[GIT PULL] [PATCH 0/4] Rust locking changes for v6.18
Posted by Boqun Feng 1 week, 5 days ago
Hi Peter & Ingo,

Please pull this (mostly) Rust locking changes to tip. It's a bit late
than usual because I was at Kangrejos conference this week, however the
changes are relatively small and simple, so I think it's Ok for v6.18.
I also try using "git notes" for submission links as Thomas suggests,
let see how it goes ;-)

The following changes since commit 17d9f8eaa87d40a2ff66598875a43363e37a909b:

  MAINTAINERS: update atomic infrastructure entry to include Rust (2025-09-15 09:38:36 +0200)

are available in the Git repository at:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/boqun/linux.git/ tags/rust-locking.2025.09.19a

  rust: lock: Add a Pin<&mut T> accessor (2025-09-15 22:28:35 -0400)

Locking changes for v6.18:

- Fix a data-race in do_raw_write_lock reported by KCSAN

Rust locking changes for v6.18

- Make `data` in `Lock` structurally pinned.

  Previously the `data` field of a `Lock<T>` is not structurally pinned,
  and it's impossible to initialize the `data` field with a
  pin-initializer, hence e.g. a `Lock<T>` where T is a pin-initialized
  type is not supported. This encourages workarounds like
  `Lock<Pin<KBox<T>>`, which is more complicated and less efficient.
  Therefore make the `data` field in `Lock` structurally pinned to
  support pin-initialized types in a `Lock<T>`.

  Since the `data` field is structurally pinned, make `Guard<T, ...>`
  only `DerefMut` is T is Unpin, otherwise `Guard::as_mut()` is added to
  provide a `Pin<&mut T>`. This is different than normal Rust standand
  library locks.
