Subject: [PATCH v3 1/4] rust: add num module and Integer trait
Date: Thu, 06 Nov 2025 16:07:13 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251106-bounded_ints-v3-1-47104986a5c3@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251106-bounded_ints-v3-0-47104986a5c3@nvidia.com>
Introduce the `num` module, which will provide numerical extensions and
utilities for the kernel.
For now, introduce the `Integer` trait, which is implemented for all
primitive integer types to provides their core properties to generic
code.
