Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y 44/60] rust: alloc: implement `Cmalloc` in module allocator_test
Date: Fri,  7 Mar 2025 23:49:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250307225008.779961-45-ojeda@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250307225008.779961-1-ojeda@kernel.org>

From: Danilo Krummrich <dakr@kernel.org>

commit dd09538fb4093176a818fcecd45114430cc5840f upstream.

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.
