[PATCH v11 2/8] mm: rust: add vm_area_struct methods that require read access
From: Alice Ryhl
Date: Wed Dec 11 2024 - 05:38:03 EST
This adds a type called VmAreaRef which is used when referencing a vma
that you have read access to. Here, read access means that you hold
either the mmap read lock or the vma read lock (or stronger).
Additionally, a vma_lookup method is added to the mmap read guard, which
enables you to obtain a &VmAreaRef in safe Rust code.
This patch only provides a way to lock the mmap read lock, but a
follow-up patch also provides a way to just lock the vma read lock.
