Linux kernel source tree
753dece88d
This is a subset of the Rust standard library `alloc` crate,
version 1.62.0, licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", from:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/tree/1.62.0/library/alloc/src
The files are copied as-is, with no modifications whatsoever
(not even adding the SPDX identifiers).
For copyright details, please see:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/1.62.0/COPYRIGHT
The next patch modifies these files as needed for use within
the kernel. This patch split allows reviewers to double-check
the import and to clearly see the differences introduced.
Vendoring `alloc`, at least for the moment, allows us to have fallible
allocations support (i.e. the `try_*` versions of methods which return
a `Result` instead of panicking) early on. It also gives a bit more
freedom to experiment with new interfaces and to iterate quickly.
Eventually, the goal is to have everything the kernel needs in
upstream `alloc` and drop it from the kernel tree.
For a summary of work on `alloc` happening upstream, please see:
https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/408
The following script may be used to verify the contents:
for path in $(cd rust/alloc/ && find . -type f -name '*.rs'); do
curl --silent --show-error --location \
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/raw/1.62.0/library/alloc/src/$path \
| diff --unified rust/alloc/$path - && echo $path: OK
done

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
