3  * Non-trivial C macros cannot be used in Rust. Similarly, inlined C functions
4  * cannot be called either. This file explicitly creates functions ("helpers")
5  * that wrap those so that they can be called from Rust.
6  *
7  * Even though Rust kernel modules should never use directly the bindings, some
8  * of these helpers need to be exported because Rust generics and inlined
9  * functions may not get their code generated in the crate where they are
10  * defined. Other helpers, called from non-inline functions, may not be
11  * exported, in principle. However, in general, the Rust compiler does not
12  * guarantee codegen will be performed for a non-inline function either.
13  * Therefore, this file exports all the helpers. In the future, this may be
14  * revisited to reduce the number of exports after the compiler is informed
15  * about the places codegen is required.
16  *
17  * All symbols are exported as GPL-only to guarantee no GPL-only feature is
18  * accidentally exposed.

50  * We use `bindgen`'s `--size_t-is-usize` option to bind the C `size_t` type
51  * as the Rust `usize` type, so we can use it in contexts where Rust
52  * expects a `usize` like slice (array) indices. `usize` is defined to be
53  * the same as C's `uintptr_t` type (can hold any pointer) but not
54  * necessarily the same as `size_t` (can hold the size of any single
55  * object). Most modern platforms use the same concrete integer type for
56  * both of them, but in case we find ourselves on a platform where
57  * that's not true, fail early instead of risking ABI or
58  * integer-overflow issues.
59  *
60  * If your platform fails this assertion, it means that you are in
61  * danger of integer-overflow bugs (even if you attempt to remove
62  * `--size_t-is-usize`). It may be easiest to change the kernel ABI on
63  * your platform such that `size_t` matches `uintptr_t` (i.e., to increase
64  * `size_t`, because `uintptr_t` has to be at least as big as `size_t`).
