As by now, platform::Device is implemented as:
#[derive(Clone)]
pub struct Device(ARef<device::Device>);
This may be convenient, but has the implication that drivers can call
device methods that require a mutable reference concurrently at any
point of time.
Instead define platform::Device as
pub struct Device<Ctx: DeviceContext = Normal>(
Opaque<bindings::platform_dev>,
PhantomData<Ctx>,
);
and manually implement the AlwaysRefCounted trait.
With this we can implement methods that should only be called from
bus callbacks (such as probe()) for platform::Device<Core>. Consequently,
we make this type accessible in bus callbacks only.
Arbitrary references taken by the driver are still of type
ARef<platform::Device> and hence don't provide access to methods that are
reserved for bus callbacks.

In the `module!` macro, the `author` field is currently of type `String`.
Since modules can have multiple authors, this limitation prevents
specifying more than one.
Add an `authors` field as `Option<Vec<String>>` to allow creating
modules with multiple authors, and change the documentation and all
current users to use it. Eventually, the single `author` field may
be removed.
[ The `modinfo` key needs to still be `author`; otherwise, tooling
may not work properly, e.g.:
$ modinfo --author samples/rust/rust_print.ko

I have also kept the original `author` field (undocumented), so
that we can drop it more easily in a kernel cycle or two.

This introduces a module for working with faux devices in rust, along with
adding sample code to show how the API is used. Unlike other types of
devices, we don't provide any hooks for device probe/removal - since these
are optional for the faux API and are unnecessary in rust.

Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
It's coming late in the merge cycle as there are a number of merge
conflicts with your tree now, and I wanted to make sure they were
working properly. To resolve them, look in linux-next, and I will send
the "fixup" patch as a response to the pull request.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at least
one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is working on
tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone else's linux-next
use), it does not seem like a big issue at the moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing things
in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon".

The `kernel` crate relies on both `coerce_unsized` and `dispatch_from_dyn`
unstable features.
Alice Ryhl has proposed [1] the introduction of the unstable macro
`SmartPointer` to reduce such dependence, along with a RFC patch [2].
Since Rust 1.81.0 this macro, later renamed to `CoercePointee` in
Rust 1.84.0 [3], has been fully implemented with the naming discussion
resolved.
This feature is now on track to stabilization in the language.
In order to do so, we shall start using this macro in the `kernel` crate
to prove the functionality and utility of the macro as the justification
of its stabilization.
This patch makes this switch in such a way that the crate remains
backward compatible with older Rust compiler versions,
via the new Kconfig option `RUSTC_HAS_COERCE_POINTEE`.
A minimal demonstration example is added to the
`samples/rust/rust_print_main.rs` module.

In the last kernel cycle we migrated most of the `core::ffi` cases in
commit d072acda4862 ("rust: use custom FFI integer types"):
Currently FFI integer types are defined in libcore. This commit
creates the `ffi` crate and asks bindgen to use that crate for FFI
integer types instead of `core::ffi`.
This commit is preparatory and no type changes are made in this
commit yet.
Finish now the few remaining/new cases so that we perform the actual
remapping in the next commit as planned.

Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Enable a series of lints, including safety-related ones, e.g. the
compiler will now warn about missing safety comments, as well as
unnecessary ones. How safety documentation is organized is a frequent
source of review comments, thus having the compiler guide new
developers on where they are expected (and where not) is very nice.
- Start using '#[expect]': an interesting feature in Rust (stabilized
in 1.81.0) that makes the compiler warn if an expected warning was
_not_ emitted. This is useful to avoid forgetting cleaning up locally
ignored diagnostics ('#[allow]'s).
- Introduce '.clippy.toml' configuration file for Clippy, the Rust
linter, which will allow us to tweak its behaviour. For instance, our
first use cases are declaring a disallowed macro and, more
importantly, enabling the checking of private items.
- Lints-related fixes and cleanups related to the items above.
- Migrate from 'receiver_trait' to 'arbitrary_self_types': to get the
kernel into stable Rust, one of the major pieces of the puzzle is the
support to write custom types that can be used as 'self', i.e. as
receivers, since the kernel needs to write types such as 'Arc' that
common userspace Rust would not. 'arbitrary_self_types' has been
accepted to become stable, and this is one of the steps required to
get there.
- Remove usage of the 'new_uninit' unstable feature.
- Use custom C FFI types. Includes a new 'ffi' crate to contain our
custom mapping, instead of using the standard library 'core::ffi'
one. The actual remapping will be introduced in a later cycle.
- Map '__kernel_{size_t,ssize_t,ptrdiff_t}' to 'usize'/'isize' instead
of 32/64-bit integers.
- Fix 'size_t' in bindgen generated prototypes of C builtins.
- Warn on bindgen < 0.69.5 and libclang >= 19.1 due to a double issue
in the projects, which we managed to trigger with the upcoming
tracepoint support. It includes a build test since some distributions
backported the fix (e.g. Debian -- thanks!). All major distributions
we list should be now OK except Ubuntu non-LTS.
'macros' crate:
- Adapt the build system to be able run the doctests there too; and
clean up and enable the corresponding doctests.
'kernel' crate:
- Add 'alloc' module with generic kernel allocator support and remove
the dependency on the Rust standard library 'alloc' and the extension
traits we used to provide fallible methods with flags.
Add the 'Allocator' trait and its implementations '{K,V,KV}malloc'.
Add the 'Box' type (a heap allocation for a single value of type 'T'
that is also generic over an allocator and considers the kernel's GFP
flags) and its shorthand aliases '{K,V,KV}Box'. Add 'ArrayLayout'
type. Add 'Vec' (a contiguous growable array type) and its shorthand
aliases '{K,V,KV}Vec', including iterator support.
For instance, now we may write code such as:
let mut v = KVec::new();
v.push(1, GFP_KERNEL)?;
assert_eq!(&v, &[1]);
Treewide, move as well old users to these new types.
- 'sync' module: add global lock support, including the
'GlobalLockBackend' trait; the 'Global{Lock,Guard,LockedBy}' types
and the 'global_lock!' macro. Add the 'Lock::try_lock' method.
- 'error' module: optimize 'Error' type to use 'NonZeroI32' and make
conversion functions public.
- 'page' module: add 'page_align' function.
- Add 'transmute' module with the existing 'FromBytes' and 'AsBytes'
traits.
- 'block::mq::request' module: improve rendered documentation.
- 'types' module: extend 'Opaque' type documentation and add simple
examples for the 'Either' types.
drm/panic:
- Clean up a series of Clippy warnings.
Documentation:
- Add coding guidelines for lints and the '#[expect]' feature.

Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Enable a series of lints, including safety-related ones, e.g. the
compiler will now warn about missing safety comments, as well as
unnecessary ones. How safety documentation is organized is a
frequent source of review comments, thus having the compiler guide
new developers on where they are expected (and where not) is very
nice.
- Start using '#[expect]': an interesting feature in Rust (stabilized
in 1.81.0) that makes the compiler warn if an expected warning was
_not_ emitted. This is useful to avoid forgetting cleaning up
locally ignored diagnostics ('#[allow]'s).
- Introduce '.clippy.toml' configuration file for Clippy, the Rust
linter, which will allow us to tweak its behaviour. For instance,
our first use cases are declaring a disallowed macro and, more
importantly, enabling the checking of private items.
- Lints-related fixes and cleanups related to the items above.
- Migrate from 'receiver_trait' to 'arbitrary_self_types': to get the
kernel into stable Rust, one of the major pieces of the puzzle is
the support to write custom types that can be used as 'self', i.e.
as receivers, since the kernel needs to write types such as 'Arc'
that common userspace Rust would not. 'arbitrary_self_types' has
been accepted to become stable, and this is one of the steps
required to get there.
- Remove usage of the 'new_uninit' unstable feature.
- Use custom C FFI types. Includes a new 'ffi' crate to contain our
custom mapping, instead of using the standard library 'core::ffi'
one. The actual remapping will be introduced in a later cycle.
- Map '__kernel_{size_t,ssize_t,ptrdiff_t}' to 'usize'/'isize'
instead of 32/64-bit integers.
- Fix 'size_t' in bindgen generated prototypes of C builtins.
- Warn on bindgen < 0.69.5 and libclang >= 19.1 due to a double issue
in the projects, which we managed to trigger with the upcoming
tracepoint support. It includes a build test since some
distributions backported the fix (e.g. Debian -- thanks!). All
major distributions we list should be now OK except Ubuntu non-LTS.
'macros' crate:
- Adapt the build system to be able run the doctests there too; and
clean up and enable the corresponding doctests.
'kernel' crate:
- Add 'alloc' module with generic kernel allocator support and remove
the dependency on the Rust standard library 'alloc' and the
extension traits we used to provide fallible methods with flags.
Add the 'Allocator' trait and its implementations '{K,V,KV}malloc'.
Add the 'Box' type (a heap allocation for a single value of type
'T' that is also generic over an allocator and considers the
kernel's GFP flags) and its shorthand aliases '{K,V,KV}Box'. Add
'ArrayLayout' type. Add 'Vec' (a contiguous growable array type)
and its shorthand aliases '{K,V,KV}Vec', including iterator
support.
For instance, now we may write code such as:
let mut v = KVec::new();
v.push(1, GFP_KERNEL)?;
assert_eq!(&v, &[1]);
Treewide, move as well old users to these new types.
- 'sync' module: add global lock support, including the
'GlobalLockBackend' trait; the 'Global{Lock,Guard,LockedBy}' types
and the 'global_lock!' macro. Add the 'Lock::try_lock' method.
- 'error' module: optimize 'Error' type to use 'NonZeroI32' and make
conversion functions public.
- 'page' module: add 'page_align' function.
- Add 'transmute' module with the existing 'FromBytes' and 'AsBytes'
traits.
- 'block::mq::request' module: improve rendered documentation.
- 'types' module: extend 'Opaque' type documentation and add simple
examples for the 'Either' types.
drm/panic:
- Clean up a series of Clippy warnings.
Documentation:
- Add coding guidelines for lints and the '#[expect]' feature.
- Add Ubuntu to the list of distributions in the Quick Start guide.
MAINTAINERS:
- Add Danilo Krummrich as maintainer of the new 'alloc' module.

[ Converted `kasan_test_rust.rs` too, as discussed. - Miguel ]
Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
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].

Back when we used Rust 1.60.0 (before Rust was merged in the kernel),
we added `-Wclippy::dbg_macro` to the compilation flags. This worked
great with our custom `dbg!` macro (vendored from `std`, but slightly
modified to use the kernel printing facilities).
However, in the very next version, 1.61.0, it stopped working [1] since
the lint started to use a Rust diagnostic item rather than a path to find
the `dbg!` macro [1]. This behavior remains until the current nightly
(1.83.0).
Therefore, currently, the `dbg_macro` is not doing anything, which
explains why we can invoke `dbg!` in samples/rust/rust_print.rs`, as well
as why changing the `#[allow()]`s to `#[expect()]`s in `std_vendor.rs`
doctests does not work since they are not fulfilled.
One possible workaround is using `rustc_attrs` like the standard library
does. However, this is intended to be internal, and we just started
supporting several Rust compiler versions, so it is best to avoid it.
Therefore, instead, use `disallowed_macros`. It is a stable lint and
is more flexible (in that we can provide different macros), although
its diagnostic message(s) are not as nice as the specialized one (yet),
and does not allow to set different lint levels per macro/path [2].
In turn, this requires allowing the (intentional) `dbg!` use in the
sample, as one would have expected.
Finally, in a single case, the `allow` is fixed to be an inner attribute,
since otherwise it was not being applied.

Instead of taking binary string literals, take string ones instead,
making it easier for users to define a module, i.e. instead of
calling `module!` like:
module! {

...
}
now it is called as:
module! {
...
name: "rust_minimal",

}
Module names, aliases and license strings are restricted to
ASCII only. However, the author and the description allows UTF-8.
For simplicity (avoid parsing), escape sequences and raw string
