Subject: [PATCH v7 4/7] rust: hrtimer: Add HrTimerCallbackContext and ::forward()
Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2025 18:42:19 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250813224240.3799325-5-lyude@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250813224240.3799325-1-lyude@redhat.com>

With Linux's hrtimer API, there's a number of methods that can only be
called in two situations:

* When we have exclusive access to the hrtimer and it is not currently
  active
* When we're within the context of an hrtimer callback context

This commit handles the second situation and implements hrtimer_forward()
support in the context of a timer callback. We do this by introducing a
HrTimerCallbackContext type which is provided to users during the
RawHrTimerCallback::run() callback, and then add a forward() function to
the type.

V2:
* Improve SAFETY comments for HrTimerCallbackContext uses (I forgot to
  mention that we're within RawHrTimerCallback::run()
* Split forward into forward() and raw_forward() since we're going to have
  two contexts that we can call forward() from now.
* Clarify contexts in which certain hrtimer methods can be called.
* Make sure that we use a mutable reference for forward() here - just in
  case :).
* Rename interval to duration
V3:
* Rename duration -back- to interval (now that I actually have read
  hrtimer_forward's source, interval does make more sense than duration
  considering the fact we return the number of overruns that occurred
  according to the given interval).
* Rewrite documentation a bit (re: Andreas)
V5:
* Fix unbounded T on HrTimerCallbackContext
V6:
* Move reference to HrTimerCallbackContext::forward() in HrTimer::forward()
  comments into this commit so rustdoc doesn't fail.
* Deduplicate documentation for HrTimerCallbackContext::forward()
* Add missing changelog note
