[PATCH v7 00/17] rnull: add configfs, remote completion to rnull

[PATCH v7 00/17] rnull: add configfs, remote completion to rnull

[Andreas Hindborg]

This series adds configuration via configfs and remote completion to
the rnull driver. The series also includes a set of changes to the
rust block device driver API: a few cleanup patches, and a few features
supporting the rnull changes.

The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from `kernel::block`
and improves the logic available in `kernel::string` to support the same
use as the removed logic.

This series is a smaller subset of the patches available in the
downstream rnull tree. I hope to minimize the delta between upstream
and downstream over the next few kernel releases.

[PATCH v7 04/17] rust: str: introduce `NullTerminatedFormatter`

[Andreas Hindborg]

Add `NullTerminatedFormatter`, a formatter that writes a null terminated
string to an array or slice buffer. Because this type needs to manage the
trailing null marker, the existing formatters cannot be used to implement
this type.

[PATCH v7 06/17] rust: configfs: re-export `configfs_attrs` from `configfs` module

[Andreas Hindborg]

Re-export `configfs_attrs` from `configfs` module, so that users can import
the macro from the `configfs` module rather than the root of the `kernel`
crate.

Also update users to import from the new path.

[PATCH v7 08/17] rust: block: use `NullTerminatedFormatter`

[Andreas Hindborg]

Use the new `NullTerminatedFormatter` to write the name of a `GenDisk` to
the name buffer. This new formatter automatically adds a trailing null
marker after the written characters, so we don't need to append that at the
call site any longer.
