Our std_vendor.rs files contain code from adapted from upstream Rust. After a while, upstream Rust may have some improvements that we may want to merge into our version. Review the differences / recent changes and send a patch as needed. For instance, there is a change in the documentation to add column numbers to the dbg! examples to match what its output produces nowadays.
This requires submitting a proper patch to the LKML and the Rust for Linux mailing list. Please recall to test your changes (including generating the documentation if changed, running the Rust doctests if changed, etc.), to use a proper title for the commit, to sign your commit under the Developer's Certificate of Origin and to add a Suggested-by: tag and a Link: tag to this issue. Please see https://rust-for-linux.com/contributing for details.
Please take this issue only if you are new to the kernel development process and you would like to use it as a test to submit your first patch to the kernel. Please do not take it if you do not plan to make other contributions to the kernel.
