Remove WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM kernel config option [ Upstream commit 7dff99b354601dd01829e1511711846e04340a69 ] This config option goes way back - it used to be an internal debug option to random.c (at that point called DEBUG_RANDOM_BOOT), then was renamed and exposed as a config option as CONFIG_WARN_UNSEEDED_RANDOM, and then further renamed to the current CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM. It was all done with the best of intentions: the more limited rate-limited reports were reporting some cases, but if you wanted to see all the gory details, you'd enable this "ALL" option. However, it turns out - perhaps not surprisingly - that when people don't care about and fix the first rate-limited cases, they most certainly don't care about any others either, and so warning about all of them isn't actually helping anything. And the non-ratelimited reporting causes problems, where well-meaning people enable debug options, but the excessive flood of messages that nobody cares about will hide actual real information when things go wrong. I just got a kernel bug report (which had nothing to do with randomness) where two thirds of the the truncated dmesg was just variations of random: get_random_u32 called from __get_random_u32_below+0x10/0x70 with crng_init=0 and in the process early boot messages had been lost (in addition to making the messages that _hadn't_ been lost harder to read). The proper way to find these things for the hypothetical developer that cares - if such a person exists - is almost certainly with boot time tracing. That gives you the option to get call graphs etc too, which is likely a requirement for fixing any problems anyway. See Documentation/trace/boottime-trace.rst for that option. And if we for some reason do want to re-introduce actual printing of these things, it will need to have some uniqueness filtering rather than this "just print it all" model.

kbuild: Show marked Kconfig fragments in "help" Currently the Kconfig fragments in kernel/configs and arch/*/configs that aren't used internally aren't discoverable through "make help", which consists of hard-coded lists of config fragments. Instead, list all the fragment targets that have a "# Help: " comment prefix so the targets can be generated dynamically. Add logic to the Makefile to search for and display the fragment and comment. Add comments to fragments that are intended to be direct targets.

mm/slab: rename CONFIG_SLAB to CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED As discussed at LSF/MM [1] [2] and with no objections raised there, deprecate the SLAB allocator. Rename the user-visible option so that users with CONFIG_SLAB=y get a new prompt with explanation during make oldconfig, while make olddefconfig will just switch to SLUB. In all defconfigs with CONFIG_SLAB=y remove the line so those also switch to SLUB. Regressions due to the switch should be reported to linux-mm and slab maintainers.
