[PATCH v3 15/25] rust: alloc: implement kernel `Vec` type

From: Danilo Krummrich
Date: Wed Jul 31 2024 - 20:11:42 EST


`Vec` provides a contiguous growable array type (such as `Vec`) with
contents allocated with the kernel's allocators (e.g. `Kmalloc`,
`Vmalloc` or `KVmalloc`).

In contrast to Rust's `Vec` type, the kernel `Vec` type considers the
kernel's GFP flags for all appropriate functions, always reports
allocation failures through `Result<_, AllocError>` and remains
independent from unstable features.

+/// For zero-sized types the [`Vec`]'s pointer must be `dangling_mut::<T>`; no memory is allocated.
+///
+/// Generally, [`Vec`] consists of a pointer that represents the vector's backing buffer, the

+/// (the number of elements that are currently stored in the vector) and the `Allocator` used to

+/// are added to the vector.

+///
+/// The [`Vec`] backing buffer's pointer always properly aligned and either points to memory
+/// allocated with `A` or, for zero-sized types, is a dangling pointer.
+///
+/// The length of the vector always represents the exact number of elements stored in the vector.
+///
+/// The capacity of the vector always represents the absolute number of elements that can be stored
+/// within the vector without re-allocation. However, it is legal for the backing buffer to be
+/// larger than `size_of<T>` times the capacity.
