Merge tag 'rust-v6.1-rc1' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux
Pull Rust introductory support from Kees Cook:
"The tree has a recent base, but has fundamentally been in linux-next
for a year and a half[1]. It's been updated based on feedback from the
Kernel Maintainer's Summit, and to gain recent Reviewed-by: tags.
Miguel is the primary maintainer, with me helping where needed/wanted.
Our plan is for the tree to switch to the standard non-rebasing
practice once this initial infrastructure series lands.
The contents are the absolute minimum to get Rust code building in the
kernel, with many more interfaces[2] (and drivers - NVMe[3], 9p[4], M1
GPU[5]) on the way.
The initial support of Rust-for-Linux comes in roughly 4 areas:
- Kernel internals (kallsyms expansion for Rust symbols, %pA format)
- Kbuild infrastructure (Rust build rules and support scripts)
- Rust crates and bindings for initial minimum viable build
- Rust kernel documentation and samples
Rust support has been in linux-next for a year and a half now, and the
short log doesn't do justice to the number of people who have
contributed both to the Linux kernel side but also to the upstream
Rust side to support the kernel's needs. Thanks to these 173 people,
and many more, who have been involved in all kinds of ways:
