Use better heuristic for printing Cargo specific diagnostics #121237

Urgau · 2024-02-17T15:55:29Z

It was reported in the check-cfg call for testing that the Rust for Linux project is setting the CARGO env without compiling with it, which is an issue since we are using the CARGO env as a proxy for "was launched from Cargo".

This PR switch to the CARGO_CRATE_NAME Cargo env, which shouldn't collide (as much) with other build systems. I also took the opportunity to consolidate all the checks under the same function.

Why is it setting CARGO if it isn't using cargo?

Why is it setting CARGO if it isn't using cargo?

From @ojeda in #82450 (comment):

Ah, I see; yeah, we use the variable to point to the Cargo binary (like we do for other compilers/tools).

[..] we set things like RUSTC, RUSTDOC, RUSTFMT, RUSTFLAGS... [..]; it is just that the kernel Makefile sets early on variables for the programs, e.g. CC, PYTHON3 etc., and since we currently use Cargo somewhere for unrelated reasons, we had CARGO too.

I like this a lot. And after all, it's also just a heuristic.

This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.77.1 to 1.78.0 (i.e. the latest) [1]. See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features There have been no changes to the set of unstable features used in our own code. Therefore, the only unstable features allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`. However, since we are finally dropping our `alloc` fork [3], all the unstable features used by `alloc` (~30 language ones, ~60 library ones) are not a concern anymore. This reduces the maintanance burden, increases the chances of new compiler versions working without changes and gets us closer to the goal of supporting several compiler versions. It also means that, ignoring non-language/library features, we are currently left with just the few language features needed to implement the kernel `Arc`, the `new_uninit` library feature, the `compiler_builtins` marker and the few `no_*` `cfg`s we pass when compiling `core`/`alloc`. Please see [4] for details. # Required changes ## LLVM's data layout Rust 1.77.0 (i.e. the previous upgrade) introduced a check for matching LLVM data layouts [5]. Then, Rust 1.78.0 upgraded LLVM's bundled major version from 17 to 18 [6], which changed the data layout in x86 [7]. Thus update the data layout in our custom target specification for x86 so that the compiler does not complain about the mismatch: error: data-layout for target `target-5559158138856098584`, `e-m:e-p270:32:32-p271:32:32-p272:64:64-i64:64-f80:128-n8:16:32:64-S128`, differs from LLVM target's `x86_64-linux-gnu` default layout, `e-m:e-p270:32:32-p271:32:32-p272:64:64-i64:64-i128:128-f80:128-n8:16:32:64-S128` In the future, the goal is to drop the custom target specification files. Meanwhile, if we want to support other LLVM versions used in `rustc` (e.g. for LTO), we will need to add some extra logic (e.g. conditional on LLVM's version, or extracting the data layout from an existing built-in target specification). ## `unused_imports` Rust's `unused_imports` lint covers both unused and redudant imports. Now, in 1.78.0, the lint detects more cases of redundant imports [8]. Thus the previous commit cleaned them up. ## Clippy's `new_without_default` Clippy now suggests to implement `Default` even when `new()` is `const`, since `Default::default()` may call `const` functions even if it is not `const` itself [9]. Thus the previous commit added the implementation. # Other changes in Rust Rust 1.78.0 introduces `feature(asm_goto)` [10] [11]. This feature was discussed in the past [12]. Rust 1.78.0 introduced support for mutable pointers to Rust statics, including a test case for the Linux kernel's `VTABLE` use case [13]. Rust 1.78.0 with debug assertions enabled (i.e. `-Cdebug-assertions=y`, kernel's `CONFIG_RUST_DEBUG_ASSERTIONS=y`) will now always check all unsafe preconditions, without a way to opt-out for particular cases [14]. Rust 1.78.0 also improved a couple issues we reported when giving feedback for the new `--check-cfg` feature [15] [16]. # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing As mentioned above, compiler upgrades will not update `alloc` anymore, since we are dropping our `alloc` fork [3]. As a bonus, even if that series is not applied, the new compiler release happens to build cleanly the existing `alloc` too (i.e. the previous version's).
