In the `init!`/`pin_init!` macros, we rely on a trick that assigns never
(`!`) values to all mentioned fields in never-executed code to let the
compiler check that all fields have been initialized.
Currently we use `::core::panic!()` to produce this value, but before Rust
1.91.0, it creates outlined `panic_cold_explicit` functions which do not
get removed by the optimizer, thus leaving dead code behind in the binary.
This has been fixed by [1], which lands in Rust 1.91.0+, higher than the
kernel minimum version 1.85.0.
This causes ~200 dead `panic_cold_explicit` instances being included in the
binary, with ~90 of them from nova-core's usage of pin-init.
Work around the issue by using `loop {}` which creates the never value
without macro expansion or function call at all. All instances of
`panic_cold_explicit` outside libcore are removed by this change in my
kernel build.

Instead of projecting using pointer to a field project the full slot. This
further shifts the code generation from the initializer site to the struct
definition site, which means less code is generated overall.
It also makes the safety comment easier to justify, as now the projection
is done by the `#[pin_data]` macro which has full visibility of pinnedness
of fields.
The field alignment could also be checked on the `#[pin_data]` side;
however, since `init!()` macro works for other type of structs, we cannot
remove the alignment check from `init!`/`pin_init!` side anyway, so I opted
to still keep the alignment check in init.rs.

The `InitData` and `PinData` traits do not need to exist, the inference

There is no risk for calling the wrong methods even when user defines it,

With this change, it unlocks the possibility of attaching additional bounds
to the method per type, which is not possible for trait methods.

Instead of projecting the created reference, simply create drop guards with

Currently, the `pin_init` library has an `Invariant` type alias, and it is
instantiated using `PhantomData`. Generated code from `pin_data` on the
other hand cannot access the crate-local type alias, so it generates
`PhantomData<fn(T) -> T>` directly. This is all very inconsistent, despite
the exact same use case of ensuring invariance.
Add `PhantomInvariant` and `PhantomInvariantLifetime` and switch all users
that need to express the concept of invariance to use these. They're
polyfills of unstable types in the same names in the Rust standard library.

This removes the `lint_reasons` feature which is stabilized in 1.81 and the

Given we do not use any features that are stabilized in 1.82..=1.85 range,

When a field has been initialized, `init!`/`pin_init!` create a reference
or pinned reference to the field so it can be accessed later during the
initialization of other fields. However, the reference it created is
incorrectly `&'static` rather than just the scope of the initializer.
This means that you can do
init!(Foo {
a: 1,
_: {
let b: &'static u32 = a;
}
})
which is unsound.
This is caused by `&mut (*#slot).#ident`, which actually allows arbitrary
lifetime, so this is effectively `'static`. Somewhat ironically, the safety
justification of creating the accessor is.. "SAFETY: TODO".
Fix it by adding `let_binding` method on `DropGuard` to shorten lifetime.
This results in exactly what we want for these accessors. The safety and
invariant comments of `DropGuard` have been reworked; instead of reasoning
about what caller can do with the guard, express it in a way that the
ownership is transferred to the guard and `forget` takes it back, so the
unsafe operations within the `DropGuard` can be more easily justified.

We use a unit struct `__InitOk` in the closure generated by the
initializer macros as the return value. We shadow it by creating a
struct with the same name again inside of the closure, preventing early
returns of `Ok` in the initializer (before all fields have been
initialized).
In the face of Type Alias Impl Trait (TAIT) and the next trait solver,
this solution no longer works [1]. The shadowed struct can be named
through type inference. In addition, there is an RFC proposing to add
the feature of path inference to Rust, which would similarly allow [2].
Thus remove the shadowed token and replace it with an `unsafe` to create
token.
The reason we initially used the shadowing solution was because an
alternative solution used a builder pattern. Gary writes [3]:
In the early builder-pattern based InitOk, having a single InitOk
type for token is unsound because one can launder an InitOk token
used for one place to another initializer. I used a branded lifetime
solution, and then you figured out that using a shadowed type would
work better because nobody could construct it at all.
The laundering issue does not apply to the approach we ended up with
today.
With this change, the example by Tim Chirananthavat in [1] no longer
compiles and results in this error:

Gary noticed [1] that the initializer macros as well as the `[Pin]Init`
traits cannot support unaligned fields, since they use operations that
require aligned pointers. This means that any code using structs with
unaligned fields in pin-init is unsound.
By default, the `init!` macro generates references to initialized fields,
which makes the compiler check that those fields are aligned. However,
we added the `#[disable_initialized_field_access]` attribute to avoid
this behavior in commit ceca298c53 ("rust: pin-init: internal: init:
add escape hatch for referencing initialized fields"). Thus remove the
`#[disable_initialized_field_access]` attribute from `init!`, which is
the only safe way to create an initializer handling unaligned fields.
If support for in-place initializing structs with unaligned fields is
required in the future, we could figure out a solution. This is tracked
in [2].

The initializer macro emits mutable references for already initialized
fields, which allows modifying or accessing them later in code blocks or
when initializing other fields. This behavior results in compiler errors
when combining with packed structs, since those do not permit creating
references to misaligned fields. For example:
#[repr(C, packed)]
struct Foo {
a: i8,
b: i32,
}
fn main() {
let _ = init!(Foo { a: -42, b: 42 });
}

This was requested by Janne Grunau [1] and will most certainly be used
by the kernel when we eventually end up with trying to initialize packed
structs.
Thus add an initializer attribute `#[disable_initialized_field_access]`
that does what the name suggests: do not generate references to already
initialized fields.
There is space for future work: add yet another attribute which can be
applied on fields of initializers that ask for said field to be made
accessible. We can add that when the need arises.

The API is similar to diagnostics handling in rustc and uses a
`ErrorGuaranteed` value to signify that an error has been emitted. It
supports both fatal errors (which abort the macro expansion immediately
by returning `Err(ErrorGuaranteed)`) and non-fatal ones at generation
time. These errors are appended to the token stream after generation has

[ remove duplicate word in commit message - Benno ]

`syn` makes parsing Rust from proc-macros a lot simpler. `pin-init` has
not used `syn` up until now, because the we did not support it. That
changed in commit 54e3eae855 ("Merge patch series "`syn` support""),
so we can finally utilize the added ergonomics of parsing proc-macro
input with `syn`.
Previously we only had the `proc-macro` library available, whereas the
user-space version also used `proc-macro2` and `quote`. Now both are
available, so remove the workarounds.
Due to these changes, clippy emits warnings about unnecessary
`.to_string()` as `proc-macro2` provides an additional `PartialEq` impl
on `Ident`, so the warnings are fixed.

Pull pin-init updates from Benno Lossin:
"Added:
- 'Wrapper<T>' trait for creating pin-initializers for wrapper
structs with a structurally pinned value such as 'UnsafeCell<T>' or
'MaybeUninit<T>'.
- '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.
- 'unsafe fn cast_[pin_]init()' functions to unsafely change the
initialized type of an initializer. These are utilized by the
'Wrapper<T>' implementations.
Changed:
- Added support for visibility in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
- Added support for 'union's in 'Zeroable' derive macro.
Upstream dev news:
- The CI has been streamlined & some bugs with it have been fixed. I
also added new workflows to check if the user-space version and the
one in the kernel tree have diverged.
- I also started to use the issues [1] tab to keep track of any
problems or unexpected/unwanted things. This should help folks
report and diagnose issues w.r.t. 'pin-init' better.

Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (expected 2025-06-26) [1], `rustc` may move
back the `uninlined_format_args` to `style` from `pedantic` (it was
there waiting for rust-analyzer suppotr), and thus we will start to see
lints like:
warning: variables can be used directly in the `format!` string
--> rust/macros/kunit.rs:105:37
|
105 | let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{}", test);
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
= help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#uninlined_format_args
help: change this to
|
105 - let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{}", test);
105 + let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{test}");
There is even a case that is a pure removal:
warning: variables can be used directly in the `format!` string
--> rust/macros/module.rs:51:13
|
51 | format!("{field}={content}\0", field = field, content = content)
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

help: change this to
|
51 - format!("{field}={content}\0", field = field, content = content)
51 + format!("{field}={content}\0")
The lints all seem like nice cleanups, thus just apply them.
We may want to disable `allow-mixed-uninlined-format-args` in the future.

This derive macro implements `Zeroable` for structs & unions precisely
if all fields also implement `Zeroable` and does nothing otherwise. The
plain `Zeroable` derive macro instead errors when it cannot derive
`Zeroable` safely. The `MaybeZeroable` derive macro is useful in cases
where manual checking is infeasible such as with the bindings crate.
Move the zeroable generics parsing into a standalone function in order
to avoid code duplication between the two derive macros.

The `quote` module only is available in the kernel and thus running
`cargo fmt` or `rustfmt internal/src/lib.rs` in the user-space
repository [1] results in:
error: couldn't read `~/pin-init/internal/src/../../../macros/quote.rs`: No such file or directory (os error 2)
--> ~/pin-init/internal/src/lib.rs:25:1

25 | mod quote;

Error writing files: failed to resolve mod `quote`: ~/pin-init/internal/src/../../../macros/quote.rs does not exist
Thus mark it with `rustfmt::skip` when compiling without kernel support.

Synchronize the internal macros crate with the user-space version that
uses the quote crate [1] instead of a custom `quote!` macro. The imports
in the different version are achieved using `cfg` on the kernel config
value. This cfg is always set in the kernel and never set in the
user-space version.
Since the quote crate requires the proc_macro2 crate, imports also need
to be adjusted and `.into()` calls have to be inserted.

Rename relative paths inside of the crate to still refer to the same
items, also rename paths inside of the kernel crate and adjust the build
system to build the crate.
[ Remove the `expect` (and thus the `lint_reasons` feature) since
the tree now uses `quote!` from `rust/macros/export.rs`. Remove the
`TokenStream` import removal, since it is now used as well.
In addition, temporarily (i.e. just for this commit) use an `--extern
force:alloc` to prevent an unknown `new_uninit` error in the `rustdoc`
target. For context, please see a similar case in:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240422090644.525520-1-ojeda@kernel.org/

In preparation of splitting off the pin-init crate from the kernel
crate, move all pin-init API code (including proc-macros) into
`rust/pin-init`.
Moved modules have their import path adjusted via the `#[path = "..."]`
attribute. This allows the files to still be imported in the kernel
crate even though the files are in different directories.
Code that is moved out of files (but the file itself stays where it is)
is imported via the `include!` macro. This also allows the code to be
moved while still being part of the kernel crate.
Note that this commit moves the generics parsing code out of the GPL-2.0
file `rust/macros/helpers.rs` into the Apache-2.0 OR MIT file
`rust/pin_init/internal/src/helpers.rs`. I am the sole author of that
code and it already is available with that license at [1].
The same is true for the entry-points of the proc-macros `pin_data`,
`pinned_drop` and `derive_zeroable` in `rust/macros/lib.rs` that are
moved to `rust/pin_data/internal/src/lib.rs`. Although there are some
smaller patches that fix the doctests.
