[PATCH V8 0/4] Rust support for powerpc
Posted by Mukesh Kumar Chaurasiya (IBM) 12 hours ago
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

V3 -> V4:
- Co-developed-by header added in patch 1
V3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260205180429.3280657-1-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
