Linus Torvalds f4e0ff7e45 Merge tag 'rust-6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ojeda/linux
Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
 "Toolchain and infrastructure:

   - Derive 'Zeroable' for all structs and unions generated by 'bindgen'
     where possible and corresponding cleanups. To do so, add the
     'pin-init' crate as a dependency to 'bindings' and 'uapi'.

     It also includes its first use in the 'cpufreq' module, with more
     to come in the next cycle.

   - Add warning to the 'rustdoc' target to detect broken 'srctree/'
     links and fix existing cases.

   - Remove support for unused (since v6.16) host '#[test]'s,
     simplifying the 'rusttest' target. Tests should generally run
     within KUnit.

  'kernel' crate:

   - Add 'ptr' module with a new 'Alignment' type, which is always a
     power of two and is used to validate that a given value is a valid
     alignment and to perform masking and alignment operations:

         // Checked at build time.
         assert_eq!(Alignment:🆕:<16>().as_usize(), 16);

         // Checked at runtime.
         assert_eq!(Alignment::new_checked(15), None);

         assert_eq!(Alignment::of::<u8>().log2(), 0);

         assert_eq!(0x25u8.align_down(Alignment:🆕:<0x10>()), 0x20);
         assert_eq!(0x5u8.align_up(Alignment:🆕:<0x10>()), Some(0x10));
         assert_eq!(u8::MAX.align_up(Alignment:🆕:<0x10>()), None);

     It also includes its first use in Nova.

   - Add 'core::mem::{align,size}_of{,_val}' to the prelude, matching
     Rust 1.80.0.

   - Keep going with the steps on our migration to the standard library
     'core::ffi::CStr' type (use 'kernel::{fmt, prelude::fmt!}' and use
     upstream method names).

   - 'error' module: improve 'Error::from_errno' and 'to_result'
     documentation, including examples/tests.

   - 'sync' module: extend 'aref' submodule documentation now that it
     exists, and more updates to complete the ongoing move of 'ARef' and
     'AlwaysRefCounted' to 'sync::aref'.

   - 'list' module: add an example/test for 'ListLinksSelfPtr' usage.

   - 'alloc' module:

      - Implement 'Box::pin_slice()', which constructs a pinned slice of
        elements.

      - Provide information about the minimum alignment guarantees of
        'Kmalloc', 'Vmalloc' and 'KVmalloc'.

      - Take minimum alignment guarantees of allocators for
        'ForeignOwnable' into account.

      - Remove the 'allocator_test' (including 'Cmalloc').

      - Add doctest for 'Vec::as_slice()'.

      - Constify various methods.

   - 'time' module:

      - Add methods on 'HrTimer' that can only be called with exclusive
        access to an unarmed timer, or from timer callback context.

      - Add arithmetic operations to 'Instant' and 'Delta'.

      - Add a few convenience and access methods to 'HrTimer' and
        'Instant'.

  'macros' crate:

   - Reduce collections in 'quote!' macro.

  And a few other cleanups and improvements"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
