From 9cc63f8bcd560c760d0b12e15bba8f81c86237cf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2026 15:43:51 -0700 Subject: Merge branches 'expcb.2026.07.24a', 'misc.2026.07.30a', 'rcu-tasks.2026.07.30a', 'srcu.2026.08.11a' and 'torture.2026.08.14a' into HEAD Changes: Make expedited grace periods expedite normal RCU callbacks Miscellaneous fixes: * Improve diagnostic output with character task states. * Mark accesses to inform KCSAN of concurrency design. * Move from kmalloc() to kmalloc_obj(). * Documentation updates. * Improve handling of RCU deferred quiescent states. * Clean up unused function arguments and structure fields. * Reduce show_rcu_gp_kthreads() stack space. Tasks RCU updates: * Clean up after SRCU re-implementation of Tasks Trace RCU. * Mark accesses to inform KCSAN of concurrency design. * Add ->lazy_timer status to diagnostic output. * Remove an unnecessary memory barrier. * Fix a data race, courtesy of KCSAN. * Documentation updates. * Convert cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() from macro to static inline function. SRCU updates: * Add Rust helpers for SRCU. * Avoid losing queued work at cleanup_srcu_struct() time. Torture-test updates: * Preparation work for immediate RCU priority deboosting. * Test RCU readers from real interrupt handlers (as opposed to softirq). * Simplify code through use of cpumask_next_wrap(). * Improve diagnostic output with character task states. * Add rcutorture.nwriters parameter to allow lightweight stall testing, and rcutorture.stall_only to make doing so easier. * Test an RCU Tasks Trace grace period implying an RCU grace period. * Make RCU Tasks Trace torturing track reader batches. * Fix a data race, courtesy of KCSAN. * Plug a shuffle_tmp_mask memory leak on kthread spawn failure. --- scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig | 39 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 39 insertions(+) create mode 100644 scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig (limited to 'scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig') diff --git a/scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig b/scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig new file mode 100644 index 000000000..6b34ba193 --- /dev/null +++ b/scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig @@ -0,0 +1,39 @@ +# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only +config HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS + bool + help + An arch should select this symbol if it supports building with + GCC plugins. + +menuconfig GCC_PLUGINS + bool "GCC plugins" + depends on HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS + depends on CC_IS_GCC + depends on $(success,test -e $(shell,$(CC) -print-file-name=plugin)/include/plugin-version.h) + default y + help + GCC plugins are loadable modules that provide extra features to the + compiler.
