2024-10-25RISC-V: disallow gcc + rust buildsConor Dooley
During the discussion before supporting rust on riscv, it was decided not to support gcc yet, due to differences in extension handling compared to llvm (only the version of libclang matching the c compiler is supported). Recently Jason Montleon reported [1] that building with gcc caused build issues, due to unsupported arguments being passed to libclang. After some discussion between myself and Miguel, it is better to disable gcc + rust builds to match the original intent, and subsequently support it when an appropriate set of extensions can be deduced from the version of libclang.

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "Toolchain and infrastructure: - Support 'MITIGATION_{RETHUNK,RETPOLINE,SLS}' (which cleans up objtool warnings), teach objtool about 'noreturn' Rust symbols and mimic '___ADDRESSABLE()' for 'module_{init,exit}'. With that, we should be objtool-warning-free, so enable it to run for all Rust object files. - KASAN (no 'SW_TAGS'), KCFI and shadow call sanitizer support. - Support 'RUSTC_VERSION', including re-config and re-build on change. - Split helpers file into several files in a folder, to avoid conflicts in it. Eventually those files will be moved to the right places with the new build system. In addition, remove the need to manually export the symbols defined there, reusing existing machinery for that. - Relax restriction on configurations with Rust + GCC plugins to just the RANDSTRUCT plugin. 'kernel' crate: - New 'list' module: doubly-linked linked list for use with reference counted values, which is heavily used by the upcoming Rust Binder. This includes 'ListArc' (a wrapper around 'Arc' that is guaranteed unique for the given ID), 'AtomicTracker' (tracks whether a 'ListArc' exists using an atomic), 'ListLinks' (the prev/next pointers for an item in a linked list), 'List' (the linked list itself), 'Iter' (an iterator over a 'List'), 'Cursor' (a cursor into a 'List' that allows to remove elements), 'ListArcField' (a field exclusively owned by a 'ListArc'), as well as support for heterogeneous lists. - New 'rbtree' module: red-black tree abstractions used by the upcoming Rust Binder. This includes 'RBTree' (the red-black tree itself), 'RBTreeNode' (a node), 'RBTreeNodeReservation' (a memory reservation for a node), 'Iter' and 'IterMut' (immutable and mutable iterators), 'Cursor' (bidirectional cursor that allows to remove elements), as well as an entry API similar to the Rust standard library one. - 'init' module: add 'write_[pin_]init' methods and the 'InPlaceWrite' trait. Add the 'assert_pinned!' macro. - 'sync' module: implement the 'InPlaceInit' trait for 'Arc' by introducing an associated type in the trait. - 'alloc' module: add 'drop_contents' method to 'BoxExt'. - 'types' module: implement the 'ForeignOwnable' trait for 'Pin<Box<T>>' and improve the trait's documentation. In addition, add the 'into_raw' method to the 'ARef' type. - 'error' module: in preparation for the upcoming Rust support for 32-bit architectures, like arm, locally allow Clippy lint for those. Documentation: - https://rust.docs.kernel.org has been announced, so link to it. - Enable rustdoc's "jump to definition" feature, making its output a bit closer to the experience in a cross-referencer. - Debian Testing now also provides recent Rust releases (outside of the freeze period), so add it to the list.

2024-08-25docs: rust: improve main page introducing a "Code documentation" sectionMiguel Ojeda
Clean the "Rust" main page by introducing a 'Code documentation" section to separate it from the rest of the text above. In addition, introduce the "Rust code documentation" term, which may be clearer than referring to a potentially unknown tool. Furthermore, for the HTML case, homogenize both `rustdoc` and non-`rustdoc` cases and use the term introduced above instead. Then, always generate the pregenerated version part, since now there is a section that is always generated and thus makes sense to do so. Finally, finish the new section with a link to more details about the Rust code documentation. The intention is that: - The non-HTML case mentions the code documentation too, making it more prominent for readers of non-HTML docs. - Both HTML cases read more naturally. - The pregenerated version is always mentioned, since it is likely useful for readers of non-HTML docs.

This patch splits up the rust helpers C file. When rebasing patch sets on upstream linux, merge conflicts in helpers.c is common and time consuming [1]. Thus, split the file so that each kernel component can live in a separate file. This patch lists helper files explicitly and thus conflicts in the file list is still likely. However, they should be more simple to resolve than the conflicts usually seen in helpers.c. [ Removed `README.md` and undeleted the original comment since now, in v3 of the series, we have a `helpers.c` again; which also allows us to keep the "Sorted alphabetically" line and makes the diff easier.

2024-07-10docs: rust: quick-start: add section on Linux distributionsrust-6.11Miguel Ojeda
Now that we are starting to support several Rust compiler and `bindgen` versions, there is a good chance some Linux distributions work out of the box. Thus, provide some instructions on how to set the toolchain up for a few major Linux distributions. This simplifies the setup users need to build the kernel. In addition, add an introduction to the document so that it is easier to understand its structure and move the LLVM+Rust kernel.org toolchains paragraph there (removing "depending on the Linux version"). We may want to reorganize the document or split it in the future, but I wanted to focus this commit on the new information added about each particular distribution. Finally, remove the `rustup`'s components mention in `changes.rst` since users do not need it if they install the toolchain via the distributions (and anyway it was too detailed for that main document).

2024-07-10rust: start supporting several `bindgen` versionsMiguel Ojeda
With both the workaround for `bindgen` 0.69.0 and the warning about 0.66.0 and 0.66.1 in place, start supporting several `bindgen` versions, like it was done for the Rust compiler in a previous patch. All other versions, including the latest 0.69.4, build without errors. The `bindgen` project, like Rust, has also agreed to have the kernel in their CI [1] -- thanks! This should help both projects: `bindgen` will be able to detect early issues like those mentioned above, and the kernel will be very likely build with new releases (at least for the basic configuration being tested).

2024-07-10rust: avoid assuming a particular `bindgen` buildMiguel Ojeda
`bindgen`'s logic to find `libclang` (via `clang-sys`) may change over time, and depends on how it was built (e.g. Linux distributions may decide to build it differently, and we are going to provide documentation on installing it via distributions later in this series). Therefore, clarify that `bindgen` may be built in several ways and simplify the documentation by only mentioning the most prominent environment variable (`LIBCLANG_PATH`) as an example on how to tweak the search of the library at runtime (i.e. when `bindgen` is built as our documentation explains). This also avoids duplicating the documentation, like `bindgen` itself does (i.e. it refers to `clang-sys`). Similarly, replace the test we had for this (which used the real program) with a mocked one, to avoid depending on the particular build as well.

2024-07-10rust: start supporting several compiler versionsMiguel Ojeda
It is time to start supporting several Rust compiler versions and thus establish a minimum Rust version. We may still want to upgrade the minimum sometimes in the beginning since there may be important features coming into the language that improve how we write code (e.g. field projections), which may or may not make sense to support conditionally. We will start with a window of two stable releases, and widen it over time. Thus this patch does not move the current minimum (1.78.0), but instead adds support for the recently released 1.79.0. 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 Tumbleweed. See the documentation patch about it later in this series. In addition, Rust for Linux is now being built-tested in Rust's pre-merge CI [1]. 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 -- thanks to the Rust project for that! 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. For instance, currently, the beta (1.80.0) and nightly (1.81.0) branches work as well. Of course, the Rust for Linux CI job in the Rust toolchain may still need to be temporarily disabled for different reasons, but the intention is to help bring Rust for Linux into stable Rust.

2024-07-03arch: um: rust: Add i386 support for RustDavid Gow
At present, Rust in the kernel only supports 64-bit x86, so UML has followed suit. However, it's significantly easier to support 32-bit i386 on UML than on bare metal, as UML does not use the -mregparm option (which alters the ABI), which is not yet supported by rustc[1]. Add support for CONFIG_RUST on um/i386, by adding a new target config to generate_rust_target, and replacing various checks on CONFIG_X86_64 to also support CONFIG_X86_32. We still use generate_rust_target, rather than a built-in rustc target, in order to match x86_64, provide a future place for -mregparm, and more easily disable floating point instructions. With these changes, the KUnit tests pass with: kunit.py run --make_options LLVM=1 --kconfig_add CONFIG_RUST=y --kconfig_add CONFIG_64BIT=n --kconfig_add CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=n An earlier version of these changes was proposed on the Rust-for-Linux github[2].

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "The most notable change is the drop of the 'alloc' in-tree fork. This is nicely reflected in the diffstat as a ~10k lines drop. In turn, this makes the version upgrades way simpler and smaller in the future, e.g. the latest one in commit 56f64b370612 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.78.0"). More importantly, this increases the chances that a newer compiler version just works, which in turn means supporting several compiler versions is easier now.

The Makefile and Kconfig changes are lifted from work done by Miguel in the Rust-for-Linux tree, hence his authorship. Following the rabbit hole, the Makefile changes originated in a script, created based on config files originally added by Gary, hence his co-authorship. 32-bit is broken in core rust code, so support is limited to 64-bit: ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __udivdi3 As 64-bit RISC-V is now supported, add it to the arch support table.

2023-12-21docs: rust: remove `CC=clang` mentionsMiguel Ojeda
Nowadays all architectures except s390 recommend using `LLVM=1` instead of `CC=clang`, and since commit a3c6bfba4429 ("Documentation/llvm: refresh docs") the Kbuild LLVM documentation makes `LLVM=1` the way to go: We want to encourage the use of ``LLVM=1`` rather than just ``CC=clang``. Make that suggestion "above the fold" and "front and center" in our docs. In particular, that commit removes the examples with `CC=clang`. Thus do the same in the Rust Quick Start guide, i.e. remove the `CC=clang` mentions, especially since the architectures that have had their Rust support upstreamed (or soon to be upstreamed) are all `LLVM=1` ones. And perhaps by the time Rust is supported for s390 (or new architectures), it may have moved to `LLVM=1` anyway. Otherwise, this can be added back if needed (or perhaps an extra link to Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst). This should also help avoiding potential confusion around `CC=clang` [1].

The source for Rust's 'core' library is needed to build the kernel with Rust support. This sometimes needs to be obtained by hand when using a standalone version of 'rustc' not managed by 'rustup'. Currently, the documentation suggests cloning the 'rust' repository to obtain these sources, but this is quite slow (on the order of a multiple minutes). Change this documentation to suggest using the source tarball instead. The tarball includes only needed files (<5M) and is significantly faster to download; this is more in line with what 'rustup' does. Also simplify wording of the relevant section.

2023-08-15rust: bindgen: upgrade to 0.65.1Aakash Sen Sharma
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 `clang_Cursor_isAnonymous` [2]: $ make rustdoc LLVM=1 CLIPPY=1 -j$(nproc) RUSTC L rust/core.o BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_generated.rs BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_helpers_generated.rs BINDGEN rust/uapi/uapi_generated.rs thread 'main' panicked at '"ftrace_branch_data_union_(anonymous_at__/_/include/linux/compiler_types_h_146_2)" is not a valid Ident', .../proc-macro2-1.0.24/src/fallback.rs:693:9 ... thread 'main' panicked at '"ftrace_branch_data_union_(anonymous_at__/_/include/linux/compiler_types_h_146_2)" is not a valid Ident', .../proc-macro2-1.0.24/src/fallback.rs:693:9 ... 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 `()`.

2023-08-09docs: rust: add paragraph about finding a suitable `libclang`Miguel Ojeda
Sometimes users need to tweak the finding process of `libclang` for `bindgen` via the `clang-sys`-provided environment variables. Thus add a paragraph to the setting up guide, including a reference to `clang-sys`'s relevant documentation.

2023-05-31docs: rust: point directly to the standalone installersMiguel Ojeda
The Quick Start guide points to the Rust programming language front page when it mentions the possibility of using the standalone installers instead of `rustup`. This was done to have a hopefully stable link, but it is not too helpful: readers need to figure out how to reach the standalone installers from there. Thus point directly to the page (and anchor) with the table that contains the standalone installers (plus signing key etc.). If the link breaks in the future, we can always update it as needed. And anyway having the full link includes the domain and gives more information about where the old docs were in such a broken link case, which may help.

2023-02-10rust: arch/um: Add support for CONFIG_RUST under x86_64 UMLDavid Gow
CONFIG_RUST currently supports x86_64, but does not support it under UML. With the previous patches applied, adding support is trivial: add CONFIG_HAVE_RUST to UML if X86_64 is set. The scripts/generate_rust_target.rs file already checks for CONFIG_X86_64, not CONFIG_X86, so is prepared for UML support. The Rust support does not currently support X86_32. Also, update the Rust architecture support documentation to not that this is being maintained: I intend to look after this as best I can.
