Merge tag 'driver-core-6.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

2025-01-28T20:25:12Z

Pull driver core and debugfs updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1. Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window. There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at least one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is working on tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone else's linux-next use), it does not seem like a big issue at the moment. Here's a short list of the things in here: - driver core rust bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o functions. We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now, depending on what you want to do. - misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use them - debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing things in complex ways. - driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall. - other small fixes and updates All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved "soon"" * tag 'driver-core-6.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (95 commits) rust: device: Use as_char_ptr() to avoid explicit cast rust: device: Replace CString with CStr in property_present() devcoredump: Constify 'struct bin_attribute' devcoredump: Define 'struct bin_attribute' through macro rust: device: Add property_present() saner replacement for debugfs_rename() orangefs-debugfs: don't mess with ->d_name octeontx2: don't mess with ->d_parent or ->d_parent->d_name arm_scmi: don't mess with ->d_parent->d_name slub: don't mess with ->d_name sof-client-ipc-flood-test: don't mess with ->d_name qat: don't mess with ->d_name xhci: don't mess with ->d_iname mtu3: don't mess wiht ->d_iname greybus/camera - stop messing with ->d_iname mediatek: stop messing with ->d_iname netdevsim: don't embed file_operations into your structs b43legacy: make use of debugfs_get_aux() b43: stop embedding struct file_operations into their objects carl9170: stop embedding file_operations into their objects ...

module: sign with sha512 instead of sha1 by default

2025-01-26T12:05:24Z

Switch away from using sha1 for module signing by default and use the more modern sha512 instead, which is what among others Arch, Fedora, RHEL, and Ubuntu are currently using for their kernels. Sha1 has not been considered secure against well-funded opponents since 2005[1]; since 2011 the NIST and other organizations furthermore recommended its replacement[2]. This is why OpenSSL on RHEL9, Fedora Linux 41+[3], and likely some other current and future distributions reject the creation of sha1 signatures, which leads to a build error of allmodconfig configurations: 80A20474797F0000:error:03000098:digital envelope routines:do_sigver_init:invalid digest:crypto/evp/m_sigver.c:342: make[4]: *** [.../certs/Makefile:53: certs/signing_key.pem] Error 1 make[4]: *** Deleting file 'certs/signing_key.pem' make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[3]: *** [.../scripts/Makefile.build:478: certs] Error 2 make[2]: *** [.../Makefile:1936: .] Error 2 make[1]: *** [.../Makefile:224: __sub-make] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '...' make: *** [Makefile:224: __sub-make] Error 2 This change makes allmodconfig work again and sets a default that is more appropriate for current and future users, too.

module: Don't fail module loading when setting ro_after_init section RO failed

2025-01-26T12:05:24Z

Once module init has succeded it is too late to cancel loading. If setting ro_after_init data section to read-only fails, all we can do is to inform the user through a warning.

module: Split module_enable_rodata_ro()

2025-01-26T12:05:24Z

module_enable_rodata_ro() is called twice, once before module init to set rodata sections readonly and once after module init to set rodata_after_init section readonly. The second time, only the rodata_after_init section needs to be set to read-only, no need to re-apply it to already set rodata. Split module_enable_rodata_ro() in two.

module: sysfs: Add notes attributes through attribute_group

2025-01-26T12:05:24Z

A kobject is meant to manage the lifecycle of some resource. However the module sysfs code only creates a kobject to get a "notes" subdirectory in sysfs. This can be achieved easier and cheaper by using a sysfs group. Switch the notes attribute code to such a group, similar to how the section allocation in the same file already works.

module: sysfs: Simplify section attribute allocation

2025-01-26T12:05:24Z

The existing allocation logic manually stuffs two allocations into one. This is hard to understand and of limited value, given that all the section names are allocated on their own anyways. Une one allocation per datastructure.
