[PATCH V8 0/4] Rust support for powerpc

[PATCH V8 0/4] Rust support for powerpc

[Mukesh Kumar Chaurasiya (IBM)]

Enable experimental rust support for ppc64le and ppc32be. The patch for
ppc32 has been provided by Link Mauve[1] and ppc64le support[2] has been
merged over it. ppc32 needs some toolchain fixes mentioned in the patch
`rust: Add PowerPC support` and the discussion for that is done here[1].

This has been tested on
- powernv9 hardware
- pseries P11 hardware
- pseries(9, 10) qemu
- powernv(9, 10) qemu
- rustdoc on x86 and powerpc64le
- rusttest on x86 and powerpc64le

We are actively working with our LLVM team to get the target for ppc,
ppc64 and ppc64le in the rust compiler.

Changelog:
V7 -> V8:
- rust/Makefile updated to separate host libraries from target
V7: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260329160254.2592207-1-mkchauras@gmail.com/

Changelog:
V6 -> V7:
- Documentation removed as powerpc is still under development
- Added a fix for race condition in rust/Makefile
V6: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260210090023.2587534-1-mkchauras@gmail.com

V5 -> V6:
- Added a missing Tested by from Venkat which got missed since V3
- Support is marked as Maintained instead of experimental
V5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260210053756.2088302-1-mkchauras@gmail.com

V4 -> V5:
- Removed a nested ifdef from PPC64 for Little endian toolchain
V4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260209105456.1551677-1-mkchauras@gmail.com

V2 -> V3:
- Splited HAVE_RUST in 2 lines
- BINDGEN_TARGET_powerpc initialized before assigning the same to
  BINDGEN_TARGET
V2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260204210125.613350-1-mkchauras@gmail.com

V1 -> V2:
- jump label fix for rust has been moved to a separate patch
- PPC32 support has been taken
- rust support has been marked experimental
- target.json dependency has been removed
- HAVE_RUST now depends on CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN for PPC64

[PATCH V8 1/4] rust: Fix "multiple candidates for rmeta dependency core" error

[Mukesh Kumar Chaurasiya (IBM)]

When building Rust code with LLVM=1 with -j1, rustc was encountering
an error:
"multiple candidates for `rmeta` dependency `core` found", with two
candidates:
1. The host's standard library from the rustup toolchain
2. The kernel's custom libcore.rmeta in the rust/ directory

This occurred because the build system was using `-L$(objtree)/rust`
for host library builds (proc_macro2, quote, syn), which caused rustc
to search the rust/ directory. During this search, rustc would find
both the kernel's custom libcore.rmeta and gain access to the host's
standard library, creating a conflict.

The solution is to separate host libraries into a dedicated rust/host/
subdirectory and use `-L$(objtree)/rust/host` for host builds instead
of `-L$(objtree)/rust`. This ensures that:

1. Host library builds (proc_macro2, quote, syn) only search rust/host/
   and never encounter the kernel's libcore.rmeta
2. Proc macro builds use `-L$(objtree)/rust/host` to find their
   dependencies
3. Test builds use `-L$(objtree)/rust/test` for their dependencies
4. Target builds continue to use `-L$(objtree)/rust` as before

Special handling is added for rustdoc-pin_init, which is a host build
(to access the alloc crate) but depends on proc macros from the main
rust/ directory. It uses explicit `--extern` paths with absolute paths
to reference the proc macros without adding `-L$(objtree)/rust`, which
would reintroduce the conflict.

The rust/host/ directory is added to clean-files to ensure it's removed
during `make clean`.

Changes:
- Add clean-files := host/ to clean the generated directory
- Change host library targets from lib*.rlib to host/lib*.rlib
- Update cmd_rustc_procmacrolibrary to create host/ directory
- Update cmd_rustc_procmacro to use -L$(objtree)/rust/host
- Update cmd_rustdoc to use -L$(objtree)/rust/host for host builds
- Update cmd_rustc_test_library to use -L$(objtree)/rust/test
- Update rustdoc-pin_init to use explicit --extern paths for proc macros

This should go after the tags and ---, so it's not part of the commit message.

Why not just add `-L$(objtree)/$(obj)/host`? If we go with the host directory
approach we shouldn't need to explicitly specify the path?

Best,
Gary

Hey Gary,

I was intending that to be a part of commit message. May be specifying
that as changes is confusing. I'll put it there as a summary.

In addition to what Gary said, I am not sure if you will need to use
`abspath` anymore in the new one, but in any case, if you do, please
clarify if/why it wouldn't work without an absolute one.

Thanks!

[PATCH V8 2/4] powerpc/jump_label: adjust inline asm to be consistent

[Mukesh Kumar Chaurasiya (IBM)]

Added support for a new macro ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH_ASM in powerpc
to avoid duplication of inline asm between C and Rust. This is
inline with 'commit aecaf181651c ("jump_label: adjust inline asm to be consistent")'

[PATCH V8 3/4] rust: Add PowerPC support

[Mukesh Kumar Chaurasiya (IBM)]

From: Link Mauve <linkmauve@linkmauve.fr>

For now only Big Endian 32-bit PowerPC is supported, as that is the only
hardware I have.  This has been tested on the Nintendo Wii so far, but I
plan on also using it on the GameCube, Wii U and Apple G4.

These changes aren’t the only ones required to get the kernel to compile
and link on PowerPC, libcore will also have to be changed to not use
integer division to format u64, u128 and core::time::Duration, otherwise
__udivdi3() and __umoddi3() will have to be added.  I have tested this
change by replacing the three implementations with unimplemented!() and
it linked just fine.
