[PATCH v4 00/28] Generic `Allocator` support for Rust

[PATCH v4 00/28] Generic `Allocator` support for Rust

[Danilo Krummrich]

Hi,

This patch series adds generic kernel allocator support for Rust, which so far
is limited to `kmalloc` allocations.

In order to abstain from (re-)adding unstable Rust features to the kernel, this
patch series does not extend the `Allocator` trait from Rust's `alloc` crate,
nor does it extend the `BoxExt` and `VecExt` extensions.

Instead, this series introduces a kernel specific `Allocator` trait, which is
implemented by the `Kmalloc`, `Vmalloc` and `KVmalloc` allocators, also
implemented in the context of this series.

As a consequence we need our own kernel `Box<T, A>` and `Vec<T, A>` types.
Additionally, this series adds the following type aliases:

```
pub type KBox<T> = Box<T, Kmalloc>;
pub type VBox<T> = Box<T, Vmalloc>;
pub type KVBox<T> = Box<T, KVmalloc>;


pub type KVec<T> = Vec<T, Kmalloc>;
pub type VVec<T> = Vec<T, Vmalloc>;
pub type KVVec<T> = Vec<T, KVmalloc>;
```

With that, we can start using the kernel `Box` and `Vec` types throughout the
tree and remove the now obolete extensions `BoxExt` and `VecExt`.

For a final cleanup, this series removes the last minor dependencies to Rust's
`alloc` crate and removes it from the entire kernel build.

The series ensures not to break the `rusttest` make target by implementing the
`allocator_test` module providing a stub implementation for all kernel
`Allocator`s.

This patch series passes all KUnit tests, including the ones added by this
series. Additionally, the tests were run with `kmemleak` and `KASAN` enabled,
without any issues.

This series is based on [1], which hit -mm/mm-unstable, and is also available
in [2].

[2] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dakr/linux.git/log/?h=rust/mm

Changes in v4:
 - (safety) comment fixes suggested by Alice and Boqun
 - remove `Box::from_raw_alloc` and `Box::into_raw_alloc`, we don't need them
 - in `Box::drop` call `size_of_val` before `drop_in_place`
 - implement ForeignOwnable for Pin<Box<T>> as suggested by Alice
 - in `Vec::extend_with`, iterate over `n` instead of `spare.len()`
 - for `Vmalloc` and `KVmalloc` fail allocation for alignments larger than
   PAGE_SIZE for now (will add support for larger alignments in a separate
   series)
 - implement `Cmalloc` in `allocator_test` and type alias all kernel allocator
   types to it, such that we can use the kernel's `Box` and `Vec` types in
   userspace tests (rusttest)
   - this makes patch "rust: str: test: replace `alloc::format`" rather trivial

Changes in v3:
 - Box:
   - minor documentation fixes
   - removed unnecessary imports in doc tests
   - dropeed `self` argument from some remaining `Box` methods 
   - implement `InPlaceInit` for Box<T, A> rather than specifically for `KBox<T>`
 - Vec:
   - minor documentation fixes
   - removed useless `Vec::allocator` method
   - in `Vec::extend_with` use `Vec::spare_capacity_mut` instead of raw pointer operations
   - added a few missing safety comments
   - pass GFP flags to `Vec::collect`
 - fixed a rustdoc warning in alloc.rs
 - fixed the allocator_test module to implement the `Allocator` trait correctly
 - rebased to rust-next

Changes in v2:
  - preserve `impl GlobalAlloc for Kmalloc` and remove it at the end (Benno)
  - remove `&self` parameter from all `Allocator` functions (Benno)
  - various documentation fixes for `Allocator` (Benno)
  - use `NonNull<u8>` for `Allocator::free` and `Option<NonNull<u8>>` for
    `Allocator::realloc` (Benno)
  - fix leak of `IntoIter` in `Vec::collect` (Boqun)
  - always realloc (try to shrink) in `Vec::collect`, it's up the the
    `Allocator` to provide a heuristic whether it makes sense to actually shrink
  - rename `KBox<T, A>` -> `Box<T, A>` and `KVec<T, A>` -> `Vec<T, A>` and
    provide type aliases `KBox<T>`, `VBox<T>`, `KVBox<T>`, etc.
    - This allows for much cleaner code and, in combination with removing
      `&self` parameters from `Allocator`s, gets us rid of the need for
      `Box::new` and `Box::new_alloc` and all other "_alloc" postfixed
      functions.
    - Before: `KBox::new_alloc(foo, Vmalloc)?`
    - After:  `VBox::new(foo)?`, which resolves to
              `Box::<Foo,  Vmalloc>::new(foo)?;

[PATCH v4 01/28] rust: alloc: add `Allocator` trait

[Danilo Krummrich]

Add a kernel specific `Allocator` trait, that in contrast to the one in
Rust's core library doesn't require unstable features and supports GFP
flags.

Subsequent patches add the following trait implementors: `Kmalloc`,
`Vmalloc` and `KVmalloc`.

[PATCH v4 02/28] rust: alloc: separate `aligned_size` from `krealloc_aligned`

[Danilo Krummrich]

Separate `aligned_size` from `krealloc_aligned`.

Subsequent patches implement `Allocator` derivates, such as `Kmalloc`,
that require `aligned_size` and replace the original `krealloc_aligned`.

[PATCH v4 04/28] rust: alloc: implement `Allocator` for `Kmalloc`

[Danilo Krummrich]

Implement `Allocator` for `Kmalloc`, the kernel's default allocator,
typically used for objects smaller than page size.

All memory allocations made with `Kmalloc` end up in `krealloc()`.

It serves as allocator for the subsequently introduced types `KBox` and
`KVec`.

[PATCH v4 05/28] rust: alloc: add module `allocator_test`

[Danilo Krummrich]

`Allocator`s, such as `Kmalloc`, will be used by e.g. `Box` and `Vec` in
subsequent patches, and hence this dependency propagates throughout the
whole kernel.

Add the `allocator_test` module that provides an empty implementation
for all `Allocator`s in the kernel, such that we don't break the
`rusttest` make target in subsequent patches.

[PATCH v4 06/28] rust: alloc: implement `Vmalloc` allocator

[Danilo Krummrich]

Implement `Allocator` for `Vmalloc`, the kernel's virtually contiguous
allocator, typically used for larger objects, (much) larger than page
size.

All memory allocations made with `Vmalloc` end up in `vrealloc()`.

[PATCH v4 08/28] rust: types: implement `Unique<T>`

[Danilo Krummrich]

Implement the `Unique` type as a prerequisite for `Box` and `Vec`
introduced in subsequent patches.

`Unique` serves as wrapper around a `NonNull`, but indicates that the
possessor of this wrapper owns the referent.

This type already exists in Rust's core library, but, unfortunately, is
exposed as unstable API and hence shouldn't be used in the kernel.

This implementation of `Unique` is almost identical, but mostly stripped
down to the functionality we need for `Box` and `Vec`. Additionally, all
unstable features are removed and / or replaced by stable ones.

[PATCH v4 09/28] rust: alloc: implement kernel `Box`

[Danilo Krummrich]

`Box` provides the simplest way to allocate memory for a generic type
with one of the kernel's allocators, e.g. `Kmalloc`, `Vmalloc` or
`KVmalloc`.

In contrast to Rust's `Box` type, the kernel `Box` type considers the
kernel's GFP flags for all appropriate functions, always reports
allocation failures through `Result<_, AllocError>` and remains
independent from unstable features.

[Danilo Krummrich]

Now that we removed `BoxExt` and the corresponding includes in
types.rs, add the new kernel `Box` type instead.

[PATCH v4 15/28] rust: alloc: implement kernel `Vec` type

[Danilo Krummrich]

`Vec` provides a contiguous growable array type (such as `Vec`) with
contents allocated with the kernel's allocators (e.g. `Kmalloc`,
`Vmalloc` or `KVmalloc`).

In contrast to Rust's `Vec` type, the kernel `Vec` type considers the
kernel's GFP flags for all appropriate functions, always reports
allocation failures through `Result<_, AllocError>` and remains
independent from unstable features.

[PATCH v4 16/28] rust: alloc: implement `IntoIterator` for `Vec`

[Danilo Krummrich]

Implement `IntoIterator` for `Vec`, `Vec`'s `IntoIter` type, as well as
`Iterator` for `IntoIter`.

`Vec::into_iter` disassembles the `Vec` into its raw parts; additionally,
`IntoIter` keeps track of a separate pointer, which is incremented
correspondingsly as the iterator advances, while the length, or the count
of elements, is decremented.

This also means that `IntoIter` takes the ownership of the backing
buffer and is responsible to drop the remaining elements and free the
backing buffer, if it's dropped.

[PATCH v4 17/28] rust: alloc: implement `collect` for `IntoIter`

[Danilo Krummrich]

Currently, we can't implement `FromIterator`. There are a couple of
issues with this trait in the kernel, namely:

  - Rust's specialization feature is unstable. This prevents us to
    optimze for the special case where `I::IntoIter` equals `Vec`'s
    `IntoIter` type.
  - We also can't use `I::IntoIter`'s type ID either to work around this,
    since `FromIterator` doesn't require this type to be `'static`.
  - `FromIterator::from_iter` does return `Self` instead of
    `Result<Self, AllocError>`, hence we can't properly handle allocation
    failures.
  - Neither `Iterator::collect` nor `FromIterator::from_iter` can handle
    additional allocation flags.

Instead, provide `IntoIter::collect`, such that we can at least convert
`IntoIter` into a `Vec` again.

[PATCH v4 25/28] rust: alloc: implement `Cmalloc` in module allocator_test

[Danilo Krummrich]

So far the kernel's `Box` and `Vec` types can't be used by userspace
test cases, since all users of those types (e.g. `CString`) use kernel
allocators for instantiation.

In order to allow userspace test cases to make use of such types as
well, implement the `Cmalloc` allocator within the allocator_test module
and type alias all kernel allocators to `Cmalloc`. The `Cmalloc`
allocator uses libc's realloc() function as allocator backend.

Signed-off-by: Danilo Krummrich <dakr@kernel.org>

I know, having an `old_size` parameter would indeed help implementing `Cmalloc`.

However, I really don't want test infrastructure to influence the design of
kernel internal APIs.

Besides that, adding the `old_size` parameter would have the consequence that
we'd either need to honor it for kernel allocators too (which adds another
source of potential failure) or ignore it for all kernel allocators (which
potentially tricks people into taking wrong assumptions on how the API works).

[PATCH v4 26/28] rust: str: test: replace `alloc::format`

[Danilo Krummrich]

The current implementation of tests in str.rs use `format!` to format
strings for comparison, which, internally, creates a new `String`.

In order to prepare for getting rid of Rust's alloc crate, we have to
cut this dependency. Instead, implement `format!` for `CString`.

Note that for userspace tests, `Kmalloc`, which is backing `CString`'s
memory, is just a type alias to `Cmalloc`.

It can't actually be NULL since it's a NonNull. I would reword to:

// SAFETY: The caller guarantees that `ptr` points at a valid
allocation created by this allocator. We are passing a Layout with the
smallest possible alignment, so it is smaller than or equal to the
alignment previously used with this allocation.

Anyway, otherwise this LGTM.

This will prevent us from implementing arena-type allocators [^1]. Do we
want/need those?
I have heard that some people use them in embedded systems, but I can't 
say for sure. But this is a rather big design decision, so we should
discuss it now.

[^1]: For those who don't know what I mean by that here is a quick
sketch (without handling flags and optimizations):

    pub struct ArenaAlloc<const SIZE: usize> {
        memory: Opaque<[u8; SIZE]>,
        head: Cell<usize>,
    }

    impl<const SIZE: usize> ArenaAlloc<SIZE> {
        pub fn new() -> Self {
            Self {
                memory: Opaque::uninit(),
                head: 0,
            }
        }
    }

    impl<const SIZE: usize> Allocator for ArenaAlloc<SIZE> {
        fn alloc(&self, layout: Layout, _flags: Flags) -> Result<NonNull<u8>, AllocError> {
            let head = self.head.get();
            if head + layout.size() >= SIZE {
                return Err(AllocError);
            }
            let ptr = self.memory.get();
            let ptr = ptr.cast::<u8>();
            let ptr = unsafe { ptr.add(head) };
            self.head.set(head + layout.size());
            unsafe { NonNull::new_unchecked(ptr) }
        }

        unsafe fn realloc(
            &self,
            ptr: Option<NonNull<u8>>,
            old_layout: Layout, // Note that we also need `old_layout`!
            layout: Layout,
            flags: Flags
        ) -> Result<NonNull<u8>, AllocError> {
            let new = self.alloc(layout, flags)?;
            let Some(ptr) = ptr else { return Ok(new); };
            unsafe { core::ptr::copy_nonoverlapping(ptr.as_ptr(), new.as_ptr(), old_layout.size()) };
            self.free(ptr);
            Ok(new)
        }

        fn free(&self, ptr: NonNull<u8>) { /* noop */ }
    }

Ah I see, so since `#[derive(SmartPointer)]` needs `Box` to only consist
of one non ZST field... I skimmed the RFC discussion and it seems like a
problem that *might* be solved in the future, but probably not in the
(very) near future. I guess this is just a bullet that we have to bite.
We can always have an `ArenaBox` that can deal with that (although
without `DispatchFromDyn`).
We should revisit this when `#[derive(SmartPointer)]` becomes advanced
enough.

This is the wrong way around, `ptr: Option<NonNull<u8>>`, so
`Some(ptr): Option<Option<NonNull<u8>>>`. Instead I would write
"If `ptr = Some(p)`, then `p` must point to...".

Additionally, you need "The memory allocation at `ptr` must never again
be read from or written to.".

Can you move the safe operation outside of the `unsafe` block?

If we call `realloc(Some(ptr), <layout with size = 0>, ...)`, then this
leaks the pointer returned by the call to `self.0` above. I don't know
what the return value of the different functions are that can appear in
`self.0`, do they return NULL?

What about the following sequence:

    let ptr = realloc(None, <layout with size = 0>, ...);
    let ptr = realloc(Some(ptr), <layout with size = 0>, ...);

Then the above call to `self.0` is done with a dangling pointer, can the
functions that appear in `self.0` handle that?

What about the other requirements? (they should be satisfied, since they
are also requirements for calling this function)

If you make `ReallocFunc::krealloc()` into a constant
`ReallocFunc::KREALLOC`, then we could avoid the let binding above.

This is confusing, since you are talking about both our new `Allocator`
trait, allocators and the `alloc` crate `Allocator`.

Does `build_error!()` also work? If yes, then I would prefer that.

One thing that I should also have mentioned for `Kmalloc`, do we want
these types to also have values? I don't think that we need them to be,
so we could declare them as `pub enum Vmalloc {}`.

This should be moved down a line.

I am a bit confused, for `Kmalloc`, you manually returned
`NonNull::dangling` when allocating a zero-sized allocation, but here
you don't?

Actually, this must either be `size_of_val(&**self)` or `size_of_val::<T>(self).

`size_of_val(&*self)` should indeed resolve to `&Box<T, A>`, right?

Oh yeah that is true, good catch! Here is a playground example [1].

...doing it inline.

I'm fine either way, but unless you really want me to change it, I'd
rather keep it as it is.
