rust: support `srctree`-relative links

2023-12-21T19:54:17Z

Some of our links use relative paths in order to point to files in the source tree, e.g.: //! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](../../../../include/linux/printk.h) /// [`struct mutex`]: ../../../../include/linux/mutex.h These are problematic because they are hard to maintain and do not support `O=` builds. Instead, provide support for `srctree`-relative links, e.g.: //! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](srctree/include/linux/printk.h) /// [`struct mutex`]: srctree/include/linux/mutex.h The links are fixed after `rustdoc` generation to be based on the absolute path to the source tree. Essentially, this is the automatic version of Tomonori's fix [1], suggested by Gary [2].

rust: sync: Makes `CondVar::wait()` an uninterruptible wait

2023-12-21T19:54:17Z

Currently, `CondVar::wait()` is an interruptible wait, and this is different than `wait_event()` in include/linux/wait.h (which is an uninterruptible wait). To avoid confusion between different APIs on the interruptible/uninterruptible, make `CondVar::wait()` an uninterruptible wait same as `wait_event()`, also rename the old `wait()` to `CondVar::wait_interruptible()`.

rust: upgrade to Rust 1.74.1

2023-12-21T18:40:26Z

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.73.0 to 1.74.1 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized. Therefore, the only unstable features allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate are still `new_uninit,offset_of`, though other code to be upstreamed may increase the list (e.g. `offset_of` was added recently). Please see [3] for details. # Other improvements Rust 1.74.0 allows to use `#[repr(Rust)]` explicitly [4], which can be useful to be explicit about particular cases that would normally use e.g. the C representation, such as silencing lints like the upcoming additions we requested [5] to the `no_mangle_with_rust_abi` Clippy lint (which in turn triggered the `#[repr(Rust)]` addition). Rust 1.74.0 includes a fix for one of the false negative cases we reported in Clippy's `disallowed_macros` lint [6] that we would like to use in the future. Rust 1.74.1 fixes an ICE that the Apple AGX GPU driver was hitting [7]. # Required changes For this upgrade, no changes were required (i.e. on our side). # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded at once. There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer infallible APIs coming from upstream. Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only, especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream. Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot potentially unintended changes to our additions. To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after applying this patch: # Get the difference with respect to the old version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc # Apply this patch. git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch # Get the difference with respect to the new version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

rust: net::phy add module_phy_driver macro

2023-12-15T09:35:50Z

This macro creates an array of kernel's `struct phy_driver` and registers it. This also corresponds to the kernel's `MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE` macro, which embeds the information for module loading into the module binary file. A PHY driver should use this macro.

rust: core abstractions for network PHY drivers

2023-12-15T09:35:50Z

This patch adds abstractions to implement network PHY drivers; the driver registration and bindings for some of callback functions in struct phy_driver and many genphy_ functions. This feature is enabled with CONFIG_RUST_PHYLIB_ABSTRACTIONS=y. This patch enables unstable const_maybe_uninit_zeroed feature for kernel crate to enable unsafe code to handle a constant value with uninitialized data. With the feature, the abstractions can initialize a phy_driver structure with zero easily; instead of initializing all the members by hand. It's supposed to be stable in the not so distant future.

rust: Suppress searching builtin sysroot

2023-12-14T19:14:01Z

By default, if Rust is passed `--target=foo` rather than a target.json file, it will infer a default sysroot if that component is installed. As the proposed aarch64 support [1] uses `aarch64-unknown-none` rather than a target.json file, this is needed [2] to prevent rustc from being confused between the custom kernel sysroot and the pre-installed one. [ Miguel: Applied Boqun's extra case (for `rusttest`) and reworded to add links to the arm64 patch series discussion. In addition, fixed the `rustdoc` target too (which requires a conditional since `cmd_rustdoc` is also used for host crates like `macros`). ] Signed-off-by: Matthew Maurer Tested-by: Boqun Feng Reviewed-by: Alice Ryhl Link: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20231020155056.3495121-1-Jamie.Cunliffe@arm.com/ [1] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/CAGSQo01pOixiPXkW867h4vPUaAjtKtHGKhkV-rpifJvKxAf4Ww@mail.gmail.com/ [2] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231031201752.1189213-1-mmaurer@google.com Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda

rust: macros: improve `#[vtable]` documentation

2023-12-14T19:14:01Z

Traits marked with `#[vtable]` need to provide default implementations for optional functions. The C side represents these with `NULL` in the vtable, so the default functions are never actually called. We do not want to replicate the default behavior from C in Rust, because that is not maintainable. Therefore we should use `build_error` in those default implementations. The error message for that is provided at `kernel::error::VTABLE_DEFAULT_ERROR`.
