This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled rust: fix the default format for CONFIG_{RUSTC,BINDGEN}_VERSION_TEXT to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: rust-fix-the-default-format-for-config_-rustc-bindge.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit f58002b26fcdbed776efec0e13829e9af9069ade Author: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Jul 27 23:03:00 2024 +0900 rust: fix the default format for CONFIG_{RUSTC,BINDGEN}_VERSION_TEXT [ Upstream commit aacf93e87f0d808ef46e621aa56caea336b4433c ] Another oddity in these config entries is their default value can fall back to 'n', which is a value for bool or tristate symbols. The '|| echo n' is an incorrect workaround to avoid the syntax error. This is not a big deal, as the entry is hidden by 'depends on RUST' in situations where '$(RUSTC) --version' or '$(BINDGEN) --version' fails. Anyway, it looks odd. The default of a string type symbol should be a double-quoted string literal. Turn it into an empty string when the version command fails.
