- Core code:
- Make timekeeping and VDSO time readouts resilent against math overflow:
In guest context the kernel is prone to math overflow when the host
defers the timer interrupt due to overload, malfunction or malice.
This can be mitigated by checking the clocksource delta for the
maximum deferrement which is readily available. If that value is
exceeded then the code uses a slowpath function which can handle the
multiplication overflow.
This functionality is enabled unconditionally in the kernel, but made
conditional in the VDSO code. The latter is conditional because it
allows architectures to optimize the check so it is not causing
performance regressions.
On X86 this is achieved by reworking the existing check for negative
TSC deltas as a negative delta obviously exceeds the maximum
deferrement when it is evaluated as an unsigned value. That avoids two
conditionals in the hotpath and allows to hide both the negative delta
and the large delta handling in the same slow path.

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 56f64b3706 ("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.

...
Currently, a Vec<T>'s ptr value, after calling Vec<T>::new(), is
initialized to Unique::dangling(). Hence, in VecExt<T>::reserve(), we're
passing a dangling pointer (instead of NULL) to krealloc() whenever a new
Vec<T>'s backing storage is allocated through VecExt<T> extension
functions.
This only works as long as align_of::<T>(), used by Unique::dangling() to
derive the dangling pointer, resolves to a value between 0x0 and
ZERO_SIZE_PTR (0x10) and krealloc() hence treats it the same as a NULL
pointer however.
This isn't a case we should rely on, since there may be types whose
alignment may exceed the range still covered by krealloc(), plus other
kernel allocators are not as tolerant either.
Instead, pass a real NULL pointer to krealloc_aligned() if Vec<T>'s
capacity is zero.

Rust's `unused_imports` lint covers both unused and redundant imports.
In the upcoming 1.78.0, the lint detects more cases of redundant imports
[1], e.g.:
error: the item `bindings` is imported redundantly
--> rust/kernel/print.rs:38:9
|
38 | use crate::bindings;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the item `bindings` is already defined by prelude
Most cases are `use crate::bindings`, plus a few other items like `Box`.
Thus clean them up.
Note that, in the `bindings` case, the message "defined by prelude"
above means the extern prelude, i.e. the `--extern` flags we pass.

The initializers created by the `[try_][pin_]init!` macros utilize the
guard pattern to drop already initialized fields, when initialization
fails mid-way. These guards are generated to have the same name as the
field that they handle. To prevent namespacing issues [1] when the
field name is the same as e.g. a constant name, add `__` as a prefix
and `_guard` as the suffix.
[ Gary says:
"Here's the simplified example:
```
macro_rules! f {
() => {
let a = 1;
let _: u32 = a;
}
}
const a: u64 = 1;
fn main() {
f!();
}
```
The `a` in `f` have a different hygiene so normally it is scoped to the
macro expansion and wouldn't escape. Interestingly a constant is still
preferred despite the hygiene so constants escaped into the macro,
leading to the error."

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].

The `module!` macro creates glue code that are called by C to initialize
the Rust modules using the `Module::init` function. Part of this glue
code are the local functions `__init` and `__exit` that are used to
initialize/destroy the Rust module.
These functions are safe and also visible to the Rust mod in which the
`module!` macro is invoked. This means that they can be called by other
safe Rust code. But since they contain `unsafe` blocks that rely on only
being called at the right time, this is a soundness issue.
Wrap these generated functions inside of two private modules, this
guarantees that the public functions cannot be called from the outside.
Make the safe functions `unsafe` and add SAFETY comments.

Introduce a wrapper around `ktime_t` with a few different useful methods.
Rust Binder will use these bindings to compute how many milliseconds a
transaction has been active for when dumping the current state of the
Binder driver. This replicates the logic in C Binder [1].
For a usage example in Rust Binder, see [2].
ktime_get() cannot be safely called in NMI context. This requirement is not
checked by these abstractions, but it is intended that klint [3] or a
similar tool will be used to check it in the future.

The previous two patches made it possible to add `#[pin_data]` on
structs with default generic parameter values.
This patch makes `Work` use `#[pin_data]` and removes an invocation of
`pin_init_from_closure`. This function is intended as a low level manual
escape hatch, so it is better to rely on the safe `pin_init!` macro.

Add support for generic parameters defaults in `#[pin_data]` by using
the newly introduced `decl_generics` instead of the `impl_generics`.
Before this would not compile:
#[pin_data]
struct Foo<const N: usize = 0> {
// ...
}
because it would be expanded to this:
struct Foo<const N: usize = 0> {
// ...
}
const _: () = {
struct __ThePinData<const N: usize = 0> {
__phantom: ::core::marker::PhantomData<fn(Foo<N>) -> Foo<N>>,
}
impl<const N: usize = 0> ::core::clone::Clone for __ThePinData<N> {
fn clone(&self) -> Self {
*self
}
}
// [...] rest of expansion omitted
};
The problem is with the `impl<const N: usize = 0>`, since that is
invalid Rust syntax. It should not mention the default value at all,
since default values only make sense on type definitions.
The new `impl_generics` do not contain the default values, thus
generating correct Rust code.
This is used by the next commit that puts `#[pin_data]` on
`kernel::workqueue::Work`.

The generic parameters on a type definition can specify default values.
Currently `parse_generics()` cannot handle this though. For example when
parsing the following generics:
<T: Clone, const N: usize = 0>
The `impl_generics` will be set to `T: Clone, const N: usize = 0` and
`ty_generics` will be set to `T, N`. Now using the `impl_generics` on an
impl block:
impl<$($impl_generics)*> Foo {}
will result in invalid Rust code, because default values are only
available on type definitions.
Therefore add parsing support for generic parameter default values using
a new kind of generics called `decl_generics` and change the old
behavior of `impl_generics` to not contain the generic parameter default
values.
Now `Generics` has three fields:
- `impl_generics`: the generics with bounds
(e.g. `T: Clone, const N: usize`)
- `decl_generics`: the generics with bounds and default values
(e.g. `T: Clone, const N: usize = 0`)
- `ty_generics`: contains the generics without bounds and without
default values (e.g. `T, N`)
`impl_generics` is designed to be used on `impl<$impl_generics>`,
`decl_generics` for the type definition, so `struct Foo<$decl_generics>`
and `ty_generics` whenever you use the type, so `Foo<$ty_generics>`.
Here is an example that uses all three different types of generics:
let (Generics { decl_generics, impl_generics, ty_generics }, rest) = parse_generics(input);
quote! {
struct Foo<$($decl_generics)*> {
// ...
}
impl<$impl_generics> Foo<$ty_generics> {
fn foo() {
// ...
}
}
}
The next commit contains a fix to the `#[pin_data]` macro making it
compatible with generic parameter default values by relying on this new
behavior.

In Rust, producing an invalid value of any type is immediate undefined
behavior (UB); this includes via zeroing memory. Therefore, since an
uninhabited type has no valid values, producing any values at all for it is
UB.
The Rust standard library type `core::convert::Infallible` is uninhabited,
by virtue of having been declared as an enum with no cases, which always
produces uninhabited types in Rust.
The current kernel code allows this UB to be triggered, for example by code
like `Box::<core::convert::Infallible>::init(kernel::init::zeroed())`.
Thus, remove the implementation of `Zeroable` for `Infallible`, thereby
avoiding the unsoundness (potential for future UB).

Add functions to convert a CString to upper- / lowercase, either

Naming follows the one from the Rust stdlib, where functions starting

in-place conversion.
This is required by the Nova project (GSP only Rust successor of
Nouveau) to convert stringified enum values (representing different GPU

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 3ed03f4da0 ("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). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

This allows you to get a raw pointer to THIS_MODULE for use in unsafe
code. The Rust Binder RFC uses it when defining fops for the binderfs
component [1].
This doesn't really need to go in now - it could go in together with
Rust Binder like how it is sent in the Rust Binder RFC. However, the
upcoming 1.77.0 release of the Rust compiler introduces a new warning,
and applying this patch now will silence that warning. That allows us to
avoid adding the #[allow(dead_code)] annotation seen in [2].

"The major features are support for LPA2 (52-bit VA/PA with 4K and 16K
pages), the dpISA extension and Rust enabled on arm64. The changes are
mostly contained within the usual arch/arm64/, drivers/perf, the arm64
Documentation and kselftests. The exception is the Rust support which
touches some generic build files.
Summary:
- Reorganise the arm64 kernel VA space and add support for LPA2 (at
stage 1, KVM stage 2 was merged earlier) - 52-bit VA/PA address
range with 4KB and 16KB pages
- Enable Rust on arm64
- Support for the 2023 dpISA extensions (data processing ISA), host
only
- arm64 perf updates:
- StarFive's StarLink (integrates one or more CPU cores with a
shared L3 memory system) PMU support
- Enable HiSilicon Erratum 162700402 quirk for HIP09
- Several updates for the HiSilicon PCIe PMU driver
- Arm CoreSight PMU support
- Convert all drivers under drivers/perf/ to use .remove_new()
- Miscellaneous:
- Don't enable workarounds for "rare" errata by default
- Clean up the DAIF flags handling for EL0 returns (in preparation
for NMI support)
- Kselftest update for ptrace()
- Update some of the sysreg field definitions
- Slight improvement in the code generation for inline asm I/O
accessors to permit offset addressing
- kretprobes: acquire regs via a BRK exception (previously done
via a trampoline handler)
- SVE/SME cleanups, comment updates
- Allow CALL_OPS+CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE with clang (previously
disabled due to gcc silently ignoring -falign-functions=N)"

Core & protocols
----------------
- Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks:
- Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps etc.)
lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock.
- Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock,
allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core
instead of once for each driver / callback.
- Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface.
- Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock.
- Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary.
- Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length
and budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults.
- Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global config
variables fit in as few cache lines as possible.
- Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug
of ECMP imbalance problems.
- Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP.
- Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long
enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec.
- Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301.
- Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding
per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled
control state machine.
- Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple
disjoint MCTP networks.
- Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user
space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing
information while traversing veth links, bridge etc.
- Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets.
- Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray
instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for
use on fastpaths).
- Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list.
- Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations.
- Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
--------------------------------------------
- Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and introduce
VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by bpf_arena).
- Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of
ksft exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass).
Netfilter
---------
- Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a daemon
(via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this table when
the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as orphaned and
a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain ownership.
- Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set type.
Compact a few related data structures.
BPF
---
- Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem
functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd
through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted
& unprivileged application.
- Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between BPF
program and user space where structures inside the arena can have
pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work seamlessly
for both user-space programs and BPF programs.
- Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the verifier
and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop assuming it's
behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate it.
- Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock
critical sections.
- Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps
projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops type.
- Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links.
- Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC
layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF firewalls.
- Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which
improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF objects.
Wireless
--------
- Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support.
- Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation.
Driver API
----------
- Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to support
new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between drivers
(especially those using phylib), and encourage more uniform behavior.
Convert and clean up drivers.
- Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from drivers.
- IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions.
- Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level,
to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code.
- Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields.
Misc
----
- Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests.
- Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions,
and packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies.
- Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking.
- Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message encapsulation
or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of nested attributes
depends on link type, classifier type or some other "class type".

This cycle, a lot of workqueue changes including some that are significant
and invasive.
- During v6.6 cycle, unbound workqueues were updated so that they are more
topology aware and flexible, which among other things improved workqueue
behavior on modern multi-L3 CPUs. In the process, 636b927eba
("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues")
switched unbound workqueues to use per-CPU frontend pool_workqueues as a
part of increasing front-back mapping flexibility.
An unwelcome side effect of this change was that this made max concurrency
enforcement per-CPU blowing up the maximum number of allowed concurrent
executions. I incorrectly assumed that this wouldn't cause practical
problems as most unbound workqueue users are self-regulate max
concurrency; however, there definitely are which don't (e.g. on IO paths)
and the drastic increase in the allowed max concurrency led to noticeable
perf regressions in some use cases.
This is now addressed by separating out max concurrency enforcement to a
separate struct - wq_node_nr_active - which makes @max_active consistently
mean system-wide max concurrency regardless of the number of CPUs or
(finally) NUMA nodes. This is a rather invasive and, in places, a bit
clunky; however, the clunkiness rises from the the inherent requirement to
handle the disagreement between the execution locality domain and max
concurrency enforcement domain on some modern machines. See 5797b1c189
("workqueue: Implement system-wide nr_active enforcement for unbound
workqueues") for more details.
- BH workqueue support is added. They are similar to per-CPU workqueues but
execute work items in the softirq context. This is expected to replace
tasklet. However, currently, it's missing the ability to disable and
enable work items which is needed to convert many tasklet users. To avoid
crowding this merge window too much, this will be included in the next
merge window. A separate pull request will be sent for the couple
conversion patches that are currently pending.
- Waiman plugged a long-standing hole in workqueue CPU isolation where
ordered workqueues didn't follow wq_unbound_cpumask updates. Ordered
workqueues now follow the same rules as other unbound workqueues.
- More CPU isolation improvements: Juri fixed another deficit in workqueue
isolation where unbound rescuers don't respect wq_unbound_cpumask.
Leonardo fixed delayed_work timers firing on isolated CPUs.
- Other misc changes.

exported abs_srctree and abs_objtree to avoid recomputation after the
sub-make. However, this approach turned out to be fragile.
Commit 5fa94ceb79 ("kbuild: set correct abs_srctree and abs_objtree
for package builds") moved them above "ifneq ($(sub_make_done),1)",
eliminating the need for exporting them.
These are only needed in the top Makefile. If an absolute path is
required in sub-directories, you can use $(abspath ) or $(realpath )
as needed.

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 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").
# Unstable features
No unstable features that we use were stabilized in Rust 1.76.0.
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.
Please see [3] for details.
# Required changes
`rustc` (and others) now warns when it cannot connect to the Make
jobserver, thus mark those invocations as recursive as needed. 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].
Moreover, it also now emits the `.comment` section too [6].
# `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). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

`rustc` (like Cargo) may take advantage of the jobserver at any time
(e.g. for backend parallelism, or eventually frontend too). In the kernel,
we call `rustc` with `-Ccodegen-units=1` (and `-Zthreads` is 1 so far),
so we do not expect parallelism. However, in the upcoming Rust 1.76.0, a
warning is emitted by `rustc` [1] when it cannot connect to the jobserver
it was passed (in many cases, but not all: compiling and `--print sysroot`
do, but `--version` does not). And given GNU Make always passes
the jobserver in the environment variable (even when a line is deemed
non-recursive), `rustc` will end up complaining about it (in particular
in Make 4.3 where there is only the simple pipe jobserver style).
One solution is to remove the jobserver from `MAKEFLAGS`. However, we
can mark the lines with calls to `rustc` (and Cargo) as recursive, which
looks simpler. This is being documented as a recommendation in `rustc`
[2] and allows us to be ready for the time we may use parallelism inside
`rustc` (potentially now, if a user passes `-Zthreads`). Thus do so.
Similarly, do the same for `rustdoc` and `cargo` calls.
Finally, there is one case that the solution does not cover, which is the
`$(shell ...)` call we have. Thus, for that one, set an empty `MAKEFLAGS`
environment variable.

Currently, `BStr` is just a type alias of `[u8]`, limiting its
representation to a byte list rather than a character list, which is not
ideal for printing and debugging.
Implement `Display` and `Debug` traits for `BStr` to facilitate easier
printing and debugging.
Also, for this purpose, change `BStr` from a type alias of `[u8]` to a
struct wrapper of `[u8]`.

Currently Rust kernel modules have their init code placed in the `.text`
section of the .ko file. I don't think this causes any real problems
for Rust modules as long as all code called during initialization lives
in `.text`.
However, if a Rust `init_module()` function (that lives in `.text`)
calls a function marked with `__init` (in C) or
`#[link_section = ".init.text"]` (in Rust), then a warning is
generated by modpost because that function lives in `.init.text`.
For example:
WARNING: modpost: fs/bcachefs/bcachefs: section mismatch in reference: init_module+0x6 (section: .text) -> _RNvXCsj7d3tFpT5JS_15bcachefs_moduleNtB2_8BcachefsNtCsjDtqRIL3JAG_6kernel6Module4init (section: .init.text)
I ran into this while experimenting with converting the bcachefs kernel
module from C to Rust. The module's `init()`, written in Rust, calls C
functions like `bch2_vfs_init()` which are placed in `.init.text`.
This patch places the macro-generated `init_module()` Rust function in
the `.init.text` section. It also marks `init_module()` as unsafe--now
it may not be called after module initialization completes because it
may be freed already.
Note that this is not enough on its own to actually get all the module
initialization code in that section. The module author must still add
the `#[link_section = ".init.text"]` attribute to the Rust `init()` in
the `impl kernel::Module` block in order to then call `__init`
functions. However, this patch enables module authors do so, when
previously it would not be possible (without warnings).

Currently `ForeignOwnable::from_foreign()` only works for non-null
pointers for the existing `impl`s (e.g. `Box`, `Arc`). In turn, this
means callers may write code like:
```rust
// `p` is a pointer that may be null.
if p.is_null() {
None
} else {
unsafe { Some(Self::from_foreign(ptr)) }
}
```
Add a `try_from_foreign()` method to the trait with a default
implementation that returns `None` if `ptr` is null, otherwise
`Some(from_foreign(ptr))`, so that it can be used by callers instead.

The `byte_sub` method was stabilized in Rust 1.75.0. By using that
method, we no longer need the unstable `ptr_metadata` feature for
implementing `Arc::from_raw`.
This brings us one step closer towards not using unstable compiler
features.

Currently, all macros are reexported with #[macro_export] only, which
means that to access `new_work!` from the workqueue, you need to import
it from the path `kernel::new_work` instead of importing it from the
workqueue module like all other items in the workqueue. By adding
reexports of the macros, it becomes possible to import the macros from
the correct modules.
It's still possible to import the macros from the root, but I don't
think we can do anything about that.
There is no functional change. This is merely a code cleanliness
improvement.
