[PATCH v3 0/5] rust: samples: add an EDU PCI driver sample (MMIO + IRQ + DMA)
From: Maurice Hieronymus
Date: Wed Aug 12 2026 - 15:58:12 EST
The Rust sample drivers currently exercise PCI facilities in isolation:
rust_driver_pci covers MMIO and rust_dma covers DMA, but there is no
single in-tree example that combines memory-mapped I/O, interrupts and
DMA in one driver.
This series adds one. It targets QEMU's `edu` device -- a small,
well-documented educational PCI device that supports exactly these three
facilities and ships with any recent QEMU (`-device edu`), so the sample
runs without special hardware.
The sample maps BAR0, reads the PCI configuration space, and runs a set
of MMIO self-tests (identification, liveness, factorial), allocates an
MSI vector and registers an IRQ handler, and performs a DMA round-trip
-- each stage waiting on a Completion that the IRQ handler signals.
As requested by Danilo in the v2 review, the sample replaces
rust_driver_pci, which it covers a superset of; the removal is the
first patch.
Prerequisites, that had to be implemented:
- pci: rework the device enabling API: replace enable_device_mem()
with enable_device(), which returns a DeviceEnableGuard that
disables the device again on drop, so the enable count stays
balanced across unbind/rebind. This follows the design Danilo
proposed in the review of the standalone patch [1], which this
series absorbs.
- pci: make Vendor::from_raw() public, so a driver can match a device
whose vendor ID has no symbolic name in pci_ids.h (QEMU's 0x1234),
matching what C drivers already do.
- completion: add complete(), so a single Completion can be reused to
wait for consecutive events (e.g. back-to-back DMA transfers).
The series is based on rust/rust-next and additionally depends on
Danilo's "rust: irq: make Registration compatible with lifetime-bound
drivers" [2], currently in linux-next.
Note: DeviceEnableGuard drops from a bound scope, so pci_disable_device()
can race the pci_dev bitfield word as discussed in [1]; that race
predates this series and is triggerable from sysfs today. The bitops
conversion is under way separately on linux-pci [3].
Tested with QEMU `-device edu`;

Changes in v3:
- Absorb the device enabling rework [1] into this series, redesigned
around DeviceEnableGuard as proposed by Danilo; convert nova-core.
- Remove rust_driver_pci, replaced by this sample (Danilo).
- Add access to PCI configuration space (Danilo).
- Rebase on rust/rust-next on top of Danilo's irq Registration rework
[2]; register the handler via pci::Device::request_irq().
- Use vertical import style.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260620-b4-rust-pci-edu-driver-v2-0-6fd6684f2c14@xxxxxxxxxxx
Changes in v2:
- pci: Vendor::from_raw(): collected Reviewed-by from Gary Guo;
wrapped code identifiers in the commit message in backticks (Gary).
- pci: enable_device(): collected Reviewed-by from Fiona Behrens;
made enable_device_mem() #[inline] and added a cross-reference to
enable_device() in its docs (Fiona).
- completion: complete(): tightened the doc comment per Gary's review
(emphasise "single", drop the internal-counter detail, drop the
complete_all comparison).
- samples/edu: take &EduDriverData instead of &Arc<EduDriverData> in
init()/test_irq()/test_dma() (Ewan Chorynski).
- samples/edu: simplify wait_until_compute_has_finished() to forward
read_poll_timeout()'s error via inspect_err() instead of returning a
hard-coded ETIMEDOUT (Ewan Chorynski / Miguel Ojeda).
- samples/edu: Rebased on rust/rust-next and adapt to the updated
pci::Bar / device::Core lifetimes and pci::Driver::Data<'bound>, and
obtain the BAR via into_devres().
