[ Upstream commit 0f580d5d3d ]
Commit fde578c862 ("rust: alloc: replace aligned_size() with

in `Kamlloc`, but not in `Cmalloc`, and thus uses of it will trigger an

[ Upstream commit fde578c862 ]
aligned_size() dates back to when Rust did support kmalloc() only, but
is now used in ReallocFunc::call() and hence for all allocators.
However, the additional padding applied by aligned_size() is only
required by the kmalloc() allocator backend.
Hence, replace aligned_size() with Kmalloc::aligned_layout() and use it
for the affected allocators, i.e. kmalloc() and kvmalloc(), only.
While at it, make Kmalloc::aligned_layout() public, such that Rust
abstractions, which have to call subsystem specific kmalloc() based
allocation primitives directly, can make use of it.

commit 7498159226 upstream.
Starting with Rust 1.89.0 (expected 2025-08-07), the Rust compiler fails
to build the `rusttest` target due to undefined references such as:
kernel...-cgu.0:(.text....+0x116): undefined reference to
`rust_helper_kunit_get_current_test'
Moreover, tooling like `modpost` gets confused:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/gpu/drm/nova/nova.o
ERROR: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/gpu/nova-core/nova_core.o
The reason behind both issues is that the Rust compiler will now [1]
treat `#[used]` as `#[used(linker)]` instead of `#[used(compiler)]`
for our targets. This means that the retain section flag (`R`,
`SHF_GNU_RETAIN`) will be used and that they will be marked as `unique`
too, with different IDs. In turn, that means we end up with undefined
references that did not get discarded in `rusttest` and that multiple
`.modinfo` sections are generated, which confuse tooling like `modpost`
because they only expect one.
Thus start using `#[used(compiler)]` to keep the previous behavior
and to be explicit about what we want. Sadly, it is an unstable feature
(`used_with_arg`) [2] -- we will talk to upstream Rust about it. The good
news is that it has been available for a long time (Rust >= 1.60) [3].
The changes should also be fine for previous Rust versions, since they
behave the same way as before [4].
Alternatively, we could use `#[no_mangle]` or `#[export_name = ...]`
since those still behave like `#[used(compiler)]`, but of course it is
not really what we want to express, and it requires other changes to
avoid symbol conflicts.

commit 53bd978016 upstream.
The `FwFunc` struct contains an function with a char pointer argument,
for which a `*const u8` pointer was used. This is not really the
"proper" type for this, so use a `*const kernel::ffi::c_char` pointer
instead.
This has no real functionality changes, since now `kernel::ffi::c_char`
(which bindgen uses for `char`) is now a type alias to `u8` anyways,
but before commit 1bae8729e5 ("rust: map `long` to `isize` and `char`
to `u8`") the concrete type of `kernel::ffi::c_char` depended on the
architecture (However all supported architectures at the time mapped to
`i8`).
This caused problems on the v6.13 tag when building for 32 bit arm (with
my patches), since back then `*const i8` was used in the function
argument and the function that bindgen generated used
`*const core::ffi::c_char` which Rust mapped to `*const u8` on 32 bit
arm. The stable v6.13.y branch does not have this issue since commit
1bae8729e5 ("rust: map `long` to `isize` and `char` to `u8`") was
backported.
This caused the following build error:

commit 1bae8729e5 upstream.
The following FFI types are replaced compared to `core::ffi`:
1. `char` type is now always mapped to `u8`, since kernel uses
`-funsigned-char` on the C code. `core::ffi` maps it to platform
default ABI, which can be either signed or unsigned.
2. `long` is now always mapped to `isize`. It's very common in the
kernel to use `long` to represent a pointer-sized integer, and in
fact `intptr_t` is a typedef of `long` in the kernel. Enforce this
mapping rather than mapping to `i32/i64` depending on platform can
save us a lot of unnecessary casts.

commit 93e602310f upstream.
Currently, we can't implement `FromIterator`. There are a couple of
issues with this trait in the kernel, namely:
- Rust's specialization feature is unstable. This prevents us to
optimize for the special case where `I::IntoIter` equals `Vec`'s
`IntoIter` type.
- We also can't use `I::IntoIter`'s type ID either to work around this,
since `FromIterator` doesn't require this type to be `'static`.
- `FromIterator::from_iter` does return `Self` instead of
`Result<Self, AllocError>`, hence we can't properly handle allocation
failures.
- Neither `Iterator::collect` nor `FromIterator::from_iter` can handle
additional allocation flags.
Instead, provide `IntoIter::collect`, such that we can at least convert
`IntoIter` into a `Vec` again.

commit 9e7bbfa182 upstream.
When allocating memory for arrays using allocators, the `Layout::array`
function is typically used. It returns a result, since the given size
might be too big. However, `Vec` and its iterators store their allocated
capacity and thus they already did check that the size is not too big.
The `ArrayLayout` type provides this exact behavior, as it can be
infallibly converted into a `Layout`. Instead of a `usize` capacity,
`Vec` and other similar array-storing types can use `ArrayLayout`
instead.

commit 8a799831fc upstream.
`ReallocFunc` is an abstraction for the kernel's realloc derivates, such
as `krealloc`, `vrealloc` and `kvrealloc`.
All of the named functions share the same function signature and
implement the same semantics. The `ReallocFunc` abstractions provides a
generalized wrapper around those, to trivialize the implementation of
`Kmalloc`, `Vmalloc` and `KVmalloc` in subsequent patches.

[ Added temporary `allow(dead_code)` for `dangling_from_layout` to clean
warning in `rusttest` target as discussed in the list (but it is
needed earlier, i.e. in this patch already). Added colon. - Miguel ]

commit 1f9ed17254 upstream.
In Rust, it is possible to `allow` particular warnings (diagnostics,
lints) locally, making the compiler ignore instances of a given warning
within a given function, module, block, etc.
It is similar to `#pragma GCC diagnostic push` + `ignored` + `pop` in C:
#pragma GCC diagnostic push
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-function"
static void f(void) {}
#pragma GCC diagnostic pop
But way less verbose:
#[allow(dead_code)]
fn f() {}
By that virtue, it makes it possible to comfortably enable more
diagnostics by default (i.e. outside `W=` levels) that may have some
false positives but that are otherwise quite useful to keep enabled to
catch potential mistakes.
The `#[expect(...)]` attribute [1] takes this further, and makes the
compiler warn if the diagnostic was _not_ produced. For instance, the
following will ensure that, when `f()` is called somewhere, we will have
to remove the attribute:
#[expect(dead_code)]
fn f() {}
If we do not, we get a warning from the compiler:
warning: this lint expectation is unfulfilled
--> x.rs:3:10
|
3 | #[expect(dead_code)]
| ^^^^^^^^^
|
= note: `#[warn(unfulfilled_lint_expectations)]` on by default
This means that `expect`s do not get forgotten when they are not needed.
See the next commit for more details, nuances on its usage and
documentation on the feature.
The attribute requires the `lint_reasons` [2] unstable feature, but it
is becoming stable in 1.81.0 (to be released on 2024-09-05) and it has
already been useful to clean things up in this patch series, finding
cases where the `allow`s should not have been there.
Thus, enable `lint_reasons` and convert some of our `allow`s to `expect`s
where possible.
This feature was also an example of the ongoing collaboration between
Rust and the kernel -- we tested it in the kernel early on and found an
issue that was quickly resolved [3].
