ecab4115c4 kbuild: mark rustc (and others) invocations as recursive 
`rustc` (like Cargo) may take advantage of the jobserver at any time
(e.g. for backend parallelism, or eventually frontend too). In the kernel,
we call `rustc` with `-Ccodegen-units=1` (and `-Zthreads` is 1 so far),
so we do not expect parallelism. However, in the upcoming Rust 1.76.0, a
warning is emitted by `rustc` [1] when it cannot connect to the jobserver
it was passed (in many cases, but not all: compiling and `--print sysroot`
do, but `--version` does not). And given GNU Make always passes
the jobserver in the environment variable (even when a line is deemed
non-recursive), `rustc` will end up complaining about it (in particular
in Make 4.3 where there is only the simple pipe jobserver style).

One solution is to remove the jobserver from `MAKEFLAGS`. However, we
can mark the lines with calls to `rustc` (and Cargo) as recursive, which
looks simpler. This is being documented as a recommendation in `rustc`
[2] and allows us to be ready for the time we may use parallelism inside
`rustc` (potentially now, if a user passes `-Zthreads`). Thus do so.

Similarly, do the same for `rustdoc` and `cargo` calls.

Finally, there is one case that the solution does not cover, which is the
`$(shell ...)` call we have. Thus, for that one, set an empty `MAKEFLAGS`
environment variable.

c5fed8ce65 rust: upgrade to Rust 1.75.0 
This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.74.1 to 1.75.0
(i.e. the latest) [1].

See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").

# Unstable features

The `const_maybe_uninit_zeroed` unstable feature [3] was stabilized in
Rust 1.75.0, which we were using in the PHYLIB abstractions.

The only unstable features allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate
are still `new_uninit,offset_of`, though other code to be upstreamed
may increase the list.

Please see [4] for details.

# Other improvements

Rust 1.75.0 stabilized `pointer_byte_offsets` [5] which we could
potentially use as an alternative for `ptr_metadata` in the future.

# Required changes

For this upgrade, no changes were required (i.e. on our side).

# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing

The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded
at once.

There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates
needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer
infallible APIs coming from upstream.

Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative
approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and
the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only,
especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match
the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream.

Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in
the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot
potentially unintended changes to our additions.

To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following
to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream
Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after
applying this patch:

    # Get the difference with respect to the old version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

    # Apply this patch.
    git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch

    # Get the difference with respect to the new version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first
approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second
approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

f58b0abae8 scripts/min-tool-version.sh: Raise minimum clang version to 18.0.0 for loongarch 
The existing mainline clang development version encounters difficulties
compiling the LoongArch kernel module. It is anticipated that this issue
will be resolved in the upcoming 18.0.0 release. To prevent user
confusion arising from broken builds, it is advisable to raise the
minimum required clang version for LoongArch to 18.0.0.

2772ae4d66 modpost: Ignore relaxation and alignment marker relocs on LoongArch 
With recent trunk versions of binutils and gcc, alignment directives are
represented with R_LARCH_ALIGN relocs on LoongArch, which is necessary
for the linker to maintain alignment requirements during its relaxation
passes. And even though the kernel is built with relaxation disabled, so
far a small number of R_LARCH_RELAX marker relocs are still emitted as
part of la.* pseudo instructions in assembly. These two kinds of relocs
do not refer to symbols, which can trip up modpost's section mismatch
checks, because the r_offset of said relocs can be zero or any other
meaningless value, eventually leading to a `from == NULL` condition in
default_mismatch_handler and SIGSEGV.

As the two kinds of relocs are not concerned with symbols, just ignore
them for section mismatch check purposes.

efbd639835 scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: optionally use LLVM utilities 
GNU's addr2line can have problems parsing a vmlinux built with LLVM,
particularly when LTO was used.  In order to decode the traces correctly
this patch adds the ability to switch to LLVM's utilities readelf and
addr2line.  The same approach is followed by Will in [1].

Before:
  $ scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh vmlinux < kernel.log
  [17716.240635] Call trace:
  [17716.240646] skb_cow_data (??:?)
  [17716.240654] esp6_input (ld-temp.o:?)
  [17716.240666] xfrm_input (ld-temp.o:?)
  [17716.240674] xfrm6_rcv (??:?)
  [...]

After:
  $ LLVM=1 scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh vmlinux < kernel.log
  [17716.240635] Call trace:
  [17716.240646] skb_cow_data (include/linux/skbuff.h:2172 net/core/skbuff.c:4503)
  [17716.240654] esp6_input (net/ipv6/esp6.c:977)
  [17716.240666] xfrm_input (net/xfrm/xfrm_input.c:659)
  [17716.240674] xfrm6_rcv (net/ipv6/xfrm6_input.c:172)
  [...]

Note that one could set CROSS_COMPILE=llvm- instead to hack around this
issue.  However, doing so can break the decodecode routine as it will
force the selection of other LLVM utilities down the line e.g.  llvm-as.

b6964fe239 Rust changes for v6.8 
Another routine one in terms of features. In terms of lines, this time
 the 'alloc' version upgrade is less prominent, given that it was fairly
 small (and we did not have two upgrades).
 
 Toolchain and infrastructure:
 
  - Upgrade to Rust 1.74.1.
 
    The patch release includes a fix for an ICE that the Apple AGX GPU
    driver was hitting.
 
  - Support 'srctree'-relative links in Rust code documentation.
 
  - Automate part of the manual constants handling (i.e. the ones not
    recognised by 'bindgen').
 
  - Suppress searching builtin sysroot to avoid confusion with installed
    sysroots, needed for the to-be-merged arm64 support which uses
    a builtin target.
 
  - Ignore '__preserve_most' functions for 'bindgen'.
 
  - Reduce header inclusion bloat in exports.
 
 'kernel' crate:
 
  - Implement 'Debug' for 'CString'.
 
  - Make 'CondVar::wait()' an uninterruptible wait.
 
 'macros' crate:
 
  - Update 'paste!' to accept string literals.
 
  - Improve '#[vtable]' documentation.
 
 Documentation:

3e7aeb78ab Networking changes for 6.8. 
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. It
      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.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.8' of 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

A series from Baoquan He cleans up the asm-generic/io.h to remove the
 ioremap_uc() definition from everything except x86, which still needs it
 for pre-PAT systems. This series notably contains a patch from Jiaxun Yang
 that converts MIPS to use asm-generic/io.h like every other architecture
 does, enabling future cleanups.
 
 Some of my own patches fix -Wmissing-prototype warnings in architecture
 specific code across several architectures. This is now needed as the
 warning is enabled by default. There are still some remaining warnings
 in minor platforms, but the series should catch most of the widely used
 ones make them more consistent with one another.
 
 David McKay fixes a bug in __generic_cmpxchg_local() when this is used
 on 64-bit architectures. This could currently only affect parisc64
 and sparc64.
 
 Additional cleanups address from Linus Walleij, Uwe Kleine-König,
 Thomas Huth, and Kefeng Wang help reduce unnecessary inconsistencies
 between architectures.

16c36f8864 kbuild: deb-pkg: use build ID instead of debug link for dbg package 
There are two ways of managing separate debug info files:

 [1] The executable contains the .gnu_debuglink section, which specifies
     the name and the CRC of the separate debug info file.

 [2] The executable contains a build ID, and the corresponding debug info
     file is placed in the .build-id directory.

We could do both, but the former, which 'make deb-pkg' currently does,
results in complicated installation steps because we need to manually
strip the debug sections, create debug links, and re-sign the modules.

Commit 36862e14e3 ("kbuild: deb-pkg: use dh_listpackages to know
enabled packages") started to require the debhelper tool suite.

Use more dh_* commands in create_package():

 - dh_installdocs to install copyright
 - dh_installchangelogs to install changelog
 - dh_compress to compress changelog
 - dh_fixperms to replace the raw chmod command
 - dh_gencontrol to replace the raw dpkg-gencontrol command
 - dh_md5sums to record the md5sum of included files
 - dh_builddeb to replace the raw dpkg-deb command

Set DEB_RULES_REQUIRES_ROOT to 'no' in case debian/rules is executed
directly.

159956f34e kbuild: deb-pkg: set DEB_* variables if debian/rules is directly executed 
Since commit 491b146d4c ("kbuild: builddeb: Eliminate debian/arch
use"), direct execution of debian/rules results in the following error:

  dpkg-architecture: error: unknown option 'DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH'

The current code:

  dpkg-architecture -a$DEB_HOST_ARCH -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH

... does not look sensible because:

 - For this code to work correctly, DEB_HOST_ARCH must be pre-defined,
   which is true when the packages are built via dpkg-buildpackage.
   In this case, DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH is also likely defined, hence there
   is no need to query DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH in the first place.

 - If DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH is undefined, DEB_HOST_ARCH is likely undefined
   too. So, you cannot query DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH in this way. This is
   mostly the case where debian/rules is directly executed.

When debian/rules is directly executed, querying DEB_HOST_MUCHARCH is
not enough because we need to know DEB_{BUILD,HOST}_GNU_TYPE as well.

All DEB_* variables are defined when the package build is initiated by
dpkg-buildpackage, but otherwise, let's call dpkg-architecture to set
all DEB_* environment variables.

This requires dpkg 1.20.6 or newer because --print-format option
was added in dpkg commit 7c54fa2b232e ("dpkg-architecture: Add a
--print-format option").

2639772a11 get_maintainer: remove stray punctuation when cleaning file emails 
When parsing emails from .yaml files in particular, stray punctuation
such as a leading '-' can end up in the name.  For example, consider a
common YAML section such as:

  maintainers:
    - devicetree@vger.kernel.org

This would previously be processed by get_maintainer.pl as:

  - <devicetree@vger.kernel.org>

Make the logic in clean_file_emails more robust by deleting any
sub-names which consist of common single punctuation marks before
proceeding to the best-effort name extraction logic.  The output is then
correct:

  devicetree@vger.kernel.org

Some additional comments are added to the function to make things
clearer to future readers.

9c334eb9ce get_maintainer: correctly parse UTF-8 encoded names in files 
While the script correctly extracts UTF-8 encoded names from the
MAINTAINERS file, the regular expressions damage my name when parsing
from .yaml files.  Fix this by replacing the Latin-1-compatible regular
expressions with the unicode property matcher \p{L}, which matches on
any letter according to the Unicode General Category of letters.

The proposed solution only works if the script uses proper string
encoding from the outset, so instruct Perl to unconditionally open all
files with UTF-8 encoding.  This should be safe, as the entire source
tree is either UTF-8 or ASCII encoded anyway.  See [1] for a detailed
analysis.

Furthermore, to prevent the \w expression from matching non-ASCII when
checking for whether a name should be escaped with quotes, add the /a
flag to the regular expression.  The escaping logic was duplicated in
two places, so it has been factored out into its own function.

The original issue was also identified on the tools mailing list [2].
This should solve the observed side effects there as well.

436efd9e4b scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: strip unexpected CR from lines 
When the kernel log is acquired over a serial cable it is not uncommon for
the log to contain carriage return characters, in addition to the expected
line feeds.

When this output is feed into decode_stacktrace.sh, handle_line() fails to
strip the trailing ']' off the module name, which results in find_module()
not being able to find the referred to kernel module.  This is reported to
the user as:

  WARNING! Modules path isn't set, but is needed to parse this symbol

The solution is to reconfigure the serial port, or to strip the carriage
returns from the log, but this isn't obvious from the error reported by
the script.

Instead, make decode_stacktrace.sh more user friendly by stripping the
trailing carriage return.

66d25cbe29 scripts/checkstack.pl: match all stack sizes for some archs

three digit numbers starting with the number "3", or any higher number. 
Which means that it skips any stack sizes smaller than 304 bytes.  This
makes the checkstack script a bit less useful than it could be.

Change the script to match any number.  To be filtered out stack sizes can
be configured with the min_stack variable, which omits any stack frame
sizes smaller than 100 bytes by default.

This is similar with commit aab1f809d7 ("scripts/checkstack.pl: match

b88365b6d7 kbuild: deb-pkg: hard-code Build-Depends 
The condition to require libelf-dev:native is stale because objtool is
now enabled by CONFIG_OBJTOOL instead of CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC. Not only
objtool but also resolve_btfids requires libelf-dev:native; therefore,
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF should be checked as well.

Similarly, CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYRING is not the only case that
requires libssl-dev:native.

Perhaps, the following code would provide better coverage, but it is
hard to maintain (and may still be imperfect).

  if is_enabled CONFIG_OBJTOOL ||
     is_enabled CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF; then
          build_depends="${build_depends}, libelf-dev:native"
  fi

  if is_enabled CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYRING ||
     is_enabled CONFIG_SYSTEM_REVOCATION_LIST ||
     is_enabled CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORMAT; then
          build_depends="${build_depends}, libssl-dev:native"
  fi

Let's hard-code the build dependency.

9c65810cfb kbuild: deb-pkg: split debian/copyright from the mkdebian script 
Copy debian/copyright instead of generating it by the 'cat' command.

I also updated '2018' to '2023' while I was here.

1f7f31bf72 check-uapi: Introduce check-uapi.sh 
While the kernel community has been good at maintaining backwards
compatibility with kernel UAPIs, it would be helpful to have a tool
to check if a commit introduces changes that break backwards
compatibility.

To that end, introduce check-uapi.sh: a simple shell script that
checks for changes to UAPI headers using libabigail.

libabigail is "a framework which aims at helping developers and
software distributors to spot some ABI-related issues like interface
incompatibility in ELF shared libraries by performing a static
analysis of the ELF binaries at hand."

The script uses one of libabigail's tools, "abidiff", to compile the
changed header before and after the commit to detect any changes.

abidiff "compares the ABI of two shared libraries in ELF format. It
emits a meaningful report describing the differences between the two
ABIs."

The script also includes the ability to check the compatibility of
all UAPI headers across commits. This allows developers to inspect
the stability of the UAPIs over time.
