51d3a25ab3 rust: alloc: add RawVec::try_with_capacity_in() constructor
Add the `RawVec::try_with_capacity_in()` constructor as the fallible
version of `RawVec::with_capacity_in()`.

The implementation follows the original.

The infallible constructor is implemented in terms of the private
`RawVec::allocate_in()` constructor, thus also add the private
`RawVec::try_allocate_in()` constructor following the other.

It will be used to implement `Vec::try_with_capacity{,_in}()` in
the next patch.

25d176a4fa rust: prelude: add error::code::* constant items
It is convenient to have all the `Error` constant items (such as
`EINVAL`) available as-is everywhere (i.e. for code using the kernel
prelude such as kernel modules).

Therefore, add all of them to the prelude.

For instance, this allows to write `Err(EINVAL)` to create
a kernel `Result`:

    fn f() -> Result<...> {
        ...
        Err(EINVAL)
    }

76e2c2d9a2 rust: error: add From implementations for Error
Add a set of `From` implementations for the `Error` kernel type.

These implementations allow to easily convert from standard Rust
error types to the usual kernel errors based on one of the `E*`
integer codes.

On top of that, the question mark Rust operator (`?`) implicitly
performs a conversion on the error value using the `From` trait
when propagating. Thus it is extra convenient to use.

For instance, a kernel function that needs to convert a `i64` into
a `i32` and to bubble up the error as a kernel error may write:

    fn f(x: i64) -> Result<...> {
        ...
        let y = i32::try_from(x)?;
        ...
    }

which will transform the `TryFromIntError` into an `Err(EINVAL)`.

b13c9880f9 rust: macros: take string literals in module!
Instead of taking binary string literals, take string ones instead,
making it easier for users to define a module, i.e. instead of
calling `module!` like:

    module! {
        ...
        name: b"rust_minimal",
        ...
    }

now it is called as:

    module! {
        ...
        name: "rust_minimal",
        ...
    }

Module names, aliases and license strings are restricted to
ASCII only. However, the author and the description allows UTF-8.

For simplicity (avoid parsing), escape sequences and raw string
literals are not yet handled.

b44becc5ee rust: macros: add #[vtable] proc macro
This procedural macro attribute provides a simple way to declare
a trait with a set of operations that later users can partially
implement, providing compile-time `HAS_*` boolean associated
constants that indicate whether a particular operation was overridden.

This is useful as the Rust counterpart to structs like
`file_operations` where some pointers may be `NULL`, indicating
an operation is not provided.

For instance:

    #[vtable]
    trait Operations {
        fn read(...) -> Result<usize> {
            Err(EINVAL)
        }

        fn write(...) -> Result<usize> {
            Err(EINVAL)
        }
    }

    #[vtable]
    impl Operations for S {
        fn read(...) -> Result<usize> {
            ...
        }
    }

    assert_eq!(<S as Operations>::HAS_READ, true);
    assert_eq!(<S as Operations>::HAS_WRITE, false);

60f18c225f rust: macros: add concat_idents! proc macro
This macro provides similar functionality to the unstable feature
`concat_idents` without having to rely on it.

For instance:

    let x_1 = 42;
    let x_2 = concat_idents!(x, _1);
    assert!(x_1 == x_2);

It has different behavior with respect to macro hygiene. Unlike
the unstable `concat_idents!` macro, it allows, for example,
referring to local variables by taking the span of the second
macro as span for the output identifier.

`group_imports` and `imports_granularity` (both currently unstable).

8fcbf02492 rust: export generated symbols
All symbols are reexported reusing the `EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL` macro
from C. The lists of symbols are generated on the fly.

There are three main sets of symbols to distinguish:

  - The ones from the `core` and `alloc` crates (from the Rust
    standard library). The code is licensed as Apache/MIT.

  - The ones from our abstractions in the `kernel` crate.

  - The helpers (already exported since they are not generated).

We export everything as GPL. This ensures we do not mistakenly
expose GPL kernel symbols/features as non-GPL, even indirectly.

247b365dc8 rust: add kernel crate
The `kernel` crate currently includes all the abstractions that wrap
kernel features written in C.

These abstractions call the C side of the kernel via the generated
bindings with the `bindgen` tool. Modules developed in Rust should
never call the bindings themselves.

In the future, as the abstractions grow in number, we may need
to split this crate into several, possibly following a similar
subdivision in subsystems as the kernel itself and/or moving
the code to the actual subsystems.

8326ac05ee rust: add bindings crate
This crate contains the bindings to the C side of the kernel.

Calling C (in general, FFI) is assumed to be unsafe in Rust
and, in many cases, this is accurate. For instance, virtually
all C functions that take a pointer are unsafe since, typically,
it will be dereferenced at some point (and in most cases there
is no way for the callee to check its validity beforehand).

Since one of the goals of using Rust in the kernel is precisely
to avoid unsafe code in "leaf" kernel modules (e.g. drivers),
these bindings should not be used directly by them.

Instead, these bindings need to be wrapped into safe abstractions.
These abstractions provide a safe API that kernel modules can use.
In this way, unsafe code in kernel modules is minimized.

057b8d2571 rust: adapt alloc crate to the kernel
This customizes the subset of the Rust standard library `alloc` that
was just imported as-is, mainly by:

  - Adding SPDX license identifiers.

  - Skipping modules (e.g. `rc` and `sync`) via new `cfg`s.

  - Adding fallible (`try_*`) versions of existing infallible methods
    (i.e. returning a `Result` instead of panicking).

    Since the standard library requires stable/unstable attributes,
    these additions are annotated with:

        #[stable(feature = "kernel", since = "1.0.0")]

    Using "kernel" as the feature allows to have the additions
    clearly marked. The "1.0.0" version is just a placeholder.

    (At the moment, only one is needed, but in the future more
    fallible methods will be added).

753dece88d rust: import upstream alloc crate
This is a subset of the Rust standard library `alloc` crate,
version 1.62.0, licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", from:

    https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/tree/1.62.0/library/alloc/src

The files are copied as-is, with no modifications whatsoever
(not even adding the SPDX identifiers).

For copyright details, please see:

    https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/1.62.0/COPYRIGHT

The next patch modifies these files as needed for use within
the kernel. This patch split allows reviewers to double-check
the import and to clearly see the differences introduced.

Vendoring `alloc`, at least for the moment, allows us to have fallible
allocations support (i.e. the `try_*` versions of methods which return
a `Result` instead of panicking) early on. It also gives a bit more
freedom to experiment with new interfaces and to iterate quickly.

Eventually, the goal is to have everything the kernel needs in
upstream `alloc` and drop it from the kernel tree.

For a summary of work on `alloc` happening upstream, please see:

    https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/408

The following script may be used to verify the contents:

    for path in $(cd rust/alloc/ && find . -type f -name '*.rs'); do
        curl --silent --show-error --location \

12f577216a rust: add C helpers
Introduces the source file that will contain forwarders to C macros
and inlined functions.

Initially this only contains a single helper, but will gain more as
more functionality is added to the `kernel` crate in the future.
