Another moderately busy cycle in docsland:
- Work on Chinese translations has picked up again. Happily, they are
maintaining the existing translations and not just adding new ones.
- Some maintenance of the Japanese and Italian translations as well.
- The removal of the venerable "dontdiff" file. It has long outlived its
usefulness and contained entries ("parse.*") that would actively mask
actual source change.
- The addition of enforcement information to the code-of-conduct
documentation.
Along with some build-system fixes and a lot of typo and language fixes.

docs: remove Documentation/dontdiff
The dontdiff file is a relic from the pre-Git era that has little use now. It has entries (parse.c, for example) that will mask real changes to kernel source files. There are all kinds of entries for files we do not create anymore. Rather than try to fix it up, simply remove it. Update the kernel documentation (and translations) to remove references to this file. There is an ancient Japanese translation of SubmittingPatches that I am unable to update; that really needs a thorough redo.

docs: netdev: document guidance on cleanup patches
The purpose of this section is to document what is the current practice regarding clean-up patches which address checkpatch warnings and similar problems. I feel there is a value in having this documented so others can easily refer to it. Clearly this topic is subjective. And to some extent the current practice discourages a wider range of patches than is described here. But I feel it is best to start somewhere, with the most well established part of the current practice.

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

docs: netdev: document guidance on cleanup.h
Document what was discussed multiple times on list and various virtual / in-person conversations. guard() being okay in functions <= 20 LoC is a bit of my own invention. If the function is trivial it should be fine, but feel free to disagree :) We'll obviously revisit this guidance as time passes and we and other subsystems get more experience.

Documentation: embargoed-hardware-issues.rst: add a section documenting the "early access" process
Over the past years there have been many "misunderstandings" and "confusion" as to who is, and is not, allowed early access to the changes created by the members of the embargoed hardware issue teams working on a specific problem. The current process, while it does work, is "difficult" for many companies to understand and agree with. Because of this, there has been numerous attempts by many companies to work around the process by lies, subterfuge, and other side channels sometimes involving unsuspecting lawyers. Cut all of that out, and put the responsibility of distributing code on the silicon vendor affected, as they already have legal agreements in place that cover this type of distribution. When this distribution happens, the developers involved MUST be notified of this happening, to be kept aware of the situation at all times. The wording here has been hashed out by many different companies and lawyers involved in the process, as well as community members and everyone now agrees that the proposed change here should work better than what is currently happening. This change has been approved by a review from a large number of different open source legal members, representing the companies involved in this process.

Documentation: embargoed-hardware-issues.rst: minor cleanups and fixes
The embargoed-hardware-issues.rst file needed a bunch of minor grammar, punctuation, and syntax cleanups based on feedback we have gotten over the past few years. The main change here is the term "silicon" being used over "hardware" to differentiate between companies that make a chip (i.e. a CPU) and those that take the chip and put it into their system. No process changes are made here at all, only clarification for the way the current process works.

Rust changes for v6.11
The highlight is the establishment of a minimum version for the Rust toolchain, including 'rustc' (and bundled tools) and 'bindgen'. The initial minimum will be the pinned version we currently have, i.e. we are just widening the allowed versions. That covers 3 stable Rust releases: 1.78.0, 1.79.0, 1.80.0 (getting released tomorrow), plus beta, plus nightly. This should already be enough for kernel developers in distributions that provide recent Rust compiler versions routinely, such as Arch Linux, Debian Unstable (outside the freeze period), Fedora Linux, Gentoo Linux (especially the testing channel), Nix (unstable) and openSUSE Slowroll and Tumbleweed. In addition, the kernel is now being built-tested by Rust's pre-merge CI. That is, every change that is attempting to land into the Rust compiler is tested against the kernel, and it is merged only if it passes. Similarly, the bindgen tool has agreed to build the kernel in their CI too. Thus, with the pre-merge CI in place, both projects hope to avoid unintentional changes to Rust that break the kernel. This means that, in general, apart from intentional changes on their side (that we will need to workaround conditionally on our side), the upcoming Rust compiler versions should generally work. In addition, the Rust project has proposed getting the kernel into stable Rust (at least solving the main blockers) as one of its three flagship goals for 2024H2 [1]. I would like to thank Niko, Sid, Emilio et al. for their help promoting the collaboration between Rust and the kernel.

around, mostly more of the usual:
- More Spanish, Italian, and Chinese translations
- A new script, scripts/checktransupdate.py, can be used to see which
commits have touched an (English) document since a given translation was
last updated.
- A couple of "best practices" suggestions (on Link: tags and off-list
discussions) that were not entirely at consensus level, but I concluded
they were close enough to accept.
- Some nice cleanups removing documentation for kernel parameters that have
not been recognized for ... a long time.

kbuild: raise the minimum GNU Make requirement to 4.0
RHEL/CentOS 7, popular distributions that install GNU Make 3.82, reached EOM/EOL on June 30, 2024. While you may get extended support, it is a good time to raise the minimum GNU Make version. The new requirement, GNU Make 4.0, was released in October, 2013. I did not touch the Makefiles under tools/ because I do not know the requirements for building tools. I do not find any GNU Make version checks under tools/. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> |

docs: rust: quick-start: add section on Linux distributions
Now that we are starting to support several Rust compiler and `bindgen` versions, there is a good chance some Linux distributions work out of the box. Thus, provide some instructions on how to set the toolchain up for a few major Linux distributions. This simplifies the setup users need to build the kernel. In addition, add an introduction to the document so that it is easier to understand its structure and move the LLVM+Rust kernel.org toolchains paragraph there (removing "depending on the Linux version"). We may want to reorganize the document or split it in the future, but I wanted to focus this commit on the new information added about each particular distribution. Finally, remove the `rustup`'s components mention in `changes.rst` since users do not need it if they install the toolchain via the distributions (and anyway it was too detailed for that main document).

rust: start supporting several compiler versions
It is time to start supporting several Rust compiler versions and thus establish a minimum Rust version. We may still want to upgrade the minimum sometimes in the beginning since there may be important features coming into the language that improve how we write code (e.g. field projections), which may or may not make sense to support conditionally. We will start with a window of two stable releases, and widen it over time. Thus this patch does not move the current minimum (1.78.0), but instead adds support for the recently released 1.79.0. This should already be enough for kernel developers in distributions that provide recent Rust compiler versions routinely, such as Arch Linux, Debian Unstable (outside the freeze period), Fedora Linux, Gentoo Linux (especially the testing channel), Nix (unstable) and openSUSE Tumbleweed. See the documentation patch about it later in this series. In addition, Rust for Linux is now being built-tested in Rust's pre-merge CI [1]. That is, every change that is attempting to land into the Rust compiler is tested against the kernel, and it is merged only if it passes -- thanks to the Rust project for that! Thus, with the pre-merge CI in place, both projects hope to avoid unintentional changes to Rust that break the kernel. This means that, in general, apart from intentional changes on their side (that we will need to workaround conditionally on our side), the upcoming Rust compiler versions should generally work. For instance, currently, the beta (1.80.0) and nightly (1.81.0) branches work as well. Of course, the Rust for Linux CI job in the Rust toolchain may still need to be temporarily disabled for different reasons, but the intention is to help bring Rust for Linux into stable Rust.

docs: Extend and refactor index of further kernel docs
Extend the Index of Further Kernel Documentation by adding entries for the Rust for Linux website, the Linux Foundation's YouTube channel, and notes on the second edition of Billimoria's kernel programming book. Also, perform some refactoring: format the text to 75 characters per line and sort per-section content in chronological order of publication.

arm64 updates for 6.10
ACPI:
* Support for the Firmware ACPI Control Structure (FACS) signature
feature which is used to reboot out of hibernation on some systems.
Kbuild:
* Support for building Flat Image Tree (FIT) images, where the kernel
Image is compressed alongside a set of devicetree blobs.
Memory management:
* Optimisation of our early page-table manipulation for creation of the
linear mapping.
* Support for userfaultfd write protection, which brings along some nice
cleanups to our handling of invalid but present ptes.
* Extend our use of range TLBI invalidation at EL1.
Perf and PMUs:
* Ensure that the 'pmu->parent' pointer is correctly initialised by PMU
drivers.
* Avoid allocating 'cpumask_t' types on the stack in some PMU drivers.
* Fix parsing of the CPU PMU "version" field in assembly code, as it
doesn't follow the usual architectural rules.
* Add best-effort unwinding support for USER_STACKTRACE
* Minor driver fixes and cleanups.
Selftests:
* Minor cleanups to the arm64 selftests (missing NULL check, unused
variable).
Miscellaneous
* Add a command-line alias for disabling 32-bit application support.
* Add part number for Neoverse-V2 CPUs.
* Minor fixes and cleanups.

Rust changes for v6.10
The most notable change is the drop of the 'alloc' in-tree fork. This is nicely reflected in the diffstat as a ~10k lines drop. In turn, this makes the version upgrades way simpler and smaller in the future, e.g. the latest one in commit |

Documentation: coding-style: ask function-like macros to evaluate parameters
Patch series "codingstyle: avoid unused parameters for a function-like
macro", v7.
A function-like macro could result in build warnings such as "unused
variable." This patchset updates the guidance to recommend always using a
static inline function instead and also provides checkpatch support for
this new rule.
