Subject: [PATCH v4 1/9] rust: module: move module types into `module.rs`
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 14:29:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623-fix-fops-owner-v4-1-0daf5f077d5c@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260623-fix-fops-owner-v4-0-0daf5f077d5c@linux.dev>
Move `Module`, `InPlaceModule`, `ModuleMetadata` and `ThisModule` from
`lib.rs` into a new `rust/kernel/module.rs`. Re-export them from `lib.rs`
to avoid tree-wide changes.
Switch six bus driver registrations from `module.0` to the public
`ThisModule::as_ptr()` accessor, since the field is no longer visible
outside the new `module` submodule.
No functional change.
Signed-off-by: Alvin Sun <alvin.sun@linux.dev>
