[PATCH 0/4] rust: dma: tie DMA allocations to the device's bound lifetime
From: Danilo Krummrich
Date: Sun Aug 30 2026 - 15:39:16 EST
DMA allocations carry device resources (e.g. IOMMU mappings) that must not
outlive the device's bound lifetime. Add lifetime parameters to the DMA
allocation types (Coherent, CoherentBox, CoherentHandle) to enforce at compile
time that they are freed before the device is unbound.
Since DMA types with lifetime parameters are exposed through debugfs in the
nova-core driver, first drop the unnecessary T: 'static bound from the debugfs
ScopedDir file creation methods by formalizing a type invariant on FileOps.
