6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Gary Guo gary@garyguo.net
commit 1bae8729e50a900f41e9a1c17ae81113e4cf62b8 upstream.
The following FFI types are replaced compared to `core::ffi`:
1. `char` type is now always mapped to `u8`, since kernel uses `-funsigned-char` on the C code. `core::ffi` maps it to platform default ABI, which can be either signed or unsigned.
2. `long` is now always mapped to `isize`. It's very common in the kernel to use `long` to represent a pointer-sized integer, and in fact `intptr_t` is a typedef of `long` in the kernel. Enforce this mapping rather than mapping to `i32/i64` depending on platform can save us a lot of unnecessary casts.

Reworded slightly and reformatted a few documentation comments. Rebased on top of `rust-next`. Added the removal of two casts to avoid Clippy warnings. - Miguel ] Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda ojeda@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman gregkh@linuxfoundation.org --- rust/ffi.rs | 37 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- rust/kernel/error.rs | 5 +---- rust/kernel/firmware.rs | 2 +- rust/kernel/uaccess.rs | 27 +++++++-------------------- 4 files changed, 45 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-)
