2025-05-27Documentation: rust: testing: add docs on the new KUnit `#[test]` testsMiguel Ojeda
There was no documentation yet on the KUnit-based `#[test]`s. Thus add it now. It includes an explanation about the `assert*!` macros being mapped to KUnit and the support for `-> Result` introduced in these series.

2025-05-27Documentation: rust: rename `#[test]`s to "`rusttest` host tests"Miguel Ojeda
Now that `rusttest`s are not really used much, clarify the section of the documentation that describes them. In addition, free the section name for the KUnit-based `#[test]`s that will be added afterwards. To do so, rename the section into `rusttest` host tests.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ojeda/linux Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda: "Toolchain and infrastructure: - Extract the 'pin-init' API from the 'kernel' crate and make it into a standalone crate. In order to do this, the contents are rearranged so that they can easily be kept in sync with the version maintained out-of-tree that other projects have started to use too (or plan to, like QEMU). This will reduce the maintenance burden for Benno, who will now have his own sub-tree, and will simplify future expected changes like the move to use 'syn' to simplify the implementation. - Add '#[test]'-like support based on KUnit. We already had doctests support based on KUnit, which takes the examples in our Rust documentation and runs them under KUnit. Now, we are adding the beginning of the support for "normal" tests, similar to those the '#[test]' tests in userspace Rust. For instance: #[kunit_tests(my_suite)] mod tests { #[test] fn my_test() { assert_eq!(1 + 1, 2); } } Unlike with doctests, the 'assert*!'s do not map to the KUnit assertion APIs yet. - Check Rust signatures at compile time for functions called from C by name. In particular, introduce a new '#[export]' macro that can be placed in the Rust function definition. It will ensure that the function declaration on the C side matches the signature on the Rust function: #[export] pub unsafe extern "C" fn my_function(a: u8, b: i32) -> usize { // ... } The macro essentially forces the compiler to compare the types of the actual Rust function and the 'bindgen'-processed C signature. These cases are rare so far. In the future, we may consider introducing another tool, 'cbindgen', to generate C headers automatically. Even then, having these functions explicitly marked may be a good idea anyway. - Enable the 'raw_ref_op' Rust feature: it is already stable, and allows us to use the new '&raw' syntax, avoiding a couple macros. After everyone has migrated, we will disallow the macros. - Pass the correct target to 'bindgen' on Usermode Linux. - Fix 'rusttest' build in macOS. 'kernel' crate: - New 'hrtimer' module: add support for setting up intrusive timers without allocating when starting the timer. Add support for 'Pin<Box<_>>', 'Arc<_>', 'Pin<&_>' and 'Pin<&mut _>' as pointer types for use with timer callbacks. Add support for setting clock source and timer mode. - New 'dma' module: add a simple DMA coherent allocator abstraction and a test sample driver. - 'list' module: make the linked list 'Cursor' point between elements, rather than at an element, which is more convenient to us and allows for cursors to empty lists; and document it with examples of how to perform common operations with the provided methods. - 'str' module: implement a few traits for 'BStr' as well as the 'strip_prefix()' method. - 'sync' module: add 'Arc::as_ptr'. - 'alloc' module: add 'Box::into_pin'. - 'error' module: extend the 'Result' documentation, including a few examples on different ways of handling errors, a warning about using methods that may panic, and links to external documentation. 'macros' crate: - 'module' macro: add the 'authors' key to support multiple authors. The original key will be kept until everyone has migrated. Documentation: - Add error handling sections. MAINTAINERS: - Add Danilo Krummrich as reviewer of the Rust "subsystem". - Add 'RUST [PIN-INIT]' entry with Benno Lossin as maintainer. It has its own sub-tree. - Add sub-tree for 'RUST [ALLOC]'. - Add 'DMA MAPPING HELPERS DEVICE DRIVER API [RUST]' entry with Abdiel Janulgue as primary maintainer. It will go through the sub-tree of the 'RUST [ALLOC]' entry. - Add 'HIGH-RESOLUTION TIMERS [RUST]' entry with Andreas Hindborg as maintainer. It has its own sub-tree.

2024-07-08kbuild: rust: remove now-unneeded `rusttest` custom sysroot handlingMiguel Ojeda
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.

2024-02-18docs: rust: Add description of Rust documentation test as KUnit onesDirk Behme
Rust documentation tests are automatically converted into KUnit tests. The commit adding this feature commit a66d733da801 ("rust: support running Rust documentation tests as KUnit ones") from Miguel has a very nice commit message with a lot details for this. To not 'hide' that just in a commit message, pick the main parts of it and add it to the documentation. And add a short info how to enable this. While adding this, improve the structure of the sections.
