[PATCH v2] rust: add new macro for common bitmap operations

[PATCH v2] rust: add new macro for common bitmap operations

[Filipe Xavier]

We have seen a proliferation of mod_whatever::foo::Flags
being defined with essentially the same implementation
for BitAnd, BitOr, contains and etc.

This macro aims to bring a solution for this,
allowing to generate these methods for user-defined structs.
With some use cases in KMS and VideoCodecs.

Small use sample:
`
const READ: Permission = Permission(1 << 0);
const WRITE: Permission = Permission(1 << 1);

impl_flags!(Permissions, Permission, u32);

let read_write = Permissions::from(READ) | WRITE;
let read_only = read_write & READ;
`

Changes in v2:
- rename: change macro and file name to impl_flags.
- negation sign: change char for negation to `!`. 
- transpose docs: add support to transpose user provided docs.
- visibility: add support to use user defined visibility.
- operations: add new operations for flag, 
to support use between bit and bitmap, eg: flag & flags.
- code style: small fixes to remove warnings.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250304-feat-add-bitmask-macro-v1-1-1c2d2bcb476b@gmail.com

Please use absolute paths to refer to items, in this case
`::core::convert::From` (note the leading `::`). More cases below.

I filed an issue to add a new clippy lint to catch this:

Hi Filipe, just a few comments for now:

There is no one working on Rust support for video codecs as of today, please say
“upcoming GPU drivers” instead.

Not really sure we need this in the commit message as we already have
the examples section, which doubles as a kunit test.

At best, this will become stale and a source of errors.

We need to move away from this syntax. Can you please update the example? :)

I see that you’ve already taken care of writing the code to make it work, so it’s just the
example that needs to be updated.

Sorry this took me a while to get back to, last week was a bit hectic. I
realized there's a couple of changes we still need to make here (in addition
to the other ones mentioned on the mailing list):

So we might want to make sure we have one of the other rfl folks look at this
first but: ideally I'd like to be able to the type for an individual bitflag
like this:

/// An enumerator representing a single flag in [`PlaneCommitFlags`].
///
/// This is a non-exhaustive list, as the C side could add more later.
#[derive(Copy, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]
#[repr(u32)]
#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum PlaneCommitFlag {
    /// Don't notify applications of plane updates for newly-disabled planes. Drivers are encouraged
    /// to set this flag by default, as otherwise they need to ignore plane updates for disabled
    /// planes by hand.
    ActiveOnly = (1 << 0),
    /// Tell the DRM core that the display hardware requires that a [`Crtc`]'s planes must be
    /// disabled when the [`Crtc`] is disabled. When not specified,
    /// [`AtomicCommitTail::commit_planes`] will skip the atomic disable callbacks for a plane if
    /// the [`Crtc`] in the old [`PlaneState`] needs a modesetting operation. It is still up to the
    /// driver to disable said planes in their [`DriverCrtc::atomic_disable`] callback.
    NoDisableAfterModeset = (1 << 1),
}

It seems like we can pass through docs just fine, but could we get something
to handle specifying actual discriminant values for the flag enum as well?

This should be possible, as the bitflags crate lets you do that in userspace. Their syntax is a bit different than what
we currently have in `impl_flags` though.

Re: [PATCH v2] rust: add new macro for common bitmap operations

[Lyude Paul]

Yeah - IMO it would be a pretty good idea, since this was one of the original
motivations that I had when I had showed filipe some of the examples I
imagined of this. Especially since as well this provides a very nice way of
being able to document various bitflag values.
