Subject: [PATCH 6/8] rust: io: add `read_val` and `write_val` function on I/O view
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2026 15:37:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260323153807.1360705-7-gary@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260323153807.1360705-1-gary@kernel.org>

From: Gary Guo <gary@garyguo.net>

When a view is narrowed to just a primitive, these functions provide a way
to access them using the `IoCapable` trait. This is used to provide
`io_read!` and `io_write!` macros, which are generalized version of current
`dma_read!` and `dma_write!` macro (that works on `Coherent` only, but not
subview of them, or other I/O backends).

For DMA coherent objects, `IoCapable` is only implemented for atomically
accessible primitives; this is because `read_volatile`/`write_volatile` can
behave undesirably for aggregates; LLVM may turn them to multiple
instructions to access parts and assemble, or could combine them to a
single instruction.

The ability to read/write aggregates (when atomicity is of no concern),
could be implemented with copying primitives (e.g. memcpy_{from,to}io) in
the future.
