Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (released 2025-06-26), `rustdoc` complains
about a target modifier mismatch in configurations where `-Zfixed-x18`
is passed:
error: mixing `-Zfixed-x18` will cause an ABI mismatch in crate `rust_out`
|
= help: the `-Zfixed-x18` flag modifies the ABI so Rust crates compiled with different values of this flag cannot be used together safely
= note: unset `-Zfixed-x18` in this crate is incompatible with `-Zfixed-x18=` in dependency `core`
= help: set `-Zfixed-x18=` in this crate or unset `-Zfixed-x18` in `core`
= help: if you are sure this will not cause problems, you may use `-Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=fixed-x18` to silence this error
The reason is that `rustdoc` was not passing the target modifiers when
configuring the session options, and thus it would report a mismatch
that did not exist as soon as a target modifier is used in a dependency.
We did not notice it in the kernel until now because `-Zfixed-x18` has
been a target modifier only since 1.88.0 (and it is the only one we use
so far).
The issue has been reported upstream [1] and a fix has been submitted
[2], including a test similar to the kernel case.
Meanwhile, conditionally pass `-Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=fixed-x18`
to workaround the issue on our side.
