[PATCH 0/3] Rust enablement for AArch64

[Jamie Cunliffe]

The first patch is from Miguel's tree to enable Rust support for
AArch64. This has been tested with the Rust samples, and the generated
code has also been manually inspected.

The second patch enables the PAC ret and BTI options in the Rust build
flags to match the options that are used when building C.

The third patch disables the neon and fp target features to avoid fp &
simd registers. The use of fp-armv8 will cause a warning from rustc
about an unknown feature that is specified. The target feature is
still passed through to LLVM, this behaviour is documented as part of
the warning. This will be fixed in a future version of the rustc
toolchain. This pull request should address it,
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/107294

[PATCH 1/3] arm64: rust: Enable Rust support for AArch64

[Jamie Cunliffe]

From: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>

This commit provides the build flags for Rust for AArch64. The core Rust
support already in the kernel does the rest.

The Rust samples have been tested with this commit.

Why do we need to specify this stuff here? LLVM already knows about AArch64
and can compute the data-layout string in computeDataLayout(). Can we have
the tools figure this out for us instead, please?

I agree -- the reason we have this for the moment is to provide full
control of the target spec, in particular for cases where `rustc` may
not provide enough flags to customize exiting builtin target specs
and/or may emit warnings for unknown target features etc.

If it is already enough for arm64 to use e.g. the
`aarch64-unknown-none` target spec plus flags on top, then we should
go for that, because that is the end goal: these target spec files are
unstable in the Rust compiler (and not intended to become stable).

For context, upstream Rust so far has been willing to merge support
for flags and target features that we needed, which is great.

Cheers,
Miguel

Please confirm that this is the case, but I really think we should be
aiming for that rather than starting off my specifying this stuff manually.

One thing I ran into while playing around is that 128-bit types aren't
supported with ffi unless '-A improper-ctypes' is passed. Given that we
use '__uint128_t' to represent the fpsimd state, I think this is probably
something which will crop up as an issue.

This lint exists because u/i128 are indeed not compatible with their C counterpart on many targets including x86_64 with the SysV ABI. As it turns out however, it is compatible on AArch64. A little under a year ago 128bit int type aliases were added to the libc crate on AArch64 (except on Windows) which are equal to u/i128 [1]. In addition it has const assertions for the correct size and alignment. As such if rustc every regresses on non-Windows AArch64, this will show up in a crater run and almost definitively be fixed. Because of this I don't think there will be any problem with assuming __uint128_t and u128 are compatible when compiling for AArch64.

Let's see what Jamie thinks and if he can give it a try.

Thanks for giving it a go. With what Björn has explained (I see the PR
he linked has `user_fpsimd_struct` as a test case, which is nice), I
guess it should be fine. We could also add some tests on our side to
make sure (which we probably want to do anyway for other reasons).

Added to https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/355.

The json that we generate looks to be almost equivalent (that's why patch 3
exists, to answer your question on that patch). The only difference is the
`aarch64-unknown-none` rustc target sets the LLVM target to also be
`aarch64-unknown-none`, whereas the current target.json uses the
`aarch64-linux-gnu` LLVM target as does Makefile.clang for C code. As you have
been talking about the unknown-none target throughout this thread, I just wanted
to double check that's your intention?

Happy to switch over to using the rustc definition though. I just did it this
way to keep it consistent with the other architectures and not add any more
complexity into the build. On a quick test it does seem to be OK, but I'll
prepare a patch and do some proper testing that it's actually fine to use the
rustc definition though.

I'm curious, do you have a timeline for submitting the next revision of 
this patch? We're trying to aim to upstream the drm/asahi driver for 6.6 
or so, but that would depend on CONFIG_ARM64, so it would be lovely if 
we could get this in for 6.5 (and it looks like there shouldn't be too 
many issues left) ^^

[PATCH 2/3] arm64: rust: Enable PAC support for Rust.

Enable the PAC ret and BTI options in the Rust build flags to match
the options that are used when building C.

[PATCH 3/3] arm64: rust: Disable neon and fp target features.

[Jamie Cunliffe]

Disable the neon and fp target features to avoid fp & simd
registers. The use of fp-armv8 will cause a warning from rustc about
an unknown feature that is specified. The target feature is still
passed through to LLVM, this behaviour is documented as part of the
warning. This will be fixed in a future version of the rustc
toolchain.

This would be https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/96472, right?
(if I misunderstood and it is something else, please let me know!)

The cover letter had the link, which could be nice to have here in a
`Link: ` tag maybe.

Why do we advertise these features as present in
scripts/generate_rust_target.rs?

Thanks a lot for this -- it is great to hear the prototype arm64
support we had at least made some basic sense :)

I imagine eventually we will need more changes on the target like BE
vs. LE, shadow call stack, extensions, etc., right?

Great, thanks a lot. I have linked this one at
https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/355 (if you have
others, please let me know, it would be ideal to track them there)

On upstreaming: it would be great if ARM64 maintainers can take a look
(and please feel free to take it through your tree as well!).

Cheers,
Miguel

Just as a note, we ran into an issue with this patchset. There is a
missing `BINDGEN_TARGET_arm64` in rust/Makefile (around line 255).
Without that, bindgen fails.

 # Derived from `scripts/Makefile.clang`.
 BINDGEN_TARGET_x86     := x86_64-linux-gnu
+BINDGEN_TARGET_arm64   := aarch64-linux-gnu
 BINDGEN_TARGET         := $(BINDGEN_TARGET_$(SRCARCH))

(No need to credit us for that ^^)

Thanks!

For GCC builds, indeed, it is needed. Same applies to the RISC-V patch
series. Thanks!
