Subject: [PATCH 0/5] rust: time: Add clock read support
Date: Sun, 24 Mar 2024 15:33:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240324223339.971934-1-boqun.feng@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Thomas,

This is an updated version of:

	https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/Zf2kio8NYG5DEgyY@tardis/	

where I'm trying to provide the same functionality of Alice's patch:

	https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20240322-rust-ktime_ms_delta-v2-1-d98de1f7c282@google.com/

along with the lesson we learned from the previous discussion:

	https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20230221-gpu-up-time-v1-1-bf8fe74b7f55@asahilina.net/
	https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20230714-rust-time-v2-1-f5aed84218c4@asahilina.net/

There are three important types or traits (the design was mostly brought
from previous patches):

* Instant type: it's a generic type for timestamps, whose backend is
  just ktime_t, but it has a generic type to differentiate clocks.

* Clock trait: to read a clock, one must implement the `now` function,
  in this series, only CLOCK_MONOTONIC support is added.

* Duration type: it's a signed 64 bit value which represents the
  timedelta, I've considered making it unsigned, but I want the
  following code:

  	d = ts2 - ts1;
	ts = ts3 + d;

  to work even when ts2 < ts1, but I'm also OK to define it as an
  unsigned.

Let me know how you think about this.

Regards,
Boqun
