Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] samples: rust_misc_device: Expand the sample to support read()ing from userspace
Date: Fri, 04 Jul 2025 09:26:03 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250704-iov-iter-v2-4-e69aa7c1f40e@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250704-iov-iter-v2-0-e69aa7c1f40e@google.com>
From: Lee Jones <lee@kernel.org>
A userland application can now operate on the char device with read() in
order to consume a locally held buffer. Memory for the buffer is to be
provisioned and the buffer populated in its subsequently provided
write() counterpart.
