docs: add Rust documentation Most of the documentation for Rust is written within the source code itself, as it is idiomatic for Rust projects. This applies to both the shared infrastructure at `rust/` as well as any other Rust module (e.g. drivers) written across the kernel. However, these documents contain general information that does not fit particularly well in the source code, like the Quick Start guide. It also contains a few other small changes elsewhere in the documentation folder.

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.

arm64: rust: Enable Rust support for AArch64 This commit provides the build flags for Rust for AArch64. The core Rust support already in the kernel does the rest. This enables the PAC ret and BTI options in the Rust build flags to match the options that are used when building C. The Rust samples have been tested with this commit.

RISC-V: enable building 64-bit kernels with rust support The rust modules work on 64-bit RISC-V, with no twiddling required. Select HAVE_RUST and provide the required flags to kbuild so that the modules can be used. The Makefile and Kconfig changes are lifted from work done by Miguel in the Rust-for-Linux tree, hence his authorship. Following the rabbit hole, the Makefile changes originated in a script, created based on config files originally added by Gary, hence his co-authorship. 32-bit is broken in core rust code, so support is limited to 64-bit: ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __udivdi3 As 64-bit RISC-V is now supported, add it to the arch support table.

arch: um: rust: Add i386 support for Rust 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].
