At present, Rust in the kernel only supports 64-bit x86, so UML has followed suit. However, it's significantly easier to support 32-bit i386 on UML than on bare metal, as UML does not use the -mregparm option (which alters the ABI), which is not yet supported by rustc[1]. Add support for CONFIG_RUST on um/i386, by adding a new target config to generate_rust_target, and replacing various checks on CONFIG_X86_64 to also support CONFIG_X86_32. We still use generate_rust_target, rather than a built-in rustc target, in order to match x86_64, provide a future place for -mregparm, and more easily disable floating point instructions. With these changes, the KUnit tests pass with: kunit.py run --make_options LLVM=1 --kconfig_add CONFIG_RUST=y --kconfig_add CONFIG_64BIT=n --kconfig_add CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=n An earlier version of these changes was proposed on the Rust-for-Linux github[2].

Arch Support
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Currently, the Rust compiler (``rustc``) uses LLVM for code generation,
|
|
which limits the supported architectures that can be targeted. In addition,
|
|
support for building the kernel with LLVM/Clang varies (please see
|
|
Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst). This support is needed for ``bindgen``
|
|
which uses ``libclang``.
|
|
|
|
Below is a general summary of architectures that currently work. Level of
|
|
support corresponds to ``S`` values in the ``MAINTAINERS`` file.
