Subject: [PATCH v2 20/33] rust: kbuild: update `bindgen --rust-target` version and replace comment
Date: Mon,  6 Apr 2026 01:52:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260405235309.418950-21-ojeda@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260405235309.418950-1-ojeda@kernel.org>

As the comment in the `Makefile` explains, previously, we needed to
limit ourselves to the list of Rust versions known by `bindgen` for its
`--rust-target` option [1].

In other words, we needed to consult the versions known by the minimum
version of `bindgen` that we supported.

Now that we bumped the minimum version of `bindgen`, that limitation
does not apply anymore since `bindgen` 0.71.0 [2].

Thus replace the comment and simply write our minimum supported Rust
version there, which is much simpler.

See commit 7a5f93ea5862 ("rust: kbuild: set `bindgen`'s Rust target
version") for more details.

-# Each `bindgen` release may upgrade the list of Rust target versions. By

-# Therefore, the Rust target for `bindgen` can be only as high as the minimum
-# Rust version the kernel supports and only as high as the greatest stable Rust
-# target supported by the minimum `bindgen` version the kernel supports (that
-# is, if we do not test the actual `rustc`/`bindgen` versions running).

-# Starting with `bindgen` 0.71.0, we will be able to set any future Rust version
-# instead, i.e. we will be able to set here our minimum supported Rust version.
+# `--rust-target` points to our minimum supported Rust version.
