[PATCH v3 1/2] scripts: generate_rust_analyzer.py: add versioning infrastructure
Posted by Jesung Yang via B4 Relay 1 month ago
From: Jesung Yang <y.j3ms.n@gmail.com>

Introduce multi-version support for rust-analyzer. The script now
executes `rust-analyzer --version` to query the version string and
generates a `rust-project.json` file compatible with the detected
version.

This is a preparatory patch to address inherent method resolution
failures for primitive types occurring in rust-analyzer v0.3.2693
(2025-11-24) or later when used with our current `rust-project.json`
generation logic. Since the actual fix requires using the `sysroot_src`
field with a feature only available in rust-analyzer v0.3.2727
(2025-12-22) or later, this infrastructure is necessary to maintain
compatibility with older rust-analyzer releases.

Unlike other types that are intended to be serialized to JSON, this type is
strictly for internal use. Could we make it a `@dataclass` instead of a
`TypedDict`? That produces more pleasant syntax and clarifies the intended use.

Could we define these constants closer to their point of use? I understand the
custom of keeping these things near the top of the file but this 400-line
separation makes it hard to see that there is quite tight coupling between the
two sites.

Should this logic (inspecting `manual_sysroot_crates`) be in
`append_sysroot_crate`?

Can you help me understand this addition? It's not mentioned except in the

Could we make RaVersionInfo an enum? That would allow mypy to do this check
(using `match`) rather than relying on this.

Assuming you're referring to `crate_attrs=["no_std"]`, this makes
rust-analyzer treat crates in `driver/` and `samples/` as if
`#![no_std]` were specified in their crate roots (they don't contain
`#![no_std]` themselves).

(Actually, I'm uncertain if this is the part you wanted me to elaborate
on. Please let me know if you need more context.)

I think you want something like the following?

@enum.unique
class RaVersionInfo(enum.Enum):
    V20240311 = (
        datetime.strptime("2024-03-11", "%Y-%m-%d"),
        ra_version=(0, 3, 1877),
        rust_version=(1, 78, 0),
    )
    V20251222 = ( ... )

    def __init__(
        self,
        release_date: date,
        ra_version: Version,
        rust_version: Version,
    ) -> "RaVersionInfo":
        self.release_date = release_date
        self.ra_version = ra_version
        self.rust_version = rust_version

    @staticmethod
    def default() -> "RaVersionInfo":
        return RaVersionInfo.V20240311

At the call site, we can access each field via the dot operator. This
not only removes `BASELINES` and `DEFAULT_BASELINE` but also ensures
that we only match against valid variants, which helps reduce the chance
of human error. But unfortunately, `match` was introduced in Python
3.10, whereas the kernel only requires Python 3.9 [1]. This means we
cannot leverage mypy's exhaushtiveness check yet. Perhaps I could leave
a TODO to remove the assertion and switch to `match` once Python 3.10 is
adopted.

The rest of the feedback sounds reasonable to me.

Yes, that's what I was referring to. Still, it's not clear to me why
that is part of this patch. Is it intentional, or incidental?

Yes, sorry for the ambiguity.

That sounds reasonable to me. You can also name the variants in a more
semantically meaningful way like DEFAULT, SUPPORTS_XXX, etc.

Finally, `__init__` should return None, not Self.

Ah, now I see your point. Yes, this should be in `scripts: 
generate_rust_analyzer.py: fix IDE support for primitive types`
(PATCH [2/2]).

Sounds good to me.

On second thought, I think we can also take advantage of mypy's static
exhaustiveness check by introducing `assert_never`. I'll send v4 and
let's see if it works for you too.

> Finally, `__init__` should return None, not Self.

Absolutely, I'll make that change.

My pleasure!
