This being said though, I actually don't think this approach is right even for rust. I actually think the correctness enforcement we get wi= th the IrqDisabled tokens is the way to go. It's not just about enable/disable= , it's also about making sure that we don't allow Guards for interrupt-disabl= ed spinlocks to exit said contexts. I don't see how we could reasonably implem= ent this without using tokens and having a closure interface - and that's absolutely losing a benefit of rust. If we can check this stuff during comp= ile time, we should. >=20 > Regards, > Boqun >=20 > > Then you work from there and go the extra mile to create some creative > > workarounds at the abstraction level instead of trying to mimic the > > existing C nonsense. > >=20 > > Which in turn gives you a way cleaner pattern of implementing stuff in > > rust. > >=20 > > Stop worrying about mostly irrelevant low level details which are not > > relevant to the primary audience of rust adoption.
