Clippy triggered a false positive on its `new_ret_no_self` lint
when using the `pin_init!` macro. Since Rust 1.67.0, that does
not happen anymore, since Clippy learnt to not warn about
`-> impl Trait<Self>` [1][2].
The kernel nowadays uses Rust 1.72.1, thus remove the `#[allow]`.

This is the third upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.71.1 to 1.72.1
(i.e. the latest) [1].
See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").
# Unstable features
No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized.
Therefore, the only unstable feature allowed to be used outside
the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`, though other code to be
upstreamed may increase the list.
Please see [3] for details.
# Other improvements
Previously, the compiler could incorrectly generate a `.eh_frame`
section under `-Cpanic=abort`. We were hitting this bug when debug
assertions were enabled (`CONFIG_RUST_DEBUG_ASSERTIONS=y`) [4]:
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1
ld.lld: error: <internal>:(.eh_frame) is being placed in '.eh_frame'
Gary fixed the issue in Rust 1.72.0 [5].
# Required changes
For the upgrade, the following changes are required:
- A call to `Box::from_raw` in `rust/kernel/sync/arc.rs` now requires
an explicit `drop()` call. See previous patch for details.
# `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.

[ Used 1.72.1 instead of .0 (no changes in `alloc`) and reworded
to mention that we hit the `.eh_frame` bug under debug assertions. ]
Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
`Box::from_raw()` is `#[must_use]`, which means the result cannot
go unused.
In Rust 1.71.0, this was not detected because the block expression
swallows the diagnostic [1]:
unsafe { Box::from_raw(self.ptr.as_ptr()) };
It would have been detected, however, if the line had been instead:
unsafe { Box::from_raw(self.ptr.as_ptr()); }
i.e. the semicolon being inside the `unsafe` block, rather than
outside.
In Rust 1.72.0, the compiler started warning about this [2], so
without this patch we will get:
error: unused return value of `alloc::boxed::Box::<T>::from_raw` that must be used
--> rust/kernel/sync/arc.rs:302:22
|
302 | unsafe { Box::from_raw(self.ptr.as_ptr()) };
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
= note: call `drop(Box::from_raw(ptr))` if you intend to drop the `Box`
= note: `-D unused-must-use` implied by `-D warnings`
help: use `let _ = ...` to ignore the resulting value
|
302 | unsafe { let _ = Box::from_raw(self.ptr.as_ptr()); };
| +++++++ +
Thus add an add an explicit `drop()` as the `#[must_use]`'s
annotation suggests (instead of the more general help line).

This implements the `WorkItemPointer` trait for the pointer types that
you are likely to use the workqueue with. The `Arc` type is for
reference counted objects, and the `Pin<Box<T>>` type is for objects
where the caller has exclusive ownership of the object.

The main challenge with defining `work_struct` fields is making sure
that the function pointer stored in the `work_struct` is appropriate for
the work item type it is embedded in. It needs to know the offset of the
`work_struct` field being used (even if there are several!) so that it
can do a `container_of`, and it needs to know the type of the work item
so that it can call into the right user-provided code. All of this needs
to happen in a way that provides a safe API to the user, so that users
of the workqueue cannot mix up the function pointers.
There are three important pieces that are relevant when doing this:
* The pointer type.
* The work item struct. This is what the pointer points at.
* The `work_struct` field. This is a field of the work item struct.
This patch introduces a separate trait for each piece. The pointer type
is given a `WorkItemPointer` trait, which pointer types need to
implement to be usable with the workqueue. This trait will be
implemented for `Arc` and `Box` in a later patch in this patchset.
Implementing this trait is unsafe because this is where the
`container_of` operation happens, but user-code will not need to
implement it themselves.
The work item struct should then implement the `WorkItem` trait. This
trait is where user-code specifies what they want to happen when a work
item is executed. It also specifies what the correct pointer type is.
Finally, to make the work item struct know the offset of its
`work_struct` field, we use a trait called `HasWork<T, ID>`. If a type
implements this trait, then the type declares that, at the given offset,
there is a field of type `Work<T, ID>`. The trait is marked unsafe
because the OFFSET constant must be correct, but we provide an
`impl_has_work!` macro that can safely implement `HasWork<T>` on a type.
The macro expands to something that only compiles if the specified field
really has the type `Work<T>`. It is used like this:
```
struct MyWorkItem {
work_field: Work<MyWorkItem, 1>,
}
impl_has_work! {
impl HasWork<MyWorkItem, 1> for MyWorkItem { self.work_field }
}
```
Note that since the `Work` type is annotated with an id, you can have
several `work_struct` fields by using a different id for each one.

These methods can be used to turn an `Arc` into a raw pointer and back,
in a way that preserves the metadata for fat pointers.
This is done using the unstable ptr_metadata feature [1]. However, it
could also be done using the unstable pointer_byte_offsets feature [2],
which is likely to have a shorter path to stabilization than
ptr_metadata.

In terms of lines, most changes this time are on the pinned-init API
and infrastructure. While we have a Rust version upgrade, and thus a
bunch of changes from the vendored 'alloc' crate as usual, this time
those do not account for many lines.
Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Upgrade to Rust 1.71.1. This is the second such upgrade, which is a
smaller jump compared to the last time.
This version allows us to remove the '__rust_*' allocator functions
-- the compiler now generates them as expected, thus now our
'KernelAllocator' is used.
It also introduces the 'offset_of!' macro in the standard library
(as an unstable feature) which we will need soon. So far, we were
using a declarative macro as a prerequisite in some not-yet-landed
patch series, which did not support sub-fields (i.e. nested structs):
#[repr(C)]
struct S {
a: u16,
b: (u8, u8),
}
assert_eq!(offset_of!(S, b.1), 3);
- Upgrade to bindgen 0.65.1. This is the first time we upgrade its
version.
Given it is a fairly big jump, it comes with a fair number of
improvements/changes that affect us, such as a fix needed to support
LLVM 16 as well as proper support for '__noreturn' C functions, which
are now mapped to return the '!' type in Rust:
void __noreturn f(void); // C
pub fn f() -> !; // Rust
- 'scripts/rust_is_available.sh' improvements and fixes.
This series takes care of all the issues known so far and adds a few
new checks to cover for even more cases, plus adds some more help
texts. All this together will hopefully make problematic setups
easier to identify and to be solved by users building the kernel.
In addition, it adds a test suite which covers all branches of the
shell script, as well as tests for the issues found so far.
- Support rust-analyzer for out-of-tree modules too.
- Give 'cfg's to rust-analyzer for the 'core' and 'alloc' crates.
- Drop 'scripts/is_rust_module.sh' since it is not needed anymore.
Macros crate:
- New 'paste!' proc macro.
This macro is a more flexible version of 'concat_idents!': it allows
the resulting identifier to be used to declare new items and it
allows to transform the identifiers before concatenating them, e.g.
let x_1 = 42;
paste!(let [<x _2>] = [<x _1>];);
assert!(x_1 == x_2);
The macro is then used for several of the pinned-init API changes in
this pull.
Pinned-init API:
- Make '#[pin_data]' compatible with conditional compilation of fields,
allowing to write code like:
#[pin_data]
pub struct Foo {
#[cfg(CONFIG_BAR)]
a: Bar,
#[cfg(not(CONFIG_BAR))]
a: Baz,
}
- New '#[derive(Zeroable)]' proc macro for the 'Zeroable' trait, which
allows 'unsafe' implementations for structs where every field
implements the 'Zeroable' trait, e.g.:
#[derive(Zeroable)]
pub struct DriverData {
id: i64,
buf_ptr: *mut u8,
len: usize,
}
- Add '..Zeroable::zeroed()' syntax to the 'pin_init!' macro for
zeroing all other fields, e.g.:
pin_init!(Buf {
buf: [1; 64],
..Zeroable::zeroed()
});
- New '{,pin_}init_array_from_fn()' functions to create array
initializers given a generator function, e.g.:
let b: Box<[usize; 1_000]> = Box::init::<Error>(
init_array_from_fn(|i| i)
).unwrap();
assert_eq!(b.len(), 1_000);
assert_eq!(b[123], 123);
- New '{,pin_}chain' methods for '{,Pin}Init<T, E>' that allow to
execute a closure on the value directly after initialization, e.g.:
let foo = init!(Foo {
buf <- init::zeroed()
}).chain(|foo| {
foo.setup();
Ok(())
});
- Support arbitrary paths in init macros, instead of just identifiers
and generic types.
- Implement the 'Zeroable' trait for the 'UnsafeCell<T>' and
'Opaque<T>' types.
- Make initializer values inaccessible after initialization.
- Make guards in the init macros hygienic.
'allocator' module:
- Use 'krealloc_aligned()' in 'KernelAllocator::alloc' preventing
misaligned allocations when the Rust 1.71.1 upgrade is applied later
in this pull.
The equivalent fix for the previous compiler version (where
'KernelAllocator' is not yet used) was merged into 6.5 already,
which added the 'krealloc_aligned()' function used here.
- Implement 'KernelAllocator::{realloc, alloc_zeroed}' for performance,
using 'krealloc_aligned()' too, which forwards the call to the C API.
'types' module:
- Make 'Opaque' be '!Unpin', removing the need to add a 'PhantomPinned'
field to Rust structs that contain C structs which must not be moved.
- Make 'Opaque' use 'UnsafeCell' as the outer type, rather than inner.
Documentation:
- Suggest obtaining the source code of the Rust's 'core' library using
the tarball instead of the repository.
MAINTAINERS:
- Andreas and Alice, from Samsung and Google respectively, are joining
as reviewers of the "RUST" entry.
As well as a few other minor changes and cleanups.

implements the 'Zeroable' trait, e.g.:
#[derive(Zeroable)]
pub struct DriverData {
id: i64,
buf_ptr: *mut u8,
len: usize,
}
- Add '..Zeroable::zeroed()' syntax to the 'pin_init!' macro for
zeroing all other fields, e.g.:
pin_init!(Buf {
buf: [1; 64],
..Zeroable::zeroed()
});
- New '{,pin_}init_array_from_fn()' functions to create array
initializers given a generator function, e.g.:
let b: Box<[usize; 1_000]> = Box::init::<Error>(
init_array_from_fn(|i| i)
).unwrap();
assert_eq!(b.len(), 1_000);
assert_eq!(b[123], 123);
- New '{,pin_}chain' methods for '{,Pin}Init<T, E>' that allow to
execute a closure on the value directly after initialization, e.g.:
let foo = init!(Foo {
buf <- init::zeroed()
}).chain(|foo| {
foo.setup();
Ok(())
});
- Support arbitrary paths in init macros, instead of just identifiers
and generic types.
- Implement the 'Zeroable' trait for the 'UnsafeCell<T>' and
'Opaque<T>' types.
- Make initializer values inaccessible after initialization.
- Make guards in the init macros hygienic.
'allocator' module:
- Use 'krealloc_aligned()' in 'KernelAllocator::alloc' preventing
misaligned allocations when the Rust 1.71.1 upgrade is applied
later in this pull.
The equivalent fix for the previous compiler version (where
'KernelAllocator' is not yet used) was merged into 6.5 already,
which added the 'krealloc_aligned()' function used here.
- Implement 'KernelAllocator::{realloc, alloc_zeroed}' for
performance, using 'krealloc_aligned()' too, which forwards the
call to the C API.
'types' module:
- Make 'Opaque' be '!Unpin', removing the need to add a
'PhantomPinned' field to Rust structs that contain C structs which
must not be moved.
- Make 'Opaque' use 'UnsafeCell' as the outer type, rather than
inner.
Documentation:
- Suggest obtaining the source code of the Rust's 'core' library
using the tarball instead of the repository.

`UnsafeCell<T>` and `T` have the same layout so if `T` is `Zeroable`
then so should `UnsafeCell<T>` be. This allows using the derive macro
for `Zeroable` on types that contain an `UnsafeCell<T>`.
Since `Opaque<T>` contains a `MaybeUninit<T>`, all bytes zero is a valid
bit pattern for that type.

Previously only `ident` and generic types were supported in the
`{try_}{pin_}init!` macros. This patch allows arbitrary path fragments,
so for example `Foo::Bar` but also very complex paths such as
`<Foo as Baz>::Bar::<0, i32>`.
Internally this is accomplished by using `path` fragments. Due to some
peculiar declarative macro limitations, we have to "forget" certain
additional parsing information in the token trees. This is achieved by
using the `paste!` proc macro. It does not actually modify the input,
since no `[< >]` will be present in the input, so it just strips the
information held by declarative macros. For example, if a declarative
macro takes `$t:path` as its input, it cannot sensibly propagate this to
a macro that takes `$($p:tt)*` as its input, since the `$t` token will
only be considered one `tt` token for the second macro. If we first pipe
the tokens through `paste!`, then it parses as expected.

Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
Previously the init macros would create a local variable with the name
and hygiene of the field that is being initialized to store the value of
the field. This would override any user defined variables. For example:
```
struct Foo {
a: usize,
b: usize,
}
let a = 10;
let foo = init!(Foo{
a: a + 1, // This creates a local variable named `a`.
b: a, // This refers to that variable!
});
let foo = Box::init!(foo)?;
assert_eq!(foo.a, 11);
assert_eq!(foo.b, 11);
```
This patch changes this behavior, so the above code would panic at the
last assertion, since `b` would have value 10.

In the implementation of the init macros there is a `if false` statement
that type checks the initializer to ensure every field is initialized.
Since the next patch has a stack variable to store the struct, the
function might allocate too much memory on debug builds. Putting the
struct into a closure that is never executed ensures that even in debug
builds no stack overflow error is caused. In release builds this was not
a problem since the code was optimized away due to the `if false`.

Use hygienic identifiers for the guards instead of the field names. This
makes the init macros feel more like normal struct initializers, since
assigning identifiers with the name of a field does not create
conflicts.
Also change the internals of the guards, no need to make the `forget`
function `unsafe`, since users cannot access the guards anyways. Now the
guards are carried directly on the stack and have no extra `Cell<bool>`
field that marks if they have been forgotten or not, instead they are
just forgotten via `mem::forget`.

Both `core` and `alloc` have their `cfgs` (such as `no_rc`) missing
in `rust-project.json`.
To remedy this, pass the flags to `generate_rust_analyzer.py` for
them to be added to a dictionary where each key corresponds to
a crate and each value to a list of `cfg`s. The dictionary is then
used to pass the `cfg`s to each crate in the generated file (for
`core` and `alloc` only).

In LLVM 16, anonymous items may return names like `(unnamed union at ..)`
rather than empty names [1], which breaks Rust-enabled builds because
bindgen assumed an empty name instead of detecting them via

...
This was fixed in bindgen 0.62.0. Therefore, upgrade bindgen to
a more recent version, 0.65.1, to support LLVM 16.
Since bindgen 0.58.0 changed the `--{white,black}list-*` flags to
`--{allow,block}list-*` [3], update them on our side too.
In addition, bindgen 0.61.0 moved its CLI utility into a binary crate
called `bindgen-cli` [4]. Thus update the installation command in the
Quick Start guide.
Moreover, bindgen 0.61.0 changed the default functionality to bind
`size_t` to `usize` [5] and added the `--no-size_t-is-usize` flag
to not bind `size_t` as `usize`. Then bindgen 0.65.0 removed
the `--size_t-is-usize` flag [6]. Thus stop passing the flag to bindgen.
Finally, bindgen 0.61.0 added support for the `noreturn` attribute (in
its different forms) [7]. Thus remove the infinite loop in our Rust
panic handler after calling `BUG()`, since bindgen now correctly
generates a `BUG()` binding that returns `!` instead of `()`.

This is the second upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.68.2 to 1.71.1
(i.e. the latest).
See the upgrade policy [1] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").
# Unstable features
No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized.
Therefore, the only unstable feature allowed to be used outside
the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`, though other code to be
upstreamed may increase the list.
Please see [2] for details.
# Required changes
For the upgrade, this patch requires the following changes:
- Removal of the `__rust_*` allocator functions, together with
the addition of the `__rust_no_alloc_shim_is_unstable` static.
See [3] for details.
- Some more compiler builtins added due to `<f{32,64}>::midpoint()`
that got added in Rust 1.71 [4].
# `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.

With commit c1177979af ("btf, scripts: Exclude Rust CUs with pahole")
we are now able to use pahole directly to identify Rust compilation
units (CUs) and exclude them from generating BTF debugging information
(when DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled).
And if pahole doesn't support the --lang-exclude flag, we can't enable
both RUST and DEBUG_INFO_BTF at the same time.
So, in any case, the script is_rust_module.sh is just redundant and we
can drop it.
NOTE: we may also be able to drop the "Rust loadable module" mark
inside Rust modules, but it seems safer to keep it for now to make sure
we are not breaking any external tool that may potentially rely on it.

This macro provides a flexible way to concatenated identifiers together
and it allows the resulting identifier to be used to declare new items,
which `concat_idents!` does not allow. It also allows identifiers to be
transformed before concatenated.
The `concat_idents!` example
let x_1 = 42;
let x_2 = concat_idents!(x, _1);
assert!(x_1 == x_2);
can be written with `paste!` macro like this:
let x_1 = 42;
let x_2 = paste!([<x _1>]);
assert!(x_1 == x_2);
However `paste!` macro is more flexible because it can be used to create
a new variable:
let x_1 = 42;
paste!(let [<x _2>] = [<x _1>];);
assert!(x_1 == x_2);
While this is not possible with `concat_idents!`.
This macro is similar to the `paste!` crate [1], but this is a fresh
implementation to avoid vendoring large amount of code directly. Also, I
have augmented it to provide a way to specify span of the resulting
token, allowing precise control.
For example, this code is broken because the variable is declared inside
the macro, so Rust macro hygiene rules prevents access from the outside:
macro_rules! m {
($id: ident) => {
// The resulting token has hygiene of the macro.
paste!(let [<$id>] = 1;)
}
}
m!(a);
let _ = a;
In this version of `paste!` macro I added a `span` modifier to allow
this:
macro_rules! m {
($id: ident) => {
// The resulting token has hygiene of `$id`.
paste!(let [<$id:span>] = 1;)
}
}
m!(a);
let _ = a;

Adds a `PhantomPinned` field to `Opaque<T>`. This removes the last Rust
guarantee: the assumption that the type `T` can be freely moved. This is
not the case for many types from the C side (e.g. if they contain a
`struct list_head`). This change removes the need to add a
`PhantomPinned` field manually to Rust structs that contain C structs
which must not be moved.

When combining `UnsafeCell` with `MaybeUninit`, it is idiomatic to use
`UnsafeCell` as the outer type. Intuitively, this is because a
`MaybeUninit<T>` might not contain a `T`, but we always want the effect
of the `UnsafeCell`, even if the inner value is uninitialized.
Now, strictly speaking, this doesn't really make a difference. The
compiler will always apply the `UnsafeCell` effect even if the inner
value is uninitialized. But I think we should follow the convention
here.

Adds support for out-of-tree rust modules to use the `rust-analyzer`
make target to generate the rust-project.json file.
The change involves adding an optional parameter `external_src` to the
`generate_rust_analyzer.py` which expects the path to the out-of-tree
module's source directory. When this parameter is passed, I have chosen
not to add the non-core modules (samples and drivers) into the result
since these are not expected to be used in third party modules. Related
changes are also made to the Makefile and rust/Makefile allowing the
`rust-analyzer` target to be used for out-of-tree modules as well.

Currently the rust allocator simply passes the size of the type Layout
to krealloc(), and in theory the alignment requirement from the type
Layout may be larger than the guarantee provided by SLAB, which means
the allocated object is mis-aligned.
Fix this by adjusting the allocation size to the nearest power of two,
which SLAB always guarantees a size-aligned allocation. And because Rust
guarantees that the original size must be a multiple of alignment and
the alignment must be a power of two, then the alignment requirement is
satisfied.

Rust has documentation tests: these are typically examples of
usage of any item (e.g. function, struct, module...).
They are very convenient because they are just written
alongside the documentation. For instance:
/// Sums two numbers.
///
/// ```
/// assert_eq!(mymod::f(10, 20), 30);
/// ```
pub fn f(a: i32, b: i32) -> i32 {
a + b
}
In userspace, the tests are collected and run via `rustdoc`.
Using the tool as-is would be useful already, since it allows
to compile-test most tests (thus enforcing they are kept
in sync with the code they document) and run those that do not
depend on in-kernel APIs.
However, by transforming the tests into a KUnit test suite,
they can also be run inside the kernel. Moreover, the tests
get to be compiled as other Rust kernel objects instead of
targeting userspace.
On top of that, the integration with KUnit means the Rust
support gets to reuse the existing testing facilities. For
instance, the kernel log would look like:
KTAP version 1
1..1
KTAP version 1
# Subtest: rust_doctests_kernel
1..59
# rust_doctest_kernel_build_assert_rs_0.location: rust/kernel/build_assert.rs:13
ok 1 rust_doctest_kernel_build_assert_rs_0
# rust_doctest_kernel_build_assert_rs_1.location: rust/kernel/build_assert.rs:56
ok 2 rust_doctest_kernel_build_assert_rs_1
# rust_doctest_kernel_init_rs_0.location: rust/kernel/init.rs:122
ok 3 rust_doctest_kernel_init_rs_0
...
# rust_doctest_kernel_types_rs_2.location: rust/kernel/types.rs:150
ok 59 rust_doctest_kernel_types_rs_2
# rust_doctests_kernel: pass:59 fail:0 skip:0 total:59
# Totals: pass:59 fail:0 skip:0 total:59
ok 1 rust_doctests_kernel
Therefore, add support for running Rust documentation tests
in KUnit. Some other notes about the current implementation
and support follow.
The transformation is performed by a couple scripts written
as Rust hostprogs.
Tests using the `?` operator are also supported as usual, e.g.:
/// ```
/// # use kernel::{spawn_work_item, workqueue};
/// spawn_work_item!(workqueue::system(), || pr_info!("x"))?;
/// # Ok::<(), Error>(())
/// ```
The tests are also compiled with Clippy under `CLIPPY=1`, just
like normal code, thus also benefitting from extra linting.
The names of the tests are currently automatically generated.
This allows to reduce the burden for documentation writers,
while keeping them fairly stable for bisection. This is an
improvement over the `rustdoc`-generated names, which include
the line number; but ideally we would like to get `rustdoc` to
provide the Rust item path and a number (for multiple examples
in a single documented Rust item).
In order for developers to easily see from which original line
a failed doctests came from, a KTAP diagnostic line is printed
to the log, containing the location (file and line) of the
original test (i.e. instead of the location in the generated
Rust file):
# rust_doctest_kernel_types_rs_2.location: rust/kernel/types.rs:150
This line follows the syntax for declaring test metadata in the
proposed KTAP v2 spec [1], which may be used for the proposed
KUnit test attributes API [2]. Thus hopefully this will make
migration easier later on (suggested by David [3]).
The original line in that test attribute is figured out by
providing an anchor (suggested by Boqun [4]). The original file
is found by walking the filesystem, checking directory prefixes
to reduce the amount of combinations to check, and it is only
done once per file. Ambiguities are detected and reported.
A notable difference from KUnit C tests is that the Rust tests
appear to assert using the usual `assert!` and `assert_eq!`
macros from the Rust standard library (`core`). We provide
a custom version that forwards the call to KUnit instead.
Importantly, these macros do not require passing context,
unlike the KUnit C ones (i.e. `struct kunit *`). This makes
them easier to use, and readers of the documentation do not need
to care about which testing framework is used. In addition, it
may allow us to test third-party code more easily in the future.
However, a current limitation is that KUnit does not support
assertions in other tasks. Thus we presently simply print an
error to the kernel log if an assertion actually failed. This
should be revisited to properly fail the test, perhaps saving
the context somewhere else, or letting KUnit handle it.

Add a method for comparing whether two `Arc` pointers reference the same
underlying object.
This comparison can already be done by getting a reference to the inner
values and comparing whether the references have the same address.
However, writing `Arc::ptr_eq(a, b)` is generally less error-prone than
doing the same check on the references, since you might otherwise
accidentally compare the two `&Arc<T>` references instead, which wont
work because those are pointers to pointers to the inner value, when you
just want to compare the pointers to the inner value.
Also, this method might optimize better because getting a reference to
the inner value involves offsetting the pointer, which this method does
not need to do.

Currently, if the `kernel::error::Result` type is in scope (which is
often is, since it's in the kernel's prelude), you cannot write
`Result<T, SomeOtherErrorType>` when you want to use a different error
type than `kernel::error::Error`.
To solve this we change the error type from being hard-coded to just
being a default generic parameter. This still lets you write `Result<T>`
when you just want to use the `Error` error type, but also lets you
write `Result<T, SomeOtherErrorType>` when necessary.

When using `#[pin_data]` on a struct that used `Self` in the field
types, a type error would be emitted when trying to use `pin_init!`.
Since an internal type would be referenced by `Self` instead of the
defined struct.
This patch fixes this issue by replacing all occurrences of `Self` in
the `#[pin_data]` macro with the concrete type circumventing the issue.
Since rust allows type definitions inside of blocks, which are
expressions, the macro also checks for these and emits a compile error
when it finds `trait`, `enum`, `union`, `struct` or `impl`. These
keywords allow creating new `Self` contexts, which conflicts with the
current implementation of replacing every `Self` ident. If these were
allowed, some `Self` idents would be replaced incorrectly.

This is the first upgrade to the Rust toolchain since the initial Rust
merge, from 1.62.0 to 1.68.2 (i.e. the latest).
# Context
The kernel currently supports only a single Rust version [1] (rather
than a minimum) given our usage of some "unstable" Rust features [2]
which do not promise backwards compatibility.
The goal is to reach a point where we can declare a minimum version for
the toolchain. For instance, by waiting for some of the features to be
stabilized. Therefore, the first minimum Rust version that the kernel
will support is "in the future".
# Upgrade policy
Given we will eventually need to reach that minimum version, it would be
ideal to upgrade the compiler from time to time to be as close as
possible to that goal and find any issues sooner. In the extreme, we
could upgrade as soon as a new Rust release is out. Of course, upgrading
so often is in stark contrast to what one normally would need for GCC
and LLVM, especially given the release schedule: 6 weeks for Rust vs.
half a year for LLVM and a year for GCC.
Having said that, there is no particular advantage to updating slowly
either: kernel developers in "stable" distributions are unlikely to be
able to use their distribution-provided Rust toolchain for the kernel
anyway [3]. Instead, by routinely upgrading to the latest instead,
kernel developers using Linux distributions that track the latest Rust
release may be able to use those rather than Rust-provided ones,
especially if their package manager allows to pin / hold back /
downgrade the version for some days during windows where the version may
not match. For instance, Arch, Fedora, Gentoo and openSUSE all provide
and track the latest version of Rust as they get released every 6 weeks.
Then, when the minimum version is reached, we will stop upgrading and
decide how wide the window of support will be. For instance, a year of
Rust versions. We will probably want to start small, and then widen it
over time, just like the kernel did originally for LLVM, see commit
3519c4d6e0 ("Documentation: add minimum clang/llvm version").
# Unstable features stabilized
This upgrade allows us to remove the following unstable features since
they were stabilized:
- `feature(explicit_generic_args_with_impl_trait)` (1.63).
- `feature(core_ffi_c)` (1.64).
- `feature(generic_associated_types)` (1.65).
- `feature(const_ptr_offset_from)` (1.65, *).
- `feature(bench_black_box)` (1.66, *).
- `feature(pin_macro)` (1.68).
The ones marked with `*` apply only to our old `rust` branch, not
mainline yet, i.e. only for code that we may potentially upstream.
With this patch applied, the only unstable feature allowed to be used
outside the `kernel` crate is `new_uninit`, though other code to be
upstreamed may increase the list.
Please see [2] for details.
# Other required changes
Since 1.63, `rustdoc` triggers the `broken_intra_doc_links` lint for
links pointing to exported (`#[macro_export]`) `macro_rules`. An issue
was opened upstream [4], but it turns out it is intended behavior. For
the moment, just add an explicit reference for each link. Later we can
revisit this if `rustdoc` removes the compatibility measure.
Nevertheless, this was helpful to discover a link that was pointing to
the wrong place unintentionally. Since that one was actually wrong, it
is fixed in a previous commit independently.
Another change was the addition of `cfg(no_rc)` and `cfg(no_sync)` in
upstream [5], thus remove our original changes for that.
Similarly, upstream now tests that it compiles successfully with
`#[cfg(not(no_global_oom_handling))]` [6], which allow us to get rid
of some changes, such as an `#[allow(dead_code)]`.
In addition, remove another `#[allow(dead_code)]` due to new uses
within the standard library.
Finally, add `try_extend_trusted` and move the code in `spec_extend.rs`
since upstream moved it for the infallible version.
# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing
There are a large amount of changes, but the vast majority of them 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.

Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
`Arc<T>::init` refers to `Arc<T>::pin_init` via an intra-doc link
using the text `pin_init`, rather than more explicitly, which makes
`rustdoc` point it to the `pin_init!` macro instead.
This is required for the compiler upgrade since the newer `rustdoc`
would trigger the `broken_intra_doc_links` lint [1], but in this case
the macro was not the intended target to begin with, and so the actual
fix is to make it point to the right place, regardless of the upgrade.
Thus make it more explicit.

More additions to the Rust core. Importantly, this adds the pin-init
API, which will be used by other abstractions, such as the
synchronization ones added here too:
- pin-init API: a solution for the safe pinned initialization problem.
This allows to reduce the need for 'unsafe' code in the kernel when
dealing with data structures that require a stable address. Commit
90e53c5e70 ("rust: add pin-init API core") contains a nice
introduction -- here is an example of how it looks like:
#[pin_data]
struct Example {
#[pin]
value: Mutex<u32>,
#[pin]
value_changed: CondVar,
}
impl Example {
fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> {
pin_init!(Self {
value <- new_mutex!(0),
value_changed <- new_condvar!(),
})
}
}
// In a `Box`.
let b = Box::pin_init(Example::new())?;
// In the stack.
stack_pin_init!(let s = Example::new());
- 'sync' module: new types 'LockClassKey' ('struct lock_class_key'),
'Lock', 'Guard', 'Mutex' ('struct mutex'), 'SpinLock'
('spinlock_t'), 'LockedBy' and 'CondVar' (uses 'wait_queue_head_t'),
plus macros such as 'static_lock_class!' and 'new_spinlock!'.
In particular, 'Lock' and 'Guard' are generic implementations that
contain code that is common to all locks. Then, different backends
(the new 'Backend' trait) are implemented and used to define types
like 'Mutex':
type Mutex<T> = Lock<T, MutexBackend>;
In addition, new methods 'assume_init()', 'init_with()' and
'pin_init_with()' for 'UniqueArc<MaybeUninit<T>>' and 'downcast()'
for 'Arc<dyn Any + Send + Sync>'; as well as 'Debug' and 'Display'
implementations for 'Arc' and 'UniqueArc'. Reduced stack usage of
'UniqueArc::try_new_uninit()', too.
- 'types' module: new trait 'AlwaysRefCounted' and new type 'ARef'
(an owned reference to an always-reference-counted object, meant to
be used in wrappers for C types that have their own ref counting
functions).
Moreover, new associated functions 'raw_get()' and 'ffi_init()'
for 'Opaque'.
- New 'task' module with a new type 'Task' ('struct task_struct'), and
a new macro 'current!' to safely get a reference to the current one.
- New 'ioctl' module with new '_IOC*' const functions (equivalent to
the C macros).
- New 'uapi' crate, intended to be accessible by drivers directly.
- 'macros' crate: new 'quote!' macro (similar to the one provided in
userspace by the 'quote' crate); and the 'module!' macro now allows

- 'error' module: new associated functions for the 'Error' type,

In the future, we would also like to add additional checks to ensure

This is the traditional condition variable or monitor synchronisation
primitive. It is implemented with C's `wait_queue_head_t`.
It allows users to release a lock and go to sleep while guaranteeing
that notifications won't be missed. This is achieved by enqueuing a wait
entry before releasing the lock.

It releases the lock, executes some function provided by the caller,
then reacquires the lock. This is preparation for the implementation of
condvars, which will sleep after between unlocking and relocking.
We need an explicit `relock` method for primitives like `SpinLock` that
have an irqsave variant: we use the guard state to determine if the lock
was originally acquired with the regular `lock` function or
`lock_irqsave`.

`UniqueArc::try_new_uninit` calls `Arc::try_new(MaybeUninit::uninit())`.
This results in the uninitialized memory being placed on the stack,
which may be arbitrarily large due to the generic `T` and thus could
cause a stack overflow for large types.
Change the implementation to use the pin-init API which enables in-place
initialization. In particular it avoids having to first construct and
then move the uninitialized memory from the stack into the final location.

This API is used to facilitate safe pinned initialization of structs. It
replaces cumbersome `unsafe` manual initialization with elegant safe macro
invocations.
Due to the size of this change it has been split into six commits:
1. This commit introducing the basic public interface: traits and
functions to represent and create initializers.
2. Adds the `#[pin_data]`, `pin_init!`, `try_pin_init!`, `init!` and
`try_init!` macros along with their internal types.
3. Adds the `InPlaceInit` trait that allows using an initializer to create
an object inside of a `Box<T>` and other smart pointers.
4. Adds the `PinnedDrop` trait and adds macro support for it in
the `#[pin_data]` macro.
5. Adds the `stack_pin_init!` macro allowing to pin-initialize a struct on
the stack.
6. Adds the `Zeroable` trait and `init::zeroed` function to initialize
types that have `0x00` in all bytes as a valid bit pattern.
--
In this section the problem that the new pin-init API solves is outlined.
This message describes the entirety of the API, not just the parts
introduced in this commit. For a more granular explanation and additional
information on pinning and this issue, view [1].
Pinning is Rust's way of enforcing the address stability of a value. When a
value gets pinned it will be impossible for safe code to move it to another
location. This is done by wrapping pointers to said object with `Pin<P>`.
This wrapper prevents safe code from creating mutable references to the
object, preventing mutable access, which is needed to move the value.
`Pin<P>` provides `unsafe` functions to circumvent this and allow
modifications regardless. It is then the programmer's responsibility to
uphold the pinning guarantee.
Many kernel data structures require a stable address, because there are
foreign pointers to them which would get invalidated by moving the
structure. Since these data structures are usually embedded in structs to
use them, this pinning property propagates to the container struct.
Resulting in most structs in both Rust and C code needing to be pinned.
So if we want to have a `mutex` field in a Rust struct, this struct also
needs to be pinned, because a `mutex` contains a `list_head`. Additionally
initializing a `list_head` requires already having the final memory
location available, because it is initialized by pointing it to itself. But
this presents another challenge in Rust: values have to be initialized at
all times. There is the `MaybeUninit<T>` wrapper type, which allows
handling uninitialized memory, but this requires using the `unsafe` raw
pointers and a casting the type to the initialized variant.
This problem gets exacerbated when considering encapsulation and the normal
safety requirements of Rust code. The fields of the Rust `Mutex<T>` should
not be accessible to normal driver code. After all if anyone can modify
the fields, there is no way to ensure the invariants of the `Mutex<T>` are
upheld. But if the fields are inaccessible, then initialization of a
`Mutex<T>` needs to be somehow achieved via a function or a macro. Because
the `Mutex<T>` must be pinned in memory, the function cannot return it by
value. It also cannot allocate a `Box` to put the `Mutex<T>` into, because
that is an unnecessary allocation and indirection which would hurt
performance.
The solution in the rust tree (e.g. this commit: [2]) that is replaced by
this API is to split this function into two parts:
1. A `new` function that returns a partially initialized `Mutex<T>`,
2. An `init` function that requires the `Mutex<T>` to be pinned and that
fully initializes the `Mutex<T>`.
Both of these functions have to be marked `unsafe`, since a call to `new`
needs to be accompanied with a call to `init`, otherwise using the
`Mutex<T>` could result in UB. And because calling `init` twice also is not
safe. While `Mutex<T>` initialization cannot fail, other structs might
also have to allocate memory, which would result in conditional successful
initialization requiring even more manual accommodation work.
Combine this with the problem of pin-projections -- the way of accessing
fields of a pinned struct -- which also have an `unsafe` API, pinned
initialization is riddled with `unsafe` resulting in very poor ergonomics.
Not only that, but also having to call two functions possibly multiple
lines apart makes it very easy to forget it outright or during refactoring.
Here is an example of the current way of initializing a struct with two
synchronization primitives (see [3] for the full example):
struct SharedState {
state_changed: CondVar,
inner: Mutex<SharedStateInner>,
}
impl SharedState {
fn try_new() -> Result<Arc<Self>> {
let mut state = Pin::from(UniqueArc::try_new(Self {
// SAFETY: `condvar_init!` is called below.
state_changed: unsafe { CondVar::new() },
// SAFETY: `mutex_init!` is called below.
inner: unsafe {
Mutex::new(SharedStateInner { token_count: 0 })
},
})?);
// SAFETY: `state_changed` is pinned when `state` is.
let pinned = unsafe {
state.as_mut().map_unchecked_mut(|s| &mut s.state_changed)
};
kernel::condvar_init!(pinned, "SharedState::state_changed");
// SAFETY: `inner` is pinned when `state` is.
let pinned = unsafe {
state.as_mut().map_unchecked_mut(|s| &mut s.inner)
};
kernel::mutex_init!(pinned, "SharedState::inner");
Ok(state.into())
}
}
The pin-init API of this patch solves this issue by providing a
comprehensive solution comprised of macros and traits. Here is the example
from above using the pin-init API:
#[pin_data]
struct SharedState {
#[pin]
state_changed: CondVar,
#[pin]
inner: Mutex<SharedStateInner>,
}
impl SharedState {
fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> {
pin_init!(Self {
state_changed <- new_condvar!("SharedState::state_changed"),
inner <- new_mutex!(
SharedStateInner { token_count: 0 },
"SharedState::inner",
),
})
}
}
Notably the way the macro is used here requires no `unsafe` and thus comes
with the usual Rust promise of safe code not introducing any memory
violations. Additionally it is now up to the caller of `new()` to decide
the memory location of the `SharedState`. They can choose at the moment
`Arc<T>`, `Box<T>` or the stack.
--
The API has the following architecture:
1. Initializer traits `PinInit<T, E>` and `Init<T, E>` that act like
closures.
2. Macros to create these initializer traits safely.
3. Functions to allow manually writing initializers.
The initializers (an `impl PinInit<T, E>`) receive a raw pointer pointing
to uninitialized memory and their job is to fully initialize a `T` at that
location. If initialization fails, they return an error (`E`) by value.
This way of initializing cannot be safely exposed to the user, since it
relies upon these properties outside of the control of the trait:
- the memory location (slot) needs to be valid memory,
- if initialization fails, the slot should not be read from,
- the value in the slot should be pinned, so it cannot move and the memory
cannot be deallocated until the value is dropped.
This is why using an initializer is facilitated by another trait that
ensures these requirements.
These initializers can be created manually by just supplying a closure that
fulfills the same safety requirements as `PinInit<T, E>`. But this is an
`unsafe` operation. To allow safe initializer creation, the `pin_init!` is
provided along with three other variants: `try_pin_init!`, `try_init!` and
`init!`. These take a modified struct initializer as a parameter and
generate a closure that initializes the fields in sequence.
The macros take great care in upholding the safety requirements:
- A shadowed struct type is used as the return type of the closure instead
of `()`. This is to prevent early returns, as these would prevent full
initialization.
- To ensure every field is only initialized once, a normal struct
initializer is placed in unreachable code. The type checker will emit
errors if a field is missing or specified multiple times.
- When initializing a field fails, the whole initializer will fail and
automatically drop fields that have been initialized earlier.
- Only the correct initializer type is allowed for unpinned fields. You
cannot use a `impl PinInit<T, E>` to initialize a structurally not pinned
field.
To ensure the last point, an additional macro `#[pin_data]` is needed. This
macro annotates the struct itself and the user specifies structurally
pinned and not pinned fields.
Because dropping a pinned struct is also not allowed to break the pinning
invariants, another macro attribute `#[pinned_drop]` is needed. This
macro is introduced in a following commit.
These two macros also have mechanisms to ensure the overall safety of the
API. Additionally, they utilize a combined proc-macro, declarative macro
design: first a proc-macro enables the outer attribute syntax `#[...]` and
does some important pre-parsing. Notably this prepares the generics such
that the declarative macro can handle them using token trees. Then the
actual parsing of the structure and the emission of code is handled by a
declarative macro.
For pin-projections the crates `pin-project` [4] and `pin-project-lite` [5]
had been considered, but were ultimately rejected:
- `pin-project` depends on `syn` [6] which is a very big dependency, around
50k lines of code.
- `pin-project-lite` is a more reasonable 5k lines of code, but contains a
very complex declarative macro to parse generics. On top of that it
would require modification that would need to be maintained
independently.

in, it will be converted to EINVAL.

[ Mark the new associated functions as `#[allow(dead_code)]`. ]

This is the Rust equivalent to ERR_PTR(), for use in C callbacks.
Marked as #[allow(dead_code)] for now, since it does not have any
consumers yet.

This is kernel code, so specifying "kernel" is redundant. Let's simplify
things and just call it to_errno().
