simple "Note that..." sentence in the enumeration. The recommendation to test with the -mm patchset (previous 21, now testing, point 5) was updated to the current state of affairs to test with a recent tag of linux-next. Note that the previous first point still remains the first list even after reordering. Randy confirmed that it was important to Stephen Rothwell to keep 'include what you use' to be the first in the list. While at it, replace the reference to the obsolete CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG.

kbuild: raise the minimum supported version of LLVM to 13.0.1
Patch series "Bump the minimum supported version of LLVM to 13.0.1".
This series bumps the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the
kernel to 13.0.1. The first patch does the bump and all subsequent
patches clean up all the various workarounds and checks for earlier
versions.
Quoting the first patch's commit message for those that were only on CC
for the clean ups:
When __builtin_mul_overflow() has arguments that differ in terms of
signedness and width, LLVM may generate a libcall to __muloti4 because
it performs the checks in terms of 65-bit multiplication. This issue
becomes harder to hit (but still possible) after LLVM 12.0.0, which
includes a special case for matching widths but different signs.
To gain access to this special case, which the kernel can take advantage
of when calls to __muloti4 appear, bump the minimum supported version of
LLVM for building the kernel to 13.0.1. 13.0.1 was chosen because there
is minimal impact to distribution support while allowing a few more
workarounds to be dropped in the kernel source than if 12.0.0 were
chosen. Looking at container images of up to date distribution versions:
archlinux:latest clang version 16.0.6

ubuntu:latest Ubuntu clang version 14.0.0-1ubuntu1.1
ubuntu:rolling Ubuntu clang version 16.0.6 (15)
ubuntu:devel Ubuntu clang version 17.0.6 (3)
The only distribution that gets left behind is Debian Bullseye, as the
default version is 11.0.1; other distributions either have a newer
version than 13.0.1 or one older than the current minimum of 11.0.0.
Debian has easy access to more recent LLVM versions through
apt.llvm.org, so this is not as much of a concern. There are also the
kernel.org LLVM toolchains, which should work with distributions with
glibc 2.28 and newer.
Another benefit of slimming up the number of supported versions of LLVM
for building the kernel is reducing the build capacity needed to support
a matrix that builds with each supported version, which allows a matrix
to reallocate the freed up build capacity towards something else, such
as more configuration combinations.
This passes my build matrix with all supported versions.
This is based on Andrew's mm-nonmm-unstable to avoid trivial conflicts
with my series to update the LLVM links across the repository [1] but I
can easily rebase it to linux-kbuild if Masahiro would rather these
patches go through there (and defer the conflict resolution to the merge
window).

Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including:
- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following a warning that was added in 6.2. - Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to, hopefully, make it more useful. - Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly with __counted_by annotations. - We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the delightful consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs build. A sustained effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has addressed almost all of those, bringing the documentation back into sync with the code. The fixes are going through the appropriate maintainer trees. - Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic links to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations easy to access. - Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese. ...plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFDBAABCAAtFiEEIw+MvkEiF49krdp9F0NaE2wMflgFAmWcRKMPHGNvcmJldEBs d24ubmV0AAoJEBdDWhNsDH5YTKIH/AxBt/3iWt40dPf18arZHLU6tdUbmg01ttef CNKWkniCmABGKc//KYDXvjZMRDt0YlrS0KgUzrb8nIQTBlZG40D+88EwjXE0HeGP xt1Fk7OPOiJEqBZ3HEe0PDVfOiA+4yR6CmDKklCJuKg77X9atklneBwPUw/cOASk CWj+BdbwPBiSNQv48Lp87rGusKwnH/g0MN2uS0z9MPr1DYjM1K8+ngZjGW24lZHt qs5yhP43mlZGBF/lwNJXQp/xhnKAqJ9XwylBX9Wmaoxaz9yyzNVsADGvROMudgzi 9YB+Jdy7Z0JSrVoLIRhUuDOv7aW8vk+8qLmGJt2aTIsqehbQ6pk= =fCtT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'docs-6.8' of git://git.lwn.net/linux Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet: "Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including: - The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following a warning that was added in 6.2 - Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to, hopefully, make it more useful - Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly with __counted_by annotations - We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent structure members that disappeared a while back.

Docs: remove mentions of fdformat from util-linux
Since util-linux commit 13b26e3c36d1 ("fdformat: remove command from default build") the fdformat tool is not built anymore by default. As a result it is not packaged anymore by distributions and therefore not usable by users. Instead mention the "mount" command as more likely to be present alternative. Also drop the reference to fdformat from the list of features of new versions of util-linux.

Add .editorconfig file for basic formatting
EditorConfig is a specification to define the most basic code formatting stuff, and it's supported by many editors and IDEs, either directly or via plugins, including VSCode/VSCodium, Vim, emacs and more. It allows to define formatting style related to indentation, charset, end of lines and trailing whitespaces. It also allows to apply different formats for different files based on wildcards, so for example it is possible to apply different configs to *.{c,h}, *.py and *.rs. In linux project, defining a .editorconfig might help to those people that work on different projects with different indentation styles, so they cannot define a global style. Now they will directly see the correct indentation on every fresh clone of the project.

docs: netdev: try to guide people on dealing with silence
There has been more than a few threads which went idle before the merge window and now people came back to them and started asking about next steps. We currently tell people to be patient and not to repost too often. Our "not too often", however, is still a few orders of magnitude faster than other subsystems. Or so I feel after hearing people talk about review rates at LPC. Clarify in the doc that if the discussion went idle for a week on netdev, 95% of the time there's no point waiting longer.

The number of commits for documentation is not huge this time around, but
there are some significant changes nonetheless: - Some more Spanish-language and Chinese translations. - The much-discussed documentation of the confidential-computing threat model. - Powerpc and RISCV documentation move under Documentation/arch - these complete this particular bit of documentation churn. - A large traditional-Chinese documentation update. - A new document on backporting and conflict resolution. - Some kernel-doc and Sphinx fixes. Plus the usual smattering of smaller updates and typo fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFDBAABCAAtFiEEIw+MvkEiF49krdp9F0NaE2wMflgFAmVBNv8PHGNvcmJldEBs d24ubmV0AAoJEBdDWhNsDH5Y0JkH/36MOpkaDnsY69/dMRKSuD4mAAP2H6LS8V63 SsMgH5VCj8lcy/Tz1+J89t14pbcX8l0viKxSo4UxvzoJ5snrz8A8gZ9oqY7NCcNs nMtolnN5IwdbgGnEGqASSLsl07lnabhRK0VYv9ZO7lHjYQp97VsJ/qrjJn385HFE vYW8iRcxcKdwtuuwOtbPcdAMjP54saJdNC5wMLsfMR0csKcGbzaSNpqpiGovzT7l phG2DSxrJH0gUZyeGPryroNppaf+mVKSDSiwRdI8mzm0J67p6dZYYwBS1Iw6Awbf 8iYoj6W63/FVQbXffPx5d6ffOSQh4JkAskxgBUOzluSGusSDc+4= =9HU5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'docs-6.7' of git://git.lwn.net/linux Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "The number of commits for documentation is not huge this time around, but there are some significant changes nonetheless: - Some more Spanish-language and Chinese translations - The much-discussed documentation of the confidential-computing threat model - Powerpc and RISCV documentation move under Documentation/arch - these complete this particular bit of documentation churn - A large traditional-Chinese documentation update - A new document on backporting and conflict resolution - Some kernel-doc and Sphinx fixes Plus the usual smattering of smaller updates and typo fixes" * tag 'docs-6.7' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (40 commits) scripts/kernel-doc: Fix the regex for matching -Werror flag docs: backporting: address feedback Documentation: driver-api: pps: Update PPS generator documentation speakup: Document USB support doc: blk-ioprio: Bring the doc in line with the implementation docs: usb: fix reference to nonexistent file in UVC Gadget docs: doc-guide: mention 'make refcheckdocs' Documentation: fix typo in dynamic-debug howto scripts/kernel-doc: match -Werror flag strictly Documentation/sphinx: Remove the repeated word "the" in comments. docs: sparse: add SPDX-License-Identifier docs/zh_CN: Add subsystem-apis Chinese translation docs/zh_TW: update contents for zh_TW docs: submitting-patches: encourage direct notifications to commenters docs: add backporting and conflict resolution document docs: move riscv under arch docs: update link to powerpc/vmemmap_dedup.rst mm/memory-hotplug: fix typo in documentation docs: move powerpc under arch PCI: Update the devres documentation regarding to pcim_*() ... |

Networking changes for 6.7.
Core & protocols ---------------- - Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by a route attribute. - Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit). - The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler: - add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling - support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR) - improve inactive flow reporting - optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality - Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern replacement for the old MD5 option. - Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to TCP_INFO. - Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets. - Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was shutdown(). - Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft. - Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode. - Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable. - Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps limit the number of wakeups. - Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire table. - Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver. - Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks. - Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were created via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at runtime. - Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different filters. - MCTP over I3C. BPF --- - Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic of the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode. - Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should never be true but are hard for the verifier to infer. With some extra flexibility around handling of the exit / failure. https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/ - Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on the value for the current CPU. This allows to deprecate local one-off implementations of per-CPU storage like BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps. - Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs of different services. - Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs. - Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support. One of the use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF. - Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup(). - Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU. - Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and fentry/fexit programs. - Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs. - Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations. - Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x. Changes to common code ---------------------- - overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with flexible array members. - Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers. Driver API ---------- - Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks. - Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in network time distribution. - Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code. Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE. - Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop(). - Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC addresses. - Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames. - Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule(). - Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages. Misc ---- - A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric. - A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees. - A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes. - Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers. - Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core. Removed ------- - AppleTalk COPS. - AppleTalk ipddp. - TI AR7 CPMAC Ethernet driver. Drivers ------- - Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - add a driver for the Intel E2000 IPUs - make CRC/FCS stripping configurable - cross-timestamping for E823 devices - basic support for E830 devices - use aux-bus for managing client drivers - i40e: report firmware versions via devlink - nVidia/Mellanox: - support 4-port NICs - increase max number of channels to 256 - optimize / parallelize SF creation flow - Broadcom (bnxt): - enhance NIC temperature reporting - support PAM4 speeds and lane configuration - Marvell OcteonTX2: - PTP pulse-per-second output support - enable hardware timestamping for VFs - Solarflare/AMD: - conntrack NAT offload and offload for tunnels - Wangxun (ngbe/txgbe): - expose HW statistics - Pensando/AMD: - support PCI level reset - narrow down the condition under which skbs are linearized - Netronome/Corigine (nfp): - support CHACHA20-POLY1305 crypto in IPsec offload - Ethernet NICs embedded, slower, virtual: - Synopsys (stmmac): - add Loongson-1 SoC support - enable use of HW queues with no offload capabilities - enable PPS input support on all 5 channels - increase TX coalesce timer to 5ms - RealTek USB (r8152): improve efficiency of Rx by using GRO frags - xen: support SW packet timestamping - add drivers for implementations based on TI's PRUSS (AM64x EVM) - nVidia/Mellanox Ethernet datacenter switches: - avoid poor HW resource use on Spectrum-4 by better block selection for IPv6 multicast forwarding and ordering of blocks in ACL region - Ethernet embedded switches: - Microchip: - support configuring the drive strength for EMI compliance - ksz9477: partial ACL support - ksz9477: HSR offload - ksz9477: Wake on LAN - Realtek: - rtl8366rb: respect device tree config of the CPU port - Ethernet PHYs: - support Broadcom BCM5221 PHYs - TI dp83867: support hardware LED blinking - CAN: - add support for Linux-PHY based CAN transceivers - at91_can: clean up and use rx-offload helpers - WiFi: - MediaTek (mt76): - new sub-driver for mt7925 USB/PCIe devices - HW wireless <> Ethernet bridging in MT7988 chips - mt7603/mt7628 stability improvements - Qualcomm (ath12k): - WCN7850: - enable 320 MHz channels in 6 GHz band - hardware rfkill support - enable IEEE80211_HW_SINGLE_SCAN_ON_ALL_BANDS to make scan faster - read board data variant name from SMBIOS - QCN9274: mesh support - RealTek (rtw89): - TDMA-based multi-channel concurrency (MCC) - Silicon Labs (wfx): - Remain-On-Channel (ROC) support - Bluetooth: - ISO: many improvements for broadcast support - mark BCM4378/BCM4387 as BROKEN_LE_CODED - add support for QCA2066 - btmtksdio: enable Bluetooth wakeup from suspend Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEE6jPA+I1ugmIBA4hXMUZtbf5SIrsFAmU8XsYACgkQMUZtbf5S Irv19RAAnud/24OOF5XMEJkIcYlnfqximh4XO6PujRSYkSkOUJdZTF6iJPgf3pSP YpwoHYbYKHYfeOf8+3bTNESiQNSnoVmvmvwiS6/7lZ3behHUrGLQzW9Htc3EZyWH 2h6QkDZ5OOjfg0bwYSfp3vXkmMH2k8WE9Y0NvCkhcohqZi13Rmp14RnyPmNb2d1V yZRYDMSM133KqE6gnBr1Ct65IEvnKeGlCUN2mTGqOJgdn6DZMsyxvtt0y4rmN7Ab 41+CgPU5SfxfbYpW+Dl2HJpgfte3WrC57KC6AM0PAPJzPmQWgeB/m9mjz/apj6Bg bhsEIo7FdvbCnQm3yWPhK2OgCAcSwLr8jfGMU+Q+W4VnL5SRRR3Rm0zjsze+kHNP OfqJgxzl3DpvoJqVBy1h5FGcZt0XHwhksm4cTxWqIahsF+veY0ECBXbuBBQx9XTF Y7INfI8ulg7wISJs+CJfIClYkgOibTw2u8taBS5ikbtgxNqp5D4QqODn7UefQap1 PR/IDYODF+zRgmMJLeBqSa6fij6BkfOEDiOWak5kggBoZdtbtmeKI6tzze06CNdW lWv1WEhRufxnwK+IuWsEkjhiMbs2WGLvkJ5JbgQV9BfqHfIfiqBCrcWtT/WbQnGt lmU46CXh1t/FZEqbmK9h+8vsIIfrcDl6jb5npEiKPRG00vDKRTM= =46nS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'net-next-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by a route attribute. - Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send a cumulative ACK at the end.

Rust changes for v6.7
A small one compared to the previous one in terms of features. In terms of lines, as usual, the 'alloc' version upgrade accounts for most of them. Toolchain and infrastructure: - Upgrade to Rust 1.73.0. This time around, due to how the kernel and Rust schedules have aligned, there are two upgrades in fact. They contain the fixes for a few issues we reported to the Rust project. In addition, a few cleanups indicated by the upgraded compiler or possible thanks to it. For instance, the compiler now detects redundant explicit links. - A couple changes to the Rust 'Makefile' so that it can be used with toybox tools, allowing Rust to be used in the Android kernel build. x86: - Enable IBT if enabled in C. Documentation: - Add "The Rust experiment" section to the Rust index page. MAINTAINERS - Add Maintainer Entry Profile field ('P:'). - Update our 'W:' field to point to the webpage we have been building this year. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEPjU5OPd5QIZ9jqqOGXyLc2htIW0FAmU79aIACgkQGXyLc2ht IW03Rw//ZcbRDxVEbD9UE+aM6wtKQ1eY8QIB7gNivctv1R8spKlnsLpF/VdBQV4v yWmMPG/Vnp7Xbkcg2kZrbo2J82NgD6ACJWxWHVb8K2N/hoIVwrQXiQUmtg8bAa5B aDso+8WcWZOF6uzu5ww7kv8AbAOO3ReCxnIVPexeWQtZVAGeBd4BiVecoTL0mCbA 7MMNyyKxjnRSo72Sj4iFoVPjb/IkOHYRaPQA/QOvG3bwin5nTvxM+94v+UZ4D7fp THWuZjJiC19L/C2/GGweK6mnpV2lExdZl4RC3JInu8s3R6jwGuRxUNE4vCnO9DlY QBkeUV3qwMCG/LnAb+iyClDM5aEU2wWBFl1NwNy0yEQM/gBqk6+4HQxxB177Wte3 V65f4Sz19baci1SNCk+rFe/1EK8/UoD2jo42DXnuIUnGq5VJtVRNxbn/2tR0kNZn 9DGwR1U8shMytNen5xFLi03q+p1Zuez/YKzmTmahv8zn2JysUgj3ctFK2M3mCiFu +HWvPFBbUbOH+/g3txBXtnvY757Nei5siSKONVZTOez6VYR//jlvLNNBbUp3vPFE w2TuR6HcFVR8z/kjcTxIgS+xzbsT8FkugJwRdLeQU4Ky03o2Z6uosM3nky9TzWjb oVR7rFgb9KygvP67+uVQS5OETQVO0EwutlEsQzzs7cbnoSt0ckk= =rKLl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'rust-6.7' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "A small one compared to the previous one in terms of features.

For instance, the compiler now detects redundant explicit links. - A couple changes to the Rust 'Makefile' so that it can be used with toybox tools, allowing Rust to be used in the Android kernel build. x86: - Enable IBT if enabled in C Documentation: - Add "The Rust experiment" section to the Rust index page MAINTAINERS: - Add Maintainer Entry Profile field ('P:'). - Update our 'W:' field to point to the webpage we have been building this year" * tag 'rust-6.7' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux: docs: rust: add "The Rust experiment" section x86: Enable IBT in Rust if enabled in C rust: Use grep -Ev rather than relying on GNU grep rust: Use awk instead of recent xargs rust: upgrade to Rust 1.73.0 rust: print: use explicit link in documentation rust: task: remove redundant explicit link rust: kernel: remove `#[allow(clippy::new_ret_no_self)]` MAINTAINERS: add Maintainer Entry Profile field for Rust MAINTAINERS: update Rust webpage rust: upgrade to Rust 1.72.1 rust: arc: add explicit `drop()` around `Box::from_raw()` |

Documentation: security-bugs.rst: linux-distros relaxed their rules
The linux-distros list relaxed their rules to try to adapt better to how the Linux kernel works. Let's update the Coordination part to explain why and when to contact them or not to and how to avoid trouble in the future.

docs: try to encourage (netdev?) reviewers
Add a section to netdev maintainer doc encouraging reviewers to chime in on the mailing list. The questions about "when is it okay to share feedback" keep coming up (most recently at netconf) and the answer is "pretty much always". Extend the section of 7.AdvancedTopics.rst which deals with reviews a little bit to add stuff we had been recommending locally.

docs: submitting-patches: encourage direct notifications to commenters
Commenters may not receive new versions of patches via the lists. Without a directed notification to them they might miss those new versions. This is frustrating for the patch developers as they don't receive their earned Reviewed-by. It is also frustrating for the commenters, as they might think their review got ignored or they have to dig up new versions from the archive manually. So encourage patch submitters to make sure that all commenters get notified also when no Reviewed-by was issued yet.

docs: add backporting and conflict resolution document
This is a new document based on my 2022 blog post: https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/backporting-patches-using-git Although this is aimed at stable contributors and distro maintainers, it does also contain useful tips and tricks for anybody who needs to resolve merge conflicts. By adding this to the kernel as documentation we can more easily point to it e.g. from stable emails about failed backports, as well as allow the community to modify it over time if necessary. I've added this under process/ since it also has process/applying-patches.rst. Another interesting document is maintainer/rebasing-and-merging.rst which maybe should eventually refer to this one, but I'm leaving that as a future cleanup. Thanks to Harshit Mogalapalli for helping with the original blog post as well as this updated document and Bagas Sanjaya for providing thoughtful feedback. v2: fixed heading style, link style, placeholder style, other comments Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20230303162553.17212-1-vegard.nossum@oracle.com/ Cc: Harshit Mogalapalli <harshit.m.mogalapalli@oracle.com> Cc: Bagas Sanjaya <bagasdotme@gmail.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Cc: "Jason A.

docs: move riscv under arch
and fix all in-tree references. Architecture-specific documentation is being moved into Documentation/arch/ as a way of cleaning up the top-level documentation directory and making the docs hierarchy more closely match the source hierarchy.

docs: submitting-patches: Suggest a longer expected time for responses
While some subsystems do typically have very fast turnaround times on review this is far from standard over the kernel and is likely to set unrealistic expectations for submitters. Tell submitters to expect 2-3 weeks instead, this will cover more of the kernel.
