 "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"

<content type='text'>
Since we are starting to support several Rust toolchains, lints (including
Clippy ones) now may behave differently and lint groups may include
new lints.

Therefore, to maximize the chances a given version works, relax some
deny-level lints to warnings. It may also make our lives a bit easier
while developing new code or refactoring.

To be clear, the requirements for in-tree code are still the same, since
Rust code still needs to be warning-free (patches should be clean under
`WERROR=y`) and the set of lints is not changed.

`unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` is left unmodified, i.e. as an error, since it is
becoming the default in the language (warn-by-default in Rust 2024 [1] and
ideally an error later on) and thus it should also be very well tested. In
addition, it is simple enough that it should not have false positives
(unlike e.g. `rust_2018_idioms`'s `explicit_outlives_requirements`).

`non_ascii_idents` is left unmodified as well, i.e. as an error, since
it is unlikely one gains any productivity during development if it
were a warning (in fact, it may be worse, since it is likely one made
a typo). In addition, it should not have false positives.

Finally, put the two `-D` ones at the top and take the chance to do one
per line.

<title>kbuild: rust: remove now-unneeded `rusttest` custom sysroot handling</title>

<content type='text'>
Since we dropped our custom `alloc` in commit 9d0441bab775 ("rust: alloc:
remove our fork of the `alloc` crate"), there is no need anymore to keep
the custom sysroot hack.

Thus delete it, which makes the target way simpler and faster too.

This also means we are not using Cargo for anything at the moment,
and that no download is required anymore, so update the main `Makefile`
and the documentation accordingly.

<title>arch: um: rust: Add i386 support for Rust</title>

<id>ab0f4cedc3554f921691ce5b63d59e258154e799</id>
<content type='text'>
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. Thus we will look into finally setting a
  minimum version in the near future.

  Toolchain and infrastructure:

   - Upgrade to Rust 1.78.0

     This time around, due to how the kernel and Rust schedules have
     aligned, there are two upgrades in fact. These allow us to remove
     one more unstable feature ('offset_of') from the list, among other
     improvements

   - Drop 'alloc' in-tree fork of the standard library crate, which
     means all the unstable features used by 'alloc' (~30 language ones,
     ~60 library ones) are not a concern anymore

   - Support DWARFv5 via the '-Zdwarf-version' flag

   - Support zlib and zstd debuginfo compression via the
     '-Zdebuginfo-compression' flag

  'kernel' crate:

   - Support allocation flags ('GFP_*'), particularly in 'Box' (via
     'BoxExt'), 'Vec' (via 'VecExt'), 'Arc' and 'UniqueArc', as well as
     in the 'init' module APIs

   - Remove usage of the 'allocator_api' unstable feature

   - Remove 'try_' prefix in allocation APIs' names

   - Add 'VecExt' (an extension trait) to be able to drop the 'alloc'
     fork

   - Add the '{make,to}_{upper,lower}case()' methods to 'CStr'/'CString'

   - Add the 'as_ptr' method to 'ThisModule'

   - Add the 'from_raw' method to 'ArcBorrow'

   - Add the 'into_unique_or_drop' method to 'Arc'

   - Display column number in the 'dbg!' macro output by applying the
     equivalent change done to the standard library one

   - Migrate 'Work' to '#[pin_data]' thanks to the changes in the
     'macros' crate, which allows to remove an unsafe call in its 'new'
     associated function

   - Prevent namespacing issues when using the '[try_][pin_]init!'
     macros by changing the generated name of guard variables

   - Make the 'get' method in 'Opaque' const

   - Implement the 'Default' trait for 'LockClassKey'

   - Remove unneeded 'kernel::prelude' imports from doctests

   - Remove redundant imports

  'macros' crate:

   - Add 'decl_generics' to 'parse_generics()' to support default
     values, and use that to allow them in '#[pin_data]'

  Helpers:

   - Trivial English grammar fix

  Documentation:

   - Add section on Rust Kselftests to the 'Testing' document

   - Expand the 'Abstractions vs. bindings' section of the 'General
     Information' document"

<title>kbuild: use $(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory</title>

<id>b1992c3772e69a6fd0e3fc81cd4d2820c8b6eca0</id>
<content type='text'>
Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:

    src := $(obj)

When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.

This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.

To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.

Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:

  $(obj)     - directory in the object tree
  $(src)     - directory in the source tree  (changed by this commit)
  $(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
  $(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree

Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

<title>kbuild: rust: remove unneeded `@rustc_cfg` to avoid ICE</title>

When KUnit tests are enabled, under very big kernel configurations
(e.g. `allyesconfig`), we can trigger a `rustdoc` ICE [1]:

      RUSTDOC TK rust/kernel/lib.rs
    error: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.

The reason is that this build step has a duplicated `@rustc_cfg` argument,
which contains the kernel configuration, and thus a lot of arguments. The
factor 2 happens to be enough to reach the ICE.

Thus remove the unneeded `@rustc_cfg`. By doing so, we clean up the
command and workaround the ICE.

The ICE has been fixed in the upcoming Rust 1.79 [2].
