Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] rust: impl_flags: add convenience functions
Date: Fri, 05 Jun 2026 15:04:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260605-impl-flags-additions-v2-0-0d27242f460b@kernel.org> (raw)
Add a few convenience functions that makes it easier to work with the
`impl_flags` module and C APIs.
These conversion functions are useful when assigning flags to C structs in
Rust abstractions:
let mut lim = bindings::queue_limits::zeroed();
if self.rotational {
lim.features = Feature::Rotational.into();
}
if self.write_cache {
lim.features |= Feature::WriteCache;
}
Or when providing flags from C to Rust:
impl<T: Operations> RequestInner<T> {
pub fn flags(&self) -> Flags {
// SAFETY: By C API contract and type invariant, `cmd_flags` is valid for read
let flags = unsafe { (*self.0.get()).cmd_flags & !((1 << bindings::REQ_OP_BITS) - 1) };
Flags::try_from(flags).expect("Request should have valid falgs")
}
}

Changes in v2:
- Use an `as` cast instead of `core::mem::transmute` in
`From<$flag> for $ty` (Miguel).
- Replace the `match` in `TryFrom::try_from` with an early-return
`if` (Miguel)
- Construct the result directly instead of via `transmute` in `try_from`
(Miguel).
- Use `Self` in the new conversion impls (Miguel).
- Mark `TryFrom::try_from` `#[inline]`.
- Extend the rustdoc example to demonstrate both new conversion
impls (Miguel).
