Subject: [PATCH 1/2] rust: sync: lock: allow fallible initializers in Lock::new
Date: Sat, 14 Nov 2026 22:07:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261114200703.33229-2-mbkchelofficialdev@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261114200703.33229-1-mbkchelofficialdev@gmail.com>
Currently Lock::new() only accepts an infallible initializer for the
protected data, because impl PinInit<T> defaults the error type to
Infallible. This prevents wrapping a fallible initializer, such as
Opaque::try_ffi_init(), in a Mutex or SpinLock.
Make Lock::new() generic over the error type E, so that it accepts any
impl PinInit<T, E> and returns impl PinInit<Self, E>. E must implement
From<Infallible>, since initializing the lock state itself cannot fail.
This is needed, for example, by the GPU buddy allocator, which has a
TODO to move its gpu_buddy structure inside the mutex.
