Subject: [PATCH RFC v3 6/6] samples/rust: Add sample virtio-rtc driver [WIP]
Date: Sun, 10 May 2026 16:38:19 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260510-rust-virtio-v3-6-1427f14d67e1@pitsidianak.is> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260510-rust-virtio-v3-0-1427f14d67e1@pitsidianak.is>
While the driver queries clocks and capabilities for each clock, it
doesn't actually register them yet (TODO).
Until I implement missing functionality, there is some dead code and
some missing SAFETY comments.
