Subject: [PATCH v6 02/20] rust: io: add missing safety requirement in `IoCapable` methods
Date: Mon, 06 Jul 2026 13:44:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706-io_projection-v6-2-72cd5d055d54@garyguo.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260706-io_projection-v6-0-72cd5d055d54@garyguo.net>

The current safety comment on `io_read`/`io_write` does not cover the topic
about alignment. Add it so it can be relied on by implementor of
`IoCapable`.

Expand the check performed by `Io` by taking `self.addr()` into
consideration when checking if `offset` is aligned. For the compile-time
`io_addr_assert` check, check using the known minimum alignment of
`Io::Target` and the accessed type.

While at it, fix the alignment check to use `align_of` instead of
`size_of`. The values match for all primitives (including u64, given that
we do not provide u64 accessor on 32-bit platforms), but are not
necessarily true for custom types.
