2023-12-21rust: support `srctree`-relative linksMiguel Ojeda1-1/+1
Some of our links use relative paths in order to point to files in the source tree, e.g.: //! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](../../../../include/linux/printk.h) /// [`struct mutex`]: ../../../../include/linux/mutex.h These are problematic because they are hard to maintain and do not support `O=` builds. Instead, provide support for `srctree`-relative links, e.g.: //! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](srctree/include/linux/printk.h) /// [`struct mutex`]: srctree/include/linux/mutex.h The links are fixed after `rustdoc` generation to be based on the absolute path to the source tree. Essentially, this is the automatic version of Tomonori's fix [1], suggested by Gary [2].

2023-09-25rust: workqueue: add examplesAlice Ryhl1-0/+106
This adds two examples of how to use the workqueue. The first example shows how to use it when you only have one `work_struct` field, and the second example shows how to use it when you have multiple `work_struct` fields.

2023-09-25rust: workqueue: add `try_spawn` helper methodAlice Ryhl1-0/+43
This adds a convenience method that lets you spawn a closure for execution on a workqueue. This will be the most convenient way to use workqueues, but it is fallible because it needs to allocate memory.

2023-09-25rust: workqueue: implement `WorkItemPointer` for pointer typesAlice Ryhl1-1/+96
This implements the `WorkItemPointer` trait for the pointer types that you are likely to use the workqueue with. The `Arc` type is for reference counted objects, and the `Pin<Box<T>>` type is for objects where the caller has exclusive ownership of the object.

2023-09-25rust: workqueue: add helper for defining work_struct fieldsAlice Ryhl1-1/+256
The main challenge with defining `work_struct` fields is making sure that the function pointer stored in the `work_struct` is appropriate for the work item type it is embedded in. It needs to know the offset of the `work_struct` field being used (even if there are several!) so that it can do a `container_of`, and it needs to know the type of the work item so that it can call into the right user-provided code. All of this needs to happen in a way that provides a safe API to the user, so that users of the workqueue cannot mix up the function pointers. There are three important pieces that are relevant when doing this: * The pointer type. * The work item struct. This is what the pointer points at. * The `work_struct` field. This is a field of the work item struct. This patch introduces a separate trait for each piece. The pointer type is given a `WorkItemPointer` trait, which pointer types need to implement to be usable with the workqueue. This trait will be implemented for `Arc` and `Box` in a later patch in this patchset. Implementing this trait is unsafe because this is where the `container_of` operation happens, but user-code will not need to implement it themselves. The work item struct should then implement the `WorkItem` trait. This trait is where user-code specifies what they want to happen when a work item is executed. It also specifies what the correct pointer type is. Finally, to make the work item struct know the offset of its `work_struct` field, we use a trait called `HasWork<T, ID>`. If a type implements this trait, then the type declares that, at the given offset, there is a field of type `Work<T, ID>`. The trait is marked unsafe because the OFFSET constant must be correct, but we provide an `impl_has_work!` macro that can safely implement `HasWork<T>` on a type. The macro expands to something that only compiles if the specified field really has the type `Work<T>`. It is used like this: ``` struct MyWorkItem { work_field: Work<MyWorkItem, 1>, } impl_has_work! { impl HasWork<MyWorkItem, 1> for MyWorkItem { self.work_field } } ``` Note that since the `Work` type is annotated with an id, you can have several `work_struct` fields by using a different id for each one.

2023-09-25rust: workqueue: define built-in queuesWedson Almeida Filho1-0/+71
We provide these methods because it lets us access these queues from Rust without using unsafe code. These methods return `&'static Queue`. References annotated with the 'static lifetime are used when the referent will stay alive forever. That is ok for these queues because they are global variables and cannot be destroyed.
