Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Enable a set of Clippy lints: 'ptr_as_ptr', 'ptr_cast_constness',
'as_ptr_cast_mut', 'as_underscore', 'cast_lossless' and
'ref_as_ptr'
These are intended to avoid type casts with the 'as' operator,
which are quite powerful, into restricted variants that are less
powerful and thus should help to avoid mistakes
- Remove the 'author' key now that most instances were moved to the
plural one in the previous cycle
'kernel' crate:
- New 'bug' module: add 'warn_on!' macro which reuses the existing
'BUG'/'WARN' infrastructure, i.e. it respects the usual sysctls and
kernel parameters:
warn_on!(value == 42);
To avoid duplicating the assembly code, the same strategy is
followed as for the static branch code in order to share the
assembly between both C and Rust
This required a few rearrangements on C arch headers -- the
existing C macros should still generate the same outputs, thus no
functional change expected there
- 'workqueue' module: add delayed work items, including a
'DelayedWork' struct, a 'impl_has_delayed_work!' macro and an
'enqueue_delayed' method, e.g.:
/// Enqueue the struct for execution on the system workqueue,
/// where its value will be printed 42 jiffies later.
fn print_later(value: Arc<MyStruct>) {
let _ = workqueue::system().enqueue_delayed(value, 42);
}
- New 'bits' module: add support for 'bit' and 'genmask' functions,
with runtime- and compile-time variants, e.g.:
static_assert!(0b00010000 == bit_u8(4));
static_assert!(0b00011110 == genmask_u8(1..=4));
assert!(checked_bit_u32(u32::BITS).is_none());
- 'uaccess' module: add 'UserSliceReader::strcpy_into_buf', which
reads NUL-terminated strings from userspace into a '&CStr'
Introduce 'UserPtr' newtype, similar in purpose to '__user' in C,
to minimize mistakes handling userspace pointers, including mixing
them up with integers and leaking them via the 'Debug' trait. Add
it to the prelude, too
- Start preparations for the replacement of our custom 'CStr' type
with the analogous type in the 'core' standard library. This will
take place across several cycles to make it easier. For this one,
it includes a new 'fmt' module, using upstream method names and
some other cleanups
Replace 'fmt!' with a re-export, which helps Clippy lint properly,
and clean up the found 'uninlined-format-args' instances
- 'dma' module:
- Clarify wording and be consistent in 'coherent' nomenclature
- Convert the 'read!()' and 'write!()' macros to return a 'Result'
- Add 'as_slice()', 'write()' methods in 'CoherentAllocation'
- Expose 'count()' and 'size()' in 'CoherentAllocation' and add
the corresponding type invariants
- Implement 'CoherentAllocation::dma_handle_with_offset()'
- 'time' module:
- Make 'Instant' generic over clock source. This allows the
compiler to assert that arithmetic expressions involving the
'Instant' use 'Instants' based on the same clock source
- Make 'HrTimer' generic over the timer mode. 'HrTimer' timers
take a 'Duration' or an 'Instant' when setting the expiry time,
depending on the timer mode. With this change, the compiler can
check the type matches the timer mode
- Add an abstraction for 'fsleep'. 'fsleep' is a flexible sleep
function that will select an appropriate sleep method depending
on the requested sleep time
- Avoid 64-bit divisions on 32-bit hardware when calculating
timestamps
- Seal the 'HrTimerMode' trait. This prevents users of the
'HrTimerMode' from implementing the trait on their own types
- Pass the correct timer mode ID to 'hrtimer_start_range_ns()'
- 'list' module: remove 'OFFSET' constants, allowing to remove
pointer arithmetic; now 'impl_list_item!' invokes
'impl_has_list_links!' or 'impl_has_list_links_self_ptr!'. Other
simplifications too
- 'types' module: remove 'ForeignOwnable::PointedTo' in favor of a
constant, which avoids exposing the type of the opaque pointer, and
require 'into_foreign' to return non-null
Remove the 'Either<L, R>' type as well. It is unused, and we want
to encourage the use of custom enums for concrete use cases
- 'sync' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Arc' types
to allow them to be used in generic APIs
- 'alloc' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Box<T, A>';
and 'Borrow', 'BorrowMut' and 'Default' for 'Vec<T, A>'
- 'Opaque' type: add 'cast_from' method to perform a restricted cast
that cannot change the inner type and use it in callers of
'container_of!'. Rename 'raw_get' to 'cast_into' to match it
- 'rbtree' module: add 'is_empty' method
- 'sync' module: new 'aref' submodule to hold 'AlwaysRefCounted' and
'ARef', which are moved from the too general 'types' module which
we want to reduce or eventually remove. Also fix a safety comment
in 'static_lock_class'
'pin-init' crate:
- Add 'impl<T, E> [Pin]Init<T, E> for Result<T, E>', so results are
now (pin-)initializers
- Add 'Zeroable::init_zeroed()' that delegates to 'init_zeroed()'
- New 'zeroed()', a safe version of 'mem::zeroed()' and also provide
it via 'Zeroable::zeroed()'
- Implement 'Zeroable' for 'Option<&T>', 'Option<&mut T>' and for
'Option<[unsafe] [extern "abi"] fn(...args...) -> ret>' for
'"Rust"' and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20 arguments
- Changed blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl<T, E>
[Pin]Init<T, E> for T' to 'impl<T> [Pin]Init<T> for T'
- Renamed 'zeroed()' to 'init_zeroed()'
- Upstream dev news: improve CI more to deny warnings, use
'--all-targets'. Check the synchronization status of the two
'-next' branches in upstream and the kernel
MAINTAINERS:
- Add Vlastimil Babka, Liam R. Howlett, Uladzislau Rezki and Lorenzo
Stoakes as reviewers (thanks everyone)

Provide an accessor for the Device a Devres instance has been created
with.
For instance, this is useful when registrations want to provide a
&Device<Bound> for a scope that is protected by Devres.

Users may want to access the Devres object from callbacks registered
through the initialization of Devres::inner::data.
For those accesses to be valid, Devres::inner::data must be initialized

So far Devres uses an inner memory allocation and reference count, i.e.
an inner Arc, in order to ensure that the devres callback can't run into
a use-after-free in case where the Devres object is dropped while the
devres callback runs concurrently.
Instead, use a completion in order to avoid a potential UAF: In
Devres::drop(), if we detect that we can't remove the devres action
anymore, we wait for the completion that is completed from the devres
callback. If, in turn, we were able to successfully remove the devres
action, we can just go ahead.
This, again, allows us to get rid of the internal Arc, and instead let
Devres consume an `impl PinInit<T, E>` in order to return an
`impl PinInit<Devres<T>, E>`, which enables us to get away with less
memory allocations.
Additionally, having the resulting explicit synchronization in
Devres::drop() prevents potential subtle undesired side effects of the
devres callback dropping the final Arc reference asynchronously within
the devres callback.

Replace Devres::new_foreign_owned() with devres::register().
The current implementation of Devres::new_foreign_owned() creates a full
Devres container instance, including the internal Revocable and
completion.
However, none of that is necessary for the intended use of giving full
ownership of an object to devres and getting it dropped once the given
device is unbound.
Hence, implement devres::register(), which is limited to consume the
given data, wrap it in a KBox and drop the KBox once the given device is
unbound, without any other synchronization.

Currently, Revocable::new() only supports infallible PinInit
implementations, i.e. impl PinInit<T, Infallible>.
This has been sufficient so far, since users such as Devres do not
support fallibility.

error type E.

In Rust 1.63.0, Clippy introduced the `as_underscore` lint [1]:
> The conversion might include lossy conversion or a dangerous cast that
> might go undetected due to the type being inferred.
>
> The lint is allowed by default as using `_` is less wordy than always
> specifying the type.
Always specifying the type is especially helpful in function call
contexts where the inferred type may change at a distance. Specifying
the type also allows Clippy to spot more cases of `useless_conversion`.
The primary downside is the need to specify the type in trivial getters.
There are 4 such functions: 3 have become slightly less ergonomic, 1 was
revealed to be a `useless_conversion`.
While this doesn't eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such
conversions easier to scrutinize. It also has the slight benefit of
removing a degree of freedom on which to bikeshed. Thus apply the
changes and enable the lint -- no functional change intended.

There is only one affected callsite, and the change amounts to replacing
`as _` with `.cast_mut().cast()`. This doesn't change the semantics, but
is more descriptive of what's going on.
Apply this change and enable the lint -- no functional change intended.

In Rust 1.51.0, Clippy introduced the `ptr_as_ptr` lint [1]:
> Though `as` casts between raw pointers are not terrible,
> `pointer::cast` is safer because it cannot accidentally change the
> pointer's mutability, nor cast the pointer to other types like `usize`.
There are a few classes of changes required:
- Modules generated by bindgen are marked
`#[allow(clippy::ptr_as_ptr)]`.
- Inferred casts (` as _`) are replaced with `.cast()`.
- Ascribed casts (` as *... T`) are replaced with `.cast::<T>()`.
- Multistep casts from references (` as *const _ as *const T`) are
replaced with `core::ptr::from_ref(&x).cast()` with or without `::<T>`
according to the previous rules. The `core::ptr::from_ref` call is
required because `(x as *const _).cast::<T>()` results in inference
failure.
- Native literal C strings are replaced with `c_str!().as_char_ptr()`.
- `*mut *mut T as _` is replaced with `let *mut *const T = (*mut *mut
T)`.cast();` since pointer to pointer can be confusing.
Apply these changes and enable the lint -- no functional change
intended.

We can't expose direct access to the internal Revocable, since this
allows users to directly revoke the internal Revocable without Devres
having the chance to synchronize with the devres callback -- we have to
guarantee that the internal Revocable has been fully revoked before
the device is fully unbound.
Hence, remove the corresponding Deref implementation and, instead,
provide indirect accessors for the internal Revocable.
Note that we can still support Devres::revoke() by implementing the
required synchronization (which would be almost identical to the
synchronization in Devres::drop()).

In Devres::drop() we first remove the devres action and then drop the
wrapped device resource.
The design goal is to give the owner of a Devres object control over when
the device resource is dropped, but limit the overall scope to the
corresponding device being bound to a driver.
However, there's a race that was introduced with commit 8ff656643d30
("rust: devres: remove action in `Devres::drop`"), but also has been
(partially) present from the initial version on.
In Devres::drop(), the devres action is removed successfully and
subsequently the destructor of the wrapped device resource runs.
However, there is no guarantee that the destructor of the wrapped device
resource completes before the driver core is done unbinding the
corresponding device.
If in Devres::drop(), the devres action can't be removed, it means that
the devres callback has been executed already, or is still running
concurrently. In case of the latter, either Devres::drop() wins revoking
the Revocable or the devres callback wins revoking the Revocable. If
Devres::drop() wins, we (again) have no guarantee that the destructor of
the wrapped device resource completes before the driver core is done
unbinding the corresponding device.
CPU0 CPU1
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Devres::drop() { Devres::devres_callback() {
self.data.revoke() { this.data.revoke() {
is_available.swap() == true
is_available.swap == false
}
}
// [...]
// device fully unbound
drop_in_place() {
// release device resource
}
}
}
Depending on the specific device resource, this can potentially lead to
user-after-free bugs.
In order to fix this, implement the following logic.
In the devres callback, we're always good when we get to revoke the
device resource ourselves, i.e. Revocable::revoke() returns true.
If Revocable::revoke() returns false, it means that Devres::drop(),
concurrently, already drops the device resource and we have to wait for
Devres::drop() to signal that it finished dropping the device resource.
Note that if we hit the case where we need to wait for the completion of
Devres::drop() in the devres callback, it means that we're actually
racing with a concurrent Devres::drop() call, which already started
revoking the device resource for us. This is rather unlikely and means
that the concurrent Devres::drop() already started doing our work and we
just need to wait for it to complete it for us. Hence, there should not
be any additional overhead from that.
(Actually, for now it's even better if Devres::drop() does the work for
us, since it can bypass the synchronize_rcu() call implied by
Revocable::revoke(), but this goes away anyways once I get to implement
the split devres callback approach, which allows us to first flip the
atomics of all registered Devres objects of a certain device, execute a
single synchronize_rcu() and then drop all revocable objects.)
In Devres::drop() we try to revoke the device resource. If that is *not*
successful, it means that the devres callback already did and we're good.
Otherwise, we try to remove the devres action, which, if successful,
means that we're good, since the device resource has just been revoked
by us *before* we removed the devres action successfully.
If the devres action could not be removed, it means that the devres
callback must be running concurrently, hence we signal that the device
resource has been revoked by us, using the completion.
This makes it safe to drop a Devres object from any task and at any point
of time, which is one of the design goals.

Implement a direct accessor for the data stored within the Devres for
cases where we can prove that we own a reference to a Device<Bound>
(i.e. a bound device) of the same device that was used to create the
corresponding Devres container.
Usually, when accessing the data stored within a Devres container, it is
not clear whether the data has been revoked already due to the device
being unbound and, hence, we have to try whether the access is possible
and subsequently keep holding the RCU read lock for the duration of the
access.
However, when we can prove that we hold a reference to Device<Bound>
matching the device the Devres container has been created with, we can
guarantee that the device is not unbound for the duration of the
lifetime of the Device<Bound> reference and, hence, it is not possible
for the data within the Devres container to be revoked.
Therefore, in this case, we can bypass the atomic check and the RCU read
lock, which is a great optimization and simplification for drivers.

Add a Rust abstraction for the kernel's devres (device resource
management) implementation.
The Devres type acts as a container to manage the lifetime and
accessibility of device bound resources. Therefore it registers a
devres callback and revokes access to the resource on invocation.
Users of the Devres abstraction can simply free the corresponding
resources in their Drop implementation, which is invoked when either the
Devres instance goes out of scope or the devres callback leads to the
resource being revoked, which implies a call to drop_in_place().
