rust: alloc: implement `Vmalloc` allocator

2025-03-13T12:01:44+00:00

commit 61c004781d6b928443052e7a6cf84b35d4f61401 upstream. 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: rbtree: add red-black tree implementation backed by the C version

2024-08-31T15:35:08+00:00

The rust rbtree exposes a map-like interface over keys and values, backed by the kernel red-black tree implementation. Values can be inserted, deleted, and retrieved from a `RBTree` by key. This base abstraction is used by binder to store key/value pairs and perform lookups, for example the patch "[PATCH RFC 03/20] rust_binder: add threading support" in the binder RFC [1].

rust: kbuild: auto generate helper exports

2024-08-19T09:09:02+00:00

This removes the need to explicitly export all symbols. Generate helper exports similarly to what's currently done for Rust crates. These helpers are exclusively called from within Rust code and therefore can be treated similar as other Rust symbols.

rust: kbuild: split up helpers.c

2024-08-18T21:34:26+00:00

This patch splits up the rust helpers C file. When rebasing patch sets on upstream linux, merge conflicts in helpers.c is common and time consuming [1]. Thus, split the file so that each kernel component can live in a separate file. This patch lists helper files explicitly and thus conflicts in the file list is still likely. However, they should be more simple to resolve than the conflicts usually seen in helpers.c. [ Removed `README.md` and undeleted the original comment since now, in v3 of the series, we have a `helpers.c` again; which also allows us to keep the "Sorted alphabetically" line and makes the diff easier. In addition, updated the Documentation/ mentions of the file, reworded title and removed blank lines at the end of `page.c`. - Miguel ] Link: https://rust-for-linux.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/288089-General/topic/Splitting.20up.20helpers.2Ec/near/426694012 [1] Signed-off-by: Andreas Hindborg Reviewed-by: Gary Guo Acked-by: Dirk Behme Reviewed-by: Alice Ryhl Reviewed-by: Benno Lossin Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240815103016.2771842-1-nmi@metaspace.dk Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda
