Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] rust: math: add signed division and remainder helpers
Date: Sat, 17 Oct 2026 19:11:34 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261017111134.22546-4-chenhan0017.work@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261017111134.22546-1-chenhan0017.work@gmail.com>

Delta's division and remainder implementations operate on integers and
do not depend on time units. Move them into a math module to provide a
common home for arithmetic helpers, with Delta as the initial user.

Expose div64_s64() and rem_s64() so driver crates can use these operations
without constructing time values. The division helper takes two i64
operands; the remainder helper takes an i64 dividend and an i32 divisor
and returns an i64. Both keep Rust's signed operator semantics, including
the unconditional panic checks, and use the existing C helpers on 32-bit.

Keep the Delta API and its panic documentation unchanged. This is separate
from the preceding behavior fix so that introducing the math module is
not required for a backport.
