Subject: [PATCH 4/4] rust: lock: Add a Pin<&mut T> accessor
Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2025 11:12:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250919091241.32138-5-boqun.feng@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250919091241.32138-1-boqun.feng@gmail.com>

From: Daniel Almeida <daniel.almeida@collabora.com>

In order for callers to be able to access the inner T safely if T:
!Unpin, there needs to be a way to get a Pin<&mut T>. Add this accessor
and a corresponding example to tell users how it works.

This requires the pin projection functionality [1] for better ergonomic.
