Pull char / misc / iio driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big char/misc/iio and other small driver subsystem pull
request for 6.16-rc1.

normal constant forward progress of new device support and cleanups to
existing subsystems. Highlights in here are:
- Large IIO driver updates and additions and device tree changes
- Android binder bugfixes and logfile fixes
- mhi driver updates
- comedi driver updates
- counter driver updates and additions
- coresight driver updates and additions
- echo driver removal as there are no in-kernel users of it

- rust miscdriver binding documentation fix
- other small driver fixes and updates (uio, w1, acrn, hpet,
xillybus, cardreader drivers, fastrpc and others)
All of these have been in linux-next for quite a while with no
reported problems"

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- KUnit '#[test]'s:
- Support KUnit-mapped 'assert!' macros.
The support that landed last cycle was very basic, and the
'assert!' macros panicked since they were the standard library
ones. Now, they are mapped to the KUnit ones in a similar way to
how is done for doctests, reusing the infrastructure there.
With this, a failing test like:
#[test]
fn my_first_test() {
assert_eq!(42, 43);
}
will report:
# my_first_test: ASSERTION FAILED at rust/kernel/lib.rs:251
Expected 42 == 43 to be true, but is false
# my_first_test.speed: normal
not ok 1 my_first_test
- Support tests with checked 'Result' return types.
The return value of test functions that return a 'Result' will
be checked, thus one can now easily catch errors when e.g. using
the '?' operator in tests.
With this, a failing test like:
#[test]
fn my_test() -> Result {
f()?;
Ok(())
}
will report:
# my_test: ASSERTION FAILED at rust/kernel/lib.rs:321
Expected is_test_result_ok(my_test()) to be true, but is false
# my_test.speed: normal
not ok 1 my_test
- Add 'kunit_tests' to the prelude.
- Clarify the remaining language unstable features in use.
- Compile 'core' with edition 2024 for Rust >= 1.87.
- Workaround 'bindgen' issue with forward references to 'enum' types.
- objtool: relax slice condition to cover more 'noreturn' functions.
- Use absolute paths in macros referencing 'core' and 'kernel'
crates.
- Skip '-mno-fdpic' flag for bindgen in GCC 32-bit arm builds.
- Clean some 'doc_markdown' lint hits -- we may enable it later on.
'kernel' crate:
- 'alloc' module:
- 'Box': support for type coercion, e.g. 'Box<T>' to 'Box<dyn U>'
if 'T' implements 'U'.
- 'Vec': implement new methods (prerequisites for nova-core and
binder): 'truncate', 'resize', 'clear', 'pop',
'push_within_capacity' (with new error type 'PushError'),
'drain_all', 'retain', 'remove' (with new error type
'RemoveError'), insert_within_capacity' (with new error type
'InsertError').
In addition, simplify 'push' using 'spare_capacity_mut', split
'set_len' into 'inc_len' and 'dec_len', add type invariant 'len
<= capacity' and simplify 'truncate' using 'dec_len'.
- 'time' module:
- Morph the Rust hrtimer subsystem into the Rust timekeeping
subsystem, covering delay, sleep, timekeeping, timers. This new
subsystem has all the relevant timekeeping C maintainers listed
in the entry.
- Replace 'Ktime' with 'Delta' and 'Instant' types to represent a
duration of time and a point in time.
- Temporarily add 'Ktime' to 'hrtimer' module to allow 'hrtimer'
to delay converting to 'Instant' and 'Delta'.
- 'xarray' module:
- Add a Rust abstraction for the 'xarray' data structure. This
abstraction allows Rust code to leverage the 'xarray' to store
types that implement 'ForeignOwnable'. This support is a
dependency for memory backing feature of the Rust null block
driver, which is waiting to be merged.
- Set up an entry in 'MAINTAINERS' for the XArray Rust support.
Patches will go to the new Rust XArray tree and then via the
Rust subsystem tree for now.
- Allow 'ForeignOwnable' to carry information about the pointed-to
type. This helps asserting alignment requirements for the
pointer passed to the foreign language.
- 'container_of!': retain pointer mut-ness and add a compile-time
check of the type of the first parameter ('$field_ptr').
- Support optional message in 'static_assert!'.
- Add C FFI types (e.g. 'c_int') to the prelude.
- 'str' module: simplify KUnit tests 'format!' macro, convert
'rusttest' tests into KUnit, take advantage of the '-> Result'
support in KUnit '#[test]'s.
- 'list' module: add examples for 'List', fix path of
'assert_pinned!' (so far unused macro rule).
- 'workqueue' module: remove 'HasWork::OFFSET'.
- 'page' module: add 'inline' attribute.
'macros' crate:
- 'module' macro: place 'cleanup_module()' in '.exit.text' section.
'pin-init' crate:
- Add 'Wrapper<T>' trait for creating pin-initializers for wrapper
structs with a structurally pinned value such as 'UnsafeCell<T>' or
'MaybeUninit<T>'.
- Add 'MaybeZeroable' derive macro to try to derive 'Zeroable', but
not error if not all fields implement it. This is needed to derive
'Zeroable' for all bindgen-generated structs.
- Add 'unsafe fn cast_[pin_]init()' functions to unsafely change the
initialized type of an initializer. These are utilized by the
'Wrapper<T>' implementations.
- Add support for visibility in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Add support for 'union's in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Upstream dev news: streamline CI, fix some bugs. Add new workflows
to check if the user-space version and the one in the kernel tree
have diverged. Use the issues tab [1] to track them, which should
help folks report and diagnose issues w.r.t. 'pin-init' better.
[1] https://github.com/rust-for-linux/pin-init/issues
Documentation:
- Testing: add docs on the new KUnit '#[test]' tests.
- Coding guidelines: explain that '///' vs. '//' applies to private
items too. Add section on C FFI types.
- Quick Start guide: update Ubuntu instructions and split them into
"25.04" and "24.04 LTS and older".
And a few other cleanups and improvements"

Add the ability to write a file_operations->mmap hook in Rust when using
the miscdevice abstraction. The `vma` argument to the `mmap` hook uses
the `VmaNew` type from the previous commit; this type provides the correct

Allow implementors to specify the foreign pointer type; this exposes
information about the pointed-to type such as its alignment.
This requires the trait to be `unsafe` since it is now possible for
implementors to break soundness by returning a misaligned pointer.
Encoding the pointer type in the trait (and avoiding pointer casts)
allows the compiler to check that implementors return the correct
pointer type. This is preferable to directly encoding the alignment in
the trait using a constant as the compiler would be unable to check it.

I was helping someone with writing a new Rust abstraction, and we were
using the miscdevice abstraction as an example. While doing this, it
became clear to me that the way I implemented the f_ops vtable is
confusing to new Rust users, and that the approach used by the block
abstractions is less confusing.
Thus, update the miscdevice abstractions to use the same approach as
rust/kernel/block/mq/operations.rs.
Sorry about the large diff. This changes the indentation of a large
amount of code.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core and debugfs updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at
least one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is
working on tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone
else's linux-next use), it does not seem like a big issue at the
moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core rust bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o
functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing
things in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon""

The function called build_error is an implementation detail of the macro
of the same name. Thus, update miscdevice to use the macro rather than
the function. See [1] for more information on this.
These use the macro with the kernel:: prefix as it has not yet been
added to the prelude.

The sibling `build_assert!` is already in the prelude, it makes sense
that a "core"/"language" facility like this is part of the prelude and
users should not be defining their own one (thus there should be no risk
of future name collisions and we would want to be aware of them anyway).
Thus add `build_error!` into the prelude.

The following FFI types are replaced compared to `core::ffi`:
1. `char` type is now always mapped to `u8`, since kernel uses
`-funsigned-char` on the C code. `core::ffi` maps it to platform
default ABI, which can be either signed or unsigned.
2. `long` is now always mapped to `isize`. It's very common in the
kernel to use `long` to represent a pointer-sized integer, and in
fact `intptr_t` is a typedef of `long` in the kernel. Enforce this
mapping rather than mapping to `i32/i64` depending on platform can
save us a lot of unnecessary casts.

In the last kernel cycle we migrated most of the `core::ffi` cases in
commit d072acda4862 ("rust: use custom FFI integer types"):
Currently FFI integer types are defined in libcore. This commit
creates the `ffi` crate and asks bindgen to use that crate for FFI
integer types instead of `core::ffi`.
This commit is preparatory and no type changes are made in this
commit yet.
Finish now the few remaining/new cases so that we perform the actual
remapping in the next commit as planned.

Providing access to the underlying `struct miscdevice` is useful for
various reasons. For example, this allows you access the miscdevice's
internal `struct device` for use with the `dev_*` printing macros.
Note that since the underlying `struct miscdevice` could get freed at
any point after the fops->open() call (if misc_deregister is called),
only the open call is given access to it. To use `dev_*` printing macros
from other fops hooks, take a refcount on `miscdevice->this_device` to
keep it alive. See the linked thread for further discussion on the
lifetime of `struct miscdevice`.

Thus, fix it.

Provide a `MiscDevice` trait that lets you specify the file operations
that you wish to provide for your misc device. For now, only three file
operations are provided: open, close, ioctl.
These abstractions only support MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR. This enforces that
new miscdevices should not hard-code a minor number.
When implementing ioctl, the Result type is used. This means that you
can choose to return either of:
* An integer of type isize.
* An errno using the kernel::error::Error type.
When returning an isize, the integer is returned verbatim. It's mainly
intended for returning positive integers to userspace. However, it is
technically possible to return errors via the isize return value too.
To avoid having a dependency on files, this patch does not provide the
file operations callbacks a pointer to the file. This means that they
cannot check file properties such as O_NONBLOCK (which Binder needs).
Support for that can be added as a follow-up.
To avoid having a dependency on vma, this patch does not provide any way
to implement mmap (which Binder needs). Support for that can be added as
a follow-up.
Rust Binder will use these abstractions to create the /dev/binder file
when binderfs is disabled.
