commit 49ceae68a0df9a92617a61e9ce8a0efcf6419585 upstream.

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::&lt;core::convert::Infallible&gt;::init(kernel::init::zeroed())`.

Thus, remove the implementation of `Zeroable` for `Infallible`, thereby
avoiding the unsoundness (potential for future UB).

commit 323617f649c0966ad5e741e47e27e06d3a680d8f upstream.

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.

Some of our links use relative paths in order to point to files in the
source tree, e.g.:

    //! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](../../../../include/linux/printk.h)
    /// [`struct mutex`]: ../../../../include/linux/mutex.h

These are problematic because they are hard to maintain and do not support
`O=` builds.

Instead, provide support for `srctree`-relative links, e.g.:

    //! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](srctree/include/linux/printk.h)
    /// [`struct mutex`]: srctree/include/linux/mutex.h

The links are fixed after `rustdoc` generation to be based on the absolute
path to the source tree.

Essentially, this is the automatic version of Tomonori's fix [1],
suggested by Gary [2].

Currently, `CondVar::wait()` is an interruptible wait, and this is
different than `wait_event()` in include/linux/wait.h (which is an
uninterruptible wait). To avoid confusion between different APIs on the
interruptible/uninterruptible, make `CondVar::wait()` an uninterruptible
wait same as `wait_event()`, also rename the old `wait()` to
`CondVar::wait_interruptible()`.

This macro creates an array of kernel's `struct phy_driver` and
registers it. This also corresponds to the kernel's
`MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE` macro, which embeds the information for module
loading into the module binary file.

A PHY driver should use this macro.

<title>rust: core abstractions for network PHY drivers</title>

<id>f20fd5449ada3872dcd67aca397f0e27ca2e8ad6</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds abstractions to implement network PHY drivers; the
driver registration and bindings for some of callback functions in
struct phy_driver and many genphy_ functions.

This feature is enabled with CONFIG_RUST_PHYLIB_ABSTRACTIONS=y.

This patch enables unstable const_maybe_uninit_zeroed feature for
kernel crate to enable unsafe code to handle a constant value with
uninitialized data. With the feature, the abstractions can initialize
a phy_driver structure with zero easily; instead of initializing all
the members by hand. It's supposed to be stable in the not so distant
future.

This patch adds abstractions to implement network PHY drivers; the
driver registration and bindings for some of callback functions in
struct phy_driver and many genphy_ functions.

This feature is enabled with CONFIG_RUST_PHYLIB_ABSTRACTIONS=y.

This patch enables unstable const_maybe_uninit_zeroed feature for
kernel crate to enable unsafe code to handle a constant value with
uninitialized data. With the feature, the abstractions can initialize
a phy_driver structure with zero easily; instead of initializing all
the members by hand. It's supposed to be stable in the not so distant
future.

Traits marked with `#[vtable]` need to provide default implementations
for optional functions. The C side represents these with `NULL` in the
vtable, so the default functions are never actually called. We do not
want to replicate the default behavior from C in Rust, because that is
not maintainable. Therefore we should use `build_error` in those default
implementations. The error message for that is provided at
`kernel::error::VTABLE_DEFAULT_ERROR`.

<title>rust: bindings: rename const binding using sed</title>

Currently, for `const`s that bindgen doesn't recognise, we define a
helper constant with

    const &lt;TYPE&gt; BINDINGS_&lt;NAME&gt; = &lt;NAME&gt;;

in `bindings_helper.h` and then we put

    pub const &lt;NAME&gt;: &lt;TYPE&gt; = BINDINGS_&lt;NAME&gt;;

in `bindings/lib.rs`. This is fine since we currently only have 3
constants that are defined this way, but is going to be more annoying
when more constants are added since every new constant needs to be
defined in two places.

This patch changes the way we define constant helpers to

    const &lt;TYPE&gt; RUST_CONST_HELPER_&lt;NAME&gt; = &lt;NAME&gt;;

and then use `sed` to postprocess Rust code generated by bindgen to
remove the distinct prefix, so users of the `bindings` crate can refer
to the name directly.
