kbuild: rust: keep Rust objects out of Clang LTO with inline helpersgrafted
Under `CONFIG_LTO_CLANG` + `CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS`, one may hit
`objtool` errors such as:
vmlinux.o: error: objtool: _R..._3Gsp4boot+0xd6a:
can't find jump dest instruction at .text._R..._3Gsp4boot+0x1dfd
The reason is that in such builds, the Clang invocation that compiles
the combined Rust plus helpers bitcode emits LLVM bitcode (again) --
the final code generation happens in the linker's LTO step, which the
`-mllvm` trap options passed to Clang do not reach.
This, in turn, means that unreachable traps are missing, and the
impossible paths do not merely fallthrough to the next symbol, but past
the end of their own section, since LTO builds place each function in
its own section.
Thus filter `CC_FLAGS_LTO` out of the Clang invocation, so that it always
emits machine code directly, with the traps in place.

After being mapped, the remote block devices can be accessed +on the client side as local block devices. + +I/O is transferred between client and server by the RTRS transport +modules. The administration of RNBD and RTRS modules is done via +sysfs entries. + +Requirements +------------ + + RTRS kernel modules + +Quick Start +----------- + +Server side: + # modprobe rnbd_server + +Client side: + # modprobe rnbd_client + # echo "sessname=blya path=ip:10.50.100.66 device_path=/dev/ram0" > \ + /sys/devices/virtual/rnbd-client/ctl/map_device + + Where "sessname=" is a session name, a string to identify the session + on client and on server sides; "path=" is a destination IP address or + a pair of a source and a destination IPs, separated by comma. Multiple + "path=" options can be specified in order to use multipath (see RTRS + description for details); "device_path=" is the block device to be + mapped from the server side. After the session to the server machine is + established, the mapped device will appear on the client side under + /dev/rnbd<N>. + + +RNBD-Server Module Parameters +============================= + +dev_search_path +--------------- + +When a device is mapped from the client, the server generates the path +to the block device on the server side by concatenating dev_search_path +and the "device_path" that was specified in the map_device operation. + +The default dev_search_path is: "/". + +dev_search_path option can also contain %SESSNAME% in order to provide +different device namespaces for different sessions. See "device_path" +option for details. + +============================ +Protocol (rnbd/rnbd-proto.h) +============================ + +1. Before mapping first device from a given server, client sends an +RNBD_MSG_SESS_INFO to the server. Server responds with +RNBD_MSG_SESS_INFO_RSP. Currently the messages only contain the protocol +version for backward compatibility. + +2. Client requests to open a device by sending RNBD_MSG_OPEN message. This +contains the path to the device and access mode (read-only or writable). +Server responds to the message with RNBD_MSG_OPEN_RSP. This contains +a 32 bit device id to be used for IOs and device "geometry" related +information: side, max_hw_sectors, etc. + +3. Client attaches RNBD_MSG_IO to each IO message send to a device. This +message contains device id, provided by server in his rnbd_msg_open_rsp, +sector to be accessed, read-write flags and bi_size. + +4. Client closes a device by sending RNBD_MSG_CLOSE which contains only the +device id provided by the server. + +========================================= +Contributors List(in alphabetical order) +========================================= +Danil Kipnis <danil.kipnis@profitbricks.com> +Fabian Holler <mail@fholler.de> +Guoqing Jiang <guoqing.jiang@cloud.ionos.com> +Jack Wang <jinpu.wang@profitbricks.com> +Kleber Souza <kleber.souza@profitbricks.com> +Lutz Pogrell <lutz.pogrell@cloud.ionos.com> +Milind Dumbare <Milind.dumbare@gmail.com> +Roman Penyaev <roman.penyaev@profitbricks.com> +Swapnil Ingle <ingleswapnil@gmail.com> |
