Merge tag 'rust-6.11' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux
Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "The highlight is the establishment of a minimum version for the Rust toolchain, including 'rustc' (and bundled tools) and 'bindgen'. The initial minimum will be the pinned version we currently have, i.e. we are just widening the allowed versions. That covers three stable Rust releases: 1.78.0, 1.79.0, 1.80.0 (getting released tomorrow), plus beta, plus nightly. This should already be enough for kernel developers in distributions that provide recent Rust compiler versions routinely, such as Arch Linux, Debian Unstable (outside the freeze period), Fedora Linux, Gentoo Linux (especially the testing channel), Nix (unstable) and openSUSE Slowroll and Tumbleweed. In addition, the kernel is now being built-tested by Rust's pre-merge CI. That is, every change that is attempting to land into the Rust compiler is tested against the kernel, and it is merged only if it passes. Similarly, the bindgen tool has agreed to build the kernel in their CI too. Thus, with the pre-merge CI in place, both projects hope to avoid unintentional changes to Rust that break the kernel. This means that, in general, apart from intentional changes on their side (that we will need to workaround conditionally on our side), the upcoming Rust compiler versions should generally work. In addition, the Rust project has proposed getting the kernel into stable Rust (at least solving the main blockers) as one of its three flagship goals for 2024H2 [1]. I would like to thank Niko, Sid, Emilio et al. for their help promoting the collaboration between Rust and the kernel. Toolchain and infrastructure: - Support several Rust toolchain versions. - Support several bindgen versions. - Remove 'cargo' requirement and simplify 'rusttest', thanks to 'alloc' having been dropped last cycle. - Provide proper error reporting for the 'rust-analyzer' target. 'kernel' crate: - Add 'uaccess' module with a safe userspace pointers abstraction. - Add 'page' module with a 'struct page' abstraction. - Support more complex generics in workqueue's 'impl_has_work!' macro. 'macros' crate: - Add 'firmware' field support to the 'module!' macro. - Improve 'module!' macro documentation. Documentation: - Provide instructions on what packages should be installed to build the kernel in some popular Linux distributions. - Introduce the new kernel.org LLVM+Rust toolchains. - Explain '#[no_std]'. And a few other small bits" Link: https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-project-goals/2024h2/index.html#flagship-goals [1] * tag 'rust-6.11' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux: (26 commits) docs: rust: quick-start: add section on Linux distributions rust: warn about `bindgen` versions 0.66.0 and 0.66.1 rust: start supporting several `bindgen` versions rust: work around `bindgen` 0.69.0 issue rust: avoid assuming a particular `bindgen` build rust: start supporting several compiler versions rust: simplify Clippy warning flags set rust: relax most deny-level lints to warnings rust: allow `dead_code` for never constructed bindings rust: init: simplify from `map_err` to `inspect_err` rust: macros: indent list item in `paste!`'s docs rust: add abstraction for `struct page` rust: uaccess: add typed accessors for userspace pointers uaccess: always export _copy_[from|to]_user with CONFIG_RUST rust: uaccess: add userspace pointers kbuild: rust-analyzer: improve comment documentation kbuild: rust-analyzer: better error handling docs: rust: no_std is used rust: alloc: add __GFP_HIGHMEM flag rust: alloc: fix typo in docs for GFP_NOWAIT ...

+/// The type used for userspace addresses.
+pub type UserPtr = usize;
+
+/// A pointer to an area in userspace memory, which can be either read-only or read-write.
+///
+/// All methods on this struct are safe: attempting to read or write on bad addresses (either out of
+/// the bound of the slice or unmapped addresses) will return [`EFAULT`]. Concurrent access,
+/// *including data races to/from userspace memory*, is permitted, because fundamentally another
+/// userspace thread/process could always be modifying memory at the same time (in the same way that
+/// userspace Rust's [`std::io`] permits data races with the contents of files on disk). In the
+/// presence of a race, the exact byte values read/written are unspecified but the operation is
+/// well-defined. Kernelspace code should validate its copy of data after completing a read, and not
+/// expect that multiple reads of the same address will return the same value.
+///
+/// These APIs are designed to make it difficult to accidentally write TOCTOU (time-of-check to
+/// time-of-use) bugs. Every time a memory location is read, the reader's position is advanced by
+/// the read length and the next read will start from there. This helps prevent accidentally reading
+/// the same location twice and causing a TOCTOU bug.
+///
+/// Creating a [`UserSliceReader`] and/or [`UserSliceWriter`] consumes the `UserSlice`, helping
+/// ensure that there aren't multiple readers or writers to the same location.
+///
+/// If double-fetching a memory location is necessary for some reason, then that is done by creating
+/// multiple readers to the same memory location, e.g. using [`clone_reader`].
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// Takes a region of userspace memory from the current process, and modify it by adding one to
+/// every byte in the region.
+///
+/// ```no_run
+/// use alloc::vec::Vec;
+/// use core::ffi::c_void;
+/// use kernel::error::Result;
+/// use kernel::uaccess::{UserPtr, UserSlice};
