Subject: [PATCH v5 00/20] Rust support
Rust support
This is the patch series (v5) to add support for Rust as a second
language to the Linux kernel.
If you are interested in following this effort, please join us in
the mailing list at:
rust-for-linux@...r.kernel.org
and take a look at the project itself at:
https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux
As usual, special thanks go to ISRG (Internet Security Research
Group) and Google for their financial support on this endeavor.
Cheers,
Miguel

# Rust support
This cover letter explains the major changes and updates done since
the previous ones. For those, please see:
RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210414184604.23473-1-ojeda@kernel.org/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210704202756.29107-1-ojeda@kernel.org/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211206140313.5653-1-ojeda@kernel.org/
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220117053349.6804-1-ojeda@kernel.org/
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220212130410.6901-1-ojeda@kernel.org/
## Infrastructure updates
There have been several improvements to the overall Rust support:
- The toolchain and `alloc` have been upgraded to Rust 1.59.0.
This version stabilized `feature(global_asm)` as well as
the `-Csymbol-mangling-version=v0` flag.
- Added support for host programs written in Rust. This should
only be used in scenarios where Rust is required to be available.
- Target specification files are now generated on the fly based
on the kernel configuration, via a Rust script, instead of
having a few predefined files.
The content of the generated file has been simplified and,
for x86, all the options that can be specified through the
command-line have been moved to the architecture `Makefile`.
The goal is to reduce the content of the file as much as possible
for all architectures, and eventually, stop needing such a file.
- Added `HAVE_RUST` kernel option. This symbol should be selected
by an architecture if it supports Rust.
- Added documentation on `RUSTFLAGS*` and `KBUILD_RUST*` variables.
- Simplified tags and cross-references in the documentation.
- Other cleanups, fixes and improvements on the build system.
## Abstractions and driver updates
Some of the improvements to the abstractions and example drivers are:
- Added abstraction for the Hardware Random Number Generator.
- `%pA` rework in `vsprintf` following the review.
- The `sync` sample now shows how to use static mutexes and
conditional variables.
- Error codes can now be used without prefixing them with
`Error::`, which makes using them closer to C. For instance:
fn f(...) -> Result {
if ... {
return Err(EINVAL);
}
...
Ok(())
}
- Added `CString` type for owned C strings.
- `miscdev` registration now holds an owned C string, which enables
scenarios when the device name is constructed at runtime.
- Added `Bool` trait meant to be used in type states to allow
boolean constraints in implementation blocks.
- Added `LockInfo` trait that lock "type states" must implement.
This allows the definition of additional writable type states.
- Simplification of the spin lock implementation by splitting
acquisition types. Type states are used to implement two versions
of the `Lock` trait: one which never modifies the interrupt state
and one that disables them (if they are enabled, then re-enables
on unlock).
- `Result::unwrap` can now be used in examples that are compiled,
linked and run.
- Merged `Formatter` and `Buffer` types.
- Added `IoMem::offset_ok` for runtime sizes.
- Other cleanups, fixes and improvements.
## Patch series status
The Rust support is still to be considered experimental. However,
support is good enough that kernel developers can start working on the
Rust abstractions for subsystems and write drivers and other modules.
The current series has just arrived in `linux-next`, as usual.
Similarly, the preview docs for this series can be seen at:
https://rust-for-linux.github.io/docs/kernel/
As usual, please see the following link for the
live list of unstable Rust features we are using:
https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/2
Note that this time the series depends on a patch queued in
powerpc-next:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux.git/commit/?h=next&id=d4be60fe66b7380530868ceebe549f8eebccacc5
## Acknowledgements
The signatures in the main commits correspond to the people that
wrote code that has ended up in them at the present time. For details
on contributions to code and discussions, please see our repository:
https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux
However, we would like to give credit to everyone that has contributed
in one way or another to the Rust for Linux project. Since the
previous cover letter:
- Akira Yokosawa for a detailed review of the documentation and
suggesting several improvements.
- Petr Mladek and Rasmus Villemoes for their printing/formatting
review and suggestions.
- Russell King for his review of the Kconfig changes.
- Andy Shevchenko, Sergey Senozhatsky, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz
and David Laight for their reviews and feedback on the previous
round.
- bjorn3 for reviewing many PRs.
- As usual, bjorn3 and Gary Guo for all the input on Rust compiler
details and suggestions.
- Philip Li, Yujie Liu et al. for continuing their work on adding
Rust support to the Intel 0DAY/LKP kernel test robot. Also,
thanks to Nathan Chancellor and Nick Desaulniers for their input.
- Wei Liu for taking the time to answer questions from newcomers
in Zulip.
- Antoni Boucher (and his supporters) et al. for their ongoing
work on `rustc_codegen_gcc`.
- Philip Herrons (and his supporters Open Source Security and
Embecosm) et al. for their ongoing work on GCC Rust.
- Mats Larsen, Marc Poulhiès et al. for their ongoing work on
improving Rust support in Compiler Explorer.
- Many folks that have reported issues, tested the project,
helped spread the word, joined discussions and contributed in
other ways!
