This patch is for stable only. Commit 5a09df20872c ("scripts/dtc: Update
to upstream version v1.7.2-69-g53373d135579") upstream applied it as
part of a regular scripts/dtc sync, which may be unsuitable for older
versions of stable where the warning it fixes is present.

A recent strengthening of -Wunused-but-set-variable (enabled with -Wall)
in clang under a new subwarning, -Wunused-but-set-global, points out an
unused static global variable in dtc-lexer.lex.c (compiled from
dtc-lexer.l):

  scripts/dtc/dtc-lexer.lex.c:641:12: warning: variable 'dts_version' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-global]
    641 | static int dts_version = 1;
        |            ^

Remove it to clear up the warning, as it is truly unused.

Fixes: 658f29a51e98 ("of/flattree: Update dtc to current mainline.")

[ Upstream commit 36c619f6bd793493294becb10a02fea370b67a91 ]

Add IDE support for host-side scripts written in Rust. This support has
been missing since these scripts were initially added in commit
9a8ff24ce584 ("scripts: add `generate_rust_target.rs`"), thus add it.

Change the existing instance of extension stripping to
`pathlib.Path.stem` to maintain code consistency.

commit d1db4118489fffd2b2f612140b7acbb477880839 upstream.

The Assisted-by tag was introduced in
Documentation/process/coding-assistants.rst for attributing AI tool
contributions to kernel patches.  However, checkpatch.pl did not recognize
this tag, causing two issues:

  WARNING: Non-standard signature: Assisted-by:
  ERROR: Unrecognized email address: 'AGENT_NAME:MODEL_VERSION'

Fix this by:
1. Adding Assisted-by to the recognized $signature_tags list
2. Skipping email validation for Assisted-by lines since they use the
   AGENT_NAME:MODEL_VERSION format instead of an email address
3. Warning when the Assisted-by value doesn't match the expected format

commit deb4605671cfae3b2803cfbbf4739e7245248398 upstream.

A recent strengthening of -Wunused-but-set-variable (enabled with -Wall)
in clang under a new subwarning, -Wunused-but-set-global, points out an
unused static global variable in scripts/mod/modpost.c:

  scripts/mod/modpost.c:59:13: error: variable 'extra_warn' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-global]
     59 | static bool extra_warn;
        |             ^

This variable has been unused since commit 6c6c1fc09de3 ("modpost:
require a MODULE_DESCRIPTION()") but that is expected, as there are
currently no extra warnings at W=1 right now. Declare the variable with
the unused attribute to make it clear to the compiler that this variable
may be unused.

[ Upstream commit f94711255a73d8938cf3bb405a0af3a4d2700ed1 ]

Stefano reports that after commit 62089b804895 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg:
Generate debuginfo package manually"), building with an rpm package
using rpm 4.20.0 fails with:

  RPM build errors:
      Dependency tokens must begin with alpha-numeric, '_' or '/': #�) = 0x0d000002
      Dependency tokens must begin with alpha-numeric, '_' or '/': �) = 0x0d000000

      Unknown rich dependency op 'Hat': (Red Hat 15.2.1-7)) = 0x4728203a43434800

This error comes from the automatic requirements feature of rpm. The
-debuginfo subpackage has no dependencies, so disable this feature with
'AutoReq: 0' for this subpackage, avoiding the error. This matches the
official %_debug_template macro that rpm provides. While automatic
provides should be default enabled, be explicit like %_debug_template
does.

Additionally, while in the area, add the manual debug information
package to the Development/Debug group, further aligning with
%_debug_template.

[ Upstream commit afdfb71c018e9a0aa2e51fb8186d3fb1acdd3f0e ]

Commit 62089b804895 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg: Generate debuginfo package
manually") added uses of OBJCOPY and READELF, variables from Kbuild.
These variables are defined and work properly when using the binrpm-pkg
target because rpmbuild is run within Kbuild. However, these variables
are not defined when building from a source RPM package generated with
the srcrpm-pkg target, breaking the build when generating the debug info
subpackage.

Define a default value for these variables so that these commands
respect the value from Kbuild but continue to work when built from a
source RPM package.

Commit 62089b804895 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg: Generate debuginfo package
manually") effectively reverted commit a7c699d090a1 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg:
build a debuginfo RPM") but the approach it took is not safe for older
RPM releases. Restore commit a7c699d090a1 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg: build a
debuginfo RPM") for the !CONFIG_MODULE_SIG case to allow more
environments and configurations to take advantage of the separate debug
information package process.

<title>kbuild: rpm-pkg: Restrict manual debug package creation</title>

[ Upstream commit 6d6b8b0e28c468263d7fcb071e5cb284ae343df2 ]

Commit 62089b804895 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg: Generate debuginfo package
manually") moved away from the built-in RPM machinery for generating
-debuginfo packages to a more manual way to be compatible with module
signing, as the built-in machinery strips the modules after the
installation process, breaking the signatures.

Unfortunately, prior to rpm 4.20.0, there is a bug where a custom %files
directive is ignored for a -debuginfo subpackage [1], meaning builds
using older versions of RPM (such as on RHEL9 or RHEL10) fail with:

  Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files .../rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/kernel-6.19.0_dirty-1.x86_64
  error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
     /debuginfo.list
     /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/09/748c214974bfba1522d434a7e0a02e2fd7f29b.debug
     /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/0b/b96dd9c7d3689d82e56d2e73b46f53103cc6c7.debug
     /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/0e/979a2f34967c7437fd30aabb41de1f0c8b6a66.debug
    ...

To workaround this, restrict the manual debug info package creation
process to when it is necessary (CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=y) and possible (when
using RPM &gt;= 4.20.0). A follow up change will restore the RPM debuginfo
creation process using a separate internal flag to allow the package to
be built in more situations, as RPM 4.20.0 is a fairly recent version
and the built-in -debuginfo generation works fine when module signing is
disabled.
