The trace crate is a minimal container for dependencies of tracepoints
(so that they do not have to be imported in all the crates that use
tracepoints); it also contains a macro called "include_trace!" that is
able to find the right include file from the trace/ directory.

As more crates start using the same dependencies, it's better to not
repeat the versions and move the dependency declarations to the workspace.

Provide an implementation of std::error::Error that bridges the Rust
anyhow::Error and std::panic::Location types with QEMU's Error*.
It also has several utility methods, analogous to error_propagate(),
that convert a Result into a return value + Error** pair. One important
difference is that these propagation methods *panic* if *errp is NULL,
unlike error_propagate() which eats subsequent errors[1]. The reason
for this is that in C you have an error_set*() call at the site where
the error is created, and calls to error_propagate() are relatively rare.
In Rust instead, even though these functions do "propagate" a
qemu_api::Error into a C Error**, there is no error_setg() anywhere that
could check for non-NULL errp and call abort(). error_propagate()'s
behavior of ignoring subsequent errors is generally considered weird,
and there would be a bigger risk of triggering it from Rust code.
[1] This is actually a violation of the preconditions of error_propagate(),
so it should not happen. But you never know...

One common thing that device emulation does is manipulate bitmasks, for example
to check whether two bitmaps have common bits. One example in the pl011 crate
is the checks for pending interrupts, where an interrupt cause corresponds to
at least one interrupt source from a fixed set.
Unfortunately, this is one case where Rust *can* provide some kind of
abstraction but it does so with a rather Perl-ish There Is More Way To
Do It. It is not something where a crate like "bilge" helps, because
it only covers the packing of bits in a structure; operations like "are
all bits of Y set in X" almost never make sense for bit-packed structs;
you need something else, there are several crates that do it and of course
we're going to roll our own.
In particular I examined three:
- bitmask (https://docs.rs/bitmask/0.5.0/bitmask/) does not support const
at all. This is a showstopper because one of the ugly things in the
current pl011 code is the ugliness of code that defines interrupt masks
at compile time:
pub const E: Self = Self(Self::OE.0 | Self::BE.0 | Self::PE.0 | Self::FE.0);
or even worse:
const IRQMASK: [u32; 6] = [
Interrupt::E.0 | Interrupt::MS.0 | Interrupt::RT.0 | Interrupt::TX.0 | Interrupt::RX.0,
...
}
You would have to use roughly the same code---"bitmask" only helps with
defining the struct.
- bitmask_enum (https://docs.rs/bitmask-enum/2.2.5/bitmask_enum/) does not
have a good separation of "valid" and "invalid" bits, so for example "!x"
will invert all 16 bits if you choose u16 as the representation -- even if
you only defined 10 bits. This makes it easier to introduce subtle bugs
in comparisons.
- bitflags (https://docs.rs/bitflags/2.6.0/bitflags/) is generally the most
used such crate and is the one that I took most inspiration from with
respect to the syntax. It's a pretty sophisticated implementation,
with a lot of bells and whistles such as an implementation of "Iter"
that returns the bits one at a time.
The main thing that all of them lack, however, is a way to simplify the
ugly definitions like the above. "bitflags" includes const methods that
perform AND/OR/XOR of masks (these are necessary because Rust operator
overloading does not support const yet, and therefore overloaded operators
cannot be used in the definition of a "static" variable), but they become
even more verbose and unmanageable, like
Interrupt::E.union(Interrupt::MS).union(Interrupt::RT).union(Interrupt::TX).union(Interrupt::RX)
This was the main reason to create "bits", which allows something like
bits!(Interrupt: E | MS | RT | TX | RX)
and expands it 1) add "Interrupt::" in front of all identifiers 2) convert
operators to the wordy const functions like "union". It supports boolean
operators "&", "|", "^", "!" and parentheses, with a relatively simple
recursive descent parser that's implemented in qemu_api_macros.
Since I don't remember exactly how the macro was developed, I cannot exclude
that it contains code from "bitflags". Therefore, I am conservatively leaving
in the MIT and Apache 2.0 licenses from bitflags. In fact, I think there
would be a benefit in being able to push code back to "bitflags" anyway
whenever applicable, so that the two libraries do not diverge too much,
so that's another reason to use this.

Meson has support for invoking clippy and rustdoc on all crates (1.7.0 for
clippy, 1.8.0 for rustdoc). Use it instead of the homegrown version; this
requires disabling the multiple_crate_versions lint (the only one that was
enabled from the "cargo" group)---which was not particularly useful anyway
because all dependencies are converted by hand into Meson subprojects.
rustfmt is still not supported.

Generalize timer_and_addr() to decode all registers into a single enum
HPETRegister, and use the TryInto derive to separate valid and
invalid values.
The main advantage lies in checking that all registers are enumerated
in the "match" statements.

Define HPETFwEntry structure with the same memory layout as
hpet_fw_entry in C.
Further, define the global hpet_cfg variable in Rust which is the
same as the C version. This hpet_cfg variable in Rust will replace
the C version one and allows both Rust code and C code to access it.
The Rust version of hpet_cfg is self-contained, avoiding unsafe
access to C code.

missing_const_for_fn is not necessarily useful or good. For example in
a private API you can always add const later, and in a public API
it can be unnecessarily restrictive to annotate everything with const
(blocking further improvements to the API).
Nevertheless, QEMU turns it on because qemu_api uses const quite
aggressively and therefore it can be handy to have as much as possible
annotated with const. Outside qemu_api though, not so much: devices
are self contained consumers and if there is nothing that could use
their functions in const contexts that were not anticipated.
Since missing_const_for_fn can be a bit noisy and trigger on trivial
functions that no one would ever call in const context, do not
turn it on everywhere and only keep it in qemu_api as a special case.

Add traits that let client cast typecast safely between object types.
In particular, an upcast is compile-time guaranteed to succeed, and a
YOLO C-style downcast must be marked as unsafe.
The traits are based on an IsA<> trait that declares what
is a subclass of what, which is an idea taken from glib-rs
(https://docs.rs/glib/latest/glib/object/trait.IsA.html).
The four primitives are also taken from there
(https://docs.rs/glib/latest/glib/object/trait.Cast.html). However,
the implementation of casting itself is a bit different and uses the
Deref trait.
This removes some pointer arithmetic from the pl011 device; it is also a
prerequisite for the definition of methods, so that they can be invoked
on all subclass structs. This will use the IsA<> trait to detect the
structs that support the methods.
glib also has a "monadic" casting trait which could be implemented on
Option (as in https://docs.rs/glib/latest/glib/object/trait.CastNone.html)
and perhaps even Result. For now I'm leaving it out, as the patch is
already big enough and the benefit seems debatable.

Many lints that default to allow can be helpful in detecting bugs or
keeping the code style homogeneous. Add them liberally, though perhaps
not as liberally as in hw/char/pl011/src/lib.rs. In particular, enabling
entire groups can be problematic because of bitrot when new links are
added in the future.
For Clippy, this is actually a feature that is only present in Cargo
1.74.0 but, since we are not using Cargo to *build* QEMU, only developers
will need a new-enough cargo and only to run tools such as clippy.
The requirement does not apply to distros that are building QEMU.

An extra benefit of workspaces is that they allow to place lint level
settings in a single Cargo.toml; the settings are then inherited by
packages in the workspace.
Correspondingly, teach rustc_args.py to get the unexpected_cfgs
configuration from the workspace Cargo.toml.
Note that it is still possible to allow or deny warnings per crate or
module, via the #![] attribute syntax. The rust/qemu-api/src/bindings.rs
file is an example.

Workspaces allows tracking dependencies for multiple crates at once,
by having a single Cargo.lock file at the top of the rust/ tree.
Because QEMU's Cargo.lock files have to be synchronized with the versions
of crates in subprojects/, using a workspace avoids the need to copy
over the Cargo.lock file when adding a new device (and thus a new crate)
under rust/hw/.
In addition, workspaces let cargo download and build dependencies just
once. While right now we have one leaf crate (hw/char/pl011), this
will not be the case once more devices are added.
