Subject: [PATCH v14 1/7] pwm: Export `pwmchip_release` for external use
Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2025 10:35:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250820-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v14-1-df2191621429@samsung.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250820-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v14-0-df2191621429@samsung.com>
The upcoming Rust abstraction layer for the PWM subsystem uses a custom
`dev->release` handler to safely manage the lifetime of its driver
data.
To prevent leaking the memory of the `struct pwm_chip` (allocated by
`pwmchip_alloc`), this custom handler must also call the original
`pwmchip_release` function to complete the cleanup.
Make `pwmchip_release` a global, exported function so that it can be
called from the Rust FFI bridge. This involves removing the `static`
keyword, adding a prototype to the public header, and exporting the
symbol.
