[ Upstream commit b8673d56935c32a4e0a1a0b40951fdd313dbf340 ]

Symbols in the bss segment are not currently exported. This is a problem
for Rust modules that link against statics, that are resident in the kernel
image. Thus export symbols in the bss segment.

toybox based xargs, used in the Android kernel build).

commit 7044dcff8301b29269016ebd17df27c4736140d2 upstream.

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.

<title>rust: module: place generated init_module() function in .init.text</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ca99731c13e4f2f8ebc1a7afbd54aad66f1bf175</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 1b6170ff7a203a5e8354f19b7839fe8b897a9c0d upstream.

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) -&gt; _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).

<title>btf, scripts: rust: drop is_rust_module.sh</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 41bdc6decda074afc4d8f8ba44c69b08d0e9aff6 upstream.

With commit c1177979af9c ("btf, scripts: Exclude Rust CUs with pahole")
we are now able to use pahole directly to identify Rust compilation
units (CUs) and exclude them from generating BTF debugging information
(when DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled).

And if pahole doesn't support the --lang-exclude flag, we can't enable
both RUST and DEBUG_INFO_BTF at the same time.

So, in any case, the script is_rust_module.sh is just redundant and we
can drop it.

NOTE: we may also be able to drop the "Rust loadable module" mark
inside Rust modules, but it seems safer to keep it for now to make sure
we are not breaking any external tool that may potentially rely on it.

This is kernel code, so specifying "kernel" is redundant. Let's simplify
things and just call it to_errno().

<title>kbuild: specify output names separately for each emission type from rustc</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 295d8398c67e314d99bb070f38883f83fe94a97a ]

In Kbuild, two different rules must not write to the same file, but
it happens when compiling rust source files.

For example, set CONFIG_SAMPLE_RUST_MINIMAL=m and run the following:

  $ make -j$(nproc) samples/rust/rust_minimal.o samples/rust/rust_minimal.rsi \
                    samples/rust/rust_minimal.s samples/rust/rust_minimal.ll
    [snip]
    RUSTC [M] samples/rust/rust_minimal.o
    RUSTC [M] samples/rust/rust_minimal.rsi
    RUSTC [M] samples/rust/rust_minimal.s
    RUSTC [M] samples/rust/rust_minimal.ll
  mv: cannot stat 'samples/rust/rust_minimal.d': No such file or directory
  make[3]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:334: samples/rust/rust_minimal.ll] Error 1
  make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  mv: cannot stat 'samples/rust/rust_minimal.d': No such file or directory
  make[3]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:309: samples/rust/rust_minimal.o] Error 1
  mv: cannot stat 'samples/rust/rust_minimal.d': No such file or directory
  make[3]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:326: samples/rust/rust_minimal.s] Error 1
  make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:504: samples/rust] Error 2
  make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:504: samples] Error 2
  make: *** [Makefile:2008: .] Error 2

The reason for the error is that 4 threads running in parallel renames
the same file, samples/rust/rust_minimal.d.

This does not happen when compiling C or assembly files because
-Wp,-MMD,$(depfile) explicitly specifies the dependency filepath.
$(depfile) is a unique path for each target.

Currently, rustc is only given --out-dir and --emit=&lt;list-of-types&gt;
So, all the rust build rules output the dep-info into the default
&lt;CRATE_NAME&gt;.d, which causes the path conflict.

Fortunately, the --emit option is able to specify the output path
individually, with the form --emit=&lt;type&gt;=&lt;path&gt;.

Add --emit=dep-info=$(depfile) to the common part. Also, remove the
redundant --out-dir because the output path is specified for each type.

The code gets much cleaner because we do not need to rename *.d files.

The thread that calls the module initialisation code when a module is
loaded is not guaranteed [in fact, it is unlikely] to be the same one
that calls the module cleanup code on module unload, therefore, `Module`
implementations must be `Send` to account for them moving from one
thread to another implicitly.

commit b3d8aa84bbfe9b58ccc5332cacf8ea17200af310 upstream.

Currently the rust allocator simply passes the size of the type Layout
to krealloc(), and in theory the alignment requirement from the type
Layout may be larger than the guarantee provided by SLAB, which means
the allocated object is mis-aligned.

Fix this by adjusting the allocation size to the nearest power of two,
which SLAB always guarantees a size-aligned allocation. And because Rust
guarantees that the original size must be a multiple of alignment and
the alignment must be a power of two, then the alignment requirement is
satisfied.
