[PATCH 6.6 136/166] rust: init: fix `Zeroable` implementation for `Option<NonNull<T>>` and `Option<KBox<T>>`

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

 



6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Benno Lossin <benno.lossin@xxxxxxxxx>

commit df27cef153603b18a7d094b53cc3d5264ff32797 upstream.

According to [1], `NonNull<T>` and `#[repr(transparent)]` wrapper types
such as our custom `KBox<T>` have the null pointer optimization only if
`T: Sized`. Thus remove the `Zeroable` implementation for the unsized
case.
