This is a reimagining relative to earlier versions[0] by Asahi Lina and
Maíra Canal.

It is needed to support rust-binder, though this version only provides
enough machinery to support rnull.

Changes in v11:
- Consolidate imports. (Alice Ryhl)
- Use literal `0` rather than `MIN`. (Alice Ryhl)
- Use bulleted list in SAFETY comment. (Alice Ryhl)
- Document (un)locking behavior of `Guard::store`. (Alice Rhyl)
- Document Normal API behavior WRT `XA_ZERO_ENTRY`. (Alice Rhyl)
- Rewrite `unsafe impl Sync` SAFETY comment. (Andreas Hindborg)
- Link to v10: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241120-rust-xarray-bindings-v10-0-a25b2b0bf582@gmail.com

Changes in v10:
- Guard::get takes &self instead of &mut self. (Andreas Hindborg)
- Guard is !Send. (Boqun Feng)
- Add Inspired-by tags. (Maíra Canal and Asahi Lina)
- Rebase on linux-next, use NotThreadSafe. (Alice Ryhl)
- Link to v9: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241118-rust-xarray-bindings-v9-0-3219cdb53685@gmail.com

Allow implementors to specify the foreign pointer type; this exposes
information about the pointed-to type such as its alignment.

This requires the trait to be `unsafe` since it is now possible for
implementors to break soundness by returning a misaligned pointer.

Encoding the pointer type in the trait (and avoiding pointer casts)
allows the compiler to check that implementors return the correct
pointer type. This is preferable to directly encoding the alignment in
the trait using a constant as the compiler would be unable to check it.

`XArray` is an efficient sparse array of pointers. Add a Rust
abstraction for this type.

This implementation bounds the element type on `ForeignOwnable` and
requires explicit locking for all operations. Future work may leverage
RCU to enable lockless operation.

I think you can use kernel::ffi::c_ulong already. Enough things were
merged in 6.13 for that to work. If you import kernel::ffi::c_ulong at
the top of this file, then you can just do c_ulong::MAX in the
function calls below.

You use core::ptr::NonNull in many places. Consider importing it.

We can see in your examples that this return type is inconvenient.
Perhaps it would be better to make a new error type containing a T and
an Error, and implement From so that the question mark can convert
directly to Error (throwing away the T).

I don't think Sync is needed due to the spinlock.

This isn't about using kernel::ffi::c_ulong; it's about using
usize::MAX. I'll clarify the comment and change this to use
kernel::ffi::c_ulong for now.

Agreed. How's this phrasing for the comment?

// SAFETY: It is safe to send `&XArray<T>` to another thread when the
underlying `T` is `Send`
// because any thread that has a `&XArray<T>` may lock it and get a
`Guard<T>` on that thread, so
// the thread may ultimately access `T` using a mutable borrow, for
example, using `get_mut` or
// `remove`. It is not necessary for `T` to be `Sync` because access
to immutable borrows of `T` is
// also synchronized through `Guard<T>`.

I don't think we need the last paragraph. How about this:

SAFETY: It is safe to send `&XArray<T>` to another thread when the
underlying `T` is `Send` because operations on the `XArray` are
synchronized internally, and all access to `T` owned by the `XArray` is
exclusive under the internal `XArray` lock.
