[PATCH v1 0/5] rust: time: Convert hrtimer to use Instant and Delta

[FUJITA Tomonori]

Convert hrtimer to use `Instant` and `Delta`; remove the use of
`Ktime` from the hrtimer code, which was originally introduced as a
temporary workaround.

hrtimer uses either an `Instant` or a `Delta` as its expiration value,
depending on the mode specified at creation time. This patchset
replaces `HrTimerMode` enum with a trait-based abstraction and
associates each mode with either an `Instant` or a `Delta`. By
leveraging Rust's type system, this change enables `HrTimer` to be
statically associated with a specific `HrTimerMode`, the corresponding
`Instant` or `Delta`, and a `ClockSource`.

The `impl_has_hr_timer` macro is extended to allow specifying the
`HrTimerMode`. In the following example, it guarantees that the
`start()` method for `Foo` only accepts `Instant<Monotonic>`. Using a
`Delta` or an `Instant` with a different clock source will result in a
compile-time error:

struct Foo {
    #[pin]
    timer: HrTimer<Self>,

}

impl_has_hr_timer! {
    impl HasHrTimer<Self> for Foo {
        mode = AbsoluteMode<Monotonic>,
        self.timer
    }
}

This design eliminates runtime mismatches between expires types and
clock sources, and enables stronger type-level guarantees throughout
hrtimer.

This patchset can be applied on top of the typed clock sources patchset:

[PATCH v1 1/5] rust: time: Change Delta methods to take &self instead of self

[FUJITA Tomonori]

Change several methods of the `Delta` type in Rust to take `&self`
instead of `self`. These methods do not mutate or consume the `Delta`
value and are more idiomatically expressed as taking a shared
reference. This change improves consistency with common Rust practice
and allows calling these methods on references without requiring an
explicit copy or move of the value.

[PATCH v1 2/5] rust: timer: Replace HrTimerMode enum with trait-based mode types

[FUJITA Tomonori]

Replace the `HrTimerMode` enum with a trait-based approach that uses
zero-sized types to represent each mode of operation. Each mode now
implements the `HrTimerMode` trait.

This refactoring is a preparation for replacing raw `Ktime` in HrTimer
with the `Instant` and `Delta` types, and for making `HrTimer` generic
over a `ClockSource`.

[PATCH v1 3/5] rust: time: Add HrTimerExpires trait

[FUJITA Tomonori]

Introduce the `HrTimerExpires` trait to represent types that can be
used as expiration values for high-resolution timers. Define a
required method, `as_nanos()`, which returns the expiration time as a
raw nanosecond value suitable for use with C's hrtimer APIs.

Also extend the `HrTimerMode` to use the `HrTimerExpires` trait.

This refactoring is a preparation for enabling hrtimer code to work
uniformly with both absolute and relative expiration modes.

[PATCH v1 4/5] rust: time: Make HasHrTimer generic over HrTimerMode

[FUJITA Tomonori]

Add a `TimerMode` associated type to the `HasHrTimer` trait to
represent the operational mode of the timer, such as absolute or
relative expiration.  This new type must implement the `HrTimerMode`
trait, which defines how expiration values are interpreted.

Update the `start()` method to accept an `expires` parameter of type
`<Self::TimerMode as HrTimerMode>::Expires` instead of the fixed `Ktime`.
This enables different timer modes to provide strongly typed expiration
values, such as `Instant<C>` or `Delta`.

The `impl_has_hr_timer` macro is also extended to allow specifying the
`HrTimerMode`. In the following example, it guarantees that the
`start()` method for `Foo` only accepts `Instant<Monotonic>`. Using a
`Delta` or an `Instant` with a different clock source will result in a
compile-time error:

struct Foo {
    #[pin]
    timer: HrTimer<Self>,

}

impl_has_hr_timer! {
    impl HasHrTimer<Self> for Foo {
        mode = AbsoluteMode<Monotonic>,
        self.timer
    }
}

This design eliminates runtime mismatches between expires types and
clock sources, and enables stronger type-level guarantees throughout
hrtimer.

[PATCH v1 5/5] rust: time: Remove Ktime in hrtimer

[FUJITA Tomonori]

Remove the use of `Ktime` from the hrtimer code, which was originally
introduced as a temporary workaround. The hrtimer has now been fully
converted to use the `Instant` and `Delta` types instead.

I think a macro is too much here. The code would be easier to read
without the macro, and the macro does not remove much code here.

Could you try to do the trait implementations without the macro?

For small values that can be freely copied, I actualy think that using

Besides best practice, the value will pass in a register. There is no
benefit at all from passing a reference here and no improved ergonomics
from using a reference.

How about:

  mode = $mode:ty,
  field = self.$field:ident

So that there is some sort of red line when calling this. We could also
consider adopting another syntax for association:

  mode: $mode:ty,
  field: self.$field:ident

or something else like `<-` or `->` ?

Yeah, but somehow I thought that using &self is more common practice
in Rust.

I'll drop this patch in the next version.

Something like the following, right? If so, I'll do in the next
version. I'm also fine with that way.

/// Timer that expires at a fixed point in time.
pub struct AbsoluteMode<C: ClockSource>(PhantomData<C>);

impl<C: ClockSource> HrTimerMode for AbsoluteMode<C> {
    const C_MODE: bindings::hrtimer_mode = bindings::hrtimer_mode_HRTIMER_MODE_ABS;

    type Clock = C;
    type Expires = Instant<C>;
}

instead of

define_hrtimer_mode! {
    /// Timer that expires at a fixed point in time.
    pub struct AbsoluteMode<C> {
        c = HRTIMER_MODE_ABS,
        expires = Instant<C>
    }
}

Looks fine too.

I personally prefer one of the two options above, but I'm also ok with
`<-` or `->`.

OK, let's go with struct initializer syntax then (:). We can always
change it later if someone has a different opinion.
