Subject: [PATCH v11 1/2] rust: ffi: Convert pub use to pub mod and create ffi module
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 17:27:33 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260224222734.3153931-2-joelagnelf@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260224222734.3153931-1-joelagnelf@nvidia.com>
Convert `pub use ffi` to `pub mod ffi` in lib.rs and create the
corresponding `rust/kernel/ffi/mod.rs` module file. Also re-export all C
type definitions from `ffi` crate so that existing `kernel::ffi::c_int`
etc. paths continue to work.
This prepares the ffi module to host additional sub-modules in later
patches (clist).
