From a39f3087092716f2bd531d6fdc20403c3dc2a879 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miguel Ojeda ojeda@kernel.org Date: Fri, 2 May 2025 16:02:34 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] rust: allow Rust 1.87.0's `clippy::ptr_eq` lint
Starting with Rust 1.87.0 (expected 2025-05-15) [1], Clippy may expand the `ptr_eq` lint, e.g.:
error: use `core::ptr::eq` when comparing raw pointers --> rust/kernel/list.rs:438:12 | 438 | if self.first == item { | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: try: `core::ptr::eq(self.first, item)` | = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#ptr_eq = note: `-D clippy::ptr-eq` implied by `-D warnings` = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(clippy::ptr_eq)]`
It is expected that a PR to relax the lint will be backported [2] by the time Rust 1.87.0 releases, since the lint was considered too eager (at least by default) [3].
Thus allow the lint temporarily just in case.
