rust: enable `clippy::ptr_as_ptr` lint

2025-06-22T21:08:42Z

In Rust 1.51.0, Clippy introduced the `ptr_as_ptr` lint [1]: > Though `as` casts between raw pointers are not terrible, > `pointer::cast` is safer because it cannot accidentally change the > pointer's mutability, nor cast the pointer to other types like `usize`. There are a few classes of changes required: - Modules generated by bindgen are marked `#[allow(clippy::ptr_as_ptr)]`. - Inferred casts (` as _`) are replaced with `.cast()`. - Ascribed casts (` as *... T`) are replaced with `.cast::()`. - Multistep casts from references (` as *const _ as *const T`) are replaced with `core::ptr::from_ref(&x).cast()` with or without `::` according to the previous rules. The `core::ptr::from_ref` call is required because `(x as *const _).cast::()` results in inference failure. - Native literal C strings are replaced with `c_str!().as_char_ptr()`. - `*mut *mut T as _` is replaced with `let *mut *const T = (*mut *mut T)`.cast();` since pointer to pointer can be confusing. Apply these changes and enable the lint -- no functional change intended.

rust: alloc: implement `Borrow` and `BorrowMut` for `Vec`

2025-06-18T21:09:21Z

Implement `Borrow<[T]>` and `BorrowMut<[T]>` for `Vec`. This allows `Vec` to be used in generic APIs asking for types implementing those traits. `[T; N]` and `&mut [T]` also implement those traits allowing users to use either owned, borrowed and heap-owned values. The implementation leverages `as_slice` and `as_mut_slice`.

rust: vec: impl Default for Vec with any allocator

2025-06-11T14:35:10Z

The implementation of Default is restricted to only work with kmalloc vectors for no good reason. This means I have to use mem::replace(&mut my_vec, KVVec::new()) in Rust Binder instead of `mem::take(&mut my_vec)`. Thus, expand the impl of Default to work with any allocator including kvmalloc.

rust: remove unneeded Rust 1.87.0 `allow(clippy::ptr_eq)`

2025-05-22T09:46:50Z

For the Rust 1.87.0 release, Clippy was expected to warn with: error: use `core::ptr::eq` when comparing raw pointers --> rust/kernel/list.rs:438:12 | 438 | if self.first == item { | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: try: `core::ptr::eq(self.first, item)` | = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#ptr_eq = note: `-D clippy::ptr-eq` implied by `-D warnings` = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(clippy::ptr_eq)]` However, a backport to relax a bit the `clippy::ptr_eq` finally landed, and thus Clippy did not warn by the time the release happened. Thus remove the `allow`s added back then, which were added just in case the backport did not land in time. See commit a39f30870927 ("rust: allow Rust 1.87.0's `clippy::ptr_eq` lint") for details.

rust: alloc: add Vec::insert_within_capacity

2025-05-07T16:40:45Z

This adds a variant of Vec::insert that does not allocate memory. This makes it safe to use this function while holding a spinlock. Rust Binder uses it for the range allocator fast path.

rust: alloc: add Vec::remove

2025-05-07T16:40:02Z

This is needed by Rust Binder in the range allocator, and by upcoming GPU drivers during firmware initialization. Panics in the kernel are best avoided when possible, so an error is returned if the index is out of bounds. An error type is used rather than just returning Option to let callers handle errors with ?.

rust: alloc: add Vec::retain

2025-05-07T16:39:39Z

This adds a common Vec method called `retain` that removes all elements that don't match a certain condition. Rust Binder uses it to find all processes that match a given pid. The stdlib retain method takes &T rather than &mut T and has a separate retain_mut for the &mut T case. However, this is considered an API mistake that can't be fixed now due to backwards compatibility. There's no reason for us to repeat that mistake.

rust: alloc: add Vec::drain_all

2025-05-07T16:39:22Z

This is like the stdlib method drain, except that it's hard-coded to use the entire vector's range. Rust Binder uses it in the range allocator to take ownership of everything in a vector in a case where reusing the vector is desirable. Implementing `DrainAll` in terms of `slice::IterMut` lets us reuse some nice optimizations in core for the case where T is a ZST.
