[PATCH v10 12/27] rust: add `kernel` crate

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Wedson Almeida Filho <wedsonaf@xxxxxxxxxx>

The `kernel` crate currently includes all the abstractions that wrap
kernel features written in C.

These abstractions call the C side of the kernel via the generated
bindings with the `bindgen` tool. Modules developed in Rust should
never call the bindings themselves.

In the future, as the abstractions grow in number, we may need
to split this crate into several, possibly following a similar
subdivision in subsystems as the kernel itself and/or moving
the code to the actual subsystems.
