This is the second part of "rust: prepare for splitting crates" with
Zhao's suggestions addressed and with more precise handling of pinning
for Timers.
The series introduce a third generic type in qemu_api::cell, Opaque<T>.
This type is similar to a same-named type in Linux; it is basically a
"disable all undefined behavior" switch for the Rust compiler and it
helps maintaining safety at the Rust/C boundary, complementing the
existing BqlCell and BqlRefCell types.
Apart from making things more formally correct, this makes it possible
to implement methods on a struct that is distinct from the one produced
by bindgen. This has a couple of advantages:
- you do not have to disable the Copy trait on structs where you want
to add a Drop trait. This was already a problem for the Timer struct.
- whether Send and Sync are implemented is entirely a decision of the
place that implements the wrapper. Previously, a struct with no
pointers for example would have been always both Send and Sync,
whereas now that can be adjusted depending on the actual
thread-safety of the Rust methods.
- more pertinent to the "multiple crates" plan that prompted posting
of v1, you do not have to put the methods in the same crate as the
bindgen-generated bindings.inc.rs.
It also makes Debug output a bit less unwieldy, and in the future one
might want to add specialized implementations of Display and Debug that
are both useful and readable.
Paolo
Supersedes: <20250221170342.63591-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>
v1->v2:
From Zhao's review:
- fix Opaque::zeroed()
- improve comments for as_mut_ptr() fand as_void_ptr()
- remove unnecessary ".0" accesses, or highlight why they're needed
- add patch to access SysBusDevice MMIO addresses safely
Other changes:
- improve safety comments for constructors of Opaque
- remove implementation of Default for Opaque<T: Default>,
leaving Opaque::new() in but only as an unsafe function
- change Timer patch to construct timers as Pin<Box<Self>>,
following the documentation of `Opaque<>`
- add "rust: vmstate: add std::pin::Pin as transparent wrapper"
Paolo Bonzini (12):
rust: cell: add wrapper for FFI types
rust: qemu_api_macros: add Wrapper derive macro
rust: vmstate: add std::pin::Pin as transparent wrapper
rust: timer: wrap QEMUTimer with Opaque<> and express pinning
requirements
rust: irq: wrap IRQState with Opaque<>
rust: qom: wrap Object with Opaque<>
rust: qdev: wrap Clock and DeviceState with Opaque<>
rust: hpet: do not access fields of SysBusDevice

Inspired by the same-named type in Linux. This type provides the compiler
with a correct view of what goes on with FFI types. In addition, it
separates the glue code from the bindgen-generated code, allowing
traits such as Send, Sync or Zeroable to be specified independently
for C and Rust structs.

+//! The cell types from the previous section are useful at the boundaries

+//!
+//! C functions often violate Rust's fundamental assumptions about memory
+//! safety by modifying memory even if it is shared. Furthermore, C structs
+//! often start their life uninitialized and may be populated lazily.
+//!
+//! For this reason, this module provides the [`Opaque<T>`] type to opt out
+//! of Rust's usual guarantees about the wrapped type. Access to the wrapped
+//! value is always through raw pointers, obtained via methods like
+//! [`as_mut_ptr()`](Opaque::as_mut_ptr) and [`as_ptr()`](Opaque::as_ptr). These
+//! pointers can then be passed to C functions or dereferenced; both actions
+//! require `unsafe` blocks, making it clear where safety guarantees must be
+//! manually verified. For example
+//!
+//! ```ignore
+//! unsafe {
+//! let state = Opaque::<MyStruct>::uninit();
+//! qemu_struct_init(state.as_mut_ptr());
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! [`Opaque<T>`] will usually be wrapped one level further, so that
+//! bridge methods can be added to the wrapper:
+//!
+//! ```ignore
+//! pub struct MyStruct(Opaque<bindings::MyStruct>);
+//!
+//! impl MyStruct {
+//! fn new() -> Pin<Box<MyStruct>> {
+//! let result = Box::pin(unsafe { Opaque::uninit() });
+//! unsafe { qemu_struct_init(result.as_mut_ptr()) };
+//! result
+//! }
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! This pattern of wrapping bindgen-generated types in [`Opaque<T>`] provides
+//! several advantages:
+//!
+//! * The choice of traits to be implemented is not limited by the
+//! bindgen-generated code. For example, [`Drop`] can be added without
+//! disabling [`Copy`] on the underlying bindgen type
+//!
+//! * [`Send`] and [`Sync`] implementations can be controlled by the wrapper
+//! type rather than being automatically derived from the C struct's layout
+//!
+//! * Methods can be implemented in a separate crate from the bindgen-generated
+//! bindings
+//!
+//! * [`Debug`](std::fmt::Debug) and [`Display`](std::fmt::Display)
+//! implementations can be customized to be more readable than the raw C
+//! struct representation
+//!
+//! The [`Opaque<T>`] type does not include BQL validation; it is possible to
+//! assert in the code that the right lock is taken, to use it together
+//! with a custom lock guard type, or to let C code take the lock, as
+//! appropriate. It is also possible to use it with non-thread-safe
+//! types, since by default (unlike [`BqlCell`] and [`BqlRefCell`]
+//! it is neither `Sync` nor `Send`.
+//!
+//! While [`Opaque<T>`] is necessary for C interop, it should be used sparingly
+//! and only at FFI boundaries. For QEMU-specific types that need interior
+//! mutability, prefer [`BqlCell`] or [`BqlRefCell`].

Add a derive macro that makes it easy to peel off all the layers of
specialness (UnsafeCell, MaybeUninit, etc.) and just get a pointer
to the wrapped type; and likewise add them back starting from a
*mut.

Timers must be pinned in memory, because modify() stores a pointer to them
in the TimerList. To ensure this is the case, replace the separate new()
and init_full() with a single function that returns a pinned box. Because
the only way to obtain a Timer is through Timer::new_full(), modify()
knows that the timer it got is also pinned. In the future the pinning
requirement will be expressed through the pin_init crate instead.
Note that Timer is a bit different from other users of Opaque, in that
it is created in Rust code rather than C code. This is why it has to
use the unsafe Opaque::new() function.

Fields of SysBusDevice must only be accessed with the BQL taken. Add
a wrapper that verifies that.

Send and Sync are now implemented on the opaque wrappers. Remove them
from the bindings module, unless the structs are pure data containers

I'm removing this Option<> wrapper in migration series. This is because
Option<> can't be treated as pointer as you mentioned in [*].
So for this reason, does this mean that VMStateField cannot accept
Option<>? I realize that all the current VMStateFlags don't seem
compatible with Option<> unless a new flag is introduced.

Ah, the lifetime here isn't effectively bound... However, I also

I am not sure if the change I have in that commit actually does
anything, unfortunately... :( which is why I wanted to use init_full
instead of new_full.
It's easiest to marked new_full() unsafe for now.

Ok, so let's get rid of the option. I didn't really like it anyway...
If the Timer is embedded in the HPETTimer, there needs to be some
"unsafe" in order to make sure that the pinning is observed, and also
because an uninitialized Timer is bad and can cause a NULL pointer
dereference in modify()... i.e. Timer shouldn't have implemented
Default!
However, the lifetime checks in init_full() are preserved, so overall
this is better---at least for now. Linux also had unsafe initialization
for quite some time, so I'm okay with it.
The replacements for this patch are below.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] rust: hpet: embed Timer without the Option and Box
indirection
This simplifies things for migration, since Option<Box<QEMUTimer>> does not
implement VMState.
This also shows a soundness issue because Timer::new() will leave a NULL
timer list pointer, which can then be dereferenced by Timer::modify(). It
will be fixed shortly.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] rust: timer: wrap QEMUTimer with Opaque<> and express
pinning requirements
Timers must be pinned in memory, because modify() stores a pointer to them
in the TimerList. To express this requirement, change init_full() to take
a pinned reference. Because the only way to obtain a Timer is through
Timer::new(), which is unsafe, modify() can assume that the timer it got
was later initialized; and because the initialization takes a Pin<&mut
Timer> modify() can assume that the timer is pinned. In the future the
pinning requirement will be expressed through the pin_init crate instead.
Note that Timer is a bit different from other users of Opaque, in that
it is created in Rust code rather than C code. This is why it has to
use the unsafe constructors provided by Opaque; and in fact Timer::new()
is also unsafe, because it leaves it to the caller to invoke init_full()
before modify(). Without a call to init_full(), modify() will cause a
NULL pointer dereference.
An alternative could be to combine new() + init_full() by returning a
pinned box; however, using a reference makes it easier to express
the requirement that the opaque outlives the timer.

It can compile and seems lifetime doesn't work... I think if we want the
lifetime check, it would be necessary to store &opaque in Rust's Timer
wrapper and specify a lifetime for Timer.
Maybe we need something like (similar to MemoryRegionOps):
pub struct Timer<'timer, T> {
Opaque<bindings::QEMUTimer>,
PhantomData<&'timer T>,
}
> It's easiest to marked new_full() unsafe for now.
Yes, I agree.

We should use Opaque::uninit()? Because MaybeUninit::<bindings::QEMUTimer>::zeroed()
marks the timer as initialized, which disables MaybeUninit's ability to check for
initialization. e.g.,
// No compiling error or runtime panic
let t: MaybeUninit<bindings::QEMUTimer> = MaybeUninit::zeroed();
let _t = unsafe { t.assume_init() };
Further more, I spent some time trying to figure out if MaybeUninit in
Opaque<> could help identify UB caused by uninitialized Timer, but I found
it doesn't work. :-(
There're 2 cases:
// No compiling error or runtime panic
let mut v: UnsafeCell<MaybeUninit<bindings::QEMUTimer>> = UnsafeCell::new(MaybeUninit::uninit());
let _v = unsafe { v.get_mut().assume_init() };
// Runtime panic: Illegal instruction
let t: MaybeUninit<bindings::QEMUTimer> = MaybeUninit::uninit();
let _t = unsafe { t.assume_init() };
I understand that the outer UnsafeCell wrapper makes MaybeUninit's
checks not work.
But when I adjust MaybeUninit as the outer wrapper, the UB check can
work:
// Runtime panic: Illegal instruction
let v: MaybeUninit<UnsafeCell<bindings::QEMUTimer>> = MaybeUninit::uninit();
let _v = unsafe { v.assume_init() };
And there's another example:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cell/struct.UnsafeCell.html#method.raw_get
Compared with linux's Opaque, it also puts MaybeUninit on the outermost
layer.
Emm, I guess now we have UnsafeCell<MaybeUninit<>> because interior
mutability is expected... but this layout breaks MaybeUninit's functionality.

The SAFETY should also be ensured by MaybeUninit, I think. But I haven't
verified if MaybeUninit<UnsafeCell<>> can work on FFI case...

Would MemoryRegionOps also need to be wrapped into Opaque<>?
Currently I understand it's not necessary, because init_io() requires
MemoryRegionOps reference to be static.
pub fn init_io<T: IsA<Object>>(
&mut self,
owner: *mut T,
ops: &'static MemoryRegionOps<T>,
name: &'static str,
size: u64,
)
But I wonder whether it is the most ideal implementation... or to remove
the static limitation of MemoryRegionOps and consider pin+Opaque instead?
Another thought is for init_io, it's also necessary to ensure MemoryRegion
is pinned, because callbacks also need to access the pointer of MemoryRegion,
just like you did for timer, e.g.,
pub fn init_io<T: IsA<Object>>(
- &mut self,
+ self: Pin<&mut Self>,
owner: *mut T,
ops: &'static MemoryRegionOps<T>,
name: &'static str,
size: u64,
) {
(Just disscussion without clarifying the difficulty), if you agree with
this, then I think this would be a main pattern for callback, i.e.,
accepting a pin parameter. Perhaps an ideal option would be to be able
to add the pin limit to the FnCall.
Thanks,
Zhao

While neither is good, a zeroed area of memory behaves better than an
uninitialized one... In particular, Drop calls timer_del() which works
fine with a zeroed QEMUTimer. With Opaque::uninit() you could have a
crash just with
drop(Timer::new());

Thanks for the example from the documentation! Indeed it should be
possible to do
/// Returns a raw mutable pointer to the opaque data.
pub const fn as_mut_ptr(&self) -> *mut T {
UnsafeCell::raw_get(self.value.as_ptr())
}
/// Returns a raw pointer to the opaque data that can be passed to a
/// C function as `void *`.
pub const fn as_void_ptr(&self) -> *mut std::ffi::c_void {
self.as_mut_ptr().cast()
}
pub const fn raw_get(slot: *const Self) -> *mut T {
// SAFETY: even if uninitialized, slot points to a MaybeUninit
let slot = slot.cast::<MaybeUninit<UnsafeCell<T>>>;
UnsafeCell::raw_get(slot.as_ptr())
}
if Opaque<> uses a MaybeUninit<UnsafeCell<T>>. I'm a bit worried of
deviating from what Linux does though...

Thanks for pointing this! I realized I referred the old code, since this
commit, linux puts the UnsafeCell to the outer layer [2]
[2]: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/35cad617df2eeef8440a38e82bb2d81ae32ca50d
It seems that, at least from the Linux view, here the role of MaybeUninit
(as the cases I tested) is not a main concern, and Rust convention is
superior...

Thank you, this convertion to UnsafeCell<MaybeUninit<T>> in Linux
history convinces me... I also agree that we should follow it for now :-).
