Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] rust: helpers: add workqueue helpers
Date: Fri, 03 Apr 2026 16:37:05 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260403-workqueue-v3-final-v3-1-6ffc3950d804@multicorewareinc.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260403-workqueue-v3-final-v3-0-6ffc3950d804@multicorewareinc.com>
From: Aakash Bollineni <aakash.bollineni@multicorewareinc.com>
Add C-helpers to bridge the Rust workqueue abstraction with the
kernel's C workqueue macros. These helpers wrap core workqueue
functions that are either inline or macros in C, making them
accessible to Rust FFI.
New wrappers:
- rust_helper_work_pending(): Wraps work_pending().
- rust_helper_cancel_work_sync(): Wraps cancel_work_sync().
- rust_helper_cancel_delayed_work_sync(): Wraps cancel_delayed_work_sync().
- rust_helper_init_delayed_work(): Performs robust initialization of
a delayed_work structure, ensuring the correct timer function
(delayed_work_timer_fn) and lockdep maps are initialized using
standard kernel macros.
These helpers are essential for supporting safe cancellation and
correct DelayedWork lifecycle management in the Rust workqueue API.
