rust: upgrade to Rust 1.78.0

2024-05-05T18:17:25+00:00

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.77.1 to 1.78.0 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). It is much smaller than previous upgrades, since the `alloc` fork was dropped in commit 9d0441bab775 ("rust: alloc: remove our fork of the `alloc` crate") [3]. # Unstable features There have been no changes to the set of unstable features used in our own code. Therefore, the only unstable features allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`. However, since we finally dropped our `alloc` fork [3], all the unstable features used by `alloc` (~30 language ones, ~60 library ones) are not a concern anymore. This reduces the maintenance burden, increases the chances of new compiler versions working without changes and gets us closer to the goal of supporting several compiler versions. It also means that, ignoring non-language/library features, we are currently left with just the few language features needed to implement the kernel `Arc`, the `new_uninit` library feature, the `compiler_builtins` marker and the few `no_*` `cfg`s we pass when compiling `core`/`alloc`. Please see [4] for details. # Required changes ## LLVM's data layout Rust 1.77.0 (i.e. the previous upgrade) introduced a check for matching LLVM data layouts [5]. Then, Rust 1.78.0 upgraded LLVM's bundled major version from 17 to 18 [6], which changed the data layout in x86 [7]. Thus update the data layout in our custom target specification for x86 so that the compiler does not complain about the mismatch: error: data-layout for target `target-5559158138856098584`, `e-m:e-p270:32:32-p271:32:32-p272:64:64-i64:64-f80:128-n8:16:32:64-S128`, differs from LLVM target's `x86_64-linux-gnu` default layout, `e-m:e-p270:32:32-p271:32:32-p272:64:64-i64:64-i128:128-f80:128-n8:16:32:64-S128` In the future, the goal is to drop the custom target specifications. Meanwhile, if we want to support other LLVM versions used in `rustc` (e.g. for LTO), we will need to add some extra logic (e.g. conditional on LLVM's version, or extracting the data layout from an existing built-in target specification). ## `unused_imports` Rust's `unused_imports` lint covers both unused and redundant imports. Now, in 1.78.0, the lint detects more cases of redundant imports [8]. Thus one of the previous patches cleaned them up. ## Clippy's `new_without_default` Clippy now suggests to implement `Default` even when `new()` is `const`, since `Default::default()` may call `const` functions even if it is not `const` itself [9]. Thus one of the previous patches implemented it. # Other changes in Rust Rust 1.78.0 introduced `feature(asm_goto)` [10] [11]. This feature was discussed in the past [12]. Rust 1.78.0 introduced `feature(const_refs_to_static)` [13] to allow referencing statics in constants and extended `feature(const_mut_refs)` to allow raw mutable pointers in constants. Together, this should cover the kernel's `VTABLE` use case. In fact, the implementation [14] in upstream Rust added a test case for it [15]. Rust 1.78.0 with debug assertions enabled (i.e. `-Cdebug-assertions=y`, kernel's `CONFIG_RUST_DEBUG_ASSERTIONS=y`) now always checks all unsafe preconditions, though without a way to opt-out for particular cases [16]. It would be ideal to have a way to selectively disable certain checks per-call site for this one (i.e. not just per check but for particular instances of a check), even if the vast majority of the checks remain in place [17]. Rust 1.78.0 also improved a couple issues we reported when giving feedback for the new `--check-cfg` feature [18] [19]. # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing As mentioned above, compiler upgrades will not update `alloc` anymore, since we dropped our `alloc` fork [3].

rust: upgrade to Rust 1.77.1

2024-03-29T19:12:30+00:00

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.76.0 to 1.77.1 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features The `offset_of` feature (single-field `offset_of!`) that we were using got stabilized in Rust 1.77.0 [3]. Therefore, now the only unstable features allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate is `new_uninit`, though other code to be upstreamed may increase the list. Please see [4] for details. # Required changes Rust 1.77.0 merged the `unused_tuple_struct_fields` lint into `dead_code`, thus upgrading it from `allow` to `warn` [5]. In turn, this made `rustc` complain about the `ThisModule`'s pointer field being never read, but the previous patch adds the `as_ptr` method to it, needed by Binder [6], so that we do not need to locally `allow` it. # Other changes Rust 1.77.0 introduces the `--check-cfg` feature [7], for which there is a Call for Testing going on [8]. We were requested to test it and we found it useful [9] -- we will likely enable it in the future. # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded at once. There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer infallible APIs coming from upstream. Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only, especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream. Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot potentially unintended changes to our additions. To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after applying this patch: # Get the difference with respect to the old version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc # Apply this patch. git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch # Get the difference with respect to the new version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second approach).

rust: upgrade to Rust 1.76.0

2024-02-29T21:18:05+00:00

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.75.0 to 1.76.0 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features No unstable features that we use were stabilized in Rust 1.76.0.

Please see the previous commit for details. # Other changes Rust 1.76.0 does not emit the `.debug_pub{names,types}` sections anymore for DWARFv4 [4][5]. For instance, in the uncompressed debug info case, this debug information took: samples/rust/rust_minimal.o ~64 KiB (~18% of total object size) rust/kernel.o ~92 KiB (~15%) rust/core.o ~114 KiB ( ~5%) In the compressed debug info (zlib) case: samples/rust/rust_minimal.o ~11 KiB (~6%) rust/kernel.o ~17 KiB (~5%) rust/core.o ~21 KiB (~1.5%) In addition, the `rustc_codegen_gcc` backend now does not emit the `.eh_frame` section when compiling under `-Cpanic=abort` [6], thus removing the need for the patch in the CI to compile the kernel [7].

kbuild: raise the minimum supported version of LLVM to 13.0.1

2024-02-22T23:38:54+00:00

Patch series "Bump the minimum supported version of LLVM to 13.0.1". This series bumps the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel to 13.0.1. The first patch does the bump and all subsequent patches clean up all the various workarounds and checks for earlier versions. Quoting the first patch's commit message for those that were only on CC for the clean ups: When __builtin_mul_overflow() has arguments that differ in terms of signedness and width, LLVM may generate a libcall to __muloti4 because it performs the checks in terms of 65-bit multiplication. This issue becomes harder to hit (but still possible) after LLVM 12.0.0, which includes a special case for matching widths but different signs. To gain access to this special case, which the kernel can take advantage of when calls to __muloti4 appear, bump the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel to 13.0.1. 13.0.1 was chosen because there is minimal impact to distribution support while allowing a few more workarounds to be dropped in the kernel source than if 12.0.0 were chosen. Looking at container images of up to date distribution versions: archlinux:latest clang version 16.0.6 debian:oldoldstable-slim clang version 7.0.1-8+deb10u2 (tags/RELEASE_701/final) debian:oldstable-slim Debian clang version 11.0.1-2 debian:stable-slim Debian clang version 14.0.6 debian:testing-slim Debian clang version 16.0.6 (19) debian:unstable-slim Debian clang version 16.0.6 (19) fedora:38 clang version 16.0.6 (Fedora 16.0.6-3.fc38) fedora:latest clang version 17.0.6 (Fedora 17.0.6-1.fc39) fedora:rawhide clang version 17.0.6 (Fedora 17.0.6-1.fc40) opensuse/leap:latest clang version 15.0.7 opensuse/tumbleweed:latest clang version 17.0.6 ubuntu:focal clang version 10.0.0-4ubuntu1 ubuntu:latest Ubuntu clang version 14.0.0-1ubuntu1.1 ubuntu:rolling Ubuntu clang version 16.0.6 (15) ubuntu:devel Ubuntu clang version 17.0.6 (3) The only distribution that gets left behind is Debian Bullseye, as the default version is 11.0.1; other distributions either have a newer version than 13.0.1 or one older than the current minimum of 11.0.0. Debian has easy access to more recent LLVM versions through apt.llvm.org, so this is not as much of a concern. There are also the kernel.org LLVM toolchains, which should work with distributions with glibc 2.28 and newer. Another benefit of slimming up the number of supported versions of LLVM for building the kernel is reducing the build capacity needed to support a matrix that builds with each supported version, which allows a matrix to reallocate the freed up build capacity towards something else, such as more configuration combinations. This passes my build matrix with all supported versions. This is based on Andrew's mm-nonmm-unstable to avoid trivial conflicts with my series to update the LLVM links across the repository [1] but I can easily rebase it to linux-kbuild if Masahiro would rather these patches go through there (and defer the conflict resolution to the merge window).

rust: upgrade to Rust 1.75.0

2024-01-22T14:18:05+00:00

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.74.1 to 1.75.0 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features The `const_maybe_uninit_zeroed` unstable feature [3] was stabilized in Rust 1.75.0, which we were using in the PHYLIB abstractions.

scripts/min-tool-version.sh: Raise minimum clang version to 18.0.0 for loongarch

2024-01-17T04:43:00+00:00

The existing mainline clang development version encounters difficulties compiling the LoongArch kernel module. It is anticipated that this issue will be resolved in the upcoming 18.0.0 release. To prevent user confusion arising from broken builds, it is advisable to raise the minimum required clang version for LoongArch to 18.0.0.

rust: upgrade to Rust 1.74.1

2023-12-21T18:40:26+00:00

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.73.0 to 1.74.1 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized. Therefore, the only unstable features allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate are still `new_uninit,offset_of`, though other code to be upstreamed may increase the list (e.g. `offset_of` was added recently). Please see [3] for details. # Other improvements Rust 1.74.0 allows to use `#[repr(Rust)]` explicitly [4], which can be useful to be explicit about particular cases that would normally use e.g. the C representation, such as silencing lints like the upcoming additions we requested [5] to the `no_mangle_with_rust_abi` Clippy lint (which in turn triggered the `#[repr(Rust)]` addition). Rust 1.74.0 includes a fix for one of the false negative cases we reported in Clippy's `disallowed_macros` lint [6] that we would like to use in the future. Rust 1.74.1 fixes an ICE that the Apple AGX GPU driver was hitting [7]. # Required changes For this upgrade, no changes were required (i.e. on our side). # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded at once. There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer infallible APIs coming from upstream. Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only, especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream. Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot potentially unintended changes to our additions. To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after applying this patch: # Get the difference with respect to the old version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc # Apply this patch. git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch # Get the difference with respect to the new version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second approach).

rust: upgrade to Rust 1.73.0

2023-10-15T19:25:08+00:00

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.72.1 to 1.73.0 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized. Therefore, the only unstable feature allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`, though other code to be upstreamed may increase the list. Please see [3] for details. # Required changes For the upgrade, the following changes are required: - Allow `internal_features` for `feature(compiler_builtins)` since now Rust warns about using internal compiler and standard library features (similar to how it also warns about incomplete ones) [4]. - A cleanup for a documentation link thanks to a new `rustdoc` lint. See previous commits for details. - A need to make an intra-doc link to a macro explicit, due to a change in behavior in `rustdoc`. See previous commits for details. # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded at once. There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer infallible APIs coming from upstream.
