[PATCH v5 00/14] hrtimer Rust API

[PATCH v5 00/14] hrtimer Rust API

[Andreas Hindborg]

This series adds support for using the `hrtimer` subsystem from Rust code.

This version adds support for timer mode and clock source configuration during
timer initialization. Examples and functionality to execute closures at timer
expiration has been removed, as these depend on either atomics [3] or
`SpinLockIrq` [4], which are still being worked on.

This series is a dependency for unmerged features of the Rust null block driver
[1], and for rkvms [2].

- use a handle to own the timer callback target
- add ability to for callback to reschedule timer
- improve `impl_has_timer` to allow generics
- add support for stack allocated timers
- add support for scheduling closures

[PATCH v5 01/14] rust: time: Add Ktime::from_ns()

[Andreas Hindborg]

From: Lyude Paul <lyude@redhat.com>

A simple function to turn the provided value in nanoseconds into a Ktime
value. We allow any type which implements Into<bindings::ktime_t>, which
resolves to Into<i64>.

This is useful for some of the older DRM APIs that never got moved to Ktime

[PATCH v5 02/14] rust: hrtimer: introduce hrtimer support

[Andreas Hindborg]

This patch adds support for intrusive use of the hrtimer system. For now,
only one timer can be embedded in a Rust struct.

The hrtimer Rust API is based on the intrusive style pattern introduced by
the Rust workqueue API.

[PATCH v5 05/14] rust: hrtimer: allow timer restart from timer handler

[Andreas Hindborg]

This patch allows timer handlers to report that they want a timer to be
restarted after the timer handler has finished executing.

Also update the `hrtimer` documentation to showcase the new feature.

[PATCH v5 07/14] rust: hrtimer: add `hrtimer::ScopedTimerPointer`

[Andreas Hindborg]

Add the trait `ScopedTimerPointer` to allow safe use of stack allocated
timers. Safety is achieved by pinning the stack in place while timers are
running.

Implement the trait for all types that implement `UnsafeTimerPointer`.

I seem to remember we had a debate on that. Why not call that Hrtimer?
Timer is a bit too generic for a name. I suspect you'll need to introduce
jiffies based timer bindings in the future as well and then some confusion
may arise.

Yes, let's rename it. Good call.

Thanks! Lyude Paul has some patches that adds methods that operate
within timer context, including forwarding. I think they will send them
after this lands.
