Subject: [PATCH 15/18] rust: zerocopy-derive: avoid generating non-ASCII identifiers
Date: Tue,  2 Jun 2026 19:29:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260602172920.30342-16-ojeda@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260602172920.30342-1-ojeda@kernel.org>

Linux is built with `-Dnon_ascii_idents`. However, `zerocopy-derive`
uses a non-ASCII character (`ẕ`) internally, which in turn triggers
the lint when attempting to use derives like `FromBytes`:

    error: identifier contains non-ASCII characters
       --> rust/kernel/lib.rs:153:9
        |
    153 |         a: u32,
        |         ^
        |
        = note: requested on the command line with `-D non-ascii-idents`

This was already noticed by another project using
`#![deny(non_ascii_idents)]` [1]. `zerocopy` added an
`#[allow(non_ascii_idents)]` [2], but it does not work since, at the
moment, the `non_ascii_idents` lint is a `crate_level_only` one, and thus
`allow`s only work at the crate root level.

Due to this, an issue about relaxing this restriction was created in
upstream Rust [3]. So far, there have been no replies.

Thus work around it here by using another prefix. The likelihood of a
collision is very small for us, since we control the callers, and this
will hopefully be fixed soon at either the `zerocopy` or the Rust level.
