Subject: [PATCH v9 3/5] rust: debugfs: Support `PinInit` backing for `File`s.
Date: Wed, 09 Jul 2025 19:09:30 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250709-debugfs-rust-v9-3-92b9eab5a951@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250709-debugfs-rust-v9-0-92b9eab5a951@google.com>
This allows `File`s to own their data, allowing DebugFS files to be
managed in sync with the data that backs them. Because DebugFS files are
intended to actually own data and provide access, `File`s still maintain
the same lifecycle for provided data when `CONFIG_DEBUG_FS` is disabled.
