Subject: [PATCH v7 07/15] rust: init: add initialization macros
Message-ID: <20230408122429.1103522-8-y86-dev@protonmail.com>

Precedence: bulk

Add the following initializer macros:
- `#[pin_data]` to annotate structurally pinned fields of structs,
  needed for `pin_init!` and `try_pin_init!` to select the correct
  initializer of fields.
- `pin_init!` create a pin-initializer for a struct with the
  `Infallible` error type.
- `try_pin_init!` create a pin-initializer for a struct with a custom
  error type (`kernel::error::Error` is the default).
- `init!` create an in-place-initializer for a struct with the
  `Infallible` error type.
- `try_init!` create an in-place-initializer for a struct with a custom
  error type (`kernel::error::Error` is the default).

Also add their needed internal helper traits and structs.

s without the `pin`
 //! prefix.
 //!
+//! # Examples
+//!
+//! ## Using the [`pin_init!`] macro
+//!
+//! If you want to use [`PinInit`], then you will have to annotate your `s=
truct` with
+//! `#[`[`pin_data`]`]`. It is a macro that uses `#[pin]` as a marker for
+//! [structurally pinned fields]. After doing this, you can then create an=
 in-place constructor via
+//! [`pin_init!`]. The syntax is almost the same as normal `struct` initia=
lizers. The difference is
+//! that you need to write `<-` instead of `:` for fields that you want to=
 initialize in-place.
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! # #![allow(clippy::disallowed_names, clippy::new_ret_no_self)]
+//! use kernel::{prelude::*, sync::Mutex, new_mutex};
+//! # use core::pin::Pin;
+//! #[pin_data]
+//! struct Foo {
+//!     #[pin]
+//!     a: Mutex<usize>,
+//!     b: u32,
+//! }
+//!
+//! let foo =3D pin_init!(Foo {
+//!     a <- new_mutex!(42, "Foo::a"),
+//!     b: 24,
+//! });
+//! ```
+//!
+//! `foo` now is of the type [`impl PinInit<Foo>`]. We can now use any sma=
rt pointer that we like
+//! (or just the stack) to actually initialize a `Foo`:
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! # #![allow(clippy::disallowed_names, clippy::new_ret_no_self)]
+//! # use kernel::{prelude::*, sync::Mutex, new_mutex};
+//! # use core::pin::Pin;
+//! # #[pin_data]
+//! # struct Foo {
+//! #     #[pin]
+//! #     a: Mutex<usize>,
+//! #     b: u32,
+//! # }
+//! # let foo =3D pin_init!(Foo {
+//! #     a <- new_mutex!(42, "Foo::a"),
+//! #     b: 24,
+//! # });
+//! let foo: Result<Pin<Box<Foo>>> =3D Box::pin_init(foo);
+//! ```
+//!
+//! For more information see the [`pin_init!`] macro.
+//!
+//! ## Using a custom function/macro that returns an initializer
+//!
+//! Many types from the kernel supply a function/macro that returns an ini=
tializer, because the
+//! above method only works for types where you can access the fields.
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! # use kernel::{new_mutex, sync::{Arc, Mutex}};
+//! let mtx: Result<Arc<Mutex<usize>>> =3D Arc::pin_init(new_mutex!(42, "e=
xample::mtx"));
+//! ```
+//!
+//! To declare an init macro/function you just return an [`impl PinInit<T,=
 E>`]:
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! # #![allow(clippy::disallowed_names, clippy::new_ret_no_self)]
+//! # use kernel::{sync::Mutex, prelude::*, new_mutex, init::PinInit, try_=
pin_init};
+//! #[pin_data]

+//!     #[pin]
+//!     status: Mutex<i32>,
+//!     buffer: Box<[u8; 1_000_000]>,
+//! }
+//!
+//! impl DriverData {
+//!     fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self, Error> {
+//!         try_pin_init!(Self {
+//!             status <- new_mutex!(0, "DriverData::status"),
+//!             buffer: Box::init(kernel::init::zeroed())?,
+//!         })

+///
+/// Arbitrary Rust expressions can be used to set the value of a variable.
+///
+/// The fields are initialized in the order that they appear in the initia=
lizer. So it is possible

+///
+/// IMPORTANT: You are not allowed to create references to fields of the s=
truct inside of the
+/// initializer.
+///
+/// # Init-functions
+///
+/// When working with this API it is often desired to let others construct=
 your types without
+/// giving access to all fields. This is where you would normally write a =
plain function `new`
+/// that would return a new instance of your type. With this API that is a=
lso possible.
+/// However, there are a few extra things to keep in mind.
+///
+/// To create an initializer function, simply declare it like this:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// # #![allow(clippy::disallowed_names, clippy::new_ret_no_self)]
+/// # use kernel::{init, pin_init, prelude::*, init::*};
+/// # use core::pin::Pin;
+/// # #[pin_data]
+/// # struct Foo {
+/// #     a: usize,
+/// #     b: Bar,
+/// # }
+/// # #[pin_data]
+/// # struct Bar {
+/// #     x: u32,
+/// # }
+/// impl Foo {
+///     fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> {
+///         pin_init!(Self {
+///             a: 42,
+///             b: Bar {
+///                 x: 64,
+///             },
+///         })
+///     }
+/// }
+/// ```
+///
+/// Users of `Foo` can now create it like this:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// # #![allow(clippy::disallowed_names, clippy::new_ret_no_self)]
+/// # use kernel::{init, pin_init, macros::pin_data, init::*};
+/// # use core::pin::Pin;
+/// # #[pin_data]
+/// # struct Foo {
+/// #     a: usize,
+/// #     b: Bar,
+/// # }
+/// # #[pin_data]
+/// # struct Bar {
+/// #     x: u32,
+/// # }
+/// # impl Foo {
+/// #     fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> {
+/// #         pin_init!(Self {
+/// #             a: 42,
+/// #             b: Bar {
+/// #                 x: 64,
+/// #             },
+/// #         })
+/// #     }
+/// # }
+/// let foo =3D Box::pin_init(Foo::new());
+/// ```
+///
+/// They can also easily embed it into their own `struct`s:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// # #![allow(clippy::disallowed_names, clippy::new_ret_no_self)]
+/// # use kernel::{init, pin_init, macros::pin_data, init::*};
+/// # use core::pin::Pin;
+/// # #[pin_data]
+/// # struct Foo {
+/// #     a: usize,
+/// #     b: Bar,
+/// # }
+/// # #[pin_data]
+/// # struct Bar {
+/// #     x: u32,
+/// # }
+/// # impl Foo {
+/// #     fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> {
+/// #         pin_init!(Self {
+/// #             a: 42,
+/// #             b: Bar {
+/// #                 x: 64,
+/// #             },
+/// #         })
+/// #     }
+/// # }
+/// #[pin_data]
+/// struct FooContainer {
+///     #[pin]
+///     foo1: Foo,
+///     #[pin]
+///     foo2: Foo,
+///     other: u32,
+/// }
+///
+/// impl FooContainer {
+///     fn new(other: u32) -> impl PinInit<Self> {
+///         pin_init!(Self {
+///             foo1 <- Foo::new(),
+///             foo2 <- Foo::new(),
+///             other,
+///         })
+///     }
+/// }
+/// ```
+///
+/// Here we see that when using `pin_init!` with `PinInit`, one needs to w=
rite `<-` instead of `:`.
+/// This signifies that the given field is initialized in-place. As with `=
struct` initializers, just
+/// writing the field (in this case `other`) without `:` or `<-` means `ot=
her: other,`.
+///
+/// # Syntax
+///
+/// As already mentioned in the examples above, inside of `pin_init!` a `s=
truct` initializer with
+/// the following modifications is expected:
+/// - Fields that you want to initialize in-place have to use `<-` instead=
 of `:`.
+/// - In front of the initializer you can write `&this in` to have access =
to a [`NonNull<Self>`]
+///   pointer named `this` inside of the initializer.
+///
+/// For instance:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// # use kernel::pin_init;
+/// # use macros::pin_data;
+/// # use core::{ptr::addr_of_mut, marker::PhantomPinned};
+/// #[pin_data]
+/// struct Buf {
+///     // `ptr` points into `buf`.
+///     ptr: *mut u8,
+///     buf: [u8; 64],
+///     #[pin]
+///     pin: PhantomPinned,
+/// }
+/// pin_init!(&this in Buf {
+///     buf: [0; 64],
+///     ptr: unsafe { addr_of_mut!((*this.as_ptr()).buf).cast() },
+///     pin: PhantomPinned,

+
+//! This module provides the macros that actually implement the proc-macro=
s `pin_data` and
+//! `pinned_drop`.
+//!
+//! These macros should never be called directly, since they expect their =
input to be
+//! in a certain format which is internal. Use the proc-macros instead.
+//!
+//! This architecture has been chosen because the kernel does not yet have=
 access to `syn` which
+//! would make matters a lot easier for implementing these as proc-macros.
+//!
+//! # Macro expansion example
+//!
+//! This section is intended for readers trying to understand the macros i=
n this module and the
+//! `pin_init!` macros from `init.rs`.
+//!
+//! We will look at the following example:
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! # use kernel::init::*;
+//! #[pin_data]
+//! #[repr(C)]
+//! struct Bar<T> {
+//!     #[pin]
+//!     t: T,
+//!     pub x: usize,
+//! }
+//!
+//! impl<T> Bar<T> {
+//!     fn new(t: T) -> impl PinInit<Self> {
+//!         pin_init!(Self { t, x: 0 })
+//!     }
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! This example includes the most common and important features of the pi=
n-init API.
+//!
+//! Below you can find individual section about the different macro invoca=
tions. Here are some
+//! general things we need to take into account when designing macros:
+//! - use global paths, similarly to file paths, these start with the sepa=
rator: `::core::panic!()`
+//!   this ensures that the correct item is used, since users could define=
 their own `mod core {}`
+//!   and then their own `panic!` inside to execute arbitrary code inside =
of our macro.
+//! - macro `unsafe` hygene: we need to ensure that we do not expand arbit=
rary, user-supplied
+//!   expressions inside of an `unsafe` block in the macro, because this w=
ould allow users to do
+//!   `unsafe` operations without an associated `unsafe` block.
+//!
+//! ## `#[pin_data]` on `Bar`
+//!
+//! This macro is used to specify which fields are structurally pinned and=
 which fields are not. It
+//! is placed on the struct definition and allows `#[pin]` to be placed on=
 the fields.
+//!
+//! Here is the definition of `Bar` from our example:
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! # use kernel::init::*;
+//! #[pin_data]
+//! #[repr(C)]
+//! struct Bar<T> {
+//!     t: T,
+//!     pub x: usize,
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!
+//! This expands to the following code:
+//!
+//! ```rust
+//! // Firstly the normal definition of the struct, attributes are preserv=
ed:
+//! #[repr(C)]
+//! struct Bar<T> {
+//!     t: T,
+//!     pub x: usize,
+//! }
+//! // Then an anonymous constant is defined, this is because we do not wa=
nt any code to access the
+//! // types that we define inside:
+//! const _: () =3D {
+//!     // We define the pin-data carrying struct, it is a ZST and needs t=
o have the same generics,
+//!     // since we need to implement access functions for each field and =
thus need to know its
+//!     // type.
+//!     struct __ThePinData<T> {
+//!         __phantom: ::core::marker::PhantomData<fn(Bar<T>) -> Bar<T>>,
+//!     }
+//!     // We implement `Copy` for the pin-data struct, since all function=
s it defines will take
+//!     // `self` by value.
+//!     impl<T> ::core::clone::Clone for __ThePinData<T> {
+//!         fn clone(&self) -> Self {

+//!         }
+//!     }
+//!     impl<T> ::core::marker::Copy for __ThePinData<T> {}
+//!     // For every field of `Bar`, the pin-data struct will define a fun=
ction with the same name
+//!     // and accessor (`pub` or `pub(crate)` etc.). This function will t=
ake a pointer to the
+//!     // field (`slot`) and a `PinInit` or `Init` depending on the proje=
ction kind of the field
+//!     // (if pinning is structural for the field, then `PinInit` otherwi=
se `Init`).

this struct is invariant
+//!     //   over it. The lifetime is needed to work around the limitation=
 that trait bounds must
+//!     //   not be trivial, e.g. the user has a `#[pin] PhantomPinned` fi=
eld -- this is

+//! ## `pin_init!` in `impl Bar`
+//!
+//! This macro creates an pin-initializer for the given struct. It require=
s that the struct is

+//! impl<T> Bar<T> {

+//!         pin_init!(Self { t, x: 0 })
+//!     }
+//! }
+//! ```
+//!

+//!
+//! ```rust

+//!     fn new(t: T) -> impl PinInit<Self> {

the attributes of each
