rust: use custom FFI integer types

2024-11-10T22:58:00+00:00

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.

[ Added `rustdoc`, `rusttest` and KUnit tests support. Rebased on top of
  `rust-next` (e.g. migrated more `core::ffi` cases). Reworded crate
  docs slightly and formatted. - Miguel ]

rust: alloc: implement `Cmalloc` in module allocator_test

2024-10-15T21:10:32+00:00

So far the kernel's `Box` and `Vec` types can't be used by userspace
test cases, since all users of those types (e.g. `CString`) use kernel
allocators for instantiation.

In order to allow userspace test cases to make use of such types as
well, implement the `Cmalloc` allocator within the allocator_test module
and type alias all kernel allocators to `Cmalloc`. The `Cmalloc`
allocator uses libc's `realloc()` function as allocator backend.

rust: alloc: implement `KVmalloc` allocator

2024-10-15T20:56:59+00:00

Implement `Allocator` for `KVmalloc`, an `Allocator` that tries to
allocate memory with `kmalloc` first and, on failure, falls back to
`vmalloc`.

All memory allocations made with `KVmalloc` end up in
`kvrealloc_noprof()`; all frees in `kvfree()`.

rust: alloc: implement `Vmalloc` allocator

2024-10-15T20:56:59+00:00

Implement `Allocator` for `Vmalloc`, the kernel's virtually contiguous
allocator, typically used for larger objects, (much) larger than page
size.

All memory allocations made with `Vmalloc` end up in `vrealloc()`.

rust: alloc: add module `allocator_test`

2024-10-15T20:56:59+00:00

`Allocator`s, such as `Kmalloc`, will be used by e.g. `Box` and `Vec` in
subsequent patches, and hence this dependency propagates throughout the
whole kernel.

Add the `allocator_test` module that provides an empty implementation
for all `Allocator`s in the kernel, such that we don't break the
`rusttest` make target in subsequent patches.
