From: Boqun Feng
Date: Fri Jul 18 2025 - 23:09:18 EST


Hi all,

This is the v8 of LKMM atomics in Rust, you can find the previous
versions at:

v7: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20250714053656.66712-1-boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx/
v6: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20250710060052.11955-1-boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx/
v5: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20250618164934.19817-1-boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx/
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20250609224615.27061-1-boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx/
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20250421164221.1121805-1-boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20241101060237.1185533-1-boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20240612223025.1158537-1-boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx/
wip: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20240322233838.868874-1-boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx/

Changes since v7:

- A lot of trait renaming per the suggestion of Benno.
- Add new internal type `AtomicRepr<T>` to make Atomc*Ops function safe.
- Rename atomic/ops.rs => atomic/internal.rs per the suggestion of
Benno.
- Move `Atomic<T>`, `AtomicType` and `AtomicAdd` into atomic.rs.
- Remove atomic/generic.rs and move `impl AtomciType for {i,u}{32, 64,
size}` blocks and the tests into a new atomic/predefine.rs file.
- Make `internal` not public, except that `AtomicImpl` is public.
- Other minor documentation improvememt.

Regards,
Boqun
